Humiliating 1-7 defeat We need to get over this setback. A real blow to confidence
Billy McKay scored five times as Caley Thistle eased to a 7-1 victory against Second Division Arbroath at Gayfield last night. The Northern Ireland international scored a quick-fire hat-trick in the space of seven minutes before adding a fourth with only 31 minutes elapsed.

Death penalty for Egypt's Mubarak: How will that play with the tin-pot despot set?
(Read article summary)Egypt's former president Mubarak could face the death penalty in his trial. In Africa, several authoritarian leaders have ruled for decades, and harsh sentences could encourage them to cling to power by any means.
Khalil Hamra/AP
Egypt's long-ruling former President Hosni Mubarak may face the death penalty if found guilty in his ongoing trial in Cairo. Mr. Mubarak is accused of ordering the killing of protesters during the Tahrir Square demonstrations that ultimately led to the downfall of his government in February.
Sending Mubarak to the gallows may feel like a good signal to send to strong-man leaders – that their misdeeds in office will be judged, and judged harshly, in courts of law.
But history shows that hard sentencing for bad leaders can sometimes backfire.
For every leader who steps down peacefully after a few terms in office on the African continent, there are many others who take the president-for-life package. Some, especially those who rose to power by leading armed independence movements, remember the brutal death of late Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi, and plan to stay in power as a way to stay alive. Others look at the prosecution of former Liberian President Charles Taylor and the expected trial of former Ivory Coast President Laurent Gbagbo on human rights charges at The Hague, and worry that they too could face a lifetime in prison.

Ive always been a personal security kind of guy. My house is secure, my family is secure and Im suspicious of everyone (to an extent). Just because Im paranoid, doesnt mean they arent out to get me. Since the birth of my son 9 months ago, Ive been more interested in community safety. Ive lived in my house for 3 years and I know my 2 immediate neighbors well and maybe 3 others. This is my own fault due to being a little anti social. I am interested in starting a block watch in my area though. I looked on the city Association of neighborhoods site, emailed the head guy and found out there is no group for my area. Upon his suggestion, I attended the AoN meeting last week. This was of limited use to me. I went on the National Crime Prevention Council website, Neighborhood Watch — National Crime Prevention Council, and downloaded a bunch of PDF files for info. I also looked up the National Sex offenders registry for more info, National Sex Offender Registry. I guess I have to make some copies, come up with a plan of action and go out and meet my neighbors, door-to-door. I also have to get in contact with the LEO incharge of these groups and see if he has any more info for me.
Has anyone done this? Is anyone a member of a block watch group? Im not the most outgoing guy but, I feel the need to keep our quite, nice neighborhood, quite and nice.

FRIGO® No.1 Revolutionizes Men's Underwear
PR Newswire
NEW YORK, April 10, 2012
Patented Technology Provides Unparalleled Support and Comfort
NEW YORK, April 10, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Introducing FRIGO® No.1, an unparalleled evolution in luxury performance men's underwear. It was developed with patented technology and provides incomparable freedom of movement. Created by a European team of experts and wear-tested by a panel of men across the globe, FRIGO No.1 incorporates high-end, high-tech design with superior athletic support into the silhouette of a boxer brief.
FRIGO No.1's patented signature feature, the FRIGO Zone™, is an adjustable mesh pouch that provides ultimate support, coupled with the perfect fit. The game-changing FRIGO No.1 offers stabilization through its high performance textile liner, and a soft lock system adjusts the pouch for a custom fit.
"FRIGO No.1 is a new breed of underwear – a complete evolution," says Mathias Ingvarsson, Chief Executive Officer of RevolutionWear™, the firm behind the brand. "Once a man tries a pair of FRIGO No.1, he will never be satisfied with ordinary underwear again. Until it was developed, there wasn't a company in the world that truly understood how to bring luxury and performance to men's underwear. Now there is."
The FRIGO No.1 line was designed in conjunction with the leading athletic research team at Progressive Sports in Europe. Every element of FRIGO No.1 addresses specific concerns that men constantly face, including cinched waistbands and slippage. The design team leveraged advances in fabrication to ensure a flawless fit. Seams are lap-bonded to minimize bunching. The leg openings use specially produced Stay4sure® hem stabilizers, which hold FRIGO No.1 comfortably in place – for ease of movement, no matter how dynamic the activity. Additionally, the body contouring fit reduces muscle vibration during vigorous exercise.
Active men appreciate the product's attention to the male sweat points. Thanks to a unique combination of superior wicking properties and laser-cut vents strategically placed around the lower back, no other underwear is better at keeping a man comfortable and dry as FRIGO No.1. In fact, celebrity trainer Michael George said, "The ventilation and the adjustable mesh pouch in this underwear are very well thought out. This is a product that the market has not seen before and one I would certainly recommend to my clients and other trainers."
Technology has transformed performance and fit in sportswear in the last decade, and RevolutionWear is pioneering the tech-savvy upgrades worn in the gym into underwear for everyday use. FRIGO No.1 performs as well during a long day at the office, as it does during an extra-inning game.
To purchase one of the first pairs of FRIGO No.1 luxury performance underwear, or to learn more about its technical innovations, please visit: revolutionwear.com.
About RevolutionWear, Inc.
FRIGO's parent company is RevolutionWear, Inc. It combines innovative design with technology to create radically different, superior products for global distribution.

b. 1802 Lille, France, d. 1872 photographer French
Louis Désiré Blanquart-Evrard was a cloth merchant from Lille, France who learned the calotype process from his druggist, a student of the inventor of the calotype, William Henry Fox Talbot. In 1847 Blanquart-Evrard became the first to publish the procedure for the calotype negative/positive paper process in France. He specialized in printing and issuing portfolios of photographs by other photographers, but perhaps his most significant contribution was the introduction in 1850 of the albumen paper print process, the primary printing medium until gelatin papers superceded it in the late 1800s. Once a painter on ivory and porcelain, Blanquart-Evrard sent examples of his experiments with negative/positive paper processes to the Great Exhibition at the Crystal Palace in London in 1851. A note attached to a frame explained: "These prints were obtained by a new process which makes it possible to produce two or three hundred prints from the same negative the same day in rainy weather." That same year Blanquart-Evrard started a printing company, the Imprimerie Photographique , to mass-produce photographic prints by other photographers, including John Beasly Greene, Charles Marville and Henri Le Secq. He later founded the successful and influential Blanquart-Evrard Printing Company for the same purpose.

My M. polythele surprised me when it flowered: I didn't know the distinguishing feature of this species is that it flowers either from the axils (like most of Mammis) or from the tubercles (this should the ancient way the first Mammillarias used to flower). The flowers from the tubercles are smaller than the others. Alessandro |

'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' and 'Snow Day' Battle It Out for Back-To-School Supremacy
Features By Nathan Adams on September 11, 2012 | Be the First To CommentFerris Bueller's Day Off is one of those classic comedies, the kind that's looked at as being timeless, the kind that, no matter what year it is, you can guarantee is currently being played in college dorm rooms all over the country. It works both as '80s nostalgia and as a story that modern kids can relate to. It's full of quotes and images that have become oft-referenced parts of our pop-culture vocabulary. But, is this tale of a lazy schemer ditching school to spend a day in Chicago with his hot girlfriend and downer of a best friend really all that funny? Or is it just one of those movies that managed to tap into the zeitgeist of its day, and then rode out its initial juice long enough that it's become cultural comfort food due to widespread re-watches? If people remember Snow Day at all, it's likely they remember it as a movie for kids that they didn't bother seeing. But the few people who have seen it realize that, though it's a film primarily aimed toward children and tweens, Snow Day is still a satisfying comedy that provides just as many laughs, memorable characters, and affecting moments as any comedy aimed at adults. Which should come as no surprise, because it was put together by a group of guys who worked on the amazing Nickelodeon show The Adventures of Pete & Pete. So, given the cult status of that show, why is it that I never hear […]
Movie News After Dark: Ferrell Recall, Emmy Sadness, Pete and Pete and The Sean Bean Death Reel
Movie News By Neil Miller on July 14, 2011 | Comments (1)What is Movie News After Dark? It's a movie news column that wonders: "does your daddy know that it sneaks into your room every night?" In a slightly less creepy description, it's a column that, as of tonight, is of two minds: one that thinks about movie news and is seemingly on vacation, and another that is all about television. Like The Adventures of Pete and Pete. No, seriously. Tonight's top story is an imperfect first look at Colin Farrell in the Len Wiseman directed reboot of Total Recall. Some sites are dedicating primo space to such an image, so I thought I'd throw it up there because it's a decent sized fish on a day where news has been flowing into our nets plentifully. In other non-fishing references, the Total Recall character looks a lot like plain old Colin Farrell. Nothing to see here, I suppose.

Papal Address to Assembly of Council for Migrants
"Christians Must Open Their Hearts to the Lowly and the Poor"
VATICAN CITY, JUNE 7, 2006 (Zenit) - Here is the address Benedict XVI delivered to the participants in the plenary assembly of the Pontifical Council for Migrants and Travelers, held May 15 in the Clementine Hall.
* * *
Your Eminences,
Venerable Brothers in the episcopate and in the priesthood,
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
I am pleased to welcome you on the occasion of the plenary session of the Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Migrants and Itinerant People. First of all, I greet Cardinal Renato Martino, who I thank for the words with which he introduced our meeting. I also greet the secretary, the members and the consultors of this pontifical council and especially those recently appointed, and I address to all a cordial thought with best wishes for the success of your work.
The theme chosen for this session -- "Migration and Itinerancy from and toward Islamic Majority Countries" -- concerns a social reality that is becoming ever more present. Therefore, human mobility with regard to Muslim countries calls for a specific reflection, not only because of the extent of the phenomenon, but above all because the Islamic identity is both religious and cultural.
The Catholic Church realizes with increasing awareness that interreligious dialogue is part of her commitment to the service of humanity in the contemporary world. This conviction has become, as one says, "daily bread" especially fit for those who work in contact with migrants, refugees and with different categories of itinerant people.
We are living in times in which Christians are called to cultivate a style of dialogue open to the religious question, without failing to present to the interlocutors the Christian proposal consistent with her own identity. So, one increasingly feels the importance of reciprocity in dialogue, reciprocity that the instruction "Erga Migrantes Caritas Christi" rightly defines as a "principle" of great importance. It treats of a "relationship based on mutual respect," and before that on an "attitude of heart and spirit" (No. 64).
The importance and delicacy of this commitment is witnessed by the efforts that are made in many communities to weave relations of mutual awareness and esteem with immigrants, which appear ever more useful to overcome prejudice and a closed mentality.
In its action of reception and dialogue with migrants and itinerant peoples, the Christian community has as its constant reference point Christ, who left to his disciples, as a rule of life, the new commandment of love. Christian love is, by its nature, prevenient. This is why single believers are called to open their arms and their hearts to every person, from whatever nation they come, allowing the authorities responsible for public life to enforce the relevant laws held to be appropriate for a healthy coexistence.
Continually stimulated to witness the love that the Lord Jesus taught, Christians must open their hearts especially to the lowly and the poor, in whom Christ himself is present in a singular way. Acting in this way, they manifest the most qualifying characteristic of their own Christian identity: the love that Christ lived and continually transmits to the Church through the Gospel and the sacraments.
Obviously, it is to be hoped that Christians who emigrate to nations with an Islamic majority will also be welcomed and their religious identity respected.
Dear brothers and sisters, I willingly welcome this occasion to thank you for what you do in favor of an organic and efficient pastoral service for migrants and itinerant peoples, putting your time, your competency and your experience at this service. May it escape no one that this is a significant frontier in the new evangelization in the current globalized world.
I encourage you to pursue your work with renewed zeal, while, for my part, I follow you with attention and I accompany you with prayer, so that the Holy Spirit may make your initiative fruitful for the good of the Church and the world.
May Mary Most Holy watch over you, she who lived her faith as a pilgrimage in the different circumstances of her earthly life. May the Holy Virgin help every man and every woman to know her Son Jesus and to receive from him the gift of salvation. With this wish I impart my blessing to all of you and to those dear to you.

Lean IT Summit 2014 : performance and people
October 26, 2014
The Lean IT summit 2014 happened earlier this month and as usual it has been inspiring and fun. Inspiring as it was an opportunity to listen to stories from leading figures of the lean/agile community (Jeff Sutherland, Mary Poppendieck, Daniel T. Jones) or from major companies of the 21st century (Amazon, Spotify, ING direct, Nike and, of course, Toyota).
And it was fun because hanging out with the likes of Mike Orzen, Michael Ballé, Jeff Gothelf, David Boagerts and my colleagues at Operae Partners (disclaimer, the company I work for co-organizes the event) always is.
Lean IT Summit 16 et 17 Octobre
October 6, 2014
Les inscriptions sont toujours ouvertes pour le Lean IT Summit des 16 et 17 octobre. C'est une occasion unique de rencontrer des grands noms du Lean et de l'Agile réunis cette année à Paris :
- Jeff Sutherland, inventeur de SCRUM
- Mary Poppendieck auteure de "Lean Mindset" and "Lean Software Development"
- Jeff Gothelf, auteur de Lean UX
- et Dan Jones, l'inventeur du mot Lean.
Transformation Digitale : le Lean comme évidence stratégique
August 27, 2014
Lorsque j'ai décidé l'an dernier d'infléchir ma carrière professionnelle pour me diriger vers le conseil, deux chemins se présentaient, tous deux prometteurs : Entreprise 2.0/Social Business d'un côté, Lean de l'autre.
Au terme de longues réflexions, j'ai choisi la seconde option car elle me semblait plus profondément en phase avec les enjeux des entreprises d'aujourd'hui, à savoir la nécessité de naviguer dans les turbulences du monde incertain qui est le nôtre. Ces turbulences et ce monde incertain sont en grande partie liés à la digitalisation de notre quotidien : la transformation digitale (ou numérique) des entreprises semble donc inéluctable.
Le Lean m'apparaît aujourd'hui comme l'évidente stratégie pour mener à bien cette transformation, pour les raisons suivantes :
- la transformation digitale correspond à une radicalisation de l'exploitation de nouvelles opportunités technologiques,
- il s'agit avant tout de principes de management
- un modèle existe, il s'agit des entreprises nées numériques (Google, Amazon, Facebook, Pixar, Twitter etc. …)
- leurs cultures de management sont toutes, explicitement ou implicitement, alignées avec les principes du Lean.
- (oh : et l'Entreprise.fr part avec un handicap culturel dans cette transformation)
(Je vous écris un long billet car je n'ai pas le temps d'en écrire un plus court, paraphraserais-je Pascal : attention, plus de 2000 mots)
I had a second article published today on InfoQ : Seven changes to remove waste from your software process.The first one being quite popular (a few weeks in the site top articles) Ben asked me to write another one, which I gratefully did.
It can be seen as another technical (and, I hope, actionable) article on my journey towards Lean while scaling agility to a full organization.
Thanks to Ben Linders for editing and Ana Maria Ciobatoru for her work in making it look great.
I have been in charge of implementing Lean Software Development in a software vendor house for about 2 years. During this time I have been coaching a large team throughout the development of two successive versions (let's call them V2 and V3) of our enterprise solution.
We have gradually implemented seven major changes in our organization that have helped our R&D department to remove waste from our software development process with encouraging results. This essay is about implementing these seven changes, the results we obtained and what we have learned during the journey.

#hypertextual on InfoQ
April 7, 2014
One of the misconceptions I've made while working with software development teams using agile methodologies is that I initially confused bugs with problems and I tended to believe our agile process was Lean, as it made bugs visible. During the last few months, this idea has cleared up a bit and, in retrospect, I now believe that our agile team producing bugs was not a Lean system producing learning opportunities : it was a team having quality problems, which is something I have seen with many teams.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is a huge honor for me to announce that I have an article published on InfoQ.
Back in the days when I was an airline mainframe developer whose career had been violently hit by Spetember 11, I was desperate to switch to Java professional world and was an avid reader of theserverside.com. Floyd Marinescu was its creator. He also later became the author of EJB Design Patterns – one of the first book where I read something linking the way we work with the quality of life (even if one may argue that it might be challenging with EJB, anyway …).
In 2006 he went on to create InfoQ with a strong focus on agile methodologies : it soon became my main source of information of all things agile. Having an article published on this site is probably as great an honor for me as it would be to jam with Johnny Marr.
The article, a rather technical one, is about the path I followed while slowly moving from Agile to Lean as I was getting to understand the key role of problems in continuous improvement. It also somehow is a more detailed follow-up of a previous article on Agile and Lean.
Many thanks to Regis Medina for introducing me to Ben Linders, to the latter for his great editing work and to Ana-Maria Ciobotaru for making it look neat and professional.
3 rules to save your IT project
March 27, 2014
This is an excerpt from Time article about "How an unlikely group of high-tech wizards revived Obama's troubles HealthCare.gov website".
This excerpt focus on the three rules theses wizards apply when rescuing the project a set of IT services companies has lead to disaster. All Agile principles : stand-up meetings, developers get the call, get managers out of the way, solving problems completely, reduce work in progress etc …). An awesome story.
Rule 1: "The war room and the meetings are for solving problems. There are plenty of other venues where people devote their creative energies to shifting blame."
Rule 2: "The ones who should be doing the talking are the people who know the most about an issue, not the ones with the highest rank. If anyone finds themselves sitting passively while managers and executives talk over them with less accurate information, we have gone off the rails, and I would like to know about it." (Explained Dickerson later: "If you can get the managers out of the way, the engineers will want to solve things.")
Rule 3: "We need to stay focused on the most urgent issues, like things that will hurt us in the next 24–48 hours."
