Is There Really an 'I' in a DevOps Team?
Paul Muller, Damon Edwards, Tina Sturgis, HP
Feb 24 2015
60 mins
The answer is YES! The 'I' in team doesn't represent one single person in the apps development plan, rather it highlights the transformation of the once silo'd teams who support specific functions within the app lifecycle. The straight line of the 'I' symbolizes the one team approach that is making DevOps successful. Operations people are showing up in the testing phase of the application and the apps people are doing some measures and monitoring in operations. Recently, TechTarget named DevOps as one of six major data center trends for 2015. DevOps is no longer a new way to think about transformation; it is the ONLY way to bring together the silos that weigh down your business' bottom line.
Join our lively panel discussion with DevOps industry experts Paul Muller and Damon Edwards as they discuss:
Common problems in traditional DevOps teams
How these teams have changed to truly transform and become innovators
How you can apply these ideas to your business to boost your bottom line

Rick Perry says it was a 'mistake' for him to go to debates
Submitted by IKON on Wed, 10/26/2011 - 09:50Many political observers agree that Rick Perry's dismal debate performances have helped spark his dramatic collapse in recent polls. Now, not surprisingly, the Republican presidential hopeful insists his biggest mistake in the campaign so far was agreeing to participate in the forums at all.
"These debates are set up for nothing more than to tear down the candidates. It's pretty hard to be able to sit and lay out your ideas and your concepts with a one-minute response," the Texas governor told Fox News's Bill O'Reilly. "So, you know, if there was a mistake made, it was probably ever doing one of the [debates], when all they're interested in is stirring up between the candidates instead of really talking about the issues that are important to the American people.
i disagree i think his mistake was announcing his candidacy

My God
Is it possible Perry is actually right about something. Very scary. I wouldn't spread this around. As far as the one minute sound bites. How would he like to be Ron Paul who gets 30seconds, or none at all.
What a wuss.
- Login to post comments
I hope he stays in until after Iowa ...
My guess is that if Perry stays in, Paul finishes 1 or 2.
If Perry drops out and endorses Gingrich or Cain, Paul finishes 2nd or 3rd.
Man I hope Perry listens to his ego on this one.

I think Paul and Perry should
I think Paul and Perry should have a Lincoln-Douglas style debate.

Guess he'll be skipping the rest of the debates...
O wait, I guess he'll flip-flop and show up. Either way he's going down.

Ask Perry About Todd Willingham
Last night I was watching a show on PBS. It had to do with a man named Todd Willingham.
Todd was put to death for the crime of arrson..killing his 3 children in the fire.
Before he was murdered by the state, it was PROVEN that Todd Willingham was INNOCENT.
Enter Rick Perry...who stated that T.W. was a vial man because he beat his wife and deserved to die. True. TW hit his wife..but he never killed her..shes still walking around...and he did not kill his children.
He should have done some time for what he did to his wife...but he should NOT have paid with his life for a crime he did not committ.
If you do a bit of research, you'll find out that Perry FIRED the people that could have helped set Willingham free.
Heres one take on the story

If Perry
had some integrity and conviction rather than running in whatever direction the wind blew or didn't take bribes from corporations than maybe the candidates wouldn't have so much ammo to attack him with. Other Candidates pointing out your lies inconsistencies and immoral decisions is not being unfair to you. Stop playing the victim.
- Login to post comments
Eh, he's got a point
The debates are largely to stir up garbage between the candidates, float platitudes and generally provide for reality show entertainment.
I'm not giving Perry any sympathy or respect otherwise.

That's like saying - it was a mistake for the American people...
...to find out the truth about myself.
That's what these debates are all about.
They show your level of knowledge, intelligence and understanding of the role of government.
It's why Ron Paul always does so well and it's also why Sarah Palin didn't enter the race.
"We have allowed our nation to be over-taxed, over-regulated, and overrun by bureaucrats. The founders would be ashamed of us for what we are putting up with."

Reminds me of the saying....
It is better to keep your mouth shut and have people think you are a fool...than to open it and remove all doubt.
The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.

The funny thing is
that the media fauned all over him and gave him tons more time to speak than they gave others, and fed him softball questions to help him hit one out of the park.
Unfortunately for Perry, he has the intellectual capacity of a lost golf ball, and showed the world exactly that.
These "Ken Doll" candidates like Perry and Romney are better off if they say nothing, and let professional media people and PR people keep them insulated from the viewing public.
It is harmful to their image if anyone sees what's behind their cosmetic make-up.

Paul has gotten even less time and much more hostile treatment from the debate system than Bilderberger Perry, yet his debate performances boost him.

What's Nearby:
Additional Location Information
The apartment is located in the Oltrarno district in Florence's historic city. The name "Oltrarno" literally means "beyond the Arno" and this district which stretches along the south bank of the river represents a different facet of Florence to that which is found near the Duomo. The Oltrarno perhaps displays the true character of Florence and in general is slightly quieter, greener and more relaxed than the other districts of Florence. Indeed many tourists tend to choose the Oltrarno for this reason. Traditionally an artisans' quarter, the Oltrarno still boasts today many lovely antique shops and artisans' studios (particularly furniture and leather-workers) and Via Maggio remains the focus of Florence's thriving antiques trade.
Over time the Oltrarno became a rather chic area and many aristocrats chose this neighbourhood to build their villas and palaces, the largest of these being the Pitti Palace, which became the home of the various Grand Dukes. Today this sumptuous palace houses several important museums which rank amongst the best in Florence. Other major sights the Oltrarno has to offer are the Cappella Brancacci with the fabulous frescoes of Masaccio, Piazzale Michelangelo with its breath-taking views over Florence, the magnificent church of San Miniato, (one of the highest points in the city of Florence and also one of the best examples of Romanesque architecture within Tuscany) together with the most famous and oldest bridge in Florence, Ponte Vecchio, home to a glittering array of jewellery shops and goldsmiths.
Extending up the hill from the Pitti Palace are the formal Boboli Gardens, an outdoor museum of garden sculpture that includes Roman antiquities as well as 16th and 17th century works. The Oltrarno is famous for its wine bars such as Olio & Convivium, authentic trattorias serving typical Tuscan cuisine, including Il Santo Bevitore, I 4 Leoni and Il Magazzino, not to mention the wonderful fresh produce market held every morning in Piazza Santo Spirito. For those choosing an apartment in this area the Oltrarno quarter also offers a choice of grocery stores, patisserie, bakeries, gift shops and much more.

Kforce Reports Record Revenues Of $305.3 Million And Earnings Of $0.19 Per Share
TAMPA, Fla., April 29, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kforce Inc. (Nasdaq: KFRC), a provider of professional staffing services and solutions, today announced results for its first quarter of 2014. Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 were $305.3 million compared to $302.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013, an increase of 0.8%, and compared to $265.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, an increase of 14.9%. In the quarter ended March 31, 2014, Kforce reported net income of $6.2 million, or $0.19 per share, versus adjusted net income of $9.1 million, or $0.28 per share, which is defined as net income before an $11.9 million pre-tax realignment charge and a $14.5 million pre-tax goodwill impairment charge, for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. On a GAAP basis, Kforce reported a net loss of $8.2 million, or a loss of $0.25 per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Net income and earnings per share for the first quarter of 2014 increased 102% and 111%, respectively, versus net income of $3.1 million, or $0.09 per share, for the first quarter of 2013.
David L. Dunkel, Chairman and CEO, said, "We are very pleased with our performance in the first quarter of 2014, as Kforce achieved record quarterly revenues of $305.3 million and earnings per share of 19 cents. Our first quarter growth was broadly driven by the strong growth rates for our Flex staffing businesses in Tech, FA and HIM, which had year-over-year increases of 18.2%, 14.5% and 25.3%, respectively. We believe these growth rates continue to demonstrate the fruits of our relentless pursuit of gaining customer share."
Mr. Dunkel continued, "We believe that professional staffing has entered a new age with growth being driven by clients increasingly utilizing a flexible staffing solution to mitigate employment and regulatory risk, as well as the ubiquitous nature of technology today across our clients' business platforms. Against a backdrop of tempered GDP growth, we continue to see a disproportionate share of job growth coming from the temporary staffing sector. The temporary penetration rate is now at 2.06%, surpassing the prior all time high of 2.03%. Knowledge workers are in high demand as the unemployment rate among college-degreed workers is currently 3.4%, about half of the overall U.S. rate of unemployment, and is substantially lower in several of the skill sets Kforce specializes in, particularly in technology. We believe that these secular shifts in the labor market, along with our domestic revenue footprint, have positioned the Firm for even greater future success. I want to thank all of our clients, consultants and employees for making the first quarter of 2014 a very successful quarter for Kforce."

NEW YORK (AP) — "Mad Men" creator Matthew Weiner has a message for critics of season six of the AMC hit: "Fans don't run the show."
After waiting nearly a year for this month's premiere some viewers have expressed disappointment with the new season. Speaking ahead of a "Mad Men" panel event at the Paley Media Center in Manhattan Tuesday night, Weiner likened fan reaction to the show to the arcade game Whac-A-Mole.
"There's not enough agency advertising. There's too much advertising," Weiner said of previous fan gripes. "There's not enough Betty. There's too much Betty. Who is Megan? Why isn't there more Megan?"
Weiner noted people are still watching and advised fans to "sit back and enjoy where we're going." He said he opened the season in 1968 because he believes it was one of the worst years in U.S. history, and while he remained tight-lipped about where the journey is headed he did promise it "might be a little salacious, but that's what the show is."
Viewers did learn that ad man Don Draper (Jon Hamm) remains tormented and brooding and is now cheating on his new wife Megan (Jessica Pare). Weiner says he believes his lead character remains redeemable despite his flaws.
"We'll have to see what the world hands him and if he's able to confront a problem that's following him around that might actually be him," he said.

To be fair to Mike Comrie, he did allegedly ask for a trade at the trade deadline last season, before any of the alleged criticism.
Personally, I don't think it has to do with any conflict with management...I just don't think he can take the pressure a lot of the fans put on him with the whole "he's a local kid/the next big thing" talk that went through 2001-2002 that turned to venom after his injury/bonus chasing.
Not excusing him, obviously, signing a contract like he did then not living up to it, he was bound to piss people off, but I think it's a mistake to write this off as a whole management/Mike Comrie conflict.

Stourbridge Fair
1893 text
Sturbridge fair is of great antiquity. The first trace of it is found in a charter granted about 1211 by King John to the Lepers of the Hospital of St. Mary Magdalen at Sturbridge by Cambridge, a fair to be held in the close of the hospital on the vigil and feast of the Holy Cross (see Cornelius Walford's "Fairs Past and Present," 1883, p. 54).
This text comes from a footnote on a diary entry in the 1893 edition edited by Henry B. Wheatley.

Stourbridge Common isn't far from the centre of Cambridge (OS Ref TL470600) - it's now quite built up around there, with an industrial estate encroaching ...
'Casterton' in Pepys is now Chesterton; the 'Leper Chapel' is still there and is still used for services occasionally.

Fashion Lounge Review
Review by Jess McDonald
I went to Fashion Lounge with very high expectations. I don't know exactly what I was expecting (diamond encrusted chairs and a dfloor made of gold, perhaps?) but, often when you have high expectations you get let down.
I'm not saying that it isn't a good club, but there's a $20 entry fee ($15 on a guest list). There's a long line to even see the bouncers, and you'll most likely be turned away if you aren't on a guest list. This meant I was pretty darn excited when I finally got the chance to head through the front door and into the exclusive world which I was led to believe laid behind it.
Fashion markets itself as stylish, classy and upmarket and this does come across to some degree in the decor, but I wouldn't say that it's a huge amount more sophisticated than your average club. The bar has a marble bench top, there are white leather couches, gold lighting and gold ropes which section off the function areas.
The venue starts to get busy around 11. The crowd ranges from 20s to mid 30s and everyone is well dressed – shirts, dark jeans and dress shoes on the fellas and cocktail dresses and heels on the ladies (the place is called fashion after all).
If you arrive at Fashion too late, however, you will be struggling to see anything other than the sea of people packed together on the top floor. It was ridiculously crowded, and apparently that's the norm at fashion. So you can say goodbye to your personal space for the night and hello to the 5 people now invading it. And, lucky you met these people because if you get separated from your friends good luck trying to squeeze your way through the crowd to get back to them.
If you haven't booked a function area at Fashion Lounge then your chances of getting a seat inside seem to be pretty low as most of the seating areas are sectioned off for functions and stay this way all night. However, if you head downstairs to the Smokers Area your chances of getting a seat are much better. The Smokers Area itself is nice and big so non-smokers can actually go outside to get some fresh air instead of getting a face full of cigarette smoke.
Drinks at fashion are a bit pricey. (I was paying nine dollars for a glass of wine.) But again, Fashion is supposed to be classier than your typical club and therefore drinks are going to be more expensive. However, if you're keen to save money, they seem to have more specials on a Friday night. It's also free entry before 9:30 on both Friday and Saturday nights.
My advice would be to go to Fashion without the high expectations I had. Fashion is a great place for a special occasion, a birthday or other function; it's just not as fancy as I'd built it up to be in my mind. But in saying that, it's probably not the best place for having a messy night out – especially if you're on a budget.

A 2nd Review of Fashion Lounge
Review by Aisha Imran
VIP guest list – Check. Limo pick up – Check. This was my second consecutive Friday night visit to Fashion Lounge, a stylish and modern hybrid of a bar, runway, and club pierced together to cater for Melbourne's most fashionable (or pretentious). Conveniently located on Flinders Lane in the CBD, Fashion Lounge charges an extravagant $25 entry fee for walk-in 'commoners', with those on the guest list having to fork out $15 after 9:30pm. Lucky for me, those arriving in limousines arranged by the management team got in for free.
On the top floor, RnB music can be heard playing, with a little dance floor attached next to the bar. Comfy couches are tucked away on the other side, great for conversations and snacks. Downstairs, House and Dance music will keep your hips swaying, with a bar situation on the corner for those needing fuel and now wanting to make the climb up. Drinks are pretty standard – I had a jagerbom, sambuca shot, and bourbon and coke (all paid for); a quick browse at the price list – nothing stood out as being too extravagant.
Week in and out, the same faces stake claim on the dance floor, receiving plenty of attention and envious looks from those 'wannabes' trying to break into the 'cool crowd'. While there are obviously cliques within the crowd, it was not too uncomfortable, and everyone was quite inviting (this may be due to my VIP status).
Both ladies and gents dressed to impress (and stand out), with high split dresses, and cleavage baring tops, and almost everyone had an e-shisha in their hands (all the rave now). The fashion parade kicked off at 11pm, and went on for half an hour, with special guest Alexandra Jae putting her vocals to test, entertaining us with live music. As soon as the parade was over, everyone flocked to the dance floor to break some sweat, while the rest schmoozed and networked (attempted to at least).
I definitely got a work out dancing the night away and left at about 2am. Next Friday is already penned in for me to make a return to Fashion Fridays, and slowly make my way into the know. All in all it was another fun and extremely pretentious night (which is OK) and not a cent was spent.

A 3rd Review Of Fashion Lounge
Review by Nick Bartholomeusz
Despite a congested entrance way and hefty $25 entry fee after 12:00am, reaping a small fortune of my week's income, Fashion Lounge proved to offer a great night, compensating in a number of small, crowd pleasing ways.
Fuelled by a sexually charged theme, entry was met by a narrow corridor and welcomed by a courtesy blow up doll. Yep, you guessed it, a sex doll. Welling with excitement after an extensive wait, I was pounded by the loud and heavy bass as I made my way through the top level of the dancefloor. I was indeed within my element.
Regardless of the good times, vibes and musical prowess offered upstairs, I followed my more travelled friends to the real party downstairs on the basement level. Marked by a similar sound that is a proven crowd pleaser, the downstairs area opens into a far larger dance arena, which connects to an outdoor corridor, supporting both smokers and those suffering from the intense humidity.
Pleasantly, both levels emulate a fantastic array of electronic musical talents, while limiting the genres to Trance and Bangers. However, despite the limited mix of musical categories, each and every one of the predominantly Asian-Australian crowd could not help but wave their arms, bop their head and bust some moves. With the exception of myself and possibly a few others, the majority crowd consisted of Asian youth, between the ages of 18 and 26. While the DJs were also seemingly of Asian descent, they were also quality Melbourne DJs.
Marketed as a plush, exclusive and opulent nightspot, the illustrious image of Fashion Lounge was severely damaged when the 12:30am, red headed stripper came out to play, boasting her gymnast-like flexibility, wearing nothing but glittered panties and nipple tassels. Despite the tarnished reputation, Fashion Lounge will survive. Providing visual pleasure for a number of gentlemen, and entertainment to say the least for the ladies, the employed erotic dancers (male and female) only enhanced the sultry themed night.
While I can appreciate a densely populated club with an even ratio of well dressed, attractive boys and girls, the sheer number of patrons can make even the easiest task of getting a drink at the bar the most challenging. Given the strenuous nature under which my drink was acquired, the $15 fee for a Jagerbomb didn't seem like a loss at all, but more an accomplishment. Untimely accomplishments can be felt throughout the entire night, as all areas of the club are filled to the brim. Unfortunately the club's single available bathroom is located on the stairwell, midway between the upstairs and downstairs area. Although my bathroom travels went undisrupted, I imagine it may be difficult for women, as lines can build fast.
Although my night was kick started by a long wait due to an after 12am arrival, Fashion Lounge proved to be an enjoyable second experience. Given my relatively sober state, it is easy to say that the potential for an amazing night at Fashion is limitless… Provided you can get to the bar before you sober up again.

Ballotpedia's coverage of elections held on March 3, 2015, was limited. Select races were covered live, and all results will be added once the merger is complete.
San Jose Pension Reform, Measure B (June 2012)
Litigation to keep the measure off the ballot is ongoing and as of a ruling on Thursday, April 5 by a three-judge panel for the 6th District Court of Appeals, there is a stay on printing any ballots.[2]
According to a 2010 audit by the city, the amount that the city pays every year for the retirement plans of its retired workers has risen from $73 million in 2001 to $245 million in 2011. Over the last two decades, the amount paid by the city in total pension benefit payments has grown sevenfold. The amount that is paid out of the account every year has been exceeding the amount paid in for over 10 years. The city's 2010 audit also says that the city is about $2 billion short of the amount that should be in the account to pay for future benefits.[1],[3]
- Chuck Reed, San Jose's mayor, is a leading supporter of the pension reform measure. He began advocating for pension reform in the city in early 2011. Scott Herhold, a Mercury News columnist, says, "Make no mistake: The proposal that San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed unveiled...to curtail retirement and health benefits for city employees will define his mayoral career."[4]
- Jeff Cristina, director of Environmental Services at GreenWaste Recovery in San Jose, supports the measure.[1]
- County Assessor Larry Stone says he supports the measure because "We need significant reform, not just incremental reform. Why? Because the current system is unsustainable."[1]
- City Councilman Pierluigi Oliverio.[5]
- Bay Area Council [6]
The measure is opposed by the city's public sector employee unions. In a statement released by five unions after the vote to place the measure on the June ballot, the unions said, "the mayor and his supporters scored some political points today, but only time will tell what the ultimate cost to our city will be."[1]
Ballot text
The question on the ballot:
MEASURE B: To protect essential services, including neighborhood police patrols, fire stations, libraries, community centers, streets and parks, shall the Charter be amended to reform retirement benefits of City employees and retirees by: increasing employees' contributions, establishing a voluntary reduced pension plan for current employees, establish pension cost and benefit limitations for new employees, reform disability retirements to prevent abuses, temporarily suspend retiree COLAs during emergencies, require voter approval for increases in future pension benefits?[7] |
Path to the ballot
The San Jose City Council voted to place the measure on the June 5, 2012 ballot in a meeting on March 6, 2012. The vote was 8-3.
Chuck Reed, Pete Constant, Pierluigi Oliverio, Madison Nguyen, Sam Liccardo, Rose Herrera, Donald Rocha and Nancy Pyle voted in favor of placing the measure on the ballot.
Ash Kalra, Kansen Chu and Xavier Campos voted against placing the measure on the ballot.[1]
- See also: 2012 ballot measure litigation
Removal from ballot
On March 16, a lawsuit was filed against the City of San Jose, arguing that the measure should be removed from the June ballot because the ballot question written to describe it isn't neutral.[8]
The plaintiffs in the lawsuit are:
- Robert Sapien, president of the San Jose Fire Fighters Union
- Franco Vado, a police officer in the city
- Karen McDonough, an environmental service specialist
- Clifford Hubbard, a retired firefighter[8]
Robin Johansen of Remcho, Johansen & Purcell is the attorney working with the plaintiffs. In the complaint, she says, "The code says it has to be fair and impartial, not an argument for the measure. When you look at the kinds of emotionally laden words -- reform and abuse, essential services -- those are very strongly worded phrases intended to get people to vote for the measure."[8]
Chuck Reed said, of the lawsuit, "They're doing everything they can to try to keep the voters from considering the ballot measure. So this is just another step."[8]
The case was heard on April 3.[9]
On Thursday, April 5, a three-judge panel of the Sixth District Court of Appeal issued an order to prevent the printing of any ballots while litigation is pending. Johansen, the lead attorney for the plaintiffs, said, "We are pleased that the 6th District Court of Appeal will consider our emergency writ seeking to ensure that the ballot question for Measure B is impartial and complies with California election law."[2]
Possible outcomes as of the April 5 ruling are:
- The court could change the ballot question's language but order that the election still be on June 5.
- The court could say it needs more time to consider the matter and in which case, the election would likely not be on June 5 but instead on some future ballot after the court has given itself the time it says it needs to consider the ballot language.
- The court could deny the plaintiff's demand and the vote on the ballot measure could take place on June 5.[2]
Voter guide arguments
On March 23, Beth Roth (the campaign treasurer for Measure B) and Pete Constant (a San Jose city council member) filed a lawsuit seeking to have six statements removed from the "arguments against" section of the official voter guide.[10]
Their complaint says that Measure B opponents smuggled "false and misleading" statements into their argument against Measure B.[11]
The six statements/phrases that Measure B supporters seek to have removed on the grounds that these statements are false are:
- "It could eliminate disability retirements for police and firefighters injured on the job and unable to perform their previous duties, it increases by thousands of dollars the amount widows and seniors pay for promised health care, and the City admitted that Measure B may not be constitutional because it violates employees' vested rights."
- "But city officials never even tried to offer taxpayers a way to achieve any savings that would stand up in court."
- "City workers recently took 10%-18% pay cuts."
- "Employees proposed dozens of legal pension reforms that would have increased retirement ages, reduced benefit levels and lowered COLA's. Police and fire even proposed to cut pensions back to 1962 levels."
- "politicians unsuccessfully tried to declare a fiscal emergency"
- "This pattern of inaccurate financial projections, meant to scare voters..."

Gwen Stefani Hosts Michelle Obama in LA Pictures
Obama Supporters Line Up For Gwen Stefani's LA Fundraiser
400+ guests congregated at Gwen Stefani's Beverly Hills home yesterday at a fundraising event for the Obama campaign. Gwen and some of her No Doubt bandmates hosted Michelle Obama, who mingled with stars like Nicole Richie, Joel Madden, and Alyson Hannigan. It was the first of two major West Coast fundraisers for Mrs. Obama, who is also expected to drop by The Tonight Show later today.
In addition to the first lady's visit, it was a busy weekend for Gwen and sons Kingston and Zuma Rossdale. Gwen stopped by a friend's for a visit on Friday, then dropped by a flea market on Saturday for a little shopping with the boys. While perusing through vintage furniture and clothing she picked up a red umbrella and then later headed to the beach for more fun with her favorite guys.
