Personalisation: a shared understanding, commissioning for personalisation - a personalised commissioning approach to support and care services
Set of three separate papers looking at the development and delivery of personalised services and approaches. The first paper considers what personalisation is and what areas need to be aligned to bring about real user engagement, flexibility and improved outcomes.
The second discusses the role of commissioning in transforming services to meet future needs and the third examines commissioning in greater detail and identifies the issues which arise at an operational level and which might need to be addressed.
In July 2008 the Scottish Government commissioned Scott Moncrieff to review the data security procedures within eight research contractors who had regularly been commissioned to carry out social research on behalf of the Scottish Government.
One year ago the Scottish Government launched Scotland's first drugs strategy since devolution. Central to the strategy was a new approach to tackling problem drug use based firmly on the concept of recovery. The action set out in the strategy reflects that tackling drug use requires action across a broad range of areas. This progress report takes the same approach.

Arulnathan Dominic Xavier makes guitars. Working with wood runs in his family, and he grew up seeing his brother making an acoustic guitar; it was never completed, but that was enough to draw him to the art. An aspiring musician turned luthier, he crafts 'dream guitars', instruments in keeping with his customer's desires.
Dedicated to his son, Arul, who passed away at the age of 17, his shop Arul Guitars was set up in 2005. "My son was also interested in guitars, and it was something we did together, so I quit my job in the Ministry of Rural Development in 2004 and set up this shop," says the craftsman.
A perfectionist who hates to see even a small glue mark inside a guitar, Arul, as he is known among friends, says guitar making is not just about carving wood and sticking it together.
"It is a process that demands accuracy, willingness and concentration. There are tiny details involved in the making, which, if not done perfectly, might spoil the entire look and feel of the guitar." He brings out the rosette he is making for one of his guitars — it took thousands of coloured sticks carefully fixed together to create a beautiful design.
Training and travel
One of the first guitars he made was a classical guitar in 2000. While he was working in the Ministry, he also travelled to Felton in California, where he trained for two years with accomplished guitar maker Kenny Hill. "Making guitars was my hobby since childhood, and I never left it. During my job also I used to make guitars."
He begins by choosing the right type of wood, which is followed by a number of processes including carving the different parts and giving the guitar curved shape using the 'Go-Bar Death', one of the tools that he makes. He invents tools to make work easier, such as one to which a shaving razor is attached, and one that he uses to level the wood.
This month, he has been conducting a workshop to teach the art to four musicians, who are now making their first guitars. "The experience is great, and for the first time we are learning how much detailing is involved in the process. We understand the value of guitars and the hard work behind making it," says Keith Roderigues, one of the participants.
Arul only makes custom guitars and one guitar he takes pride in is the combination percussive guitar — the face has a Turkish drum and a tabla, while on the other side is a classical guitar. This instrument has 54 strings altogether. "It took me a year to build it and it was a big challenge. I also like the harp guitar I made," he says.
Arul imports many of his materials from the U.S. "I try to give nothing less than the best," he says. Visit www.arulguitars.com.

Recently, McKinsey & Company released an article entitled Protecting information in the cloud which discussed the increased use of cloud computing by enterprises of a variety of sizes and industries and the benefits and risks cloud usage entails. The article recognizes that many organizations are already using cloud applications and realizing the efficiency and cost benefits and, in fact, most are looking to increase their usage of the cloud in 2013 and beyond in both private and public environments. But there are issues that are inhibiting adoption, such as risks associated with data security and concerns around privacy and compliance.
The McKinsey article rightly points out that allowing perceived risks to bar further adoption of the cloud is not a realistic option for most organizations, given the many compelling benefits offered. Enterprises must determine ways to embrace the cloud while also being able to satisfy important questions concerning security, compliance and regulatory protection that are hampering aggressive movement to the cloud.
The benefits of choosing either a public or private cloud option over the traditional on-premise deployment are clearly laid out by McKinsey. They conclude that the solution for many enterprises will be a hybrid approach of public and private cloud and, therefore, the primary question becomes which applications belong in which environments. This is where the article begins to fall short in its analysis of the issues surrounding cloud adoption, because it does not fully consider all solutions available, including Cloud Encryption Gateways.
The McKinsey article recommends applications such as Customer Resource Management (CRM) and Human Capital Management (HCM) are logical choices for public cloud deployment, but from my experience, many companies face barriers to even these types of applications for a variety of reasons, including the need to retain full control of any personally identifiable information (customer or employee) or to protect regulated data that may be subject to sector-based compliance requirements (think ITAR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, etc.). These important compliance and security concerns frequently force enterprises down an on-premise path (either a traditional enterprise software implementation or via a private cloud deployment).
In these situations, a Cloud Encryption Gateway can be used to keep the control of sensitive data in the hands of the organization that is adopting the public cloud service. These gateways intercept sensitive data while it is still on-premise and replaces it with a random tokenized or strongly encrypted value, rendering it meaningless should anyone hack the data while it is in transit, processed or stored in the cloud. In addition, some gateways ensure that end users have access to all of the cloud application's features and functions such as the ability to do standard and complex searches on data, send e-mails, and generate reports - even though the sensitive data is no longer in the cloud application.
Applications McKinsey believes should be located on a private cloud include enterprise resource planning (ERP), supply chain management, and custom applications. McKinsey recommends a private deployment option for this class of application largely due to the sensitivity of the data that is processed and stored in them. But private clouds, while a nice improvement over legacy on-premise deployment models, unfortunately cannot approach the TCO and elasticity benefits that true public-cloud SaaS offerings offer enterprises. So, just like with CRM and HCM, the real opportunity for this class of applications is to figure out a model that marries the data security of a private cloud deployment with the unique TCO and elasticity value propositions of public cloud.
Here again Cloud Encryption Gateways can play a critical role. As described earlier, enterprises would be able to move these sensitive applications onto a public cloud resource with a Cloud Encryption Gateway that would directly satisfy any corporate concerns regarding data security, privacy and residency requirements.
Of course, not all cloud encryption gateways are created equal, so please refer to this recent paper, which provides important questions to ask when determining which gateway is the right fit for you or learn more about the PerspecSys Cloud Protection Gateway.
PerspecSys Inc. is a leading provider of cloud data security and SaaS security solutions that remove the technical, legal and financial risks of placing sensitive company data in the cloud. PerspecSys accomplishes this for many large, heavily regulated companies by never allowing sensitive data to leave a customer's network, while maintaining the functionality of cloud applications. Based in Toronto, PerspecSys Inc. is a privately held company backed by investors that include Intel Capital and GrowthWorks.

The major cloud platforms defy a simple, side-by-side analysis. Each of the major IaaS public-cloud platforms offers their own unique strengths and functionality.

Writing & Editing
Writer for projects small and large
Developmental editor
Words invite people in to do business with you, fall in love with your brand, share your passion with their friends, take their coats off and stay for a while… Whatever your endgame—to polish an idea, to write your business website from scratch, or to get a last set of eyes on an almost-perfect piece—this is where to come to find the pen and the polish.
I write and edit web copy, press releases, articles, curricula, children's books, and social media content.
If it's written, I like to get my hands in it.
I've worked with a wide array of clients and would love to help you capture and engage your audience.
I have a passion for web copy, especially helping small and non-profit businesses create compelling websites that clearly tell the story of who they are.
Websites are like inviting someone to your house for coffee. Right away there's a sensory feeling about who lives there. Visitors should want to get to know you, come in to see your studio, ask about your rates, set up an appointment, or get involved with whatever kind of customer relationship you're going for.
My articles have appeared on The Daily Beast and Believe Out Loud.
I've worked with clients to write
- Blog posts
- Educational materials (I have a Masters in education)
- Social media content
- Websites
I also write Momsicle: Something to Suck On, a blog that has over 100,000 hits. It's the little place where I spin on my favorite things: making food, eating food, fighting the powers of evil, becoming one with nature, and raising gremlins.
I do all kinds of editing:
- Developmental editing (working with structure and ideas when writing is in draft form)
- Copyediting (looking at grammar, flow, consistency, and style in polished drafts)
- Proofreading (correcting minor issues before a piece is finally published)
- Fact-checking (using primary sources to make sure information is accurate)
The wonderful thing about editing is that you get to take an awesome prom dress after a hard night of partying, freshen it up with a spot clean, sew up a few holes, steam out the wrinkles, and have it looking spectacular for a black-tie event.
You have the ideas: They just need a little trip to the cleaners.
I've edited web content (web pages and copy, articles, downloadable resources), book chapters, children's books, and press releases–and I am always eager to branch out.
What clients are saying:
Evelyn is fantastic to work with–she's organized, quick, and has a great eye for detail. She also has the ability to capture the right style and tone that a project requires. –Amelia Swabb, Director of Content Development at Sesame Workshop
Regardless of the specific challenge, Evelyn approaches each job with deep commitment, tremendous efficiency, and great good humour. She is a true pleasure to work with, and I look forward to utilizing her skills again in future. –Nancy Later, editor and book packager
Evelyn has a great perspective and unique ideas that help to set us apart from the others. –Chris Pfleiger, owner, True Character Martial Arts
I've worked with national and local companies including Sesame Workshop, The Nature Conservancy, Nancy Later Editorial, Red Tricycle Portland, Kat Jeffrey Nutrition, True Character Martial Arts, Baby Boot Camp Beaverton/Northwest Heights, and Scout's Honor Clothing Company.
Small businesses, non-profits, educational media, and children's media are my passions. Above all, I'm interested in working to help raise your written communications to the next level.
Curious? Here are some snacks to chew on.
Sesame Workshop, Little Discoverers: Big Fun with Science, Math, and More!
Red Tricycle, "3 Kid-Friendly Oregon Wineries" (article)
Red Tricycle, "Ditch the Cereal: Our Favorite Breakfast Food Carts" (article)

Sesame Workshop, We Have the Moves! (proofreader)
Want to find out more or ask about a project? I'm game. I work on an hourly or per-project basis, depending on your needs and budget. And if I can't help you, I can usually point you in the right direction.
There is a real, surprisingly unfrightening person–not a zombie–at the end of this email address.

Twitter @EvelynShoop
In the interest of full disclosure, I should mention that I live in Portland, Oregon, and my love for P-town is as luscious as an overflowing compost bin spinning organic matter into black gold.
Or a micronutrient-rich quart of kale smoothie in nonreactive glass jars.
Or an evergreen tree in Forest Park, filled with bugs for a pileated woodpecker to suck out.
Or a Blue Star buttermilk cake donut dunked in Steven Smith tea.
Or a stadium filled with explosive, tone-deaf soccer fans.
Or a barnacle-covered rock in a tide pool when the frigid water isn't fully back.
But no worries: If you're not from here this won't interfere with our professional relationship. I totally do long-distance.

Comment on: HS2 'confident' over BIM requirements despite mixed picture
Given the lack of choice in the matter, its a surprise that 6% of the supply chain owned up to the fact that they don't use BIM. The fundamental problem is that BIM is designed for complex and constrained buildings not railways across miles. One can have a "digital focus" and pioneer the latest IT techniques without BIM. The idea that BIM is always correct by default, is completely wrong. The greatest procurement failure with HS2, is the effective prevention of small and micro engineering consultants and contractors, especially those which are based in the locality of the actual route.
Comment on: HS2: Payment may depend on BIM work
The evidence is that using BIM reduces free and fair competition from SME suppliers which drives up project costs. It would be "crazy" to use a building information system for a railway. BIM does not solve problems, people do. Better technical design and clearer communication can achieve far more than expensive computer modelling packages. Stephen Gibson www.wilsham.co.uk
Comment on: VIDEO | London's cycling vision
London have enormous potential for cycling and its great to see leaders start to appreciate the multitude of benefits. Back in 1996 I was responsible for the design of the London Cycle Network Phase 1 across Westminster. It was at a time when cycling in the city was viewed as a extreme sport or a dangerous mode of transport, which should be discouraged. Even though the changes were minimal, any removal of parking to make junctions safer was difficult. Stephen Gibson www.wilsham.co.uk
Comment on: U-Turn for the SuDS campaign bus?
Pitts recommendation's were correct and SABs was the correct approach for an industry which has to be forced to change. The irony is that SUDs is typically cheaper than unsustainable methods both in capital and maintenance. Loose talk about "huge cost implications" was never supported by evidence. The vast majority of new housing across the UK is schemes under 10 houses. The new proposals are a waste of time. As you suggest, the only element of hope is that the sewerage companies pass on the real costs of the surface water network to those connected and remove entirely the charges for those with SUDs. At the moment there is an unfair subsidy. That way SUDs can actually be sold as a benefit and increase the house price - just like a solar panel can reduce your electricity bill! Stephen Gibson www.wilsham.co.uk
Comment on: Airports set out revised expansion plans
It could be considered that locating critical infrastructure such as Gatwick Airport on land identified by the EA as at high risk of flooding is questionable. Any suggestion of another runway would need a comprehensive reform of the airports existing flood strategy and a serious investment in sustainable drainage infrastructure. David McMillan non-executive Director of Gatwick Airport Limited states in his report that "actual flooding was significantly more severe than expectations based on flood modelling work. This work should be redone urgently". He stated that "due to heavy rainfall" flood warnings from the EA were not "not seen or acted upon". He also states that "The surface water drainage system is designed to ensure no flooding in airside areas from rainfall delivered by a 1 in 5 year storm." Such systems would not comply even to the building regulations for a domestic dwelling. However, the weather records indicate that rainfalls at Gatwick were far from exceptional, with only 19mm on the 24 Dec 2014. Gatwick Airport's climate change adaption report sums the major flooding and infrastructure problem up as "flooding and water management were identified as the biggest risks to our business". That's certainly correct.

Name: Zacharie T. Hall
Age: 28
Organization: Army Department
Title: Computer Scientist, Communications-Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Center
Nominated for: Volunteering to go to Afghanistan so that he could get a better understanding of what soldiers needed and how technology could help.
First IT mentor: I couldn't possibly choose just one. I consider myself very fortunate to have colleagues who are passionate about technology and supporting a cause that is greater than them.
Latest accomplishment on the job: Working with the soldiers at the combat outpost in Kandahar Province. It was very rewarding to get firsthand feedback from soldiers using what we were working on.
Career highlight: Spending three months at a company-sized outpost in Kandahar Province. Probably the most eye-opening experience of my life.
Your advice for a government IT wannabe: You must not be afraid to challenge the status quo.
What you enjoy most about working in government IT: Most of all, I appreciate being given a pretty large amount of responsibility relatively early in my career. Also, I value the experiences I probably wouldn't have had anywhere else, including working with soldiers who put themselves in harm's way every day.
Three favorite job-related bookmarks or apps: Dropbox.com and the apps Remember the Milk, Catch Notes and Google Calendar. And, of course, my Android phone.

Massive Carrot Harvest Feeds Ohio's Hungry
Watch the video to the left to learn more.
View a complete photo album of the harvest.
Local volunteers from county Farm Bureaus, Chambers of Commerce, home-school students, Soil and Water Conservation District personnel and others have come together just in time for the holiday season to help feed Ohio's hungry.
Volunteers in Swanton, Ohio mechanically harvested and hand packaged more than 180,000 pounds of fresh carrots from an unharvested 10-acre field owned by Ohio carrot farmer Tom O'Neill. O'Neill is a carrot farmer for Campbell's Soups.
With a good crop this year, there was excess left over, so O'Neill decided to put the carrots to good use. The carrots will be donated to 12 food banks around Ohio that are affiliated with the Ohio Association of Second Harvest Food Banks.
"It says farmers are willing to step up and do what they can to make sure there's food available throughout Ohio for the needy this fall," said Ohio Farm Bureau Organization Director Roy Norman.

More vehicles than ever on display at the Detroit auto show are using non-traditional materials - aluminum, carbon fibre, magnesium - as US automakers fight to get vehicle weight down and gas mileage up.
The line between the mass market and premium brands is blurring as automakers vie for attention in a bustling and highly competitive industry, say some analysts.
To look over the roster of racy new and future vehicles at the 2014 North American International Auto Show here, the initial impression is that US, European and Asian automakers want to turn back the clock to a time when performance and speed trumped concerns about energy and the environment.
With automakers' demand for aluminum growing explosively as they seek to improve fuel efficiency, aluminum providers are selling out their automotive capacity almost as fast as they can build new plants, raising the question of whether some car makers could be caught short in the future.

ACC: A.J. Smith
Georgia Tech's Christmas wish list
Posted by ESPN.com's Heather Dinich
Georgia Tech's sports information office got creative and asked a few of the players where they were spending the holiday and what they hope to find under the tree. Some of them are funny, so I thought I'd share it:
Georgia Tech injury report
Posted by ESPN.com's Heather Dinich
- CB Martin Frierson, CB (knee)
- LB Brad Jefferson (dislocated wrist)
- OL A.J. Smith (elbow)
- WR Andrew Smith (shoulder)
- QB Josh Nesbitt (hamstring)
Georgia Tech trying to put it all together while hoping Mississippi State doesn't
Posted by ESPN.com's Heather Dinich
Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson said Mississippi State's defense, which is holding opponents to 96 rushing yards and 11.7 points per game, will be the best they have faced this season. It should be an interesting matchup, considering the Yellow Jackets rank ninth nationally in rushing offense with 263 yards per game.
"They are very good on defense," he said at Tuesday's press conference. "I think sometimes their offense gets overlooked a little bit, because they do have good skill guys -- they have good personnel. They just haven't put it together yet, and hopefully they will wait a week."
Johnson is hoping the opposite for his team, which has had a little trouble holding onto the ball the past few weeks. The Yellow Jackets have fumbled the ball 11 times this year and lost it seven.
Johnson said after watching film of the Virginia Tech game, one fumble was caused because a defender knocked the ball out with his helmet. Another was a timing issue on the option mesh. (That's when quarterback Josh Nesbitt pivots right after the snap and puts the ball in Jonathan Dwyers gut).
"We have to try to do a lot of things better to keep that from happening," Johnson said. "We have to protect better, use better judgment and all of those things. You just keep working on it. You can't get the ball ripped out of your hands, which is what happened to Boston College a couple times. It is just the stuff you work on everyday.
"Clearly if you lose the turnover battle three to nothing you are not going to win any games. We have to do a much better job taking care of it. We had done a good job of getting some up until the last game, but those things usually come in cycles."
The problem is, Mississipi State ranks sixth nationally with five recovered fumbles this season. Auburn fumbled three times in last week's 3-2 win over the Bulldogs and lost all of them.
Georgia Tech injury report:
Three sophomores who started the season opener -- LBs Brad Jefferson (arm/wrist) and Anthony Barnes (shoulder), and WR Demaryius Thomas (mild concussion) -- did not play last
week at Virginia Tech.
Also out of action last week were CB Martin Frierson (knee), senior OL A.J. Smith (elbow) and sophomore WR Correy Earls (hamstring).
Barnes practiced Monday.
Jefferson, Frierson and Smith have been ruled out for the Mississippi State game.
Georgia Tech position battles
Posted by ESPN.com's Heather Dinich
Last week I started going school-by-school to see what position battles remain heading into fall camp. Georgia Tech is next on the alphabetical list. Here are the spots to keep an eye on next month:
Offensive line -- Senior A.J. Smith and junior Cord Howard, the two most-experienced linemen besides Andrew Gardner, missed all of spring practice with injuries. Senior tackle David Brown and redshirt freshman guard Joseph Gilbert started on the right side of the line in the spring. The most intriguing line battle, however, is Omoregie Uzzi, Tech's most highly-touted recruit. Can he start on the offensive line as a true freshman?
Outside linebacker -- Junior Shane Bowen is the only returning starting linebacker, but he sat out all of spring after shoulder surgery. Redshirt freshman Kyle Jackson had an impressive spring while Bowen was out, but Bowen returns in the fall.
Free safety -- Sophomore Dominique Reese, junior Jake Blackwood and possibly even converted receiver Willie White (r-Fr.) are competing for the starting job.
Kicker/Punter -- Sophomore Scott Blair is the best at both, but in a perfect world the coaching staff would prefer that one person not do both duties. A true freshman walk-on, Andy Elakman, could compete with junior Mohamed Yahiaoui for the kicker job if Blair is the punter.
Check back tomorrow for Maryland.
