Les réseaux sociaux, phénomènes de l’année 2009, ont logiquement des effets sur la mise à jour du New Oxford American Dictionary. C’est ainsi que des mots et expressions devenus courants dans Facebook ou Twitter débarquent dans le plus célèbre dictionnaire anglophone. Exemples :

“Unfriend” est un terme (verbe) utilisé par les membres de Facebook quand ceux-là retirent une personne de leur liste d’amis. Un mot anglais que même certains internautes français utilisent.

“Hashtag” : petit mot précédé d’un dièse qui définit le sujet d’un message (tweet) envoyé sur twitter. Le hashtag permet ainsi de regrouper les conversations par sujet.

Le dictionnaire accueille également “intexticated” (automobiliste distrait par l’utilisation de son mobile) n’a pas d’équivalent français. Netbook (petit PC portable à bas coût) et sexting (SMS ou MMs à caractère sexuel) sont en revanche utilisés sur notre territoire.

En France, les Larousse et autres Robert ont eux aussi accueilli de nouveaux mots directement issus des Nouvelles Technologies de l’Information et de la Communication (NTIC). Dans les éditions 2010, on peut désormais retrouver des termes comme Buzz, Geek, Web 2.0, Mobinaute, Peer-to-peer, Webtélé, Webradio, Blacklister, e-book  Hameçonnage, Multijoueurs, Adresse IP, Wi-Max ou e-learning. Des termes assez généraux, moins pointus que les nouveaux venus du Oxford, et à la définition “officielle” parfois un peu timide…

Mais en réalité, a-t-on le réflexe d’ouvrir un dictionnaire papier pour découvrir ou vérifier la définition de mots si nouveaux ? Des mots et expressions largement expliquées dans des espaces numériques gratuits fort bien documentés au premier rang desquels on retrouve le fameux projet encyclopédique Wikipedia. Pour le mot “Geek” par exemple, si la définition du Larousse reste très limitée voire incomplète, Wikipedia permet faire la différence entre “geek” “technophile” et “nolife”.

Man is…

…To me, the best and most basic outfit that defines a man is a suit. A really really good suit. It smacks of masculinity and maturity.
The tie is optional because nothing beats a well-cut black suit and white shirt. I chose these cuff links because even with a ‘conventional’ outfit, it’s good to let a bit of personality shine through. And as some of you may know, I heart Tommy Lee Jones, so who better to model the outfit. – Miss Nifty, United States.

Man is…

…A friend… a boyfriend… a partner… a husband… a father… a son… a grandson… a grandfather… a brother …an uncle… a nephew. We could have one or most of the above and we are lucky to have them in our lives…no matter how perfect or imperfect they are. – Prima Dona, United States.

Man:

The moment I saw this challenge it immediately made me think of Hugh Jackman. Not just because of the obvious physical reasons, but because to me he is the quintessential man: He is a modern day Renaissance man who is not afraid to try new things. He is also a great father and husband who loves his family.He knows who he is and has a confidence that is never arrogant or cocky. I had the great fortune to meet Mr. Jackman earlier this month in New York and he was exactly what he he seems like: Jovial, friendly, gracious and yes, very tall and very hot! Man to me is someone who embodies all the things we love about the male species: Primal sex appeal, the love and need to protect, a genuine respect and for women, and confidence that comes not from how much money they make and what they own, but a true sense of self. – Ameerah26, United States.

Man:

…Their puzzle piece “A” is a lovely match for our puzzle piece “B”. – Powder Puff, United Kingdom.

Man is…

“Some men break your heart in two,
Some men fawn and flatter,
Some men never look at you;
And that cleans up the matter.”
-Dorothy Parker

A gentleman is simply a patient wolf. ~Lana Turner

It’s not the men in my life, it’s the life in my men. ~Mae West

Men are like a fine wine. They start out like grapes, and it’s our job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something you’d like to have dinner with. ~Author Unknown (Quoted by Jen1987, United States)

Man is…

…Masculine, strong and tough. – AudreySoh1.

Man is…

…This guy is MY definition of The MAN! – Natural Born Styler, Greece.

A man is…

…Not perfect, but nor are women.
A man is strong, confident, Byronic and sure of who he is and what he wants. He feigns interest in topics that don’t interest him to please you – and by default please himself – however, he is charming and sexy enough to get away with such a falsity. He is generous and intelligent and makes you laugh, he’s a little bit naughty (but that is required) and he says sorry when he needs to (even if he knows he is right). A man is always willing to compromise and he is not afraid of the ‘triple-threat’ (a woman who is smart, pretty and independent). – AllieHarriet, Australia.

Man:

…There is a french expression that says: ” Une main de fer, dans un gant de velour” that means ” A steel hand in a velvet glove” …That’s how a real man should be (and that’s how my man is ;p )… – Badrouchka, Morocco.

Man is…

…Easy, Simple, Loving, Sweet, Respectful, Nice, Romantic, all for one thing…sex, sex, and more sex! – HarperLeo, United States.

A man is…

…Someone who is not afraid just to wear a white tee. He is confident enough to be casual but still always appropriate. loyal but still a strong presence. traditional yet fresh. They know what is important in life. This is a true man, if only there were enough to go round. – Aribar2.

Men are…

…Complex in their simplicity, sort of how women are simple in their complexity. they like a woman as she is, adding fake things to her character is only masking, not removing. my boyfriend loves…

- my puppy and how i become like a child in her presence
- when my skin smells good and is soft
- my adoration for seinfeld
- when i wear comfortable shoes so i’m not complaining the whole day
- comfortable clothes that he can tell i move in with ease and pleasure
- a good cocktail and seeing me get a buzz
- candle smells

just to name a few – Dolores Haze, United States.

Men are…

…Like pumpkins. It seems like all the good ones are either taken or they’ve had everything scraped out of their heads with a spoon. – Miss Bea Heyvin, United States.

Man is…

…Someone who can stand by you. This picture means a lot to me. My man didn’t want to stand by me. He says, “Marry me” and then he hides. – Blondilicious.

Man:

…You get a call… He’ll be waiting at a certain bar. You put on your nicest lingerie and just your overcoat… You go into the dark night to meet him …. The one who gives you butterflies … Who makes you feel wild…. That’s my definition of a man. – Vicky1975, United Kingdom.

Man is…

…Mind-boggling! They have the ability to look dead sexy (day or night) with such little effort but women have to work hard to look like they didn’t even try. I’m merely focusing on clothing here, but I think that’s why the menswear trend is so popular, because all a guy has to do to stop our hearts, is step out in relaxed jeans and a v-neck tee, or for evening, it’s always a great tux. And I will admit to swooning over both the guy and their clothes, because the simple fact is I want the guy AND I want to be able to wear clothes like he does.
So my point is, Man is mind-boggling in his ability to make us want every aspect of his being inside and out….and don’t get me started on scruffy facial hair just making me swoon even more. SO not fair.

On a broader note, man is always the reason behind why we shiver…good and bad…and oh how we love the good

PS: This photo was a little something I put together in Photoshop…pretty self explanatory… – MashiaraQCS, United States.

Man:

There are so many things I can say about men. I really love them with all their sexiness and ruggedness.
Long hair, short hair, facial hair or clean cut. A man protects his family, wears boxer briefs , treats his woman like a queen, remembers the little things that make you happy, smells good, likes to cuddle and should be your best friend!! – Marsoline, United States.

Thanks to all the fabulous ladies who have participated in the challenge.

First I was looking up Jean Piaget, then I ran across the familiar Howard Gardner, and I followed the link that sent me to this page featuring different people’s answers to the question: What have you changed your mind about?

I just wanted to point out the post by Gardner because I like this definition of the word paragon:

“In the term of Dean Keith Simonton, a paragon is someone whom one does not know personally but who serves as a virtual teacher and point of reference.”

A sexy new music video from Beyoncé and Lady Gaga.

The song is called ‘Video Phone’.

I love how provocative the outfits are….this is Beyoncé on fire…and we already know Lady Gaga likes to literally set the stage on fire.

When you compare the average cost of flatscreen HDTV of years past to the reduced prices of flatscreen HDTV today, the comparison makes it seem like now is a great time to upgrade your television to an HDTV. This certainly is true! Even though HDTV hasn’t been around for all that long, the major reduction in prices that has occurred over recent years means that many people are switching over from low definition to the great world of high definition.

L’édition 2010 du Larousse accueille (enfin!) la définition du mot buzz..

Buzz: n.m. (mot angl., bourdonnement). Forme de publicité dans laquelle le consommateur contribue à lancer un produit ou un service via des courriels, des blogs, des forums ou d’autres médias en ligne. – Par ext. Rumeur, retentissement médiatique, notamm. autour de ce qui est perçu comme étant à la pointe de la mode (événement, spectacle, personnalité, etc.). Le film a fait un énorme buzz.

Cette définition est cependant un peu restrictive! Après quelques recherches, on peut trouver des définitions plus pointues:

Le terme buzz est un terme anglophone signifiant bourdonnement.

Le buzz est souvent confondu avec le marketing viral. Le buzz est en réalité uniquement une technique du marketing viral dans le but de créer une rumeur ou une forte agitation médiatique avant la sortie d’un produit, d’un film… C’est donc tout simplement pour faire du « bruit », pour faire parler les consommateurs d’un produit ou d’un service.

Il entretient le mystère et suscite des interrogations. Le buzz peut parfois démarrer plusieurs mois avant le commencement de l’événement. Internet est un mode de transmission idéal pour le buzz. S’il est lancé correctement, il peut rendre un produit célèbre avant même sa sortie.

On peut aussi parler de quelque chose ayant fait son buzz quand il s’agit d’un contenu (vidéo ou audio) qui aura été ébruité le plus possible au point d’avoir été vu par beaucoup de gens en un temps très court.

Le buzz va donc promouvoir une action, un produit, un service ou un événement en s’appuyant en outre sur l’aspect Web 2.0 (notion de participation).

Another interesting scenario….

I was taught this year that when people come into your space it is because they want something from you.

Are you looking for a clear definition of corporate culture? You need the right place!

I have developed a definition of corporate culture after nearly 20 years of cooperation with organizations and especially from the perspective of an anthropologist as well as a strategy consultant with an MBA in Finance.

The easiest way is to think of corporate culture that there is an energy field that determines how people act and think and see the worldaround them. I often compare culture to electricity. Culture is powerful and invisible and its implications are far reaching. Culture is an energy force that through thinking, behavior and identity is woven of people within the group.

Corporate culture is created naturally and automatically. Every time people come together with a common goal is creating the culture. This group of people could be a family, neighborhood, project team or company. Culture is created automaticallyfrom the combined thoughts, energies and attitudes of people in the group.

I've been involved with entrepreneurs and venture capitalists in start-up companies. You want to work on the corporate culture once the company is profitable or "in the black." It's much harder to change the corporate culture when they want incurred when an active corporate culture they create from the beginning.

The CompanyCulture determines the energy sector of a company dress code, work environment, hours, rules for getting ahead and forward, is considered as the business world, is what value is estimated, and much more.

Any company or organization has many corporate cultures. For example, the marketing department and the technical department have very different corporate cultures, both from the entire organizational culture influences. Manytimes these two sub-cultures collide.

Culture is reflected in the visible and invisible ways. Some expressions of corporate culture are easily observed. You can see the dress code, work environment, benefits, and the titles in a company. This is the surface layer of the culture. These are just some of the most visible manifestations of culture.

Surface layer of Corporate Culture: Visible Expressions

Dress Code · · work · benefits · Perks · discussions ·Work / Life Balance · Title & Job Descriptions · organizational structure · Relationships

The far more powerful aspects of corporate culture are invisible. The cultural core of beliefs, values, norms, paradigms, worldviews, moods, internal conversations together, and private conversations of people who are part of the group. This is the basis for all actions and decisions in a team, department or organization.

Core layer of corporateCulture: Invisible Manifestations

· Values · private conversations (with self or confidants) · visible · rules Attitudes · faith · worldviews · moods and emotions · Unconscious Interpretations · standards · paradigms · assumptions

Business leaders often assume that their companies have the vision, values and strategic priorities for the culture of their company synonymous. Unfortunately, too often, the vision, values and strategic priorities, just wordshang on a plaque on the wall.

Corporate culture is really the container for the vision, mission and values. It is not synonymous with them. In a thriving profitable company, the employees were the values that embody vision and the strategic priorities of the company.

What leads to this embodiment (or lack of embodiment) is the corporate culture energy field that psyche of the people, bodies, conversations and actions penetrate.
Companies must have a good definition ofCorporate culture to change before they begin to understand how the corporate culture.

Les usagers des services publics sont multiples. Leur position dépend du point de vue que nous adoptons. On peut les regarder selon leur âge, leur catégorie socio-professionnelle, leur genre…

Nous proposons une typologie inspirée des travaux du sociologue Italien Guido MARTINOTTI :

• les résidents,
• les pendulaires,
• les personnes en déplacement ponctuel pour raisons professionnelles (à entendre au sens large : les salariés, les chercheurs d’emploi), les transitaires,
• les touristes.

Au risque d’affaiblir la portée générale de cette typologie nous voudrions ajouter :

• les nouveaux arrivants (pour cause de mobilité professionnelle notamment, qui sont des résidents sans encore en être totalement et qui de ce fait n’ont pas les mêmes besoins, surtout si cette situation est appelée à se répéter tout au long de la carrière professionnelle)
• les invisibles (les travailleurs de l’ombre – la nuit ou tôt le matin -, les « oubliés » des débats politiques, les surfeurs du web qui utilisent le territoire à distance)
• Les co-producteurs de services 2.0 (un exemple ici)

Cette typologie pourra sembler un peu “fourre-tout”, mais elle nous paraît renvoyer à la situation actuelle puisqu’elle définit les usagers non pas à partir de leurs caractéristiques physiques (âge, sexe) ou sociales, mais à partir de ce qu’ils font du et au sein du territoire.

Vaste question… Des usagers rapportés ou embedded au territoire ? Répondre à cette question c’est faire une place à l’innovation des usagers eux mêmes, c’est organiser les services des collectivités de manière à être en capacité d’intégrer ces innovations en plaçant le curseur à l’équilibre entre intérêt général et particularités créatrices.

On voit bien aussi que la notion même de client est ici totalement inopérante car beaucoup trop pauvre pour rendre compte des questions qui se posent. Le client achète un service ou fait défection (voir A.O HIRSCHMAN). Il prend rarement la parole pour défendre un produit. Le service public par sa nature même de bien commun appelle plus souvent une prise de parole (qui peut aller s’exprimer jusque dans le vote, c’est là toute la différence). C’est à nous, fonctionnaires et élus, de savoir écouter et de proposer des organisations adaptées.

Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

For instance…  THIS Thanksgiving (Happy Thanksgiving by the way), you are NOT going to eat as much and give yourself that uncomfortable feeling for the night that you do every other year.  Unfortunately, you get to watching the football games, maybe turn on a basketball game, you continue to eat the snacks that are put out before dinner, then dinner is served and you don’t want to feel like a bad guest, so you fill your plate and eat a great dinner.  Then, right after dinner you find yourself lounging in the Lazy-Boy chair moaning and groaning…

Sound familiar?  Has your company continued to try the same things that have gotten you to the point you are at as a company – only this time, for some reason, it will work better!!

How frustrating is it for you to continue to develop business or product or marketing plans for a specific product or company only to see the company fall back into the same trap that has gotten it to where you are now?

Sometimes the best thing for a company to do is get someone from the outside to look objectively at your business and pay them to tell you the truth from how things look from the outside.  Sometimes people are too worried about their job, don’t like conflict, not good at communicating, etc.  Whatever the reason, sometimes the best thing for your company is to hear the truth from someone who is not attached to your business.

HD-DVD players work better with high definition DVDs that store up to two hours of 720p or 1080i on their discs.
VCR players that play VHS tapes display images that are 250-line interfaced. The next generation video players after VCRs were standard DVD players. They usually display a 480-line interfaced image on the screen. In the case of high definition DVD players, we find 480-line image which implements progressive scan method.

High definition DVD players present the output in digital format from the data or information stored in digital format, and this makes the conversion process quite simple and smooth. If high definition discs are played in HD-DVD players, then great clarity and superb sound can be achieved.

Official SavingCymbria Iverson Tribute ~We'll miss you!~

The husband and I got into a heated debate last night over Allen Iverson’s retirement. I argued that ’ego’ had to have been a factor in the gifted basketball player’s decision to leave the game. This accusation came across as cruel blasphemy to the diehard fan beside me on the couch.

“He doesn’t have an ego!” my husband spluttered. “He’s just proud and uncompromising.”

Point. Set. Match.
