CEOs With Gay Sons Champion Change
Stephen Mack remembers the conversation well. He had traveled to his parents' home for Thanksgiving and was talking with his father, John Mack, the former chairman and chief executive of Morgan Stanley. The elder Mack mentioned something about the financial services firm that was "kind of confidential," Stephen said.
Stephen steeled himself and began, "'While we're on the topic of sharing things…" Then, he told his father he was gay.
Learning that a child is gay prompts change in any families. But when Dad is a CEO, the revelation can have effects far outside the family unit. Bosses who thought infrequently, if ever, about lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender issues have a new perspective on diversity initiatives at their businesses, and sometimes become activists–in a similar way, research has shown male CEOs with young daughters often champion pay equity for women. Drawing on firsthand experiences with their children and their children's gay peers, businessmen like Mack say they increasingly take a more personal view on inclusive workplace policies.
Three pairs of fathers and sons shared their stories Thursday at the fourth annual Out on the Street leadership summit for the finance industry in New York. The day-long event also included sessions about gay professional athletes and tracking diversity in the workplace along with a keynote speech from Gen. David Petraeus.
Dan O'Connell, the founder and CEO of private equity firm Vestar Capital Partners, said that before finding out about his son Jared's sexuality, he was less than warm on the topic of homosexuality.
"At best, I was indifferent to ambivalent," he said. "At worst, probably insensitive."
He said he's now more accepting. "It probably should have happened a long time ago," he said. "Better late than never."
Paul Singer, the founder and chief of hedge fund Elliott Management Corp., used data to describe his evolution. Before his son came out to him, Singer described himself as being "a solid 2.1" on the 10-point scale of supporting LGBT issues. "Conversations with Andrew brought me quickly to a 5.5 to six and I think I've just risen from there," he said.
On a trip to Europe years ago, Singer burst into his son's hotel room one evening and asked him, "Are you gay?" He said the question came with "a good degree of nervousness and fear."
Singer said he was "somewhere between oblivious and in denial" about his son's sexuality, while Mack said he had an inkling about Stephen's secret.
Growing up as an athlete in a small town in North Carolina, Mack said he harbored "strong" anti-gay views. Moving to New York, marrying and having children made him less rigid, he said. When Stephen divulged his secret in the study, the former banking CEO said he replied, "'Are you happy?' That's all I care about."
Mack also recalled the beginning of his Wall Street career, when finance was "a men's club." He said he's now convinced that companies need to be more inclusive of sexuality and gender. "We need to have a level playing field and we're not there yet,"
Some of the executives have embraced pro-gay politics; Singer, for example, has tried to push the Republican party to support gay rights. Mack, meanwhile, has widened his social circle.
"If you asked me today — 'Who do I want to hang out with?' — it's his friends," he said of Stephen, a technology consultant. "I have nice friends and they're fine, but I want to hang out with his friends."
"He is at every level the son I wanted," he added.

Despite a recommendation of county jail time and community control by the prosecution, Washington County Common Pleas Judge Ed Lane sentenced a former Marietta man to two-and-a-half years in prison Thursday over the discovery of child pornography images on his computer.
Richard A. Hill, 39, of Millfield in Athens County, was sentenced after pleading guilty to a third-degree felony count of attempted pandering of sexually oriented material involving a minor. As part of the plea agreement, the prosecution reduced the charge from a second-degree felony and Hill agreed to forfeit electronic devices seized when Washington County sheriff's deputies executed a search warrant at his former residence in Marietta's Putnam Place Apartments in June.
Trying to hold back tears, Hill told the judge he was "deeply sorry for what I've done."

EVAN BEVINS The Marietta Times
"My bad deeds caused a lot of hurt to a lot of people," he said. "I brought shame upon my family. I lost the respect of my community, my career and the love of my life."
Deputies received a tip last year that led them to investigate Hill and eventually obtain a search warrant. A sheriff's deputy said he located on Hill's computer multiple images of children engaged in sex acts with other children and adults.
Hill's attorney, Dennis Sipe, said his client was using a file-sharing system that allows people to view images and videos and listen to music.
"The anonymity the Internet gives us allows us to look at and see things that we really have no business looking at," he said.
But because the file-sharing system stored some of the images on Hill's computer, his browsing habits weren't as anonymous as he'd hoped.
Sipe noted Hill did not produce any of the images, and investigators found no local children in them.
"My client didn't take any pictures, he didn't advertise them out in the world," outside of agreeing to participate in the file-sharing, the attorney said.
Assistant Washington County Prosecutor Allison Cauthorn said that based on Hill's lack of a prior criminal record and his cooperation with investigators she would recommend a sentence that included time in the county jail and five years of strict community control limiting Hill's access to online resources. Lane noted the lack of factors indicating recidivism and Hill's remorse in the pre-sentence investigation report, but said the nature of the crime did not make him think Hill would be "amenable to community control."
"I have a lot of mixed feelings about this case," Lane said. "It wasn't just a one-time thing. It appears to be an extensive type of involvement."
While Sipe did not label his client's activity as extensive, he said after the hearing it was not a single, isolated viewing.
Lane also noted the images themselves have impact beyond their presence on Hill's computer.
"Every one of those little girls is somebody's child," he said.
Lane sentenced Hill to 30 months in prison, six months shy of the maximum possible, to be followed by five years of community control. He will also be labeled a Tier II sex offender, meaning he will have to register his address with authorities every six months for 25 years.
Hill did not show any immediate reaction to the sentence, although his arms and hands were trembling and he had more difficulty maintaining his composure as the hearing continued.
Hill was immediately taken into custody by sheriff's deputies. He will receive credit on his sentence for two days already served in the county jail.

HAYWARD -- The three young revelers killed in a shooting outside a San Leandro warehouse party in 2011 were victims of a premeditated "massacre" by East Bay gang members, a prosecutor told jurors Monday at the trial for three men charged in the triple slaying.
"Each of the victims was helpless ... they didn't stand a chance," deputy district attorney Jimmie Wilson said during his opening statement. "The victims in this case were massacred."
The shooting in the early morning of Oct. 2, 2011, killed Shanice Kiel, 19, of San Francisco, Leneasha Northington, 16, of San Leandro, and Joshua Alford, 23, of Oakland.
They were sitting in a parked Ford Explorer sport-utility vehicle after attending a "tattoo party" in a warehouse at Gardco Industrial Park at Alvarado Street and Aladdin Avenue. Three others were wounded when gunmen walked next to and in front of the SUV and opened fire on seven people sitting inside.
Accused of the killings are Paul Arthur Stevenson, 22, of Oakland; Anthony Alvin Perry II, 23, of Oakland; and Aaron Isaiah Stewart, 21, of Fairfield -- members of an East Bay street gang called the Mob Squad, said Wilson.
A fourth defendant, Stanley Leon Turner, 20, of Oakland, is expected to plead guilty to a lesser charge and will testify against the three men in exchange for a lighter sentence, Wilson said.
The prosecutor said the defendants wanted to shoot Alford because they didn't like the way he and his friends -- alleged members of another gang -- were talking loud at the party.
Wilson showed jurors photographs from the crime scene, including close-up pictures of bullet wounds and the unconscious, bloodied victims. The images brought the audience of about 50 people to a silent hush, until a victim's relative started weeping.
At the party, Perry was carrying a .40 caliber pistol, while Stewart had a 9 mm handgun and Stevenson carried a .22 caliber handgun, Wilson said. After the shooting, San Leandro police detectives found 15 shell casings from a .40 caliber pistol and four casings from a 9 mm handgun, the prosecutor said.
"When they arrived, it looked like a battlefield," Wilson told jurors. "The parking lot was littered with casings."
But one defendant's attorney reminded jurors that the existence of a street gang is not enough reason to find a defendant guilty. Alexander Selvin, representing Stevenson, also listed several reasons Monday why jurors should doubt witnesses for the prosecution.
"There will be big, big twists and turns" over the course of the trial, he said.
In his 30-minute-long opening statement, Selvin said he would prove that three key witnesses -- including two inside the vehicle -- cannot positively identify Stevenson. He also noted that several people at the party have admitted to smoking marijuana and drinking alcohol before and during the party, which would have clouded their memory.
"Did anyone really see Paul Stevenson with a gun at the time of the shooting?" Selvin said. "That's what this case is about, from my standpoint."
Darryl Stallworth and Tom Broome, the attorneys representing Perry and Stewart, were set to deliver their opening statements late Monday afternoon.
The defendants are charged with three counts of murder and four counts of premeditated attempted murder. Each is facing life in prison without possibility of parole if convicted during the trial that has the Alameda County Sheriff's Office providing increased security, including a metal detector outside the courtroom entrance.

SNOWMASS VILLAGE - In an election scenario unprecedented in the community, Snowmass Village is still waiting to find out who its newest Town Council member is, and it won't find out until Nov. 19 at the earliest.
On Election Day, Nov. 6, Mayor Bill Boineau and Councilwoman Markey Butler garnered enough votes to assure re-election to their respective positions. For the second open council seat, however, candidate Chris Jacobson was only leading by four votes as of election night, and 64 provisional ballots remain to be counted.
As of preliminary results on election night, Butler had 669 votes, Jacobson 503, Darryl Grob 499, and Stan Stokes 471.
According to Pitkin County election manager Dwight Shellman, the county first does a physical count of the provisional ballots. The committee that then reviews provisional ballots for their eligibility doesn't meet until Nov. 19, according to Shellman, so that's the earliest the race could be decided.
According to the secretary of state's website, a provisional ballot is provided to a voter whose eligibility can't be immediately established on Election Day. There are several scenarios in which that can happen: Provisional ballots are often provided to people who showed up to vote in the wrong precinct, whose address wasn't current, or were recorded as having mailed in a ballot.
The new members were scheduled to be sworn in at the council's next regular meeting on Nov. 19, but according to Snowmass Village director of communications Kelly Vaughn, the town doesn't swear in new officials until it receives certified results from the county election office. Terms for the officials don't end until the new members are sworn in, so the current council will proceed with the next regular meeting, and the swearing in will likely take place Dec. 3.
Longtime town staff members say this is the first time they remember this happening in a Town Council race.
"It just goes to show how important it is for everyone in a community - especially one of this size - to get out to vote, as decisions can be made by such a narrow margin," Vaughn said.

MARTINEZ -- Raul Ochoa, the Richmond man who controlled and sexually abused a female relative for 15 years, was formally sentenced to 22 years in prison Tuesday morning as part of a plea agreement.
Ochoa, 52, pleaded guilty to one count of forced lewd acts on a child and two counts of forcible rape. Deputy district attorney Ryan Wagner said Ochoa would have to serve 85 percent of his sentence (nearly 19 years) before being considered for parole. Ochoa will have to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life.
Wagner said the victim, whom this paper is not naming because she is the victim of sexual abuse, was not in Judge Terri Mockler's courtroom for Tuesday's sentencing. A letter was read to the court on behalf of the victim.
"This is for you to know," the letter read in part. "I have friends who look out for me and take care of me like you never did. I don't need you."

Unfortunately I had to return the curtain. Didn't want to, but the grommets were too small for the dual curtain hooks I had purchased along with the new liner. The balls on the hooks, which were not removable, would not fit through the grommet holes, otherwise it would now be hanging in my bathroom.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Holy Moly...what small holes (Grommets)

Grommets are so small none of our shower rings would fit through the holes. I purchased two NEW sets of rings and they would not go through the holes. Ended up having to use a piece of chain to hang curtains.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Friday, Nov. 11 • 7 p.m. CT
Gallagher-Iba Arena (13,611) • Stillwater, Okla.
RADIO: NewsRadio 1360 AM KKTX (Steven King)
LIVE STATS: OKState.com | LIVE AUDIO: GoIslanders.com
The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi men's basketball team will open its 2011-12 regular season with a Friday night contest at Big 12 foe Oklahoma State in Stillwater. The contest will be the first official game for head coach Willis Wilson at the helm of the Islanders program. The 25-year veteran of the college game became the third head coach in program history when he was hired on March 25. The Islanders have 10 newcomers and return just three scholarship players from last year's team.
Texas A&M - Corpus Christi played one exhibition game, last Saturday, falling in overtime to Incarnate Word, 69-65. In that contest, the Islanders rallied from a 14-point second-half deficit to force overtime, but the Cardinals were able to pull ahead on a three-pointer just over a minute into the extra session and led the rest of the way for the win. Oklahoma State won both of its exhibition contests in the preseason, drubbing Panhandle State 105-56 and knocking off Oklahoma Baptist, 66-53.
The Islanders head to Stillwater for the second straight year, having faced the Cowboys on Nov. 17, 2010. Texas A&M - Corpus Christi was within four points after a Terence Jones three with 3:30 to go, but the Cowboys were able to pull away in the closing minutes to register a 68-58 victory.
Jones led the Islanders with 18 points, while Chris Hawkins-Mast scored nine in the contest. Ray Penn came off the bench for OSU to net 17 points, while Marshall Moses added 17 and nine boards in the win. OSU has the best record of any team against Texas A&M - Corpus Christi, going 7-0, including a 5-0 mark in Stillwater.
Oklahoma State won both its exhibitions, besting Panhandle State and Oklahoma Baptist at home. Keiton Page led the way with 18 points against OBU, while Le'Bryan Nash had 26 and 11 vs. Panhandle.
The Islanders fell in their lone exhibition of the 2011-12 preseason, 69-65 to UIW. But they showed a hard-working attitude that will help the team improve as the season rolls on. Texas A&M - Corpus Christi trailed by 14 points with 14:25 to play, but rallied to force overtime with a 20-6 run.
Chris Hawkins-Mast led the team with 23 points and eight rebounds, going 10-for-17 from the floor. Terence Jones added 14 points, while Myron Dempsey added 10 in his Islanders debut.
With just three returning players from last season, the Islanders are one of the least experienced teams in the Southland Conference. While Sam Houston State has fewer points returning from last year, the Bearkats have a number of reserves back from last year's squad.
Starter Terence Jones and key reserve Chris Hawkins-Mast are the only two that played significant minutes last season for A&M - Corpus Christi. The Islanders return just 417 points (21.5 percent) from last year's team.
Willis Wilson will be the third coach in Islanders history to make his debut on the sidelines. The previous two coaches went 1-1 in their starts for the Island University. In Ronnie Arrow's first game – the first game in program history – the Islanders knocked off Eastern Washington, 71-67, in War Memorial Coliseum. Perry Clark's first game as the Islanders' bench boss was less successful, as his team fell to Texas Southern on Nov. 9, 2007.
As it was a year ago, the Islanders have a very challenging schedule early on in 2011-12. After opening the regular season on the road against Big 12 foe Oklahoma State, the team returns home to face off with one of the top teams in the Sun Belt – Denver. Next up is a Turkey Tuesday visit from Utah State, which lost just four games a year ago.
After Thanksgiving, the Islanders hit the road again to match up with Top 25 foe Texas A&M before returning to the Coastal Bend against their third Big 12 foe in under a month, Texas Tech. The Islanders also have pre-Christmas road games at Houston, Missouri State and West Virginia and a contest against Arrow's South Alabama squad in the American Bank Center.
Chris Hawkins-Mast and Terence Jones combined to average 13.9 points per game last year, but when they were on the court together, the offense ran well. In the 341:09 they played at the same time, the Islanders averaged 67.3 points per 40 minutes, five points more than the team averaged on the season overall (62.7).

Quarters in Halle
14.06.2012 | Tennis, Starseite 1
Roger made a good start into the Gerry Weber Open by defeating Florian Mayer 6-4, 7-5 in just 74 minutes today.
"I'm very happy with the way things went today. I obviously knew playing against Mayer in the first round was going to be tricky," he said.
Roger showed solid tennis today, having to defend just one single breakball - with a service winner. He will meet Milos Raonic (ATP 21) in the quarter-finals. It is already the third time this year that the two meet, Roger won both previous encounters, but dropped a set in each of them.
Roger lost the first set with Raonic! I'm getting a bit nervous! Hoping and praying things get better from now on!
Why do you always lose the first set against this guy? He WILL beat you big servers always take you out on grass, your return of serve which we have all said is aweful Tsonga, Berdych and Raonic are better than you on grass, they dont miss on tie breakers that was a reckless play always behind in this match :/
Nadal out! Great!
Good luck RF!
It was the great game!
It is the perfect place to win
On Grass~~~~
Good luck RF!
It was the great game!
It is the perfect place to win

Hello dear Roger! Good luck against Raonic, you are the best! After that Nadal is out in Halle the title is yours. Go Roger Go!!
So the grass rapist is out of Halle !!
Well done Roger
Good luck in the next round.
Love Flump.
Good luck in the next round.
Love Flump.
Good fight for next match. Good luck!

Kids' book picks: 'The Mighty Miss Malone'
Published: Friday, January 11, 2013 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 9, 2013 at 8:53 p.m.
"The Mighty Miss Malone" by Christopher Paul Curtis. With love and determination befitting the "world's greatest family," 12-year-old Deza Malone, her older brother Jimmie and their parents endure tough times in Gary, Ind., and later Flint, Mich., during the Great Depression.
"Midnight City" by J. Barton Mitchell. Earth has been conquered by an alien race known as the Assembly. The human adult population is gone, having succumbed to the Tone — a powerful, telepathic super signal broadcast across the planet that reduces them to a state of complete subservience. But the Tone has one critical flaw. It only affects the population once they reach their early twenties, which means that there is one group left to resist: Children.

Like it or not, a new shopping center may be coming to Augusta.
Monday, May 8, News 12 learned Judge William Fleming overturned a decision made by the Augusta Commission to keep the developer out.
It was a classic stand off: neighbors taking a stand against a developer who wanted to build a shopping center near their homes in Fox Hall.
In February, Augusta commissioners took sides with the neighbors.
Now a judge says what they did was unconstitutional.
They came, they saw, and they conquered.
The judge is siding with a group of Atlanta-based developers who want to change a residential area into a business district.
"The judge has instructed us to rezone the property within 60 days," said Augusta mayor Deke Copenhaver.
Back in February, hundreds of neighbors in Fox Hall showed up in commission chambers to fight the proposal.
"We protected the neighborhood," said commissioner Marion Williams. "It's out of our hands. We did all we could do, the judge has ruled so we got to accept it."
The plan is to build a 300,000 square foot shopping center near the Fox Hall neighborhood.
"The corporation bought that property knowing it was residential, and now they're suing everyone to make it commercial. I think they should be forced to eat it," says Fox Hall resident Carter Loftis.
Loftis has lived in Fox Hall for three years. He says he agrees the city needs growth, but it doesn't have to stomp out nice neighborhoods.
"I'm sorry, commissioners, we didn't have all this traffic until you started all this development here. Maybe we should look at other areas," he said.
"Bottom line is, these areas in west and south Augusta are never going back to the quiet sleeping areas they once were," said commissioner Andy Cheek. "Growth is a part of life. Augusta needs economic stimulus."
While the commission can still appeal the court's decision, the mayor says he would not support it.
"That's only costing more money for the taxpayers," he said. "But I do feel for them."
"Back the community," said Loftis. "We back them...and I'd expect they back us."
George Patty, the executive director of planning and zoning, tells News 12 the decision will come back to commissioners in June for reconsideration.
If the county fails to do that, the courts could declare the property free of zoning forever.
There's another major shopping complex relatively close to the Fox Hall area, and it has everything from an Old Navy to Circuit City.
The Augusta Exchange center is off Robert C. Daniel Parkway near Walton Way Extension.
When the land development debate first started, homeowners mentioned the close proximity of other shopping centers as a reason for not wanting this new complex.

Editor's note: Open Bar is a new column written by local attorneys Michael Brownlee and T.J. Voboril, of Thompson, Brownlee & Voboril LLC. It is difficult to find a topic more important (and, sadly, more mundane) than insurance coverage. Most civil attorneys, at some point in their careers, are forced to deal with a multitude of insurance issues ranging from coverage to claims handling. My first job out of law school was working for a (to remain nameless) insurance company handling homeowner policy claims during the peak of the "black mold" litigation that began in the early '90s. I was shocked to see how the sausage was made and quickly learned that insurance companies make money from collecting premiums, not paying claims.This is not to say that insurance companies are inherently evil; rather, they serve an important role in our society and enable individuals and entities the ability to quickly recover from a catastrophic loss. Moreover, the vast majority of people who work in the insurance industry are honest, hard working, honorable professionals who do their best to honor the obligations owed to the insured.From a legal perspective, an insurance policy is a contract between the policyholder and the insurance company. When a loss occurs, the insurance company will send out an adjuster to evaluate the claim and make a determination as to what money, if any, is owed to the insured under the terms of the insurance contract. This process usually results in a smooth, amicable transaction between the adjuster and the policyholder. The only time problems occur is when one of the parties engages in some sort of devious practice intending to artificially raise or lower the value of the claim.Until recently, Colorado law greatly favored the rights of insurance companies over policyholders. Claimants who committed insurance fraud were subject to both civil and criminal penalties, while policyholders were left with weak and expensive-to-litigate civil remedies.This changed in 2008, when Colorado joined the majority of states that have passed statutory "bad faith" laws that entitle parties who have had insurance claims unjustly delayed or were denied the right to recover damages and attorneys fees. By way of definition, insurance "bad faith" goes far beyond simple breach of contract, as it must involve unreasonable conduct or negligence (usually on the behalf of the insurance adjuster). Under the Colorado "bad faith" statute, insurance companies have an obligation not to unreasonably delay or deny an insurance claim. To comply with the law, insurance companies are required to take certain actions when handling a claim. This includes, but is not limited to, a duty to conduct an unbiased investigation and evaluation of a claim, a duty to pay valid claims, a duty to regularly communicate regarding the status of your claim, a duty to promptly pay any undisputed portion of claim and a duty to give the policyholder a prompt and reasonable explanation of a claim denial.Should an insurance company fail to meet its obligations and is found to have committed "bad faith" when handling the claim, the policyholder can recover as much as two times the amount of the underlying insurance claim, as well as interest on the unpaid benefit, attorney fees, costs and expert witness fees and, in some cases, exemplary damages (designed to deter companies from committing future wrongful conduct). In reality, these available damages are more bark than bite, as it is very rare to see a claimant recover all of the damages available under the law. The practical and positive effect of the law has been that insurance companies are much more efficient in the processing and adjustment of claims.From a consumer protection perspective, this is a constructive development in Colorado law because it levels the playing field between big business and individuals and allows for efficient and fair claims handling practices that should lead to fewer disputes clogging the court system.Michael Brownlee is a partner with Thompson, Brownlee & Voboril LLC, a local civil litigation firm.

A home on Munith Road in Leoni Township has been the subject of a police search since early Wednesday afternoon.
Jackson County Sheriff's deputies say narcotics and stolen property have been found, but won't confirm much more. They are working alongside Ingham County, Blackman Township and State Police in a joint task force effort.
Witnesses tell News Ten they've watched as heavy machinery was brought in to dig a series of holes on the property.
Harley Davidson motorcycles, boats, office supplies and heavy farm equipment was seized from the home.
"We're looking for property from break-ins property such as guns, also lawn equipment, tools and a lot of things that are more negotiable and easily sold -- easily pawned. We located a large quantity of this property," said Jackson County Police Captain Steven Rand.
Police were seen digging in the backyard, cataloging evidence, checking serial numbers, making multiple trips around the property and across the street, where other allegedly stolen property was found.
Neighbors are surprised to see any police activity in this relatively quiet neighborhood.
"First time I heard of anything like that going on around here. Nowadays you never know," said Mike Holt.
But Holt does admit that he's heard of break-ins happening in the area.
"We have a few people, one across the street got something stolen from him but I wouldn't say anything major," said Holt.
It was definitely a major search and seizure project happening on Munith Street and police say it is far from over.
"We can't even begin to say where this is going to lead," said Capt. Rand.
There is a joint press conference with Ingham County Sheriff's deputies will take place Friday morning to announce further details.

Solid reliable affair
Reviewed by Patrick McGarvey. Review Posted 17/07/2013
To start from the beginning: impressive case, attractive and well organised inside. Installation of components couldn't be easier-hard drive bays beautifully easy to use with no screws, CD drive slots in nicely (again screwless). As someone self building one would hope you know what you're doing yet still the total lack of instructions was probably a bit of a bad move. Integrated 2.5" hard drive support? I would like to know how without sitting down with the several bags of little bolts and screws and trying to attach them to the hard drive bays...
That aside the case is wonderful in use and the dust filters work a dream. Not quite as deadly silent as implied, but you can see the effort has been made and if you can put out the extra pennies to buy silent components you can expect near silence.
Overall-very good, strong case with secure and simple to use components and features. Would like to see it for a few pennies less and a little more help-but what is playing around for?

Free Knowledge! Learn Oracle Communications Online Mediation Controller (and more) NOW!
By llourie on Feb 06, 2013
I'd like to introduce Leif Lourie, a Curriculum Developer for the Oracle Communications Service Delivery Platform (SDP) products. For the last 8 years, Leif has worked as a Curriculum Developer for many of the telecom-oriented products that Oracle offers. He's been in the telecom industry for about 25 years and has worked also as a software developer, project manager, and architect. He currently creates courses for some of the products within Oracle Communications, namely the Oracle Communications Converged Application Server, Oracle Communications Services Gatekeeper, Oracle Communications Service Controller, Oracle Communications Policy Controller, and Oracle Communications Online Mediation Controller. Leif will share his perspective on developing courses for a product and share what he's done recently for the Oracle Communications Online Mediation Controller. Take it away, Leif!
Developing and supporting software products is challenging in many ways. Every part of our organization can probably name a number of challenges. I have friends in various positions, like engineering, QA, support, and pre-sales, and I have a pretty good idea about some of their challenges. Today, I will tell you about one of the challenges that I have and how I use one of the excellent resources we have at Oracle to address this challenge.
The products I work with are full of features and functions, and it is almost impossible to have full knowledge of even one of these products, let alone create courses that cover all aspects of one product. Well, that is a common challenge for most Curriculum Developers. We just have to divide the information in chunks that will be packaged in basic courses and advanced or specialization courses. But now, we are starting to scratch the surface of the big challenge in my job. What types of courses to create – and when. You see, creating courses is a tough job and we don't want to waste energy creating courses that no one is interested in. So, how do we know which courses to create? If you ask the people in the field, they want all courses to be available now! Unfortunately, this is not something we can support. So we need more information.
The first real demand for courseware usually comes from the pre-sales people. When they answer a Request For Information (RFI) or a Request For Proposal (RFP) from a customer, one of the standard questions is: What types of courses are available for the products you are offering? But this is still not a good enough source of information. We still do not know if the customer will need this course. Maybe they will only have one or two people working on the administration of the product and they will get enough information for their job from the product documentation.
Another approach would be to talk to our partners. They will be the ones building many of the solutions that will be used by customers. They probably need training to be able to describe, offer, and develop the right solution for the customers. But, many of our partners are already way beyond the basic information we would give them in our courseware, so we might not get enough or the right information from them either.
So, what to do, what to do…???
What if we make basic courseware for some of the SDP products available for free, to gauge the interest of the courseware? Well… we have the Oracle Learning Library, maybe we can use this? Said and done! We now have the first SDP course on Oracle Learning Library – The Oracle Communications Online Mediation Controller - Basic Administration Course.
You may now ask: What is the Oracle Learning Library? The Oracle Learning Library (OLL) allows you to search for free online learning content. The content ranges from videos, tutorials, articles, demos, and step-by-step instructions to accomplish a specific task to in-depth, self-paced, interactive learning modules.
To find the Online Mediation Course on OLL:
- Use your favorite browser and go to http://www.oracle.com/oll.
- In the middle of the screen, in the search field, enter Mediation and press Enter.
- In the list of course modules that is shown, select Oracle Communications Online Mediation Controller - Basic Administration Course, and you will see a description of the course content and you are given the opportunity to download the lessons and labs.
Now, it is possible for you to browse and view many of the course modules without having an account. But to be able to use all the features of OLL it is recommended that you create an Oracle Technology Network (OTN) account. This will give you access to all features of OLL as well as to all other parts of OTN. You can create your account here: https://myprofile.oracle.com/EndUser/faces/profile/createUser.jspx
After this you may browse all of the OLL resources. What are you waiting for? Learn more!
There is enough knowledge at OLL to keep you busy – learning – for a loooong time.

In this Jan. 17, 2013 photo, professional dancer Georges Exantus sleeps as his prosthetic limb lays on the floor in his bedroom in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Exantus thought he'd never dance again. He was lucky just to be alive. The earthquake three years ago in Haiti's capital flattened the apartment where he was living, where he spent three days trapped under a heap of jagged rubble. After friends dug him out, doctors amputated his right leg just below the knee. Exantus says he has learned to ignore the long stares and quiet whispers, products of a longstanding stigma in Haiti for people with disabilities. Before the quake, few resources existed to accommodate Haiti's disabled, and many regard people with disabilities as misfits. (AP Photo/Dieu Nalio Chery)
