Inspiring women are go-getters. They make things happen. They live life with no regrets. They are learning about themselves and reaching their full potential. They are not afraid to take risks and just go for it, like Monika Pick from PickArtHome. Monika has joined the ESTILA team and contributes regularly with her "Say it with colour" series where she explores the psychology of colours in interiors, fashion, life and business. Today we chat with her about her own journey into setting up and building a business while juggling motherhood and a full-time job.
What has been your journey so far?
After completing my MA in Sociology and Market Research, for the past 13 years I've been working as an insight and marketing specialist across a wide spectrum of industries (media, telecoms, tech, finance, FMCG and education) and markets.
By day, I'm a very respectable media researcher. At night, I'm an interior design blogger at SecretGardenHome and a freelance writer passionate about contemporary culture and travel. Last year, during my maternity leave, with my multi-media artist husband, we founded an online art shop PickArtHome.
Can you take us back to the time when you decided to set up PickArtHome?
Back in January 2017, we found ourselves at the crossroads. My husband Steve was made redundant from his job as a film lecturer, and as we were expecting our first, long-awaited baby, the timing just felt right to do something drastic and just follow our dream of having our own creative business and adjust our lifestyle to the new arrival. We decided to share our collection of prints and photographs created over the years through our travels and adventures. Each piece we create is curated by us to inspire and tell an interesting story, from graffiti hunts around London to neon adventures in Lisbon.
Steve is a filmmaker, visual artist currently focusing on urban photography. I'm looking after the marketing and PR.
What is the concept for PickArtHome? What is different about it?
PickArtHome is an artist-led, online independent art shop offering a selection of unique, high quality, contemporary photographs for those seeking an out of the ordinary twist to their wall décor. Our aim is to bring contemporary photography to people's homes and make it a coveted, interior accessory accessible to people with creative souls regardless of their budget.
We're on a mission of making contemporary photography a cool interior accessory accessible to all.
We strongly believe that out of the ordinary, high quality photographic prints can compete with the plethora of illustrations widely available that flooded the interior market in the past few years.
Our photographic wall art is printed on high quality, fine art, paper making it stand out as colourful, long-lasting wall decor.
What's the biggest lesson you learnt so far?
Don't expect to make a profit in your first year of trading and don't rely on all of your friends and family helping you out. Most people are not interested or are too busy to share your vision. But, appreciate those who care and egg you on.
Also, don't be afraid to reach out to other entrepreneurs and small businesses. Generally, people in creative industries are happy to share their knowledge and mentor you. Special thanks to Holly from Audenza who kindly shared with me plenty of hints&tips about running a small business, which we use to this day.
How do you cope with setbacks?
I go for a run or do yoga, and then back to the drawing board. I believe that every experience teaches us something and we should be grateful for every lesson we could get. I don't give up easily!
Where do you see yourself in 5 years time?
Fingers crossed our creative business will grow as I'd love to increase the time I devote to running it. I'd like to do more copy writing, organising events and exhibitions and help other women reach their potential in business. I'm likely to continue working in media research and insight as I love my job.

USD/CAD and CAD/JPY led the way in March for 600 pip moves then USD/CAD settled into a 300 pip range where it remained since March while CAD/JPY ranged roughly 100 to 150 pips.
EUR/JPY was already into its roughly 400 pip range from 129.00's to 133 tops and not much changed since March. AUD/JPY settled into its 400 pip range from 80 to 84 however 80 and 84 were outliers as AUD/JPY hasn't strayed far from 82's since March. GBP/JPY's 145 to 153 and 800 pip range remains the big mover yet recall May 8 and long from bottoms at 147.46 and overall 150 target.
Here's the overall question: how many of the 35 currency pairs posted since March completed its 600 pip mission and to what time frame. 28 currency pairs in the majors are offered but not many of 28 are worth the trouble on long term holds.
EUR/AUD after 2 months just hit its 1.5736 target from 1.6100's after 2 months for 200 pips per month. The optimum method to trade EUR/AUD to the 1.5736 target is by hitting daily highs then short, ht highs then short as gains far above 200 pips will be seen. The alternative is to plow into the 200 pips and live life outside the daily screens and pablum commentaries.
What is seen from 200 and 300 pip movements per month is the new currency market structure in place since June 2016. But 2 and 300 pips are trend pips as opposed to range pips, big difference. Central banks changed interest rates into a forced daily lending program to ensure nation's money constantly moves but they streamlined the available borrow and lend ranges. Interest rates and lend/ borrow was the target designed for daily and short term moves and the exchange rate suffered the ancillary effects. CAD is the greatest mover because the BOC can't nor won't change its perfectly designed interest rate structure. Luckily for USD, Commercial Paper can't be touched.
EUR/USD. What remains below is 1.1712 then 1.1588. Above must break 1.2045 to target 1.2100's and 1.2200's. Massive resistance exists at 1.2300's.
USD/JPY Below break exist at 110.09 then 109.23. Above must break 110.44 and 110.46 to target 110.98 then 111.71. Top channel exists at 113.30.
GBP/USD. How about today's break point is 1.3700, exactly at 1.370062. Break of 1.3700 targets 1.3890 then 1.4190. Below 1.3299 and 1.3193 remain vital supports.
GBP/JPY. 149.94 represents the current break point.
EUR/GBP from Monday sell 0.8817, traded to 0.8713 with a target at 0.8663. Sell rallies is the way for many weeks to come.
NZD/USD Break Point now 0.7074. Below breaks exist at 0.6869 and 0.6742.
AUD/EUR broke higher above 0.6300's and explains why EUR/AUD now trades at 1.5600's and on its way to 1.5500's.
USD/CAD watch today 1.2763 as a break lower targets 1.2500's.

The Lamborghini Aventador – One of the most iconic Lamborghini's we know today.
It began as a project to celebrate the company's history and legacy over the past 50 years. From the beginning the car was kept hidden, under wraps, like "government-style" top secret. And now we can see why. The Aventador LP700-4 is a culmination of years of "doing extreme" and amazing the world with eye-catching car pornography, and making us wish we could just stand in one's presence for only a minute.
Check out this video of how the Aventador came into existence and what it means for Lamborghini moving forward into the next 50 years.

T-Mobile has now confirmed the latest Netflix price hike won't affect customers who subscribe to the video streaming service through the carrier's "Netflix On Us" promotion.
The confirmation came from T-Mobile's CEO, John Legere on social media. However, it did come with a notable caveat that things might change in the very near future.
Legere confirmed that Netflix had already advised T-Mobile of the price increase while also confirming that although there are no immediate changes planned to the subsidized version of the service, the company, along with the help of Netflix, is evaluating the change "to determine what impact, if any, this may have down the road."
Legere stated more information on this will become available by May 1, 2019.
Since the launch of Netflix On Us, T-Mobile has offered those on an eligible family plan the ability to access Netflix based on the streaming service's "Standard" plan.
At the time Netflix On Us launched, the cost of that plan was $9.99 in the US. Since then, the price did increase up to $10.99 and with that 2017 increase T-Mobile confirmed that price increase would not affect its promotion – in much the same way it has again today.
The difference is the new price increase sees the cost of the same Standard plan now rising up to $12.99 per month. Which is a lot more than what the cost was when T-Mobile first started the promotion.
There's also the issue surrounding the "Premium" plan. As while T-Mobile does not cover the full cost of a Premium plan, it does apply the same $10 credit to the overall amount. Therefore, current users who want access to 4K content, or access to Netflix on more screens at the same time, can opt for the Premium option through T-Mobile and just pay the additional $3 each month.
Legere once again confirmed that won't change immediately, in spite of the cost of the Premium plan having now rose to $15.99 per month.
One of the possible reasons why the May 1 date is implied is the process of converting existing plans to the next price level is expected to take up to three months to complete. Therefore, it could be the case T-Mobile and Netflix have agreed to not up the T-Mobile accounts until later in that process, thereby keeping the rates for the next three months at their previous level.
If that is the case, then it would seem that come May 1 there might indeed be some changes to the way in which Netflix On Us is provided, or at least the amount that T-Mobile contributes to the cost of a Standard plan.
In theory, T-Mobile could opt to shift Netflix On Us subscribers over to the "Basic" plan for free, as following the increase the Basic plan will now cost almost the same amount the Standard plan initially did.
In comparison to the Standard plan, the Basic plan only permits one stream at a time and caps the playback quality at the SD level. While not the same deal overall, it is still better than nothing considering it's free. That's if T-Mobile decides to go down that route as the self-proclaimed "un-carrier" might simply decide to absorb the additional costs itself, or strike a new deal with Netflix.

Sister Patricia Fox slams PH 'reign of tyranny'
MELBOURNE — An Australian nun who lost a long legal battle with Manila to stop her deportation attacked President Rodrigo Duterte's "reign of tyranny" as she returned home on Sunday.
Sister Patricia Fox, 71, who spent almost three decades working with Philippine laborers, farmers and urban poor, was accused of illegally engaging in political activism as the President's administration cracked down on foreign critics on its soil.
Fox apparently angered the President by joining a fact-finding mission in April to investigate alleged abuses against farmers, including killings and evictions by soldiers fighting guerrillas in Mindanao.
Welcomed by supporters at Melbourne Airport, Fox told reporters she was happy to be home but had found it hard to leave the Philippines.
'Reign of tyranny'
"At present, in the Philippines, the human rights abuses are just increasing and it is a reign of tyranny at present," Fox said.
"There has been a culture of impunity for a long time and it is getting worse," she said.
Sought for comment, presidential spokesperson Salvador Panelo denied Fox's claim of a reign of tyranny in the Philippines.
"There is only a reign of strict enforcement of laws. The reign of terror is in the minds of those who violate the laws because they are terrified that the law is running after them," Panelo said.
Fox had been arrested briefly on charges of violating her visa's terms against activism in the Philippines and the slow turning wheels of the country's bureaucracy began moving to strip her of her papers.
Immigration authorities downgraded her missionary visa to tourist visa.
Last week, they refused to extend her visa and ordered her out by Saturday.
Fox decided to return to Australia rather than risk being forcibly removed.
She left the Philippines on Saturday night.
Church figures have previously criticized the President's policies, particularly his signature war on drugs that has left almost 5,000 people dead since he took office in 2016.
Human rights groups charge that the actual death toll is about five times that total.
Speak up, bring about change
At a farewell news conference in a Catholic school in Manila on Friday, Fox called on Filipinos to speak up and help the marginalized fight to gain land, houses and jobs.
"The big challenge now is not to lose hope, to know that if we all move together, we can bring about change," Fox said.
"Pope Francis said that if you're a Christian and there's massive human rights violations . . . you should take action, make noise. Where the oppressed are, the church people should be there, not only always talking but with them and hopefully more vocal," she said.
Fox told The Associated Press (AP) by phone that the President's war on drugs was "horribly barbaric" and she vowed to return to the Philippines if allowed to resume her 27 years of missionary work for the poor.
"I know a lot of mothers, wives who have lost someone. You have no right to take a life just like that without justice," Fox said.
Dozens of activists, laborers, priests, nuns and tribal people, some in tears, thanked Fox by celebrating Mass in her honor before sending her off.
Overnight rock star
A lawyers' group backing Fox, the National Union of Peoples' Lawyers, said that by persecuting a frail and low-key missionary, the President had turned her into an "overnight rock star."
Known for being soft-spoken, Fox is a coordinator of the Congregation of Our Lady of Sion, a Roman Catholic order of nuns, and has worked for the poor in the Philippines.
She promotes human rights and the welfare of workers, farmers and ethnic groups and has spoken against Mr. Duterte and his administration, which has also been criticized for stifling dissent.
In Melbourne, Fox recalled that after she had spoken publicly in support for Coca-Cola workers seeking benefits in the Philippines, their picket was "broken up brutally, 10 of them were arrested and were five days in jail and not charged."
"And so they were having a press conference and I did say to them, when they wanted me to speak, that the teachings of the Catholic Church clearly say you have a right to assembly, you have a right to unionize, you have a right to regular work. Now that, in the deportation order, was antigovernment. One of the commentators said that now the social teachings of the Catholic Church are antigovernment," she said.
The Bureau of Immigration said Fox violated her missionary visa by venturing far beyond her community in Quezon City and interfered in domestic politics by joining protests and news conferences that tackled "political and human rights issues against the government."
'Political persecution'
Fox's lawyers said she joined the marginalized as part of her missionary work and called the Duterte administration's actions "political persecution."
They expressed fears that the move to evict Fox could undermine the crucial civic and religious work of foreign missionaries in the country.
Aside from Fox, the Duterte administration has separately blocked a critical Italian politician, Giacomo Filibeck, and another Australian, Gill Hale Boehringer, from entering the Philippines this year.
"The law is clear: The entry and admission of an alien is a matter of privilege, and not a right," Dana Sandoval, a spokesperson for the immigration bureau, said on Saturday. —Reports from AFP, AP and Julie M. Aurelio

What To Look For In A Budget Gaming Keyboard
There are plenty of keyboards on the market and they all have their own unique designs and features. If you are new at this then you can easily be confused. Here we are going to look into the different aspects of a gaming keyboard and what you should look for when buying one. By the end of this guide, you should have a clear understanding of what different terms mean and what kind of specifications you should be looking for in a gaming keyboard.
Membrane vs Mechanical Keyboard
There are generally two kinds of keyboards a membrane keyboard and a mechanical one. Each has its own pros and cons and you should consider both before deciding which one you should get. Here we are going to look into both types and walk you through what you need to know about them.
Membrane Keyboards
In a membrane keyboard, the keys have different membrane layers which are used to send a signal to the PC that a key has been pressed. There are certain pros and cons of getting a membrane keyboard.
Advantages Of A Membrane Keyboard
Membrane keyboards are great to type on and while Mechanical keyboards are said to be better, the advancement of technology has left a small gap between them. If you have a decent membrane keyboard then it will be hard to tell the difference.
This depends on the keyboards that you are comparing. There is no doubt that a $50 membrane keyboard will not be able to compete with a $200 mechanical keyboard but if both keyboards are in the same price range and are carefully selected then they can perform and feel similar.
Another advantage of using a membrane keyboard is that they are rather silent when compared to a mechanical keyboard. Mechanical keyboards have a rather loud clicky sound when a key is pressed and while that is something that some gamers like, it can be rather distracting for other people that might live with you. There are different kinds of mechanical switches and some are louder than others but membrane keyboards are generally quieter.
While there are exceptions, membrane keyboards are usually made of plastic which means that they are light and if you are on the move you can easily take one with you. A general trend is that these keyboards are also less expensive when compared to mechanical keyboards which is one of the reasons why they are commonly used by gamers.
Disadvantages Of A Membrane Keyboard
Moving on to all the things that are negative about membrane keyboards, some people find the keys mushy and that it affects the typing experience. Membrane keyboards often require more force to press a button which is something to keep in mind if you spend most of your time on a PC, working or gaming. It will affect you in both cases.
I myself spend most of my time in front of a PC. When I am not gaming, I am typing and I often feel that a mechanical keyboard provides a much decent typing experience as compared to a membrane keyboard. I have messed with a couple of keyboards and in my experience, even cheaper mechanical keyboards from reputable companies are better than most mid-range membrane keyboards. That is what I feel and you might have different thoughts regarding the matter, so do let us know what you think and prefer.
Another issue that you might face with a membrane keyboard is that if you are typing really fast, a key might not register because you did not press it all the way. I spend a lot of time typing and this has happened to me more than a couple of times and it can get very frustrating indeed. If your work involves typing and you play games as well then this is something to keep in mind.
Keyboards these days are pretty durable and can last months if not years but generally membrane keyboards wear out sooner as compared to mechanical keyboards. The membranes just wear out and the keys feel mushy. That can happen to pretty much any membrane keyboard after extensive use. Cleaning can also be an issue. Membrane keyboards do not commonly come with removable keycaps, which is an option on most mechanical keyboards.
Mechanical Keyboards
Mechanical keyboards use switches to transfer typing signals and there are different kinds of switches with different kinds of properties. Each switch performs differently and that is why you need to check the type of switch a keyboard has before buying one. The most common switches that you will find in a mechanical keyboard are Red, Blue and Brown. Some require decent force to activate while others don't and some make a clicking sound when pressed while others don't.
Advantages Of A Mechanical Keyboard
There are plenty of advantages of getting a mechanical keyboard over a membrane keyboard. Mechanical keyboards often come with removable keycaps which makes them easier to clean and customize. You can get all kinds of keycaps which can be used to replace existing ones or to customize your keyboard according to your preferences.
Since there is no membrane, mechanical keyboards are more durable as compared to membrane keyboards and will last you a long time provided that you take proper care of the peripheral. They also stay pretty much the same from day one till when you dispose of the keyboard because there is no membrane that wears off over time.
Mechanical keys do not require a lot of force to activate and this can be a major advantage when typing or gaming. You will be able to press plenty of keys quickly without missing a key. With a mechanical keyboard, you do not need to press the key all the way down in order to register it. This can be a major game changer if you do a lot of typing or play competitive online games that require faster response time.
A mechanical keyboard uses switches and that is why it is going to be a bit heavy as compared to a membrane keyboard. This can be a pro or a con depending on what you are used to and what you look for in a gaming keyboard.
Disadvantages Of A Mechanical Keyboard
Now that we have got all the advantages out of the way, let's look into the cons of a mechanical gaming keyboard. Mechanical keyboards generally use better technology and expensive materials that is why these are more expensive as compared to membrane keyboards.
Depending on the kind of switch you go for, the keyboard can be pretty loud. While some switches are louder than others, mechanical keyboards are generally louder than membrane keyboards. This is something that gamers like. The tactile and audio feedback is something that I personally enjoy but this can be seen as a major con especially if you live with other people.
Mechanical keyboards come with switches and better materials and that is why they are generally heavier as compared to membrane keyboards. This can be a pro or a con depending on what you look for in a gaming keyboard or what you are used to.
Which Gaming Keyboard Should You Get?
We have gone through the different pros and cons of both types of keyboards which show that neither type is perfect and that there is no option that suits all. Keeping that in mind you should get the one that suits you the best.
If you are on a budget and need a gaming keyboard that will get the job done then a membrane keyboard should be fine. Keep in mind that the membrane will wear off over time and that you will need to replace it. Membrane keyboards do not come with removable keys so cleaning the keyboard will be a bit tricky.
If money is no object and you need proper peripherals for gaming then you can go with a mechanical keyboard that will allow you to press multiple keys at the same time. You will also not need to press a key all the way in order for it to register. This will also come in handy if you type a lot. Mechanical keyboards come with removable keycaps and that is a useful feature to have when cleaning the peripheral. This also allows you to personalize your keyboard to a certain degree which can be a lot of fun.
Keyboard Size
Keyboards come in all kinds of designs and layouts but there are generally three different sizes that you can choose from. Here we are going to look into these different sizes and tell you about the differences.
Full-size Keyboards
A full-size keyboard has all the buttons including the arrow keys and the number pad.
10 Keyless Keyboards
A 10 keyless keyboard will have the arrow keys but does not come with the number pad. This is the type that I personally prefer because I do not deal with a lot of numbers. I usually type words or play games so the lack of number pad does not bother me. This is something you will like if you like minimal design keyboards that are simple and unique.
Compact Keyboards
The compact keyboard the smallest of the three and that is because it does not have arrow keys or the number pad. If you are short on space or like things simple and compact then this is something that you should look into.
Wrist Rests
A wrist rest might be the last thing that comes to a gamers mind when setting up a gaming system. These do not seem as important as other gaming accessories. Wrist rests comfort your wrists and let you type or game for longer periods of time. You may not realize the importance of a wrists rest until you start feeling discomfort or start using one. In some cases, the wrist rest is integrated into the keyboard and you are getting it for free. At times the keyboard does not have such an option and you need to get one separately.
Media Keys
Dedicated media keys are always appreciated as they can help you adjust the volume settings without leaving the game. While there are shortcut keys that can be used instead of the dedicated keys but they are still appreciated.
Weight is another factor that you need to keep in mind when getting a keyboard. If you are on the move and need to keep your keyboard with you then you should opt to go with a membrane keyboard as it is the lighter option. Mechanical switches and premium materials make mechanical keyboards heavier which decreases portability.
Keyboards are usually plug and play and do not need any additional drivers. Some features can be limited by the operating system. Most keyboards will work fine with Windows but you will need to check compatibility with Mac OS and Linux. If you use Windows then you should be fine but you should check compatibility if you are going to use the keyboard with Mac OS or Linux.
Cable Length
While this is not a major factor to consider when buying a gaming keyboard, having a keyboard with a longer cable will make it easy to manage cables. Hiding cables out of sight is something that gamers like to do in order to make a clean setup. If you are concerned about cable management then you should consider getting a keyboard with a longer cable. If you have already made up your mind and the cable is not long enough then you need to worry as there are third-party cables that can help you get the job done.
Final Words
We have talked about the different types of keyboards on the market right now and the ones that we can recommend. I hope that all this information will be enough for you to make an informed decision regarding which keyboard you should get. At the end of the day, there is no option that suits everyone and you should select the option that checks all the boxes for you.
Remember that a mechanical keyboard is better for gaming and typing and it is also more durable as compared to membrane keyboards but you should go for a membrane keyboard if you are on a budget. All things considered, you do get what you paid for so expect to get features and quality accordingly.

Plum and Campbell's, Seventh Generation and Unilever, Annie's and General Mills… The trend is clear: global brands want in on the mission-driven social impact market. The trend is clear: global brands want in on the mission-driven social impact market. Click To Tweet And I don't think this should be perceived as a bad thing. But how do social enterprises that often have a loyal following go about maintaining mission and authenticity through acquisition?

Ben & Jerry's kept it real
Upon completion of its acquisition by Unilever, Ben & Jerry's said in a statement quoted in the New York Times: "Shareholders will be rewarded. Ben & Jerry's employees will be protected; the current social mission of Ben & Jerry's will be encouraged and well-funded, which will lead to improved performance in this area, and an opportunity has been offered for Ben & Jerry's to contribute to Unilever's social practices worldwide."
With striking honesty, company founder Ben Cohen also said, "While I would have preferred for Ben & Jerry's to remain independent, I'm excited about this next chapter."
Mergers and acquisitions inherently create uncertainty, particularly when it's taking place between a social impact company and a corporation with a seemingly misaligned mission. However, Ben & Jerry's did two things perfectly to maintain their mission and authenticity in the announcement of this acquisition:
- They put the positive impact it would have on their social mission front and center in their messaging.
- They were honest and transparent about their own hesitations surrounding the acquisition.
Ben & Jerry's views weren't covered with PR speak, and it made their feelings about a time of transition very relatable to those who loved the company.
Ben & Jerry's walked the walk
More than just stating that the acquisition was going to amplify their social mission, Ben & Jerry's showed it, and they continue to show it today. When the acquisition was announced, it was clear the company would maintain its autonomy and continue to commit a percentage of profits to the Ben & Jerry's foundation. Unilever also committed to giving $5 million to the foundation, creating a $5 million fund to help minority-owned businesses and others in poor neighborhoods, as well as distributing $5 million to employees over six months.
Following that announcement, Ben & Jerry's got off to a rocky start that included a round of layoffs. However, Ben & Jerry's has come out ahead, both from a business and impact perspective. Since the acquisition, it's tripled its revenue and added hundreds of employees.
Today, the company still maintains its three-part mission "that aims to create linked prosperity for everyone that's connected to [their] business: suppliers, employees, farmers, franchisees, customers, and neighbors alike."
Ben & Jerry's brings its mission to life in day-to-day operations as well as through the support of issues such as climate, justice and marriage equality. According to Business Insider, the company has "retained a good deal of autonomy: Not just its dog friendly offices with an indoor slide, but also the freedom to endorse social activism movements like Black Lives Matter."
Ben & Jerry's acquisition amplified its impact
As they were with Ben & Jerry's and Unilever, people are resistant to change. However, as Seventh Generation's (a company also recently acquired by Unilever) former CEO Jeffrey Hollender said in an interview with Bloomberg, "We have to get the largest companies on the planet to move in a more sustainable direction." Smaller companies don't necessarily have the reach and influence on the marketplace to tackle issues as major as climate change or social inequity.
And while the company's other founder, Jerry Greenfield, might not credit Ben & Jerry's acquisition to positive change at Unilever, many others do. Beyond its contribution to Unilever, Ben & Jerry's has made a bigger impact with its own initiatives because of the growth made possible through acquisition. I think there's one very key reason why: Ben & Jerry's maintained its authenticity.
Current Ben & Jerry's CEO Jostein Solheim, said: "…when companies come to the world of corporate social responsibility, they ask themselves, 'What do people really care about? And how can we be a part of that?' … We actually ask ourselves, 'What do we truly believe in — us?' … It starts with our values, and then we apply and join in movements with other partners to make change."
If companies involved in these most recent acquisitions follow in similar footsteps to Ben & Jerry's to maintain their authenticity and a mission-driven focus, the world will be a better, more socially conscious, sustainable place— and I'm on board with that.

Mike Zito
Add to Calendar
Co-founder of the acclaimed blues super-group, Royal Southern Brotherhood (RSB), in 2010 the title-track for Mike's "Pearl River" solo debut album (which he co-wrote with Cyril Neville) won the Blues Music Award for "Song of Year." Shortly thereafter he also produced RUF Records label-mate Samantha Fish's debut CD that garnered BMA honors as "Best New Artist Debut Album." But lately, coincidental with his departure from RSB, Mike has been getting worldwide acclaim for his work as front man for The Wheel, a hand-picked band Zito formed in 2012 and which includes acclaimed New Orleans saxophonist (and successive individual Blues Music Award nominee) Jimmy Carpenter, bassist Scot Sutherland and drummer Rob Lee. While immediate critical acclaim hailed The Wheel's 2013 debut studio CD, "Gone To Texas," lately the buzz has been even louder for the band's August 2014 "Live From The Road" two-disc set, where Zito's original songs have gained even more depth through road refinement and the band's obvious deepening personal bonds.

Australia Day
My friend, Judy had emigrated to Australia in the sixties and while on board the boat which brought them out, she made friends with a family of four, two adults and two children, and remained friends with them after arriving here. Jean, the mother, was fully sighted at that time but had a genetic condition which would see her become completely blind in middle age.
One weekend in the eighties Judy and myself drove to Sydney to see the family and as one of the days was Australia Day, Judy and I decided to take Jean, now fully blind, to Manly for the day. It had been a long time since this lady had been anywhere as her husband worked hard and the children were at school so we three girls thought we would do the town over.
The day was glorious and we caught a train from Blacktown, where they lived, into the city and then a ferry over to Manly.
Travelling with a blind person is an experience. At first we were hesitant and tentative until she educated us as to how to behave so that she was the most comfortable, and was able to enjoy the jaunt. We explained where the steps were and how many, the gap between the railway platform and the train and such like, and all the while she held onto either or both of our proffered elbows so that she was the one in control.
Explaining what was happening and putting into words the world which we were seeing brought our own senses into play and we could see much more than we would have otherwise been able to. Taking art classes teaches you to see forms and colours which otherwise pass us by but telling a blind person what you are seeing is an experience like no other. It also helped that she had previously been able to see and so her imagination could take over from our details.
Alighting from the ferry in Manly we strolled along The Corso, pausing here and there to fully be aware of the happenings of the day and the improvements which had been made since she had last visited there, the buskers, the clothes people were wearing, the obvious fun and laughter of the young people. Not that we were so old ourselves but we were old enough to be reasonably sedate in our wanderings.
On the ocean side of The Corso we sat on the beach for a while, feeling the hot sand and listening to the small waves rolling in, seagulls winging around waiting for someone to mention food. There were a few swimmers, mainly children with parents watching and some babies having their first taste of waves tickling their feet and letting them sink into the sand, giggling and squealing with the pleasure and surprise at the coldness of the water on their hot skin, taking their breath away.
Fish and chips while sitting on the wall was definitely the way to go, and we sat there dangling our legs and savouring every last little bit, except for the odd piece of potato being thrown into the air so we could see the acrobatic performance of the birds, with their shrill squawking and fighting over it. The pecking order alive and well but some of the younger ones still getting under the radar.
We paddled along the edge of the beach in the shallows, trousers rolled up above out knees but still managing to get wet when a wave slightly bigger than the rest rolled in, taking pleasure in the coolness, also helped by some splashing of each other as well.
Finally, the evening drawing in, we made our way back to the ferry, piled in along with all the other homeward bound revellers and enjoyed the journey across the harbour, then on the train again, still knocking bits of sand from our clothing.
It was a wonderful day and one which I have remembered more than any of the other myriads of Australia Days I have spent, before and since. Is it because we saw so much, smelt and tasted so much, all our senses turned on and in overdrive? Is it because of that but also because we gave voice to all these senses, verbalised them? I have often wondered.
It is now thirty odd years since that day and I am writing a book about an overseas trip my partner and I did a couple of years ago. On this trip I would write what I had seen, heard, felt and did each day, more or less as a diary but much more than just a diary. With technology being what it is, I was able to email these missives back to my family and friends and it reminded me of that day with Jean, telling those folk back home not just where we were but what we had seen and the feel of it, the smell of it, the wonder of it. Most of the people who received these scraps from our trip will never see the places we visited and even if they do, they will be different to what we have seen. "Everything changes over time, just like wine…" a line from a song by A-ha.

Lyrical and Other PoemsPoetry | Ellis & Neufville | 1827
The Charleston firm of Ellis & Neufville issued Lyrical and Other Poems, which was Simms's first published collection of poetry, in January or early February of 1827. An early date is most likely, because the copyright notice reprinted at the front of the text indicates that Ellis & Neufville filed the necessary paperwork on December 13, 1826, and a review of the volume appeared in the New York Literary Gazette and American Athenæum on February 3, 1827. The collection was generally well-received by critics and in later years Simms would recall fondly the praise ...
The Letters of William Gilmore Simms. Vol. 1Correspondence | U of South Carolina P | 1952
In his lifetime, William Gilmore Simms "was the author of thirty-four works of fiction, nineteen volumes of poetry, three of drama, three anthologies, three volumes of history, two of geography, six of biography, and twelve of reviews, miscellanies and addresses, a total of eighty-two volumes."[1] The estimate of the output was impressive, if not quite complete.[2] Regardless, Simms's influence was unparalleled. No mid-nineteenth-century writer and editor did more to frame white southern self-identity and nationalism, shape southern historical consciousness, or foster ...

Appeals Virtual Conferences - WebEx
Recently, the IRS Independent Office of Appeals (Appeals) conducted a pilot using WebEx software for virtual conferencing. Most taxpayers who participated in WebEx conferences during the pilot indicated they would prefer WebEx over traditional phone calls for future conferences with Appeals. As a result of the pilot, Appeals has expanded the availability of WebEx for conferences in cases pending with Appeals. Under this expansion, Appeals Officers (AOs) who volunteer to use WebEx may choose to offer WebEx conferences to taxpayers and/or representatives who have individual or business cases pending with Appeals. The goal of these conferences is to provide a virtual face-to-face opportunity, improving communication between the parties and assisting in resolution of the tax matters at issue.
- Why is Appeals offering WebEx conferences? Appeals' objective in offering WebEx conferences is to provide taxpayers and their representatives an additional conference option, in addition to a telephone conference or an in-person conference. The purpose of an Appeals conferences is to provide taxpayers the opportunity to be heard and present their position to Appeals, allowing Appeals to resolve tax controversies, without litigation, on a basis which is fair and impartial to both the taxpayer and the government. Some taxpayers may feel they can best present their position to Appeals through an in-person conference at an Appeals office. Others may prefer the telephone. A WebEx videoconference allows taxpayers to be both seen and heard, and to share documents, without being physically present. While taxpayers who are geographically remote from an IRS office might find WebEx a useful and more economical alternative to traveling for an in-person conference, even taxpayers who are not geographically remote may prefer the convenience of WebEx.
- Will WebEx replace in-person conferences? No. WebEx will not replace in-person conferences in Appeals. Appeals' aim is to provide taxpayers and their representatives the ability to have their case heard. Appeals will continue to interact with taxpayers and their representatives through correspondence, telephone conferences and in-person conferences, when requested. WebEx is simply an additional conference option, not a replacement for in-person conferences.
- What will I need to participate in a virtual conference? You will need a computer, tablet, or other mobile device with a high-speed internet connection; video camera capabilities are preferred. You will also need WebEx software installed on your device for optimal performance, although there is an option to run a temporary application to join the meeting. If you do not have a video camera, you can still participate in a WebEx conference for audio and the visual sharing of documents and will be able to see other participants who use their cameras.
- What is WebEx Software? WebEx is free commercial software, made by Cisco, which provides meeting participants the ability to share computer screens, video, and audio. It has been approved for use by the IRS, for purposes of visually sharing information. Using this service allows all parties to participate in an interactive conference to discuss all the facts and/or legal positions. For an overview of WebEx, you may wish to view this YouTube video.
- Who is eligible for a virtual conference? Not all cases before Appeals will be offered a WebEx conference, as only certain Appeals Officers (AOs) who volunteer to use WebEx will be involved. These AOs will provide you the option of conducting a WebEx conference in their initial contact with you. You will need to meet the equipment and software requirements as stated in paragraph 3 above. Appeals will not conduct a WebEx conference unless you agree to it. If you desire a WebEx conference but the AO assigned to your case does not use WebEx, you will have to conduct your conference using more traditional means; your case will not be transferred to an AO who uses WebEx.
- Why won't all Appeals employees offer WebEx? WebEx is new technology to Appeals. Because it's new, Appeals employees can incorporate it as an additional conference option on a voluntary basis. We are not requiring Appeals employees to use WebEx just like we're not requiring taxpayers to use it.
- How do I get and install WebEx software? You can test your system's compatibility with WebEx by visiting the Cisco site at www.webex.com/test-meeting.html. If you choose, you can also download the WebEx software from this site. When you agree to a WebEx conference, the AO will email you a link to attend the conference. This email will include information on how to join the conference and optimize the audio portion.
- I didn't think the IRS sent emails. How is this allowed? Internal Revenue Manual 10.5.1.6.8.1, Emails to Taxpayers and Representatives, provides that when a taxpayer requests email contact and accepts the risk, the IRS may send an email with a brief, unencrypted message confirming the date, time or location of an upcoming appointment. However, we are not permitted to include information about the nature of the appointment or send any follow-up email discussing your account or case.
- Is the WebEx virtual conference secure? Yes. The WebEx conference is hosted on an internal IRS WebEx server and has the same level of security and privacy as a telephone call. Appeals will not record WebEx meetings and, although documents can be shared onscreen, no actual file transfer will take place.
- Can I join a WebEx conference from public location? While you can participate in a WebEx conference from a public location with internet access (library, coffee shop, etc.), it is not advised as you may be exposing your private information to others. If you choose to use a public location, you are responsible for ensuring the privacy of the conference and the AO may terminate the conference if he or she has concerns about the potential for disclosure.
- What are the benefits of WebEx? A WebEx conference (1) provides a virtual face-to-face opportunity to meet, ensuring engagement and facilitating communication, (2) reduces the time and effort associated with taxpayer travel to an Appeals office, and (3) allows visual presentation of information in real time.
- If I visually share a file or application, what do the other participants see? The other participants in the WebEx conference only see the file or application you select to share. They can't see your desktop, other pop-up menus or folders that may display on your screen while you are choosing the file to share.
- Are there any limitations with WebEx conferences? As with many such applications, technical difficulties may arise. Audio and video efficiency may be affected by internet connectivity, bandwidth, and the equipment and operating systems being used by each party to the conference. While it is the desire of Appeals to have each WebEx conference run smoothly, we recognize that technical difficulties may impact the success of each meeting. In the event your WebEx conference encounters such difficulties, the AO will conference with you using more traditional means.
- How will WebEx be used in conferences? WebEx has many features, but Appeals is not using all of them. Appeals will use the videoconference, document viewing, and chat features of WebEx. Appeals is not using the WebEx features for recording a conference or for the electronic transfer of files.
