April Minor League Update
Good morning to everyone! Yesterday I took a look at all of the guys who played for the Twins in April and gave them a letter grade. A quick breakdown shows us that I gave out eight A's, three B's, five C's, six D's and five F's. And I am generally considered a nice grader! It was a rough month for the big club. Today, I will be discussing the Twins Minor Leaguers. Now, I am not going to give grades for each Twins minor league player. I mean, that would be over 100 grades! Not going to happen. But today what I will do is count down the Top 5 Twins Hitters and Pitchers in the month of April. Each list will lead to the SethSpeaks Hitter and Pitcher of the Month. Following those announcements, I will post several additional thoughts on some of the players throughout the Twins minor league system.
I hope you enjoy this and learning more about the goings on in the Twins system. Should the Twins fall further out of the race over the next month, many of these names may become much more prevalent. I mean, some may be traded for more players. Others may continue to rise up the organizational ladder and maybe get some time with the Twins. So, although most only care about the major league Minnesota Twins, I feel it is very important (and fun) to know what is happening at the lower levels.
So please, feel free to leave some comments or send me an e-mail with any thoughts that you may have. Let's get started (Note - Stats are only for April)
#5 - Caleb Moore - Catcher - Beloit Snappers
In 19 games, the 2005 draftee from Eastern Tennessee State University is hitting .352/.410/.437 with four doubles, a triple and eight RBI.
#4 - Denard Span - Outfielder - New Britain Rockcats
In the season's first 20 games, the 2002 first round pick hit .338/.398/.400 with two doubles, a homer, four RBI and three stolen bases. He showed that his success at AA last year was not a fluke and that he may be on track to be in the Twins outfield in 2007.
#3 - Erik Lis - 1B/Outfield - Beloit Snappers
Another pick from the 2005 draft with the Snappers, Lis hit .284/.361/.554 with eight doubles, four homers and 12 RBI. He has just mashed the ball which is impressive as he learns to play the outfield too.
#2 - Matt Moses - Third Base - New Britain Rockcats
There was some concern about Moses because after he was called up to New Britain last year, he really struggled. However, the Twins top 2003 draft pick has started this season hot with the bat. In 18 games, he hit .318/.370/.515 with four doubles, three homers and nine RBI.
The SethSpeaks April Player of the Month is... (drum roll please)
# 1 - Josh Rabe - Outfield - Rochester Red Wings
Some may think I'm showing some bias in this selection because Josh Rabe was kind enough to do a Q&A for this site last week. Just look at the numbers. In 21 games, he hit .367/.452/.481 with six doubles, a game-winning homer, ten RBI and three stolen bases.
#5 - Danny Powers - Reliever - Beloit Snappers
Certainly the least known name on this list, Powers was another 2005 draft pick of the Twins. He is pitching out of the Snappers bullpen, but pitching a lot. He has thrown 21 innings in nine appearances. He is 1-0 with a 0.43 ERA and two saves. He has struck out 20 and walked just four. His WHIP is 0.95. Great month!
#4 - Pat Neshek - Reliever - Rochester Red Wings
Neshek may have had back-to-back rough outings against Scott Thorman and the Richmond Braves, but his strikeout rate alone puts him on this list. The side-winding righty was the Twins 6th round pick in 2002 out of Butler. He is the closer at Rochester and was 1-1 with a 2.40 ERA and 3 saves in April. In 15 innings, he has a remarkable 30 strikeouts against just six walks. Neshek is ready to help the Twins.
#3 - Adam Harben - Starter - New Britain Rockcats
0.42. That is the "big" number. Harben was added to the Twins 40 man roster in the offseason after a solid 2005 in Ft. Myers. Of all of the big pitching prospects in New Britain, Harben got off to the best start. He has made four starts (and pitched one inning in relief in another game) and thrown 21.1 innings. He is 0-0 with that 0.42 ERA. He has walked ten, something that has been his lone problem in the past, and struck out just 13. He has kept the ball in the ball park and has a WHIP of just 0.98.
#2 - Kevin Slowey - Starter - Ft. Myers Miracle
How impressive must #1 be if Slowey ranks #2 this month. The 2005 second round pick from Winthrop went 1-0 with a 1.53 ERA. In five games started, he has thrown 29.1 innings. He has struck out 34 hitters and walked just two! His WHIP is just 0.68. There is nothing to not like about Slowey and a call up to New Britain should occur by about midseason.
The SethSpeaks April Pitcher of the Month is... (drum roll please)
# 1 - Matt Garza - Starter - Ft. Myers Miracle
There are so many very good pitching prospects in the Florida State League and Matt Garza may be the best. In April, he went 3-0 with a 0.74 EAR in five starts. In 24.1 innings, he gave up just 15 hits and six walks while striking out 34 hitters. His WHIP was just 0.86. Garza is the hard thrower. Slowey is a control artist. Between the two, the Miracle has an incredible 1-2 punch at the top of their rotation. Of course, the question becomes "For how long?"
So there you have it. The April SethSpeaks hitter and pitcher of the month along with some other very worthy candidates. Of course, I could have commented on several others too without feeling like I was hurting the list. The Twins system is solid, and very well represented in the ten names above.
The following is more notes on the Twins minor league prospects:
Of course, many Twins fans may first want to know how Jason Bartlett and Jason Kubel are doing at Rochester. The answer for both is "very well." Bartlett started at SS in 20 games and hit .300/.330/.475 (in 80 at bats) with nine doubles, a triple, a homer and 12 RBI. No word on how his "leadership skills" are coming along though. Jason Kubel started with the Twins and was demoted to Rochester after two weeks. He has batted third in the Red Wings order and in 39 at bats (9 games) he hit .342/.409/.553 with three doubles, a triple, a homer and five RBI.
What about some of the veteran-types the we saw in Minnesota last year? Well, Jason Tyner got off to a slow start. He had 72 at bats and hit .236/.291/.292 for the month. Glenn Williams has been even worse. In just 39 at bats, he is hitting just .154/.283/.333. He had 12 strikeouts. Terry Tiffee is playing every day, mainly at 3B, and in 85 at bats, he hit .294/.315/.376 with four doubles, a homer and 12 RBI. Finally, Chris Heintz is playing about half the time, but in 41 at bats, he hit .366/.409/.415.
The toughest man to leave off of the Top 5 pitchers list for April was Boof Bonser. The righty went 2-1 with a 1.52 ERA in April. He had 26 strikeouts in 29.2 innings. The 12 walks was high, but Bonser does appear to have a big league future.
Kevin Cameron was invited to major league spring training this year because of the WBC and the fact that he came to Ft. Myers early to work out. Terry Ryan came up to him and asked if he would attend camp. Of course, Cameron said yes, and he had a very strong camp. In April, he went 3-0 with a 1.93 ERA.
Alex Romero is in the midst of his annual slow start. He hit just .192 in eight games at Rochester before being sent back to New Britain when Kubel was sent down. There, he is hitting just .250 in his seven games there.
Moses and Span are the only Rockcats hitters who hit over .273 in April.
Danny Matienzo and Doug Deeds were both AA All-Stars last year for the Rockcats. For one reason or another, both found themselves back with New Britain this year. Both got off to very slow starts. Matienzo hit just .217/.270/.319 while Deeds hit .206/.306/.444. Eight of Deeds' 13 hits went for extra bases.
You all know that Trent Oeltjen is one of my favorite Twins prospects to watch, has been the last two years. He is with the Rockcats, and in just 35 at bats, he is hitting .229. However, he is getting on base at a .386 clip, which is very impressive.
Justin Jones is 2-1 with a 2.61 ERA. In 20.2 innings, he has 24 strikeouts.
Glen Perkins went 0-2, but his ERA was just 1.76 and his WHIP was 0.98. He also struck out 19 in 15.1 innings.
There have been a couple of great stories already in the Twins system. The best may be that of Ft. Myers OF Garrett Guzman. He is hitting .300/.337/.389 with two homers and 17 RBI. Great numbers, but when you consider that he missed all of last season after a near-fatal car accident 18 months ago, it is remarkable. Also, after missing all but a couple of innings last year after Tommy John Surgery, Bobby Korecky is back with New Britain. Frank Mata had Tommy John surgery last year too, and he is back and pitching for Beloit. Now, we just need to get 2004 draft pick Matt Fox onto a roster and see what he can do.
Alexi Casilla was almost on the Top 5 hitters list. He is the 2B that the Twins acquired from the Angels for JC Romero. He hit .286/.320/.418 for the month, but he led the Miracle in many offensive categories including hits, runs, doubles and stolen bases.
Jeremy Pickrel had an incredible six triples in April. With his speed and power combo, it would be good if he could cut down on his 29 strikeouts in 72 at bat pace.
Trevor Plouffe hit just .265 for the Miracle. However, his OBP was .402 due to his 18 walks.
Beloit's Tarrence Patterson doesn't get talked about much, but he is an outfielder and the Snappers leadoff hitter. He got off to a .304/.337/.342 start to the season. He also leads the team with six stolen bases.
2005 supplemental 1st round pick Henry Sanchez struck out 29 times in 75 plate appearances. He hit two homers in the season's first week, but none since.
Without doing any research, Beloit has to be one of the youngest teams in the Midwest League. Sanchez, Paul Kelly and Drew Thompson were all high draft picks out of high school in the 2005 draft. Allan de San Miguel just recently turned 18. This is a young team full of talent.
Are there any other thoughts that I missed or should have pointed out. Feel free to send me any notes or tidbits on any of the players. Feel free to discuss below in the comments or send me an e-mail.
The Twins got another win last night; 6-1 over the Royals. All of the Brad Radke Bashers are going to have to take a couple of days off as Radke returned to form last night with a solid seven inning performance. He gave up only a 7th inning solo homer to Matt Stairs. Just four hits, no walks and he even struck out seven. Now, the obvious retort is to say that it was against the Royals, and that certainly is true. However, because Radke is not a fire baller, control is still a must for him against bad teams because they can still hit mistakes in the strike zone. SO, I think it was a great start for Radke, and maybe it was just what Brad needed to turn it around.
I suppose if I'm not going to allow any Radke bashing, I will have to withhold comment on Torii Hunter since he hit a home runs last night, right? That's fair, I can do that. I won't say anything about that .196 batting average.
Francisco Liriano is a stud! Last night, two innings, three strikeouts. Dominance!
I feel bad for Joe Mays. He always seemed like a good, intense competitor, but he just never came back from his injury with any 'stuff' in his arsenal. Of course, of the six runs he gave up last night in 3.1 innings, just two of them were earned.
The only Twins player not to have a hit last night was Justin Morneau who did have some good at bats last night.
Another other thoughts on the game? tonight, it is Carlos Silva taking the mound against lefty Jeremy Affeldt. Can Silva put up a strong start? Will the Twins be able to hit Affeldt who they have struggled with in the past (when he is healthy)?
Do you have any thoughts on the Twins, the Royals, or anything else? If so, send me an e-mail, or post some Comments below.
SethSpeaks Player of the Day - Deacon Burns, Ft. Myers Miracle
SethSpeaks Pitcher of the Day - Matt Garza, Ft. Myers Miracle
If you have any thoughts on the Twins system, please e-mail me.
Wednesday - Red Wings 3, Ottawa 5 – Josh Rabe just continues to hit well. Last night, he was 2-4. Andres Torres hit a 3-run homer in the 8th to put the team back in the game, but it was not enough. Henry Bonilla got the start for the Red Wings. He went 5.1 innings and gave up three runs on four hits and a walk. Ricky Barrett went the next 2.2 innings, allowing just one run. Kevin Cameron gave up a run on a hit and two walks in the 9th.
Wednesday - Rockcats , Harrisburg – Game Rained Out.
Wednesday - Miracle 3, Lakeland 1 – Matt Garza was on the mound for the Miracle which pretty much means Game Off for the opponent. The SethSpeaks Pitcher of the Month gave up just a run on three hits over seven innings. He struck out six to improve to 4-0 and drop his ERA to 0.86. Danny Powers, who deserved much consideration for the award, threw two scoreless innings in relief. Alexi Casilla and Jeremy Pickrel were both 2-4. Casilla stole his ninth base. Deacon Burns and Korey Feiner were each 2-3. Burns hit a triple.
Wednesday - Snappers – No Games scheduled in the Midwest League.
Do you have any further thoughts on any Twins prospects, minor leaguers, or these summaries? I would love any input, or ideas to make it better. Thanks! E-mail me, or also feel free to leave comments below.
As I expected, Paris Bennett spent her final night as a contestant on the show. I was somewhat surprised that Elliot Yamin had the second lowest vote total. However, he did a poor job on On Broadway and then as well as he did in his second song, it was boring, and that matters. He could be next to go. I guess we'll find out what type of music they will be singing and on Tuesday, we will find out how the Final Four will do!
Let me know what you think. Send me an e-mail, or let's talk about it in the Comments here. That is it for today and for the week!

Before we begin, let's start with the Flash apologists. Whenever I say "Flash sucks" somebody points out that it doesn't, but that some Flash developers truly suck and don't know how to use it properly.
It is a fair point, however agencies / developers that build websites for their clients must understand the limitations of Flash, and build primarily for the needs of their client's visitors, and business needs, rather than for their own egos.
But what happens when these agencies build Flash websites for themselves? Badness happens, that's what. At least in my opinion. I'm sure I'll hear otherwise, but from my perspective I can rarely see the point of using Flash as the basis for a website. And while I'm all for rich media, and immersive user experiences, I think agencies should know better...

Little more than a decade ago, you were hot stuff if you called yourself an "HTML programmer". HTML as a markup language is great at what it was designed to do but today's web is about rich internet applications.
RIA technologies such as Flash, Silverlight and JavaFX do what HTML can't. But HTML 5 could change that and lately, this has some asking the question: could HTML 5 make RIA technologies like Flash obsolete?

River Island is one of the only high street retailers which hasn't significantly improved its e-commerce offering over the past couple of years, and still retains an all-Flash website.
I have been wondering for a while when River Island would look to improve the site, and Paul Rouke of PRWD has a few answers after attending a Q&A with CEO Richard Bradbury last night.

Although I already used up all of it and it's been a while since I purchased it I have to review this product because I think it is the best foundation out there (at least for those of us that have dry/combination skin) I purchased mine at Lord & Taylor and the makeup artist was able to find the perfect match for me. It goes on flawless, even with a regular foundation brush, not the flat top ones. It stayed on all day, and had a pretty descent coverage and still looked very natural one me. I do believe it was discontinued or the name has changed to vitalumiere aqua, I'm not sure. I definitely recommend this foundation, it is a bit pricy (hence the reason why I haven't purchase it again) but it lasted me a while, you don't need to apply a lot of it. So for those of you that didn't like it maybe it's not for your skin type.

For years been looking and searching several brand of foundation. Starting from cheap till expansive, local and imported. Now finally found perfect one and still in a reasonable price. This is perfect , make my skin brightness but still looks natural and stay longer in the face as i oftenly sweat for my outdoor activity. I wont afraid to spend my money to buy this again ! Seems like this is my destiny...

I usually despise cream foundations. I had purchased the Chanel Teint Innocence a few years ago that came in the same compact and it was incredible greasy and just sat on my skin. This foundation however, is wonderful. It has such a nice natural finish, much better than the regular liquid version too. The liquid version contains alcohol and fragrance. This one does not.
I apply a very thin layer of glorified tinted moisturizer (BB cream) over my sunscreen with my hands and then I use a regular flat foundation brush to apply this foundation around my nose, my chin and under my eyes instead of concealer. Then I blend whatever is left on my brush over the rest of my face. It never looks dry nor oily, it never settles into lines and it lasts all day! It looks so much better than concealer for under the eyes. I'm am incredibly impressed and I definitely feel like it does not get enough recognition.
I am NC15-20 and I bought this in B20. It is a GREAT match. It is not very yellow but not pink at all so it really looks like skin.

This is definately a product that makes you feel good when you use it. Packaging is just beautiful, texture is gorgeous. All you should expect for the price you're paying right?! I am shade B40 in perfection lumiere and got this in the same shade and it is completely different! This is so much more darker and yellow. But it still worked. I find it doesn't last as long as my perfection lumiere but I still love it. It needs to be powdered for oily people. I find I am better off using it for short periods of time. I wouldn't leave it on all day, running around because I become a oily mess! But it has a gorgeous finish like all chanel foundations!

I wish I could rate this foundation as a 3.5. The packaging is quite elegant (obviously, it's Chanel) and it's quite portable. I did really like the foundation. It gave my skin a nice velvety finish however I have too issues with it: The first is that it was too much coverage for daytime. For going out, it's great but I found it actually made me look quite older than I was! Second, it ran out FAST! For $60 CAD, it lasted about 2.5 months. I'm not sure if I will repurchase. But I'm a huge fan of the Poudre Universal - The best loose powder on the market!

After 10 years of using foundation, I found the true color of my skin. And I can't find the right words to express how happy I am. B10 is my shade and I love love love, you cant notice that foundation is there, because the color is exactly the same and the texture is great, this makes me feel beautiful. Hope the Chanel won't discontinue this otherwise I will buy so many pieces to use them till the end of my life!!!😊
Wanna mention here that lately I bought a Valmont foundation bcs my esthetist told me it was great but I can never compare it to this chanel, never ever. I'm sold out!

I am on the fence for this product. I didnt buy it personally. I got this free from someone whom works for Chanel. It sells for $80 SGD which is very expensive. I have only used this product for 6 times and I can see a dip in the pan. I foresee using this 60 times and the entire pan is due for a repurchase. Unless you have the budget for this sort of long haul purchase. It is a little too expensive for daily use. I even have to say I have a high tolerance budget for luxury products. I certainly do not mind spending.
Ok product wise, the coverage is light weight, creamy, luminous. My skin looks more even tone. It is a my skin but better look. Oil control exceeded my expectations for a hydrating product. In a nutshell, I think the number one thing that hinders is the price point. Will definitely not repurchase.
*edit - I tried a different way to apply this foundation. Instead of swiping it across my face. I stipple with the sponge and the finish is closer to flawless. I am in love with this foundation again although I still feel the price too high. Its a tough choice :)

Will post a picture where I used this product, just so you see that it can be medium-full coverage, but I swear to you it feels like second skin.
I have fun using this foundation, but I shouldn't because it's so expensive. It feels cool as soon as you lay this on your skin. I use a flat foundation brush to apply it. I didn't even bother using the sponge, because I feel like it would absorb too much product.
The packaging is chic. Chanel... it's Chanel! Period.
I feel like the foundation is very moisturizing. Even though I have combination skin, it stays in place for hours. I usually set this with powder IF I know I'm going to be outside. I'm currently in Venezuela, where the temperature is usually 110F outside, so trust me, I have to.
I don't think I would set it if I lived in a cooler place.
All I can say is, I'm definitely impressed, not surprised though, because again, this is Chanel. I was expecting a high-quality product and that's exactly what I got.
Love it.
Tip: make sure you close the lid tightly, just so the product doesn't dry out. I've had this for 2 months and so far, so good. But it's better to be safe than sorry!

I received and tested out samples of both the Asian Vitalumiere Hydra compact as well as the Western Vitalumiere Aqua compact. On the surface I expected them to be exactly the same, and they are except the Asian version lists Titanium Dioxide as the 6th ingredient and Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate as the 9th whereas these are not on the Aqua list (Titanium Dioxide is under "Active Ingredients" instead, with Octinoxate, which is not on the Hydra list). Overall, this shouldn't really be that big a difference. On the skin I have to say that the Hydra applies a little smoother, which is why I looked into the ingredients list in the first place. I stopped using the Hydra for a bit because I got a tan during the summer and the Aqua I got was a darker shade and it honestly felt a little dryer and blended less well. At first I chalked it up to seasonal changes until I re-visited the Hydra to try it as a highlight after seeing it in a Pixiwoo tutorial and it applied like a dream. It looked incredible. I mean the Aqua wasn't bad either but wasn't as seamless. I may do a comparison swatch to test this theory further.

I just started using this about 3 months ago, after deciding Giorgio Armani's Face Fabric did not have the staying power for me. I also wanted something that was fast and easy to apply.
I absolutely love this product and I will be buying again. I have pretty fair skin and I bought the Beige 10. I apply it with a Mac 130 brush which works REALLY well. I never used the sponge.
It covers up any redness and minor blemishes and I have received lots of compliments. It feels really nice on, not heavy or uncomfortable, and I haven't had any break outs. I have very dry skin, but this is perfect for me. I have to remember to exfoliate regularly, but that's no different for with any other foundation.
By the end of the day my face still looks good. If it's hot or humid I use a bit of cornstarch power over the top.

Photo: Shauna Ahern Gluten-Free Girl's Shauna Ahern loves the way sweet watermelon disappears on the tongue. Since its season coincides with heirloom tomato's, she combines the two in a salad with feta, tarragon, fruit olive oil and champagne vinegar. The result is equal parts sweet, salty and creamy.
Serves 4 Ingredients
DirectionsPut the watermelon, tomatoes, feta, and tarragon into a large bowl. Combine the olive oil, champagne vinegar, and sea salt in a small jar. Put on the lid. Shake until the dressing is entirely mixed. Drizzle a bit of the dressing around the sides of the bowl of salad. Toss with your hands. If it feels at all dry, add a touch more. Do not overdress this salad, as the dressing can overpower the taste of the watermelon and tomato. Sprinkle a bit of cracked black pepper over the salad.

A late thank you everyone - I've been enjoying playing with these bits and bobs .
Thank you too Zoran for your award - very much appreciated
The books have taken a while to gather together - it's surprising how hard it is to find tatty old books - or to find ones at a price I'm prepared to pay! I'm getting a reasonable collection now though.
I've just bought some Clementines - let's see what I can do with them later - apart from eat then!

Yeah. It's an odd practice to receive ESRB ratings for a company's website, but Nintendo in particular is very careful about their ratings given their very wide demographic.
I'm interested to know what exactly made this news suddenly resurface now of all times; it sounds like somebody was digging for 25th anniversary info and started to see things that weren't there out of sheer desire.

Dress the way you want to be treated: professionally. Shorts, tanks
tops, and bare feet are not allowed in the courtroom. Do not chew
gum. Silence pagers and cell phones.
Be on time! Be seated in the courtroom with your documents [bring at least 3 copies] and your witnesses at least 10 minutes before court is scheduled to begin. Check the calendar – make sure you are in the right courtroom. Sit quietly in the courtroom, until your case is called.
Be prepared! Be ready to tell the judge what you what you want to happen that day and why. Be brief and talk about the most important things first. Make an outline to stay organized. Bring a pen and paper for notes. Organize your documents and evidence before coming to court.
Talk only to the judge. Do not argue with or interrupt the judge, the other party, or attorney. Each side will be given an opportunity to be heard.
Keep your comments positive and respectful. Do not engage in name-calling or make demeaning comments. Do not get emotionally upset or become physically or verbally threatening. If you need a break, ask the judge for a recess.
Behave professionally. Do not slam pens, papers, or doors. Do not laugh, sigh loudly, or make faces. The judge will be observing and behavior impacts credibility.
NEVER lie to a judge, even if you are not under oath. Do not try to misrepresent the facts of your case or misstate the law.
Do not try to talk to the judge about your case unless the other party or attorney is present. The judge legally cannot talk to you alone.
Do not bring young children into the courtroom. If your child cries loudly or cannot sit still, the bailiff will ask you and your child to leave.
Remember that everyone is human and can have a bad day. Do not take negative comments personally. Reply to legal and factual issues.
The Department of Child Support Services attorney represents the interest of the state in having children be supported by their parents and does not represent any party in a child support or paternity case.

Transportation is prime marketing turf at SXSW
AUSTIN, Texas--Marketers are everywhere here at the South by Southwest Interactive Festival, but this year they've discovered some prime new territory: private transportation. The annual geek gathering is nominally headquartered at the Austin Convention Center, but in reality sprawls all across the city's downtown, and given the amount of late-night revelry taking place, cab rides are commonplace. Luckily for this year's attendees, a whole lot of those rides are free--or cheap.

4 Reasons For Software Development Documentation
Posted by: CompleteITProfessional
Software development documentation is an important but often neglected part of software projects. Regardless of the methodology chosen, there should still be some kind of documentation, and there are a few reasons for this.
Improve Team Development
Software projects are run as teams. More often than not, there are multiple developers working on a software solution. A big reason for software documentation is improving the way the team can work together.
Team members don't often work on the same pieces of code. Developers still need to understand how the software is built, however. This is where the documentation comes in. It can help explain how the system fits together, how it's designed, what the screens will look like, and all kinds of technical details.
If the software is documented, both during the design phase and while the development is being done, it helps the team work better together as they all can find out how the software works and what has been done.
Software Development Documentation Helps With Maintenance
Once the software is delivered, someone needs to support it. Just looking at the code alone often isn't enough for the support team to use. Adding in the software development documentation is a great way to improve maintainability, reduce time taken to find and fix problems, and make it easier to enhance the software at a later date.
There are many kinds of documents that exist for maintenance purposes. Design documents (both the technical specifications and the interface design) are helpful to see how the code works and how the system looks. FAQ documents for users can be useful to see what the common questions and issues may be. Suport documents for common tasks, such as user maintenance or data cleansing, can reduce the time taken for support teams to do these tasks.
The aim of this is to reduce the time taken for maintenance tasks.
Explain Complexity In Basic Language
Software systems are complex things. They can take many months to analyse and develop, and cost a lot of money to put into production. It takes the knowledge and skills of IT professionals to be able to do this, but not everyone can work out the complexities of a system just by looking at the code.
Another purpose of software development documentation is to explain the complexities of software in basic, plain language. This can be done in many formats, such as diagrams, user stories, or use cases. The aim should be able to break down how the system works into a language that other users and developers can understand.
This is especially true for the documentation that the users see, such as manuals and help guides. The style of writing for these documents is different, and requires more common language. Technical documents can be full of IT jargon, but user manuals need to be able to be understood by the users.
Useful For Training Material
Another benefit of writing software documentation is the ability to use it for training material. When new IT staff come on to the team, whether they are developers or testers or any other role, the documentation can be used to educate them about how the software works and what it does. This can save time for the rest of the team. It doesn't eliminate the need to do training completely, but it can save some of the time explaining the basics.
Other software development documentation can be written as user training material. This works in a similar way, and is used when there are new business users coming into the company that need to know how to operate the system. If the process and system is documented during the project, it can make this easier for everyone involved.
There are many benefits to having software development documentation, regardless of the chosen software development methodology. While waterfall projects usually have more official documentation, agile projects will still need some kind of documentation, though it may be in a different format.

Indiana health officials now report 49 cases of fungal meningitis in Indiana, with the number of deaths remaining at three. Meanwhile the Indiana State Department of Health says they are working with hospitals, clinics, local health departments, and health care providers, to ensure all products from Ameridose, LLC, are removed from circulation following a national recall on Wednesday. Ameridose is the sister company to the New England Compounding Center, which produced the contaminated back and joint pain steroid injections linked to the recent outbreak. Officials report the voluntary recall is not based on reports of patients with infections associated with any of Ameridose's products, but was recommended by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration out of an abundance of caution, after an inspection of the facility concluded a lack of sterility assurance for products produced and distributed by Ameridose, LLC. Authorities say the Ameridose products have been out of circulation since October 6th and there have been no reports of infections nationwide.

text: [JURIST] Fifteen Nobel Peace Prize laureates sent a letter [text] to United Nations [official website] member states Tuesday urging the UN General Assembly to explore an arms-trade treaty. The letter signers said they believe it "imperative for humanity that the number of deaths caused by firearms be reduced." They recommended passage of an international arms sales resolution that would create a panel to study the issue and report its finding to the UN in 2008. The laureates, including the Dalai Lama, Iranian human rights activist Shirin Ebadi, International Atomic Energy Agency head Mohamed ElBaradei, Anglican archbishop Desmond Tutu, and former Polish president Lech Walesa, said that an arms trade treaty should minimally provide as follows:

Hundreds of tanker trucks and railroad cars snake for miles through the vast landscape of North Dakota now. For his video diary, Reuters correspondent Ernest Scheyder drove into the Bakken Oil Express, a sprawling project at the heart of the state's booming oil economy.
Commander Linda Sturgis, who oversees emergency prevention at the Port of New York, was buzzed through two thick security doors into the Port's hive-like vessel traffic center, the maritime equivalent of an air traffic control tower. The Port had been bracing for Sandy for days, and a few hours earlier, its Captain had halted all commercial vessel traffic, an emergency lockdown known as Condition Zulu.
Shipping delays during storms are common. What few people could foresee was how Sandy's 16-hour assault on a major oil hub would result in the worst regional fuel supply collapse in decades, delaying disaster relief, triggering panic-buying, and raising questions about energy security in the country's most densely populated area.
BP Plc (BP.L) said on Wednesday it reached definitive agreements with well over 100,000 private plaintiffs to resolve claims for economic, property and medical damages resulting from the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill.
The London-based oil company said it still believes the cost of the settlement will be $7.8 billion, to be paid from a $20 billion trust it had previously set aside.
This coming Friday is the two-year anniversary of the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig, which killed 11 workers and triggered the largest offshore oil spill, after BP's Macondo well ruptured.
"BP made a commitment to help economic and environmental restoration efforts in the Gulf Coast," Chief Executive Bob Dudley said in a statement. "This settlement provides the framework for us to continue delivering on that promise, offering those affected full and fair compensation, without waiting for the outcome of a lengthy trial process."
According to settlement papers, about 109,000 condominium owners, hotel and resort operators, restaurateurs, shrimpers and others may be eligible to recover on economic and property claims. About 16,000 plaintiffs may recover for medical claims.
Lawyers for the plaintiffs may be awarded as much as $600 million to cover fees and costs. This sum is separate from any amounts paid to spill victims, settlement papers show.

Royal Dutch Shell is struggling to pay off $1 billion that it owes Iran for crude oil because European Union and U.S. financial sanctions now make it almost impossible to process payments, industry sources said
Four sources said the oil major owes a large sum to the National Iranian Oil Co (NIOC) for deliveries of crude, with one putting the figure at close to $1 billion. A debt of that size would equate to roughly four large tanker loads of Iranian crude or about 8 million barrels.
"Shell is working hard to figure out a way to pay NIOC," said an industry source, who requested anonymity. "It's very sensitive and very difficult. They want to stay on good terms with Iran, while abiding by sanctions."
A Shell spokesman declined to comment.
The government of Venezuela's Hugo Chavez is emerging as a rare supplier of diesel to Syria, potentially undermining Western sanctions and helping the Syrian government fuel its military in the middle of a bloody crackdown on civilian protests.
A cargo of diesel, which can be used to fuel army tanks or as heating fuel, was expected to arrive at Syria's Mediterranean port of Banias this week, according to two traders and shipping data. The cargo could be worth up to $50 million.
Chavez is a vociferous advocate of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who face pressure from Western sanctions. Few leaders on the world stage have polarized opinion as sharply as the Venezuelan president.
Exclusive report: Venezuela ships fuel to war-torn Syria
Reuters has learned that on February 1, Iran-based Naftiran Intertrade increased its holding in British oil giant BP Plc by 1.85 million shares. It now holds a stake worth more than $190 million.
In addition to the shareholding, the Iranian company's ties to BP include the Rhum gas field in the North Sea, a venture that's now suspended due to sanctions. It also has active projects like a gas field with BP in Azerbaijan, and an investment with Royal Dutch Shell in fuel distribution in Senegal.

Iran's Oil Ministry denied state media reports on the Islamic state stopping its crude exports to six European countries on Wednesday.
"We deny this report … If such a decision is made, it will be announced by Iran's Supreme National Security Council," a spokesman for the ministry told Reuters.
Iran's English language Press TV had earlier said Tehran has stopped exporting oil to France, Portugal, Italy, Greece, Netherlands and Spain.
Exclusive: Turkey works to cut dependence on Iranian oil
Turkish refiner Tupras is working on a plan to cut its dependence on imports of Iranian oil as Western powers aim to crack down on the Islamic Republic's oil sales, industry sources familiar with the company's strategy said Thursday.

Add comfort to the air with humidifiers
Dry air is unpleasant. It dries out skin, irritates eyes and allows static electricity to build up. It may damage wood furniture. The solution to these problems is a humidifier. Sears has hundreds of room humidifiers and whole-house humidifiers from today's top brands. Take a few minutes to browse humidifiers on our pages, and you'll find the right one for your home. Shop by brands like Kenmore or Honeywell. Use search options like recommended room size or controls type to identify the best fit for your needs. You may find that warm mist humidifiers provide more comfortable humidification. Some feature medicine cups for soothing, effective breathing treatments. On the other hand, you may prefer cool mist humidifiers because they use less energy. Most of the best-selling humidifiers are compact models with tanks of .5-1.5 gallons. However, we carry console humidifiers with tank capacity of 8 or more gallons. Adding a whole-house humidifier to your HVAC system is another option. The cost of the unit is higher, and installation is extra. However, they offer effective, hassle-free humidification for your entire home.
Removing pollutants from indoor air is just as important as adding humidity to dry air. With concerns about indoor air quality rising, manufacturers have responded. We have an exciting array of air purifiers that are proven effective in removing pollen, dust, smoke, odors and other pollutants from the air. Many use a quality HEPA filter to trap dust and other particles. Others contain activated carbon filters effective in filtering smoke and odors. Search by primary filtration type to determine which kind is right for the conditions in your home. A home purifier will help everyone breathe easier, not just those with allergies or asthma.
Dirty filters in your air purifier will make it ineffective. The appliance will use more electricity while straining to draw air through it. The results can be dirty air and mechanical failure. Stock up on air purifiers accessories today. When you need to change filters, you'll have one on hand for replacement. We also carry dehumidifier accessories. These include replacement air filters, activated carbon pre-filters and water treatment products. Adding Bestair water treatment to your dehumidifier will inhibit the growth of bacteria and algae.
Additional air filter accessories are available for the air treatment appliances in your home. You'll find air filters and drain tubes for dehumidifiers. We stock a range of quality replacement parts. Browse or do a search for the accessories you need, and you're sure to find them.
Is the air in your home as comfortable and healthy as you'd like it to be? If not, shop Sears for humidifiers, air purifiers and accessories that provide the solutions.

Mrs. Greaves, Ludwig von Mises's personal assistant, recently sent this letter to the editor:
Letters to the Editor
Thanks to Milton Friedman's brilliance, charisma and diplomacy he became an ardent spokesman for many free market reforms in this country. And now Ivan Pongracic, Jr. ("The Great Depression According to Milton Friedman," September 2007) gives him credit for convincing Fed officials that the Fed itself was responsible for precipitating the crash and the 1929-1933 monetary contractions that followed. But the contractions were only the spark that brought the boom to an end; the seeds of the depression itself were sown in the preceding boom.
Pongracic says Keynes had "rejected the view that the boom-bust cycle was due to over-expansive government monetary policy…. Keynes claimed that private investment is inherently unstable due to what he called the 'animal spirits' of businessmen/capitalists…. Like sheep that blindly follow other sheep in the herd, it is easy for businessmen to become 'irrationally exuberant." Friedman and Schwartz in their massive history of money apparently accepted that Keynesian explanation, at least in part — attributing the stock-market crash of October 1929 to a "speculative investment bubble," the cause of which was "a somewhat controversial topic." But the cause of that "bubble," the seeds of the crisis, were actually inherent in the very principles on which the Fed was founded.When the Fed was established in 1913 it was set up in the hope of avoiding crises due to a shortage of funds such as banks and their clearing houses had encountered periodically. The Fed was to create a "flexible" money supply to satisfy the "needs of business" and to serve as the lender of last resort to banks in crisis. Thus its very purpose was inflationary. It fostered "easy money" by making loans available at relatively low interest rates. The new "easy money" lured businessmen to undertake enterprises they would not have considered profitable at market interest rates. Thus business boomed. The stock market flourished. If there had been no boom, there would have been no monetary contraction. Thus, the Fed's responsibility for the depression extends to the preceding boom.
It was in 1912 in his first book on monetary theory that Ludwig von Mises laid the groundwork for the Austrian Theory of the Business Cycle. He pointed out then that the monetary boom/bust cycle stemmed from the encouragement given by central banks to expand credit. He described the process in some detail in 1928:
If the banks discount at a lower, rather than at a higher, interest rate, then more loans are made. Enterprises which are unprofitable at 5%, and hence are not undertaken, may be profitable at 4%. Therefore, by lowering the interest rate they charge, banks can intensify the demand for credit. Then, by satisfying this demand, they can increase the quantity of fiduciary media in circulation….
Now, in extending circulation credit, the banks do not proceed by pumping a limited dosage of new fiduciary media into circulation and then stop. They expand the fiduciary media continuously for some time, sending, so to speak, after the first offering, a second, third, fourth, and so on. They do not simply undercut the "natural interest rate" once, and then adjust promptly to the new situation. Instead they continue the practice of making loans below the "natural interest rate" for some time.
The crisis breaks out only when the banks alter their conduct to the extent that they discontinue issuing any more new fiduciary media and stop undercutting the "natural interest rate."…
Mises then asks what will happen if the banks do not stop but continue on their inflationary path, "permitting new quantities of fiduciary media to flow into circulation continuously and proceeding always to make loans below the rate of interest which would prevail on the market in the absence of their interference with newly created fiduciary media…. Would they then be able to make the boom eternal?"
They cannot do this. The reason they cannot is that inflationism carried on ad infinitum is not a workable policy. If the issue of fiduciary media is expanded continuously, prices rise ever higher and at the same time the positive price premium also rises…. It is precisely because, and only because, no end to the prolonged "flood" of expanding fiduciary media is foreseen, that it leads to still sharper price increases and, finally, to a panic in which prices and the loan rate move erratically upward….
Sooner or later, the crisis must inevitably break out as the result of a change in the conduct of the banks. The later the crack-up comes, the longer the period in which the calculation of the entrepreneur is misguided by the issue of additional fiduciary media….
The crisis, with its unique characteristics, is followed by stagnation. The misguided enterprises and businesses of the boom period are already liquidated. Bankruptcy and adjustment have cleared up the situation. The banks have become cautious. They fight shy of expanding circulation credit. They are not inclined to give an ear to credit applications from schemers and promoters. Not only is the artificial stimulus to business, through the expansion of circulation credit, lacking, but even businesses which would be feasible, considering the capital goods available, are not attempted because the general feeling of discouragement makes every innovation appear doubtful…
The problem to be solved is the recurrence of fluctuations in business activity…. Many authors believe that the instigation of the banks' behavior comes from outside, that certain events induce them to pump more fiduciary media into circulation and they would behave differently if these circumstances failed to appear. I was also inclined to this view in the first edition of my book on monetary theory [1912]…. Only later did I become convinced that it was useless to look to an outside stimulus for the change in the conduct of the banks. Only later did I also become convinced that fluctuations in general business conditions were completely dependent on the relationship of the quantity of fiduciary media in circulation to demand.
The fact that each crisis, with its unpleasant consequences, is followed once more by a new "boom," which must eventually expend itself as another crisis, is due only to the circumstances that the ideology which dominates all influential groups — political economists, politicians, statesmen, the press and the business world – not only sanctions, but also demands, the expansion of circulation credit.
Once the Fed started trying to create a "flexible" money supply it found itself between a rock and a hard place. Of course its founders didn't then realize this. But the Fed faced a dilemma: to expand and to keep on expanding the quantity of money would lead to a catastrophic boom and runaway inflation. But when and if it stopped expanding it would cause an economic crisis. Friedman apparently recognized this later. But as far as I know, he gave no indication that he realized it was inherent in the very principle on which the Fed was based. But then he was an inflationist; he believed that only by constantly and steadily increasing the money supply, to keep abreast of increases in production and population size, can an economy prosper.

DAI was founded in 1970 by three graduates of Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government intent on providing a more dynamic and effective brand of development assistance. This entrepreneurial approach would look beyond traditional philanthropy to embrace the virtues of the private sector, and build a company that delivers social and economic development on a competitive, cost-effective, best-value basis—a social enterprise that is self-sustaining because it is profitable.
Employee-owned DAI is now a global development company with a record of delivering results in 160 countries. But it remains today what it was as a start-up: innovative, alert, self-critical, and forward-looking—and driven by a powerful sense of corporate purpose. Our mission remains essentially unchanged from the days of the founders.
A Consistent Mission
DAI's mission is to make a lasting difference in the world by helping developing nations become more prosperous, fairer and more just, cleaner, safer, healthier, more stable, more efficient, and better governed.
In all our efforts to shape a more livable world, we adhere to six core values:
- People: We hire and strive to retain the very best people. We want DAI to be a great place to work for a great group of people.
- Accountability: When we don't get it right we own up, fix it, and get it right the next time.
- Quality: We demand of ourselves the highest attainable standards.
- Integrity: We have an unwavering commitment to civility, ethics, and integrity.
- Profitability: If we succeed as a business, we will secure the future for employee owners and build the resources to invest in DAI as an engine of global development.
- Independence: Employee ownership is a leading edge of our competitive advantage. We have a personal stake in the success of our projects and our company.
Incorporated in 1970 as Development Alternatives, Inc., DAI made its earliest mark through a series of analytical studies. In 1973, we won a contract to analyze 36 U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) projects in Latin America and Africa.
The resulting study, Strategies for Small Farmer Development, cemented the firm's growing reputation, and we built on this momentum to seek more substantial assignments implementing projects in the field. Our first major project was to revitalize the agricultural economy in the North Shaba region of Zaire. Other implementation initiatives in rural and agricultural development followed in Sudan and elsewhere.
Among a new generation of DAI employees joining the firm in the 1980s was current CEO Jim Boomgard, a Ph.D. agricultural economist who played a key role in developing an approach to small business promotion in developing countries and managed a landmark multicountry study called Growth and Equity through Micro-enterprise Investments and Institutions (GEMINI).
Responding to Global Transformations
At the start of the 1990s, the collapse of the Soviet Union led to enterprise development, privatization, and governance projects for DAI in Eastern Europe. DAI also added a banking and financial services unit around this time. In 1995, we invested in London, U.K.-based Graham Bannock & Partners Ltd., which as the now wholly-owned DAI Europe would go on to give DAI a thriving presence as an implementing partner for European clients.
Following the 9/11 attacks of 2001 and the subsequent U.S. military actions, DAI was called on to lead a variety of challenging development projects in the midst of the counterinsurgency in Afghanistan, a country where we worked as early as 1977. Similarly, after the United States toppled the Iraqi regime in 2003, DAI won a project to help provide legitimate governance in the country. Other assignments in Iraq covered agriculture and, famously, the restoration of the Iraqi Marshlands.
The middle years of the decade also saw the company innovating in the health arena. As avian influenza assumed the dimensions of an emerging threat, we launched an AI practice at the intersection of our existing work in sanitary and phytosanitary standards (essentially animal and plant health), agricultural economics, community engagement, HIV/AIDS, and crisis response. The firm won USAID's flagship AI control program, STOP AI, and subsequently a broader program called RESPOND, which builds the capacity of institutions in developing nations to respond to emerging infectious diseases and pandemic threats.
A Global Development Company
At the start of 2009, Jim Boomgard became DAI's new CEO. The next year, Julian Lob-Levyt—formerly CEO of the GAVI Alliance—joined the firm to lead our international operations from the London office, and DAI celebrated its 40th birthday by publishing The First 40: A History of DAI.
"The next 10 years will determine whether we can make an American success story into a global success story," wrote Boomgard in his foreword to the book. "Over the next 10 years, we'll execute a new strategy designed to bring our strengths, our experience, and our commitment to a changing and in many ways expanding landscape of international development—a landscape that will see more development driven from the ground up, more decision making in countries that have traditionally been the recipients of donor assistance, and a more diverse and influential array of local actors in the development arena."
Most recently, in 2013, DAI joined forces with the distinguished British consultancy HTSPE Ltd., in a combination that offers enhanced capabilities and greater value for money to global—and especially European—development clients.

Tom Felton for Riley!
Tom Felton, or as some of you may know him as "Draco Malfoy" from the bestselling Harry Potter movies, is up for the role as Riley [Victorias accomplise] in the third installment, "Eclipse", the movie, originally written by phenomenal author Stephenie Meyer.

Light Fingers: The New Glow Stick For Raves
Light Fingers are ridiculous.
A hypnotic light show at your fingertips; put on your favorite music, turn down the lights, and dazzle yourself with beams of pure color. You control more than 20 different pre-programmed light show patterns, plus a black light and strobe light add mind-blowing effects.
They cost $20 and will make you the stupidest looking person at whatever party you're at. Since when did a glow-stick on a string become insufficient entertainment when you're tripping? They always worked fine for me. Well, except for the one I chewed through. While having a glowing tongue is kind of cool for a minute, it isn't worth the taste of radioactive shit in your mouth.

A dog's true loyalty and affection toward his pet parent has helped him earn the nickname of "man's best friend." Throughout the years, dogs have become more than just a pet as some are considered a member of the family as well as life-long companions. To prolong your dog's companionship and promote a better quality of life for him, various hip & joint supplements for dogs along with daily vitamins and other beneficial supplements have been formulated. Additionally, you can maximize healthy joint function for your dog with joint supplement granules, tablets and treats. As dogs age, their mobility is impacted by their joints becoming less flexible. Hip & joint supplements for dogs are designed to promote better flexibility as well as healthy joints and cartilage. Most joint supplement granules and powders are available in flavors that dogs enjoy and can be easily mixed in with your dog's meals. Containing Glucosamine for optimal joint health and Chondrotin for healthy hips and joints, various hip & joint supplements for dogs are intended for daily use. Honor the bond between you and your dog and promote a better quality of life for him with joint supplement granules, capsules, tablets, or treats.
While some breeds are prone to hip dysplasia, arthritis and osteochondritis (OCD), these structural conditions are known to affect most dogs later in life. That's why it's important to monitor your dog's activity levels constantly. Hip & joint supplements for dogs and canine buffered aspirin can help reduce pain and inflammation that may cause your dog to disengage in routine activities and exercise. Meanwhile, there are flavorful smoothies, wafers, biscuits in addition to joint supplement granules available to relieve pain associated with most joint or mobility conditions.
Sudden difficulty getting up or reluctance toward regular play may indicate a hip and joint condition or other illness. While these conditions are more evident in senior dogs, they can also develop earlier in life. That's why daily hip & joint supplements for dogs along with routine visits to your veterinarian are important in promoting your dog's overall health and well-being. From capsules, tablets and powders to biscuits, soft chews and joint supplement granules, various products are available to ease pain and promote mobility and a better quality of life for your dog. Honor your bond with your canine best friend today with hip and joint supplements.
