Lost WWII medals of an American hero are now with the veteran's family in Bainbridge Island, WA. Purple Hearts Reunited rescued the medals two years ago and enlisted the help of the group Fundamentals of Genealogy to help track down the relatives of PVT Berlin Edward Small. Through this return, Berlin's service to our country will forever have a place in our nation's history.
PVT Berlin Edward Small (SN: 39229302) was born on 02 November 1913 in Texas to George Benjamin and Gussie A. Small. He enlisted in the Army on 10 March 1941, and was assigned to Company H, 143rd Infantry Regiment, 36th Infantry Division. He served honorably in World War II, earning two Bronze Star medals, a Purple Heart (for wounds received in February 1944), Good Conduct Medal, WWII Victory Medal, and the Combat Infantry Badge for his service. He survived the war and spent his remaining time in California, passing away in Alameda, CA on 10 June 1993.
In 2013, Purple Hearts Reunited discovered and rescued two Bronze Stars, a Purple Heart, and a Good Conduct Medal belonging to PVT Small on eBay for $20.00.
After extensive research with the help of Fundamentals of Genealogy, Purple Hearts Reunited was able to locate Berlin's closest relative—a nephew, Mike Baggett, of Bainbridge Island, WA. Baggett had no idea how his uncle's medals would have ended up on eBay but is extremely grateful for the return. The framed medals will forever have a home with PVT Small's family.
This return was sponsored by a grant from the Military Order of the Purple Heart Service Foundation.

Detroit police seek 2nd suspect in gun deal homicide The shooting killed a 20-year-old man, Winston Williams Check out this story on detroitnews.com: https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/local/detroit-city/2019/04/30/detroit-police-seek-2nd-suspect-gun-deal-homicide/3625807002/
James David Dickson, The Detroit News Published 10:37 a.m. ET April 30, 2019 | Updated 11:12 a.m. ET April 30, 2019
Detroit — After an alleged mid-April gun deal on Detroit's west side turned deadly, a 15-year-old boy was charged. But on Tuesday, police asked for the public's help in identifying and locating a second person connected to that homicide.
At about 6:20 p.m. on April 16, police responded to a fatal shooting in the area of Plymouth Road and Asbury Park, east of the Southfield Freeway. They arrived to find the victim, Winston Williams, 20, unresponsive, lying in an alley.

Medics transported him to a hospital, but he died.
A 15-year-old juvenile suspect, Demar Pernell, has been charged in Williams' death. But in a news release Tuesday, Detroit police say the victim was approached by a second man "who robbed him and fired his weapon."
Police distributed a picture of the suspect and describe him as 5 feet 8 inches or 5 feet 9 inches tall, with a "small" build.
Police ask that anyone with information on the second suspect's identity and/or location call the homicide unit at 313-596-2260. Tipsters who prefer anonymity can call Crime Stoppers of Michigan at 800-SPEAK-UP.

Tristan "PowerOfEvil" Schrage is joining Origen as their sixth man, the organization announced Friday.
PowerOfEvil will be competing with Origen as their sixth member, playing mid when Xpeke doesn't feel he's practiced enough to compete, or has too much administrative work to do for Origen.
"There were times during the split I couldn't play as much because I had to do some stuff for Origen. At the same time, I was not doing everything I could for Origen because I was focusing on playing," Enrique "Xpeke" Cedeno Martinez said in the announcement video. "And I realized if we were to have six players, a real sub, we could be much better, and it could pretty much give me the freedom to play when I'm feeling really good."
"I am proud to be a new member of Origen," PowerOfEvil said. "I expect is leaning new macro play, new strategies, how to approach and handle things because all the Origen crew and players have a lot of experience and are high skilled individuals and I can learn a lot from them.
"To all the Unicorn fans I hope you guys will keep supporting me in Origen, to the Origen fans I will try to do my best to make you guys proud. "
Origen's Maurice "Amazing" Stuckenschneider took to Twitter to explain what may be a confusing team composition to some.
ANNOUNCEMENT IN SHORT: @Origengg is a 6 man team from now, @xPekeLoL and @PowerOfEvilLoL will be like Faker and Eazyhoon. PoE plays at IEM.
In the video, Xpeke explained that the decision came from needing a substitute for IEM.
"I realized I was not going to perform properly at IEM," he said. "I was feeling I wouldn't be able to put in the same amount of time that I did as Worlds, or as someone else could.
He says he suggested a substitute for the team, but then felt it wouldn't be a permanent enough solution to his problem. Xpeke also suggested that that is where rumors of his retirement came from.
"It was hard for me to make this decision. Retiring or not retiring for example was something I can not decide on" he said. "I can not completely say I'm retiring because I really love the game and I really enjoy playing with the guys. But at the same time I felt I had to decide what was the best for Origen and what was the best for me."
PowerOfEvil finished the Summer Split with a 4.26 KDA playing for Unicorns of Love. His team finished fourth in the regular season and playoffs, and were knocked out of the Regional Qualifiers by Origen in the final round. Origen went to Worlds and finished 3-4th after making it out of the group stage only to be knocked out by SK Telecom T1 in the semi finals.
PowerOfEvil's first event with Origen will be IEM San Jose, from Nov. 21 to 22 in San Jose, California.

Being a good pet parent means being a loving, caring pet parent. Some of this advice is basic and obvious, and you will think, "I know that." Of course you do, but despite knowing that, working our busy schedules can sometimes force us to not be as reliable as we should be and want to be. We have to try to be consistent in our pet care.
We of course provide our pets' food, because let's face it, they can't get it for themselves; same goes for water. However, water must be kept fresh. Ever notice that a water bowl left out a day might have a hint of pink in it? Yeah, pink water is pretty. But it's not safe. The extra color comes from bacteria that grows in standing water, especially when bits of food, from your dog's mouth, gets mixed into it every time he or she goes for that needed drink. This bacteria is called Serratia Marcescens, and is also found in toilets, shower and bathtubs. So please remember to keep that water bowl filled with fresh, cool water and clean the water bowl before each use before replacing the water. Both food and water bowls should be at the appropriate height for your dog to eat or drink comfortably without straining.
Most recently I was at a friend's house and heard something slamming in another room. When I asked what the noise was, she said, "Oh, Sadie just had a drink." Drink from what? I wondered, and then it hit me. The noise was from the lid of the toilet bowl crashing down on the seat. Oh no!! Please don't allow your pet to learn to do that. It is most definitely filled with germs—germs that can make your dog ill and then be spread around your house from everything your dog touches.
How familiar are you with these words: "Mom, do I have to make the bed?" Answer, is usually, "Yes. You do." Well, you do too when it comes to your pet and the area designated as your dog's bed. It should be free from dirt, ratty old toys that need replacing, and clean. It should be a place that your dog comes to love as a safe location to take a rest. It should be warm when the weather is cold. It should be well ventilated and cool when the temperatures are soaring. And it should be large enough for your dog to be able to stretch and move freely from side to side; much as we do as humans in our own beds. Same goes when choosing to crate for your dog.
People are aware of buying food that is free of preservatives but are sometimes careless about forgetting to close the open bag. I've seen wide, gaping open bags. This can attract insects and rodents; besides it also prevents the food from staying fresh. Some foods are packaged in re-sealable, easy-to-close bags. Some people prefer food storage containers. Either will do to prevent these problems.
If you use a " mess proof" dog feeder, you must remove the bowls daily and empty the food and water that has accumulated in the "mess preventing lower portion of the bowl holder. If you don't, it will only take a few day to become stagnant and moldy. If you have a dog that is a ravenous drinker or eater, and you allow food and water to accumulate in the bottom under the bowls, your dog will be drinking the stagnant water and eating the moldy food that collected under the bowls, when you take the bowls out to refill. You might find that your mess proof feeder is more problematic than you expected.
Collars and harnesses are not constructed to last the lifetime of the dog. They get filthy, ratty, and too small because the dog grew or gained weight; or too big because the collar or harness stretched out. A proper fitting collar will allow for two or three fingers under the collar. Tags should be in placed securely.
Suggestion: If you put too many tags on the collar or harness or use a leash with a clip that is too large or heavy for the size of your do g, it will pull the collar down and the leash will continually go under the dog's front leg.
If you need to give your dog a pill, do not put it in the food bowl. Most times the pill will show up on the floor later in the day. Put the pill in a small piece of food or product made especially for helping to make pill-giving a lot easier. Do not use cheese if you're giving your dog an antibiotic, as it will interfere with the absorption of the medication.
"Borrowing" medication from another dog parent because you misplaced your dog's dose, or weren't able to get to the store for purchase, can cause severe harm or even death. Every prescription ordered by your vet is specially prescribed just for your dog, according to their age, size, and general health concerns.
Remember to never be careless with your household medications as well. If a household member's pill drops on the floor, you most definitely don't want your dog swallowing it.
Is the sidewalk or roadway too hot for your dog to walk on? If you can't hold your hand flat on the ground for at least 10 seconds, the answer is YES.
Just think of the heat of beach sand beneath your bare feet on very hot days and then you will know just how your dog feels.
Is it cold enough for my dog to need a coat or sweater? If your bare hands feel cold, the dog does too. Better to put it on.
If your dog goes for walks in the rain, gently wipe him or her down with a clean towel once back indoors. Make it a pleasant experience.


Inspiring words from a great master.
The Vietnamese monk, Thich Nhat Hanh developed the "Fourteen Precepts of Engaged Buddhism" in the mid-1960's at a time when the Vietnam War was escalating and the teachings of the Buddha were desperately needed to combat the hatred, violence, and divisiveness enveloping his country.
Today, there are thousands worldwide who regularly recite the Fourteen Precepts of Engaged Buddhism which remain uniquely applicable to contemporary moral dilemmas. They are guidelines for anyone wishing to live mindfully.
By developing peace and serenity through ethical and conscientious living, we can help our society make the transition from one based on greed and consumerism to one in which thoughtfulness and compassionate action are of the deepest value.
Do not be idolatrous about or bound to any doctrine, theory, or ideology, even Buddhist ones. Buddhist systems of thought are guiding means; they are not absolute truth.
Do not think the knowledge you presently possess is changeless, absolute truth. Avoid being narrow-minded and bound to present views. Learn and practice nonattachment from views in order to be open to receive others' viewpoints. Truth is found in life and not merely in conceptual knowledge. Be ready to learn throughout your entire life and to observe reality in yourself and in the world at all times.
Do not force others, including children, by any means whatsoever, to adopt your views, whether by authority, threat, money, propaganda, or even education. However, through compassionate dialogue, help others renounce fanaticism and narrowness.
Do not avoid contact with suffering or close your eyes before suffering. Do not lose awareness of the existence of suffering in the life of the world. Find ways to be with those who are suffering, including personal contact, visits, images, and sounds. By such means, awaken yourself and others to the reality of suffering in the world.
Do not accumulate wealth while millions are hungry. Do not take as the aim of your life Fame, profit, wealth, or sensual pleasure. Live simply and share time, energy, and material resources with those who are in need.
Do not maintain anger or hatred. Learn to penetrate and transform them when they are still seeds in your consciousness. As soon as they arise, turn your attention to your breath in order to see and understand the nature of your hatred.
Do not lose yourself in dispersion and in your surroundings. Practice mindful breathing to come back to what is happening in the present moment. Be in touch with what is wondrous, refreshing, and healing both inside and around you. Plant seeds of joy, peace, and understanding in yourself in order to facilitate the work of transformation in the depths of your consciousness.
Do not utter words that can create discord and cause the community to break. Make every effort to reconcile and resolve all conflicts, however small.
Do not say untruthful things for the sake of personal interest or to impress people. Do not utter words that cause division and hatred. Do not spread news that you do not know to be certain. Do not criticize or condemn things of which you are not sure. Always speak truthfully and constructively. Have the courage to speak out about situations of injustice, even when doing so may threaten your own safety.
Do not use the Buddhist community for personal gain or profit, or transform your community into a political party. A religious community, however, should take a clear stand against oppression and injustice and should strive to change the situation without engaging in partisan conflicts.
Do not live with a vocation that is harmful to humans and nature. Do not invest in companies that deprive others of their chance to live. Select a vocation that helps realize your ideal of compassion.
Do not kill. Do not let others kill. Find whatever means possible to protect life and prevent war.
Possess nothing that should belong to others. Respect the property of others, but prevent others from profiting from human suffering or the suffering of other species on Earth.
Do not mistreat your body. Learn to handle it with respect. Do not look on your body as only an instrument. Preserve vital energies (sexual, breath, spirit) for the realization of the Way. (For brothers and sisters who are not monks and nuns:) Sexual expression should not take place without love and commitment. In sexual relationships, be aware of future suffering that may be caused. To preserve the happiness of others, respect the rights and commitments of others. Be fully aware of the responsibility of bringing new lives into the world. Meditate on the world into which you are bringing new beings.
Although not everyone views Namasté this way – as a deeply spiritual acknowledgment of the soul in one, by the soul in another – this is how I experience it.
According to one source I came across, a spiritual frequency is generated when two people greet each other with Namasté.
"When a person greets another with the feeling that "I am paying obeisance to the soul in the other", a ring of spiritual emotion is created within him. Where there is spiritual emotion, there is Communion with God, and one is better able to access the sense of God's presence. As a result, a ring of spiritual emotion is created around the person who is being greeted as well. This in turn attracts a flow of the Divine Principle or God's power. Wherever there is Divine Principle, a flow of Bliss is attracted." (Spiritual Research Foundation.org).

Please read the following script through until you feel familiar with it, then follow the instructions on your own.
Start this exercise by finding a comfortable position sitting or lying down. Take a few deep breaths—relax.
Now bring your awareness to your fingers. Rub them together and notice their texture, temperature, and the sensations as they move. Can you feel the indentations of your fingerprints? Take your time noticing all of this.
Now rest your fingers where they were before. What are they touching? What does that feel like? Is it soft? hard? What are its features and textures? Really notice what you feel.
Now bring attention to your hands and arms. What do they feel like? Relaxed? Heavy? Tense? Painful? Try to observe these sensations, including uncomfortable ones, without judgment.
Notice your toes now. Wiggle them and feel whatever is around and under them. How does it feel? Can you tell what it is just by feeling?
Next, notice how your head is positioned. Is it upright? drooping? Is your neck turned in a particular direction? Simply notice this without trying to change it. Also note the sensations in your head and neck, including temperature, pain, and relaxation. Take your time noticing.
What about your face? Is your brow smooth or wrinkled up? How does it feel? … Now notice your nose. Can you breathe freely? As you breathe, notice the sensations in your nose and lungs— expansion, tickling, warmth, or coolness. Then notice how your mouth is positioned. Is it pursed? Open? Closed? Is the inside of your mouth wet or dry? Just notice. Also, notice how your skin feels. Is it dry? Itchy, tingling, hot or cool? Is there no sensation?
Now notice your chest and belly. Place one hand on your chest and one on your belly. Can you feel your body breathing? What is that like? Are you breathing fast or slow? Is your breath going more into your belly or your chest? Just notice all these sensations.
Next expand your attention to include your whole body. Where are you sitting or lying? Can you feel the back side of your body touching the chair or bed in places? Without moving, just observe your body's position… Notice that you are being supported completely in this moment.
When you are ready, look around the room and notice your surroundings, without judgment. When you are ready, stop this exercise and continue with your day.
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction pioneer Jon Kabat-Zinn shares several good reasons for us to make mindfulness part of our lives and our communities.
The ultimate promise of mindfulness is much larger, much more profound, than simply cultivating our attentiveness. It helps us understand that our conventional view of ourselves and even what we mean by "self" is incomplete in some very important ways.
Mindfulness helps us recognize how and why we mistake the actuality of things for some story we create. It then makes it possible for us to chart a path toward greater sanity, wellbeing, and purpose.
Today, as we bring science together with meditation, we're beginning to find new ways, in language we can all understand, to show the benefits of training oneself to become intimate with the workings of one's own mind in a way that generates greater insight and clarity. The science is showing interesting and important health benefits of mind/body training and practices, and is now beginning to elucidate the various pathways though which mindfulness may be exerting its effects on the brain (emotion-regulation, working memory, cognitive control, attention, activation in specific somatic maps of the body, cortical thickening in specific regions) and the body (symptom reduction, greater physical well-being, immune function enhancement, epigenetic up and down regulation of activity in large numbers and classes of genes). It is also showing that meditation can bring a sense of meaning and purpose to life, based on understanding the non-separation of self and other. Given the condition we find ourselves in these days on this planet, understanding our interconnectedness is not a spiritual luxury; it's a societal imperative.
Even very, very smart people—and there are plenty of them around—are starting to recognize that thinking is only one of many forms of intelligence. If we don't recognize the multiple dimensions of intelligence, we are hampering our ability to find creative solutions and outcomes for problems that don't admit to simple-minded fixes. It's like having a linear view in medicine that sees health care solely as fixing people up—an auto mechanic's model of the body that doesn't understand healing and transformation, doesn't understand what happens when you harmonize mind and body. The element that's missing in that mechanical understanding is awareness.
Genuine awareness can modulate our thinking, so that we become less driven by unexamined motivations to put ourselves first, to control things to assuage our fear, to always proffer our brilliant answer. We can create an enormous amount of harm, for example, by not listening to other people who might have different views and insights. Fortunately, we have more of an opportunity these days to balance the cultivation of thinking with the cultivation of awareness. Anyone can restore some degree of balance between thinking and awareness right in this present moment, which is the only moment that any of us ever has anyway. The potential outcomes from purposefully learning to inhabit awareness and bring thought into greater balance are extremely positive and healthy for ourselves and the world at large.
Working on our mindfulness, by ourselves and along with others, hinges on appreciating the power of awareness to balance thought. There's nothing wrong with thinking. So much that is beautiful comes out of thinking and out of our emotions. But if our thinking is not balanced with awareness, we can end up deluded, perpetually lost in thought, and out of our minds just when we need them the most.
We sense, intuitively, that there is a soul.
For me, it feels like eternal wisdom… it is the part of me that knows I am one with everything… that know's everything is okay.
This inner awareness has guided me – when I remember to tap into it.
Pause a moment to examine how you experience soul… have you found a way to tap into it?
It's Good To Be Alive Today!
"Everyday I wake up and turn my phone on. I read the news of the day, just as it's coming down. I do my best not to let it get me down. I try to keep my head up, but it's Babylon. This world's in crisis, we try to fight it, this changing climate. The scientists and politicians divided by it. So many ways we could solve it but they would never sign it. This mountains tumbling down, but still we try to climb it.
It's come to people always picking up their rifles. Another school getting shot up – it's homicidal.
Some people trying to fly, some people trying to get high. Some people losing their mind, some people trying to get by. And when you look in my eyes, you see the sign of the times. We're all looking for the same thing.
But what if this song's number one… Would it mean that love had won? Would it mean that the world was saved? And no guns are being drawn today?
What if everybody had a job?
And nobody had to break a law?
Oh, Is it good to be alive today… Oh… Is it good to be alive today.
People used to feel safer when they would hear a siren. Like help is on its way but now they only think of violence. Another youth in the streets and police are in a conflict. And now they hear the guns click.Ebola crisis and ISIS is taking heads off. A drone is bombing a village and now the kids all signing up to be soldiers, all willing now to do the killing now, now are you willing now?
Some politicians out there making up some problems, and trying to tell the people that they can solve them.
With TV shows and soundbites and quotes. But everybody knows that it's all about the cash flow.
They telling you and me, they're making progress. But tell it to the millions of jobless.
It's like a players club with billions of dollars. to get the votes you got to make it rain in congress.
Would it mean that love had won?
Would it mean that the world was saved?
And no guns are being drawn today?
Oh… Is it good to be alive today.

El Premi Josep Maria de Sagarra fou un guardó teatral que es lliurà a textos dramàtics en català a les dècades dels anys 60 i 70 del segle passat. A la dècada dels 80 es lliurà a traduccions en català de textos teatrals d'altres dramatúrgies.

Història
El mateix any en què es va dissoldre l'ADB, el 1963, es va convocar per primera vegada el Premi Josep Maria de Sagarra de teatre, promogut precisament per Frederic Roda, una de les persones més destacades de l'ADB. Als anys seixanta, quan els dramaturgs tenien moltes dificultats per trobar un espai on estrenar les obres, els premis eren, en general, la plataforma principal per donar-se a conèixer i el Sagarra en particular va donar nom a tota una generació d'autors teatrals.

El Premi Sagarra es va convocar del 1963 al 1973 amb algunes interrupcions. El del 1963 va ser atorgat a Benet i Jornet, i a partir d'aquí van començar a aparèixer nous autors teatrals com Joan Soler i Antich, Josep Maria Muñoz i Pujol, Jaume Melendres, Alexandre Ballester, Jordi Teixidor, Alfred Badia i Jordi Bergoñó, tots ells guanyadors del Sagarra.

Els primers 'Sagarres', sobretot, donaven a les obres un caire realista vinculat al moment que vivien. Escrivien en català, que era la seva llengua, però no hi havien estat formats. Per tant, la utilització del català responia a una posició intel·lectual derivada d'una clara aposta ideològica. Tot i que en el moment de l'eclosió la crítica militant els va considerar una generació, aquests autors no seguien tots la mateixa estètica o ideologia, no tenien consciència de grup o generació, i el seu compromís o coneixement de la tradició dramàtica catalana era ben divers. Els unia, però, la voluntat de reflectir la realitat històrica que vivien així com l'aplicació de nous plantejaments formals, tècnics i temàtics del teatre estranger, ja que els referents eren forans. La seva aparició, doncs, va contribuir a la renovació teatral. Una altra singularitat que compartien era que tots s'havien donat a conèixer a partir dels premis, ja que ni podien estrenar en els escenaris comercials ni hi havia editorials que els publiquessin les obres. Van tenir molts problemes amb la censura, que es van traduir sovint en la impossibilitat de representar els textos. A l'entrega del Premi Sagarra del 1968, els membres del jurat es van queixar que no s'hagués estrenat cap de les cinc obres guardonades anteriorment en temporada regular. En els primers temps, no tenien el suport explícit dels dramaturgs de la generació anterior com Oliver, Capmany o Pedrolo.

Check out the 14 new Top Workplaces on the block
It's about the culture, say leaders at some of the first-timers in this year's ranking.

Editor's note: This story has been updated to correct the spelling of the MetLife president and CEO.
During one milestone celebration, the employees of Avalon Healthcare Solutions brought in a karaoke machine and threw a party. Co-founder and CEO William Kerr performed.
"I think I did a Bon Jovi duet with my CFO. It was awful,'' he said.

"But, you know, if the leaders cannot laugh at themselves, then the culture cannot relax.''
That kind of thinking may be why Avalon is on the list of the Tampa Bay Times Top Workplaces. It's one of 14 companies in the Tampa Bay area to make the annual list for the first time. The companies, grouped by their size, are ranked based on employee surveys. Avalon, with 86 employees, is ranked 15th out of 45 small companies on the list.

First-timers who made the list this year range from the giant insurance firm, MetLife, with 1,850 employees in the Tampa Bay area, to InSync Healthcare Solutions, with 74. Others include the Pasco County Tax Collector's Office, Ruth Eckerd Hall and Chadwell Supply, a maintenance supply firm.
Avalon Healthcare Solutions, which works with health care providers to organize lab tests – which ones are covered and when, who can perform them and what price should be paid – opened in Tampa in 2013. The company's purpose, as stated in the company's submission, is to "be an employer to outrageously happy employees, to positively disrupt the health insurance industry, and to ensure our clients are raving fanatics.'' The key is to "hire smart'' and "hire nice.''
"Culture is incredibly important in any company, but especially in a small company,'' said Kerr, a physician and former cancer researcher. "It's not just what you get done, but how you get it done.''
In the "smart'' category, the company is lucky that the health care industry draws a lot of bright people, he said. But a few of them — former employees — fall short in the "nice'' category. They got things done but in an abrasive way.
"That's not a fit for us,'' said Kerr.
He wants employees to be respectful toward each other, collegial, and to also have fun. A committee of employees called the "culture club'' plans company celebrations for milestones. They came up with the karaoke idea. They also have gone all out on Halloween. On the survey, the company refers to the contests as "ridiculously competitive.''
"We had one division that dressed up their cubes and themselves as the Addams family,'' Kerr said. "That got a lot of attention. We had one department that turned themselves and their cubes into zombies.''

For one charity fundraising effort, the top executive whose jar held the most money had to come to the party in a Coca-Cola polar bear outfit.
Company culture is key, too, at Creative Contractors, Inc., said Troy Powell, a senior project manager who has been with the Clearwater company for 15 years. It's ranked 24th among small companies.
"The culture that we have is not just unusual among other participants in this industry, but I believe it's unusual in general,'' Powell said.
"We have a very, very clear path of development for our employees, to make sure that people aren't in a position that they ever feel overwhelmed, that they don't feel like they've been set up to succeed.''
MetLife, also on the list for the first time, is ranked 19 out of the 25 large companies.
Kelly Dieppa joined the company two years ago and said she plans to stay with the company until she retires.

"I've been in the insurance industry for almost 25 years, and I can definitively say this is the best company I've ever worked for,'' said Dieppa, vice president in charge of 800 claims employees in five states.
She said she feels the new energy brought by company president and CEO Michel Khalaf, who took the helm last May.
"He really makes a commitment to continue evolving to meet the needs of the customer, the employees and the shareholders all in one fell swoop instead of focusing on one.'' Dieppa said.

That, she said, "is a company that is going to secure its future.''
Damien Cranwell, senior vice president and head of financial operations for MetLife, has been with the company for 20 years.
Damien Cranwell [ MetLife ]
"I think it's a great company to work for,'' he said. "There's a huge involvement of the associates and managers, as well, in doing things for the community, and I think that's one of the things that stands out from other companies I've worked in.''
He believes volunteering has a side benefit of team-building, giving employees a sense of camaraderie.
And the company also believes in fun. Cranwell said they throw a Super Bowl party every year that is very well-attended. They had a fashion show. And there is the annual cornhole tournament. Cranwell made it to the finals last time in the beanbag toss, but then lost.
"I'm still a little hurt by it,'' he joked.

An API to Video: Why Abstraction Matters
02/21/2018February 21, 2018(almost 5 years ago)
This is the third in a series of blog posts about Mux Video. The first, Video is Too Hard, outlined the problem. The second, Announcing Mux Video, announced the new product.
Abstractions are important.
Software is all about abstractions. Object-oriented programming and functional programming abstract away elements of lower-level computing. The OSI model describes networking as seven abstraction layers. Video.js is an abstraction on top of HTML5 video.
Think of it this way: abstractions hide complexity. An abstraction that hides more levels of complexity is "higher-level" than one which hides fewer levels of complexity. Higher level abstractions can be more powerful and drive more productivity, but run the risk of being too inflexible. Lower-level abstractions are more flexible but don't introduce as much power or efficiency.
AWS won because of its abstraction level. Google App Engine was (and is) an amazing piece of technology, but the abstraction level was too high for most people. Rackspace offered on-demand computing for years before AWS appeared, but the abstraction level was too low to be as productive as EC2 and S3.
What does this have to do with video?
Link to What does this have to do with video?
Today, if you want to build software around video, you have to use an abstraction level that is too low. Instead of building software about the concept of video, you have to build software that manages files, asynchronous jobs, and more.
Mux Video changes the abstraction level. Developers can build software directly around the concept of video, rather than building complex, specialized workflows around concepts like files and jobs. POST a video to Mux Video; GET back a playing video stream, or a thumbnail, or some metadata. That's it.
Without Mux Video, developers have to think about a dozen different nouns before they can think about video:
Asynchronous jobs (transcoding, thumbnailing, packaging, inspection)
Adaptive playlists (HLS and DASH) that describe the various ways in which a video is available
Video files, which are usually fragments of videos at different sizes (TS and fragmented MP4)
Distributed edge caches for content delivery
Ingest points for live video
And a dozen other things: text tracks (captions and subtitles), encryption keys, thumbnail files, storyboards, and more.
This is impractical and inefficient. Unless your company name literally starts with Yout---, Netfl--, or Facebo--, you shouldn't have to do this. (We're going to give you a pass, Netflorista.)
Here is an analogy. If you want to accept payments, is your first step to shop around for a bank, educate yourself on PCI compliance, negotiate relationships with Visa and AmEx, and hire a finance team to focus on currency exchange? Or do you look for an API that abstracts away this hard work and lets you build your software that accepts payments?
Video is similar...only harder. Take a look at this helpful AWS diagram that describes how to build a simple On Demand video streaming system that scales. (If you care about optimizing performance or live video, it's even more complex.)
The abstraction model behind this is broken. If you want to build a website or mobile app that publishes video, you shouldn't have to spend weeks building complex software before you see your first video play.
The goal of Mux Video is to abstract away this complexity so developers can worry less about which H.264 profile to use, or why users in Boston just saw elevated rebuffering, and instead worry about building their own software and creating happy users.
The primitive unit in Mux Video is a video asset - a playable bit of media. (We'd call it a "video," but we care about audio too.) POST a video (or audio track) to https://api.mux.com/video/v1/assets, and we'll take care of the rest. GET that asset from https://stream.mux.com/{id} and watch it play on almost any device.
It seems simple, but there is a lot going on under the hood - far more than the basic AWS diagram above. Mux Video improves video quality, time to publish, and streaming performance through optimizations like per-title encoding, just-in-time processing, and delivery optimization across multiple CDNs.
The abstraction level is one of the most important elements of any software system. After ten years of building video infrastructure, we're excited to introduce an API that finally lets developers focus on video when they work with video.

There is becoming an increasing population of online learners with disabilities worldwide; a large percentage of the online learners reside within the United States. In addition to revised legal mandates stipulating equal access to education and the surge of assistive technologies available to individuals with disabilities, distance education institutions are facing the call for action to provide accessible online content. This article discusses the essential components of a web-based course, the learning advantages that arise from equal access web formatting, and design strategies that leads to creating accessible, online materials.

Structure and interfacial properties of micrometer-thick amylopectin films were investigated. The polysaccharide amylopectin forms the crystalline regions in native starch. By applying X-ray scattering at wide and small angle detection modes, and surface microscopy (phase interference microscopy and atomic force microscopy), we were able to probe the film structure and the surface morphology. The thin films were found to be amorphous with some degree of orientational order in the direction normal to the surface. A step-like surface morphology was observed, with a typical step-height of 100 nm and lateral dimensions of 100 μm. We investigated the interfacial interaction between amylopectin and polystyrene and found that the stability of polystyrene films on top of the amylopectin substrate depends on film thickness: thin films (adsorbed layers of a few nanometers) were stable due to short-range interactions, while thicker films (of a few hundred nanometers) dewetted due to van der Waals interactions.

iOS 5 and an iCloud-enabling Lion update are out [Updated]
By Dwight Silverman on October 12, 2011 at 1:23 PM
[Note 10.14.2010: When iOS 5 was released on Wednesday, so many people rushed to download it at once that Apple's servers apparently were swamped, causing error messages and aborted upgrades. In addition, the process changed so you could actually go into the device and use it, even while apps and media files were being restored. This caused some people to unplug from their computers before the restore process was complete.
The capacity problems appear to be over, and most upgrades now appear to be going smoothly.
I dealt with these issues in this post as they happened that day, and for those seeking help with those problems, I'm moving updates about the issues to the top of this post. – D.S.]
Update: Some things you might want to know about this process before you proceed . . .
Many people online are reporting error messages at various stages of the iOS 5 upgrade. I got one as the phone backup was ending.
Clicking the More Information button took me to a semi-unhelpful Web page. Restarting the process seemed to work.
Other folks are getting an error message 3200, which may indicate Apple's servers are hammered. Keep trying, or try back later. Some folks have indicated that restarting iTunes helps with this, too.
I particularly liked this sentiment, spotted on Twitter.
Even when the upgrade process works, expect delays during downloading and when restoring the apps and media files that were on your iOS device. For example, it took quite a while to restore all my iPhone apps, and now I'm watching the "Restoring iPhone music and videos . . . " progress bar crawl along.
While the app and media files are being restored, be aware that you will not see the familiar "Sync in progress" message on your iPhone's lock screen. Instead, you can unlock the phone, dive in and look around. I would NOT advise disconnecting the cable, though.
Update 2.0: Some folks who are getting a 3000-series error messages report that turning off their firewalls helps. This is particularly true if you're updating through Windows.
Apple opened the gates on the update for iOS 5 today, providing users of newer iPhones, iPod Touches and both iPads with its latest mobile operating system.
You can download it by connecting your iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPad 1 and 2 or third- and fourth-generation iPod Touch to iTunes on your Mac or Windows PC. Oh, and you'll need to have iTunes 10.5, released Tuesday, in order to get iOS 5. Got that?
iOS 5 bring a slew of changes to these older devices, including a badly needed revamping of the notification system; iMessage, which lets you send SMS-style messages without going through your carrier; a reminder system that can be triggered both by time and location; wireless syncing with iTunes; deep Twitter integration; updated camera features, including photo editing; Newsstand, which enables magazine subscriptions; and important tweaks to Mail, including the ability to format text.
It also includes iCloud, which lets you sync music, photos, documents and more between iOS devices and your computers. If you're using a Mac, you'll also want to get the 10.7.2 update to OS X Lion, which enables iCloud on that platform. It's also available today; run Software Update on your Mac to get it.
For details on iOS 5, read Macworld's excellent review. I'll have my own first impressions item Thursday morning in TechBlog.
Worried about whether you should pull the trigger on this iOS upgrade? Rosa Golijan at MSNBC has some advice. Owners of the older iPhone 3GS may want to hold off, she says.
. . . I think that those who are using an iPhone 3GS should think twice about upgrading their devices to iOS 5. While functional and usable, the new operating system definitely feels a bit sluggish on the iPhone 3GS — especially in comparison to how it runs on an iPhone 4.
If you've got iOS installed on your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch, leave a comment with your thoughts.
