When It Comes to Helping Others: Just Do It
“When It Comes to Helping Others: Just Do It - http://nyti.ms/lKb3oL”
"wo Kenyans and I later co-founded Carolina For Kibera to combine more opportunity with talent by investing in local leaders. We referred to our approach as “participatory development.” It’s a concept from anthropology that acknowledges that sustainable change must be driven from within communities. It can’t be imposed from the outside. I found this to be true in Kibera, where our organization now engages more than 50,000 people a year, and also in the Marines, where we continue to wrestle with how to build local capacity during counter-insurgencies.As broad as our networks become, depth still matters. Change still begins with small groups of committed citizens. For me, those groups took the form of teams of Marines, and two Kenyan doers born into conditions far different from my own. We formed relationships rooted in trust and integrity. But they wouldn’t have formed if we didn’t know how to listen to each other."
Carry the lesson to Haiti.
It is something that has not yet been tried.
I am not willing to go but I would sponsor a skilled kid for a year or two. Skills in both languages required. Understanding of NGOs helpful. Willingness to live cheap and talk about how to make development happen. I can provide A computer and an Internet connection, air fare, rent money and food money for the local market.

Hold the Halo
Somehow the Catholic faithful are supposed to believe that priests, or at least the better ones, are men with no sex drives. Is there such a thing? The fundamental hypocrisy of this central myth of priesthood rather taints the whole church. The pedophiles only intensify the taint. Were the Pope to adequately punish the pedophiles, he would still be ignoring the fundamental shaky ground on which this institution of priesthood stands."“For John Paul,” Berry told me just after returning from Good Friday services, “the priesthood had a romantic, chivalrous cast, and he could not bring himself to do a fearless investigation of the clerical culture itself.
“He was duped by Maciel, but he let himself be duped. When nine people accuse the guy of abusing them as kids, the least you can do is investigate.
“Cardinals and bishops had told him about the larger abuse crisis for years. And he was passive to an absolute fault. He failed in mountainous terms.”
Now the Vatican is like Wall Street, where companies give their most disgraced C.E.O.’s golden parachutes to make up for the stress of outside attack. Except the Vatican gives golden halos."
They are just playing with themselves.

Singapore Gets Wired for Speed
Singapore could soon be the first country blanketed with a fiber optic infrastructure so fast that it would enable the contents of a DVD to be downloaded in only a few seconds.
Censorship is easier if there is one central office and or central top down control.BitTorrent is a better system.The politics of communication is very much a work in progress.We may have to do without intellectual property.Copyleft is a better way to do some things.

Pennsylvania Schools’ Financing Fight Pits District Against ‘Charter on Steroids’
I am generally on the side of the public schools.
I still do not know enough about this situationto say what a just resolution could be.
$5000, per head management fee seems excessive.2800 X 5000.00 = $14,000,000 For management of two schoolslooks excessive.
