Danica Patrick Tops The Tweeting Poles
NASCAR rookie Danica Patrick is in the headlines this week praised for her popularity and the attention she's generated for her sponsor Go Daddy!
You may think the majority of this attention comes from the fact she is the only woman currently driving in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, the first, in fact, to ever notch up a pole – at the Daytona 500 of all places — however, despite this hype, Patrick is a media savvy woman well-clued up on the world of social media.
According to Sythesio, a social media marketing company, Patrick's constant tweets and Facebook updates generate more of a buzz for a brand's social media presence than LeBron James, Justin Timberlake and Michael Phelps.
Over a 30-day period, Sythesio took the number of tweets from an endorser who mentions their brand in the same tweet and tabulated the figures.
The Go Daddy! driver generated 12.72 percent of the social media buzz calculated, well over three times the amount of second-place Rihanna and her association with Cover Girl.
Perhaps she feels inclined to do this as Go Daddy! has been a long-time supporter, right back to her IndyCar days. As a fan and a follower of her social media exploits, I think she also just knows how to connect with the public, especially her fans. She often posts recipes under "Danica's Southern Cooking," coming across as really down to earth.
Patrick's media presence recently exploded as she announced her relationship with fellow NASCAR driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr., another rookie, one in which she is competing with for Rookie of the Year.
The NASCAR couple then hit the headlines again when Stenhouse Jr. came into contact with Patrick on track at the Coca-Cola 600. Despite the silent drive home, the couple were spotted enjoying themselves on a boat afterwards.
Patrick's great personality and her NASCAR presence thanks to Go Daddy! have generated over 916,000 followers on Twitter.

Navy and Army War Fund Shield
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Navy and Army War Fund Shield was a competition contested in the Spring of 1918, the aim of this competition was to raise money for the footballers and their families who fought in World War I. The teams that participated in this tournament were all from the Glasgow and Clydeside area.
- Celtic 2 - 1 Queen's Park
1Not all results were recorded and known
- Celtic 2 - 0 Clydebank
- Rangers 1 - 3 Greenock Morton
- Celtic 1 - 0 Greenock Morton
Although Celtic officially won the competition the trophy was not presented to them as it was not ready. The competition was supposed to be an annual event but since war had ended the competition was never played again. There is no evidence of Celtic ever being presented with a trophy.

Attractive and virile stud Justin is back, and once again he's picked himself up a horny dicksucking bottom who can't wait to get reamed in the ass. Austin, his fuck toy for the day, has got long hair and a slightly receding hairline - and is about to get his butt ruined by Justin's massive pole! Although Austin loves to get it in the ass, he is also quite tender so he wants Justin to cum quick, sucking him to the point of cumming before he let's Justin do him in the ass. However, he doesn't know that Justin is an expert stud with perfect control of his ejaculatory powers - he's going to give it to this ass whore long and deep!

Mutual Destruction
In 'The Slaves of Solitude,' London Boardinghouse Tenants Engage in a Battle of Words
Enid Roach fought World War II in the dining room of her suburban London boardinghouse.
On one front, she was engaged in a battle of words with another lodger, Mr. Thwaites, a bully who needled her relentlessly under cover of polite conversation. On a second front, she was attacking, and being attacked by, her former friend, Vicki Kugelmann, a German native who had lived most of her life in England and now occupied the room next to Miss Roach's.
Are there topics or authors you would like to see explored in Readback? Write to Cynthia Crossen at firstname.lastname@example.com
Almost all of the action in Patrick Hamilton's "The Slaves of Solitude," published in 1947, takes place in the Rosamund Tea Rooms, where tea was no longer served. Miss Roach, a 39-year-old "spinster" had lost her previous rooms in Kensington to the first blitz. Now she wanted to live somewhere unlikely to be bombed. In many ways she was lucky: She had a job -- at a publishing company -- a roof over her head, three meals a day and the occasional pink gin cocktail.
But in the small, confined community of the Rosamund Tea Rooms, the tenants were replicating in microcosm what was happening on Europe's battlefields: mutual destruction. Their weapons were insinuations and tittle-tattle, and under ordinary circumstances, one or another of the antagonists would have surrendered and moved out. In 1943, that was impossible. The little band was stuck together, day after dreary, nerve-racking, soul-crushing day.
This situation, oddly gripping and often funny, is like Jane Austen writing black humor. Mr. Thwaites, whom Miss Roach describes as "president in hell," is the quintessential blowhard with exactly enough brains -- and not an ounce more -- to be smartly cruel. Mr. Thwaites loved boardinghouses because "such places, with the timid old women they contained, were hunting grounds for his temperament -- wonderfully suited and stimulating to his peculiar brand of loquacity and malevolence."
In Miss Roach, he sees an ideal quarry. Meek, conventional and easily embarrassed, Miss Roach can neither fight nor take flight. Every meal is her own little Normandy, she in her bunker, Mr. Thwaites storming the beach. Mr. Thwaites never stops watching for an opening. Because of rationing, each guest got his or her own butter and sugar in separate containers, "which caused Miss Roach further self-consciousness and difficulty. For Mr. Thwaites had his eye on every cut she made at her butter and every spoonful she took of her sugar."
Her other antagonist, Vicki Kugelmann, is one of those women who use other women as levers -- tools to advance themselves in the eyes of the world, especially men, and then dispose of. The fact that she is a native German adds to her menace, at least from Miss Roach's chary perspective. When Mr. Thwaites and Ms. Kugelmann join forces against Miss Roach, violence is inevitable.
Outside the rooming house, the action of "The Slaves of Solitude" takes place in pubs. "The blitz, with its attendant misery, peril, chaos and informality, had introduced Miss Roach and many other respectable, middle-class women to the habit of going to bars and drinking." Miss Roach's American suitor, Lieutenant Pike, was, if not an alcoholic, nosing eagerly down that road. Often when she went out with Lieutenant Pike, Miss Roach got drunk, too.
The author, Mr. Hamilton, had only to look in a mirror to study the very model of a modern alcoholic. In his later years, Mr. Hamilton was described by J.B. Priestley, the English writer and critic, as "an unhappy man who needed whiskey as a car needs petrol." Mr. Hamilton drank himself to death in 1962, at the age of 58.
In his prime, however, he had an illustrious career. Although his father and mother were unstable and feckless, and couldn't afford to send their son to college, he published his first novel at the age of 21. He wrote two enormously remunerative stage plays, "Gas Light" and "Rope," both of which he sold to Hollywood. During his lifetime, he was compared with writers like Evelyn Waugh and Graham Greene.
While those novelists are still widely read today, Mr. Hamilton is unknown except to a small cult. Why? In our culture, "'classic' status is chiefly conferred by academic endorsement," writes the English novelist David Lodge in an introduction to "The Slaves of Solitude." "Hamilton's work does not fit easily into the categories of academic literary criticism and literary history."
That's the reader's loss. Once described by a critic as "a supremely odd fish," Mr. Hamilton nonetheless limned the whole human heart at a table for four.

A framework for comprehensive auditing of applications involved in business processes in distributed application landscapes, including local, distributed and collaborative audit, is based on the concept of a collaborative "audit warehouse" that enables a central, tool-supported audit of cross-enterprise business processes. The interface for the audit data warehouse is defined in an intermediate format language with verification capabilities, such as XML (Extensible Markup Language). Applications in effect write audit data to audit data pools in the warehouse, e.g., in XML format transferred via http over the Internet. Alternatively, data is pulled from the applications by the warehouse automatically or on command. In one preferred paradigm individual enterprises have their own central audit data warehouses, each collecting data from applications both within and outside of the enterprise that owns the warehouse, in order to aggregate audit data for a given business process spanning potentially several distinct enterprises.

This application claims priority to U.S. Application Ser. No. 60/386,839, filed on Jun. 5, 2002 by Sachar Paulus and Tom Schroeer, entitled "e-Business Security Architecture." The present application is also related to a companion application entitled "Authorization Mechanism," filed by Cristina Buchholz, (application Ser. No. 10/372,030, filed Feb. 21, 2003 on the same day as this application, which companion application in its entirety is incorporated by reference herein.
This invention relates generally to the information technology security and regulatory compliance field, and more particularly to audits of automated business processes.
Business processes need to be audited periodically for legal, contractual and security reasons. Certification and accreditation assure trust by participants and oversight agencies alike. Regular audit is essential to security to insure that policies, however well documented, are actually carried out. Auditing business processes involves checking for compliance with pre-established procedures as well as for proper authorization of the entities or people who executed or had access to the various elements of the process and then analyzing and recording the results of these inquiries in some meaningful way. If the entire business process is carried out on a single software application or an integrated set of distributed applications from a single source, i.e., a single software company, the audit process is reasonably straightforward because it can be done within the context of a consistent set of formats and procedures that are established and vouched for by the software producer. Audit software exists today both at the level of the individual application and also at the business system level of an integrated set of distributed applications from a single manufacturer, for example, SAP's "Audit Information System." However, business processes often span several applications from different manufacturers, each employing its own idiosyncratic procedures, nomenclature and formats. In this cross-application corporate landscape, performing a business process audit poses unique challenges that have not been met.
The problem is exacerbated where a given business process to be audited spans not only several different applications from different software providers but also multiple collaborating entities or enterprises, e.g., distinct but commonly-owned enterprises within a single corporate family environment, distinct noncommonly-owned corporations operating in a strategic alliance, partners in a joint venture or a supply chain including both suppliers and customers of a company with respect to a given product line. While these separate entities may all be involved in interrelated aspects of a single business process, e.g., a sales transaction, each entity may nonetheless constitute an independent regime from the security standpoint, e.g., having its own legacy controls and at least the potential capability of independent control, i.e. change, of the formats and procedures for its own information technology to suit its own perceived needs.
The only way in which cross-application business process audits can be carried out today in such an environment is to conduct audits of each application within each entity on an individual basis, taking into account the current respective set of applicable controls, procedures, formats, etc. and then to collect the necessary information for a particular business process from the various applications. An example of the collection approach is exemplified by Consul's eAudit" which is designed to collect and consolidate data from different sources. With existing tools, however, it is virtually impossible to trace and analyze cross-application business processes on systems provided by different manufacturers. Where the systems are operated by disparate enterprises within a single corporation or by different collaborating companies, it is even more difficult to coordinate and analyze the information from the individual audits in a way that warrants the trust of those who rely on the integrity of the business process as a whole.
Meanwhile, every day more and more business processes are moving to the Internet beyond the secure borders of in-house networks and intranets. As companies collaborate more frequently in e-business, open networks and cross-company business transactions are increasingly replacing monolithic, closed systems. Disparate applications maintained in different companies are being virtually extended beyond the secure confines of their respective in-house networks and combined to form efficient Web services. This type of collaboration obviously requires companies to exchange data beyond these secure environments. But by doing so, the collaborating enterprises surrender their unique control over the business process that enabled audit systems to thoroughly check the integrity of the system against established, well understood internal standards.
The invention provides a framework for comprehensive auditing of applications and business processes in distributed application landscapes, including local, distributed and collaborative audit. The solution is based on the concept of a central or collaborative "audit warehouse" that performs a central, tool-supported audit of cross-enterprise business processes. One aspect of the invention is a unified set of standards for an audit data interface. Another aspect is identification of subprocess steps and the aggregation of audit documents for individual subprocess steps, which are carried out by different applications operated by different enterprises.
In one aspect of the invention, an auditing method for capturing audit data from various applications in a collaborative business process spanning more than one distinct enterprise, comprises establishing a central audit warehouse under either shared or third party control or under the control of one enterprise or of one group of interrelated enterprises, as a repository for audit data from the various applications both within the one enterprise or the one group of interrelated enterprises and also in distinct enterprises associated with a given business process. In this way audit data from applications associated with each other by way of a collaborative business process, e.g., supply chain, can all share data with a central warehouse despite the fact that the applications are running in distinct enterprises, not necessarily under common ownership or control.
The interface with the data warehouse can be defined in an intermediate format language with verification capabilities, such as XML (Extensible Markup Language).
Audit data is transferred to the warehouse from an application using a standardized format, preferably a compliant XML specification for audit data, via an interface to the first audit warehouse using a predefined communication protocol, e.g., http over the Internet. The received audit data is sorted and stored by the audit warehouse according to its association with the given business process or subprocess steps of a given business process so that audit data relating to the given business process can be retrieved together to check for compliance with required procedures.
In one paradigm instead of enterprises sharing a single common audit data warehouse, each enterprise has its own audit data warehouse which collects audit data from applications not only within the same enterprise (or group of interrelated enterprises, e.g., under common ownership) but also from distinct external enterprises via a preferably restricted interface to avoid compromising secure data.
In one preferred embodiment of the invention, audit data is extracted at the application level in a native format different from said standardized format and then converted to the corresponding standardized format for the type of audit data and transferred to a central audit warehouse. The receiving and processing o the audit data is accomplished via a collection interface for the central warehouse, e.g., including an XML processor. The transfer modalities are push and store whereby the applications themselves decide when to write data to a central audit data pool managed by the warehouse, pull and store whereby the warehouse dictates when data is to be actively collected from a given application or by an ad hoc inquiry, e.g., a request placed by an analyst during an audit of the business process.
The stored data in the warehouse can be accessed either by an internal interface, e.g., for periodic system checks and runtime alerts, or by an external interface manipulated by an audit analyzer. The audit warehouse can then provide the relevant data in response to online queries at the time of an audit. The internal interface can interact directly or indirectly with the enterprise applications, even remote ones, via a restricted interface.
A collaborative auditing framework, according to the invention, can be used to establish auditability within applications, and an integrated audit warehouse can be used to interface with an exchange infrastructure in a web services architecture as part of an overall electronic security architecture providing comprehensive, network-based security for collaborative e-business.
This comprehensive audit framework allows users to perform detailed checks on existing security mechanisms to ensure the ongoing integrity of business transactions and data. The security infrastructure can establish a collaborative framework for auditing distributed processes in a variety of scenarios. A distributed audit can be used to audit intra-enterprise processes, and a collaborative audit can be used to audit inter-enterprise collaborative processes.
The audit warehouse at the center of the collaborative audit framework can interface with a web application server, as well as portal and exchange infrastructures. Distributed applications and components can provide various data to the audit warehouse, including document numbers, document types, document content, user identifiers, roles, and relevant security data. The collaborative audit framework can also specify and snapshot document flow through the audit warehouse, as well as the proper assignment of steps and sub-steps in business processes.
The audit warehouse provides a system for carrying out ad hoc audits as well as for periodic spot checks, system checks or scheduled reports, data protection and automatic runtime alerts for certain violations. Because of the audit warehouse's inherent capability to monitor data over the long term, it can assist in alerting system administrators to data that are out of normative boundaries for historical data of the same type.
The details of one or more embodiments of the invention are set forth in the accompanying drawings and the description below. Other features, objects, and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the description and drawings, and from the claims.
Like reference symbols in the various drawings indicate like elements.
The invention deals with audit systems for collaborative business processes. The term business process is intended to include, any type of procedure in which electronic records, commands, requests or data of any type are passed between users or entities for any purpose in any field, including business, financial, industrial, manufacturing, healthcare, educational, contracting, permitting, etc., in either the public or private sector. The term collaborative business, as used herein, is meant to encompass cross-enterprise or inter-company business processes, such as supply chain management.
As the business world moves toward Web Services these cross-enterprise systems present unique challenges for auditing. However, the audit challenge actually begins within the individual enterprise where competing interests vie for primacy on the IT landscape.
Both IT security systems and their auditability are challenged by the competing interests of executive functions within the business enterprise. The chief executive officer (CEO) is responsible for developing and executing the business model. The chief information officer (CIO) has the overall responsibility for security administration, i.e., providing secure systems that work to insure secure data. The chief financial officer (CFO) needs "transparent control," or the ability to understand and manipulate the financial data upon which the business is based, and which also happens to be the subject of IT security. In directing and hopefully improving the business, the CEO has to be able to enact changes, which directly or indirectly impact existing security systems, possibly compromising them. Changes ordered by the CEO also can threaten the open transparency of the enterprise IT system as secure systems undergo modification. Tightening of security by the CIO threatens transparent control by replacing systems, once optimized for control, with new systems. The CIO's orderly IT security administration is challenged by the CEO's need for change, and the CFO's need for transparent control. The CEO's need for change is constrained by the CIO's ability to accommodate modifications while maintaining tested security systems and maintaining or raising the level transparent control demanded by the CFO. The CFO's transparent control objective is thus also limited by the CIO's mission to maintain secure systems, and the CEO's requirement for change.
Auditable system landscapes are an essential prerequisite for e-business. After creating and implementing a comprehensive policy to ensure secure processes, a company then needs to prove that all of its business applications and processes—particularly those involving security mechanisms and authorization concepts—were followed and work as designed. This is especially important in cross-company scenarios, such as virtual exchanges, or when working with an application service provider.
Companies must be able to check the security of not only their own architecture, but also those of their business partners using technical revision procedures, because contracts and laws often demand proof of a secure environment. Comprehensive auditing frameworks that transcend individual businesses are thus destined to become an essential tool for ensuring audit-proof processes in collaborative scenarios.
Auditing Closed and Open Systems
In a closed system, the IT organization is usually responsible for all information security issues. This includes configuring authentication and authorization solutions according to the business needs defined by the applications. For example, it is often necessary to implement—and prove—a segregation-of-duties approach within the context of a specific application. In closed systems, a reporting framework that collects information about authorizations, roles, and the data related to users or processes generally provides sufficient auditing capabilities.
With distributed processing, as shown in the middle pane of
As open IT landscapes replace closed systems, processes are no longer limited to one application server and may flow through the entire IT environment. In situations like this, the auditing capabilities of each system—even sophisticated ones—no longer suffice. System interaction in collaborative processes results in even greater complexity. In addition, some components of the open landscape may contain sensitive information that belongs to different organizations. In virtual marketplaces, exchange infrastructures, or application service provider scenarios, this may even include data from competitors. As data in health care, supply chain, banking and financial service businesses, for example, become more dependent on interaction with other business entities over the Internet from a transactional standpoint, e.g., Web Services, the auditing capabilities of each individual system—even sophisticated ones—, internally challenged as they are, will no longer suffice.
Digital signatures, which guarantee nonrepudiation for documents exchanged across company boundaries, for example, orders or acknowledgements, can be an effective means to prove the integrity of business processes in heterogeneous environments. Queuing functions, such as those of SAP Exchange Infrastructure, can also provide possibilities for physically decoupling application components and guarantee that messages are delivered exactly once.
These options, however, solve only part of the auditing challenge in collaborative business environments. For example, SAP Exchange Infrastructure makes it possible to deploy a broad diversity of highly heterogeneous components from different vendors and various technology environments. This enables efficient and integrated business processes, but it also renders traditional auditing procedures virtually impossible. The data needed for the review of a single process can be stored in disparate systems on different platforms—and often not even within the same organization.
For a more comprehensive auditing solution, open auditing frameworks must be established. These frameworks allow applications in cross-enterprise business processes to take auditability into account from the very start, and they grant analysis tools access to this process-oriented information. Requirements for auditing frameworks include the ability to audit processes in distributed application landscapes and to perform a comprehensive audit of various applications and systems. For example, open auditing frameworks should ideally be usable for external or internal audits, system checks, and data protection checks. The radical solution is to divorce the audit function from the individual enterprises to the extent possible and replace it with a separately maintained entity, the audit warehouse, with a standardized, universal interface that all enterprises with collaborative businesses can share.
The Integration of an Audit Warehouse
In an environment where a number of organizations share services and information, it must be possible to audit all applications and systems that process business tasks. An example of the sources for an audit warehouse is illustrated in
SAP� Solution Manager, a tool that graphically maps a solution landscape and monitors core business processes, including all integrated systems, contains information about the components implemented in each business scenario. It is responsible for system, application, and business process monitoring. The process information stored in SAP Solution Manager can also be retrieved by the audit warehouse for auditing purposes. Thus in this case rather than just applications sending audit data to the audit warehouse, the warehouse would make use of system wide collection and monitoring available within a given enterprise.
As illustrated in
The applications must provide the Audit Warehouse with the information that makes this overview possible. The applications themselves must provide the audit warehouse with the necessary information, including document number, type and content, user ID, and role, as well as other data relevant for security checks.
As shown in
The trend toward web services raises the bar in the auditability challenge. With Web Service systems like Microsoft's Net Passport, intermediaries are implicated in the audit, as shown in
As shown in
An XML-based audit data interface provides an open nonproprietary vehicle for transferring audit related data that can be supported by all applications. Extensible Mark-up Language (XML) is a set of rules for structuring data in a document that can be exchanged over the Web. XML is a subset of an early mark-up language SGML used for technical documentation. XML's particular aim is to simplify SGML and make it compatible with the Web like HTML. But unlike HTML the tags and attributes within XML can all be user-defined as desired, not just for browsers but for any target program. XML is an open standard developed and maintained by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). A copy of the current specification for XML 1.0 can be found at http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml, which is a stable HTML document offered by WC3 specifically to be used as reference material or cited as a normative reference from another document. The XML standard is a set of strict rules that specify well-formed XML documents, involving tags, namespaces and attributes, etc. These variable parameters give meaning in the context of the target program to data contained within what is actually a text document, one that, as we shall see below, can be visualized with any word processing system. An XML document's purpose, however, is to be parsed and processed by an XML processor that tests the document for validity and sorts out and conditions the data in the XML document and, for example, feeds it to an associated application. Various types of XML documents are the subject of specifications adopted by W3C, which would be the ultimate aim of the XML audit interface described here. The specifications are expressed in terms of a document template description or DTD.
Thus, as shown in
The paradigm of
Another model that may be more workable in practice is to have each enterprise requiring audit capability own and maintain its own data warehouse, as shown in
The advantage of the proprietary collaborative audit data warehouse paradigm is that the interface with the applications that are part of the same enterprise that owns a given warehouse can be unrestricted. Data from application C in foreign enterprise Y can be transferred to enterprise X's warehouse 16 via a restricted interface if desired, so that proprietary data of enterprise Y is not accessible to enterprise X. Likewise, audit data from applications A and B of enterprise X can be transferred to enterprise Y's warehouse 16 a via a restricted interface, if desired, so that proprietary or sensitive data of enterprise Y is not compromised. Thus, the two audit data streams from application C, for example, are shown as distinct message streams even though they carry essentially the same audit data for the same business process. They are differentiated in the system of
As shown in
Meanwhile inside the audit warehouse 16, as shown in
The collection interface 22, shown in more detail in
The data warehouse 16 also provides two distinct types of output interfaces shown in
The data collected in the audit warehouse can be analyzed by standard analysis programs to perform the checks, such as the Audit Information System or SAP� Business Information Warehouse (SAP� BW). The medium through which this occurs is the analysis interface for external audit 50, shown in more detail in
The audit framework also works across company boundaries. It is sometimes required that participants in a business chain (like suppliers and outsourcers for example) are audited together.
The audit framework works in two scenarios:
A. During normal operation, it transmits information to external partners through a restricted interface, this being useful for detecting fraud and bottlenecks across companies. This would correspond to the internal analysis interface; and
B. When auditing the business chain, it correlates the information through an unrestricted interface, so that the aggregation then happens for all the process steps.
XML DTD Definition
The XML format for the audit warehouse interface offers portability and standardization. The portability of the XML standard is attributable to the fact that it was designed to be platform, database, and operating system independent. The standardization is found in a common set of standards established and maintained by an open committee for syntax, semantics and processing of all XML rev. 1.0 compliant documents on the Web. In addition, XML exhibits flexibility, usability and scalability. XML documents do not have any inherent constraints regarding size or content. The tags and attributes are defined by the warehouse system architects. Ideally agreement will be found one single set of XML compliant specifications for audit warehouses of the type described here.
There will be of course several types of XML documents involved in the warehouse: one class for the collection interface and one for the external audit reports, i.e. input and output. However, the specifications should be consistent and in many cases identical for both types of XML documents. As a guide and example for XML specification, the DTD for the audit report format is presented below.
(1) Applications (See
(2) Procedures (or policies—functional checklist) (See
(3) Provisions (or non-functional checklist) (see
(4) Data (
Each of these four attributes is developed as follows. As shown in
As shown in
The provisions part of the audit XML, as shown in
(1) operational: training, user manual availability;
(2) duty: relevant roles and responsibilities;
(3) legal: legal constraints on systems; and
(4) financial: financial constraints on systems.
Finally, the database part of the audit XML definition is laid out in
An example of the encoding of an XML DTD for the audit report is provided below.
A number of embodiments of features of the invention have been described. Nevertheless, it will be understood that various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. For example, other document types besides XML can be employed. The transfer of audit data to the warehouse can be administered by and done under the control of a central agency, if desired in a particular setting. While the examples show communication over the Internet via htttp, other communication media, networks and protocols, e.g., SOAP, are embraced by the basic concept. Accordingly, other embodiments are within the scope of the following claims.

AP source: Inaugural ball to feature Lady Gaga
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - Watch out Beyonce and Katy Perry. There's another diva set to perform during the inauguration festivities- Lady Gaga.
A person familiar with the inauguration tells The Associated Press that the pop star will perform at Tuesday's ball for President Barack Obama's staffers. The source spoke on condition of anonymity because that person wasn't authorized to publicly reveal the information.
The staff ball is typically a private affair. During the last inauguration festivities, Jay-Z reportedly performed for that event.
According to one attendee, Jay-Z rapped a riff on one of his hit songs, "99 Problems but George Bush Ain't One," to the delight of the throngs of young staffers who worked to elect Obama in 2008.

7th Annual Education Across the Americas Conference
Association of Latin American Students (ALAS)
Friday, April 3, 2009 at 9:00 AM - Saturday, April 4, 2009 at 10:00 PM (EDT)
The Association of Latin American Students (ALAS) is pleased to host its 7th Annual Education Across the Americas Conference. The conference will be held April 3-4, 2009 at Teachers College, Columbia University.
For over 7 years, ALAS' annual conference has sought to create a space for analysis, dialogue, and exchange in relation to the complex realities of education in the Americas. Throughout our history, the conference's objective has been to provide a unique opportunity for scholars who work on issues of education in Latin America to share and discuss their policy, academic, and research concerns. Latin America, however, is far from a homogenous and monolithic landscape of social, political, economic, and cultural practices. The diversity of contexts that characterizes Latin America requires educators, researchers, and policymakers alike to consider the multiplicity of experiences and perspectives when examining education as social phenomena.
This year's theme--Interpreting Realities, Negotiating Perspectives, and Exploring Complexities--challenges us to rethink and reframe our approach to the study of education in the Americas. More specifically, it seeks to address the current challenges and developments in Latin America that have significant implications for the education of children, adolescents, and adults--ranging from very specific and situated classroom environments all the way to national and transnational policy-making and policy-borrowing.

A Secret You Need To Learn About Your Core Values
I'm a big fan of the importance of having a clear mission and vision for your firm. I find that firm's who create a clear vision have an advantage over the rest of the industry.
There's a secret I want to share with you. It's really a pretty simple one and one that you might just hit your head and say, "Duh, I knew that."
The secret is……your mission and vision for your firm MUST come from your core values. The question you might want to ask is how do I find out about my core values. Read on and I'll share what I've learned with you.
Let's start with my new favorite word.
I love words. Sometimes the words live a little bit in the world of jargon. And, this is one of those words.
My favorite word is about simplifying what happens in your life and business. It's how you get a guiding light for what your firm is all about. The word is minessence.
Minessence is all about making the complicated simple. It's really what I hope you're doing in your practice with your clients. I'm going to try to do the same with you in this blog post.
Think about all of the things that go into your values.
Too often we start down the road of mission and vision and we haven't started at the beginning. In my world, the beginning is all about understanding the values that drive your life.
We have a process where we help people like you get very clear on their values. I find this extraordinarily useful both in my own life and the lives of the clients I work with. It's where we always start if we're going to create something that's useful and lasting.
Do you have a system that will allow you to figure out what's important in your life?
My friends at the Minessence Group have a wonderful saying. It's "Unfolding Meaning Through Values." This is a great starting place. It's a systematized process that allows you to answer a few questions and then think about the values that are important in your life.
Once we have the raw material that are your values we take time to have an in-depth conversation about what drives you, excites you and makes you want to get up in the morning.
We talk about the values that move you forward and those that hold you back. It's important that we combine both the values that make you want to get up in the morning and the values that scare the heck out of you.
When we look at both, we make sure values that could hold you back don't. When we've put the values to bed that don't serve you, we then have the time and mind space to focus on the values that drive you forward. The values that drive you forward make you into a world-class provider of services for your clients.
People in your firm need to be clear about what you and your firm's values are.
When you've identified the values that rule your life you're now in a great position to work on the mission and vision you have for your firm. You can share information with your staff about what's really important.
Your staff now gets the opportunity to join your vision for what your firm can be. You might even find that a staff member or two decides that where you want to go isn't the same place they do. When you allow your staff to opt in or out you're building a firm that strongly identifies and helps clients live the values you believe are important.
Your clients get to opt in or out.
I bet you've had clients that just never seemed to mesh with what you're trying to do. I also bet that those clients take up an inordinate amount of your time.
Wouldn't it be nice if your clients had a way to opt in to your firm, just like your staff does? You'll find that being clear about what's important to you is something your clients will love. Yes, you'll lose a few along the way. More importantly, the clients that stay with you will know why they love your firm and what your firm does that they really value.
It's all about opting in and not adjusting what you believe.
This is the key. Once you understand your values, you're going to find out it's all about opt in, not just show up and hope. This means that when you're clear about your values both staff and clients will know what you're all about. It means that you'll get the right clients and those you shouldn't serve will go someplace else.
The good news is that there's always plenty of clients to serve. It's finding the right ones that keep you excited and not causing burnout that's important.
I would love to talk with you about our values process. It's something I hold dear to my heart. Click on the button below to choose a date and time that works best for you. I can promise you that the time we spend together will be worthwhile.

The First Step In Reputation Management – Be Trustworthy
It really comes down to trust. If you're authentic and you develop a great reputation it's because you've worked hard on developing a high level of trust between you and the stakeholders you serve.
At the same time developing a great reputation is something that takes a lot of hard work, planning and thinking about the message you want to deliver. I'm hoping that you want to be authentic in who your firm is. If you do, you'll be seen as unique as well.
Here are some things I've learned about this subject:

In the wealth management world we spend a lot of time thinking about how we can attract new clients. We all know the power of referrals or as I like to think about them introductions to potential clients. It's a proven and powerful way of creating new clients.

I spend a lot of time wondering why more employers don't think about their employees' happiness at work. We expect our employees to treat our clients with the utmost respect and always provide great service. At the same time almost no employer I know gives a second thought to how happy their employees are.

1999 Ford F-250 Super Duty Q&A
1999 Ford F-250 Super Duty Question: How much does it cost to have the torque converter replaced?
The ford dealer said the 4wd ford F250 super duty with automatic transmission needed to have the torque converter replaced he says this repair is $2000.00 I have had other parts replaced by this shop and overall I am happy with the service how long can I expect to drive the truck after the repair has been completed? What sort of warranty is this type of repair given? I had a airconditioner clutch replaced by the same shop last year and that repair has already broken down can I expect the torque converter replacement will breakdown in one year? - Lampe
2 Answers
Answer 1
i would never just replace the torque converter without rebuilding the entire trans. the material from the bad converter contaminates the trans and that will contaminate the new converter leading to another failure. how long, my opinion is not long at all. I would not even give a warranty on that repair either. 2000 is a bit high for this repair. Roy - mastertech6371
Answer 2
Very much agreed with Roy. Get a remanufactured Ford automatic transmission - the 4R100 this truck has is best obtained remanufactured...with it's 3 year 100,000 mile warranty that I believe Ford now puts on it, it's a great deal. The price point is not terribly more than your $2,000 for just the torque converter. If they quote you high, they can probably be negotiated down a bit too. - DaveJHM
