Central Otago growers fight against frosts
Relevant offers
Heavy frosts in Central Otago have struck the area's vineyards.
McArthur Ridge Vineyard manager Murray Petrie said this morning there had been four major frosts, lasting up to six or seven hours each, in the area since Saturday, with temperatures varying from -5 and -4 degrees
''Historically it's probably been the coldest spring of the last 20 years,'' he said.
A heavy snowfall on Friday meant there was more cold air mass circulating in the area, he said.
However, he was counting his blessings the vineyard, renowned for its pinot noir, operated an overhead water sprinkling system to help prevent frost damage - which had so far only been minor.
Sprinkling water onto the vines formed a thin layer of ice to protect from the frost, he said.
''Others that have had wind machines or helicopters haven't come off so well.''
He was hopeful the weather would improve.
If the heavy frosts continued ''there'll be less grapes from the 2013 vintage'' but it was unlikely the area would receive another major dumping of snow again this season, he said.
Growers cross fingers Central Otago grape growers hope the worst of the devastating spring frosts are over, with overnight temperatures forecast to improve in coming days.
Unseasonably heavy frosts have forced growers to work up to eight hours a night to protect their crops.
Temperatures as low as -5 degrees Celsius on Monday and -4C yesterday morning came at a considerable cost, with early estimates suggesting as much as 1000 tonnes of the annual 8100-tonne harvest could have been destroyed.
Climatologist and frost specialist Stu Powell said the weather looked set to improve from tonight.
"We see a gradual warming. I think tonight (Tuesday) will be the last of the frosts. Tomorrow night (Wednesday) will be slightly warmer and the next night will be considerably warmer. I've not seen a season with as many frost events as this since 2005."

The Great Gatsby Moves to May of 2013
Warner Bros. Pictures' and Village Roadshow Pictures' The Great Gatsby will open early in the Summer 2013 season, hitting theaters on May 10 in the U.S. and Canada, with an international rollout beginning the following week. The announcement was made today by Dan Fellman, President of Domestic Distribution, and Veronika Kwan Vandenberg, President of International Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures.
Fellman stated, "Audiences have been looking forward to Baz Luhrmann's film adaptation of one of the most beloved books of all time, and we felt this beautifully extravagant and dramatic film would be a perfect way for us to kick off our Summer slate."
Kwan Vandenberg added, "Baz's unique take on Gatsby is glitzy and glamorous, with his juxtaposition of the classic tale and contemporary themes hitting just the right note. This film should really add heat to the competitive Summer season."
From the uniquely imaginative mind of writer/producer/director Baz Luhrmann comes the new big screen adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby. The filmmaker has created his own distinctive visual interpretation of the classic story, bringing the period to life in a way that has never been seen before, in a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio in the title role.
The Great Gatsby follows Fitzgerald-like, would-be writer Nick Carraway as he leaves the Midwest and comes to New York City in the spring of 1922, an era of loosening morals, glittering jazz, bootleg kings, and sky-rocketing stocks. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick lands next door to a mysterious, party-giving millionaire, Jay Gatsby, and across the bay from his cousin, Daisy, and her philandering, blue-blooded husband, Tom Buchanan. It is thus that Nick is drawn into the captivating world of the super rich, their illusions, loves and deceits. As Nick bears witness, within and without of the world he inhabits, he pens a tale of impossible love, incorruptible dreams and high-octane tragedy, and holds a mirror to our own modern times and struggles.
Academy Award nominee DiCaprio (J. Edgar, The Aviator) plays Jay Gatsby, with Tobey Maguire starring as Nick Carraway; Oscar nominee Carey Mulligan (An Education) and Joel Edgerton as Daisy and Tom Buchanan; Isla Fisher and Jason Clarke as Myrtle and George Wilson; and newcomer Elizabeth Debicki as Jordan Baker. Indian film legend Amitabh Bachchan will play the role of Meyer Wolfsheim.
Oscar nominee Luhrmann (Moulin Rouge) directs the film in 3D from a screenplay co-written with frequent collaborator Craig Pearce, based on Fitzgerald's book. Luhrmann produces, along with Catherine Martin, Academy Award winner Douglas Wick (Gladiator), Lucy Fisher and Catherine Knapman. The executive producers are Academy Award winner Barrie M. Osborne (The Lord of The Rings: The Return of The King) and Bruce Berman.
Two-time Academy Award-winning production and costume designer Catherine Martin (Moulin Rouge) designs as well as produces. The editors are Matt Villa, Jason Ballantine and Jonathan Redmond, and the director of photography is Simon Duggan. The music is by Craig Armstrong.
Warner Bros. Pictures presents, in association with Village Roadshow Pictures, in association with A&E Television, a Bazmark/Red Wagon Entertainment Production, a Film by Baz Luhrmann, The Great Gatsby. In theaters May 10, 2013, the film will be distributed in 3D and 2D by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company, and in select territories by Village Roadshow Pictures.

Lawnmower torches Arbor Vitae on Portland Drive
The riding lawn mower driven by Norma Cannon overheated and made contact with dry arbor vitae owned by Lee and Norma Curtis, sending more than a dozen of the tightly-packed trees up in flames. The mower, visible at far right, was totaled. No one was injured; neighbors first kept the fire at bay with garden hoses and Westside and Hood River Fire Departments responded and doused the fire before it reached any structures. Westside Fire chief Jim Trammell, in blue shirt, directs firefighters. The video was taken by Capt. Dave Smith of Hood River Fire Department. Enlarge

Minn. vets groups make case for construction moneyPublished 10:34am Friday, April 19, 2013
ST. PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota veterans groups are exerting pressure on state lawmakers to come through with money for a proposed facility for veterans needing intensive care.
The $54 million project on the Minneapolis veterans' home campus is part of a construction plan put forward by Democratic Gov. Mark Dayton. But it was left out of a House proposal nearing a floor vote. Representatives from service organizations planned to sound off Friday.
The skilled-nursing facility would be built on the site of one slated for demolition. It would have 100-beds.
But House Capital Investment Committee Chairwoman Alice Hausman has questioned whether a centralized facility makes the most sense when there are almost 900 veterans on waiting lists around the state. She says lawmakers should discuss whether to build smaller facilities in more places.

The Politics of Method in the Human Sciences provides a remarkable comparative assessment of the variations of positivism and alternative epistemologies in the contemporary human sciences. Often declared obsolete, positivism is alive and well in a number of the fields; in others, its influence is significantly diminished. The essays in this collection investigate its mutations in form and degree across the social science disciplines. Looking at methodological assumptions field by field, individual essays address anthropology, area studies, economics, history, the philosophy of science, political science and political theory, and sociology. Essayists trace disciplinary developments through the long twentieth century, focusing on the decades since World War II.
Contributors explore and contrast some of the major alternatives to positivist epistemologies, including Marxism, psychoanalysis, poststructuralism, narrative theory, and actor-network theory. Almost all the essays are written by well-known practitioners of the fields discussed. Some essayists approach positivism and anti-positivism via close readings of texts influential in their respective disciplines. Some engage in ethnographies of the present-day human sciences; others are more historical in method. All of them critique contemporary social scientific practice. Together, they trace a trajectory of thought and method running from the past through the present and pointing toward possible futures.

Chapter OneANTHROPOLOGY
Estrangement, Intimacy, and the Objects of Anthropology
One of the mandates of this volume is to bring to light what George Steinmetz (this volume) has called the epistemological unconscious of the contemporary social sciences. In most cases, this has meant exposing the scientistic or objectivistic assumptions that underwrite the various paradigms that have dominated the respective disciplines. Given this context, it becomes apparent that cultural anthropology has a peculiar position among the other social sciences. Although the discipline presents us with a complex range of methods and a huge diversity of norms for what count as well-formed questions, significant evidence, and satisfactory answers, certain patterns are evident. The one I want to draw out in this chapter is that positivism, however understood (see Steinmetz's introduction to this volume), has not dominated the main currents of cultural anthropology in recent generations. To be sure, anthropology is a vast, unwieldy business and includes important work that is nearly indistinguishablefrom that of, say, certain kinds of statistical demographers, empirically oriented economists, or comparative political scientists. The traditional four-field department that includes biological or physical anthropology, linguistic anthropology, archaeology, and the social or cultural subfields persists, if in somewhat beleaguered form. Moreover, members of the various subfields often find close allies in neighboring disciplines in which classic scientific models are normative. Linguistic anthropologists, for instance, may work closely with cognitive scientists or developmental psychologists, archaeologists with demographers or geneticists, social anthropologists with economists or sociologists, and so forth. The combinations are fluid, the conjunctions sometimes surprising, and, compared to some fields, the lack of tightly regulated or hegemonic disciplinarity rather striking. This fluidity makes both generalization and prediction about the future course of anthropology even more difficult than it might be for other academic fields. Nonetheless, the thrust of this essay is to argue that if we confine ourselves to cultural anthropology, which numerically has always been by far the largest subfield, a discernible pattern is to be found. I argue that cultural anthropology has long manifested a deeply embedded tendency to be resistant to positivism, however loosely defined. And I want to suggest some aspects of the subdiscipline's epistemological unconscious that might explain this.
Again, I must stress that even the subfield of cultural anthropology is not uniformly anything, much less "antipositivist" or, as critics sometimes put it, "antiscience." Rather, I want to account for the relative dominance of alternative understandings of the kind of knowledge anthropologists might seek and the kinds of objects of knowledge this presumes. To exemplify the problem, consider the enormous impact of the work of Clifford Geertz. From the 1970s at least up through the 1990s, he was by far the most frequently cited anthropologist (see Sewell 1999). Until his recent retirement from the founding professorship in social science at the Institute for Advanced Studies, his intellectual influence was matched by institutional centrality and the structural clout that goes with it. For more than a generation, other cultural anthropologists have had to somehow position themselves with respect to his work. He has been held responsible for cultural anthropology's purported lack of "predictability, replicability, verifiability, and law-generating capacity" (Shankman 1984, quoted in Sewell 1999, 35). My starting point is this: in most of the social sciences, such an accusation would, I take it, represent the voice of the established mainstream. In cultural anthropology, by way of contrast, it is the cry of those who see themselves having to resist a dominant style of thought.
It may even turn out, on close examination, that a majority of cultural anthropologists are, in fact, quietly practicing some manner of normal science. But it is significant that positivist models (broadly speaking) have not been established as normative for the field. In the light of the normative claims of such models of science for related disciplines, it is this that remains to be explained.
This essay is not about Geertz, about whose work it is hard to imagine there remains anything interesting still unsaid. It could be argued that the concept of culture he championed and the interpretive style he took that concept to require are no longer central to current work in the subdiscipline. At least, they meet strong competition from political economy and a variety of post- or anticulturalist starting points. Rather, I invoke him here to characterize the distinctive place of cultural anthropology among the social sciences. My claim is that Geertz's influence on the field is less a source of its present character than it is a symptom of an epistemological unconscious that is shared across a range of sometimes antagonistic approaches to anthropology. That is, to understand the peculiarity of cultural anthropology, we should look at what it is about the field that has made it so receptive to the influence of thinkers such as Geertz.
The state of play is, I propose, expressed by a remark by Jean and John Comaroff, whom no one would ever mistake for "Geertzians." Two influential anthropologists with solid roots in long-term fieldwork, the sobriety of British social anthropology, and the tough-minded realism of the Marxist tradition, they write that ethnography "refuses to put its trust in techniques that give more scientific methods their illusory objectivity: their commitment to standardized, a priori units of analysis, for example, or their reliance on a depersonalizing gaze that separates subject from object" (1992, 8). These words, offered almost in passing, express a fairly widespread perception among cultural anthropologists that certain important arguments are settled. In this view, it is no longer in much dispute that cultural anthropology is not merely at an "immature" stage, en route to something more akin to natural science. Most significant, perhaps, is the assumption that the separation of subject from object can be understood only in negative terms: that to say that a field of knowledge "depersonalizes" is ipso facto to discredit it. Yet, in their own ethnographic and historical work, the Comaroffs, like most of their colleagues, take their empirical materials very seriously and do not wholly reject the separation of subject from object. What is at issue, rather, is what kinds of objects and subjects, and what categories of analysis and comparison, are epistemologically appropriate and ethically legitimate for the study of social actions and self-understandings. It involves closely linked questions about purposes and values: How does what we take to be the object of doing anthropology determine what are, or should be, the objects of its knowledge?
The ultimate aim of this essay is to propose that we rethink the problem of "objectification" in the study of culture and society. A productive understanding of objectification should go beyond the commonplace critiques of scientism or ideological reification. It would take seriously the materiality of signifying practices and the ubiquity and necessity of conceptual objectification as a component of human action and interaction. But first I want to step back for a look at the way this point has come to be obscured for us. I begin by revisiting some old arguments about the nature of culture, meaning, and social science that have become a relatively taken-for-granted background shared by opponents in more recent debates about power, identities, and the observer. If, as I suggest, ethnographic knowledge has always been marked by a tension between epistemologies of estrangement and of intimacy, the latter has increasingly claimed the epistemological and moral high ground in much cultural anthropology, especially in the United States. The result is a number of familiar dilemmas about incommensurability, comparison, translation, and the possibilities for understanding. This essay focuses on the themes of antideterminism, meaning, agency, and particularism as they have marked U.S. cultural anthropology in contrast to much of the rest of social science. I want to suggest that there is more underlying unity across at least some of the battle lines than is commonly recognized. But this unity is obscured not least because its roots in certain intuitions about freedom and agency are so deep, long-standing, and yet little examined. Although the current emphasis on intimacy and engagement and the suspicion of objectification are associated with postcolonial critique, practice theory, deconstruction, power/knowledge, and identity politics, I argue that its roots are deeper. To the extent that certain well-trod paths in anthropology converge with other antifoundationalist disciplines in an intellectual world informed more by, say, Nietzsche than by Comte, by the later Wittgenstein than Chomsky, they do so from a distinctive angle.
In the first part of this essay, I sketch out some of the ways the Boasian, Weberian, and Durkheimian understandings of the objects and categories of sociocultural knowledge were transformed by the interpretive and symbolic turns in cultural anthropology in the 1960s and 1970s. I then look at two critiques of the culture concept, by Lila Abu-Lughod and by James Ferguson and Akhil Gupta, that exemplified the situation a generation or so later. Although both critiques are animated by problems of power, knowledge, and agency, they work toward opposite ends of the spectrum of intimacy and estrangement. Yet they share certain assumptions about meaning and determinism not only with each other, but with those whom they attack. These assumptions are shaped by an underlying, often unspoken ethic that stresses the value of human self-determination and opposes it both to reductionism and to mere contingency.
Thus, for example, the participants in one of the most notorious debates in anthropology in the previous generation, between Marshall Sahlins (1985, 1995) and Gananath Obeyesekere (1992) over the proper explanation of Captain Cook's death in Hawaii, remained within at least some of the parameters of interpretive rather than positivistic social science. The facts of what actually happened, after all, were in little dispute. Sahlins's and Obeyesekere's respective ethical claims-proper respect for indigenous agency, for instance-were inseparable from their epistemological assumptions. What was in question was an interpretation, as each asserted himself to hold the greater insight into how Hawaiians understood the British explorers.
This essay does not pretend to be a history, nor does it claim to be inclusive. Rather, it is an interested reading, which tries to draw out certain themes that run through the effort to place people's self-interpretations at the center of study and the privileging of intimacy over estrangement as a source of legitimate understanding. By retracing the logic of some of the earlier arguments about objectivism and "the particular," I hope to clarify their contribution to the present moment. If the central part of this essay focuses on the so-called symbolic and interpretive turns in the United States, it is because their enormous impact, in light of the dominance of scientism, positivism, and functionalisms elsewhere in the social sciences, is what most needs to be understood. It does, however, begin with the intuition that many of the contemporary debates can take place, their terms of relevance making sense to the participants, only to the extent that they are predicated on certain shared assumptions and even ethical motives evident in those earlier generations.
Anthropology and the Particulars
The antipositivism that I claim characterizes much of cultural anthropology at the beginning of the twenty-first century is, perhaps, stronger than it has ever been before. Yet the general resistance to positivistic models in some form or other has long been evident, if not always regnant. If positivism, for instance, aspires to create a unified field of sciences, anthropologists have long complained about their discipline's fragmentation (e.g., H. Moore 1999; Ortner 1984; Wolf 1980). Indeed, Franz Boas, the founder of U.S. academic anthropology, saw the field's dissolution as imminent sixty years ago (Stocking 1992b, 346; 1992a, 148). In which case, the discipline by now has been "dissolving" as long as it has been "united"-and, some might point out, with greater financial resources, more publications, and ever increasing numbers of participants. If positivism begins with the establishment of careful procedures of study, consider Marshall Sahlins's remarkably offhand discussion of his fieldwork methods of the 1950s, when he still identified himself as a scientific cultural ecologist: "As to anthropological field techniques, there is nothing new to say. I used the standard ones, having in each village a few outstanding, most-used informants. I interviewed, cross-checked, kept a daily journal, observed and took part in ceremonies and social gatherings, used the genealogical method, and did mostly as trained" (1962, 3). That's virtually all he has to say.
Crucial to the idea of positivism is the goal of nomothetic explanation, especially as expressed in abstract statements about general relations of cause and effect. For proponents of nomothetic models of explanation, much of cultural anthropology is vitiated by excessive particularity, excessive concreteness, and favoring interpretation or description over causality. Almost forty years ago, Marvin Harris, who advocated a positivistic science of cultural evolution, complained that "there emerged a view of culture that exaggerated all the quixotic, irrational, and inscrutable ingredients in human life. Delighting in diversity of pattern, anthropologists sought out divergent and incomparable events.... By emphasizing inscrutable values, vain prestige, irrational motives, they discredited the economic interpretation of history. Anthropology came increasingly to concern itself with idiographic phenomena, that is, with the study of the unique and the nonrepetitive aspects of history" (1968, 1).
Although the complaint concerns the U.S. scene of an earlier generation, a similar objection has been expressed by scholars of very different perspectives and generations, from contemporary France (Sperber 1996) to England of the 1950s, when the structuralist Edmund Leach (1959/1961, 1) remarked, "Most of my colleagues are giving up the attempt to make comparative generalizations; instead they have begun to write impeccably detailed historical ethnographies of particular peoples." If anthropology can look too particularistic from several quite distinct points of view, it also seems to persist in whatever it is doing that provokes these complaints.
Some, of course, simply take this condition to be a symptom of confusion, incoherence, or worse. But I think we need to take it seriously as an approach to knowledge. There is something about what anthropology has been doing that, for all the shifts of paradigm and the fires of internal critique, continues to produce both the particularistic symptom and the theorizing complaint. If this is a dialectic, it is recurrently threatened with collapse when either side, what might be called the epistemologies of estrangement and of intimacy, is favored at the expense of the other. Although the U.S. academy has most elaborated the side of intimacy, the basic problems are of more general relevance.

Want to know a secret? I loathe the phrase Digital Transformation. Not only is the word Digital silly and misleading, but Transformation ain't much better. The mere act of naming a business initiative Digital Transformation suggests to people that once the transformation is complete, we'll be done. Look at us! We're Digitally Transformed!
Hogwash. A single transformation is better than nothing, but what we really want is the ability to transform our business as needed. Furthermore, we need to be agile with our transformation initiative itself. The last thing we want is to institute, say, a three-year transformation effort, only to find at the end of the three years that the world changed a year into the initiative, rendering it a useless waste of money and effort.
So, who are the right people in the organization to address this sorry state of affairs? Driving the change needed to make our organizations more successful at such ongoing transformation should ideally fall to the Enterprise Architects. Unfortunately, the way Enterprise Architecture (EA) is done today falls well short of this mark.
Traditional EA starts with documenting the initial state of an enterprise. Then Enterprise Architects document the final state as required by the business. Finally, they help the organization plan how to get from one state to the other.
There are only three things wrong with this way to think about EA: The initial state. The final state. And yes, the plan to get from one to the other. It's no wonder most organizations who were fool enough to sink money into EA believe EA is completely broken. Even EAs think EA is broken, and they do it for a living!
But no matter how fun it is to bemoan this sorry state of affairs, this Cortex must help point the direction to a better way of thinking about – and doing – Enterprise Architecture. The success of any Digital Transformation effort hangs in the balance.
What's Wrong with Point A to Point B?
It seems so intuitive that the way to solve a problem is first, understand the problem, second, understand the solution, and third, solve the problem. Unfortunately, many EA initiatives don't get past step one. Documenting the initial state of an enterprise – or even simply documenting the initial state of an enterprise's IT environment, which is usually where EAs focus their efforts – is an exercise in futility. There are simply way too many bits and pieces, moving parts made of people and technology, for such an activity to ever complete, let alone provide sufficient detail to add clarity to the situation. Remember, the organization is always in flux. Even if you could take a snapshot of everything, it would be out of date a moment later.
What about the final state? That's the nirvana situation where all your problems are solved, right? OK, raise your hand if there was ever a time in your career where all the problems were solved, all the bugs were fixed, all the projects were complete. Anybody? Sounds rather unrealistic, wouldn't you say? Even if you narrow your scope to a single aspect of your business or even a single project, there is nothing final about a final state, if you could even refer to such an implausible scenario as a state, which is asking a lot. Remember, everything is connected to everything else, and everything is always changing. The notion of a "final state" is an unrealistic simplification that misleads people into thinking the approach they're taking will actually solve problems.
Very well, let's say you've still reading, in spite of thinking my comments on initial and final state are a bunch of hogwash. Certainly, you may ask, the EAs can at least concoct some kind of plan for getting from point A to point B? Sorry to disappoint. If what you mean by a "plan" is a description of the steps you must take that you can put together before you take those steps, then no. You'll never come up with such a plan that ends up having any relationship to reality by even the halfway mark. There are simply too many unknowns, and too many things can change along the way.
Moving Up a Level
The core problem with this traditional approach to architecture is that it is simply too literal. It deals with things as they are and things as you desire them to be, without dealing with the fact that everything is subject to change. But the good news is, we architects have a wonderful tool in our box of tricks for dealing with excess literalness: the tool of abstraction. If we move up a level of abstraction, we're no longer thinking about initial and final state. Instead, we're thinking about moving from being less agile to being more agile.
Literal-minded thinkers (and I know you're out there) will be protesting at this point that "being less agile" is our initial state and "being more agile" is our final state, so we're just playing word games. And if you squint and hold your nose, there is a minuscule portion of truth in that overly literal perspective – but you're missing the point here. "Being less agile" describes any number of possible initial states we may find ourselves in, and "being more agile" means being able to deal with change better, no matter which state we started at or where we happened to end up.
Put another way: moving from A to B describes a change (or actually, a set of changes) in the organization. Moving from less agile to more agile describes a change in how the organization deals with change, from being less able to deal with change to being more able to deal with change. In other words, we're now thinking at the Meta level. We're not doing architecture any more, oh no. We're doing meta-architecture: we're architecting our architecture.
Introducing the Bloomberg Agile Architecture™ Maturity Metamodel
Time to put some meat on these bones. As I've explained before, the Bloomberg Agile Architecture (BAA) Technique is a particular approach to implementing EA that is business agility driven. It's not a framework you need to subtract from but a technique that complements other architectural efforts. Today I'm rolling out a core BAA artifact: the BAA Maturity Metamodel.
Try as I might, I couldn't fit the entire chart into this article, so instead, I've linked to a pdf version of the Metamodel. Click here or the image below to download the pdf.
Unfortunately, there isn't room in this Cortex to fully explain the BAA Maturity Metamodel (for that, take one of our classes to learn all the details, or drop me a line). But there is room here for a few of the highlights.
First, notice the four levels: Chaotic State, First-Gen SOA/Centralized, Next-Gen SOA/Cloud-Centric, and Agile Architecture. These designations refer to the organization's context for architecture as it matures from less agile to more agile. In other words, it maps how your architecture is evolving – and thus the chart represents an aspect of your meta-architecture.
Second, note the twelve dimensions (rows), sorted neatly into four areas: Organization, Process, Information, and Technology. This organization of dimensions is more a matter of convenience than anything else. Feel free to rearrange the dimensions as you see fit.
In fact, feel free to change anything in the metamodel you see fit, based upon your situation – and always be willing to change it as your architecture evolves. Remember, there are two sides to being agile: the core driver of business agility (increasing in the metamodel from left to right) and the fact that BAA is Agile in approach (in other words, generally follows the principles of the Agile Manifesto). And as ye old Manifesto sayeth, thou shalt respond to change over following a plan. Even if the plan is to be Agile!
Finally, never forget what this diagram is for. It's for helping architects coordinate change across the organization as driven by business needs. The metamodel – or any other aspect of the architecture – never tells the business what it should do. In the immortal words of a well-known sage: "business needs drive the architecture, and architecture drives the technology. Never let technology drive the architecture or the architecture drive the business." Couldn't have said it better myself.
The Intellyx Take
I know that many of you who took the time to download the Maturity Metamodel will have many questions about it – and over time, I'll get to the answers. But just to whet your appetite a wee bit further, let's take a moment to discuss the first dimension: Business Transformation.
The starting point for business transformation, of course, must be "no transformation." As the organization gets a handle on their architecture and moves to first-generation SOA, IT moves into the role of service provider – not simply IT services, but also Web Services that automate the interaction with existing systems of record. Instead of simply integrating those systems, now the IT organization publishes interfaces that can be consumed as needed, transforming the relationship between IT and the business (which was always easier said than done, hence the relegation of first-generation SOA to Level One).
As the architecture matures to next-generation, Cloud-friendly SOA (which in many cases loses the "SOA" name, but is Service-oriented nevertheless), the transformation story centers on the move to the Cloud. Cloud Computing, you see, is far more than a change in technology deployment. It represents a force for transforming the business.
But even Cloud-driven transformation isn't the end of the story. The move to Agile Architecture is a move to continuous business transformation – where the organization is as agile as it wants to be, and is able to deal with change as a routine part of how it does business. Continuous business transformation, of course, has always been the center of the Agile Architecture story – and is what we really mean when we say we want Digital Transformation.
The notion of customer journeys, of course, are central to the digital marketer's playbook. Clearly, enterprises should focus their digital efforts on such journeys, as they represent customer interactions over time. But making customer journeys the centerpiece of the enterprise architecture, however, leaves more questions than answers. The challenge arises when EAs consider the context of the customer journey in the overall architecture as well as the architectural elements that make up each...

In 2006, Martin Fowler posted his now famous essay on Continuous Integration. Looking back, what seemed revolutionary, radical or just plain crazy is now common, pedestrian and "just what you do." I love it. Back then, building and releasing software was a real pain. Integration was something you did at the end, after code complete, and we didn't know how long it would take. Some people may recall how we, as an industry, spent a massive amount of time integrating code from one team with another...

As the software delivery industry continues to evolve and mature, the challenge of managing the growing list of the tools and processes becomes more daunting every day. Today, Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) platforms are proving most valuable by providing the governance, management and coordination for every stage of development, deployment and release. Recently, I spoke with Madison Moore at SD Times about the changing market and where ALM is headed.

If there is anything we have learned by now, is that every business paves their own unique path for releasing software- every pipeline, implementation and practices are a bit different, and DevOps comes in all shapes and sizes.

The goal of any tech business worth its salt is to provide the best product or service to its clients in the most efficient and cost-effective way possible. This is just as true in the development of software products as it is in other product design services. Microservices, an app architecture style that leans mostly on independent, self-contained programs, are quickly becoming the new norm, so to speak. With this change comes a declining reliance on older SOAs like COBRA, a push toward more s...

In other cases, APIs can increase a business's footprint and initiate collaboration. Netflix, for example, reported over 5 bi...

Who was right?
The UAE economy grew in the first half of the year, but who has predicted the growth most accurately so far? Kipp wants to know who to believe in the future.
November 24, 2010 3:33 by Samuel Potter
October 7, and everybody's favourite international monetary fund, the International Monetary Fund, revised figures for the year. Months before it had predicted a measly 1.3 percent growth, now it was ready to call a more friendly 2.4 percent.
Less than a week later, the central bank governor of the UAE, Sultan Nasser Al-Suweidi, decided to not quite commit to a prediction, saying growth of 3 to 4 percent would be "reasonable" under current circumstances. Way to commit yourself.
A week after that, Mohammed Al Shihhi, the UAE Economy Ministry's Undersecretary, reiterated the department's 2.5 percent average for the year. By now the Economist Intelligence Unit had jumped on the bandwagon with a prediction close to 2.5 percent.
Last but not least in our little round-up, the Energy Minister, Mohammed bin Dhaen al-Hamli, got in on the act in November when he predicted 2.25 percent growth for the year.
So who's closest so far?
We don't have UAE figures, but we do have the Dubai numbers. According to the Dubai Statistics Center, growth for the first half of the year was 2.3 percent, making energy minister Mohammed bin Dhaen al-Hamli our current winner if those numbers reflect the whole UAE. Of course, Abu Dhabi is likely to pull the number up; but then other emirates may pull it down, so we reckon Dubai's numbers could be a pretty fair reflection so far.
Why not play along at home? Kipp says 2.75 for the year overall, UAE wide.

Ask Any Girl Lyrics
Artist: The Supremes
Album: More Hits By The Supremes
(Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland, Jr.)
Being hurt by the one you love
It's a feeling that's hard to hide
But you don't seem to understand why
When I'm alone I sit and cry
Ask any girl
Who's often left alone
All by herself
Neglectfully pushed aside
Set aside like a doll on a shelf
Just ask any girl
Ooh, and you'll understand why
I sit and cry
Ask any girl
Who knows the fear of losing
Someone dear
And she'll say the same thing
It hurts you deep
Makes it hard to sleep
Don't take my word
Ask any girl
Then you'll understand why
I sit and cry
Ask any girl
Who receives no loving affection
And she'll feel as I feel
It's heartaches by the number
Many nights without slumber
Ask any girl
Ooh, and then you'll know why
I sit and cry
I sit and cry

Common lends a helping hand on this uplifting track off musician Derrick Hodge's new album, Live Today. Tomorrow can always wait. fakeshoredrive
A fan of both of these dudes but this track is straight trash
I can only keep repeating one sentence when this album comes up: Wine and candlelight dinner soft. Doesn't mean there isn't a place for if but this is a bedroom jam. When last has there been a Hip Hop album that's a bedroom jam? Exactly. This really isn't Hip Hop. Drizzy turned in an RnB album with all the hype he had, ridiculous.
They haven't released an album since 2004 and since 2004 the game done changed.
What project is this on?

If you still aren't enrolled for health insurance, United Way navigator Crystal Bourland will walk you through the process step-by-step at Sunday's enrollment event at Juneau's downtown library.
"If you're uninsured right now, underinsured, or you purchase your own plan and that's either changing or it's been cancelled or you want to see if you can find some more affordable options, then this is really specifically for those people to kind of get plugged in and hopefully get some help," Bourland says about Sunday's event.
Fifteen laptops will be available for people who are ready to start the application process or may have begun but haven't completed enrollment. "It really just depends on where people are at and if they have the correct information on them. It could be that maybe they just set up an account that day, and hopefully some people can go all the way through the process," Bourland says. "There are a few stages of it and some of it will depend on how prepared people are coming into it."
For Sunday's Enrollment Event, bring or know the following:
- Date of birth
- Social security number
- Income verification (pay stubs, W-2 forms, 2012 taxes)
- Birth certificate, U.S. Resident Card, passport (or anything to verify qualifying immigration status)
- Policy numbers of those in household who have insurance
- Your email and password
Bourland says for Sunday's event, it's important to know dates of birth and social security numbers for everyone in your household; bring income verification, like a 2012 tax return or a pay stub; policy numbers of individuals in the household who do have health insurance; and some sort of photo identification.
Monday is the final day to enroll for coverage to start Jan. 1. Otherwise, the open enrollment period goes through March 31. "People have that amount of time to sign up and enroll in a health care plan and not face a penalty for not having insurance," says Bourland.
People who don't have medical insurance in 2014 will face a tax penalty of $95, which goes up each year.
Sunday's health insurance enrollment event is from 2 to 4 p.m. at the downtown library.

The Sauber Team have announced that drivers Kamui Kobayashi and Sergio Perez will remain with the team for 2012.
19 year-old GP2 driver Esteban Gutierrez will also remain as reserve team driver.
Eyebrows were raised when Sauber announced their driver line-up for the 2011 Formula One World Championship. With only one full season under Kobayashi's belt, the Japanese driver was thrusted into the position of team leader, while Mexican rookie driver Sergio Perez was given his first chance in Formula One.
Many thought the team lacked experience, but the two drivers have worked well and impressed the team enough to go with the same line-up next season.
We are very pleased with our drivers, Kamui has grown into his role extremely well this year. Though it is only his second full Formula One season, he is already taking on the responsibilities that naturally fall to the more experienced driver in the team. We are delighted with him at both a sporting and a personal level. We had an option of working with him in 2012 and there was never any doubt that we would take it. Sauber team principal Peter Sauber told formula1.com.
Sergio has achieved more than one could expect from a rookie, From the very first race he proved that he is capable of driving not only fast but consistently as well.' He added.
Not only has Perez impressed on the track he has also impressed off it, following his heavy crash in Monaco, the young rookie took the sensible decision to withdraw from the Canadian Grand Prix when he felt unwell during a practice session.
Perez had been past fit by the FIA medical staff, but Perez showed great maturity in taking a cautious approach to his recovery, while other drivers may have thought they couldn't take the risk of giving up a drive and handing someone else a chance to impress.
Sauber continued: 'After the accident in Monaco he demonstrated that he can handle difficult situations too. From the outset we had already signed a contract with Sergio that went beyond 2011. With a rookie that always entails a certain risk, of course, but clearly it has paid off.
