A police chase that lasted more than an hour and reportedly reached speeds of 75 miles per hour ended with a murder suspect crashing into a tractor trailer. The suspect was apprehended at that point surrendering to police. Video from helicopters showed the suspect driving on the wrong side of the road and weaving through a parking lot as part of police chase. Michael Caleb Reed from Bakersfield, Calif. was wanted for shooting and killing Michael Lewis. The truck driver who blocked the suspect exited his truck cab and calmly walked away. He is being hailed as a crucial part of the capture of the murder suspect.

Our Honest Review of Hired Gun Have you watched "Hired Gun" as yet? We recommend you do, especially if you're curious about the life of a session musician. In the meantime, you can check out our review below. We decided to do this review, and share our thoughts with you, because we found it to be informative and entertaining at the same time. In essence, it gives you valuable insights into what some of our current session musicians experience in their careers, all while helping to make great music. Hired Gun Review In the seemingly glamorous world of music, the stars are revered – worshipped even – by millions of fans. Yet, without musicians such as Liberty Devitto, Kenny Aronoff, Jason Hook, and a host of others, many of music’s biggest names might not have been able to reach the statuses they currently enjoy. That’s what “Hired Gun: Out of the Shadows, Into the Spotlight” is about in a nutshell. It’s a 90+ minutes documentary, showcasing a few of the top studio/session musicians aka “hired guns,” who have contributed their time and talent to the careers of well-known artists, often with little to no recognition of their own, and sometimes with little compensation to boot. But Hired Gun is much more than a show giving 15 minutes of fame to the session musicians who play the vital, often unseen supporting roles for everyone, ranging from pop idols to rock giants. In between seemingly haphazard interviews, musical interludes, and two solid performances, the feature-length documentary serves to be an eye-opener for music fans and an ode to session musicians everywhere. Released initially in 2016 at the SXSW Festival , the Fran Strine directed exposé hit its stride on June 29 when it was screened at several North American locations. It got rave reviews from individual critics, as well as movie review sites, such as Rotten Tomatoes, whose audience scored it at 92%. A strong point of the film is that it gives a face to some of the finest behind-the-scenes instrumentalists, who have been associated with some of the biggest hit songs and iconic stars over the past four decades. Who’s a Hired Gun? According to Jason Hook, who has been a hired gun himself, they are “assassins…the best available musicians that get hired to go on tour, to deliver that music for that artist.” In essence, they get gigs to play a part in live concerts or studio recordings for recognized musicians and bands. They include singers, songwriters, guitarists, drummers, and other instrumentalists. Another term used to describe hired guns is sidemen, but it would also be correct to refer to them as freelancers. Naturally, there are advantages and disadvantages for these musicians. Who’s in it? The documentary features over two dozen musicians, who have worked with some of the biggest artists and bands to have graced the international music scene. - Liberty Devitto: Drummer (Billy Joel) - Russell Javors: Guitarist (Billy Joel) - Jason Hook: Guitarist (Mandy Moore, Alice Cooper, Five Finger Death Punch) - Kenny Aronoff: Drummer (Elton John, Bob Seger, John Mellencamp) - Chris Johnson: Drummer (Rihanna, Stevie Wonder, Seal) - John 5: Guitarist (Rob Zombie, Rod Stewart, Marilyn Manson) - David Foster: Record Producer / Session Musician (Chicago, Earth, Wind & Fire, Whitney Houston) - John JR Robinson: Drummer (Michael Jackson, Daft Punk, Madonna) - Steve Vai: Guitarist (Frank Zappa, Whitesnake, David Lee Roth) - Rob McNelley: Guitarist (Lady Antebellum, Bob Seger, Dolly Parton) - Ray Parker JR.: Guitarist (Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Boz Scaggs) - Jason Newsted: Bassist (Metallica, Gov’t Mule, Ozzy Osbourne) - Justin Derrico: Guitarist (P!NK, Tina Turner, Beyonce, The Voice TV show) - Eva Gardner: Bassist (Cher, P!NK, The Mars Volta) - Mark Schulman: Drummer (Foreigner, Cher, P!NK) - Glen Sobel: Drummer (Alice Cooper) - Michael “Fish” Herring: Guitarist (Christina Aguilera, Tupac Shakur, Prince) - Steve Lukather: Guitarist (Lionel Richie, Michael Jackson, Toto) - Derek St. Holmes: Singer and Guitarist (Ted Nugent) - Rudy Sarzo: Bassist (Ozzy Osbourne, Quiet Riot, Whitesnake) - Richard Patrick: Singer and Guitarist (Nine Inch Nails, Filter) - Phil Buckman: Bassist (Filter, Fuel) - Brad Gillis: Guitarist (Ozzy Osbourne, Night Ranger) - Phil X: Guitarist (Bon Jovi, Chris Daughtry, Kelly Clarkson) - Paul Bushnell: Bassist (Katy Perry, Phil Collins, Elton John) - Greg Upchurch: Drummer (Chris Cornell, 3 Doors Down, Puddle of Mudd) - Nita Strauss: Guitarist (Alice Cooper) - Eric Singer: Drummer (Alice Cooper, KISS, Black Sabbath) - Jay Graydon: Record Producer/Session Musician (Steely Dan, Earth, Wind & Fire, George Benson) Artists Alice Cooper, Rob Zombie and P!NK are also among the interviewees, providing the perspective of the superstars who use the services of Hired Guns, as well as Bob Ezrin (Record Producer for Cooper, Pink Floyd, and KISS), also giving his take. The entire gist of the presentation can probably be summed up in one of the many punchlines of the film: “Being a hired gun, you’re sitting in the front row to a very glamorous, high-profile, exciting lifestyle. But it has nothing to do with you.” – Jason Hook. However, the story also presents several experiences and outcomes that are possible for anyone who becomes a hired gun/ side musician. 1. Possibility of being underpaid / unrewarded According to several of the interviewees, being a Hired Gun doesn’t always mean enough – or any money at all – is being made. Phil Buckman gave an example of this in his turn at the mic, saying “it was almost laughable what we got paid,” about his time working with Filter. Greg Upchurch also speaks of coming off tour and then having to immediately take up a house painting gig with friends to make extra money, at one point ending up painting the residence of Matt Sorum of Guns N’ Roses. There is also talk of not getting any recognition or royalties for songs that they contributed significantly to. 2. Getting left out in the cold Being a Hired Gun means there is always a possibility of being let go unceremoniously and with very little warning, as was recounted by Russell Javors and Liberty Devitto. The two were relieved of their duties with very little notice after giving years of service on records and on tours with Billy Joel. There is also mention of the unpredictability – wherein one day everything could be going great and the next you’re out of a job. Jason Hook gives one such scenario while he was playing for Hilary Duff. He explained that things were going so great that he decided to take out a loan for a house. As luck would have it, the gig with Duff ended abruptly, leaving his financial position in doubt at the time. 3. Can be exhausting The freelancing nature of being a side musician means there is a possibility of constantly being on the road, either with one band or between bands, especially if you’re good. This was mentioned to be the case for Eric Singer, who performed with Alice Cooper for several months at a time, only to restart the process with KISS, once Cooper’s tour broke. 4. Opportunities that can arise From becoming a part of the band to being able to work exclusively with other music professionals, several of the interviewees had stories of how they were able to step up from just being Hired Guns. Ray Parker JR., for instance, was able to create his own chart-topping song, “Ghostbusters,” which put him into the spotlight after being in the shadows as a session musician. Jason Hook also migrated from Hired Gun to being a member of Five Finger Death Punch, while Richard Patrick went from a less than fruitful side musician with Nine Inch Nails to calling the shots himself when he released his own hit song and went looking for Hired Guns himself. 5. Relationship with fans Another story that jumps out from Fran Strine’s documentary is that of session musicians who did get recognition, but not the type they were looking for. Brad Gillis gives an account of how he was initially chastised by fans when he replaced the deceased Randy Rhoads in the Ozzy Osbourne band. Likewise, Jason Newsted remembered being given a hard time by Metallica fans after taking up the spot left vacant by the passing of Cliff Burton. Like freelancers in other fields, the featured musicians in the documentary painted a clear picture of the many possibilities that existed for Hired Guns, whether negative or positive. In addition, the film showcased the importance of Hired Guns, even if they were not as well-known as their hiring counterparts, and why many of them probably deserved some more of the spotlight. And while it would seem that some established acts are fine with the status quo, it would appear that some appreciate the contributions of the session musicians. This is shown in snippets of P!NK giving shout-outs to drummer, Mark Schulman and guitarist, Jason Derrico, who has been playing with her for 10 years. In fact, P!NK used the word 'family' in her interview for the film. Cooper also shows much admiration for what the Hired Guns do. But perhaps he has a larger vision for them, with his suggestion that top session musicians could form their own super bands instead of continuing to be side pieces. Hired Gun is a great watch for session musicians who might be entering into the field wondering what to expect, or even for those who are in it already but haven’t quite gotten their feet wet as yet. It’s also a great watch for anyone who wants to have an idea about how the music is actually made and the important role of professional session musicians who help to make the magic. Hired Gun is available from sources such as iTunes, Google Play, Amazon, Fandango Now, Vudu, and Vimeo on Demand, among others.

In the past few years, poet and NEA fellow Tania Runyan revolutionized the teaching of poetry with the release of How to Read a Poem. Using the Billy Collins poem “Introduction to Poetry” as a guide, Runyan invited readers into a new way of reading, not with the goal of “torturing a confession” from the poem, but of holding a poem up to the light, or pressing it like a hive to the ear (painless, we assure you). Runyan has done it again. Now she invites us to create our own poems, in the companion volume How to Write a Poem: Based on the Billy Collins Poem “Introduction to Poetry.” While individual writers and readers of poetry have appreciated these books, we want to continue our mission to get these excellent resources into classrooms around the country. To that end, we’ve dusted off our teacher map and again invite you to share How to Read a Poem and now How to Write a Poem with a teacher in your state. (It’s so simple when you order your own copy to just make it two, and give that other one away.) After all, teachers love these books. Listen: For years I’ve searched for a poetry-writing text that provides enough substance without the inevitable overload of content I’ll never cover. Now my search is complete. The companion to her insightful and accessible How to Read a Poem (and written in the same inviting tone), Tania Runyan’s How to Write a Poemcontains three essential elements I’ve yet to find in one poetry-writing text: generous and informed instruction, dozens of compelling example poems, and rich and plentiful exercises that avoid tricks and gimmicks. Any poetry-writing teacher would do well to assign this text. Any writer would do well to draft and revise poems based upon these prompts. —Nathaniel L. Hansen; Assistant Professor of English & Creative Writing, University of Mary Hardin-Baylor; Director, Windhover Writers’ Festival How To Write A Poem is a classroom must-have. Through a selection of evocative poetry and a series of accessible exercises, Runyan shows readers how to gather ideas, choose words, strengthen imagery and sound, and she models each of these skills as she writes alongside her readers. This is compassionate, beautiful writing that invites us into the world of poems. —Callie Feyen, Middle School Teacher, Maryland So, buy a copy for a teacher today, and drop a note in the comments telling us the state where you’re placing the book and we’ll add it to our map. (See those festive little books all over South Dakota? That’s because the three English teachers in my local high school just got their copies yesterday. What a fun little delivery to make.)

Emily Goodson: How one woman found her voice and the courage to embrace her whole self Share this post In honor of Women's History Month, we present to you the stories of three women who are dedicated to making work a better place and inspiring us by fully embracing their true selves. On February 27, 2022, the Los Angeles Times published Emily’s article: I’m a disabled woman. Is that a dating deal breaker? The response to it was overwhelming. Emily was flooded with messages from friends and strangers showing immense love and support. A lot of people shared how they felt seen and heard in this piece of writing that flowed right from Emily’s heart. Even a year later, at the time that I was interviewing her, someone had dropped her a message sharing how he felt seen, all thanks to Emily’s heartfelt article. “But it wasn’t easy”, chuckles Emily, as she recalls how much she agonized over whether to hit the submit button on the article or not. “Except for a few really close friends, I had never shared this part of me with anyone. So, I was worried -- really worried about how my friends, family, and ex-colleagues would react. Not just that, being a business owner and an HR consultant, I also worried if I’d face any backlash from my clients for talking about dating and sex.” But despite all the fears and worries that plagued her, Emily went ahead anyway. She sent the article to LA Times in September 2021; heard nothing from them for four months and then in February, her article was published. “That article is MY VOICE, who I truly am. After all these years, I felt like I had finally found it. And getting to see the power of it was truly gratifying. Now, I hope to write more and share more with the world. But I didn’t always feel this way about my voice”. A voice subdued and lost in the noise As a little girl, Emily had a brain injury that left her partially paralyzed on the left side of her body. She also lost her ability to speak. Over the years, she worked hard to regain much of her mobility and speech but despite all that, continued to spend her childhood and adolescent years without making a big deal of her disability. She went on to do her Masters in Education and landed up in Washington DC, taking up her first job as a teacher and subsequently becoming an HR professional. But through all of these years, Emily never had the chance to fully acknowledge and embrace all parts of her, including her disability, nor did she know how to access her true voice. “I struggled to find my voice at my earlier workplaces. I didn’t know how much to advocate for myself or as an HR professional, to advocate for my employees. Trying to strike a balance between the needs of the employees and the business was tough, to say the least. And to not have whatever it took to have that strong voice of advocacy made me feel miserable.”, recalls Emily. “I then took a huge leap of faith in 2019. I moved all the way to California to start my business. And then the pandemic hit. I only knew one person in Los Angeles at that time and I had no idea how challenging starting out on my own would be. It was a time when I still hadn’t found my voice, my true self. I struggled financially and emotionally. And that’s the moment -- and after all these years -- that forced me to reflect on my most authentic self. What does it mean to have a disability? What has it taught me? What can I share with the world that I’ve learned from having this disability?” Today, Emily is a successful entrepreneur, speaker, writer and startup advisor. She is the Founder and CEO of CultureSmart, a consultancy that helps startups build their workplace culture. She also helps startups hire their first talent professional and mentors them to build successful HR practices within small and medium-sized companies. Embracing her true voice For Emily, embracing her true self meant embracing every single part of her. A quote on her website beautifully describes this journey: “One of the things I learned in recent years is I can own all parts of my identity without being stuck in a box. I can walk differently than others, be the CEO of my company, and be a super feminine woman all at the same time. And in reality, I limit myself when I ignore pieces of my identity versus embracing all of them.” She shares the credit of having found herself to a few things she’s been religiously committed to over the years. The first is her work with a coach. “The first startup where I led Talent & People had mandatory one-on-one coaching sessions for all its leaders. And that’s when I realized how beneficial coaching is. It may not be for everybody and I don’t believe in forcing it on yourself or anyone else. Finding the right coach is also extremely important. I’ve been lucky and the time and money I’ve invested in these different modalities of self-work including meditation and yoga have helped me immensely in accepting and fully embracing myself.” One of those things that Emily learned through her coaching journey was to fully embrace her feminine and masculine energies with no shame for either. We all have both the energies within us regardless of our gender and sexual orientation. At the workplace, Emily observed it was far easier to express a lot of her masculine energy but eventually, she learned to express her omega/feminine qualities at work too. She learned to allow whatever was coming up for her to flow through without judgment. The second is Emily’s ‘hug-ee’ team. Interestingly all of their names start with a ‘J’ and they are people who she knows will always have her back no matter what. So every time she is overcome by the fear of failure or self-doubt, she hugs herself and says ‘this person has got you’, ‘this person has got you’ and so on, no matter who else is on her side or not. “There is one other thing”, she recalls. “I was in Mexico and on a trek up the pyramids. There were no hand railings making it really challenging for me. Plus, I knew very little Spanish. Once I was on the top of the pyramid and looking down, I had this moment where I thought - OMG! How am I ever going to make my way down!! In moments like these, I look back and think about the long way I’ve come. The 8-year old Emily struggling with her speech and mobility wouldn’t have imagined being able to do this. I may not be perfect but I’ve come a long way. And that gives me a lot of confidence.” Her experience with a disability has hugely informed Emily’s mission for herself. She wants to help people be happy within and outside the workplace. Today, she talks, writes and consults on a number of topics including workplace culture, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, employer branding, resilience and more. She also serves as the entrepreneur-in-residence for Verizon’s Accelerator Program for startups. “It is a huge honor to have been invited twice to be the entrepreneur-in-residence for this program. The program is also particularly close to my heart because we collaborate with startups working on social issues. Last time, it was around disability innovation and this time, it is health equity. I go in and work closely with the founding team on their work culture and recruitment.” Emily also feels she is finally closer to her lifelong dream of living between Los Angeles and New York City. But does that mean she has finally stopped agonizing about publishing her work, speaking to an audience, having a vulnerable conversation with someone or living a big life? “I am definitely much more confident now. But that doesn’t mean I’ll never again agonize over putting myself out there. I most probably will but I’ll continue to do the work that’s close to my heart despite it”, she said before bidding goodbye to me, ending the video call and getting ready to head off to New York.

The scale of capital investment made in the UK higher education estate over the last five years is staggering, with some £2.75bn spent in the 2014/15 financial year alone. This is expected to continue to increase in the immediate future as the sector anticipates the true impact of our leaving the European Union. A significant proportion has been spent on creating new academic space with the emphasis on providing the cutting-edge learning and teaching environments required to attract students in what has become and is likely to remain a highly competitive market. Opportunities also exist through the ongoing annual refurbishment of existing teaching spaces where modest investment often results in a much improved experience for the student community. Until recently, the classroom itself changed very little over the years and it is only since the introduction of the internet, mobile technologies and the furniture industry providing innovative products that designers have been able to exploit and deliver student-centred learning experiences rather than teacher centred instruction. The ‘flipped’ classroom has become the embodiment of these changes. In parallel, informal learning spaces have proliferated, partly through the availability of ubiquitous wi-fi and also the willingness of universities to open up all areas of the estate where suitable facilities can be safely located. At the University of Brighton, we created the SILS (Social and Informal Learning) Project to provide students with space to learn and socialise, to encourage active communication and to offer stimulation for users. A key factor in the success of the project was the appointment of two of our graduates to manage the project and undertake the stakeholder consultation and preliminary design work. This was delivered in previously underutilised areas of the estate but also identified common themes which could be replicated across the estate. Student feedback has been positive. The challenge for universities is balancing the capital investment with ongoing regular maintenance of the estate as neglecting this risks the polarisation of the student experience due to visible extremes of the quality of its built environment. Inspiring spaces do not happen by accident, they are the product of a process of collaboration between student, academic, estates professionals and the consultant/contractor supply chain. A further consideration is that the gestation period of a sizeable capital project can be several years and this presents challenges in maintaining the continuity of personnel involved and keeping a strong nerve on the choice of technology to install, as obsolescence is only ever around the corner. The Forum at Exeter University is such an example. Developed over a four-year period the university worked hard to maintain the knowledge base built up amongst staff working on the project, so that when people did move on, it did not have a detrimental effect on progress. The inspirational mix of indoor and outdoor space includes a Student Services Centre, library, retail and catering outlets and technology-rich learning spaces. Since its completion in 2012, it has become a key component of the university’s marketing strategy proving that good design transcends conventional boundaries. Truly inspiring spaces have to work at many levels. For the individual students it is about them gaining confidence and developing character and then through developing relationships with their peers, adapting a more collaborative approach to work and beginning to develop and experience the type of relationships which will prepare them for the world of work. The importance of creating positive links with business and industry through contact facilitated by the estate is not a new thing, but more and more emphasis is being placed on deliberately creating opportunities for collaboration either through shared programme of study or embedding business and industry within the university campus. The University of Brighton has recently completed a £15m Advanced Engineering Building at its Moulsecoomb Campus, establishing a world-class specialist teaching facilities alongside state-of-the-art research laboratories with its long-term partner Ricardo, the Shoreham-based global engineering, strategic and environmental consultancy and specialist manufacturer. The building will support the further expansion and enhancement of the partnership between Ricardo and the university to advance the design and development of novel low-carbon internal combustion systems, with the wider objectives of advancing technological knowledge and supporting the advanced training needs of the next generation of engineers for the region. A similar story can be found at Southampton Solent University’s new building, ‘Spark’, which contains teaching spaces as well as social and flexible spaces for exhibitions, shows and high-profile events. Spark’s centrepiece is the full-height atrium with its distinctive Pod reflecting the nautical heritage of the region. With such distinctive features as part of the design, they provide an additional role as valuable marketing assets for the university. One of the most interesting campus redevelopment projects recently completed is the New Academic Street (NAS) at RMIT in Melbourne, Australia – a member of University Alliance’s partner group of universities, the Australian Technology Network. This A$220m project is specifically focussed on strengthening the university’s connections and engagement with its surroundings in the northern parts of the city’s central business district. A primary aim was to improve the permeability of the campus (sometimes described as ‘fortress-like’) by allowing greater pedestrian flow and natural light to a series of planned interconnected learning and social spaces. The university it seems is deliberately creating an environment that encourages serendipity and collaboration amongst the student and staff community. Such a scale of intervention is a clear statement of the importance the university places on creating exemplar teaching spaces for the student community. Significant resources are being applied across the global HE sector to create state-of-the-art learning and teaching environments for an increasingly discerning student community. However, one of the challenges of creating a brief for a building is the question of who the stakeholders are. For the student community, that can sometimes be a point of great debate amongst the client team as students involved at the outset of the project could have left by the time it gets on site. It is a moot point as to whether or not we should be consulting with 14-18 year olds, as they are likely to be the initial users of the space. A further consideration is what if this cohort of 14-18 year olds have already studied in an inspiring space? Could the transfer to the higher education sector become an anti-climax for them, if we have not taken the time to learn about their experiences and preferences beforehand? A good example of this is the Ørestad Gymnasium in Denmark. This is an open space, completely free of traditional classrooms where all activities are visible to everybody in order to facilitate student activating, collaborative and personalised teaching methods. Aside from the open physical design, its most compelling feature is that all teaching and learning materials are digital. Another area which has led to significant progress in the development of learning environments is the use of furniture and especially where this permits flexible use of the space and empowers the user to shape their own experience. Previously seen as a secondary market by manufacturers, this has now changed considerably with global companies showing a serious interest in our sector. Whilst the development of new state-of-the-art buildings is a complex process, regenerating learning spaces across a whole institution puts a very different perspective on the challenge to both create, and maintain, inspirational space. The University of Brighton is currently in the middle of such a challenge, having determined to refurbish all teaching and learning spaces within a five-year period through its Modern Spaces Programme (MSP). At the heart of this programme are four fundamental philosophies which drive both the design process and decision-making. Inclusivity – each campus has its own local programme group consisting of stakeholders from all academic areas based on that campus, local support staff, central space planners and technologists and student representatives. These groups determine the priority order of refurbishment projects, requirements that are specific to local subject areas and dialogue with their colleagues to ensure their views are represented. These local groups then feed into a central programme steering group which manages work projects, schedules work and oversees liaison with contractors and project managers. Finally, a programme board, chaired by the PVC for Education and Student Experience, agrees standards and allocates budgets. Using exemplar spaces to set future standards – instead of simply refreshing existing facilities, the MSP is looking at previous exemplar projects in Brighton to learn lessons on creating inspirational spaces, including the SILS project, the Brighton Waste House8 and the Centre for Excellence in Creativity.9 The MSP has also developed exemplar spaces specifically designed to best understand what inspires users in different types of spaces – from small traditional classrooms, medium-sized multi-purpose spaces to large art studios. Through gathering of feedback both during the design process of these spaces and post-occupancy evaluation, the MSP has been able to determine key standards that create a positive learning and teaching environment that fits the space function and meet subject-relevant requirements, such as writable surfaces on all available walls and comprehensive support for mobile devices, interactive touch screens and moveable furniture to allow for speedy reconfiguration. A continuum of digital and physical – the reality of both a modern learner and the person teaching them is that of a continuum, from a digital world of the Virtual Learning Environment, social networks, online library resources and Google to the physical facilities of the learning space with direct interaction with the teacher, other learners and facilities that enable face-to-face teaching. An acceptance of this continuum fundamentally changes the approach to space design and incorporates not just technology to support teaching in the space but ensures the digital aspects of a student’s learning are incorporated within the space itself – allowing both worlds to inspire and shape the use of the space. The journey is as important as the destination – people do not close their eyes whilst moving between learning spaces and the journey to a lesson can play a key role in shaping the mood of both learner and teacher. To that end, the MSP has begun not only developing social learning spaces outside dedicated teaching space but also treating corridors and thoroughfares as significant opportunities to inspire through displays of student-generated work, staff research and key external sources of inspiration. Such an approach embraces two key premises. Firstly, inspiration comes in many forms. Displays can be traditional posters, physical models in cabinets and sculpture as well as digital displays. Secondly, students also curate these displays which ensures materials are relevant, current and, most importantly, inspiring for their peers. Spaces that inspire come in many shapes and sizes. We’d like to end this essay with one notable example – Building 20 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). It produced many breakthrough encounters in its 50-plus years, through the mixing of disciplines of work performed out in the open and of serendipity zones such as hallways and staircases as sites for productive encounters. The building clearly inspired its occupants to do great things and it is fitting that when the building was finally demolished in 1998 and replaced by the Frank Gehry-designed Stata Center, a key requirement of the brief was to replicate the magic of Building 20. It remains to be seen if the Stata Center inspires more than Building 20. This essay has been extracted from our publication, Technical and Professional Excellence: Perspectives on learning and teaching.

George Herbert Mead George Herbert Mead (1863-1931) was a pioneering figure in the field of social psychology and a key philosopher in the tradition of Symbolic Interactionism. Born in 1863 in Massachusetts, USA, Mead's intellectual journey began at Harvard under the guidance of William James. He furthered his studies in Europe, particularly under the mentorship of Wilhelm Wundt. In 1891, he commenced his academic career at Michigan University, and although he never completed a formal doctoral thesis, he earned a professorship in philosophy at the University of Chicago in 1894, where he would make significant contributions to the field. One of his most influential works, "Mind, Self, and Society from the Standpoint of a Social Behaviorist," published posthumously in 1934 with an introduction by Charles W. Morris, remains a cornerstone in the field of social theory. Mead's ideas revolved around the concept that "human beings are social through and through." He argued that self-reflection is essentially an internal dialogue influenced by external social interactions—a "conversation with oneself." According to Mead, the self cannot exist without society, and he distinguished between the "I" and the "me" in one's self-concept. He proposed that while animals react reflexively to stimuli, humans respond to each other's meaningful gestures and signs. Understanding these signs and what others intend is a learned process, transitioning through stages like the play stage and the game stage. Mead also developed a model of the development of the social self, emphasizing how individuals progress from mimicking behaviors to recognizing cultural norms and values. Furthermore, Mead's work laid the foundation for Symbolic Interactionism, which views society as a product of ongoing, meaningful interactions among individuals. He stressed the importance of taking the role of the other in social interactions, a principle central to this sociological perspective.

Following Presidential Decree of 2016, the Azerbaijan government founded the National Coordination Council for Sustainable Development (NCCSD) to align their development programs with the 2030 Agenda and its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). UNDP has been supporting the government by nationalizing SDGs, prioritizing targets and indicators, and mainstreaming policy development and implementation. Currently serving as a UN Volunteer, SDG Policy Advisor; Delawar Barekzai joined UNDP Azerbaijan in August 2018, bringing with him almost 10 years of hands-on experience in the development field. Having previously worked with multiple UN agencies on SDG nationalization and localization process, governance and multi-stakeholder approaches to inclusive development, Delawar believes his work as International UN Volunteer in Baku at the UNDP Country Office is making a real difference. I am very proud to serve as an International UN Volunteer throughout this meaningful process, as it provides a platform where I see that I can contribute to the achievement of one of the most ambitious development agendas. -- Delawar Barekzai, international UN Volunteer with UNDP Azerbaijan One of Delawar’s key tasks at the UNDP Country Office is to provide policy advisory support for the UNDP and its government counterparts. His work aims to advance the nation’s SDGs, build national capacities for SDG statistical framework, and provide much-needed support by monitoring and reporting on SDG progression. This has also included a review of the UNDP Country Office’s engagement, projects and programs, making sure all intervention efforts are aligned with the ‘leave no one behind’ framework. Most notably, Delawar has helped to develop Azerbaijan’s Voluntary National Review (VNR), which will be presented at the 2019 High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development in New York. Delawar Barekzai, international UN Volunteer with UNDP Azerbaijan, during one of his presentations. (UNDP Azerbaijan, 2019) Following the 2030 Agenda’s founding principles of participation and inclusivity, multi-stakeholder involvement has been emphasized at all levels. As a result, the UNDP has helped to organize a number of stakeholder consultation platforms. This includes ‘Public-Private Sector Dialogue’, ‘The Role of Youth in SDGs Conference’ and public consultation for SDG prioritization. By supporting the government’s coordination processes, Delawar and his colleagues have been able to consolidate the concerns and needs of stakeholders who represent a variety of different sectors. It doesn’t matter where you work, as long as you feel that your work has a positive impact on the lives of millions of people, which should be the ‘buzz’ in all of our lives. -- Delawar Barekzai, International UN Volunteer with UNDP Azerbaijan The UNDP intervenes as part of the Global Agenda and its inclusive focus means that it centers on reaching out to those who have the least visibility. As a strong advocate of volunteerism and sustainable development, Delawar believes that volunteering should be highlighted as an important tool to promote and implement nationalized SDGs in Azerbaijan. His assignment contributes to the achievement of SDG 17: Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development. Alongside people like Delawar, the UNDP provides support which allows greater cohesion of government policies and the implementation of national development plans that are aligned with the 2030 Agenda, whilst promoting broader international cooperation.

All Americans should be given equal opportunities to pursue their best lives, and that includes being cancer-free. For many African-America men, we still have ground to cover. As we observe National Minority Cancer Awareness week, we are reminded that African-American men are still 76% more likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer than white men, and they are 2.2 times more likely to die from it. (Prostate Cancer Foundation) Some important prostate cancer facts: - 174,650 of American men are expected to be diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2019. - The average age of diagnosis is 66, but because African-American men are considered at high risk, they should begin getting tested at age 45. - The prostate cancer survival rate is fortunately improving among African-American men. It’s now 97% over a five-year period. When the disease is caught early, the rate rises to nearly 100%. - Screenings make a difference. A recent study from the University of Gothenburg concludes that prostate-specific antigen tests (PSA blood tests) reduce prostate cancer deaths by nearly 30%. Whether or not genetics contribute to prostate cancer in African-American men is being explored. The National Institutes of Health and the Prostate Cancer Foundation in July 2018 launched a $26.5 million study to research the biological and non-biological factors. Environmental conditions, such as socioeconomic status, do contribute, according to ZERO – The End of Prostate Cancer, a nonprofit dedicated to raising awareness of the disease. According to ZERO, African-American men also may be less aware of the PSA screening option. These cancer-prevention tips could help all men, regardless of race: - Think before you eat. A healthy weight is essential for cancer prevention and overall wellness, but the kinds of foods we eat matter, too. Men should get 2.5 cups of vegetables and fruit daily–they are rich in phytonutrients and antioxidants, which improve immunity. - Live strong. Research has shown that men who exercise regularly have a slightly lower risk of developing prostate cancer, and chances improve with vigorous exercise. Regular exercise also strengthens bones, which is important for men taking hormone treatment for prostate cancer, which can contribute to osteoporosis. - Know your family history. Men who have a father or brother diagnosed with prostate cancer are twice as likely to develop the disease, regardless of race. They should get tested at age 40. - Most important, get screened. All men should be regularly screened and consider a PSA blood test, combined with a digital rectal exam. Cancerous prostate cells tend to produce more prostate-specific antigens, so men with prostate cancer usually have high PSA levels. To learn more about prostate cancer, prevention and PSA screening options, visit our web page dedicated to the disease here. To take a quiz to determine risks, visit the Prostate Cancer Foundation’s National Minority Health Month page.

Nearly 10,000 people from 50 faith traditions and 80 countries convened last week for the world's largest interfaith gathering, the Parliament of the World’s Religions in Salt Lake City, Utah, to commune in harmony and to grapple with and explore solutions to global issues like climate change, war, the widening wealth gap, etc. Founded in 1893, the first World's Parliament of Religions, as it was then known, spanned 17 days and was held in Chicago. No event of its kind, bringing together thousands of representatives of the great historic religions of the world, had ever been attempted up to that point. Read more about Unitarian involvement in the first Parliament on this informative Tapestry of Faith leader resource sheet. Rev. Eric Cherry, Director of the Unitarian Universalist Association's International Office, was one of the UUA staffers at this year's first US-based Parliament since 1993, connecting with hundreds of attending UUs and interfaith partners. It was an amazing gathering that included presentations from a long list of powerful global leaders: Unitarian Universalists were deeply engaged in the event and present in large numbers - perhaps as many as 500 in attendance! - and were heavily involved in more than 15 workshops and presentations during the Parliament. The Rev. Patty Willis of South Valley Unitarian Universalist Church in Cottonwood Heights, Utah, wrote and performed a special hymn for the gathering and led the crowd in song. (Salt Lake Tribune – 10.16.15) “There are people of deep faith here," said Christine Ashworth, an attendee who represented the First Unitarian Church of Salt Lake City and a volunteer who helped at the convention. "How can you not be inspired by the idea of all faiths getting together to be a solution?" (International Business Times – 10.15.15) At the Unitarian Universalist exhibit booth we invited visitors to participate in a video project exploring three questions: - Who are you? - What is your religious tradition? - Is there another religious tradition, beyond your own, that impacts your religious or spiritual life? Here's what they said!

Takes an illuminating, holistic look into the life and career of one of the world’s most iconic figures, Earvin “Magic” Johnson. This docuseries explores the remarkable accomplishments and global impact of Johnson’s life, both on and off the court. From his humble beginnings in Lansing, Michigan to becoming a five-time NBA champion with the Los Angeles Lakers, he changed the conversation around HIV and transcended into a community activist and successful entrepreneur. Featuring never-before-seen footage and interviews with Magic, his family, powerhouses from business and politics, and those in his inner circle, the series will offer an unprecedented look at one of the biggest cultural icons of our era. KIDS FIRST! Film Critic Ethan P. comments, “I like They Call Me Magic because it is a four-episode docuseries about the life and career of Earvin “Magic” Johnson, the five time NBA Champion Los Angeles Lakers. The audience can appreciate Magic’s humbleness, sacrifices and challenges he went through in order to be the Legend he is today.” See his full review below. They Call Me Magic Ethan P., KIDS FIRST!, Film Critic, Age 13 I like They Call Me Magic because it is a four-episode docuseries about the life and career of Earvin “Magic” Johnson, the five time NBA Champion Los Angeles Lakers. The audience can appreciate Magic’s humbleness, sacrifices and challenges he went through in order to be the Legend he is today. They Call Me Magic is about the beginning of Earvin “Magic” Johnson’s career as a basketball player, his journey from playing in high school, college, becoming an NBA All Star player, and a successful businessman and advocate for the minority communities. The audience will learn where his nickname Magic came from. What type of obstacles Magic had to go through to have the successful life he has today. He experienced racism, rivalry, jealousy, three engagements gone wrong with his actual wife, Cookie Johnson, he has the HIV virus and had to deal with the acceptance of his son, EJ Johnson, being homosexual and the repercussion that comes with it. This Apple TV+ docuseries was directed by Rick Famuyiwa with editor Dirk Westervelt and cinematographer Rachel Morrison. The audience will enjoy listening to special guests narrating some of Magic Johnson’s highlight moments in his life. We get to see former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton expressing their admiration for Magic. Former basketball players like Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan, Shaquille O’Neal, Larry Bird, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar talking about their personal experiences with Magic, inside and outside the basketball court. Jimmy Kimmel, Arsenio Hall, Samuel O’Jackson and Snoop Dog are also some of the celebrities expressing their admiration and narrating Magic’s influence in his community and globally. Today, Earvin “Magic” Johnson is a successful businessman, an advocate for HIV/AIDS patients and for the minority community. He owns several sports teams as well. The moral of this docuseries is that things always happen for a reason and to never give up when situations in life get hard. Magic never thought that having the HIV virus will turn his life for good by educating the world about this illness. He shared his experience with the virus and taught the world that AIDS is not necessary a gay illness. Anyone can be contaminated by this virus. I’d give They Call Me Magic 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, with adult’s supervision due to foul language. They Call Me Magic is available now on Apple TV+.

Spring water is the water that people get from an underground aquifer, and it is commonly a huge underground deposit of water. The majority of the aquifers do exist in some amazing places all across the world. To answer the question, “What is spring water?” You must know that spring water has huge quantities of minerals. Spring water is important for removing toxins and purification in the human body. It permits every organ to function the manner it must be. (Image Will be Updated Soon) As the subject of drinking water remains shrouded in misinformation, it becomes tough to make some informed decisions regarding what kind of water people must consume. Some people love bottled water for avoiding the chemicals that remain present in a tap water system. Spring Water Uses Springwater is used for various purposes all across the world. Springwater is utilized for people’s basic survival, pleasure, entertainment. Springwater has got lots of medicinal purposes too. Ancient Greek physicians were fully versed in the mineral water therapy health benefits. In earlier periods, the Arabians, and Egyptians, utilized mineral waters to heal ill people. This helps in many biochemical processes such as producing ATP. Gradually eliminates bone diseases and keeps healthy muscle function intact Helps to maintain healthy blood pressure. Helps to maintain water balance in the body. Does Spring Water Have Minerals? Springwater has natural mineral content, and it can propose unmatched health benefits. This kind of water is rich in minerals naturally and stands apart when you compare it with bottled water or tap water as they have got respective levels of antibacterial chemicals, chlorine, and pharmaceuticals. Mineral water arises from underground reservoirs. When spring water flows through sedimentary rocks, soil, and other sources of natural minerals, those minerals get submerged in spring water naturally. Unlike packaged drinking water, it does not go through chemical processing so the minerals stay in spring water. What is Natural Spring Water? Natural spring water is referred to as water that flows from the underground aquifer to the surface of the earth. When water flows through the underground rocks, then minerals get dissolved. The filtration process of spring water happens naturally via chemical means, physical substrate, and also by biological means. Minerals Present in Spring Water Some typical minerals that are present in spring water are potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, besides some trace quantities of zinc and iron. Every mineral present in water happens to be in its ionic form, and it means a person’s gastrointestinal tract can absorb it easily compared to minerals present in supplements and food. When spring water remains in its purest form, it comprises the maximum mineral content of any kind of water. Some Facts About Mineral Spring Water Mineral springs are acknowledged as naturally occurring springs, and they produce hard water. This water comprises salts, dissolved minerals, gases, and sulfur compounds, besides various substances that do dissolve in the spring water when it makes its passages underground. So, they are pretty different from sweet springs and produce soft water without any remarkable dissolved gases. The dissolved compounds, at times, change the taste of the water. Mineral water that is gotten from mineral springs, as well as precipitated salts, has turned into a vital commercial product. A few mineral springs might comprise substantial amounts of dissolved minerals, like arsenic, and so, they aren’t safe for drinking. Sometimes, sulfur springs do smell of rotten eggs because of the presence of hydrogen sulfide, and it is pretty hazardous, and most of the time, deadly. Hydrogen sulfide is a gas, and commonly, it gets into people’s bodies when they breathe in. Mineral spring waters are claimed to possess therapeutic value, and so, mineral spas are developed close to mineral springs where patrons drink and bathe in the mineral water. Historical mineral springs happened to be outfitted with some elaborate stone works that include retaining walls, artificial pools, roofs, and colonnades. Water in seeps, wells and springs commonly originates in the form of rainfall, and the soil soaks it. After this, it gets seeped into underlying rocks. Springwater proposes much-needed oxygen to people’s brains and bodies. This water is also helpful in digestion besides maintaining a healthy weight. The great thing is spring water tastes great and never tastes boiled or flat. So, it makes for a superb drinking experience.

Gov. Maura Healey signs executive order to increase online accessibility to state resources On the 33rd anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act and before Disability Pride Month comes to a close, Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey signed an executive order Wednesday to expand digital accessibility in state government. The order establishes a Digital Accessibility and Equity Governance Board, seeking to make state government online resources more accessible to those with disabilities and increase equity in the Commonwealth. The order was announced alongside Technology Services and Security Secretary Jason Snyder, who spearheaded the effort. He announced a new chief information technology accessibility officer position will be created to bolster these efforts, and anticipates opening applications for the new position sometime this week. “Providing a consistent means of digital accessibility for all is an essential goal. When we build digital services for people with different needs, we build better for everyone. And these changes truly do impact everyone,” Snyder said. Julie O’Leary from the Massachusetts Office on Disability noted accessibility stretches beyond just physical accommodations and infrastructure. “The same way that buildings must be designed to be accessible for all, our digital services must be designed so that they are accessible for everyone. As more state business moves online, it’s critical that both commonwealth employees and members of the public have access to the commonwealth’s digital services,” O’Leary said. On the same day, state legislators also testified for similar bills advocating to have remote options be made available for state and municipal meetings at a hearing to the Joint Committee on State Administration and Regulatory Oversight. Needham state Rep. Denise Garlick presented on the Act to Modernize Participation in Public Meetings. Western Massachusetts legislators including Sen. Jacob Oliveira, D-Ludlow, who represents Hampshire, Hampden and Worcester counties and 1st Hampshire District state Rep. Lindsay Sabadosa, D-Northampton, co-sponsored some of the bills that were presented. “With the pandemic, and the ability to move those meetings to Zoom or to hybrid, you really saw people all of a sudden start to be more interested because it was feasible for them, it was something that could fit into their life,” Sabadosa said. She hopes the remote option for meetings will become permanent at some point, with the goal that the western Massachusetts perspective is more included in statewide decision-making.

"Every plant is different – and so is every farm," says Rauno Pokall, senior product manager with OSRAM. That's why the company not only offers standard solutions but also provides customers with exactly the light they need, in the form of customized systems. "We want to bring exactly the light that is needed – where it is needed." System matched to the needs of the plants "Whether you need powerful LED components for overhead cultivation or are looking for expertise in vertical farming or intermediate lighting (interlighting), it is important that your system solutions are optimally matched to the needs of the plants, enabling predictable and continuous growth," says Rauno. For example, when it comes to greenhouses, you want to work with LED lighting components that are as efficient as they are effective, for LED modules as well as LED power supplies. "High light output and the right light spectrum are crucial." With this in mind, OSRAM developed new Optotronic Fit HC LED drivers with power clusters from 400W to 1,000W. These outputs are combined with Light Engine Modules for standard and customization approach. "With our easily customizable modules, you can choose from a wide range of spectral distributions and lighting concepts to meet your needs for your plant in its specific growth phase," says Rauno. But there's more. OSRAM offers the matching LED module and LED driver as a “system of systems” for interlighting solutions. "It allows growers to achieve further optimized lighting conditions. The interlighting is installed closer to the plant, avoiding shadows and gaps in illumination and providing the plant with ideal growth stimulation." Where there is little space for large greenhouses, vertical farms have sprung up in recent years. They provide fresh, locally grown herbs and vegetables for more and more city dwellers. According to Rauno, the PrevaLED BRICK LED modules with high-power or mid-power LED technology are ideal for creating the right compromise between homogeneity and efficiency in such farms. He explains how the company creates these innovations based on their more than 100 years of experience in light spectra and light source design, combined with their access to leading technology in horticultural chip development, allowing them to deliver the right components for any lighting project. "We co-develop modules, drivers and control systems to create the most suitable lighting product. Custom-made solutions – whether drivers or boards perfectly tailored to your needs – are a great advantage for your project." In an online training, the team with OSRAM will share more information about their multiple solutions for different horticulture application fields, like vertical farms or hydroponic greenhouses. The online training will be held on 28. Oct. 2021, 09:00 AM CET. For more information:

Saudi venture capitalist Prince Khaled bin Alwaleed called for more investment in budding businesses and technologies that can help address food security challenges that the world faces. "Governments see the problem, but now they need to adopt the innovative technologies to solve the problem," Prince Khaled said at a panel discussion with company chief executives at the Future Investment Initiative in Riyadh on Wednesday. Sky Kurtz of Pure Harvest, Sara Menker of GroIntel, Philippe Rombaut of Agropolychim, and David Rosenberg of Aero Farms took part in the session. Wastefulness and inefficiency of traditional animal agriculture attracted Prince Khaled to alternative protein and food-tech investments, he said. Vertical farming and AgriTech need more investment, said Prince Khaled, who is the first venture capitalist from the Middle East to back plant-based food and future food start-ups. "We are running out of farmland," he said. "Cellular agriculture merits more investment to feed the world. We have enough food to feed people, it's just, how do you grow the food and where do you allocate these resources?" Prince Khaled said. He aims to revolutionize the foodservice industry by introducing vegan options on menus in the kingdom and across the region.

Jared Thomas, Staff Sergeant US Army Staff Sergeant Jared Thomas was born November 16, 1990, at Fort Lewis, Washington. As a young child he moved back to his mother’s hometown of Springport, Indiana, where he was raised. As a senior in high school Jared decided to enlist into the military. He wasn’t sure which branch to choose, the men in his family had served across all the military branches. Jared’s decision to join was built on a sense of pride and patriotism from having so many members of his family serve this country. He finally made the decision to join the Army after a discussion with his girlfriends’ father, now his Father-in-law, who served 31 years in the Army. Jared knew he wanted a job where he could help others, so he decided that becoming a Combat Medic was the right choice for him. Jared served on Active Duty in the Army for eight and half years, from 2009-2018. During his military career he was stationed at Fort Carson, Colorado; Schweinfurt/Grafenwöhr, Germany; Fort Sam Houston, Texas; and Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Jared’s been deployed multiple times, including going to Iraq, Afghanistan, and Africa. After years of ground pounding with Infantry and Scout soldiers, Jared decided to become an Army Flight Paramedic, and was stationed with the 82nd Airborne Aviation “ALL-AMERICAN DUSTOFF”. Jared began his Army career and at the same time he married his high school sweetheart, Mikaela. They are blessed to have two sons, Greyson and Oliver. Jared has been riding motorcycles since he was a young teenager and continues to love riding. He is grateful and excited to have been nominated for the Veterans Charity Ride by fellow veteran, David Grabowski. Jared is looking forward to meeting the other veterans and the healing experiences that the Veterans Charity Ride provides.

January 3rd, 2013 Now that we’re into a New Year it’s time to examine the preceding year’s statistics. It should come as no real surprise that 2012 was a challenging year for real estate (and just about everything else). But all in all it wasn’t too bad a year for VIREB and its membership. During 2012 there were a total of 3,585 sales across the VIREB coverage area – down six percent from the 2011 total of 3,807 sales. Likewise, the average sale price of a home sold within the VIREB MLS® system last year was $332,347 – which was only three percent below the 2011 average sale price of $341,537. While marginally lower numbers than those recorded the year before, the VIREB declines are far less than those reported in other areas of the province.

Pyramids and Seed Conservation TRANSGENICS, MODIFIED GENES, AND HYBRID SEEDS One of the most severe problems for the survival of Humanity is the proliferation of transgenics, which has two main aspects: 1) Genes modified for specific purposes and 2) Seeds prepared to produce seedless fruit. 1) Specific hybridizations: These hybrid seeds produce certain toxins that poison insects, like most transgenic corn in the USA. The result, the almost extinction of bees in 22 states of that country. 2) Monopolistic hybridizations: We call this the other front because in no way has it improved the species in quality, flavor, aroma, resistance to pests. Farmers are subjected to as captive users of the transgenic seed producers. The fruits certainly have, in most cases, better color and shape (the visual trick of the market), but with a considerable loss of qualities that the natural plant provides. Both forms are ecologically harmful, generating injustices of all kinds. But the first one is the most destructive because its expansion is uncontrollable, invading the crops of people who don't even want to have these adulterated species in their fields. So the fact of being aware of the aberration carried out by the transgenic production companies does not save them per se from the damages that these laboratory products cause. SOLUTIONS: CONSERVATION OF SEEDS FOR INDEFINITE TIME There are various theories and experiments done using cryogenics, chemical preservation, lyophilization, etc. However, no method has effectively conserved the germination power of the seeds. But against all these resounding failures, some genetically modified producers keep hidden that it's not difficult to indefinitely conserve seeds using the Pyramid Effect. The oldest references on this matter are those of a scientist who traveled in the Napoleon Bonaparte campaign. By his command, they extracted only two French pounds (about 1,730 grams) of wheat seeds found in two fifty-pound sacks each. The cloth sacks were marked with a "do not touch" order from the Kalifa Al-Mammon. Still, it's unknown whether these sacks were there before he (in 820 AD) managed to open the pyramid, or if he ordered to save those sacks, with what would be the first experiment of our civilization on seed conservation. Two months after placing a pyramid in a tomato crop, even having abandoned the site without weeding it, those that remained in the pyramid continued to produce some tomatoes. This section of the garden was untreated, with no agrochemicals, fertilizers, or insecticides. As a result, mildew was insignificant, and the tomatoes flavor clearly distinguished from the rest. Pyramidologists are not farmers and don't have time to continue in this vast area, so we cannot devote ourselves to further research on possible agricultural applications of the pyramids. However, our products are available to those who can understand the enormous importance of pyramids in the future of agriculture. Transgenic seeds represent a severe risk to the survival of Humanity, and we are aware of this. That is why we suggest seed conservators analyze the advantages of pyramids in this use, which we consider strategic. The conservation of seeds in pyramids is a proven reality. NURSERIES: Sometimes, we need to keep the plants and flowers on the market, with very short deadlines. It is possible to considerably lengthen these plants' lifespans inside a well-built and installed pyramid with the correct orientation. This pyramid is used for Agni Hotra (or Agnihotra) practice, giving excellent results in many countries. In this field, where the almond trees were barely producing fruit, after the practice of Agni Hotra and without the climatic conditions improved, the almond trees gave a harvest like never before, within a radius of five hundred meters. Our scientific team can't explain why the Agni Hotra was successful, but the experiment had an undeniable result. It was repeated two years later with the same outcome, despite the drought that affected the region in those years. Nature's reaction was evident, with a nearly thirty percent increase in the almond harvest, and the vegetation was lush. The olive trees were also benignly affected, but we didn't monitor production methodically. Piramicasa Gabriel Silva Placing seeds in a pyramid with enough density (size and weight) for at least 30 days will give satisfactory results in germination time and rate. Placing water in a pyramid with enough density (size and weight) for at least 30 days will deliver bigger plants. a) Experiments 01, 02, 03 - Dandelion (Indoor): ✔. b) Experiment 06 - Lettuce "Summer Crisp" (pallets) (Indoor): ✔. c) Experiment 08 - Lettuce "Red Oakleaf" (pallets) (Indoor): ✔. d) Experiment 10 - Lettuce "Summer Crisp" (Indoor): ✔. e) Experiment 12 - Cucumber (Indoor): ✔.

Branding is about creating a positive evaluation of the business in the eyes of the consumer. - How is such a rating created? To create a good image of the company, many strategies are put together. - First of all, it is crucial to find out who the target audience is? - Why do they use the product or avail the service? - What are the products on the market? All these questions need to be answered in order to create an algorithm on the basis of which a company must adapt its branding and design strategy. We offer to do all these tasks for you. With the help of our professionals’ business and marketing understanding, we try to leave a lasting impression on the consumer by creating the most suitable logos, developing appropriate lettering and taglines, and implementing various advertising campaigns. Our goal is to create a symbol or logo of the company that is easily recognisable and remains in the user’s mind. After thoroughly examining every detail that affects your brand’s image, we will help you develop and implement the most effective branding and design strategy. Brand development is a complex and innovative process of creating and presenting an image of its products and services to differentiate itself from its competitors and portray its uniqueness. We seek to develop your brand by aligning your brand with your business goals and morals, communicating your brand to your target market, and maintaining your brand through various strategies. Logo and ID Systems The public image of your brand is shaped by the logo. A logo dictates how the brand appears to the outside world. If people can recognise that logo in different places, then your business advertising is considered successful. We help you achieve just that. We want to help you create the perfect logo that perfectly fits the essence of your business. Brand Style Guides A brand style is a guide that provides details and guidance on everything that plays a role in the appearance of your brand – from typography and colour to logos and imagery to the models or icons you hire to represent your brand. It highlights the standard of the brand. We want to create an image of the brand that matches your presence in the industry – be it luxury or necessity. We want to make you aware of how you represent and present your brand in the global market. Brand Strategy and Architecture Brand strategy is a system that organises brands’ products and services to help audiences access and relate to the brand. A successful Brand Architecture allows consumers to form an opinion about the brand. We help you build a strong brand strategy and brand architecture by helping you get good reviews from your customers. Collateral Prints and Packaging Brand collateral is the aggregation of media and other tools used to promote your brand and increase sales through the intended marketing of a product or service. The brand is designed and branded with core values and personality. We offer brand security services along with printing and packaging services. We create the best designs, print logos, and details for the boxes in which your product will be placed and shipped, or sold at retail. Wayfinding and Signage We want to take on an essential aspect of boosting your business – bringing customers to your doorstep. Wayfinding and signage is any type of sign or logo that gives direction or guidance to a consumer. They are associated with the idea of helping a customer find their way without lengthy explanations or complicated map work that can lead to extreme inconvenience and unnecessary hassle. With signs and directional signs showing customers the way, they should be able to find your store or shop with ease. Explainer videos are short online marketing videos. They are not similar to branded films as they do not focus on how the company works but only showcase the products and services offered. We want to create these videos for you that explains how your company’s product or service is superior to others on the market. We want to make these videos available on various platforms to attract more and more customers and make your brand known in the market. Corporate and Brand Films A Brand Film is a 1-3 minute video or clip that businesses use to market their story and brand to their potential customers. It’s like a trailer to your brand. They are typically created in a cinematic style and customer-focused to highlight your company’s presence in the marketplace and draw attention to how you work. We want to shed light on how you as a brand stand by your morals, vision, and goals to provide the best facilities to your customers with utmost care.

In the recently issued Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) Proposed Rule for 2013, CMS is soliciting comments regarding policy changes that could be made on the issue of inpatient versus outpatient admission. (To view the CMS factsheet please click here.) CMS is seeking comments on potential changes which could provide some clarity for providers and hospitals regarding inpatient versus outpatient status for purposes of Medicare payment. Comments are due by September 4, 2012. Currently, when a patient presents to the hospital in a short-stay case, the hospital must decide whether to admit the patient as an inpatient or treat him/her as an outpatient. This decision is not always clear in light of existing Medicare guidance, and the wrong choice can have severe repercussions for the hospital. If the provider orders an inpatient stay, and later, the Recovery Audit Contract (RAC) concludes that the care should have been provided at an outpatient level, the care is deemed not medically reasonable and necessary. Under the current system for reimbursement, the hospital is not reimbursed under Part B for the outpatient services provided unless the hospital undertakes an appeal of the claim denial and is successful before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ). Hospitals, in an effort to mitigate costs, err on the side of outpatient care. CMS notes that this practice has doubled in the last four years and that it has a detrimental effect on Medicare beneficiaries. If you have any questions about inpatient short stay appeals or other RAC audit-related issues, please contact an experienced healthcare attorney at Wachler & Associates at 248-544-0888.

When Greg worked in New York he would stop at Num Pang Kitchen before heading home. We loved several of their sandwiches and always hoped we could get them locally. While shopping in the Prudential Center in Boston we noticed a sign one day. It said Num Pang Kitchen coming soon! We are thrilled that they are now open! We were in town shopping with Porscha and decided to get some sandwiches to go. We ordered the Pulled Duroc Pork, 5 Spice Glazed Pork Belly, and the Ginger Barbecue Brisket. All three sandwiches were as good as we remembered. The staff also accommodated my dairy allergy by switching their usual chili mayo to their soy based mayo. The bread has a wonderful chew to it, the flavors were bright and balanced, and the vegetables adding the perfect crunch! I can't wait to go back!!! Washington D.C. was a last minute change up for us. We had plans to finally make it up to Quebec City in Canada. Mother nature had other plans though. The forecast was rain for our entire stay. When you are doing a road trip with your pet you hope to be outdoors almost the whole time. Neither of us thought being soaked would be a fun vaca. We decided why not head in the opposite direction to one of the most pet friendly destinations! Our plan was to leave at noon on Thursday but we got a little behind schedule and left a little after 1 p.m. Unfortunately this meant we would be hitting rush hour traffic all throughout our drive. We finally pulled up to our hotel for the night. We booked a room at The Darcy Washington D.C. The hotel recently changed over to the Curio Collection by Hilton and I have high hopes for it. We did run into a few small issues during our stay. During check in our profile somehow got changed to wanting a room close to the elevator. When we went up to our room it was directly in front of the elevators and would have caused a lot of ruckus during our stay. We went downstairs to ask for a different room. We were told that the hotel was very full but he was able to find one. What the staff neglected to tell us was that the room was tiny and awkwardly shaped. We found our later from the room service staff that all the corner rooms are that way. The second issue we ran into was that all but two towels in the bathroom had hairs on them. The third issue was that after our room was cleaned one day the trash was left behind. With that being said the staff were friendly, the design was modern yet warm, and the location couldn't be beat. After filling out a survey for our stay we received a call from one of the managers. The manager not only agreed that this issues shouldn't have happened but completely understood the responses from the staff should have been different. Furthermore she compensated us with reward points (we're Hilton Diamond Members). We decided that these instances probably were just new opening quirks that would surely be resolved with a little more experience. We will definitely give The Darcy a second look. After some much needed sleep we walked a few blocks over to Starbucks for some breakfast. Love a Venti Cold Brew and Pumpkin Bread to go! With the weather clearing up we decided to walk down to The White House. After a quick picture we made our way over to the National Mall. During our last trip to D.C. we toured the National Mall in it's entirety. This trip was really about just getting outside and walking around enjoying the scenery. We were happy to add to our pictures by venturing across the street to sit with Albert Einstein. For lunch we chose to enjoy Tapas at Taberna del Alabardero. This is where our day got interesting. The minute we opened the door the fire alarm started going off. We were seated at a table outside and offered menus and water. After a very long wait our drink order was taken. We enjoyed Cava and house white wine. Another 15 minutes goes by and our waiter comes by to tell us that we can order but they basically don't have anything besides cold dishes and Paella. The fire alarm we heard basically ended up causing the restaurant to put everything on hold until they got inspected and received the okay. We ended up ordering our favorite Iberico de Bellota ham, bread, and the vegetarian Paella. The ham as usual was buttery, savory, and perfectly sliced. The Paella was filled with a variety of vegetables, simply seasoned, and served with a lemon. A perfect lunch! One of the managers came out to our table and explained the situation also saying we were the last ones to be able to order the Paella. Phew! After lunch we hopped in a cab and headed back up to our hotel for a siesta! At dinner time we wanted something small and casual. I was thrilled to see that Shake Shack now has an allergy menu. I have never tried their food before so this was perfect timing. We walked just a block away and ordered three burgers (yes one for Fred too) and some fries. We then crossed the street to the convenience store for some more bottled waters before heading back to the hotel. I completely see what all the fuss is about. Shack Shack burgers have an amazing cook on them, the french fries are thick and yet crispy, and the toppings were fresh! Total Yum! After a good nights sleep we woke up and headed over to the U.S. National Arboretum. The Arboretum is pet friendly, beautiful, and very relaxing. We wandered through the National Herb Garden, National Capitol Columns, and the Asian Collections. Before leaving the area I stopped into the gift shop where I found lots of gifts for family. I also had a lovely conversation with the women working the store about her kids and the way things should be. Our next stop of the day was to George Washington's Mount Vernon. Based on our parking spot Mount Vernon was very very busy! We had a good walk over to the main entrance. We paid our entrance fees and walked into the pet friendly grounds. There was an incredibly long line to walk through the building and the next tour wasn't for an hour and a half so we wandered in front of and behind the house, into the stunning vegetable garden (my garden goal), and then by the stables. Further down the way we made our way to the burial site of George Washington. We couldn't take the combination of heat, full sun, and tourists any more so we started making our way back to the car. Before leaving I stopped into the gift shop for some wine, whiskey, and souvenirs. It was now late afternoon and we were getting pretty hungry but didn't want to risk getting stuck in traffic anywhere so we opted to head back to the hotel and grab Shake Shack again. We spent the rest of the afternoon with our burgers and a bottle of wine! Perfect combination of a sightseeing and relaxing day. When it came to dinner time we got a little lazy and opted to stay in - it's our vacation and if we needed to unwind so be it. We walked up the street to Maki Shop for some sushi rolls. The concept is great, the food was flavorful, but the staff weren't great. The staff ended up getting our order wrong and it wasn't noticed until we walked back to the hotel. The next morning we ended up leaving earlier than planned and thank goodness we did! We hit traffic, more traffic, and even more traffic! It took us much longer to get home than our other trips. No problem though we just keep listening to music and laughing along the way. My sister is getting married this year and as her matron of honor I had the pleasure of throwing her and her fiance a wedding shower. My mother was a huge help to me throughout the whole process. Together her and I found the perfect venue together. With the perfect room, delicious options, and wonderful staff we were thrilled to book The Hawthorn Hotel in Salem MA. The wedding will be taking place is Paris France later this year. On a side note stay tuned to hear about our stay in Paris including Versailles, Burgundy Region, Restaurants, Hotels, Airbnb, and the wedding venue itself! I wanted the shower to be a classic brunch but with subtle French influences. When guests entered the Grand Ballroom they could look for their names and tables on mini chalkboards. Next we asked for them to fill out advice cards with keys attached to them for our "Love Lock" Frame. For the centerpieces we found glass vases that were dipped in Gold paint. We worked with Salvy the Florist in Lynn MA to create a floral centerpiece that was soft colors and felt like it came right out of a garden. We were thrilled with the end result! For the table number cards I hand painted gold onto simple white frames. The interior was a combination of blue vintage look paper, white invitation cards, and scroll cut chalkboard paper. In addition to a traditional table setting we included two games. The first was bridal bingo and the second was he said she said. We chose the first two winners for each game and gave them boxes of French Macarons. The brunch menu consisted breads, pastries, eggs benedict, french toast, potatoes, ham, chicken and pasta, spinach salad, and mini pastries. The staff were also wonderful when dealing with food allergies. For a person with a gluten allergy they were able to make a separate Eggs Benedict with gluten free bread. For my dairy allergy they were able to make me a separate order of poached eggs. For drinks we offered our guests coffee, tea, mimosa's, bloody mary's, and non-alcoholic punch. Instead of going the traditional cake route I ordered a Croquembouche (french pastry consisting of cream puffs that have been dipped in caramel) from Caramel Patisserie in Salem MA. The Croquembouche was stunning and everyone raved about the flavors. Finally we created favors for our guests. The first item was small bunches of lavender sprays wrapped in natural colored tissue paper ties with raffia. The second item was a small gold box which held 2 Madeline cookies (that I baked including a gluten free option) and a small chocolate Eiffel Tower. I couldn't have been more thrilled with the way the day turned out. My sister and future brother in law were surprised and happy so it made everything worth it! We were a family of 6 and 2 dogs heading up to Bar Harbor ME for a holiday weekend getaway. We couldn't find any available houses on Airbnb so we decided to try vacation rentals.com. We found a perfect house for us! Diana Paine lists her home for visitors. The home had plenty of space, beds, seating areas, and many amenities. We especially loved being able to sit while listening to music on the sound system or playing the piano. Our first nights dinner was at Mache Bistro. We ordered a variety of appetizers and my sister and I were thrilled with being able to order a small bottle of Veuve Cliquot (My favorite). Our appetizers consisted of the Vinter Board, Frisee Salad, Boquerones Bruschetta, and the Two Blues Board. I can't quite remember what everyone else ordered but Greg and I dined on the Slow Roasted Pork and the Slow Cooked Duck Confit Leg. Overall the friendly service, variety of flavors, and the well executed entrees made for a delicious evening. After dinner we walked through town for dessert. Sadly my favorite ice cream shop CJ's Big Dipper didn't have their vegan and almond free ice creams ready yet. We went further down the main st and some of us got pastries and my amazing sister found chocolate ice cream for me made with coconut milk! For breakfast we went to one of our favorites. Two Cats Restaurant has something for everyone. I always enjoy the corned beef hash. After breakfast we walked around the main street a bit. Popping into the shops. Sadly I had a bad experience in one of my favorite stores. Inside A Little Mad not even 5 feet away from me the staff decided it was a good idea (while chatting to a local they knew) to make fun of tourists wearing Bar Harbor sweatshirts. I just happened to be wearing a Bar Harbor sweatshirt (the morning was cold and rainy and we were supposed to be going rock climbing so why not throw it on). I couldn't believe the nerve they had. Needless to say i put down the pieces of art and perfumes I was going to buy and left without spending a penny. I was also dismayed at their response on Tripadvisor. They reassured me that I misunderstood the employee and that while they were praised for being a store that didn't sell that typical merchandise they were friendly with other local shops that did. Did I fail to mention that we were a group of 6 adults who all heard it??? We continued on our way and purchased some local artisan products: gourmet olive oil, maple syrup, wooden kitchen bowls and more. There are so many wonderful shops in Bar Harbor so don't ever worry about having one bad experience. On the way back to the car I stopped back into CJ's Big Dipper and they had several flavors of their soy ice cream. Their soy ice cream and smooth, creamy, and not overly sweet. On this occasion I enjoyed their vanilla with raspberry swirl. After shopping we all went back to the house and had some much need rest. It was so wonderful that we all got to just read, listen to music, take a nap, and enjoy each others company. It has been a very busy year for all of us and a rainy day in was just what we needed. It was only 4 of us for dinner that evening and so we opted for a casual outing. We drove down the road to Mainely Meat BBQ at Atlantic Brewing Company. We found a table right away and while my dad went into the store to purchase some beer to bring home we ordered some drinks. For dinner we enjoyed pulled pork, ribs, coleslaw, potato salad, and beans. Delicious!! The next morning we awoke to sunshine and warmer temperatures! After breakfast we drove up the road to Asticou Azalea Garden. We took our time experiencing all the nooks and cranny's the garden has to offer. There are so many beautiful flowers to look at, stunning settings for pictures, and an overall relaxing feeling. For lunch we drove into Bar Harbor and opted for Peekytoe Provisions. We were able to get a table outside for the 6 us and the dogs. After finding a table we went inside to order. We ended up buying a couple bags of chips because the wait was going to be at least 30 minutes. Unfortunately, the food wasn't worth the wait. Items came out separately, incorrectly, and didn't hold up to their description. Since it was finally a nice day we were looking forward to driving through Acadia National Park. Apparently so were the other tourists. We had a bit of traffic once inside. It didn't stop us from finding great viewing point nor parking spots to get out and wander. Our last dinner in Bar Harbor was at Havana Restaurant. After walking to the back section of the property we were seated at a lovely table with a view of the wine room. To start our meal together we ordered the Spring Rolls, Braised Pork Belly, Mussels Borracho and the Vegetarian Mixed Grill. The bread basket was filled with warm and scrumptious bread (I couldn't enjoy it but everyone loved the cornbread) that we used to soak up the mussels broth as well as the aioli. For entrees we ordered the Seafood Paella, Fish of the Day, Scallops, Flank Steak, Lobster Moqueca, and the Pork and Beans. The portion sizes were plentiful, seasonings were bold and yet not overpowering, and the temperatures were perfect. Havana was the perfect choice for our final dinner of vacation. We had tickets to go to a viewing of The Princess Bride and Q&A with Cary Elwes. Before heading over to the Theater District we decided to try dinner at Pabu. We arrived a little early and had a few moments wait until we were seated. We ended up with a table with a view of downtown crossing. We ordered drinks from the Bar thanks to recommendations from another employee. Our server was friendly and very funny however after the initial start we hardly saw him. The restaurant has a variety of food runners and we saw them more than our server. We opted for the Omakase menu which meant we would be dining on only sushi. Our 9 course meal was filled with a variety of delicious and fresh seafood. I was thrilled to see that at the end of our meal the staff made a dairy free dessert for me! While we enjoyed our meal we agreed that we prefer an Omakase that has selections for both the cold and hot selections (Morimoto Asia and Oishii have been some of our favorites). After dinner we raced over to the Wilbur Theater. Minus the horribly uncomfortable seats we thoroughly enjoyed watching The Princess Bride and hearing wonderful and hilarious stories from Cary Elwes!

Circumspect means that we walk in a way that is careful and avoids risks, checking very carefully behind ourselves, every step of the way. Wouldn’t this world be a much better place if we all did that? Scripture tells us in Ephesians 5:15-17 (NKJV), “See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be unwise but understand what the will of the Lord is.” Folks, we all know that evil is all around us. Ephesians 5:16-17 says, “Therefore, do not be unwise but understand what the will of the Lord is.” We are often chasing a mirage, a figment of our imagination. I don’t feel like it causes us to be lackadaisical on this side of life. We have the capacity to do more. Do you feel stuck in one place, your body is here, but your mind is somewhere else? Each of us finds ourselves living in a capsule of time. That time does not belong to us, it belongs to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. It was He who sent us into this world, and when the end comes, it is our Lord and Savior who will take us out. We must be willing to do God’s work sacrificially. We’ve got to stop saying, “I don’t feel like going to church today,” which is really a hint from Satan when you give in like that and decide to not get up and get yourself dressed to go to church. Every time I go against those negative thoughts, I get a blessing. We must be willing to live the life we sing about, and practice what we hear in sermons each Sunday. Then when we read the Word on our own, we must truly know the Lord in the pardon of our own sins. Saints, let each of us be a light. In Psalm 119:105 KJV, the Scripture says, “God’s Word is the light that guides us through a dark world. Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” We have an enemy who wants to destroy us, the accuser of the brethren. When you put on the whole armor of God. When we do put on the armor, we are never blindsided. Ephesians 6:12 says, “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Thank God for the battles He fights for us, seen and unseen. Ask for His Divine protection. The Lord knows what we face, we cannot fight these battles alone. For each person reading this column, get in the spirit of God, ask Him to get in our bodies. Call on the name of the Lord Jesus and ask Him to set us free. Scripture also says, “He whom the sons set free is free indeed.” Set us free from sickness, Lord, no more unrest in our hearts. You have come to give us life and more abundantly. Thank you, Lord! Scripture says, “Come to me all who are burdened and heavy laden and I will give you rest.” We are asking for a supernatural breakthrough. Ask God to forgive you, if you have taken His grace and mercy for granted. We declare that no weapon formed again my health will prosper, declare that no weapon formed against my finance will prosper. Continue to bless Father, as we continue to call upon you. We believe by faith that you are working on our behalf; and I am walking by faith, and not by sight. In the book of Exodus, it says, “The Lord will fight our battles, keep me from falling. Be a lamp unto my feet. We glorify your precious name.” Prayer will reveal things, it will give us peace. It is our communion with the Most High God. It will strengthen our inner man. It releases the power to break chains, to destroy generational curses, it is power, those things fought in power. We must always have our eyes set on Jesus Christ; He is the only one who should be at the center of your prayer. Begin to pray with a higher level to have a stronger more intimate level with Jesus Christ. Lyndia Grant is a speaker/writer living in the D.C. area.

Man convicted in shooting death of 9-year-old lured into alley A jury convicted a man of first-degree murder Thursday night in thewho was lured into an alley with the promise of a juice box. A separate jury for co-defendant Corey Morgan was sequestered for the night after they didn’t reach a verdict and will resume deliberations Friday. Prosecutors contended that Dwright Boone-Doty and fellow gang member Corey Morgan planned the November 2015 killing of Tyshawn Lee before Boone-Doty took a gun Morgan gave him and shot the boy. The Cook County jury that found Boone-Doty guilty deliberated for a little more than two hours after a long day of closing arguments. Prosecutors said Tyshawn was killed because Boone-Doty and Morgan believed his father belonged to a rival gang they blamed for fatally shooting Morgan’s brother and wounding his mother. The fourth grader, still wearing his school uniform, had headed to a park to play basketball. Boone-Doty befriended Tyshawn to gain his trust after the boy arrived at the park, prosecutors said. He picked up the basketball that boy had brought to the park, lured him into a nearby alley and shot him with a .40-caliber handgun multiple times at close range while Morgan watched from an SUV, they said. “This was a targeted assassination,” acting Chicago police superintendent John Escalante said at the time. “These are calculated killers whose actions define the words brutality and cowardice.” Prosecutors said tests revealed that Boone-Doty’s DNA was on the basketball found near the boy’s body. Boone-Doty’s lawyer tried to cast doubt on the DNA evidence. The 25-year-old Boone-Doty faces up to life in prison. Morgan, 31, and Boone-Doty were tried together but before the separate juries. The trial lasted for nearly three weeks. Prosecutors played a tape of Boone-Doty bragging to another jail inmate that he’d killed the boy. Boone-Doty’s lawyer dismissed the tape, saying that Boone-Doty was lying to the other inmate to make himself look tough. A third man charged in the attack, Kevin Edwards, pleaded guilty to first-degree murder before going on trial. Edwards, who prosecutors described as the getaway driver, received a 25-year prison sentence in exchange for his plea.

Why You Should Adopt A New B2B Email Marketing Strategy The email marketing industry is incredibly competitive, and a lot of companies are finding it increasingly difficult to maintain the momentum they had just a few years ago. This is probably not surprising when you consider the fact that emails are still sent by hand - and in this age of automation, there is no longer room for error or mistakes. A blog post about why companies should adopt new email strategies to avoid falling behind. Email marketing still comes up in the media, but what's not being told is that email marketing strategies are changing with new innovations. From optimizing subject lines to encouraging open rates and personalization, there are tons of ways to tailor your emails to your audience. Plus, it doesn't have to be difficult thanks to these email marketing tools! Email marketing is a widely used tool for making it easier to reach your customers.

Even with recent major snow in the Sierra Nevada a survey at Phillips Station reveals the current snow pack is well below average. The survey conducted at the Phillips snow course measures the depth of the snow but also calculates the Snow Water Equivalent or SWE. SWE is the depth of water that theoretically would result if the entire snowpack melted instantaneously. That measurement is more important than depth in evaluating the status of the snowpack. The snowpack – often called California’s “frozen reservoir “– normally provides about a third of the water for California’s farms and communities as it melts in the spring and summer and fills reservoirs and rivers. The Phillips snow course, near the intersection of Highway 50 and Sierra-at-Tahoe Road, is one of 260 that are surveyed manually throughout the winter. Manual measurements augment the electronic readings from the snow pillows in the Sierra Nevada that provide a current snapshot of the water content in the snow pack. The snow survey conducted March 5, 2018, was the second measurement at Phillips Station for this snow survey period. On February 28, a snow survey found a SWE of 1.7 inches, or just 7 percent of average for that time of year as recorded since 1964. The second measurement on March 5, 2018 yielded a 32 percentage-point increase in SWE over the previous week where the snow water equivalent (SWE) was 9.4 inches, which is 39 percent of normal for early March. The March 1 average at Phillips is 24.3 inches SWE. Results of the readings by DWR at Phillips Station: Compared to a survey conducted a year ago on March 1, 2017 March 1, 2017 manual snow survey by the Department of Water Resources (DWR) at Phillips Station in the Sierra Nevada found a snow water equivalent (SWE) of 43.4 inches. One good thing to consider is that California’s exceptionally high precipitation last winter and spring has resulted in above-average storage in 154 reservoirs tracked by the Department. DWR estimates total storage in those reservoirs at the end of February 2018 was 24.6 million acre feet (MAF), or about 100 percent of the 24.7 MAF average for the end of February. In addition to the manual surveys conducted at Phillips, DWR also logs electronic readings from 103 stations scattered throughout the Sierra. Electronic measurements indicate the SWE of the northern Sierra snow pack is 7.4 inches, 30 percent of the multi-decade average for March 5th. The central and southern Sierra readings are 11.5 inches (43 percent of average) and 8.7 inches (37 percent of average) respectively. Statewide, the snow pack SWE is 9.5 inches, or 37 percent of the March 5 average. Electronic snow pack readings are available at: http://bit.ly/2rVa84a California’s climate is the most variable of any state. Historically, it swings from drought to flood and back to drought. To help prepare for these ever-wider extremes, Californians can learn ways to save water every day by visiting SaveOurWater.com.

Google’s Blogger has released a new Android app that allows bloggers to update on the go. With the app, users can switch between different accounts and blogs (for which they have author rights) and post accordingly. You can compose posts, attach photos, assign labels, and save them as a drafts or go ahead and publish them. "Saving as draft is handy if you need to wait until you have Internet connectivity," notes Blogger’s Vinay Sekhri. "If you see something interesting, you can take a photo directly from the app and include it in the blog post," Sekhri adds. "You can also browse your gallery to include the ones you like." The app also makes Blogger an option for sharing photos as you come across them in the gallery or on a website. The app also comes equipped with a feature that lets you share your location by simply activating the location bar and selecting the correct location. The location info will appear in the blog post. Users can view saved and published posts by going to list view, and when you long-press on a published post, it brings up a menu including the option to view your post in a browser. The app is now available in the Android Market. The company says while it is only for Android right now, the app will make its way to other smartphone platforms in the future.

Back in the old days I used to carefully trim my articles and photos out of the newspaper and glue them into a “string book”. When I applied for jobs, those spiral notebooks filled with yellowing newsprint served as my writing portfolio. Thank goodness technology has streamlined this writer essential. And, there’s no more glue fumes! So, do you have an online writing portfolio? Although I’ve been writing online full time for the past five years (and as a side project since 1998!) , I never took the time to create one. I know. I know. Even after I started Web Writing Advice, I didn’t get it done. I’ve been searching for a great WordPress plugin to showcase my recently published pieces, but nothing seems to work right. Then I got an email. One of the content marketing companies that I write for created a free, public online portfolio for me. The best part? I can feature any of my web writing on the page! There are many, many free websites out there offering profile pages. But if you want my opinion, check out the free portfolio from Skyword. Why? Because you’ll also get your name thrown into their pool of writers and might land a great online writing gig.

The best way to predict the next big fashion trend is to remember my catchphrase: “Never is the next new thing™.” The styles that are most hated at first — the ones that make people say, “Never!” — are the ones that are hottest once our eyes adjust. Since I figured this out, whenever I think, “I would never wear that,” my next thought is, “I can guarantee I’ll be wearing that.” Occasionally, I have a micro “Never is the next new thing™” experience: It’s not trend-worthy, but it’s definitely a personal change of heart. It happened to me last year with animal-toe shoes. It just happened to me again with arm warmers. I came “thisclose” to mentioning them disapprovingly in Saturday’s post about Madonna and aging, because a few gossip bloggers have suggested that Madonna is wearing arm warmers to hide crinkly elbows. In my post, I noted that elbows do indeed deteriorate aesthetically as the years go by. I was going to add that if Madonna is wearing the arm warmers for that reason, I wish she would give them up and flaunt her old elbows. Wrinkly elbow pride! But I’d already noted that she’s said to wear fingerless gloves to cover aging hands, so the general point had been made. Meanwhile, it completely slipped my mind that I have charcoal rib-knit arm warmers that go with the sleeveless shearling vest I got from designer/blogger Stacy Lomman’s Fall 2012 collection. That combination made sense to me. After all, if the weather is cool enough to wear a shearling vest with a knit collar, it’s too cool for bare arms. Stacy says, “I personally own fleece vests, neoprene vests, and chunky sleeveless sweater knits. Vests can easily be worn over thick turtlenecks with long sleeves, so I think they’re great layering pieces. Still, I thought the arm warmers offered another option that is very fashion forward.” Edgy but practical! It’s such a pleasure when designers are realistic like that. I was inspired to wear Stacy’s arm warmers for the first time yesterday — only one day after I gave the side-eye to Madonna’s arm warmers. It was chilly outside, but I wanted to wear my Fall 2011 silver, wool Stacy Lomman jacket with 3/4-length sleeves. I’ve been obsessively wearing that over a short-sleeved black t-shirt for more than a month, with a winter coat over the whole thing. I wanted to skip the coat this time but I worried I’d be cold in the cropped sleeves. Then I remembered the arm warmers. In my short sleeves, I didn’t feel as constricted as I do in many long-sleeved t-shirts and sweaters, but when I got a little warm, I could take the jacket off without freezing. And if I had gotten really hot, I could have taken off the arm warmers and stashed them in my purse. Speaking of heat, I told Stacy I thought arm warmers would be the perfect layering piece for women having menopausal hot flashes. What?!? It could be big business. (And they do hide those pesky elbows!) I only got a bleary Instagram photo of yesterday’s jacket/arm warmer outfit, but it’s a photo that’s totally worth $1 billion. (Yo, newly rich Instagram peeps, call me for all your luxury jewelry needs.) I was using my better camera to take a picture of Stacy wearing her red and royal blue wool-tweed crop jacket, also from her Fall 2012 collection. Later, I wished I’d asked Stacy take a picture of me for an outfit post. Luckily, today’s weather continued being not-too-hot, not-too-cold. Perfect for the sleeveless vest with arm warmers. Like the silver jacket, it’s got a motorcycle vibe. Stacy says that look is becoming one of her signature styles. “I did [the motorcycle style] in grey/silver with elbow-length sleeves for Fall ’11 and then I repeated it as a sleeveless vest in Spring ’12 in neoprene. So, I thought leather or fur would be a logical progression for a new fall season.” I was wearing the vest and arm warmers when I visited Jean Kormos of Ghost Tailor — the creator of the Nobel-Prize dress I wrote about for the Huffington Post . She took some outfit pictures for me in her studio. Ghost Tailor is a full-service operation. Alterations and blogging assistance, all in one place. What Wendy Wore Jacket and arm warmers: Stacy Lomman (2012) Jeans: Citizens of Humanity (2011) Bag: Prada (2009) Scarf: Alexander McQueen (2010) Shoes: Prada (2010) Rings: My own designs Jean was impressed with the profile of the vest, created by gathering in the back. I was excited that she noticed because Stacy struggled to do that. She doesn’t have the industrial-strength sewing machine that would normally be used on such a tough material. I kept telling her to skip it; that the vest was great without any pleats in the back. She insisted that it would make all the difference. She was right. But this “Never is the next new thing™” moment has a history pre-dating Madonna’s arm warmers. The seeds were sown in 2010, when Brioni’s shoulder-length gloves gave Stacy and me the giggles. “Then Stacy patiently pulled one on,” I wrote at the time, “and it looked amazing.” In 2011, Brioni’s women’s line was discontinued, which is sad because the clothes and accessories were gorgeous and so well-made. At least we can console ourselves with Stacy’s clothes. If you want to place an order for a custom-made piece, you can contact Stacy via her website.

Fat, Sick, & Nearly Dead Australian Joe Cross came to America for sixty days but didn’t eat the food while he was here. Instead he went on a juice fast. Joe weighed over three hundred pounds and suffered from an unpleasant skin condition. He spent about a month in New York and later took a road trip across the country to California. Before setting off on his road trip, Joe stopped in to see Dr. Joel Fuhrman. Naturally Dr. Fuhrman was very supportive of the juice fast. I couldn’t help noticing Fuhrman’s frightening food pyramid visible in the background of a few shots. Vegetables were at the base and as you ascended the pyramid, the better the food, the less of it you are supposed to eat. During the first few days of Joe’s juice diet he admitted to feeling lousy, didn’t want to get out of bed, and he looked weak. After an adjustment period and probably some detoxification, he felt better, or was at least able to look like he felt better. As Joe traveled across the country he talked to a lot of people. Many of them were very funny. He asked an older woman if diet was important and her response was, “If you don’t want to be constipated, you got to eat the right food.” Many were quite clear that they thought he was crazy. A common response from those who tried his juice was a wrinkled nose and a comment that they would not join him on his fast. He asked a teenage girl if she would change her mind about eating fruits and vegetables if she knew they would keep her healthy. She said no. When he asked her why not, her response was, “Because I’m sixteen.” Yes, she most certainly is. In Kansas Joe stopped to shoot the breeze with a gun shop owner whose brother was a vegetarian and had cancer. That man obviously was not enticed by the juice fast. Another man had a similar response. He said he would rather die happy than starve and live a long time. Or at least it would seem like a long time. The DVD includes animated scenes of the mythical hunter-gatherer who runs hard on an empty stomach every day. The hunter-gatherers I’m familiar with did not live that way. Modern hunters like to use guns which are very good for killing one animal and scaring the rest of them away. Looking at an example from the continent Joe Cross comes from, the Australian Aborigines were smarter hunters. For instance, they would use hollow reeds as snorkels and sneak up on a group of ducks or geese from under water. They would quietly pull everything they wanted under while the other birds had no idea what was going on. They got a lot more than one at a time that way and it didn’t require a lot of running around on an empty stomach. I also have my doubts that traditional healthy cultures like the Aborigines stayed healthy by juicing. It is pretty clear even in the film that you can’t live on juice alone forever, and it is a little murky exactly what the recommended diet is aside from one dominated by plants. One common denominator shared by all those who pursue the several variants of juice fasting is that they quit fast food. That makes me wonder what might happen if they forget the juicing and just give up the fast food. Joe did find some people desperate enough to try the juice fast, most notably Phil the trucker. Both Joe and Phil lost a lot of weight and resolved other health problems as a result of the fast. They both seem like nice guys and it is heartwarming to see them looking healthier and happier. I have seen similar results with people like Richard Morris, except he didn’t do the dreaded juicing fast. He ate a WAPF diet and wasn’t miserable while doing it. I’ll leave it up to the reader to decide which method you would prefer. I’m not a fan of juicing but the thumb is DOWN mainly because, once again, fat-soluble vitamins are ignored and vegetables are claimed to be more nutrient dense than animal foods. This article appeared in Wise Traditions in Food, Farming and the Healing Arts, the quarterly magazine of the Weston A. Price Foundation, Winter 2011.🖨️ Print post

CALIFORNIA — The wildfires in California continue to burn everything in their paths, and the death toll is rising past 40 victims. There are hundreds more reported missing in northern California as the search for survivors and victims continue. Springfield native and current Los Angeles Times reporter Ben Poston is not only reporting on these wildfires, he’s also affected by them personally. He lives in western Malibu. His complex sustained a lot of fire and water damage. Now he says there’s another worry: Looters. “What they were doing was going into units that had already been broken down by firefighters,” said Poston. “It’s weird. [It’s the] first time covering a natural disaster where I’m personally affected,” he said. “It’s terrifying. Absolutely terrifying.” Today, News Center 7 spoke with a firefighter in the Los Angeles area whose career spans 30 years. Capt. Tom Haus of the Los Angeles Fire Department was asked to make an educated guess on how long the fires will burn. “Probably about two to three weeks to have 100 percent containment,” he said. However, recovery will take years. The Camp Fire is the deadliest — and most destructive — in California’s history. In southern California, it’s the Woolsey Fire. Some people haven’t been heard from since flames tore through their town on Thursday. “We’re going to bring in the human remains detective dogs — cadaver dogs,” said Butte County Sheriff Kory Honea. President Trump has already approved a major disaster declaration to help with the recovery effort.

The 2011 NORWAY ATTACKS were a pair of Christian terrorist against the civilian population, the government, and a political summer camp in Norway on July 22, 2011. The first was a car bomb explosion in Regjeringskvartalet, the executive government quarter of Oslo, in the evening rush hour, about 6:30 p.m, outside the office of the Prime Minister and other government buildings. The explosion killed eight people and wounded several others, with more than 10 people critically injured.The second was an armed assault on a youth summer camp on Utoya Island. A gunman disguised as a policeman opened fire at the campers, killing 68, including personal friends of Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg and the stepbrother of Norway’s crown princess Mette-Marit. Lesbians HEGE DALEN and her partner TORIL HANSEN were eating supper in the camping area opposite Utoya island the site of the summer camp when they started hearing gunshots and screaming. Dalen and Hansen drove their boat to the island, and fished out of the water people who were in shock and young people who were injured and transported them ashore. Every now and then bullets almost hit the boat. Since they couldn’t fit everyone into the boat all at once, they returned to the island four times. They might have saved as much as forty people from the clutches of the killer.

When it comes to IT support, many businesses place great importance on the possibility of receiving a round-the-clock support service. The idea of having expert help available at all times is appealing when so much of modern business relies on speed and technology. As such, an IT service provider may advertise 24/7 IT services as a significant part of their services. However, this can be costly for the provider and can be an unnecessary expense for the client. In truth, 24/7 IT support is rarely used by most small to medium businesses. We’ve broken down the interest surrounding 24/7 support to answer the question: is 24/7 IT support as important as people think it is? The pros of offering 24/7 IT support When it comes to offering 24/7 IT support, one major benefit is discussed most frequently: better customer service and meeting customer expectations. In a world where fast responses and 24/7 availability are crucial to success, having a reliable support service that can handle issues whenever they arise is a considerable benefit. Consequently, most businesses want to work with a business that is as responsive as they are. Another major benefit of having 24/7 IT support is to improve cyber security and protect against threats. With new cyber-attacks being developed daily, round-the-clock monitoring can help prevent attacks from penetrating too far into a system before being detected. Swift reactions to counteract cyber-attacks help to minimise damage and protect the business. Furthermore, any issue, whether caused by external attacks or a platform or system malfunctioning, can have serious consequences. The longer a system is malfunctioning, the more expensive it can be to fix and repair any damage. Not to mention systems that aren’t working correctly or are preventing users from completing their work can be incredibly disruptive to operations, costing the business even more money. With IT professionals on hand, a situation can be resolved with minimal disruption or high cost. Finally, any business offering 24/7 IT support will be able to attract a more global client base. Support that is out-of-hours for the main office may be the best time to work with clients in multiple time zones. The cons of offering 24/7 IT support With so many benefits to providing 24/7 IT support, it’s no surprise that many support providers and their clients believe having access to their support provider at all times is vital. However, paying for 24/7 support isn’t always necessary and could be a waste of money. Offering 24/7 support comes with increased staffing costs and more logistical challenges, which can mean offering 24/7 support just isn’t financially beneficial. From hiring more staff and providing enough workspaces for everyone to the possibility of remote teams, changes in tax status, and increased utility bills, financial constraints are easily the biggest drawback to offering 24/7 support. Aside from the financial cost of investing in 24/7 support, there is an increased logistical challenge. With more staff comes more users who need access to every part of a system which could cause overlap, miscommunication, and other issues associated with unnecessary permission. There is also an increased chance of miscommunication when no longer using a single dedicated team. Passing support tickets over to an out-of-hours team can lead to confusion. Without rigorous checks and dedicated communication channels, there is often misunderstanding and human error when using more than one team to offer non-stop IT support. Alternatives to 24/7 IT support Understandably, providing ongoing IT support isn’t always an option. Financial restrictions, client expectations, and staffing numbers mean some IT support companies cannot offer this level of support. However, there are alternative ways to support a business during out-of-hours operations. Firstly, many IT companies provide standard IT helpdesk ticketing support. Clients can report issues anytime and add customer feedback, and the helpdesk or support team can respond during the standard working day. By using a support ticket system, clients can see the progress of their problem and how likely it is that they will get a swift response and can plan work accordingly. Self-service and automation Similarly, chatbots or automated response channels can provide essential support services and assistance without staff members needing to monitor the situation. Setting up bots to provide an instant response is crucial to keeping a happy customer and getting minor issues resolved fast. Another very popular option is to set up automatic backups and monitoring processes that can continue without supervision. This way, major incidents can be prevented by automatically implementing pre-configured changes in response to specific issues. For example, if a sensor or platform registers a certain issue or reaches a set limit, it can be programmed to automatically back up the data, send an alert or even shut down until it can be handled during a normal business day. Often, standard businesses don’t need 24/7 support services and only require emergency or crisis support. It may be more than enough to communicate to your clients that although you don’t offer 24/7 IT support, you will be on hand for real emergencies. Speak to your clients and set service level agreements to refine how often emergency support can be given before it incurs additional charges. How to determine the right level of IT support for your business Offering 24/7 support can vary from business to business; Some companies provide full support at all times, while others offer a more restricted service out-of-hours. As an IT support company, offering the appropriate level of support is crucial to winning new business and maintaining a client base. Still, it isn’t always clear how much support is correct. Here are a few things to consider when determining how much IT support to offer: Do your clients need support around the clock? How often would clients use out-of-hours IT support? Would a delay in IT support make a problem significantly worse? Do your clients work in a time-sensitive industry? How much would it cost your business to offer 24/7 IT support? Would automated responses and helpdesk ticketing satisfy most of your potential customers? Could you implement more effective preventative measures to minimize the need for continual IT support? There may be better options than offering 24/7 IT support for your business. Every IT support business can offer unique, adapted services based on their expertise and client base. In many cases, IT support companies work with third-party helpdesks to outsource troubleshooting support with the option of 24/7 availability. When it comes to offering 24/7 IT support, every company has to decide based on their available recourses and client base. Round-the-clock support services can be very expensive to implement and may cost more than it generates. With added logistical complications, some businesses work with a third-party support company to offer 24/7 support without the initial investment. Overall, many companies can benefit from 24/7 support, so unless it isn’t an option, offering round-the-clock support can be a significant attraction. Generally, it’s best to provide this level of support as an extra so companies that can’t afford or don’t need continual support don’t have to pay for something they won’t use; it’s the best of both worlds!

Dillon Danis has recently been in the news because he went crazy while trolling Nina Agdal, who is engaged to Logan Paul. In October, Danis and Paul will fight in the squared circle in Manchester. Read on to find more details. Why is Dillon Danis putting up pictures of Logan Paul’s fiancee? Sportskeeda states that Dillon Danis has chosen to find out about Paul’s fiancee’s past relationships as a new form of mental warfare in the lead-up to the match. It all started with a photo of Agdal with Leonardo DiCaprio, now known for meeting young women under 25. Danis’s plan got much attention on social media, and many people told him to keep looking into Agdal’s past. The Danish model has been with Adam Levine of Maroon 5, Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers, and Max George, the lead singer of The Wanted. Dillon Danis started posting pictures of Agdal with her ex-boyfriends repeatedly, finally making Logan Paul mad enough to send him a letter telling him to stop. Danis was also banned from Twitter briefly, but when he was let back on, he was even meaner than before. He posted a video of Agdal with the son of beauty Christie Brinkley, Jack Brinkley Cook. Feel free to explore the following write-ups: - What Happened to Tim Tebow Post-Gainesville? - The Interesting Stories Behind Jeremy Allen White’s Tattoos - Is Jelly Roll related to Waylon Jennings? Dillon Danis asks Logan Paul why he isn’t standing up for his girlfriend Dillon Danis has been sharing pictures of Nina Agdal almost daily, so her dating history has become a public show in the past few months. Danis has also recently asked why Logan Paul hasn’t done anything to protect his soon-to-be wife. WWE’s Logan Paul is said to have sent Dillon Danis a legal notice after a photo of his fiancee. WWE’s Logan Paul reportedly sent Dillon Danis a legal notice after seeing a photo of his fiancée Before their boxing match on October 14, Logan Paul and Dillon Danis had been going back and forth, and it quickly got nasty. Danis went too far when he shared pictures of Paul’s fiancee, Nina Agdal, on social media, including a naked image of the supermodel and a photo of her kissing someone else, as per reports of Bleacher Report. On Saturday, Danis shared a tweet: “Logan Paul allegedly sent a legal notice to Dillon Danis telling him to stop posting photos of his fiancee.” Felix Upton of Ringside News said, “It looks like Danis is putting his seal of approval on this as a fact.” Danis is a skilled Brazilian jiu-jitsu grappler who fights for Bellator MMA. He has a 2-0 record in mixed martial arts. Since June 2019, he hasn’t fought for money. The 29-year-old was supposed to fight YouTuber KSI in a boxing show this year, but he backed out ten days before the fight. It’s still not clear if Danis will get in the ring this time, but after taking personal shots at his fiancee, it’s clear that Paul wants them to fight so they can end their feud.

Philodendron Brandtianum aka Brandi for short is a collectible and highly sought-after philodendron with olive green leaves with striking gray mottling and silver markings. The attractive heart-shaped leaves grow densely on the vining stems and need a support to climb on or it can be grown as a hanging basket where with a little encouragement it makes a beautiful specimen. If allowed to climb and attach to a support, the leaves can get quite large. If allowed to trail, the leaves remain small. Grow in partial sun to shade and dry out between waterings. Easy one for novice or experienced plant lovers! This plant comes in a 4" grower's pot, has one growth point, and has 8 luscious leaves at the time it arrived in our shop!

Are science and spirituality “non-overlapping magisteria” (as the late Stephen J. Gould put it), or can some overlap indeed be found? B. Alan Wallace, lecturer, scholar, and noted Buddhist practitioner, believes that it’s time for scientists and meditators to team up (and indeed for scientists to become meditators) in order to study the mind from within. Alan Wallace became a Buddhist monk in the early 1970s, ordained by the Dalai Lama in India. After 14 years of training and retreats, he returned to the US to study physics and the history and philosophy of science. Since then he’s been trying to find meeting points for his two enthusiasms — Buddhism and science — and this book (written with the help of journalist Brian Hodel) is the latest of several grappling with some of the very profound issues that Buddhism and science spark off in each other.

Time in the glass brings out the wine's inner perfume, with hints of espresso, chocolate, grilled herbs and red cherry jam that add nuance to the sepia-toned flavors.

In 2016 the James Watrous Gallery presented an exhibition called Beading Culture: Raised Beadwork and the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin, organized in partnership with the Oneida Nation Museum and the Oneida Nation Arts Program. Beading Culture shared the story of how the Wisconsin Oneida are keeping their beadwork tradition vital and relevant in the 21st century. As a corollary to the exhibit, we asked Karen Ann Hoffman (Oneida) and Melanie Tallmadge Sainz (Ho-Chunk) to share their perspective on supporting and promoting Native art and artists. Both women have a wealth of experience as artists, educators, curators, advocates, and bridge-builders. We hope their insights will inform and inspire others who would like to pursue a similar path. This interview was conducted by Beading Culture co-curator Anne Pryor at Native Presence Gallery in April 2017. Funding was provided in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and by the Wisconsin Humanities Council, with funds from the National Endowment for the Humanities. A few notes about references made in this interview, in sequential order: - Pounding ash refers to the traditional method of pounding ash logs to create splints for basketmaking. - Aldo Leopold Nature Center co-sponsored a series of workshops with Little Eagle Arts Foundation (LEAF).

By Jonny Lupsha, Wondrium Staff Writer Author Jane Austen’s opinions on slavery have long been debated among fans. Her brother was recently discovered to have been a delegate to an abolition convention. Austen’s popularity skyrocketed posthumously. One particular facet of Jane Austen’s legacy that scholars and fans have debated for decades is the author’s position on slavery and race in the early 1800s. Recently, another piece of the puzzle may have fallen into place. Preeminent Austen scholar Dr. Devoney Looser, a Foundation Professor of English at Arizona State University, discovered that Austen’s brother served as a delegate to the World Anti-Slavery Convention in 1840. It may coincide with her expressed love for abolitionist author Thomas Clarkson. Jane Austen’s popularity has grown immensely since her death in July 1817 at the young age of 41. In Dr. Looser’s video series The Life and Works of Jane Austen for The Great Courses, she explained how Austen’s fame and recognition really took off beginning 15 years after her death. “It was in the 1830s that Austen’s fame really took off,” Dr. Looser said. “Then, her novels were republished as a set in England and America, to steady sales. Reissuing her novels in that decade significantly furthered her reach and popularity, at home and abroad.” Additionally, Dr. Looser said, this marked the first time that Austen’s novels were illustrated, which helped emphasize their Gothic and melodramatic scenes as well as their focus on intimacy between two women. The 1830s editions of her works were bought from Austen’s family for £210 GBP and marked the last time the Austens were involved financially in her work. They have remained in print since then. “But it wasn’t only the full-length novels themselves that made Austen a literary star,” Dr. Looser said. “What we’re learning from emerging studies is that Austen had a growing fan following throughout the 19th century, based on her work in excerpts and adaptations of all kinds, as well as through continued mention in newspapers and magazines.” According to Dr. Looser, it was around this time that the public learned just how highly other authors held Austen in regard. Novelists Mary Russell Mitford and Maria Edgeworth both sang Austen’s praises. Break a Leg “Other things, too, extended the approval and applause of the public and kept Austen’s name before a mass audience,” Dr. Looser said. “The first dramatizations of Austen’s fiction happened in late 1895, but once her stories had made the transformation, their popularity took off. Much of their exposure was thanks to the pioneering efforts of actor and drama teacher Rosina Filippi.” Filippi wrote and acted in the first ever adaptation of Austen’s works for the stage, which was a 1901 play loosely based on Pride and Prejudice. While the play wasn’t a big success, Filippi’s earlier book of Austen’s scenes was. It found a large audience in emerging girls’ schools, perhaps lending to Austen’s posthumous popularity within the suffrage movement. “At the same time, one of Jane Austen’s collateral descendants, Florence Austen-Leigh, held a leadership role in an anti-suffrage organization, advocating that women not be granted the right to vote,” Dr. Looser said. “In political debate, Austen has been claimed by liberals and conservatives alike, with her own politics notoriously difficult to pin down. Such debate continues to this day.” This ambiguous position on women’s rights by the famed author circles back to the debate over her stance on slavery and race, on which Dr. Looser herself recently shed new light.

Almaty’s Changing Musical Rule Book Traveling across central Asia, Nicholas Pritchard discovers musical acts of dissent in Almaty, Kazakhstan. Our problems have now risen to such a height as to render any solutions seemingly superfluous. Climate disasters, widening economic inequality, and the strong hands of the authoritarian close in on all sides. Confusion is the only state we can be certain of. One could be forgiven for thinking that we are all heading straight down into darkness. And yet acts of dissent are visible from all corners of the globe—one of which is to be seen in Almaty, Kazakhstan’s second city, where a small number of musicians are bringing their art and activism to a country that has been hearing monotones for many years. We met them by accident. In the center of Almaty is an old warehouse building, now called Transforma, which has been reappropriated by artists and craftspeople. It’s typical of anything you’d likely find in Shoreditch or Brooklyn; high ceilings, bare rooms with a few plastic chairs at the center, empty beer cans with cigarette butts spewing out the top. It was a Saturday when we arrived, and there weren’t many people. We saw only a figure slouched in a darkened corner and, opposite, a tall, slim couple fitting T-shirts to mannequins under bright lights. Ruslan would tell us later that rents were rising and everyone was getting ready to move out. It was our last day in central Asia. I’d traveled with a photographer, Pauline Blanchet, for the last several weeks from Turkey, across the Caspian, through Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan. The day before we’d taken shared taxis and hitchhiked through the east of Kyrgyzstan and into Kazakhstan. The border crossing was a small cluster of buildings, and the steppes were wide and fertile until they reached the snowy mountains that are China’s western border. We’d arranged to go to a BBQ with some people who were based at Transforma, but when we arrived, there was no one there, only a café worker reclining next to an enormous statue of the Hindu god Ganesh. Dejected, we headed up the metal staircase to find the closest bar. “Can I help you?” That’s Ruslan. He’s tall and skinny with an authoritative face of clear skin, strong cheekbones, and a general demeanor bordering on the angelic. He says that he’s a creative producer for a group called Qazaq Indie, working with musicians and poets, one of which, a poet, sidles up beside him. “This is Samrat,” he says, pointing at the man next to him. There was to be a concert that night featuring some of the acts Ruslan is involved with. Will we meet him there and he can tell us about his work? Samrat agrees to show us the way to the venue. Walking past Soviet-era monuments and the burgeoning array of Dior, Gucci, and Versace stores, the three of us begin to discuss Kazakh politics. The republic was formed in 1991 following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Nursultan Nazarbayev took the president’s office and held it until March 2019 when his chosen successor, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, took over—though Nazarbayev still holds various positions including head of the Nur Otan political party. Protests against the government have started to grow in size and scope of demands. The day before, on Constitution Day, thousands of soldiers and black-suited security officials had been brought into Almaty in anticipation of demonstrations. Protests against the government have started to grow in size and scope of demands. Samrat tells us of an activist group called Wake Up, Kazakhstan! (“Oyan Qazaqstan” in Kazakh). They campaign for the abolition of the presidency and the establishment of a parliamentary democracy. “I’m not a member, but I agree with them,” says Samrat. The group gained popularity on Instagram and is aimed at Kazakh youth. Without a leadership structure per se, Wake Up relies on a few prominent personalities, one of whom is a pop-music producer and actor who created one of the initial videos that went viral. The video shows talking heads in front of a white background imploring the viewer to consider their democratic positions. Wake Up staged a small protest on Constitution Day, holding banners that read, “Down with the Autocratic System!” But protest is still dangerous in Kazakhstan; in March, two people were arrested for encouraging others to stand up to the government. Samrat publishes his poems under the pen name Samrat the Samurai. His poem “Uzumaki Naruto” can be seen as a rewriting of Auden’s “September 1, 1939”; a depiction of the strength of the state over the individual. The “lawbook” gives the “rules”: “If you state the state’s law—you are guilty.” / “If you spit on the law—you are equal to god and the judge.” The paradox comes alive in our contemporary situation; it is clear something is not working, but our instruments for tackling the problem are blunt. Samrat walks past a venue where he has performed the poem. It sits not one hundred yards from the Soviet memorial, which sits on the political psyche and system like a goliath. Samrat takes us to the concert but doesn’t stay for the music. The concert was on a street corner not far from the State Museum and Nazarbayev Avenue. A small canopy had been erected, and that served as a stage. Hundreds of people, most of them under the age of twenty-one, were watching a young man play guitar and sing in Kazakh. We found Ruslan on the periphery of the crowd. “A few months ago this would not have been possible,” he says. “Most music in the Kazakh language was wedding music. Very traditional songs, folk songs, which were not exciting. We had some underground music but it was very underground.” The Soviets had encouraged central Asian states to maintain an ethnic identity through traditional instruments and language. The music we were seeing today was a symbiosis between the Kazakh language and international—read, on the whole, Western—musical genres. It had not been going down well with everyone in Kazakhstan. The most popular band to date that has merged Kazakh with other musical genres is Ninety-One, a mixture of K-Pop aesthetic and protest song. The most popular band to date that has merged Kazakh with other musical genres is Ninety-One, a name referring to Kazakhstan’s year of independence. They are a mixture of K-Pop aesthetic and protest song. One of their most popular songs, “Bari Biled,” uses language similar to that used by Wake Up, Kazakhstan! to encourage the audience toward political dissent. The music video uses footage from newsreels showing missile attacks and burning battleships on old TV monitors. Nooses with sunflowers sitting in the loops are hanging from the ceiling. Conservatives in Kazakhstan have criticized the group for defiling the ethnic language. Others have attacked the band for appearing too feminine or homosexual to represent true Kazakh values. One scene in the video for “Bari Biled” has “i am the character of my life. And I choose the genre” printed in English on a white wall. We walk with Ruslan away from the concert toward a bar his friend owns. The center of Almaty is organized into grids with huge boulevards running north–south and east–west through the city. It’s a warm night, and we walk slowly, talking all the time, comparing politics in the UK to Kazakhstan. Ruslan has just returned from a trip to Birmingham and Manchester in England, where he worked on a poetry project called Poetry Slog—Samrat is one of the artists involved. “Whenever I told someone I was from Kazakhstan, they wouldn’t say much apart from ‘Borat’ or ‘corruption,’” he said. Nevertheless, he likes the UK, mostly for the music. We reach his friend’s bar, which seems new and has a clientele mostly of artists and activists looking to buy craft beers and smoke rolled cigarettes. As we sit and talk, Ruslan occasionally breaks away from the conversation to quickly greet someone he knows from his work at Transforma. How did he get involved with activism and the music scene in Almaty? It was always his wish to study in St. Petersburg, so he moved there to study economics. “I was starting to discover myself there; I got interested in filmmaking.” This eventually led him to meet Katerina Suvorova, a filmmaker who has created documentaries on the Aral Sea, WikiLeaks, and the band Ninety-One. “We worked on a film about activism,” Ruslan says. Through this he met technomusicians in Almaty who were making a form of underground music he hadn’t yet been exposed to. Soon the subject for the film became the subject of all his work, and he realized he wanted not only to document but to help create this music: “So now I’m inside and working as a creative producer.” Most of his work attempts to bridge the gap between the “wedding songs,” which comprise almost the entirety of the commercial market, and new forms of musical expression. The underground scene is led by ZVUK, a collective that mixes techno and activism. At performances, partygoers have worn T-shirts with the slogan “You cannot run away from the truth” in honor of a protester arrested bearing a banner of the same message at the Almaty marathon in 2019. They organized a rave by the Aral Sea, which hosted local and European DJs. “To begin with, the people in the village close by didn’t know what was going on,” says Ruslan, “but by the end you can see them dancing and joining in.” Though Ruslan admires ZVUK and especially its founder, Nazira Kassenova—“She’s a god”—the music his acts perform is sometimes acoustic, slow, and bare compared with the driving bass of ZVUK. We finish our drinks and Ruslan invites us to dinner that night, where we can meet some of his performers. Stopping by an old Soviet supermarket to pick up wine, we take a taxi through Almaty. On the way, Ruslan explains the conflict over the Kazakh language taking place in music. “When I was in school, we didn’t care about learning Kazakh; what was important was Russian and English. All the new songs would be in Russian or English: prog-rock, electronic, hip-hop.” This meant that music in the Kazakh language stayed very traditional and as such was mainly played at weddings or family events. “Now,” continues Ruslan, “we are trying to make the Kazakh language relevant. Talk about things that matter. . . . It’s important to keep your identity alive, and we can do this through language.” “We are trying to make the Kazakh language relevant. Talk about things that matter.” The dinner was in a suburb of Almaty occupied by large Brutalist high-rises. Small pathways connect one building to its neighbor, and trees have been planted to give shade in the harsh summers. Ruslan can’t remember which building we are supposed to be going to; the last time he was here was for a birthday party, and he left so drunk he can’t retrace his steps. We circle around on the pathways in the dark before being spotted by Ruslan’s friends from their balcony. “Oh, here it is,” he says nonchalantly. We have wine and Turkish menemen with a type of bread found throughout central Asia called lepeshka, a round pita with a glazed lid that cracks when your thumb presses into it. All of them shared Ruslan’s hopes of bringing a renaissance to Kazakh music. From their phones they played songs by Ninety-One, the Smiths, and Dave Gerard and the Watchmen. Malika, a performer linked to Ruslan’s organization Qazaq Indie, performs traditional Kazakh music as part of her one-person group named Me and My Invisible Orchestra. She also writes her own songs. In the living room, Pauline and I sit on the sofa, and Malika sits cross-legged on the floor with a ukulele across her lap, two friends behind either shoulder to give vocals and accompaniment on guitar. She introduces “Á Bópem”: “It’s a children’s song, to help them go to sleep.” She speaks very softly, and you have to push your head forward to catch each word, creating an anticipated silence in the room as everyone from the dinner settles on chairs, armrests, and across the floor to listen. Malika’s voice turns forceful, each breath being pushed from the lungs and every note moving into the next without a millisecond’s pause. The song turns now strong and now almost imperceptible. At times it sounds like whispers coming from across the steppes, peaks, and canyons of the Kazakh landscape. It is like air freely forming its own cadences, each sound native to the place it is heard.

As we completed preparation for today's CXBanks2019 online webinar it became obvious during discussions with many lived experience advocates that there is much work to be done in workplaces and with employers to prevent violence against women. With one third of a working adults life spent in work, employers are in a unique position to create a supportive workplace culture that encourages the identification of health and wellbeing needs and to help tackle the silence around this issue. PwC's 2015 Report - 'A high price to pay' the economic case for preventing violence against women, estimates that violence against women costs $21.7 billion a year, with victims bearing the primary burden of this cost. Governments (national and State and Territory) bear the second biggest cost burden, estimated at $7.8 billion a year, comprising health, administration and social welfare costs. The PWC report identifies that the victim bears 31% of the costs of the violence with business only absorbing a mere 6% of the total costs and insurance 1% There appears therefore to be a disconnect in how engaged employers are working collectively to address violence against women. We know, it is often possible for those who use abusive behaviours to use workplace resources, such as phones or email, to threaten, harass or abuse current or former partners. For others, the workplace can be a safe haven and provide a route away from harm. And so there is clearly a very large role for employers to play in helping to prevent violence against women. Also, having a job can provide the economic independence that helps people overcome their ordeal and rebuild their lives. It is however important to note that employment can sometimes prevent people from leaving abusive relationships, as they may not want to go in to refuges or leave their area. Colleagues may also be affected, and face direct threats or intimidation. They may have to cover for workers who are experiencing domestic abuse. Colleagues may be aware that abuse is taking place but not know how to help. WOW proposes to develop a program for employers that will enable them to take action on domestic abuse by: Demonstrating awareness of domestic abuse and breaking the wall of silence in the workplace Supporting employees affected by domestic abuse and providing access to or information about service Providing education and support to help perpetrators of domestic abuse to stop Sharing best practice with other members of a to be established employer network The first initiative will be a real world gathering in March 2020 sharing case studies of what some employers are doing to address Domestic Abuse.

MONROE TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) — Residents across the waterlogged Northeast are clearing mud and tearing out soggy carpets after deluges dropped by Tropical Storm Henri. The smell of sewage filled the air in a New Jersey retirement community as people returned to their soaked homes and possessions Monday. The storm's remnants still threaten further flooding in New England as they made a slow trek back to the sea. Officials fret that just a few more inches would be a back-breaker following a wet summer. Henri hit Rhode Island on Sunday as a tropical storm but spared coastal areas major damage. The National Weather Service says no deaths have been attributed to Henri.

NOTTOWAY COUNTY, Va. — Nottoway County is the kind of place where everyone knows their neighbor, and for years crime has been virtually nonexistent. "Most people didn't lock their doors," explained Jeff LaVelle, who has lived in Nottoway most of his life. "Our doors at our house was always open. It's always been quiet, until recently." LaVelle's home is located off of Bible Road, which is just outside the Town of Crewe. "The Sheriff's Department has been out here more times in the last six months than in the last 30 years," he said. Since Jan.1, Nottoway County Sheriff's deputies have been called out to this stretch of road more than 80 times. "Everybody's carrying a gun," LaVelle noted. "People are that scared?" asked CBS 6 Reporter Caroline Coleburn. "Yes," said LaVelle. There are only about 40 houses on Bible Road. One of them is the home of LaVelle's parents. "They are afraid to leave house," he explained. "That's not how you're supposed to live." LaVelle said the house next door to his parent's house has been broken into twice this year. "You're paranoid, you're worried, you know, am I going to get hit next?" said another Bible Road resident, who wanted to remain anonymous. The Nottoway County Sheriff's Office is on track to double the number of arrests made for breaking and entering and stolen items this year, with 47 people charged in the first half of 2022. That's compared to 57 all of last year. "The community is concerned," Nottoway Sheriff Robert Jones shared. On Bible Road alone, Jones said his 14 deputies have responded to two breaking and entering calls, a trespassing call, two larceny reports and more than 23 reports of suspicious activity. "There's been a lot of strange incidents out there," said Jones. "We've had people that steal wheelbarrows, put stuff in wheelbarrows and then they're walking down the road with the wheelbarrow." Residents and county leaders believe one thing is responsible for this spike in crime. "The drug usage, the meth, it's slowly coming," Jones noted. "It's not a big city problem anymore." Police have been called to one specific home on Bible Road several times this year for reports of suspicious activity and overdoses. "We used to get calls out there almost every day for a while," the Sheriff explained. The strange incidents, like a woman trespassing at 3 a.m. coupled with the break-ins and theft, have caused Bible Road neighbors to create their own social media group to alert residents about crime. "The group is growing bigger and stronger, and we don't miss a beat," said a woman who helps lead the group. They report everything they see in their online chat to police and county leaders. "We the people of Bible Road are taking a stand, you know, we're having a voice," she noted. "And we want something done." Nottoway County Supervisor John Roark is working with Bible Road residents to help put a stop to the crime. "The phone calls that I typically get, none of them are pleasant," said Roark. "One violent crime in Nottoway is one too many." One of the steps Roark said he's taken to protect citizens is increasing the county budget to add another dispatcher because the county currently only has one on shift at a time. "The emergency services since I've been here has been strained," Roark expressed That strain was put on display back in May, during the police pursuit of Noah Lee Price of Amelia, who was on the run in Nottoway and surrounding counties for more than 24 hours, accused of stealing vehicles, breaking into homes and shooting at police. At the time, Roark said the county had only one dispatcher behind the desk. "Do you think that car accidents, do you think that medical calls stopped because something like that is going on?" he said. "It doesn't." But Roark expressed that an extra body isn't the only solution needed. He believes the county is suffering from a lack of resources to fight the drug use that citizens and police believe is causing crime. "The war on meth is going to be won in rural Virginia," said Roark. "And those resources need to come to rural Virginia. You need specific counseling and treatment, and we don't have enough of it. And we need to focus on those problems." As for Jeff LaVelle, he's come to terms with the fact that his doors may need to remain locked and his security cameras on for some time. "A lot of the people in the group say or in the neighborhoods say that they want our quiet or quiet community back," he explained. "I don't think you're gonna get it back. I just think this is how it's gonna be. Those days are gone." Meanwhile, Roark said he’s working on a plan to create an ordinance to clean up run-down properties that he believes are causing problems, and he also wants to establish more tools for law enforcement to fight crime.

This tutorial show how to Convert text to date in Excel using the example below. To convert text in an unrecognized date format to a proper Excel date, you can parse the text and assemble a proper date with a formula based on several functions: DATE, LEFT, MID, and RIGHT. Note: Before you go the formula route, see below for other ways you might be able to get Excel to recognize text as dates without formulas. Explanation of how this formula works In the example shown, the formula in C6 is: This formula extract the year, month, and day values separately, and uses the DATE function to assemble them into the date October 24, 2000. When you’re working with data from another system, you might run into text values that represent dates, but are not understood as dates in Excel. For example, you might have text values like this: |20001024||October 24, 2000| |20050701||July 1, 20115| |19980424||April 24, 1998| |28.02.2014||February 28, 2014| Excel won’t recognize these text values as a date, so in order to create a proper date, you’ll need parse the text into it’s components (year, month, day) and use these to make a date with the DATE function. The DATE function takes three arguments: year, month, and day. The LEFT function extracts the leftmost 4 characters and supplies this to DATE as the year. The MID function extracts characters 5-6 and supplies this to DATE as the month, and the RIGHT function extracts the rightmost 2 characters and supplies these to DATE as the day. The final result is a proper Excel date that can be formatted any way you like. In row 8, the (unrecognized) date format is dd.mm.yyyy and the formula in C8 is: Text to columns to fix dates Another way to get Excel to recognize dates is to use the Text to Columns Feature: Select the column of dates, then try Data > Text to columns > Fixed > finish This can sometimes fix everything at once. Add zero to fix dates Sometimes, you’ll encounter dates in a text format that Excel should recognize. In this case, you might be able to force Excel to convert the text values into dates by adding zero to the value. When you add zero, Excel will try to coerce text values to numbers. Since dates are just numbers, this trick is a great way to convert dates in text format that Excel really should understand. To convert dates in place by adding zero, try Paste Special: - Add a zero to an unused cell and copy to the clipboard - Select the problematic dates - Paste Special > Values > Add To convert dates by adding zero in a formula, use: where A1 contains an unrecognized date.

The YART Yamaha team started the weekend by ending Thursday’s Free Practice in second before securing a third consecutive pole position at the iconic Bugatti Circuit in North-West France on Friday. Glorious weather greeted the riders for the entirety of the 24-hour race, as the passionate French fans returned to Le Mans for the first time since 2019 due to the global COVID-19 Pandemic. Czech rider Karel Hanika, who celebrated his 26th birthday on Thursday, lined up for the traditional endurance starting procedure, but an unfortunate technical issue meant he could not get his bike going on the grid and dropped down to last place. Confounding this issue was a nasty crash at the start that saw the safety car deployed immediately, meaning that Hanika could not begin a charge through the pack until racing resumed after eight laps. Undeterred, the former Moto3 rider started to battle his way through the crowded field and by the end of the first hour, he handed the YART Yamaha R1 over to his teammate Marvin Fritz in fifth. The German rider kept this momentum going with some superb riding, and by the end of his first stint, the team were up to third. Italian Niccolo Canepa took the next stint, and by the time he came in to swap the bike, the team had clawed back an impressive amount of time and were up to second and involved in the battle for victory, just 15 seconds behind the leaders. Sadly, more drama was to follow, as, in the EWC, two safety cars feature for each incident. On Hanika’s second stint, he was stuck behind a different safety car than the leaders, losing 45 precious seconds. Once again, adversity brought out the true character of the YART Yamaha team, as all three riders got their heads down and applied themselves in their efforts to hunt down the race leaders. What followed was an intriguing endurance battle, with two teams using different tactics in an attempt to emerge victorious. The YART Yamaha team had the pace, but their rivals appeared to be able to make the Bridgestone tyres last longer. For the rest of the race, a fascinating pit-stop cat and mouse game ensued, with all three of the YART Yamaha riders setting an incredible pace throughout the night and on Sunday morning to give the team a chance of victory. They continued to reduce the deficit to the leaders during every stint, only to see them open a one-lap gap again after each round of pit stops. The team responded by giving it everything, not placing a wheel off track during the entire 24 hours and maintaining an impressive pace throughout, with all three riders pushing to the limit. As the hours passed, the race looked like it would go down to the wire. YART continued to pressure their rivals to force them into a mistake. With just 25 minutes remaining on the clock, Canepa returned to the pits for a “splash and dash” strategy and handed the reigns of the R1 to Hanika to set up a dramatic finish. Unfortunately, a crash almost immediately after the team’s stop saw the safety car deployed and while racing would resume with a couple of minutes on the clock, that was how things would finish, with the team completing 840 laps in second place, 1:45.582s behind the winner and securing their first podium at Le Mans since the 2016-2017 season. It was an excellent start to the championship and the team managed to secure 55 points from the race and qualifying, leaving them only eight points behind the leaders with three more races left on the calendar, two of which are 24-hour races. There was more joy for Yamaha as the Team 18 Sapeus Pompiers CMS Motostore of Hugo Clare, Baptiste Guittet, and Phillip Steinmayr claimed the Dunlop Superstock Trophy victory after finishing fourth overall. The Maco Racing Team of Anthony West, Enzo Boulom, and Richard Bodis fought valiantly despite several issues to finish the race in 32nd. At the same time, the Viltais Racing Igol team, made up of Florian Alt, Erwan Nigon, and Steven Odendaal was looking on course for a podium until disaster struck. A technical fault saw them forced to retire from the race in hour 19. Team Moto Ain’s British rider Bradley Smith got hit from behind during the crash at the start of the race and was taken to hospital for further checks before the team withdrew from the race during the third hour. There were also retirements for the Wojcik Racing Team after 14 hours due to a crash, and the 3ART Best of Bike team as the demanding Bugatti Circuit took no prisoners over the 24 hours. Up next on the 2022 FIM Endurance World Championship calendar is the Spa EWC Motos at the legendary Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium on the 2nd-5th of June.
