Association of Business Process Management Profess ionals \;\n \;\n"\;Wicked problems"\; are problems so comp licated you essentially cannot even define the problem. A formal definit ion for a wicked problem is that it is "\;unsolvable by classical\, linear problem-solving processes."\; Wicked problems\, which have be en understood in the context of the planning world for some time\, are n ow increasingly being recognized as an issue in organizational change ma nagement and business process management. \;\n \;\nImplementing a BPM initiative is at times a wicked problem. Yet there is very little i nformation in the literature on approaches or best practices that projec t managers can take to successfully address these projects. \;\n \ ;\nThis talk will provide practical perspectives on managing wicked prob lem projects. It addresses underlying issues of problem and decision fra ming\, and then works through basic issues of both tame and wicked probl ems. Finally\, the presentation provides suggestions and approaches to b est manage wicked problem projects. \;\n \;\n \;\nBrad Hermans on\, PE\, PMP\, is Operations and Program Manager for the Portland Offic e of Parametrix\, a 450-person engineering\, environmental sciences and architectural firm centered in the Pacific Northwest. \;\nBrad's con sulting specialties have included program management of complex and cont roversial projects including management of a project for the Times Beach \, Missouri Superfund site\, one of the most controversial Superfund sit es in the United States.

A lot of m ovies sound really great on paper and are really crap on the screen. Thi s Sunday\, we're going to take that one little rule\, fold it up like a paper airplane\, and toss it out the window. \;\n \;\nHome Movie D ay is an international celebration of the art of amateur movie-making on 8mm and 16mm film. Whether it's footage of grandma blowing out candles at her 80th birthday party or a cops-and-robbers movie made by grade-sch ool kids\, this is an opportunity to share\, preserve and celebrate old films. \;\n \;\nFor this event\, community members are encouraged to bring their home movies for inspection and potential exhibition. Loca l film experts\, along with archivists from the University of Oregon Lib raries\, will assess the physical condition of the film before projectin g movies for viewing. They will also offer advice on how to best preserv e and protect these film formats from damage. \;\n \;\nThe endurin g success of Home Movie Day lies in the thrill of uncovering original fi lm footage of places\, people and events -- both familiar and strange -- that may have rested unseen in household closets for decades. At a 2006 Home Movie Day event in New Haven\, Connecticut\, amateur film maker Ro bbins Barstow shared his 1956 travelogue "\;Disneyland Dream\,"\ ; which captured his family's visit to the Magic Kingdom in its first ye ar of operation. Also captured in the background is a fleeting glimpse o f future comedian Steve Martin selling guidebooks in a top hat and strip ed pink shirt.
