In response to a Dec. 13 FCW article on a report that said the government is decisively losing the battle for IT talent, a reader wrote:
"In a ploy to appease the masses, the government has decided to cut corners, and one of the simplest ones to cut is IT. And what's been cut the deepest is how they treat the people in IT, especially the people who do the work. So many will talk about how much is being spent in IT, but they balk at talking about the things they're doing to attract and keep IT workers. You end up with great servers being run by many unhappy administrators."
Reid Davenport responds: That comment demonstrates how difficult it is to clear the smoke of ambivalence and pinpoint how to refill the talent pipeline. Even though the report identifies compensation disparity as a major hindrance to employee recruitment and retention, its reasoning is backed by employee perception rather than concrete numbers.
How do you compare a worker's salary at Microsoft or IBM with one in the government? Do you base it on job title, experience, number of people managed or other factors? As you start going down the list of job details in order of tangibility, with compensation theoretically on top, it becomes less and less feasible to compare the public and private sectors.
Job culture and how IT professionals are treated are among the myriad complaints flung at government. But again, how can we decide whether Microsoft or the Department of Homeland Security treats its IT professionals better? If you say salary, we're back to square one.
This isn't to say that all comparisons between the public and private sectors are useless or naively simplistic, but rather that as issues concerning the federal workforce become less tangible, the margin of error increases.
There is, however, one measurable area other than compensation that the government could pay more attention to. At a time when science, technology, engineering and math jobs are supposed to land the big bucks, STEM's college majors are becoming more attractive. If the government is serious about filling the pipeline, it needs to find a way to recruit college graduates more effectively. Maybe that means creating more programs like the Presidential Innovation Fellows program, which attracts the best and brightest from the private sector in exchange for a prestigious resume line and an opportunity to effect real change in the public sector.

STEM graduates are great--but lots of the best IT people are Liberal Arts graduates. Learning IT doesn't necessarily take a STEM degree. Liberal Arts graduates have been taught to think--which helps in any job.
Mr. Davenport is taking refuge in what he desires to perceive as intangibles and incomparables. There is some merit to this, not because the issues discussed are incomparable, but because the hard work to compare them systemically has been neglected. It is perfectly feasible to align and compare private and public sector IT responsibilities for various positions. The government-side position descriptions, however, are lumped into '2210' or '1550', and local HR departments do not permit requirements in excess of the de minimus OPM definitions for GS-rated positions. On the private sector side, because the hiring manager is less constrained by law, the position descriptions are less clearly laid out, and less uniform.
Any reasonable study of public/private sector IT position comparisons, however, should look to individuals moving between positions - the actual history of comparable skill sets. The compensation calculations (including benefits package weighting) is quite achievable.
Culture and environment are comparable - the first-order statistics are turnover rates and job satisfaction rates. These are readily measurable. Beyond that, at least on the federal side, the job satisfaction survey dives deeper into particulars and subcategories. Similar surveys can be conducted on the private sector side - though it requires effort.
I would submit that these types of studies have not been performed, and are disparaged, because the federal sector will fare so poorly in the comparison. Particularly in the areas of job satisfaction and culture. Federal IT is sorely in need of a reboot, and that has to start with the capability of its management, and the culture they engender.

No way the Chargers beat the Pats, right? Right?
The Chargers showed grit in beating the Colts but face even bigger odds next week against the Patriots, writes Gene Wojciechowski.
Dear God, anybody but the Ravens.
The San Diego Chargers? Didn't we already beat them by, like, 100?
We're going to the Super Bowl!
Nothing against the Chargers, who faced every adversity here Sunday except locusts, but beating the one-and-done Super Bowl champion Indianapolis Colts is several floors down from trying to beat Tom Brady and the undefeated Patriots in the AFC Championship Game ... at Gillette Stadium ... in late January, with forecasters calling for temperatures in the mid-teens, tops.
Still, if the Patriots are smart -- and they are -- they'll understand what happened at the RCA Dome. They'll understand because they know how difficult it is to beat a Tony Dungy-coached and Peyton Manning-quarterbacked team in a place so loud that your ears bleed. They'll also know this isn't the same Chargers team that lost to the Pats by 24 in Foxborough, Mass., nearly four months ago.
"The way we're playing now, nothing can stop us," Chargers defensive end Igor Olshansky said. "The way we overcome adversity and everything else. I guarantee you that [Patriots coach Bill] Belichick and everybody else over there are scratching their heads saying, 'Man, we better get ready.'"
That's one possibility. Another possibility is that the Patriots could be thinking the same thing that Manning and the rest of the Colts are thinking after San Diego's 28-24 win: How?
Chargers tight end Antonio Gates, who arrived at the stadium wearing a protective boot to cover his dislocated left big toe, tried to play but was good for just 28 yards' worth of catches.
Chargers running back LaDainian Tomlinson injured his left knee midway through the second quarter, returned briefly, and then spent more time on a stationary bike than Lance Armstrong. He finished with 28 yards on seven carries.
Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers appeared to hurt his right knee on the final play of the third quarter and didn't play again. But before he left, he threw three touchdowns.
And those were just the injuries. The Chargers were also flagged for 10 penalties, including a phantom holding call during a San Diego interception return that cost the visitors a touchdown and the lead going into halftime. There was also an interesting pass interference call early in the fourth quarter that almost caused Chargers coach Norv Turner's head to explode.
Rivers threw an interception deep in Colts territory. Nate Kaeding doinked a Chargers field goal attempt off the right upright. Right guard Mike Goff had two false starts on the same drive -- a career first, he said.
And yet, the Chargers won. They overcame four Colts leads, three crucial injuries, Manning's 402-yard, three-touchdown day and a Colts crowd so overpoweringly loud that San Diego players said they couldn't hear themselves talk on the sidelines or on the field.
Afterward, Colts owner Jim Irsay found Chargers president Dean Spanos just outside the San Diego locker room.
"Congratulations, buddy," Irsay said. "Good luck to you ... It was a great victory for you guys."
He's right. The Chargers were supposed to lose to the Colts. Now they're supposed to lose to the Patriots.
"This is nothing new," Spanos said later. "Anybody can beat anybody on any given Sunday. Nobody gave us much of a chance today."
A year ago, the Patriots beat the Chargers at San Diego in these same AFC divisional playoffs. Then they beat them, 38-14, in the second game of this season. By the end of September the Chargers were 1-3 and fans were openly chanting, "Mar-ty," as a way to mock Turner and San Diego management for firing Marty Schottenheimer.
But now the Chargers have won eight consecutive games. And nobody is making fun of Turner anymore.
"I'm really happy for Norv," Spanos said. "It was tough the first month or so, for all of us."
FYI, Patriots: Turner said these Chargers are the best team he's had as a head coach. And he also said he's well aware of his team's underdog status.
"I saw one of these polls -- I don't know how accurate they are -- but 82 percent of America thought [we'd lose] this game," Turner said.
What will it be against the Patriots? Ninety percent? Close to 100?
"It's going to be a tough game, probably our toughest game we've ever played," Tomlinson said. "I'm pretty sure we'll be huge underdogs, and rightfully so."
But Chargers safety Eric Weddle, who intercepted a Manning pass just short of the San Diego goal line, offered a small bit of advice: "We are definitely a lot better team than the first time we faced [the Patriots]."
Better. Deeper. More experienced. Looser. Much looser.
With 12:38 left to play and San Diego leading by four, the Chargers offense waited to huddle during a TV commercial break. As they waited, several Chargers -- mostly 6-7, 336-pound offensive tackle Marcus McNeill -- started swaying and dancing to the music being played during the TV timeout.
"That's how it's supposed to be," McNeill said. "It doesn't make no sense to be at crunch time and your butthole is all tight."
Yes, well, that's one way to look at it.
The point is, the Chargers have suffered just about every indignity and here they are, a victory away from a Super Bowl appearance. From preseason favorites to football punch lines ... from a 5-5 record on Nov. 18 to a 13-5 record on Jan. 13 ... from injuries and penalties galore to an unlikely win against the defending Super Bowl champions on the Colts' field.
"Whatever happens, I think we can handle," said Rivers, who, like Tomlinson, is questionable for the AFC Championship Game. "This team can handle.''
All that stands in their way, Rivers said, is "arguably one of the best teams that ever played ... Seventeen have tried and it hasn't happened yet. We believe it can happen. All you can ask for is an opportunity."
Ask? No way. The Chargers earned it.Gene Wojciechowski is the senior national columnist for ESPN.com. You can contact him at firstname.lastname@example.com. He co-authored Jerome Bettis' autobiography, "The Bus: My Life In and Out of a Helmet," which is available now.

Let's say I have an output file that is expensive to make. It also requires an environment setup process that is also expensive to run. The recipe to create the output also creates an intermediate file that is then used to create the output file.
output_file :
expensive_env_setup ; \
Where generate_file also creates intermediate_file. Given the intermediate_file and the correct parameters, generate_file can resume generating the file, in the event that the second part of the generation failed.
What I am trying to do is allow resume building from the intermediate_file if the build process failed after generating intermediate_file. I don't want to split the build process into separate recipes since the environment setup is also expensive and this would make the build process longer for successful builds.
For example, I could do the following:
output_file : intermediate_file :
expensive_env_setup ; \
generate_file -resume intermediate_file
intermediate_file :
expensive_env_setup ; \
generate_file -intermediate intermediate_file
Where the intermediate_file recipe only generates that file, but this would mean that the environment setup process would need to be run twice.
Is there a way to signify that the output_file recipe may generate a particular intermediate file, and make will rebuild using intermediate_file recipe if the intermediate_file was generated but the output_file was not (ie the second part failed)?

NW Flower and Garden Show - Feb 20 - 24
Can one of you seasoned pros tell me how to insure entry into the seminars at the show?
I think I recall hearing something like they pass out tickets when the show first opens for the day? I remember years ago when I wasn't able to get in to the seminars due to the huge popularity.
according to the gardenshow dot com:
"If you havenâÂÂt been to the show in a few years, our seminars are now held in the spacious state-of-the-art Conference Center. Our larger rooms mean everyone gets a seat to hear our acclaimed speakers,no waiting in line and no passes required!
To find the seminars go across the skybridge, turn right onto any aisle and go to the back of North Hall. An escalator or elevator goes to the Rainier Room, Hood Room and the DIY Stage. The Book Signing Station is near all three rooms, along with restrooms. (Everything you need to stay for hours listening to our great lineup of speakers!) "
See you there, quillfred :)

Our new devotional "If God Loves Me, Why Did I Lose My Job?" explores the struggle of unemployment. Sign up here.
24:1–25 This chapter is a fitting conclusion to the books of Samuel. David is shown for what he is, a sinner, but a sinner who is ready to repent and to cast himself upon God's mercy (12:13 and note). Another appropriate note is the association of the threshing floor of Araunah (vv. 18–25) with Mount Moriah, the future site of the temple (1 Chr. 22:1; 2 Chr. 3:1; Gen. 22:2).

Jerry Baker tonics
What is your opinion of using Jerry Baker tonics on vegetable gardens.
A waste of time and often money!! And potentially detrimental to plant health and soil quality.
Honestly, it does depend on exactly what 'tonic' you are considering using -- some, like cayenne pepper, ARE moderately effective in discouraging critters like rabbits or deer. But none are the wonder products Baker would like you to believe they are. Sound, established gardening practices are always more desirable than homemade elixirs that promise to 'fix' everything. And many of his tonics could prove to be quite damaging if used excessively or incorrectly.
btw, as far as I know, Jerry Baker is a self-proclaimed "expert" (debatable) and has no relationship with any Master Gardener program. In fact, I believe he has trademarked the title of "America's Master Gardener". IMO, he is nothing more than a slick salesman that has focused his attentions - very profitably - on America's passion for gardening.

Lexie Barnes Kitty Circular Needle Case
I've been on a mission to find the perfect case to carry my circular knitting needles. I have the Denise Interchangeable Kit, and while there IS a time and a place for my Denise needles, I love my Addi Turbos. I have a pretty good sized collection of Addis at this point, and have been searching for a proper 'tool box' for my tools for some time now. A couple of years ago, Clara Parks, of Knitters Review, recommended a soft lure fishing tackle box for circulars. I followed suit quickly and bought a Field and Stream binder. While it worked, I was embarrassed to leave the house with my 'tool box'. I certainly couldn't take it with to teach a workshop. So, I continued to carry my needles onsie-twosie and misplaced them, and re-purchased them, and misplaced them, etc...
This past January, I visited the Lexie Barnes booth at TNNA San Diego. At long last, I've found THE circular knitting needle case: The Lexie Barnes Kitty. It measures a compact 5" x 15" when closed, but when I open the dual zippered case, I find 10 roomy pockets for circulars, plus an extra zippered pocket for stitch markers and other incidentals. The fabric is water-resistant with protective padding, And Lexie adds a complimentary pack of index cards for easy labeling of the pockets. I wrote my needle sizes in pencil, just in case I decide to reorganize.
For my smaller needles (like the US3s) I can fit two sets of circulars in one pouch. That works up to around US7s or US8s. These needles need their own pouches. I filled my case, with the exeption of only a couple of pouches. I guess its time to buy more needles!

A winter storm expected to hit Connecticut on Saturday could bring the first significant snowfall of the season.
The National Weather Service has issued a flash flood watch and coast flood advisory for Connecticut as forecasters expect heavy rain and possible thunderstorms.
It was water everywhere Tuesday evening in the Albany area. Fast moving waters across roadways caused numerous accidents and stranded vehicles as powerful thunderstorms passed over the Capital Region around 6 p.m. Many highways and downtown streets were under water. Several roadways closed as rescuers came to aid stranded motorists. The rain overpowered sewer systems. In Albany, water was seen gushing up from sewer grates along Hackett Blvd. Latham also was hit by severe flooding. Meteorologists were warning more rain could fall later in the evening.
This summer has seen its share of severe storms—tornadoes, thunderstorms, flooding. And now we're into hurricane season. We're here with National Weather Service Meteorologist Stephen DiRienzo to talk weather, weather preparedness, and to take your weather questions.
The National Weather Service has confirmed that a tornado destroyed homes and property in central New York, and killed four people.
Violent winds Tuesday clocked in at least 100 miles per hour in the Madison county town of Smithfield, between Syracuse and Utica, according to National Weather Service meteorologist Barbara Watson.
"It's going to be at least an EF2," Watson said.
There are reports of fatalities in the wake of a line of storms, including a confirmed EF2 tornado, that moved through western and central New York Tuesday night, bringing heavy rain and strong winds that knocked down trees, power lines and several buildings.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has issued its 2014 national spring flood risk report. The weather service is predicting an increased threat of spring flooding in Vermont and northern New York due to continued cold temperatures that have kept the deep snow from melting.
The National Weather Service is warning of an increased threat of spring flooding in Vermont because of the continued cold temperatures that has kept the deep snow from melting.
The National Weather Service says the late-season snowstorm is one of the top five largest March storms to hit the Vermont city of Burlington.
It was snow or sleet or a bit of freezing drizzle or even rain depending on where you live in the Northeast...
The National Weather Service in Albany reported a little over 11 inches on the ground in Albany... 8-14 inches in Greene County, 6-8 inches in Dutchess County, 8-12 inches in Ulster County and a little over 7 and half inches in Westchester County.
New York City had to contend with a coating of ice after snow turned to rain on Saturday night.
The storm dropped six inches on New York City's Upper West Side.

RCMP in the Woodstock area of New Brunswick say they've charged a young man with murder in the death of an 82-year-old woman who was found dead in her home on Saturday.
Police are investigating a home in Richmond Corner, N.B. after Sarah Kennedy's body was discovered early Saturday.
One of the neighbours told CBC News that she called Kennedy's family when she noticed the TV had been on for days, something the neighbour said was out of the ordinary for the victim.
When the family went to check on her, that's when the elderly woman's body was found.
Kyle Edmund Scott, 19, who lives in the Woodstock area was arrested Saturday. He was charged Sunday morning with second-degree murder.
Police said that Kennedy's vehicle was stolen from her home. They said Scott was arrested driving it.
Scott has been remanded into custody until his appearance in Woodstock Provincial Court scheduled for Thursday morning where he is expected to enter a plea.
An autopsy will be performed on Monday to determine exact cause of Kennedy's death.

Need opinion on situation
I have been dating my boyfriend for a year and a half. I am 51, he is 46. I have one daughter who is 15. He has three kids, twins - boy and girl 8 yo and one boy 10 yo. I have only been interacting with his kids since November (about 2 1/2 months), we have tried to do fun things in short clips (movie, lunch, playground). His sons are not adjusting well to the divorce. The older son has frequent crying meltdowns and has shown high anxiety related to routine activities like taking the bus or going to CCD. He has had a few full blown panic attacks and is now in therapy. The youngest son also shows significant separation anxiety ( if dad is in bathroom he sits outside the door, etc) he is now also in therapy.
Now for my question. We were given 4 tickets to a professional basketball game in our city - floor seats. I thought it was reasonable for him to go with his three kids. His daughter did not want to go but the sons were excited. When the daughter declined I said I would like to go. When he told the boys I was going the older one said he wanted it to be "only family, and if I was going then he did not want to go". I am sure there was crying involved. My BF said, fine and he would take them to another game without me. We had a big argument about this because I feel he is allowing a 10 yo to dictate and manipulate. I think he should have said it was fine for him not to go but the consequence is he would miss the game. I feel like he was rewarding rude and disrespectful behavior with another BB game w/o me. I think we could have offered to let the younger son bring a friend. I have seen quite a few instances where my BF will say to stop a behavior in excess of 5-6 times, kids ignore him, and he does nothing OR worse if the cry or pout he will placate them with a reward (candy, toy, etc). I think he is setting up for failure and worse behavior in the future. I would like to hear your thoughts. After reading some post I don't know if this has disaster written all over it. Also the ex is kinda crazy too.
"I have seen quite a few instances where my BF will say to stop a behavior in excess of 5-6 times, kids ignore him, and he does nothing OR worse if the cry or pout he will placate them with a reward (candy, toy, etc). I think he is setting up for failure and worse behavior in the future. "
I think you're quite right. IMO the kids have meltdowns because they have learned that that is what works for them, perhaps not consciously but it is what they have been conditioned to do. Already your boyfriend is reaping the whirlwind he has sown. If my DD had tried to set the rules I would have reminded her that the family is not a democracy and parental veto overrides all. Some latitude in decision making is a good learning experience for kids but in that particular situation it wasn't appropriate IMO, except for the son to decline to attend.
So, since the girl declined, is Dad going to take her on a special treat too? That would be the fair thing to do since he has set it up for the son.
I dunno. If you've been dating for 18 months (and presumably the divorce happened before that) and the kids still have meltdowns, perhaps it's time to reassess where this relationship is going.

"I was going to purchase a normal save the date but some friends persuaded us into getting magnets and I'm really happy they did! The quality of this magnet is great and the size is perfect! Would totally recommend."
"I was worried because I read a review that the colors were not as pictured online. I disagree. The background is beige, writing is brown, and top design is green. I'm really happy with my save-the-dates. They are really elegant and I highly recommend!! The only thing that was different than I expected was the size. (which to be honest, I didn't even read the dimensions before ordering). They are smaller than I had pictured them but I am actually happy about that."
"I loved when I received this shipment and opened the box to find just what I had ordered! The package was shipped and I recieved it in a timely fashion. My one complaint is that the magnets fold up on the ends making it difficult to seal the envelope. I would recommend flattening them before stuffing the envelopes."
"thank you weddng divas for timely and easy save the date and wedding invitations! You made everything simple and effortless!"
"The picture on the magnet was a wonderful quality. I wanted to add an additional line of text to the magnet which originally didn't fit. I left a note for the designers and they were able to add exactly what I wanted and sent me a proof for my approval! I got great complements from family and friends who said it was beautiful! I would highly recommend!"

Today we are excited to announce the worldwide release of Pink Mountaintops' new album, Get Back. Stephen McBean cites influences for his latest release as "Alleys, curbs, walls, and cigarette-stained gig flyers. An island on the Pacific coast. Fake British towns. Slayer posters. The beauty of youth. It's about listening to 'Driver's Seat' and 'Guns of Brixton' and hotboxing The Duster."
Joe Cardomone, known for his work with The Icarus Line, produced the new release. Get Back includes a wealth of talented Los Angeles musicians including J Mascis, Gregg Foreman, Daniel Allaire, Stephen Kille, and Rob Barbato. To finish up the record, Stephen called upon Randal Dunn who mixed it at Avast! Studios in Seattle and Howie Weinburg who mastered it in Laurel Canyon.
Listen to a preview of the new record above or on our Soundcloud here.
Read Interview Magazine's piece on Stephen where they interview him about leaving Vancouver for LA, the new album, and his early musical influences.
Get Back is available now via iTunes, SC Distribution, Amazon, and your local record store.
See what critics are saying about the new album:
"The record once again proves that rock is hard to define and often is whatever one wants it to be, at least as long as there's a guitar, youthful spirit, and maybe a stage dive involved."
- Popstache
"The Pink Mountaintops' fourth long-player is dense, difficult, intoxicating, and bereft of a single dull moment."
- AllMusic
"Stephen McBean is just one of those dudes, one of the many guys who inspires equal amounts of applause and jealousy because his projects always, in the truest sense of the word, rock."
- Music OMH

Arizona Diamondbacks
Anderson, D-backs capture series win over White Sox: By The Numbers
After the worst start in franchise history, the Arizona Diamondbacks appear to be turning a corner.
The latest chapter of that was Sunday.
Chase Anderson turned in 5.1 dominant innings in his MLB debut, Gerardo Parra and Miguel Montero both homered and the D-backs led coast-to-coast in a 5-1 win over the Chicago White Sox that sealed their third-straight series victory.
Here's a closer look at the win, by the numbers:
The win marked Anderson's first in the big leagues, as he tossed 5.1 innings, allowing just two hits and a run while striking out six in his MLB debut.
It took the D-backs just two batters to capture a lead in Sunday's game. After Parra led off the game with a flukey triple on a fly ball to left-center field, Martin Prado drove him in with a two-strike single for an early 1-0 lead.
Arizona has now won its last three series -- the last two of which came after dropping the series opener. The D-backs have taken series from the Padres, Brewers and White Sox -- all three on the road -- to start May. This is the first time Arizona has won three consecutive series since June 2012.
Four of the D-backs' five runs came courtesy of a pair of two-run homers from who may be the team's best hitters this month -- Montero and Parra. Parra went 2-for-5 with a triple and homer while MOntero went 2-for-2 with a pair of walks to raise his season average to .287.
The D-backs have now won seven of their last 10 games, which dates to a 5-4 win over Colorado on April 30 that avoided a sweep and snapped a four-game skid.
Diamondbacks reliever Brad Ziegler has now made 18 straight scoreless appearances after tossing a perfect eighth, a streak that spans 17.1 innings.
Anderson threw just 74 pitches in his big-league debut, but manager Kirk Gibson opted to replace him with Joe Thatcher after a four-pitch walk with one out in the fifth.
