UNDP in India: Results from 201113 Mar 2012
The UNDP India Annual Report for 2011 highlights results of UNDP's partnership with the Government of India and other stakeholders across our five programme areas-poverty reduction and livelihoods, democratic, decentralized governance, environment and energy, disaster risk reduction, and HIV and development.
As we reflect on 2011, it is clear that this has been an exciting year for the India Country Office. Across the country discussions have intensified on the nature and pace of economic growth, rising inequalities and approaches to securing sustainable development. UNDP India has engaged on several of these complex issues including the inclusive growth imperative, equitable and sustainable human development, low-carbon climate-resilient growth, south-south cooperation and new partnerships for change.
UNDP India has been commended by national partners for its strategic and catalytic policy support to inform several of these discussions underway. Support to the formulation of the 12th Five-Year Plan focused on key areas of policy dialogue that can enable more inclusive and sustainable growth. These included – decentralized governance, gender and macroeconomics and disaster management.
A consultation with the Planning Commission aimed to contribute to these debates on inclusive growth by arriving at a conceptual understanding of an inclusive growth framework that addresses the needs of people persistently excluded from the development process. A UNDP supported study computed a first-ever Inequality-Adjusted Human Development Index for 19 Indian states highlighting how inequalities in income, education and health attainments are reducing human development gains.
As an acknowledgement of UNDP's flagship work on human development, a noteworthy achievement of 2011 has been the launch of a new collaboration with the Planning Commission that will focus on a fresh round of state level reports aimed at addressing inequality. Ahead of the UNFCCC in Durban, a UNDP and Ministry of Environment and Forests workshop brought together leading experts to share best practices and enabled a deeper understanding of climate technology needs and mechanisms critical to shape technology cooperation on climate change.
UNDP's strength in policy support is derived from strong partnerships on the ground and prototypes that provide innovative approaches for scale. For example, a women's empowerment prototype in Eastern Uttar Pradesh in partnership with the IKEA Foundation is set to be scaled-up to four states, reaching out to over 2.2 million women and their families. The award winning UNDP-Global Environment Facility prototype with the Ministry of Steel has been able to encourage numerous small scale entrepreneurs across the country to adopt energy saving practices that result in a 30 percent reduction in energy costs in steel re-rolling processes, which account for over 50 percent of the steel produced in the country.
As UNDP India works towards a new programming cycle (2013-2017), our planning process coincides with a critical juncture in India's development and progress. India is a middle income country and is clearly a key player on the global stage. However, overcoming development challenges to ensure millions are able to partake of the country's growth, remains a key concern as outlined in the Approach Paper to the 12th Five- Year Plan. The next UNDAF (2013-17) which has been signed with the Government of India aims to address these challenges. Based on the UNDAF and building on learnings from three Outcome Evaluations, UNDP has also responded with a strong and focused strategy outlined in the next Country Programme Document (2013-17). A stakeholder meeting in November last year endorsed UNDP's core areas of focus – inclusive growth and poverty reduction, democratic decentralized governance, sustainable development and disaster risk reduction, and gender and inclusion.
As we reflect on our achievements over the last year, it is also necessary to acknowledge the support of the Government of India, and in particular UNDP's nodal partner in the Government, the Department of Economic Affairs. We thank the Government for outstanding partnership.
2011 has been a year of committed partnerships where ideas, resources and skills from across India and the world have converged to support a range of exciting initiatives. Many thanks are also due to the dedication of partners from civil society, private sector and the donor community. These results would not have been possible without the commitment and hard work of our staff across the country.
Despite these achievements we remain mindful of the challenging environment in which we function. Donor funds are shrinking in light of the financial crisis and UNDP is being challenged to provide evidence of its relevance through results. The UNDP Administrator has called for us to move from "good to great" and do more with less. UNDP in India has responded effectively to internal change processes by developing systems that will enable a more efficient, streamlined and resultsoriented Office in the years to come.
UNDP in India remains dedicated to supporting India's development priorities. 2011 has been an excellent year and we look forward to the year to come.

|Bears say 1st round pick Long no gamble
|Written by Admin
|Friday, 26 April 2013 14:35
``Some people have a chip on their shoulder; I feel like I have a lumber yard on my shoulder,'' said Long, son of Hall of Fame defensive lineman Howie Long.
Kyle Long does not have only a family football legacy to live up to. He has been a baseball player with major league potential. He has struggled in the classroom. There's been a DUI. He was a junior-college player who found a home at Oregon. And, as of this week, he is the 20th pick of the NFL draft after only five starts for the Ducks.
Long came to Halas Hall on Friday for the first time, one day after being selected by the Bears, and said he's ready to show his selection was no gamble.
``I feel like I've matured immensely over the last few years,'' Long said. ``I feel like that's why I'm here today.''
That wasn't the case when Long was drafted as a left-handed pitcher out of high school in Virginia in 2008 by the Chicago White Sox in the 23rd round. He opted instead for Florida State and a baseball scholarship but dropped out of school and had that DUI in January 2009. He failed academically at Piedmont Community College in Virginia, then went west to Saddleback Junior College in Southern California.
``Kyle was, at the time, immature beyond his years, and had never been away from home,'' said Howie Long, the former Raiders great who joined his son Friday.
Kyle Long regretted pursuing baseball almost from the start of his only Florida State season when he heard spring football practices on an adjacent field.
``When I was at Florida State I could hear the football helmets smacking and the whistles blowing and the coaches screaming, and there wasn't a lot of that on the baseball field, and I knew I was not in the right place,'' he said.
When Long returned to California and enrolled at Saddleback Community College, he tried to follow in his father's footsteps and those of his brother, St. Louis Rams defensive end Chris Long. He quickly found out he was more cut out to block than tackle.
``I was pretty bad at the defensive line,'' he said. ``I thought maybe (defense) ran in the family but obviously it doesn't.''
At Oregon, Long split time with freshman left tackle Tyler Johnstone before an injury opened up a spot at left guard with four games left in the regular season.
``I didn't ask them if I could play (guard),'' Long said. ``I told them I would be the starting left guard. I told them I was going to be starting against (Southern Cal). We had a guy go down and I jumped at the opportunity. I was hungry to play. It was a great opportunity for me and I felt like I took full advantage.''
Long's draft stock rocketed after an impressive week at the Senior Bowl. The 6-foot-6 1/2, 313-pound tackle now has a chance to do what his father said he saw in him long ago.
``I've been saying this to his mom since he was 4 years old: He's kind of a freak of nature, physically,'' Howie Long said. ``God just puts his hand on some people and says, `You're gifted. What are you going to do with it?' When you throw 95 in high school and you're 295 (pounds) in high school and running 4.8 (40-yard dashes) and you can jump out of the building and dunk a basketball and all those things, the question then becomes what direction are you going and how important is it to you? It became obvious to us over the last few years it was very important for him.''
The Bears haven't exactly had a recent history of selecting offensive linemen who succeed. Tackle Gabe Carimi lost his starting job after being taken in Round 1 in 2011 and might play guard. Chris Williams was another first-round tackle who failed. Neither was drafted by general manager Phil Emery, though.
The Bears hadn't chosen a guard in Round 1 since 1960.
``I can't be concerned about what happened in the past,'' Emery said. ``I really can't, whether I was a part of that or if I wasn't. All you can focus in is the next pick, the next draft.''
Howie Long found some irony in his son becoming a Bear. At one time, agent, Marvin Demoff helped engineer a trade that would have sent Howie from the Raiders to the Bears, and Oakland would have received a draft pick with which to select John Elway. It never came off.
``And to add even more interest to the story, Marvin Demoff represents both our sons,'' Howie Long said. ``I said, `Marvin, you finally got a Long in Chicago.'''

By Steve Graham, Networx
Humidity doesn't just make you uncomfortable. It also causes problems and health hazards at every level of the home. Here is a bottom-to-top summary of some of the dangers of high humidity, and some solutions for each problem.
Underground problems
Humid weather simply exacerbates moisture problems that are often a concern in crawl spaces and basements. Moisture from the ground works with moisture from the humid air to generate condensation on walls and other surfaces, and create muggy basement smells and atmospheres. In turn, this can translate to mold and mildew issues. To avoid these problems, it is important to take steps to minimize moisture below the main floor of the home.
If humidity is an issue in any season, foundation vents should be left open all year to help the foundation dry out as much as possible. On the other hand, close basement windows and doors to keep out humid summer weather.
If humidity is an issue for a basement, insulate basement walls and run a dehumidifier. Rigid foam insulation is one good option, as it is essentially waterproof. However, it must be covered with drywall or another fire barrier. Attach a humidistat to the dehumidifier to control the humidity levels.
Crawl spaces should be covered with polyethylene or other thick, solid vapor barrier to keep moisture from the ground from creating bigger problems. Crawl spaces with moisture barriers also should have one square foot of vent area for every 1,500 square feet of crawl space area, according to Michigan State University (MSU) researchers. Crawl spaces without moisture barriers should have one square foot of venting per 150 square feet of space.
Mechanical system problems
Humid weather can also leave condensation on water pipes and toilet tanks. Again, this condensation can also lead to mold and mildew problems. If the toilet tank regularly beads with condensation, consider installing waterproof insulation inside the tank. Also wrap insulation around water pipes to minimize condensation.
Flooring problems
Moving up from the basement, the floor is the next likely victim of humidity problems. Mold and mildew can get into wood flooring or carpets, and may be hard to completely remove. It is best to avoid such problems by reducing humidity. Air conditioning systems reduce humidity while reducing the temperature, if they are installed correctly.
Mildewed carpet should be cleaned with an electric shampoo machine. If musty odors develop on carpet, either replace the entire carpet or have it professionally cleaned and dried off-site. Replace musty or damp padding.
If mildew develops on wood flooring, scrub it off with trisodium phosphate or quaternary disinfectants, then rinse and dry thoroughly, and add a mildew-resistant paint.
Storage Problems
Humidity can also wreak havoc on clothes, food and other stored items. Dry foods can draw in moisture and quickly go stale if humidity exceeds 60 percent. Cans may rust and leak in humid weather. Damaged or swollen cans should be tossed out. If humidity is an issue, keep stored food in an air-conditioned space.

EcoShield and hand applied, water based finished products are not designed to go together and are not recommended for use in the same space.
Color Stability and Lighting: We formulate our stains to maintain compatibility under daylight and cool white light. As a precaution, always select colors and materials under the specific type of lighting used at Haworth. Particular care should be taken with high intensity discharge light, which can adversely affect color compatibility.
Natural Occurring Effects of Light: Light determines color and has a tendency to bleach out color over a period of time. Depending on the color and the chosen veneer species the effect will vary. Fruitwood [e.g. cherry] has a tendency to darken as the stain color lightens, while other species of veneer tend to lighten as the stain color fades. This factor needs to be considered when adding new components to an existing job.

12/30/13 Phil Robertson is Back
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Monday, December 30, 2013
It was a short suspension for Duck Dynasty's Phil Robertson. Just nine days after A&E announced that Robertson was on "indefinite hiatus" from the show due to his controversial comments in an interview with GQ, the network announced on Friday that the reality hit would resume production in the spring with Phil back on board.
Jennifer Aniston and boyfriend Justin Theroux have headed south for their annual New Year's holiday vacation in Cabo San Lucas, and for the first time in several years, Aniston's once inseparable friend, Courteney Cox, is along with them! Aniston was comfortable enough to do some topless sunbathing on their villa's private patio
Jay Z and Beyonce partied it up Saturday night at a club in Atlanta. The two bought drinks for their entire V.I.P. section and their bill totaled probably more than your annual salary. Sources say the duo dropped ALMOST 100K on bottles of Dusse and Ace of Spades.
Kanye West surprised his fiancee Kim Kardashian with a truly priceless Christmas gift this holiday season: an Hermes Birkin bag that had been hand-painted by renowned artist George Condo. The painting consist of nude pictures.

The world just isn't fair. Paris Hilton claims she's one of the TOP 5 highest paid DJ's in world. TMZ asked Paris how her new journey into the world of electronic music has been paying off financially, and she responded, quote, "I'm one of the top 5 in the world, so..."
Tori Spelling's husband has admitted to cheating on her. US Weekly has a cover story that says Dean McDermott, who's been married to Tori for seven-and-a-half years, four children and two reality shows, had an affair in his hometown of Toronto earlier this month. According to the story, he told new friend 28-year-old Emily Goodhand that his marriage was sexless -- which doesn't quite jibe with their sex tape scandal of a few months back. Regardless, she spent a night with him in a swanky hotel. "He seemed like a cool guy," said Emily. "I thought he was handsome." But she also told the magazine she regretted the fling and that she had no intention of seeing McDermott again.
Jenni "JWoww" Farley announced she's pregnant on Wednesday by posting a Christmas card featuring an ultrasound picture of her little one. The card reads, "We couldn't have wished for a better gift this Christmas! Happy holidays from our growing family to yours! Love, Jenni, Roger and arriving July 2014 Baby Mathews." Roger is her fiance.
12/26/13 Justin Bieber Retiring?

Thursday, December 26, 2013
Last week, Justin Bieber announced on an L.A. radio station that he would be retiring after his next album drops. And of course, no one took him seriously. But, Justin is NOT backing off his promise to "retire". He proved he means business by reinforcing his retirement plans ON TWITTER!!! Justin issued a Christmas Eve statement saying, "My beloved beliebers I'm officially retiring." –And we, as a nation, can only hope.
Katy Perry and John Mayer might look like a laid-back couple, but the two are apparently extremely hight maintenance. Life & Style has uncovered a laundry list of demands the couple has on hand when they're on the road… and this is not your ordinary hotel room service. In fact, Mayer's four reasonable requests that include his alcoholic beverage of choice, Lagavulin 16, an $80 bottle of aged Scotch; Cherry Coke Zero; and room temperature Fiji water pale in comparison to his girlfriend's 20 necessities. They range from snacks (7 kinds of veggies, chips, dips and a bowl of ranch dressing) to wardrobe must-haves like a full-length mirror and director's chair.
12/24/13 Duck Dynasty Latest
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Tuesday, December 24, 2013
The wheels of justice in the beatdown of Paris Hilton's brother have ground to a halt. TMZ says officials have shelved the investigation because Barron Hilton is not cooperating. Earlier this month, one of Lindsay Lohan's friends, Ray LeMoine, allegedly rearranged Barron's face at a party in Miami. Barron says Lindsay ordered the assault, but Ray says the rich kid was the troublemaker. Barron filed a police report, but has not met with police. In fact, TMZ says he hasn't even answered the phone. The Florida State Attorney's Office says it will only re-open the case if Barron -- who is on vacation in Hawaii -- cooperates.
Charlie Sheen's Christmas is getting off to a rocky start. Charlie went on Twitter yesterday to blast his ex-wife Denise Richards, alleging she's keeping him from seeing his daughters. Charlie called Denise a "heartless, ugly hag" and also said "This is the worst Xmas I've ever had." Denise responded by tweeting, "U done ranting? Keep it classy, dude. Our kids don't need to be privy to this, U are welcome 2 spend xmas w/us Hope u still come."
Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson has finally broken his silence over his controversial interview with GQ magazine. Phil led a small Bible study group in his hometown church in West Monroe, Louisiana on Sunday, and according to Britain's Daily Mail he defended his anti-gay remarks, saying he was simply quoting from the Bible. He said, "I will not give or back off from my path. We are a bunch of rednecks from Louisiana, but I am not uneducated. I have a degree from Louisiana Tech. But this week I have been called an ignoramus. This week I have been asked, 'Is this the first time you have brought up sin?' I said, 'Are you kidding? I have been traveling to and fro spreading this message.'" Phil added, "I love all men and women. I am a lover of humanity, not a hater."
In the wake of the Duck Dynasty public relations nightmare after A&E decided to indefinitely suspend star Phil Robertson after his interview with GQ magazine, network executives are privately admitting the hit show should have been taken off the air for two weeks during the holiday break. A&E has faced an avalanche of criticism and outrage from fans of Duck Dynasty for the decision to take Robertson off the air and boycotts of the network and social media campaigns have "taken on a life of their own, and it's an absolute disaster for A&E," says one source. "Network bosses now recognize they should have just taken the show off the air for two weeks, since reruns were just airing anyway. The fallout wouldn't have been strong and everyone could have just moved on."
12/23/13 Duck Dynasty Cast Leaving?
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
December 23, 2013
E! News says sources connected to the show "Duck Dynasty", and the Robertson clan, say the family is "very serious" about leaving the reality series, after the network suspended Phil Robertson for his GQ interview, in which he grouped homosexuality in with bestiality as deviant behavior. One source says, quote, "They're an extremely tight-knit family and they're not going to let this get in the way. [Phil] is the reason for their success—they're not going to abandon him. They're also not about to let anyone threaten their religious beliefs."
Apparently, 19 children just isn't enough. Michelle Duggar and her husband Jim Bob of '19 Kids and Counting' made the surprising announcement Tuesday that they are expecting their 20th child. Michelle — who's three and a half months pregnant – says she was surprised to discover that she's expecting again at 45. She says, quote, "I was not thinking that God would give us another one, and we are just so grateful."
Tom Cruise has dropped his $50 million lawsuit against Life & Style magazine for claiming he abandoned his daughter Suri. Terms of a possible settlement have not been revealed, though both parties have agreed to pay their own legal costs. Tom's attorney Bert Fields said, "Tom doesn't go around suing people. He's not a litigious guy. But when these sleaze peddlers try to make money with disgusting lies about his relationship with his child, you bet he's going to sue." Tom denied the magazine's allegations, saying at one point: "The assertion that I 'abandoned' Suri after my divorce is patently false... I have in no way cut Suri out of my life — whether physically, emotionally, financially or otherwise."

Minutes of meeting held on Wednesday February 22nd at 24 New Oxford Street
Present: Professor J.R. Harrack (Chairman), Mr. R. Calder, Mr. C. Norman, Dr. J. Wright, Mr. A. Peacock, Lord Faringdon, Mr. J. Coyne, Mrs. L. Manning, Mrs. I. Brown, Mr. G. Jeger, and Miss Rosita Davson returned from Spain.
1. Minutes of previous meeting held on 15th February were confirmed and signed.
2. Matters arising:
a) The International Brigade Wounded and Dependants' Aid Committee had stated that they were unable to accept responsibility for the care of Mr. Boulka's child. At the same time, a letter had been received from Mr. Boulka asking us to make whatever arrangements we thought best for the care of the child.
In view of negotiations now proceeding between the foster-mother and the child's relatives it was decided to take no action for the time being, but to keep in touch with the child, and also to get from Mr. Boulka proof of his connection with the International Brigade.
b) Specimens of the "no recognition" leaflet had been sent to all Aid Spain Committees, and orders were being received.
c) A meeting had been arranged on Friday the 24th February at the Friends Meeting House, the charge for which had been specially reduced to £15. The three nurses recently returned from Spain and Mr. Poole were to speak, together with Miss Ellen Wilkinson and Mr. Hannen Swaffer. The other speakers were unable to attend on that evening, and Captain Liddell Hart has also regretted his inability to assist. Lord Addison had a previous engagement, and would be unable to take the chair. 2000 double crown posters had been posted up in the London area. Advertisements had been inserted in Reynolds and the Daily Worker and news paragraphs sought in other papers. Several thousand leaflets had boon distributed in various ways and arrangements were being made for the decoration of the Hall.
All those arrangements were confirmed and it was agreed that Professor Marrack should act as Chairman.
d) It had not been possible for the nurses to meet members of Parliament, as these meetings had become so frequent lately that the last one produced an audience of only 14. Mr. Wilfrid Roberts had however asked that signed statements be submitted to him, which he would circulate amongst the M.P.s. He had also deemed it unnecessary to have them meet the French Deputies, who, however, would receive copies of the statements made by our drivers and nurses on conditions in the camps.
3) Miss Rosita Davson submitted a comprehensive report of the last few weeks' activity in Catalonia and subsequent work in the south of France. (See supplement). She answered many questions, and it was agreed that we record our appreciation of her services during that very difficult period, and congratulate her on her able management of our affairs, and particularly on the successful evacuation of vehicles and material. It was agreed that we render what assistance we can to the Glaser family through the C.S.I., the Home Office, and the Woburn House Committee.
4) Special Correspondence:
a) From the Trade Union Club conveying the information that the premises were being demolished at the end of March, and terminating our tenancy as from the 29th of that month

|Cecilia (CeCe) Barnett is the February 2014 Employee of the Month
Cecilia (CeCe) Barnett is the February 2014 Employee of the Month. CeCe works as a housekeeper in Environmental Services and has been with All Children's since 2012. CeCe was recognized for her Service Excellence by a parent who wrote:
My son was a patient in the CVICU and had a heart cath. I was physically and emotionally exhausted. After walking my five-day-old baby to the cath lab, I came back to the room crying. Ms. Barnett came in to clean my son's room and as soon as she saw me she asked if she could get me a cup of water. Such a simple gesture made with so much kindness and attention was so needed by me at that time. She brought me and my mother-in-law a cup of ice water and then proceeded to clean the room. Once she was finished cleaning she reminded us she was there if we needed anything at all and she would be so happy to help us. She left her card and then left our room. These are the simple acts that make dealing with procedures a tad easier.
CeCe's Department Director added:
I cannot say how many times each month we receive comments from parents stating that CeCe has brightened their day. Keep in mind she is responsible each day to "hospital grade" the equivalent of an 11,000 square foot house with 28 bathrooms in it. Her smile and kind words are sometimes just what the doctor ordered for some of our parents and staff. CeCe helps to train newly hired employees and educates them about All Children's Service Standards and Service Excellence. The education doesn't stop with the Environmental Services staff but continues with everyone CeCe comes into contact with. She also trains coworkers to make towel animals. Recently there was a parent who stated that CeCe was cleaning her son's room when she noticed he was crying and she asked him why. The little boy responded he had been in the hospital a while and missed his dog. CeCe made a towel animal dog and said, "Here you go, you can have him while you're here and you won't miss your doggie so much." The little boy had a huge smile and his Mom was amazed by this great act of kindness.
CeCe, thank you for your wonderful Service Excellence and all you do for our patients and families and staff. Congratulations for receiving the All Children's Hospital Employee of the Month honors!

This summer, Piotr Tabor and Peter Kolbus will create (as Google Summer of Code participants - with Jason van Zyl and Carlos Sanchez as mentors respectively) a software system that will allow graphs of Maven project information to be created, both interactively and during the build process of a project. This includes:
- APIs to define graph structures (graphs, nodes, edges, and metadata), and implementations for class and artifact diagrams
- APIs for producers and consumers of graph information (connectors and listeners), and implementations
- A graphical editor to browse graphs and save configuration (positioning, exclusions, etc.)
- A Maven plugin to automatically generate static class and artifact diagrams
- A tool to troubleshoot artifact dependency problems
Previous work
See http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Dependency+Graphing for previous work and discussions, to reuse as much as possible
Why "Maven Diagram Maker"?
There are no good, free tools to prepare diagrams - especially such that would automatically generate diagrams from the source code and project descriptors. On the other hand, good and
up-to-date documentation is a very important part of software development process - particularly in the Open Source world, where documentation is critical to help many people work on projects. On the other hand, nobody likes preparing documents and diagrams. To make the matters worse, using standard one-time diagrammers helps only for a short period of time. In fast growing projects, the pictures become obsolete very quickly. They start to mislead. Therefore I think that adding possibility to generate actual up-to-date diagrams in the build process is a very important idea - and Maven is the perfect environment to do that.
Java developers can nowadays use very good text documenting tools, such a JavaDoc and Doxia, but the lack of methods to prepare and incorporate actual visual information in the documents is a very serious shortcoming of those tools.
Why "Dependency Troubleshooting"?
In larger software projects, it becomes difficult to ensure versions of dependencies are consistent throughout the component hierarchy. The dependency troubleshooter will provide the software developer with the information needed to find and fix dependency problems:
- Identify dependency exclusions. Is it excluded, and where did exclusion originate.
- Identify dependency version decisions. If maven picks another version, which one, and why?
- Identify dependency owner. If dependency is present in project, how did it get there? By current project, by transitive dependency, or by parent pom?
- Identify transitive dependency complexity. Multi module project is getting out of hand, what dependencies can i collapse safely into one dep?
- Identify relocated dependencies.
- Identify missing or bad dependencies.
- Filter unneeded information, and find specific artifacts in the tree
- Get more information about artifacts
- Answer "why was this artifact included?
- Answer "why it changed scope or version?".
Graph Structures
Graphs of Java Classes
Graphs of Artifact Dependencies
Graph Connectors and Listeners
A Connector provides a source of information about the structure of a graph; a Listener receives this information and creates a representation for output. The connector/listener model is used because graph structure information can often only be learned incrementally; for example, Maven's artifact resolution process never provides the overall structure of all dependencies, it only fires events as each artifact is scanned for dependencies. The connector model also allows
Events fired by a Connector include:
- addNode
- addEdge
- replaceNode
- replaceEdge
- removeNode
- removeEdge
- setGraphProperty
- setNodeProperty
- setEdgeProperty
Connector Configuration
The configuration of a connector will be described in XML format, via a dataSource tag. The dataSource describes the groupId and artifactId of the connector, as well as a container tag for the details of the configuration. The specific tags used in the configuration tag will be different for each connector, but common tag names will be used whenever appropriate.
Connector Implementations
The following connectors will be implemented as part of this project:
- Class diagram - to visualize the inheritance and composition aspects of the class hierarchy. The information will be obtained by reflection.
- Dependencies diagram connector - to visualize the chosen project's subset of the dependencies (internal or external, up to a configureddepth or/and included in a given scope). It will be also possible to exclude some dependencies from the diagram.
- Dependency difference connector - this will take two dependency sources and merge them, setting properties to identify whether a node or edge is in the new, old, or both diagrams
Of course the mechanism of the connectors will be universal enough to make the addition of a new aspect of a project as simple as possible.
Class Diagram Connector
The class diagram connector will inspect the classes in a directory, *.jar or *.war file and allowing to limit them. The information will be obtained from the classes by reflection.
Proposed configuration:
<dataSource> <groupId>org.apache.maven.diagram.connectors</groupId> <artifactId>classes-diagram</artifactId> <configuration> <dependencySets> <dependencySet> <groupId></groupId> <artifactId></artifactId> <classifier></classifier> <type></type> </dependencySet>  </dependencySets> </configuration> <filtering> <includes> <include>.*</include><!-Default-> </includes> <excludes> <exclude>org\.bad_package\..*</exclude> </excludes> </filtering> </dataSource>
Dependency connector
Providing data about project dependencies and allowing to limit them. In implementation it will be very similar to the "dependencies" task of maven-help-plugin
Proposed configuration:
<dataSource> <groupId>org.apache.maven.diagram.connectors</groupId> <artifactId>dependencies-diagram</artifactId> <configuration> <scopes> <scope>compile<scope> <scope>test<scope> <scopes> <excludesTransitives>  <exclude> <artifactId></artifactId> <groupId></groupId> <type></type> <classifier></classifier> </exclude> </excludesTransitives> <configuration> <filtering> <includes> <include>.* </includes> <excludes> <exclude>org\.bad_groupId:.*</exclude> </excludes> </filtering> </dataSource>
Dependency Diff Connector
The Graphical Editor
'The Graphical Editor will offer live (WYSIWYG) preparation of a graphical presentation of the project by setting such properties as:
- Type and subset of data, we want to present,
- What part of the data is to be presented,
- The method of presenting of each type of diagram nodes (that is, what attributes of the item will be displayed), and the general 'style' of the presentation. I would like to provide UML-like design.
- The general layout algorithm
- he positions of selected locked nodes - which we want to put in a fixed area. All other nodes will be positioned automatically.The schema of the diagram created by the editor will be saved to an XML file. Additionally the editor may be used as a graphical browser (explorer) of chosen aspects of the project. The editor will use the Prefuse library (http://prefuse.org).
Planned editor features
The Graphical Editor will help the user create and edit the visualization schema XML file. The file will contain two types of information:
- The <dataSource> section will describe which data will be presented, that is - how to acquire the information to present. The classes and attributes of connectors, which will extract the data from the project, will be given. No actual data will be stored in the XML file itself.
-The <view> section will describe how to present data. In details it
will contain:
- Perspective (coordinates of the visible area in the picture) or the information that the whole diagram has to fit into the picture.
- Information about objects pinned (locked) to specified positions of the picture. This is necessary because the layout algorithms cannot cope with every situation - and in such a situation help from the user is needed. The objects are identified by business identifiers.
- Selection of information from single node to be presented
- Selection and parameters of the general layout strategy
"View" tag schema proposition (example):
<view> <layoutStrategy> <class>prefuse.action.layout.graph.ForceDirectedLayout</class> <configuration> <duration>1000</duration>  </configuration> </layoutStrategy> <labels> Label1 Label2 </labels> <lockedNodes> <lockedNode> <id>org.funny.package.TheBestClass</id> <x>25</x> <y>40</y> </lockedNode> <lockedNode> <id>org.funny.package.TheBestClass2</id> <x>45</x> <y>20</y> </lockedNode> </lockedNodes> <crop>  <x></x> <y></y> <width></width> <hight></hight> </crop> <shows> <show>ClassName</show> <show>PublicField</show> <show>PublicMethods</show> </shows> </view>
The editor will be using a Prefuse library (http://prefuse.org/). In particular, all strategies of automatic object positioning provided by the library will be available for the user. The only connection between Maven and the editor will be the data source component (the connector). Out of the two connectors I wish to create only one (the dependencies view) will be dependent on Maven, the other (class hierarchy view) will be Maven-independent. Thus the editor may be viewed as a universal tool to browse and explore all kinds of data through the Prefuse library and to prepare visualization template files. This means the editor could be used in a wide variety of cases, provided an appropriate connector is supplied.
The Maven Plug-in (maven-graph-plugin)
The Maven Plug-in will be using the XML file prepared by the Graphical Editor and the current state of project to prepare images in various graphic formats (JPG, TIFF, PNG and others
supported by the Sun JAI library (http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jai/). The plug-in will be able to prepare the HTML <map> tag for the picture too (to create an active area on web page containing the image). The resulting file will be ready to use in the next Maven phases by Doxia or other documenting tool.
The maven-graph-plugin will cope with changes in the project made after generating the schema XML file. This means that if an object from the XML file is no longer exists in the project, it won't be visible in the picture. It also means that if the object is new, it will be placed in the picture (in a place calculated by the general layout strategy set in the XML file). Additionally the user will be warned about any discrepancies between the expected and actual data and problems with finding space for a new object. The diagram generation will not modify the XML file, but will only try to interpret it for the current situation.
Planned Features
The Maven-graph-plugin will be a tool to join the visualization XML file created by the editor with current project data (or other information described in <dataSource> section) and as a result to collection of graphical files in chosen formats (provided by Sun JIMI library: http://java.sun.com/products/jimi). The result of the plug-in would be also a HTML <map> tag - to support active links on the generated image. Configuration of result file formats, sizes in pixels, file names and destinations directory will be provided in the plug-in configuration.
Dependency Troubleshooting
TBD: See http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVENUSER/Interactive+Dependency+Graphs for now.

It's not your garden-variety "Tosca." There's a story behind it.
The Pacific Symphony's upcoming performances of Puccini's perennial tearjerker are part of an unusual and ambitious project, dubbed "Symphonic Voices," now in its second year. The project aims to bring opera back to our opera-deprived metropolis. It isn't easy. It isn't cheap. There are a lot of moving parts. But the orchestra thinks it's necessary.
"When Opera Pacific left the cultural and artistic life of Orange County, everyone lost," the Pacific Symphony's music director, Carl St.Clair, said recently, referring to the county's only major opera company, which produced opera here for 22 seasons before shutting down in late 2008 in the wake of the financial crisis. As the dust settled, and it became clear that Opera Pacific would not re-emerge, the Pacific Symphony convened a town meeting of local opera leaders and supporters to look for an answer.
"Symphonic Voices" was what they came up with. The orchestra's many-pronged initiative's most prominent undertaking is an annual production of a semi-staged opera in Segerstrom Concert Hall as part of its regular subscription season, with opera veteran St.Clair at the helm and an imported cast of singers taking the stage. Last year's production of "La Bohème" sold out two of its three performances. There is an appetite for opera here.
The trick for St.Clair is choosing the right operas to perform. They must fit into the normal 2- to 21/2-hour time frame of a symphony concert, he said, so operas such as "Siegfried" and "Götterdämmerung" are out. To keep costs down, they also must be able to be rehearsed during the orchestra's regular rehearsal schedule, meaning they have to be up onstage in less than a week (which, in turn, necessitates hiring singers who are already veterans in their parts). But most important, the operas performed must work well in a semi-staged format.
For St.Clair, that's an opera where "the real driving drama is not how a set or a costume looks, but it's more of the interactions between the various characters." The orchestra, since it sits onstage, behind the singers, also must have a "vital role" in the drama, not merely accompany the singer, he said. "Bohème" and "Tosca" meet those requirements.
Making lemonade
What is semistaged opera? Traditionally, "semi-staged" opera means a pared-down production, using minimal or no props, costumes and sets, and basic blocking for the singers.
Eric Einhorn, a staff director at the Metropolitan Opera who is directing the Pacific Symphony's "Tosca," has his own answer.
"There is no such thing as semi-staged; it's sort of like (saying) you're a little bit pregnant," Einhorn said, meaning you either stage the opera or you present it in concert.
Einhorn chooses to see the limitations imposed on him for this "Tosca" as an opportunity "to customize the piece" to the venue. Segerstrom Concert Hall was designed without the theatrical apparatus (flies, curtains, a proscenium stage) necessary for a full-scale opera production.
"We're making a batch of lemonade," Einhorn said of his "Tosca." He will use a large video screen for projections, suggesting locations. He plans to use various platforms onstage, and the singers will not only perform in front of the orchestra but within it, from the balconies and from the choral terrace.
"I want it to feel like everything is a part of the show," Einhorn said.
"For instance, the offstage singing that happens in Act II, when we hear Tosca and the chorus singing the cantata for the queen, the plan right now is to put that in one of the reverberation chambers in the hall, and to light that in a way that's interesting and exciting, so it all becomes part of the experience."
But more than anything, Einhorn said this semi-staged version will give him the chance to forge a more intimate "Tosca," to work on line readings with the singers and the relationships between the characters.
