description nil → The Power of NLP begins by changing your mental attitude to feel more positive and more assured about yourself. The idea that more expensive gasoline is somehow better for cars is a myth. Some cars are made with high-performance engines that run best with premium gasoline. The majority, however, are not, and putting more expensive gas into their tanks isn't only a waste of money, it can actually prevent their engines from working as efficiently as they should. Cars are made to run with a certain type of gasoline. Changing their gas, even if that change seems to be for the better, is never helpful. http://blog.goo.ne.jp/mckburkas http://blog.goo.ne.jp/mckburkas/e/e718501a3bbf8f7561c25efc1e9b85d5 http://badcreditcard.jugem.jp/?eid=1 <a href="http://blog.goo.ne.jp/mckburkas">williams syndrome </a> <a href="http://badcreditcard.jugem.jp">debtline </a> <a href="http://badcreditcard.jugem.jp/?eid=1">corned beef and cabbage </a> <a href="http://blog.goo.ne.jp/mckburkas/e/e718501a3bbf8f7561c25efc1e9b85d5">debt collection laws </a> <a href="http://badcreditcard.jugem.jp/?eid=1">credit cards for unemployed </a>

update Calagator::Event 1250462137 AgilePDX: Beaverton/Bangalore: A Tale of One Scrum Team Roll back

description Will we nil we, offshore development and distributed teams are here to stay (see CIO Journal 2/27/12 “Offshore Outsourcing Can Boost Agility).” Some people contend that it can’t be done effectively. Come hear a case study of how one distributed Scrum team (Beaverton/Bangalore) learned to work together, rapidly improve velocity in a few sprints, and deliver the expected product on schedule. Jean Richardson and Rob Mills will discuss what it took to make it happen, the ups, the downs, and the lessons learned. Robert Mills currently is the VP of IT at Rivermark Community Credit Union and was previously the Director of Engineering for CoreLogic, Consumer Services. Rob has led multiple organizations during their transition from waterfall or iterative processes to using Scrum. His organizations have been both global and local as well as both in Software Engineering and Information Technology. Jean Richardson is experienced in Scrum and leadership coaching, adaptive and predictive project management, writing, training, public speaking, and requirements and business analysis. She has led, coached, and participated on both co-located and distributed teams, presented to IEEE IPCC on virtual teaming, and has been previously engaged to create an offshore development best practices white paper for a large local high-tech firm. Her client list includes a wide range of businesses including ADP, CoreLogic, Daimler/Chrysler, Action Without Borders/Idealist.org, Mentor Graphics, Portland General Electric, Oregon Health Authority, The Regence Group, and Tripwire. This event is free and is at Puppet Labs. It begins at 6:30 pm with pizza, sponsored by PNSQC (Many thanks to both Puppet Labs and PNSQC for supporting agile in Portland). The program starts at 7:00 pm. After the program you're invited to join us for a no-host gathering at a nearby brewpub. → Offshore development and distributed teams are here to stay (see CIO Journal 2/27/12 “Offshore Outsourcing Can Boost Agility).” Some people contend that it can’t be done effectively.

create Calagator::Event 1250462152 CHIFOO - Home Energy Monitoring and Management Systems (HEMS) Roll back

description nil → Up to 57 million smart meters are expected to be deployed in the United States in the next two decades, which presents an unprecedented opportunity for greater visibility into home energy use. Smart meters themselves are not, however, customer-friendly portals, nor do they give utilities the option of communicating with their customers directly. This is where in-home displays (IHD), or the more comprehensive home energy monitoring and management systems (HEMS) come into play. Monitoring devices for the home, such as the Kill-a-Watt, have been around for more than a decade, but the first technologies on the market can be considered analog, at best. In the past several years, more mature HEMS have evolved which can give customers detailed information about every energy-using device in their home. The most sophisticated HEMS, such as Tendril’s Connect platform, allow homeowners to control their lighting, appliances, and even electric vehicles remotely, truly transforming a home into a smart home. But, these systems are only just emerging on the market, and there is no road map for how utilities use them to communicate with customers. In this talk, Emily will discuss the evolution of these devices and what the latest technologies on the market are capable of, as well as how HEMS play a pivotal role in the evolution of the smart home. About the Speaker Emily Kemper is an Associate Member of the American Institute of Architects, and is the only public member of the Oregon Governor’s Board for Residential and Manufactured Structures. In her capacity at PECI, she is working to leverage emerging technology into existing and new residential energy efficiency program models, while advancing industry and public knowledge of energy efficiency in homes and buildings. Emily hails from Cincinnati, Ohio, and has a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture and a Master’s degree in Building Science. Her current research includes home energy monitoring systems, saving energy through behavior change, and smart homes. Her hobbies include photography, blogging, and following Nissan LEAFs around Portland on her bike.
