Free Webinar- Consulting-As-A-Service: Creating New IT Consulting Opportunities Using Cloud Services
Recently I've been working with quite a few clients who have been fighting to keep ahead of the enormous amount of unstructured data. For them, the challenge is that the economic crisis has resulted in massive layoffs, reassignment of responsibilities and altered business models. That leaves an enormous gap in their ability to respond to regulatory issues, reduce costs through operational efficiency, and in general maintain effective management of their IT resources.
Please join me for a discussion of this concept and a review of a possible software tool that can help us provide more effective client solutions. I've scheduled a webinar for February 9th, 2010 at 1pm EST to discuss this idea I'm developing. I'm hoping you can help clarify some of my thoughts and provide some critique of the process. As you know, my style is to make each of us better consultants by sharing our knowledge and abilities. I hope you can join me. A financial incentive will be offered to those who participate.

Psychiatrists in north India play a crucial role not only in processes of treatment, but also in legal matters related to marriage. This paper asks how certainties related to intimacy and trauma can be based on contradictory moral negotiations in the clinic. It considers a young woman under psychiatric evaluation in a case of contested marriage, re-imagining her story in several ways to ask how the intersections of law and medicine reveal tensions between different approaches to sex and trauma, creating conceptual and practical crises in the everyday lives of women patients.

Save the Date ladies...on Friday, February 12th, Chef German Lam is going to indulge us with our very own cooking class! German Lam is a pretty big name in the Boston cooking world, so we're very lucky to have him all to ourselves for an evening. (http://glamfoodsllc.com/) Eri has graciously offered her kitchen (and home) in Waltham. Let's plan to meet there at 7:30 and the cooking will begin at 8:00! The cost per person is $45 (which includes the yummy dinner we're going to cook) and the cost may even go down the more people we have. German has asked us what we would like to learn and cook on February 12. What will it be ladies? Do you want to perfect the omelet? Learn a few dinners you can put together in 20 minutes? Tell me your ideas! Eri's address will be sent to attendees prior to the meetup, and we ask that since this is at a private residence, if you are new to the group, that you attend at least one other meetup first.

Waltham Massachusetts was founded in eastern Massachusetts in 1636 and incorporated into a town in 1738 and then into a city in 1884. The Charles River cuts a path through the southern section of Waltham and has been used throughout its history for transportation and industry. Waltham is probably most historically famous for the Waltham Watch Factory that made its home on the banks of the Charles and was a pioneer company of the industrial revolution.
The Charles River has given way to Route 128, the main economic center of the city and has the second largest office market in the greater Boston area. Waltham has a diverse housing market with multi-family houses near the downtown section and single family neighborhoods along its borders.
Waltham is the home for higher education with two of the most prestigious colleges in the east - Bentley College and Brandeis University. The downtown section of Waltham hosts many diversified restaurants guaranteed to satisfy any craving or palette along with many retail establishments.
With all of these amenities and its convenient location just off Route 128 and its public transportation systems which include the commuter rail - Waltham is an especially pleasant place to live or work.
