Haiku Gets Spooky
By Andrew Huff on November 13, 2014 10:38 PM
The Nov. 4th edition of Tuesday Funk brought a new crop of topical haiku from co-host Andrew Huff, including a Halloween treat.
Your first rule as host
is speak clearly. The second
is don't forget stuff.
Neither snow nor rain
nor gloomy night stays these kids
from Halloween treats.
Did you vote today?
No matter the candidate,
your civic duty.
When polling places
fail to open, civil servants
come to the rescue.
Haiku by Andrew,
Poetry,
HUFF Andrew

November Debriefing
By Eden Robins on November 6, 2014 11:43 AM
Ah... remember when we were all rosy-cheeked from voting, that glorious window between filling in those arrows and finding out that everything had gone horribly wrong? Remember how we all went to Tuesday Funk #75 together and had a glorious time listening to amazing readers?
Let's always remember it this way. The good times. Let them roll.
Melinda McIntire jerked our funny bones as well as our fear-flexes with a story of near-pregnancy, of love lost and sanity gained. Tom Haley followed with a dryly funny story of car-smashed cats and sentient grape tomatoes. And former co-host William Shunn made us all nostalgic with one of his signature poems... and an excerpt of a cool-as-hell sci-fi story involving nanotech, brain feeds, and hip New York parties.
We paused for a message from our local booze-peddler, Mark.
In the second half, Keesha Beckford delivered a heartfelt and sobering plea for the safety of black boys, asking for compassion and action from white moms. And Maggie Jenkins delivered an inspirational and heartbreaking story about trying to achieve one's goals... and falling just short.
So when you look at the election results, just remember what a swell time we all had that night. And come have another swell time with us on December 2nd, when we'll be featuring Jac Jemc, Jonathan Eig, Karen Genelly, James Gordon, and Carly Oishi!
Debriefings,

So here's to starting over. Here is to day one of being symptom free again.
I knew he would have stopped me, even from miles away.
My eating disorder and familiar foe, Ed, knew that as well. What was earlier a sweet victory bowl of ice cream in celebration of a symptom-free month soon became a tinted binge. We stuffed and shoveled as a I felt my 40 days free from Ed coming to an end.
But Ed sang his sweet siren song of freedom.
"Purge," he sang. "Purge and be free from the hurt and the fear of being alone after being discharged from treatment."
Each spoonful becoming more tasteless as this bowl of ice cream became less of a late night delight and more of Ed's controlling binge.
He would have stopped me, Ed knew this and sang his siren song louder.
"It's just a bowl of ice cream," he sang. "Everyone eats ice cream!"
"Indulge," he sang. "You deserve this after how hard it was during those 40 days without me."
With that, he captured me with his siren song and I began to eat spoonful after spoonful of what once was a happy childhood treat, now turned to Ed's binge food.
My spoon reached the bottom of the carton and Ed began to sing a different tune.
As I stared at the bottom of the carton, I felt Ed's lyrics of worthlessness sink in. Sitting alone in this unfamiliar house, motionless on the kitchen floor, my world slowed. The realization my 40 days of being symptom free were coming to an end at this very moment.
I was falling too fast to catch myself or even reach out for help.
Ed took advantage of my vulnerability and sang his familiar song louder and louder.
I walked to the bathroom on autopilot. I turned on the sink faucet, drank in the key to my freedom, and felt the defeat as it all came back out. Right then and there, my symptom-free streak ended.
Waves upon waves came out as Ed sang praises to empty my stomach into the porcelain.
And when it was all finally over, Ed was silent, nowhere to be found. Ed left me with my thoughts of despair and failure after my first relapse since finishing treatment.
And that's when I finally called.
But it was too late, Ed's siren call had ended.
Ed had left me empty, worthless and defeated.
Causing my loved ones to be disappointed and angry.
40 days of being symptom-free and Ed defeated me with a bowl of ice cream.
After tonight, I can't promise I won't relapse again.
But I can promise that I will learn.
And what I learned from this relapse is that next time Ed sings his siren song, call.
Ed can not take away my 40 days symptom-free, I won't let him.
So here is to starting over and to day one of being symptom free again.
He may have won this battle but God willing, I will win this war.

Captain Canot; or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver; Being an Account of His Career and Adventures on the Coast, in the Interior, on Shipboard, and in the West Indies. Written Out and Edited from the Captain's Journals, Memoranda and Conversations…
Classic account of the Trans-Atlantic slave trade by a participant, Captain Theodore Canot (1804–1860). His narrative as a slaver in Africa and the West Indies, as recorded by Baltimore historian, Brantz Mayer, includes much on the slave trade in the interior of Africa including journeys to Timbo, Timbuktu, Kambia, Dahomey, Sierra Leone, and Liberia.
"This memoir, as well as being a circumstantial account of the slave trade, is a document in the intellectual history of racism. Mayer saw in Canot's story a confirmation of his own facile assumptions concerning the slavery question, and he provided Canot's narrative of skulduggery with a moral for his times."¹
Various chapters discuss "How a cargo of slaves is landed in Cuba," the "Spread of Mahometanism in the interior of Africa," etc. Engraved illustration plates depict "Inspection and sale of a Negro," "Branding a Negress," and "The Massacre at Digby."

"WHIP and CHILL" does it still exist?
Wow! This has to be one of the oldest threads ever revived! It's originally from 2002, which I think is when D.C. first started.
Why,oh why? I had thought this horrid memory had faded for good since last brought to light!
Yep, this IS a moldy oldie. Don't think the product is readily available but I suppose Dream Whip cold be substituted.


When IT and corporate see eye-to-eye, alignment success is inevitableAs CIOs take an increasingly commanding role in strategy development, and boards get increasingly wised up to the strategic potential of IT, smart companies are beginning to take a good, hard look at the value that the IT investment contributes to the organisation.
Market leaders are using IT to extend their business model and embrace new opportunities and partnerships. In turn, those new opportunities and partnerships are helping them leverage competitive advantage from those IT investments. Consider it in that context, and the decision by Perth-based financial services provider BankWest (BWA) and e-business and IT services supplier Unisys Australia to forge a joint venture to deliver IT services to government departments and enterprises suddenly starts to make perfect sense.
"The vast majority of new emerging business opportunities that we're getting are technology-led," says BankWest general manager emerging businesses and systems Chris Whitehead. "To me there is absolutely no doubt that technology is the key to banks' competitiveness going forward and, indeed, you're seeing banks place investments with IT companies. So I say the other banks, if they're not looking at their own IT as a strategic asset, are being a bit inconsistent."
Not only consistent, the Unisys West initiative is also a significant strategic move for both BankWest and Unisys. It is aimed at providing Australian businesses and public sector organisations with a significant alternative in the large-scale mainframe and Unix mid-range-outsourcing marketplace. While a vast divergence from traditional banking activity, the move for BankWest springs from its utter confidence in its IT capability and is proving one way - perhaps even the only way - to extract fresh value from its IT spend. Further, it perfectly reflects the bank's strategy to diversify its business by developing profitable new revenue streams.
It also seems consolidating a bank's and an IT vendor's IT services groups can achieve wonderful things. The venture lets Unisys West offer business-to-business e-commerce transaction services, data centre outsourcing, business process outsourcing, network management, help-desk operations, disaster recovery services, managed services and application service provision (ASP). It capitalises on Unisys' end-to-end e-business solutions and deep vertical industry expertise and BankWest's strengths in payments processing, not to mention the combined IT and e-commerce capabilities of both. It has also tapped into the increasing need of customers for innovative and creative solutions outside core banking services, while providing the twin benefit of giving its main players improved economies of scale.
Unisys West uses both partners' data centres and has a board of directors comprising people from both companies under chief executive Doug Cox. Two of BankWest's senior managers report to Cox and run aspects of service delivery.
"The management is a mix of both companies and the board is a mix of both companies, and what we're now working on is making sure we integrate our strategies and sales efforts," Whitehead says. "We believe there's a strong opportunity to leverage each others' customer bases and offer those customers a more complete service and one where increasingly we can actually integrate banking-type capability with transaction processing capability. We think that's an exciting proposition."
On Unisys' part, the venture merely extends its embrace of new business models to accelerate its information services capability, exemplified by its acquisition earlier this year of QCOM, one of Queensland's leading e-business solutions providers. Unisys' West Australian branch manager, Murray Rosa, has described the venture as a prototype for deals Unisys might pursue globally, increasing the organisation's staff in Western Australia from 80 people to 160 people and enabling it to diversify through (BankWest's) IBM mainframe.
Meanwhile, for BankWest a move that just a few years ago would have been unthinkable is now perhaps not only proving the best way to leverage competitive advantage from its world-beating in-house IT department and data centre but also a way to generate fresh revenue streams. The end game is the achievement of a substantially better return on investments in BankWest's technology infrastructure.
The BankWest announcement in August last year was quickly followed by a decision to form a strategic relationship and investment in Pulse, an electronic payment switching company whose value proposition involves integrating payment switching into a company's business processes. The deal is seen as a way to acquire software development and specialised payments capability to complement the bank's service offerings.
BankWest is also constantly looking at other strategic alliances and very much looking to continue to build an advanced technology capability. For instance, almost a year ago it floated off a software development company called CBS IS which is marketing core banking systems globally. CBS IS recently sold BankWest's system to its parent company, the Bank of Scotland, which in turn is looking to sell it to other banks.
"E-business is changing business models: how firms do business and the roles and relationships between customers and suppliers - in fact between all stakeholders," noted GartnerGroup vice president, executive programs worldwide Marianne Broadbent in her May report "Shaping CIO Agendas in an 'E' World". "Business models are emerging around what information technology can enable."
That's exactly the principle Unisys West was built on.
There's no doubt the joint venture represents a radical departure from core banking business. However, according to Whitehead, the new structure is extremely good business, arising as it did in part from the bank's habit of constantly reviewing costs and looking for opportunities to make the organisation more efficient.
"There were a couple of reasons for the decision to establish the joint venture," he says. "Looking from an IT perspective in the bank, we did a benchmarking exercise which proved the bank's IT services were already operating at world's best practice." Over the last 10 to 15 years, BankWest has maintained a close focus on its mainframe development and operations. It has also adopted a zero-tolerance approach to failures and built its infrastructure and capabilities around the notion of the mainframe as engine room of the bank.
Initially concentrating on building a robust environment, BankWest backed that robustness up with an advanced backup capability. It maintains about 10 high-speed connections between its two data centres, achieving real-time mirroring of all the key information in the core banking systems and ensuring it is extremely easy to switch services between the two. Together that robustness and reliability explain why the bank is running at world's best practice; but they also left the bank with a dilemma: how to extract more value from an already highly effective value proposition.
"The benchmarking exercise identified the fact that the only opportunity in reality to get down the bank's overall costs of IT was to gain scale," Whitehead says. "We could only get the unit costs down by having greater scale that would generate some benefits and an opportunity to be more efficient." Other banks when confronted with the need to achieve efficiency have decided outsourcing was the best way to meet their goals. Perhaps the reason BankWest didn't is because it approached the same dilemma from a very different mind-set.
"Our mind-set was very much that we're good at this, here's an opportunity to exploit it," Whitehead says. "We were very confident of our delivery capability and felt there was a strong proposition there that wasn't, from our point of view, getting out of IT services," Whitehead says. "Instead the proposition was, as an organisation through a joint venture, getting into another area of the value chain in terms of transaction processing."
However, the decision also sprang from a belief that an organisation running any function not considered fundamental to the core business at best practice standards has a perfect opportunity to commercialise that service. "That's another factor that drove us," Whitehead says. "Here we had something that was performing extremely well. If it gained scale we could get more efficient; and also, if we commercialised it, we could actually turn a cost centre into a profit centre."
While BankWest had robust infrastructure and IT skills aplenty, it lacked the ability to put together a saleable commercial proposal, with associated processes and controls. That's why it felt it needed to go into a joint venture in order to source the skills it didn't have.
BankWest actually runs little Unisys technology, apart from in its clearing area, and even that has now been outsourced to Austpay. It does, however, have a strong relationship with Unisys, having outsourced all its PC and LANs to them about 16 months before, an arrangement Whitehead says has gone extremely well. With that endorsement of Unisys' services capability it seemed perfectly logical that Unisys should be the one BankWest drew on for sales and marketing and services management capabilities.
BankWest has carefully nurtured its IT skills base over a long period. The establishment of Unisys West was its chance to capitalise on those skills.
The Bank's operations are highly automated, and BankWest has for years focused on maintaining a skilled operations staff with a high degree of knowledge of the applications that they're operating. Whitehead says when things go wrong his operations people never simply follow a script. Instead, all staff members know how to diagnose problems and can understand the implications or repercussions of system faults and take the appropriate action to fix them.
Getting and keeping some of the best IT people Perth can offer is one of the advantages that comes with being one of the top two or three IT organisations in the city, he says. Potential recruits and existing staff have always seen BankWest as a desirable place to work, not only because banking involves constant change but also because it typically embraces relatively large-scale technology. "Staff retention has been good. We've had a loyal workforce and their skills have grown over the years and I think that's been a big advantage," Whitehead says.
He says those staff - who had long recognised the bank would have to continue to take steps to improve its efficiency - have reacted enthusiastically to the chance to work for Unisys West. "I think there's always perhaps an element of feeling undervalued if you're working in a totally in-house environment. In addition, I think everyone really felt that some change was inevitable over time - just look at what all the other banks are doing," Whitehead says.
"The approach we came up with, which was to say, in effect, that we're going to commercialise our capability, was really a great compliment. It was effectively saying: 'you as a group of people are so strong we actually think we can build a customer proposition around your capabilities and the capabilities of the infrastructure'."
There was another reason why the move was so easy to sell to staff: it thrusts them to the centre of the business, Whitehead says. IT staff can never expect to be at the centre of the banking business the way Unisys West staff are central to the core business of the IT services company that has been created.
Whitehead says Unisys West draws on the combined skills of BankWest and Unisys to help clients move into the new economy. In that regard BankWest brings an edge to the new services company few competitors can match.
"Going back to the point in regard to the value chain in transaction processing, really a large part of banking is about helping customers do commercial transactions," Whitehead says. "As we provide the exchange of value, we're often also providing trust and security in terms of transactions, in terms of checking systems or credit card systems, and so on. We're providing the identification, authentication, security and trust into the transaction.
"Integrating our capabilities with an IT services supplier allows us to provide a greater part of that transactions processing value chain. It means we can say to our customer that we can provide the ability to process transactions in an IT sense and we can also integrate that into the payments systems and banking systems to provide a much stronger proposition."
There is also another factor. Whitehead says their reliance on EFTPOS and ATMs ensures banks have, at least over the last 15 to 20 years, recognised the importance of having extremely reliable systems. In the new economy, every organisation will find itself reliant on good infrastructure for a significant part of its business and needing the same availability characteristics, quality of data centres and the presence of hot backup sites. "I think one of the key propositions that we can provide is bank-quality transaction processing capability for companies," he says.
Merging the culture of an IT services supplier with that of a bank is proving an ongoing task which presents plenty of challenges. There are many areas of cultural divergence, Whitehead says. Take the fact that as a technology company many of the interactions between Unisys and its customers have been with the IT director or the CIO. By contrast, much of the bank's dialogue with its key customers tends to be through the chief financial officer or chief executive officer. In the case of a services company, those same people need to talk to a broader range of executives. Whitehead says it's one area where Unisys West's ability to combine the capabilities of its merged staff is likely to provide a major strength.
"We feel that there is an opportunity to build a unique culture and a unique capability in Unisys West. A lot of that is about communications," Whitehead says. "We're having regular meetings, educating people in the bank about the capabilities of Unisys West, getting their input in terms of how they can be leveraged directly and indirectly in the bank's business and looking at educating Unisys in terms of how the bank can assist in the business."
Another big challenge, perhaps the biggest facing former BankWest staff, is building an external customer service culture. Moving from being part of an organisation to being a service provider servicing multiple customers carries with it some responsibilities and an approach that's different from that demanded by a purely internal function. Learning those commercial disciplines and, indeed, building a commercial relationship between the bank and Unisys West is a key area of focus for the staff. On the other hand, staff joining Unisys West from Unisys find themselves suddenly thrust into a much smaller company where, while they still have access to the total resources of Unisys, the business relationship and marketplace proposition are very different.
Changing corporate cultures demands strong leadership; the fact that Unisys West has done so well to date, Whitehead says, is a tribute to one of Cox's great strengths as chief executive. Cox has been particularly interested in issues surrounding cultural change for many years and has been responsible for implementing culture changes in a couple of organisations within Unisys.
"The relationship between the two organisations is strong and we very much do share a vision as to what can be done in this market. I think a sign of the Unisys commitment is that this has the direct support of Unisys globally - right up to the president and CEO of Unisys, who became personally involved because it is seen as such a unique business model," Whitehead says.
Unisys West signed its first contract in November with the Western Australian Ministry of Justice for applications maintenance, enhancement and development along with other consulting services to support the operations and administration of courts within WA. It's a four-year, multimillion-dollar deal with an optional two-year extension.
The Ministry of Justice says it needed an outsource partner able to demonstrate an understanding of its courts administration services, and with which it could be confident about building a long-term business relationship. Unisys West also had to demonstrate proficiency in the support of existing applications and the development of new courts applications.
"Unisys West helps its customers provide improved, effective services. For the Western Australian Ministry of Justice, this means bringing global expertise in government and outsourcing and overlaying this with Australian knowledge and expertise, through the Unisys Justice and Public Safety program being delivered through Unisys West," Rosa says.
The contract highlights the company's ability in managing outsourced applications, building on the services Unisys West provides to other organisations such as the Education Department of Western Australia. Unisys West will now provide the Ministry with a contract service management facility and apply economies of scale. Using proven methodologies and project management expertise, Unisys West will focus on delivering business outcomes, and improved and consistent levels of service within an agreed service level framework.
Whitehead says like other customers the Ministry places high value on the fact that they're dealing with a company that has strong local routes and can leverage the credibility and trust that's associated with Bank West, as well as having access to the full capabilities of Unisys. He also says that is in keeping with the trend for banks, like everyone else, to compete for their space in the value chain by ensuring their relevance to customers.
"For our business and corporate customers, it's very much about helping them run their businesses. All the banks are providing a broad range of services. What we've seen is an opportunity for Bank West to really help our customers with technology as well.
"In fact, we see technology and transaction processing and banking so intertwined that I don't think you can provide as much value to your customers unless you're enabled to provide that integrated offering. I think it's a strong customer proposition and I think we were simply fortunate to have an area of strength where perhaps the motivation of other banks has been more in having an IT problem they need to solve."

Newsweek College Football Top 20 Rankings, Games to Watch For Week 8
By Scott McDonald On 10/17/21 at 6:06 PM EDT
Sports Georgia Alabama Crimson Tide
One week after moving to the No. 2 spot in almost every national poll, the Iowa Hawkeyes showed they probably didn't belong there. The Hawkeyes got beat, 24-7, at home Saturday by the unranked Purdue Boilermakers.
Iowa (5-1) dropped 11 spots to No. 13 in the latest Newsweek Top 20 college football ranking.
Georgia remains the top team after throttling Kentucky, 30-13. The Bulldogs looked dominant in all phases of the game. Georgia has a week off before facing rival Florida in what is formerly known as "The World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party."
The Cincinnati Bearcats moved to the No. 2 spot this week after handling Central Florida, 56-21. The only relatively close game this season for Cincinnati so far was an 11-point win at Notre Dame. The Bearcats likely need SMU to stay undefeated before the teams meet in late November. Otherwise, Cincinnati's schedule is less than desirable in the American Athletic Conference.
Oklahoma moves up to No. 3 after defeating TCU, and Alabama is now back to No. 4 after stomping Mississippi State, 49-9.
Michigan State leap frogs to No. 5 despite a lackluster, 20-15, win over Indiana. The Spartans are idle this week before hosting No. 6 Michigan on Oct. 30.
Oregon is the second-highest-ranked one-loss team (behind Alabama) at No. 7. The Ducks squeaked out a 24-17 win at home over Cal on Friday night, and they travel to face UCLA this Saturday.

Oklahoma State vaults three spots to No. 8 after an impressive come-from-behind win at Texas on Saturday. The Cowboys face a dangerous Iowa State squad this week. Penn State and Coastal Carolina round out the top 10.
The deck shuffled a little in the next 10, including San Diego State making its debut at No. 19. Auburn is back in at No. 20 after a 15-point win at Arkansas.
Arizona State and BYU both fell from the ranking after losses to unranked teams last week.
