1 PERSPECTIVES How do you develop a Shared Understanding on an Agile project? Share this ebook. Exploring common approaches and their adaptations from real- world projects
2 Having a shared understanding of customer requirements is central to all aspects of Agile project development. User stories play a big part in cultivating a shared understanding. Thus getting your stories right is important. story (n) A story is a concise description of a customer s requirement on a card, used as a unit of work on an Agile project that can be tracked. It serves as a placeholder for a collaborative conversation between the customer and the team. Its completeness is verified by confirmation with the customer s criteria Share this ebook: 2
3 So...how do you write the perfect story? There is no such way. That being said, let's explore some common ways of thinking about stories and how you can use those to create stories that best suit your team Share this ebook: 3
4 INVEST in a good story The INVEST guideline for story writing Independent Negotiable Valuable Estimable Small Testable 2013 Share this ebook: 4
5 INVEST in a good story Pay by Visa Pay by MasterCard Pay by AmEx Independent Negotiable Valuable Estimable Small Testable Pay by Credit Card Do not overlap your stories in concept. When sequencing the stories, try to find their natural order. The order of stories should not restrict your customer s ability to re prioritize or move stories out of scope Share this ebook: 5
6 INVEST in a good story As a purchaser, I want the receipt to display the date of my purchase in ISO 8601 format Comic Sans 12pt font with 9pt leading, so that I can maintain my records. Independent Negotiable Valuable Estimable Small Testable As a purchaser, I want the receipt to indicate when I completed the purchase, so that I can maintain my records. Stories are negotiable...and negotiated. Remember, your story is the essence of the requirement and not an explicit contract. Sign off stories with working software. Avoid signing off written stories before they are played, as it creates contractual documents that shift the focus to documentation Share this ebook: 6
7 INVEST in a good story Independent Negotiable Valuable Estimable Small Testable As a developer/dba, I want a new table in the Orders DB to capture shipping information, so that??? As a customer, I want to be able to specify my preferred shipping details, so that I can ship to an address other than my billing address Your stories need to be valuable to and understandable by your customer. They need to be framed from your customer s perspective. If it is difficult to write the "so that... part easily, you might want to consider the story s value and purpose. Avoid layer-based development. Instead choose vertical slices of functionality. Technical debt are not user stories Share this ebook: 7
8 INVEST in a good story Independent Negotiable Valuable Estimable Small Testable As a good world citizen, I want world peace, so that we can all live in harmony. As a movie goer, I want to be able to pay by Paypal, so that I don t have to use my credit card. Your stories should have boundaries so you know when you are done and what is required to be done. Your stories should be digestible by the team so they can size them. Keep your stories understandable and of consistent granularity. Spike stories that your team has difficulty understanding. Avoid catch-all stories with uncertain estimates. Don t get bogged with precision and detail Share this ebook: 8
9 INVEST in a good story As a movie goer, I want to be able to find and purchase movie tickets online, so that I have something to do tonight. Independent Negotiable Valuable Estimable Small Testable As a movie goer, I want to be able to find a movie by title, so that I can quickly locate the details of a movie I am interested in. Keep your stories small enough to be measured and tracked. Keep your story descriptions short and concise. Stories should be measured in days not weeks Share this ebook: 9
10 INVEST in a good story Improve readability All acronyms replaced with complete terminology Independent Negotiable Valuable Estimable Small Testable A user must never have to wait long for a screen to appear New screens appear within 2 seconds 95% of time To know when your story is done, it needs to be testable. Define acceptance criteria that are clear and precise so you know when you are done and have delivered value. First define your tests and then develop Share this ebook: 10
11 Try a format that works for you User focused As a <role> I want <goal> so that <value> It is written in the first person. Keeps the value in the "so that". Do not skip the so that part, that is very important. As value is not always clear, this format is hard for some teams Share this ebook: 11
12 Try a format that works for you Feature Injection In order to <achieve the vision> As a <stakeholder> I want <value> Helps you see the big picture by putting the vision first. Focuses on the user and the why. Shows that features are necessary to realize the vision, not the other way. Don t focus on the wording. What s important is to find a way of keeping the business value in the conversation. When talking about the capabilities, focus on the user Share this ebook: 12
13 Try a format that works for you Five Ws As a <Who> <When> <Where>, I <What> because <Why> The first person is in the who. When and where help with context and scenario setting. The value is in the why. The what can drive to solutions too soon Share this ebook: 13
14 Try a format that works for you Given, when, then Given <some initial context> when <an event occurs> then <ensure some outcomes> Probably the most common format that is used to break down a story into acceptance criteria. Can be used as scenarios to break down a larger story with specifics. Good for handling uncertain and unclear scenarios. Can help with BDD (Business Driven Design) and automation. Avoid stating the obvious and creating too many scenarios Share this ebook: 14
15 How do we adapt these patterns to suit our needs? Let s see how some ThoughtWorkers did it Share this ebook: 15
16 Shu Ha Ri Jeffrey, Principal Consultant, BA I once started a debate on how to write a User Story. The most popular style by far is As a <role>, I want <functionality> in order to <achieve a certain value>. I am not a big fan of this style because I find most teams either write poor value statements or don t write them at all. There is power in understanding the value and agile teams are missing this when the user stories are short changed. I find it s easier to write a user story when we start with value: In order to <achieve some value>, as a <role> I want <something>. A part of Feature Injection, this puts more importance on the value portion of the story. This means we talk about the good stuff more and it even helps reduce scope creep. The problem I had with the debate was not the answers though. The problem was when other survey respondents said, I just do whatever I think will work best. Argh! Losing Mastery Our best chance for success comes from knowing how to use our tools. My problem with picking any old style is its result: failing to spend time mastering any style. We are constantly jumping to the next big thing. Unfortunately, the deck is stacked against us because the rate of change is accelerating. Technology and our professions are running at an ever-faster pace. Fast enough that we re losing even the chance to focus. No masters. Skills, entire professions, especially in tech, now run a 100-year life cycle in a decade or less. No one gains the wisdom of years. - John McWade, The Vanishing Master The nature of learning and mastery is the need to take time and practice. You cannot get good at something without making the effort to practice over time, deliberately trying to get better. For example, I used to interview a lot of candidates who often had a title like Senior Analyst or DBA III. But these candidates had not learned enough to perform the basics of their job, they just stayed in the position long enough to be promoted. Without practice, the years spent in the role had not translated into growth or expertise, just time. Time spent practicing, however, can lead to big changes. Watch the beginning of the TED Talk by Benjamin Zander. He starts with visual and auditory demonstration of how practice leads to huge impacts over the course of a few years. (continued) 2013 Share this ebook: 16
17 Shu Ha Ri Jeffrey, Principal Consultant, BA (continued) Gaining Mastery I was recently coaching a very process bound client. Multiple times a week I would get asked, "What's the best practice for this?" I try to tell them, "It depends," but they don't hear this message very well. They are still beginners and they recognize this. They want one path to follow because the freedom of Agile is troubling. This isn't a bad thing. In fact, I think their self-awareness of wanting a "best way" is probably a good thing. They are deep in a learning phase and it makes sense they study and practice one thing until they get it right. Supporting me, is the Shu Ha Ri model. Here's how Gojko Adzic described it in Bridging the Communication Gap: Shu-ha-ri is a learning model associated with Aikido. It roughly translates to "obey-detach-leave." At the first level (Shu - "obey"), a student learns by closely following one model. At the second level (Ha - "detach"), the student learns that there are multiple models and solutions. At the third level (Ri - "leave"), the student goes beyond following models. As I read about people who are really good at their craft, I read about how current masters are rediscovering the joy of going back to Shu - "obey." It's striking to me how often I read an article about how people who are excelling are discovering their creativity shines brighter when they find themselves stuck within constraints. They achieve more within the restrictions than they were able to outside of them! My Conclusion I am afraid we are reaching outside of the constraints stories give us before we have really mastered them. My fear is we are taking the easy way out. Reaching for the next thing or what's easiest. Missing the journey leading us to be masters of our craft. Maybe it's just in my head, but I know too many Business Analysts and Product owners who focus on writing quickly to get it done, not thinking about what's right. However, regardless of which format you use, we must be mindful throughout the writing journey to assure we produce and deliver value, and with reason. Forced Constraints 2013 Share this ebook: 17
18 None of the above I've written stories with both the traditional Agile (ala Mike Cohn) and Feature Injection formats and find both unsatisfactory. Something just doesn't sit well when I'm trying to fit the essence of a story into a prefab form. If I have to follow a format, I spend more time trying to conform to the format than distilling the valuable work that needs to get done. The rigidity of formats can compromise the ability to communicate value and purpose; they make the story writing process feel unnatural, if not forced. So, I find myself moving toward "free form" story writing. One of our customers recently asked a similar question about how to achieve consistency across user stories. My response: "I would encourage BAs to write stories that capture value in a manner that is best suited to the team and the project. Forcing a structure or format could inhibit teams from effectively capturing value or create more needless work (i.e. waste) by making it more difficult to. As long as the story captures value and the team understands why you re playing it, the format doesn t really matter. (continued) Melissa, BA This all said -- and here I go contradicting myself -- if I find the structure of traditional formats helpful in distilling the value of a story, I'll use them, as in the following example: As a scrum master I want to create a card by dragging the magic card onto a cell in the grid view so that I can intuitively specify where I want the newly created card to appear on the grid view. I simply don't want to have to use them. Teams should be able to work the way want to. Whatever form works best for the story, the writer and the team should be the form that is use Share this ebook: 18
19 None of the above (continued) There has been a lot of debate around the best way to write user stories. Regardless of your stance, it s important to recognize the exercise traditional story formats provide: focusing our attention on value and our efforts on answering the question, "Why?" Why are we investing in this work? Why will it provide value to the customer? (You might have other "why" questions to answer, but these are a few to keep in the forefront of your mind.) My point, in short: Traditional formats can be great for training purposes (and could be beneficial for multilingual distributed teams). But once you learn the rules, you should have the right to break them. Focus on fluidity and getting real. Stories regardless of what format they re written in should spark conversations that result in a shared understanding among the team and help continuously deliver value to the customer. Melissa, BA 2013 Share this ebook: 19
20 So that...so what? JK, PM, BA, Agile coach One of my biggest frustrations on a project is when we have stories that capture a solution rather than a goal. Often this leads to long conversations with the business to drive out exactly what it is that should be built and hinders the creativity of the development team in finding the best solution for the problem. A few of us got talking while doing an inception that the so that statement was often either repeating the requirement, was too general or was left off completely when capturing stories. This meant that we were missing the true goal of the business, leading to problems with scope and misunderstandings of what a story truly meant once we got into delivery. Let us examine some headlines: As a viewer I want to change channels on the TV with my remote so that the I can use the remote to change channels. Such headlines repeat the requirement as the business value and would be difficult to prioritize because we don t understand the benefit to the user. In really bad cases you end up with no business value at all which are both difficult to identify alternative solutions for and to prioritize - As a viewer I want to change channels on the TV with my remote control Of course there are always the times when a headline captures the true value of what the business is trying to achieve - As a viewer I want to change channels on the TV with my remote control so that I can watch different channels without needing to be in reach of the television. This story can be easily prioritized against other stories and alternative solutions identified, but the headline is too long winded to easily grasp what we are aiming to achieve. (continued) As a viewer I want to change channels on the TV with my remote so that I can watch different channels. Such vague headlines cause debate over alternative solutions that may or may not solve the problem. Is using the remote really necessary to watch different channels? 2013 Share this ebook: 20
21 So that...so what? (continued) So, how do we ensure that the true goal of the business is the most important thing captured in a headline? This isn t a silver bullet, but a potential solution that I ve now used successfully for almost a year is: Our remote control example now reads - As a viewer I want to change channels without being in reach of the tv by using my remote control. This states the same benefit to the viewer and solution as the good headline above, but in a much clearer and natural statement. We can prioritize it easily and the team has the ability to think of alternative solutions. It also makes it very difficult to run into the bad headlines from above. JK, PM, BA, Agile coach As a (role) I want (business value) by (method/ requirement) This forces the writer to capture the value and be specific with what what the story is aiming to achieve. At first I found it quite challenging, but soon realized that the difficulty wasn t because of the format, but that it was forcing me to have headlines which clearly stated the goal the business was trying to achieve. I wasn t allowed to wimp out! The feedback that I have received from the developers on the team has been very positive and it has helped to ensure a common understanding with the business. Additionally, the business value is attached to the strongest words of the statement ( I want ) and the method of delivering the business value is attached to the weaker word ( By ). In the traditional I want/ so that format it is the other way around. This makes a big difference in the conversations with the business when an alternative solution has been identified Share this ebook: 21
22 Now you ve got the perfect* story. * For your team. How do you share it? 2013 Share this ebook: 22
23 Involve the Team Huimin, BA Tell me, I forget. Show me, I remember. Involve me, I understand. Chinese Proverb As do most Agile teams, our teams have group time for product owners or business analysts to share user stories. We consciously practice the following three tactics to ensure quality interactions: 1. Why? We put a lot of effort in establishing team-wide shared understanding about why we are doing this? You can use narratives to do this: telling a story of your user story. For instance during the kick-off for a new release, we immersed our team in one of customer s life. We showed the customer s photo, reproduced a scene from her daily work, and quoted what she said about her pain points. Doing this can activate the team s creativity to solve problems for customers. 2. Where are we? In Agile teams, breaking work into digestible stories creates the need for a map to track and locate them in the overall user journey. When kicking off a specific story, never hesitate to spend time syncing audience with context. You can employ many different tools such as user story mapping or an activity map to track and share your current location. If you have access to a whiteboard, draw it out. Imagine yourself as a zoomable canvas that carries the map of your team s work. Choose the the right zooming level and use your own style to bring everyone to the same point. 3. What are the Acceptance Criteria? To define what the Acceptance Criteria are, I like drawing them out on the whiteboard and letting the team summarize what they see. Here s what I do. (continued) 2013 Share this ebook: 23
24 Involve the Team Huimin, BA Draw the existing scenario/page as the Given part. Using a different color point out the event trigger, the When part. Continue to draw out the expected Then part. Pause, let the team ask questions or make comments Using a different color capture the questions and comments. (continued) 2013 Share this ebook: 24
25 Involve the Team Huimin, BA Answer the questions on the list and add items which are important but weren t brought up by the team. Use this as a checklist along with the given-when-then as acceptance criteria for the story. (continued) 2013 Share this ebook: 25
26 Involve the Team (continued) FAQs Why don t I just use screenshots or hi-fi prototypes? They contain too many detailed page elements. Sketching omits noise, keeping the conversation focused and limiting analysis to include just-enough detail. Whiteboard sketching is generally better than a static picture, because you can change it as the conversation proceeds. What s after these 3 things? Sharing user stories is not a one-time thing. We need remain flexible to accommodate changes. Don t freeze the business requirement after the group communication. Keep the conversation going as needed; keep improving as we are committed to in the true agile spirit. Huimin, BA What do people do when I am drawing? Don t worry about the one or two minutes when people are waiting for you. Revealing the story progressively helps your audience become more actively involved. What if I have ten scenarios for my story? I only draw out the happy path in the given-whenthen format to establish the basic flow of the interaction. For the negative scenarios, I use a table or matrix, depending on situation. A bit of variety can prevent boredom Share this ebook: 26

arrived just like description and on time
Too gooey!! Consistency is like honey... It seemed to work after 3 applications, by that I mean the stinging and light itchy sensation, ( no pain to me it is not working for me) , but that depends on individual's skin. I am latina and I am used to getting facials and peels from medium to high tolerance without any bad side effects. I developed a small break out with heavy pinkish to light redness for 3 days itchy but no flakiness or peeling which I was hoping to get, after 3 days I applied my cermyciade capsule to stop the redness and itchiness and it stopped it immediately. I do not know if I will use it again I may give it one more try when I know I will not be going out in the sun for at least 3 days. So I would use caution with this product. Especially for individuals with hyper pigmentation sensitive skin. I am medium fair skin I do not tan out door or use tanning beds I use spray tanning in summer. I am in my 50's.Read More

doesn't do too much to lighten any spots.Read More

Really great results
I loved the results from this product. Be careful because it's very strong. The first time I used it I kept in on for two minutes, and thought that was too little. The second time I left it on for five minutes and burned my face, but I was still impressed with its potency. Two weeks later I used it for three minutes and that seems perfect.Read More
Great Product
I must say I ordered this product thinking I would try it and then just throw it our if I didn't like it. That said I didn't hold high hopes for results. I was wrong. This is a great product and as good as what i paid hundreds for at the dr's office. The one thing I love is the thickness of the serum. It really helps it go on smoothly and cover well. I am 100% please and will us this and save my money going forward. Skin looks great after the application. Awesome product.Read More
5 Star Worthy!
Excellent peel for the skin. I like the gel formula much better than the liquid peels because its easier to use and lasts longer. I'm glad to have found this seller, the product works like a professional peel. I use it once every 10 days or so and it exfoliates, cleans, and evens my skin tone. I highly recommend and will definitely be purchasing again.Read More
Peel leaves skin softer and brighter
After reading the reviews and cautions I was very careful about first use and only left the gel on for 30 seconds. There was a little tingling and my skin felt much softer. A week later, I used the gel again and left it on for one minute. My dark spots and even broken blood vessels seem to be fading. My skin is noticeably brighte and I feel better about occasionally going without makeup. I will continue to use this product.Read More
Excellent, baby soft skin
This is a strong gel peel. I have used it about 4 times now. All of my minor facial blemishes have disapeared. The receptionist at my job has commented on my skin several times since I started using this product. I tend to have dry facial skin, but now it appears so smooth and blemish free. Moisturizers work on my face a lot better now.Read More
Questions & Answers
Hello mydocjrt, this peel is designed to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and age spots. This peel works to reduce acne, uneven skin tone, warts, sunspots, scars and virtually any skin imperfection. Thank you for shopping with us.
"I have a few questions....can this be returned? I have not opened it yet. When does it expire? I am in the sun a lot since summer is coming and I do use a tanning bed. Can I be in the sun and use a tanning bed if I cover my face and use this product?"
Hello Linda M., we are still researching this and should have the answer shortly.
Hello Linda M., due to the personal nature of this product, we do not accept returns. The expiration date is on the bottom of the bottle. Yes, you can cover your face in the tanning bed and use the product. Just make sure to wear sunscreen SPF 30+ if you are going to be outside in the sun and if you are going to be tanning, cover your face well to block the UV light. Thank you for shopping with us!
Do NOT just try to cover your face, the UV rays will still get through and you will burn in a way you never knew possible. Even just going outside, use the highest SPF sunblock you can to prevent burning and wear a hat if possible. Peels and UV rays do not mix!
"Why did you choose this product?"
The reviews.
For fine line & wrinkles
Want to try it without pressure to sign up for month
i was going to get a peel done, this is cheaper
Purchased this peel because Lactic acid peels work well for me. I've never tried this brand before. The price is comparable to what I've purchased before & I figured I'd give this specific peel a shot since it also contains Kojic acid which lightens hyper pigmentation & helps even out skin tone while brightening your whole completion.. If this one isn't as good as the other one I buy? I'll let ya know..
I have read the reviews that are mostly positive.
Because I'm in my 50's and want to keep my skin as youthful as possible for as long as I possibly can.
The reviews are good and wanted to give it a try.
Is a USA product
I'm 62 and need to have my face shed its skin cells more frequently.

Need a facial peel product that had good reviews and was as strong as dermatologists office peels!
reading the reviews on this product it's seem to have some very good reviews on how it have help others clear up their skin. I have a few dark spots on my face want to see if this product will help remove them.
Good reviews. =) excited to try it.
"Can this product be used on the entire body?"
Hello None, Overstock can only recommend use as stated on the product packaging, but online information indicates this item has been successfully used to lighten freckles, age spots, pregnancy marks, stretch marks, acne scars, pigmentation and discoloration conditions of the face & body. Thank you for shopping with us.
"Can i use this product as Under Eye Hyper Pigmentation?"
Have not tried ti yet
My first reaction would be to say no. Although I have used it, I do avoid the eye area directly. Being an exfoliator it could be vary harmful to one's eyes.
"What's the pH level for this product?"
Lactic acid 50 %,Ingredients Lactic Acid, Deionized Water, Octoxynol 10, Kojic Acid, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Oil , Arctostaphylos Uva-Ursi (Bearberry) Extract, Glycyrrhiza Uralensis (Licorice) Root Extract, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf (Green Tea) Leaf Extract, Matricaria Recutita (Chamomile) Flower Extract, Symphytum Officinale (Comfrey) Leaf Extract, Propylene Glycol, Diazolidinyl Urea, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate.
Overstockcustomercare1 does not understand your question. The PH of a 50% lactic acid product is *approximately* 2.5 to 3.0 straight - if you want to buffer it add a papaya enzyme agent to buffer it down to a lower PH for daily use or sensitive skin.

The Nationals have placed utility man Jerry Hairston Jr. on the 15-day disabled list with a broken right wrist. Hairston was hit on the wrist by a Dan Haren pitch in Anaheim, Calif., on Wednesday and is expected to miss two to four weeks.
"I know what I can and can't do, and I think I'd be hurting the team if I'd be out there playing," Hairston said before the Nationals opened a weekend series against Pittsburgh on Friday. "The main thing is just get it healthy and hopefully be healthy in two weeks. It's one of those things where it's broke in a good area where it'll heal real quick."
The break is at the bony protuberance at the junction of the lower arm and wrist, and Hairston was sporting only a bandage at the site of the injury Friday afternoon. No cast will be needed, he said.
"Four (weeks) is just being really cautious," he said. "What I'm going to do for the next seven to 10 days is let it calm down and then start swinging the bat. If I can swing the bat and tolerate it, they'll let me go."
To take Hairston's place on the 25-man roster, the Nationals activated outfielder Rick Ankiel from the 15-day disabled list. Ankiel was placed on the DL on June 19, retroactive to June 15, with a strained rib-cage muscle.
Though Ankiel gives manager Davey Johnson a roster replacement, he hardly replaces Hairston's versatility. Hairston filled in at third base while Ryan Zimmerman was sidelined and has also played second base, left field and center field this season.
Johnson said he would keep Roger Bernadina in center field, meaning Ankiel will head to the bench.
"Basically, I'll be using Rick as a fourth outfielder," Johnson said.
Hairston is hitting .260 with two homers and 17 RBIs in 69 games. Ankiel is batting .204 with a home run and nine RBIs in 48 games.

Revolution outmuscled by Sporting KC

In the wake of Shalrie Joseph's departure, Clyde Simms donned the captain's armband for the Revs against Sporting Kansas City on Saturday.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass.--It didn't take long for the New England Revolution to learn what life would be like without Shalrie Joseph.
Three days after the team traded its veteran captain and rugged midfield commander to Chivas USA, the Revolution were manhandled by a physical Sporting Kansas City side, losing 1-0 at home to stretch their winless streak to five games and send them twelve points beyond playoff reach.
Kansas City's Teal Bunbury alertly capitalized on a poor connection between Clyde Simms and Stephen McCarthy in the 20th minute, after Benny Feilhaber was unable to handle a difficult Flo Lechner throw-in.
Sporting's athletic third-year striker pounced on the loose ball in full stride and after a couple of touches calmly pushed the breakaway opportunity inside the far post for the game's only score.
"It was a poor throw-in to a poor touch to a poor pass to a poor defensive play to nothing Matt Reis could do" was the play-by-play offered by an unusually terse Jay Heaps after the game.
"It was just one of those plays where it was a bad decision to where the throw-in was made, to where it went, and unfortunately we've been punished all year for our mistakes and that's exactly what happened tonight."
The Revolution head coach reserved his most seething commentary for the combative style of the visitors and for the officiating that allowed it.
"They had 21 fouls; we had 12. They had two yellow cards; we had two yellow cards," complained Heaps. "So I felt like every time we got around the ball there was a foul. It was just a disruptive game all the way around."
Heaps also provided an explanation for why Lee Nguyen, who has been a key figure in the Revolution attack this season, was unable to influence the game.
"Every time he got the ball tonight he was fouled," observed Heaps. "Simple."
"We're one of the most-fouled teams in the league and playing against the team that fouls the most," Heaps continued. "And the referee allowed it. Simple as that. It's a little bizarre. For me it's bizarre that I come in here and both teams have two yellow cards and it was 21 to 12 in fouls. I find it extremely bizarre."
Revolution left back Chris Tierney, who had a solid if unspectacular game, acknowledged the success of the game plan laid out by Sporting KC Head Coach Peter Vermes.
"Their game plan, for sure, was to disrupt the play," admitted Tierney. "I think if you look at fouls, there were a lot. They were clearly trying to slow our play through the midfield and break things up and they did a good job of that. And that's a road tactic and a tactic that teams have used against us all year. We've got to be better at breaking pressure and playing through it."
Vermes was able to execute the game plan despite missing two of the team's most aggressive players.
Midfield workhorse Roger Espinoza, arguably Kansas City's most valuable and disruptive player, has been on Olympic duty for the underdog darling Honduran team, while central defender Aurelien Collin was sidelined with facial fractures sustained in the MLS All-Star game.
Clyde Simms, who was awarded the captain's armband for New England and was left to patrol the defensive end of the midfield on his own, also gave grudging credit to the victors.
"They're a big physical team and that's the way they play every single game. They commit a lot of numbers forward and that's part of their philosophy. They have to foul in certain spots because they have so many guys forward and they're susceptible to the counter. That's the way they play. They recruit big guys - big physical guys - and that's the way they play."
"I think the way we try to play is to keep the ball on the ground and keep it moving," continued Simms, describing the Revolution answer. "We don't have a huge team, especially in the midfield, so that's the way we try to play, and we think we're good at that. Unfortunately, we weren't as good with the ball tonight."
What neither Heaps, Tierney nor Simms was willing to say out loud was that the one person who might have been capable of responding to the physical challenge and regaining control of the midfield had been given an unexpected week off before he plays in his first SuperClasico at the Home Depot Center next Sunday night.

Bostonians really know how to celebrate the arrival of Spring and sunshine! With the Boston Marathon completed, Earth Day celebrations around the city, and the Big Apple Circus in town, might as well join the masses, get outside, and savor this last weekend of April Vacation with the kids. Here are some unique family-friendly activities happening this weekend at a few of the sites listed in Boston Baby: A Field Guide for Urban Parents:
Junior Ranger Day on the Boston Harbor Islands
On Saturday April 24 at 11AM (reservations recommended), the National Park Service, Boston Harbor Island Alliance, and the Mass DCR are offering a reduced rate for families to head out to Georges Island for the day. Don't miss this exciting opportunity for your kids to earn their Junior Ranger badges and learn more about protecting and appreciating our heritage. Plus, families can bring their own picnics and participate in the many activities planned for all ages. (And parents, you can also learn more about the islands in Christopher Klein's Discovering the Boston Harbor Islands, just in time for summer!)
Baby Animals on Shaker Farm at the Hancock Shaker Village
Baby animals!? Need we say more? Take a daytrip to the Hancock Shaker Village in Hancock MA to join in the festivities at the 8th Annual Barnyard Birthday Party. Parents can take in the spectacular sights of new growth in the gardens, while the little ones get to help out and play with Shaker Farm's baby lambs, piglets, calves, and chicks!
International Children's Film Festival at the ICA
If you'd rather stay a little closer to the city, as well as mix indoor and outdoor activities, go down to the Institute of Contemporary Art on Saturday at the Seaport. For fresh air, stroll along the Harborwalk and stop for a picnic with an unbeatable view of the waterfront. Stop by the ICA from 10AM-4PM for the International Children's Film Festival. Families can watch short films made by children, join in on a drawing and animation workshop, create storyboard collages, as well as meet artist and filmmaker Jim Capobianco who will talk about his film, Leonardo.

Northern track equals more snow
If you are wondering why there is more snow than expected farther north, it is because the track of this latest winter weather system came farther north. It looked like this was going to happen, which is the reason the National Weather Service added Indianapolis and communities just to the north to the winter weather advisory this morning. The snow totals are a widespread 2-4 for most of central Indiana. There will be a few places with 5. We are not done with the snow either. There is more in the weekend forecast.
A winter weather advisory remains in effect until 8pm. The steady snow will end early this evening. It will take you a bit longer to get to your Valentine's day dinner, but roads will improve later this evening. It will be cold overnight, with clearing skies lows are forecast in the range of 5-10 degrees.
Saturday will start with sun, but end with more light snow. Snow will fall from about 7pm Saturday through 7am Sunday. Another 1-3 inches of snow will be possible. Sunday afternoon will be dry, with partly cloudy skies and highs in the 20s.
Another weather system arrives on Monday. Right now this looks to be a rain event from Indianapolis south, but snow can't be ruled out north. We will watch this one closely.
Milder air is still on the way for much of next week, with highs in the 40s on Tuesday and Wednesday and 50s on Thursday and Friday. There is another chance for rain on Thursday.

BIG BREAK, a Group 3 winner here a year ago, has had little racing this campaign and, after two runs at Group 1 level, was a bit disappointing when beaten by Sruthan in a Tipperary Group 3 last month. That's still smart form, however, and Bold Thady Quill was behind along with Wannabee Better, who franked the form at Naas subsequently when Mizzava was runner-up and Romantic Stroll behind. Mizzava looks held but should still go well and could provide the main threat. The consistent Boston Rocker is better known as a sprinter and has scored just once in 14 starts and tackles this trip for the first time. Francis Of Assisi has won twice on heavy going and will have found the ground much too quick on his return from a long break at the Curragh.

Here was the question:
"Have you ever had a non-religious experience you would call 'spiritual' when studying Science?"
18 voted YES
7 voted NO
4 voted for the third option, "Yes, and I'd consider it religious too."
Spirituality is a emotionally laden word. To some, it seems inseparable from religion.
First, we have to define spirituality as some of a certain set of feelings, easily lifted from wikipedia:
- The perception that time, fear or self-consciousness have dissolved
- Spiritual awe
- Oneness with the universe
- Ecstatic trance
- Sudden enlightenment
- Altered states of consciousness
The last three seem to me too vague, covering both mild and extreme states of mind. Lots of further semantics would be required for it to be clear.
My aim here is not to discredit those having religious experiences, but rather to point out how the act of studying science can induce spiritual feelings. These feelings are the targeted areas of study by Neurotheologists. The study of Neurotheology, also called Spiritual Neuroscience, attempts to make some sense of these special and common feelings.
The secular also experience feelings of spirituality, often in cases where the perceived border of the self becomes temporarily blurred with the world around us.
This, I think, is why study of science, especially on scales of the extremely small or large, can induce these feelings. The results of the poll seem to back that up.

Situated hundreds of miles from any other settlement, deep within the inhospitable desert of Northern Kenya, Dadaab is a city like no other. Its buildings are made from mud, sticks, or plastic; its entire economy is gray; and its citizens survive on rations and luck. Over the course of four years, Ben Rawlence became a firsthand witness to a strange and desperate limbo-land, getting to know many of those who have come there seeking sanctuary. Among them are Guled, a former child soldier who lives for football; Nisho, who scrapes an existence by pushing a wheelbarrow and dreaming of riches; and schoolgirl Kheyro, whose future hangs upon her education.
In City of Thorns, Rawlence interweaves the stories of nine individuals to show what life is like in the camp and to sketch the wider political forces that keep the refugees trapped there. Rawlence combines intimate storytelling with broad sociopolitical investigative journalism, doing for Dadaab what Katherine Boo's Behind the Beautiful Forevers did for the Mumbai slums. Lucid, vivid, and illuminating, City of Thorns is an urgent human story with deep international repercussions, brought to life through the people who call Dadaab home.
©2016 Ben Rawlence (P)2016 Tantor
"Rawlence has written a book that just might change the world or, at the very least, awaken readers to one criminally forgotten corner of it." (Booklist)
"Compelling but dry"
This book is compelling and heart breaking but has so much information it gets to be almost overwhelming. Can be dry- I think the performers
Voice and just the slush of information made it hard to get through.
Such an important piece of work. Maybe better in print
"Great story"
The author places a real human side to a tragic situation none of take time to think about
"Life changing"
I am not a fan of reading but this book was captivating and well written.
