Transforming our Community 2006: Arts and CultureSubmitted by Sudhir Kade on Wed, 01/04/2006 - 11:35.
I thought I'd post a few personal focus areas regarding 2006 and change efforts for the region. We have so much to do, in so many areas. In the spirit of the holistic view of sustainabilty and quality of life - I post my wish list for 2006 using our six-sphere framework: these are broad outcomes, but i believe we can define specific action plans as discussion, dialogue, and inquiry continue. Change, after all, begins the moment we ask the question!

Rockefeller Greenhouse poinsettia display: only a few days left to see it!Submitted by Evelyn Kiefer on Sat, 12/31/2005 - 01:22.
In late November the Rockefeller Greenhouse turned into a sea of poinsettias, so colorful, so beautiful, it's almost beyond belief! I would n't try to count them but I would guess that there are close to 1,000 poinsettias of various sizes placed among the cacti and tropical plants that live in the greenhouse year-round.

Blue Dog rises to raise money for Red CrossSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Thu, 12/22/2005 - 15:25.
Anyone who has spent much time in Louisiana knows the Blue Dog of artist George Rodrigue. A friend of mine sent me a link to a website for a signed poster by Rodrigue raising money for the Red Cross Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. It's a classic image and worthy cause so I thought I'd pass it along. You can learn more and order the poster here. ( categories: )

NutcrackerSubmitted by robataka on Thu, 12/08/2005 - 07:08.
My daughter is going with her grandmother to The Nutcracker on Saturday night at the Allen Theatre at Playhouse Square. For my daughter, moving to Cleveland will be a huge advantage over Okinawa (Prefecture Government, Tourist Bureau, Wikipedia ) in that she will have vastly more opportunity to see professional performances.

Gift giving can take many manifestations, tangible and intantible. The most valuable are sometimes less obvious. Children, for example, revel in things in which they can participate and activity can assume many guises. Advertising pushes products or activities but what about unpromoted activites? The internet offers both small and large entrepreneurs a level playing field by enabling them equal access to consumers. Thus the internet becomes the zone for entrepreneurs and participation. Search engines connect everyone to everything, creating great opportunity. Think how this changes the way children and their parents "shop." Two things are true: It will never be the same but how and what we "shop" for is still being defined as an extension of the old ways. Consider this, the early auto-mobiles' design were simply motor-powered carriages. The same holds for innovation today: the great spurt in innovation is yet to come, and its arrival will be hastened as more people participate on the internet. Search engines enable people to leverage their intellectual property by lowering the barriers to consumers' access to products and services.
