按照应用的角度，经济发展与合作组织（OECD）将知识分为四类：事实知识（Know-what）、原理知识（Know-why）、技能知识（Know-how）和人际知识（Know-who）。从认知角度出发，知识又可以分为显性知识（Explicit Knowledge）和隐性知识（Tacit Knowledege）。显性知识可以通过文件、形象或其他精确的沟通过程来传授，但隐性知识的获得却只能依赖于自身的体验、直觉和洞察力。在OECD对知识的划分中，前两者属于显性知识，后两者属于隐性知识。显性知识和隐性知识之间可以相互转化，动态循环。

From 2008 to 2012 the ILO collaborated with 16 microfinance institutions to test a range of approaches to foster social impact through the delivery of innovative financial and non-financial services. Eliminating child labour, fostering the formalization of enterprises, reducing vulnerability and enhancing business performance through improved working conditions – these are decent work objectives that MFIs addressed in the framework of the “Microfinance for Decent Work” (MF4DW) action research programme. The results highlighted one key message: that MFIs can achieve desired results if they identify an issue and then focus on that area to help their clients. On December 4, 2015, a knowledge sharing workshop was organized in New Delhi to discuss these findings.

I actually like the drab monotonous mood of this piece. I was going to attempt to remove some of the noise, but decided that it's actually part of character of this photo.
Notice the note on the board...
irony.
There's little doubt that eBooks are coming...they save paper, they save space, they don't decay with exposure to light nd air, and users can download multiple texts to a single reader.
But I'll miss the smell of books. Dusty musty old books. Books that have been read and re-read. Handled and dog-eared and bookmarked. I'll miss paging thru an old book of poems and reading the notes scrawled in the margin by some forgotten hand.
Above all, I'll miss the near-human fragility of books.

A nice thrift store find. This would be my dream house, although I might need a few more bookshelves.

Even though I read a lot (and forget most of the details). Before retiring in 2005 my job as a librarian was to catalog books and serials in a big academic library (FSU). Sometimes I would say that the flood of new and rehashed knowledge we handled kept reminding me of how much more ignorant I and every other individual was becoming, compared to the growing total of knowledge.
Archive of Spatial Knowledge is a curated collection of spatial memories hosted on an experimental digital platform. It gathers idiosyncratic spatial and social memory of individuals and groups who were forcefully displaced from the geographies of their origin or are denied representation and the possibility to build historical and cultural continuity in the locations of their current residence. The archive‘s first edition addresses the issues of spatial justice in and around the Russian occupied regions of Georgia.

He was determined to find out whether this was the Tree of Life or the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. And there was no other way than to climb that tree, get one of those juicy fruits and eat it. He moved fast, and we're glad He did it, because this story is getting long and somebody's photo stream is becoming humdrum.

If you want to know how it all started, you can watch it here, but I wouldn't give a damn if I were you.
Nabil Mistkawi
Saved Intel millions
It took Nabil Mistkawi three days to solve a problem that stumped other top researchers: how to make Intel’s microprocessors smaller and faster by removing a layer of metal without damaging the other materials.
Mistkawi, then a PSU doctoral chemistry student, full-time Intel engineer and father of three young children, took up the challenge. His breakthrough chemical solution is environmentally friendly and saves Intel millions of dollars each year. During a visit to Intel, President Barack Obama said stories like Mistkawi’s “give me hope.”

Shilpgram is a rural arts and crafts complex, situated 3 km west of the city of Udaipur. The center is spread over an undulating terrain of about 70 Acres of land, surrounded by the Aravali mountains. The complex is conceived as a living ethnographic museum to depict the lifestyles of the folk and tribal people of the region. With an objective of increasing awareness and knowledge about the rural arts and crafts, the Shilpgram provides opportunity to rural and urban artists to come together and interact through the process of camps and workshops.
DESCRIPTION
The Complex has an open air Amphitheatre with a seating capacity of approximately 8000, used for the major theatre festivals held here and the traditional folk performing arts. Each member state of the West Zone has traditional huts built within the Shilpgram, derivative of certain basic occupations fundamental to the way of life of the people of the area and also central to the culture of the country. In these traditional huts, household articles of everyday use, like terracotta, textile, wooden and metal items, decorative objects and implements are featured with appropriate signages and explanatory details with the objective to give a realistic glimpse of the people and their belongings.
The huts are constructed around an interlocking occupational theme. In this integrated pattern are five huts from Rajasthan, representing the weavers' community from Marwar, pottery from the hilly areas of Mewar and the tribal farmer communities of the Bhil and the Sehariyas.Apart from the state's own representation, there are seven representative huts from the state of Gujarat, five from the state of Maharashtra and five featuring the arts and crafts of Goa.
SHILPGRAM FESTIVAL
The Shilpgram Festival is organised every year from 21 December to December 31. The Shilpgram Fair (Shilpgram Mela), a part of the festive celebrations, serves as a destination for hand woven clothes, embroideries, mirror works and handicrafts. The 'Mela' aids in encouraging the urban potters, visual artists and designers and the cottage industry of Rajasthan. The Festival provides opportunities for learning the craft skills through various workshops. Cultural programmes during the evening and the local food stalls attract many visitors and locals.
SHILPDARSHAN
Shilpdarshan is a continuing activity at Shilpgram in which traditional performing artists and craftsmen are used to draw from the interior villages of the member states. They are regularly invited to exhibit their skill and to demonstrate their crafts, and sell their works in order to have direct access to the buyers. This programme has been initiated with an aim to encourage the rural craftsmen and performers.

These three self portraits are from a project concentrating on the role of women in christianity, more specifically Catholicism. They show how women are stereotypically portrayed in the bible and more subtly in a society that has grown from Christian values.

On Wednesday, Jan. 18, 2012, the Department of Veterans Affairs hosted a major Veteran Career Fair in Washington, D.C., where federal agencies and private sector companies partnered to hire Veterans on the spot. The Veteran-focused career fair and exposition was attended by thousands of Veterans competing for approximately 6,400 public and private sector job opportunities. Federal agencies included Departments of Homeland Security, Defense, Interior, Agriculture, Labor and EPA. Over 20 private sector partners included Microsoft, Lockheed Martin, Citigroup, Safeway, Washington Area Transit Authority, Philadelphia Police Dept, Johns Hopkins Hospital, JP Morgan and many others.
"Ensuring that Veterans are educated, trained and able to translate their military skills into careers in both the public and private sector continues to be a top priority for the Obama Administration," said Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric K. Shinseki. "Now more than ever, America needs the knowledge, skills and abilities of our Veterans, and this generation of heroes is capable of transforming the Nation at a time when we need their leadership and ingenuity."
