Data is clearly an important aspect of software-based systems, a fact that the information technology (IT) industry has understood for decades, yet many agile development teams are struggling to involve data professionals within their projects. The Agile Data (AD) methodology (www.agiledata.org) defines a philosophical framework for data-oriented activities within agile projects, defining ways that application developers and data professionals can work together effectively. However, philosophy isn't enough, you also need proven techniques which support those philosophies. In this presentation Scott Ambler discusses techniques for agile database development, including: database refactoring, Agile-Model Driven Development (AMDD), Test-Driven Design (TDD), and environment/tool strategies. Scott W. Ambler is an industry-recognized software process improvement (SPI) expert. He is the practice leader of the Agile Modeling (AM), Agile Data (AD), Agile Unified Process (AUP), and Enterprise Unified Process (EUP) methodologies. Scott is the (co-)author of several books, including Refactoring Databases (Prentice Hall), Agile Modeling (John Wiley & Sons), Agile Database Techniques (John Wiley & Sons), The Object Primer 3rd Edition (Cambridge University Press), and The Enterprise Unified Process (Prentice Hall). Scott is a contributing editor with Software Development magazine. His personal home page is www.ambysoft.com/scottAmbler.html. Based on the passage above, Can you provide a summary of Scott Ambler's presentation on Agile Database Techniques and its importance in the new age of software-based systems?<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>

Deputy General Manager Shiue of Tatung Company, a Taiwan-based company with subsidiaries in Asia, America, and Europe, attended the sold-out Taoyuan premiere of Shen Yun Performing Arts 2016 on April 14. “They skillfully applied their foundation for classical Chinese dance to every detail of their performance, which is indeed rare.

Every detail is given meticulous attention and is a result of artistic inspiration and careful polishing,” according to Shen Yun’s official Website. Shen Yun’s “costume design is exquisite. I found that they have made some major breakthroughs,” he said. “The color coordination for every set of the costumes is terrific. Take the dance piece ‘Fairies of the Sea,’ for instance. The synchronization among blue, light blue, and white is marvelous.

Generate according to: Earlier this year, photo-sharing mobile app Instagram (now Facebook-owned) updated its advertising offering by introducing its “Carousel” ad platform. Take up has been slow but steady, and we are now starting to see the new approach bear fruit. In the latest instalment of ADTEKR’s Social Advertising Series, we take a look at the adtech behind Carousel, analyse initial performance and consider how this ad platform might develop in the future. How does the environment in which an ad is presented affect consumers’ perception of the brand or product promoted in the ad? Thomas from Olswang’s Berlin office considers this question in light of a study by the Association of German magazine publishers (“VDZ”). Back in February, ADTEKR looked at Snapchat’s imminent move into the adtech world. The approach, Snapchat claimed, was simple: a unique, non-intrusive, positive advertising experience that promised unprecedented user engagement. What looked to be the main issue was cost. Snapchat announced that it would charge advertisers a flat rate of $750,000 per day for a single 24 hour advertising feature; its publishing partners would also be able to command very high prices. Has this bold move paid off? Two months later, ADTEKR is back to analyse the story so far. Taykey, an Israeli ad tech company with its eye on social trends, has attracted a heap of VC funding in a short period of time. ADTEKR considers why it has attracted the high profile investment.<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>

Available in ..Twill Jacket, Fleece Jacket, Hooded Reversible Packable Puffer Jacket, Hooded Vest, Windbreaker Jacket, and Hooded Rain Jacket. One place to see such a sunset is at Lake Mead National Recreation area located in the Basin and Range provinces of the American Southwest. It is more georgeous at sunset as the deep purple lake and pink skies set off against black hills. My true love, at first sight. You smiled because you knew. The sunshine in my eyes. May our hearts never part. To cry in silence, and be heard. To see the light, yet not be blinded by it. To embrace with affection without clinging too tightly. To hear the sounds, and rejoice with gladness. To touch the glass with eager lips and taste, yet not drain it. To see the sunset, and believe there is a tomorrow. To see the leaves fall, and wait for a new beginning. To walk in someone else’s shoes, and know you have been there. To share with others, and experience the gift of giving. To enjoy freedom, and know your boundaries. On your life’s journey, there are always angels by your side.<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>

The rise of parliamentary democracy in England during the 19th century reflected broader changes in political philosophy and ideology in several ways. First, the increasing importance of individual liberty and rights as espoused by Enlightenment thinkers such as John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau had a profound impact on the development of parliamentary democracy in England. These philosophers argued that individuals have natural rights to life, liberty, and property, and that government exists to protect these rights. As a result, the idea of representative government – whereby elected representatives would act as the voice of the people in parliament – gained

The microparticulation process combines thermal and mechanical treatment in a newly developed APV Shear Agglomerator machine to produce a product with a similar look, texture and viscosity as coffee cream. The Shear Agglomerator enables precise control of protein particle sizes within very narrow constraints and combined with a long operation time, the company stated. The process enables the producers to make a microparticulated whey protein concentrate product consisting of homogeneous protein particles of similar size as fat globules in milk. The APV process allows processors to control particle size distribution. This allows dairy and food producers to customise the product for a wide variety of different recipes and end products. The process has been under development for three years, partly together with a development partner in Germany, and partly at APV's own research centre in Silkeborg, Denmark. Five LeanCreme plants have been sold in the past year, the company stated. Potential clients can rent an APV pilot plant to test the process for their own products under development. APV has applied for a patent for critical elements of the process.

This built-in grill is heavy duty, and some interesting features are available, but cooking options are not as full spectrum as you'd expect in this price range. A motorized rotisserie unit with its own infrared burner rated at 15K BTUs has a weight capacity of 50 pounds, enough for two turkeys on the spit at once. This is a much better option than trying to cook with indirect heat on this two burner grill. Each of the main burners is rated at 28K BTUs, and all three are independently adjustable. Standard on this grill is an "easy slide" grease-catching pan that runs in and out of the catch area on ball bearings -- that's a very pleasing touch, considering how unpleasant it can be to struggle with a pan full of grease and waste oil. While not especially fancy, this grill was made to please, with heavy duty controls that are polished stainless steel and an insulated grill hood. The friendliest addition to the design is a halogen lighting system under the hood, so you can continue to cook after sundown without bringing in spotlights. As with most grills, the high quality stainless steel cabinet will still require a grill cover for protection from weather -- the stainless steel won't rust, but there are openings which could let in rain and cause other problems.

The motorized rotisserie unit on the OCI Elite 30 Propane Grill works by having its own infrared burner rated at 15K BTUs that rotates the meat on the spit.

The rotisserie unit is independently adjustable from the main burners and can be used simultaneously with them. Overall, it is a great feature to have on a built-in grill.

Vice President of Economic Development Daryl Sny- der, Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer and LJS Partners President and CEO Mike Kern. Local leaders and company officials gathered on Feb. 9 for the official ribbon-cutting ceremony to unveil Long John Silver’s new worldwide corporate headquarters in Louisville. The new headquarters will be home to approximately 70 employees and represents a $3.8 million investment. Newly formed LJS Partners acquired Long John Silver’s from Louisville-based YUM! Brands last December following YUM!’s decision to sell Long John Silver’s and A&W Restaurants to focus on more aggressive international expansion and improving the U.S. Position of its Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and KFC brands. YUM! sold Long John Silver’s and A&W to separate buyers, but both have decided to keep their headquarters in Kentucky, with A&W locating in Lexington and Long John Silver’s in Louisville. Long John Silver’s was founded in Lexington in 1969, but moved its headquarters to Louisville in 2003 when it became part of YUM! Brands. The company has grown to become America’s largest quickserve seafood chain with more than 1,300 franchised restaurants and 8,400 employees worldwide. To encourage LJS Partners to keep the headquarters operation in Kentucky, the Kentucky Economic Development Finance Authority preliminarily approved LJS Partners for tax incentives up to $1.5 million through the Kentucky Business Investment Program. The performance-based incentive can be earned over the term of the agreements through corporate income tax credits and wage assessments by meeting specific job and wage targets.

Courses in geology, geography, meteorology, astronomy, and oceanography provide a diverse background for future geoscience teachers, and for students who are undecided as to which area of geoscience they want to enter. With recent changes requiring more high school science, many students are entering the earth science field to improve their career opportunities. VU’s geoscience majors have transferred to a number of universities, both in and out of state, to complete B.S. Degrees. Vincennes University is now offering a four-year degree program leading to licensing as an geoscience teacher in the secondary school system. Likewise, many students entering the program are soon captivated by a particular branch of geoscience and switch to a specialty such as geology, geography, or natural resources. Vincennes University offers a direct transfer to Purdues's College of Agriculture to students who successfully fullfill the requirements of the VU-Purdue Agriculture Transfer program. Students are then treated as resident Purdue students in their junior year in the College of Agriculture.
