Hi again all, We are looking at a slightly more bullish than bearish scenario in the SPY today with the VIX dropping (holding steady now) and TRINQ just getting into the bullish zone. Not too bad for having the kind of news we did today.

 Chapter 3: The Big PictureThis show continues a chapter by chapter discussion about the new book, Lean-Agile Software Development: Achieving Enterprise Agility, by Alan Shalloway, Guy Beaver, and Jim Trott. This show focuses on Chapter 3, The Big Picture. We talk about why, if you want to see improvements in throughput in product development, it is vital to focus on the entire value stream, the entire process from when an idea is formed until it reaches the user or customer. In fact, a transition to Lean-Agile involves agility in at least four areas. It is not enough just to focus on helping developers. In order to see improvements in the throughput for product development, you have to look at the whole value stream: the entire process from when an idea is formed until it reaches the user or customer. You want to focus not on where you are spending your money but where you are spending your time. And this means looking at the time you spend waiting as well. Keeping people busy can be counter-productive if it keeps them from being available on the most important things. Think of it this way: What is the impact if projects are having to wait on the most productive, highest value people just because they are working on too many things? Agile coaches often have a technical background. This means that too often, Agile deployments focus chiefly on helping developers. This is good and necessary but it is not sufficient. If delays are being caused elsewhere, then improving development will only offer marginal gains. When you are transitioning, you have to look at improving agility in four areas: Team agilityTechnical agilityManagement agilityBusiness agilityOf course, where to start depends on your situation.About Lean-Agile Software Development: Achieving Enterprise AgilityThe motivation of this book is to create a bigger picture what teams transitioning to agile need to do. Yes, teams need to understand the mechanics of the approach to get working, but there is more. Management needs to understand how to help teams work together. Business leadership prioritizing the right things to be working on. And there is a need to ensure technical quality so that development can be done in a sustainable way.We also want to introduce Lean and how it applies to the transition. We don t believe scaling up is a very effective approach. Rather, taking a more holistic view is needed to get success. That is how Lean thinking helps.This is not a book for experienced practitioners but for those who are picking Agile, Scrum, or Lean for software development. We expect you do understand a bit about Agile but not anything about Lean.For more information see the resource page for the book.Recommendations Lean-Agile Software Development: Achieving Enterprise Agility by Alan Shalloway, Guy Beaver, and James R Trott The Lean-Agile Pocket Guide for Scrum Teams by Alan Shalloway and James R Trott Emergent Design: The Evolutionary Nature of Professional Software Development by Scott Bain Design Patterns Explained by Alan Shalloway and James R TrottFor more information, visit us at http://www.netobjectives.com/Music used in this podcast is by Bill Cushman at http://ghostnotes.blogspot.com and Kevin McLeod: http://www.incompetech.com/.

Part 3 http://www.timeline2012.net This video includes: Ivan/Evon Stein providing a detailed understanding of the galactic equator; when and how Earth passes the galactic equator; what kind of energies exist there; what are the possible causes to Earth and the solar system; and how the galactic equator may be responsible for the polar shift, reversal of Earth s rotation, and the coming ice age. This video includes scientific examples of how energy is released on the galactic equator, along with deep space photos from the Hubble telescope of galaxies and visual energy being released by a galaxy. Ivan demonstrates the path that Earth takes around the Milky Way galaxy and the frequency of passing the galactic equator.

Part 4 http://www.timeline2012.net This video includes: Ivan/Evon Stein discussing the concepts of a static or dynamic Solar System; what cosmic forces can cause changes to our Solar System; how the Sumerians reference Niburu as having altered our Solar System; and the relationship between Mars and Venus. This video includes the findings of a Russian scientist who has concluded that every planet in our Solar System is being affected by some external cosmic force. Ivan reveals and dispels the common misunderstandings related to Mars, what caused the Valles Marineris Canyon, and why Mars no longer has an atmosphere. He then provides a conclusion of what is most likely causing changes to every planet in our Solar System today.

Bre Pettis teaches you to make the brain machine and play with your brain waves! This gadget, invented by Mitch Altman, pulses at the rate of different brain waves as you wear it and your own brain sympathizes with the pulses and you can be led into a very relaxed state.There are flashing lights, so this is not for folks who are epileptic!This project is from the pages of Make Magazine!
