style of the hat that represents my identity, I chose the beanie. While formerly restricted to mainly hipsters, they’re now open, or more wearable, to everyone. I chose this style as beanies are quite comfortable, and that is my preferred state. Additionally, it is a pretty plain style compared to others as I don’t like to stand out too much. They also keep your head warm, and I’d much rather be warm than freezing. In addition, the color of my beanie would be black. Not only does black go with…
early 2014, Cox Communications (also mentioned as ‘Cox’ in this article), the third largest cable and broadband company in the United States, was just a RHEL and JBoss EAP customer for Red Hat. They had invested about 1 million USD in JBoss EAP and weren’t familiar with any other middleware products offered by Red Hat. Today, along with EAP, Cox’s investment in JBoss includes Fuse, A-MQ, BPM, and BRMS. The account has grown by 300% to 4 million USD in one year through JBoss product purchases and…

this some incredibly dumb, or perhaps brave, wizard, or was it just a dumb normal person? “Wanna go?” Edie asked in a normal voice as the boy reached her. The boy, who was tall and lanky with lots of missing teeth, and the ones still there mottled black and brown and yellow, responded with a less-than-toothy grin. His hair was the same way as Edie, blond-turned-brown with dirt and grease, hacked away like someone had went at them with an…
Rube Goldberg and Beyond The objective of this essay is to ask a question that you would like to answer as part of the scholarship application. My question is “What is an example of a creative approach you took to accomplish a project you were assigned?” As a high school physics student in my junior year, I was placed on a team and tasked with building a Rube Goldberg machine that could move an object 20 feet. I started the process by watching several YouTube videos that demonstrated the…
Will Gunderson was a good boy, as boys go. He grew up in the high plains of Colorado where cattle bellowed and grazed, and cowboys rode through his small town, donned with spurs, chaps, and big wide hats. He was full of dreams, fed by the white billowing clouds that danced in the bright blue sky above his house, and he spent his days riding his pony over the big meadows near the edge of town, and as he rode across the meadow, he was anywhere, but, home. William lived in a parsonage with…

sometimes allows systematic discussion with reduced conflict. Allowing process owners to criticize while they participate in creating efficiencies that will affect their work can often create natural stakeholder buy in. Edward DeBono’s six thinking hats methodology is helpful for fostering conversations about implementing a permanent change that has proven to work. Often this technique is used for brainstorming, but I think it can be applied for engaging the process owners to develop and…
