""At its core, Driving Technical Change is a fantastic book about design patterns. In it, Terrence Ryan clearly outlines common, problematic personalities--"skeptics"--and provides proven solutions for bringing about progressive change. It is certainly an unfortunate fact of human behavior that people are oftentimes resistant to implementing best practices; however, using Terry's book as a guide, you will now be able to identify why people push back against change and what you can do to remain successful in the face of adversity.""--Ben Nadel, Chief Software Engineer, Epicenter Consulting
""Politics is one of the most challenging and underestimated subjects in the field of technology. Terrence Ryan has tackled this problem courageously and with a methodical approach. His book can help you understand many types of resistance (both rational and irrational) and make a strategy for getting people on board with your technology vision.""--Bill Karwin, Author of "SQL Antipatterns: Avoiding the Pitfalls of Database Programming"

As an evangelist his job is to encourage people to try new tools and techniques. Before that, he spent ten years in higher education overseeing the work of a team of developers, running code reviews, pushing standards, and trying to convince co-workers to come around to new tools and techniques.

This book consist of three parts (ignoring the introduction section in the beginning). The first part defines types of stereotypical resisters. The second part defines techniques to convince them and the third provides a strategy on how to use these techniques.
The first part defines seven types of stereotypical resisters: the uninformed, the herd, the burned, the cynic, the time crunched, the boss and the irrational. The author uses these stereotypes as extremes which he then can explain the techniques with. I personally was very uncomfortable with these seven stereotypes and didn't think of them as useful thinking tools. Grouping people in boxes like this is incredibly counter productive.
The second part defines techniques to use to convince 'skeptics'. Most the the techniques were fairly obvious, such as deliver the message or find synergy. I liked the fact that the author focused a lot on solving the right problem rather than selling what you believe in and that the author focused on gaining expertise first. It makes the techniques less like silver bullet tools that will solve all your problems.
The last part was about strategy. It describes how to first convince people who are ready and not to waste your effort on people who are not ready. I think this is sound advise. However, in the end the author suggested that it was a good idea to convince management to enforce a policy. I regret that there is still such a command & control traditional management aspect in the book. As the author later shares in his own story, advise like this frequently backfires to policies being enforced that aren't useful anymore.
Driving Technical Change is about 130 pages. It is an easy and quick read. The advise is useful, however the stereotypes are IMHO a little dangerous. The only advise I disagreed with was the strong management enforcing comments made in the end. Overall, the book had some good ideas, yet I wouldn't recommend this book when driving technical change. Instead I'd point people to Linda Rising and Mary Lynn Manns change patterns book called Fearless Change: Patterns for Introducing New Ideas. So, the book isn't bad, but it isn't very good either. I'd go for between 2 and 3 stars and decided to go to 3 stars because it is an easy read.
First, a disclaimer: I have a lot of experience in this area, as I worked somewhat recently with a team that was resistant to a lot of changes. I, along with a small handful of other members, repeatedly tried to get buy-in on tools and techniques. Occasionally, we were met with success, but more often we were met with failure.
This book made a LOT of sense of what happened at that company. After reading it, I have a much better understanding of why we failed and succeeded when we did, and what we could have done differently.
Driving Technical Change is a patterns book. Rather than design or architecture patterns, it contains people patterns. The author, Terrence Ryan, argues that most people who are resistant to change fall into one of seven patterns of skepticism. Each pattern is different, and must be dealt with in different ways. As with design patterns, a lot of the patterns are just common sense, but because Ryan gives a very specific name to each pattern, it is useful as a shared vocabulary among forward-thinking techies. It's not immediately obvious from the titles of the patterns exactly what they all mean, so it's helpful to read the book; when I looked at just the titles of the chapters I couldn't decide what one particular co-worker was, but after reading the book I completely knew.
The rest of the book is devoted to different strategies, and which ones are effective against which skeptic patterns. This portion of the book is also useful, though occasionally it feels a bit padded due to structure. Again, it's a lot of common sense, but the author words it in a way that makes it really hit home. There are only a few books that I feel really help tech-minded developers grow the soft skills that they really need to thrive in the industry, and I wouldn't hesitate to add Driving Technical Change to that list.
Though a lot of it is common sense, it can be argued that most of the seminal The Pragmatic Programmer is also common sense. Both are worth reading. Driving Technical Change still gave me some moments to think about and some good advice to internalize, and I'd recommend it for someone forward-thinking in the software industry.
Some people might argue that the book's attitude, which effectively categorizes those who resist changes you are trying to implement at work as enemy combatants, is antagonistic. In an ideal world, all technical change would be a group decision, and the entire team would drive things forward together. It would be nice if this were true, but anyone who has worked in the industry for a little while knows that this is a naive viewpoint. The fact is, when you're certain that a particular tool or technique would help your team and your product, there are sometimes people who put barrier after barrier in your way. It's nearly unavoidable to see these people as enemies (or at least, obstacles). This book doesn't pussy-foot around this fact, it acknowledges it and provides strategies for defeating hostile co-workers. If this seems too harsh to you, I'd recommend giving the book a second look two or three years from now when you'll see things more as they are.
Of course the correct way is selling it to your colleagues, but of course there are different types of people to conquer and Terry groups these into the seven groups of skeptics:
* The Uninformed
* The Herd
* The Cynic
* The Burned
* The Time Crunched
* The Boss
* The Irrational
Terry covers each of this with their own chapter and gives you tips on how to spot them. Once they have been introduced, you will, as I did, start to think of people you currently work with or people you have worked with in the past and put them into these groupings.
Terry talks through nine techniques, on how to counter these groups of skeptics. Each technique counters a few of the groups, so you need to decide which technique you will need to use to over come them:
* Gain Expertise
* Deliver Your Message
* Demonstrate Your Technique
* Create Trust
* Propose Compromise
* Get Publicity
* Focus on Synergy
* Build a Bridge
* Create Something Compelling
Each of the techniques has a nice little introduction with tips on how to perform them, and why they work. He also indicates which of the groups of sceptics that the technique counters and any pitfalls you might encounter.
Terry's last section of the book covers some strategies on putting these techniques to use and getting to your end game plan.
All in all, the entire book is a great for anyone who is always looking to improve the process where they work, and always seem to hit a break wall. Reading the book won't make this happen over night but will certainly arm you with some good ideas how to get the ball rolling.
For me this was a vivid portrayal, that I could instantly relate to having working with the full spectrum of such people.
He gives advice on how to handle these groups of people, and basically create allies, converting the masses to your cause, but in such a way as to not come across as blowing your own trumpet.
In essence this boils down to converting the low hanging fruit (colleagues) to your cause and gradually tackling the more challenging ones. Garnering such support you don't appear to be a lone crusader when presenting your case to management and if you heed the advice given on handling situations correctly, you can avoid appearing confrontational.
It also clarifies how to allocate and your time productively building relationships with colleagues and not expending effort on the irrational.
Some of the IT terminology would be alien to people outside this arena, but the psychology lessons could equally be applied to other industries.
A good book, I could have done with reading years ago. As a result I'd probably have a few less battle scars right now! Going forward I'm sure it's something that will help me in my career.
Oh. On a final note, I learnt about Google Alerts. Had never used them before. Cool tip.

After catching a start by knuckleballer R.A. Dickey in a 9-6 win over the Minnesota Twins on Sunday, Josh Thole's future with the Blue Jays is uncertain.
The Toronto Blue Jays would ideally like to carry three catchers on their roster once September hits, but they run the risk of losing Josh Thole through release waivers.
We'll always have Vancouver 2010, but Canada's performance at the Rio Olympics may even be a little more remarkable. With young stars like Andre De Grasse and Penny Oleksiak, we should make the most of it.

Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development Commissioner Bill Hagerty along with NHK Seating of America, Inc. officials announced plans to expand its facility on Joe B. Jackson Parkway in Murfreesboro, Tn. NHK's continued expansion represents a $6.8 million investment and will create approximately 94 new jobs in Rutherford County.
"Tennessee continues to prove our business-friendly environment is the ideal climate for advanced manufacturing companies to succeed," Commissioner Hagerty said. "NHK Seating of America is not only growing but thriving thanks to a highly skilled and available workforce and one of the lowest tax burdens in the country."
"NHK Seating of America, Inc. continues to add associates and capital equipment to support increasing production volume at our facility in Murfreesboro. Corporate management would like to acknowledge our appreciation for the continuing support of the community leaders of Murfreesboro and Rutherford County," NHK Seating Murfreesboro Plant Manager Fred Myers said. "We have been able to meet our milestone objectives to date and are pleased with the quality of our associates, both in management and production most of whom came to us from the local community. NHK is excited about the continued growth and business with our partners in Tennessee and look forward to a long business relationship."
"Since they came to Rutherford County in 2010, NHK has been a great business partner," Rutherford County Chamber of Commerce President Paul Latture said. "We congratulate them on their expansion, which will add 94 new jobs to our community."
NHK plans to add a robotic weld cell that will use robots to manufacture automotive seat structures at the Murfreesboro facility. NHK's investment will go toward installation of this equipment as well as the possibility of additional space for shipping and receiving.

Recent Philadelphia & Its Countryside reviews
"The Linhaven Lodge was all we expected and more. A beautiful quiet cabin in the woods. It was clean and well stocked just as was advertised. Plenty of room for 5 adults, a 15 month old and a very happy golden retriever. I think it took all week to see all the interesting signs and decorations throughout the cabin. We set up a game/camera about 100 yards in the woods behind the cabin. We had pictures of several deer, lots of squirrels, an opossum and a small bear. We had a fire in the fire ring every evening except Thursday that was interrupted by a thunderstorm. We toured the Endless Mountain War Memorial in Sonestown. A private collection of military equipment that has to be seen to be believed. We went to the Eagles Mere Air and Car museum, again a private collection of pre World War II aircraft most of which can still fly. The car museum with over 100 cars and trucks many restored but several are "farm fresh". Both the War Memorial and Air and Car museum are open on the summer weekends only. We went to both Worlds End and Rickets Glen State Parks. I'm not sure who had more fun in the water my 15 month grand daughter or the golden retriever. For local restaurants we highly recommend the Colley Pub and the High Knob Inn. I would definetly recommend the Linhaven Lodge to anyone looking for a quiet relaxing time in Sullivan County."Guest: Thomas L. Date of Stay: August 2016 Review Submitted: August 24, 2016View listing
"Six of us stayed here for a long wedding weekend (July 2016) and cannot recommend it highly enough. The house is lovely and comfortably appointed - fabulous gourmet kitchen - beautiful, private garden with fountains, very tranquil. Absolutely immaculate. The location is a short drive/walk from New Hope / Lambertville (less than a mile). This was an effortless stay for us, and Diana, our hostess, made us feel very welcome and well cared for. Note that there was a heatwave and the house was completely cool and comfortable. This area is lots of fun for antiquing, dining, exploring history, hiking, biking etc etc., and this house is a welcome place to return to at the end of a full day. Diana left lots of helpful information about the house, local restaurants, grocery stores, and left wine and desserts for us on our arrival. As others have noted, the house is antique and the stairs are steep so small children / those with mobility issues may have difficulties. We did not experience any problems. The kitchen and grille are top of the line and I wish we had more time to use them! Beds and linens are wonderful. We hope to return."Guest: Mary Jo H.

The present invention relates to a system and method for cooling the shaft of a gear pump rotor in which a cooling medium is supplied axially through the shaft.
Because of the rheological characteristics of the lubricating medium, particularly when a conveying medium is used as a lubricating medium of slide bearings of the rotors, it is expedient in many applications of gear pumps to provide a shaft cooling or a lubricating medium cooling in order to dissipate the heat generated in the bearings, particularly in the slide bearings. As a result, a lower bearing temperature is achieved.
Normally, a shaft cooling system has an extremely simple construction. As illustrated in FIG. 1, which is a simplified axial sectional view of a known gear pump rotor 1, the shaft 3 has an axial bore 5 which passes through both bearing areas on the projecting shaft sections 7 as well as the shaft area 7v in the toothing area. In the following, the toothing area 7v is that area of the rotor shaft which is situated radially under the toothing irrespective of whether the gear wheel and the shaft are constructed as one part or as multiple parts.
A deflecting tube 11 projects into the axial bore 5, almost to the one-sided bore end 9. By way of a rotary sealing connection which is not shown, the cooling medium is fed to the deflecting tube 11, flows through this tube in an axial manner, is radially deflected at the end of the tube 11 in order to axially flow back in the countercurrent or vice versa. According to the preceding sign of the temperature difference, the cooling medium absorbs heat on its flow path or conveys heat. Reference is made in this respect to German Patent Document DE-A- 42 11 516.
A significant disadvantage of this cooling approach is the fact that, except for the cooling medium temperature which rises along the length of the bore and except for the different radial heat currents which normally flow out of the areas of the bearing and toothing areas, the shaft 7, 7v is cooled without any differences. This may result in a cooling effect in the area of the toothing 13 which results in an undesirably extensive lowering of the temperature level in the tooth base.
It is an object of the present invention to eliminate this disadvantage.
This object is achieved according to the invention by means of a cooling method of the initially mentioned type, wherein a lower heat conduction to the cooling medium per axial dimension unit is established in a toothed area of the shaft than in other shaft areas to be cooled with respect to identical cylinder surfaces on the toothed and other shaft areas.
As the result of the fact that according to the invention, a lower heat conduction to the cooling medium per axial dimension unit in the toothed area of the shaft is provided, with a view to the same cylinder surfaces, than in the other shaft areas to be cooled, particularly the bearing areas, is now established, it is achieved that the above-mentioned disadvantageous cooling of the toothing is considerably reduced without any influence on the desired cooling effect, particularly in the bearing areas.
According to especially preferred embodiments, the advantageous results are achieved in a preferable manner in that a gas insulation, particularly an air insulation, is established in the toothing area 7v, and/or a solid-body insulation, and/or the cooling medium contact surface in the toothing area per axial dimension unit is reduced in comparison to the above-mentioned contact surface on shaft areas which are intended to be cooled.
With respect to a gear pump rotor of the initially mentioned type, the object on which the present invention is based is achieved by a construction with reduced cooling in the gear tooth areas.
Certain preferred embodiments of the gear pump rotor according to the invention include air insulation sections near the toothed area. Other embodiments include solid insulation sections near the toothed area. Yet other embodiments include a shaft and cooling tube configuration with reduced heat conduction area in the area of the gear toothing.
Other objects, advantages and novel features of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description of the invention when considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a view of a known gear pump shaft cooling system;
FIG. 2 is a view of a cut-out in a representation which is analogous to that of FIG. 1 of a first embodiment of a gear pump rotor shaft assembly according to the invention for the implementation of the method according to the invention in a first variant;
FIG. 3 is a representation which is analogous to FIG. 2 of a rotor according to the invention as a second variant or of a second variant for implementing the method according to the invention; and
FIG. 4 is a view of a third variant of the gear pump rotor according to the invention or of the method according to the invention.
In FIG. 2, in which as well as in the following figures, the same reference numbers as in FIG. 1 are selected for the same parts, a jacket tube 15 is fitted into the rotor shaft bore 5, which jacket tube 15 rests on the wall of the bore 5, particularly on shaft areas to be cooled by means of its outer wall, ensuring a good heat transmission. The outside diameter of the jacket tube 15 is reduced in the toothing area 7v, whereby an annular groove 17 is formed in this outer wall. Together with the wall of the bore 5, this groove 17 forms an annular air chamber 19 which ensures a significantly lower heat conduction per axial dimension unit between the shaft and the cooling medium in the toothing area 7v than on areas--viewed onto the same cylinder surfaces Z--one of which being entered as an example in FIG. 2.
According to FIG. 3 of the invention, the above-mentioned heat conduction is reduced in the toothing area 7v because of the fact that a solid-body insulator 21 is provided on a jacket tube 15a in the toothing area 7v, whether--as illustrated--by means of the implementation of a jacket tube wall section made of a temperature-resistant insulation material or by means of an inner and/or outer wall coating of the jacket tube with such a material.
In the case of the variant according to FIG. 4, the surface, for example, of a jacket tube 15b is enlarged in the shaft areas 7 to be cooled per axial dimension unit, for example, by providing a grooving pattern 23 in these sections, in contrast to the construction of the inner surface of the jacket tube as a smooth cylinder surface in the toothing area 7v. As clearly illustrated in FIG. 4 and as indicated by an interrupted line at reference number 21a, it is easily possible to combine the providing of enlarged contact surfaces toward the cooling medium on shaft areas to be cooled with the providing of a thermal solid-body insulator 21a in the toothing area, and possibly even, as an alternative or in addition, reduce the outside diameter of the jacket tube 15b according to the construction of FIG. 2 in order to keep the cooling in the toothing area optimally low.
Although the invention has been described and illustrated in detail, it is to be clearly understood that the same is by way of illustration and example, and is not to be taken by way of limitation. The spirit and scope of the present invention are to be limited only by the terms of the appended claims.

-'Daddy? If the Almighty would tell you to climb a mountain and sacrifice me, as he did to Abraham... would you obey him?
-'Of course.'
Thus answered Yaacov his son Gamaliel. We are in Jerusalem, in the era of Christ. Gamaliel, a small boy of ten and his father have just sacrificed a goat for the Pessach feast in the Temple. He collides with the guardians of the Temple during a brawl that evolves into a riot, finally suppressed by the Roman legion. From that moment on, Yaacov, who is considered to be the instigator of the riot, is an outlaw and must flee the city after he is separated from his son. Two deserting soldiers, Cotus and Camulos, who take him along on their flight, collect Gamaliel. Revolutions, repression: Gamaliel is entangled beyond his will in the big adventure... under the olive trees of Judea.

Lobbyists for movie and recording industries are pushing Senate Commerce Chairman Ted Stevens, (R-AK), to give the FCC authority to mandate copy protection technology for movies and music, a public advocacy group has revealed. The provision is being sought in the pending DTV legislation that is set to be completed this month.
Public Knowledge, a public advocacy group focusing on digital copyright issues, circulated draft language that it said the Motion Picture Association of America and the Recording Industry Association of America are floating on Capitol Hill.
The movie studios want the FCC to have regulatory authority over television equipment in order to prevent the mass, online redistribution of high-definition entertainment, the National Journal reported. The RIAA and other artist and music groups are worried that consumers will be able to use software to record and create libraries of high-quality music via digital radio. Some artists worry the practice could undermine revenue they could earn through digital downloads.
Mitch Glazier, senior vice president for the RIAA, told the <>Journal that his group has not yet presented the final language to Stevens. The document circulated by Public Knowledge would authorize the FCC to regulate both digital audio broadcasts and receiving devices.
The U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia in May overturned FCC rules mandating that all digital TV sets contain technology to prevent the piracy of flagged content. The court said the FCC had exceeded its regulatory jurisdiction because Congress never authorized it to mandate copy protection schemes for TV manufacturers.
Glazier said the RIAA wants Congress to specifically give the agency such authority over copy protection standards for fear of future lawsuits. Both Public Knowledge and the Consumer Electronics Association are against the proposal.
Michael Petricone, CEA's vice president of technology policy, told the Journal the phrase "unauthorized copying and redistribution of digital audio content" included in the RIAA's communications would even ban making copies for personal use and shifting content between devices inside the home. These, he said, are long-established consumer rights that are protected by fair use standards for copyrighted content.

I am both a little surprised–but very delighted–to say that the Chromagraphic Pencils work wonderfully on the waterline. They look lovely–very fresh and awake–without being too light. I used NC/NW15 on my waterline as soon as I had finished photographing them (nobody likes to see used stuff photograph, yeah?), and here I am three hours later with it still hanging on. I'd definitely say to grab one when you're able to if you've always wanted an easy way to open up and brighten your eyes.Read Full Review

This is a charming nautical design, Isabella! It has a lovely, fair weather day for sailing, look. I can see it being used as wallpaper on a feature wall for someone who wanted to give a wide-open-spaces feel to their home! It would also look great as curtains, with matching soft furnishings.

Our family of 3 adults is taking a 29' Sunseeker RV out to the Black Hills from Sept 3-10th this year. This is our first time doing this, so we will be renting the RV and have it picked out.
Main Question:
We are finding ourselves overwhelmed at all of the campsites available in the Black Hills area. We are needing hook up to electric and water. We want nice scenery, a place to fish preferably on site, and a quiet area but not necessarily remote. Any suggestions?
We like Custer State Park and the surrounding areas to that for camping locations. So far the one we are looking at that we like the best is Sylvan Lake Campgrounds. Any suggestions, affirmation, cautions, etc would be much appreciated.
We have done a fair amount of research on this trip so far, but if anyone has a tip for a family of "rookie" RV campers, we are all ears.
Thanks! I love this forum. So many helpful people out there.

Red Tornado is of course a superhero in DC Comic continuity but it appears hell be a malevolent creation (least at first) for the purposes of the new CBS drama.
Robots wearing proverbial white and black hats are of course a staple of comic book and sci-fi, so here's a look at some of the most famous 10… no, scratch that, 9 Totally Awesome Robots That Also Fight & Commit Crime…
Robby's got such an iconic look, that the same prop appeared in multiple subsequent movies and TV shows, ranging from The Twilight Zone to Mork & Mindy. The plainly named Robot from 1965-1969's Lost in Space ("Danger, Will Robinson!") took several visual cues from Robby, and both share a common designer, Robert Kinoshita. Bringing things full circle, Robby appeared in a couple episodes of Lost in Space.
Ultron was created with the best of intentions by founding Avenger Hank Pym known as both Giant-Man and Ant-Man and first appeared in 1968's Avengers #54.
The character of course recently ran roughshod over the team as the primary villain in Avengers: Age of Ultron.
Voice actor John DiMaggio brought Bender to life beginning with the show's premiere in 1999, with the bending unit becoming the standout character among a cast that also includes a Cyclops and lobster doctor. Without Bender's unique, abrasive charm, it's hard to imagine the show having the success it's had.
Given the historical significance, why isn't Gort higher? Well, he's still got a bit of the stink from the critically reviled 2008 The Day the Earth Stood Still remake on him.
Robots gaining intelligence and overthrowing their human superiors has long been a sci-fi trope oh, the irony! but perhaps never realized quite as profoundly as in Battlestar Galactica, especially the 2004 reimagination. In the latter series, Cylons weren't just robot conquerors, but also evolved into 12 humanoid models, virtually indistinguishable from humans down to the biological level.
And sure, they wiped out most of the human race, but this wrinkle also made the Cylons sympathetic, raising all sorts of provocative questions about religion, politics, and the nature of life. (And for the most part, they tended to be pretty easy on the eyes.)
Episodes like "The Measure of a Man" dealt with the issue of artificial versus organic intelligence, and then there was that infamous season one tryst with Tasha Yar, where the Lt. Commander went where no robot had gone before.
Data experienced further growth in the films, gaining an emotion chip in Generations and (decades-old spoiler alert!) sacrificing himself to save the Enterprise crew in Nemesis.
Of course, he's not just good for pontificating he can kick Decepticon butt like no one else, as seen in full display during Transformers: Age of Extinction. And could the death of any other fictional robot on this list evoke the type of visceral response in a nation's youth like Prime's in the 1986 The Transformers: The Movie animated film? (He was later resurrected in the cartoon, to the comfort of many.)
The character is also central to one of the biggest franchises in movie history, dating back to the 1984 original and the smash-hit 1991 sequel, Judgement Day. That film introduced the liquid-metal T-1000, and subsequent films and the Sarah Connor Chronicles TV series have added more versions to the mythos, but for this list we're celebrating the original as played by Arnold Schwarzenegger effective as both a bad guy in the first and a good guy (who could forget the thumbs up in the molten lava?) in the second and in the latest, which looks like it may be the last.
R2-D2's lists of credits include assisting Luke Skywalker during the destruction of the original Death Star, serving as an invaluable asset to Obi-Wan and Anakin in the prequels, and rescuing the gang from Jabba the Hutt in Return of the Jedi. He's a mechanic, a communications device, a friend and pretty much whatever you need at any given moment; all that while communicating solely in beeps and whistles.
So why R2 over his long-time companion C-3PO? Well, though C-3PO is handy with languages and provides plenty of comic relief in the films, he isn't quite as ubiquitously useful as R2. Plus, R2's look is among the most indelible visuals in film. Remember the R2-themed mailboxes during the 30th anniversary of A New Hope? Who hasn't seen an R2 cookie jar, or the R2 cell phone introduced a few years back by Verizon Wireless? Go to a comic book convention and try to walk five paces without running into a remote-controlled R2 prowling the exhibit floor. Heck the droid even infiltrated the world of women's fashion, with an R2-D2 one-piece swimsuit.
In the world of robots, R2-D2 is its humble king.
