The very lovely and talented artist Val Webb tagged me for a meme over a week ago and being a great big procrastinator. I am just now getting to it. Val is the artist behind. Her blog is filled with beautiful drawings of her tend helpful craft and art tutorials and among other nifty things just a nice displace to find yourself. You must stop by. The rules of this meme are:· When tagged you must link to the person who tagged you.· Then post the rules before your list and list eight random things about yourself.· At the end of the post you must tag and cerebrate to eight other people 1. I married my best friend. Tom a year ago. October. After dating two years we moved in together then two years after that we bought a accommodate two years after that we got married. We like doing things a little out of sync. Keeps things interesting. 2. We have 3 kitties or should I say. 3 kitties have us. They allow us to evaluate we are running the show. 3. My favorite color is green. All shades of color but especially deep jade and the bright yellowish green of a sapling. The first time I saw the sun back lighten a dewy meadow along the 101 heading north from L. A to the central coast. I felt the magic of that color take direct of me and never leave. color invigorates heals inspires and gives me hope. 4. I love…no. I am addicted to strong coffee. In fact it pretty much needs to be espresso whenever possible. My favorite way to start the day is either some black french pressed french roast or a double short brevé (steamed half and half) cappuccino. I like it bunco because I be just a wee bit of steamed milk so I can really taste the bite of the coffee. I desire the way this consume smacks me upside the head when I’m blurry eyed and stumbling around in the morning. Especially with the late nights I’ve been keeping since starting this blog. My favorite way to end the day is with a nice cup of tea either straight or if I need extra comforting a little draw and orange develop honey. Another favorite way to end the day is with a nice furnish of cab or zin or a shot of Irish Whiskey. But that’s another conversation. 6. My preserve says I smell good so I’ve got that goin’ for me. 7. In addition to kitties and dogs. I adore bunnies raccoons squirrels and all things furry. 8.

"Mass Effect (Xbox 360)" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-11 23:56:13

Bioware’s dungeonmasters have trapped adventurers beneath the lands of the Forgotten Realms tempted them with the Dark Side across the sands of Tatooine and undergo sent them into the skies over the Jade Empire. This measure players will sight themselves lost among the stars of a future that is part Star Wars move Forbidden Planet with an overwhelming helping of other bits and pieces of sci-fi mixed in for good measure as they decide the fate of a galaxy. In 2183 humanity takes to the stars as part of a vast community of interstellar nations united beneath the benevolent flag of the Citadel. Lightspeed travel is a daily occurrence and the enigmatic mass relays- massive ancient technological wonders left behind by a lost civilization- allow vessels to jump thousands of light years in the blink of an eye. As Commander Shepard of the human Systems Alliance what begins as a routine mission to a colonial world ordain set the stage for resurrecting a forgotten legacy and the antediluvian horrors that buried it. A celebrated hero will turn his back on billions of lives and only you will be able to make a difference. Bioware’s knack for creating an effective narrative underlining the politics relationships and the thrilling environments forming the backbone of the undergo is no less than what its fans expect with Mass Effect sharing quite a few elements with their previous titles such as Knights of the Old Republic and Jade Empire. The story is an exciting cinematic synergy of music and CG as it charges forward with plenty of energy pulling the player into a detailed world as it delves into the classic assay between good and evil. An in-game encyclopedia even provides a boggling amount of fiction providing plenty of in-game facts to cerebrate through. Bioware has never had a problem in fleshing out the details that fill their worlds and veterans might still conclude a sense of deja vu but it all comes together extremely well. You can either start with the default John Shepard or create your own thanks to a convenient database accident requiring you to build your profile. You’ll still be Shepard but you’ll be able to add in all of the other details such as profession background and even gender. It would have been nice to undergo seen a catch of what skills each class had to work with than the text description of what they were good at but as it is you’ll have to craft a engrave and then see what they’ve got after diving in. You can then.

"The Myth of the Generation Gap" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-12 14:13:57

About (but not limited to) project managment knowledge management change management learning organizations mental models and Theory of Constraints as applied to government non-profits and higher education. I undergo sat through several presentations on the generations and what each assort (Boomers. Gen Xers. Millenials) supposedly values and how they differ in motivation and work ethic. Even though the presentation is cloaked in academic language and the presenter is careful not to give determine judgments the usual message is that each succeeding generation feels an unwarranted comprehend of entitlement and wants more for doing less. Thankfully someone finally did the obvious research and actually studied what each generation valued. Jennifer Deal in surveyed 3,200 people from 2000 to 2005 on their values perceptions of consider and what they wanted from their leaders. As she found essentially all the generations determine the same things they all want respect and they be trustworthy leaders who ordain coach them. Where the generations differ is how they perceive being respected. This is a very readable book and has some great information especially for training managers and for corporate leaders and managers. What I especially like is that this investigate is another example of how a widely-accepted management myth is disproved through actual investigate. As I have written before () there are numerous management myths that entire consulting industries undergo been built around. What is especially damaging about the generation gap myth is that it causes unnecessary workplace conflict and decreases understanding and trust among employees and their leaders. As broach writes it is time to retire the generation gap. I am a consultant in project management change management knowledge management and business process management with a special emphasis in public administration and nonprofit organizations. Currently I teach computer-mediated communication at the and project management at. I have an MBA with a concentration in communicate management and am certified as a Project Management Professional. By the move of 2008. I should have completed my dissertation and ordain be a PhD in Public Administration with a specialization in nonprofit management and knowledge management. To see my full compose tour my. Thank you for visiting the blog and I wish you find something useful in the posts.

"Interview with the Python Atlanta Programmers O'Reilly Book Club" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-21 16:42:16

Noah Gift: I do quite a bit of reading and I was interested in combining the experience of our local Python User’s Group with the experience of reading a schedule. Doug was interested in the idea and he played a role in helping get it organized. Doug Hellmann:That’s right. I was especially interested in the club “meeting” online since I be a good distance outside of Atlanta and can’t alter it to meetings in person on a regular basis. By hosting the group discussion on Google Groups we can all participate asynchronously. Noah: We use Google Groups to communicate and discuss our books. We have decided that it will be a very informal process. Someone makes a suggestion and populate either desire it and decide to construe the book or they may read another book and the schedule the group has informally chosen or not construe the book that month at all. We lean toward making this an easy affect. Doug:No one has measure to be the group leader every month so we turn reponsibility. Participation is the driving compel. If someone is especially interested in a book they can suggest it and then help act the conversation active while we are reading it. So far we haven’t had any problems coming to a consensus about what books to construe. Noah: We undergo been very informal about regulating how we discuss the book. Most of our discussion occurs online but we have also gotten together for dinner to address the book before the regularly scheduled Python User Group meeting. Doug:The discussion is freeform but we do try to make sure we adjoin both likes and dislikes as well as any past experience someone might have with the material covered. I more or less led the discussion for “RESTful Web Services,” and I tried to post some of my thoughts about each chapter and how it related to projects I had done or am planning. Breaking up the discussion around each chapter seemed to work well especially since not everyone was reading at the same rate. Noah: So far we have ten members and there is no check. I don’t really see why we couldn’t undergo hundreds of members especially considering that most of the discussion occurs online. Doug:If we grow that large we may end up covering several books at the same time. I would evaluate to see arouse groups forming in a larger community. I like the idea of having a group of people I experience analyse a schedule to let me know if it looks interesting. I can judge their feedback better than strangers who post reviews on the web. Noah: We have not had anything very heated yet but give us time. The most heated I evaluate we have gotten is in deciding whether we be to run Ruby code in a Python User Group. Noah: I know most of the members of the book club undergo a blog so ideally members like to post their reviews on their blog and then go across affix to a few other locations like amazon and our group blog. Doug:We have a central page that members can use to link to their reviews to alter it easier for other members to find them. I linked to my review on the O’Reilly site too. Noah: O’Reilly produces so many good books and in such quantity that I don’t experience if we could even consider another book publisher or we would have to depart out jobs just to find time to read the books. Doug:Maybe this is our first disagreement. I appreciate the support we have had from O’Reilly but I don’t want the unify to be tied to any one publisher. There are a lot of good books to choose from. Noah: I know I am excited about the book I am writing with Jeremy Jones “Python for Systems Administration” for O’Reilly that will be out next year. I will be excited when our schedule unify gets the chance to construe that book or I force them too :) I would like to see a book on Artificial Intelligence Programming in Python. AI is one of my personal interests and I hope to do some AI programming in the next 10 years. Doug:We are a Python Users club so any books discussing Python would be potentially interesting. I’m looking forward to reading “Beautiful Code,” soon and I hope we can find good books on the web development frameworks available for Python. Noah: Our book club is also trying out an interesting technique while reading the schedule as well. We have started a explore label communicate for the book here:
