An excellent book on this topic

Death March

· Score: 2
I've skimmed Yourdon's book, but the one I found more useful was How to Run Successful High-Tech Project-Based Organizations
by Fergus O'Connell. It's very practical and concise. Some of the tools offered don't seem very polished, but they're a good place to start. This is an expansion of a previous book of his (the title included something about "the Silver Bullet"), with 10 steps to make sure that a) you don't sign on to projects that will fail, and b) the projects you do sign on to stay on-track.
Basically, it comes down to having the balls to say "no" when you know the project is a death march/suicide mission.
IP addresses and domain/host names are related through DNS, which is just a big, distributed index. What would it take to build an alternate index, accessed via a different protocol?
Here's the page run through BabelFish. Doesn't say much more than what the post already covered:
Echelon: Display approximately unknown
Ilka Schroeder, member of the European parliament, refunded o'clock on today's Monday at 10.00 with the Chief Federal Prosecutor, with the public prosecutor's office trusting stone and with the public prosecutor's office Berlin display against Echelon. The display was issued against " unknown suspects in particular from the USA and Great Britain as well as if necessary the German Federal Government because of operation and tolerating the espionage system ECHELON ".
Schroeder appoints itself thereby to reports of Duncan Campbell and article in Telepolis. The legal lever it sets with the Chief Federal Prosecutor with its competence for the pursuit of certain offences against the patent -, for semiconductor law for the protection and utility model. Schroeder assumes in its charge, which is present Telepolis that " these regulations become obviously hurt by the described restaurant espionage activity of the suspects ".
How Schroeder said this morning opposite Telepolis, she wants to lift the discussion with the charge " over Echelon on another political level ". Since passed week the taking place investigation in the " not-constant committee " of the European parliament is " too little zielorientiert".(Christiane Schulzki Haddouti)
I'm trying to decide which is more inane: the Justice Department "submitting" Carnivore to such a tightly controlled review, or/. readers asking one of the reviewers to assuage their privacy fears.
I have a patent pending for a gas-powered notebook which will solve the whole limited battery life problem. It uses an engine similar to the one on leaf blowers and motorized scooters, although to keep the weight down I've removed any noise muffling hardware. I'm also working on a fuel additive that would mask the exhaust smell, making it smell like cigar smoke.

The first wish that comes to mind is fiber to my door. God knows what it costs, but it's definitely in the unlimited category.
