This book was especially helpful for me as I'm new to the world of Libraries as a technology consultant. Some of the content of the book is started to feel a little outdated but such is the nature of trying to write about technology. Regardless, I remain grateful for having all this information conveniently compiled for my convenience.<br /><br />I'm very much looking forward to the follow-up book that has just recently been released.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1059730258">View all my reviews</a>http://www.kog.ca/2014/09/review-library-mashups-exploring-new.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Paul Fournier)1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7422048882373215358.post-1523550744625918Wed, 20 Feb 2013 20:24:00 +00002013-03-26T10:23:41.134-04:00FitnessHealthvacationSome firstsAhhhh!

Heilbroner</a><br /><br />My rating: <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/347273454">5 of 5 stars</a><br /><br /><br /><br />I picked up this book as part of the recommended reading in the first chapter of Richard W. Paul's Critical Thinking: Tools for Taking Charge of Your Professional and Personal Life. To be honest, I was skeptical that it would hold my interest long enough for me to read it in its entirety. I was pleasantly surprised. Not only did I enjoy the book immensely but I managed to read it cover to cover in less than a single day. True, the book is uncharacteristically small (a mere 118 pages) but my customary reading proficiency could easily stretch 118 pages over a couple of weeks. Most impressive of all is Robert Heilbroner's ability to clearly articulate a broad understanding of capitalism, the forces that drive it, the influence of politics on it (and vice versa), and the success and failure of the market system as the invisible hand that influences it to extrapolate some very sensible scenarios for the future.<br /><br />Most notable of all for me is the the possible further insights into Heilbroner's chapter on the market system that could be gained in light of Daniel Kahneman's prospect theory I recently discovered in his book Thinking, Fast and Slow. Something I might endeavor to explore when time permits.<br /><br />Finally Heilbroner's outline for a participatory economy seems to be a surprising accurate prediction of recent developments in how social media and crowd sourcing/funding have begun to appear on the economic landscape. Although it is still too early to tell these developments seem to indicate that we are starting to explore these avenues as possible alternatives to capitalism. Something he professed would not be viable in this century.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/347273454">View all my reviews</a>http://www.kog.ca/2012/06/review-21st-century-capitalism.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Paul Fournier)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7422048882373215358.post-1563064814978652530Mon, 04 Jun 2012 23:58:00 +00002014-11-26T07:36:52.747-05:00BooksReview: The Pillars of the Earth<br /><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5043" style="float: left; padding-right: 20px;"><img alt="The Pillars of the Earth" border="0" src="http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1309285683m/5043.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5043">The Pillars of the Earth</a> by <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/3447">Ken Follett</a><br /><br />My rating: <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/329615807">4 of 5 stars</a><br /><br /><br /><br />Pretty interesting read. Follett's characters were surprisingly complex. Many of the protagonists felt like they were teetering on the brink of becoming major antagonists through-out the book. The intricate political maneuvering often pushing characters in directions they themselves were often surprised at.<br /><br />Follett also seems to describe scenes of rape, animal torture, violence, and breast fondling with particular skill. I almost put down the book a few times to recover from a particularly gruesome passage...<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/329615807">View all my reviews</a>http://www.kog.ca/2012/06/review-pillars-of-earth.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Paul Fournier)1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7422048882373215358.post-7519826312009966165Sun, 13 May 2012 13:27:00 +00002014-11-26T07:37:07.373-05:00BooksReview: L'hiver de force<br /><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1676369" style="float: left; padding-right: 20px;"><img alt="L'hiver de force" border="0" src="http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1186693157m/1676369.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1676369">L'hiver de force</a> by <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/457158">Réjean Ducharme</a><br /><br />My rating: <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/313733288">4 of 5 stars</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%A9jean_Ducharme" target="_blank">Réjean Ducharme</a> continuously surprises me with the richness of his text. Every sentence in the book is thick with meaning, playfulness and a dark sense of humor that I cannot help but enjoy.<br /><br />The main characters are enigmatic and unpredictable but completely consistent in their rejection of everything that can be considered the norm. They escape being discarded as angry 30 somethings thanks to a few displays of innocence brought forward by their inability to navigate adult situations.

The chapters are brief and to the point easily making this an enjoyable reference book to casually return to when needed.<br /><br /> <br/><br/><br /> <a href='http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/231413140'>View all my reviews</a><br /> http://www.kog.ca/2011/11/you-are-not-so-smart-why-you-have-too_21.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Paul Fournier)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7422048882373215358.post-3951360662908198848Mon, 03 Oct 2011 10:22:00 +00002011-10-03T06:22:42.993-04:00ExerciseNaturevacationSome new PanoramasFrom my time at Mont-Tremblant and Lac-de-L'Orignal.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CO5tJGmYU6Q/TodXvb5YLNI/AAAAAAAABmw/s1ZFtg4dRKk/s1600/CarcanTrail03.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="165" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CO5tJGmYU6Q/TodXvb5YLNI/AAAAAAAABmw/s1ZFtg4dRKk/s400/CarcanTrail03.png" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-u0hz84pKTjQ/TodX-_CivFI/AAAAAAAABm0/Zn2uVB2MG5I/s1600/LacDuChevreuil.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="82" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-u0hz84pKTjQ/TodX-_CivFI/AAAAAAAABm0/Zn2uVB2MG5I/s400/LacDuChevreuil.png" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0GLseM6G3ms/TomK4Y1pnTI/AAAAAAAABnM/WW-C7WMl6bI/s1600/Lac+de+L%2527Orignal+Morning+Mist.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="101" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0GLseM6G3ms/TomK4Y1pnTI/AAAAAAAABnM/WW-C7WMl6bI/s400/Lac+de+L%2527Orignal+Morning+Mist.png" width="400" /></a></div><br />http://www.kog.ca/2011/10/some-new-panoramas.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Paul Fournier)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7422048882373215358.post-955894015905332532Tue, 20 Sep 2011 13:11:00 +00002011-09-20T09:40:36.664-04:00ArtFunnyScienceFirst StripHere is my first go at making a strip.

I beleive that you have had phone conversation with my partner, copied here, on May 17 regarding how we should be proceeding with our claim submission.<br /><br />As instructed we have contacted a repair service to request an estimate and have had a preliminary visit by one of their specialists to asses the damages. The specialist has assured us that he will be able to provide us with a final estimate at some point in the coming week after having verified the availability and cost of parts. Please note that we have already disbursed $142.41 in fees for this visit. These fees will be applicable towards the cost of the repair should we proceed with it.<br /><br />We hope that you will find the steps we have taken to date to be satisfactory and in line with your expectations of how we should be handling the claim. Please let us know if we are missing anything needed for a quick resolution to this unfortunate incident.<br /><br />kind regards,<br />Paul Fournier<br /><br /><a name='more'></a><br /><hr /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b45f06;">Ms. Smith responded that I should also include some pictures of the couch damages with my claim and reminded me that it would take 3-4 weeks to process the cheque once the claim had been approved.&nbsp;</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b45f06;"><br /></span><br />Sent: 06/07/2011 05:34 PM<br />Dear Ms. <i>Smith</i>,<br /><br />I have just received the estimate from <i>Atelier Johnson</i> regarding the repair. Unfortunately it seems that it is not possible to order the necessary parts and Mr. <i>Johnson</i> advises that a complete replacement is the only possible way of restoring our new sofa and love seat to their former state. I have attached his insurance claim form to this email for you to review and I invite you to contact him directly should you have any questions about his findings. You will be able to find the estimate on the second worksheet of the excel document which also acknowledges that we paid $142.41 for the inspection and report.<br /><br />As requested I have also attached a zipped archive of the pictures we took of the damages that were caused by our pets after being treated with your company's product. Also included in the archive is a scanned copy of the receipt for the sofa and love seat at the time of purchase, totaling $2,751.22 (incl. delivery).<br /><br />Please let us know if you require any additional information or if you would like us to take additional steps. We look forward to hearing from you.<br /><br />Kind regards,<br />Paul Fournier<br /><br /><hr /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b45f06;">Ms. Smith then informed me that the company imposed a limit of $2,500 for a repair claim and asked for confirmation of whether or not we wanted to accept their offer. &nbsp;I debated seriously whether or not I should try to pursue the matter or if I should just accept. &nbsp;I opted to at least try to politely point out some of the flaws in their thinking.</span><br /><br />Sent: 06/09/2011 06:04 AM<br />Dear Ms. <i>Smith</i>,<br /><br />Thank you for getting back to us so promptly.<br /><br />While we appreciate the fact that the final figure of $2,893.63 (including the cost of the estimate) may be unusually high we are not sure we understand the logic of limiting the reimbursement to $2,500.00. In the end we still find ourselves, should we accept your offer, in a position where we are "out of pocket" for $393.63 as a direct result of the lack of warning in the documentation that comes with your company's product.<br /><br />I should also point out that we are not discussing a repair but rather a replacement due to the fact that we are unable to obtain the necessary parts as reported in Mr. <i>Johnson'</i>s estimate. This, despite the fact that the couch is only 4 months old.<br /><br />Again, we are not necessarily trying to negotiate a higher reimbursement. We would simply like to understand the logic that is being applied in making the decision of limiting the maximum claim amount as you propose. If the explanation is sound we will gladly accept.<br /><br />Any insight would be greatly appreciated.<br /><br />Kind regards,<br />Paul Fournier<br /><br /><hr /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b45f06;">Finally, a happy ending to the exchange with Ms. Smith letting us know that they have agreed to pay the full amount.</span><br /><br />Sent: 06/10/2011 05:46 PM<br />Dear Ms. <i>Smith,</i><br /><br />That is good news. We thank you for the consideration you have shown our request regarding this matter.
