Plan Features
Plan DescriptionPerfect for a wide lot, the sprawling luxury ranch home plan shows off Mediterranean style with a floor plan suited for entertaining indoors and out. Fanciful raised ceilings top many of the main living areas and columns punctuate the formal living and dining rooms. Adjacent from each other, these two rooms provide the perfect setting for hosting elegant dinner parties. The peaceful study works well as a home office and a quiet retreat from the busy daily routine. Two islands are better than one in the gourmet kitchen featuring an eating bar and pantry. The grand family room provides organizational built-ins, a wet bar and pocket doors that open to the lanai with outdoor kitchen and fireplace creating a wonderful atmosphere for casual entertaining. There will be little to worry about when hosting swim parties with the convenient outdoor shower and easy access to the pool bath. Split bedrooms offer privacy to the master suite, loaded with many of todays most requested features. Begin with the bayed sitting area, double walk-in closets and French door access to the covered lanai. Take a second look at the exquisite bath showcasing twin vanities, a soaking tub and roomy shower for two. There is plenty of room for the children or overnight guests. Three bedrooms suites offer ample closet space and their own baths. A unique courtyard area off Bedroom 3 is an enchanting space for outdoor relaxation. This Sunbelt home plan delivers an electric mix of comfort and modern day amenities maximizing size and style for todays active family.

We offer two ways to locate information:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
With aromas of roasting meat, violets and black pepper, this full-bodied Syrah offers rustic tannins that will reward cellaring.

The Wine Advocate
"Saturated, bright ruby. Wild, distinctly Northern Rhone-like aromas of roasted black fruits, black olive and smoked meat; I would have guessed Cornas. Then superripe and sweet, but with firm acids giving shape to the strong fruit flavors. Dense and seamless wine, perhaps a bit youthfully aggressive but with the breadth and strength of fruit to support its strong structure. Very long on the finish. I'd love to slip this into a blind tasting of Cornas."

While the history of Failla (pronounced FAY-la) is short it is not without its complexities. Founded as Failla Jordan in 1998, it took its name from the husband-and-wife team of winemaker Ehren Jordan and fellow debtor Anne-Marie Failla. That year we planted our Estate vineyard on the Sonoma Coast and began buying fruit for our first releases, the very Rhône-style '98 Alban Vineyard Viognier and '98 Que Syrah Syrah.
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right. The Napa wine industry really took off in the 1980's, when vineyard...Read More About Napa Valley

Doesn't this implicitly support Dan Geer et al's argument about
software monoculture?
In fact, wouldn't the "linux monoculture" concept constitute a bit
of a misnomer? Each "slightly different" userland and libc would constitute
a different flavor, right?
Nevertheless, the received wisdom remains that "If linux took over from

Bears Best
Featured Ride near Las Vegas,
"This trail has great flowing, winding and rocky singletrack."
— Markk Knowles on Apr 9, 2013
|14.5 Miles
|1,058' Ascent
|3,197' High
|2.7% Avg Grade
|90% Singletrack
|-1,059' Descent
|2,887' Low
|6.2% Max Grade
Take a
Virtual Ride
OverviewAlthough the GPS track starts from a small paved access area, many find it best to park at RC Willeys up the road to avoid problems with the landowner. The first mile is paved, drops into a dry water detention basin, then the singletrack begins for a great 10 mile loop.
There are a variety of options in this trail network with more springing up lately. Some of these dead end and some are shortcuts. There are no other names that I could find for these variations. You can't really go wrong...it's all fun!
**UPDATE** The word is out....the property this ride resides on is being looked at for development. The most prestigious housing development to date in Las Vegas is being planned for this land. So get down on it while it's still there!!
Need To KnowPlease do not drive your vehicle into the paved access road. This area is restricted.
DescriptionBears Best is located in Summerlin, west of Las Vegas off the 215 Beltway and Town Center Blvd. The trail begins with about a mile of paved access road followed to a dirt road to the west the ends at a water detention basin. Sail down the cement basin to a singletrack trail on the other side.
From here there is a section of BMX like flowing turns. A few shortcuts have developed - try to avoid these to get the full ride. The builders of this trail did an excellent job using the natural terrain to its advantage and getting the most trail in the space available. There are a lot of small fun rocky obstacles and smooth flowing trail as well. Enjoy!

Gingerbread Cake
When I think of Christmas I think of the smell of Christmas trees, cinnamon, cloves in oranges and gingerbread! I've been saying for weeks that I'm going to make some gingerbread men but never actually got round to it!! So when I spied a pin on pinterest for gingerbread cupcakes it got me thinking!!
'gingerbread men, cupcakes, cakes, frosting!!!'
Going to a friend's house for dinner gave me the perfect excuse to bake my gingerbready thoughts up and make a gingerbread cake with cinnamon frosting and mini gingerbread men.
And here it is:
I will get the actual recipe posted soon! And a note to all it is 100% gluten free!!

Humorous misspelling of the word "penis." Comes from a translation of a Fate/Stay Night parody comic, where the translators kept the Japanese convention of using circles to edit out certain letters of certain words; the self-censored term for "penis" thus appeared as "p•n•s", and conceivably as "ponos," "pOnOs" or "p0n0s" - all variations which have been used on the internet. Usually used in conjunction with another similarly censored term, vagooo.
Put your ponos up to my vagooo and j-JAM IT IN! (Actual usage from the original Fate/Stay Night parody)

10 Useless Business Buzz Words
From catchy marketing pitches to standard office memorandums, it seems that our entire universe has succumbed to the use of buzzwords. Whether you are "LOL-ing" on Twitter or "problem solving" in a corporate boardroom, you have likely heard (and loathed) some of these overused catch phrases. While there may be a few that are worth using, some are just entirely useless and should be retired immediately. Here is my top 10 most useless buzzword list!
1. Dynamic
In all of my years in the business world, there are only a few individuals that I have worked with who were truly dynamic. Yet, glance over a stack of resumes and you are sure to see this word used repeatedly. From "dynamic" performance to "dynamic" results, I can honestly say that this word is a "dynamic" disaster.
2. Issues
Why is it that everyone and everything now has "issues" to deal with? Is it no longer OK to call something a problem or a challenge or downright fucked up? Are we so afraid of our own dysfunction that we feel the need to sugar coat it with a word like "issues"? Houston, we have an "issue" with this buzzword!
3. Viral
From cat videos that spread like wildfire on YouTube to gadgets and ideas that everyone wants to copy, the world seems to love a "viral" anything. But does this word really stand up to the hype? I think not. Can't we find a better term to express our interest that doesn't have its root in disease, illness, and all things morbid?
4. Track Record
Of all the buzzwords that I hear daily, I think I hate this one the most. It paints a picture in my head of someone grading and recording everything I do and then using it against me for all eternity. It insinuates that the some of all my accomplishments, mistakes, and life lessons can be easily quantified and then presented…perhaps with a graph. Can we please just go back to words like experience and reputation? Please… and thank you.
5. Epic
When I was in school, the only things considered "epic" were literary works like "The Odyssey." Now we have "epic" everything. From "epic" dates, "epic" ideas, and "epic" friends, to "epic" sales, "epic" CEO's, and "epic" business plans. As far as I am concerned, using this buzzword should be considered an "epic" fail.
6. To Be Honest (TBH)
Do we really live in a world that is so overcome with falseness that there is a genuine need to preface statements with "to be honest"? And if not, please quit using it. To be honest, I hate this buzzword.
7. With All Due Respect
If you are looking for useless, then you have arrived with this buzzword. Why do people feel that prefacing something bad-mannered, uncouth, and just plain rude with this phrase should suddenly make it OK to say? With all due respect, this expression is shit.
8. Noodle
As strange and useless of a buzzword as this is, it somehow manages to get double exposure in the world of jargon. Not only do people use it in reference to a brain, head, or mind (such as "that's using your noodle"), but it also is expanded to mean ideas and thoughts as well ("I'll noodle it over and get back to you"). But with all the interesting and fascinating expressions of vocabulary available in the English language, this is one word that we don't need to "noodle" over using.
9. Wow Factor
I just don't understand this buzzword at all… in fact, I don't think anyone really does. A "wow factor," it seems, is some over the top amazing-ness that people want but don't know how to explain. It kind of lends to the idea of "I'll know it when I see it." While this is great and all for the one speaking, what the hell is everyone else supposed to do with this incommunicable perfection that you desire? Exactly… so save us all the confusion and eliminate this word completely.
10. Hump Day
Traditionally, this term was used to identify Wednesday, or the third day of a five day workweek. It was an acknowledgement that the week was more than half over and therefore a positive thing. While I get the terminology and I even appreciate the picture it paints, it really has outlived its usefulness. With the craziness of today's schedules and always linked mobile communications, there really is no such thing as a "hump day" for many people anymore.

Jebel Ali port welcomes four of the world's largest quay cranes
Each weighs 1,850,000 kg equal to three fully loaded A380s
Dubai: Four of the largest and most modern Ship To Shore (STS) quay cranes have arrived at DP World's new Jebel Ali Container Terminal 3 (T3), due to open next year.
This is the first batch of 19 quay cranes due to be delivered in the next few months and installed on the 1,860 metre long and 17 metre deep quayside at the 4 million TEU (twenty-foot equivalent unit) capacity terminal. They join the first four of 50 Rail Mounted Gantry (RMG) cranes that arrived there last month.
Each quay crane is over 138 metres tall at full boom extension and if all 19 were put end to end they would be three times the height of the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building and an iconic Dubai landmark.
Mohammad Al Muallem, Senior Vice President and Managing Director, DP World, UAE Region, said:
"As customers order larger vessels and seek world class hub ports to handle their fleets, development of port infrastructure to handle these giant vessels is a major requirement. These cranes and our new container terminal will strengthen Jebel Ali's position as the most efficient and modern gateway for cargo in the UAE, GCC and the wider Middle East region."
Nabil Qayed, Director, Technical Department, DP World, UAE Region, said the new STS cranes each weigh 1,850,000kg — the equivalent of three fully loaded Airbus A380-800 superjumbo aircraft at take-off. "They can lift four twenty foot containers at one time, handling up to 100,000 kg a lift. And with their 69.5 metre lifting height and extended reach, they can easily handle the 25 containers-wide new generation ultra large container ships (ULCS)."
There will be 98 quay cranes in total at Jebel Ali once all cranes on order are in place.

I've long been a proponent of using budgeted vacation money to buy experiences over using it to buy things. Things break. Things have to be maintained. Things get stolen, they wear out, they go out of style, and they get thrown into a corner of your attic and forgotten. Not so with experiences. Experiences create memories and memories are long treasured after things have worn out. Memories are passed down to subsequent generations of family and friends.
I believe it was the late Senator Paul Tsongas who said:
No one on his deathbed ever said, I wish I had spent more time at the office.
The question is: where do you think people on their deathbed wish they had spent more of their time? My theory is that they wish they had spent more time with family and friends, more time experiencing great places and events, more time teaching children and grandchildren … and learning from them. More time experiencing life and all its richness, less time buying things that won't last. I recently lost a family friend who suddenly died of heart failure. This guy was a blast to be around. He lifted spirits everywhere he went and he always had a smile or a gut-busting laugh about something. His personality was infectious and his specialty was encouragement. Before he died, he confessed something that stunned me. He confessed his regrets – his regrets about what he did for a living, what he didn't do that he wished he had, the girl he didn't marry (he remained single for 65+ years), the children he didn't have, the life he didn't live. I was amazed that someone so positive and uplifting to others was down in the doldrums himself. His unexpected death shocked me and my family. More shocking were his confessions. I don't want to live like that. I don't want the office to suck so much life from me that I don't live at home because of the stress I bring home. I don't want business and the thrill of competition in the marketplace to mold me into someone my children love, but don't want to be around. Someone they are satisfied to see just once or twice per year because I'm an ogre to be around unless it's Thanksgiving or Christmas. Someone who dies with the respect of my family, but who has regrets a-plenty. That's one reason why I take my wife and children on vacations and trips but we don't have an enormous home theater entertainment system. We go to interesting places in the USA, but I don't own a boat, or a four-wheeler, or a Harley Davidson, or an iPad, or a sports car, or a McMansion, or a host of other toys that will wear out. I'd much rather take my family on a trip to Seattle (using CityPASS of course), or take my wife hang-gliding over Lookout Mountain outside of Chattanooga, or take a hot air balloon ride (still on the bucket list), or experience Yellowstone National Park. Those experiences have created memories that will last a lifetime. We still laugh about our experiences and recount to each other and to friends the great times we had as a family. You don't have to go on trips to New York or Los Angeles to create memories though. You can create memories just by making a new recipe, or camping in the backyard, or taking a walk through the woods near a park, or going to the county fair with the kids. Great memories from your experiences are waiting on you. All you have to do is make them, and then recount them to others to make them outlast anything you can buy at the mall. So leave your office cell phone at the office and experience life with the ones you love. You won't regret it. Photo credits:

Olivia Wilde Crushes It When She Talks About Women in Hollywood →
Olivia Wilde is sharply aware of her place in Hollywood, and recently had some great things to say about women expanding their roles in Tinsel Town.
Olivia Wilde is sharply aware of her place in Hollywood, and recently had some great things to say about women expanding their roles in Tinsel Town.
I recently read a blog post here about the hit Disney movie "Frozen," written by a woman who strongly believes that the film is promoting the homosexual agenda.
This post made me so angry, and yes, I read the whole thing. In the interest of full disclosure, I'll go ahead and let you know of the following: I'm a liberal democrat, I'm straight but I support gay rights, and I'm a huge Disney fan. But one more thing: I was raised Christian, and have always considered myself a Christian.
This woman essentially argues that the entirety of the film doesn't just have an underlying theme of homosexuality, but it is the exact theme of the movie. She states, "The gay agenda to normalize homosexuality is woven into Disney's movie Frozen not just as an underlying message - it is the movie. In a liberal culture tenacious at normalizing immorality, stripping those of faith from their ability to speak out in opposition, this needs to be taken seriously."
She then goes on to give specific examples of why this is true. In "Frozen," Elsa is born with a power that she is encouraged by her parents to hide and not take advantage of, and she is told to keep it a secret or else there will be very dangerous and potentially life-threatening repercussions that will directly affect those she loves. Alternatively, her "normal" sister is able to enjoy life without the fear that Elsa constantly lives in. She claims this power that Elsa possesses is a direct and intentional parallel to homosexuality.
First, let me say that this blog post is very well-written and makes some convincing points. The author also says she does appreciate "Frozen" as a film and states that it was well-done and beautiful. However, I was so frustrated after reading this. I understand the parallels, truly, I do. I get what she is saying, but to claim that this is the ONLY message Disney is trying to get across, and that they are INTENTIONALLY pushing the "homosexual agenda" upon viewers, and trying to "normalize" the gay lifestyle is just absurd. There is so much more to "Frozen," and the theme to this film is so much more universal and relatable. She is putting this amazing film in a very small box.
"Frozen" makes a very unfortunate situation so relatable to so many people. Elsa is not only a very real character for anyone who is gay, but anyone who has been bullied, faced persecution, struggled with accepting themselves, or has been told by others that they don't fit in. Elsa's parents aren't only similar to parents who have encouraged their gay children to stay in the closet, but any kind of parent who has tried to help their children fit the mold of society in order to have an "easier" life. They love Elsa, but they are also concerned for the kind of persecution she will face if she is honest and reveals her powers to the kingdom.
"Don't let them in, don't let them see.
Be the good girl you always have to be.
Conceal, don't feel, put on a show.
Make one wrong move and everyone will know."
If you think that the only real-life parallel for this is the feeling of being homosexual in a society of people who don't accept you, you are terribly misguided, and you've likely never experienced any adversity.
"Frozen" is a story for kids who have been bullied, kids who look different, the ones who have learning disorders like ADD and ADHD, or even Autism and Down Syndrome. It's for kids like me growing up, who struggle with severe anxiety and depression but don't understand why. It's for kids who are terribly insecure or have eating disorders. It's for the kids who are constantly confused and conflicted by something they were born with, and no, that doesn't ONLY mean homosexuality. It's for the kids who don't like to leave their house, because they're scared of what others will make of their differences. It's for everyone, adults and kids alike, who feel like they need to hide something in order for the world around them to accept them, and in order for their life to be easier.
And you know what else "Frozen" reminds me of? The story of Jesus Christ. Jesus was constantly persecuted by those around him, even though he was born as the Son of God and had so much love to spread. He was looked down upon because he was different. People thought he was crazy. They didn't believe in his power or that he was the King of the heavens and the Earth, and that he should be put to death for his claims. Jesus spent a lot of time alone to be with God and away from the pressures of the world around him. He faced adversity because of who he was. He STILL faces adversity to this very day. And if you don't see that parallel, that's okay, because you don't have to. The story of "Frozen" doesn't only have one parallel, or one theme, and isn't meant to only mean one thing.
So you know what? Elsa is my queen. She's my favorite Disney princess now, and it's not because I think she might be gay, and it's not because she has magical powers, and it's not because she has an awesome ice queen dress and her hair always looks great, and it's not because she is an amazing character in a movie that may or may not be pushing the liberal agenda. It's because she struggles because she is different. It's because she perseveres through something that is out of her control. Because she has a sister that she loves so much and she just wants to take care of her, and will do anything to prevent hurting her. It's because she is determined to come out on top of it all as Queen Elsa, and she does. She uses what she has to her advantage, because she is born with a gift that she cannot and will not suppress. She could have continued to go through her life trying to suppress it, but she refuses to live in a way that is untrue to who she is.
Someday I'll teach my children the story of Jesus and how his story gives us hope for a new life, and how his life can and should be inspiration for us to live differently, whatever that means. And I have no doubt in my mind that my children will also watch "Frozen" someday. I truly hope that they can relate to the film like so many did in 2013 and 2014. Because the message of "Frozen" isn't just for one group of people, and isn't meant to push the homosexual agenda. The message is universal: whatever makes you different, and is causing you to hold back from being yourself… let it go.
This year, my biggest resolution is to get fit(ter) and lose some weight. When I was thinking about my resolutions, I thought that this one wouldn't be THAT big of a deal… I'd get a gym membership, eat healthier, stop munching after 10pm, etc. But I slowly came to the realization that this is a lifestyle change, rather than a few quick changes, because the way I've been living since I left college has not fostered many healthy habits.
I mean, I should give myself more credit than that. I'm pretty good with eating on the healthy side even if I don't try super hard to do so. And I've always been an active person with a relatively fast metabolism, so it's not like it was a huge undertaking to get into working out. I know plenty of things I can do to exercise every day and I should have done it a long time ago. I also don't NEED to lose weight, but it's more of a personal goal that I want to work towards. So, granted, this lifestyle change is probably easier for me than a lot of people, which I'm grateful for, but it's a lifestyle change nevertheless.
I started Weight Watchers earlier this month along with my mom and sister, and I'm now entering my 3rd week. I've lost 5 pounds and I'm about 15 pounds away from my goal weight. I highly recommend WW for anyone who loves to eat, doesn't like dieting, doesn't believing in counting calories, exercises along with dieting… or not. WW is literally for everyone because it's so stinkin' easy to follow, doesn't deprive you of your favorite foods, rewards you for exercise, and teaches you a healthy way to look at food. Fruits and veggies don't count as points, which is probably the best part. I also make a much bigger effort to drink lots of water every day, which is great for health reasons and blah blah blah but it also curbs my snacking.
Along with starting weight watchers, I now exercise 4-5 days a week. Before, I was at like, one measly day a week. I'm motivated by groups, so I signed up for yoga and Cardio Barre classes via Groupon, and bought myself a new pair of trail running shoes for hiking on the weekends. I've vowed to make exercising a priority rather than just something I do if I have the time or motivation (which, like, let's be real, I never like REALLY AM DYING TO EXERCISE).
With that said, here are the biggest obstacles and accomplishments thus far.
1. I do miss a lot of sweets and carbs. I guess that's good because that's the point. But I just love pasta and bread so much that it was difficult at first especially to find things that I love just as much. I also despise diet soda, but have succumbed to its caffeine powers.
2. Snacking late at night. I love snacking while watching online television between the hours of 9pm and 1am. Some people just beast out a workout to reduce stress because that's their thing. Why can't that be my thing? My thing is Netflix and snacks.
3. Weekend recreation. I have a Disneyland Annual Pass and go about once a month and it was SUPER hard to resist the temptations of all the diet-killers at my favorite theme park. Also, on the weekends, the later I stay awake on Friday or Saturday nights, the more I want to munch. I also have to cut back on my favorite sugar-laden drinks (whiskey sours and spiked cider).
1. I have incorporated SO MUCH MORE fruit and veggies into my diet. Since they are zero points on WW, it makes it easy to snack on this if I'm running low on points for the remainder of the day.
2. I appreciate indulging more. Mickey Mouse beignets have never tasted so good as they did after I started my diet.
3. I have more energy and sleep better. This is partially due to my increase in exercise, not exclusively eating right, but still!
4. I've gotten really good at coming up with healthy WW-friendly snacks.
5. Last, but not least, and the most obvious… I am losing weight. While my current weight isn't threatening my health, I know losing this weight is going to make me feel more confident and I'm going to get more fit.
I plan on blogging more about this the further along I get. Stay tuned for HOPEFULLY some more success stories :]

Today, we opened up the floor for Boston College sports questions to our readers, and we answered 41 of them. Thank you to all who participated.
Some of the most insightful questions and answers were as follows:
On A BC Bowl Game, answered by Kyle
Q: Does BC make a bowl this year?
A: I definitely think BC can win at least six games. Honestly I believe that they should've been able to do it last year. This is going to be a team with direction and a fire under the new helm of Addazio.
On BC football's best-case scenario, answered by Joe
Q: Best-case scenario for BC football this year?
A: Probably 6 or 7 wins and an early bowl game.
On the football program, generally speaking, answered by Joe
Q: Thoughts on the direction of the football program now?
A: There was nowhere to go but up and we're definitely going up. When Addazio and his staff came in, it seemed like the attitude changed overnight. Regardless of the results this season that's a big thing.
On the return of "O-Line U," answered by Kyle
Q: Will Addazio return BC to "O-Line U?"
A: I think he has the manpower and the mindset to do it. James Hendren and Jon Baker look like good recruits who can do damage. Also, Spaz recruit Frank Taylor was heavily recruited out of high school and redshirted last season, but should be ready to help out in the transformation.
On breakout players, answered by Joe
Q: Who is poise[d] to have a break out season this year? Anyone putting in any noticeable extra effort?
A: The news on individual players has been very spotty as you might suspect, but I'll answer this question nebulously: whomever replaces Chris Pantale. Addazio is big on tight ends and I think the position is going to have an impact this year.
On BC football recruiting, answered by Kyle
Q: Are you concerned that the recruiting may have slowed down a little or is that just a consequence of the class nearly filling up?
A: A little bit, but not particularly. It's kind of like a new mole on your back sort of feeling. This is still a strong class with an underrated QB in Darius Wade and a titan in Connor Strachan. Though I don't like the amount of 2 stars/no stars on the books.
On Chase Rettig, answered by Kyle
Q: What kind of season do you see Chase Rettig having?
A: I think he'll have a solid senior season, but there are definitely a lot of questions. Sure you have Amidon, but is Spiffy Evans ready to step up and fulfill the potential that we definitely see in him? Also, will the o-line be able to give enough time for Rettig to think? I won't even bother counting how many offensive coordinators this is for Rettig, but it could be real tough at first. Hopefully, Rettig will realize he has a shot at the NFL and will try to impress.
On Notre Dame, answered by Joe
Q: Is Notre Dame still BC's biggest rival or do you think the likes of Syracuse, Clemson, NC-State have replaced them?
A: I can only speak for myself, but I don't think ND is the biggest rival…ACC Atlantic ones are more important. I think the history of the rivalry and the traditions it carries makes it a big thing for the fans, but I'd much rather poach a big win over Clemson or FSU as those games are of direct ACC consequence. I can see Syracuse becoming a primary rivalry in the years ahead.

The Volvo Group is a leading supplier of commercial and consumer transport solutions and customer financial services. Volvo IT, which provides solutions to the Group to manage its projects, wanted to improve employee efficiency by extending current
resource management, time reporting, portfolio management, and other project management processes. The Volvo Group implemented Microsoft Project Server 2010 and made customizations to adapt to various internal processes and software applications. The Group
is using Project Server 2010 to improve capacity planning to build its long-term strengths. Because of the customizations and the rich but simple user interface of the Microsoft Project Web App technology, the Volvo Group has cut the time spent entering project
data by 40 percent. It also has improved project visibility and control, and can now provide more transparent resource management.
The Volvo Group produces commercial vehicles—such as Renault and Mack trucks and Volvo buses—and construction equipment. It also includes companies responsible for marine and aeronautical technologies, logistics, and financial services. With headquarters
in Göteborg, Sweden, the Group has more than 90,000 global employees, production facilities in 19 countries, and sales activities in 180 countries. It had 2009 revenues of about SEK218 billion (U.S.$29 billion).
The Volvo Group has sophisticated, well-developed project management processes that provide control and visibility. To support those processes, Volvo IT was using Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 and Microsoft Office Project Server 2007. Although the
Volvo Group was generally satisfied with the Microsoft software, Office Project Server 2007 did not have the flexibility to adapt to the Group's time-reporting processes. For that reason, only about half of the Group's 2,200 users had upgraded to Office Project
Server 2007.
The Volvo Group was interested in improving its resource management. "We are always looking to better anticipate demand on our resources," Stéphane Perrin says. "We seek to manage our capacity planning and our hiring of contractors in the most efficient
way." The Group tries to keep its in-house staff always working at full capacity. "We like to make sure that we are using resources at their optimum speed. Thus we try to keep everyone occupied, to never have excess capacity," says Stéphane Perrin. This philosophy
means that the Group frequently employs contractors to augment the in-house staff. Thus, to most effectively manage those internal and external resources, the Volvo Group is always seeking to improve its portfolio management and capacity planning.
Some internal software applications did not interact successfully with Project Server 2003 and Office Project Server 2007, which sometimes resulted in employees having to enter duplicate information. For example, some employees spent 25 minutes per week
entering project summary or time-reporting data into SAP enterprise resource planning software. Others had to enter such data into Microsoft Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Foundation Server, which Volvo IT uses to implement familiar methodologies for
developing IT applications. "The developers who work with Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Foundation Server tend to use it for day-to-day tasks, for which it is very precise," says Stéphane Perrin. "But we sometimes had difficulties mapping these details
to the broader summary tasks defined by project planners."
The Volvo Group also wanted to streamline some of its project management procedures. For example, managers sometimes struggled to successfully publish information in simple and clear reports. Some employees had problems with the speed of the Web client,
Microsoft Office Project Web Access, because it depended on the ActiveX controls on their client machines. Finally, the Volvo Group was always seeking to use employees' time in meetings most effectively. "Too much time in meetings is spent with people telling
their manager what they have done," says Stéphane Perrin. "Sometimes that would take so much time that the meeting would end without a decision being made."
The Volvo Group participated in the Technology Adoption Program for Microsoft Project 2010 so that it would be able to provide prerelease feedback on process flexibility. The Group was intrigued by Microsoft Project Server 2010 because it would offer better
ways of planning resource deployment, more features in its Web client, and close interoperation with Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010.
In February 2010, the Volvo Group implemented a pilot project with 50 users. It worked with Teamsquare, a Microsoft Certified Partner based in Lyon, France, that specializes in project management. "Teamsquare worked with us from very early in the process,
looking at requirements and design," says Stéphane Perrin. "Teamsquare is a small company, but with wide expertise."
Volvo IT runs Project Server 2010 on a mixture of virtual servers and quad-core physical servers featuring 4 gigabytes of RAM. It plans to migrate all 2,200 of its users to the new software by the end of calendar year 2010. All employees will perform their
work with the Web client, Microsoft Project Web App. "Even the 500 who formerly used the full client, Microsoft Office Project Professional 2007, will be able to access everything they need in Project Server 2010 using Project Web App," says Stéphane Perrin.
Because users can edit project data through Project Web App, the Volvo Group is significantly reducing the number of project managers who need Microsoft Project Professional 2010. And because Project Web App does not depend on ActiveX controls, it responds
more quickly to user commands.
For the project managers who are responsible for completing project plans, reporting is important. Those managers can use the new Timeline view in Project Professional 2010 to easily create a high-level view of a project plan. They can drag tasks into the
timeline and paste the timeline into presentations or e-mail messages.
The Volvo Group has deployed Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 to manage workflows as well as documents and forms. Because Project Server 2010 is built on SharePoint Server 2010, interoperation is seamless. For example, a SharePoint Server 2010 workflow automatically
routes reports to various managers who may need to view information or perform actions on it. The Volvo Group also uses SharePoint Server 2010 to assist in training. Users of Project Web App can directly access a SharePoint site containing slide shows, cheat
sheets, and frequently asked questions about the project management software.
Furthermore, Volvo IT has made several customizations to help Project Server 2010 interact with other software packages. "Some customizations are small, such as macros in Microsoft Office Excel 2003 spreadsheet software," says Stéphane Perrin. "Others are
more complex. But we greatly appreciate the software's flexibility and the ability it gives us to do these customizations."
For example, one customization provides Project Server 2010 scheduling and time-reporting information to SAP. Another develops Project Server 2010 reports by querying databases in Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise data management software. A third
improves the sophistication of the dashboards that Project Server 2010 provides to executives. A fourth takes advantage of improved interoperation, which makes it easier to integrate information entered in Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Foundation Server
into Project Server 2010. Overall, the customizations fully adapt Project Server 2010 to the Group's time-reporting processes.
The Volvo Group uses Microsoft Project Server 2010 to make better capacity-planning decisions. It also saves time for employees through automated processes and a simple user interface, gains more visibility into projects, and improves resource management.
The Volvo Group uses the resource and portfolio management functions of Project Server 2010 to better manage its capacity planning. "With the tools in Project Server 2010, we can manage our portfolio of projects and our resources working on those projects
to maximize our capacity," Stéphane Perrin says.
Furthermore, the Group manages that capacity to build the organization's long-term strengths. "We use Project Server 2010 to gain more control over which projects we are starting and stopping, and when," Stéphane Perrin says. "This means we contract out
fewer assignments based on sudden demand fluctuations. Instead we base contracting decisions on the value the activities add to the organization." By contracting out fewer strategic activities, the Volvo Group can use less costly contractors. And by assigning
more strategic activities to its own employees, the Group builds internal strengths.
By automating more of the collection and dissemination of project management data, Project Server 2010 is saving employees time. For example, because of the integration with Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Foundation Server, employees no longer have
to enter information in multiple software applications. "The flexibility of Project Server 2010 has led to a great productivity enhancement for the employees who use Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Foundation Server," says Florent Gayet, Senior Consultant
at Teamsquare. Likewise, because of the integration between Project Server 2010 and SAP, time entered by Volvo Group personnel in Project Web App is automatically routed to the proper SAP module. Such customized links have reduced the time spent on these tasks
from an average of 25 minutes per employee per week to 15 minutes (a savings of 40 percent). At the same time, the reduced risk of mistakes has improved quality.
Most important, Project Server 2010 performs the data collection function that too often takes place in meetings. "Our employees can use Project Server 2010 to assign resources and activities, estimate completion dates, and report on progress. This means
that none of these activities have to be done in meetings," Stéphane Perrin says. "The data already exists, providing a base as the meeting starts. So now people can spend their time in meetings analyzing data, rather than collecting it, and making good decisions
based on that analysis."
Volvo Group employees appreciate the simple user interface of Project Server 2010. The rich feature set in Project Web App makes it easier for managers to perform their work. "In Project Web App it's very easy to find the action you want to perform," says
Gayet. "For example, the Timeline view makes it easy to report project status information." Also, Project Web App is more responsive and more stable than previous Web clients, because it does not depend on ActiveX controls.
The Volvo Group uses Project Server 2010 to gain better visibility into projects. For example, Gayet says, "With the Timeline view in Project Server 2010, managers can easily display project status, even pasting the timeline into a spreadsheet or an e-mail
message, which results in much better transfer of information." And with SharePoint workflows, they can publish reports and link to data throughout the system.
The result of these improvements in information and communication is a better understanding of projects, and thus more control over them. For example, Stéphane Perrin says, "With Project Server 2010, we are better able to anticipate whether a project will
be delayed. This gives us the opportunity to shape future contracting and distribution strategies."
With Project Server 2010, the Volvo Group gains a better view of its resourcing needs. "We can use Project Server 2010 to better anticipate whether we need more resources," says Stéphane Perrin. With that anticipation, the Group can better manage staff and
contractors. "For example, if you have to stop a project, Project Server 2010 makes it much easier to reassign people, because you know where they are and what they're doing. With better visibility into our resource assignments, we are able to reassign our
engineers and contractors in only a few weeks compared to a few months in the past."
Furthermore, the Volvo Group can more effectively communicate with members of the team. "It's important that resources see how their activities relate to a project as a whole," says Stéphane Perrin. "Too often you are asked to do something, and you do it,
but you don't have the awareness of why you are doing it or where it fits in the overall project. Now, with Project Server 2010, our resources can see that information for themselves."
Microsoft Project Server 2010
Microsoft Project Server 2010 brings together the business collaboration platform services of Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 with structured execution capabilities to provide flexible work management solutions. Project Server 2010 unifies project and portfolio
management to help organizations align resources and investments with business priorities, gain control across all types of work, and visualize performance through powerful dashboards.

Submitter (Perv): I'm sure you must have some pics of Meg in your archives but I havent seen any yet which surprises me. She is simply beautiful……….
My Response:
Here is where we part judgment, I'm afraid. If this site were called Perfect Face, she would pass and then some. Those eyes, those lips, those cheekbones - she is absolutely gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.
But alas, from a French Revolution point of view, we must judge her from the neck down (Distasteful Wit Alert).
Now, I have nothing at all against slim women. Heck, there are more than enough of 'em in my archives. But what I do have a problem with are spaghetti legs crowned by jutting hip bones. Yes, I know she's making the most of it here with what should normally be a curvy stance, but I'm just not buying it.
Ultimately, this is a straight-hipped skinny woman with not a great deal of toned female musculature. A good sign of this type of figure: When the spaghetti thighs look like they've been glued into the torso. It's also a good sign that if she ever ends up riding on top, you'll also spend a lot of time grinding your tool against a jutting pubic bone - one of the drawbacks of skinny women.
I should also make the point that these kinds of figures do not age well at all. Should she ever gain weight, it will likely be in all the wrong places. Those thighs will likely stay noodly even when the mid-section gets jellified. That's another problem with straight-hipped women. Youth usually obscures the figure problems that escalate once they hit their 30's.
That's why the Kim Kardashians of this world will have a far greater shelf life than the Paris Hiltons. Yes, any man could be content going at the likes of Kim for three or more decades. But to bed a bag of bones like Paris for that amount of time? My guess is that you'll be hitting the streets within a year or two of marriage to this kind of model, hunting the alleyways for anything curvy and syphillis-free for under $100.

The third Florida State player, and second consecutive Seminole, is off the board. With their second first-round pick, the Minnesota Vikings selected Xavier Rhodes, a star cornerback.
Some saw Rhodes as the top cornerback, or at least the second best cornerback in the draft. However, Rhodes is the third cornerback off the board, so this is a great value pick for Minnesota.
Some speculated that the Vikings would target Manti Te'o here, but instead with their two first-round picks Minnesota upgraded elsewhere on defense with Sharrif Floyd at defensive tackle and Rhodes in the secondary.
At 6'1", 210 lbs., Rhodes has great size as a corner to compliment his excellent ball skills. In his career, Rhodes picked off seven passes. However, just as impressive is Rhodes' ability to blitz and help in the run game.
The Minnesota Vikings take Xavier Rhodes 25th overall

PITTSBURGH (93-7 THE FAN) — Every Wednesday, Pirates' color analyst Bob Walk joins the Fan Morning Show.
This Wednesday, he talks about player development issues with the Pirates. Bob doesn't really have an issue with some of the things they are doing in the minor leagues. He said that when he was a player, they would do martial arts, and carry shovels over their heads, so he doesn't see it as being very unusual.
Bob tells us that the Pirates are doing as much as they can to teach their developing players fundamentals. And, like in last night's win over the New York Mets, if you hit home runs and get pretty good pitching, it covers up mistakes.
Bob joins the Fan Morning Show every Wednesday at 8:20 a.m.

The Miami Dolphins today agreed to a contract with former Arizona Cardinal CB Eric Green. Green, who will be 27 in the next month, was in Davie for a visit last week but left without a contract. The Dolphins have been in search mode for a corner since allowing Andre' Goodman to enter free agency.
The Dolphins have since allowed names like Jabari Greer, Shaun Springs, Leigh Bodden, and Bryan McFadden to sign elsewhere and two of those signed with inter-division rival New England. Green was the starting CB last season but lost his job to rookie Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. He eventually was moved to the 3rd CB on the depth chart and did not play a single down in the playoffs or the Super Bowl.
For the Phins, the signing of Green will not, or at least should not put an end to the speculation that the team will target a top corner in the draft on day 1 and possibly two corners. It does however mean that the team will not target recently released Carolina Panther corner Ken Lucas who is 30 years old.
Green has 33 starts under his belt in 4 years with the Cardinals since joining them as a 3rd round pick in '05. He will likely be the starting corner opposite Will Allen. While details of his contract have yet to be released, it is a multiyaer deal. From his 33 starts, Green has 6 fumble recoveries, 169 tackles, 31 passes defensed, but only 2 interceptions in his NFL career.

Dear followers!
It's slowly but steadily coming up to that very important date in this year's calendar: Cory's birthday! And while the 11th of May is still a bit in the distance, we thought we'd get an early start on a very special project for this year's birthday present.
After all, he doesn't get to turn 30 every year, right?
So here goes:
This year's birthday present is going to be a shirt. (Who'd have thought, eh?) But not just any shirt - not just something you can buy out there, but something very special: something personal. We are going to create a "Coryssshirts" shirt for Cory.
But when I am saying "we", I actually mean you. Anyone with the skills and the talent and the eye for coming up with an awesome design should feel free to submit their piece of art. So we are looking at you to put all your graphics talents to good use!
There are some rules to this: No pictures of Cory, no pictures of Glee or anything else he's been involved in - just something truly original that literally speaks to his unique fashion (t-shirt) sense. Something that just simply feels right, whether it's funny or not.
So send us your submission until the 28th of February. The design should be for the front only, and be large enough to match the writing on his "Can't Dance" shirt. It should be a zipped PSD file, uploaded somewhere and linked to. If you'd rather send it via email than upload it, hit our ask box and send us your email address so we can get in touch.
All submitted designs will be published a day after the deadline is reached, and you will all have one vote to decide which one will make the cut.
The winning design will be printed onto a white shirt (in a proper printing store), and then sent to him (we'll give the winner the chance to send us a short text to include on a card, to explain).
If anyone would like their own copy, we will approach the designer to see if more shirts can be printed - and sold (at minimal cost, covering printing, material and shipping). Possibly, this could be done with the 2nd and 3rd place winning submissions, if the submitters are okay with it.
How can you still contribute even if you don't have a shirt design?
Same as last year, we're giving everyone the chance to have their input. Unlike last year's project, however, we will ask you to simply send in an image of your own name in handwriting, which we will then add to the bottom hem of the shirt or the sleeves (depending on how many are there). Send these images in by the 15th of March, please.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to hit our ask box!

Just when you thought your day couldn't get any better, you find desserts made out of wool.
Just when you thought your day couldn't get any better, you find desserts made out of wool.
You'll probably gather form the title that Printing Friends magazine is all about litho fanatics hanging out and inspiring creative work, but for its seventh issue it's widened its remit to tackle more universal and accessible themes like illustration, photography, typography and personal stories. It's also travel-themed, meaning they've sent gangs of creatively-minded people off around the world to visit lands as far-flung as Austin, Texas, Johannesburg in South Africa and even Kyrgyzstan. Annoyingly Printing Friends is in Swedish so we don't have a god-damned clue what happened on these trips, so instead we'd like to focus on Snask, whose design expertise has shaped the look and feel of this new edition.
Cycling magazine Rouleur has always been about much more than spokes and lycra. The publication – which in 2012 released previously unseen photographs by Henri Cartier-Bresson – boasts a considered design aesthetic and stunning imagery, and is now celebrating the launch of its 50th issue with a cover designed by Sir Paul Smith. To mark this milestone, Rouleur's assistant editor Andy McGrath talks us through some of his favourite cover images and the stories behind them.
Salvador Dalí is known for his striking Surrealist paintings, forays into film and fashion and masterful moustache maintenance but, until now, not for his gastronomic talents. Few copies of his 1973 cookbook Les Diners de Gala were ever sold; perhaps potential purchasers were worried the book might mess with their minds, or they didn't fancy eating anything from the most French chapter imaginable – "Les spoutniks astiqués d'asticots statistisques" – dedicated to snails and frogs.
Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain is easily one of the most mythologised, eulogised and conspiracy-theorised musicians of the last century. Whether we consider his sad induction into the 27-club, his tumultuous relationship with Malaysia Airlines mystery-solving wallflower Courtney Love or the various mental and physical ailments that manifested themselves so intensely through his songs, Kurt's was a life destined for scrutiny.
Boasting PVC-clad bottoms, surreal jazz photography and beautifully-rendered risograph prints of basketball hoops, Shabazz Projects' homepage certainly offers a well-curated and striking experience. The LA-based publishing platform was founded by Hassan Rahim and Brian Okarski, releasing art, photography and design-focused books and objects, all with a run of 200 or fewer editions. Stand-out pieces include the Various Basketball Hoops risographs, which put a whimsical spin on these often weary-looking monoliths; and Eric Wrenn and Antje Peters' Jazz photographs, which place instruments against a dramatic plume of smoke. Hassan and Brian say their aim is to "provoke and surprise," and from the images on their site alone, they're certainly not letting themselves down.
In March this year we discussed the intriguing Middle Eastern publication The Outpost, one of the first independent titles from the Lebanon to be distributed internationally and in English. At the time the guys behind the design, Spanish/German/of no fixed address studio Rifle, didn't have a website so we couldn't show off any more of their portfolio. But since then they've managed to both finish work on another beautiful publication and squeeze a new website out into the world. Not bad!
If all the magazines and small publications that used the internet as their subject matter were dumped on your head it'd be curtains for you – there's bloody loads of them. Some, like Offscreen, deal with the people that make digital culture happen and try to bring these unsung heroes out from behind their screens into the RGB limelight, others, like French publication Nichons – Nous Dans l'Internet (Tits – We In The Internet) are more conceptually-minded, analysing and assessing the social and cultural phenomena brought about by the ubiquity of technology.
Lawrence Zeegen has never been one to mince his words. The illustrator, writer and dean of design at London College of Communication has recently launched his new book Fifty Years Of Illustration which he co-wrote with Grafik editor Caroline Roberts. It's an impressively ambitious undertaking with the duo condensing five decades into 1,000 images by 240 illustrators from 30 countries. Lawrence admits it's a "pretty personal selection" but one that aims to "represent the movers and shakers across each decade according to the work I believe was instrumental in shaping the discipline."
When photographer Maija Astikainen met writer Aischa Berg in Madrid back in 2010, the two bonded over their passion for community gardens. In fact so interested were the pair in this phenomenon that they decided to produce a book on the theme and four years later Horticultured Cities was published. This timescale reflects the assiduity with which both Maisha and Aiscah went about their research, and the publication features insights from London, Helsinki and Berlin as well as Madrid.
Since 2011 Catalogue have operated a design studio between London and Leeds, creating branding, exhibition design and print products for an incredible collection of cultural clients. They've handled Yorkshire's excellent Beacons Festival, popped up at Beach London, branded a tape-only record label and made British brand The National Skateboard Co. look seriously respectable. All great pieces of work.
Kennedy magazine describes itself as "a biannual journal of curiosities" and the Athens-based publication's second issue has recently been released. The look and feel has been overseen by Commission Studio, who are London-based designers and longtime friends of the site David McFarline and Christopher Moorby.
Anyone who's into niche magazines of yore will perhaps have heard of Scamp – the racy 1950s gentlemen's magazine that has since become something of a collectors' item. Fast forward 64 years and a very different Scamp has been born, and this one is "a brand new magazine full of chit-chat and arty-farty editorial projects." We were intrigued by this odd-sided, floppy publication, so we decided to speak to the editor Oskar Oprey to find out a little more about it.
The changing role of album artwork in a digitally-defined music culture has been much discussed; meanwhile the art of the gig poster seems to be in fairly rude health. But there's another story to be told; a lesser-examined but tremendously significant area of visual music-related collateral – the flyer.
