Sri Lanka Cornered Over Human Rights

COLOMBO, Sep 3 2013 (IPS) - That it would be a visit fraught with diplomatic tension was undoubted. Navanetham 'Navi' Pillay, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, was into the third day of her week-long visit from Aug. 25 to Aug. 31 to Sri Lanka when her entourage broke into animated discussion.
They were in the heart of Mullaittivu district in Sri Lanka's Northern Province (NP), where some of the bloodiest battles in the last chapter of the war between Sri Lanka and separatist rebel group Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) were fought in the summer of 2009, ending a conflict that had lasted almost 30 years.
The discussion was about media access. Several representatives of international media organisations in capital Colombo had followed Pillay 390 km to the north. At least two had trailed her right up to Mullaittivu, the second leg of her visit after a morning spent in NP capital Jaffna, 117 km to the north.
"We encourage people to come and see for themselves rather than be guided by propaganda." -- Sri Lankan foreign minister Gamini Lakshman Peiris
While Pillay's staff from the U.N. Human Rights Council (UNHRC) in Geneva was willing to allow the media, especially international correspondents, access to her meetings with war-displaced returnees and kin of the missing, officials of the U.N. country team were nervous.
And rightly so, as it turned out when Pillay ended her visit in Colombo four days later.
According to the Sri Lankan government, the U.N. office in Colombo had instructed the media not to follow the high commissioner during her visit to Mullaittivu. Yet they did so, presumably on the invitation of her spokesperson, Rupert Colville, to witness Pillay paying floral tributes to those who had perished in the final battle at Nanthikadal Lagoon in Mullaittivu.
As a Sri Lanka government media communiqué put it, "It was pointed out by the Sri Lankan side to the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights' delegation that if such a gesture needed to be made, it should be done at a venue common to all victims of the 30-year terrorist conflict and not on the grounds where the leader [of the Tamil Tigers, Velupillai Prabhakaran] met his death."
As it happened, Pillay never made that floral tribute. She later said she honoured those who died in conflict in every country she visited, and it was not meant as a unique gesture for Sri Lanka.
The visit concluded with no further incident or diplomatic discord. But by the time Pillay left Sri Lanka, the tensions were out in the open. In the five-and-a-half page parting statement she read out to the media just before her departure, Pillay, while lauding the Sri Lankan government for the development work it had initiated in the former LTTE strongholds, also called it to account for the continuing human rights abuse, the persecution of religious minorities and the militarisation of the north, among other things.

Pillay's Sri Lankan visit was a follow-up on the recommendations of the crucial Mar. 21 U.N. resolution, seeking action from the government on lingering allegations of human rights abuse. And her assessment was scathing. "I am deeply concerned that Sri Lanka, despite the opportunity provided by the end of the war to construct a new vibrant, all-embracing state, is showing signs of heading in an increasingly authoritarian direction."
The government of President Mahinda Rajapaksa dismissed it as a political statement on her part, something which transgressed her mandate and the basic norms "a discerning" international civil servant should observe.
"The judgment on the leadership of the country is better left for the people of Sri Lanka to decide, than being caricatured by external entities influenced by vested interests," the government said in a counter-statement to the media.
"She has her own agenda," said Ithakandhe Sadathissa, a Buddhist monk and head of the National Organisation of Ravana Power, a nationalist group that held protests outside the U.N. compound on two occasions during her visit. "She has come here to gather facts so that she can go back and criticise the country, the government," he told IPS.
Others like housing and engineering services minister Wimal Weeravansha and government spokesperson and media minister Keheliya Rambukwella too accused Pillay of having a pre-set agenda.
"We encourage people to come and see for themselves rather than be guided by propaganda," Sri Lankan foreign minister Gamini Lakshman Peiris had said during a visit to Indian capital New Delhi a few days before Pillay arrived. "We want the world to see what is happening in Sri Lanka."
In the run-up to that visit, the government had set up a new presidential commission to look into forced disappearances and commenced work on bringing in stricter legislation against it.
The longest of her visits to 60 countries so far, Pillay managed to interact with a wide range of representatives, something she thanked the Sri Lankan government for.
In Jaffna, she met a group of 15 representatives from the 300-odd relatives of missing persons demonstrating outside the Jaffna Public Library. "It has been four years since the end of the war, people need answers to what happened to their loved ones," said Rev Father Emmanuel Sebamalai, a Catholic priest from the northwestern Mannar district, who was among the demonstrators.
"They came to meet her because they felt that she could give them some redress," he told IPS.
Apart from her field visits, Pillay also participated in an event commemorating the Day of the Disappeared in Colombo on Aug. 31. "The high commissioner has promised to help us," Sandya Ekanaligoda, wife of cartoonist Prageeth Ekanaligoda, missing since January 2010, told IPS. "I will continue the search for my husband," she said.
The concerns Pillay raised prior to her departure are likely to figure in the oral submission she will make to the UNHRC towards September-end. She is also likely to bring up allegations that police and military officials have visited civilians and activists she met and spoke with.
"Pillay's visit will help keep Sri Lanka on UNHRC's agenda," Ruki Fernando, a local rights activist, told IPS.
"Her report to the council will indicate whether the changes taking place in Sri Lanka are superficial or genuine," Ming Yu, a researcher with Amnesty International, Australia, told IPS.

Navanetham 'Navi' Pillay
United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights
The Sinhalese and their leaders believe that they are the majority and they can rule the nation that way they want including denial of human rights, rule of law, transparency, justice, R2P to the minority – the Tamils and the Muslims.
These are simply hooligans and will continue to deny independent free access to media personnel, diplomats, journalists, human rights activists and defenders and already 35 Journalists disappeared since 2005 under this regime. The civilized world take an account of the menace that this regime unleash on the civilian population by intimidating, bullying, threatening, attacking and silencing those seek justice and demand for protection under the law.
This Sinhala race is only in Sri Lanka who has no clue about the International law,
norms and democratic values but only believes and practices violence, barbarianism, mockery and full impunity to those commit crimes against humanity, abducting, torturing and murdering dissidents and the civilians.
Delay in taking action means more and more crimes are committed and more and
more casualties of civilians. The International community should have an
independent monitoring ground force to gather information of the ground
situation and crimes committed and continue the push for an independent
international investigation as the regimes continues to drag its feet
and cover up crimes against humanity.
The International community must put an end to bullying and intimidating tactics used by the regime, branding those who demand for justice as sympathizers of the
LTTE or in the payroll of the LTTE and maliciously accuse them as agents of the Tamil terrorists and they got an agenda despite they demand for an independent transparent investigation of all crimes committed in Eelam and in Sri Lanka.
Kirthi Jayasekera
Lord or what ever your agenda of installing Eelam in srilanka with the help of international community is only a dream. As you say the Sinhala hooligans have only Srilanka, so they will keep it that way. If the minorities want to live in the hooligan country, be in peace with the hooligans.
Obamasal
Many leaders and media both local and international that are concerned about humanity and human rights made statements and passed two UN resolutions in order to seek redress to those victims of such aggressive activities. How what UN HRC High Commissioner did is diferent is open and frank in her statements of facts and urged the SL government to do something urgently to address the long standing problems. There is no sign that anything will happen to the victims as they are surrounded by a large number of SL security forces that is composed of ethnic majority. The occupying forces see to it that colonisation of the minorities continue unabated.
Why is this human rights issues coming only after the tiger terrorists were defeated and also only at the end of the war. Lets investigate all crimes in the 30 year long war. Where were the human rights saviors at that time when tiger terrorists were anhilating people of all communities irrespective whether young or old but civilians of all hues to fulfill their agenda. The only thing Pillai couldn't do was to lay flowers for the big terrorist at Nandikadal. You can't fool all the people all the time. They deserved what they got for the crimes they commited.
Perhaps they should do that. Then they will find out that the Terrorist were the Sinhalese Lankans themselves. Orchestrating various Gulf of Tonkin incidents to win the west over. Ban in place they moved on NAZI style. Now they've been found out so they want everyone else to take a hike. They killed the Vedha off, kicked out the Burghers, now decimating the native Eelam Tamils & now working on the Muslims.
Grave misjudgement and mistakes were made by both, the LTTE and the Government. There were ample opportunities provided along the way to find peace means of coexistence and were never followed through to lack of leadership. What Srilanka need is " Lee Kuan Yew" ( ex PM of Siggapore) moment to come out , otherwise slide into anarchy.
Yes, we must investigate all crimes in the 30 year war. All the countries banned LTTE, but in the case of Sri Lankan government which is also alleged to have committed HR and war crimes they want just an independent investigation, here, too, they include LTTE. Pillai is not at all worried about "big terrorist" but civilians, reported to be in excess of 70,000 by the UN internal inquiry. Again you are right no one can fool all the people all the time. The very leaders who boasted 'zero civilian casualty' was forced to admit '9000 deaths' by the international community. Wait and see, more to come, they cannot bury the truth for ever.
Will you persuade the government to agree to investigate all the crimes alleged to have been committed by both parties over 30 year period?
Exactly that's what srilanka needs, and the majority is prepared for it, if the other party leave aside their racist demands, that come one after the othe making it impossible for any head way. Their only aim is separatism by any means. They should think otherwise and live like Srilankans as in other provinces.
Come on where was a war fought and concluded with zero casualties. In your dreams. Why is this war very different to other wars. War is fought to win not to lose, and losers don't cry foul, and ask for investigations etc.
Sinniah Sivagnanasun
Pillay`s visit will help keep SL on UNHCR agenda Must come true.
It is you people that have a skewed dream. If empires can fall then you so would you fiefdom. We will be free, we will be free, we will be free! "And when the long fight, has been fought and won, We'll stand in the sun,And we will raise out hands, And we will touch the sky,Together we will dance in robes of gold!"
what sri lanka needs to do is to live in their part of the island of Ceylon. What Eelamites need is their own country in their part of the island of Ceylon.
you people should live in your provinces & leave our country alone. Tamil Eelam is for eelam tamils. You go live in srilanka, which happens to be in the southern part of the island of ceylon… else you can always go back to bengal
In Tamil Nadu
Your part is in Tamil Nadu
You can dance anywhere with hands raised or down wearing golden or what ever crap, yes you are free to do it in Srilanka But the best places for such a grand show would be London, Canada or some European capital as there will be the masters to applaud you for a native dance they haven't seen.
We will never do it in Sri Lanka-that is you country with the appropriately named "Devil Dance". Our dance will be in our homeland Tamil Eelam. RajaPuka & his Nelum Poka together with all hiss pukas will go up in a big bang & even Keheliya Borukolla won't be able to save youy. And giving away the puka of the little boy for which are so famous for will not save your arse (get the pun 😉 ) The Europeans that gave you our land.. so they are your masters. They tied our hands for you as you told them pokies about us & banned us & what not… & they are still our masters?? An obvious case where "puk kolla" has got his head up his own arse
RajaPuka stadium,RajaPuka highway, RajaPuka port & his Nelum Puka all go up wonder if you'd still say war has casualties O would you go crying to the west with oh terrorist terrorist… wonder how many times you'd get away with crying wolf? People whose only source of income is renting the PUKA of their children ought not to try pissing people off too much.
Tamil eelam is our homeland. Yours is genocidal Devil land a bit like
your dance.. is it a coincidence that you all are called the SinHELLa
race . Tamil Nadu is our neighbour land you lot our enemy land. go away
puk kolla!
It's not I or anyone else who dreamed 'zero civilian casualty' it was the Sri Lankan leaders who boasted it saying that soldiers carried gun in one hand and HR book in the other. Again it is not the losers that demand investigations but the world body whose rules and regulations were fornulated by the member countries including Sri Lanka. The claims and counter-claims of the government and LTTE supporters can only be verified by investigations. It will have twin edged advantage.
You are brilliant, perhaps Jhon Lennon's imagine can help you.Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Sharing all the world…
You dream all you imagine, we will live ours!
Imagine all the people living as one in the world
You and we are brothers
That's the way we should live
We will stive to do it
That's the vision of Srilanka.
Imagine…………it goes on
You and your fellow Sri Lankans are brothers & so live together & be happy in your homelands with your strange version Buddhism. Let us Eelam Tamils live in peace in our homeland. Eelam Tamils & Sinhalese are not brothers we never will now or in the future.Dream your imaginations as you please, just leave us alone!
Come on if you are Srilankan it is your homeland too, just like the thousands who live in wellawtte , Kandy etc. they are happy and doing well. All provinces are our homeland as well as Tamils, who are Srilankan. If you can get that concept there is no problem. Actually we are happy to share hope you Tamils too think differently and shed your racist homeland concept and share Jaffna with all citizens in the country just like we have done.
Unless you treat other ethnic communities as equals they do not feel happy and on par. If you force your language on them (Sinhala Only), your religion on them by demilishing their places of worship and build Buddhist viharas everywhere, recruit only Sinhalese to police, army, navy and airforce, elect president, prime ministers and 98% minisers always from ethnic majority they feel being colonised. On top of it display Sinhalese speaking soldiers among Tamil speaking population they feel suffocated and you say to them we are all equal, DO you expect them to believe you?
It is a hard fact that Sinhalese are more than 79% . What can we do about it.
Those who preach to live in harmony think others have short memories. What about all the communal riots unleashed against the Tamils. If the Tamils not had a place to go all would have been perished now. Remember the dogs who massacred, burnt alives even young as 1 month old babies. A cruel race called Sinhalese and follows Buddah prechings
well they can be 100% sinHELLese in their own country -so go live in Sri Lanka which lies in the southern part of the island of Ceylon & let us live in peace in our part of the island in our country Tamil Eelam!
look at the woman in the picture – a Sin-Hell-ese woman… how perfectly well she epitomises the yakkas in you all!
She looks more Tamil than SinHellaya.
She is definitely Sinhalese but maybe her great grand mothers were not boinked by Portuguese sailors like the vast majority of coastal Sinhala Pereras, Silvas and Fernandos. ha ha ha
The European colonialists annexed our homeland with the Sinhala homeland, we will make the present day Europeans to correct the mistake of their forefathers.
Sinhalese are the one and ONLY historic enemies of Tamils.
Live in you land & let us live in peace in ours. Everything else is immaterial. Lion, state sponsored Budhist Nazis, HR, UN, XYZ… who care …. Just get out of our homeland!
It should be the other way around. Please read history. Did Sinhala ever invade Tamil Nadu. If one force in to the neighbors house and try to evict him saying he is the intruder, and call international policeman, nothing can be done.

The UNHRC should try and educate the SL Government on the UN Charter and on all the laws applicable including outcomes for serious transgressions of such laws. That is key to a better future for ALL. Merely signing international documents for publicity's and propaganda sake is not enough. There is responsibility to observe such laws to the very letter. If not an equal responsibility is cast on the UN to act.


This is the first detailed account of the life and ideas of A Yusuf Ali, whose 'The Holy Qur'an: Text, Translation and Commentary' is the most widely used English translation of the Qur'an. This is a candid and sympathetic study that draw on Yusuf Ali's writings and private papers, as well as unpublished sources.
This biography is the first detailed account of the life and ideas of a leading Muslim of his day who represented British India on the world stage. Yusuf Ali came to prominence in the Great War (WWI) for his outspoken support of the Indian contribution to the Allied effort, and in the decades to follow established a reputation within India and internationally as an educationalist. Sir Muhammed Iqbal sought him out as a principal of Islamia College, Lahore. Yusuf Ali is most famous in the English-speaking Muslim world for a major work of 20th century Islamic scholarship -- his The Holy Qur'an: Text, Translation and Commentary, published in 1934. This book is of special interest to Muslims originating from the subcontinent (e.g. India, Pakistan), where most of the book takes place.
Searching for Solace isn't exclusively about Yusuf Ali's work on the Quran. It is divided into two parts. The first is a "chronological account of his life and the second draws out the themes most prominent in his activities and speeches".


MUMBAI: Defending champions Minerva Punjab FC are just one step away from their second Nike Premier Cup title in as many years. After carving out a close 1-0 win over Bengaluru FC colts, Minerva will now face another Bengaluru side Ozone FC, who defeated Shillong Lajong FC in the first semi-final.
Both the teams started on a cautious note playing end to end football but failing to break opposition defence. Minerva seemed a slightly a better side having managed a couple of shots that went off target. But in the 22nd minute, Minerva forward went down injured as he was soon replaced by Nongdamba Naorem.
Soon BFC came in the game with midfielder Amay Morajkar pulling the strings but in the end failing to break the deadlock. Both teams entered the break at score 0-0.
The second half started with blues looking to attack the right but it was Minerva that took the lead in the 50th minute. Striker Sahajahan's perfect corner found substitute Nongdamba in place as he headed the ball straight into the net.
Blues started to attack in search of equaliser with a flurry of attacks but Minerva defence held on. In the last ten minutes, Bengaluru boys came very close in finding the net with a couple of free-kicks and some corners but failed to make any difference on the score-line.
In the first minute of injury time, Minerva had a chance to finish off the game with two close-range efforts being brilliantly saved by Blues defence. Minerva held on to the lead for the final few minutes without much trouble as the game ended 1-0.
Minerva Punjab will now face Ozone FC for the final of Nile Premier Cup on 10th Feb.


'There's scarcely a day when my heart does not weep': the plight of Flemish and Walloon women in the 1560s revealed in letters to their families in England.
Alastair Duke became Reader in History at the University of Southampton, retiring in 2001. Gained his doctorate at Leiden University and has written quite widely on the religious history of the early modern Low Countries, including the strangers who took refuge in England, and on the Dutch Revolt. In 2007 he published Dissident Identities in the Early Modern Low Countries.
The scarcity of correspondence from ordinary people in the sixteenth century makes the survival of the two collections of letters under discussion here especially remarkable. Through them we can eavesdrop on the lives of Netherlanders disrupted by the religious and political upheavals of the 1560's. Among the letters are a few from women left behind in Flanders and Wallonia when their Protestant menfolk sought refuge in London and south-eastern England. This talk will focus on their poignant letters, which reveal both their tenacity as they confronted the difficulties of bringing up their families in an often hostile environment and demonstrate their literacy.

Usually, though, people who have those large orders will place them at least a couple hours in advance. It is still strange when someone walks in by themselves and asks for >20 burgers.

SOCIAL HOUSING.
Competition in Riberas de Loiola, Donostia-san Sebastián (Gipuzkoa). 2021
It seems that the plot is a meeting place, of corners or limits. The small plot stands out for being a wayward and particular point within the fabric of the Riberas de Loiola neighborhood. It is a place that can dominate the last meander of the Urumea River, almost at its mouth, and look over Egia and Gros to the Cantabrian Sea, if it is built with slenderness. And so we have proposed the new building of endowment accommodation, slender and growing in height towards the sea. When ascending towards the sea, the houses are oriented towards the east, for the most part, those that are not oriented towards the south. Thus, the views of the houses are directed towards the dawn between Mount Ulía and Ametzagaina Park.
The growing building begins low to the south, to allow the sun to enter the interior of the plot, and curls around itself forming a concave space on the west side. In this way, the building is separated from the existing buildings and forms its own square, protected from the noise of the nearby vehicular routes and will remain sunny all year round.
View of the proposal in its urban environment.
The plot has a compromised position. Very close to it, and in the optimal east and south orientations, a communications node develops that is a source of noise and circulatory stress. The proposed building functions as a large architectural and urban acoustic screen.
In addition, the houses turn towards the outside of the plot and the air-conditioned gallery system runs through the interior of the building looking at the square. These access galleries widen at their ends, to the north in a wide viewpoint towards the sea, and to the south to provide ample space for adapted homes.

Harry Houdini's Rare Magic Books
October 28, 2014 by Jennifer Harbster
Harry Houdini's personal bookplate which is on each book in his library held by the Library of Congress.
The following is a guest post authored by Elizabeth Gettins, a Digital Conversion Specialist for the Library's Rare Book and Special Collections (RBSC). She has worked on multiple RBSC digital collections through the years such as the Kraus Collection of Sir Francis Drake, the Miller NAWSA Suffrage Scrapbooks and the Alfred Whital Stern Collection of Lincolniana .
Harry, are you here?
I whispered under my breath as the vault door closed behind me. There I stood deep in the stacks that house Harry Houdini's library at the Library of Congress. How can I be so irreverent, I thought to myself, but just the same it seemed an appropriate question to ask of the straight jacket escape artist. If anyone could communicate from the dead it would be Harry Houdini.
I have been working on the digitization of the Library's magic tomes and had the pleasure of visiting the contents of Harry Houdini's Library quite often. Houdini amassed one of the largest libraries in the world on psychic phenomena, spiritualism, magic, witchcraft, demonology and the like, with material dating as early as 1489. In 1927, through Houdini's bequest, the Library received 3,988 volumes from his collection. His collection is strongest in 19th and 20th century publications on spiritualism, as one of Houdini's main interests was to debunk the mediums of his day.
Title page of "Revelations of a spirit medium," with illustration of a seance, published in St. Paul, Minnesota, 1891
While Houdini was hot on the trail of exposing mediums during his lifetime, following his death his widow Beatrice (Bess) conducted séances. For many years she would attempt to channel the ghost of Houdini on the eve of his death which eerily falls on October 31st. Houdini remained silent during these yearly séances and I myself never saw or heard anything while in the Library's book stacks which goes to support Mr. Houdini's claims that mediums and the like are nonsense.
But just maybe, perhaps this Halloween, on the 88th anniversary of his death, Mr. Houdini will make a visit to his Library deep in the cold, dark vaults of the Library of Congress.
To view even more items on magic and the like, see: Materials on Science, Magic and Mathematics which is a multi-collection compilation of seminal books on these topics.
Although it does not represent the true location of the vault that contains Houdini's library, you might find this lighthearted video of Penn & Teller with Houdini at the Library of Congress amusing. This video is taken from the 1990 Memory and Imagination: New Pathways to the Library of Congress documentary (Michael Lawrence Films/Krainin Productions).
Need more Houdini?
Mark Dimunation, chief of Rare Books and Special Collections, talks to the History Channel about Houdini's scrapbook in Magical Momentos . There is also a Harry Houdini, Master Magician guide that will lead you to historic newspapers articles about Houdini that can be found in the Chronicling America: American Historic Newspapers digital collection.
Happy Halloween to one and all!

Steven and Leah Jensen welcome you and thank you for dining at Maxwell's.
As the new owners of Maxwell's Beach Café, our plan is to continue building on the traditions and quality that have characterized the restaurant since its founding by Lewis Casson in 1986.
We plan for Maxwell's to remain the premier dining establishment of the Iowa Great Lakes with a menu that includes Iowa beef and pork products, classic cosmopolitan dishes, and an extensive wine list — in addition to excellent service and a classic fine-dining ambiance.
We also bring to Maxwell's an understanding of and commitment to the lakes region, both of us having spent almost every summer of our lives in the Okoboji area. We met at Emerald Hills Golf Course on July 1, 2013 and got engaged at Maxwell's on July 1, 2017. Going forward, we will be living in the lakes area.
Both of us also have had substantial experience working in the restaurant and hospitality business. Now, we are proud to be the owners of a fine-dining establishment that has been widely recognized by an array of publications for its breathtaking views of West Lake Okoboji and for providing an exceptional dining experience.
With the assistance of the previous owners, Lewis Casson and Julie Roth, we are working to make your dining experience satisfying, enjoyable and memorable.

Everyone needs to save for the unexpected. When you have nothing in reserve, anything unexpected becomes an emergency that has to go on a credit card.
It could be a job loss or medical bill — or something as small as a car repair or a lost phone. A financial buffer can keep you afloat in a time of need and let you recover without going into debt. That's why an emergency fund is more important when you're barely scraping by, rather than later on, when you might have more savings, better credit, home equity or a higher income.
"One of the first steps in climbing out of debt is to give yourself a way to not go further into debt," says Liz Weston, NerdWallet columnist.
To build an emergency fund, consider these questions.
The exact answer to this depends on your financial circumstances and how much insurance you have, but a good rule of thumb is to have enough to cover three to six months' worth of living expenses. This can give you enough time, for instance, to find a new job or supplement your unemployment benefits until you do.
But anything in the bank is better than nothing — and $500 will get you out of many scrapes that would otherwise put you in the hole.
Since an emergency can strike at any time, having quick access to your cash is crucial. Consider a savings account, since the money will be safe and you'll be able to withdraw it without hassle. This should be a separate account from one you use daily so you're not tempted to dip into your reserves.
What steps do I take to start an emergency fund?
Set a monthly savings goal.This will get you into the habit of saving regularly and will make the task less daunting. Contributing a small percentage from each paycheck, for instance, is one way to do this.
Keep the change.When you get $1 and $5 bills after breaking a $20, drop some in a jar at home. When the jar fills up, move it into your savings account.
Tidy up your checking account.If there's money left at the end of a pay period, move some into your emergency fund.
Save your tax refund. The average refund is in the thousands, which can give a good boost to your emergency savings. (See "9 Smart Ways to Spend Your Tax Refund.") When you file your taxes, consider having your refund directly deposited into your emergency account. Alternatively, adjust your W-4 tax form so that you have less money withheld, and direct the extra into your emergency fund.
Cut back on costs.If you're falling short on saving, see which parts of your monthly spending you can trim. Some ways to do this include carpooling, cooking meals at home, saving leftovers and avoiding small daily purchases like takeout coffee. Put the money in your emergency fund as you "save" it.
Assess and adjust contributions.Check in after a few months to see how much you're saving, and adjust if you need to put in more. This is especially important if you go through a major life event such as marriage or a move to a new city.
Holidays, birthdays and mental pick-me-ups for yourself or significant others.
A car repair if you can hitch a ride or take the bus.
A great deal on something you don't need.
Expenses that aren't surprises, like car insurance.
Draw a line between savings for emergencies and savings for anything else. In fact, once you've hit a reasonable threshold of emergency savings, Weston says, it's a good idea to begin another account for irregular but inevitable items such as car maintenance, vacations and clothing.

CS50 edx Harvard is the basis for this class. There are several instructors who go above and beyond to help!
I am fortunate to have learned from Tech901's IT Foundations- Security + for CompTia training and CCENT and CCNA for Cisco Networking + bootcamps in Memphis. Most bootcamps are out of town or way too pricey for my budget. Never would I have had the opportunity to participate in a bootcamp otherwise. This bootcamp has been a great convenience by it being held a a convent time of the day and at a great location at the University of Memphis, The Sears Crosstown Concourse and the Boys and Girls Club. I feel much more knowledgeable of the areas where I have been trained. It was impossible for me to learn these subjects on my own. I look forward to training in the upcoming Security +, Project +, Hardware Technician and Coding 1.0 (Intro to Computer Science in the future.
When I first applied for the Code 1.0 class at Tech901, I expected that it would be more of a class where I would learn how to solve problems step by step using what was given to me by my professors(in this case, the videos from Harvard University). I also expected it to be more of a liberal arts class, similar to the foundations Computer Science class that I took back at Rhodes College, Memphis, Tennessee. However, as soon as I enrolled in the class, I realized that it was not the experience that I was looking for, which put me at a disadvantage when it came time to actually solving the problems. As such, I had to get help from not only my professors and peers but also my mom, who is a hard-core, "you better learn to love it" sort of programmer, which seemed alright until I started telling the professors that I more of a writer and even told them that for someone like me, it would take at least a month or two for me to learn C language, which they did not take so lightly. One of them even said that writers were stupid when I told him that the average short story writer takes two months to write a story. So far, the only thing that has kept me in the class are my classmates, who are very nice, intelligent individuals.
Perhaps this is because I am still new to programming, but I will say, for a class that promised me the opportunity to put my writing skills to practice in a new environment, this is by far the most disappointing experience that I have ever been in. To any of you writers and other creative people looking for a job after college, but do not want to go into teaching whatsoever, DO NOT take this class or any other coding boot camp class. They're not interested in your love of pursuing knowledge, even when they say that they do. Schools should be places where you learn for the sake of learning.
Course was cheap and I'm actually learning a lot! Be prepared to spend at least 20 hours a week on coursework!
Any other information you'd like to share with Jenny Carmichael from Tech901?
By submitting, I acknowledge that my information will be shared with Tech901.
An email with these details has been sent to Tech901.

public domain music trouble
by Hugh
I was on a panel about copyright at the media and democracy conference, with Tina Piper and Owen Chapman. Someone asked about Public Domain music, and I said, yes there is a site, but I can't remember what.
Well, via Geist, it appears the International Music Score Library Project, a volunteer, non-profit public domain music score project (canadian too), has been shut down, we hope temporarily because of nasty letters from a Toronto Law firm, engaged by an Austrian music publisher, Universal AG.
The substance of the claim is that while much of the music *is* public domain in Canada, it is not public domain in the EU, and because IMSLP.org is a web site that does not restrict where downloaders are coming from, then it is in violation of copyright law. Essentially this would mean that wherever in the world the longest copyright term exists, that term must be applied in all countries, regardless of the copyright laws in host country. Which, as Geist and Boing Boing point out, means that the concept of public domain online would ultimately disappear (as there could always be another country with a longer copyright term). Says Geist:
As for a European infringement, if UE is correct, then the public domain becomes an offline concept, since posting works online would immediately result in the longest single copyright term applying on a global basis. That can't possibly be right. Canada has chosen a copyright term that complies with its international obligations and attempts to import longer terms – as is the case here – should not only be rejected but treated as copyright misuse.
LibriVox has had similar claims from copyright lawyers over the past couple of years, and we pushed back (with the help of Project Gutenberg), with our most compelling claim being:
Project Gutenberg has done exhaustive research over the years on this subject, and has not found any indication that the copyright laws of one country will have any force in any other country, even in cases of publishing materials on the Internet or the World Wide Web…
However, if you do come across any new case law or rulings that might effect some change, please let us know and we will discuss with our informal advisers at Project Gutenberg, so that they can update their research concerning such cases. As always, we will follow the legal standard that Project Gutenberg uses.
I've contacted IMSLP.org to offer moral and any other support I can, on behalf of LibriVox.
UPDATE1: Howard Knopf has significant commentary over at Excess Copyright.
UPDATE2:Heather Morrison comments on Geist's blog with this little bit of brilliance:
If IP filters are the way to go, then it should be the country with the extended copyright laws that should take the responsibility for filtering out!
Then, when their citizens figure out that they have access to much less than everyone else in the world, they can take their own government to task and demand better laws!

Llorenç Serra Ferrer (* 5. März 1953 in Sa Pobla, Mallorca) ist ein spanischer Fußballtrainer.

Karriere
Ferrer wurde 1985 Trainer von RCD Mallorca und konnte mit dem Klub den Aufstieg in die Primera División erreichen.
Nach acht Jahren bei RCD Mallorca wurde er 1993 Trainer von Betis Sevilla. Auch diesem Klub verhalf er zum Aufstieg in die Primera División 1994. In der darauffolgenden Saison konnte er mit Betis einen hervorragenden dritten Platz erreichen, wodurch man sich für den UEFA-Pokal 1995/96 qualifizieren konnte.

1997 wechselte er zum FC Barcelona, wo er bis 2000 die Jugendabteilung trainierte. Nachdem sich Barcelona 2000 von Louis van Gaal trennte, wurde Ferrer zur Saison 2000/01 Chefcoach des FC Barcelona. Diese Saison begann mit dem frühen Ausscheiden in der 1. Gruppenphase der Champions League enttäuschend. Als Barça dann am 31. Spieltag dieser Saison gegen CA Osasuna 1:3 verlor und auf den fünften Platz in der Liga abrutschte, wurde Ferrer entlassen und durch Carles Rexach ersetzt.

2004 wurde er wieder bei Betis Sevilla als Trainer engagiert. In der Saison 2004/05 konnte er den spanischen Pokal gewinnen und in der Liga den vierten Platz erreichen, der zur Teilnahme an der Champions League berechtigte.

Zwischen Sommer 2006 und Februar 2008 war er Coach von AEK Athen.

Unfaithfulness is a severe criminal activity for a lot of people, and also this criminal activity is certainly not onlyagainst your partner but in addition against love and pleasure. Becoming led by their particular egoistic desires and cheating on the husband that is legitimate or genuine spouse, the unfaithful partner eliminates love and trust, dangers dropping Happiness and family along. Needless to say, each grouped household possesses its own traits. In a few partners, love and value haven't already been there. Yet, you are if you are legally married but cheating on your spouse maybe maybe perhaps maybe not performing perfectly!
All things considered, you not merely deceive but additionally harm anyone that is maybe perhaps not just a complete stranger to you personally, whom begun to stay to you perhaps maybe maybe not without your permission to it. But we have been perhaps maybe maybe perhaps not planning to blame and condemn any person for unfaithfulness. We simply would you like to show you, dear visitors, the reason the reason why men and women cheat for each various various various other and just exactly just just what it contributes to. And, having said that, ways to get over unfaithfulness. Maybe, thisarticle will conserve somebody from unneeded blunders which help anyone to forgive infidelity by comprehending its major reason.
Partners cheat for different explanations, but in the middle of every such explanation could be the want to get satisfaction – more satisfaction. With this explanation, unfaithfulness is regarded as becoming an egoistic work and that's the reason it is hard for anyone to discover a reason. Consequently, this is actually the real cause of unfaithfulness. You'll be able to chat just as much as you would like about why a spouse cheated for a partner: away from payback, due to dissatisfaction, if not as a result of enthusiasm.
Most likely, whenever partners cheat, they generate a selection in support of really wants to the detriment for the religious convenience for the lover they cheat on. To count on someone, you'll want to be dependable also. Individuals must trust each various other. But unfaithfulness eliminates the trust. And also this is all-natural. Therefore, whenever infidelity, a person betrays yourself up to an extent that is certain since partners destroy the fundamentals upon which they could depend inside a tough minute. a dedicated partner or even a dedicated spouse will inevitably hold an insult within on their own that. Consequently, will it be very important what became the reason for unfaithfulness, if fundamentally all of it boils down to your undeniable fact that the egoism of just one individual eliminates the trust of some other individual. Life defintely won't be the same anyhow.
Some individuals cheat on the husbands and spouses, simply not great deal of thought one thing unsatisfactory. This might be definitely regular for all of all of all of all of them. It does not appear for them as an immoral behavior. Other people merely don't realize whatever they are performing and exactly exactly just just what their particular activities may bring about. If somebody is overrun by enthusiasm, then some instincts come, which entirely turn off their particular brain and so he (she) does not understand what he (she) has been doing. Consequently, after a few years, the one who has cheated regrets in what taken place. Their particular conscience torments all of all of all of them, they repent and request forgiveness. Such instances tend to be not unusual. Of course, due to infidelity, the relationship additionally breaks up, it may be an extremely price that is high a person who were unsuccessful to take over over yourself with regards to ended up being essential.
You don't need to deliver the problem inside your life to a continuing condition for which you cannot control yourself, in order to not ever make unneeded blunders. Appropriately, one should not enable their particular wife or husband locate all of them in times by which the chances of cheating on the part becomes very high. You Shouldn't rely on decency and honesty of one's partner, because so many individuals are not very reasonable to limit by themselves obtaining pleasure, ignore their particular instincts by using head. Therefore, its not all person has the capacity to pass the test of urge. On the whole, folks are maybe maybe perhaps not insured against making blunders.
Yet another thing occurs when one is definitely fine about unfaithfulness. It really is currently hard to transform something in this case. If the partner feels regular about cheating, you will need often to simply accept it or even discoveranother wife or husband if your opinions tend to be compared. Usually do not make an effort to transform exactly exactly what happens to be created over time. It is extremely hard to do, and occasionally impossible after all. Just recognize that you can test the unfaithfulness with one eyes, as well as your spouse with other people. You will find men and women, which very sincerely never consider betrayal an immoral work. They don't realize why they must reject by themselves the satisfaction when they would you like to come right into a commitment with Another man or woman, whilst having a loved one.
Such folks have their particular beliefs that are own distinct from the philosophy of these whomcondemn unfaithfulness and address it adversely. It is really not essential to condemn all of all of all of them because of it. They have been absolve to stay while they desire. You can find, needless to say, individuals who like find bride for marriage to cheat to their spouse or, spouse at will, but they are categorically in opposition to cheating in it in the exact same time. For all of all of them, no-cost love must continue to be no-cost solely on their own, while their particular partner must stay faithful. Needless to say, you are able to transform an individual, but this will be a tremendously trial, needing specific problems and perhaps rather A time that is long. It really is much easier to discover another spouse or any other partner adhering towards the exact same values and views of life while you.
Firstly you need to ask whether you will get over unfaithfulness yourself. Individuals can prevent infidelity should they usually do not produce inside their life or perhaps in their particular partner's life situations that are such push for unfaithfulness. Needless to say, it is important to teach a individual from an age that is early many grownups can transform their particular views on life in the event that you show this extremely life in their mind through the opposite side getting all of all of them interested along with other values. For instance, we all knowthat not all social folks stick to family members values, maybe perhaps perhaps maybe not because they're maybe perhaps not interested because they know little about these values in them, but. They don't know exactly just exactly how great it really is to own a standard, powerful, friendly household. They don't realize just what pleasure is. And a guy cannot love and appreciate something which he will not understand and will not realize.
Consequently, before askin one to stop one thing, within our instance, unfaithfulness, you have to be shown for just what it ought to be done. It absolutely was currently pointed out above that infidelity could be the desire to have satisfaction, specially it issues husband's unfaithfulness plus in purchase to decline it, it is needed to see and feel a lot more delight, and that can be acquired compliment of a beneficial, delighted household for which individuals are truthful and love one another.
This is actually the best way to avoid unfaithfulness without prohibiting almost anything to any person. The prohibited good fresh fruit tastes the sweetest, but in order to make a tiny sacrifice for a purpose that is big rather appropriate for a lot of people. And, of program, keep in mind that you certainly do not need to manage other individuals while you don't want to be addressed the in an identical way. Therefore, while you see, going through unfaithfulness is certainly not a task that is simple!
Should your partner has actually cheated you have two options – either to forgive on you or leave. It's not advised to simply just simply simply take payback, as you won`t or that is solve alter something. Payback will certainly not need a good influence on your household glee. You simply devote the act that is same family joy will end. It's wise whenever you take revenge on opponents, which ultimately shows your power, the capability to operate on your own, shield your passions and occasionally permit you to restore some justice. Using payback on a companion will not deliver any advantages, aside from ethical pleasure, which dulls the discomfort skilled by a spouse that is devoted. Usually, such payback is meaningless.
You could begin cheating on the husband / partner also only for the benefit of enjoyment, and never away from payback if household values aren't vital that you you. Then there's no rely upon your loved ones after all. You either forgive your partner, because of the hope she is aware of the mistake and that he or claims to transform, or seek out someone else that is much much more and that is faithful much more truthful. Indeed, such one is quite difficult to locate, but feasible. Whenever there is a will there's an easy method. In this situation, payback will likely not re solve something.
Numerous thoughts occur being outcome of your ideas. We have a tendency to think precisely what our internal sound talks. Nonetheless, it frequently exaggerates or links activities from various life circumstances so that you can supply us with irrefutable research that life is finished. Many modern-day psychologists say that it's still feasible to recoup through the betrayal of a family member. But your will need a while. Just how long to obtain over unfaithfulness? As long as possible, it continues 2.5 many many years. Every one of us gets the possibility to fulfill a person that is new Whom you shall be at your very best. You will overlook the last.
Don't let your mental poison poison yourself. You recall the unfaithfulness for the explanation. Perhaps maybe Not as you are a definite person that is bad in a position to forgive someone or don't want to conserve the relationship. Almost certainly, your Feelings are trying to tell you that some presssing dilemmas stay unresolved and therefore your commitment has to be offered more interest. We have a tendency to see our lovers as we wish all of them is, never as they are really. For many explanation, we tend to be certain which they believe just as once we do. Attempt to see and take in someone not just talents, but also weaknesses. Know about the very fact That there is something unbearable and impossible for yourself.
This is basically the the very least pleasant advice that may seem impractical. But we quite often undervalue the energy of might. Its sources aren't endless, however it is even more complicated to manage yourself within a condition of emotional or actual stress. But, determination is adequate more often than not.
This indicates also apparent, but this plan is therefore quickly ignored. Whenever it involves unfaithfulness, the foundation of urge is just one individual. Theoretically, it really is more straightforward to stay away from one individual, however in rehearse it may be a colleague, next-door next-door neighbor, or buddy, the only that is continuously contained in life. Attempt to prevent somebody, maintain your length, nor be alone. Try not to fool your self because of the indisputable fact that regular group meetings can help the thoughts to cool off. Preventing method works whenever you are honest with your self.
Psychologists have indicated that if you succumb to urge as soon as, the nexttime it will probably be harder to withstand. If you soberly measure the consequences through the start, you might be almost certainly going to manage to pull yourself collectively over time.
This can be the essential strategy that is difficult reasonable for interactions. It is quite difficult for the companion to acknowledge that you would like to improve. Nonetheless, your coldness and silence cannot get unnoticed, and household members will endeavour to determine what occurred and just what their particular fault is. This can be a painful Conversation, but there is hope that the interlocutor shall be thankful forthe willingness to instead trust them of earning an act irreparable when it comes to commitment. It really is all-natural for an individual become weak before urge. But resisting temptation is an indicator for yourself and that you can be responsible your lover.
In spite of how much we condemn unfaithfulness, it will probably often be the right element of our life. It is hard to save lots of folks from what they're produced with. Within our community there may be individuals with an upbringing that is good a very ethical system of values with which you are able to create a delighted household. And there will be those for who unfaithfulness may be the norm, an individual is prepared to cheat on the beloved for one's own satisfaction. In a few situations, unfaithfulness might and should be forgiven, because individuals aren't perfect rather than therefore wise in order to avoid making errors.


A Face From Space To Play Terminator In THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES??
To Play Terminator In THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES??
I am – Hercules!! Spoilers ahead, so don't highlight the invisotext if you don't want to know: IGN reasonably theorizes that Summer Glau, she of "Firefly" and "Serenity" fame, will play a terminator, if not the terminator, in Fox's "The Sarah Connor Chronicles." Glau's role is apparently being kept a secret because the audience (and presumably the Connors) will not at first know she's a killer robot from the future. The proposed series, apparently set betwixt "Terminator 2" and "Terminator 3," stars 33-year-old Lena Headey ("The Brothers Grimm," "300") as Sarah and 19-year-old Thomas Dekker ("Heroes") as son John. Learn the reasoning behind IGN's theory here.

Q: What is the role of global trade management (GTM) in organizations today?
A: In today's world, GTM is more than compliance. GTM practitioners should think of GTM as standing on three equal pillars: compliance, supply chain finance, and global logistics. A holistic approach is necessary given the growing complexity—both in regulations and geography—of international trade.
Q: How can companies sell the importance of GTM to upper management?


Good morning everybody! Well if anybody missed out on my post last night, I had my WI #7 and lost another 5.6 lbs and 3 inches. I'm so happy and excited I just had to repost...lol. So a total of 30 lbs and 55.65 inches in 7 weeks. I love IP!!!
I'm gonna go to the grocery store today and see if I can find rhubarb and kale and try those recipes. They sound really good. Plus I have a bunch of spinach too I think I'll try that too. I have been trying a few other recipes, the turnip fries, cauliflower couscous and big mac in a bowl, so so good.
Congrats to all NSV's and SV's...those are great numbers and sizes. Way to go everybody, keep up the great work.
I had jello and kale chips for lunch yesterday and I kind of felt guilty about it because it was so delicious I felt like I was cheating lol.
Tina, right about the same time as you I had a similar week. I'd had AWESOME results, so I was used to seeing the scale make major changes. Something in my body triggered that day and I ended up losing 2.8 pounds at that weigh in, but every time I touched the scale before that I was actually UP for the week.
I'm not sure why our bodies do this, but try not to let it get you down--even if you don't lose pounds this week, THEY WILL COME OFF! Not only that, but you're losing inches almost as rapidly as you're losing pounds, so don't discount that.
Look for other things to celebrate--like wearing an old outfit you once loved or noticing thinner parts of your body. Also, remember to think about your health, too--the way you feel, the way your body is reacting to the foods you're consuming. Those things should help perk you up a little bit. As much as this is a diet, it's also a plan that rapidly increases your muscle mass, improves your health beyond what anything else would do, and helps you lose brain fog (at least it did for me).
Keep your chin up--pounds are certainly not the only important factor in this program!!
This is an awesome forum that constantly provides me with support. I hope you find it as great as I do.
I like the strawberry watermelon!!!! Its the only one I've tried and i love it! I also tried Walden Farms Sesame Ginger dressing and that was pretty good. I like a creamier dressing on my salad though so I am in search of the WF Ranch or Thousand Island I hope they are good!
oh congratulations I am so excited for you. Please keep us posted how phase 2 is going for you.
My last weeks weigh in was not that great, but not terrible. I did still lose 1.6 pounds. But everyday since I have watched my scale at home go down. I am super excited for my weigh in on Monday. If the weekend goes as well as this week I will be down 5 or more pounds!
I am definitely going to get out and buy some kale tonight. All this talk of kale chips is fascinating. I need to shake things up. I'm still pretty happy with my salads, veggies, and chicken, but I think my taste buds need a surprise.
Hello everyone!! I had a great day yesterday and like a few others I tried the kale chips!! They were fantastic!! I will try it with spinach also but I am excited that I added another veggie to my very small basket of likes when it comes to veggies!! Tonight I am giving the turnip fries... Good luck everyone for another good day with IP!!!
Today is my first day on the IP diet, and I have to say, I'm really excited. I feel like this is a diet that I can manage to do and not cheat, and also will be great to get my blood sugar numbers under control as I am a Type 1 diabetic. This weight has been creeping up on me for the last 4 years and it's time to ditch it! SOOO, we'll see, fingers crossed! Eating the cream of chicken soup for lunch, hopefully it's good!


That's when the Federal Open Market Committee, FOMC, the Fed's interest rate policy arm, will in all likelihood raise interest rates another 0.25%, the seventh such rate increase since the "liftoff" in interest rates in December 2015.
The market is currently putting the odds of a rate hike at 95%.
This is the most aggressive tempo of rate hikes of any major central bank and puts U.S. policy rates significantly higher than those in the U.K., Japan or eurozone.

Alma kindergarten class makes it work
This time a year ago, Alma kindergarten teacher Melissa Ellifrits was dealing with the typical late-semester sickness that comes with kids who still believe in the tooth fairy. (Never mind, when it comes to Santa Clause).
Things are far different heading into the Christmas Holiday season in 2020. Sickness is actually down.
But that's about the only subtle change for the veteran Alma primary teacher.
"This time last year, from half of November until now, I had half of my class missing," Ellifrits said. "This year, (sickness) is way down — I guess it's the extra precautions that we're taking."
Their flush faces covered with different colors of facemasks, Ellifrits' kindergarten students are scrolling through their Chromebooks as the clock closes in on 10:30 a.m. Each student is locked into the screen before them; there is no chatter.
Almost time for lunch.
It's been awkward the first four months of school, Ellifrits said. But the Class of 2033 is doing things those before them have been for decades.
Reading, writing, subtracting, and social distancing. (Oh, don't forget the facemasks).
Ellifrits believes social distancing, between the masks and constant hand sanitizing, has cut down on overcall sickness.
With the blessing from Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, Arkansas schools followed strict socially distanced guidelines to allow the first semester to run its course.
And, while athletic programs are grateful for their chance to play, it's equally important for kids just learning to find their way.
"I think it's everything," Ellifrits said. "I think we're making it work. I think it's everything for their social, emotional, and well being."
Ellifrits currently has 18 students in the class, she said.
It's now 10:35 a.m. as kids, almost on cue, prepare to have their hands sprayed with hand sanitizer.
"It's been more different than any other year," Ellifrits said. "There's a lot of challenges. With social distancing, it makes it hard. They're (students) very loving and want a hug, and I'm not going to turn down a hug.
"(But) it's definitely challenging trying to keep them socially distanced while trying to have some type of normalcy."
Going outside, even on cold December afternoons, is as important as ever — but comes with some restrictions.
"We go with our communities, which is a first-grade class and a second-grade class," Ellifrits said. "The playground is sectioned out into three different areas. One day we may get the swings and the slides ... we rotate each day."
Alma afforded students an opportunity to work remotely — something a lot of the older kids have benefitted from.
"At this age, I just don't think they learn virtually," Ellifrits said. "They can do some stuff online, but I just think it's everything for them to be here and be actively learning at school. Even though we have to be creative in the way we do stuff, which means they can't work in groups, they're still able to learn from other kids.
"We try to do as much as we can."


Pallavi Herekar developed a toolkit to help Colgate-Palmolive's global supply chain manufacturing sites with waste-heat recycling.
Pallavi Herekar was hired by Colgate-Palmolive to help them identify energy, carbon and cost savings opportunities associated with recycling of Waste-Heat. Herekar's engineering background combined with her MBA business skills helped in translating the technical work into meaningful business terms.
Herekar developed a Waste-Heat Recycler toolkit for use by Colgate-Palmolive's global supply chain manufacturing sites. As part of the assignment, Herekar participated on a multi-functional team at Colgate's Cambridge, Ohio manufacturing plant in a three-day Energy Treasure Hunt workshop. This event helped inform the design of the waste-heat toolkit and facilitated the inclusion of real-world examples.
The toolkit was formally presented to Colgate's senior supply chain management team and will soon be rolled out globally, with a potential business opportunity to reduce energy consumption, costs and carbon emissions by up to 10 percent in support of the company's environmental sustainability strategy and savings goals.
Pallavi Herekar Deepak, a student at the College of William & Mary, was hired as the 2014 EDF Climate Corps fellow at Colgate-Palmolive.
