final game board., check out the rook where his pawn was LOL.

However the dude on the right(black hat, white shirt) to advantage of his excitment on being focused on that side of the board....moved his rook back one a round, then
moved it to take out his pawn..which cost him the game!

see the rook where one of his pawns once was..


LESSON LEARNED TODAY: "Don't talk about it, just do it!"

"..I got 3 on the man up!"


Walking around DC yesterday after meeting a friend of lunch..spotted into a very intense chess game happening on 16th..


"I got three on the man up!,....You see...I got three on the man up!..."
dude on the left in green repeated this i think like 20 times, while sipping on something in a bag..he was referring to 3 pawns on that attack to be made a queen....

The FBI computer upgrade that wasn’t


"SAIC was at fault because of the usual contractor reluctance to tell the customer, 'You're screwed up. You don't know what you're doing. This project is going to fail because you're not managing your side of the equation,' " said Kay, who later became the chief U.S. weapons inspector in Iraq. "There was no one to tell the government that they were asking the impossible. And they -weren't going to get the impossible."
-from Article.

How can you possibly get to the final delivery with more than half of the functionality not there/tested?

This project I am sure did not require 200 developers, after all it said only 700k of code was produced.

"You know all those security scenarios we ran through? We're smack in the middle of one we didn't think of."
I bet this movie will be the best of the summer, I am headed to see it

People come in your life for a reason.

PEOPLE  COME INTO YOUR LIFE FOR A  REASON

  • People  come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you know which  one it is, you will know what to do for that person.

  • When someone is in your  life  for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They  have come  to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance  and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a  godsend and they are. They are there for the   reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or  at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes  they  act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that  our need  has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done.  The  prayer you sent up  has been answered and now it is time to move on.

  • Some  people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow  or learn. They bring you an experience  of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never  done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.

  • LIFETIME  relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things  you must build upon in order to have  a solid emotional foundation. Your  job is to accept the lesson,  love the person and put what you  have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your  life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.  a friend of mine sent this to me.



This is why we are not going to make it.
