Regardless of your interpretation or meaning, just about every man can respect the authority and power they once commanded. Unrivaled bravely, incredible sheer strength and stamina, and a relentless drive for victory paint their picture quite well. In terms of symbolism, you could attribute it to the pinnacle of being one of the most lethal and feared warriors. Now, if that sounds like a considerable amount of gear, just remember that the Spartans also fought with a hoplite shield called the Aspis. Not to mention, these soldiers also carried a small sword for close combat.

Redmine also has an advantage in access: it is available to project managers, other team members, as well as, the clients. Along with basic project management features, this Redmine includes a wiki, repository, and issue tracker. Where it lacks enterprise features, compared with the other project management tools I've mentioned above, it has strong web applications. It's powerful, runs on Ruby and Rails, and is licensed under GNU General Public License v2 (GPL). Redmine is a web-based project management tool that I actively use. In 2014, ]po[ hopes to release version 4.2 which will bring a full AJAX GUI, integration between collaboration features and project management, and more. ]popo[ runs as client software on both Windows and Linux, depending on a stack of open source packages. It supports integration with 30+ packages such as OpenLDAP, OpenOffice, ProjectLibre, and others. A full installation is based on over 100 open source packages including a Linux distro, Postgre SQL, TCL as it’s main language, Perl for system integration, and many more. ]po[ is said to be used by over 6,000 companies worldwide. "We're not dealing with individual project managers, but focus on organizations with 10 – 1,000 users that earn their money by executing projects." In our interview with Frank Bergmann, founder of ]project-openpo[ for short, is meant to do: OpenProject ranks in my personal top three favorite open source project management tools because of their user interface, documentation, and rich feature set. Version 3.0 will support Ruby 2.0 and Rails 3.2. OpenProject is currently working on a major upgrade ready for release during 2014 Q1. ![]() There are two big features that deserve to be highlighted: OpenProject supports Accessibility and a Scrum plugin supporting Agile methods and Scrum teams. I happen to agree with their tagline that this tool has "everything you need for collaboration" to support the entire project life cycle. OpenProject is released under the GNU General Public License Version 3 and runs on Ruby on Rails. ![]() "Team collaboration redesigned" is how we introduced our interview with Birthe Lindenthal, Chairperson of the OpenProject Foundation's Board of Directors. I did not note any newly released features or version release dates for 2014. LibrePlan ranks in my personal top three favorite open source project management tools because of its modern design and balanced user interface, as well as, good and complete documentation, built in reporting, and professional support. These features coupled with a web based application make LibrePlan a great collaboration platform. This is another full featured tool supporting resource allocation, Gantt charts, financials, and more. LibrePlan is a web based application, making project management available to not just the project manager, but the entire project team, and if necessary across organisations. ProjectLibre was awarded InfoWorld's " Best of Open Source" in 2013 and ranks in my personal top three favorite open source project management tools. It is not clear yet when the SaaS version will become available. During their 2014 Q1 this year, they will release version 2.0. ProjectLibre is a Java based client tool. This will allow connector modules for better integration with enterprise solutions such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP). In December 2013, ProjectLibre released version 1.5.8, and a full rewrite of the codebase towards an Open Services Gateway Initiative (OSGI) modular architecture is ongoing. ProjectLibre is a good alternative to a commercial software product like Microsoft Project. In our interview with Marc O’Brien, co-founder of ProjectLibre, we featured a tool with support for task management, resource allocation, tracking, Gantt charts, and much more. ![]() This is by no means an exhaustive list, but each tool listed here has been deliberately selected based on a rich feature set. Last year, covered some popular open source project management tools (ProjectLibre, ]project-open[, and OpenProject.)

The historical circumstances made that the paramount issue in the play. “And in mind, it wasn’t about black-white. “It’s about a man who essentially moves out of his tribe and gets clobbered,” Sherin told The American Theatre in 2000. Sackler drew inspiration from these events, seeing in Johnson an opportunity to tell a story about a man who becomes a hero but is nonetheless destined for a downfall, someone who many-including the play’s director, Ed Sherin-likened to the titular character in William Shakespeare’s Coriolanus. Sullivan told the New York Times, “Scarcely has there ever been a championship contest that was so one-sided.” Upon being wooed into returning to the ring, Jeffries made his reasons perfectly clear, publicly announcing, "I am going into this fight for the sole purpose of proving that a white man is better than a Negro.”Īs history reveals, Jeffries proved no such thing: not only did Johnson win the fight by a technical knockout in round 15, but as fellow boxer John L. The play’s title came from the descriptor assigned decades earlier to any white boxer who stepped into the ring to challenge Johnson, although it was most famously used to describe Jeffries, who had retired from the ring more than five years before the landmark fight. In addition to mirroring the tensions Johnson and Duryea endured in pursuing an interracial relationship during the early 20th century, Eleanor’s ultimate fate mirrors that of Duryea, who died by suicide in 1912. In addition to developing a story which focused on an equivalent of the Johnson-Jeffries fight, Sackler constructed a storyline based on the relationship between Johnson and his first wife, a white woman named, Etta Terry Duryea, represented in the play by the character of Eleanor Bachman. In The Great White Hope, black boxer Jack Jefferson-a name change borne out of legal concerns-becomes so successful that a fight is set up between Jefferson and the reigning heavyweight champion of the world, a white man. Sackler’s much-lauded play arrived in 1967, as the civil rights movement’s struggles were at last bearing fruit. ![]() Photo by Afro American Newspapers / Gado / Getty Images That said, both served to launch the careers of two actors on the rise and brought to the public a poignant story of interracial romance and the struggle for interracial couples to find acceptance in America.Īlexander and Jones in a publicity still from the 1970 film The play’s message about the nature of racism and racial conflict succeeded in providing audiences with an opportunity to better understand different perspectives through the prism of its characters, but the film adaptation failed to deliver the same powerhouse impact. That work of historical fiction, by playwright Howard Sackler, perhaps reveals more about the time in which it was written than the time in which it is set. Jeffries in 1910, would have known Jackson’s story through the play and movie The Great White Hope. His 2005 series “Unforgivable Blackness,” brought the true story of the life and career of Jack Johnson, the black boxer who fought his way up through the pugilism ranks to become the world heavyweight champion, to television.īut before Burns, those who weren’t around for the so-called “Fight of the Century” that saw Johnson outslug James J.

Bottom line - fun to play (love the streak mini game) but unless you like hard core competition or you have no life - stay away from the clubs - especially the high level ones! And the members in the diamond, legend & platinum clubs are hard core. If our leader sees them go idle before they hit 750 they’re deleted. The club I’m in has a rule that a new member must hit 750 club points before going idle. Club members who don’t hit the weekly goal are dropped from the club. Most of the club leaders impose weekly goals & if you want to stay in the club & reap the rewards be prepared to spend a lot of time on the app (& unless you’re the luckiest person on the planet, expect to spend a small fortune on boosters). If you’re competitive then join a club - but be prepared to feel the pressure. I recommend it if you’re planning to play in your own. The app has really improved since I first downloaded it a few years ago. It’s too easy to get sucked up into buying boosters (& coins) to make the club goals! It is fun though.

Emerald, the dominant third party viewer from 2010, accounted for only half the user hours then. However, rather than that expanding the userbase for the company's own software, usage among existing users seems to have slipped. The SL viewer has seen a number of usability improvements since Rod Humble became CEO in early 2011. Linden Lab has little control over Second Life as it is actually used by most of its established userbase, and has little chance of re-gaining the market lead. But that to one side, Oz's words lead to some pretty extraordinary conclusions, among them: So my original estimate of Phoenix usage from yesterday was way off, and I've corrected it as much as possible (short of just replacing the whole post with a picture of Keyboard Cat, which I'm tempted to do). ![]() Up to 65-75% of SLers are now using Phoenix or Firestorm, and 65-85% of total SL user minutes are on those viewers. Still, it's unlikely the shares have changed drastically in two months, and based on what Oz says, along with what some SL insiders have suggested elsewhere, I think the following is a very plausible estimate: "The 'market shares' of various Viewers isn't a data point we're currently sharing," spokesman Peter Gray told me. This admission came in March, as I said, so I checked with Linden Lab if it remained true: And our viewer is number three behind Firestorm." And Firestorm is the newer technology viewer from your project, is the number two, and it's gaining market share. Phoenix is far and away the number one viewer, although it's quite steadily losing market share these days, has been for some months now. A significant minority - we're the number three viewer behind, behind the two. At about 33 minutes into the conversation, Lawrence says this in relationship to the official Second Life viewer as compred with Phoenix and Firestorm, which are third party SL viewers made by The Phoenix Viewer Project team, a large consortium of SL users (none of whom are well known by their real names): "Our own viewer users are a minority. It's so important, it needs to be highlighted here. Third party viewer developer Tonya Souther recently pointed out a very important March interview on Treet TV with Linden Lab's Open Development director Scott "Oz Linden" Lawrence, which includes a crucial passage I initially missed. ![]() ![]() “Most ginger ales don’t actually contain real ginger,” says O’Neill. But it’s likely not the ginger that settled your tummy. “Improved blood sugar regulation may help with weight loss and potentially make your body more sensitive to insulin.”Īs a kid, your parents might have given you ginger ale to treat an upset stomach. “When you’re insulin resistant, sometimes, it can make it harder to lose weight,” O’Neill explains. This could lead to additional positive side effects. Studies have also found that ginger encourages your muscles to absorb glucose, without requiring you to take extra insulin. People with Type 2 diabetes often don’t produce enough insulin, which is important to ensuring glucose circulates throughout your body and doesn’t accumulate in your bloodstream. “The ginger reduces enzymes that break down carbohydrates and so it helps with glucose (sugar) metabolism,” notes O’Neill. This is key to controlling the long-term health effects of Type 2 diabetes. Gingerol could also explain ginger’s role in keeping blood sugar levels steady. In a few days, people may anecdotally say, ‘You know what, I feel like I’m in less pain.’” Improves blood sugar regulation Researchers studying the effects of ginger found the spice has a delayed effect. “When you take over-the-counter pain medication, it helps in an instant.
