It seems to be getting more and more thin at the wide receiver position for the Dallas Cowboys. With the cutting of Dez Bryant earlier in the year, the Cowboys were left without a deep threat for Dak Prescott in his third season at the helm for Dallas.
It has gotten worse for Dallas as they have lost Terrance Williams not only from being on the injured reserve but he was also dealt a three-week suspension for violating the NFL's Substance Abuse Policy on Thursday afternoon.
If or when Williams is activated from the IR he will have to serve the suspension unless he is wanting to appeal the process.
Williams appeared in the first three games for the Cowboys this season, only tallying 2 receptions for only 18 yards.

Welcome to the FPS Rose Encyclopedia, which is produced by Foundation Plant Services (FPS) at University of California Davis. The FPS Rose Encyclopedia is our way of sharing our ongoing work at FPS with a global world. As Director of FPS, for many years, I have wished we had the resources to document and photograph the roses in our collection. It is the largest public collection of virus tested roses in the world and is very deserving of quality documentation.
Our FPS custom database has recently been transformed by the work of programmer Karl Krist, our FPS technology director. This has made it practical for us to begin documenting the characteristics of each rose cultivar in our collection in a new application, the FPS Rose Encyclopedia. Judy Lee, the FPS rose specialist, took on this heroic task, depending on the irreplaceable Modern Roses 12. Also, Val Krist has created a wonderful design for the site which is both attractive, and easy to use. We have further enriched the Rose Encyclopedia with thousands of beautiful photographs taken by our photographic team of Karl Krist, Val Krist, Marita Madeloni, and Sue Sim. We are proud to share these photos with others who are as passionate about roses as we are. We have provided each photo as a downloadable file that is full size and printable- click on each rose picture to download the full-size image. All we ask is that you give 'The Regents of the University of California' credit for the image.
Our FPS rose collection has grown to contain over 548 cultivars and 2,372 plants; it covers eight acres with plans of expansion. The FPS rose program was originally established in the 1960's by Dr. George Nyland; his work lead to the establishment of a virus-tested collection at UC Davis. Bud wood from these plants was then made available to nurseries and growers to serve as a source of propagating stock. Our commercial rose nurseries have used this collection to create clean nursery stock that is more successful in the propagating process at commercial nurseries and more productive in garden. We sell exclusively unrooted cuttings to commercial nursery and propagators. The Garden Rose Council has been supporting this effort for over 20 years. We and the rose growing public owe them a great debt of gratitude.


The Detroit Historical Society contracted B.R. Howard for a conservation treatment of their Meier Clock after it had been vandalized. It had once been displayed at the 1906 Michigan State Fair and at the 1934 Chicago World's Fair. The clock is set in a solid mahogany-carved case, weighing 2,500 pounds and standing 15' high by 7' wide.
The clock was disassembled, crated, and transported to our facility. All detached mechanical components were carefully labeled and separated from the fractured glass. Bent and fractured mechanisms of the works were repaired or replicated in order to return to the clock to functioning condition. Fragments of the original dial were aligned for documentation in order to accurately replicate the dial. The 38" diameter face was replicated by water jetting 3/8" glass and the decorative water gilding and paint was applied to rear surface. The mahogany wooden bezels around the clock faces were repaired and other were or reproduced on a lathe. All scratches, gouges and splits on the carved wooden casework were repaired and toned to match original finishes. The clock was assembled to ensure it was properly functioning. It was then partially disassemble, crated, returned, and installed at the historical society.

Economic Review – January 2020
BREXIT DELIVERED?
The UK officially left the EU on 31 January and is now embarking on an 11-month transition period during which formal trade negotiations will take place.
Brexit has undoubtedly been an arduous process, costing two British Prime Ministers their jobs and dividing families the length and breadth of the country. However, since Boris Johnson won a landslide victory in December's election with a mandate to 'get Brexit done', the UK had been heading inexorably towards the EU exit door.
The final hurdle in the 1,317-day saga was safely cleared when the European Parliament rubber-stamped the Withdrawal Agreement on 29 January. And, at the stroke of 11pm on 31 January, the UK ceased to be a member of the EU; the divorce had finally been sealed.
In many ways, however, while Brexit day carried huge political symbolism – with a commemorative 50p coin minted to mark the occasion – little will change initially as the country enters a transition period due to last until 31 December 2020. So, while UK citizens are no longer EU citizens, the country remains in the EU single market and customs union and will continue to follow EU rules.
More significant changes are likely to occur on 1 January 2021, the UK's first scheduled day outside of EU rules. And what happens then will depend upon the type of deal the UK manages to negotiate with the EU. Formal trade talks are due to start towards the end of February or early March with the British government's stated aim to secure a 'zero tariff, zero quota' free trade deal by the end of 2020.
With trade deals typically taking years to conclude, there is scepticism that negotiations can be completed within such a short timescale. However, while reaching agreement on a comprehensive deal by the end of 2020 may prove elusive, securing a 'bare bones' package covering areas such as trade, fisheries and security certainly could be achievable.
BUSINESS SENTIMENT IMPROVING
Although data released by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) has confirmed the economy was weak during the final few months of last year, recent survey data points to a potential pick-up in economic activity.
Gross domestic product statistics released by ONS showed the UK economy grew by a lacklustre 0.1% in the three months to end-November 2019. Additionally, year-on-year growth across the September–November period slowed to just 0.6%, from 1.0% in the previous three-month period; this represents the lowest annual rate of expansion since spring 2012.
This sluggish performance last autumn, however, partly reflects the heightened political uncertainty relating to Brexit and the forthcoming general election at that point in time. And, more recently, there have been clear signs of a post-election pick-up in the economy with survey evidence pointing to improved business sentiment and growing consumer confidence.
For instance, the January UK Purchasing Managers' Index found that companies enjoyed their best month for over a year, while a recent Confederation of British Industry survey pointed to a record jump in confidence amongst manufacturers. There have also been signs of the public adopting a more upbeat demeanour in the aftermath of the election, with a survey commissioned by Barclaycard revealing a distinct rise in consumer optimism.
Whether or not this improved level of confidence will translate into a meaningful and sustained boost to economic growth remains to be seen, but economists have certainly been heartened by improvements across such a wide range of indicators since the general election result was announced. And there is certainly growing optimism that the UK economy has enjoyed a relatively encouraging start to the new year.
(Data compiled by TOMD)
At the end of January, several major global markets closed in negative territory. The recently signed US-China trade deal was expected to lift the global economy, but the coronavirus outbreak, coupled with lethargic US economic data and mixed corporate earnings, has intensified global growth concerns.
In the UK, the FTSE 100 closed on Brexit day down 3.40% to end January on 7,286.01. The FTSE 250 followed suit, losing 3.38%. The mood was similarly negative on European markets, as the Euro Stoxx declined 2.78% in the month. In the US, the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average had its first monthly loss since August, while the Nasdaq was supported by strong earnings from Amazon.
On the foreign exchanges, sterling closed the month at $1.32 against the US dollar. The euro closed at €1.18 against sterling and at $1.12 against the US dollar.
Gold had its best performance in five months as concerns drove investors toward safe-haven assets. The precious metal is currently trading at around $1,590.14 a troy ounce, a gain of 4.82% on the month.
Crude prices slipped as disruptions to supply chains and travel curbs took hold. Traders continue to worry about the virus' impact on global demand. Brent crude is currently trading at around $56 a barrel, a loss of over 15% on the month.

INFLATION FALLS; RATES ON HOLD
Despite the rate of inflation in the UK falling to its lowest level in more than three years, the Bank of England (BoE) once again opted to leave interest rates on hold.
Official ONS data showed that the Consumer Prices Index 12-month rate – which compares prices in the current month with the same period a year earlier – stood at 1.3% in December, lower than all forecasts in a Reuters poll of economists. It was also lower than the 1.5% rate recorded during the previous month and means that prices are now increasing at their slowest pace since November 2016.
This easing of inflationary pressures was partly driven by a fall in hotel room costs, with ONS saying that a third of all hotels surveyed in December reported falling prices, compared with just one in 10 that reported an increase. Steep reductions in the price of women's clothing also helped push down December's overall rate of inflation.
However, despite the benign inflation data, the BoE once again decided to leave interest rates unchanged following the latest meeting of the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) on 30 January. In Mark Carney's final rate-setting meeting as Governor, the MPC voted 7-2 to maintain its existing monetary policy stance and leave the Bank Rate on hold at 0.75%.
A spate of soft economic data had fuelled speculation that rates would be cut at this meeting, but instead policymakers said they wanted to monitor whether a post-election pick-up in business sentiment would lead to stronger growth. The minutes of the meeting, though, did state that the MPC remained poised to reduce rates, if necessary. The next meeting is scheduled to take place on 26 March and will be the first chaired by new BoE Governor Andrew Bailey.
BUDGET DATE ANNOUNCED
Chancellor Sajid Javid has promised an 'infrastructure revolution' when he delivers the country's first post-Brexit Budget on Wednesday 11 March.
The annual fiscal event, which was delayed from last autumn due to the general election, will allow the government to formalise spending commitments made during the election campaign. Announcing the revised date at a construction site in Manchester, the Chancellor pledged billions of pounds in infrastructure spending, with a shakeup of Treasury rules likely to see higher levels of investment directed towards projects in the Midlands and north of England.
Following the announcement, Mr Javid said: "We set out in our manifesto how we can afford to invest more and take advantage of the record low interest rates that we are seeing. There will be up to an extra £100bn of investment in infrastructure over the next few years that will be transformative for every part of our country."
Meanwhile, the latest public sector finance statistics released by ONS provided the Chancellor with a modest degree of cheer. UK public sector net borrowing (the gap between the country's overall income and expenditure) totalled £4.8bn in December 2019. This was £0.2bn less than the same month of the previous year and £0.5bn below market expectations.
This better-than-expected December figure, allied with new rules that will allow the Chancellor to increase public borrowing in order to invest for the future, will provide some potential room for manoeuvre as Mr Javid finalises his Budget plans. However, total borrowing across the first nine months of the fiscal year still amounted to £54.6bn, a £4.0bn increase on the same period of the previous financial year, and this will inevitably provide some restraint to the Chancellor's spending ambitions.

From Events to Podcasts, Inspirational Resources for Female Entrepreneurs
Kimberly Hurley
More and more women have begun venturing into the business realm to become prominent entrepreneurs in a wide range of fields. From marketing and business to health and motivation, there is endless advice available for women wanting to take the risks of starting a new business and refusing to give up. Things like books, podcast, networking groups, and social media are just a few available resources that can be very useful for female entrepreneurs.
Of course, books are a popular resource for women in business who are looking for some inspiration. Perhaps the most commonly known book is Lean In by Sheryl Sandberg, the chief operating officer of Facebook, but there are many more. For example, Nicola Heulin of Chester, England penned The Invisible Revolution: Join the Empowered Mumpreneurs – Inspiration, Insights & Practical Advice to Build a Business You Love, which outlines 14 "pillars" that working mothers need to succeed.
podcast.womenintechshow.com/
Podcasts are also an excellent source of inspiration and wisdom. Women working in the technology field may appreciate podcasts like Recode Decode hosted by Kara Swisher and Women in Tech hosted by Espree Devora. Pivot Podcast hosted by Jenny Blake and Women Taking the Lead hosted by Jodi Flynn are good for motivation and provide tips on how to overcome self-doubt that many women have throughout the process of becoming an entrepreneur. For women who have a great idea but need help getting started, The Fearless Launching Show is another great podcast hosted by Anne Samoilov.
Many successful women also maintain YouTube channels and give presentations such as TED talks that discuss how they got started in their businesses and the obstacles they have faced along the way.
Social media is also full of inspiration for female entrepreneurs. Alyssa Nobriga's Instagram profile has many motivational quotes and Rachel Luna's profile can help boost confidence in the workplace. Facebook even offers its own #SheMeansBusiness portal, which provides inspiration, advice, resources, and links to communities for female entrepreneurs. Twitter users can follow Shark Tank's Barbara Corcoran, who regularly tweets useful information and gives links to her podcasts, which are all packed with solid business advice.
We are always hearing about how networking is a huge part of success, so there are also many "Networking for Women" events in major cities. Many of these groups are free with no commitments and attendees can meet other women in their fields and possibly spark future partnerships. Successful entrepreneurs also oftentimes agree to give talks at these to share their professional insight and experience. Sharing successes and failures with other women can make a huge difference to those who are serious about their businesses.
Online resources such as The Female Entrepreneur Association are also very helpful. The website states that there are over 650,000 women in the network spanning across 67 countries and 500 industries. Social networks like these provide things like useful checklists, "master classes," Q&As, job search advice, and resources like videos and articles that discuss the "hard truths" of being in business.
Overall, successful women are usually greatly inspired by other successful women. Researching advice from extremely popular entrepreneurs and reading their biographies can also give inspiration, as many of them paved the way to success by themselves. Women have started to become an unwavering force in the workplace and as time goes on, inspirational resources like those mentioned (and more) have the potential to boost confidence and assist many women in reaching great success.

The Additions to Esther
The Letter of Jeremiah
Song of the Three Young Men
The Prayer of Manasseh
1So Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, "My father and my brothers, with their flocks and herds and all that they possess, have come from the land of Canaan; they are now in the land of Goshen." 2And from among his brothers he took five men and presented them to Pharaoh. 3Pharaoh said to his brothers, "What is your occupation?" And they said to Pharaoh, "Your servants are shepherds, as our fathers were." 4They said to Pharaoh, "We have come to sojourn in the land; for there is no pasture for your servants' flocks, for the famine is severe in the land of Canaan; and now, we pray you, let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen." 5Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Your father and your brothers have come to you. 6The land of Egypt is before you; settle your father and your brothers in the best of the land; let them dwell in the land of Goshen; and if you know any able men among them, put them in charge of my cattle."
7Then Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh, and Jacob blessed Pharaoh. 8And Pharaoh said to Jacob, "How many are the days of the years of your life?" 9And Jacob said to Pharaoh, "The days of the years of my sojourning are a hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their sojourning." 10And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from the presence of Pharaoh. 11Then Joseph settled his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded. 12And Joseph provided his father, his brothers, and all his father's household with food, according to the number of their dependents.
13Now there was no food in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan languished by reason of the famine. 14And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought; and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house. 15And when the money was all spent in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, "Give us food; why should we die before your eyes? For our money is gone." 16And Joseph answered, "Give your cattle, and I will give you food in exchange for your cattle, if your money is gone." 17So they brought their cattle to Joseph; and Joseph gave them food in exchange for the horses, the flocks, the herds, and the asses: and he supplied them with food in exchange for all their cattle that year. 18And when that year was ended, they came to him the following year, and said to him, "We will not hide from my lord that our money is all spent; and the herds of cattle are my lord's; there is nothing left in the sight of my lord but our bodies and our lands. 19Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for food, and we with our land will be slaves to Pharaoh; and give us seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land may not be desolate."
20So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for all the Egyptians sold their fields, because the famine was severe upon them. The land became Pharaoh's; 21and as for the people, he made slaves of them#47.21 Sam Gk Compare Vg: Heb he removed them to the cities from one end of Egypt to the other. 22Only the land of the priests he did not buy; for the priests had a fixed allowance from Pharaoh, and lived on the allowance which Pharaoh gave them; therefore they did not sell their land. 23Then Joseph said to the people, "Behold, I have this day bought you and your land for Pharaoh. Now here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land. 24And at the harvests you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four fifths shall be your own, as seed for the field and as food for yourselves and your households, and as food for your little ones." 25And they said, "You have saved our lives; may it please my lord, we will be slaves to Pharaoh." 26So Joseph made it a statute concerning the land of Egypt, and it stands to this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth; the land of the priests alone did not become Pharaoh's.
27Thus Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen; and they gained possessions in it, and were fruitful and multiplied exceedingly. 28And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years; so the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were a hundred and forty-seven years.
29And when the time drew near that Israel must die, he called his son Joseph and said to him, "If now I have found favor in your sight, put your hand under my thigh, and promise to deal loyally and truly with me. Do not bury me in Egypt, 30but let me lie with my fathers; carry me out of Egypt and bury me in their burying place." He answered, "I will do as you have said." 31And he said, "Swear to me"; and he swore to him. Then Israel bowed himself upon the head of his bed.

1So Joseph took five of his brothers and went to the king. He told him, "My father and my brothers have come from Canaan with their flocks, their herds, and all that they own. They are now in the region of Goshen." 2He then presented his brothers to the king. 3The king asked them, "What is your occupation?"
"We are shepherds, sir, just as our ancestors were," they answered. 4"We have come to live in this country, because in the land of Canaan the famine is so severe that there is no pasture for our flocks. Please give us permission to live in the region of Goshen." 5The king said to Joseph, "Now that your father and your brothers have arrived, 6the land of Egypt is theirs. Let them settle in the region of Goshen, the best part of the land. And if there are any capable men among them, put them in charge of my own livestock."
7Then Joseph brought his father Jacob and presented him to the king. Jacob gave the king his blessing, 8and the king asked him, "How old are you?"
9Jacob answered, "My life of wandering has lasted a hundred and thirty years. Those years have been few and difficult, unlike the long years of my ancestors in their wanderings." 10Jacob gave the king a farewell blessing and left. 11Then Joseph settled his father and his brothers in Egypt, giving them property in the best of the land near the city of Rameses, as the king had commanded. 12Joseph provided food for his father, his brothers, and all the rest of his father's family, including the very youngest.
The Famine
13The famine was so severe that there was no food anywhere, and the people of Egypt and Canaan became weak with hunger. 14As they bought grain, Joseph collected all the money and took it to the palace. 15When all the money in Egypt and Canaan was spent, the Egyptians came to Joseph and said, "Give us food! Don't let us die. Do something! Our money is all gone."
16Joseph answered, "Bring your livestock; I will give you food in exchange for it if your money is all gone." 17So they brought their livestock to Joseph, and he gave them food in exchange for their horses, sheep, goats, cattle, and donkeys. That year he supplied them with food in exchange for all their livestock.
18The following year they came to him and said, "We will not hide the fact from you, sir, that our money is all gone and our livestock belongs to you. There is nothing left to give you except our bodies and our lands. 19Don't let us die. Do something! Don't let our fields be deserted. Buy us and our land in exchange for food. We will be the king's slaves, and he will own our land. Give us grain to keep us alive and seed so that we can plant our fields."
20Joseph bought all the land in Egypt for the king. Every Egyptian was forced to sell his land, because the famine was so severe; and all the land became the king's property. 21Joseph made slaves of the people from one end of Egypt to the other. 22The only land he did not buy was the land that belonged to the priests. They did not have to sell their lands, because the king gave them an allowance to live on. 23Joseph said to the people, "You see, I have now bought you and your lands for the king. Here is seed for you to sow in your fields. 24At the time of harvest you must give one-fifth to the king. You can use the rest for seed and for food for yourselves and your families."
25They answered, "You have saved our lives; you have been good to us, sir, and we will be the king's slaves." 26So Joseph made it a law for the land of Egypt that one-fifth of the harvest should belong to the king. This law still remains in force today. Only the lands of the priests did not become the king's property.
Jacob's Last Request
27The Israelites lived in Egypt in the region of Goshen, where they became rich and had many children. 28Jacob lived in Egypt seventeen years, until he was a hundred and forty-seven years old. 29#Gn 49.29-32; 50.6 When the time drew near for him to die, he called for his son Joseph and said to him, "Place your hand between my thighs#47.29: Place … thighs: See 24.2. and make a solemn vow that you will not bury me in Egypt. 30I want to be buried where my fathers are; carry me out of Egypt and bury me where they are buried."
Joseph answered, "I will do as you say."
31Jacob said, "Make a vow that you will." Joseph made the vow, and Jacob gave thanks there on his bed.

What to watch on the final day at Davos
Updated 10:45 a.m. ET, January 25, 2019
What we covered here
Friday was the final day of Davos.
Climate change took center stage. IMF chief Christine Lagarde led a panel about global warming's impact on the world economy, and a teen activist shamed the global elite at a luncheon for business luminaries.
Catch up here on everything that happened at the World Economic Forum this week, and read more of our complete coverage here.
10:45 a.m. ET, January 25, 2019
Christine Lagarde goes big on climate change
From CNN Business' Ivana Kottasova
International Monetary Fund chief Christine Lagarde opened the last panel discussion at this year's Davos by talking about climate change.
The final panel of the conference typically features central bankers and other economic heavyweights, and the discussion tends to focus on the economic outlook for the coming year.
But Lagarde made it clear that climate change is now at the heart of the debate.
Her panelists agreed.
"If temperatures go up two and half degrees, we'll lose 15% of the world GDP. Three degrees, we will lose 25%," said Kristalina Georgieva, the CEO of the World Bank.
The first thing she thinks needs to be done? Eliminate fossil fuels subsidies.
"We have done some, we have shrunk [subsidies] by half, but we still have $300 billion to go … it has to happen faster," said Georgieva.
7:43 a.m. ET, January 25, 2019
Teen activist tells Davos elite they're to blame for the climate crisis
From CNN's Ivana Kottasová and Eliza Mackintosh
While some delegates at the World Economic Forum arrived in private jets, 16-year-old Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg took a 32-hour train.
She's been camping out in Davos, giving up the option to stay at a hotel to sleep in a tent in 0 degrees Fahrenheit weather.
In the process, she's been giving Davos a run for its money.
On Thursday, Thunberg gave an impromptu speech at a lunch with a star-studded guest list that included Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff, former Goldman Sachs president and Trump administration official Gary Cohn, musicians Bono and Will.i.am, and an array of bankers and investors.
"I told them that they belong to that group of people who are most responsible and that the future of humankind rests in their hands, and they didn't know how to react," Thunberg told CNN.
"It was pretty fun."
Richard Quest: Why this Davos was good
From CNN Business' Richard Quest
I'll be blunt: This year's Davos was better because US President Donald Trump (and others) stayed away.
2018 was a historic low for Davos. Trump was here, and some participants treated him the same way teenagers would a pop star. The president was the undisputed center of attention, and his presence caused the conference to grind to a halt. As one minister told me, the oxygen can be "sucked out" of Davos when the event is overshadowed by a prominent leader.
The news that Trump would not be coming this year was greeted with regret by the World Economic Forum (their star guest would not be here), and relief by those hoping to actually get something done. When British Prime Minister Theresa May, French President Emmanuel Macron and other leaders canceled their visits, many commentators couldn't help but proclaim the conference irrelevant.
Now I'll let you in on a secret: Davos has been much better because they stayed away (IMHO). Top leaders still made important speeches (China's vice president, Wang Qishan, reassured the world about the Chinese economy and bashed the United States in the process). The panel discussions were interesting and lively.
Throughout the Congress Center I saw people engaged in discussions on the top challenges we face, including climate change. Attendees also grappled with the fourth industrial revolution, which will see the world reshaped by artificial intelligence, robotics and other technological breakthroughs.
For the past five years, Davos has pushed the fourth industrial revolution theme down our throats, to little gain. Now, the revolution is well underway and the effects are being felt in developed and emerging markets. Government ministers, finance bosses, NGOs, media – no one can ignore the change now underway, and here at Davos there was real engagement.
As I head down the mountain, I will reflect – Yes, it is good to see political leaders giving speeches and performing on panels. But it's even better to see decision makers and power brokers actually getting to grips with issues of vital importance.
Next year will be the 50th anniversary of the World Economic Forum and there's little doubt that founder Klaus Schwab will pull every string possible to get the biggest names here. I hope that in quiet reflection, organizers realize that this year was so good precisely because the circus stayed at home.
IEA chief: It's going to be a volatile year for oil
From CNN Business' Julia Horowitz
Last year was a wild one for oil prices. Fatih Birol, executive director of the International Energy Agency, thinks 2019 could be even worse.
"Last Davos, we sat here and [said] the name of the game is volatility," he said during a World Economic Forum panel moderated by CNN Business' John Defterios. "The volatility [in] the year in front of us may very [well] be much stronger than last year."
Birol cited a laundry list of potential factors: the slowing global economy, the efficacy of an agreement between OPEC and Russia to reduce oil output and the growing flexibility of US shale production.
Then there's Venezuela. Read how its political crisis could hit oil prices here.
5 top moments from Davos 2019
From CNN Business' Michelle Toh
China reassures: Chinese Vice President Wang Qishan downplayed fears about his country's economic slowdown, arguing that growth remains "significant." "There will be a lot of uncertainties in 2019," he said. "But something that is certain is that China's growth will continue and will be sustainable."
Soros blasts Beijing: George Soros didn't mince words in a speech on Thursday, calling Chinese President Xi Jinping the "most dangerous enemy" of open societies. "Instead of waging a trade war with practically the whole world, the United States should focus on China," he said. He also called on the United States "to crack down" on Chinese tech companies Huawei and ZTE.
No love for AOC's tax plan: A tax on the rich proposed by US lawmaker Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was greeted with skepticism by some at Davos. Check out the awkward moment when Michael Dell was asked about it.
Second vote on Brexit? That was the question posed to a large crowd in Davos on Thursday. Almost every hand shot up in support of a second referendum, apart from Bank of England Governor Mark Carney, who abstained.
The king of conservation sits down with Prince WilliamDavid Attenborough was one of the stars of this year's Davos. In an interview on Monday, the naturalist and the British prince discussed the effects humans have had on the natural world since Attenborough started his career six decades ago.
What to expect at Davos on Friday
From CNN Business' Charles Riley
It's the final day of Davos 2019.
Panel highlights include "Global Economy in Transition: Shaping a New Architecture," which features IMF chief Christine Lagarde and Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda.
Our very own John Defterios will be joined by International Energy Agency boss Fatih Birol at a panel titled "The Great Energy Race."
Official events end in the early afternoon. The work of turning Davos back into a sleepy mountain town will commence soon after.
George Soros in Davos: Chinese tech companies cannot be allowed to dominate
George Soros has labeled China's President Xi Jinping the "most dangerous enemy" of open societies and recommended a crackdown on Chinese tech companies.
The billionaire said Thursday in Davos that artificial intelligence and machine learning pose a grave threat when they are controlled by authoritarian states. He singled out the use of such technologies by the Chinese government as a "mortal danger."
In a provocative speech delivered to journalists and executives attending the World Economic Forum, Soros warned that the Chinese government was developing a "social credit" system that would monitor people living there.
Soros urged the United States to aggressively counter the threat.
"Instead of waging a trade war with practically the whole world, the United States should focus on China," said the former hedge fund manager.
Soros also said the United States should apply more pressure to Chinese tech companies Huawei and ZTE, which have been labeled national security threats by some US officials.
"Instead of letting ZTE and Huawei off lightly, [the United States] needs to crack down on them," Soros said. "If these companies came to dominate the 5G market, they would present an unacceptable security risk for the rest of the world."
Huawei and ZTE make telecommunications equipment and smartphones, and both have been caught up in the trade war between China and the United States. The companies have denied that their products pose a security threat.
Hua Chunying, a spokeswoman for China's Foreign Ministry, shot back at Soros on Friday, accusing him of twisting the facts.
"We hope to see a certain American individual correct his attitude, broaden his horizons and view China's development in an objective, reasonable and correct manner," Hua told reporters in Beijing.
Soros warned last year in Davos about the danger posed by major tech companies including Google and Facebook, arguing they were monopolies intent on growing ever-more powerful.

Sleeping Dogs review
A messy story and horrible characters get in the way of decent, violent action in a scintillating open city.
Why you can trust PC Gamer Our expert reviewers spend hours testing and comparing products and services so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about how we test.
Winston Chu has a bulging, tattooed body, a gold-plated gun and a massive square head. He's a gangster, so that face is locked into a permanent scowl, a symptom of years of steroid abuse and a childhood under the fist of a psychotic mother with an unhealthy love of cleavers.
Welcome to life in the triads.
Mrs Chu is your mother, too, in a sense. You're Wei Shen, undercover cop, on a mission to bring down the triads from the inside. The trouble is, once you're initiated, you're family. Another brother in a grotesque gang of crooks and killers. You'll spend most of your time in this richly realised, open-world Hong Kong performing missions for thugs, the better to get close to the sharp suits who run the show.
It's a good enough excuse to step into the slippers of every Hong Kong action movie hero of the last 30 years. There are shadows of Bruce Lee in Wei's fighting style as he fends off knife attacks in alleys. In gun fights he channels Chow Yun Fat, vaulting over tables and hosing down enemies in slow motion. On rooftops, he trades on Tony Leung's ability to look cool in a suit by putting on shades and standing still in front of sunsets. Sleeping Dogs occasionally delivers these moments with more style than any other member of the Mafia/GTA family, but they're folded into a humourless and predictable tale set in a Hong Kong that often feels like a beautiful backdrop rather than a bustling, interactive city.
The main storyline follows an emerging gang war that threatens to overrun the city. A linear series of missions inches the plot along, triggered by you visiting shifting location markers on the map. You start out shaking down local vendors for protection money and beating up enemy gang members to bolster Winston's monstrous ego. Before long you'll be angling for promotion, and occasionally meeting up with your police handler, Raymond, to hear the same lecture about not getting too emotionally attached to the monsters you're working for.
Inevitably, as much as you might not want him to, Wei gets too emotionally attached to the monsters he's working for, but at least there are plenty of opportunities to beat them up before that happens.
The sharp combat system makes this especially satisfying. Punch-ups are heavily inspired by Batman: Arkham Asylum. Wei can counter incoming attacks from any angle, grabbing wrists, elbows and shoulders and wrenching foes into painful new shapes. This display of violent human origami lacks the satisfying Kevlar-on-bone crunch of Arkham City, but fights are satisfying enough, especially when you throw in some of the gratuitous execution opportunities scattered around.
Once you've grabbed an opponent, you can drag him around the city at full sprint by the scruff of his neck looking for an interesting way to finish him off. Useful props glow bright red thanks to an effect best described as 'sadism vision'. You ram heads into industrial fans, throw people into ice chippers, impale them on meat hooks, toss them bodily onto convenient warehouse palettes of severed swordfish heads and, in once instance, kick them into a wide open furnace.
If you don't have the stomach to painfully annihilate every enemy, you can merely break all their bones with a well applied hold, or use a combination of light and heavy strikes to knock them out. Applying a variety of takedowns will boost your triad performance rating for each mission. Levelling up pushes you up the triad skill tree, which lets you boost melee and weapon damage and unlock new moves.
There's a cop skill tree, too. That's driven by a police rating awarded at the end of missions. It's knocked back by any instances of theft and property damage. Murdering innocent civilians is also frowned upon. That sits alongside your 'Face' rating, which can be increased by completing side missions for minor gang members loitering about Hong Kong, and by visiting 'massage parlours' which, it is heavily implied, are actually brothels.
The reward for your crime and debauchery? Gaining Face lets you wear nicer T-shirts and improves an overdrive mode in combat, which triggers by itself once you've punched enough people. This mode enables Wei to do more damage and causes his enemies to cower in fear of his ability to complete fetch quests and pay for sex.
These levelling layers are less interesting than the game thinks they are. I'll never take Sleeping Dogs up on its offer to let me replay any mission to improve my score, but the extra combat moves are worth the effort. The combat gets better as Wei gains new ways to dismantle large groups of enemies.
These fights are the highlight of most missions, which are themselves constructed from a series of action sequences shuffled from a shallow deck. Foot chases lead Wei through narrow alleyways and over rooftops, where he vaults, climbs and jumps with parkour-inspired flair, but every manoeuvre is triggered by a timed press of the spacebar. The car chases are better, powered by an arcade driving model that almost glues your car to the road. You hit screaming speeds quickly and a ludicrous shunt move throws your vehicle suddenly sideways, making short work of anyone in pursuit.
Sometimes you'll be asked to 'action hijack' another vehicle ahead. This involves getting close enough for a cursor to change colour, at which point you press the 'action hijack' button and Wei action hijacks the hell out of whatever is in front of him, leaping unlikely distances to latch onto the hood. He hangs there for a few seconds before clawing open a door and swinging into the driver's seat. Mad, but fun.
Guns are supposed to be hard to come across in Hong Kong, so you won't often see them outside of contained mission environments. This gives Sleeping Dogs a good excuse to fall back on its superior melee system, but the gun battles aren't bad either. Weapons tend to spray wildly, but a handgun and a steady mouse hand let you line up some swift, fatal head shots.
Bum-sliding over objects while aiming down a gunbarrel kicks the world into slow motion. If there's an armed guard at the end of that slide Wei will punch and then disarm him. With the right upgrade you can use this to trigger another slow-mo killing spree. The sticky cover system causes some frustrating moments, but there's more style here than you'll find in any of GTA's plodding shootouts.
The story escalates from small-time crime to a street war, during which the police seem strangely absent. It's easy to forget that Wei is actually working for law enforcement for large chunks of the story. Fortunately, police sidequests offer a ray of light in a gloomy storm of wanton murder. These deliver satisfying multi-part mysteries that let you track down serial killers, smash people- trafficking schemes and generally make Hong Kong a better place for its citizens.
These missions are better paced, more varied and more worthwhile than triad missions, and even let you play with your all-powerful magic police phone. You can use this to hack street cameras to capture drug deals, then launch arrests from the comfort of the massive flatscreen in your apartment. Police missions let you dress up to infiltrate crime scenes – and also a hospital in one standout mission, where you play a cop pretending to be a triad member pretending to be a doctor.
Returning to the triads after those missions is a drag, and sadly they simply run out hours before the end. After that I was left to muddle through the story, baffled by Wei's dedication to his new crew and frustrated by my complete inability to shape a narrative that drove Wei further and further away from the Wei I wanted to be.
Pre- and post-mission cutscenes are a familiar storytelling device in the genre, but this game demonstrates how clunky and painful they are when contrasted with the freedom of an open world. Sleeping Dogs lacks Rockstar's eye for caricature, and has none of Saints Row 's knowing exuberance. We're left with a bland, bloody tale in a setting that deserves better.
The game does have good punching, though. Compared to its competitors, the action sequences shine. If you want to bike down a Hong Kong high street at night in the rain and shoot up gangsters, Sleeping Dogs does a pretty good job of that. If you're looking for story, watch Infernal Affairs instead.

Types of boxing and its growing popularity in the world of sports news
Boxing is a type of combat sport that involves two contenders or approximately the same structure in terms of weight and height fight one another with only their fists. This sports form bears it earliest resemblance with the Minoan, Sumerian or Egyptian contest of fist fighting, as found in many of their reliefs.
Organized boxing was seen to develop from the time of the ancient Greeks. Records show that the ancient Greeks were the first people to formalize this sport by organizing several events and tournaments with these professional boxers. Boxing as a sport was formally introduced in the realm of the Olympics approximately around 688BC.
Europe is said to be the birthplace of modern day boxing, i.e. boxing as we know it today. Modern boxing sees the game being supervised by a referee who is engaged in the event during the rounds to see that the game is being played in a fair manner. A knock out, technical knockout or an injury that does not permit the player from continuing the game determines the winner.
Over the years there are different styles and forms of boxing that have evolved. As the sport became popular across the globe, different countries assigned their special names with their variation of boxing. Some of the popular styles of boxing are Thai boxing, French Boxing, Burmese Boxing, English Boxing etc. However, modern boxing does not allow kicking, something that is practices in some of the styles that are listed.
This popular sports form developed from the Greek and the Roman times. It however degenerated after the fall of the Roman Empire but was resurrected in England around the 12th century and again continued to rise in popularity. Initially controlled by money mostly in the 17th to the 19th century, participants played for cash rewards, viewers bet on the players to make money and the promoters of the game controlled the gates.
In 1908 boxing made a comeback in the organized sports world with amateur boxing being declared an Olympic event in 1908. Modern boxing then came into sports news when two distinct platforms were made for this sport; that of amateur boxing and professional boxing. Amateur boxing is more of a collegiate level sport but finds a place in the Olympic and Commonwealth games. The number of rounds in amateur boxing is fewer and shorter than professional boxing.
Also the scores are mostly based on the number of clear blows landed in the opponent than any actual physical damage caused. Professional boxing on the other hand go on for much longer and have almost twelve rounds and is more tough in its nature. Professional boxers are not allowed to wear any head gear, unlike amateur boxers, and are prone to more injuries and physical damage. The referee though is the controller and can stop a fight in the event of a boxer being unable to defend himself because of a serious physical injury.
Today news for boxing consists of more than just inside reviews of the games being played, but also consist of interviews, details of upcoming fights, schedules, rankings and player interviews.

Stephen Colbert teaches lesson in branding
After Comedy Central execs claimed the comedian's image belonged to the station, the Late Show host offered a unique spin on the importance of ownership and intellectual property.
By Kevin Allen
@kevin_j_allen
Last week, Stephen Colbert was forced to retire the "Stephen Colbert" character from his long-running Comedy Central show, "The Colbert Report."
He made the announcement during a live taping of "The Late Show" on CBS.
The move appears to be in response to backlash from Comedy Central lawyers, who claimed intellectual property rights over Colbert's blustering, boastful, politically conservative alter ego.
Colbert brought back the alter-ego version of himself during a live taping after the Republican National Convention, and he hosted one of his signature segments from the Comedy Central show, "The Word."
RELATED: Stop being an order taker and become a strategic partner. Following the Democratic National Convention, Colbert explained that the lawyers were unhappy about "Colbert's" appearance. To claim someone's name and likeness as your property is a strange notion, but when that name is said a certain way and that likeness is contorted just so, it can cause a bit of a branding crisis.


We are now officially in winter and in a new year. So where is the snow?
Well, for one...don't panic BOTS' fans. The northern hemisphere is going to get a shake-up over the next 12-16 days. Our concern then is where do "we" fit into that change?
Yes, I know. There aren't many items on the list today. Anytime we see a pattern change coming down the pipe, you have to go slow with the details/evolution of it. There is no doubt we are in a warmer pattern that remains active with these southern/cutoff lows. Anything wintry from these has to be manufactured on their own...and that is just too much of a struggle right now.
The Arctic is warming. We can see evidence of that. That typically leads to the really cold stuff getting spread out to the lower latitudes of the northern hemisphere, which is where we reside of course. The problem is that we just don't know where that cold air will go "attack"? It could be eastern Europe or Asia. Perhaps eastern United States. All are up for grabs at this point until we can see blocking signal in the river stream of air above us. Once we can pick up on that, we can then get an idea of impact/timing/location of the shifting cold. We stand at a 50/50 shot as of today of getting this.
So why still talk about it? There are other signals showing up that get too technical to discuss on here.
What we are watching for: Jet stream pattern over eastern Pacific/Alaska. They need high pressure to lock in there to aim the cold more toward us.
Also, a blocking pattern near Greenland. Some of the models does show these features so that is why there is still the risk for a harsh winter reality to come.
It will just take some more time. Perhaps the last 10 days of January at this point.
I know that is frustrating for winter fans but we don't control these things. But we can certainly pick up on their signals/behavior.
Expect many blog updates over the next several days as some key data I am waiting for rolls in.
Until then, hang in there and BOTS!

Q: Changing the property of a control on another form Basically, I have a settings window, and when you click "OK", it's suppose to apply settings to the main form (eg, set font of a control, etc), and then close.
frmmain frm = new frmmain();
frm.OLVAltBackColor = Color.Aquamarine ;

I tried that, but it only applies the settings to that instance, and you can see it if you do frm.Show();
I'm trying to make it so the already opened form has it's control's properties changed.

A: Apply the property change to the form that already exists and is already shown instead of creating a new form and changing that one.

A: In this code you're creating a new instance of the frmmain. Any changes you make to that new object will happen in the new object, not the one you actually want to change.:
frmmain frm = new frmmain(); //Creating a new object isn't the way.
frm.OLVAltBackColor = Color.Aquamarine ;

What you're looking for is a way to call on the already existant frmmain class and change the property of that.
Edit, for example:
using System;
class Statmethod
{
  //A class method declared
  static void show()
  {
    int x = 100;
    int y = 200;
    Console.WriteLine(x);
    Console.WriteLine(y);
  }

  public static void Main()
  {
    // Class method called without creating an object of the class
    Statmethod.show();
  }
}

A: What you are trying to do is not working because you are creating a NEW instance of your main form and updating that rather than the first instance. It is possible to update the main form by keeping a reference to it in your settings form... but...
...it sounds like you are approaching this from the wrong direction.
Don't make the settings form dependent on the main form. Instead create the settings form from the main dialog.
class SettingsForm : Form
{
   // You need to ensure that this color is updated before the form exits
   // either make it return the value straight from a control or set it
   // as the control is updated
   public Color OLVAltBackColor
   {
       get;
       private set;
   }
}

In your main form
 (I'm assuming some kind of button or menu click)
private void ShowSettingsClicked(object sender, EventArgs args)
{
   using (SettingsForm settings = new SettingsForm())
   {
       // Using 'this' in the ShowDialog parents the settings dialog to the main form
       if (settings.ShowDialog(this) == DialogResult.OK)
       {
           // update settings in the main form
           this.OLVAltBackColor = settings.OLVAltBackColor;
       }
   }

}

The Leigh D4R Dovetail Jig is the ultimate variable finger dovetail jig, made by the people who invented variable finger jigs. The infinitely adjustable fingers mean that you can let your creativity run free and design unique variably sized and spaced joints with 100% accuracy. If you want to take your dovetail skills to the next level, the Leigh D4R is the jig that will make it happen. You will be amazed at what you can achieve with this dovetail jig.
Should you consider buying a variable finger Dovetail Jig?
There's no doubt that buying a variable finger dovetail jig like the Leigh D4R is a serious investment, costing more than double the price of a fixed finger jig, and so you need to be sure that you need the added flexibility that variable spaced fingers gives you. In this Leigh D4R Dovetail Jig Review we will look at all the important standard features that all quality dovetail jigs should have first, and then we'll look at the benefits of variable spaced fingers.
The base of the Leigh D4R is a rugged one-piece aluminum extrusion (CNC machined on top and front). The sidestops, against which all boards are placed, are machined right from the jig body ensuring precise joint alignment every time. The top sidestops are also undercut to allow easy routing of rabbeted drawer fronts without the need to offset the matching tail board. The D4R will handle boards up to 24″ wide and 1-1/4" thick.
Two clamp bars hold work pieces horizontally or vertically in place against the machined non-slip textured clamping surface, and the quick-acting cams operate with levers to easily secure and release the clamps during operation, so you don't have to worry about the stock slipping in the middle of a cut.
With a detailed instructional manual that supplies illustrated step-by-step instructions for assembly and operation, the D4R is easy to set up and use. A 50-minute instructional DVD is also helpful if you want to see the Jig in action. Bear in mind that it will take longer to set up than fixed finger jigs but that's the price you pay for the increased versatility. The D4R can be used with almost any router, and the included Leigh e7 template guide bush helps guide the bit through the wood without touching the guide bush or the guide surface. The finger assembly is removable and flips to change from through to half-blind mode; this reversing action automatically positions the scale correctly. In addition the easy-to-read, calibrated scale at each end of the finger assembly helps you align the work piece so that it remains parallel to the fingers.
The D4R features two new spacers that allow you to cut half-blind dovetail joints with a single pass, and finger/box joints with accuracy and precision. With the use of a dual-function spacer that creates the ideal spacing between the fingers, the correct offset on the tail board, and limits the distance the router can travel, you can quickly cut half-blind dovetail, box, or finger joints that fit together perfectly.
Make your joint match your stock – with a fixed finger jig you will have to make your stock match the incremental pitch of the template because all dovetail joints should begin and end with a half pin.
A lot of people think that the evenly-spaced pins and tails produced by a fixed finger template give your work a machine-cut look. By varying the size and space between the pins and tails you get a classic hand-cut look. The Leigh D4R allows you to arrange your dovetail pattern as if you were going to cut the joints by hand. You design the layout first and then set the jig to fit the work. Using the included guide finger screwdriver, you can adjust the fingers to match the layout that you designed. After you set the spacing and cut the tails, you simply flip the finger assembly around with no further adjustment and you will have the correct spacing for the pins.
The last thing you want to do after you unbox your brand new dovetail jig is to go hunting for equipment that should have been included. The jig includes everything you need to cut infinitely variable through, half-blind, rabbeted half-blind and sliding dovetail joints. You just need to add the router and you're all set!
Leigh Industries provides a five year limited warranty.
The versatility of the joints that you can make is increased by five optional templates that expand the D4R's capabilities to include finger joints, Isoloc joints, and multiple mortise and tenon joints.
How much should you expect to pay for the Leigh D4R?
There's no denying this is an expensive piece of kit and there aren't any huge discounts around. One thing we did notice was that people are so impressed with the quality and features of the jig that hardly anyone even mentions the price.
We couldn't find any complaints for this dovetail jig on consumer sites around the internet. If there is anything that users point out, it's that it does require a little time to get it set up but the instruction DVD and manual are put together so well it makes it so easy – and once it is set up the results are amazing!

Saint of September 11, 2001
Dear Members, Companions, Volunteers, and Friends,
Seventeen years ago, the world watched in horror as planes crashed into the World Trade Center in New York, into the Pentagon in Washington, and into a field in Pennsylvania. But as the world watched, many people responded with great courage and compassion. Franciscan Friar Mychal Judge, a chaplain with the New York City Fire Department, was one of the first responders and later identified as one of the first victims of the terrorist attack.
Books have been written about his life, and a film, Saint of 9/11, documented his story. It is a story many of you have heard and one that I have told on numerous retreats. But given the 17th anniversary of his death and where we are today as a community of faith once again dwelling in shame and scandal, Fr. Mychal's story bears remembering.
In his biography of Fr. Judge, Michael Ford paints a portrait of a priest who knew who he was as a Franciscan, a recovering alcoholic, and a gay priest. Though he never shunned the spotlight and enjoyed rubbing shoulders with the high and mighty, Mychal Judge spent most of his life serving the down and out. In addition to his work with the poor, hungry, and homeless in the city, he was one of the first priests in New York City to open his heart to people living and dying with AIDS in the early 1980s.
The former Jesuit, John McNeill, who served as Mychal's spiritual director for a time, describes when many in the church slammed their doors early in the AIDS epidemic to those afflicted with the disease, Fr. Judge "would go into the room of AIDS patients wearing his Franciscan robes [and] he would run into real hostility from those who had been badly burned by the church—and that would be most. He tried to figure out how to bring them God's message without preaching because he knew that was unacceptable to them. He came up with what he thought was a brilliant idea. He would go into their rooms and, despite the state of the patients' bodies, would pull back the blankets and massage their feet. That was his approach. People were afraid to be in the room with them or even talk with them. But here was this very gentle and wonderful person coming in and massaging their feet. That would break down all their resistance! It did take courage because there was a real fear."
The key to Fr. Mychal Judge's charismatic and compassionate presence in the lives of others was his own experience of the cross. According to Ford, "His sense of leadership emerged through his living the Franciscan charism of joy and sense of purpose, with an emphasis on the reality of Jesus being the Light of the Word, the Bread of Life, and the Good Shepherd. There was a moral leadership of persuasion there rather than a leadership of office."
This is the kind of leadership we need in the church today: servant leaders who know their weakness but who also have an inner resolve to know and trust the providence and promise of God through the blood of the cross. As Michael Ford writes of Fr. Mychal Judge, "For him the cross represented the place of God's most intimate engagement with the world." Indeed, if we keep looking through the door of the cross, we will be humble in our approach to one another.
Father Mychal was killed on September 11, 2001 when he was hit by falling debris at the World Trade Center as he prayed with a dying firefighter. The picture of firefighters carrying his lifeless body out of the carnage and debris was on the cover of newspapers and magazines around the world. The firefighters placed his body on the altar at St. Peter's Church near ground zero.
Each morning, Mychal Judge began his day with this prayer. It captures well the servant leadership he lived until the day he died seventeen years ago and the quality of humble service each of us are called to today:
"Lord, take me where you want me to go;
let me meet who you want me to meet;
tell me what you want me to say,
And keep me out of Your way."
With peace in the blood of Christ,
Joe Nassal, C.PP.S.


What do you need: A Mobile Website or an iPhone Custom App or Android Custom App?
Your business has an audience of involved stakeholders. These are your employees, partners, sponsors, and whoever else that come in contact with or "touch" your customers.
Owning a successful brand includes the art of controlling the image you want those customers to have of you. Thus, since your stakeholders help shape that image, it would be prudent to make certain they know what that image is and how you want it reflected. That being said, can you honestly say those stakeholders have an equal understanding of your brand and its attributes, and how you want to be perceived by your customers?
Do your stakeholders know what your brand promise is to your customers?
Do they know why you're different or better than your competitors?
Are they cognizant of the intangibles that keep you ahead of the pack?
If you answered "no" to any of those questions then you might have some work to do.
Your brand in part is your label and what you want your customers to see, think, feel and know about your company. If your stakeholders don't have guidelines or a blueprint to follow to project that, you need to create or redefine your brand strategies now.
A strong brand image is one that influences buying decisions and shapes perceptions held by your customers and prospects. It makes people trust that image and allows you to command a premium price for your product or service.
Creating brand philosophy or thoughtfully planned strategies to market and project that brand image and reputation is the first step to enforcing them.
However, before we list a few important elements of a Brand Strategy Planning Program, I thought it advantageous to clarify common business branding issues.
For a number of small business owners, their brand is not the easiest thing to understand and translate for them. This is a very common conundrum.
So, to review – your brand is not just a logo and slogan. It's the result of all experiences your company creates with customers, vendors, the media and employees. It's the image and great business personality they see, the primal feeling they get and what makes them remember your organization. Understanding the image and feel that people associate with your company is the platform on which your strategies are built.
Drafting a realistic Brand Strategy Planning Program that's professional and stays well-managed is now in order.
Your small business. It has its own great personality, with an intangible essence and a certain perception to those at any level of awareness of it. So, realize it or not, your business already has its own label or "brand" – whether it's a good one or a not so good one – and it's the recognizable "face" that differentiates your company from the pesky competition.
Love it, like it, or hate it, YOUR BRAND IS YOUR IDENTITY! It's who you are, who people perceive you to be, and should be treated as one of your company's most valuable assets.
Simply said, your brand is not just your logo and slogan, but the image, impression and reputation behind them as well. It's also what people consciously or unconsciously feel about your company, and it's the overall "trigger inducer" when deciding if to get involved.
Building brand awareness is often not a focus for busy small business owners, but regardless of how small small is, retail or B2B, your business needs existing brand strategies to strengthen its image to secure an edge in increasingly competitive markets.
Brand sells. Your business needs a solid brand reputation or you're at a disadvantage. Today, branding has become much more than just a trendy business word and is an essential element of selling in the new economy. It conveys your uniqueness, focus and values through the art of creating a consistent, recognizable and unified voice or personality. Unfortunately, in many organizations, confusion reigns as the unified voice or personality is really multiple voices and personalities. Their strong, proprietary image becomes diffused, weak, confusing and out of control.
The key word here is control.
There are sometimes many mixed messages spiraling out of an organization, pulling in opposite directions, and you need a logical, methodical branding strategy to plan, attack and control those messages.

Human chain saves man swept out to sea at Durdle Door
By Helen ffitch 21 August 2020, 6:00 am
Richard Markham
With gales and powerful tidal surges forecast along the east coast of Dorset, people are being warned to stay away from the sea, after a man, caught in a tidal current, had to be rescued by beachgoers at Durdle Door.
The Environment Agency is warning that weather conditions are expected to get worse today, Friday 21st August 2020, as large and powerful waves are expected to overtop sea defences along the coast, including Swanage and Studland Bay, as a result of high tides and strong Force 7 to 8 winds.
The extreme weather conditions will be most hazardous around high tide at 11.15 am on Friday 21st August 2020.
"A human chain in an attempt to rescue the individual at Durdle Door"
Yesterday, Thursday 20th August 2020, a man got caught out by the sea and was lucky to be pulled from the water by people on the beach at Durdle Door. Lulworth Coastguard Rescue Team said:
"A shocking image surfaced on a local social media group. It shows a person in the water and a group forming a human chain in an attempt to rescue the individual at Durdle Door. Apparently, two were in difficulty at one point, the first casualty and the rescuer. We were pleased to hear that they were both recovered and were able to walk away.
"With the large waves and spring tides of late, we strongly discourage sea swimming and playing around in the surf, especially on exposed beaches such as Durdle Door. The undertow is very powerful and will have no trouble taking you off your feet."
Emily Foote

"Amazing to see those who risked their life to try and rescue him"
Emily Foote who was on the beach at Durdle Door and saw the rescue said:
"I also witnessed the whole thing and although people may be quick to jump to conclusions about why he was in the sea, it was also so amazing to see those who risked their life to try and rescue him.
"It was so scary to watch but also the selfless acts of all those involved and the loud cheering and clapping that happened across the beach after what was thankfully a happy ending. As a local I know the dangers but it seems sometimes not everyone understands."

"The south west coast is set for a bit of a battering over the next couple of days"
The RNLI and HM Coastguard are urging people to visit lifeguarded beaches and take extra care on Friday and Saturday. Visitors to the beach are being reminded that if they see a red flag at a lifeguarded beach, to not enter the water, as it is unsafe for any water activities. If there are no flags, then there are no lifeguards. HM Coastguard said:
"The south west coast is set for a bit of a battering over the next couple of days, with dangerous sea conditions involving large swells, strong winds and spring tides expected. Along with the RNLI, we're urging people to take extra care."
"Those arriving to the area may not be up to date with local news"
Steve Instance, RNLI water safety lead for the south west said:
"When we experience conditions such as this, especially during the summer when the region is busy with visitors, it is incredibly important that those heading to the coast keep themselves safe by choosing a lifeguarded beach and visiting within the patrol hours of 10 am to 6 pm.
'With changeover days for holidaymakers on Fridays and Saturdays, those arriving to the area may not be up to date with local news and forecasts so could be caught unaware of the conditions.
'RNLI lifeguards are there to offer advice so if you are unsure about anything, make sure you ask a lifeguard. They will be able to provide information on tide times and guide you to the safest area to swim which will be between the red and yellow flags. Anyone surfing should know their limits and always stay within the black and white flagged area.'
People are being reminded that if they see any one in difficulty on the coast, to call 999 and ask for the coastguard.
