After a long, hard quarter we finally launched the magazine. Congratulations to the Fall Supraprint students. Looking forward to 2010.

magaganap nanaman bukas ang isang ritwal mula sa aking kapatiran ang Alpha Phi Omega.  Isang ritwal na hindi alam ng ibang tao ang malalim na kahulugan.

Mabuhay Alpha Phi Omega!!

Voilà, il est là. J’aimerai bien que tu me l’offres pour noël, mais je crois que je l’ai déjà. C’est le classement des 100 classiques du rap français. C’est sur l’ abcdr du son. C’est un gros travail d’archive. Mais tu sais déjà qui est premier.

Napakabait ng Diyos at bignigyan niya ang tao ng kakayahang managinip. Sapagkat sa panaginip maaring mangyari ang mga malabong mangyayari sa totoong buhay. Nagagawa mu ang hindi mu magawa. Makausap ang gusto mung kausapin. At ang pinakamaganda dala mu sa paggising mu ang isang malaking ngiti mula sa panaginip. At sasabihin sayang naputol ahaha.

Sa aking mga naranasan alam ko na na magtira ka dapat sa sarili mu kahit kaunti para kung mawawala siya alam mu na kung san hahanapin sarili mu. Nangyari kasi sakin sa nagdaan na karanasan noong matapos ang relasyon namin. Hindi ko na alam kong san hahanapin ang sarili ko.

Pero ngayon ako a masayang masaya na at desido na kung paano mapagbubuti ang aking sarili pisikal at emotional. ehehe.Eto ay halimbawa ng pisikal. Talto paalala para mabilis tumaba  una kumain ng mayaman sa protina na pagkain. Pangalawa Ilagay sa isip na kaya mung buhatin at magdagdag pa ng bigat(gym). Tamang pagpapahinga kailangan ng mahimbing na tulog anim hanggang walong oras. hahah!

Many are talking about a surprising move by Microsoft, buying Sentillion. The press release doesn’t say it all, that’s for sure. My esteemed colleague, Mr. Shaw, asks some very interesting questions. I think some of the answers are right there in the discussions. More of the tweets I’ve seen so far (as of 2:30pm EST on 12/10/2009) use terms like Microsoft buys a “Healthcare Software” company. And, as @jacksonshaw points out, the acquisition was driven from the haelthcare division at Microsoft. It is entirely possible that the FIM team found out exactly when we did. I doubt this because I’ve always seen Microsoft as being a bit better at internal communications than most vendors their size, but things like that are very common in very large companies.

Also very common in larger firms are duplicate offerings across different business units. And so maybe having more than one provisioning offering is not going to be as painful as it may seem at first blush. After all, how many forms of HR application does Oracle sell right now? And that’s a core piece of corporate plumbing, not just an IT infrastructure component.

I’ve never seen Sentillion outside the healthcare niche, though I’m sure they are to some degree. They always posed the biggest threat when context management (in the CCOW sense) was a big part of the requirements. Most of these healthcare RFPs I’ve seen have been more about context than SSO. So it seems to make sense to me that the healthcare folks at Microsoft would want this in their bag as a way to capture more of their clients’ attention and budget.

My bet is that this is going to stay very healthcare focused – simply due to resources required for transition. Focus is a struggle during any transition. Adding another business unit (IDA) into the mix would be asking for trouble.

And, to finally arrive at the point in the title, the WIF focus has all been on federation. There is a definite tension between ESSO and federation. If you have the problems handled with ESSO, why spend the money and time on getting applications federation ready? So there is likely some tension there that will need some thinking through before making any attempt to glue these offerings together. Though I’d like to be a fly on the wall when someone asks Microsoft if they would support a WIF federation approach or an ESSO approach for a mid sized company if both reps with Sentillion and WIF in their bags are in the same room. That would be a fun few moments of silence…

Ayun kay Jordan na isang kilala na linya ng basketball. Sa huling minutong natitira at tabla ang laban.Mayroon siyan 50-50 tiyorya. 50 na makakashut ka at 50 percent na sala. Pero kung hindi mu ititira wala kang pagasa na manalo. Dapat sumugal lang. Parang sa pagibig at natotorpe ka wala kang pagasang manalo kung hindi mu susubukan lapitan siya. Ang mahalaga sinubukan mung gumawa ng hakbang na pede kang makapuntos kung papalarin! ehehe

magandang gabi!

Napakasayang isipin at ngayon ko lang nagpagtanto. Natanggal ko ang aking paninigarilyo at pag-inom ng alak. Salamat sa aking hinahangaan kahit malayo siya. Dahil naisip ko na kailangan kong magayos sa aking sarili upang maging isang matinong tao. Salamat

magandang gabi!

Sa ngayon,ang paghanga ay may magandang naidudulot at may masama din. Inspirasyon kung mabuti ang nagagawa nito  o
magnda ang nagiging resulta nito para sa iyo.Distraksyon naman kung masama ang naidudulot sayo
gaya ng hindi kana makapagaral ng ayos.
Para sa akin nasasaiyo kung paano mu dadalahin ang iyong paghanga.

Seems like an year when I wrote a blog, but today is another day. I just want to write something without carrying burden of a research scholar. Why should I always think before I write? I hate proofreading and editing. I hate criticizing my self. I hate to correct. Why I am so self conscious? Why I am so aware of things, which people do not even think of? I hate being a person, who can understand people so well. I hate being someone, who can just logically solve the equations behind human emotions or behaviour in her mind. I do not do it deliberately, it just happens. I do not want to publish this but sometimes I think I should just let things go…

And as we say, old habits die hard, I did edit, I did read, I did correct…

We made it!

iAm is the online multimedia magazine that I helped produce this quarter as part of my multimedia reporting class. There were moments I wasn’t sure we’d make it across the finish line…but here we are! The topic is identity…much like this blog, but not so serious and self-important :::wink:::. I’m working on that, I promise! Lighter fare next time around, ok?

We all did projects profiling real people in our communities, delving in to why they do what they do and how they express externally who they are on the inside. My multimedia presentation missed the point a bit because of course I was trying to be on top of things and ended up conducting the interview before we decided on a magazine topic. But I think you’ll like it anyway. My subject is Brennon Leighton, winemaker at Efeste Wines in Woodinville. Efeste is making some seriously great wines these days…they just released a Chardonnay called Lola that is out of this world. Here is their web site. But I digress…

hayyyy! kapagod na araw nanaman. Pero masaya dahil sa ngayon kita ko na pagbabago ko sa sarili ko pisikal at emotional. Pero nagbago ba ako para saking sarili o para sa aking hinahangaan? hahah pero bahala na malalaman natin sa mga dadaan na araw. Sa ngayon maganda ang mga resulta. At masaya ako para dito!

I’ve been traveling like mad (writing this in Berlin). So this comes far too long after the show for my taste, but I really wanted to get this out there because there is some very good stuff to highlight.

The star of the Gartner IAM Summit was Earl Perkins. He has a way of saying things that makes the very obvious seem as wise as it should. The thoughts he concentrated on that left an impression on me were:

1. There is too much focus on the C in GRC. Vendors are the most guilty here, since they tend to see compliance as the easiest route to sales success. If there is an audit finding or clear potential for one, you have a compelling event. It’s just as valid to talk about using IAM products in a way that removes risk and aids in governance, though; and the business uses those terms. Vendors are always looking for ways to address the business buyer vs. the technology buyer. Of course, that is also useful for the advocate of IAM projects within an organization. Talking to your customer internally about risk and governance makes them see you as proactive vs. reactive to compliance needs that arise from outside pressure.
2. The auditor is your friend. I got to see Earl brief clients directly on this at the “breakfast with the analysts” session. I can’t agree more with this. Making the business take your IAM project more seriously by virtue of making it the auditor’s edict is a wonderful trick.

Reduction is another theme that came out of both the analyst and customer led sessions. All forms of reduction are good. Quest had a session highlighting our Authentication Services being used at Chevron, and that focused on reducing the overall number of identities in any enterprise by consolidating to AD for all Unix, Linux and Macs as well as many applications. But reducing the number of roles, the number of entitlement definitions and directory infrastructures was touched on again and again.

Last is a favorite of mine: reading the magic quadrant correctly. Gartner always says this clearly, but it feels like no one ever hears them. I look at the magic quadrant as three dimensional. The two dimensional graph is a ceiling where vendors who have made the cut poke through and show up in their respective areas, as if you were looking at the top of a cube. Turn the cube to it’s side and you would see the shorter lines which don’t make it to the top of the cube which all represent the vendors which are not good enough to be in the “magic ceiling”. Earl also revisited why there is still and likely to never be an IAM magic quadrant – there is no one definition to make a cohesive statement about.

A very good conference all in all. Can’t wait for the next one…

Sa napanuod kong palabas meron siyang nais iparating at ako ay sumasangayon dito. Malaki na nga ang pinag bago ng ating teknolohiya. Sa pagsulat pa nga lang gamit ang papel at lapis ay mahirap na pinadali sa pamamagitan ng pagsusulat gamit ang komputer.  Ang bilis ng mga pagbabago ang problema yung ibang tao nadadala at hindi nila napapansin na sa bilis ng pagbabago maaaring mabilis din silang mapahamak. Gaya ng mga issue ng sex scandals ni hayden kho. Ngayon mabilis maipalaganap ang mga video. At ito ay kaaya-aya kung gagamitin sa tamang paraan pero ang nangyari mabilis nipalaganap ang scandal at mabalis napahamak ang mga biktima.

Tayo ang makina na ang napapatakbo ay sarili natin. huwag natin hayaan na ang teknolohiya ang magpatakbo sa atin na ikakadulot ng kapahamakan. Basta lagi natin tandaan para hindi mapahamak o makapahamak ng ibang tao  ay ang pagrespeto sa ibang tao pero bago ang lahat respetuhin mu muna ang sarili mo!

My job description requires in the moment a lot of travelling. Going to meetings  means passing the N1 and N2 again and again and being reminded all the time that we are close to the soccer world cup 2010. No, to be reminded there is no big advertising necessary, just experiencing the stop and go between all the road repairs and reconstructions gives you plenty of time to reflect on the coming event. We South Africans are happy about the repairs, especially not knowing whether this will happen again in the next twenty years ahead of us. So all is welcome what will make our lives easier after 2010…

Having seen the traffic tripling the last 10 years without any new lane of road has taught us that there is a limit to more cars on the same roads, going from the airport to town in the mornings have become a nightmare scenario.

It is also nice to see the squatter camps disappearing from the motorway, so that the visitors of 2010 do not see too much poverty along the way to town. Even if it is partly because of dressing up the country for the world cup, it without doubt helps people to better their living situation.

So, while driving there is much to reflect and to consider and I specially admire those cutting grass and hedges along the motorway – sometimes only protected through a lonely red flag waving person in the curve without doubt heaven must hold its hand here to protect the workers who sometimes seemingly not notice the danger they are in…

And there have been the meetings today too besides all the reflections: one to one meetings, but also a trustee meeting of IAM, an organisation looking into the ministries for GLBTI communities within the churches. Hosting good old friends this evening at home was a great chance just to catch up and to indulge in the good old times… yeah, even priests do have some…
