Statement Regarding School Shuttle Pilot at Babcock Ranch, Near Fort Myers, FL
By caiello October 22, 2018 November 19th, 2018 Media Statements
October 22, 2018 — Chicago
The autonomous school shuttle operation at Babcock Ranch was intended as a six-week pilot program to complement the existing weekend AV service provided to community residents. NHTSA and Transdev discussed the operation last week, and while we have not yet received the letter NHTSA has referred to directing us to stop the operation, Transdev voluntarily elected to stop the pilot one week earlier out of deference to NHTSA.
This small pilot was operating safely, without any issues, in a highly controlled environment. Transdev believed it was within the requirements of the testing and demonstration project previously approved by NHTSA for ridership by adults and children using the same route.
Following are pertinent facts about the school shuttle pilot:
The school shuttle at Babcock Ranch operated one day a week, on Fridays only, for five weeks.
A maximum of only five students, the same students, rode the shuttle in the morning and afternoon for the three-block long trip during the course of the five days of the pilot.
A person acting as a safety monitor was always on board and a maximum speed of 8 mph helped ensure the comfort and safety of every student who chose to ride the shuttle during the pilot program.
The shuttle was operated entirely on private roads within the Babcock Ranch Community, which will have some 250 homes constructed by year-end.
Families provided specific approval for their children to ride the school shuttle; again it was the same shuttle that parents and children have been using on weekends as part of the Babcock Ranch experience since November 2017.
We designed this pilot to further enhance our learning about what types of services would be most appreciated by residents, so that as the Babcock community grows, we can deliver a robust suite of mobility options.
Transdev does not – nor would ever – sacrifice safety for progress and is fully committed to compliance with all relevant regulations. We have already transported over two million passengers on Transdev shared autonomous transport services around the world. We operate with the highest standard of safety and security for our passengers and employees in all vehicle and service types, autonomous or otherwise.

$100 Million Solar Park in South Dakota Is Moving Forward
South Dakota News December 12, 2019
RAPID CITY, SD. (AP) — A South Dakota agency could vote next month to approve a permit for a historic $100 million solar electricity generation project on a reservation in the southwestern part of the state.
The South Dakota Public Utilities Commission reviewed a settlement stipulation Tuesday for Lookout Solar Park I LLC's project, the Rapid City Journal reported.
The three-member commission decided to postpone action on it because they didn't have much time to review it. The permit application has been under review since last year.
"It's kind of fun to be historical in South Dakota in a positive way," Commissioner Kristie Fiegen said at the meeting.
The 110- megawatt project would be the biggest solar park in the state. It's the first solar generation proposal big enough to need PUC approval. The threshold for a permit is 100 megawatts of maximum output.
If built, the solar park will be on the Pine Ridge Reservation, which is about 80 miles from Rapid City. It would have about 500,000 solar panels in arrays across an area of 250 acres.
The German company will lease the land from the Rapp family, for whom the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs holds the land in trust.
Lynn Rapp, a member of the Oglala Sioux Tribe, spoke for the family at the meeting. She said the lease agreement is the first of its kind for the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
"We are their example lease for other reservations," Rapp said. "We will be bringing it around to other reservations that have trust land."
Besides the permit, several more steps are required before the project can be constructed. The project needs a connection with the Western Area Power Administration's transmission system, which has been requested and is under review.
A buyer for the electricity is also needed, which developers indicated Tuesday.

Narrativity is the extent to which a media tells a story, which is a storyteller's account of an event or a sequence of events leading to a transition from an initial state to a later state or outcome. There are four theoretical foundations of narrativity, represented by the notions of
 narrative content,
 narrative discourse,
 narrative transportation, and
 narrative persuasion.
Narrative content and discourse are the linguistic antecedents of narrativity. Narrative content reflects the linear sequence of events as characters live through them—that is, the backbone and structure describing who did what, where, when, and why. Narrative discourse represents how the story is told—that is, storytellers' use of literary devices to expand on the narrative content, such as emotional change over the course of the story line and sequencing of events to create drama. Narrative transportation is the engrossing, transformational experience of being swept away by a story. Narrative persuasion is the effect of narrative transportation, which manifests itself in story receivers' positive attitudes toward the story, story-consistent attitudes toward the experience described therein, and story-consistent intentions. The higher the quality of narrative content and discourse in a text, the greater its narrativity and its real-world implications, such as narrative transportation and persuasion, as van Laer, Escalas, Ludwig, and van den Hende show.

The theory of narrativity
The extent to which story receivers experience narrative transportation and are "lost" in the narrative world depends on the level of narrativity of a text. Narratologists distinguish two components of narrativity: content and discourse. The difference between narrative content and narrative discourse is the difference between what is conveyed and how it is conveyed. The features of narrative content align with the structural components of a story (i.e., characters and events). Literary devices, which grant storytellers the power to frame the narrative, are associated with narrative discourse. Variations in these narrative elements affect transportation into the narrative and subsequent persuasion, as the theory of narrativity proposes.

May a laborer who is harvesting grapes from one vine eat the grapes of a different vine?
Home » Daily Peppers
Yaron Yadan 01/25/2010
A laborer who harvests grapes in a vineyard is permitted, according to Torah law, to eat from the grapes which he is harvesting and this is not considered to be stealing from his employer, for it is written "When you enter another man's vineyard, you may eat as many grapes as you want, until you are full, but you must not put any in your vessel" (Deuteronomy 23:25). The early sages (the Tanaaim) ruled that if a laborer is harvesting figs he may not eat grapes, and if he is harvesting grapes he may not eat figs. The scholars asked: May a laborer who is harvesting grapes from one vine eat grapes off a different vine in the same vineyard? What are the issues under debate? In the interpretation of the above verse we could understand that the laws of the Torah permit the laborer to eat the type of fruit which he is harvesting, or we can understand it as saying that the laws of the Torah only allow him to eat from the plant which he is harvesting into his vessel. Other scholars asked: If a laborer who is harvesting from one vine is forbidden to eat from another, how can an ox eat while working? The ox is hitched to the front of the cart from which the laborer works and is in front of the vine upon which the laborer works. You are forced to conclude, the scholars said, that one may eat even from a vine which one is not actively harvesting. The scholars answered that this is no proof, for there are situations in which an ox could eat from the vine the laborer is harvesting, such as a very long vine which the laborer is harvesting from behind and the ox is eating from the front. The scholars attempted to decide which side was correct from the words of the early sages (the Tanaaim). In the Mishnah it is written "If he is harvesting figs — he may not eat of the grapes." This implies that if one is harvesting a fig tree he may not eat of a vine located elsewhere. Therefore we should conclude that if there were a fig tree in a different location he may eat of its figs. The scholars rejected this proof, arguing that the early sages made their ruling in a world in which the grapevine rests upon the fig tree as do climbing plants — and both are in the same place — so while he fills his basket with the figs he is harvesting he must separate the grape leaves from the fig leaves — and in this situation the Mishnah rules that one who harvests figs may not eat of the grapes. The scholars continued to try and answer the doubt from the words of the early sages. In the Mishnah it is written: "But he may restrain himself until he comes to the choice quality [fruit], and then eat." Because it says "restrain himself," it implies that the laborer waits until he reaches a vine whose grapes are choice; were it permitted to eat of the fruit of a different vine, he would simply go, take some choice grapes, and return to work on the vine which he is harvesting while eating. The scholars answered that of course one is forbidden to go to a different vine and eat because the worker is thus wasting his employer's time. The question above is in a case where the laborer's family is with him while he harvests; they could pick the choice grapes for him while he works, so there is no waste of the employer's time. The scholars tried to settle this doubt from the words of the early sages, who as a rabbinical edict permitted the laborer to eat grapes while he walks from row to row in the vineyard. The scholars argued that this implies that the laborer may eat while walking to a different row only due to rabbinical edict, but according to the Torah's laws the laborer may not eat of grapes he harvested in one row while walking to another, though walking from one row to the next is part of the job. The scholars rejected this proof and argued that walking from row to row is not considered part of the job and that, therefore, is the reason that according to the Torah's laws he is not permitted to eat while walking.
(Talmudic issues were handed down orally from scholar to scholar and only in a later era were they edited and written down. Naturally, people forget and the issues were distorted and imprecise; different versions were created. Alternate versions of issues begin with the words "Some say.")
Some say the opposite — at first the scholars thought that walking is not part of the job and that the laborer is not considered to be working as he walks, so he is forbidden to eat as he walks, even according to Torah law, but the sages ruled that he may. While he is actually harvesting, though, he may eat from the grapes of a different vine. The scholars rejected this proof, arguing that walking is considered part of the job, yet he is only permitted to eat while walking due to rabbinic edict. This implies that one who moves from row to row to harvest is considered to be harvesting from one vine while eating from another, and this is forbidden according to the Torah's laws.

God is beyond time, yet He communicates to us in references to time so we can more easily comprehend His meanings. In His desire for us to understand what He is saying, He will use anthropomorphic language, which allegorically describes what cannot be understood in human terms. You will find this throughout the scriptures. But we must be careful that we interpret these things correctly. Some things that appear allegorical are not, and some that do not sound allegorical, are. This is where our relationship with the Holy Spirit, our unerring interpreter, is important. Does the reference, if taken literally, make sense with the whole of scripture? For example, 2 Sam 22:16 – "Then the channels of the sea were seen; the foundations of the world were laid bare, at the rebuke of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils." We know God is spirit, and therefore has no nostrils. But we can take this and more easily visualize His power.
So, with that said, lets discuss the above passage. God is speaking to the Israelites who were falling into idolatry. He is telling them to stand firm in the former things of old, with Him as their God and leader. He reminds them that He is the only God, and there is no other. All these so called gods are not true gods. They are imperfect. They do not have all power and all knowledge. As an example, He declares that He knows the end of all things, and has from the beginning of all things. And nothing can change this, for He will accomplish all that He has purposed. This was said to show that He is above all the idols that they worshiped, for He is the only one who sees all time; past, present and future.
But there is much more I would like to explore in verse 10. It reads, "declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things not yet done, saying, 'My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose,'" This verse has some intriguing implications. Firstly, nothing surprises God. There is nothing you can do that will catch Him off guard. Everything, you have done, are doing, and will do is already known to Him. This can be both comforting and unsettling. If someone else, other than God knew everything about us; past, present and future, we may not be all that crazy about it. For we have no idea how they will accept it. However, God loves us with a love that transcends all human comprehension. He accepts us because of the work Christ did on the cross. He has clothed us in the Righteousness of His Son. And get this, He accepts us knowing what we would do. This to me is a profound truth. We cannot think this way, for we do not love like He loves. We tend to look at what people do and judge their character based on these actions, and thus, our love is measured. Furthermore, we tend to make judgments without complete knowledge. Many a man has been condemned in the court of public opinion for something he has not done. However, God knows it all and as Christians, we are not condemned. What a beautiful truth.
The second thing is that this is, along with other verses, a repudiation of Hyper-Calvinism. First, let us look at a verse that helps make clear what I mean. Romans 8:29 says, "For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers." The word in the Greek translated 'foreknew' is προέγνω, which denotes 'know beforehand.' Now, this verse and it's meaning has been the subject of dispute for some time. Many in the Hyper-Calvinist camp believe that those whom He foreknew He made Christians, and those not in this camp believe that those He foreknew would become Christians. It is very apparent that He foreknew those who would become Christians because He knows the end from the beginning. So it is no surprise He would know ahead of time. But, did He choose whom to save? This is the stance of the hyper-Calvinist. I will say definitively, no. Let us look at a verse in 2 Peter. "The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance." 2 Pet 3:9. God desires that none should perish. He desires that all should come to repentance. However, not all will because not all desire it. He made a way for all, but not all will take it.
And lastly, since He sees the end from the beginning, clearly seeing past, present and future as already accomplished, this means our future is fixed. If it was not, then our future would be contingent. And things contingent cannot be fully known. Therefore, due to the fact God knows all things, including the very details of each and every moment of each and every life, our futures must therefore be fixed. Now, how can our futures be fixed if we have free will? That is a good question. The answer lies in perspective. Through who's perspective are we seeing our future? Let us take a moment to examine each of these.
First, from God's perspective. Before He created us, He knew us. He knew the day we would be born and the day we will die. And He knows every detail in between. He knows the number of hairs on our head, at every time, no matter how many we lose. There is no future to God, only now. That is why He declared His name as 'I AM.', without adding 'I WAS' and 'I WILL BE.' So, as far as God is concerned, our future is as sure as our past. It is known by Him completely. And since His omniscience is perfect, just as the rest of His attributes are, that means He has perfect knowledge of our future. And perfect knowledge is not contingent, but is fixed. For example, if you have perfect knowledge of a specific computer program, you would know every aspect of that program. Nothing would surprise you, because you would know every outcome of the program no matter what input was entered or key pressed. You would also know all the strengths and weaknesses of that program. You would know all the bugs found in the computer code. You would know exactly the outcome for every keystroke and process. There would be no surprises, no anomalies. This is not a perfect example, but it does in some ways explain why our future is not contingent. Contingency denotes unknowns. And since God has no unknowns, He has no contingencies, and therefore the future is fixed.
Now, lets look at the future from man's perspective. With man, our futures are definitely contingent. We have many choices we could make, and each choice has it's own affect on our future. We are unable to look beyond the present, because anything beyond the present is contingent. We may be able to guess, but we can never be sure. There are variables which make things uncertain. If you roll one die, one of 6 outcomes are possible. If you randomly choose one card out of a deck of cards, you have 52 possible outcomes. And you have no idea which number on the die shows up, or which card gets selected. Take it to another level. Selecting a day in the future for an outdoor party. The weather may not allow for the party to take place. A natural disaster could prevent the event. A foreign country could drop a nuclear device on your yard. What I am getting at is that we may think we know what our future holds, but we can never be sure. Examine the contingencies above, and these are just a couple of the many outcomes that could occur. And the farther into the future we go, the more contingencies arise.
Now, to sum up these two perspectives. God knows everything about everything. There is nothing outside of His knowledge. We only have knowledge of past and present events we have become acquainted with. We have free will, and God knows what will be the outcome of our free will, as opposed to us who only know the choice but not the total outcome. Therefore, free will and fixed future are compatible. It is how you look at it.
In my next blog entry, I am going to continue to discuss time as a created entity. I started to discuss it here, but I decided to hold off. It is outside of the scope, and beyond the ability to do it justice. However, let us remember that God knows our future in totality And this should give us reason to rejoice. First, because He can guide our footsteps completely in the direction He desires us to take. But more importantly, because He has accepted us into the family, and He knows what we will do and He accepted us anyway, then we can be assured that His love will never lesson, and our salvation will never lose it's assurance. He is never surprised, therefore He can never be disappointed. Let us not view God anthropomorphically, because this takes away from the infinite grace and mercy He has for us. He is infinite, and any attempt to place human attributes on Him is to try and bring Him to our level. We are to have His love, His grace, His mercy, His forgiving ways. We should strive to be like Him, not strive to make Him like us. We must understanding that time has no relevance when discussing God and His nature. He knows our failures, past, present and future. And He accepts us anyway, and loves us with an everlasting love. Knowing this helps me to understand my hope is assured, and it makes me strive to be what He wants me to be. I know I am thankful He is not like man. For if He was, our hope itself would be contingent, and therefore, no hope at all.
Outstanding as always, Bill. Keep up the great work! Excellent Theology!
Thanks Darrell for the encouragement. This is something I have be thinking about for some time. I am glad God provided a way for me to share this with others.

It was another match between the incredible sisters — Serena Williams vs Venus Williams — resurrecting one of tennis' great rivalries. But at the end, World no.2 American player Serena prevailed, clinching her record of 23rd Grand Slam by winning the women's single's title at the Australian Open on Saturday.

It was the 29th major final for Serena since making her Grand Slam debut in Australia in 1998. It was after long 8 years that the two sisters fought each other since Venus last time beat her sister in a Grand Slam in the 2008 Wimbledon final.
But it was cleared that Venus, despite being one of the strongest players in this tournament, was weaker than her younger sister. Venus was hoping for her first Grand Slam crown in nine long years since Wimbledon in 2008. Seeded 13, she had been suffering years of illness and injury problems, but still gave a laudable performance.

With this title, Serena has smashed Steffi Graf's record of 22 Open Era titles. She is now just 1 short of Margaret Court's all-time record of 24. Also, Serena joins Martina Navratilova as the only other woman to win six Grand Slams without dropping a set.
It's one of the best matches a tennis fan could ask for!

Five Sports Movies Of 2022 That You Cannot Miss


Using folder redirection in the domain for Desktop, Documents and Downloads. It's working great for all users except one. These folders are very slow to list contents for this user. All workstations are Windows 10 Pro on gigabit LAN. Any idea what could be causing this?
# of files in the folder?
Seriously think differently. Read my guide below and then re-read it.
This guide will help you setup Redirected Folders on a DFS Namespace Share or a single server share and enable Offline Files for these redirected folders. The offline folders are set to use the Offline copy all the time, regardless if there is a connection to the server. A Background sync every 10 minutes with a 5-minute variance, enabled for syncing shares in both manual and automatic offline mode. 'Policy Screens' and 'Files not Cached' will be enabled for blank ("") screens and caching so that Access Databases can be synced and cached too.
As the computer's offline files will always be right because the offline file cache is the only one used, create an Offline Files Automatic Resolution Policy for conflicts by using SyncConflictHandling for \\domain.local\Drives\RedirectedFolders or \\Server\RedirectedFolders.
1. You should setup a DFS Namespace. This step is not necessary but is the recommended way. You can still use this guide if you wish to use just \\server\share, however the best practice is using DFS.
5. On the properties of the RedirectedFolders folder in the Referrals tab, set the Cache duration to 1 second. On the Advanced tab, make sure the dot is beside Use inherited permission from the local file system.
DFS is a phenomenal service that you should take advantage of. Not only is it site-aware through AD Sites & Services (for calculating what server is closest to the user, thereby faster access), but it allows for replication between servers, redundancy with multiple DFS Namespace servers, but most of all, it condenses all of your file shares from all of your servers into 1 special folder that takes on a domain-wide path. This allows for the adding and subtracting of servers, moving data between servers, and keeping a distributed and replicated store of your files such that your users never need to worry about what server to access, what server the data is physically on, or if there is a change in server share locations. All of that is done behind the scenes by you and your users just have the appearance of a single location to find all of their files, making it super easy to find what they are looking for.
Members: Those users who you want to add to this policy. Start with it being empty and then when everything is done, we'll add users in here.
Members: All computer objects you wish to add that will store offline files. Start with it being empty and then when everything is done, we'll add computer objects in here.

Location: Apply to your Computers OU or the Root domain, or wherever you want these settings to take effect. They will be scoped by the security filtering.
0 = No resolution. The conflict is unresolved. This allows the conflict to be processed by other handlers in the system.
1 = Keep the local state. This overwrites the remote copy with the local copy's contents. If the local copy was deleted, this deletes the remote copy on the server.
2 = Keep the remote state. This overwrites the local copy with the remote copy's contents. If the remote copy was deleted, this deletes the local copy in the Offline Files cache.
3 = Keeps both copies. Note that this resolution is valid only for sync conflict states where both the server and client copies exist and where at least one of the items is a file. This resolution type is not available when one of the items has been deleted or both items are directories.
4 = Retains the state of the latest operation as determined by last-change times of the items in conflict. If the local item was deleted, the time of deletion is used for comparison.
5 = Write an entry to the sync conflict log and perform no further attempts at resolving the conflict. The interactive user will resolve the conflict through Sync Center at a later time.
Location: Apply to your Users OU or the Root domain, or wherever you want these settings to take effect. They will be scoped by the security filtering.
Now that you have the Groups, Folder, and GPOs setup, it's time to add your first user. Add the user directly to the "Redirected Folder Users" group. The next time the user logs in, this policy will take effect and set up the redirected folders structure and move their existing items to the new location.
Add the computer that they log into directly to the "CONF_Offline Files" group. The next time the policy refreshes on the machine, offline files will be enabled and the automatic conflict resolution policy will be enforced.
2. Redo her user profile on the machine, again, might be something that redirection does not like.
If that does not work, try her account on a different machine.
Would "redoing" the profile simply mean logging in and letting Windows recreate the profile or is there something else involved?
Back up all the user's files.
Reset the Offline Files cache on the computer.
Rename/delete the root folder of the redirected folders for this user.
Allow the user to log in - should be a blank slate.
Copy the files from the backup location (NOT MOVE - COPY - you don't want to keep permissions on the files, you want the files to create the inherited permissions of the target folder) to the target local locations, not server locations. Let offline files do it's thing and sync.
And then when you're done, re-read my first post in this thread.


BACKGROUND: There is no disease activity index (DAI) currently available that can objectively assess the disease status of intestinal Behçet's disease (BD). The aim of this study was to develop a novel specific DAI for intestinal BD through a prospective study. METHODS: Items included in the index were produced and graded by experts in intestinal BD. Two separate cohorts of patients (weighting and validation cohorts) with intestinal BD were prospectively enrolled, and their clinical and laboratory data were collected. Through weighting items by multiple regression modeling, the DAI for intestinal BD (DAIBD) was derived using the weighting cohort and validated using the validation cohort. The index's responsiveness was evaluated using a longitudinal cohort derived from the weighting cohort at a follow-up visit 2-3 months later. RESULTS: A total of 110 patients with intestinal BD were enrolled in the weighting cohort. Eight of the 17 items selected by the experts accounted for 86.8% of the physician's global assessment (PGA) variance. The DAIBD calculated with gradations of weighted items correlated more strongly with PGA (r=0.850) than did the Crohn's disease activity index (CDAI) (r=0.649) in 50 patients of the validation cohort. Furthermore, quiescent, mild, moderate, and severe could be discriminated using the best cutoff scores. The DAIBD showed much higher responsiveness than did the CDAI (r=0.812 vs. 0.645, respectively) in 109 patients in the longitudinal cohort. CONCLUSIONS: This novel DAIBD is an easy, valid, and responsive index to assess disease activity and can be useful to physicians who treat intestinal BD.

Franklin County Sheriff's deputy shot, wounded after chase
Posted 8:27 pm, May 12, 2018, by fox8webcentral and Associated Press, Updated at 08:28PM, May 12, 2018
COLUMBUS, Ohio - A Franklin County Sheriff's deputy was shot after a chase on the southwest side of Columbus Saturday.
The Columbus Dispatch reports the Franklin County deputy was shot shortly before 7 p.m. Saturday. No names or other details were released.
The deputy was rushed to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. He was operated on and was out of surgery shortly before 9 pm.
The suspect in the shooting was killed by police.
Marc Gofstein, Franklin Co. Sheriff's Office gave this statement earlier:
"At approximately 4:34 this afternoon, a traffic stop was attempted by a Franklin County Sheriff's deputy at around Harrisburg and Kline Road. The suspect fled the scene in his pickup truck and was pursued by the deputy. The pursuit ended here at Harrisburg Pike and Aiken Road /spelling not confirmed/ with the suspect's vehicle struck a pole. Upon the arrival of the deputy, gunfire was exchanged, the suspect is deceased at this time. The Sheriff's deputy was struck by a bullet and is in surgery currently at Grant Hospital. We don't have the update on the deputy's condition, but we have been advised by Grant that is it not life-threatening, but he is in surgery right now. Because of that, we are waiting to get a specific update from the hospital."
Still a very active investigation, information will be made available when we have a chance. Thoughts and prayers are needed right now for one of our own!

Nivy is a Hindu. She loves Aussie rules football. And her goal is helping others. When she was growing up in the Middle East, Nivy experienced firsthand how religious identity shaped the way people related to one another.
Recovering in the hospital after a serious accident, Nivy's background as an Indian Hindu all of a sudden became an issue, and had she not also been an Australian citizen it is likely her treatment would have been jeopardized. Now, years on, this experience of prejudice remains with her as a vivid memory. Nivy is a young person in an era of inter-religious conflict, and in understanding just what is at stake she is working to build global interfaith cooperation. She is part of a movement of religiously motivated young people who (although their individual stories are unique) share a common vision.
Nivy is just one of the young leaders helping to build InterAction, a multifaith youth network based here in Australia. InterAction has a mission of fostering mutually enriching relationships and respect for identity by engaging young people in common action for the common good. We are inspired youth from diverse cultural, spiritual and religious backgrounds, working together side-by-side to build a better world. Through collaborative service projects, InterAction links like-minded groups and individuals to make positive contributions to their local communities and humanity as a whole. By doing so, we aim to replace conflict and competition with cultures of co-operation and peace.
We subscribe to the model of action-focused interfaith engagement. Not everyone can be an expert in theology, but each person already is the expert of their own experience. In building inter-religious harmony, the doorway to dialogue is action. By collaborating on service projects which tackle issues of common concern, we can truly come to recognize one another as allies and friends. In this way, not only can people of different faiths share the one table, we can each enjoy our different dishes and come away feeling mutually nourished and enriched by the experience.
InterAction is interested in fanning the flames of a social movement. As Eboo Patel (founder of the Interfaith Youth Core) says, movements happen when people feel so inspired to hear the music playing that they go out and start their own band. We've started a band here in Melbourne, and we want to see others do the same – across the country, and beyond. Why? Because the fact of diversity is not enough. We need to engage it towards positive ends.
The Parliament of World's Religions came to our city last December. Among the sea of people working for interfaith cooperation across the world, you might have missed us, but we were there. One afternoon, in room 210, Nivy got up and told her story. At her side were her friends; six young people from six different faiths with six different stories – all sharing a common vision. The feeling in the room was electric. Our band was playing. The interfaith youth movement had arrived Down Under.

Ven. Freeman Trebilcock (Thubten Gyaltsen) was ordained at the age of 12 at Chenrezig Institute, by Lama Zopa Rinpoche. Now 22, he is a founding member of Loving Kindness Peaceful Youth. Freeman has been actively engaged in interfaith work for the past three years with InterAction multifaith youth network, promoting daily interfaith cooperation through common action for the common good.


Since 1980, income inequality has fractured the nation.
Most stories about inequality in America miss an important point: rising disparities are not just about investment bankers versus auto workers. They're about entire communities of "winners" and "losers." And as these communities continue to diverge, the idea of "an American economy" looks more and more like an anachronism.
We analyzed reams of demographic, economic, cultural, and political data to break the nation's 3,141 counties into 12 statistically distinct "types of place." When we look at family income over the past 30 years through that prism, the full picture of the income divide becomes clearer—and much starker.
Seven of our 12 county-types saw their median family incomes fall. "Immigration Nation" counties fared the worst, as Latino immigrants, many with little education, moved in. The "Service Worker Centers" also saw steep declines, as manufacturing dried up. Leading in growth were the well-educated "Monied Burbs," where white-collar positions bloomed in office parks. Income in the "Industrial Metropolises" also rose, driven by gentrification and new wealth in inner-ring suburbs.

Tropical, stone fruit and floral notes dominate this Argentine blend created from Viognier, Riesling, and Chardonnay.
This medium-bodied extremely aromatic white opens with apricot and pear notes and finishes on a refreshing, fruit-forward note.
The sunny rolling hills of the Lake County are moderated by the cool waters of Clear Lake, the oldest lake in North America, and the land is ideally suited for growing a variety of grapes, including the three in this dry, medium-bodied white blend. Chardonnay brings apple and melon characteristics, Chenin Blanc delivers chalk and citrus aromatics and its acidity adds structure, while Muscat contributes a wildly perfumed nose and distinctive "grapey" flavor.
The Curicó Valley is located in the Central Valley, just south of Chile's capital Santiago. The combination of a Mediterranean climate of hot days and cool humid nights, and soil composed of limestone and volcanic rock from the Andes is ideal for growing all three varieties found in this smooth, full-bodied blend. Cabernet Sauvignon contributes sweet fruit flavors, Carménère delivers spicy and earthy notes and Merlot rounds out the blend with soft fruit and chocolate notes.
This medium-bodied white is light straw-colored, with pleasing aromas of apple, cantaloupe, spice and subtle vanilla aromas. The palate is dry with a rich mouth-feel and a lingering mineral and tropical fruit finish. Pair this lightly-oaked white with sushi, grilled poultry, spring vegetables, or camembert cheese.
Medium-bodied and juicy, this fruity wine displays bright aromas and flavors of ripe cherries followed by hints of cocoa and spice.


If there is one basic rule of marketing that I have seen proven to work repeatedly it is the rule about defining your niche. This can consist of two things: defining WHAT you do, and defining WHO you do it with.
I'll use my business as an example. WHAT do I do? Well, I help entrepreneurs market themselves or their business…but so do millions of other people, and many of them do so exceptionally well. So if I tell you that I teach entrepreneurs how to market themselves or their businesses without spending a cent, doesn't that sound a little more compelling?
But let's break it down even further. WHO do I teach to market their businesses without spending a cent? Entrepreneurs, right – I gave the answer away in the previous paragraph!!! It's more than that. I specialise in working with professionals and professional bodies. This starts to narrow my target market.
In other words, the people that I would be aiming my message at would be accountants, lawyers, professional coaches, people in the "helping professions" and so on. This doesn't mean that I turn business away if it falls outside these parameters. Not at all! However, in terms of my own continuing professional development and learning, I have a particular focus rather than a shotgun approach because of my area of specialisation. I can concentrate my networking strategically and manage my time effectively. I can make sure that I become an acknowledged subject matter expert within my specialised field, rather than trying to be everything to everyone.

India's upGrad Enters Unicorn Club with $185m Funding from IFC, Temasek and Others
Funding Rounds, Startup
Educational technology platform for higher education upGrad is now part of the unicorn club as they have raised $185 millions at a valuation of $1.2 billion, it announced on Monday.
Unicorn is a term used in the venture capital industry to describe a privately held startup company with a value of over $1 billion.
Temasek, IFC (International Finance Corporation) and IIFL took part in the funding, said the company i a statement.
Unicorn" is a term used in the venture capital industry to describe a privately held startup company with a value of over $1 billion
"We are very focused on our path to being in the top 3-5 companies globally in edtech and serving the 1 billion workforce across the age group of 10-60 years. We will announce further updates on M&As, and unlocking value as they unfold. Yes, the last value was at $1.2 billion, but as I keep saying, we are not a fan of the tag name unicorn – for us, it is only a means to a much larger goal," said Ronnie Screwvala, chairperson and co-founder of upGrad.
upGrad is owned by Entrepreneur Ronnie Screwvala, Phalgun Kompalli, and Mayank Kumar. It offers job-linked online degrees, certificate course and diplomas in collaboration with top Indian and global universities. The online platform has claimed to have helped over a total of 1 million registered learners in over 50+ countries.
Last week, the company announced that it has acquired upskilling upskilling platform KnowledgeHut in order to mark its entry into the short-duration course market. This acquisition will allow upGrad to make its presence and offerings for international markets in North America, West Asia, and Southeast Asia.
In May, upGrad had also acquired Impartus which is a video-learning solutions provider for Rs150 crore. In total, the company has made seven acquisitions and acqui-hires so far. They are competing with other Indian unicorns such as Byju's and Unacademy.

Your Desk Will See You Now

Employee tracking is a growing industry. Companies say it's to improve efficiency and reduce waste, but employees aren't so sure what it means for their privacy.
Desks used to be for sitting. Standard chairs rolled up to standard desks. Then came the wave of ergonomic improvements: the yoga balls, and the standing desk, not to mention the treadmill desk.
Next up is the desk that monitors the time people spend at it. Bank Barclays Plc is just one of the companies tracking its employees' desk use via new heat and motion sensor systems that record when employees are indeed at the stations. The OccupEye technology produces data, for display in a variety of formats, that can help companies make real estate decisions based on their space utilization and save them money, too, OccupEye says.
And that's not all. The London-based Daily Mail lists office-design company Gensler, Boston Consulting Group, Deloitte, Amazon and Hitachi as just a few of the companies that have an ear – or an eye – on what their employees are up to, whether by motion tracking, audio cues, GPS tags or other badge-based tech devices. Gensler has saved 25 percent in energy costs in its New York space, Bloomberg reports, thanks to the dime-sized sensors it's installed around the office.
Meanwhile, California-based technology company Nvidia is on the verge of using facial recognition for people entering its new headquarters, and, The Economist reports, will be able to tell when people come and go.
Not everyone is thrilled with the latest developments, even though companies allege that the initiatives are aimed solely at reducing costs and improving efficiencies. Some people cite concerns about employers' ability to further monitor their workers and the effect it could have on their privacy.
Company-issued smartphones, by way of example, have the ability to provide vast amounts of location data to employers, whether that employee is on or off the clock. The Atlantic notes in a story about employee tracking that, while businesses legally aren't barred from tracking employees via GPS at a federal level, a few states have limits on it. States such as Texas, Virginia, Minnesota and Tennessee make it illegal to track vehicles sans owner consent for example.
Many people choose to combine their personal and work phones, and do extensive personal computing on their work computers. They see the savings from not having a separate phone as a benefit that outweighs the additional visibility they're providing. And with laptops, it's not until the computer has to go into repair that users really consider what they've been browsing.
Back to where they're working – Bloomberg reports that office furniture maker Herman Miller in June launched a furniture line with sensors tied to its standing desks and office chairs. Using sensors, software and an app, the chairs keep track of target heights and weights, and monitor how much a user stands during the day. They also track when the user comes in and how – and how long for – they're using their station.
While a few people have gone as far as to sue over such situations, saying their rights to privacy have been violated by various forms of tracking, across the board, these technologies seem to have been broadly accepted as workplace innovations, and ones that are here to stay.

The Challenge: The Children's Museum of Houston increased its capacity and wanted an innovative way to not only use the space, but to utilize it in a way that would create more engagement with its 6 — 15-year-old patrons and keep their families returning to the museum.
The Solution: The museum partnered with Schell Games and created "S.E.C.R.E.T.," a location-based experience where museum-goers are secret agents and have missions to complete around the museum in order to thwart the efforts of an evil organization.
The Results: By 2016, almost 30 percent of visitors in the targeted age range had participated in a mission, and the museum had sold over 3,000 missions. Halfway through 2017, over 11,000 missions have been initiated, with nearly a quarter of them being played by returning guests.

#BusinessAsUnusual: Clear Channel offers 250 free-of-charge digital Out of Home campaigns to local businesses
May 20, 2020 May 11, 2020 Stuart Mitchell
From butchers and bakers, to candlestick makers, and everyone else in between: Clear Channel UK is proudly offering 250 free-of-charge digital Out of Home campaigns to the UK's local business owners that have worked tirelessly to support their local communities throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.
The initiative – #BusinessAsUnusual – has been set up so that the neighbourhood business owners, who've worked hard to adapt and continue trading, can drum up some new trade. They'll have the opportunity to broadcast new opening hours, deliveries, takeaways and the many other imaginative ways that they're operating to keep offering products and services.
Clear Channel's 2,300+ screen strong Adshel Live network will host the local advertisements, playing them on screens within a mile radius of the local business.
As many local businesses won't have the facility to create their own advertisements for the screens, Clear Channel is offering design support to bring the free campaigns to life if required. Business owners will simply be able to share an image and the words to be used, and the team will do the rest.
One of the first businesses to join the initiative is The Griffin pub in Brentford. The pub has adapted to keep its kitchen open and offer a takeaway meal services three days a week, including a Sunday roast.
The Griffin's Landlords Gerhard and Claire Peleschka, "It's been exceptionally tricky times for us over the past few weeks, but we've worked really hard to keep serving the local community which we're proudly a part of. The support of Clear Channel is very welcome and we're so glad that we can get the word out even further that we're open for takeaway."
Clear Channel's Chief Marketing Officer Martin Corke says, "The efforts that local business owners have gone to keep their communities watered, fed, healthy, happy and safe are astounding and they deserve celebrating. I'm immensely proud that we can offer 250 free-of-charge campaigns to local businesses, especially at a time when they all need our custom more than ever."
Local business owners can apply for their free Out of Home campaign through the Clear Channel Direct website:

In late 1979, a photographer went to India to make images of a nun and missionary. It would be a trip that brought together two seemingly different women with one strikingly similar interest: the human condition.
Mary Ellen Mark documented people from all walks of life -- from homeless teenagers to movie stars -- and she was sent to Kolkata on a feature assignment for Life magazine.
And Mother Teresa, who created the Missionaries of Charity and dedicated her life to caring for the poor and ill, had recently been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
Neither woman is with us anymore; Mark died in May 2015 and Mother Teresa died in September 1997. What is with us, and will be forever, are the treasured black-and-white photographs of their time spent together.
Mark's images place us in the presence of Mother Teresa; it's as though we are right there as she's caring for a patient, praying on a train, smiling in a car.
While Bell says his late wife likely found every assignment challenging, "as if each new project were the first time she had ever picked up a camera," her assignment for Life was especially so. Photographing Mother Teresa in such an intimate manner wasn't easy for Mark, because Mother Teresa never wanted to be photographed initially.
But the nun and the photographer seemed to share an unwavering devotion to understanding the people and the world around them.
Had the American photographer and the Albanian nun not come together, we would not have had these photographs, which are particularly relevant today as Mother Teresa is set to be canonized by Pope Francis on Sunday.
Mother Teresa, born Agnes Bojaxhiu, will become a saint after having been credited with two posthumous miracles: the healing of an Indian woman whose stomach tumor disappeared, and the recovery of a Brazilian man with brain abscesses who awoke from a coma.
Bearing witness to people's pain was difficult, Bell observed. It was also inspiring, he says, to have seen so many young women who had committed their lives to helping others.
But what he found most memorable was witnessing his late wife's ability to be accepted as though she had always been there.
"I was struck by the relationships Mary Ellen had made during her first trip," Bell said, adding how many of the sisters and patients Mark met on her first trip had welcomed her back.
Bell says whenever his wife revisited people, she would remember their names, their children's names and even the names of their pets. It didn't matter who the subjects were or what the initial purpose of the project may have been.
Mary Ellen Mark was a legendary portrait photographer. You can follow her work on Facebook and Twitter. See her final assignment: New Orleans 10 years after Hurricane Katrina.

← Progressive Dane elects 7 Madison alders, down 2
'A lot of disappointment for Madison's left.' →
Madison Common Council is majority minority
Posted on April 8, 2021 by David Blaska
Got melanin?
Vote for me because I am (pick one): ☑ Black, ☑ Hispanic, ☑ Queer, ☑ Transgender, ☑ Disabled. But if you pitched your candidacy that your are 🔲 White you would be called a racist. You would, in fact, be racist. The Werkes longs for the day when our politics returns to who is ☑ Best Qualified and aligns with your values.
At least one of the candidates for Madison alder actually pitched her candidacy on her skin color! In his ill-fated campaign for Madison school board in 2019, Blaska blamed his lack of melanin on poor parenting.
Only two of the 13 incumbents seeking re-election lost on April 6 — and it wasn't their ideology, necessarily. Two political opposites: pro-cop Paul Skidmore on the moderate right and cop-basher Rebecca Kemble on the hard, stalinist left. The most effective defender and the worst enemy of police, respectively. Stranger yet, the woman who beat pro-cop Skidmore is Defund the Police. The man who beat Kemble supports the police. You can't tell the Werkes that those districts overnight stood their politics on their heads. Something else was at play. The two defeated incumbents were both white; the winning challengers, both black.
Scratch the average Madison voter and they will attempt to allay their guilty white privilege by voting race.
Of the 20 Madison alders, 12 are now what unofficially are considered People of Color — black, hispanic, or middle eastern. I.E., 60% of the Common Council is minority race in a city that is 75% non-hispanic white.
(They are Barbara Harrington-McKinney, Brian Benford, Nasra Wehelie, Julianna Bennett, Nikki Conklin, Yanette Figueroa Cole, Arvina Martin, Syed Abbas, Sheri Carter, Jael Currie, Charles Myadze and Christian Albouras.)
That's up from 8 on the previous council.
(As long as we are doing identity politics: half are women, the other half … well, let's not jump to conclusions. Gosh, we are cheeky monkeys today!)
Two organizations specifically sought to elect People of Color. Adelante Madison (Gloria Reyes, president; Juan Jose Lopez, veep) hispanics. The other is Blacks for Political and Social Action of Dane County.
"DAAANG!!," says Kaleem Caire on social media.
"MADISON STOOD UP! Now, let's show what leading for Equity & Inclusion really means! I am screaming and crying over here!"
[Mr. Caire continues] Many of us who grew up here, and have families that go back multiple generations, never thought this was possible in Madison. We rarely if ever saw a reflection of ourselves in significant leadership roles when we were young. As a result, many of us tolerated a second class status, limited inclusion (if at all), or we moved away to seek opportunities and inclusion elsewhere. …
It is important for our children to see achievements and progress like this — that we (people of color) can work hard, win elections and gain support here.
Madison also has a black chief of police, a black sheriff, a black district attorney, and a black superintendent of public schools.
We get the role model thing, we really do. But there is a qualitative difference between an alder who bashes the police and one who supports public safety through enlightened policing. Between a school board member who sides with the teachers union and their bennies and one who puts students first. In other words, policy matters. Are Nikki Conklin and Charles Myadze two peas in the same political pod? Both are black; both beat incumbents — Skidmore and Kemble, respectively. But Conklin is Progressive Dane anti-cop, Myadze is a pro-police mainstream Democrat.
Ald. Sheri Carter
Brandi Grayson
The best illustration is in the south side's 14th District. Both candidates were (and remain) black. Common Council president Sheri Carter, a pro-police ally of Skidmore, turned back BLM cop basher Brandi Grayson, 65-35%. (The cop-bashing candidates listed here.) That minority-majority district does not take policing's role in neighborhood safety for granted. It rejected Grayson's slur that Carter was not black enough. (BTW: the Werkes has discontinued capitalizing races.)
Blaska's Bottom Line: Policy matters. I think Kaleem Caire knows that as well as anyone. We agree with his hope:
[that] this is a moment where all voices will be heard and where true nonpartisan legislative efforts … will take root. I also hope the well-being of children and families take center stage, and that business, government, and our social sector thrive, too.
What role SHOULD race play in elections?

I think people genuinely hated Kemble. Skidmore became a victim of the district's demographics.
They also roughed him up with that C-word controversy. That was planned all along.
Steve Witherspoon says:
Absolutely None! It's actually racist to take race into consideration.
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.." Martin Luther King Jr.
This dream has been bastardized so badly in the 21st century that it in some instances it's being completely ignored. Our society is in the process of completely shifting into the unethical abyss of identity politics and those identities now appear to be the core of all things socially motivated and a lot of things politically motivated. Identity politics are beginning to override everything else. Identity politics have divided our culture into tribes of self-centered bigoted groups of people that "feel" entitled simply because of their identity. These self-isolating identities are things like male, female, choice of gender, gay, straight, black, white, Latino, Asian, race, ethnicity, police, authority, victim-hood, conservative, liberal, progressive, socialist, the list goes on and on.
What's worse is that this particular dream is been ignored by a vast majority of the very tribe of people that King was fighting for, the black community. The 21st century black community has shifted to almost entirely being an identity group of people that want to be judged by the color of their skin and some demand to receive preferential treatment specifically because of their skin color. What we are seeing across the United States is unethical rationalizations demanding special treatment specifically because of the color of their skin regardless of the content of their character, their behavior, or their morals. This immoral behavior is becoming more and more socially acceptable within the sub-culture of the black community and it's slowly destroying the character of growing black children and entire future generations are being set up for failure. This behavior is clearly a complete bastardization of King's dream to "not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character".
King wanted race to be completely removed from equality in opportunity and not have people prejudged based on the color of their skin or race. What we are seeing now is that if tribes of people don't get what they want from others, like illogical equality in outcomes, they falsely claim that they're being oppressed and publicly smear anyone that disagrees with them; it's unquestionably bigotry, tribal discrimination, and in some cases open racism. There are people wearing clothing that says things like "Fuck White People" and "All White People Are Racist" and others making ridiculous claims that police are specifically trained to kill black students. To racists everything is about race.

David, "Best Qualified and aligns with you values" Those assumptions are based upon racist ideology brought on by centuries of white supremacy.
yup, that makes Ever's choice of Barrett for Dane County Sheriff fit your ideology. Qualifications had little to do with Ever's choice.
Dave are ya sayin', GASP, sumthin' very un-PC here? Confirm please, so's I can applaud…
1. "Blaska blamed his lack of melanin on poor parenting."
2. "Something else was at play. The two defeated incumbents were both white; the winning challengers, both black."
3. "(As long as we are doing identity politics: half are women, the other half … well, let's not jump to conclusions. Gosh, we are cheeky monkeys today!)"
That said, I was VERY disappointed w/ Kaleem's comments on social media. "Tolerated a second-class status." Not so at all. For decades, even before LBJ, this community supported and anyone/everyone who worked and achieved. Yes, quietly -but otherwise wouldn't it be be condescending. And… "Equity" as currently understood = Free Stuff.
I know many folks of all political stances read your blog. I hope they pass along -we need less victimhood and hopelessness, (Caire !). The future is now, achievement & success await any & all.
Not black enough? Maybe too much American in her?

The total annual heat consumption of Estonia is less than 6,600 GWh; in 2013, 70% of this amount (4,600 GWh) was taken up by district heating.
As a comparison, we can give the example of an apartment house with one hundred apartments, using approximately 0.7 GWh of thermal energy that is distributed by means of district heating. Approximately 30% of the population use individual heating solutions, generating thermal energy mostly from wood and natural gas.
District heating sector plays an important role in the achievement of Estonia's renewable energy objectives. We promote the co-generation of thermal energy and electricity, if this is economically and technically feasible, which can contribute to diminishing environmental impacts caused by the heating supply and help to conserve more energy than it would be possible in the case of the separate generation of electricity and thermal energy.
District heating costs can be optimised by consumers themselves. The best alternative for some cost saving would be to decrease the thermal energy consumption of an apartment house by a properly renovated façade and efficiently operating technical systems. Foundation KredEx will help to make the required investments.
The responsibility for the organisation of heating sector lies with local governments that will establish district heating areas and the procedure for the provision of the related services.
According to the legislation regulating the district heating sector, heat distribution operators will be required to ensure effective, reliable, secure heat supply that meets the environmental requirements and needs of consumers at justified price.
According to Article 9 of the District Heating Act, heat distribution operators will be required to harmonise the maximum fee chargeable for thermal energy sold to consumers with the Estonian Competition Authority.
For the purposes of price harmonisation, the Estonian Competition Authority will observe, above all, the principle of the maximum fee chargeable for thermal energy being cost-based while the expenditures made to generate and distribute thermal energy must be justified.
In Estonia, there are, in total, 230 district heating network areas. In February 2015, the prices of thermal energy without value added tax, remained between 33.54–88.57 €/MWh. The average weighed price of thermal energy without value added tax, was 53.83 €/MWh in February 2015, whereas the arithmetic mean value was 64.37 €/MWh. As a general rule, the main reasons behind the higher than average prices of thermal energy, are the use of expensive fuels, like oil shale oil and natural gas and the poor technical condition of district heating networks.
Demographic trends must be taken into consideration when evaluating the sustainability of district heating regions, in terms of deciding whether the future number of consumers is about to increase or decrease. In 2015, the responsibility for the evaluation of a region will be transferred to the local government, which must approve the heating sector development plans of district heating networks located within its administrative territory.
In the conditions of depreciating generation plant and heat distribution networks, stricter performance and efficiency requirements and dropping consumption volumes, it is important to motivate district heating operators to invest into the sector. In addition, wide-based support mechanisms must be made available, assuming that district heating area is sustainable in the long-term.
Slightly less than a half of the budget, 102 million euros, will be spent on achieving the desired energy performance outcomes in apartment houses; this will result in reduced expenditures of consumers made on thermal energy.
The efficient generation of thermal energy is another important funding area and approximately 78 million euros will be spent to help to renovate inefficient heat distribution networks or transfer unpromising district heating systems to local heating.
Local governments can apply for support for the development of heating sector development plants to study the options available for the continued use of district heating. Regulations to support funding the measures will be developed simultaneously with the amendments introduced to the District Heating Act, to ensure the provision of environmental and investment support, as effective as possible.
The financing rounds will be opened in 2015 and the co-ordination of the organisation of rounds will be the function of the Environmental Investment Centre (KIK).

From safety and health concerns to personal care and housekeeping worries, the stress can be overwhelming. You can lessen the impact of Alzheimer's and dementia on your life by creating a solid plan for how you will deal with the challenges ahead. Specialized devices, modified living environments and in-home care for seniors with dementia can offset many risks and concerns.
If you're caring for an Alzheimer's patient at home, or you need in-home care for a senior with dementia right away, contact Sunny Days In-Home Care, and we can complete a complimentary in-home care consultation and send a caregiver to your home quickly.
The Alzheimer's Association offers the Alzheimer's Navigator, an online tools and information portal that helps you forecast your needs and create a support plan that addresses each one. It covers topics such as working with your doctor, managing symptoms, safety, legal planning, financial planning, caregiver support, care options and daily living. You can delve into each area of concern by answering a series of questions to determine what your needs are for caring for someone with dementia. You'll then receive an action plan that will help you figure out how to proceed.
When people request an in-home care consultation from Sunny Days In-Home Care, one of our caregiver managers visits the client's home for a thorough discussion and evaluation. During this time, they will determine the client's most pressing needs and principal concerns. We can help identify ways to adapt living spaces and routines to better accommodate you or your loved one's condition, and explain your care options. We treat every person with the unique dignity he or she deserves, and customize our care to meet your individual needs.
In-home care takes on many forms, and often in-home medical care isn't needed, especially in the early stages of Alzheimer's and dementia. Non-medical in-home care provides for a person's basic needs, including bathing and grooming, bathroom assistance, light housekeeping and cooking, as well as transportation to and from the grocery store and doctor appointments, and general companionship. In-home medical care requires the use of skilled nursing or a home health aide, and it is usually more expensive and more complex to coordinate.
The non-medical in-home care we provide at Sunny Days offers families peace of mind in knowing we are caring for their loved ones' needs. Our qualified and attentive caregivers help keep clients safe and comfortable, and they understand what it takes for a family to be caring for an Alzheimer's patient at home. Contact us today to learn more about Sunny Days' mission to serve our clients with compassion. Call us at 724-260-5186 or email info@sunnydaysinhomecare.com.

El elanio tijereta (Elanoides forficatus), también conocido como  gavilán tijerilla, halcón tijereta o aguililla tijereta,  es una especie de ave accipitriforme de la familia Accipitridae, la única del género Elanoides. Se extiende desde el sudeste de los Estados Unidos hasta el este de Perú y el norte de Argentina, aunque casi todos invernan en América del Sur. En México recibe el nombre de milano tijereta.

Descripción
El elanio tijereta mide de 55 a 65 cm de longitud, con una envergadura de 1,3 m. El macho y la hembra son similares. El plumaje es blanco y negro, muy contrastado. Las plumas remeras, la cola, las patas y el pico son negros. Se caracteriza por la cola ahorquillada, de la que recibe el nombre.

Los jóvenes tienen la coloración menos marcada, y la cola no está tan profundamente ahorquillada.

Hábitat
El elanio tijereta habita principalmente en bosques y humedales arbolados. Construye el nido en los árboles, generalmente cerca del agua. El macho y la hembra participan en la construcción del nido.

Comportamiento
A veces emite un grito agudo; pero en general es un ave silenciosa.

Alimentación
El elanio tijereta se alimenta de pequeños reptiles e insectos, y bebe en vuelo rasante sobre la superficie del agua.

Reproducción
El apareamiento se desarrolla entre marzo y mayo; la hembra pone de dos a cuatro huevos. La incubación dura 28 días, y los polluelos abandonan el nido entre 36 y 42 días después.

Subespecies
Se reconocen dos subespecies de Elanoides forficatus:

Country Music Hall of Fame member Don Williams.
Country music lost the legendary Don Williams today after a brief illness. The Country Music Hall of Fame member was 78 years old. Fans will remember his distinctive voice on chart-topping songs from the 1970s like "Tulsa Time," "Love Me Over Again," "It Must Be Love," "Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good," and "Some Broken Hearts Never Mend." One of his biggest hits, "I Believe in You," was a crossover success in 1981.
A native of Floydada, Texas, Williams was born May 27, 1939. He grew up in Portland, TX, graduating there in 1958. Music had always been a part of his upbringing, entering – and winning - a talent contest when he was just three years old. For his efforts, Williams received an alarm clock. He began playing guitar during his teenage years, learning the songs that he heard on the radio during that period. He and his friends played in local bands around the area, and he wed wife Joy Bucher on April 10, 1960.
After the group disbanded in 1969, Williams soon found his way to Nashville. By 1971, he had a songwriting contract with the publishing company owned by Jack Clement. The next year would see Williams ink a recording deal with Clement's JMI Records. He made his chart debut with "The Shelter of Your Eyes" in 1973 and was soon hitting the charts time and again with a much more laid-back sound than a lot of the music coming out of Nashville at the time. 1974 would see Williams top the charts for the first time with "I Wouldn't Want To Live If You Didn't Love Me." From that point all the way through 1991, each Williams single would hit the Top-40 on the Billboard Country charts. His 1970s hits included such chart toppers as "Tulsa Time," "She Never Knew Me," and "It Must Be Love." His career grew steadily through label shifts to ABC / Dot, MCA, Capitol, and finally RCA. Williams also gained a devoted following overseas in such unlikely spots as England, Ireland, and New Zealand, and even South Africa and Kenya – where he reached superstar status. He was named the Male Vocalist of the Year by the Country Music Association in 1978. Though known for being very low-key and soft spoken, Williams did make two movie appearances – 1974's W.W. and The Dixie Dancekings, and 1980's Smokey and the Bandit II.
In 2016, Williams decided that the time was right for his final performance, calling it a career after one of the most successful careers in the history of the Country Music business. "It's time to hang my hat up and enjoy some quiet time at home. I'm so thankful for my fans, my friends and my family for their everlasting love and support," the 76-year-old Williams said in a statement at the time. Last year also saw the final release of Williams' career, a live CD and DVD recorded in Ireland. In 2017, the singer was the subject of a tribute album, Gentle Giants: The Songs of Don Williams, that included performances of his hits by artists such as Lady Antebellum and Garth Brooks.
Fellow country stars took to Twitter on Friday afternoon to express their condolences.

Q: How do I log from an Extension? I'm writing new Extension code and want to log to a file for debugging purposes.
I've tried using the print() function to write to ~/.cache/gdm/session.log as explained here: http://codeisland.org/2013/making-gnome-shell-extensions/
This does not work. Does print() write elsewhere? Also, I see that other extensions use log(). Where can I view the output of that?
Is any of this documented anywhere?

A: You can find an answer in this topic : How to test / debug GNOME Shell extensions? Is there any tool for that?
Some features are outdated, but you can use in a terminal :
gnome-shell --replace &

or
journalctl -f

Every log(blabla); in your extension will be printed in the terminal.
