The Peace Parks Foundation
is an international, neutral body that coordinates the creation of
"
Peace
Parks" -- a more foundation friendly name for
"Transfrontier Conservation Areas." Peace Parks are defined
as "relatively large protected areas, which straddle
international frontiers between two or more countries and cover
large-scale natural systems encompassing one or more protected
areas."
Executive Vice-Chairman Willem van Riet of South Africa, in San Diego,
California, this month to receive the
Preside
ntial Award from GIS software giant ESRI, is that Peace Parks
remove the fences of international frontiers -- the "scars of
history" -- to let elephants resume their natural migratory
paths. An early success of this idea was
profiled in full and stunning color by the
National Geographic in 2001.

"It has always been my belief that various industries have
actually earned more revenue as a direct result of file sharing, and

hurts the industry. So if you would like to contribute, click submit

09/19/2004 05:50 PM
Some people come out
over the web, others have been married or given birth.
For me - I'm going to deal with the
death of my father.
He died while I was in Europe and I choice to deal with his death
until now - as I was in the middle of a micro-content roadshow - my self-titled quest to create
new kinds of standards - surrounding people, reviews, media, events
and listings.
I decided that he would have wanted it this way.
I needed to give myself some time to get over the intitial shock
that my father was dead and that I wasn't by his bedside when he
passed. I had just seen him a few days earlier - as I came through
Chicago on my way up to Michigan to be with Lisa, Mimi and Lucy (they
were staying at her mother's house in Grand Haven, Michigan - right on
a bluff overlooking the lake.)
I could have gone back. I could have blown off the roadshow and
stayed by his bedside. But what's the point? Would it have made his
passing any easier? Maybe.
Would it have helped me deal with his dying. Probably have made it
worse.
Would it have helepd the family deal with
Was I afraid to sit there and watch him die? Hell yes!
So we headed to NYC for dinner #1 - and a party after at my friend
Kenny Shaffer's. Kenny's TV2Me brings U.S. television
signals to Monte Carlo and Moscow for rich gamblers who can afford
cable TV accounts in NYC. He'd like to be able to do this
legally.
I got to meet Scott Mathews

I got to meet some video
bloggers getting ready to
deal with the RNC. And we stayed at Marc Barrot's apartment -

Founding Father

"He could separate
personal honor from political convictions. A recurring theme of
his career? The superiority of forgiveness over revenge".
Ron Chernow's
biography of
Alexander
Hamilton puts "
the father of American
government" -- the illegitimate orphan from the West Indies
who rose to become George Washington's most trusted adviser
only to be
snared in a sex scandal and
killed in a duel by Vice President Aaron Burr -- under a new light.
Thomas Jefferson after all, his great adversary, foresaw a nation of
independent yeomen farmers. It was Hamilton who
foresaw a powerful nation of cities, banks, stock, exchanges.
When Jeffersonians favored congressional power, Hamilton
argued vigorously that the executive branch was
the chief
engine of the government. When the Constitution was ratified over
the objections of anti-Federalists, Gore Vidal relates, “
a parade featuring a
ship called The Hamilton, on a float, sailed triumphantly along Wall
Street as its ghost still does today.”
Anecdote: during
the Constitutional Convention of 1787, Franklin suggested that there
be a pause for prayer. Many delegates supported the move, except for
Hamilton.
"He did not see the necessity of calling in foreign aid."

The Latest On The Father Of The DVD
The Latest On The Father Of The DVD
06/28/2004 05:22 AMA year and a half ago, we wrote about
Warren
Lieberfarb getting fired from Warner Brothers. Lieberfarb is
often credited as the "father of the DVD," who fought long and hard to
get everyone on the same page to offer the DVD. Newsweek is now
running an article looking at the story a year and a half later, where
Lieberfarb is still
not particularly
liked in the industry he helped save. The article also has the
overall background story of how he got warring parties together in
order to build the DVD. While he's still fighting with Time Warner
over his compensation, he's now working for Microsoft on the next
generation of DVD technologies. It would have been a lot more
impressive if he would have taken his deal making skills and energy to
get the entertainment industry to realize the power of peer-to-peer
networking, rather than just trying to rehash his last success story.
The story is positioned as if Lieberfarb realized the importance of
getting everyone together on this particular "disruptive" technology.
It's too bad he doesn't appear to be paying attention to the much
bigger disruptive technology that's out there.
