Open Government Panel at 3 PM Today

I'm generally not one for pimping panels (okay, okay, unless I'm on them), but I really do want to get the word out about this one. The Center for Strategic & International Studies is hosting a panel on "open innovation in government" at 3 PM today. I know—nothing like a handful of government bureaucrats quoting from white papers to liven up an otherwise drab, spring day. But if you're open gov geek (and isn't every red-blooded American?) this is a must-see. It features interesting thinkers ("open government champions," according to the press release) from an array of federal agencies, including USAID, NASA, and the State Department.

But most importantly, Beth Noveck, the New York Law School prof and longtime open government theorist, will be moderating. Noveck broke open gov ground with her Peer-to-Patent program (featured in—shameless plug alert—my crowdsourcing book), and is currently serving as the President's director of open government initiatives. She has consistently proven to have one of the most sophisticated visions of how government could use technology to collaborate with citizens, and her presence in the executive branch speaks well of the White House's genuine belief in technology's democratizing potential.

Appropriately, the panel will be streamed live, and Noveck will be taking questions from the peanut gallery (which is to say, us). Hint: Don't ask about marijuana legalization.

My friend's look makes me realize that tears have formed in my eyes. "You'll never regret it," I say finally.

And so it happened. Just as Hare was dropping off to sleep, there was a boom, boom, booming across the plains. "Oh no!" he sighed. "Why am I http://www.nikeairjordanshop.com/air-jordan-6-c-6.html
always right?" He flattened his ears, closed his eyes tighter and pretended to snore.

The Emperor spent hours every morning getting dressed. He had to choose his outfit, preferable a new one, and the shoes and wig to http://www.abercrombie-newyork.com/abercrombie-womens-c-37.html
go with it. Mid-morning, he invariably changed into something more formal for his short meetings with his councillors and advisors.

However, the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look http://www.cheaplouboutins.com at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking, to tell him that he is attentive.
