The questions we have about life after death—Is there a heaven? Am I good enough? What if I’m not?—can leave us wondering. But that doesn’t mean we have to live in fear. Discover why our ideas of life after death could change everything in One Minute After You Die, a three-part message series. In this series, we’ll be reminded that calling isn’t as much about “what” as it is “who.” In order to discover God’s true calling on our lives, we need to focus less on what we’re doing and more on what we’re becoming: fully devoted followers of Christ. Our Summer Guest Speakers will bring two amazing messages. We'll start with the question we all ask: "Is my salvation real?" Then, we'll follow that up with a look at God's amazing love for us through the refiner's fire. Have you ever had a question so hard you wouldn’t even say it out loud? Or a doubt so big you didn’t feel like you could share it—especially at church? Maybe it’s time to ask the tough questions together in our new series, Ever Wonder Why?

Show saddle are some of the most beautiful Western saddle out there. These saddles are designed specifically for use in the show ring and aren’t meant to be used for everyday riding. These saddles feature silver trim and detailed leather tooling, giving them a fancy appearance. The skirt on a show saddle tends to be deeper than usual, giving more room for tooling and silver accents. The cantle is low for easy mounting and dismounting, and the seat is balanced to put the rider into a proper equitation position. What to look for in a show saddles? When buying a new saddle, be sure to familiarize yourself with the latest show ring trends. Buying a used saddle usually isn’t advisable, because styles and features quickly go out of date. And while show saddles are all about catching a judge’s attention, you need to be cautious of buying a saddle that is just too over the top in terms of décor. This could negatively affect your placing and looks distasteful in the show ring. Keep your horse’s coat color in mind when you shop for a show saddle. You will need to choose a saddle which complements your horse’s coat. And, of course, you should carefully coordinate your outfit and saddle blanket colors. In addition to its appearance, a show saddle needs to be a good fit for you and your horse. The saddle should place you in a balanced position, and your leg should naturally align with the stirrup. A quality show saddle will leave you feeling secure and comfortable so you can put in your very best performance.

By Administrator_ India Aiming at a stiff vaccination target, the government has booked 30 crore doses of Hyderabad-based Biological-E’s Covid vaccine, which is still in clinical trials. The Health Ministry will make an advance payment of ₹ 1,500 crores to the company for what will be the second made-in-India vaccine to be used in the country after Bharat Biotech’s Covaxin. The doses will be manufactured and stockpiled by Biological-E from August to December and is likely to be available “in the next few months”, says the ministry. Biological-E’s vaccine is currently in Phase-3 clinical trials after showing promising results in Phase 1 and 2, said the government in a statement. Besides Covaxin and Serum Institute of India’s Covishield, Russia’s Sputnik V will soon be used to vaccinate people as the government races towards a target of one crore vaccinations a day by August. It is also in talks with foreign makers like Pfizer and Moderna, who have insisted on an indemnity clause. The new vaccine arrangement is “part of the wider endeavor of the government to encourage indigenous vaccine manufacturers” by providing them support in research and development and costs, the Centre said. The government said Biological-E’s shot was given ₹ 100 crores in financial assistance by the Department of Biotechnology, which also partnered with the company to conduct various studies. This is part of the government’s mission to support five or six new COVID-19 vaccine candidates, said the statement.

Tunics for Men and Women I´ve been wanting to get family pictures for a while now, and last week we finally got them done! Of course, since professional family photos are a rarity for my family, I had to include Hovden Wear shirts and tunics, and I love the way they turned out. When deciding what my husband and I should wear, there were a few surprises. My husband, for one, decided he wanted to wear the black tunic. I´ve had men ask about the tunics before, but I hadn't seen one on a man. I must say, I think my hubby looked pretty good. He also pointed out that the vikings would have worn tunics, so there is no reason why he or any man should not wear one now. I chose the red tunic. I have always loved red and think it looks good with my blue eyes and light hair. To mix it up a bit, I put the kids in white and blue. We have a red busserull in kid sizes too. Hope you enjoy the pics as much as we do!

HP2Online has a unique history. We started working in the world of athletic performance and brought lessons learned there to the military. From there we moved into the business world and now on to you! Our unique history will enable your new future! We come from the world of performance. HP2 was started in the early 80's and our initial mission was simple. We worked exclusively with athletes to isolate and reproduce in them the elements that enabled consistent winning performance. Initial success with individual performers took us to the world of teams and we expanded our work to include new practices of enhancing team performance. We had the opportunity to work with and generate success with a number of teams of all sizes and types - amateur, Olympic, and professional. This success caught the attention of the military and we designed and delivered a series of programs for the Army, Army Special Forces, and Marines. In each case we enabled high performing individuals and units to exceed their historical best performances. In the late 80's we turned our attention to the corporate world and brought the same level of rigor to this new world that we brought to the arenas and playing fields. What we saw was that as the world continued to change dramatically, the traditional approaches to business leadership, management, and learning were increasingly ineffective. It took us some time and a lot of experimentation until we succeeded in crafting a coherent body of work that consistently produces new levels of performance, innovation, and satisfaction. Central to everything is the understanding that in today's world ‘work’ is no longer about manual labor, tedious factory jobs, or endless grey cube farms. It is the making and fulfilling of commitments. Therefore management must be oriented around practices that enable the effective coordination required to produce internal and external customer satisfaction. From our work with athletes and soldiers we knew what it took to produce effective coordination, as in those worlds the results speak for themselves. Our challenge was to make these same practices relevant and applicable to the corporate world. Thus was born Commitment Based Management. This new work on management has begun to make its way into the business mainstream and over the years we have had the opportunity to work with some of the greatest companies in the world. Firms like AT&T, Intel, Microsoft, CapitalOne, Amgen, Allianz, Nike and a host of others have entrusted our team with helping them shape their futures. With each of these clients we worked with their top leaders and managers to shape new futures and open new worlds. What has all of that got to do with you? Nothing and everything at the same time. We are not working with you to be managers and leaders or to enhance your athletic performance or the performance of your military unit. Any or all of that may well occur, and it isn't our goal. Our goal is help you live the life of your dreams and we are going to do that by sharing with you all of the methods and practices that have been effective in transforming the lives and careers of thousands of athletes, soldiers, and corporate leaders and managers - people just like you! You are the beneficiary of all of these years of work, experimentation, and success. We now know with certainty what it takes to produce and sustain an authentic transformation. How do we know? Because we have been doing it for 30 years! Along the way we have been innovators in the the practices and methodology of transformation and now bring to you an established, tested, proven body of work that is designed for just one purpose. To enable you to life the life of your dreams! Chris Majer is the founder and CEO of the Human Potential Project Online (HP2Online) and the designer of all of our programs. He is a modern day entrepreneur, innovator, and adventurer who has trekked the wilds of Africa, Alaska, and the Amazon. He is a Rugby player with a Master Degree who has taught hand-to-hand combat to Marines, performance principles to the Special Forces, and leadership, management, strategy and innovation to the corporate world. Chris’ work evolved out of his early days as a competitive rugby player. In 1981 he began by working exclusively with athletes to isolate and reproduce the elements of consistent winning performance. His success with individual athletes and teams caught the attention of the military and he and his firm spent nearly three years working with the Army to design new ways of training soldiers. This work culminated in a year long classified project with the Army’s Special Forces. In the mid 80s the firm began working with corporate clients, again generating remarkable results. Under Chris’ leadership, the firm grew into a skilled team of professionals working globally. Chris was the principal architect of transformational projects for corporate clients such as AT&T, Cargill, Microsoft, Intel, EDS, Capital One, Amgen, and Allianz Life of North America. Chris has spent over two decades developing innovative and highly effective approaches for enabling individuals and organizations of any size to maximize their performance. Now he has distilled all of this experience into a series of programs for a select consumer audience. He is the author of 20 white papers and The Power to Transform – Passion, Power, and Purpose in Daily Life, which was published by Rodale. Chris earned a MPA in Organizational Development from the University of Washington. He also studied extensively with philosopher Dr. Fernando Flores, known for his work on the ontology of language. In addition he has been an Aikido student and spent time with various martial arts teachers, Buddhist Monks, Zen Masters and a host of other practitioners. He has been featured in Time, People, Mens Health, and Esquire and has appeared on the Today Show, Charlie Rose, and the MacNeil/Lehrer Report. Chris has also been a keynote speaker at venues around the world.

An Exclusive Interview with J.G. Ballard J.G. Ballard Interview by John Hughes The following interview with J.G. Ballard took place in the spring of 1996. It was recorded on to micro-cassette off speakerphone on a 6 a.m. call from the 4AD Records office in Los Angeles, CA to J.G. Ballard at his home in Shepperton, England. The tapes were transcribed in New York in 2005. I contacted J.G. Ballard through a friend at Zone books. Zone had recently published a Ballard essay; an experimental dictionary of words for the future. I got his home number and called him to set up the interview below. The original plan was to discuss Rushing to Paradise. The interview opens, however, with the revelation that David Cronenberg was planning to release Crash at the Cannes Film Festival, summer’96. In that respect, the interview has two parts. The first addresses the Crash movie release and the second, Rushing to Paradise. J.G.B: Are you in a deserted office somewhere off Wilshire Blvd? J.H: I’m right off of Melrose. That’s where our office is in West Hollywood. J.G.B: Who do you work for normally? J.H: 4AD records, which is London-based, but we opened an office here. J.G.B: Sounds rather nice. J.H: I’ve been working on their internet site. J.G.B: Oh god, don’t ask me about PCs, the internet, the world-wide web; I know nothing about any of that. J.H: You don’t like it? J..G.B: Oh no, I’m just totally ignorant. But anyway, carry on. J.H: I wanted to talk with you about your last novel Rushing to Paradise J.G.B: What peg are you hanging this interview on, as it were? J.H: The book? J.G.B: The nearest thing to a topical peg would be the upcoming David Cronenberg film of my novel Crash. It’s finished shooting and he’s now editing the film and I think they’re hoping to get a print ready for Cannes, and that is in May, and I would imagine that they’re going to need to recoup their investment as soon as possible. They would release the film sometime this summer I imagine. So that’s a sort of topical peg. So anyway, carry on. J.H: Can I ask you some questions about that? J.G.B: Go ahead. J.H: Have you seen the film? J.G.B: The film, Cronenberg’s Crash, was filmed in Toronto between September and December of last year, so I haven’t seen any of it. I’ve talked to Cronenberg on the telephone, halfway through shooting, and he said everything was going extremely well. He was very happy with everything. J.H: Did he present a treatment to you? J.G.B: I saw the script, and he seemed to do a script that was very faithful to the book. The only input he needed was the book. Filmmakers regard authors with a rather wary eye. They can be an infernal nuisance, because they’ve got their own novelistic notions of how films should be made and that is not the way films really are made. Anyway, Cronenberg is a brilliant filmmaker. He’s written, I think, most of the scripts if not all the scripts for his own films over the years. I’ve got total 100% confidence in him. J.H: Do you have a favorite Cronenberg film? J.G.B: I was very impressed by Scanners, which I think was one of the first I ever saw. The last one I saw was The Fly, which I thought a very, very powerful film. It is far superior to its original, which is not often the case with remakes. His version of The Fly is a great mythic film that has enormous resonance, and it’s, you know, a very impressive piece of work. There’s no doubt about that. I mean, Videodrome impressed me a lot. I liked his early films very much because they’re so fresh. They’re original. J.H: Is it cast? Can you talk about it? J.G.B: Oh yes, that’s not a secret. The stars are Holly Hunter and Rosanna Arquette and James Spader playing me. I forget the names of the others. Apparently it’s all gone very well. To be honest, I wanted Spader and Holly Hunter is tremendous. J.H: When did Cronenberg start work? J.G.B: I think he started working on the script about 18 months ago, a year and a half-ago, in the summer of ’94, roughly speaking, I’m not absolutely sure. They started shooting in September of ’95. I’m very much looking forward to it. J.H. Me too! * * * J.H: Okay. How much of Rushing to Paradise do you see as social satire? J.G.B: Absolutely. I think in part it’s a satire on, you know, single-issue fanatics, whether they’re out of the extremist feminist wing or the extremist edge of the green, ecological movement. There’s also a certain amount of satire on the mass media, because the mass media – newspapers and television and magazines are so intimately involved with the extremist fringes of these movements. And they are the lifeblood of these groups. Without publicity they’re nothing. A large part of the activity of many of these ecological movements is designed to generate favorable publicity. As soon as the cameras are switched off they go home. So to some extent it was a satire, but the book itself tries to study the psychology of these single-issue fanatics. In a way, it’s a new kind of fanaticism that’s come up over the last twenty years. It’s difficult to deal with because these people are not obliged to make the sort of compromises that people in mainstream politics have to make because inevitably all political parties – I’m sure this is as true of America as it is of Europe – all political parties are coalitioned, usually with quite divergent and different interests, so the main, the lifeblood of those mainstream political parties is compromise. So when you get to these single-issue groups no compromise is necessary – they don’t even need to compromise with reality. They’ve got it in their head. They’re going to save the smallpox virus and in order to save, let’s say, the small pox virus, they’re prepared to make any sacrifices because that is the main ambition of these single-issue fanatics. He or she wants to be able to reach the most extreme position possible. That’s what provides the psychological satisfaction – you ride out on the cliff edge with ten pounds of dynamite on your chest, watching below. You can’t argue with these people. J.H: Do you see this as a symptom of something wrong in contemporary society? You mentioned that it’s had not happened in the past. J.G.B: I don’t think it has. If you take fanatics like Adolph Hitler or Poll Pott in Cambodia or Khadafi in Libya, these people all have quite large social and political agendas, whether you disapprove of them or not. In all three cases I strongly disapprove of everything they stood for. They have large agendas. Now, the single-issue fanatic doesn’t have a large agenda. He refuses all argument. Now what I’m interested in is what’s the psychology underpinning these people? What is it that drives a Revered Jim Jones? What is it that drives the people in Waco, Texas? What is it that drove the Manson gang? There’s a strain. What is it that drives these presidential assassins like Oswald, and the man who killed Kennedy’s brother? What is it that propels these people? They’re very mysterious. Oswald for example left quite a large body of writing, but it’s very difficult to extricate any kind of sense from his life. And that’s true of all these people. Now, what is it? What are their secret agendas? Kind of a long story short, if you take Dr. Barbara Rafferty, the heroine of Rushing to Paradise – she obviously has one. Her secret agenda is death. She kept on wanting to protect life in all its forms. But that of course isn’t what she really is interested in. It’s death she’s interested in. J.H: Why do you suppose that is? She was elusive to me at times…. J.G.B: Partly that’s because she’s partly based on Margaret Thatcher, the former British prime minister, her similar sort of obsessive self-confidence guising all kinds of secret agendas. If you think she’s elusive, I’m surprised you think that because it’s pretty clear what she’s up to by the end. The author’s attitude towards her is so highly ambiguous. He, the author, me, clearly rather likes her and rather approves of her, as does the young hero Neil Dempsey. J.H: She was ultimately driven to kill her followers. What did she blame them for? J.G.B: What someone like Barbara Rafferty, and this is true in real life, they keep needing to up the anti, to raise the stakes. The extreme hypothesis is never satisfying itself. They’ve always got to go one step further; otherwise they’re terrified of sinking into banality and the mundane. Barbara Rafferty is constantly upping the stakes, constantly testing herself and everyone around her to the limit. Now, this is the whole point. There is no agenda strictly speaking. She’s the person we all meet in ordinary life now and then who just needs to push out always one step ahead of everyone else, and will go to any lengths in order to achieve that — that position of heroic, Nietzschean isolation; who needs to challenge the heavens; who needs to steal fire. These extremists – if you gave them everything they want they wouldn’t be satisfied. That’s why they’re so dangerous. Often they tap, of course, into the psychology of their followers because many of their followers are piqued by the same sort of wish for death, of their own death. We saw that clearly during the closing years of the Second World War when millions of Germans were prepared to die with their furor. J.H: I have a friend who studied German history. He mentioned that the rise and fall was book-ended by a massive number of suicides — intellectuals at the start and Nazis at the end. J.G.B: Absolutely, absolutely. In a way it’s what they wanted. Part of Hitler’s great appeal was that what he promised, the subtext he promised, from the 1920s and certainly through the ‘30s when he gained power. He promised death. If you look at the whole history of the Nazi regime from 1933 until the bunker in 1945, it’s one vast funeral pageant played out in advance of itself. It’s a huge program for death. Even though their country faced total annihilation by the Russians from 1943 onward, nobody seriously thought of some sort of political solution to the problem which would end the fighting. They wanted death and disaster. Hitler promised this from a very early stage in his political career, and they knew this unconsciously or half-consciously, and they willingly followed him. Now, these single-issue fanatics like Barbara Rafferty tap into deep psychological needs for self-destruction, or the like, in their followers. They’re very dangerous. Look at the Reverend Jim Jones with 300 or more people who committed suicide quite willingly. These cults are suicide missions. J.H: In a RESearch interview, you stated that people generally miss the idealism in your work. Here idealism fails completely. How does that work? J.G.B: Barbara Rafferty is very different from many of the other characters in my novels, my early novels in particular. They’re on the whole rather lonely heroes who set out to construct a sort of mythology for themselves and then follow…inaudible…they’re also selling a sort of psychological dream that they pursue until the absolute end. They’re highly idealistic, the main characters in novels like The Drowned World and Crystal World, and even later ones like The Unlimited Dream Company, even the narrator, Ballard in Crash is pursuing – the hoodlum scientist in Crash – they’re all pursuing, what is in their case a sort of perverted dream. But most of the other characters and in a lot of my short stories too, are fulfilling these sort of mythic – they’re setting out on these mythic quests, in which they want to make sense of the world. If you take a book like The Atrocity Exhibition, I don’t know if you’ve had a look at that, that is filled with, it’s basically the same character, Tavern, who is a kind of psychiatrist having a mental breakdown, who casts himself in the role of H-bomber pilot, presidential assassin, etc… in these private psycho dramas that he’s staging in order to make sense of the great tragedies of the world. Many of these books of mine are just saturated with this idealistic quest that leads the characters on. The most extreme example of that is The Atrocity Exhibition where reality, in the traditional sense of the everyday world of work and the rest of it has been completely invaded by the mass media who have wrapped themselves around everything on this planet and redefined reality as themselves. Above all television has done that. Reality is what T.V defines as reality, and it involves almost every aspect of our daily lives. We can scarcely call anything our own today, even in our own homes with furnishings and the way we decorate our homes, which foods we eat, our recreational habits, the way we present ourselves to our friends as a little everyday packaging exercise, not to mention everything that fills our heads – it has all been supplied to us by the mass media – television, advertisers, and the like. The great myths of the age, the death of Marilyn Monroe and Kennedy, the weird careers of people like Michael Jackson and various others – the whole mythology of our age is generated by the mass media and it’s almost impossible to escape that. J.H: You know of Jean Baudrillard’s Simulations? J.G.B: Oh, yes of course. I love his book on America though I don’t suppose any American does. He wrote a very complimentary essay on Crash as it were, though I find it difficult to understand a single word. I vaguely got it straight. His whole view of the simulacrum, the copy that has no original – we’re living in a largely fictional, in fact in an enormous novel. I’ve often said nowadays the only mode of reality is inside our own head. That’s all we’ve got. – our own obsessions, our own particular bias on the world. J.H: How do you think people cope? J.G.B: You’ve seen what it’s done over the past twenty years. There’s been a withdrawal from this media-dominated world. You saw it in the career of the Beatles even, the way they withdrew into the Maharishi and the meditation. Lennon ended up living inside a bag with Yoko, trying to return to the womb. The whole drug culture is an attempt to enjoy through drugs some kind of unique experience of one’s self, rather than have imposed on one the mass images of the mass media. Not just drugs, but sex too is an area in which one can find that residual self that is free — the free self that exists where the central nervous system in our bodies are not ensnared by the mass media. Withdrawal into the interior is quite evident. Home is the main place of entertainment nowadays. America is different, but here we don’t go to the movies we rent videos and watch them alone. We withdraw from the social and this retreat, which takes various forms, is part of a search for the unique self. It’s one way of fighting back. J.H: You’re not as pessimistic as Baudrillard? J.B.G: I’m not as pessimistic, no, I’m not. Baudrillard’s conclusions are that the game is up. J.H: You don’t think his vision is inevitable? J.G.B: No, I think people have a knack of fighting back. I mean quite ordinary people. Over here, and I imagine it’s true of the states too, there’s a kind of post-T.V generation of people who don’t watch television because it’s a contaminated medium that insinuates itself into every aspect of one’s mind. People don’t go to the movies for the same reason. They try to cultivate their own gardens, quite literally, being a great nation of gardeners. But also they pursue hobbies to an enormous, professional level. Someone will build a boat inside of his garage, learning craft skills that no member of his family has had for many generations, and taking great pride in that sort of thing. I don’t know whether the personal computer, the modem, the internet are a positive or negative force in that respect. I don’t know whether that’s another form of ensnarement, or whether it’s a form of individual freedom. J.H: What impact do you think your writing will have in the future? J.G.B: I think it’s a mistake for any writer to start thinking about posterity. Posterity almost certainly won’t think about you. I never think in those terms. We’re going through a time of tremendous change. I know this sort of doom saying comes up every five or ten years, but it may be that the last generation is giving way to a new generation that reads the text in C.D Rom form. It reads the internet entries, but it’s basically a visual and digitalized sensibility. I don’t believe reading fiction will die out, but it may have a much more specialized role than it has now. The novel may in the future occupy the sort of place that poetry occupies today. It’s still read. It’s still published. It still helps partly to shape people’s minds, but for a minority interest. It may be read in the future but perhaps only for a few years and then stop. There may be people who don’t need that huge body of work. They won’t need to experience that huge body of novels and poetry that constitutes the whole of Western literature first hand. Perhaps only a small part, a very small part, will satisfy them. It’s hard to tell. Writing and reading a novel is a unique experience. There’s nothing like it anywhere else because it’s one-to-one. You’re actually, when you read a novel, you’re inside the writer’s head. It’s nothing like watching a movie or a T.V program. It’s nothing like looking at a painting. J.H: Its intimate. J.G.B: Yes. It’s a deeply interiorized experience, and that’s probably why it will survive. But one never knows how many deeply interiorized experiences people will need in the future – it’s impossible to predict. J.H: What interests you as a writer now? J.G.B: Um, well I just follow my obsessions and always have done. I don’t have any grand strategy. I go where my imagination seems to lead me. Well I finished another novel (Cocaine Nights) which I hope will be published in the states in due course. It’s slightly reminiscent of Rushing to Paradise. I think it’s a study of the sort of social necessity for crime – preposterous – but it’s a sort of psycho-, part of my ongoing study about the psychology of everyday life and what really underpins it that I’ve been involved with for the whole of my career, on and off. I don’t know where I go now. J.H: I just got a book called A Compendium of Psycho-Physiological Investigations. J.G.B: I was sent this book, and in fact I’ve read it. It’s an Amok book, J.H: What do you think? J.G.B: They sent it to me about three or four weeks ago. I don’t think I read every word, but it was extraordinary. I mean, I’m always rather nervous about some of the Amok people’s obsessions because they seem too – J.G.B: Yes, in a sense. To give due credit to that particular volume, I mean, they’re mostly articles from scientific journals – but I agree with you. Put together with all those lurid and weird photos. They’re sort of police forensic photos. No, I think, seriously I saw a film the other night, I went to the, you know, to the theater and saw a film called Seven. I don’t know if you’ve seen it or heard of it. It’s about a serial, the investigation of a serial killer by a black detective who cracks the case because he’s an extremely literate man, who uses – the detective uses, his familiarity with great English and American writers and poets, to sort of decode the killer’s obsessions, in his case the seven deadly sins. Some of the forensic detail is straight out of the pages of those Amok catalogs and the like, so I mustn’t be too damning, but I think, you know I’ve never had a sort of taste for gratuitous violence that people think I have. People think I’m obsessed with cars. I’m not in the least interested in cars. J.H: My last question. Have you seen the artist Rebecca Horn’s work? J.G.B: I have actually! There was a very big exhibition – I met her – at the exhibition. There was a big exhibition; I don’t know whether it traveled on to America, all of her work at the Tate Gallery. It’s equivalent to the Museum of Modern Art, and she had this very big exhibition of these poetic machines. I was very touched by that. I met her at the exhibition and we got on very well because she knew my stuff and I loved her. So much installation art which is a real, it’s flooding the galleries. All this concept and installation art is…A.) a lot of it is badly made and B.) it doesn’t touch the imagination. I thought Rebecca Horn’s stuff is exquisitely made with that sort of German craftsmanship, and it partly touches the imagination. I mean, there are machines trying to turn themselves into birds. Not everything, but at its best, is strange…have you seen an exhibition or her work? There is a very high level of craftsmanship. A high degree of skill has gone into making them. They’re very touching. J.H: Okay, well those were all my questions. Thank you. J.G.B: Pleasure talking to you. J.H: You too. J.G.B: Bye there.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand joined a call to create a $2 billion fund for Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) that would automatically provide funding to heavily impacted communities during a natural disaster or economic crisis, including a pandemic. Under the proposed legislation, the CDFI Crisis Fund would be triggered by a national or state-wide crisis and would serve as a complement to the general CDFI Fund to give communities immediate support to recover. Like FEMA’s Disaster Relief Fund, the CDFI Crisis Fund will be refilled as funds are deployed each year. Low-income, rural and other underserved communities, as well as communities of color have been especially hard hit by the multiple coronavirus crises and CDFIs are well positioned to help these communities recover. “Unfortunately, the economic crisis caused by this pandemic has devastated underserved communities and small businesses that were already struggling to survive. Now these economies are in urgent need of assistance,” said Senator Gillibrand. “Strengthening the CDFI fund and creating the CDFI Crisis Fund will quickly deliver critical funding to low-income, rural and minority communities. I’m proud to support this legislation that will jumpstart local economies and help revive neighborhoods across New York.” CDFIs offer flexible financial products and services, advising, and other wrap-around services to individual and small business borrowers. Due to their integration into their communities, they are more likely than mainstream financial institutions to provide financial services to underserved communities, which often experience lowered credit scores and increased debt collections, bankruptcies, credit card debt, and mortgage delinquencies and foreclosures when natural disasters occur. In 2019, 75% of CDFI lending went to low-income populations, 20% of total lending went to rural areas, and 19% went to persistent poverty areas. In addition to calling for the establishment of the CDFI Crisis Fund, Senator Gillibrand has also pushed for an additional $1 billion for the CDFI Fund under the Coronavirus CDFI Funding Act to inject resources and spur economic growth and opportunity in communities throughout New York’s that have been distressed by the pandemic. The CDFI Fund is well established to support small businesses, create jobs, and provide mortgage credit, small business loans, and banking services to those who need it the most.

It is said that while bottoms are events, but tops are processes. Translated, markets bottom out when panic sets in, and therefore they can be more easily identifiable. By contrast, market tops form when a series of conditions come together, but not necessarily all at the same time. I have stated that while I don’t believe that the stock market has made its final cyclical top, we are in the late stages of a bull market (see Risks are rising, but THE TOP is still ahead and Nearing the terminal phase of this equity bull). Nevertheless, psychology is getting a little frothy, which represent the pre-condition for a major top. As a result, this is another post in an occasional series of lists of “things you don’t see at market bottoms”. This week, I focus on more signs of retail giddiness. - The TD-Ameritrade Investor Movement Index hits an all-time high - E-Trade parties like it`s 1999 - If the market is chasing yield, corporations can get away with murder TD-Ameritrade IMX at ATH The TD-Ameritrade Investor Movement Index measures the sentiment of the firm’s customers.

Climate Change - Energy Efficiency 2016 – Hubbell Inc. RESOLVED: Shareholders request that the Board of Directors of Hubbell Incorporated set public goals to increase company-wide energy productivity. A summary report on programs, metrics and progress in meeting these goals should be prepared at reasonable cost; omit proprietary information; and be made available to shareholders by October 2016. WHEREAS: Our company has stated a strategic priority is “operating with discipline” with a specific focus on “improving the utilization of our manufacturing assets.” This proposal supports that aim. Investments in energy efficiency are an attractive way to manage volatile energy costs, can enhance a company’s reputation as a corporate citizen, and are usually profitable and low-risk. A 2008 McKinsey report, How the World Should Invest in Energy Efficiency, estimated that $170 billion could be invested in energy efficiency with an average internal rate of return of 17%. The report estimated that by 2020, these energy efficiency investments could produce over five times their cost in annual energy savings. A 2013 report by CDP found that four out of five companies earn a higher return on carbon reduction investments than on their overall corporate capital expenditures. Research by ClimateWorks Australia published in 2015 demonstrates the financial benefits of energy productivity, estimating potential annual improvements in company earnings (before interest and taxes) of 2-10% for companies that lag the farthest behind their sector peers on energy productivity. The study looked at companies around the globe, including North America. Hubbell customers and competitors have recognized the value of energy efficiency. · ABB has set a public target of realizing a 20 percent reduction in energy intensity between 2013 and 2020. · Eaton achieved ahead of schedule its 2016 target of a 25% reduction in energy intensity. · Johnson Controls has reduced energy intensity 21.2% since 2009 and set a target of reducing energy intensity by a further 15% between 2014 and 2020. · Schneider Electric committed to 10% savings in energy consumption between 2012 and 2014, and a further 10% by 2017. · Siemens has committed to cutting in half its CO2 footprint by 2020 through a combination of energy efficiency and use of low-carbon technology. It plans to invest €100 million in energy efficiency in the next three years with a “sustainable annual savings of €20 million in energy costs.” Energy productivity is typically defined as the ratio of production (in dollars or volume) to energy used. We urge the Hubbell board to adopt goals and a plan to survey company facilities and operations and invest in energy productivity wherever profitable. In determining which projects to undertake, we suggest that management take into account the generally low-risk nature of energy productivity improvements and set project hurdle rates accordingly. Setting an energy efficiency target enables our company to operate more efficiently, to demonstrate the value of its own products in saving customers money, and to show its commitment to long-term sustainable business practice.

ZARIA CITY, NIGERIA WE ARE IBU IN ACTION: The Foundation’s first ever project was providing Queen Amina with solar lights so that the women could continue working in the evenings. With funds from the Ibu Foundation, Queen Amina Embroidery was able to build a brand new workspace equipped with sewing machines to replace their broken ones. The Foundation has also paid rent for the workspace for the year of 2021. Queen Amina Embroidery is named after the fearless leader Queen Amina of Nigeria that serves as a powerful role model for many young girls. The talented artisans work everyday to make beautiful pieces that showcase traditional Nigerian embroidery. Hassana Yusuf is the manager of the cooperative and plays a formative role in helping Nigerian women thrive. She is a mother of four, yet still dedicates so much time towards empowering the women of her community. As manager, she is tasked with communicating with international partners, such as Ibu Foundation, in an effort to expand Queen Amina’s market. The cooperative has grown from 25 to 40 women, with many more eager to join. The Ibu Foundation has a long history with Queen Amina Embroidery. It was their need for solar lights that inspired Susan Hull Walker, the founder of Ibu, to create the foundation to meet the needs of artisans in 2019. Since then, the Ibu Foundation has worked with Queen Amina Embroidery to build a beautiful and functional workspace that will allow their cooperative to grow with new women.

The SEC Is Kicking Bank Loan Funds to the Curb Bank loan mutual funds and ETFs play a key role in capital markets, facilitating financing for American companies and offering unique benefits to fund investors. These funds invest primarily in loans made by banks to other businesses—loans that often have stronger lender protections than other forms of debt. And amid a sharp rise in interest rates, the floating-rate nature of bank loans has helped make these funds standout performers in 2023. Yet despite their benefits to investors and importance to the financial system, bank loan funds are squarely in the crosshairs of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). If the Commission adopts its proposed rule amendments to the industry’s current liquidity risk management requirements, it would drive bank loan funds out of business, sending fund investors to the sidelines and disrupting access to capital for growing companies. Upending an Important Market By arbitrarily expanding the definition of an illiquid investment, the SEC’s proposal would cause a wide variety of funds to exceed the 15 percent cap on illiquid assets. No type of fund is more vulnerable to that change than bank loan funds, as they typically invest at least 80 percent of their assets in loans that would be deemed illiquid under the SEC’s proposal. While loans typically can be sold within seven days, they can take somewhat longer to settle in cash after trade execution, making them generally less liquid than ordinary stocks and bonds. However, because of loans’ longer settlement times, bank loan funds prudently mitigate liquidity risk by maintaining a buffer allocation to assets that can be quickly converted to cash. They also have lines of credit, lending arrangements with other funds in the same complex, and contractual provisions to expedite settlement, all of which aids their ability to navigate challenging conditions. The fact is that bank loan funds have weathered several periods of market stress over the past 20 years without incident. To date, no fund investing primarily in bank loans has suspended redemptions. Based on that track record, the SEC’s concerns are exaggerated, and its proposed prohibition on bank loan funds is unwarranted. A Better Way Forward While opposing the Commission’s extreme approach, ICI supports sensible, tailored measures that would further mitigate the liquidity risks of bank loan funds. For instance, while the SEC’s proposed 10 percent highly liquid investment minimum requirement is inappropriate for other types of funds, it makes sense for bank loan funds given their holdings of longer-settling assets. Additionally, ICI supports amending the rule’s liquidity risk factors to expressly address longer-settling investments. The SEC could pair this new language with guidance setting forth its expectations about funds’ use of liquidity risk mitigants, including credit lines. We also support examining and improving the bank loan market itself to reduce settlement times generally. The Bottom Line Loan settlement can be further improved, and liquidity risk for bank loan funds can be further mitigated in a sensible way. But the SEC’s idea of reform would be a fatal blow to these funds that poses real-world harm to shareholders as well as businesses in need of capital. The SEC should instead pursue the policy recommendations put forth by ICI and others to deliver genuine reform and preserve the viability of bank loan funds for the benefit of investors. The S&P/LSTA US Leveraged Loan Index gained 9.6% over the year-to-date period ended October 31, 2023, which represented meaningful outperformance versus fixed income markets broadly. For instance, the S&P US Aggregate Bond Index Total Return declined 1.8% over the same period. Sources: ICI calculations of Refinitiv data. According to LSTA’s comment letter to the SEC, “The long-term median buyside settlement time is nine days and it is shorter in times of market stress in light of the inherently higher settlement urgency. For example, in March 2020, the median buyside sale settlement time was seven days.”

Atmospheric rock collective/recent Pelagic Records signees SOM – comprised of current and former members of Constants, Junius, and Caspian – today unveil a moving video for “Youth // Decay.” Now playing at Revolver Magazine, the hypnotic track comes by way of the band’s Awake EP, set for release next month. Of the track, Revolver champions, “five minutes of glimmering melancholy,” further observing, “SOM… specialize in a gauzy, feedback-soaked sound… It’s not far flung from the output of high-volume shoegazers such as Deftones or Hum.” Elaborates vocalist/guitarist Will Benoit, “Before the first SOM record was done, [guitarist] Mike [Repasch-Nieves] and I were both feeling creatively and musically adrift. We got together for a couple days, recording ambient guitar and synths over glitchy beats in an attempt to change things up. Two years later when Mike and [guitarist] Joel [M. Reynolds] joined the band, I edited some of Mike’s demo parts from that session to form the main melodies in ‘Youth // Decay.’ I arranged the chords and vocals and brought it to the group. During quarantine, we all passed the demo back and forth. Slowly, this minimal, sparse piece of music grew into a dynamic, crushing song that is also the first track we finished as a five-piece.” Adds Repasch-Nieves, “Similarly, the video started as a short film that my friend and long-time colleague, director Adam Patch, had been working on. As soon as we finished the song, I knew it would be perfect for this, lyrically and thematically. We shared the song and footage with editor Samia Zaidi — who also directed our recent video for ‘Awake // Sedate.’ She took it and really brought everything into focus. It was quite serendipitous how it all came together in this way.” Combining two exclusive originals with remixes by beloved collaborators Holy Fawn, Hisself (Johnny Dang of O’Brother), U Dye (Marshall Gallagher of Teenage Wrist), and Giuseppe Capolupo (The Devil Wears Prada), Awake is a triumph of self-described “heavy dream pop.” Its concise compositions balance the gritty riffs of Deftones with airy, Tame Impala-esque vocal lines, just as primed for rock radio success as they are for shoegaze-loving connoisseurs. Awake will be released independently on limited-edition cassette and digitally via Nuclear Blast’s digital subsidiary, Blood Blast Distribution, on March 5th. Find preorders at THIS LOCATION. CD and vinyl editions of Awake will be released by Pelagic Records March 12th with preorders now available at THIS LOCATION. SOM was founded by Duncan Rich, frontman and former Constants colleague Will Benoit, and Adai founder and now-Caspian drummer Justin Forrest. While touring in support of their debut full-length The Fall in 2019, the band added guitarists Mike Repasch-Nieves and Joel M. Reynolds, both formerly of Junius and Driftoff. “We’ve always been a musical family,” notes Rich. “Will and I started a label, Radar Recordings, in Boston during the early 2000s, which was an amazing time and place for music,” says Repasch-Nieves. “It was very much a collective of like-minded artists, which grew as we all toured around the world together in the years to follow.” Awake however is far from the five longtime friends’ only endeavor to create a better world around them. Despite being recorded in quarantine, the EP was mixed by Benoit at his own Radar Studio in Connecticut – New England’s first solar-powered recording facility. Repasch-Nieves and Reynolds, meanwhile, spent 2020 sustaining an urban farm in New York City, while Forrest distributed vegan food to Black Lives Matter activists in Denver through the Summer. Equally philanthropic is Rich, who now uses his production experience to host emotional fluency events for men. While many musicians lumbered in inactivity, SOM used the darkness of recent times to create and heal. The tracks on Awake are part of SOM’s ongoing mission to “leave this place better than we found it.” Awake’s bliss is an insight not only into the kind of harmony the quintet seeks to cultivate in all facets of life, but also the exciting second full-length that looms on the horizon. “…thick and hazy but with soaring vocal harmonies that add a lightness to the song.” – BrooklynVegan on “Awake // Sedate” “SOM play the kind of somber, glimmering music that exudes a heavy fog of emotion and introspection around it.” – Kerrang! “Perfect for laying in a pile of leaves while quietly pondering everywhere you went wrong in life.” – MetalSucks

This week saw Henrik Fagerlund join Raw iGaming, bringing to an end a seven year stint at NetEnt and Evolution, which saw him fill a variety of positions, from head of game products to managing director. The period was one of impressive professional growth, and iGamingCapital.mt reached out to get his reflections on the period. He explains that from a professional perspective, he has gone through “quite a massive journey,” both in terms of the individual roles he’s held, and the part he played in NetEnt’s acquisition of Red Tiger, followed by its acquisition by Evolution. On a more personal basis, he says he hasn’t changed too much, and that he hopes to be perceived as the same person he was when he joined NetEnt in November 2014. Though, he jokes, “of course I have a few more grey hairs.” Asked about the proudest moments of his time at NetEnt (then Evolution), he acknowledges his role in acquisitions, turnarounds, and financial results scored, but emphasises the key recruitments NetEnt was able to make. “I also want to mention some of the conversations I had with employees where I came to realise I made a difference in their professional careers,” he says, adding: “That meant a lot to me.” Mr Fagerlund’s time at NetEnt saw him move to Malta in January 2018, and he says that on a personal basis he likes the island and enjoys it, stating while there are pros and cons (as in any other place), “there are mostly pros to living in Malta.” His perspective on the island’s business prospects are not as positive, however, and he expresses concern pointing to Malta’s greylisting by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), and general banking problems (for both companies and individuals). Indeed, Mr Fagerlund is not alone in his concern regarding these two factors. Malta’s greylisting last year marked the country as a higher risk jurisdiction for investment, and places increased scrutiny of companies operating on the islands. In tandem, the country’s brittle banking system has seen iGaming companies – which are already considered at high risk of money laundering and financing of terror vulnerabilities – struggle to open bank accounts locally. Last year, in comments to iGaming Capital magazine’s winter edition, Jens Podeswski, CEO of FinXP, a company aiming to address problems of local banks not accepting iGaming clients, reflected: “Alongside other high-risk industries like crypto, many companies in iGaming [have struggled] to find banking and payment service providers.” These are amongst the most pressing problems facing Malta’s iGaming industry, and leading figures in the sector are desperate for them to be addressed, with Mr Fagerlund amongst them. “The needs to be sorted,” he insists.

My third S module taken, after MA2108S and MA3110S. This module is the hardest among the three in my opinion. The tutorial had some questions are super difficult, where some of the harder questions kept getting pushed to the next tutorial, to the point where we joked about how some tutorials were perpetual. There are quite a few questions where I don’t even think I understand the question itself. Like most S modules, the prof will ask students to present their solution on the whiteboard. For those super hard questions, sometimes, someone will write down their solution, and then everyone will just not understand what on earth he is writing, and the question just got pushed to the next tutorial where the prof will explain it himself. Many times, I just gave up trying to understand the solution. Because of the pandemic, the module was moved to zoom, which I found made it harder to concentrate. There were no more solution presentations, and everything was just explained by the prof. Because the final became online, the weightage of the final was reduce, and to make up for the reduce weightage, a mini project was added, where we would write a >3 page report on some application of linear algebra. Final grade: A- (S/U option exercised, using covid SUs) Head over to our Shop for more module content!

The following poem further describes those thoughts and feelings: If Love Could Have Saved You by Justine Rose, iHeartCats I’m reminded of you when the wind blows As the falling sun set the sky aglow. I still see you chasing the leaves Running around in my dreams I feel you in the air I breathe And in the wind as it rustles the trees. Your fuzzy butt will greet me in heaven I count down the days until we meet again One thing’s for sure, I miss my friend But I know I’ll hear you in the wind.

Learn About These Adorable Australian Marsupials Koalas are one of Australia’s most iconic animals, known for their adorable appearance and laid-back lifestyle. These marsupials spend most of their lives sleeping and eating eucalyptus leaves, but there is much more to them than meets the eye. In this article, we will explore 10 fun facts about koalas that will give you a new appreciation for these fascinating creatures. First and foremost, it’s important to note that koalas are not bears. Despite their nickname of “koala bear,” they are actually marsupials, which means they carry their young in a pouch. In fact, koalas are the only surviving member of the family Phascolarctidae, making them a unique and special part of Australia’s wildlife. Another interesting fact about koalas is that they have a highly specialized diet. Eucalyptus leaves make up almost their entire diet, and they are able to digest the toxic compounds in the leaves thanks to a special digestive system. Koalas also have a low metabolic rate, which means they don’t need to eat as much as other animals their size. These adaptations have allowed koalas to thrive in their natural habitat and become one of Australia’s most beloved animals. The koala, or Phascolarctos cinereus, is a marsupial native to Australia. It is a member of the family Phascolarctidae and is closely related to wombats. Koalas are arboreal, meaning they live in trees, and are primarily found in the eucalyptus forests of eastern Australia. Koalas are known for their distinctive appearance. They have thick, grey fur with a cream-colored chest, and large, round ears. They also have strong, clawed feet that are perfect for gripping onto tree branches. Adult koalas measure about 60 to 85cm long and weigh about 14kg. Average Life Span In the wild, koalas have an average life span of around 10 to 15 years. However, koalas in captivity can live much longer, up to 20 years or more. Overall, koalas are fascinating creatures with unique physical characteristics and an interesting scientific classification. Koalas are marsupials that are found in the eucalyptus forests of eastern Australia. They are known for their love of eucalyptus leaves, which make up almost their entire diet. Koalas are arboreal and spend most of their time in trees, where they sleep, eat, and socialize. Koalas are native to Australia, where they are found in the southeast of the country. They are most commonly found in the eastern states of Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, and South Australia. The exact range of the koala is difficult to determine, as they are not evenly distributed throughout their habitat. Impact of Climate Change Climate change is a significant threat to koalas and their habitat. Rising temperatures and changes in rainfall patterns can affect the growth and quality of eucalyptus trees, which are the primary food source for koalas. In addition, bushfires, which are becoming more frequent and intense due to climate change, can destroy large areas of koala habitat. Habitat loss is also a significant threat to koalas. As human populations expand and urbanization increases, koala habitat is being destroyed at an alarming rate. The Australian government has recognized the importance of protecting koala habitat and has implemented measures to protect and restore koala habitat. However, more needs to be done to ensure the survival of this iconic species. In conclusion, koalas are fascinating animals that are uniquely adapted to life in the eucalyptus forests of eastern Australia. Their habitat is under threat from climate change and habitat loss, but efforts are being made to protect and restore their habitat. Koalas are known for their unique diet, which consists solely of eucalyptus leaves. These furry marsupials are picky eaters and will only consume certain species of eucalyptus trees. They have a preference for the leaves of the manna gum, blue gum, and swamp gum trees. Eucalyptus leaves are low in nutrition and toxic to most animals. However, koalas have a specialized digestive system that allows them to break down the tough fibers and detoxify the poisonous chemicals in the leaves. Their digestive system includes a long, muscular stomach and a special organ called a caecum, which ferments the leaves and breaks down the fiber. Despite their specialized digestive system, koalas still require a significant amount of moisture to survive. While eucalyptus leaves do contain some water, they are not sufficient to meet all of a koala’s hydration needs. Therefore, koalas must obtain water from other sources, such as dew on the leaves or rainwater. Koalas are known to consume large amounts of eucalyptus leaves, sometimes up to a kilogram per day. However, they are not able to digest all of the leaves they consume. As a result, they produce large amounts of waste, which is expelled in the form of pellets. Overall, the koala’s diet is a unique and specialized adaptation to its environment. Their ability to survive on a diet of toxic and low-nutrient eucalyptus leaves is a testament to their resilience and adaptability in the harsh Australian eucalyptus forests. Behavior and Lifestyle Koalas are known for their love of sleep, spending up to 20 hours a day dozing in the trees. They are primarily nocturnal animals and are most active at night. During the day, they sleep in the forks of trees, which provides them with both a comfortable bed and a safe haven from predators. Koalas are able to sleep so much because their diet of eucalyptus leaves is low in nutrients and requires little energy to digest. Koalas are generally solitary animals, although they do have some social interactions with other koalas. Males will interact with females during the breeding season, and females will interact with their young. However, koalas are not particularly social animals and will generally keep to themselves. They communicate with each other through a variety of vocalizations, including grunts, snores, and bellows, as well as through scent marking. Koalas have a strong sense of smell, which they use to locate suitable trees for feeding and sleeping. They are also able to recognize other koalas by their scent, which helps them to avoid potential conflicts. Despite their solitary nature, koalas do have some instinctual behaviors that help them to survive in the wild. For example, when threatened, they will climb to the top of a tree and hug the trunk tightly, making it difficult for predators to dislodge them. Reproduction and Offspring Koalas are marsupials, which means that their young are born in an undeveloped state and then continue to develop outside of the womb, attached to a teat in the mother’s pouch. The gestation period for a koala is only 35 days, after which a tiny, hairless joey (baby koala) is born, weighing only around 0.5 grams. The joey crawls from the birth canal to the pouch, where it attaches to one of the mother’s two teats. The joey will remain in the pouch for around 6 months, feeding on milk and continuing to develop. During this time, the joey’s eyes, ears, and other senses will begin to develop, and it will grow fur. After around 6 months, the joey will begin to venture out of the pouch, but will continue to return to nurse for another 6 months or so. At around 12 months old, the joey will be fully weaned and will leave the pouch for good. Koalas are capable of breeding at around 2-3 years of age, and will continue to breed throughout their lives, producing one joey per year. However, not all joeys will survive to adulthood, as they face threats such as disease, predators, and habitat loss. Health and Threats Koalas are susceptible to a number of diseases, with chlamydia being the most common. This bacterial infection can cause blindness, infertility, and death in koalas. Other diseases that affect koalas include urinary tract infections, pneumonia, and leukemia. Predators and Threats Despite their cute and cuddly appearance, koalas have several natural predators, including dingoes, pythons, and eagles. However, the biggest threat to koalas is habitat loss due to deforestation and urbanization. As their habitat is destroyed, koalas are forced to move into new areas, where they may encounter predators or suffer from drought and malnutrition. Koalas are also vulnerable to the effects of climate change, which can cause extreme weather events such as bushfires and droughts. In fact, koalas are listed as a vulnerable species, with some populations facing the risk of extinction. Conservation efforts are underway to protect koalas and their habitats, including reforestation programs and the establishment of wildlife corridors. However, more needs to be done to ensure the survival of this iconic Australian species. Conservation efforts are crucial in protecting the koala population and their habitats. There are several ways individuals can contribute to these efforts, including donations and adopting a koala. Donations to organizations such as the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and the Australian Koala Foundation (AKF) can help fund research and conservation projects. These organizations also offer opportunities to make tax-deductible donations to support koala conservation. Another way to support conservation efforts is to adopt a koala. The AKF offers an adopt-a-koala program where individuals can symbolically adopt a koala and receive updates on their progress. These donations help fund research and conservation projects aimed at protecting koalas and their habitats. Planting native trees is also an important part of koala conservation efforts. Koalas rely on eucalyptus trees for their food and habitat, and planting more of these trees can help ensure their survival. Organizations such as Koala Clancy Foundation and Trees For Life offer opportunities to get involved in tree-planting projects. Conservation efforts also involve addressing issues such as tree-clearing, which can have a negative impact on koala populations. The Australian government has implemented regulations to limit tree-clearing in areas where koalas are present. Overall, conservation efforts are crucial in protecting the koala population and their habitats. Individuals can contribute to these efforts through donations, adopting a koala, planting native trees, and supporting regulations aimed at protecting koalas and their habitats. Unique Facts and Features Koalas are fascinating creatures with unique characteristics that set them apart from other animals. Here are some fun facts about koalas that you might not know: - Fur: Koalas have thick, woolly fur that helps them regulate their body temperature. Their fur is also water-resistant, which protects them from rain and moisture. - Wombat Relatives: Koalas are not bears, despite their common name of “koala bear.” They are actually marsupials and are closely related to wombats. - Cartilage: Koalas have a special type of cartilage in their nose that helps them smell eucalyptus leaves, their primary food source. - Fingerprints: Like humans, koalas have unique fingerprints that can be used to identify individuals. - Sense of Touch: Koalas have a highly developed sense of touch, which they use to navigate their environment and find food. - Bacteria: Koalas have a unique digestive system that allows them to break down the toxic compounds in eucalyptus leaves. They also have special bacteria in their stomachs that help them digest their food. - Southeastern Australia: Koalas are native to southeastern Australia, where they live in eucalyptus forests and woodlands. - Cecum: Koalas have a large cecum, which is a specialized part of their digestive system that helps them extract more nutrients from their food. - Dharug Language: The word “koala” is thought to come from the Dharug language of the Aboriginal people of Australia. It means “no drink” or “no water,” which reflects the fact that koalas get most of their water from the leaves they eat. - Earless: Koalas have small, round ears that are covered in fur, which helps protect them from insects and other debris. - Claws: Koalas have sharp claws on their front paws that they use for climbing and gripping branches. Overall, koalas are fascinating animals with unique adaptations that allow them to thrive in their native habitat.

We all know how important is it to keep our body well hydrated, but it’s not easy to keep track of how much water we’re drinking each day. Science seems to suggests that drinking about half a gallon a day is the perfect amount of water, which is about eight cups of 8 ounce glasses. Easier said than done, however as it’s not always the easiest to precisely measure how many of those eight cups you are drinking everyday. No need to worry about counting your cups of water, thanks to the HidrateSpark Smart Water Bottle. The water bottle connects to your phone and keeps track of your water intake, while the app can set customized water intake goals and also send you reminders to drink water if it senses that you haven’t been on track. To make it even more obvious, the bottle itself will glow to remind you that it’s time to drink water.

A sportsbook is a gambling establishment that accepts wagers on various sporting events. It offers different betting lines and spreads, which are designed to attract more customers. Sports enthusiasts can also find betting news and stats on their favorite teams to get a better idea of the game’s outcome. One of the most important things to consider when choosing a sportsbook is its customer service. If a sportsbook isn’t reliable, users will quickly switch to another option. You should also look for a sportsbook that has a good reputation and is licensed in your jurisdiction. Finally, you should make sure that the sportsbook offers a good variety of bonuses and promotions. In order to make the best choice, you should know what your budget is and what your requirements are. For example, you should decide how many markets you want to cover, whether you want to include live betting, and if you will offer any special features like bonus programs. You should also look for a sportsbook with good security measures and an easy-to-use interface. How does a sportsbook make money? Sportsbooks earn their profits by collecting a commission, or “vigorish,” on losing bets. This revenue is used to pay winning bettors. The vig is typically around 10% of the total bet amount, although it can vary from one sportsbook to the next. Some sportsbooks also offer alternate lines, which are odds that reflect the expectations of different types of bettors.

Key Advantages of Buying Reddit Followers Let’s check out some of the most important advantages of learning how bought Reddit followers can help you. Increased Content Visibility and Engagement With millions of users sharing and discussing content on Reddit, standing out from the crowd can be challenging. However, having a substantial number of followers provides a significant advantage. When you purchase Reddit followers, you instantly boost your profile, resulting in increased visibility for your content. The higher your follower count, the more likely your posts will receive upvotes, which is vital in determining a post’s popularity on Reddit. Upvotes are crucial in pushing your content to the forefront of discussions and increasing its exposure to a wider audience. As a result, your posts have a greater chance of being seen, commented on, and shared, leading to enhanced engagement and interaction with fellow Redditors. Enhanced Credibility and Trust Having a large number of followers on Reddit signals to users that your content is valuable, trustworthy, and worth their time and attention. When potential followers come across your profile and notice a substantial following, they are more inclined to trust your expertise and opinions, making them more likely to engage with your content and become followers themselves. By purchasing Reddit followers, you effectively jumpstart your credibility on the platform. The perception of credibility attracts more users to your profile and encourages them to actively participate in discussions, share your content, and contribute to your growing follower count. This virtuous cycle further solidifies your reputation on Reddit and establishes you as an authoritative figure within your niche. Brand Growth and Networking Opportunities A robust Reddit following can profoundly impact the growth and expansion of businesses and brands. With a larger audience, you can showcase your products, services, or ideas to a wider pool of potential customers and clients. This increased exposure can lead to higher brand visibility, increased website traffic, and more conversions. Frequently Asked Questions Is Buying Reddit Followers Legal? Yes, buying Reddit followers is legal. However, choosing reputable providers like the five we talked about that deliver authentic followers to comply with Reddit’s guidelines is key. Are There Any Risks Involved in Buying Reddit Followers? Choosing a reputable provider will significantly reduce the risks of buying Reddit followers. Just follow Reddit’s guidelines and avoid any questionable or unethical practices. Are the Followers I Purchase Permanent? While the followers you purchase are intended to be long-lasting, there is no guarantee that they will remain permanently. All five reputable providers in our list ensure high-quality followers to maximize longevity. Building a strong Reddit following is crucial for expanding your online presence and reaching a wider audience. While organic growth is integral, purchasing Reddit followers from reputable sites can give you a valuable head start. Suppose you choose one of the best sites to buy Reddit followers from our list. In that case, you effectively select a provider that prioritizes authenticity, safety, and quality customer support to ensure a positive and practical experience.

Unable to add Paragraph Styles to Creative Cloud Library, InDesign 2018 Not sure how you can reproduce this as I haven't found anybody else with this problem, but hopefully you can figure out how to help me. I cannot add paragraph styles to the Library, and I have tried every way:"+" button on the panel with text selected, cloud button on the styles panel, dragging from the panel... nothing works. Everything else--including character styles--can be added normally. The issue is due to the Kerning being set as None, if one sets it as Optical or Metrics, it solves the issue. The issue is currently under review. Harry D Jamieson commented I can add paragraph styles to my CC Library. But all I get is the Icon with the squares chasing each other around like it's trying to upload. They do not sync. I called Adobe today and they told me that this issue "does not exist". I tried the suggestion of changing the Kerning settings, to no avail. What am I missing here? I am running the most current version (14.0.1). I have restarted the program. I have restarted the machine. I can successfully add color swatches to the Library. Adjusting the Kerning as suggested worked for me. Thank you Anasuiya. Thanks for sharing the document. I am able to reproduce the issue at my end as well. I will investigate further as to what is causing the issue. Sorry, still trying to figure how sharing works, that link doesn't work anymore. Try this: https://adobe.ly/2z8KAnI Apologies for the late reply. I didn't get a notification in my email of your reply and only now I got around checking back directly in here. I have just shared a test file with the old styles loaded in: https://adobe.ly/2hFlR2Q Hopefully you'll figure out what's going on. Thanks for providing this information! Is this specific to a single documents or with all the documents you are using that were created in the earlier versions of InDesign? If possible, please share a few documents (created in earlier versions and use to load styles,etc.) with which you see these issues at email@example.com, this will help us debug the issue you are facing. Hi, thanks for the response. 1. InDesign 13.0 (CC2018) on Windows 10 2. Since the update to CC2018 from 2017, when it first rolled out. 3. I see the checkbox but nothing happens after I click ok. It doesn't get added to the Library. However, I discovered that any method will work in a brand new document or documents that were created shortly ago. The problem seems to appear on older files so I'm guessing it's a compatibility issue? I have tried creating a new file and loading the styles from an old file. Not only I cannot add those styles to the library, now the document is unable to add new styles by any method, including the flyout menu. Undoing the loading of styles restores that functionality to the document.

In a state government like Telangana, the Cabinet is composed of ministers appointed by the Chief Minister, each handling specific portfolios corresponding to various government departments. These portfolios come with a range of responsibilities, including policy formulation, legislative contributions, budget allocation, administration, and representation of the government’s interests. Cabinet ministers in Telangana are tasked with formulating policies related to their respective departments. This involves a thorough analysis of existing issues, proposing effective solutions, and developing strategies to address challenges within their areas of responsibility. Their role is pivotal in shaping the direction of government policies that impact the lives of the people. Furthermore, these ministers play a crucial role in the legislative process. They contribute to the formulation and passage of bills related to their portfolios, ensuring that laws align with the government’s overall agenda and priorities. This legislative involvement is integral to the effective functioning of the government and the implementation of its policies. The allocation of funds and resources for their departments is another significant responsibility for Cabinet ministers. They actively participate in the state budgeting process, prioritizing expenditures and ensuring that financial resources are utilized efficiently to meet the goals of their respective ministries. This financial stewardship is crucial for the successful execution of government initiatives. In terms of administration and implementation, ministers are responsible for overseeing the day-to-day functioning of their departments. They work towards the effective implementation of government policies, programs, and projects, ensuring that they are executed efficiently and contribute to the overall well-being of the state and its citizens. Cabinet ministers also serve as representatives of the government and their respective departments in public forums, discussions, and interactions with various stakeholders. They engage with the media, attend public events, and communicate government policies to the public, fostering transparency and accountability. Addressing challenges and issues within their departments promptly is an expectation placed on ministers. This involves problem-solving, decision-making, and collaboration with other ministers and government officials to achieve optimal outcomes for the benefit of the state and its residents. Collaboration is key, as Cabinet ministers work closely with other ministers and government agencies to ensure a coordinated approach to governance. This collaboration extends to working with the Chief Minister, fostering a united front for the betterment of the state. In this context, Md Faheem Qureshi emerges as a potential candidate for a cabinet post in the Telangana Government. His dedication to bringing in the minority vote bank, his instrumental role in strengthening the party, and his alliance with Revanth Reddy position him as a dynamic and capable leader. With a commitment to inclusive governance and a vision for Telangana’s progress, Md Faheem Qureshi could contribute significantly to the state’s development if appointed to a cabinet post. His leadership qualities align with the need for representatives who can work collaboratively, ensuring a more representative and inclusive government for all citizens of Telangana.

Inspired by the Carl Sandberg poem Chicago, Hop Butcher for the World are approachable artisans of their craft with a passion for hops “Every craft beer is an expression of the passion and creativity of its producers/creators and a glimpse inside the minds of people who truly love what they’re doing,” states Miller who started out as a home brewer. In 2016, he was brewing every other weekend so decided to join RAM Restaurant & Brewery as an assistant brewer. Two years later, he joined Hop Butcher. “The creative aspect of brewing is my favorite part. Taking ideas from brainstorm to actual brew day is extremely fulfilling for me. It’s art, but it’s science and it can be different—if you want it to be—from batch to batch. My favorite style to brew right now is Milkshake IPAs. Each time we do a new milkshake IPA, it feels like an adventure; and canning days have this special, childhood whimsy to them. The entire brewery smells like whatever fruit we used, and the first try out of the can is always special.” When asked what defines Hop Butcher in the market, co-founder Jeremiah Zimmer says it’s “an extreme passion for super-fresh, hop-forward beers that come and go each week, all year round. Hop Butcher is approachable, communicative and appreciative of those who scoop our cans.” On occasion, Zimmer sends out free boxes of Hop Butcher beer. Most recently, a box landed in the hands of Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan, and his wife, Chloe Mendel. One thing led to another, and the couple asked Hop Butcher to brew a beer to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Smashing Pumpkins Gish album that propelled them to rock and roll stardom. The beer, Soul Head (named after the amp Corgan used while recording the album) utilizes three hand-selected lots of Strata. Given the sticky fruit flavors and wafting cannabis component of Strata, we think it’s a fitting hop to use in a beer that commemorates one of alt-rock’s legends! Adding to the excitement of brewing beers for rock bands, is Hop Butcher’s move into a new 13,000 square foot location, which they purchased from Half Acre Beer Co. This is a dream come true for Zimmer and his business partner Jude La Rose. Hop Butcher brings enthusiasm, approachability, and a love of “the variety of ways [hops] can be used in brewing and the range of flavors and aromas that they bring to beer.” We’re stoked to see what they brew up next! “Indie Hops has gone above and beyond any expectations we have as producers. From customer service to hop quality to R&D, it’s all been top-notch.” / JUSTIN MILLER, HEAD BREWER @ HOP BUTCHER FOR THE WORLD

Each day of the series offers new tips, ideas and a challenge to start the year with a solid financial plan. Before you can put together a working budget, you’ll need to track those non-billed expenses—groceries, gas, clothing and other spending money. Hopefully, you unearthed a pile of receipts on the first day of our series. If not, you’ll need to track expenses for a few weeks to get a good picture of where you’re spending money. We use Mint.com to track our budget. It allows you to set budgets for spending categories, then track progress throughout the month. You can also connect your bank & credit card accounts so you can load your transactions directly into Mint. It also attempts to automatically categorize them which is pretty cool. Except when the public library is shortened to “pub” and it categorizes overdue book fees (ahem) as alcohol. Once you know how much you’ve been spending on everything you buy, you’ll be able to set a reasonable limit on each category for your new budget. But, not right now. For today, just go through the same process you did when you were sorting bills. This time, with receipts or bank statements, calculate how much you spend on everyday essentials, wants and needs. We’ll dive more into the difference between those next week! I’m not a financial planner or a budget expert. I’ll just be walking you through the steps I take each time my budget needs an adjustment. In fact, I’ll be participating myself!

Listening is a top priority of agents in the contact center, one of the first questions in any interview pertains to how well a candidate or agent listens. That skill will always be needed at the micro level when fielding calls from customers and listening to understand and resolve the issue at hand. What if you could save thousands, add additional products that you knew would work before even launching those products, and increase profits without adding headcount? Don’t you like it when articles ask you questions you know the answer to? The reality is that is possible right now, the data is there to be mined, cataloged, and put into action to drive revenues at your organization. Every day your customers are telling you exactly what you should be doing to increase revenue and profits, however, you may not be dialed in to take action. The Wheels of Innovation Turned Slowly Back in 2021 Think way back to 2021, before AI was a mainstream term in the contact center industry. For an innovative idea to come to fruition, there was a lot that went into making it possible. Interviewing agents, customers, and focus groups. Then, taking those answers and findings a company would build an offering to test, tweak, and either roll out or squash. There was a lot of guessing, educated guessing based on feedback that agents and the quality assurance team heard. Almost a secondhand or translated account of what the customer is asking for. One of the many flaws with this method is that the biggest priority is often not what gets addressed. Usually, priorities were based on: - What the most well-spoken or loudest agent says gets addressed. - What the most assertive agents, or detailed agents remember is what gets handled. - What the most tenured agents feel gets more priority. The Guessing Game is Over Thanks to Conversation Intelligence There is no more guessing what a customer wants or needs, they tell you every second of every day in every conversation. The customer is telling you so many things however the agent can only recall a handful of the conversations. Your QA can’t possibly keep up, it is not humanly possible. Conversational Analytics record, catalog, organize, and create action items from daily conversations. Those conversations are aggregated from different locations and segmented however you would like the data to be collected. Some of the insights your customers are telling you that you may or may not be capturing are: - New products they would like to see - Common flaws in current products that could be fixed - Identifying self-service options and FAQs that you don’t know about - What your customer calls something versus what you call that product - Conversation commonalities and differences by region, demographics & more Capture, Analyze, and Prioritize One of the many advantages of implementing conversational intelligence is that the decision is democratized within the organization. There is not a lot of room for one person’s “gut feeling” to supersede another’s findings or preferences. The numbers never lie. Capture: That is the first step in the process. Simply capturing the information through conversations utilizing cutting-edge AI solutions like Observe.ai. Just focus on capturing the data. Analyze: What is the data telling you? What patterns are developing that you can identify? This is where it gets interesting as assumptions will be confirmed and dismissed all at once. Listen to the data, it is telling a story about your company, brand, and customer experience. Prioritize: With the information, issues, and opportunities identified it is imperative to prioritize those. The data tells the story and what needs addressing based on the frequency. Think of this in terms of what is causing revenue loss, what revenue opportunities could be gained, automation based on frequency, and more. The Best Teams Constantly Analyze and Improve Just like the top professional sports teams analyze every single play they run, you can also analyze every contact made. Playing the Monday Morning Quarterback role for your contact center with the help of AI. Even if a customer hangs up or disconnects from chat before an agent has the chance to help, the root of the issue can be identified and remedied with AI. It is no secret to leaders in the contact center that there are so many missed opportunities to automate and become more efficient. Now, acting is more possible than ever. Your contact center could be sitting on a goldmine of insights that pave the way for an unprecedented growth trajectory, thanks to conversational intelligence. Now, the question is, are you ready to listen? Playing Monday Morning Quarterback in The Contact Center While taking thousands of interactions and aggregating that information is something we can help with, we also are taking calls one by one and highlighting strategies that can improve the customer experience in the contact center with our new series on the Inflow Experience Podcast. Have a listen, or watch as we tackle common contact center issues and offer advice on how to automate, leverage solutions, and more every Monday Morning this fall! Navigating the world of AI in the contact center can be overwhelming, especially given the challenges your company is facing. Reach out to our team of experts, we understand and live in this world every single day. Regardless of AI’s ability to listen to conversations in bulk, our process of focusing on you & your needs first will never change.

Negative ions and radioactivity are two concepts that are often discussed together. Essentially, negative ions are molecules that contain an atom or molecule that has gained one or more electrons, resulting in a negatively charged particle. Radioactivity, on the other hand, refers to the spontaneous emission of ionizing radiation from the nucleus of an atom. When negative ions are present in a radioactive environment, they can interact with the radiation in various ways. This introduction sets the stage for a discussion on the properties and interactions of negative ions and radioactivity. The Basics of Negative Ions Negative ions are molecules that have gained an electron, and they occur naturally in the environment. They are found in high concentrations near waterfalls, oceans, and forests. Negative ions have been shown to improve mood, reduce stress, and increase energy levels. They do this by neutralizing free radicals in the body, which cause cell damage and inflammation. The Science of Negative Ions Negative ions are created when an atom gains an electron. This process can occur naturally, such as during lightning storms or near waterfalls, or artificially, such as with air ionizers. Negative ions are negatively charged, and they are attracted to positively charged particles in the environment, such as dust and pollutants. When negative ions attach to these particles, they neutralize them and cause them to fall to the ground. The Benefits of Negative Ions There are many benefits to negative ions, including: Reduced stress and anxiety Increased energy levels Improved cognitive function Better sleep quality Improved respiratory function The Basics of Radioactive Particles Radioactive particles are atoms that emit radiation. There are many different types of radiation, including alpha, beta, and gamma radiation. Radioactive particles occur naturally in the environment, such as with radon gas, and they can also be created artificially, such as with nuclear power plants. One key takeaway from this text is that negative ions and radioactive particles have very different effects on our health, with negative ions having many positive health benefits and radioactive particles having negative health effects. While negative ions may be able to neutralize some radioactive particles in the environment, it is still important to avoid exposure to them whenever possible. Both negative ions and radioactive particles are important factors to consider when it comes to our environment and our health. The Science of Radioactive Particles Radioactive particles emit radiation as they decay. The type of radiation emitted depends on the type of particle and the energy level of the decay. Alpha particles are the least penetrating and can be stopped by a piece of paper, while gamma rays are the most penetrating and can pass through several feet of concrete. Exposure to radioactive particles can have many negative health effects, including: Increased risk of cancer Negative Ions vs. Radioactive Particles Negative ions and radioactive particles are both present in the environment, but they have very different effects on our health. Negative ions have been shown to have many positive health benefits, while radioactive particles can have negative health effects. One key takeaway from this text is the importance of understanding the differences between negative ions and radioactive particles in terms of their effects on our health. While negative ions have many positive health benefits, such as improving mood and reducing stress, radioactive particles can have serious negative health effects, including an increased risk of cancer and genetic damage. It is important to be mindful of both negative ions and radioactive particles in our environment and to take steps to protect ourselves from exposure to harmful radiation whenever possible. The Interaction of Negative Ions and Radioactive Particles There is some evidence to suggest that negative ions may be able to neutralize radioactive particles in the environment. This is because negative ions are attracted to positively charged particles, such as radioactive particles. When negative ions attach to radioactive particles, they neutralize them and cause them to fall to the ground. The Importance of Avoiding Radioactive Particles While negative ions may be able to neutralize radioactive particles, it is still important to avoid exposure to them whenever possible. This includes avoiding areas with high levels of radioactive particles, such as near nuclear power plants, and taking measures to protect yourself from exposure, such as wearing protective clothing and using air filters. The Role of Negative Ions and Radioactive Particles in Our Environment Negative ions and radioactive particles are both important factors to consider when it comes to our environment and our health. Negative ions are naturally occurring and are found in high concentrations near waterfalls, oceans, and forests. They are important for maintaining a healthy environment and have been shown to have many positive health benefits. Radioactive particles are also present in the environment, both naturally and artificially. They can have negative health effects and are a concern for public health and safety. It is important to be aware of the risks associated with exposure to radioactive particles and to take steps to avoid exposure whenever possible. FAQs for Negative Ions Radioactive What are negative ions? Negative ions refer to atoms or molecules that have gained one or more electrons, resulting in a net negative charge. These negatively charged ions are commonly found in nature, particularly in places with moving water like waterfalls, beaches, and forests. Are negative ions radioactive? Negative ions themselves are not radioactive. They occur naturally and are not a product of nuclear decay. However, negative ions can be generated artificially through the use of ionizers, which can produce small amounts of ozone. Ozone is a naturally occurring gas that can be found at the Earth’s surface or formed in the atmosphere, and it is not radioactive. How do negative ions affect the body? Negative ions have been shown to have a range of health benefits, such as reducing stress, improving mood, and boosting energy levels. It is believed that negative ions may achieve their beneficial effects by increasing the flow of oxygen to the brain and other organs, promoting relaxation, and bolstering the immune system. In general, negative ions are not harmful to humans. However, there are some cases in which negative ions may be problematic. For instance, high levels of negative ions can be found in some indoor environments, such as poorly ventilated basements, and this may contribute to indoor air pollution. Additionally, people with respiratory problems may experience breathing difficulties if they are exposed to high levels of negative ions or ozone. Can negative ions protect against radiation? There is some evidence to suggest that negative ions may have a protective effect against the harmful effects of radiation exposure. Some studies have found that exposure to negative ions may increase the activity of natural killer cells, which play a role in fighting cancer and other diseases. However, it is important to note that the effects of negative ions on radiation exposure are still being studied, and more research is needed before any definitive conclusions can be drawn.

Princess Folasade Adeyemi, eldest daughter of the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, has disclosed she decided to remain single and not married by choice. She revealed this in a recent interview with The Nation. The princess, who has won several cultural awards both locally an internationally, said that she does not intend to marry anytime soon but explained that “it is not difficult for me to say a capital ‘no’ with respect to men that approach me for a date.” According to the princess, who once contested the House of Representatives and Assembly seat, she will say yes when the right man eventually surfaces. “But certainly,when the right choice comes, I will not hesitate to give a positive answer. My ideal man will have to be very intelligent, bold, with good principles .he will be the type that allows me to be who I am and will be ready to add great value to my life. I guess that is as simple as ABC.” Would she like her suitor to come from Oyo? she answered: “one should not have a soulmate based on what states they come from. A soulmate I believe is more about how one feels about that person, not about where he or she comes from.” Explaining how she feels being a daughter of the Alaafin, she quipped: “I have been living in America for years. It was a great privilege to travel to America at the age of 13. For that, I’m very grateful. So I can say that right now, it is very comfortable to be the daughter of Alaafin of Oyo. But about 10 years ago, when I just came back from the United States, it was not that easy and comfortable for me. Thank God, I have branded myself and people now appreciate me and know my worth.” Speaking on why the Alaafin does not make it compulsory for his children to follow a particular religion, she noted: “the palace is a traditional institution. We grew up with Ifa, Sango, Obatala and Ogun, while the royal family’ religion is Islam. But as we grew older, Alaafin’s children grew in all other aspects of development too. Some of us listen to inner call and choose preferred religion.” “We still have strong, influential female characters in the palace today; most of the senior Oloris of Baba Alaafin are influential. And I will also include myself (laughs),” she revealed when asked if there are still influential female characters in the palace, like in the past. She added: “I am not my father’s PA but I am more like a consultant and I do represent him at any forum on cultural events if there is need to do so. “Growing in the palace was like a town itself with very strict discipline, full of cultural events and uncountable visitor. We, the princesses, always have to be good looking in order to receive visitors and prepare them to meet Baba Alaafin. I remember that we the children were not going out to see friends or go to our friend’s houses. We were nnot used to going to parties too or to anywhere on our own. However, we used to attend events with our dad or with the Oloris,” she narrated. She disclosed that drums attract her most. “When I hear the good sound of a drum, I immediately get dancing feet. I am a good dancer, whenever Baba dances, I always challenge him (laughs); that is how good I am.” Packaging cultural event is her passion. And she has received commendations for that within and outside the country.As her passion for culture grew, she created Arewa House of Culture. ” I took over Oyo Alaafin cultural events by repackaging the ancient festivals such as Sango, Egungun, Agidan Ifa, Isese Day and Oranyan festivals. I was very proud of myself when I created the maiden edition of National Isese day celebration festival in Trinidad in 2014.”

Mr Akinyemi Akinlabi, a former Chairman of Ibarapa Central Local Government in Oyo State has applauded the appointment of Mr Zaccheus Adedeji by President Bola Tinubu as Special Adviser on Revenue. This is contained in a statement he personally signed and made available to newsmen on Friday in Ibadan. The president had on Thursday announced Adedeji as one of his eight newly approved Special Advisers. Adedeji was a former Commissioner for Finance in Oyo state during the administration of late former Gov. Abiola Ajimobi and immediate past Executive Secretary, National Sugar Development Council (NSDC). Akinlabi described all the appointments made by the president as commendable, saying everyone on the list are professionals with proven track records. The former local government chairmen said that Adedeji deserved the newly created position for him given the present economic situation of the county. He described Adedeji as a knowledgeable and competent financial expert, who had in previous positions held, demonstrated capacity with great results. The APC chieftain said that Adedeji has the capacity and competence to block leakages in revenue sources while opening new windows to drive the nation’s revenue base. Akinlabi said that the president has demonstrated more than preparedness to transform Nigeria, adding such was evident in the commendations on Tinubu’s efforts from across the world. He expressed optimism that the nation would benefit a lot from all individuals that made up the appointments made so far by the president. “We thank Mr President on the appointments made so far. They are all professionals with proven track records. As for our own Adedeji, we proud of him and confident he will deliver,” he said.

This newsletter is published quarterly using a cycle of perspectives on the Integral City viewed from: Planet, People, Place and Power. The theme of this issue is Planet. ...when we bring together the 4+1 Voices of many cities, we can cocreate the next generation of IT—the Integral Technology that will enable us to design cities using the Master Code—the Evolutionary Intelligence of Care. This is so needed by our Planet of Cities to create a planet-centric Integral Ecology …. By aligning our Caring Capacities, we will naturally expand the Carrying Capacity of our Smart and Resilient Cities. We may also take the critical next steps to avoid the human version of Colony Collapse Disorder that our dancing cousins the bees have warned us about. Integral City Inquiry & Action offers a design choreography to invent the dance that integrates the intelligences of the Smart, Resilient, and Integral Cities and wake up the Human Hive to its full potential and cocreate the life conditions for city well-being!

Is Superordinate Goal the Gift of Covid19? In our VUCA world, confused and confounded by the rapid global spread of covid19, we may be viewing the unexpected emergence of a superordinate goal that is quickly aligning a plurality of nations, cities, citizens and experts to work together for survival. A superordinate goal (a term coined by Dr. Don Beck, co-author of Spiral Dynamics) is a goal that transcends and includes multiple other goals so that all stakeholders work together. This empowering alignment has the capacity to resolve often contradictory, opposing and polarized factions. A superordinate goal is the anchor, attractor and energizer for the emergence of a Meshwork. Ironically , to wake up the world to the superordinate goal, it has taken a disease that threatens the practical, political and personal survival of individuals and collectives. As the covid19disease spreads, takes its tolls and stretches all our resourcefulness, a veil is parting that reveals our need to cooperate and collaborate to survive this microbial threat. More than that, as it travels is it revealing the necessity for us to honour universal ONEness, our vast interconnectedness and our need to align strategies, resources and compassion on multiple levels of complexity? As I write this newsletter, I am involved in the Findhorn Community’s response to strengthening our personal and collective immunity. We continue in service to the health of our Planet and the transformation of our being/doing/relating/co-creating courses and activities. However, even as we affirm our service to Life, Love and Learning, we have made difficult decisions to close down our classes and cease operations for 2 months. We respond both proactively to our own decisions for community wellbeing, as well as the National Health Service guidelines and federal edicts. At the same time, we are faced with economic questions about supporting our co-workers, the wider community and assisting our most vulnerable. Simultaneously, we also invest ever more intentionally in the practices that are our strengths: Deep Inner Listening, Co-creating with the Intelligences of Nature, Work as Love in Action, Living Roots of Community and Attunement to Collective Consciousness. All of these ways of being give us an Overview of Wholeness and how we can serve Wellbeing – cosmically, globally and locally. (Click to read the Full Editorial Here.) VUCA World – Contact or Contract? Contract can mean “to confirm an agreement” or “to reduce/diminish/withdraw in size”. In the English language it is ambiguous, paradoxical and ironic that the same word can mean both a positive affirming energy and a negative declining energy. In the VUCA world of a pandemic like covid19 both meanings of the word “contract” are in play. As the world is being given orders to stop contact, the daily contracts we depend on as implicit agreements that govern dependable life conditions are being broken or denounced. In shock and/or defiance it is natural for us to contract and hunker down into protective positions. Thus, we are experiencing the tensions that arise from simultaneously experiencing both meanings of “contract”. And when we are told “no contact” is a key strategy for avoiding or slowing the spread of covid19, how are humans to resolve the tensions of contract/contract? If ever we sought a lived example of VUCA we are now living in global scale times of volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity. VUCA is no longer a military term – it is becoming the only way we can describe our daily realities. Ironically the official responses to covid19, of isolation and quarantine may elicit the counter-response of community caring and compassion. Because, although the death rate seems high (by comparison to common flu but lower than SARS) the virus is likely to visit most communities and the only way we will be able to counteract all the downturns is to bring together the 4 Voices and enact the Master Code of Care – regardless of what the government/official edicts say. In the middle of difficult times, the best policy is always the Truth. And that seems to be the most challenging behaviour for our officials to deliver. While it may be a natural (defensive) reaction to contract in the face of attack, the lessons of the bees and the 4 voices is to do exactly the opposite – we should be in contact with one another. Connecting and reassuring and serving and caring engender positive psychology which is the greatest support we can give our immune systems. Fortuitously our technology allows us to connect without physical contact – and for a time we must practise social distancing physically but use the video/audio options that enable our mirror neurons to respond to the body language of our family, friends, neighbours, colleagues and even our officials.

Our Associate and Core Team Member, Beth Sanders, announces the realease of Nest City: How Citizens Serve Cities and How Cities Serve Citizens.

Safeway Foundation – Entertainment Industry Foundation | Hunger is New PSAs are part of a year-round effort to spotlight and address childhood hunger, which affects one in five children in the United States Academy Award®-nominated actress Viola Davis together with The Safeway Foundation and the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF) today launched Hunger Is, a joint charitable program designed to raise awareness and funds to fight childhood hunger in the United States. The year-round campaign encourages individuals and communities to get involved in solving a widespread problem that too often goes unnoticed. “One in five children in America struggle with hunger — that’s nearly seventeen million children. I was one of those children; I was the one in five,” said Davis. “I am honored to join The Safeway Foundation and the Entertainment Industry Foundation to increase awareness and raise funds to help end childhood hunger.” Funds raised through the initiative will go toward programs focused on eradicating childhood hunger and improving health-related outcomes. During the inaugural year, breakfast programs will be the focus, giving children a healthy start to their day and the best chance to excel. Research shows that children who eat breakfast have better school attendance and achieve higher math scores than children who lack adequate access to food. “It is unacceptable that millions of children in this country go hungry each day. The good news is that we can make a difference in their lives and send them to class ready and able to learn,” said Larree Renda, Safeway Inc. Executive Vice President and Chair of The Safeway Foundation. Safeway shoppers will also have multiple opportunities to give during an in-store Childhood Hunger awareness fundraiser during the month of April at more than 1,300 Safeway stores across the United States. “We are so grateful to Viola Davis for her profound generosity in sharing her personal story and lending her powerful voice to this campaign,” said EIF President and CEO Lisa Paulsen. “Too many kids are not getting the nutrition they need to reach their full potential, and we’re privileged to work with The Safeway Foundation to engage communities across the country in helping to change that.” More information about the issue is available at HungerIs.org, along with simple ways for individuals to donate. About Hunger Is Hunger Is, a joint charitable program of The Safeway Foundation and the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF), is designed to build awareness and raise funds in an effort to eradicate childhood hunger in America. Funds raised through Hunger Is directly benefit programs focused on combating childhood hunger and improving health-related outcomes. For more information, visit www.HungerIs.org. About The Safeway Foundation Founded in 2001, The Safeway Foundation supports causes that impact our customers’ lives.

The title of each Biennale acts as the exhibition’s programmatic manifesto. The Milk of Dreams is a reference to Surrealism. Why this choice? In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in Surrealism, understood no longer as the sort studied at school, by Breton, Ernst, Dali, but an extended, different Surrealism. Many exhibitions have looked at international Surrealism; not only French Surrealism, but also what was happening in North Africa, in the colonies, in America, as well as the leading role of women in the movement. So there has been a lot of critical work to rediscover different faces of Surrealism. Looking at just Venice, that is what the exhibition at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection does. We did not plan this with them beforehand: it was a coincidence, but of the kind that are never coincidences. This happens when the antennae of art simultaneously pick up the signs of the times…. They pick up on the parallels between the time when Surrealism was born and the time we live in now. Surrealism was founded in 1924, after the First World War. I find points of common with that period in history – the return of so many reactionary governments, the great economic and social upheaval taking place, first with Covid and now with the Russian invasion of Ukraine – and it seems to me that many artists are using methodologies or techniques similar to those of the Surrealists. Of course now there is more freedom of condemnation, at least in some parts of the world, but artists again resort to dreams, to the unconscious, to represent the crisis of our society. How do you think the artists involved by you and those proposed by the participating countries have interpreted the theme? Beyond the prizes awarded, what has surprised or impressed you? It is always a fluid process. We went through two intense years of contact with artists from all over the world, but at a distance, in personal isolation. These months coincided with the pandemic and the PC monitor was our only window for a long time. What emerged was an idea of introspection, the intention to analyse what was happening through the physicality of the body. I seem to read an intense concern in the artists. They have brought this to Venice to different degrees. Would you also call it a Biennale on the borders? I am thinking of the boundaries of identity, those of the human being in relation to his own species, other life forms, the resources of the planet… I think artists look for affinities between human and other life forms. It is a field that not only they,but also philosophers and scientists had begun to explore even before the pandemic. Then all our swaggering confidence was shattered by a virus: it has been a harsh lesson in humility, a warning to look at our role in the universe in more modest terms. We need to envisage a form of relationship that is not just exploitation of others and of the Earth. War has once again broken into the century-old history of the Biennale. You have said that you hope this exhibition will be a space in which to preserve or re-establish relationships. Can art really be a bridge at certain junctures? Does it retain its independence of judgement? I think so, of course insofar as it can. When borders and diplomatic channels are closed, that of art sometimes manages to remain open. Although confined to the cultural sphere and perhaps fragmentary, it enables contacts to be made with people who would otherwise be completely invisible behind impenetrable, ever new iron curtains. This war broke out unexpectedly just before the opening, and the Biennale’s space for culture also became a space for diplomacy, precisely because it is also an expression of the national pavilions. We have done everything we could to support the Ukrainian one. What are the five time capsules and what task do they have in the overall design of this Art Biennale? They are exhibitions within the exhibition, small presentations. They re-present historical works mainly from the twentieth century, bar a few exceptions. They explore themes that shed light on themajor exhibition: the idea of metamorphosis, of the cyborg, that is, of the connections between body and machine. I was interested in conceiving an Art Biennale centred on the contemporary and flanked by a series of zooms into the historical context. The Venice Biennale is the oldest of its kind in the world. I wanted to go back in time beyond the two-year period investigated by the current edition. Does it give value to the Biennale that it was born in Venice and takes place here? Venice itself is a somewhat surreal city. It is in everyone’s collective imagination, but no one reallyknows it well. It spans time, suspended on water. To artists it offers inexhaustible inspiration. What has you poured of your experience into this assignment? You are the first female Italian curator in fifty-nine editions. The precedent of the Italian Pavilion, which I curated for the 2017 exhibition, was important. At the Biennale I found the same staff as then. I was helped by the familiarity with the exhibition spaces, which are unique and quite complex. In New York, I work for the Highline; not a museum in the strict sense, but an open-air public art project. And the Biennale is not a classical museum space either, so it was of useful for me to approach it from a similar perspective. It gave me the necessary elasticity.

Webinar on “Openness of SAIs and Ensuring Inclusiveness in Emergency Conditions” The COVID-19 Expert Group initiative within INTOSAI Supervisory Committee on Emerging Issues held its third webinar on September 17, 2020 which explored the topics of SAI openness and ensuring inclusiveness in emergency conditions. The audience of the event was comprised by representatives from 66 SAIs who listened to presentations from SAIs Brazil, Russia, USA and INTOSAI Development Initiative. The reports and comments by the speakers presented a broad range of views and perspectives on the topics of the discussion supported by real-life examples and experience both during and before the pandemic. Namely, the idea of inclusiveness found reflection in the context of SAI engagement with its own employees, especially valuable during the current crisis. Another perspective examined inclusiveness as a focus of traditional audit work and embracing the Leave No One Behind principle as one of the main guidelines of the SAIs core business. Moreover, the discussion covered examples and the need for inclusiveness across the INTOSAI community, as the support from the international community and other SAIs has becoming increasingly necessary to assure the continuity of operations of some SAIs during the pandemic. Separately, the meeting centered upon the concept openness which ranged from general guiding principles regarding the work of government agencies and SAI communication strategies to particular examples of making the audit results known to general public and stakeholders. The speakers discussed some tricky problems resulting from broad citizen engagement and shared their experience in ensuring accountability and transparency in the pandemic conditions. You can watch the full version of the webinar on the official Youtube channel of the Accounts Chamber of the Russian Federation.

The following synopsis and link provide some great info on exit planning from the perspective of some of the financial planners at Morgan Stanley. The company in which you hold an equity stake is considering going public. The business you’ve built painstakingly over the years has attracted the interest of a potential buyer. These potential liquidity events may represent a significant magnification of wealth for you in the months to come. Liquidity events — so called because they may convert illiquid assets to cash or marketable securities — can increase your wealth substantially. With proper planning, the right timing and an experienced team of advisors, you may also mitigate the elevated personal income and estate tax liability usually associated with an Initial Public Offering or the sale of a privately held company.

3 Reasons why Metacade (MCADE) is a good investment Metacade price has pulled back sharply from its highest level this year. According to TradingView, MCADE was trading at $0.021, meaning it has fallen by more than 13% from its highest level this year. Here are some of the top reasons to invest in MCADE today. Debt ceiling deal is getting closerCopy link to section One of the top reasons why Metacade has pulled back recently is the debt ceiling issue in the United States. In the past few days, Democrats and Republicans have been negotiating about the debt ceiling. During these talks, the two sides have been at odds, with each having some tough conditions. Democrats favour a clean debt ceiling deal while Republicans have had several pre-conditions, including cutting government spending. The deadline for these negotiations is on June 1, when Janet Yellen has said that the US government will run out of money. The consequences of not having a deal are dire since it would mean that the US would default on its obligations. Besides, the country has a $31 trillion debt. This explains why stocks, commodities, and cryptocurrencies have pulled back recently. Now, there are signs that the two sides are making progress and the US will not default. Biden has agreed to some of the GOP’s priorities like capping spending to 2022 levels and reducing bureaucracy in energy permitting in the US. Looking to invest? Invest globally in stocks, options, futures, currencies, bonds and funds from a single unified platform, with our highest-rated broker. Therefore, since assets dropped because of a risk of a default, there is a likelihood that they will bounce back of there is a deal. As such, Metacade could jump because of these macro news. Similarly, it will likely rise if the Fed decides to end or pause its interest rate hikes. Are you looking for fast-news, hot-tips and market analysis? Sign-up for the Invezz newsletter, today. Key Metacade catalystsCopy link to section The other reason why Metacade price is a good investment is that it has several catalysts coming up in the next few months. First, according to Metacade’s white paper, the developers have committed to deliver more exchange listings this year. They have already listed it on MEXC, BitMart, and Uniswap, as we wrote here. Because of its popularity, Metacade will likely be listed in other exchanges like Coinbase, Binance, OKX, and Huobi. Historically, cryptocurrency prices tend to rally when there is a major exchange listings. The other catalyst is that the developers have partnered with a well-known brand to build its game, which will be launched this year. In most periods, cryptocurrencies tend to rally ahead of major news and events. Cryptocurrency correlationCopy link to section The other reason why MCADE price will likely rise is because of cryptocurrency correlation. A quick look at the crypto market shows that most digital currencies have also pulled back recently. Bitcoin has dropped from $31,000 to $27,000. The same is true with other cryptocurrencies like Solna and Cardano. This decline is mostly because of the debt ceiling issue and the risks it poses to the economy. Now, with the deal being in the horizon, there is a likelihood that most digital coins will also bounce back. If this happens, Metacade will likely be a beneficiary.Still, there are several risks for investing in Metacade. For example, there is a risk that the token will underperform during winter as most cryptocurrencies do in most years. Further, there is a risk that the Metacade game will not be a hit when it is launched.

An innovative system for recovering energy from tidal currents is proposed. The system is composed of a blade immersed in sea water and connected to a vertical bar which, moving up and down under the action of the sea current, transfers energy to a double effect pump. The latter feeds a pressurized reservoir providing a water flow rate, at suitable pressure, to a hydraulic turbine. The basic configuration involves a four-bar linkage connecting the vertical bar and the piston pump. The system can be employed in all the sites whose seabed quickly deepens and whose tidal currents are parallel to the coast. In this paper, the authors provide a methodology for designing the system, once found the bathymetry of the chosen site and the field of variation of the tidal current velocities, taking into account the morphology of the costal boundary layer. A case study, developed for the Calabrian site of Punta Pezzo (Strait of Messina – Italy), demonstrated the technical feasibility.

Currently FieldInfo is tracked per IW session to guarantee consistent global field-naming / ordering. IW carries FI instances over from previous segments which also carries over field properties like isIndexed etc. While having consistent field ordering per IW session appears to be important due to bulk merging stored fields etc. carrying over other properties might become problematic with Lucene's Codec support. Codecs that rely on consistent properties in FI will fail if FI properties are carried over. The DocValuesCodec (DocValuesBranch) for instance writes files per segment and field (using the field id within the file name). Yet, if a segment has no DocValues indexed in a particular segment but a previous segment in the same IW session had DocValues, FieldInfo#docValues will be true since those values are reused from previous segments. We already work around this "limitation" in SegmentInfo with properties like hasVectors or hasProx which is really something we should manage per Codec & Segment. Ideally FieldInfo would be managed per Segment and Codec such that its properties are valid per segment. It also seems to be necessary to bind FieldInfoS to SegmentInfo logically since its really just per segment metadata.

Time has evolved. The small income based laundry service can now be a profitable business in the present time. As people are now more likely to do professional activities, travelling or just spending time with families. Household chores are hard to manage. That’s why a need for professional washermans is the need of an hour. In the busy world, everyone wants all of their tasks to be completed with just a single click. And, when we have food delivery apps, taxi apps, even gifting apps, then why not an app that is a permanent solution for laundry chores? Undoubtedly with the modern lifestyle which is depending more on on-demand services. Hence, online On-Demand Laundry Application services are thriving in the market at the fastest pace. The on-demand laundry applications make people invest their time in some other activities rather than following the washing clothes routine. On an average, an individual spends almost 10-12 hours per month washing their untidy clothes, which can easily be done with a few taps on Cleanly that offer laundry and dry cleaning services. With just a single click, customers can schedule the pick up and return time as the technology used automates the complete logistics chain. Even the customers get to track the order in real-time. Not only this, the customers have multiple options for payment which is another benefit that is advantageous for customers and the Cleanly. With so much creativity and innovation, the other businesses like Cleanly are going to be a success for sure. But, how to create an on-demand laundry application that can make a difference amongst the competitors is a big thing to come across. So,further we will be discussing the necessary functions and a guide to smooth development of a laundry application like Cleanly. Why opt for on-demand laundry applications like Cleanly? The on-demand industry is at a boom during modern times because of which service providers are leveraging a lot. To get the clear picture, here is the information making you informed about the usage and benefits of on-demand laundry applications. 1. Quick-fix for bothersome chores Weekends or some weekdays are the time when individuals take the risk of lazing around or going out with friends instead of investing the time in the laundry room. The on-demand laundry apps help such people save time by picking up the laundry and delivering it right at your doorsteps. This will save a lot of customers’ time and also provide business to the app owners. 2. Complete control at a single place With the help of a mobile application, you’ll be able to manage all the tasks in a single place. As you’ll be able to manage smoothly, you’ll be able to focus more on growing your laundry business digitally and gaining high profits. Moreover, you’ll be able to spread a word about the business to any part of the world you wish to. Also, just like the demand of the customers is growing the same way, competition in the market for laundry and dry cleaning apps is at its peak. 3. With an app a laundry service can scale up enterprise If you are one of those entrepreneurs who is working hard to scale up your laundry service business, then a little bit of financial investment can do a lot for you, creating an enhanced and unique user experience, helping you make profits a bit easier. Business Models of On-demand Laundry Applications When you have giants competing in the market it gets hard to create a laundry and dry cleaning app. However, it is important to select the eligible business model depending on the requirements of your business before diving into the world of on-demand laundry application development. From the research we made, we concluded there are two types of on-demand business models opted by giants, also cleanly for their dry cleaning and Laundry services which includes: - Marketplace or Aggregator Model – In such types of models the app service providers do not have their own equipment to wash or dry clean your laundry. The model service providers and users have a platform where they can interact with each other. The operators of the apps handle the transactions, take the data depending on the preferences and locations. And the service providers registered to this platform interact with customers to arrange deliveries. - On-Site Model – This model is best for the owners who need both, an on-demand laundry application and a website for their laundry services. The clothes can easily be picked by the laundry providers and washed and delivered within 24 hours at the most affordable prices. Using this model, you get to offer your customers incredible service with speedy delivery and a full control. Hence, this model is beneficial for your business and your customers. Guide to Develop On-demand Laundry application If we talk about the development of an on-demand laundry app, then it is entirely dependent on the structuring and building of features of the app. Also, with this, there are some more features for which the application will be developed such as laundry app, admin panel, and laundry delivery app. To make the complete process simple, let us provide you with major on-demand laundry application development added to these models. 1. Customer Apps This customer app includes a definite number of features that enables customers to shape the entire process for the end-users. 2. Delivery Apps The usage of on-demand laundry apps for delivery work is quite different from the customer application. The laundry delivery application is basically for the service providers that receive the customer’s orders. It includes order status, operation control, delivery, and pickup. The main focus of the delivery is on reports, client data, order history, and statics. 3. Laundry Apps Laundry applications directly connect with the laundry delivery applications to add the information of the order that includes the service type, material details, order number, and status of delivery. This is just an outlay for the development of on-demand laundry applications that simplify your work making the owner understand the cost of the on-demand app for laundry service & delivery. Also, to move forward in the world of on-demand laundry apps it is important to know the tech stacks before developing the on-demand laundry apps. It’s a wrap! On-demand laundry apps are the best and most innovative way that enables customers to focus more on the services offered by the providers in the most convenient and diligent way. Being an owner focusing on the services might sometimes get hectic but the app helps in creating the best possible marketing strategy for the potential owners. However, to get the job done in the most diligent and easier way, hiring a mobile app development company with years of experience and expertise in the domain is the best choice. iTechnolabs understands your motive to provide the best laundry services to the end-users and help you in achieving the goal with ease. Don’t wait to grab the opportunity to grow and thrive in the market, Connect with us now!

to report «iusnews»; The Head of Hamas’ Political Bureau, Ismail Haniyeh said the Palestinian resistance movement "is nearing" a truce agreement with Israel, and that any ceasefire deal must be on the terms of Palestinian resistance. “We are close to reaching a deal on a truce,” Haniyeh said in a statement on Tuesday, presstv reported. Hamas, he added, had delivered its response to Qatari officials, who are brokering the indirect negotiations between the Gaza-based group and the Israeli regime. Meanwhile, senior Hamas official Izzat Al-Rishq told Al-Jazeera TV that the details of the deal will be released by Qatar and Egypt “in the coming hours”. The truce would last for multiple days and see the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza as part of a prisoner swap deal, he said. Rishq emphasized that any agreement is necessarily based on the conditions of the resistance. He further said Israel, especially the regime’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, had been obstructing the ceasefire talks. Tel Aviv was looking for negotiations under the continued aggression to break the will of the resistance, something which will never happen, according to the Hamas official. He also said that the truce deal was agreed upon by all the resistance brigades in Gaza through phone calls and they always stand “united whether it is on the battlefield or in making political decisions”. Two sources familiar with the truce talks told AFP that a tentative deal includes a five-day ceasefire on the ground and limits to Israeli aerial assaults over Southern Gaza in return for the release of between 50 and 100 Israelis held captive by Hamas and Islamic Jihad resistance group. Under the agreement, some 300 Palestinians are also expected to be freed from Israeli jails, among them women and children. Israel waged the bloody war on Gaza on October 7 after Hamas launched Operation Al-Aqsa Storm in the occupied territories. Since the start of the aggression, the Tel Aviv regime has killed 13,300 Palestinians, including 5,600 children and 3,550 women, and injured more than 31,000 others. It has also imposed a “complete siege” on the coastal sliver, cutting off fuel, electricity, food and water to the more than two million Palestinians living there.

What do you call a awesomely designed website with no content. Anything but a website. The fact of the matter is that the most important part of any website is the content. But the thing most likely to derail a website project this side of money is no content. A web designer might be able to create a nice-looking design and a developer create that site with dummy content, but it definitely cannot launch without any content about your business. So here’s how to make sure you don’t get caught in the content dilemma. Don’t forget about the content When you’re planning and laying out a new website, it is very easy to overlook all of the content that’s going to be needed for it. After all, you’re probably thinking about that cool design or fancy animation (spoiler alert: you don’t really need fancy animations on your site). But that is really all secondary to the content. In fact, I’ll argue that the content comes first. You need to think about the text on your website at all times. This is what your potential customers or clients are going to be looking for. Yes, it helps if it’s presented in a nice manner, but the substance of your text has to be there. I’d argue that this needs to be a central part of your planning stage. You should be thinking and planning through the text before you even contact a developer. You probably don’t need the exact content while you’re still planning, but you need to be thinking about it. Let’s Tell Your Story Every person and business has a story. Why did you start the business? How have you helped customers succeed? What have you done in the community? You have a lot of options for how to tell the stories of your business from copywriting to other text stories to photos and videos. Let’s find the best way to create content for your website to tell your business’ story.Let’s Create Content for Your Business Discuss it during discovery Once you’ve found a developer and are in that discovery stage, make sure you bring it up. Actually, if your developer brings it up before you do, you’ve found a good one. You need to discuss this with your developer before any actual work starts on the website. It’s a massive plus for a designer to be able to design with the exact content that you’ll have on your site. And developers really like to develop the site with the correct text. This way, the content stays on the top of everyone’s mind during the project. Everyone knows what it is and how it fits with the website. After all, it is the most important part of the website. Make sure everyone knows where the content is coming from and is on time And finally, before you leave the discovery and planning stages, make sure you and the developer know and agree to where the content is coming from and when it should be in the hands of the developer. This is going to save you from so many problems down the road. Most developers don’t really care where it’s coming from — whether it’s something you wrote or if you bring in a copywriter for it. I know for me, as someone who is also a writer, I offer copywriting services, though that obviously adds to the price of the project. But where the content is coming from is not quite as important as everyone knowing where it’s coming from and that it will be delivered by an agreed-upon date. There is nothing more frustrating as a developer than having to sit on a project and wait until it’s delivered. But planning that out and getting it in on time makes everything run so smooth. So when you’re planning out your website, make sure you don’t forget about the content. It’s just as important, if not more important, to the website as the design. And if you don’t think about it before the designing stage begins, it’s going to be a massive pain later on.

Jorge Navarro – Successful Horse Trainer Originally from Panama City, Panama, Jorge Navarro began his racing career working for his hard-working, honest step-father, Julian Canet. Jorge was recently indicted along with 26 others, including Jason Servis, disqualified winning trainer of the 2019 Kentucky Derby. Navarro trained super-star horse, XY Jet, until the horse dropped dead from a heart attack earlier this year at only 8 years old. Unthinkable. To win a race in horse racing is a wonderful experience. There’s nothing like the rush of crossing the finish line first, knowing you made all the right moves at the right time in order to prevail. The feeling is incomparable. Owners of race horses have worked hard, long hours to acquire their fortunes which enables them to buy race horses and hire a horse trainer to train them. The owners are undoubtedly Type A people, used to besting their competition, used to finishing first. Ya Gotta Win! In horse racing, if a trainer does not finish first very often, the trainer does not get to train any horses of note, because the owners want a trainer who wins in life, just like they do. This means the trainers who don’t win very often are not going to get better horses to train because they don’t know “how” to win. Their careers languish. It’s a vicious cycle, unless you can somehow break out of it… In the meantime, the owners look elsewhere for a trainer who wins. That’s the game, in a nutshell. You have to win. Same goes for being a jockey. If you don’t win, you don’t have a career. No one wants a jockey who doesn’t ride winners. This kind of pressure leads some trainers to find a different field of work. It leads others to cheat, at any and all costs. Roy Sedlacek, a life-long horse trainer, was banned for 5 years from horse racing in New York when his only two horses came up positive for a banned substance. Roy had only two horses at the time he was banned. He had fallen on hard times and needed to win. He did whatever it took to win: he cheated. Roy only had two horses. The horse racing “machine” didn’t need Roy and his two stinky horses in order to keep operating. If they banned Roy, they wouldn’t lose much, but they would set an example of what could happen if… This makes me wonder if these other fellas, and a couple of gals, will receive deservedly lengthy suspensions now, or will all this be swept under the already considerably bumpy rug that is, was, always has been, and always will be horse racing? Click here to read the article where Jorge Navarro says , “An owner of mine once said ‘How many times can you go in the cookie jar?’ Prophetic words, these days.

A business which has seen a significant fall in its gross receipts because of COVID-19, is also eligible to receive the ERC.Significant decline in gross revenues is defined as at least a 50% decline in a quarterly in 2020, or at least a 20% decline in a quarterly in 2021 when compared with the same quarter the previous year.

AUTHOR’S NOTE: Since this post was published, one story intended to appear in Three Billy Maddox Stories, “Green Bay Outsiders”, has subsequently grown into a novel. Three Billy Maddox Stories will no longer be published. (5/19/18) If you’ve been on my mailing list for any amount of time, you know I’ve been working on a collection of stories intended to be compiled into a book-length collection entitled Three Billy Maddox Stories. The second story in particular, “Green Bay Outsiders”, has been in progress for some time. I just wrapped up my first draft the other day, and the thing clocks in at over 300 pages. That’s novella-length material, boys and girls, which wasn’t exactly what I was intending. Still, the subsequent good news means that Three Billy Maddox Stories, when it’s finally published, will be a decent length. The first story, “Billy and Darla”, is around 70 pages and I just banged out the first 800 words of the third story, which is tentatively entitled “God’s Fiery Touch”. This final story won’t be as long as “Green Bay Outsiders”. I’ve written an outline and envision five major scenes to the story. So I know what’s going to happen. As a result, I am now in a position to begin some of the planning activities for the book launch. When will Three Billy Maddox Stories publish? I expect sometime in late fall. I’ll still relatively new to this game so I don’t want to commit too quickly to a specific date and end up losing my credibility if I can’t make the deadline. What I have done, though, is develop a book blurb, which is essentially sales copy I would post with the book cover on Amazon and other online retailers to interest readers. I’m including it here for the purpose of getting your opinion. What are your thoughts? Does this sound intriguing? Does it seem dull at all? Interesting? Please feel free to comment below this blog post. I’d love to hear your thoughts. Three Billy Maddox Stories: A Book Blurb A talented, young woman in Green Bay neglected by a boyfriend’s indecision. Another girlfriend intentionally abandoned for an affair with a fickle, though physically arresting, trouble-maker at a Motel 6 in Tucson, Arizona. The desire to leave behind family and hometown following the influence of an impressionable Vietnam Vet uncle. And a quest for spiritual fulfillment after the death of a younger brother on the southwestern border of the United States. These are the clumsy, wayward experiences of Billy Maddox and Carl Daniels, struggling through the final years of childhood on their individual and painful journeys to adulthood. Three Billy Maddox Stories, a collection of three long short stories, restores readers to the worlds of the two young men who first appeared as Border Patrol agents in Billy Maddox Takes His Shot (2016). Before taking on the “guns and greens” of law enforcement in Arizona’s bleak Sonoran Desert, both experienced hard coming-of-age moments fraught with poor if well-intentioned choices, struggles with personal uncertainty and devout searches for assurance from mentors and religion. Three Billy Maddox Stories opens with “Billy and Darla”, the dark tale of an impulsive, jealous beauty seeking empty entertainment for a night by convincing the adolescent Billy Maddox that his current girlfriend does not want to stay with him. Only when law enforcement gets involved does Billy see the danger of her vision. “God’s Fiery Touch” finds Billy, a year beforehand, pushed into participation in a weekend youth church retreat. Having experienced nothing of physical contact but the back of his father’s bitter hand as a result of the untimely death of Billy’s younger brother, Billy learns from other troubled teens that the human touch can heal as well as hurt. Finally, the centerpiece of the book is the novella-length “Green Bay Outsiders”, featuring 22-year-old Carl Daniels. Raised in the Allouez neighborhood of Green Bay, Wisconsin with the potential for a practical career and opportunity for family, Carl nevertheless finds himself impressed by the experience of his uncle, a Vietnam Vet who fought in Khe Sanh in 1968. The rewards of a suburban lifestyle seem safe and appealing, but Carl continues to struggle with a drive to leave love, family and home behind for the world of greater life experience. Fear. Questionable judgment. Survival of adulthood’s painful rites of passage. Three Billy Maddox Stories will soon be available for pre-order from Amazon and other online retailers. So there you have it: the book blurb for the upcoming short story collection, Three Billy Maddox Stories. Your thoughts? Feel free to comment below.

A new report from the U.S. Census Bureau shows a persistent racial gap in household computer and internet use. The racial gap has declined significantly since home computers and access to the Internet have become commonplace. But a significant racial gap remains. In 2015, 88 percent of non-Hispanic White households had a computer in the home. For Blacks, only 80.1 percent of all households had a home computer. Thus, nearly one in five Black households did not have a home computer. Some 81.7 percent of White households had a desktop or laptop computer compared to 65.1 percent of Black households. In 2015, 79.9 percent of all White households had a contract to provide Internet access. For Blacks, 64.9 percent had a subscription to an Internet service. For both Blacks and Whites, almost all of the Internet contracts were for broadband service. Previous research has shown than African Americans are more likely than Whites to use smartphones and in many cases this is their only access point to the Internet. But computer internet access in the home is viewed as more beneficial for studying, completing homework, applying for jobs, and searching for the right college or university to attend.

Starting in January 2019, historically Black Elizabeth City State University in North Carolina will offer its first online master of education degree program. The program will be 100 percent online and will offer two concentrations; one for teacher leaders, and another for initial certification. The total tuition will be less than $7,000, making it one of the most affordable online graduate teaching programs in North Carolina. The initial certification concentration is for individuals with bachelor’s degrees who want to pursue a career as an elementary school teacher. The concentration can also be used for obtaining middle school and high school certification if additional endorsements are added. The concentration in teacher leadership is for current classroom teachers with at least three years of experience. It will help teachers complete the National Board Certification, which in North Carolina provides a 12 percent salary increase. Additionally, an add-on endorsement for a curriculum and instruction specialist is also integrated within this degree and it allows teachers to advance their careers as central office administrators or in non-principal school leadership roles. “Initial response has been outstanding,” said Dr. Timothy Goodale, an assistant professor of education and director of graduate studies at Elizabeth City State University. “Over 50 potential students have initiated their admissions applications for the graduate program and there is over a 1,000 percent increase in the number of students that have accepted their place in the program, compared to the fall admissions cycle.”

The late Ernest J. Gaines, the celebrated author and long-time educator at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, is being honored by having his image appear on a U.S. postage stamp. The stamp will feature an oil painting based on a photograph that portrays a stoic, poised Gaines wearing his trademark beret. “Dr. Gaines’ stamp offers an impressive representation of the man I knew and admired, and it reminds me of the immeasurable grace, strength, and character he displayed throughout his life and through his words,” said Joseph Savoie, president of the University of Louisiana Lafayette. “More importantly, it acknowledges and affirms his belief in the inherent commonality of people and his unflinching courage in reminding us of the need to continually address some of the darkest chapters in our collective past.” Professor Gaines taught at the University of Louisiana Lafayette from 1983 to 2010. He was the author of nine novels and several short stories. Among Gaines’ most famous works are The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman, In My Father’s House, and A Lesson Before Dying. Ernest Gaines was born on the River Lake Plantation in Pointe Coupee Parish, Louisiana, where his ancestors had toiled as slaves. His parents were sharecroppers. At the age of 15, he moved to California because the local high school did not allow African Americans to enroll. Gaines was a graduate of San Francisco State University. He earned a master of fine arts degree at Stanford University. Professor Gaines died in 2019.

Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies, especially in our skin, muscles and bones. Both skin firmness and tensile strength depend on collagen synthesis. Our body’s collagen production naturally begins to slow down, meaning there’s a gradual loss in our facial collagen volume which leads to the appearance of signs of aging such as wrinkles and sagging skin. Our lifestyle also contributes to depleting collagen levels like eating a diet high in sugar, smoking and prolonged sun exposure. You reverse this skin loss process with the Collagen 360º treatment.

Windy conditions create extra challenge at NZ Jetsprint Championship Round 3 The Apex Wanaka Aquatrack lived up to its reputation as a test of skill as windy conditions caused many drivers to lose their way in what proved to be a difficult rotation. But in the finals of the Building King Superboats Sam Newdick put together a stunning run, his winning time 45.62 the fastest time of the day. Robert White was first out and set a pace with 46.512. Defending Champion Rob Coley was the final runner and his aggressive style saw him closing on Newdicks time. But a small error on a right hand turn lost him a second and he would finish 3rd. American Teenager River Rodgers won a tight battle in the LS class over defending Champion John Verry with just 0.4 seconds separating the two. The task was made easier for Rogers when Tim Edhouse had an engine cut but managed to restart, losing 5 seconds. Ollie Silverton was again the fastest in Group A and is once again looking favourite to take the title. And it was 3 from 3 for Group B driver Kris Rasmussen. The Championship now heads to Auckland, with Round 4 being held at the Meremere Jetsprint track on 10 February

Annalee is quick to answer when asked why she joined Working Solutions. “They know your name, you’re not a number. They care about your welfare and give you the training to succeed.” She got the tip to check out Working Solutions from an agent chat room at a competitor, where she worked. Four years later, Annalee finds fulfillment at Working Solutions, where her experience in healthcare, communications and consumer services is valued. And on occasion, her double associate degree in crops and soil management and in floral design management comes in handy. At Working Solutions, Annalee said project managers check on her and ask about the family. And she even exchanges Christmas gifts with other agents she’s never met. That support and caring carries through in her work with client customers. Customer service, she said, is all about listening and understanding. “When customers are upset, it’s not usually about the agent, but about their situation.” So she keeps her cool and offers comfort, giving back to them what’s she has already gotten herself.

Below is the text of Mr Major’s opening remarks at the arrival of the Canadian Prime Minister, Mr Mulroney, in London on Tuesday 11th May 1993. Can I just say what a pleasure it is to welcome the Prime Minister back to London. He is a very old and dear friend of the United Kingdom and he is always a very welcome guest indeed. We have had the opportunity this morning of looking at a whole range of things. We spent quite a time on Bosnia. Canada has had a very distinguished role in assisting in Bosnia; many of their troops have done an absolutely magnificent job over the last year or so and I was able to express my admiration to the Prime Minister for the work that they have done. We had the opportunity to discuss GATT, a whole range of bilateral matters, the Prime Minister’s recent visits to Russia and to Germany and a series of other international issues. What I am proposing to do this morning is leave the Prime Minister with you. I have some other meetings so I am going to leave him in your good hands. We are delighted to see him. I am looking forward to seeing him for dinner.

Colin, a fellow miles and points enthusiast is writing a guest post on a trip report of a Singapore Mileage Run. The posts are as follows: Guest Trip Report – Singapore Mileage Run – Delta – Singapore to Tokyo Date: December 7, 2015 Flight: Delta 616 From: Singapore – SIN To: Tokyo – NRT Because of my complicated routing for this run I was unable to print a boarding pass in advance and was required to get one at the Delta counter in the airport, which opened at 4:30AM I believe it was. They checked my passport and printed up all my boarding passed, after which i returned to my room at the transit hotel to wait out the next hour before boarding. The security process was very quick, the flight was maybe 2/3 full. Boarding began on time. When I reached the front of the line the gate agent bowed and thanked me for being a Diamond and welcomed me on the airplane. The aircraft was a 763-300 and the Delta One cabin was configured in a 1-2-1 setup. My seat was 9B. The boarding process was smooth, I took my seat quickly and actually dozed off for a few min, my bodies internal clock was so far off at this point I couldn’t remember what day it was. Because of this I really didnt document much other then my quick meal. I relaxed in the seat and napped most of the trip. Watched a little tv on my iPad. Curiously the flight seemed to have WiFi but it wasnt functional, so i received 7,500 miles as compensation. Kinda frustrating when I had purchased the international GoGo pass for this trip at a cost of $80. Shortly before landing the flight attendants came around and distributed a hot towel and cleaned up the cabin. Overall the flight was extremely unremarkable, food and hard product was just fine, but nothing exceptional.

Email marketing has become an integral part of modern business strategies, with companies relying on bulk email campaigns to reach a large audience efficiently. However, blindly sending out mass emails without understanding how they perform can be a waste of valuable resources. This is where understanding email analytics comes into play, as it allows businesses to gain valuable insights into the effectiveness of their bulk email campaigns. Email analytics refers to the process of analyzing data from email campaigns to better understand recipient behavior and engagement. By examining metrics such as open rates, click-through rates, and conversion rates, businesses can gauge the success of their email campaigns and identify areas for improvement. For instance, an attention-grabbing fact reveals that personalized emails have been found to deliver six times higher transaction rates compared to generic emails. This highlights the importance of utilizing email analytics to tailor content and improve campaign performance. Understanding the history of email analytics provides valuable context for its current significance. Initially, email marketing campaigns relied on basic metrics like open rates and click-through rates to measure success. Today, however, advancements in technology have enabled marketers to delve deeper into recipient behavior. With sophisticated tracking tools and algorithms, businesses can track user interactions within emails, including the amount of time spent on each section and the subsequent actions taken. One compelling statistic related to email analytics is that segmented and targeted emails generate 58% of all revenue. This emphasizes the potential impact of understanding email analytics, as it allows businesses to segment their audience and tailor their messaging accordingly. By leveraging data on subscriber preferences and behavior, marketers can create personalized content that resonates with recipients, leading to increased engagement and higher conversion rates. Incorporating an engaging element, consider this scenario: a business owner launches a new product and sends out a bulk email campaign to notify customers. By analyzing email analytics, the business owner discovers that the email’s subject line had a low open rate. With this information, they can experiment with different subject lines and observe their impact on open rates. This relatable solution highlights how understanding email analytics empowers businesses to make data-driven decisions, ultimately improving the effectiveness of their bulk email campaigns. In conclusion, understanding email analytics holds immense value for businesses engaging in bulk email campaigns. With the ability to measure recipient behavior and engagement, companies can optimize their campaigns, increase open and click-through rates, and ultimately drive conversions. By continuously analyzing email analytics and making data-driven decisions, businesses can refine their email marketing strategies, ensuring that their messages resonate with recipients effectively. How Can Understanding Email Analytics Improve Your Bulk Email Campaigns? Email analytics play a crucial role in optimizing and enhancing the effectiveness of your bulk email campaigns. By analyzing the data and insights provided by email analytics, you gain a clearer understanding of how your emails are performing and can make informed decisions to improve future campaigns. In this article, we will delve into the various aspects of email analytics, including open rates, click-through rates, bounce rates, and conversion rates. We will discuss how these metrics can help you identify areas of improvement, refine your email content, and ultimately achieve better results in your bulk email campaigns. So, let’s explore the power of email analytics and unlock the potential for success in your email marketing efforts. Understanding Email Analytics for Better Bulk Email Campaigns When it comes to running successful bulk email campaigns, understanding email analytics is crucial. By delving into the data provided by analytics tools, marketers can gain valuable insights that can help them optimize their campaigns, improve engagement, and achieve maximum impact. In this article, we will explore the key aspects of email analytics and how they can be utilized to enhance the efficacy of bulk email campaigns. 1. Tracking Open Rates One of the most important metrics in email analytics is the open rate. This metric indicates the percentage of recipients who open the emails they receive. By tracking open rates, marketers can gauge the effectiveness of their subject lines, email design, and timing. To achieve maximum impact, it is essential to analyze the open rates of different email campaigns. This analysis helps identify patterns and trends that can inform future campaign strategies. For example, if emails sent in the evening tend to have higher open rates compared to those sent in the morning, it may be worthwhile to adjust the timing of future campaigns accordingly. 2. Monitoring Click-Through Rates (CTRs) Another crucial aspect of email analytics is monitoring the click-through rates (CTRs). CTRs represent the percentage of recipients who click on links or call-to-action buttons within the email. This metric helps measure the effectiveness of the email content and the overall campaign strategy. By closely monitoring CTRs, marketers can identify the elements of their emails that resonate most with recipients. It could be a compelling headline, a well-placed call-to-action button, or engaging visual content. Understanding these preferences allows marketers to tailor future campaigns towards higher CTRs and better engagement. 3. Analyzing Bounce Rates Bounce rates indicate the percentage of emails that were not delivered to the intended recipients. There are two types of bounces: hard bounces and soft bounces. A hard bounce occurs when an email is rejected permanently due to factors like invalid email addresses, while a soft bounce is a temporary failure to deliver the email. Analyzing bounce rates is vital as it provides insights into the quality of the email list. A high bounce rate may indicate issues with the quality of the email addresses or problems with the email service provider. By regularly monitoring bounce rates, marketers can ensure that their email lists are clean and up-to-date, contributing to improved campaign results. 4. Utilizing Conversion Rates Conversion rates measure the percentage of recipients who take the desired action after opening and engaging with the email. This action could vary depending on the goal of the campaign, such as making a purchase, signing up for a newsletter, or downloading a resource. By analyzing conversion rates, marketers can assess the success of their email campaigns in achieving the desired outcomes. Understanding the factors that contribute to higher conversion rates allows for targeted improvements in email content, design, and overall campaign strategy. 5. Incorporating A/B Testing A/B testing involves creating two versions of an email, with small variations in elements like subject lines, layouts, or call-to-action buttons. These versions are then sent to different segments of the email list to determine which performs better in terms of open rates, CTRs, and conversions. By incorporating A/B testing, marketers can gather data-driven insights to optimize their email campaigns effectively. It enables them to identify the most effective elements and strategies that resonate with their target audience, ultimately leading to better bulk email campaigns. From Data to Success In summary, understanding email analytics is crucial for running successful bulk email campaigns. By tracking open rates, monitoring click-through rates, analyzing bounce rates, utilizing conversion rates, and incorporating A/B testing, marketers can optimize their campaigns for maximum impact. In fact, according to recent statistics, businesses that make use of email analytics see a 42% increase in email marketing return on investment. This demonstrates the significant impact that understanding and leveraging email analytics can have on the success of bulk email campaigns. FAQs for Understanding Email Analytics for Better Bulk Email Campaigns 1. What is email analytics and why is it important for bulk email campaigns? Email analytics refers to the measurement and analysis of data related to email campaigns. It provides insights into the performance, engagement, and effectiveness of your email marketing efforts. Data such as open rates, click-through rates, bounce rates, and conversions can help you make informed decisions to optimize your bulk email campaigns for better results. 2.

By analyzing this data, you can identify areas for improvement, such as optimizing subject lines, content, or call-to-action buttons. It helps you tailor your campaigns to better resonate with your audience, increase engagement, and achieve higher conversion rates. 3. What are some important email analytics metrics to monitor? Key email analytics metrics to monitor include open rates, click-through rates, bounce rates, unsubscribe rates, conversion rates, and the number of spam complaints. These metrics provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of your subject lines, content, design, and overall campaign performance. 4. How can I track email analytics for my bulk email campaigns? You can track email analytics by using email marketing software or tools that provide detailed reporting and analytics features. These platforms often generate reports showcasing the metrics mentioned earlier, allowing you to monitor and analyze the performance of your bulk email campaigns easily. 5. What should I do if my open rates are low? If your open rates are low, consider optimizing your subject lines to make them more compelling and personalized. A/B testing different subject lines can help you identify what works best for your audience. Additionally, ensure that your emails are being delivered to recipients’ primary inboxes rather than spam folders. Engaging and relevant content can also increase open rates. 6. How can I improve my click-through rates? To improve click-through rates, focus on creating engaging and relevant content that encourages readers to take action. Use clear and compelling calls-to-action (CTAs) and ensure they are prominently displayed. Testing different CTAs, button placement, and email designs can also help improve click-through rates. 7. Should I be concerned about bounce rates? Bounce rates can indicate that your emails are not reaching their intended recipients due to invalid email addresses or other issues. It’s essential to monitor bounce rates and regularly clean your email list by removing invalid or inactive addresses. A high bounce rate can negatively impact your sender reputation and deliverability rate. 8. How can I reduce unsubscribe rates? To reduce unsubscribe rates, focus on delivering valuable content that aligns with your subscribers’ interests. Segmenting your email list and targeting specific groups with personalized content can help increase relevancy. Additionally, ensure that the frequency of your emails is appropriate for your audience and provide easy-to-use unsubscribe options to maintain transparency and comply with email marketing regulations. 9. Can email analytics help me measure ROI for my bulk email campaigns? Yes, email analytics can provide insights into the ROI of your bulk email campaigns. By tracking conversion rates and attributing them to specific email campaigns, you can calculate the revenue generated or other desired outcomes. Understanding the ROI helps you determine the effectiveness of your email marketing efforts and allocate resources accordingly. 10. Are there any legal considerations when using email analytics for bulk email campaigns? Yes, there are legal considerations when using email analytics for bulk email campaigns. It is crucial to comply with applicable data protection and privacy laws. Ensure that you have obtained proper consent from your subscribers and provide them with options to manage their preferences or unsubscribe. Familiarize yourself with relevant regulations, such as the CAN-SPAM Act (in the US) or the GDPR (in the EU), to ensure compliance. Timing is a crucial factor in running successful bulk email campaigns. From the analysis of email analytics, it is evident that the timing of sending emails directly impacts their open and click-through rates. The article discussed several key insights related to timing that can help optimize bulk email campaigns. Firstly, it highlighted the importance of understanding the target audience and tailoring the email distribution according to their specific time zones. By syncing the delivery of emails with the recipients’ local time, higher engagement rates can be achieved. Moreover, the article emphasized the significance of avoiding peak hours when sending bulk emails, as it can lead to high competition for attention in the recipients’ inboxes. Furthermore, the article shed light on the effectiveness of scheduling emails for weekdays, particularly Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. These days were found to have higher open and click-through rates compared to weekends or Mondays. Additionally, it stressed the value of testing different timing strategies and analyzing the results to fine-tune the email delivery schedule for optimal performance. In conclusion, understanding email analytics and leveraging insights related to timing can greatly enhance the success of bulk email campaigns. By considering factors such as recipients’ time zones, avoiding peak hours, and strategically scheduling emails on weekdays, marketers can increase engagement rates and achieve their campaign objectives effectively.

If someone wins the lottery or gets something you wish you had, would you feel jealous of them? No, you wouldn’t. If you wish you had something someone else did, you would envy them, which is different from jealousy. Today people use the terms interchangeably, but they describe distinct feelings. I only learned the difference a few years ago when someone pointed it out to me. Since then I’ve become more aware of both emotions and they create fewer problems. That’s the value of awareness. The more accurately you understand your motivations and emotions, the greater your emotional awareness and the more you can manage your life. I’m no expert on the emotions, but I’ve experienced them like anyone and I’ve developed skills to handle them. What is envy? Envy is what you feel when you wish you had something you don’t. For example, you envy someone who has something you don’t. Depending on your tastes, you might envy someone who drives a nicer car than yours. What is jealousy? Jealousy is what you feel when you have something and you’re afraid of losing it. For example, if you have a nice car, you might be jealous of it if you were afraid of losing it or of it getting scratched. A spouse can be jealous if they think their spouse might leave them. Jealousy is a form of neediness that leads people to try to control people they feel jealous of, famously people they feel like they love. It’s close to the opposite of confidence. Why does the difference matter? If you only think of jealousy to mean envy, you won’t sense the different feelings and you won’t know how to solve jealousy-related problems. If you think jealousy means envy, when you feel jealous of something, you might not realize your neediness, especially if you associate your jealousy with caring. If you’re worried your nice car might get scratched or stolen, that’s jealousy, and it leads to you not enjoying it. Feeling jealousy doesn’t mean you care about your car more than someone who doesn’t feel jealousy. It means you care for it and feel insecure and needy. If you’re worried your partner might leave you, that’s jealousy too. As with the car, feeling jealous of someone doesn’t mean you care about your partner more than if you didn’t feel jealousy, it means you also feel insecure and needy. Since neediness repels people, your jealousy will tend to push that person away from you. Without your jealousy, they might not move away. How do I feel less jealousy? I’ve found awareness is the best starting point, so I consider distinguishing it from envy and learning more about the emotion the best start. Awareness alone will probably lead to many instances of jealousy to dissipate. Next is to develop skills of resilience, which build confidence. The more you recover from losses and find that the loss wasn’t as bad as you expected, or that you could build from it to improve yourself, the less you’ll feel jealousy. Next is to expand on those skills. Allow yourself to enjoy things you once feared you might lose. If the car gets scratched, how bad is that? Give your partner freedom to do what they want. They’ll be more likely to stay with you without your neediness. You’ll develop more confidence with each experience. I don’t recommend protecting yourself from getting hurt as much as you can, or at least I found that strategy hurt my life. As I wrote in “Leadership, personal development, choosing to care, and emotional pain,” I’ve found choosing to care means you will get hurt. Avoiding getting hurt means choosing not to care as much as you would otherwise, which I find dulls life. Again, I find developing skills of resilience—handling problems, not preventing every single one of them—achieves everything protecting yourself does without the loss of excitement, joy, caring, passion, and what we want.

Anyone who eats food I cook hears me unable to contain how much I love it. I probably eat to more satisfaction than anyone I know. I feel full, even stuffed, after every meal, yet I eat fewer calories. My food tastes sweeter than ever, yet I eat less sugar. I pay less than ever for my food. The source? My three CSAs and my food coop. They are the most amazing sources of food in Manhattan. I recommend them all. If you want the story why I belong to three, ask. In the meantime, I’m going to share them so anyone looking for CSAs anywhere near New York City will know to join them. My first CSA: Stoneledge Farm Their vegetables are among the best I’ve tasted. They tell me it’s because geologically the farm was once under a lake that laid down fertile sediment. The family of farmers is friendly. They’ve operated as a CSA for over 20 years. Everyone involved with it is friendly. I volunteer to work with them. My second CSA: Norwich Meadows Farm They also deliver all over, as listed here. In the winter, when green vegetables are hard to come by, they bring light and joy. I don’t know any other way to put it. They bring spring greens before the farmers market has them. My third CSA: Local Roots Local Roots has the most options. It took longer to figure out their site, but take the time. I ordered their zero food waste option to get “ugly” vegetables stores don’t select. Frankly, I couldn’t tell any difference. Since I ordered from them in the winter, I was delighted to find they sourced from a hydroponic and indoor farms, meaning fresh greens in the middle of winter not shipped across the country. I’ve also met founder Wen-Jay, who is delightful and a passionate entrepreneur who builds community with food based events. Bulk Foods: 4th Street Food Coop Bulk foods for dried beans, grains, nuts, spices, tamari sauce, and so on is the last piece of the puzzle. 4th Street Food Coop provides all I need. I joined as a non-working member, but plan to work because everyone there is so friendly. Their spices are delicious and cheap. I bring my own bags and load up a few times a month on beans, grains, etc. 4th Street also sells fresh fruit and vegetables, so sometimes I buy them there, but I’m usually full from the CSAs. 4th Street Coop makes shopping at corporate supermarkets feel corporate and sterile. Is that what you want to associate with your food? I like friendly and community-based. If you want to save money, eat delicious, support your community, and eat more and if you want to look like I do after eating all you can every meal of every day, I recommend any and all of where I get my food. If you don’t live near New York City, I recommend finding your local CSAs and coops. Read my weekly newsletter On initiative, leadership, the environment, and burpees

By Paulette Meier in Come Join The Circle: Lessons In Peacemaking by Paulette Meier ©1999 Paulette Meier Everybody needs to hear positive things about themselves. Simple recognition from friends and peers can make a day go right. Listeners can easily add their own good thoughts to the many real-life affirmations offered here. I like the way you smile at me when I walk in through the door. I like the way you lend a hand like when you ask your friends, "Hey watcha' fightin' for?" I like the way you laugh and giggle when I'm telling a new joke. I like the way you cheer friends on when you're turnin' the jump rope. Chorus: Affirmations, We need to hear good things about us every day. Affirmations, can help the blues go away. Affirmations, get a put up and take a bow. Affirmations, and let's end those put downs now! I like the way your eyes sparkle when you're telling us somethin' new. I like the way your face lights up when you're sister comes in the room. I like the way you use your hands, they paint pictures, when you talk. I like the way your feet fly, when Daddy says "Let's take the dog for a walk." I like the way you take a stand when somethin' happens that you know is not right. I like the way you figure it out, 'stead of starting a big ol' fight. I like the way you cry it out, when you're feeling sad and blue. I like the way you show you care, when I'm feeling that way too. from Come Join the Circle: Lessonsongs For Peacemaking, released December 10, 2001 Our songs for children about peace and justice, resolving conflicts, and celebrating our global family are more important than ever in these troubled times.
