In Maine filmmaker Nathan Oliver's upcoming film "Absolution," a desperate man learns some hard lessons after seeking out spiritual guidance at a church whose holy façade hides a dark secret. The feature – which will either shoot in December or April, depending upon the success of Oliver's Kickstarter fundraising campaign – represents something of a shift in direction for a local director who's already found not-insignificant out-of-state success.
Oliver's last film, the bloody revenge horror flick "Lady Psycho Killer," was picked up for international distribution (you can buy the DVD at your local Bull Moose or see it streaming on Showtime) and boasts name stars like Malcolm MacDowell and Michael Madsen among its heroine's body count. The film also saw the Caribou native obtaining financial backing from professional investors, in the form of the Georgia-based private equity firm that not only provided the film's (low, but significant) budget, but also dictated a lot of the production details. For Oliver, whose NO Productions (facebook.com/NOProductions) is based in South Portland's SoPoCo.Works facility, the "Lady Psycho Killer" experience was a major learning experience – and something of a mixed one.
"I won't do private equity again," Oliver said. "I'm grateful, but, the next film I make, I want to be an experience for the people making it with me." After his foray into film investment bureaucracy, Oliver says he's looking to return to his filmmaking roots, pointing to his first film, an Aroostook County-based zombie movie. Not that you're ever going to see that one. "Nobody watched it," he said. "It's not a good movie, but it was a fun movie to make because of the camaraderie among all of us who made it."
Enter the popular crowdfunding site Kickstarter, where Oliver's $25,000 campaign looks to make up a portion of "Absolution's" estimated $85,000 budget. It's a figure that he arrived at as part of an ambitious and far-reaching plan to provide new opportunities for Maine film professionals – even if only to help them make rent. "It's a moral imperative," stressed Oliver, whose NO Productions will make up the rest of the film's costs, in the form of money, experience and Oliver's own professional equipment. "I don't want to take advantage of people who I'm friendly with, who I look up to and respect, to have them work on the film for free. I want to be able to tell them, 'Your time is valuable.' "
To that end, Oliver's "Absolution" business plan includes not only fair pay ("at least Portland minimum wage") for his cast and crew, but also workers' comp insurance. For Oliver, the experience of being a filmmaker both in Maine and in other, more film business-friendly places has taught him a lot about the steps the Maine film community needs to take in order to grow and to be a sustainable career option for in-state movie professionals.
"Mostly, it's about supporting something I honestly believe plays into the larger socioeconomic problems of the state," said Oliver. "We're losing young people left and right – in the recent governor's race, that issue was one of the most talked about. And while they pointed to industries we already have, those aren't going to attract a lot of youth to stay or come to the state. There's a double-edged part to the idea of attracting artists – usually it's seen as benefiting people who don't really need it. But all the artists I know are eating Ramen and living in one-bedroom studios. It's a question of retaining them, or losing them."
For Oliver, who cites his work at South Portland's community television station, SPC-TV as another vital outlet for young aspiring film professionals, "Absolution" represents not just his next creative endeavor, but a hands-on, career option for Maine's often isolated filmmakers. "There's a lone wolf or lone warrior mindset out there," said Oliver. "People crank out what they can, sometimes set up a shop, but never look at it with eyes as to how we can make it sustainable." He added, "I want to be in Maine, I bought a house in South Portland, and I want to stay. Now it's about getting people out of their basements."
"Absolution's" fundraising page is filled with the usual dangling carrot perks for backers who, Oliver explains, aren't going to get a financial return on their investment, but can definitely get some neat stuff. Even, in keeping with his film's theme, some questionable promises of everlasting glory. At the $75 donation level, the production promises to "mail a letter of indulgence to your local parish for a communal prayer," among other perks. Says Oliver, "It's all in good fun," although his film delves deeply into some very ambivalent feelings the filmmaker has about the "mob mentality" side of organized religion, with the film's protagonist running up against a minister and a congregation whose claims of piety have turned into something much more sinister – and familiar.
"I grew up in a family of ministers," explained Oliver, who relates the time when he and his father attended a megachurch service in Caribou when he was around 10 or 11. Looking at the crutches on the walls, the young Oliver took his turn at the presiding faith-healer's altar, where his unenthusiastic response to the "snake oil salesman's" routine earned him a more forceful – and painful – lesson about the lengths to which people will go to "willfully ignore their intelligence." "He smacked me really hard in the head," Oliver said. "My dad dragged me out, and we never went back. Some people might think, 'Oh, that's the County,' but it's not – it's America."
For Oliver, his journey into professional filmmaking has been an occasionally painful one, too. "I hit the wall a thousand times," Oliver said, "and that's where my experience is. I gained a lot of traction, and learned a lot, and now I'm telling people, hit me up."

A colleague of mine, of necessity unmarried, has a distinctly lurid taste in shirts. Or, more precisely, the spectral concatenation of a purple shirt accompanying a green tie. I think it's probably something to do with the Fourier transform of the combination that triggers the collywobbles and eye-crossingly seasick reactions. Said colleague goes about his business with blind, cavalier insouciance, entirely oblivious to the chaos and mayhem he is causing to those around him, like a jet-ski at full throttle in a swimming pool filled with the Mothers and Toddlers Group. There really are some gentlemen who should not be allowed out to buy clothes unsupervised, but I am not, I think, one of them. It's time for me to lay up for myself treasure on earth in the form of a couple of pairs of pants and perhaps a shirt or two from my tailor. Apart from the fact that this involves having to go to the Fabric Souk – stubbing a live cigarette out in my eye is more appealing – it must be said that purchasing is rapid, convenient and blissfully short. I walk in and grunt at my tailor, who appears to recognise me. A raised eyebrow indicates that the measurements and required design are the same as last time. He writes meaningless hieroglyphs down in his book like a mediaeval scribe, hands me a card with the job number on it and I am free to leave, returning in three days, having invariably lost the card.
Having been forced to wear bum-freezers at school, I do rather insist that shirtings are made extra long in order to insulate nether regions which have become a little more gravitationally challenged with the passage of time. Perhaps something in a gentle mauve or, perhaps, a fetching lime green, but not, I think, together.
In deference to those who derive childlike amusement from my modest mathematical skill, the curve is a reasonably accurate spectral representation of what happens when purple and green are put together. Pass the bucket.

Mark F (kr) wrote: I'm a Christian but I was a little skeptical about this going in. I was expecting a Kendrick Brothers style movie full of over-simplified didacticism and questionable theology spoken in southern drawls. I was especially skeptical when I saw it was from the same producers as 'Heaven Is For Real'. But this is actually a good movie. I think because it's a re-telling of a true story, it has that authentic ring to it. The acting is very good, the girl who plays Anna did a great job, it was emotive without being too forced, there wasn't any didacticism, it was honest in its portrayal of the mother losing faith and the church not always being the support it should be. It basically just tells the drama of the real story and so it works.Of course, thin skinned atheistic critics can't handle miraculous evidence for God so they arch their backs and hiss at anything of this nature. Their negative reviews are based purely in their own cognitive dissonance rather than an honest appraisal of the movie. They should be ignored. In truth, the only slightly awkward bit was the attempt to portray heaven through CGI near the end. That didn't work for me. As for the rest, it can't really be argued with. If it happened, it happened. The doctors gave her no hope and then she was healed. As always, the real life footage at the end is a nice touch in these kinds of movies.

Protecting market share, strengthening customer relationships and driving efficiencies are top of the agenda for South African organisations, according to survey findings presented at the recent Experian 2017 Innovation Summit in Johannesburg. Yet, many are still to face the realities of navigating the changes brought about by digitalisation.
This is evident in the 2017 Experian annual commissioned survey, 'The New Frontier: Unlocking the power of data' – conducted by Forrester Consulting where 74% of South African organisations view increased activity from existing competition as a key challenge to their success, with new competition also cited at 62%. The study was conducted in June 2017 amongst C-level and function heads in South Africa in the retail, telco and financial services and insurance industries with a focus on understanding their business priorities.
"Given the local economy's performance and as businesses mature, entering into new markets – while protecting current business – poses opportunities and challenges. For many, these are intensified by the digital era involving a constant flow of data and analytics. This places even more pressure on businesses to differentiate themselves in the marketplace while improving their overall competitiveness," said Simon Russell, Managing Director of Experian South Africa. "Our study shows that this is not isolated to South Africa – many companies in Europe and the Middle East are faced with the same, recurring challenge."
"Creating a presence that separates businesses from the pack is critical for improving competitiveness. For many, differentiation is helped by taking on an 'outside-in' approach by focusing on experiences, outcomes and desires rather than on traditional products and services, as our research shows," said Russell.
South African organisations believe differentiation – and efficiencies – can be achieved by better insights of customers (87%), expanding fraud mitigation capabilities (84%) and enhancing analytics capabilities (74%).
"Fundamental to all of these is the need to unlock the power of data, an enabler for businesses to gain first-hand insight into their customers and new markets," said Russell.
Two thirds of South African companies agree that the effectiveness and use of their customer insights can be improved while 64% believe these are hampered by legacy technology and systems.
Although big data has been repeatedly emphasised, many organisations still struggle when it comes to making the most of their assets and transforming these into insights for their decision-making.
According to the survey, 49% said they were unable to get relevant insight from their data to drive their decision-making.
It is, however, promising that 61% of South African organisations are increasing their investment in analytics. In fact, 62% have already or are planning to invest in partners that can build, run and manage analytics.
Fraud – another top business priority – remains a barrier for many with 74% of respondents registering increased exposure to fraud as their top challenge. In the past 12 months, 57% of respondents reported an increase in fraudulent transactions. Many are struggling to manage the complexity of fraud (69%) while 64% are not confident they can mitigate this crime.
"Data and analytics, if harnessed to its full capability, can play a role in improving fraud management by providing predictive models to identify risks at an earlier stage and take appropriate action without disrupting the customer experience," said Russell.
He added: "In the digital age of accelerated business cycles and increased consumer expectations comes the growing need for real-time interactions, where winning or losing market position will really come down to how local businesses are able to make the most of their existing data."
Overcoming these by making full use of data and analytics driven insights will help companies to remain ahead of the curve, identify new markets, protect their existing client base and enhance their overall customer experience.

Smoking in bed
Posted June 5, 2013on:
- In: baby | beer | books | Christine Cacciatore | cigarette | dreaming | dreams | grandchild | relaxing | sleeping | smoking | weird | weird dreams | witch | writers | writing
- 2 Comments
I woke up this morning with a terrible guilty conscience. I actually smoked a cigarette while laying in bed right next to my husband, and when I was done with it, I put it out in a plastic cup with half an old beer in it. Sooooo sexy.
|because I'm pretty sure I was wearing this in my dream.
Other people dream about winning the lottery, or playing baseball, or having sex with Brad Pitt. (for the record, Brad Pitt is not anywhere on my to-do list.)
But what do I dream about? Smoking and putting it out in a nasty, warm cup of beer? What is THAT all about?
I looked it up in my dream journal and there were several blatherings on about what it could mean to smoke in your dream. The biggest one was that "to use it warns you against enemies and extravagance." Well, that really made me laugh because those who know me know that I am not close to extravagant. That is unless you count bringing two cheese sticks to work instead of one extravagant. Then hell yes, I am. I like cheese, all right?
And enemies? I don't have any. Well, there was that lady at the grocery store who eyed my typed grocery list enviously.
What did catch my attention was the part where they discuss what it means to dream about liquor.
"For a woman to dream about drinking or handling liquor foretells for her a happy Bohemian kind of existence. (yes, that's true.) She will be good natured but shallow minded. (shallow minded, yes, yes, also true.) To treat others, she will be generous to rivals, and the indifference of lovers or husbands will not seriously offset her pleasures or contentment." (How do they KNOW ME like this?)
I was surprised that the book says nothing about laying next to your husband smoking a cigarette on the sly and then putting out a cigarette in a plastic cup of beer. Hm. It would seem to me that this type of dream would be had by a great many people and an entire chapter should be devoted to it. Surely I can't be the ONLY ONE.
However, I think sometimes the interpretive dream books sometimes miss the point altogether. Sometimes your dreams are as simple as you saw something on TV, or a certain conversation you had, or what you saw on line or heard at work. For instance, I dream about writing a lot. Makes sense, since I write a lot. I dream about babies because I have a new granddaughter. I dreamed about smoking because sometimes I miss it, even though I quit back in 1999.
As for the beer, I think they nailed it.
I'm a good natured Bohemian-like, laid back kind of gal, and I like to drink.
Welcome to my world!

Lawmakers continue to get heckled by protesters. Fox's Chad Pergram has more in today's "Speaker's Lobby."
I'm Chad Pergram with the Speaker's Lobby.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is challenging the left over protests stemming from the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. The Majority Leader warned that such ploys from the quote, "new Democratic party" could result in violence.
Democratic California Representative Maxine Waters incentivized demonstrators to harass Republicans in restaurants and other public venues. Demonstrators hectored GOP Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen while dining in public. Has the left crossed a line?
It wasn't long ago when the right stoked similar embers. It was 2009 and 2010. Conservatives fought against anything engineered by President Obama and then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. During the health care debate, they hurled racial epithets at members of the Congressional Black Caucus including Georgia Congressman John Lewis and one protester even spat on Missouri Democrat Emanuel Cleaver.
A Civil Rights figure, Lewis said he hadn't heard language like that since quote, "The March to Selma." The left is inflamed now. There's a difference between spirited activism and a mob. The line of separation is thin.

AbstractThe regulation of genes in multicellular organisms is generally achieved through the combinatorial activity of different transcription factors. However, the quantitative mechanisms of how a combination of transcription factors controls the expression of their target genes remain unknown.

text: The upper pasture gate creaked padlocked. A wading lantern to show the latch Flared where invisible things attach, Carrying light snatched up for open use To home a tricky key and save a curse. To burn out opposing night and burn day back, And give dark description where words must lack, Light's concern was kept narrow as the lock. At a click, light soon waded on to earthy dark,-- Swung wondering in a guideless hand Familiar with the black of pasture lands; Sudden cow or knoll indifferently stood stark. I followed from below as I was, restless To see how aimless light in darkness does.

Damascus Road is a non-profit that helps survivors of human trafficking and helps fight the issue of human trafficking.
Damascus Road does a partnership with Communities in Oshkosh, a project-based learning program where students use their 21st century skills to help the community.
Grace Munig, Danae Blabaum, and Emma Armstrong all decided to use their skills to teach about human trafficking.
"Female empowerment is one of my main passions in life, and they mainly help female sex trafficking victims," said Munig.
The girls told us their eyes have really been opened to the issue law enforcement said is happening right here in Northeast Wisconsin,
"The biggest thing I've learned since starting this partnership with Damascus Road is it's more real than you want to believe it is," said Blabaum.
The students said they hope to educate their peers and the community about human trafficking to raise awareness and remind people it is happening.
"Our age is kind of the target age and being able to educate our peers about it is just really... powerful," said Armstrong.
"I feel like the students are probably going to hear the information a lot better from someone their own age," said Terra Koslowski, the outreach director for Damascus Road.
Each of the girls added that they are excited to continue the fight against trafficking.
"I just really want to educate people because it really is such a scary and huge topic that is in our community. It happens everywhere in Wisconsin," said Munig.
The girls are hosting events with Damascus Road starting next week.
- Human Trafficking 101 presentation May 7 from 6:30-8:00 p.m. in the Oshkosh North High School Auditorium.
- Self Defense training classes for students at Oshkosh North High School on May 7 and May 9.
- Fundraiser on Benvenutos in Oshkosh on May 14. They said 20 percent of profits will be donated to Damascus Road to purchase gift cards for trafficking survivors.

Books A-J Sean Boyne, Sold into Marriage - One Girl's Living Nightmare $19.95
Sold into Marriage - One Girl's Living Nightmare is the terrifying true story of a 16-year-old girl sold into marriage by her father: this took place in Ireland.
In 1973 a sixteen-year-old Irish schoolgirl was sold into marriage by her father. Her groom was a farmer almost four times her age. Despite a pre-nuptial agreement guaranteeing that there would be no sex, her husband raped her repeatedly. He also beat her.
Although she made desperate pleas for help, the legal system, the police and the clergy failed to come to her aid. Sold into Marriage is the story of that girl's loveless marriage, as told to journalist Sean Boyne, her rape, subsequent pregnancy and suicide attempt and her eventual escape to London and freedom.

This week I was gifted a fajita kit for 2 from Capisicana to review. I'd never heard of these makers of Latin American flavours, but Dan is a huge fan so I thought I'd treat him.
We're sometimes partial to an Old el Paso kit on Friday night with a few beers. Usually because they're less fuss and we're tired at the end of the week.
However, we usually end up making our own accompaniments (guac, salsa etc.), buying extras to add in (mostly cheese) so it's not always the quick and easy cheat I think it'll be.
Capsicana intrigued me because of the flavours of each box. The fajita kits are available in Mexican Chilli and Honey and Latin Fusion Tomato and Coconut. We were sent the latter along with a pouch of their Ultimate Refried Beans.
You tend to find the tex-mex style kits come in one flavour but different levels of spice; cool, mild, hot…
In the kit you'll get:
- 4 Tortilla Wraps
- Tomato and Coconut Cooking Sauce
- Chipotle and Mango Salsa Mix
And it states you'll need:
- 400g Chicken, cut into strips
- 1 Onion, chopped
- 1 Pepper, chopped
- 1 Tomato, diced
The Capsicana Fajita Kit takes around 15 minutes to knock up. Not bad.
And it's really straightforward. Add your chicken, onion and peppers into a pan and cook for 8-10 minutes before adding the cooking sauce.
I also added 150g diced chorizo into mine for the last 3 minutes which I'd highly recommend doing. (See my Cuban Picadillo recipe for more Latin American dishes using chorizo…)
As soon as you open the cooking sauce you can smell the sweet coconut, which I'm a huge fan of. But I was worried it would be too overpowering as the strong smell remained throughout cooking.
After stirring in the sauce, leave your chicken to simmer for 1 minute. Whilst you're waiting, you can add your diced tomato to the salsa mix provided in the fajita kit.
I really liked this added extra. I never enjoy shop bought salsas and prefer to make my own but it kind of adds time to the quick meal you planned.
This was really tasty too, a subtle kick from the chipotle and lots of sweetness and tang from the mango. Personally, I'd have liked more of this.
There's only enough for 1 tomato and it didn't go very far when sharing between two.
If they sold this mix separately, I'd definitely buy it. Perfect for a nacho dip.
The wraps will need a quick 30 seconds in the microwave too before serving.
Then, you're ready to plate up.
The Capisicana fajita kits are delicious. The sauce is definitely not too sweet, as I anticipated, but you can still really taste the coconut which was so different. It made for a really good balance of flavours teamed with the chorizo too.
Rated 3 out of 5 in terms of heat, Capsicana have focussed on vibrant, authentic flavours.
The taste is apparently inspired by the Bahia classic fish stew, Moqueca, which the company founder discovered whilst travelling the Americas.
Ben fell in love with Latin American food when he realised chillies weren't just about the fierce heat.
And so, Capsicana was born.
They also make a Mexican Chilli Con Carne Kit and pouches of Refried Beans that take just 90 seconds in the microwave.
We tried the refried beans and I have to admit, I'm just not a fan. Dan always gets them in a tin and it reminds me of dog food.
This version looked and smelled a lot better but I still wasn't sold when I tried them. I think it might be the texture…
Dan, however, loved them. I don't think he'll be going back to his tins anytime soon…
And I don't think I'll be picking up anything else for a quick and easy Friday night tea either. There's so much more flavour packed into these fajita kits, which are now stocked in Sainsburys stores across the UK.
The Capsicana Fajita Kits RRP at £3.60, which when compared to similar products is only about 40p to 60p more expensive, depending on your supermarket. But you do get more servings out of other kits.
For me, it's still worth it. There's only ever two of us and although I could have done with more salsa, there was just the right amount of everything else.
As a family of four, you could stretch the kit. Serving up some Mexican style rice alongside a fajita kit wrap each and some refried beans.
The refried beans are £2.40 and also serve 2, which I think is a little expensive but Dan reckons they too are worth it. He single-handedly ate the lot.
I'd really like to try the Mexican Chilli and Honey fajita kit. It's slightly more mild (2 out of 5 chilli rating) but again, the flavours sound so good.
I'd like to see something with a 5 out 5 chilli rating in this range too, it'd be interesting to see what they come up with!
I'll let you know how I get on…
Lots of love, LB x

8-Year-old Helps Buy New Wheelchair For His Best Buddy When Insurance Fails
""Kamden became a paraplegic when he was born with a massive tumor embedded in his spine. Though doctors were able to remove the tumor in surgery, the 8-year-old boy was left paralyzed.
Kamden's last wheelchair was so heavy and bulky, it prevented the youth from being able to freely maneuver household doorways. Since it could not fit into the bathroom, Kamden's mother always had to carry him, which put excessive stress on her body.
Then in August, Kamden was able to test drive a lighter wheelchair model – and he was astounded by how much of a positive difference it made in his life. Unfortunately, insurance could not cover the cost of another wheelchair for another few years.
Meanwhile, Paul had learned about GoFundMe from watching YouTube videos. Upon hearing about his friend's troubles, he asked his parents if he could start a campaign for his Kamden.
In a matter of weeks, Kamden's page had raised $5,500 – roughly $2,000 more than their original goal.""

I am an Indian married to a Portuguese citizen (European national). I am pregnant and due in October this year.
My husband is a businessman and keeps visiting me in Kuwait time after time, he takes visa on arrival since he has no Kuwait residency.
My question is that when my child is born can I sponsor the residency for my child? I have my husband's name added to my passport and we both have legal marriage documents.
My husband can give an NOC to the Kuwait ministry requesting them to allow me to sponsor the visa for our child.
I am currently earning a KD 400 + salary and have Article 18 visa. What is the correct procedure? I really need big help to get this information.
Name withheld
Answer: According to the Kuwait Law only the father of child can sponsor the baby of the dependent except in some very rare cases in which permission / waiver is obtained from the Director General of Immigration himself and no one else.
So, we don't think you will be able to sponsor the child unless you obtain that waiver. Please also remember that unless you get this waiver/permission to sponsor the baby, you will have to take the child out of the country (with the permission of the Immigration Department) within 60 days of its birth or you could run into some serious legal complications.

Consistent and efficient
"Nimbus is revolutionary in the field of LED luminaires. The manufacturers surprised us with their minimalistic luminaire design. Their strength is that the range includes consistent solutions for all lighting requirements." What N interieurarchitecten were describing with such enthusiasm was their experience with Nimbus when planning a building for Boston Scientific in Kerkrade in the Netherlands.
The company specialises in innovative medical solutions and turned its offices into open work spaces with the help of the planners. The consistent aesthetic quality of the luminaires was not the only deciding factor but also their energy efficiency: the building even earned a LEED certificate in silver.

How to outlaw harassment with cultural change
Many leaders try to deal with harassment via policy and protocols
This is why they get caught out. They are stuck at compliance when they should be looking at cultural change.
Many organisations have anti sexual-harassment policies in place, and in most developed economies it is also unlawful. So why is it still an ongoing issue? The fact remains that harassment is both a common workplace occurrence, and in our wider cultures. Harassment takes place because it can and because it represent an imbalance of power, whether gender, racial or another type of dominance. It is also facilitated by a culture of collusion where bystanders and organisational representatives (frequently HR) don't intervene.
Preventative action or intervention takes place usually when there is a threat of a legal process, or as research suggests after the perpetrator has gone too far. According to Annabel Kaye of Irenicon U.K. employment law specialists, it that can take as many as 6 complaints. Organisations which don't deal with toxic cultures risk damage to their employer brand, which impacts all elements of the talent pipeline.
To deal with sexual harassment, or harassment of any kind, requires a clearly defined programme and leadership commitment to drive cultural change. It has to be more than a compliance exercise where senior management announce a zero tolerance policy and take action only when a lawyer's letter arrives in their inbox. It's about holding people accountable and being seen to take the appropriate steps to eradicate it. But primarily it's also about effecting a profound cultural change where everyone finds the behaviour unacceptable and responds correspondingly.
Re-engineering a cultural change to eliminate harassment should be like any other change management initiative. It requires leadership commitment, systemic adjustments and demands changes to individual behaviour. It should be a business decision not just an HR challenge.
Don't miss out on recruiting top candidates by being a hostile workplace. 3Plus can help you with a workshop on Executive Search and Diversity Recruitment.
5 Steps to initiate cultural change
1. Anti-harassment should be a contractual obligation
Make your anti-harassment policy public and clear on the company website. Plus include it in your hiring process, with acceptance of that policy being part of the conditions of employment requiring a signature. Existing employees should also be obliged to sign the same commitment.
2. Training for new hires
Make sure all new hires follow anti-harassment training. Be clear that they know how to intervene as managers and bystanders, as well as how to self-advocate if targeted personally. This should be via live training rather than online or machine learning. It's easy to skip bits with remote learning and a trainer can also learn a lot by observing the non-verbal communication of participants.
Make any reporting processes familiar to all, clearly outlined and easily accessible.
3. Training for leaders
It's important that all leaders receive unconscious bias training. This allows them to become conscious of micro-aggressions, the lower level types of harassment that over time becomes toxic. These are deeply embedded into workplace cultures and become corrosive. It should also touch on cross-cultural training, because certain behaviours which are acceptable in one culture may not be in another.
Any training should cover the handling of hard conversations with key personnel and top performers so that they have a clear understanding of their boundaries. They need to be fully aware of personal and organisational expectations. The CEO should also be present at any initial training to confirm commitment to the policy and active involvement.
4. Leadership engagement
It is evident that leaders very often have no idea what is going on in the ranks, especially how young and junior women are treated. It's important to close that leadership gap with town halls or focus groups, or another way of staying in touch with the grassroots of the organisation. The secret is to talk openly about these issues before they escalate. If employees feel safe and secure they will share their experiences candidly. Just because no one is complaining doesn't mean to say that nothing is going on.
Very often these habits are so part of our every day lives, that perpetrators claim that they had no idea they were being offensive. These individuals need to become culturally aware and develop empathy. They may need additional people skills training. How behaviour is received is more important than the intention behind it.
It might even be necessary to bring in outside experts to do a litmus test on the culture of an organisations with an employee experience survey. We tend not to see the world as it is but as we are, to paraphrase Anaïs Nin. There are lots of apps now that can track corporate culture on a daily basis if necessary to get a heads up on any shifts.
5. Review and update policy regularly
Very often policies are not updated to factor in changes to the law and wider cultural shifts, particularly relating social media platforms. Sexually explicit images, texts and emails can also be forms of harassment and weren't around 10 years ago. Change the people who are trusted confidantes in your reporting system from time to time to gain different perspectives and diversity of input. There are generational perceptions of what constitutes harassment. Allow individuals to choose who they can report their issue to, with both a male and female representative available. Although it is mainly women who report sexual harassment incidents, 20% of men also report issues and we are seeing an increase in these numbers too.
Organisations want to avoid paying lip service to a key employee policy, only to find out later that things are not what they seem when a complaint is finally filed.
Sexual harassment is part of a toxic culture that needs to change. Contact 3Plus for further information

You are here: News Welsh families face rising tide of childcare costs as prices rise again
Welsh parents now pay an average of £117 per week, or over £6,000 per year, for just a part time nursery place, according to new research from Coram Family and Childcare. This is lower than the British average of £127 per week.
The Childcare Survey 2019 – the 19th annual survey – finds prices have risen by 2 per cent in the last year.
Even if they can afford it, many parents may struggle to find the childcare they need. Less than half of local areas in Wales have enough childcare places for parents working full time. The gaps are even bigger for disabled children and parents working outside the typical 9 to 5, where only one in ten local areas have enough childcare.
Other findings on Welsh childcare prices include:
- A part time place with a childminder for a child under two costs an average of £106 per week
- A part time place in a nursery for a child aged two costs an average of £116 per week
- Five days a week in an after school club costs an average of £49 per week
Most parents will be able to get some support with paying for their childcare, including through new investment currently being introduced. While many families welcome this support with childcare costs, others may be missing out on the help that's available because the system is so complex.
Some Government support has failed to keep up with childcare price inflation: in 85 per cent of local authorities in Wales, a full time nursery place for a child under two is now more expensive than the maximum costs supported under Universal Credit and Working Tax Credit. Families in these areas will find that they may end up worse off working or working more hours.
Megan Jarvie, Head of Coram Family and Childcare, said:

Notes to Editor:
- Full details on childcare prices are available in the Childcare Survey 2019. Childcare prices per week for part time childcare (25 hours) in England, Wales and Scotland:
- Parents can get support with their childcare costs throughout Britain through Working Tax Credits, Universal Credit, Childcare Vouchers and Tax Free Childcare. England, Scotland and Wales also each have several different schemes offering funded childcare to some two, three and four year olds. See the full report for further information.
About Coram Family and Childcare

Into a Black Hole
According to a mind-bending new theory, a black hole is actually a tunnel between universes—a type of wormhole. The matter the black hole attracts doesn't collapse into a single point, as has been predicted, but rather gushes out a "white hole" at the other end of the black one, the theory goes. In a recent paper published in the journal Physics Letters B, Indiana University physicist Nikodem Poplawski presents new mathematical models of the spiralling motion of matter falling into a black hole. His equations suggest such wormholes are viable alternatives to the "space-time singularities" that Albert Einstein predicted to be at the centre of black holes. DIFFERENT THEORIES PROPOSED:
According to Einstein's equations for general relativity, singularities are created whenever matter in a given region gets too dense, as would happen at the ultra dense heart of a black hole. Einstein's theory suggests singularities take up no space, are infinitely dense, and are infinitely hot—a concept supported by numerous lines of indirect evidence but still so outlandish that many scientists find it hard to accept. It is said that fact is sometimes stranger than fiction, and nowhere is this truer than in the case of black holes. Black holes are stranger than anything dreamt up by science fiction writers, but they are firmly matters of science fact. In fact, science fiction writers should not have been taken so much by surprise. The idea behind black holes, has been around in the scientific community for more than 200 years. In 1783, a Cambridge don, John Michell, wrote a paper in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London, about what he called dark stars. He pointed
out that a star that was sufficiently massive and compact, would have such a strong gravitational field that light could not escape. Any light emitted from the surface of the star, would be dragged back by the star's gravitational attraction, before it could get very far. Michell suggested that there might be a large number of stars like this. Although we would not be able to see them, because the light from them would not reach us, we would still feel their gravitational attraction. Such objects are what we now call black holes, because that is what they are, black voids in space. A similar suggestion was made a few years later, by the French scientist the Marquis de La~plass, apparently independently of Michell. Interestingly enough, La~plass included it in only the first and second editions of his book, The System of the World, and left it out of later editions. According to the new equations, the matter black holes absorb and seemingly destroy is actually expelled and becomes the building blocks for galaxies, stars, and planets in another reality. The big bang theory says the universe started as a singularity. But scientists have no satisfying explanation for how such a singularity might have formed in the first place. If our universe was birthed by a white hole instead of a singularity, Poplawski said, "it would solve this problem of black hole singularities and also the big bang singularity." Wormholes might also explain gamma ray bursts, the second most powerful explosions in the universe after the big bang. Gamma ray bursts occur at the fringes of the known universe. They appear to be associated with supernovae, or star explosions, in faraway galaxies, but their exact sources are a mystery. Poplawski proposes that the bursts may be discharges of matter from alternate universes. The matter, he says, might be escaping into our universe through supermassive black holes—wormholes—at the hearts of those galaxies, though it's not clear how that would be possible. To explain the discrepancies, astronomers devised the concept of inflation. Inflation states that shortly after the universe was created, it experienced a rapid growth spurt during which space itself expanded at faster-than-light speeds. The expansion...

Dozens of Israeli settlers protected by soldiers burned and damaged olive trees on Palestinian lands in the Yasuf village near Salfit in the northern West Bank on Friday, the second suck attack in the last two days.
Settlers from the Kfar Tappuah settlement set fire to and damaged several olive trees on Friday while Israeli soldiers in the area stood by watching, eyewitnesses said.
The lands that were attacked reportedly belonged to Nafiz and Issam Ali Mansour.
Issam Abu Bakr, mayor of Salfit, warned farmers against the "settlers' attacks" and recommended residents work in groups in the lands close to nearby Jewish-only settlements.
The attack in Yasuf follows a similar incident Thursday near Aqraba, south of Nablus, where settlers from Itamar reportedly attacked dozens of Palestinian farmers and sought to steal their olive crop.
The attacks come as the 2014 olive harvest, a major source of income for Palestinian farmers, begins across the northern West Bank, and just weeks before harvesting begins across the south.
Attacks on the fall harvest are a key way that Palestinians are forced out of their homes and their lands confiscated for settlement construction, as the loss of a year's crop can signal destitution for many.

When it comes to growing hackers, Silicon Valley may be the first thing people think of. As a popular technology, increasing the importance of hackers is becoming well known to many companies. The so-called growth hacker, refers to a way of user growth, that is, through certain means and strategies to help companies form rapid growth. For startups, especially startups, growth hackers can also achieve good results without advertising budgets, marketing campaigns and marketing specialists.
Call technology is such a company to provide related services. Founder Wang Ye, a doctor of Yale University and a former Google engineer, is a member of the National Thousand Persons Program. After personally participating in many Google growth hacker experiments, he started calling for technology to export these valuable experiences to many companies through A/B testing.
Decision-making and benefits
Behind the A/B test is the scientific hypothesis test. Generally speaking, when a company sets up a project, it often goes through a series of standard actions, such as data analysis, competitive research, Market Research and user research. The more complex the situation is, the more likely the decision-making direction will be. Over time, policymakers may misjudge. In addition, the experience of decision makers themselves may not adapt to new market changes, and even subjective personal style may lead to project failure.
When it comes to the topic of big companies copying small companies'ideas, Wang Ye feels that the former's decision may also come from the consideration of reducing risk. Innovation is good, but the cost of failure is not affordable for every enterprise.
Quantifiable risk
Without practice, there is no difference. Without entrepreneurship, ideas can always be ideas. Employees have more goals and a sense of belonging when they have opportunities. In Wang Ye's view, if the project can be tested and demonstrated scientifically, it can reduce the risk of decision-making and even create a scene of increasing hackers. In the long run, an enterprise's internal innovation will be improved, and people who are good at innovation will be rewarded both materially and spiritually.
In Wang Ye's view, the dividends of the Internet industry are disappearing. Product design, brand building, brand renewal, customer acquisition, promotion and cash realization have become the most concerned issues for Internet companies and even traditional enterprises that touch the Internet. Today, major Internet giants are opening laboratories to grow hackers. Although the outside world knows little about this, the importance attached to it within their enterprises can not be underestimated.
Clients calling for technology are mainly distributed in 2C and Internet industries. On the one hand, these enterprises are close to users, on the other hand, they can use Internet traffic resources for A/B testing.
In the future, market judgment is no longer a big gamble, because each link can be quantified.
In Wang Ye's view, big data and A/B tests are also relevant. Valuable information from big data mining can help policymakers make more assumptions. They are not contradictory, but have different functions.
Advanced Testing Industry
Wang Ye feels that A/B testing will give these enterprises a stage, and it is the general trend to encourage low-level people to have the power to innovate.
Various signs show that A/B testing is effective for enterprises, some of which are even outstanding.
Nowadays, technology has become the largest third-party A/B test supplier in China. Titanium media have learned that 14,000 pilot projects have been accumulated on the platform since the end of last year. Comparing with the situation of overseas markets, Wang Ye believes that the future A/B test market is still promising. Wang Ye hopes that Chinese enterprises can further release their value through A/B testing, so that in the future, more great companies may be born in many industries.
