A very refreshing and mind-opening journey that shares a wonderful look into a number of startling truths about the way we think."
--C. Brandy DouglasPresident, The Douglas Group, Inc.
"Jim Nightingale provides a new and unique perspective on organizations today. The thesis of his books...is basic to working and managing in today's knowledge economy. Anyone who is responsible for making complex organizational decisions should benefit from this book."
--Peter SorensenDirector, Organization Development PhD Program, Benedictine University, Illinois
"We have all seen really smart, successful people do really dumb things. We have all asked the question, 'what was he/she thinking?' Jim Nightingale has taken an interesting, cerebral look at why this might be. His views are thought-provoking for those interested in getting the most out of their organization."
--Spencer Clark IIIFormer Chief Learning Officer, Cadence Design Systems
Why do smart people sometimes do such stupid things?
In 1720 Isaac Newton lost a fortune in a stock market crash that he had personally predicted. How could this happen? Since the discoverer of gravity and the inventor of calculus can hardly be accused of stupidity, we must seek other reasons for this, and other, high-profile judgment errors by very smart people.
Whether you are a CEO, a business manager, or simply a student of human behavior, Think Smart--Act Smart reveals why smart people make costly mistakes and provides you with a realistic plan to think smart in your life and on the job.

Apress Practical Web 2.0 Applications With PHP

http://img355.imageshack.us/img355/9430/practicalwebapplicationhb0.gif
Many of today’s web development books and articles cover single aspects of the development life cycle, delving only into specific features rather than looking at the whole picture. In this book, we will develop a complete web application. Although we will be using various third-party libraries and tools to aid in development, we will be developing the application from start to finish.

The focus of this book is on Web 2.0, a catchphrase that has been in use for a few years now and is typically used to refer to web sites or web applications that have particular characteristics.

Some of these characteristics include the following:
• Correctly using HTML/XHTML, CSS, and other standards
• Using Ajax (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) to provide a responsive application without requiring a full refresh of pages
• Allowing syndication of web site content using RSS
• Adding wikis, blogs, or tags

Although not everybody is an advocate of the “Web 2.0” phrase, the term does signify forward progress in web development. And although not everybody has the need to provide a wiki or a blog on their web site, the other characteristics listed (such as correct standards usage) provide a good basis for a web site and should be used by all developers, regardless of how they want their web site or application categorized.

I wrote this book because I want to share with other users how I build web sites. Having been a web developer for ten years now (full-time for the past seven), I have a solid understanding of a wide range of web-related topics and have much to offer newer developers or developers looking to expand their own knowledge.

RSS and Atom in Action: Web 2.0 Building Blocks by Dave Johnson

RSS and Atom in Action is organized into two parts. The first part introduces the blog technologies of news feed formats and publishing protocols-the building blocks. The second part shows how to put to those blocks together to assemble interesting and useful blog applications. In keeping with the behind Manning's "In Action" series, this book shows the reader, through numerous examples in Java and C#, how to parse Atom and RSS format newsfeeds, how to generate valid newsfeeds and serve them efficiently, and how to automate blogging via web services based on the new Atom protocol and the older MetaWeblog API.

The book also shows how to develop a complete blog client library that readers can use in their own applications. The second half of the book is devoted to a dozen blog apps-small but immediately useful example applications such as a community aggregator, a file distribution newsfeed, a blog cross-poster, an email-to-blog gateway, Ant tasks for blogging

Hall-Effect Sensors, Second Edition: Theory and Application

Without sensors most electronic applications would not exist-sensors perform a vital function, namely providing an interface to the real world. Hall effect sensors, based on a magnetic phenomena, are one of the most commonly used sensing technologies today. In the 1970s it became possible to build Hall effect sensors on integrated circuits with onboard signal processing circuitry, vastly reducing the cost and enabling widespread practical use. One of the first major applications was in computer keyboards, replacing mechanical contacts. Hundreds of millions of these devices are now manufactured each year for use in a great variety of applications, including automobiles, computers, industrial control systems, cell phones, and many others.




The importance of these sensors, however, contrasts with the limited information available. Many recent advances in miniaturization, smart sensor configurations, and networkable sensor technology have led to design changes and a need for reliable information. Most of the technical information on Hall effect sensors is supplied by sensor manufacturers and is slanted toward a particular product line. System design and control engineers need an independent, readable source of practical design information and technical details that is not product- or manufacturer-specific and that shows how Hall effect sensors work, how to interface to them, and how to apply them in a variety of uses. This book covers:
. the physics behind Hall effect sensors
. Hall effect transducers
. transducer interfacing
. integrated Hall effect sensors and how to interface to them
. sensing techniques using Hall effect sensors
. application-specific sensor ICs
. relevant development and design tools

This second edition is expanded and updated to reflect the latest advances in Hall effect devices and applications!

Information about various sensor technologies is scarce, scattered and hard to locate. Most of it is either too theoretical for working engineers, or is manufacturer literature that can't be entirely trusted. Engineers and engineering managers need a comprehensive, up-to-date, and accurate reference to use when scoping out their designs incorporating Hall effect sensors.

It guides readers from an entry-level knowledge in computer networks to advanced concepts in thernet networks, router configuration, TCP/IP networks, routing protocols, local, campus, and wide area network configuration, network security, wireless networking, optical networks, Voice over IP, the network server, Linux networking, and industrial networks. After covering the entire text, readers will have gained a solid knowledge base in computer networks. In my years of teaching, I have observed that technology students prefer to learn “how to swim” after they have gotten wet and taken in a little water. Then they are ready for more challenges. Show the students the technology, how it is used, and why, and they will take the applications of the technology to the next level. Allowing them to experiment with the technology helps them to develop a greater understanding. This book does just that.

C Shap In Deepth

There are two kinds of pianists. There are some pianists who play not because they enjoy it, but because their parents force them to take lessons. Then there are those who play the piano because it pleases them to create music. They don’t need to be forced; on the contrary, they sometimes don’t know when to stop. Of the latter kind, there are some who play the piano as a hobby. Then there are those who play for a living. That requires a whole new level of dedication, skill, and talent. They may have some degree of freedom about what genre of music they play and the stylistic choices they make in playing it, but fundamentally those choices are
driven by the needs of the employer or the tastes of the audience. Of the latter kind, there are some who do it primarily for the money. Then there are those professionals who would want to play the piano in public even if they weren’t being paid. They enjoy using their skills and talents to make music for others. That they can have fun and get paid for it is so much the better. Of the latter kind, there are some who are self-taught, who “play by ear,” who might have great talent and ability but cannot communicate that intuitive understanding to others except through the music itself. Then there are those who have formal training in both theory and practice. They can explain what techniques the composer used to achieve the intended emotional effect, and use that knowledge to shape their interpretation of the piece. Of the latter kind, there are some who have never looked inside their pianos. Then there are those who are fascinated by the clever escapements that lift the damper felts a fraction of a second before the hammers strike the strings. They own key levelers
and capstan wrenches. They take delight and pride in being able to understand the mechanisms of an instrument that has five to ten thousand moving parts.
Of the latter kind, there are some who are content to master their craft and exercise their talents for the pleasure and profit it brings. Then there are those who are not just artists, theorists, and technicians; somehow they find the time to pass that knowledge on to others as mentors. I have no idea if Jon Skeet is any kind of pianist. But from my email conversations with him as one of the C# team’s Most Valuable Professionals over the years, from reading his blog and from reading every word of this book at least three times, it has become clear to me that Jon is that latter kind of software developer: enthusiastic, knowledgeable, talented, curious and analytical—a teacher of others. C# is a highly pragmatic and rapidly evolving language. Through the addition of query comprehensions, richer type inference, a compact syntax for anonymous functions,
and so on, I hope that we have enabled a whole new style of programming while still staying true to the statically typed, component-oriented approach that has made C# a success. Many of these new stylistic elements have the paradoxical quality of feeling very old (lambda expressions go back to the foundations of computer science in the first half of the twentieth century) and yet at the same time feeling new and unfamiliar to

developers used to a more modern object-oriented approach. Jon gets all that. This book is ideal for professional developers who have a need to understand the “what” and “how” of the latest revision to C#. But it is also for those developers whose understanding is enriched by exploring the “why” of the language’s design principles. Being able to take advantage of all that new power will require new ways of thinking
about data, functions, and the relationship between them. It’s not unlike trying to play jazz after years of classical training—or vice versa. Either way, I am looking forward to finding out what sorts of functional compositions the next generation of C# programmers come up with. Happy composing, and thanks for choosing the key of C# to do it in.

DNS on Windows Server 2003

DNS on Windows Server 2003
Description: While computers and other devices identify each other on networks or the Internet by using unique addresses made up of numbers, humans rely on the Domain Name System (DNS), the distributed database that allows us to identify machines by name. DNS does the work of translating domain names into numerical IP addresses, routing mail to its proper destination, and many other services, so that users require little or no knowledge of the system. If you're a network or system administrator, however, configuring, implementing, and maintaining DNS zones can be a formidable challenge. And now, with Windows Server 2003, an understanding of the workings of DNS is even more critical. DNS on Windows Server 20003 is a special Windows-oriented edition of the classic DNS and BIND, updated to document the many changes to DNS, large and small, found in Windows Server 2003. Veteran O'Reilly authors, Cricket Liu, Matt Larson, and Robbie Allen explain the whole system in terms of the new Windows Server 2003, from starting and stopping a DNS service to establishing an organization's namespace in the global hierarchy. Besides covering general issues like installing, setting up, and maintaining the server, DNS on Windows Server 2003 tackles the many issues specific to the new Windows environment, including the use of the dnscmd program to manage the Microsoft DNS Server from the command line and development using the WMI DNS provider to manage the name server pro grammatically. The book also documents new features of the Microsoft DNS Server in Windows Server 2003, including conditional forwarding and zone storage in Active Directory (AD) application partitions. DNS on Windows Server 2003 provides grounding in:



* Security issues
* System tuning
* Caching
* Zone change notification
* Troubleshooting
* Planning for growth

If you're a Windows administrator, DNS on Windows Server 2003 is the operations manual you need for working with DNS every day. If you're a Windows user who simply wants to take the mystery out of the Internet, this book is a readable introduction to the Internet's architecture and inner workings.

Ed Tittel and Jeff Noble, "HTML, XHTML & CSS For Dummies", 6th Edition


Now that we’ve made it into the twelfth go-round for HTML For Dummies, we
must once again thank our many readers for keeping this book alive. We’d
also like to thank them and the Wiley editors for providing the feedback that
drives the continuing improvement of this book. Please don’t stop now — tell
us what you want to do, and what you like and don’t like about this book.
Especially, please tell us what you liked and didn’t like about this, our fi rst
full-color edition of our book.
Let me also thank the many people who’ve also worked on this book over
the years, including James Michael Stewart, Natanya Anderson, Dori Smith,
Tom Negrino, Mary Burmeister, Rich Wagner, Brock Kyle, Chelsea Valentine,
and Kim Lindros. Of course, for this edition, I’m especially indebted to my
co-author and friend, Jeff Noble, for infusing insight and enthusiasm into this
book. I am eternally grateful to you for your ideas, your hard work, and your
experience in reaching an audience of budding Web experts.
Next, I’d like to thank the Wiley team for their efforts on this title. At Wiley,
I must thank Bob Woerner and Paul Levesque for their outstanding efforts,
and Barry Childs-Helton and Sue Jenkins for their editorial efforts in design,
layout, contents, and coverage. A special shout out should go to the friendly
folks in Composition Services for their artful page layouts, especially when it
came to keeping all the color-coded code straight.
I’d like to thank my lovely wife, Dina Kutueva-Tittel, and periodically pugnacious
4-year-old son, Gregory, for putting up with the usual rhythm of making
books happen. I know I’m not always as easy to live with as I should be, but
hopefully, I’ll get to keep working on that. Also, I’d like to thank my parents,
Al and Ceil, for all the great things they did for me, and for hanging in there
well into their ninth decades on this planet. I hope you’re both still around to
see the thirteenth edition come to print as well! Finally, profound thanks to
you again, Mom, for cultivating and encouraging my love of words, writing,
and banter.
Ed Tittel

Public-Private Partnerships: Managing Risks and Opportunities

Public Private Partnership is a key issue in the construction industry causing much concern among contractors, funders and facility managers. Demand has been building for a thorough analysis &This edited book will familiarise both researchers and construction professionals working with public private partnerships (PPP) with the issues involved in the planning, implementation and day-to-day management of public private projects. It will show how current risk management methods can help the complex process of managing procurement via such partnerships.The chapters - most authored by a practitioner/academic partnership - are organised round the concepts of best value and use the findings of a major research project investigating Risk Assessment and Management in Private Finance Initiative Projects. The analysis of this research will be supplemented with contributions by leading international experts from Hong Kong, Australia and Singapore, covering hospitals, schools, waste management and housing - to exemplify best practice in PPP-based procurement.
