On October 5, SpaceX Crew Dargon blasted off to the International Space Station. Anna Kikina, a woman cosmonaut from Russia, was on board the SpaceX spacecraft. "A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket propelled the Dragon Endurance spacecraft into orbit carrying NASA astronauts Nicole Mann as mission commander, and Josh Cassada, pilot. JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Koichi Wakata and Roscosmos cosmonaut Anna Kikina, also aboard the Dragon, will serve as mission specialists for their science expedition in microgravity aboard the space station," NASA wrote. The participation of a Russian cosmonaut in the launch launch was made possible owing to the cross-flight programme: a Russian cosmonaut boarded SpaceX, and an American astronaut flew to the ISS on board a Soyuz spacecraft.

"Snap's town had a witch. At least, that's how the rumor goes. But in reality, Jacks is just a crocks-wearing, internet-savvy old lady who sells roadkill skeletons online— after doing a little ritual to put their spirits to rest. It's creepy, sure, but Snap thinks it's kind of cool, too. They make a deal: Jacks will teach Snap how to take care of the baby opossums that Snap rescued, and Snap will help Jacks with her work. But as Snap starts to get to know Jacks, she realizes that Jacks may in fact have real magic— and a connection with Snap's family's past." -- Provided by publisher.

In this Episode we discuss software architecture evaluation with Dragos Manolescu, an architect at Microsoft's patterns & practices group.

We start off the discussion by trying to define what software architecture evaluation is and when and you want to evaluate an architecture in the system's lifecycle. We then make sure evaluators set the expectations for the evaluation process right - it is important to understand that architecture evaluation is typically not primarily a review of the technology decisions made for the architecture.

We then discuss the kinds of notations that are useful for describing architectures, and which of these are especially helpful for the evaluator. Next we look at the core of the architecture evaluation task, namely, the integration of the various stakeholders and their views. We also discuss real reviews from reviews that are staged "for show" only.

Next in the discussion is a brief look at the tools you can use for architecture evaluation, as well as a closer look at the various methods for achitecture evalualtion proposed by the Software Engineering Institute (SEI). We conclude the discussion by outlining how architecture evaluation fits into an agile development process.

... and finally, we briefly plug the PLOPD5 book, on which Dragos, Markus and James Noble have been working recently :-)

Greetings, Spy Vibers! It's been a busy season for me teaching filmmaking, photography, and drawing once again. My latest episode on the Cocktail Nation radio show went live at the beginning of the month and I'm finally adding a post here so Spy Vibers can check it out. Every month I contribute a short introduction to a classic film or show and play cuts from the score. Immersed as I've been lately in kung fu movies, I devoted August to Roger Moore's second outing as James Bond in The Man with the Golden Gun. And when September came around it was natural to then turn my attention to that greatest icon of the martial arts world, Bruce Lee! Lee was born in San Francisco in 1940 and raised in Hong Kong. A child actor, student of Wing Chun master Ip Man, and a scrappy fighter with a talent for getting into trouble, Lee went to the States at nineteen to study and straighten out his life. With a dream of creating a national chain of kung fu schools, Lee was active in public demonstrations of martial arts, which eventually caught the attention of Hollywood. Producer William Dozier had plans to make a James Bond-style television series loosely based on Charlie Chan, called Number One Son, and Lee was lined up as the star. But as we now know, Dozier's Batman became the priority and Lee found himself in development hell. Number One Son fell through, but Green Hornet was in! Although not a great starring role -Lee's "Kato" was essentially a traditional Hollywood house-boy role with added action scenes- but his charisma on screen was inescapable. The series only lasted a season. By the early 1970s Lee was once again back in Hong Kong and building what would be his great, albeit brief, career in major action films. My focus for the radio show was Enter the Dragon, Lee's last completed film, which mixed his blinding-speed abilities with a story about a British intelligence mission to thwart an evil mastermind with an island lair. Sadly, Lee passed away just shortly before the film's debut; actor George Lazenby (On Her Majesty's Secret Service) was waiting to meet him at a restaurant to discuss their new project, but Lee never arrived. During his US career, Lee taught stars such as James Coburn (Our Man Flint) and he worked as an action coach for various projects, including the Matt Helm spy flick, The Wrecking Crew. Apparently he also liked to work out to the music from TV's Mission: Impossible, so it was a cool bonus that Enter the Dragon was scored by Lalo Schifrin. You can hear my brief intro and a cut from the soundtrack here. Spy Vibers who are interested in spending more time in this Spy-Fu world should also check out the great run of Marvel's 1970s comic, Master of Kung Fu, by Doug Munch and Paul Gulacy. It's out of print, but I recommend volume #2 of the Epic Collection (see below). You'll love it! And if you have nostalgia for the UK poster magazine, Kung Fu Monthly, check out b&w archive editions on Amazon and color editions at Kung Fu Monthly. By sheer coincidence, just this morning, the city of Oakland officially renamed a street Bruce Lee Way to commemorate an early martial arts school he founded there. Spy Vibers visiting the Bay Area can also check out a cool Bruce Lee exhibit at the Chinese Historical Society. Great to see his legacy celebrated!
