Well, besides being CIO and chief hat wearer at Sensei, sometime in my distant ( and sometimes not so distant past) I was a professionally trained chef. As I am prone to do late in the evenings I was catching up on the web and came across this gem in the Charlotte Observer. Next week I am participating in an intimate roundtable hosted by Mirador Capital and Vertex Pharmaceuticals focused on brining luminaries together in the James Bear Foundation boardroom to discuss " Healthcare 2.0, Who and What are going to make it happen". I am especially excited about the topic! As Sensei forges new ground helping consumers change behaviors through the cell phone, it will be an inspiring experience to listen and contribute to other organizations who are trying to improve the lifestyle and healthcare of folks around the globe. All this comes full circle back to this article :-)
It was released by the James Beard Foundation in celebration of their twentieth year. The foundation is in honor of James Beard, a prolific culinary mastermind who penned many great cookbooks, had his own cooking school, and worked hard to change the ides of epicurean delight in the United States. The foundation is dedicated to celebrating, preserving, and nurturing America's culinary heritage and diversity in order to elevate the appreciation of American culinary excellence and promotes many programs, scholarships, and classes to that end. I found the list intriguing, I own seven of the twenty, but "sadly" it looks like a trip to Barnes and Nobles is in store for me to round out my collection. -Tim Labels: Tim
