U.N. Climate Summit Goes To Extra Time, But Ends With Major Questions Unresolved
The global climate talks in Madrid ended on Sunday – two days after its scheduled closing, and with little to show for the marathon session.
The Madrid-based summit, known as COP25, or generically as the U.N. Climate Change Summit, was intended as a time to hammer out the rules and commitments that would get the world's nations on track to meet the targets of the 2015 Paris climate accord. Instead, the talks showed deep divisions, as small countries highly vulnerable to rising seas and powerful storms were at odds with wealthy, high-emitting countries like the United States.

Among Ukraine's goals are prisoner exchanges, a cease-fire along the front, and Ukrainian control of the eastern border. Russia would like an end to Western sanctions that have led to economic stagnation.
FBI Is Investigating Pensacola Shooting As Terrorism
The FBI is investigating the shooting at Naval Air Station Pensacola on Friday as an act of terror.
Rachel Rojas, the special agent in charge of the FBI's Jacksonville Field Office, said in a news briefing Sunday that investigators are working with "the presumption that this was an act of terrorism."
Doing so, she said, "allows us to take advantage of investigative techniques that can help us more quickly identify and then eliminate any additional threats to the rest of our community."
There is currently no evidence of such a threat, she added.

2018 Public Benefit Report
Progress takes work
We did not set out to start a company – we were brought together during an urgent and chaotic time to help fix HealthCare.gov. But while we were brought in as a temporary team, the issues we saw were anything but temporary. The structural and systemic challenges we saw reflected deep cracks in our civic life. Fault lines spanning generations, broken and brittle relationships between people and the government that's meant to serve them. At the same time, we found partners and dedicated civil servants showing up, day after day, for the people. We decided, together, to find ways we could help.
We started Nava with a mission: to improve the accessibility, effectiveness, and simplicity of government services. We formed as a public benefit corporation because we believe that all corporations have a deep social responsibility to the people affected by their work, and to the broader public. For organizations working to improve public programs that affect millions of lives, this should be the norm, not the exception.
How far we've gone
We've learned a lot of hard lessons in the last four years. We've thrown ourselves at the center of projects that have felt impossible at times and have learned the hard way that burnout is not a badge of honor. But we've also grown significantly, both as individuals and as an organization. Four years in, a team of six is now seventy, headquartered in DC with offices in San Francisco and New York, and a growing cohort of distributed employees across the country. Nava now represents over 44% women and over 46% underrepresented backgrounds in tech, with leadership represented by majority women and 45% people of color. As a public benefit corporation, our fiduciary duty is not only to our shareholders – current and former Nava employees – but to our mission and the positive impact we hope to achieve.
In our first public benefit report, we're proud to share how we worked with and learned from our government partners to help tens of millions of people better access critical services. We scaled infrastructure for programs that process hundreds of billions of dollars each year and improved the simplicity of back-office processes to shave off decades of labor. As a whole, the programs we've worked to support, from Medicare to Veterans Affairs to HealthCare.gov to Medicaid, provide benefits to over a quarter of the population of the United States. But there's still so much more work to be done.
And while we're four years in, we're just getting started. We imagine a world where public services are trusted, efficient, and easy to use, and policy is driven by user needs. We imagine a world where companies that build and support systems for governments are held accountable, and where technology is applied for problems that suit it, in ways that open doors, not build barriers. And while these are lofty goals, they're neither easy nor inevitable.
Progress is not free, which means progress costs something. Progress costs time, effort, attention, patience. Progress takes work, work we're grateful to be a part of, work that involves civil servants, caseworkers, policymakers, work that will take years and decades to realize, work we hope you'll take part in too.

Better foundations, not better facades
The structural and systemic challenges we face in our daily work reflect deep cracks in our civic life. Fault lines spanning generations, broken and brittle relationships between people and the government that's meant to serve them. Yet, day after day, dedicated civil servants show up to do what they can to make things better for the American people. They've taught us that to truly spark change, we must always resist the quick fix in favor of pursuing the underlying cause. We must build better foundations, not better facades.
An equitable, human-centered safety net fit for the digital age
Our social safety net is a constellation of services and programs, but it's often an obstacle course where, the more help you need, the harder it gets. In a nationwide initiative to build an equitable, human-centered safety net fit for the digital age, Nava partnered with Code for America and the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. Our mission: to radically improve government services for people who find themselves living at or below the poverty line.
After visiting ten states to understand the experiences of people who rely on and manage the social safety net every day, the initiative launched five small-scale pilot sites around the country. Nava partnered with the State of Vermont to make it easier for people to access state-administered benefits like free or low-cost health care and assistance paying for food, fuel, and daily expenses. Recognizing that accessing public assistance programs can be difficult for the people who need them and for the people who manage them, we're focusing our work with Vermont on improving experiences for both beneficiaries and State staff.
During our initial research, we learned that Vermonters faced another hurdle after completing the complicated application process: documents to prove their eligibility. The State of Vermont wanted to address the burden of document submission and minimize the expense of time and money people incurred at this step.
In a few short months, Nava worked with the State of Vermont to launch two test programs that have made measurable improvements. Before, people had to mail or deliver documents in-person during business hours, spending money on postage or transportation to do so. Now, they can submit documents on their own time, from wherever they are, using the device they have, whether it's mobile, tablet, or desktop. As a result, 30 percent of people submitted outside of business hours and 50 percent used a mobile device to submit.
In total, our test programs reduced the amount of time from application submission to benefits processing by 40 percent. Before, the majority of applicants waited days for their documents to arrive through the mail and longer for them to be processed; only 11 percent were able to submit within one day. During the test programs, 55 percent of applicants were able to submit their documents in one day.
An example of a page on the website where Vermonters can upload and submit documents needed for eligibility.
Our data is backed up by positive feedback from users. As one certified assister—someone who helps people understand, apply, and enroll in public assistance services—shared:
"For one of my clients who was dis-enrolled from Medicaid, I scanned and uploaded his income verification [using the new documentation uploader]. Within three hours, I was able to call him and tell him his Medicaid was active. It was amazing."
In the first months of the test programs, hundreds of people were able to quickly submit verification documents. And, the State of Vermont is on track to provide this service to every Vermonter applying for any human services program by the end of 2019. In the meantime, we worked with the State to expand use cases that the uploader could support, including helping people with urgent medical needs submit documents to get health care coverage within hours.
This improvement has proven critical. Hospital staff shared one anecdote about a deaf father of four who urgently needed cancer screening but was unable to schedule the expensive tests until he had coverage. "In his case, [using the uploader] was huge. Everybody was standing with bated breath waiting for his Medicaid to be active so we could get him scheduled," said a hospital staffer.
Getting what you need from government should always be this easy.
We're grateful to our partners in the State of Vermont for fully embracing a human-centered approach and supporting the eventual open sourcing of this work so it can be adopted and implemented in other states.
Using product management to ship the largest change to Medicare
Government agencies deliver urgent and high impact services. Ensuring that these services are human-centered and built on time and on budget is no small feat. When we got the chance to partner with The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to improve the accessibility, effectiveness, and simplicity of Medicare's Quality Payment Program, we understood the incredible potential for positive change. We also understood what it would take to get the job done: a strong product management practice.
As the largest modern update to Medicare, the Quality Payment Program (QPP) is designed to push the $705 billion Medicare ecosystem forward. QPP is changing how Medicare providers are paid, rewarding doctors for the quality and value of care rather than volume of services. Aligning doctors' financial incentives with the best outcomes for patients ensures that 34 million Medicare Part B beneficiaries get the highest quality health care.
We joined more than 300 people, including civil servants from CMS, the United States Digital Service, and a cohort of contractors to build the technical architecture that would allow the federal government to gather and evaluate performance data about health care quality and adjust Medicare payments accordingly.
To unify this large team, we aligned on this product vision: Medicare's Quality Payment Program delivers real-time, actionable feedback to doctors so that they can deliver high quality, cost-effective care to patients.
In government projects, the product vision directly links policy requirements with user needs. It also provides a common goal to prioritize everyone's efforts against. In this case, the product vision enabled us to build the first open application programming interface (API) in the history of similar programs at CMS. Our API is now used by providers, registries, and electronic health record companies who submit the performance data of over half a million clinicians. It's processed more than 44,000 submissions in one day and has been up and running 99.99% of the time.
But when we began, our research showed that future users of the API were nervous. Previous attempts at similar programs had opaque results. It was incumbent on us to prove that change is possible.
Change like this, that spans teams and initiatives, requires civil servants and contractors alike to use product thinking. Product thinking helps to draw connections between silos and map out the pieces, players, and channels needed to create a human-centered service. In this case, that meant we had to do more than just release the API.
QPP user shares how easy it was to submit performance data to the API.
To ensure it would be adopted, we built an interactive tutorial to guide providers, registries, and electronic health record companies through the process of submitting performance data to the API. We also created Google Groups so people could support and learn from each other. These pieces were released in a beta so clinicians, administrators, and developers could test it all out with little risk. Thanks to the product road map, we had the time and resources to safely implement all the tools and networks required for QPP's success.
The product management practices used throughout this project are now being replicated across CMS to help other teams efficiently deliver human-centered policies and services. And, the provision of open tools and networks means that Medicare can continue to innovate and drive improvements for years to come.
Be active stewards
The work we do affects the lives of millions of people. The stakes are extremely high, so the standards we hold ourselves to must be even higher. In order to meet them, we listen closely to the communities we serve and strive to develop a nuanced and insightful understanding of their experiences and needs. Being stewards of these stories is a privilege. It means we can build tools that will be lasting, accessible, and truly helpful to the people who need them. We then document what we do and learn from the work of others so that we can all hold safe what's entrusted to us.
Plain language templates for researchers working with and for government
Nava designer Sneha Pai and product manager Lauren Peterson.
Nava's researchers often interview people who are trying to access government services because they're in a challenging moment in their lives. Telling a stranger that you can't afford groceries or are in debt after medical procedures is difficult. It's our job to create a safe space for these stories to be shared.
As researchers, we must be caretakers of these stories and the people who share them by explaining our process and how we protect their privacy in plain language. When people can easily understand exactly how we use what they share to make government services simple, effective, and accessible for people like them, they're better able to decide if they want to take part in our research.
Earlier this year, we worked with Harvard's Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy to make plain language templates to help researchers everywhere easily honor the participant's right to privacy. These templates are informed by our work across our portfolio. We first created them to make it easy for Nava researchers to quickly deploy these practices on our projects, and we're sharing them here in hopes they'll help others do the same.
Find all of our templates here, including ones for:
A consent form
An email for requesting consent
A script for talking about informed consent with participants
A spreadsheet for organizing research participants
Interview note taking
If you have feedback about the templates or would like to share how you're using them, we'd love to hear from you. Let us know what you think by sending a note to design@navapbc.com.
Building for the long term
There is a growing generation of government legacy systems, often the first digital systems of their kind, that need to be replaced. Rebuilding and remaking a system that is deeply intertwined with a program's mission can be delicate, risky work. In close collaboration with our partners, we take a profoundly long-term perspective in order to deliver the right thing for right now and for years to come.
Building scalable and secure identity management for HealthCare.gov and MyMedicare.gov
Identity management makes it possible for millions of people to access critical government services. But if identity systems are built on brittle technology or if it's confusing to log in, remember passwords, verify your identity, or create new accounts, people can be locked out of programs entirely.
One example: when HealthCare.gov launched in 2013, the login system had serious performance issues and suffered frequent outages, preventing millions of Americans from easily enrolling in health care coverage.
Nava worked with The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to build the Scalable Login System (SLS) to address the scaling issues with HealthCare.gov's original enterprise software. SLS makes identity management safe and simple for users and easy to maintain for government agencies. It's also exponentially more cost-effective: SLS was built with open source software, was more than 90 percent cheaper to build, and is 90 percent cheaper to maintain annually than the legacy, proprietary system.
SLS is currently used on HealthCare.gov to handle authentication, store sensitive user information, and manage identities for more than 20 million accounts. And it can support much more: SLS has been load tested to support a billion users—50 times what it currently handles.
More recently, we expanded SLS to MyMedicare.gov, where more than 34 million account holders view benefits and manage claims. Instead of building an entirely new system from scratch, we worked with our government partners to reuse technology we'd already tried and tested at scale on Healthcare.gov. But that doesn't mean we cut any corners. In migrating MyMedicare.gov to the new login system, we went the extra mile, ensuring data wasn't lost and minimizing downtime to one hour to ensure a smooth and seamless transition.
With SLS running on both HealthCare.gov and MyMedicare.gov, we've made improvements and added features that benefited both sites in one fell swoop. We added new API functionality with support for modern protocols so SLS can be extended and used for years to come. Looking ahead, we're taking what we've learned while building SLS to the state level, leveraging our experience to help agencies of all sizes safely and securely reduce costs and technical maintenance.
A modern design system for HealthCare.gov
Government programs that serve millions of people must be consistent, simple, and accessible for all. But many services are built by multiple contractors, each with their own processes and codebases, resulting in disjointed and inconsistent experiences. Design systems can help bridge the divide, encourage collaboration, and empower each team to efficiently build consistent experiences.
HealthCare.gov is no exception. Since 2015, more than 59 million health insurance applications and re-enrollments have been processed through the site. But it's not always been an easy experience. Guided by a set of design principles, we designed and built services that efficiently shepherd people towards the right health care coverage that meets their needs.
Along the way, we worked with our government partners to create a design system for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). It's a set of open source design and front-end development resources for creating Section 508 compliant, responsive, and accessible websites. By providing a set of common components and proven patterns, the design system enables teams to quickly create prototypes and get feedback from real users. Bug fixes and improvements can be tackled globally. And, adopting projects can immediately benefit by updating their design system package.
The design system was incrementally applied to HealthCare.gov without the introduction of unintended side-effects thanks to our technical approach. We chose to use Sass and React because much of the existing HealthCare.gov front-end, as well as new work underway, use them. Our architecture and naming conventions favor clarity, scalability, and resilience over brevity. For example, we namespace CSS class names to avoid conflicts with other libraries and existing code. As a result, the design system's stylesheets can be added to the codebase without changing the existing styles. And, the inclusion of utility classes supports rapid prototyping of new patterns, while still utilizing the design system's design language.
An example of a help content design pattern that guides people through what can oftentimes be a deeply personal process, one that will determine how they care for themselves and their family
While we are no longer working on the HealthCare.gov project, the design system has had a ripple effect across government. In 2018, CMS began requiring the use of the CMS Design System for all new development projects. Other agencies have adopted it as well. Aspects of our technical and design approaches were incorporated in Version 2 of the U.S. Web Design System, influencing how many government sites are designed and built. We're excited to see how both of these design systems will continue to benefit each other. In the meantime, the CMS Design System is freely available for anyone to use.
At the end of every weekly all staff meeting, it's Nava tradition to show appreciation by "shouting out" particularly special things Navanauts did that week. It's a privilege to close our week with gratitude for the work and each other.
It's with great appreciation that we shoutout the communities that support us, teach us, and cheer us on. Thank you Nava staff, alums, partners, advisors, friends, and last but not least, the Navatots who were born this past year for making the work in this report possible. For the complete list of Navafriends, see the shoutout roll call at the end of the report 🎉
Special shoutout to Vidhya Nagarajan for the illustrations in this report.

Evidently Dixie has been cooped up in the garage carving gravestones for much too long. She eats, breathes, and NOW wears gravestones!
She wanted me to tell everyone about Gravestone Artwear. Looks like these guys take rubbings of actual New England gravestones and silkscreen them onto all kinds of things. Looks like a pretty cool site.
Now, excuse me while I try to explain to my wife why a 4ft long foam gravestone is not meant to be worn like a hat. The neighbors look at us funny as it is, we don't need to give them any more ammunition.


Melinda will be doing a Christmas show at the Franklin Theatre in Franklin, TN on December 14, 2017.
Reply to this post if you plan on coming with the dates you will be in Franklin and I'll include you on my list to stay at the Inn. I probably make reservations sometime in August for 4 nights (Dec 13 - Dec 16).
Health permitting, and it's been good so far in 2017, I'll go. I want to see everybody.
I'd love to try and go! Can't 100% commit just yet, but keep me posted!
Desiree, do we need to let you know now if we're going?
I'll send an email out this weekend asking who is going so we can reserve the Franklin Battlefield Inn. They charge by the number of people who stay and will ask for a down payment.
Gem is wanting to go too and I'm sending her this link for the topic so she can reply as well.
I want to go. Put me down.
If you sent an email this weekend, I didn't get one...I don't know the concert date either, so if you have that info I can see if my friend can get the time to join us. Thanks Des.
No, I wasn't feeling well so the email didn't get sent before I went on vacation.
I'm sure tickets will be available on http://www.franklintheatre.com/ soon but currently the calendar only lists dates through mid-November.


The creative company of the well-known Opera browser has launched a new version of its web browser for desktop computers with a very useful tool, id est., a cryptocurrency wallet. This was announced by the company through a press release on Tuesday, April 9th.
Reborn 3, or Opera 60 as its trade name indicates, is a browser that the company has decided to launch with the newest features. The users of this browser will be able to browse the web through platform 3.0 (an Internet platform based on blockchain technology), as well as the user will be able to conduct transactions with cryptocurrencies. In addition, the browser offers a built-in VPN that allows better security and privacy for users.
According to the publication, the wallet automatically synchronizes with the cryptocurrency wallet already offered by the company for the Android operating system, which allows to store cryptocurrencies and tokens. In this way, the access keys to the wallet are stored in the same user.
In another sense, the new browser with support in the Web 3.0 browser gives full access to all the decentralized applications of the entire network of the Ethereum platform.
Now, when a user needs to make a transaction with cryptocurrencies directly from this platform, a notification will arrive to the phone. In order to complete the task, users should only be identified by a facial recognition or by applying the fingerprint, as if it were to unlock their cell phone. This is part of the security measures that this new browser offers to complete a transaction.
When referring to the note, about the VPN service that has been incorporated, it is mentioned that this tool was included as a way to protect the location of the user who made the transaction. This also includes a protection service when the user navigates through public networks.
"Opera's built-in VPN, ad blocking and its cryptocurrency wallet make it the only modern browser that allows users to have complete control of their digital life, while providing them with a vision of the future of the web", says part of the statement.
Previously, in July last year, the company had already launched an Opera browser that worked exclusively for the Android operating system, as a method of making the idea of a mobile wallet work. Later, it launched the same application, but a desktop version that resulted to be compatible with Windows, Linux and Mac. This allows users to install it without having to add extensions inside the computer.
And, for the near future, the company has partnered with big corporations interested in new technologies, such as Ledger Capital, in order to conduct researches about different blockchain solutions and incorporate them into their next projects and products.


The next phase of the All Ways Forward comprehensive campaign is under way and looks to touch all four corners (or, more accurately, all 72 counties) of the state. Join your colleagues at the next WFAA Lunch and Learn for a discussion on this innovative, statewide outreach effort and the marketing initiatives behind it to engage with alumni and advocate for the UW.
On April 13, UW System alumni and UW-Madison students joined forces to speak with legislators on behalf of the UW System. Learn more.


Opportunity to pursue your passion and prosper. Freedom to live the lifestyle you want. Success on your own terms. The foundation to having all of those things is integrity: aligning your outside with the purpose and passion that lives on the inside of you.
In order to live from a place of integrity, you have to be willing to take risks. I'm not referring to undisciplined, screw the world types of risks, but being willing to step out of your comfort zone fully expecting that everything you need will show up.
I spent years trying to live someone else's dream. It looked like success on the outside, but inside there was always a constant battle between what I was supposed to want and what I really wanted. I was supposed to want to climb the corporate ladder. But what I really wanted was to be home for my daughter and do work I loved – even if it meant a huge pay cut. This is one of the reasons I picked up and moved to Minnesota: I intentionally downsized my life and prepared to live on less so I could enjoy my daughter and my life more. Since I was working as a remote employee, earning six-figures, it was the perfect opportunity to relocate to a place of my choice without having to look for a new job.
Yes, it was true that I didn't know a single person in Minnesota. But I was resourceful: before I moved here I found a group of single mothers through MeetUp.com. I asked them about neighborhoods and schools. By the time I got here, I had already connected with a few of them and four years later they are some of my closest friends. I did the research on schools and found out that they tested in 2 and 5th grade for placement in their gifted program. I planned my move a month before the testing so my daughter would be eligible. She took the test and went to magnet school for gifted kids in 3rd grade – she starts middle school this year and is slated to take honors English, writing, and history. When I compare her opportunities now to the Philadelphia schools that are cutting out music, art, and athletics, I am so glad I made the move to Minnesota.
Was it bold and ballsy to pick up my life and move halfway across the country? Absolutely. I could have stayed in Philadelphia to please everyone and ease their discomfort about me taking such a big leap, but I needed to be true to what my life was calling me to do. The risk was worth the reward: since making my professional and personal life have grown tremendously.
Are you playing it safe by avoiding all risks or are you taking the leaps of faith that position you for more purpose, passion and prosperity?

D'Tigers maintains perfect record at FIBA World Cup African Qualifiers
Arowobusoye SamuelFebruary 26, 2018 11:41 am 0
Nigeria's men senior basketball team, D'Tigers, capped an impressive run at the just-concluded round of qualifiers for the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) World Cup finishing undefeated.
The qualifiers, held in Bamako, Mali, saw the D'Tigers joining basketball powerhouses, Tunisia and Angola to maintain 100 per cent record so far.
In their last group game during the first-leg matches, Nigeria defeated hosts, Mali, 82-59 in Group B of the African Qualifiers in front of a home crowd, making them one of only three teams yet to lose a game in the race for the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 in China.
The D'Tigers had previously cruised to victory against Uganda and Rwanda by an average of 33-point wins margin in the three-day contest.
Team captain Ike Diogu and Michael Efevberha, were in inspiring form as Nigeria closed Group B's first-leg with three wins in as many games while Uganda, Mali and Rwanda finished with a 1-2 record each.
Meanwhile in Group D played in the Mozambican capital of Maputo, Senegal beat the hosts 60-52 while the Central African Republic denied Cote d'Ivoire 63-62 in overtime.
Senegal and Mozambique share the lead of the group, a 2-1 record each, while CAR and Cote d'Ivoire closed the group's first-leg with a 1-2 record apiece.
According to information contained on FIBA Africa website, the third window of the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 African Qualifiers returns in late June and early July for the second-leg of Groups A-D.
Five FIBA World Cup tickets are at stake for the continent's countries to reach the first-ever 32-team FIBA Basketball World Cup taking place in China from August 30 to September 15, 2019.
"The African Qualifiers consist of 12 tournaments played across six windows. The First Round sees four groups of four teams each face one another over the course of two legs.
"The top three teams from each group advance to the Second Round, where the 12 qualified teams are divided in two groups (E and F) of six teams each.
"The top two teams from groups E and F and the best third-ranked team will secure their tickets for the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019," the FIBA Africa website stated. (NAN)

The general inferiority of the mixed stock has passed into a proverb even in Africa, where it is said: "A god created the whites; I know not who created the blacks; certainly a devil created the mongrels." So reports Livingstone (quoted by Lombroso), and adds that he had seen but one Portuguese Mestizo of robust health. In Brazil it is held that the mingling of Indian with Latin blood has not produced evil results, but everywhere else such remote crossings have been more or less disastrous. Strikingly is this the case with the Zambos-the mixture of Indian and Negro; they are mainly degenerates and degraded. Thus E. G. Squier, writing of Honduras in the Encyclop�dia Britannica, Vol. XII., says: "A small part of the coast, above Cape Gracias, is occupied by the Sambos, a mixed race of Indians and Negroes, which, however, is fast disappearing." In Mexico, Central and South America, the half-breeds are everywhere stationary or declining. In India the Eurasians (20,000 in Calcutta) "touch a level of degradation which is far lower than any reached by the pure heathen about them. They inherit defects more conspicuously than virtues from both races from which they spring" (Pop. Sci. Mon., Nov., 1892). In Japan the inferior Ainos are passing away before the superior Japanese. The hybrids are never healthy or vigorous, and vanish with the third or fourth generation. Here, in the United States, the testimony is all against the Mulatto. In a report of the Provost-Marshal General, the opinions of physicians stand eleven to one against the Mulatto as "scrofulous and consumptive," "degenerated physically," and the one favourable judgement reposes on only two instances. The anthropometry of the Mulatto is decidedly against him. His average lung capacity, the most significant of measurements, was found by Gould to be only 158.9 cubic inches against 163.5 for the pure Black, and 184.7 for the White. His respiration rate was equally unfavourable, being 19 per minute against 17.7 for the pure Black, and 16.4 for the White. We refer, also, to the testimony of Dr. Shaler (p. 52), that he had never known a Mulatto to pass threescore. The writer remembers the first use he ever heard of the word "cachectic;" his father spoke of it as a term generally applicable to Mulattoes.
From the convergence of all such testimony, which may be multiplied indefinitely, there seems no escape whatever. We must concede, with Lombroso: "It is impossible to contemplate these facts without admitting that marriages between some human races are much less fertile and happy than between others;" and especially unfortunate are those between such extremes as Whites and Negroes. When such anthropologists as Waitz, Serres, Deschamps, Bodichon, anticipate a millennium from universal miscegenation, it is only sentimentalism or else forgetfulness of the distinction drawn so properly by Topinard (�l�ments d'Anthropologie g�n�rale, 1885) between the intermingling of nearly related and of distantly related races. In the first case the result is, in general, certainly good; in the latter, it is quite as certainly bad.
But let us now, merely for the moment and for the sake of argument, admit that both our premises are in doubt; that, perhaps, after all the Negro is not inferior organically-mentally, morally, or physically-to the Caucasian, and that interfertility might, perhaps, work no deterioration; would the case be essentially altered? Assuredly not. For even then the most extreme negrophilist must still admit that there is, at least, a reasonable doubt; even if the Negro be not proved inferior, yet he is certainly not proved equal, and there is a large body of at least apparent evidence against him; even if it be not certain that miscegenation would work deterioration, it is at least very possible and seemingly probable. Who, then, would have the foolhardihood to make this experiment of race amalgamation-an experiment which, once made, is made forever; whose consequences could never be undone-when there is at least and at the very lowest an undeniable possibility, not to say certainty, that those consequences would be disastrous in the extreme? Can we imagine a more wanton folly? Would such an experiment beseem any other place so well as the madhouse?

A Race about Race: Race, Inter-Race and Post-Race in the Study of Human Genetics »
A Mixed Race: Ethnicity in Early America, edited by Frank Shuffelton (Oxford University Press, 1993) [Review]
African American Review
Volume 29, Number 1 (Spring 1995)
Raymond F. Dolle, Associate Professor of English
A Mixed Race extends the recent work of ethnographic critics, such as James Clifford (The Predicament of Culture: Twentieth-Century Ethnography, Literature, and Art [1988]), and such literary critics as Werner Sollors (Beyond Ethnicity: Consent and Descent in American Culture [1986]) and William Boelhower (Through a Glass Darkly: Ethnic Semiosis in American Literature [1987]). These critics have argued that ethnicity is not located solely in an essential cultural identity, continuity, or tradition, and that texts should not be understood as mimetic descriptions of an essential, unchanging ethnic difference (even though that is often the pretense of these texts). Rather, the center of ethnicity should be seen as a dynamic relation between cultural groups, and their texts as orchestrations of multivocal exchanges among these groups as they transform themselves (the hegemonic group included) in the process of confronting others. Thus, ethnicity is performance, a group's continually changing self-understanding in relation to a changing larger world, a struggle for control over narratives, values, and the self. Furthermore, this process of ethnicity is carried on by means of signs and codes that are generated by the groups to negotiate relationships with other hostile or accommodating groups. So, to understand more fully the ethnic foundation of our culture, we must recognize ethnic semiosis in colonial texts. Such clarifying views have enabled the scholars in this volume to consider the circumstances, rhetorical negotiations, and representation of ethnic formation in early America…

Arbitration agreements in employment often require employees to agree to waive their ability to bring class action or collective litigation. In its place, the employee agrees to participate in arbitration proceedings involving just the employee's dispute. The enforceability of these types of waiver clauses in employment agreements has been litigated across the country for years, and there was a split in the federal circuit courts on whether such agreements violated the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). A U.S. Supreme Court decision has now answered that question.
Arbitration is a process that takes place outside of the courts and involves the hearing of a dispute by a person or persons agreed to by the parties. It is usually voluntary, agreed to by contract and involves a single dispute. In court litigation, on the other hand, parties may choose to bring class action lawsuits that include a large group of individuals claiming to have suffered a similar harm.
In employment cases, employees largely bring class action litigation over wage and hour disputes, including overtime, waiting time penalties and other matters. Group litigation may also involve claims of sexual discrimination or litigation over misclassification of workers as independent contractors rather than employees.
Arbitration agreements may include terms that require employees to give up this ability to bring a group or collective lawsuit when facing one of these types of dispute and instead going into private arbitration to settle just the one employee's dispute.
On May 21, the Supreme Court held that employers may enforce arbitration agreements signed by employees that bar them from bringing class-action lawsuits and require individualized arbitration.
It found that the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) instructs courts to enforce the terms of arbitration agreements, including terms requiring one-on-one arbitration proceedings. It also found that the NLRA says nothing about how legal disputes must be resolved.
"Far from conflicting, the Arbitration Act and the NLRA have long enjoyed separate spheres of influence and neither permits this court to declare the parties' agreements unlawful," wrote Justice Neil Gorsuch for the majority. Employers and employees alike have been awaiting this decision, which was a 5-4 ruling.
In considering these employer-employee agreements, the court found that Congress had long ago instructed the courts to enforce arbitration agreements according to their terms. This focus came out of wanting to bring an end to hostility to arbitration and a policy under federal law to favor such agreements. The congressional direction included a deference for terms the parties had chosen to include in the contract.
The court also addressed the question of whether the protections under the NLRA trumped the FAA when it came to agreements with employees.
It explained that the NLRA is a federal law designed to provide private employees with certain rights and encourages collective action by workers within the workplace. Reviewing the law, it found the NLRA only involves employees' rights to "concerted activity" on matters in the workplace and does not delve into the arena of employees' rights in resolving disputes in a collective way.
The majority noted that the NLRA "does not hint at displacing the FAA, which strongly favors arbitration." It also explained that it had never read a right to class actions into that law and neither had the National Labor Relations Board, the federal agency with responsibilities to enforce the NLRA.
While larger companies are generally more likely to require these agreements as part of employment, this recent decision may result in more employers exploring them as an option. Companies taking this review should consider obtaining legal advice as to drafting such provisions and carefully take into account the differences with resolving disputes through this alternative dispute arbitration process.

We have come a long way from the traditional lead generation process of cold calling and cold emails because it was like finding a needle in the haystack. The lead generation techniques have undergone substantive changes in the recent years since the rise of the Internet. Cold Calling at one point in time was the best process of generating prospective clients. With the recent Digital Development, cold calling has had a dwindling effect. A variety of effective alternatives have taken its place.
The new method like the traditional method is also founded on the fundamental idea of building a trusting relationship and demonstrating expertise but these goals are achieved online. Let's walk through the different methods of generating leads that are being followed currently by the professionals.
Customer relationship management (CRM) can be defined as an approach or a technology for managing a company's interaction and relationship with potential and existing customers with the main aim of improving business relationships, customer retention and nurturing sales growth. CRM systems are designed to gather information on customers via different channels of online marketing, it consolidates the information and documents into a single CRM database which can be easily accessed and managed. A CRM software has some common features like Marketing Automation, Sales Force Automation, Contact Centre Automation and Geolocation technology, It's been used by sales and marketing department for a long time now to produce effective results. Some of the main vendors of the CRM system are Sales Force, Microsoft, SAP, Oracle & Zoho.
With cloud-based CRM businesses are freed from the hassle of installing bulky and expensive software in every single employee's desktops computers and mobile devices. Today, data, software, and services are packed in a secure cloud environment making is easily available for the users working on same information to extract data at any time. It is cost-effective, easy to use and has flexible potential.
Online Registration is one of the most operative means of capturing ideal prospects. These leads are collected during the registration process on the website which increases the opportunity for conversion rate, it about finding the right customer at the right time.

Traditional Advertising (Radio, Print & TV) legacy media or traditional media like advertising through TV, radio, print ads were the old methods to produce leads at a desired cost which is still relevant.

The techniques, methods, and process of online lead generation be it b2b or b2c is vast and the internet has only made it easy and accessible. Online directories, retargeted ads, free online trails are some more means of gathering qualified leads.
Even with internet reigning the marketing world today, the traditional methods of the lead generation still play a significant role in gathering leads.

How Young Dolph's partner Mia Jaye is turning 'pain into purpose' after his murder
Jaye spoke with ABC News Live's Linsey Davis in an exclusive interview.

Exclusive: Young Dolph's partner says dealing with his death is 'extremely difficult'

After the tragic killing of rapper Young Dolph, his longtime partner, Mia Jaye, was left to pick up the pieces.
Jaye, who shares two children with Dolph, spoke out about the pain that her family is going through one day after police announced the capture of two suspects connected to his murder.
"It's been extremely difficult just having to pick up the pieces and to find the strength for my children," Jaye told ABC News Live's Linsey Davis in an exclusive interview on Wednesday. "Now that he's no longer here, it's just very tough for me to be strong for them and be strong for myself because he -- you know, Adolph was my soulmate."
Young Dolph and Mia Jaye are pictured with their children, Tre and Ari.
Young Dolph, whose given name was Adolph Robert Thornton Jr., was shot and killed in Memphis, Tennessee, on Nov. 17 while visiting Makeda's Homemade Butter Cookies, a bakery the rapper was known to frequent. He was 36.
Two men were arrested and indicted on first-degree murder charges in connection with the killing of Dolph, the U.S. Marshals Service announced on Tuesday evening. A third suspect was charged on Wednesday with being an accessory to the murder.

Jaye and Dolph, who had been together for nearly a decade, share a son and a daughter -- 7-year-old Tre and 4-year-old Ari -- and had been planning their wedding when the rapper was killed, she said.
"They stole my future," Jaye said, adding that over the past few years, the Memphis rapper had "made the sacrifices" he needed to make as a celebrity who travels a lot to be "present" with his family and they were looking forward to celebrating their "love story" with their children.

Dolph's tragic death was not the first time that Jaye's life had been shaken by gun violence.
Her brother, Jeremey Jerdine, was shot and killed in May 2020 while he was working as a car salesman. A month later, a Memphis man was arrested and charged with first-degree murder for the fatal shooting.
At the time, Jaye launched the "Black Men Deserve to Grow Old" campaign through her lifestyle brand, Mom•E•O, to tackle the issue of violent crime in the Black community and support families who have lost husbands and fathers to violent crime.
Jaye said that she didn't realize that by launching the campaign to support her brother's family and other families impacted by violent crime, she would be preparing for her own journey.

In her first messages after the rapper was killed, Jaye shared a video on her Instagram account of Dolph helping his daughter Ari with a late-night workout along with the words, "Question is... How am I ever going to tell my babies that daddy is never coming home?"
Since the killing of Dolph, the campaign has received national attention and become a rallying cry to bring attention to the generational trauma that is caused by gun violence in Black communities.

Jaye said that she has received an "outpouring of support" from the public, Dolph's fans and celebrities, which has kept her "uplifted" as she deals with the pain.
"I'm turning this pain into purpose right now," she said. "And so I'm very thankful for the community starting the conversation of what can we do to lengthen the lives of Black men in America?"
Dolph's murder is the latest in a string of killings of prominent rappers over the past few years.
Compton rapper Slim 400 was shot and killed on Dec. 9 hours after he shared a tribute to Dolph, whom he had collaborated with in the past.
Over the past few years, Nipsey Hussle, Pop Smoke, King Von, Mo3 and most recently, Drakeo The Ruler, were killed through violent crime.
Asked what can be done to stop the cycle of violence, Jaye pointed to investing in mental health in the Black community and "restoring the Black family."
"Mental health in the Black community is something that we must address," she said. "So many people are walking around traumatized, they have bottled up anger, they have bottled up emotion ... they make rash decisions. So finding ways to really, really heal people mentally, I think that's a start."
Mia Jaye started the "Black Men Deserve To Grow Old Campaign" to bring attention to the issue of gun violence in the Black community.
Through her brand, Mom•E•O -- which means "mom and CEO" -- Jaye works to empower Black women and their role as mothers in their families.
Dolph was honored at a public memorial at the FedEx Forum in Memphis last month, where fans and community members gathered to pay tribute to the slain rapper one month after his death.

Jaye and her children shared emotional tributes and remembered him as a devoted father.
At the memorial, Jaye reflected on Dolph's "selflessness" and his devotion to his children and said that she fell in love with him for his "heart of gold" and his "benevolent spirit."

Young Dolph's long time partner Mia Jaye and their children Tre Tre and Ari speak to the crowd gathered during a celebration of life tribute for late rapper at FedExForum on Dec. 16, 2021 in Memphis, Tenn.
Ari remembered how much she loved playing with her father and said he is "still in my heart," and she will "keep thinking of him for forever and ever."
And Tre spoke at the memorial and said his dad raised him and "trained me to be a good man when I grow up."

"Since he had [died], I'm gonna make it up to the whole world," Tre said, "and I'm gonna be the greatest person you'll ever know."
Jaye told ABC News that she would be "honored" if her son turns out to be just like his father.
"He was a very charismatic, compassionate, kind-hearted soul," she said. "He was gentle. He was a great, awesome father."

For the first 60 years of Louisiana's colonial past, from 1715, the vast majority of African slaves were imported from Mali via Senegal's coast. About two thirds were Bambara and like their African neighbors, the Mandigo or Malinka, spoke a Mande dialect or language. By their overwhelming numbers, these Bambara, along with some of the Mandingo and Wolof, became the main foundation, for many successive generations, of Louisiana's African identity, bringing their skills, customs, traditions, food, music and folklore. From 1719 until the slave revolt against the Compagnie des Indes in Senegal about 1730, over 3,000 Senegambians were brought to Louisiana. Until Spanish colonial times, only a few hundred slaves from other places were imported to Louisiana, making the three generations of Bambara the core of Louisiana's African experience.
Professor Alcée Fortier, who lived in Vacherie and in New Orleans in the 1870s, collected and transcribed what we know today as the Tales of Brer Rabbit, (Compair Lapin, Piti Bonhomme Godron or Tar Baby and Compair Bouki, published in 1888 and 1894) In 1880 Joel Chandler Harris, born in Eatonton, Georgia and living in Savannah and then Atlanta, published his original Brer Rabbit tales, thirty four plantation tales or fables, all stories he collected from former slaves living in Georgia and the Carolinas, mostly from his grandparents' Turnwold Plantation in Georgia between 1862 and 1866. Importantly, all Harris' stories originate in West Africa, but from slaves imported from the 1770s and later, brought in by the English slave trade. Both Harris and Fortier, contemporaries, were collecting stories at the same time, from two geographically distant regions, but which both originated in Senegal.
Fortier's sources are from French-speaking African-Creole former slaves who are descended from those first Bambara arriving in Louisiana between 1719 and 1749, during the French Colonial period. Harris' source is from slaves brought to the English East Coast in the 1770-80s who would pass the stories in their Gullah or Geechee idiom and then into English.
In the 1880s, Fortier was president of the American Folklore Society and would have been familiar with Harris and his work and vice-versa. We do not know how closely they communicated about their story collections. When Fortier gave his "Tar Baby" presentation for the Folklore Society in 1884, that the close link between the Gullah version by Harris and Fortier's Creole version were evidence that this particular folk heritage related to the animist spiritual beliefs of the Bambara had its roots not in America but, for many previous centuries, in Senegal.
What is most amazing is the incredible strength of the West African oral tradition that today allows us to see the Senegambian connection. In 1980, Steve and Kathleen Duplantier and I formed the Louisiana Folkloric Puppet Theatre to teach students about our varied ethnic heritage in Louisiana. Under a grant from LEH, we researched different folktales, including some 30 Creole tales, all footnoted by Fortier and credited to a slave in Vacherie. Whether this refers to a single enslaved person (griot) or many, we do not know. We believe that Fortier visited many of the neighboring plantations in Vacherie as well as collecting stories in New Orleans.
One of the stories that we decided to use in our performances was Fortier's "The Elephant & the Whale." Many years later, in 1996, we were given a copy of Senegal President Senghor's "Leuk le Lievre," the recent president of Senegal's primer for Senegalese Wolof-speaking students learning French that he published in 1953. To our astonishment upon reading Senghor's version, it was almost "word-for-word" right out of Fortier's book. Remember, the slaves from Senegal came here in the 1720s, some 225 years prior to Senghor's book. Still, the two versions are basically unchanged and identical. Fortier collects this same tale in the 1870s, unchanged and identical. How vitally important were these stories to the generations of the enslaved in Louisiana not to change a single iota!
Coincidentally, in our research of Laura's (of Laura Plantation) family, we have visited many times her ancestral village, Ste-Honorine-du-Fay, in Normandie, never realizing until too late, that Senghor was living the last years of his life just five miles down the road.
We have had the pleasure of meeting with descendants of President Senghor, grandchildren, who, before Katrina, were living in New Orleans with their families. At present, our publishing company is working again with Steve Duplantier, now living in Costa Rica, on a new book regarding Fortier's Brer Rabbit (Compair Lapin) tales.

Germany: 1 in 100 infected with virus, health minister says
by: FRANK JORDANS, Associated Press
BERLIN (AP) — Germany's health minister said Friday that more than 1% of the population — almost a million people — are currently infected with the coronavirus, and called on citizens to get vaccinated if they haven't done so yet.
The country confirmed 74,352 new daily COVID-19 cases and 390 additional deaths, figures published by the federal disease control agency showed. According to the Robert Koch Institute's calculations, some 925,800 people in Germany are considered actively infected with the virus.
Health Minister Jens Spahn noted that the number of unvaccinated residents who are infected and seriously ill is much higher than their share of the overall population.
"If all German adults were vaccinated, we wouldn't be in this difficult situation," he told reporters in Berlin.
Spahn spoke a day after federal and state leaders announced tough new restrictions that largely target unvaccinated people, preventing them from entering nonessential stores, restaurants, sports and cultural venues.
The government also plans to submit a general vaccine mandate for parliament to consider. Government spokesman Steffen Seibert said lawmakers could vote on the issue in early January.
Spahn, who is likely to leave office next week when Germany's new center-left government takes office, has opposed compulsory vaccination and made clear Friday that he would vote against the measure.
About 68.8% of people in Germany are fully vaccinated, while the government has set a minimum target of 75%. For the first time since the summer, more than 1 million doses were administered on a single day Wednesday.
Authorities in Berlin have banned a protest planned Saturday by opponents of the pandemic measures. Police in the capital said past demonstrations had shown that participants failed to abide by infection prevention rules, including refusing to wear masks.
Germany's association for intensive care medicine, DIVI, has welcomed the newly agreed restrictions. But its head, Gernot Marx, told the dpa news agency that the number of COVID-19 patients treated in ICUs would likely reach a new record high over the festive period.
The head of the Robert Koch Institute, Lothar Wieler, cautioned that a plateau in new cases seen in some regions could be the result of labs and local health offices reaching the limits of what they can process.
"So it's too early to read a trend reversal into this, much less to refrain from tougher measures," he said.
