Art and museum curators are professionals at putting together exhibits. Basically, what a curator does is to show you the art the way she sees it: underlying themes, ideas, context, relationships. In social media, content curation is slightly different: "Content curation is the process of sorting through the vast amounts of content on the web and presenting it in a meaningful and organized way around a specific theme.
GEM mosquito control. This method of mosquito control involves the use of water containers inside/outside households as well as other buildings, regularly replaced to kill mosquito larvae. It is well known that mosquitoes lay eggs in water where ever it be.

It just may be the most frequent "Are we normal??" question we get. How often should we send email? Or direct mail? Your answer depends on your organization, but based on our 2014 Nonprofit Communications Trends Report, we can tell you what most other organizations are doing.
I have this nagging feeling of an elephant in the room - in the room of impact investing, I mean. On the one hand, we've made tons of progress. I don't just mean progress in terms of more funds being raised and more mainstream attention - though those are both good things.
The GSMA has just published a report titled, " Unlocking the Potential: Women and Mobile Financial Services in Emerging Markets," which provides a very detailed look into how women are using Mobile Financial Services (MFS) and the challenges and learnings from their study.
In January 2013, the Communities of Impact kicked off with a retreat at Microsoft Headquarters in Redmond, WA. While there, we held a Failfaire-style conversation about times when our best-laid plans went awry. For one participant, this was a chance to reflect on how a massive project taught him that "there really is no such thing as an end result."

CAPE VERDE] The first day of the inaugural Africa Innovation Summit featured a plenary session on Best Practices in Innovation policymaking. It was a sensible place to start. But some of us have been talking about innovation in Africa for a long time.
Should business play a role in supporting public institutions, and perhaps addressing the world's social challenges? When Harvard Professor Rebecca Henderson asked her colleagues and business executives that question over the last few years, the reaction was often rather skeptical. Many believe this is not what business does or should do, Henderson said.
Michael Vcelik - February 12, 2014Budgets are under constant pressure everywhere. This is especially true in the nonprofit sector where revenue sources from grants, donors, investment income, and federal, state and local agencies can vary greatly from year-to-year.
Often we hear great quotes capturing the essence of the message. They are inspiring! They remind us of the important reasons why we work for charity and how we should do it, or how best practice would describe it... In December I attended The Annual Lectures, where an awesome line-up of speakers ...
A few weeks ago, Facebook announced that it has changed it's algorithm. As if Facebook for nonprofits wasn't challenging enough. Understanding the new changes is essential for successful nonprofit Faccebook social media strategy. Facebook's announcement highlights how its new changes - especially to the Facebook mobile app - give Facebook a more Twitter-like feel, and give preference to quality links and content.
Evidence Facebook's revenue is based on fake likes. My first vid on the problem with Facebook: http://bit.ly/1dXudqY I know first-hand that Facebook's advertising model is deeply flawed. When I paid to promote my page I gained 80,000 followers in developing countries who didn't care about Veritasium (but I wasn't aware of this at the time).

Builder confidence for newly built, single-family homes declined in April by three points to 25, according to the National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index, released today. This is the first time in seven months that the confidence rating has declined. LotNetwork.com looks at the trends behind the numbers: It's not surprising to see some decline in builder confidence after six straight months of a fairly swift build-up in confidence. There are certainly signs of recovery and optimism in the market, but many consumers and builders are hesitant and cautious about the challenges that still exist in the…Read more

In our area of the country, mosquitoes and no-see-ums own the outdoors and my ever-loving wife, "Arbutus" (not her real name, but I suspect you knew that already), has always wanted a screen porch. Our house has a nice big deck but no screens and, as much as I like a challenge, it is not a trivial matter to put a roof over the deck in order to screen it in. Sometimes it is just easier to buy another house that already has the screen porch.
And that is what we did.
Buy a beach house and get a screen porch for free!
The beach house has many nice features but the screen porch overlooking the lagoon clinched the deal for Arbutus. (She likes it when I call her "Beautie.") I knew she wouldn't be happy if I didn't buy that beach house. And if Beautie ain't happy then ain't nobody happy.
What comes to your mind when you hear the word "lagoon"? If you said mosquitoes you are on the right track. The real bugaboo (a rather apt word) is the unseen world of little biting insects commonly called no-see-ums.
They can get through standard screens so you might be sitting in a lovely screened-in porch but feel a little itchy all over and can't see what is doing it or how they got in. A demented raccoon provided the final straw when it ripped holes in the porch screening. (See "How to replace a torn door screen." ) It's a good thing my ever-loving wife didn't catch that varmint or we would have had our own "Beautie and the Beast" on the big screen.
Typical screen material is 18 x 18, which means there are 18 wires per inch both horizontally and vertically. Although the local Lowe's didn't have any in stock, I found a 8′ x 100′ roll of 20 x 20 no-see-um screening online.
Is unscreen a word?
I pried off the molding that covered the staples holding the screen and then ripped off the old material. I either pulled or hammered down any staples that were sticking up but left the rest of them. For good measure I pulled a wallpaper scraper across them to cut off any rogue staples. They were RUSTY and broke off easily.
There were zillions of staples because you put one in about every inch. Being a quick study, I put my Math degree to work and figured out that putting that many staples in by hand was not how I wanted to spend the remainder of my declining years. A pneumatic stapler goes for about $25, which might be the steal of the century.
I also ordered some stainless steel staples (no rusting!) to go with it.
Cut, staple, repeat
The screens were about 8½' tall so I put a piece of tape next to the crack between the deck boards about 8½' from a wall and used that to measure and cut the screening by running a utility knife in the crack between the boards.
Our son, Graham (his real name), helped hold the screen tight while I stapled it starting in the top right corner and working left and down. It is important to pull the screen really tight as you staple it to avoid creases and Graham did a great job.
I mitered some vinyl molding (no rotting or peeling!) and used the finish nail gun to install it around the perimeter.
Second shift
We had gotten only one of the two sides done when Graham said he "had to leave." I choose to believe that he had a legitimate excuse as opposed to getting tired of the project.
Fortunately, our son-in-law, "Jim" (that might be his real name), came a couple of weeks later to help me finish. He already knew all about pneumatic staplers and we did the remaining side and around the door in two government-days, which is a total of about 8 hours in real life. If you get a chance to pick a son-in-law, pick one like Jim. You'll be glad you did.
The scaffolding, which I bought at the start of this project, made it infinitely easier than working off of ladders.
Those pesky insects still have another way to get in the porch: through the floor cracks.
I have plenty of screening left to do the underside of the floor but I think I'll screen all of the sides of the carport under the porch so that the whole area is protected from mosquitoes and sundry other nuisances.
That's a project for another day. Until then I'll have to rely on the polar vortex to beat back those little buggers. You have to pick your battles. Beautie taught me that.

The Law of Attraction has taken on a new spin. First, women inserted glitter pills into their vaginas, and now, the latest odd news involves an out-the-box method of attracting men by using ones' own vaginal fluid as a sneaky lure.
It's normal for humans to want to look good and appeal to a potential mate. As the Mirror points out, conventional methods of doing so involve a multiplicity of things, including changing ones' hairstyle, losing weight with diet and exercise, undergoing cosmetic surgery, hitting the club scene, and even joining a matchmaker website.
However, one woman took things to another level by using her "vaginal fluid perfume" to smell appealing to men. And yes — you guessed it — her experiment reportedly worked.
The rather crass trial using bodily fluids to speed along the laws of attraction began when Allison Ramirez's friend called her about a new technique that uses vaginal fluids to find the perfect mate. Skeptical at first, Ramirez reasoned it was wiser and rational to use store-bought perfumes.
Allison knew that smells play an important role in sex and attraction. Therefore, she delved into the science behind the technique by reading two books related to the experiment: Aphrodisiacs by Linda Louisa Dell and The Joy of Sex by Dr. Alex Comfort.
Allison learned that for the technique to work, "you basically just have to stick a finger down there and then use said finger to dab your 'natural perfume' on your pulse points."
As the report says, women of the night or concubines back in the Medieval days of European history knew about the trick to using their own vaginal fluids to lure men. Like a conventional perfume, they applied the natural pheromone or — as Ramirez described it — "vagina juice" on their chests and behind their ears and necks. She explained her experience with the method.
"I used a long Q-tip to basically extract some residue from my vagina in order to use it for my perfume.
"Because bodily fluids may not 'hold up,' I decided that my best bet was to dip this Q-tip — saturate it, really — in the perfume I'd created, dab it on my pulse points (neck, wrists, cleavage) and then hit the town in order to see what the results would be."
The results were significant. Allison said she conducted the experiment with an old acquaintance, and they "ended up sharing a drunken kiss." On a separate date with another gentleman, Ramirez said that while nothing "naughty" happened, he did reach out to her for another date and said he had a great time.
On the vaginal glitter pills mentioned earlier, sources in July reported that women began practicing a novel method that claims to "add a sparkle and flavor to your natural vaginal fluids to make the experience of lovemaking that much more fun and enjoyable for you and your partner." Based on the website that offers the pills for sale, the capsules contain "passion dust" that requires one hour to dissolve before having sexual relations.
However, medical experts cautioned women against the practice, saying that the use of glitter pills it puts their health at risk. Dr. Jen Gunter, a gynecologist based in San Francisco, said the "glitter-bombing" of a woman's vaginal canal could lead to "uncomfortable side effects that definitely won't make lovemaking 'more fun and enjoyable.'" Some of the potential conditions that can develop from inserting glitter pills are vaginal contact dermatitis and a "nasty inflammatory" discharge.
Share your thoughts below about the use of vaginal fluid to attract a man. Is it here to stay or will it fade to black like many other fads?

Set in the 1980s Perth suburbs, Ben Young's Hounds of Love centers on a sadistic husband and wife duo, John and Evelyn White (Stephen Curry and Emma Booth), who kidnap, torture, and murder young high school girls. Vicki (Ashleigh Cummings) is the White's latest quarry. Drugged and restrained to a bed she desperately searches for an escape while her separated parents search for her.
If that cheery lede is nearly enough to send you packing, know that Young's film has much more up its sleeve than the blunt force of the plot. The setup, down to the era, is a riff on the true crime case of Paul Bernardo who, with his wife, committed the "Schoolgirl Killer" murders in and around Toronto and Scarborough, Canada. Bernardo also serially raped women in the late 1980s through the early 1990s, an insinuation applicable to John in the film. In the hands of a lesser filmmaker the harrowing setup and ticking clock propulsion would be adequate. Lurid brutality is certainly on display here but Young carefully crafts a film that foregrounds character relationships ahead of the viscerally unsettling material.
From the opening moments of Hounds of Love we know to be in the hands of a confident, thoughtful voice. The camera drifts across a sports field as a group of girls play volleyball. Depicted in slow motion, the camera cuts to close-ups of their muscles flexing as sweat beads on their bodies and a brooding score from Dan Luscombe fills the soundtrack. We then cut to Evelyn and John who sit in their car watching. It's an instance that both recalls DePalma's Carrie in its form but also puts us into the objectifying psychologies of the couple. We're both implicated and detached. It's a foundational sequence that signals not just technical prowess but a careful attention to mood, tone, and theme.
Young, who cut his teeth on a number of television series, depicts a sweltering environment that revels in these contrasts. Set during Christmas, the film highlights the discordant notion of being carefree on holiday and the setting's southern hemisphere climate. Much like Killing Ground from this year, the holiday's northern origins and iconography exist in stark contrast to the tropical, seaside landscape engendering a foundational unease that permeates the atmosphere.
These contrasts come to a forefront in John and Evelyn's grotesque domestic routine. Rather than leave these two people as one-note psychopaths, Young reveals a codependency that has become increasingly twisted by John's emotional and physical abuse of Evelyn who has a deep past with which she has not reconciled. Vicki begins to wedge herself between the couple, calling Evelyn to suspect John's true motivations. By foiling this dynamic in Vicki's separated parents, who have their own resentments, the film becomes an exploration of the fallout from fractured relationships within traditional domestic frameworks.
Hounds of Love may offer some of the genre's grimmest subject matter but it's Young's ability to craft a unique tone while populating the film with characters we can empathize with that keep it from being a shock-filled slog. By the time the finale offers a sort of reconciliation, the resulting catharsis rings true for both victim and perpetrator.

Many people these days are opting to skip the legal step of getting married. Even when these couples move in together and start a life that is akin to a married couple, they choose to just stay committed instead of getting married.
There are many reasons why people do this. Maybe someone will lose financial assistance if he or she gets married or perhaps he or she just doesn't want to have to deal with being married in the eyes of the government. If you are in a committed relationship and don't want to get married but are choosing to live together, make sure that you take steps to protect your finances.
Can we create a prenuptial-type of agreement?
While you can't draw up a prenuptial agreement if you aren't going to get married, you can still craft an agreement that details financial matters. Much like you would if you had a roommate, you could write a contract about what bills each person is responsible for paying. This could be a percentage-based deal or it could be that one person pays specific bills and other person pays the remaining bills.
What if we opt to buy a home together?
If you choose to buy a home together, you should have an agreement about who will get the house if your relationship ends. You should also do this for cars and other assets you purchase together.
What if we are going to have a child?
You should create a parenting plan that outlines how the children will be raised. This might be hard to plan, but do your best so that you can have the document to fall back on if issues come up with raising the child.
Ultimately, the key to being in a relationship like this is to make sure that you have your bases covered if something goes wrong. Making plans now can help you later.

When I was in Colombia last month, my photography team took on the challenge of photographing portraits for an entire orphanage full of adorable and energetic children. We had about 20 minutes one morning to photograph all 60 or so kids. There would be no other opportunity to do so again, so we had to be spot on the first time.
Envision: On location. 5 photographers. 60 kids.
We had about 15 minutes to organize and prepare. Ultimately we wanted all the photos to have a cohesive but creative series so the orphanage could use them later. Here is the workflow we developed for a smooth and organized portrait shoot.
The first backdrop we chose was the side of a distressed wood building. The warmer tones were pretty, but after some discussion, we decided that the building was not true to "Colombia" – the audience may think the photos were from any rural place in the world. To make it more unique to Colombia, we chose a path between two buildings, with Colombian bush in the background.
Sunlight is known to change within just a few minutes. While we didn't want every portrait to look cookie cutter, we did want the lighting to be unified across all the portraits. We could have had the children stand in the direct light, but settled on the shade cast from the side of a building. We also added a reflector to even out the skin tones and capture beautiful catch lights.
To fly through a set of portraits without making them all the same, have a list of poses you can draw from. With 12 or so number of poses, you can change up little details to make each pose unique – such as how a hand is placed or the angle of the head.
Even though multiple photographers were shooting, we wanted all the portraits to have a unity about them so there was not a distinction between photographers. We placed all the cameras on the same settings to achieve these results.
The most challenging part of a speed shoot is having the ability to make every child smile in a matter of seconds. The person who is the most engaging and entertaining ought to be the one directing the child's attention. Genuine smiles are always the best for portraits, but it's not always easy to capture.
Our speed shoot was a smashing success. Every element we worked through in the organization ultimately yielded portraits of each child that were beautiful and authentic. I for one, and more than pleased with the results.

The Christ Hymn
Philippians 2:1-13 Commentary
by Amy G. Oden
It's a pretty radical idea -- God descending into human flesh.
God chooses downward mobility against all expectations of a deity. If folks have spent a lot of time in church, it's likely they are used to the idea of God becoming human. It can be the wallpaper of our faith -- all around us and yet just sort of there in the background. These verses from Philippians 2 call us to see -- again, maybe for the first time -- how radical this God is and what that means for our lives.
In the ancient world, a god who was "born in human likeness" (verse 7) was a self-demoting God, hardly the sort of God useful for human life. It's one thing for Zeus to become human for a day to play tricks, but it's quite another for the God of the universe to "empty himself taking the form of a slave" (verse 7), that is, to take on flesh, become fully human, suffer and die. Who needs a God like that? This God doesn't sound like a "winner," like a mighty deity who comes to the aid of powerless humans or like a super kick-butt-and-take-names ...

The Informer: Paws for thought, pandemic aside, positive news arrives
It might not have been the most pressing issue Australia Community Media journalists reported on this weekend but let's paws for thought (sorry).
Craig the husky, guided by owner Jordan Taylor, completed a 350 kilometre walk from Sydney to Canberra on Saturday, proving positive news can still come during a pandemic.
Mr Taylor raised more than US$6000 at an orphanage in Tanzania, when travel restrictions prevented taking a trip during his work break.
Back in NSW, emergency services warned residents to get ready for the upcoming bushfire season.
NSW Rural Fire Service said this year's fire season could be just as intense as the last.
NSW commissioner Rob Rogers said it was vitally important to be prepared.
"Have the conversation with your family about what you will do during a fire - including where you'll go, what you'll take and what you'll do with animals," the commissioner said.
Heading north, Queensland reported another day of no coronavirus cases, which means nine days for the Sunshine State.
Down south, Victoria's health chief declared a suburban Melbourne virus cluster under control, as the state reported its lowest number of daily COVID-19 cases in almost three months.
Anti-lockdown protesters clashed with police during a demonstration which started at the State Library and moved to Elsternwick Park.
In South Australia on Saturday, where it was announced this week borders would open to a coronavirus-free ACT, Australia's first commercial rocket launched from the Koonibba Rocket Range. proving the pandemic had not deterred the federal government from investing $7 billion in growing Australia's space capabilities.
Stay safe.

. . . Nazis are so bad that you have to devote all your hating capacity to hating Nazis such that there's no room left to hate anybody else. Those hammer and sickle flag-carrying Communists? Well, you must love the Nazis if you hate them, because you have got to hate the Nazis with all your mind and all your heart since, as we learned this week, Nazis are bad. I'm so glad that our moral betters have this all figured out.
I would have thought that one could and should morally condemn numerous groups all at once including the fascists of the Left who have the chutzpah to name themselves 'antifa,' the thugs of Black Lives Matter, that vicious anti-cop operation that takes its inspiration from brazen lies about Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown of Ferguson 'fame,' the leftist termites who have infiltrated the universities and preside over the shouting-down of the speakers of truth, Muslim terrorists and their leftist enablers, and so on -- but not excluding Nazis and neo-Nazis.
It has been fascinating to watch, over the last ten days or so, so-called conservatives falling all over themselves in a crazy attempt to achieve the apotheosis of high dudgeon in the condemnation of one relatively minor bunch of scumbags. Why? So that leftists will finally like you? Forget about it. It won't happen. To them you will always be a racist no matter what you say or do.

BOURNEMOUTH must have hoped playing two days after their promotion rivals would be an advantage but they couldn't have wished for better results on Saturday.
While Watford booked promotion to the Premier League by winning at Brighton, Middlesbrough's dramatic defeat at Fulham and Norwich's draw at Rotherham means Eddie Howe's unfashionable outfit will seal their spot in the top flight for the first time by beating Bolton at home.
Bournemouth's goal difference means a win on Monday will effectively see them up and while they slipped up against Sheffield Wednesday last time out they haven't lost at home since January 10. There will be a crackling atmosphere at the Goldsands and the home crowd should be able to see their favourites across the line.
Bolton improved under Neil Lennon and comfortably avoided the drop but they haven't been great away from home, winning just four times, and have lost at the ground of every team in the top seven.
Adam Smith at right-back for the banned Simon Francis is likely to be Bournemouth's only change while Neil Danns and Barry Bannan are back in the Bolton squad after a breach of club discipline.
Josh Vela is out while Matt Mills is a doubt with an ankle problem. Paddy McCarthy has gone back to Crystal Palace after receiving a knock on his ankle while Max Clayton, David Wheater, Simeon Slavchev, Darren Pratley, Craig Davies and Zach Clough remain on the treatment table.
Bournemouth are no bigger than 3-10 with the likes of William Hill to pick up the points so we have elsewhere for value. There should be goals with five of Bolton's last six seeing both score and Bournemouth netting at least two in four of their last six.
Both to score tempts at 21-20 with Ladbrokes as Bournemouth have conceded four in their last two home games against Wednesday and Birmingham. Over 2.5 goals is just 4-7 at Ladbrokes.
Bournemouth are well capable of scoring 3+ but it pays just 1-1 at Coral while Bolton just to score is 10-11 at betfair (no clean sheet).
Hitman Callum Wilson and French star Yann Kermorgant will be the players expected to see the home men over the line. Wilson netted a double in the 2-1 at the Reebok earlier this season and is 7-2 at bet365 to score first and 19-20 at 888sport to net. Penalty taker Kermorgant is 6-5 with the same firm.
If Bournemouth aren't hit by a bout of nerves they can win this well and 4-5 with Ladbrokes minus one is worth a look.
Recommended Bets

Three people in hospital after weekend of violence
EMERGENCY crews had to deal with a spate of violence at the weekend, responding to a string of alleged assaults that put three people to hospital.
Paramedics reported responding to four incidents involving alleged assaults between Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning.
At least three people were taken to Mackay Base Hospital after receiving medical treatment.
At 5.16pm on Saturday, paramedics were called to an alleged assault at the corner of Shakespeare and Nelson streets.
An 18-year-old male patient was transferred to the Mackay Base Hospital, a Queensland Ambulance Service spokesman said.
Then, about 10.30pm on Saturday, paramedics were called to an alleged assault near the Mackay police station on Sydney St.
A QAS spokesman said paramedics had treated a 34-year-old male patient for a head injury at the scene.
He said the patient had been left in the care of police.
Paramedics attended another alleged assault on Sydney St around 2.30am, the spokesman said.
They assessed the scene but no one was treated for major injury.
About 1.50am yesterday, a 20-year-old male was transported to Mackay Base Hospital with facial injuries.
A QAS spokesman said this was after an alleged assault near Cartel Nightclub on Victoria St.
He also said this was one of multiple callouts to Victoria St overnight but could not give more details.
The callouts continued until about 5am yesterday when paramedics were called to an alleged assault at Orion Ave, North Mackay.
A 22-year-old male was transported to the Mackay Base Hospital, a QAS spokesman said.
A Queensland Police Service spokeswoman provided information on two of the four incidents reported by Queensland Ambulance Service.
She said an alleged assault on Victoria St involved a 28-year-old man claiming to be have been punched in the face in an unprovoked attack.
"Police didn't charge anyone over that. They did speak to someone ... but they couldn't really verify what's actually happened," she said.
"Police are still looking into it."
Regarding the reported Sydney St incidents, the spokeswoman said she was only able to find information relating to a public nuisance charge on Saturday night.
"That was just a verbal argument that happened. Someone has barged a person and he's fallen onto the ground ... it was a bit of a scuffle," she alleged.
Police charged a 23-year-old man with public nuisance.

A cold, isolating place can be our modern workplace. Team members, if not oceans, separated by offices; the traditional working day extends to cover different time zones. Less cash for face-to-face gatherings floating around. In general, fewer interactions with other people. Yes, it is positive to hire the right person for the job irrespective of the location. But if we do not use the online training resources that we need to help bring people closer to each other, then disengagement is inevitable. eLearning is one of the modern personal development's building blocks. While training, why not allow individuals to simultaneously develop their interpersonal skills?
Using the full range of available online training resources, we can better connect our employees. People can still come together and feel like they've had a positive and rewarding experience, even online. It connects them when people share an experience, any experience. If you're focusing on creating immersive, exciting online training, you're giving people something to talk about. In online training, there are different ways you can foster interpersonal skills.
Allow virtual teams to work together
Online training workshops are a great way to recreate an online training classroom environment. To give everyone a voice, use your video conferencing and messaging tools carefully. To help people feel comfortable joining in, include games and challenges. Before and after the online training workshop, create a buzz on your social media and encourage participation.
Provide simulation opportunities to represent real-world situations
If you are unable to personally test their skills, simulation provides a broader real-world experience for corporate learners. In a safe environment, it allows them to try out different options. We encourage deeper interaction if we can allow more than one corporate learner to access simulation at a time. Think of it as an online game that incorporates learning.
Connect online training to social media
Some people are still very reluctant to engage with others using company social media platforms. It's a vital skill in a global environment. An excellent starting point for connecting online is eLearning. Be specific about how you want social media to be used by corporate learners. To help raise completion rates, ask people to provide feedback, find internal experts or promote the online training course to others. You should also appoint a moderator who will be able to keep an eye on the online discussion and ensure that everyone respects the perspectives of peers.
Keep watching this space for more.

Katherine was 18 when she got married to Ken. She had plans to attend college after she graduated high school, but shortly after she and Ken found out that they had a baby on the way.
They decided it would be better to save some money and postpone Katherine's education. So, instead of school, she took a full time job as a cashier at a local supermarket.
She and Ken had used up all their savings by the time the baby was born. Katherine returned to her job, but even with both incomes, it was a struggle with a baby. Katherine decided she needed to try to find a better job.
Katherine liked some of the extra benefits Goodwill offered; like a Good Partner Coach, a free life coach offered to all Goodwill Manasota Team Members. When she met her coach, they discussed Katherine's goals. She knew that she wanted to attend college and get her degree but she said that goal felt like it was unattainable for her at this point. Her coach encouraged her not to give that dream up.
Today, Katherine's goals are right on track and the goal that she thought she couldn't attain was in sight. She had learned that she did not have to put things on hold; she just had to focus and make her goals happen. Katherine knows now that she is in control; not anyone else.
Katherine is now attending college and working towards that degree that she thought was impossible so many years ago.
Katherine says that a full-time job, goal setting, encouragement and a company that understood what she was going through has made all the difference for her. It's what we do...

Sincere Heartfelt Praises with Free Sample Eulogies
When a loved one passes away there are many choices to be made before the actual death, and choices to be made after the death. No matter how a person prepares themselves mentally, physically, or spiritually the loss of a loved one is still a shock. Many family members are able to write their own eulogy, and put their own thoughts and feelings into the writing. Some will even read the eulogy they wrote out loud to family and friends at the funeral.
Some family members feel that with so much going on preparing for the visitation, funeral, burial, or cremation the thought of writing a eulogy seems very overwhelming to them. Using free sample eulogies from different sites on the internet this helps to relieve the tension. There are many different types of free sample eulogies that can be read, and one relative, or several relatives that can read them, and together they can choose the perfect one for their deceased loved one. . If you do decide to use one of the free sample eulogies just remember to put in the deceased name in the appropriate areas.
Reading a eulogy that has already been written can help guide you along with how you would like to write your own eulogy. Writing a eulogy will bring up many feelings from anger, sadness, laughter, and disbelief. It is best to write your eulogy on the computer, read it over and wait for a while, read it again, change or delete what does not feel right. It is important that when writing this eulogy you want to do it with respect to the deceased, and keep the eulogy positive and possibly funny by telling a tale that many relatives will remember. The eulogy does not have to be long, but it does need to be to the point, and it needs to come from the heart.

For years, so many people have been trying to somehow create their own fake notes. Unfortunately, many of them have failed to create authentic looking notes. Depending on what these notes are being used for, the consequences of getting caught could be catastrophic.
With the easy availability of the Internet, now it is possible to get fake notes that look real and authentic. The chance of your teacher or principal finding out if such a note is fake is almost non-existent. A fake template that has been purchased from a site looks like that paperwork that a real doctor would use.
What's possible with a fake doctors template?
When using a fake Dr note for excuse, the possibilities are endless. However, it's a good idea to avoid using notes that are free. These notes look fake and won't get you the desired results. You need the real ones that work like real thing.
It is important to avoid downloading such free notes because they come with so many issues. When you are trying to get a day off from your school or work, it's always best to use fake doctor note that reduces chances of getting caught. Websites that charge for these notes offer you hundreds of options and varieties that are not there in free notes.
Many users have found that it is really hard to edit free notes because they've been created by people who have very poor grammar skills. Many of these notes don't have any watermarks or logos, which make them look suspicious. Free notes also make use of excuses that simply don't make any sense and they are also hard to print, which makes it even harder to make them look legit.
You can customize real looking fake Dr notes to work for various medical illnesses. Some of the most popular illnesses that can be listed on these notes are pregnancy, influenza, depression, pneumonia, strep throat, chest infection and bronchitis.
When using these fake notes, you should choose a medical condition that's easy to imitate. If you can mimic symptoms associated with the medical condition, you can reduce chances of getting caught using a fake doctor note.

Employer Taxes
The Employment Allowance will be increased from £2,000 to £3,000, with effect from April 2016. However, the allowance will not be available to companies where the director is the sole employee.
Changes are also being made to the system for benefits in kind and business expenses, from April 2016. The £8,500 threshold for P11Ds will be removed, and a statutory system will be introduced to replace the old P11D dispensations for business expenses. These will include scale rates for subsistence allowances.

Division of Epidemiology
Epidemiology is the study of the distribution and determinants of health or disease in populations in order to respond to and control health problems. Our discipline serves as the quantitative foundation for public health interventions and is a vital component of evidence-based medicine.
At NYU Langone Health's Division of Epidemiology in the Department of Population Health, our vision is to improve the health and wellbeing of people locally and around the world. Our aim is to discover causes of disease and identify persistent and emerging trends across diverse population groups. We do this by building scientific understanding of the relationships between genetic, environmental, and social factors that affect human health; translating that knowledge into public health action; and training the next generation of scientists.
Our Research
Our faculty members engage in a wide range of epidemiological research, applying the most advanced study designs and analytic methods to identify effective prevention and treatment strategies in the area of population health. Some examples of our research include the following:
- understanding the relationship between the human microbiome and malignancy
- identifying biomarkers of elevated cancer risk, particularly for breast cancer in women in our NYU Women's Health Study
- identifying inherited traits that influence drug treatment response and recurrence in melanoma
- studying genetic, environmental, and social determinants of diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, and cancer
- developing new methods and metrics for population health surveillance
- researching the opioid overdose epidemic to inform evidence-based policies to prevent opioid misuse, disorder, and overdose
- investigating indoor and outdoor air pollution in New York City and other parts of the country
New methods of research are supported by Division of Epidemiology laboratories in genetics and the human microbiome, as well as the extensive facilities at NYU Langone. Members of our division play leadership roles in cancer research through the Perlmutter Cancer Center.
Research Centers
Our division includes the following centers, each with a specific research area of focus:
- Center for Innovation in Measuring Population Health
- Center for Opioid Epidemiology and Policy
- NYU-CUNY Prevention Research Center
Current Research Projects
Our current research projects address a wide range of issues in diverse populations. Some examples include the following:
- Bellevue/NYU Occupational Environmental Medicine Clinic
- City Health Dashboard
- FAMiLI Study: Food and Microbiome Longitudinal Investigation
- NYC HANES: New York City Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
- NYU Women's Health Study
Our Collaborators
We collaborate with the following organizations:
- Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Diabetes LEAD Network
- National Cancer Institute (NCI) Cohort Consortium
- New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, including the NYC Macroscope
- Harlem Health Advocacy Partners
- New York City Housing Authority
We offer an Epidemiology PhD Training Program through Sackler Institute of Graduate Biomedical Sciences. Our faculty also teach a selective course in epidemiology for medical students.
For more information, please contact Rodrigo Arce Cardozo, MD, MPH, manager of graduate student affairs, at 212-263-4843 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

It's finally here, teasing is over:
I'm excited to launch #keyoxide today!
#FOSS solution for easy encryption, signature verification and decentralized identity proofs!
I've been in favor of #DeleteKeybase but I never had something to offer as an alternative. Now I do :)
@yarmo Is this an appropriate venue for a bug report?
Visiting https://firstname.lastname@example.com gets my key via WKD fine (though I'm a bit puzzled where it gets the picture from, my current key doesn't have a picture AFAIK).
But following the verify link goes to https://keyoxide.org/verify/wkd/ed@edavies_me.uk with an underscore instead of the first dot in the domain both in the URL and in the filled-in email address so the verify fails with "invalid e-mail address". Change to a dot and it verifies a .asc signature fine.
@edavies @yarmo
> I'm a bit puzzled where it gets the picture from
It would be better imho to show picture from key. Or at least to support ravatar...
btw, I think the WKD tool at https://keyoxide.org/util/wkd gives wrong values...
great work 😎 👍
@yarmo It's not all working; as said, the verify-signature link on https://firstname.lastname@example.com is broken.
@yarmo As is the one at https://firstname.lastname@example.com BTW.
@yarmo That's what I get too. But what does the "verify signature" link point to? For me it points to https://keyoxide.org/verify/wkd/ed@edavies_me.uk (with the underscore). Similar with the encrypt message link.
Firefox 78.0.1 on an Ubuntu 20.04 desktop.
Unfortunately Chromium seems to be borked on this machine so I can't try with that.
@yarmo Tried it in Chromium on another machine - same underscore thing happens.
@edavies I found it, completely an error on my part! Code I once used during debugging had remained
If you reload the profile page, it should fix the links
@yarmo Yes, works fine after ctrl-shift-R. Glad we got that sorted.

Philosophy at De Gruyter
March 13, 2017
(this text was sent individually in a personal letter to those De Gruyter Philosophy authors and editors that signed an open letter)
An open letter you have signed regarding internal organizational changes in the Philosophy department at De Gruyter has reached me via social media. In this letter, you express your concern about the future of our Philosophy program, and I would like to assure you that your concern, while very much appreciated, is groundless.
You correctly note that De Gruyter, supported by a professional editorial team, not only offers an outstanding platform for valuable works of Philosophy, but is also the only publishing house that offers German-language Philosophy international visibility. You see this latter role as being in jeopardy.
I would like to use this opportunity to acknowledge that your scholarly work and your publications have contributed greatly to De Gruyter's excellent reputation as an academic publisher, especially in Philosophy. We are very grateful to you and all other Philosophy authors who have chosen De Gruyter as their publisher, but I would ask you to allow me to rebut several misconceptions from your letter.
You will understand that I am not able to discuss internal personnel decisions that have already been taken. For our Philosophy program, the organizational changes at De Gruyter do not, in any way, signify a loss of independence or a subordination to another discipline. The impression, also taken up by a well-read internet site, that De Gruyter is "eliminating" the Philosophy Department is simply false.
I can assure you that De Gruyter will continue its commitment of over two centuries to social sciences and humanities in general, and to Philosophy in particular. We will not reduce or restrict our Philosophy program, but will continue to invest in it so that German Philosophy continues to be visible internationally, and indeed, becomes more so. The Philosophy program will continue with the same care and quality levels and existing contracts will be honored just as new ones are being pursued.
De Gruyter will continue to be the publishing partner of academic philosophy despite the major challenges from all quarters, including fundamental changes at educational and research institutions, and assaults on the legal framework that allows publishers to function. In order to meet these challenges and to ensure that De Gruyter remains an independent, family-owned publisher we must react to the real changes in the academic world and this includes changes with respect to personnel and organization. Not doing so would mean losing our position in the market, which means failing to secure a global awareness of the work of our authors and editors in the future.
Philosophy at De Gruyter will continue to operate in its own interest and for that of the community and will keep its own profile. There was never any intention – despite public suggestions otherwise – to change this. Your main contact – in addition to those that you are already familiar with – will be Dr. Serena Pirrotta who is an experienced, committed editorial director who has been at De Gruyter for many years and who will be in touch with you shortly.
Should you have any questions to us, please do not hesitate to contact me directly. I am happy to respond to you in writing, on the telephone, or even personally – and you are, of course, always welcome to visit us in Berlin.
With best regards,
Dr. Anke Beck
Managing Director

This cafe had the perfect response to a 1-star TripAdvisor review
LONDON — What's the best way to handle a one-star TripAdvisor review? Send a carefully worded response? Ignore it and hope it gets buried among the more positive ones?
Nook Neighbourhood Coffee, a cafe in Stockport, UK, took a slightly different approach.
Earlier in the year, it received the following one-star review on TripAdvisor after a disgruntled customer took umbrage with the temperature of its porridge.
Instead of shying away from the criticism, however, Nook decided to embrace it with open arms.
That picture was snapped by a comedian and posted on Instagram. It's since been posted by other people on Twitter, where it's received thousands more shares.
To be fair, Nook does have a strong track-record for chalkboard messages.

Bank Holiday Banter 😜 #bants #nooknc #heatonmoor #theheatons #bankholiday pic.twitter.com/p9FvbqzSLo
— Nook (@thenookNC) August 28, 2016
"The idea was just to try and do something a bit different," Nook manager Arlo Calderbank was quoted as saying in the Manchester Evening News.
"The lady's comment was quite disappointing because we try to provide the best service at all times. Seeing the comment pop up on TripAdvisor was a bit of a shame."
Calderbank went on to say that the cafe normally receives positive feedback, but people occasionally not liking the food "is part of it all".
He said he was "gobsmacked" by the huge reaction the chalkboard has received on social media.

We're now into that time of year when you get about one day per week where the temperature breaks 50 degrees, so I've done that 36-mile Blueberry Hill loop I mentioned in the last post two or three times. I like it; it's a nice ride, not too long, but a good workout. The roads are a bit rough in places, though.
Saturday Jay dragged me out for a ride, which wound up being a 60-mile exploratorium. There were two sections of road that were new to me. From Waltham, we went down South Street past Brandeis, then back up to Route 20 via scenic Summer Street. That really didn't accomplish much, but then we went out 20 to Weston, where we took Concord/Tower/Lincoln roads to the Lincoln 5-way. From there, instead of doing Baker Bridge, we took Bedford Road to Hanscom.
The familiar bit was taking Virginia Road to Concord Center, then Strawberry Hill and both Cross and Curve streets and back to Ferns in Carlisle. There we met up with Paul D., who tagged along as we followed the Quad ride route down Lowell Road, Virginia Road, and Mill Street, where we forked off for the day's second divergence.
To get back to Waltham, we cut across Shade and Spring to get to Wyman Street, which brought us back to Totten Pond and home.
It was a good day out, and at 60 miles nearly doubled my longest ride so far this year. I had good legs for most of the ride, as noted by Jay, who said I didn't have "little Ethiopian girl legs this year". And since it was Paul's first ride of the year, he lagged us a bit, which made me feel better about my winter training, since last year I found myself lagging more often than I'd like.
I'm really hoping for good weather next Saturday, which is the grand opening of Quad Cycles' new location, and also a ride celebrating Bobby Mac's 60th birthday, so I'd hate to miss that. After that comes the annual tune-up, I think.
I checked out a couple cycling movies this winter. "The Flying Scotsman" is the story of Graeme Obree's hour record, and was pretty decent. "The Triplets of Belleville" was a fairly amusing animated film, though cycling wasn't the focus of the movie. And I tried watching "Breaking Away", which is presumably the classic cycling movie, but I just couldn't stand it and only lasted about 15 minutes; the whole redneck teen angst thing just irks the hell outta me.
I've also been working on putting together a short video for this year's PMC appeal. I think I've got the script set, and I'm just putting finishing touches on it before I sit down and record it. Hopefully it'll turn out well. It's nice to have the time to devote to something like that.
And I should mention that I've moved just about all of my PMC fundraising database onto php and MySQL, and hotwired it to the Excel spreadsheet that does all my data visualization. That was rather a lot of effort, but hopefully worthwhile.
So things are starting to pick up, and in two days it'll be April, when my average monthly mileage nearly doubles from March's 125 up to 230. So begins the ramp-up for my ninth Pan-Mass Challenge!
