text: Home Politics Voter-ID Laws Just the Tip of the Iceberg There's more than one way to disenfranchise voters. What about anonymous corporate campaign donors? By: Sherilynn Ifill Posted: July 16 2012 12:16 AM 0 Mario Tama/Getty Images (The Root) -- By now it's well-known that Republican-dominated efforts to impose and enforce voter-ID requirements may constitute the most pernicious and effective means of suppressing the votes of the poor, racial minorities, rural voters and the elderly since the poll tax and the literacy test. Attorney General Eric Holder has demonstrated fierce and unwavering commitment to fighting the imposition of these requirements in states covered by the Voting Rights Act -- a decision that may well underpin the recent contempt-vote absurdity led by a right wing that has been desperate to undermine the attorney general's resolve on the voter-ID issue. Civil rights and activists groups have also marshaled their resources to educate voters in states where ID laws are in force and to challenge efforts to intimidate voters under the guise of enforcing ID laws. Holder and voting-rights activists are right to regard these voter-ID laws as a threat to democracy. It was the Supreme Court that 120 years ago first identified the right to vote as "preservative of all rights." For this reason, the Voting Rights Act has long been regarded even by those on the right as the "crown jewel" of civil rights laws. But interfering with the ability of marginalized citizens to cast a ballot on Election Day is not the only means of disenfranchisement with which we should be concerned. Indeed, our myopic focus on barriers to voting has allowed the proliferation of far more widespread, complex and potentially irreversible disenfranchisement techniques. Among the most threatening to the effective exercise of the franchise is the door opened by the Supreme Court's widely derided Citizens United decision, which advanced the ability of corporations, unions and other groups to contribute large amounts of money to political-campaign ads (including ads for campaigns of elected state court judges). Who's Contributing to a Political Campaign? More disturbing still is the fact that some of the largest campaign-ad contributions from these groups will be made secretly. This means that a voter -- even if unimpeded by voter-ID laws -- will cast his or her ballot wearing the equivalent of a blindfold. The voter will not know whether or to what extent corporate or union interests are behind relentless television or radio ads supporting or denouncing a candidate. It should matter to voters whether one of their congressional or judicial candidates has received this kind of substantial support from the insurance industry or from pharmaceutical corporations. Voters may know that an ad supporting or denouncing a candidate for office in their district has been funded by a corporation calling itself Crossroads GPS, a Karl Rove-created organization that runs ads in support of Republican candidates. But voters also need to know who funds the million-dollar ad buys of Crossroads. Under current law, Crossroads is billed as an "issue advocacy" organization and need not disclose its donors -- this despite its ability to spend millions targeting candidates for political office. This secrecy is not compelled by Citizens United. Although the Supreme Court held in that case that corporations and unions cannot be limited in their political giving, nothing in the decision gives corporations the right to give secretly to campaigns. In fact, Justice Anthony Kennedy talked favorably about the importance of disclosure. To shed more light on the sources of campaign-ad donations, Senate Democrats have proposed the Disclose Act (pdf), legislation that would require disclosure of the identity of groups spending more than $10,000 on campaign ads and donors contributing more than $10,000. This would allow voters to have information about whether and which corporations or unions are supporting candidates for public office. Page 1 of 3 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

Welcome to the Friday edition of "5 Things to Know for Your New Day."
Every weekday morning around 6, we'll hit the top five stories of the day and clue you in on a few other buzzy items.
A Taliban tit-for-tat:
Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl is the only American prisoner of war in Afghanistan - and the U.S. wants him home. But there's a catch. The Taliban want five Guantanamo Bay detainees in return. The question is, do we negotiate with terrorists -- even if it's to bring one of our own home?
"We should never stop trying to get him back, but I don't think anybody wants to see their country sold down the river in a sense just to bring them back."
That's James Carafano with the conservative Heritage Foundation. But not everyone shares his view, certainly not Bowe's parents who've been waiting four long years for him.
If you build it, they will come:
By 'it,' we mean a 700-mile long border fence along the Mexican border. And by 'them,' we mean the Republicans.
The Dems think the concession will get them enough votes in the Senate to push through immigration reform. Because it's going to be a VERY tough sell in the House.
It's the end of the world as we know it:
These business stories can get complicated. So here's a simple rhyme summarizing what happened the last two days.
Bernanke spoke
Markets spooked
Investors frowned
Dow went down down down
It dropped a whopping 353 points yesterday - the worst single day this year. No sector was immune to the selling: banks battered, manufacturers mauled, home builders hosed.
It was a Heat repeat last night. They beat the Spurs 95 to 88 to keep the NBA title in Miami. King James (and his headband crown) led the way with 37 points.
Six women; Zimmerman:
The fate of George Zimmerman rests on the hands of women: five of them white, and one who's black or Hispanic. The much anticipated trial starts Monday.
The big surprise for us is that you can actually have a trial with six jurors.
"In Florida only capital cases get a jury of 12. All other cases get 6 jurors," says legal analyst Sunny Hostin.
Those are your five biggies for the day. Here are a couple of others that are brewing and have the Internet buzzing.
-- Water, water everywhere:
A state of emergency's in effect in Calgary where flooding is so bad, it's swept some homes away. Up to 100,000 may have to evacuate. And it's not going to get any better at least until Saturday.
-- North? West? 'Nuff said:
We don't know for sure if Kanye named his daughter North West. But this is Kanye we're talking about. The dude has a song on his new album where he's mad at croissants ("In a French-a** restaurant, hurry up with my damn croissant"). So yeah, anything's possible. The Internet went into a tizzy trying to one-up each other at the news:
"oh good when kim and kanye's daughter has her own fragrance it'll be called "north, by north west," tweeted TV commentator Andy Levy.
Even our very own Ed Lavandera couldn't resist. He tweeted:
"As punishment for Kim and Kanye, #NorthWest should cry non-stop until she turns 18!"
-- What killed Gandolfini?:
We may find out this morning exactly how James Gandolfini died. Doctors have said it was most probably a heart attack. And today, they're expected to release the autopsy results for the "Sopranos" star.
-- Impressive. Now get in my belly!:
For his son's birthday, a man made an R2-D2 cake that projects a hologram of Princess Leia. I'm sure all the "Star Wars" fans are going "coooool." But the kid is 6. If you listen closely to the video posted on YouTube, you can hear him go, "What is this?" and "I want to see in the camera."
-- Vine gets MySpaced .. or does it?:
Instagram users gloated when the service came out with a video feature:
"Heat (Instagram) Spurs (Vine)," @RealFlyboiQuan tweeted.
Then they complained about slow uploads:
"my first Instagram video has been "processing" for minutes. what gives?" wrote Jenn Van Grove.
We like the folks who kept things in perspective, like Sabrina Jalees:
"When choosing between Vine vs. Instagram Video just remember life is also an option."
There you go. All you need to know to get an early start to your morning. Happy Friday!

Honestly, I don't really notice that many hackers on BF3. Now and then I come across one, and it's usually fresh profiles that are doing it (so it makes it very obvious). But I'd easily say maybe 1 person I run across a month that looks to be hacking (and thats also going off stats not just ingame actions), and thats at max. There is not a ton of people hacking out there, yes they around out there, but it's not that abundant.
I play on metro 24/7 servers on conquest mostly.They're almost always on those servers exclusively it seems from what I have seen. I guess I need to play on new maps.
I find this seriously hard to believe, to say it nicely. Not all the time at best. Again, there are too many factors in the equation, for starters. And reporting on Battlelog maybe won't do anything positive but, as I've said, calling them out on the server most certainly doesn't. Well if this game is rife with hackers to the degree you claim I guess I have just been lucky that I've been able to play almost daily for almost two years while having a good, fun time and maintaining positive stats. LOL. Nate, you're a nice guy and all but sometimes you're really not the sharpest crayon in the box. If you want to play with hackers and COD idiots, Metro is your map. It's practically a different game from what I play.
Weird, thats the one map that it's not even required, sit on a corner with a health box and paddles out, don't even need to shoot your gun and you can be a 600 - 650 spm player if you are good at surviving.
I get accused of hacking all the time when I play. Normally by people with 500+ hours who still suck at the game.
This has only happened to me once on a total BS kill I got where I could feel the lag as soon as we encountered one another. Dude unloaded on me without much effect (though I was also trying to dodge) and I did the same with 51 P90 rounds finally killing him when almost empty. Which was exactly one of my main points originally--people always jump to the hacking conclusion first and foremost.
Late to the conversation, but i feel sad for the community when everyone see's a blatant hacker or botter on their server but dont vote to kick or bann him and the people who cry and whine about it are the people on the receiving end while the other team dont care because hes helping them win the game and thats the the shitty state this community has driven itself into - tools who care more about stats and K/D ratios then keeping the game free from cheaters. Unlike CoD which doesnt give you the tools to kick hackers and botters Battlefield has always had it but people no longer use it. when a votekick/bann is initiated to get rid of a hacker who is exploiting the server rules or glitches in the game and people dont care to vote so do nothing. Them people are as bad as the tools that are using the malicious hacks, It might not affect them directly because they are on the same team as the hacker but they are quick to cry foul if the shoe was on the other foot. Players need to all do their bit to keep the game free from hackers.
This is true and all well and good but the problem is, as I've said from the beginning here, we are not really talking about the blatant ones (seen one time in two years personally btw) and everybody thinks they can always spot a hacker and throws that accusation around at the drop of the hat. If Nate was "calling out" some dude who is 70-1 and killing like the whole team with a single click then I am sure other players would not "turn on him" for it. Others players like me have just learned to ignore "the butthurt guy apparently getting owned" which is what I just assume these days when someone cries hacker (which happens in like 80% of games). And so if/when someone is actually hacking no one is gonna believe you most of the time now anyway. And calling them out in-game is not going to make them go away anyway if in fact they are using more subtle cheats. There have been a few people I suspected but when I look at their profiles their stats look legit and often not far off my own. If not I report (3.5 KDR, 900 SPM etc--not to say some arent that good or good at padding). All I can do.
Of course I always tab out and check their profiles to see if their legit. I also send after battle reports to DICE/EA after flagging the offenders profile. Unfortunately I dont know if they ever get banned as i never have time to follow up. I have very little time to game these days
Yep my son runs a 2.45 K/D and approaching 900 ppm so he gets it all the time and he wouldn't know the first thing about how to hack. Some people are just good while others in their frustration at getting owned scream hack. Heck I'd have to call everybody hacks as they are all better then me. Well 80% any wayAs far as getting worked up about it I won't. It is a game and I do it for fun. If the idiots need to hack and feel superior by cheating then they have a lot of issues they need to work through and I'm not gonna let it fuck up my night.
No he is on PC now. With less then 100 hrs he passed me with 315 hrs and is now 4 levels ahead of me. The son a bitch http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/soldier/CptSizzlepants/stats/330250904/ http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/soldier/1eyedIdaho/stats/226296747/

I think the powers that be are waiting for Idaho's post count to reach 1000 before they doom this thread to the clubhouse section - that's where the monkeys will take over.
I want to know how he gets such a ppm.. I mean I bust my hump run to flags, know where choke points/action is and still manage 450...Granted, I'm not good (K/D 1:1), but still... to double my point output is tremendous I feel!

I can't believe it
I am flabbergasted that OMAFRA/ Agricorp is asking the groups how they define "member" and "membership". What is this a grade 11 English project!? After using the same Act for several years, now they want to nitpick.
Pretty sure there are lots of issues which need attention:
Growing Forward 2
Rainfall insurance - revamp? Why is only 10% of farmers using it?
OSPCA - revamp. Yes I am aware that technically OMAFRA is not in charge of this, but the could/should play a role.
Feed/food Prices.
Clean water issues - including run off from greenhouses.
Endangered species / species at risk - legislation going too far.
And lots of other issues.
Get this straightened out ASAP, everybody, and deal with the real issues at hand.

Time To Take The Training Wheels Off
Gov Farm Programs and the Farm Tax Rebate should not be tied to a membership . Premise ID is tied to programs but not a GFO membership . It has been almost 20 years of stable funding . It's time to let them go on their own . Oh but then the Liberals would not have been able to push through the Green Belt and the Green Enenrgy Act . OFA played a key role in representing farmers or was it McFlinty and Fiberals on both of those .

makes no sense
The minister's statement makes no sense.
The deadline to register with a GFO is March 31 of each year. That is a long standing rule. There are farmers that did not register by the deadline. Those farmers should not get an exemption. Why should they get benefits when they chose not to meet the deadline?
If there is a new farmer that started a farm business of bought a farm after March 31, I can understand the exemption.
The minister is not consistent in his treatment towards farmers.
an online visitor replied on Permalink
Dead Line
I totally agree there should be no special arrangement made for those who where late filing for their FBR number unless they were a new farmer or farm business.
If people had to sit out a year and pay the higher tax level they would soon make sure they didn't forgot to pay on time.
However if it was ever challenged in the courts i don't think the government would win, it isn't right to mandate farmers to join any organization even if their is an option to get their money back.
Religious exemptions shouldn't be the only way out, if you can support any of the GFO's
You wait and see, i will betcha the government has some thing up its sleeve,
and before long it wont be mandatory to join a GFO, i believe this because of all the efforts they are going through to figure out what and who constitutes a member and membership.
We have the right to associate and their for have the right to not associate.
If some would challenge this in the Supreme Court, i would bet a $100.00 round bale of hay, the government would lose.
The PFO this year will work to lobby the government to add a new box where farmers can request their money back, with out it having to go to a GFO, in the first place.

makes sense
That makes sense. But I think the gov. has found a way to pave the way whereby only one GFO will survive. There has been calls to only have one farm org. and I can see the results of the tribunal elimating all GFOs except one.
Gov. gets the one farm group by default not by farmers vote.

There are lots of reasons why
There are lots of reasons why farmers may be still applying for a registration number. I also have farmers whom I represent that paid their money on time, but Agricorp made a mistake processing there application and it was not corrected by May 22 or what ever day they stopped processing applications and they won't correct the mistake. So a member who paid on time is still not registered and doesn't know when they will be. Such a screwup. Why could this just applied to next years registrations if they wanted to make changes and just leave this year alone? And why are they waiting so long after the hearing to decide if they will reacredit? Are they just trying to waste time and money?

I registered and paid on time with lots of time to spare. If this incompetent minister is going to give a exemption to farmers that failed to register on time then all farmers should have the same courtesy.
Send all the money back to all the farmers. That way all farmers will be treated equally.

We've had 3, in recent memory, from Huron County

Why the heck is the ones don,t need insurance to get a cheque for your duck or chicken ,etc. and the ones that has crop damage doesn,t get a cheque without crop insurance?
Talk about a two edge sword and now we are going to get people writing in saying buy insurance for your crops or have another type of program.
There is no different from losing to an animal or mother nature, have an animal killed have insurance or have a program to cover your bad luck.

I believe decades ago Canada
I believe decades ago Canada and Prvinces seen fit to bring legislation in to have farmers buy subsidized crop insurance, I also believe there was not enough demand to settup or how to setup aplan that would work for livestock, therefore we have when needed addhock aid for livestck farmers when needed
Seem to remember livestock had cheap supplies of grain. The big question we should ask is what is the floating price for corn and beans that crop insurance will have to pay and do they have enough money?

Beltran, who turns 37 in April, is coming off yet another solid season for the Cardinals. He played in 145 games and put up a .296/.339/.491 line, with 24 home runs and 84 RBI in 554 at-bats.
Napoli, 32, remained relatively healthy last year and played 139 games for Boston after signing a one-year deal in the offseason. He owned a .259/.360/.482 slash line with 23 home runs and 92 RBI over 498 at-bats. He drew interest from the Rockies, Mariners, Marlins and Rangers before returning to Boston.
McLouth, 32, batted .258/.329/.399 with 12 home runs and 36 RBI over 531 at-bats last season with the Orioles.
Arencibia, who will be 28 in January, hit .194 for the Blue Jays in 2013, but also launched 21 home runs -- his second season in the last three with at least 20 homers. Arencibia was non-tendered by Toronto on Dec. 2.
Arencibia is expected to compete for playing time with Geovany Soto, who, according to GM Jon Daniels, will be the team's starter.
Over four seasons in the majors, Arencibia has a .212 batting average and 64 home runs.
Feldman, who will be 31 in February, went 12-12 with a 3.86 ERA (his best ERA since an eight-game relief stint in 2005, his debut season) and 1.18 WHIP over 181 2/3 innings in 2013. He had 15 starts with the Cubs before a July deal sent him to the Orioles for his final 15.
Last season marked the first time Feldman had started all of his appearances in his career. Over 909 1/3 innings, Feldman has a 4.62 ERA and 1.37 WHIP.
Kuroda finished 2013 with a 3.31 ERA and 1.16 WHIP -- numbers nearly identical to those he posted in 2012 (3.32 ERA and 1.17 WHIP), his first season with the Yankees.
This will be the seventh season in Major League baseball for Kuroda, who pitched 11 seasons in Japan before joining the Dodgers in 2008. He will be 39 in February, and has four consecutive seasons of at least 196 innings pitched.
The two sides have been negotiating for a few weeks, and it was said the Mets did not want to exceed a three-year deal for Granderson. In an injury-shortened season, Granderson hit .229/.317/.407 with the

I'd say add 10 to that as a worst-case scenario. I'm not saying they'll win the West - frankly, anything above the cellar would be a surprise - but to believe what I'm reading in this thread Felix will again win in the low teens and the team will never win any other game. I mean, come on. That's just ridiculous.
Majority of the Roster filled with older players that wouldn't be on MLB Rosters if not for the M's, Fringe Talent that will teater between the Majors and AAA, Brittle players that keep getting hurt, and Basket Cases like Milton Bradley (who should be locked up in a mental hospital or at the very least in counciling every day of the week for his issues). And there is the role player that gets over paid and does very little to justify the contact (Figgins would be exhibit A).
Felix will win around 20 games...
The rest of the staff might not get to the low teens what with injuries and such.
On the plus side, 38 more wins until my crow soufflet...
...assuming they win that much.

A traffic accident at the intersection of Highway 98 and Sunrise Drive sent two people to the hospital with serious injuries and blocked traffic in both directions last Thursday afternoon.
While local fire departments and rescue crews worked to access the injured, Lifelight was called out to the scene of the accident, which happened at 4:45 p.m.
According to a Florida Highway Patrol report, the wreck involved a total of six vehicles, caused when a Dodge Ram truck driven by Casey Norris, 29, of Holt, failed to stop in time to avoid the line of cars stopped at the traffic light. Norris' truck slammed into a Toyota Camry driven by Peter C. Mihm, 42, of Fort Walton Beach. Mihm and his passenger, Traci S. Griswold, 26, of Crestview, sustained serious injuries.
Drivers and passengers in the other four cars sustained only minor injuries.
Also involved in the chain-reaction wreck was a Dodge Caliber driven by Brendan J. Greene, 23, of Navarre; a Chrysler Sebring driven by Calista A. Wallick, 27, of Navarre, and a Chevy Silverado driven by Daryl P. Thibodaux, 40, of Cut Off, La. The sixth vehicle in the chain reaction was a Ford Fusion containing driver James R. Watson, 70, of Navarre, and passenger, Theresa C. Watson, 68, of Navarre.

Quitclaim deed
A document by which a grantor conveys his or her present interest, if any, in a given parcel of real property to a grantee without representing, covenanting, or warranting that the title is good.
Illustrative caselaw
See, e.g. Spreckels v. Brown, 212 U.S. 208, 210 (1909).
See also
Compare to warranty deed
Definition from Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary
A deed that transfers whatever ownership interest the transferor has in a particular property. The deed does not guarantee anything about what is being transferred, however. For example, a divorcing husband might quitclaim his interest in certain real estate to his former wife, officially giving up any legal interest he may have in the property. Quitclaim deeds are used primarily among family members or others familiar with the property and each other. Compare: grant deed, warranty deed

Mr. Yancey's bill [S. 74--see pages 208, 212, and 216 of these reports] to regulate the practice of medicine, being read the third time--
Mr. YANCEY, referring to the discussion already had on this bill, considered it unnecessary to say more than that the people of the State are desiring the passage of the bill.
Mr. HENRY objected to the way Section 6 was drafted. Since the action on that section he had received a communication from the Secretary of a County Medical Association, in which the bill is characterized as a fraud, and having taken some pains to inquire, was satisfied that three-fourths of the physicians of the State were objecting to its passage. He also referred to a letter stating that every physician in the County from which the letter comes had contracts with druggists to divide receipts on their prescriptions.
Mr. SPANN, in good faith, offered an amendment to the bill the other day which would have covered a large class of quacks, but his motives were impugned, nad it was charged the amendment was offered in order to kill the bill. In almost every town every few days quacks appear, heralded by flaming bills and advertisements, and when an amendment was offered requiring them to go before a Board of Examiners to get a permit to practice their specialties, the friends of the bill voted it down. They should be included among those required to apply for a certificate of qualification.
Mr. SHAFFER--Admitting this is not such a bill as the medical profession desire, nor as perfect a bill as the people want, yet he hoped it would be passed in its present shape, and if it should be found not to work well, in two years from now it can be amended.
The bill passed by yeas, 29; nays, 17--as follows:
Yeas--Messrs. Bell, Benz, Bischowski, Brown, Bundy, Compton, Foster, Hefron, Howard, Hutchinson, Kramer, Langdon, Lockridge, Macartney, Menzies, Owen, Rahm, Ristine, Sayre, Shaffer, Traylor, Urmston, Van Vorhis, Viehe, White, Wilson, Woollen and Yancey--29.
Nays--Messrs. Briscoe, Chapman, Coffey, Comstock, Davidson, Davis, Garrigus, Grubbs, Henry, Hostetter, Keiser, Leeper, Marvin, Poindexter, Smith, Spann and Voyles--17.
Pending the roll call on the passage of the bill--
Mr. CHAPMAN said he did not believe in the theory of the bill, and saw several very imperfect provisions in it. He voted "no."
Mr. DAVIS, when his name was called, said: If the doctors were agreed on it, I should vote to support this bill; but the old saying is true that doctors do not always agree. As I do not believe a man should be compelled by law to employ a certain class of physicians, I vote "no."
Mr. FOSTER, simply because this bill does not come up to his expectations, should not oppose it. He did not think the doctors had pushed this thing through the Senate, but believe the people desired it.
Mr. GARRIGUS, for an opposite reason, believing there is no call for such legislation as this, would vote against it. It is a pernicious kind of legislation; it is a class legislation. If we pass such a law for doctors, we should pass one for dentists, and for preachers, and for lawyers, for farmers and for every particular class or profession. If the principle is right, we ought to establish a protectorate over every particular class of business. Having opposed sucha measure two years ago, since which time never having heard man, woman or child speak in favor of it, but having heard many speak against it, he voted "no."
Mr. KEISER, when his name was called, said; I would like to vote for this bill if I could conscientiously do so. While I do not believe there is any great demand, or a hue or cry from the people at large for a medical bill, I have no doubt that one well guarded and properly digested would be of benefit to the people of the State. This bill has some objectionable features, which forces me to vote against it, and as far as I can learn from the practicing physicians in my County and District, they are not in favor of this bill. Therefore I vote "no."
Mr. TRAYLOR, when his name was called, said he did not look at this bill as being in favor of doctors, but rather a lick at them; and, believng it is intended for the public good voted "aye."
Mr. VOYLES, when his name was called, said: I desire to explain my vote. I did not antagonize the measure by a speech. I now desire to say that if the provisions of the bill would conduce mainly to bringing the medical standard up to the level occupied by the author of this bill--the Senator from Hancock--I would support the bill, if for no other reason, on account of personal compliment to the honorable Senator, but as I have no great or exalted opinion of the proposition, and being opposed to carrying sumptuary laws too far into the business affairs of our State, I shall not vote for the bill. Having thus given the author of the bill a quantum sufficit of'taffy," I proceed to vote "no."
So the bill passed.

Our team redesigns the legacy software and there are a lot of design meetings going on. Many of them are not very effective and lack good analysis of the proposed design. Is there any formal way to approach this kind of discussions to make them more effective? I heard about SWOT for example, but afaik it is used more for business projects.
Might I suggest Martin Fowler's agile, if heretic, StranglerApplication, a method that reminds one of BranchByAbstraction. What you probably want is to define a set of interfaces that speak your business story, all the while ignoring the existing code, plug them in with a minimum rewrite, and then slowly reimplementing more and more of these interfaces. The formality in the process ends there, but I hope its practicality is obvious. | |||||
I assume you want the redesigned system to behave exactly as the legacy system, at least in the beginning. This means to need to capture the concepts and behavior of the legacy system first as precisely as possible. I recommend to create architecture models and use them for discussion. Everybody should have a good understanding of the modeling language you use. Check out the methology we use at SAP, which is described in this 2 part blog post: http://scn.sap.com/people/bernhard.groene/blog/2008/01/09/how-to-communicate-architecture-technical-architecture-modeling-at-sap-part-1 Don't just create the block diagrams. I recommend to start with entity relationship diagrams and also add definitions of the entities. Then do the block diagrams - don't forget to describe protocol boundaries, and add a short description what each block does. Last thing should be one of the dynamic diagrams. Use the other diagram types if you need them. What you will experience are lively discussions e.g. if there is a 1:* or a 1:0..* relationship between two entities. Or you will learn a lot about dependencies between components if you try to figure out where you could establish a system boundary, and so on. If you use vague powerpoint drawings of your legacy system architecture, everybody will have his own interpretation and understanding, so you won't make much progress, and your new system will probably not reflect the legacy system. | |||
Mihai Danila's suggestion of applying Fowler's StranglerApplication in replacing your Legacy app is in my opinion the best way of replacing any legacy system. I blogged a couple of years ago about never rewrite a system. Basically like Strangler Application it is about inserting transparent facades in front of interfaces to the existing systems and incrementally grow this redirection to the new system until the old system is no longer in use. And never re-writing the whole system in one go as that will take way too long with no business benefit at least for a long while. You need to deliver business value along with replacing the existing legacy system. As for the actual estimations, you can apply many time consuming in-detail estimations using various techniques. However they will all just be as wrong as a finger in the air estimate, just now wrong in detail as Dan North would say. Create a few prioritised epics of what features are needed initially, break them up further if needed but not much more. Then just throw some order of magnitude estimates of various parts of the job (t-shirt sizes, 1-10-100 story points or days or whatever). Applying StranglerApplication and then deliver some tracer bullet stories to get a much better idea of the actual complexity and viability of the project. | |||

"I'm really happy with the way our cards turned out. Great quality, vibrant, yet simple. I also received my cards in the mail quickly. Got lots of compliments from friends and family. You can't go wrong with tiny prints."
"This is a very nice card with excellent quality of the card and envelope. Excellent customer service as well. I won't buy anywhere, but tiny prints. Highly recommended to anyone."
"The cards turned out great and everyone loves them. I was really impressed with the paper quality, especially compared to the cards that I received that were made by other companies. I did have a bit of an issue with the shipping being delayed, but customer service did a great job of resolving it."
"I did the Joy, Peace, Love in Red ink and the rest in white and our card turned out exactly as I wanted it to. Great quality printing and paper. Nice and classy design. Thanks!"

About This Show
- Summary
How I Met Your Mother is a comedy about Ted (Josh Radnor) and how he fell in love. It all starts when Ted's best friend, Marshall (Jason Segel), drops the bombshell that he's going to propose to his long-time girlfriend, Lily (Alyson Hannigan), a kindergarten teacher. At that moment, Ted realizes that he had better get a move on if he too hopes to find true love. Helping him in his quest is Barney (Neil Patrick Harris), a friend with endless, sometimes outrageous opinions, a penchant for suits and a foolproof way to meet women. When Ted meets Robin (Cobie Smulders), he's sure it's love at first sight, but destiny may have something else in store. The series is narrated through flashbacks from the future.

This is a stupid question and I know the answer but if you have such a good way to do formatting in questions/answers why it's not used for "about me" section on profile page? Looks easy to make and adds just a little bit more consistency.
The "about me" field is now Markdown-enabled! (I agree we should have done this a year ago, but.. hey.. better late than never, right? right?) | |||
It has limited HTML capabilities such as bolding, italics, line breaks, h1 through h3's, and lists. I know there are more allowed tags but I can't remember where to find them. Links and images are also allowed. You can view my profile as an example of the limited html capabilities (I have bolding, line breaks, lists, images, and links all throughout). | |||||||||||||||||
It's basically the same HTML that is allowed in questions without the markdown parsing. Since there is not markdown editor attached to it. | |||||

If you ask me, awarding prizes for works of art--whether they be books, movies or single malt scotches--is pretty silly, if not quixotic. I mean, how can we pretend to objectively declare something as complex as a novel or nuanced as a great pop song to be "better" than another when most of us have our hands full deciding whether M&Ms or Reese's Pieces would go better with our Double Dutch Chocolate frozen yogurt?
The Tayshas Reading List highlights great recreational reading titles for teens in grades 9-12. Beginning last year, the Tayshas Top Ten recognizes titles that received unanimous votes from committee members. Check out the Tayshas Top Ten below or the entire 2014 Tayshas Reading List. What books are you glad made the list?
Each year the Texas Library Association announces a new Lone Star List. With great reads for students in grades 6 through 8, the Lone Star List is meant to encourage us all to read just for the fun of it! What are your favorite Lone Stars?
You voted and the results are in! The 2013 Teens' Top Ten list was just announced. Did your favorites make the list?
Are you a fan of R.J. Palacio's Wonder? Maybe you've heard great things about it and are waiting for a copy.
A few weeks ago, School Library Journal posted Three Graphic Novels Take Cybils Awards. Cybils, Children's and Young Adult Bloggers' Literacy Awards, is an annual event that highlights Children's and Young Adult books that "combine the highest literary merit and kid appeal." Visit their website for more information about these awards, past winners, and more!
Critics get a bad rap. It's the accepted wisdom that 'if you can't do, then teach, and if you can't do or teach, then tell people who can what they're doing wrong,' which is unfair to teachers (who--in my not particularly humble opinion--get a worse and infinitely more undeserved rap) and critics, both.
I would argue that besides acting as a convenient whipping boy for artists who are seldom the best judges of their own work, critics provide the valuable service of drowning out a lot of the inane palaver in the cultural conversation. Do they miss some very worthy work? Yes, oodles of it. Do they misjudge great works? Yes, certainly. Do they have personal biases and blind spots? Yep. Do they fall prey to fads and fashions that will ultimately be looked on only with derision and regret? Yes, just like you and me--how do you feel about those pea green jeggings you bought in a fit of hubris and reckless disregard for your credit score last month?
The winners of the John Newbery and Randolph Caldecott Medals were announced this morning in Seattle, giving us a total of ten more books to add to our "to read" list!
The Newbery Medal is "awarded annually by the Association for Library Service to Children, a division of the American Library Association, to the author of the most distinguished contribution to American literature for children."
2013 Winner
The end of the year and beginning of the next bring numerous "best of" lists. School Library Journal has several Best of 2012 lists, but I thought I might share with you what we have on our shelves that reviewers found to be the best adult books for teen readers. Whether you already read mostly adult fiction or non-fiction, you read back and forth between teen and adult reads, or you've been thinking about branching out into the adult collection, you might consider checking out one of these. What would be on your "best of" list?
Each year YALSA (the Young Adult Library Services Association…say that 10 times fast!) releases the Best Fiction for Young Adults list (BFYA…which used to be the Best Books for Young Adults…BBYA). This very lengthy list recognizes books that are both appealing to readers and of good quality. So if you're looking for a great read, consider checking out the list. Or take a look below for the Top Ten Best of the Best!

It's official: 'Call Me Maybe' parodies are dead
Alan Pearcy
Posted: August 23, 2012
Every weekday, PR Daily associate editor Alan Pearcy highlights the day's most compelling stories and amusing marginalia on the Web in this, #TheDailySpin.
What do the
Pittsburgh Steelers
Chicago Young Republicans
, and a
World War II battleship
all have in common? Aside from their refusal to ever throw in the towel, they've all spoofed Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe"—leading to the prolonged death of parodies of the song. While the NFL franchise uses the song to showcase the team's arrival at training camp, the GOP organization hopes that the tune will help its cause come November. As for the sea vessel, it joins the worn-out list of parodies in hopes of bolstering tourism for the USS North Carolina. Unlike the ship, however, these tired takeoffs are officially sunk.
Meanwhile, the United States Postal Service
sunk $1.2 million into the production of 1 billion "Simpsons" stamps
, vastly overestimating their appeal, of which only 318 million were sold.
That's nowhere near the more than half a billion dollars that the Santa Clara Valley Water District might be out after its ballot summary to place a $548 million parcel tax before voters
exceeded the word-limit
—by two words.
We might also be in danger of having exceeded our limit of GIFs on the Internet. Although as
The Atlantic Wire
reports, it's the "
" we've seen in these computerized animations that has kept their use from growing too stale.
If stale is how someone might describe your cologne or perfume, it wouldn't surprise me to hear your office wants to go fragrance-free. But is it legal, even on behalf of your colleagues with allergies? A
ruling in Illinois
could make that call, as well as decide if telecommuting is considered an accommodation for a disability.
What people do when they telecommute (besides work)
From fragrance-free to freelancers,
here is an infographic of the most-popular apps
for any nomadic operatives looking to maintain a better work-life balance.
With so many smartphone apps to choose from, it's no wonder
mobile video has become a cornerstone to marketing success
, with Dr Pepper, Visa, and Lay's having already incorporated it into their respective campaigns.
But not everyone is aboard with the escalating mobile trend. In fact, some are appalled by our obsession with our phones. Perhaps that's what caused Eva Restaurant in Los Angeles to
offer diners a 5 percent discount
on their bills if they ditch their digital devices before being seated.
Still, like any Apple product hoarder, I'd find it difficult to part from my current iPhone until, perhaps, the launch of the highly anticipated 5 rolls out. For a sneak peak, check out
this "leaked official iPhone 5" video
, courtesy of Adam Sacks.
Someone else leaked to
The Wall Street Journal
that a pair of Nike's new LeBron James sneakers would cost $315. However, a spokesman for the brand
called the reports "inaccurate,"
adding that the "Lebron X will be launched in the fall at a suggested retail price of $180."
Inaccuracy is what some of you coffee drinkers might be going for, or so Starbucks Russia would like to think. With the help of agency BBDO Moscow, the chain handed out
postcards that could be converted into Starbucks coffee sleeves
—in rival independent coffee shops, no less. The idea: Every coffee should be a Starbucks, even when it's not.
Newspaper delivers headlines to your coffee sleeve
Sports teams, like coffee, aren't equal. At least that was the belief at an Oklahoma City kindergarten classroom where a pupil was forced to turn his University of Michigan t-shirt inside-out because it
violated a city ban
on apparel that's not supportive of the state's college teams.
And despites some cities' attempts to ban foods trucks, the effort hasn't done much to hurt the trend. As for me, I don't always frequent food trucks, but when I do, it's a
Dos Equis Mobile Academy
, a fleet of seven nationwide.
Is there something you think we should include in our next edition of #TheDailySpin? Tweet me
with your suggestions. Thanks in advance.

I grew up listening to the music my parents listened to. My mom gave me some of her "Golden Oldies" cassette tapes, and I could sit in my room for hours harmonizing with The Ronettes, and staring at Del Shannon, who I thought was a total stud in his tiny black and white photo on the glossy fold-out insert. I listened to Willie Nelson because my Dad admired him so much, and I wanted to understand what was so great about him too. My first concert wasn't a huge life changer; I saw Inner Circle at a local Jambalaya festival in Central Florida. Their biggest hit was "Bad Boys," the theme song to COPS. If anything, that concert should have traumatized me. But, at the time I had no comprehension of any crassness. I just remember the guitarist making eye contact with me and smiling, and feeling excitement over having a brief connection with someone who was making me dance.
It's the same thing with listening to music with words in another language. It's not necessary to understand words or literal meanings. It's the way the melodies and rhythms evoke feeling. It's like that saying about art, how you may not be able to explain it, but you know it when you see it. I can't always describe music (although obviously, I sure as hell try to), but I know what I like when I feel it, and I think those who can evoke that feeling deserve to be acknowledged for it. That's what I want to describe. That's what I want to share.
