Updates


Brian Donohue: A thrill to be asked your opinion on a national document working with 9,000 local health clinics for input. Do we have a 'consensus?' of 'what is F4H?  See Debategraph – also Sandy and Denise are working on 1 pager for Edison Awards. http://debategraph.org/Stream.aspx?nid=312656&vt=bubble&dc=focus


Garry Guan  Sophia Parker got me into her group, will be part of group for bid with Dept of HHS, as language support for grant on rural hospitals – providing expertise in language translation for non-English speakers. Interpreting in diff languages and sign language – conforms with American disability act.  Garry is a  member of the National Association for Patient Advocacy.  Passionate about language – digital coding for rare languages is essential for shrinking numbers of native speakers to keep in touch online. Garry has another idea to create something better than twitter and Facebook.  Would like to work with Denise: NPR story of someone who wrote his own obituary inspired Garry.  What about if we got a website for people to write

their own obituaries, not for the dead, but for the living?  If they don't like, they can write a better one for themselves- by changing their focus


Jim Caldwell: May have expertise of value to Garry as worked with the Unicode system on Unicode standards.  UTF-8 fonts


Bill English: Co-founder of Unicode group, was person who got their 501(c)3.

Stewart Brand's book 'The Whole Earth Discipline' - a lot of stats in this 09 book we should be interested in


Mei Lin: Organizing 40th anniversary of TCP-IP on May 10th.  Will be plenty of Google people there – will send out invites. Would like Garry to come to meet them to talk about the fonts. Alice Woo from Global Innovation Summit wants to start a chapter of F4H – she is on the board of a University in China.  International Chapters – put on the agenda for May 1st, meeting at Mei Lin's.


Denise O’Brien: DOME consulting has been officially chosen as Chinese'American CEO Association as their official PR firm. Wells Bring Hope.org that builds wells in West Africa.  Met and had dinner with 3 African Kings. 'Lessons from the Light' book is recommended


Jonathan Trent: A lot happening through internet connections, but also a great conversation with Jim Caldwell about opening up Chinese opportunities Joint Chinese American sustainability org.  Mutual acquaintance could be person on the ground in China to help build relationships (Guanxi) Also spoke with Stan Gould looking at possibility of moving this forward with student movement.  Has been trying to do that for a while - key is to get the right students and right organizations on board.  Not limited to US Universities – global!  Got Omega paper edited and will be published sometime.  Contacted people in South Africa. Will be speaking at  Edison Awards.


Sandy Bates: Edison Awards - April, 29th-30th.  Jonathan kicking off a discussion 'water is the next oil'  Another colleague leading  a panel on sustainability of water. Following day 'aging in place' with John Mattison of Kaiser on panel. Mei Lin will open her home on May 1st for SF Bay Area Franchise for Humanity Gathering. Continuing to work with Ricardo and Juliana from Brazil to get Design Echos USA franchise in the US. Mei Lin requests to have that posted on the F4H calendar. They will be doing workshops in SoCal and maybe Bay Area.


Kimberly Wiefling: Update on Ice cap. ICE911 - NASA planetary sustainability. Will use a new experimental tool called 'extra mile' to let ppl use their social network to spread the word. Allows posting up to once a week.


Kennan Salinero: Linda Stehali's work on Global Challenges for Wilson Center; also the AAAS panel for next winter in San Jose.


Stan Gould: Omega - introduced culture-change aspect in a movement-based format.  Jonathan Trent is  proposing this be a multi-disciplinary course project for students to pursue all aspects of Omega as a student lead project.


Michael Norwood: Spoke with Jack Park about SBIR grants. Very informative.  He said 'never apply for grant directly.' Contact the person that is the head of department, tell them you have a little bit different take on the direction they're taking, offer to send a white paper to them.  This technique as worked very well for me with investors - rarely asks for money, usually see if they're interested in what I’m doing. Raises money without going to VC’s and without going into competitions.  Show them who you are, what you have – who the people are – funders either naturally have an affinity for it or don't.


Denise:  Attract, don't attack.  As a writer, it's important to show yourself off.


We invite Denise for tips on how we can gracefully show off our skills.

 


Project Check In


Franchise for Humanity Protocols (4/8)

Protecting Trade Secrets in Public venues –you can talk ABOUT a secret without disclosing the secret. If it is a secret, don’t say it in a public form.

Its ok to “pass” on a question if asked to reveal confidential information – without any stigma

John Kelly supports Kimberly K in raising concern about awkwardness in not answering direct questions – as we want freedom to be be free wheeling and creative.

Proposal: Take public notes that can be edited, and address technical accuracy, as well as policy and ethics. Will prototype for 4/15Next TuesdayCall.

Global Health and Humanitarian Summit – Dr. Neil Shulman (4/1)

Humanitarian, MD at Emory University, Dr. Shulmanwrote 'Doc Hollywood.' His idea is to have non-profits get together and spearheaded 3 Global Health and Humanitarian Summits (GHHS).

This has huge potential because it brings together students and the nonprofits and doctors, a project that brings a lot of people together. Barbara Marx Hubbard spoke last year at the GHHS.
