My second book is designed to help people and organizations understand new technologies and their potential impact–and ultimately leverage them. It helps them determine if, and at what level they should be implemented, and ensure that they avoid making the same IT management mistakes of the last 25 years. While serving as a survey of the latest technologies being offered, the book provides a practical focus and each chapter addresses questions such as how to determine if an organization is ready for a specific technology, how to go about getting it ready, how to measure success, and how to identify the key risks and red flags.
Topics include cloud computing, SaaS, business intelligence, open source software, enterprise risk management, enterprise search, service oriented architecture, master data management, and others. The book features contributions from a number of prominent thought leaders. It also includes a foreword from Jill Dyché.
Are pilots on Enterprise 2.0 projects a good idea? I chime in with my own thoughts on the subject.
My NY Times' Tech Talk podcast is up. I'm one of several guests. My piece is about 21 minutes in and lasts about eight minutes.
I recently did an interview with Jay Baer in which I discuss the internal impact of social media and networking. You can read the entire interview by clicking here.
Debbie Henley of Weber Media recently interviewed me about The New Wave of Technologies.
If you make a living in IT, you must read this book. If you have anything to do with building scalable software today, you really should get and read this book.
The convergence of inexpensive hardware and bandwidth, the acceptance of open source solutions, and global software delivery have unleashed a torrent of innovations which are changing basic assumptions we make about enterprise technology. The Next Wave of Technologies provides a superbly curated survey of the most important areas of progressive IT thinking. It's a valuable resource for both business and technology executives alike.
--John L. Funge, Founder Pickle.com (acquired by Scripps Networks), Founder Clara Vista (acquired by CMGI) "Phil Simon and his team of experts have codified their collective insights, which serve as an invaluable guide for both business and technology professionals, for not only developing a holistic understanding of emerging technologies, but also navigating the new trails they are blazing ahead of us. The Next Wave of Technologies is required reading if you wish to avoid common mistakes and realize the full potential of new technologies—especially before your competitors do.
--Jim Harris, Independent consultant, speaker, writer, and Blogger-in-Chief at Obsessive-Compulsive Data Quality "Do you ever wish you had a singular guidebook to make sense of the endless claims about the "latest and greatest" technologies constantly bombarding us? In The Next Wave of Technologies Phil Simon has crafted a valuable compendium of sage technology advice from experts in a diverse array of fields: SOA, MDM, agile, SaaS, mobile computing, social media, cloud computing, open source, and others. With concise chapters that are easy to digest, this great book is essential for helping IT and business leaders make sense of the latest advances in technologies. It'll help you chart a course for the future. Don't leave home without it!
--Martin Moseley, CTO, Initiate Systems "The Next Wave is an especially readable examination of how emerging technologies can and will enable success in the Information Age. Simon delivers on his promise of providing practical guidance for business and IT management. Written for executives and managers by a team of hands-on subject matter experts, the book shows how to utilize–and optimize–emerging technologies with oustanding governance, project management, enterprise architecture, systems development, and leadership.

Custom-fit lenses give second life to frames
The Lens Kiosk offers customers specialized service
Scott Ihlenfeld's customer service goal is as clear as the eyeglass lenses he sells.
"Our unique business allows us to be transparent with patients," said Ihlenfeld, owner of The Lens Kiosk. "Unlike other optical retailers, we only carry lenses, so there's no pressure or games to convince customers that they need to buy frames for their glasses."
A longtime optical retail executive, Ihlenfeld opened The Lens Kiosk in Brookfield Square in December, after growing disenchanted with the direction he believes the industry is taking.
"I started The Lens Kiosk because I sensed customers' frustrations at having to discard their existing frames in favor of new and pricey ones every time they needed updated lenses," he said.
"We also work with a lab that has the sophisticated technology to handle high-definition lenses and can fit virtually any frame, including vintage and rimless."
Ihlenfeld estimates that The Lens Kiosk' installation service can be up to 50 percent less expensive than traditional optical retailers charge to add their lenses to new frames.
Public response, he continued, has been overwhelmingly positive to his new venture.
"Aside from the savings we provide, customers appreciate that our technicians can trace their frames, so they don't have to leave them with us," said Ihlenfeld.
Ihlenfeld's goals include expanding to other shopping malls. His kiosk is open seven days a week during regular Brookfield Square hours (10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday).

The Minnesota Canal and Reservoir Company held its 109th annual meeting on Saturday, Feb. 18, and it was good news from start to finish.
Roughly 40 people attended in the Paonia American Legion to hear board president Willy Kistler say that he expects to see the upper 5.2 miles of the canal encased in pipe by spring 2013, several years ahead of schedule.
The reason, he said, is that the Bureau of Reclamation has available the full $3.9 million the project will require. If construction starts at the end of the coming irrigation season, he thinks the contractors will be done by spring 2013, just in time for the new irrigation season.
That was the opening good news. The meeting closed with Kathy Welt, representing Mountain Coal, saying that her company's snowpack measurements in the canal company's watershed showed that we are ahead of 2010, which was an OK year. While the lower elevations haven't gotten much snow this year, the high country has done OK. Kistler guessed that the snow pack would come in at about 75 percent of normal. (And that was before Sunday's snowfall, which left 0.75 inches in my gauge on Lamborn Mesa.)
In between the report on piping the ditch and on the snowpack, shareholders representing 1,107 shares of the company's 1,700 outstanding shares heard that 2011 had been a good year financially; that ditch rider Mike Ullrey had twice saved the ditch from catastrophic washouts following flash floods by turning out the water. "He risked his life," Kistler said. And that the new valves that control Beaver Reservoir were working great.
The long-term good news was the likelihood that the upper half of the ditch, the part vulnerable to washouts, would be in pipe in time for the 2013 irrigation season. In addition to lowering maintenance costs, the elimination of seep and evaporation could cut losses by an estimated 25 (Kistler's estimate) to 40 (the Bureau of Reclamation's estimate) percent. The Bureau is funding the project to reduce the amount of salt entering the Colorado River from this valley.
The new construction will replace four siphon tubes on Apricot Hill with a single pipe and the present horseshoe ditch that circles Dry Gulch will be replaced by a siphon, saving $500,000 in construction costs.
The end result, Kistler hopes, is that the canal company may be able to take less water out of the canal's two reservoirs during July and August, extending the irrigation season further into September.
Because the $3.9 million construction cost will be fully covered by a federal grant, there will be no added indebtedness and so Kistler expects the new pipe to keep costs flatter than they would otherwise be.
At present, the 5.2-mile upper Minnesota feeds water into the slightly longer Minnesota Extension, which is governed separately. The Minnesota will start to revise its by-laws to create one company. It is hoped that the piping of the Extension will be funded by a future round of Reclamation grants. However, the piping of the upper half is most critical; it covers steep and unstable ground and is most prone to catastrophic failure.

Three of my absolute favorites are Eliza (from so many it's hard to count, but mainly Elizabeth "Eliza" Bennet, Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen), Gwendolen (Gwendolen Fairfax, The Importance of Being Earnest, Oscar Wilde), and Phoebe (Phoebe Caulfield, The Catcher in the Rye, J D Salinger).
I also love May and Archer (May Welland and Newland Archer, Age of Innocence, Edith Wharton), Crewe (Sara Crewe, A Little Princess, Frances Hodgson Burnett), and Lennox (Mary Lennox, The Secret Garden, Frances Hodgson Burnett). Classic literature for children, like A Little Princess, The Secret Garden, Alice in Wonderland, etc., really hold a wealth of amazing names!"Names, once they are in common use, quickly become mere sounds, their etymology being buried, like so many of the earth's marvels, beneath the dust of habit." - Salman Rushdie
Favorites - Eliza, Phoebe, Juliet, Archer, Holden, Jude

Who wins the prize for best bawler in last week's Corrie?
15 comments:
Leanne and Sally are a tie for first place for their crying.
Carla was an annoying drunk cry, which I hate.
And Fiz??? What the hell was all that screaming for? That was wayyyy over-acted. She wasn't delivering a full-term baby. - 13 December 2010 11:01
Oh, and I think Claire did a good job portraying someone in shock.
- 13 December 2010 11:03
Most actors produce tears simply by inhabiting the character in the given situation. It's connected with what they call Emotional Availability, or an actor's individual ability to connect with the emotion being portrayed. One trick is usually to invoke a sad memory, like a beloved childhood pet dying. Some actors are incredibly good at this and can turn on the tears like a light switch, with others, it can be hit & miss, although that's no reflection on their acting abilities - I've known so-so actors who can bawl on demand. Similarly there are some superb actors who simply cannot cry. There are eye drops (Essence of Onion? could be!)available for those actors who really can't do it though.
- 13 December 2010 11:10
Julia Howarth as Claire for me too. Well, she's got the kids too, which Leanne doesn't even though she adores Simon. Claire broke my heart. She really conveyed how I think someone in her situation would react, from what I've seen & personal experience.
Jane Danson as Leanne was amazing as well, though her crying had to be restrained by the fact that Peter might yet live. And Alison King as Carla also in a way had to hide why she was crying for Peter so much, so it was interesting to see her try, without success for Leanne.
I still maintain that Fiz giving birth would still be very painful even with a premature baby, given the fall she took and the stress of the crash.
Ah, it's good to be back talking about Corrie again after a 2 day much-needed rest from last week. - 13 December 2010 11:16
I think the best bawler last week was probably the audience watching. But if it had to be an actor/actress it would be sally dyvenor and jane danson. Fiz was funny to watch!
- 13 December 2010 11:51
- Tvor said...
Yes, a will agree probably Sally D. and Jane D. but with Julia H a very close second. It broke my heart seeing her sobbing in Betty's arms. I wondered where Claire's mother was but it's possible she'd already gone to France i suppose.
- 13 December 2010 12:24
Jane Danson was excellent. But really the whole cast were great, even if they didn't have the big storylines.
- 13 December 2010 14:20
definitely Leanne and Claire...both had ME bawling!!!
Fiz, meh. She was great don't get me wrong - and I've heard delivering a baby when it isn't 'time' is more painful as your body isn't ready (not buying it, 30 hrs I went through full term and hot damn that was pain)
Carla can eat my used tissues - whatev's. Crocodile tears. (though Alison King is great - just a character thing) - 13 December 2010 14:36
- seapenguin said...
Yes that Claire/Betty scene was very emotional. Thanks Cobblestone for the helpful info. It must be exhausting emoting like that, if you're drawing on your own experiences. I think I'd rather opt for the onions, me.
- 13 December 2010 17:05
Probably Claire and Leanne were best, although there was excellent acting all round really. Fizz balling her head off was a bit OTT, although her line about not reaching the "birthing" chapter in her baby book did raise a smile.
- 13 December 2010 21:45
It can get a bit beyond your conscious control occasionally, Seapenguin. I was once touring in 'Pygmalion' playing Henry Higgins and one night just burst into tears in the Act 4 clash with Eliza. Never rehearsed it like that at all, certainly didn't intend it - it's just where you are on the day, I think. That's why I think the achievement of last Friday, with the additional nerves that Sally, Jane, Julia (and bless him, let's not forget Craig as Graham, who delivered a deepling moving, tearful eulogy on Ashley)&c MUST have been feeling. It was possible the tears may not have come at the precise moment they needed to. But they did. Brave and magnificent.
- 13 December 2010 22:00
- Gina said...
Graeme was good. I thought it was quite moving when Fizz apologized to John about having hurt the baby. It makes me choke to think of it. She was way over acting the screaming though... but Fizz must have been very scared and in pain, so I'll let it slide.
- 14 December 2010 02:09
Seems like Carla's always having to share a man, except when she was with Tony (who adored her) and then she didn't want him.
- 14 December 2010 03:01
- Gina said...
what I don't get about Carla is that one minute she can't be with Trevor because she's still in LOVE with Liam - she even made him look more like Liam - and then the next minute she's sooo in love with Peter she wants to ruin the only friendship she has and break up a steady household. yeah, I know, it's a soap, but honestly... we all know that Carla would be a terrible mom to Simon and she and Peter wouldn't last a minute.

Claire's scenes were the most heartbreaking for me, with Leanne and Sally being tied for second.
As for Carla, I didn't feel any sympathy whatsoever for her. Alison King is a wonderful actress, don't get wrong, but Carla was just annoying. Me and my friends were rolling our eyes during her drunken rant at the hospital, and cheered when Leanne slapped her.
So, Claire gets my vote! - 15 December 2010 18:29

Last week Ken Ham addressed BioLogos specifically in a blog post, in response to Daniel Hamlin's testimony told in our blog on October 14th.
In this series, Ryan Pettey offers several clips from his powerful documentary "From the Dust". This feature-length film is divided up into various sections, each of which wrestles with the difficult problems that arise when reconciling Scripture with the theory of evolution. A light of hope dawns on the science-faith conversation, however, as scientists and theologians engage in honest dialogue about tough issues such as the interpretation of Genesis, the nature of the Fall, and the idea of random design. Their profound insights are sure to enlighten all minds, raise deeper questions, and provoke new thought.
This entry was originally posted on February 11, 2010. In this brief video, Professor Schloss addresses what he sees as the two primary reasons that evangelical Christians oppose evolutionary theory.
Astrobiology is the field of inquiry about the origin of life on our planet and the possibility of life elsewhere in the universe. Making a comeback is the theory that life began on Mars and emigrated from there to Earth via meteorites dislodged by collisions with asteroids.
We're excited to announce that the documentary From the Dust can now be purchased and rented through the iTunes Store!
If your core value is serving God and you believe that anything but a literal interpretation of the Bible is disobedient to God, you can't hear any of the scientific arguments, and that was the way it was with me. Until I dealt with the loyalty question, I could not proceed to the science.
After we both exhaled some relieved laughter, I whispered, "I believe God created the world and holds it together. Just how he did that is up for debate, but whatever conclusions you come to about the earth's origins, God did it. Okay?"
What do today's pastors think about science? What views do they hold on creation and evolution and how strongly do they hold them? How do origins issues impact their ministries? These were just a few of the questions that motivated us at BioLogos to commission a survey of pastors on origins
... I would exhort these, my fellow conservative evangelical shepherds and thinkers, to set aside all reticence and fear, emerge from anonymity, and storm the forum of discourse, engaging this most pressing matter with vigor, equanimity, and humility. In doing so, know upfront that there will be few handrails to guide; you will not be building upon an extensive precedence of published conservative thought.
In this video Conversation, Denis Alexander asserts that contemporary Christians are not taking the early chapters of Genesis seriously enough.
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
(Needs a summary)
Yesterday, biology professors Randy Moore and Sehoya Cotner raised the concern that workshops focused on evolution-related training do not reach creationism-based biology teachers. Today, we'd like to focus on BioLogos' efforts to address that divide through our Biology by the Sea workshops.
High school biology courses have a strong and lingering impact on students' views of evolution and creationism.
This ongoing series written by historian Ted Davis begins with a brief synopsis of his personal background, and then goes on to reveal his passion for debunking "the now-common view that the history of science and Christianity is one of ongoing, inevitable conflict."
In short, Lewis made it quite clear in his writings that he believed that there is no real conflict between mere evolution and mere Christianity.
If God himself is willing to die, particularly in such a gruesome way, then perhaps we should at least consider the possibility of God allowing the death of other creatures, too. But would this really be compatible with what we know of God through Scripture?
In this series, U.S. Navy Commander Mike Beidler shares his own personal journey from accepting young-earth creationism to embracing evolutionary creationism.
The tension generated by our understanding of God's character, as revealed in the Bible, and by the reality of the natural world around us has been the focus of much debate within the Christian church since the first century. This series examines critically several of the proposed solutions to this problem, viewing them from the perspective of a geologist, paleontologist, and orthodox evangelical Christian.
It may come as a surprise that when asked by The Colossian Forum what one thing he would like to hear Young Earth Creationists say, his answer had nothing to do with scientific statements at all. Rather, his hope is to hear a single simple phrase: "We're both part of the same family."

Community Property
Community property is made up of assets that come into marriage during the marriage through any means other than inheritance or gift. Assets acquired by the husband or wife, regardless of how those assets are titled are viewed as assets of the marital community. Not all states recognize community property. In "community property states" (such as California), community property belongs equally to each spouse. This is often contrasted with "separate property states."
Definition from Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary
A method of defining the ownership of property acquired during marriage, in which all earnings during marriage and all property acquired with those earnings are owned in common and all debts incurred during marriage are the responsibility of both spouses. Typically, community property consists of all property and profits acquired during marriage, except property received by inheritance, gift, or as the profits from property owned before marriage. Community property laws exist in Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin. In Alaska, couples can create community property by written agreement. (See also: separate property, equitable distribution)

Tenancy by the Entirety
Tenancy by the entirety is a type of shared ownership of property recognized in most states, available only to married couples. Much like in a joint tenancy, a husband and wife who own property as tenants by the entirety each own an undivided interest in the property, each have full rights to occupy and use it and have a right of survivorship. Tenants by the entirety also cannot transfer their interest in the property without the consent of the other spouse.
Definition from Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary
A special kind of ownership that's similar to joint tenancy but is only for married couples and, in a few states, same-sex couples who have registered with the state. It is available in about half the states. Both spouses have the right to enjoy the entire property. Neither one can unilaterally end the tenancy, and creditors of one spouse cannot force a sale of the property to collect on a debt. When one dies, the survivor automatically gets title to the entire property without a probate court proceeding. Also called "tenancy by the entireties." Compare: joint tenancy

President Barack Obama does not appear to be discouraged by Sen. Marco Rubio's Sunday morning statement that it is "premature" to consider a deal on immigration at hand.
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney brushed aside questions on Monday about "the comments that individual senators make about possible concerns they have - I would direct you to their offices."
"The president is absolutely serious about this. He has made clear that he is encouraged by the progress that's being made in the Senate and wants to see it continue and to produce a result," Carney said. "But he is absolutely confident that the approach we have taken of having the Senate Group of Eight move forward with bi-partisan negotiations and hopefully legislation has been the right approach."
Carney was referring to the Gang of Eight senators from both parties who have spent months attempting to negotiate a deal on comprehensive immigration reform.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, and Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-New York, said Sunday they expect to unveil legislation this week.
"It's got to be written up. We haven't signed off," Graham said on CNN's "State of the Union with Candy Crowley." "There are a few details yet, but conceptually - we have an agreement between business and labor, between ourselves. It has to be drafted. It will be rolled out next week."
Graham and Schumer, as well as Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Arizona, spoke Sunday after CNN and others reported business and labor groups had resolved their differences over a guest worker program outline, a key part of the final bill, and after Rubio's statement.
"I'm encouraged by reports of an agreement between business groups and unions on the issue of guest workers. However, reports that the bipartisan group of eight senators have agreed on a legislative proposal are premature," Rubio wrote.
"We have made substantial progress" but the Gang of Eight draft "will only be a starting point" that will be considered and modified by the Senate as a whole, he added.
At the White House on Monday, Carney downplayed the role of any one individual, calling it a "cooperative effort" and maintaining the administration is "very much engaged."
He said the process would not have moved forward in the same way without Obama's influence.
"I think that we have chosen a path that makes a lot of sense which is giving room for the Senate to make progress in a bipartisan way on this issue, but I don't think that anybody should be under any illusion that we would not be where we are today making the progress that we have made if it weren't for the fact that the president has made clear consistently and very publicly as well as privately in conversation with rank and file members and leaders in Congress that this is a top priority for the country," Carney said.
Rubio, Graham, Schumer, and Flake are joined in the Gang of Eight by Sens. Michael Bennet, D-Colorado; Dick Durbin, D-Illinois; John McCain, R-Arizona; and Robert Menendez, D-New Jersey.

B A+F Health & Safety: The health center is amazing! The staff is very friendly. The police on the other hand are more occupied with other events occurring off campus than on. More safe on campus than off campus

Regis is a close knit community because it is small you know the majority of the student body, which is great when you are walking through campus saying hi to most of the people you see. It gives you a sense of togetherness that I would never want to give up, so of course I would choose Regis if I had to do it all over again. Also the mountains give you an opportunity to do something, like skiing, with your friends that is unique and fun.
I had to fight my parents to let me go to Regis in the first place since it is an eight hour drive from my hometown, but I would not trade in the Regis experience to erase all the fights I had with my parents. I love it here too much. Also I have met the best friends I could ever imagine here and I love being able to be on a one on one relationship with my teachers. My friends will last a lifetime because we have shared so many experiences together that we could have never had at a big school. The professors are amazing at Regis. They are experienced and knowledgeable about their subjects and they want you to know and understand as much as you can about their subject, so they will do whatever it takes to accomplish this goal.

3. The Generic overused + any DPS heroes/
Electrician + Pebbles who knows how to "combo"
I find Warbeast is good dps, and Keeper/Chronos with a 0:00 DD is pretty awesome.
It's spelt Chronos. C-H-R-O-N-O-S. YOU DO NOT SPELL IT CHORNOS OR CRONOS, IT'S CHRONOS. ARE YOU RETARDED?
Vote Up for the "TOO BAD IT'S ME 0.1% CHANCE FOR 7X MULTICAST LOLOLOL" suggestion!
Annoyed at Zephyr/Warbeast? Play games with him, click on the scout.
Keeper is totally useless until level 6 when it comes to getting kills. He has nice babysitting and last hitting(ironically) that's all.
Warbeast has no slow or stun - it's useless without an electrician and even then it'd have to be a level 3 kill..
For bloodlust you need a way to hold the enemy to give you a few seconds to get into position, then you need a slow (or using a melee hero,keep them blocked and animation cancel). - since melee heroes generally deal the greater damage and can take a few hits.
The reason swift is so good is because he can block easily whilst spinning - and is immune to all (except slithers wards ?) stuns and slows during that time.
Read the stuff above, electrician + magebane/puppet/swiftblade
Glacius+pebbles/witch slayer etc.
(i only say this because well:
maybe you'd appreciate the advice

Slither roaming pretty much guarantees a first blood if played right. Try it. It's amazing
cant believe it took so long. The best one is easily 5 second stun at lvl 1. Just add any other 2 heroes two auto attack them for 5 seconds.

Every exercise program should include some aerobic activities. The health benefits are many, and it is fairly easy to fit into your daily routine. If you are interested in increasing your aerobic activity, this information will get you started.
In aerobic exercise, you continually move large muscle groups, such as legs, arms, and buttocks. This action causes you to breathe more deeply and your heart to work harder to pump blood, thereby strengthening your heart and lungs.
Before starting an exercise program, check with your doctor about any possible medical problems. This is especially important if you have a chronic condition. If you are new to exercise, consider making an appointment with a certified athletic trainer to help you develop a safe, effective, and enjoyable exercise program. You can find a trainer at a local gym or through a referral from your doctor or a friend.

November 29, 2005
by H. Peter Karoff
The following essay was prepared for a discussion on bequests and legacies—part of a series of six discussions entitled "The Dialogues on Civic Philanthropy: Perfecting Our Grants" (2005-2006). By clicking the links to the right, you can access more information on this series, learn about the Dialogues project as a whole, read other prepared essays, and download discussion transcripts.
IN THINKING about legacy, of which bequests are one aspect, the place I would begin is with the notion of alignment.
You might ask—alignment with what? The answer is alignment between your legacy and those things that you hold dear.
If philanthropy is fundamentally an articulation of values and passions, and I believe that is the case, than the first, and most important, alignment is with one's deeply held individual or family beliefs. For example, TPI is working with a donor who has strong Catholic social values, and is considering legacy gifts to as many as twelve institutions, primarily Catholic colleges and universities but also to medical institutions and global relief agencies. These gifts will be $1 million a year "forever" unless the recipient organization no longer embodies the foundation's stated Catholic values. How to make that determination, and how to evaluate if a recipient has strayed from those values is not simple, but after considerable thought we have in fact come up with a methodology and protocol to make those judgments that are intended to be fair to the organization and true to the donor's intent.
Interestingly, this same donor has another strongly held view, that his legacy gifts should be transformational. Defining what transformational means, and how to measure it, is as equally challenging as determining the meaning of Catholic values. Using as the point of departure an essay on transformational philanthropy(1), have come up with a definition that satisfies the donor and will hopefully serve as a guide to the recipient organizations.
There is always tension and ambiguity in this kind of discussion. It is to some degree "messy" which seems just right. In fact, my antenna goes up when donor intent is presented as a catechism as opposed to a more fluid, living, breathing and adaptive footprint. One can not know what the future will hold. What is considered a violation of today's Catholic values, or any other dogma or belief system, may not be so considered in the future. In this example, the donor wisely has not been specific around any one of many controversial issues, i.e., stem cell research, birth control policies, married priests or gay marriage. It is not that the donor does not believe deeply in the right and wrong of those questions, because he in fact does, however, he is persuaded, somewhat from his smart children but more from his own experience in life, that the world we live in is always in great flux, and that the mainstream of today's values may well shift in twenty-five, fifty or one hundred years. The same is certainly true of the meaning of the term transformation, which will clearly be different in the future than it is today.
The second major legacy alignment is around goals. What does the donor want, or hope, will be the result of their gifts? Those answers greatly influence major philanthropic policy decisions.
Often the primary legacy goal is to pass on philanthropic values, and establish a family foundation, or giving process, that will serve as a vehicle to bind the family together far into the future. If that is the case, the donor must come to terms with what he wants and what the next generation

I've always had a bit of an antagonistic relationship with Christmas. Throughout December, the festive season and I eye each other with suspicion, circling each other like hawks as I desperately scour the internet attempting to figure out what to buy my loved ones (not for me the anguished Christmas-Eve dash around my local shopping centre. I'm still scarred from the time I did that the world's worst post-office-Christmas-party-hangover back in 2006.) Then, I finally relent and give into the glow of bad jumpers, unsatisfying mince pies and an unending chorus of 'Wonderful Christmastime.' This year, I know the exact time and date I will be filling myself full of Christmas cheer – 12.00pm on Friday when I finish work for two whole glorious weeks. During this period, I intend to do nothing apart from lie on my sofa watching the Darts, pickling myself in good wine and stuffing myself full of the finest pork products. Andy Williams was right – Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year.
Until then, I am frantically trying to use up all the leftover odds and ends in my fridge so I can stuff it full of cheese and cheap Prosecco. Last night, I found two shrivelled looking parsnips huddling together at the bottom of my vegetable box, so decided to use them as part of a tasty risotto. Parsnip risotto may sound a bit odd, but I've seen Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall make a dish similar to this, and if it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me. As it is, the parsnips are caramelised in a mixture of butter and olive oil until they turn brown, soft and sweet. Rice is toasted, wine is added, and chicken stock slowly ladled in until you're left with a large bowl of soft melting comfort, flecked through with tiny green dashes of rosemary and thyme.
This risotto is the perfect thing to make if you're looking to use up any leftover Christmas vegetables. Yes, it may look a bit pale and wan, but pale food can be interesting too. Besides, (wo)man can't live on handfuls of Celebrations and turkey sandwiches alone this festive season. Merry Christmas.
HERBED PARSNIP RISOTTO (Serves Two)
You will need:
- Two medium sized parsnips, peeled and cut into rounds the thickness of a pound coin
- Two shallots (the small round ones, not the banana ones), peeled and diced
- Three cloves of garlic, diced
- 200g Arborio rice
- One glass of Italian white wine
- 1.5 pints of good quality chicken stock, heated
- 1 tsp Rosemary (preferably fresh, but don't worry if you've only got the dried stuff)
- 1/2 tsp Thyme
- Salt and Pepper to season
- A healthy amount of parmesan, to serve
Make It!
- Heat a tablespoon of olive oil and a tablespoon of butter in a heavy bottomed pan. Sauté the parsnips over a gentle heat for three minutes until they are beginning to brown at the edges.
- Add the chopped shallots and garlic, and cook for another two minutes. Once everything is soft, add the Arborio rice to the pan, and coat in the mixture. Allow the rice toast lightly for a minute until it begins to turn translucent.
- Pour in the glass of wine, and stir until fully incorporated. Then, add the hot stock, ladleful by ladleful, until it is all adsorbed and the rice is creamy and tender. Don't be afraid to keep stirring the pan and tasting the mixture during this process, seasoning where appropriate.
- Stir in the rosemary, thyme and parmesan cheese. Serve immediately with the rest of the wine.

The Hong Kong government has scrapped plans to introduce a mandatory Chinese civic education subject critics had slammed as pro-mainland propaganda.
The decision came on the eve of local elections and after a series of protests including a 10-day hunger strike on the steps of the government headquarters.
C.Y. Leung, the city's chief executive, announced Saturday that individual schools would have the option to adopt the controversial curriculum called "Moral and National Education."
"We're giving the authority to the schools," he said. "This is very much in line with our school-based education policy."
A coalition of concern group had protested against the subject which they said amounted to "brainwashing" impressionable young minds with pro-mainland Chinese propaganda.
Hong Kong has a large degree of autonomy from the Beijing government as part of the agreement made with Britain after the 1997 transfer of power.
The course material had been outlined in a government booklet called "The China Model," which was distributed to schools in July.
China's ruling party is "progressive, selfless and united," the booklet said. It criticized multi-party systems as bringing disaster to countries such as the United States.
The booklet also makes no mention of major events that many view as integral to China's history, such as the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.
Anger over the government's initial plans to give schools a three-year deadline to introduce the subject prompted a number of major protests. The most recent was on Saturday when 100,000 protesters took to the streets, according to organizers' figures quoted by the South China Morning Post.
The SCMP reported that Leung denied the government back-down was timed to influence results of Sunday's Legislative Council election.
"If it hadn't been for the decision of the last administration, national education would not have been on the agenda of this government," Leung said, according to the SCMP.
"I would rather concentrate on housing, poverty and other livelihood issues. I've held numerous talks with the chief secretary on major policymaking, [and] none of our conversations ever touched on national education," he added.

TV station taps copyright law to erase embarrassing broadcast
A San Francisco Bay Area television station that became world famous for a humiliating gaffe during a news broadcast about a deadly plane crash is apparently trying to erase the event through copyright law.
Six days after Asiana flight 214 crashed at San Francisco International Airport on July 6, KTVU morning anchor Tori Campbell said the station had just confirmed the names of the pilots and proceeded to read them out loud as they were simultaneously displayed on viewers' screens. The names read by Campbell -- "Captain Sum Ting Wong," "Wi Tu Lo," "Ho Lee … Read more

-- in November.
Joining me now is former US ambassador to -- UN John Bolton and mr.
Desist hearken back you deja -- Absolutely and remember wasn't just the seizure of hostages in Tehran they attacked our embassy in Libya they attacked our embassy in Pakistan.
And I think word risk of seeing this wave of hostilities sweep over the entire Middle East.
It it's the same.
It it's it -- it obviously appears organized I think there's no conclusion but that the attacks were intended for September the eleventh and votes Libya and Egypt whether the two were coordinated we don't know yet.
But you know in Libya this was an attack by -- terrorist group early indications -- it might be al-Qaeda we don't know yet.
But it certainly undercuts the narrative that the war on terror is over and that al-Qaeda is no longer a threat for dead Americans is a terrible.
Tragedy -- occur on 9/11 and in Egypt with the Muslim Brotherhood in control and even more radical elements demonstrating in the streets outside.
Really calls into question who's in charge in -- very very damaging for the United States' -- It's into the question about al-Qaeda and whether you've got all these -- to we've always been warned about the fact you've got kind of these.
Cousins if you will lower subsidiaries however you want to try to identify them.
Are they are they still see.
Is is al-Qaeda is still running the show.
Well I think they're still very much in the terrorism business you know al-Qaeda never was like a corporate hierarchy with a chart on the -- it's more now what they call -- distributed network.
Al-Qaeda in North Africa al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula and Yemen in places like that al-Qaeda in Iraq and I think what we saw and then Ghazi on September the eleventh was al-Qaeda demonstrating its it can still -- carry out terrorist activities.
Secretary of state Clinton said that this was a small group.
I district.
A couple thousand people.
Is a small group and it in a country of eighty million you know it is it is not the case that we're talking about conducting Gallup opinion polls in Westchester County -- a small group of terrorists can take over.
-- country.
Or can certainly carved out a large area where they can operate with impunity is in Somalia where there is no central government.
But where it's been a hot bed for pirates and terrorists that's what I fear.
For Libya and I think al-Qaeda is demonstrating it is not safe.
For Americans to be traveling without heavy security anywhere in that country.
Lot of people are upset because of the fact that we are the ones that led NATO effort to rid them of their dictator.
We are the ones and bin Ghazi alone that that that was involved in fact even -- the investor was involved directly.
In try to get that in the hands of the rebels a lot of people of the time we're saying be careful we don't know who the rebels are.
What do you say well I think unfortunately that's come to be true I don't doubt that there were a lot of people who wanted to overthrow Gaddafi who wanted to establish or a representative government I think -- we did the right thing in.
Overthrowing Gaddafi after -- threatened to return to international terrorism in which he was a specialist.
But that was only half the nation's second half was put a government in place that's responsible.
That will deal with terrorist we have not done that would.
Do you -- mean -- that was the idea and I keep hearing everybody in the diplomatic -- talking about the fact that we're establishing democracy and I'm thinking.
No it's not democracy not there's nobody in Egypt story in Libya or in Yemen that have equal.
An equal voice well that's -- demark.
We're seeing that that's why I think you have to be very careful when you intervene in these circumstances I think Qaddafi was particular case given his history of terrorism.
But right now that there is no progress toward democracy -- -- we're just blowing smoke if we think that that's what's actually happening.
I think -- in a situation in Egypt Libya perhaps elsewhere where it's a kind of one person one vote one time risks that were saying.
The a go back to bring up Saddam Hussein are are we.
Maybe we need to rethink.
Some of these iron you know I don't go back to the Shaw of Iran.
Iron fisted dictators.
That we.
Overthrow and we wind up with trouble more trouble than before.
I think you have to look at a case by case the Shah of Iran Mubarak in Egypt for allies of the United States and overthrowing them I think in retrospect looks worse and worse every day that goes by.
Saddam was a different case he was a threat to real allies of -- the Arab states of the Arabian Peninsula.
I think we have seen unfortunately a lot of what we sacrificed for in Iraq going the wrong way.
In part most recently because we've withdrawn our combat forces and lost the most important influence we had over the current government.
But in the Arab world in general I think unfortunately we're seeing the Arab Spring turn into something very different from what we originally hoped.
And this idea that democracy was gonna take -- just isn't working on giving another example the prime minister of Turkey aired one once said democracy is like a street car.
You ride it to the stop you want and then you get off that's pretty chilling.
So that the question we've been asking ever since 9/11.
Is why do they hate us because they talk about the movie was the reason.
It seemed like that's not true that was just a pretax if it wasn't the movie it would have been something else right and that the question is is it.
We are the leaders of the world we have a wonderful lifestyle we have freedom they don't.
Well I think it's jealousy combined in recent years with the feeling were in decline and were vulnerable and therefore we can be taken on.
I think that religious fanaticism is the basic rude and you know we misunderstand it when we think it's caused by economic deprivation it's a completely different.
Social phenomenon we didn't understand communism.
For many people during the Cold War you know -- we used to say the Chinese Communists were just agrarian reformers.
And to say that the Muslim Brotherhood for example system moderate islamists this organization is very dangerous I think that's one reason why and Libya and Egypt we seem to have been.
Taken by surprise because if the State Department felt it was in a benign environment it wouldn't be protecting itself that is tragically turned out to be a long way from reality.
-- political implications President Obama and Egypt.
And Libya are definitely is -- -- you can't blame bush for this gap so what's the implicate what's the what's.
Effect on him.
Well I think it remains to be seen how it's gonna play out over the next several weeks of things continue to get worse surface stabilize but.
There's little doubt this reflects a failure of the administration's policy -- a failure of the idea can.
Engage in outreach and ignore the threat of international terrorism that it can isolate Israel ignore runs.
Progress toward nuclear weapons I think this is a legitimate subject for public debate.
In the run up to the election I thought Romney's comment was right on target let's get the debate on.
Well that will be I'm third discussed that the debates ambassador Bolton thank you always good to -- credit.

Chlorine-free Wool
Raw, untreated wool has scales that make it itchy and coarse and cause it to shrink, so most wool fabrics are treated with chlorine to reduce the scales. But chlorine is a pervasive pollutant that's especially harmful to organisms living in water and soil. We remove the scales from our merino wool fibers using a unique chlorine-free process that's bluesign approved.
