The return of the travelling fear factor
November 1, 2012 Dan 1 Comment
Home, they say, is where the heart is.
That might be true but, if Manchester United are to wrestle the title back from City's grasp come May, they'll need to find a second home away from Old Trafford.
For all the criticism they've so far received this year, United have clocked up wins at Anfield (their first in all competitions there since December 2007), St James' Park (where United had failed to score in the last two league outings) and, albeit in controversial circumstances, Stamford Bridge (the first time United left the blue half of West London with a league win in the last 10 and a half years).
In the corresponding fixtures last season United had picked up only a point, courtesy of a famous comeback against Chelsea.
While it's too early to draw any meaningful conclusions from those figures – after all United had beaten Spurs at home and Everton away last season, while both games ended in the defeat this year – Sir Alex will be delighted with the results, particularly as United managed to pick up maximum points, despite riding their luck in all but one of the three fixtures.
Last season United managed to win only once in their trips to Anfield, Stamford Bridge, Etihad and The Emirates and, while City didn't fare much better, winning at Old Trafford and drawing at Anfield, United dropped too many points at home which proved costly in the end.
United's record on the road this season – 4 wins in 5 games – is even more impressing when compared to the 2010-11 season, when United lifted their 19th league title, despite winning only four times away from Old Trafford in 19 attempts – their closest rivals Chelsea, in contrast, won seven times on the road.
The importance of coming out on top against the big rivals away from Old Trafford was highlighted by Michael Carrick, who described the win at Chelsea as "a huge three points".
In a welcome return, United is redeveloping the ability to turn tricky situations away from Old Trafford into positive results rather than defeats as was the case 12 months ago.
So far the key to United's success on the road has been a clinical and composed approach in the final third.
United might not create many chances, but they're able to convert them most of the time, with six of the 11 goals away from home coming from open play and three from a set piece.
Such composure and a newly-found ability to create threats on set pieces are down in no small part to the arrival of Robin Van Persie, who has found the net five times away from home in the Premier League so far this season.
Fergie has always maintained that the season begins after Christmas and this year will be no different but, providing they can call Old Trafford home sweet home again, United's form on the road in these early months of the campaign could prove crucial come May.

As you say Dan, we're certainly picking up crucial points in traditionally tough away games which could turn out to be very important come May. That is always good to see and all credit to the lads & the boss for that. I'm not sure that I'd go as far as to say we're striking fear into opponents though. We are still consistently vulnerable to crosses and set pieces, which leaves us exposed not only to the better teams, but also against more modest but tactically astute opponents. Entertainment aside (& it is entertaining!), it is only the summer acquisition of a clinical, world class striker that has put us in our current lofty league position. Nevertheless, there have been some encouraging signs in the last few games that others are now coming into form, especially Hernandez, plus Anderson (could this be the season!?!) and Valencia. I was also really impressed with Powell for 20-30 mins after he came on yesterday until Chelsea pushed us back. He looks a real talent – confident, aware, two-footed, good touch, eye for goal etc. Would love to see more of him now Kagawa is out and Cleverley looking a little off-form.
Now just think if we'd done more to address the defensive side of our game over the summer… we might even be feeling more confident about the Champions League again!


I tried to join peugeotforums, only to find I'd already joined about 18 months ago. (Obviously found it riveting).
TDOC held me enthralled for about 50 ns, eons ago.
I occasionally frequent the 'other' 406 club, but since they've taken to calling ours 'the taxi version', I'm gonna leave 'em to it.
There's no virtual place like home.
Wasn't me Doggy, I'm always courteous!!

No problem Dai. As soon as I get a minute I'll add and join both groups!


We previously worked with the technical personnel from BlueCompute for many years; our original business grew from a team of just 4 to 20 in a relatively short period of time and both Jim & Alex managed the essential IT growth necessary in an extremely efficient and effective way. This included up to, during and following acquisition by a large multinational.

Action 247 Team Denver Broncos
Chiefs Survive Against Broncos and Titans Earn First Seed
January 11, 2022 Denver Broncos, Houston Texans, Kansas City Chiefs, NFL Action247 Insider, Tennessee Titans
NFL Week 18 Recap
The final week of the regular season has concluded, and it's playoff time in the NFL. This year's Wild Card weekend is going to be epic because of the extra game with the format change. Fourteen teams make the playoffs, and only the top seed in the AFC and NFC receive bye weeks.
Before breaking down the playoff matchups, we cannot forget what happened in Week 18. This slate of games set the stage for the postseason, so it's important to understand how teams finished the year.
There were only a few meaningful games, but they were very entertaining. Here is your Week 18 recap!
Chiefs Survive Against Broncos
If the Chiefs hoped to earn the first seed in the AFC, they needed to win on Saturday. Ultimately, Buffalo earned the first seed with a win over the Houston Texans, but the Kansas City Chiefs still gave it a full effort against Denver.
The Broncos jumped out to an early lead, but the Chiefs fought back. They have now won 12 straight games against the Denver Broncos with their 28-24 victory. The game went over the 45 point total, and Denver covered +11.5 with ease.
Titans Earn First Seed by Three Points
The Tennessee Titans have not garnered much respect heading into the postseason. They are now the first seed in the AFC, but not many people believe in Ryan Tannehill and company. The Titans could be dangerous if Derrick Henry recovers in time for the Divisional Round.
The Titans were nearly upset by the Houston Texans. Although, they currently look like a team that will be upset early. The line closed with Tennessee as a 10 point favorite, but they only won 28-25.
The game went over the 42.5-point total, which was surprising considering neither team is dominant on offense.

Q: Picard-Brauer exact sequence for infinity categories This question may be very naive, or the answer may be well-known. In any case, a good amount of googling did not bring up anything useful (maybe I'm using the wrong words?).
If $f:A\to B$ is a morphism between certain objects (classically rings or schemes), then one can make sense of the unit, Picard and brauer groups of $A,B$, and there are certain five-term exact sequences relating those (in good cases, these are just excerpts of long exact sequences from etale cohomology, but as far as I understand the five-term sequences exist more generally).
In more genererality, in [1] it is shown that one may take for $A,B$ symmetric monoidal categories with coequalisers stable under the tensor product, and that the two five-term sequences arise as $\pi_0$ and $\pi_1$ of a five-term sequence of "cat-groups".
Since i work with tensor triangulated categories, I am wondering if it is possible to relax the requirements regarding coequalisers (which typically do not exist in my context). The coequalisers come from considering module categories over algebras in the symmetric monoidal category. This leads me to believe that the right way to formulate this problem is on the level of monoidal model or infinity-categories.
So: have Picard-brauer type sequences been worked out for monoidal infinity categories (or perhaps tensor triangulated categories)?

together! One of the best means to ensure a giant flop is to run out of power. Modern presentation devices used in college classrooms almost invariably depend on battery power. Suffice it to say that if you have not experienced dead batteries in the remote control of the projector, in the main battery of the laptop or the built in, rechargeable, IPod batteries, you probably haven't had to do the apology tap dance before starting a class. While the old "It worked in my office" opener is cute, it's been done before. We all know that double checking these things prior to presentation works best, but the insurance of spare batteries is always in order.
.Disposable batteries are convenient and initially inexpensive, but they are hardly environmentally friendly. Rechargeable batteries, while more eco conscious and cheaper overall, have the significant drawback of being "dead" and needing charging right out of the package. Sanyo's Eneloop batteries have overcome that. By radically changing the chemistry of their rechargeables, they are able to ship them ready-to-go, like disposables and still remain reusable. The author, always skeptical of advertising claims until they are tested, put Eneloop batteries in two sizes into service almost a year ago. They not only lived up to the claim of having about 80% of their charge retained for very long storage periods and having very long use time, but they recharged quickly as well. Scratch one for skepticism.
electronic devices that have internal batteries.
My only real quibble with Energizer is that while they initially pack up to 3 adapters for a given family of phones ( e.g. the Motorola package on the left), they don't sell new connectors individually,. That forces the purchase of new charger to get a connector for a different brand of phone or type of device.
Energizer recommends that you use their own lithium disposable batteries with Energi To Go because of their high current output, which allows the almost immediate use and recharging of the attached devices, but it can be used with other types of batteries. A little experimentation showed that lithium batteries charged my dead PDA in about 3 hours, while alkaline cells did it in about 3.5 hours and the Sanyo Enerloop batteries in about 4 hours. Cell phones usually charge even faster, All kinds of batteries in the Energi To Go allowed the PDA or cell phone to be used in less than 2 minutes. While the original lithium battery configuration worked best, it seems that the rechargeables have more than acceptable performance for an eco-friendly, "greener" product. Unless you get a "charge" out of doing the time-step waiting to begin a lecture, give this combination a try!
P.S. Here's the new Energi To Go, dedicated to the iPod only, with a smaller form factor and no cables!

PLY DESIGN HOUSE 2021
The finalists made a supreme effort in elaborating their concepts, which is reflected in the high quality of the closing presentations. During the consultations, a threefold set of principles guided the product development: production technology, design, as well as market, economic, commercial and marketing criteria. After a lengthy jury process, Anna Kovács won the Grand Prize (HUF 1 million cash prize, 6-month paid career training programme, royalty agreement) and Laura Schillinger came first in the online voting coordinated by our official media partner Hype and Hyper design magazine, winning the Audience Prize (a study trip to the Stockholm Furniture and Light Fair in February 2022). The evaluation of the entries is published herewith.
Fanni Barta // DOUBLE-DECKER nightstand
The furniture called "DOUBLE DECKER" was initially conceived as a versatile, variable bedside cabinet - small table. It kept the technological profile of Plydesign in mind and targeted new marketable directions in the product range. The very rational structural formula: two-two curved "U" shaped leg and shelves elements has evolved into a strikingly innovative design thought process through continuous product development. The result is an ergonomic furniture ensemble that is complete in both function and usability. The fusion of storage and seating is an exciting and challenging design area, a good and obvious solution is hard to find, but Fanni Barta promises to overcome the obstacles. She has designed newer and newer furniture formations to serve the needs of private homes, sublet living with moving, dormitories, hotels, student residences, community halls. Not content with all of these, she has also experimented boldly with curved interconnected structures alongside linear shapes, charting new directions for development.
Anna Kovács // Accessory objects concepts // Grand Prize Winner
Anna Kovács's work is an outstanding example of how an innovative idea can be turned into an exceptional result with a lot of hard work and diligence. She has a keen sense of finding unusual objects that can expand the Plydesign collection in new directions. By understanding the manufacturer's and Plydesign's needs, she has been thinking about a product line from the very beginning. However, this was just the beginning, the "entry": during the one and a half month development program, she was very open and attentive to the feedback she received during the consultations and was able to integrate it into her work with a high degree of efficiency. She has intensively developed and refined her designs, with a lot of experimentation and appropriate choices. The result is a potential product range that is a niche, original, well-elaborated, and easy-to-produce, and the winner product in PLY DESIGN HOUSE design contest.
Laura Schillinger // Deckhand serving cart // Audience Award Winner
Plydesign's furniture family inspires DECKHAND in name and function, and form. She has reimagined and modestly integrated into the dramaturgy of Plydesign's products a piece of furniture that is nowadays in shadow: the serving cart. In Hungary, it is best associated with the elegance and lifestyle of the stylish bourgeois world between the two wars. Laura Schillinger has sought out new community spaces, internet cafés, rentable, mobile, non-permanent coworking spaces where a sense of home and private comfort can be fused. She positioned her portable storage furniture as a focus for this. Personal work equipment, objects, small items and even outerwear can be easily and ergonomically stored by its user. The structural design is very rational, with two vertical frames and two horizontal shelving units, using curved, molded plywood technology which gives a sufficiently rigid static structure with a relatively favorable self-weight. With its soft lines and delineated design, eye-catching and very likable character, this new furniture type is an excellent addition to the Plydesign fleet.
Áron Sütheő // DINGI baby bouncer
Áron Sütheő's baby bouncer was a very nice match for the design contest. It took into account the material, the factory, and the technology. However, the choice of product is also sensitive: the 21st-century man-child gets the ancient, classical, now scientifically proven necessary movement of rocking - which is not common today. They can feel the security, prepare to move and balance in the first months after they hit the ground. But our age is practical: we don't invest for three months, let's have a wider use! Áron Sütheő nicely transfers the idea to the product, sketching the concept from a cradle or bouncer to a high chair and then a rocker. Leaning on convincing research, he consulted institutions in daily contact with target groups and took the gathered information into account in the development. Market research and a competitive analysis also confirm that the DINGI baby bouncer as an idea is really great and worthy of further consideration and consistent product development.
Ildikó Varga // Lean On table product family
Ildikó Varga's entry, although at first glance it might not have necessarily fit Plydesign's profile, its subtle workmanship and warmth drew attention to itself, and the jury saw great potential in it. Starting from the basic idea, Ildikó has expanded her designs slightly and adapted them to Plydesign's possibilities and collection and extended their function. She was not afraid to go further, to rethink and rethink her ideas, she was open to the process, and thus developed a well-thought-out design that was more in tune with market realities, but which remained true to the lovable spirit of the original concept, a close cousin of it.

San Diego Mother Searching For Her Mentally Ill Son

People suffering from serious mental illness such as schizophrenia often refuse treatment because they don't know they're sick. The San Diengo County is reviewing the mental health services available to thousands of people who are resistant to treatment.
Megan Burke produced this story for KPBS.org as a 2013 California Endowment Health Journalism Fellow. Other stories that are part of her fellowship include:
A Life Destroyed by Mental Illness
County Supervisors To Vote To Close Gaps In Programs For Severely Mentally Ill
Laura's Law: A Program For Severely Mentally Ill People Who Refuse Treatment
People suffering from serious mental illness such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder often refuse treatment because they don't know they're sick. San Diego County is in the process of reviewing the mental health services available to thousands of people living in the county who are resistant to treatment.
Anita Fisher is the education director for the San Diego chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness. She became a mental health advocate when her son, Pharoh Degree, was diagnosed with schizophrenia.
Before Degree was diagnosed, he was a medic in the United States Army and was stationed at Walter Reed Hospital.
"As parents we thought, 'wow, he's on his way,'" Fisher said.
"I have noticed over these 14 years that when he is untreated he is very, very ill but when he is accepting his treatment regime, he also does extremely well," Fisher said.
In a video Fisher recorded in 2010, Degree said he had gotten a lot of help in his recovery.
"I am now certified to be a peer support specialist, I am a peer mentor and I now work for NAMI as a peer helpline specialist. I just wanted to share my story with you all and tell you that with hope, God and support, recovery is possible," he said.
"Because my son has an added feature to his diagnosis, schizophrenia and addictive illness, he often time ends up on the streets homeless and he ends up being arrested, goes to jail or prison," Fisher said.
Fisher said if she'd been able to get her son involuntary treatment, he would not have gone back to prison this last time.
Degree was released from Donovan State Prison on July 10 and he's been missing ever since.
"That has been one of the most stressful times when we don't know where he is in order to assist him to engage in treatment," she said.
Fisher said she knew that her son had stopped taking his medication while in prison.
"We end up in this situation where he's not connected to services. He just walks out and he's probably on the streets, could be anywhere here in San Diego County," she said.
Fisher said she'll have to wait until her son is arrested to find out where he is.
"I literally have 'who's in jail' on my favorites on my computer because every day, I now have to check it a couple of times a day to see if he's been picked up," she said.
Fisher said if her son is listening, she would tell him to please call.
"We only want to help you, we love you, we miss you and we want to help you."

Jarvis Brown
Outfielder
Born: (1967-03-26) March 26, 1967 (age 52)
Waukegan, Illinois
July 1, 1991, for the Minnesota Twins
October 1, 1995, for the Baltimore Orioles
Minnesota Twins (1991-1992)
San Diego Padres (1993)
Atlanta Braves (1994)
Baltimore Orioles (1995)
World Champion with Minnesota Twins (1991)
Jarvis Ardel Brown (born March 26, 1967) is a retired Major League Baseball outfielder who played for the Minnesota Twins, San Diego Padres, Atlanta Braves, and Baltimore Orioles. He won the World Series with the Twins.
2 After baseball
Brown was born in Waukegan, Illinois. After attending Triton Community College, he was drafted by the Twins in the first round (ninth overall) of the 1986 draft. He played in the major leagues from 1991 through 1995, seeing only limited playing time. He was a remarkably fast runner, but did not possess similar talents where hitting was concerned. He had only 227 at bats in the majors, with a career batting average of .203. He hit one home run in his career and drove in ten runs. He did, however, steal thirteen bases.
Brown has a World Series ring, when he was used almost exclusively as a pinch runner by the world champion 1991 Minnesota Twins. In the 1991 American League Championship Series, Brown had no at bats but played in one game and scored one run. During the 1991 World Series, he played in three games and was 0-for-2; he came on in the ninth inning of game seven as a pinch runner, advancing to the third base. Brown thus had the chance to become the first rookie in baseball history to score a World Series-winning run; however, he was stranded. The Twins won anyway, getting Brown a World Series ring.
After baseball
After the completion of his Major league career, Jarvis Brown became head coach of the University of Wisconsin Parkside Rangers baseball program. After just a three year stint, Jarvis was relieved of his duties as head coach where he compiled a career record of 31-108.
As of 2009, Brown was an assistant baseball coach at Carthage College.[1]

Policies and Procedures – You Really Otta Readures!
If we started a career or took a job, we'd be absolutely sure we read the contract. We'd know all about our annual wage or yearly salary, and we'd know about our benefits package and retirement plan.
But what happens when we join an MLM company?
We get stupid, and all that logic and common sense goes right out the window! We place the checkmark in that little box, cross our fingers and hope for the best.
And months or years later we wake up to find a termination letter in our mailbox with no explanation why.
The company has stolen our check and we gave them permission to do it!!!!
Don't think it can't happen to you, and don't think for a moment that all companies have your best interest in mind.

They make them that way to discourage people from reading it, if one takes the time to read what controls your livelihood, you will be amazed at the number of Gotcha clauses you'll find.
All are ways to steal your check.
College does not tell you that employers want a 3.0 GPA before hiring people. So that it also acts a pyramid scheme. You lose time and money!!
Very good advice as always Bob and Anna, and I absolutely love your title!

Kelly Leads in All Head-To-Head Matchups
Brnovich on Top in GOP Senate Primary
Toplines and Crosstabs can be found here
PHOENIX (September 30, 2021)- When Democratic U.S. Senator Mark Kelly was elected last November, he faced a rather unique position than most of his other freshman colleagues: U.S. Senators are normally elected to six-year terms, but Kelly – who won a special election to finish the late-Sen. John McCain's term – would have to face voters once again in two years for a fresh six-year term. According to OH Predictive Insights' (OHPI) latest Arizona Public Opinion Pulse (AZPOP) survey, Senator Mark Kelly is leading the pack in all head-to-head matchups.
This Arizona Public Opinion Pulse (AZPOP) survey was conducted September 7th – September 12th, 2021 and surveyed 882 registered voters in Arizona and had a margin of error of +/- 3.3%.
Republican Primary
While we are still more than a year out from the 2022 election, the Republican primary to take on Senator Kelly is beginning to take shape. National and state Republicans listed Kelly as a top 2022 target almost immediately after his victory. As such, several Republicans began making moves to challenge him. So far, the GOP candidates include Attorney General Mark Brnovich, retired Air Force Major General Michael McGuire, and businessmen Blake Masters and Jim Lamon. Among Republican Primary voters, Brnovich leads with double-digit support (27%), followed by McGuire in second with 14%. Both Masters and Lamon are polling at 6% and 3%, respectively.
Though Brnovich holds support from just over one quarter of Republican voters, the race could still be anyone's to win: 51% of Republican voters have yet to say who they will support. Former President Donald Trump, whose endorsement has proven to be quite powerful in the Republican primaries, has not yet taken a side in this primary – which could drastically change the entire landscape of the race should he decide to weigh in.
"The bottom line: Brnovich is in a strong position right now, but the race is far from locked down given more than half of Republicans are undecided on who they will vote for," said Mike Noble, OHPI Chief of Research.
With 13 months left to go until the general election, Kelly finds himself in a comfortable position, leading all four Republican candidates in potential head-to-head matchups. Against Brnovich, Senator Kelly currently leads 43% to 39%. Kelly leads McGuire 44% to 37%, Lamon 43% to 36%, and Masters 44% to 35%.
It is worth pointing out that Senator Mark Kelly does not poll above 45% against any of his potential rivals. "Evidently, Kelly is attempting to keep a low profile in an off-year while his opponents try to build up name recognition – a strategy that seems to be working, at least for now," said Mike Noble.
Kelly Favorables
Kelly enters the final months of the year with an overall net positive favorability rating of +4%. Forty-seven percent of voters hold a favorable view of the freshman Senator, while 43% view him unfavorably. In the newly minted battleground state of Arizona, Independent voters could be the deciding voters. Kelly's numbers are evenly split among Independents with 43% viewing him favorably and 42% unfavorably. His numbers among partisans align with what one might expect: nearly 4 in 5 Democrats view him favorably and roughly three quarters of Republicans view him unfavorably.
"It's interesting to see how different the coalitions of support for Arizona's two Democratic senators are," said Mike Noble. "Kelly is more of a 'rank and file' Democrat with high favorability among his own party, as compared to Sinema whose coalition is more diverse with crossover support."
Sinema Favorables
Though she will not be on the ballot again for another three years, Senator Kyrsten Sinema's favorability ratings continue to be quite interesting. Overall, 46% of Arizona voters view her favorably while 39% view her unfavorably. Results of this survey found that Sinema enjoys support (and opposition) in places that you wouldn't necessarily predict for a swing-state Democratic Senator.
Among Republicans, her net favorability is underwater by less than 10 points. Less than half (48%) of Republicans view her in an unfavorable light, while 40% view her favorably – a stark contrast to Senator Mark Kelly who is viewed unfavorably by 73% of Republicans. Among Democrats, Sinema's net favorability is positive by only 26 points. She is viewed favorably by just 56% of Democratic voters, while nearly one third (30%) of her own party views her unfavorably. In comparison, Sinema's fellow Democratic Senator Mark Kelly is viewed favorably by nearly 80% of Democrats.
Kyrsten Sinema's opposition to progressive priorities such as a $15/hour minimum wage and filibuster reform appear to be impacting her numbers among Democratic voters. "Kyrsten Sinema still has plenty of time to turn these numbers around, but make no mistake: a 30% unfavorable rating from voters in your own party is not the ideal place for a Senator be," said Jacob Joss, Data Analyst at OH Predictive Insights. "Numbers like that could potentially open the door for primary challengers."
"In comparing favorability ratings of Arizona's two Democratic Senators, it is interesting to see how unfavorable Sinema is among her own party. With three years left until her next election, Sinema has plenty of time to win over these Democrats - and more importantly, the vital vote of Independents," said Jacob Joss.
Methodology: This poll was conducted as an online opt-in panel survey. The survey was completed by OH Predictive Insights from September 7 to September 12, 2021, from an Arizona Statewide Registered Voter sample. The sample demographics were weighted to accurately reflect the registered voter population by gender, region, age, ethnicity, and education according to a recent voter file derived from the Arizona Secretary of State's Office and recent Census data. The sample size was 882 registered voters in Arizona, with a MoE of ± 3.3%. Numbers may not equal 100% due to rounding.

Catholic coalition stresses importance of COVID-19 vaccine for all
WASHINGTON (CNS) — On World Health Day, April 7, a new group of 31 U.S. Catholic organizations encouraged people to get the COVID-19 vaccine as an act of charity and solidarity with others.
The group also emphasized the need for vaccine equity in the United States and around the world.
"This is a clarion call for us to act," said Mercy Sister Mary Haddad, president and CEO of the Catholic Health Association, noting the significance of announcing formation of the group on World Health Day and stressing the role faith-based providers can play as the world makes initial steps to recover from the global pandemic.
She said the pandemic has shown us that "we are so interconnected as a global community; we can't just act in isolation."
Sister Haddad said this new coalition represents all social ministries of the church coming together and is a chance to elevate the work they do and to show how they serve everyone, not just the Catholic population.
She also said it is a way for ministries to respond to this ongoing pandemic at a time when people, other than those in health care ministries, are looking for ways they can help.
"Our faith propels us to act and here is our chance to do that," she told Catholic News Service April 7.
The coalition includes the CHA, Catholic Charities USA, Catholic Relief Services and Jesuit Refugee Service along with religious orders and groups representing church ministries in education, chaplaincy, advocacy and mission work.
It aims to spread the word about the importance of the COVID-19 vaccine through each group's social media platforms and also on the coalition's website: www.catholiccares.com, which has resources from Catholic social teaching, words of Pope Francis and statements from the U.S. Catholic bishops about the moral responsibility to get vaccinated.
The group also is emphasizing the need to make sure the vaccine gets to everyone, particularly communities of color, those in rural areas and places with limited vaccine availability. It also is stressing the urgency of vaccine access in developing countries and among refugees and displaced persons.
Leaders of Catholic organizations that are part of this coalition issued statements about its importance in press materials issued April 7.
Sean Callahan, president and CEO of Catholic Relief Services, said the pandemic and its "shadow pandemics of hunger and poverty are ravishing many countries around the world" and said the most vulnerable "deserve the same access to life saving vaccines that we have."
He also said the common good "requires that we make vaccine access equitable globally since we can only defeat this virus here if we defeat it everywhere."
CRS is the U.S. bishops' overseas relief and development agency.
Dominican Sister Donna Markham, president and CEO of Catholic Charities USA, noted the early Christians demonstrated a "profound sense of community and concern for those in need," which are just as important today "especially during this challenging moment as we seek to emerge from the pandemic."
"Each of us plays a part by getting vaccinated and practicing safety measures for the good of all, and by doing everything we can to ensure that those who are most in need have access to the vaccine and protective equipment," she said.
Sister Haddad pointed out that early on, even in the previous White House administration, she had been involved in Zoom calls about how faith groups could respond with the expected vaccine rollout amid a reported vaccine hesitancy.
Now, further in the vaccine rollout, she noted there is not just hesitancy about the COVID-19 vaccine, "but downright resistance."
Looking at how to break through that and change behaviors, she said, often means tapping into belief systems and asking: "What does our faith call us to do? How do we care for others?"
The Mercy sister at the helm of an organization with more than 2,200 Catholic hospitals, nursing homes, long-term care facilities, systems, sponsors and related organizations in the United States, was part of a roundtable discussion on this very topic March 31 with faith leaders and Vice President Kamala Harris.
"Everyone is talking about this, not just Catholics, but this is our opportunity to rise to the occasion," she said.

Talking Points: Pep's instant Munich return
Mon 18 Jul 2016, 3:28 PM
SQUAD GOALS: Pep making instant return to Allianz Arena
City's first pre-season assignment is within touching distance…
Pep Guardiola's side kick off their 2016/17 preparations with an intriguing friendly against Bayern Munich and there are plenty of sources of intrigue.
Club journalist @markbooth_mcfc picks out but five of them…
1 Instant Return
Following three seasons at the helm at Bayern, Pep Guardiola will find himself in the unusual position of preparing a team in the away dressing room at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday night.
It's an instant return for the man who won three Bundesliga titles in three years as he faces off against a team he knows inside out.
Carlo Ancelotti will be the man who will be occupying Pep's old seat in the home dugout after taking the reins in the summer following a year out of the game.
While the game won't have the same intensity an in-season UEFA Champions League meeting between the sides would have, both managers will be eager to see a positive performance and to learn as much as they can about their new squads.
2 City's Got Talent
With the Copa America and Euro 2016-contesting players still to return, this is a huge opportunity for City's brightest young talents to catch Guardiola's eye and make inroads into the first-team squad.
The likes of Tosin Adarabioyo, Angelino, Brandon Barker, Sinan Bytyqi, Bersant Celina, Aleix Garcia, Manu Garcia, Angus Gunn, James Horsfield, Cameron Humphreys and Pablo Maffeo all have experience of being around the senior setup but the combination of pre-season, absentees and a new manager gives all of them a chance to accelerate their progress, starting in Munich.
It's a clean slate for everyone and it'll be fascinating to see which youngsters step up to the plate.
Whether it's a UEFA Champions League group stage showdown or an exhibition match, when City meet Bayern Munich, there tends to be fireworks.
The teams have met six times competitively and there have been three wins apiece with 19 goals across those clashes – an average of 3.1 per game.
Add in the Audi Cup final in 2013, when Pep had just assumed control at Bayern, and you sense we could be in for another friendly classic on Wednesday night.
4Experimentation
Exhibition matches are an opportunity for managers to experiment with players and tactical systems before the real business begins, so whatever happens on Wednesday, it's probably best to try not to draw too many conclusions on the way City will play in 2016/17 from this first piece of public evidence.
We say "try" because it'll be impossible not to try to read a little into Pep's thoughts on his overall vision for City when the whistle sounds at the Allianz Arena and of course that's all part of the fun.
Will he spring a surprise or two in terms of players' positions or will he keep his cards close to his chest for this first public outing? We shall see…
5Globe Trotters
Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Borussia Dortmund and Arsenal – these are the four teams that stand between City and the big Premier League kick-off against Sunderland in August.
It's a mouthwatering line-up for the Blues as they travel 13,000 miles from Manchester to Munich to Beijing to Shenzhen back to Manchester and then onto Gothenburg.
With the UEFA Champions League play-off round to come, it's an important few weeks for a globe-trotting City side looking to get up to speed for the challenges ahead.
You won't miss a kick here on ManCity.com as we kick off our coverage of #cityontour on Wednesday morning.

Sam Cane is Ready for New Zealand's Top Rugby Job
Like former All Blacks captain Richie McCaw, who learned his craft on the pastoral planes of the Mackenzie Country, the freshly appointed Sam Cane's rural background in Reporoa, Waikato has become a fundamental part of his present day, Leni Ma'ia'i reports for The Guardian.
He is quick to credit his farming upbringing for fostering the work ethic and readiness to "walk the talk" that he has brought from his days as a prodigious 20-year-old talent pulling on the black jersey in 2012, to one the most coveted positions in New Zealand leadership, Ma'ia'i writes.
To be the captain of the All Blacks is to be the face of the nation's most popular sport.
"There's pressure on any All Black because it's such an important game in the eyes of New Zealanders, but there's additional pressure on the captain to lead the team to victory," says Greg Cooper, a former All Black player who now coaches in Japan.
With eight years, 68 Tests and two World Cups under his belt, Cane, 28, knows all of this. So does it make him scared at all? "Nah, not really to be honest. I'm excited to get in and play some rugby," he says.

TaxSaleSupport.com is a tax sale training website that is owned and operated by Tax Sale Support LLC. The website is used for membership, training, and downloading tax sale lists. Tax Sale Support LLC training programs were founded by Stephen Swenson and Shade Ferre in 2007. If you're new to the program, a brief history about the company is very helpful.
Steve and Shade are business partners with a long history together. The two have been best friends since First Grade, and grew up together in Cedar Hills, Utah throughout the 1980's and 1990's. In 1999, Stephen was introduced to tax liens and tax deeds for the first time. Naturally, he got Shade interested too. By 2003, the two were attending tax sales and purchasing investments, but more importantly, they were learning.
It was 2005 when Steve and Shade first had the idea of creating a tax sale training program. They set out to create the best training program available. Their unique perspective, and ability to simplify complicated property tax laws helped them achieve that goal. In 2007, Steve and Shade copyrighted their program and cofounded their business together.
For the next decade they provided their tax sale training exclusively through seminar companies. During this time, Steve and Shade trained tens of thousands of people. Unfortunately, they came to realize that their seminar partners were far more interested in profits than the success of the students. The seminar companies had a tendancy to continually increase the price of the program for the student, while decreasing what they were willing to pay for it. The high cost of the training was always a concern for Steve and Shade. Neither of them grew up wealthy. They couldn't watch people spend their only available funds on the training. In 2015, Steve and Shade walked away from the seminar industry. They were determined to find a better way to provide training and lists.
In 2016, Steve and Shade began offering their training directly to the public. They created TaxSaleSupport.com to serve as a training hub, and tax sale list database for members. Today, Steve and Shade are doing what they love, teaching about tax lien and tax deed investing. Best of all, they've made the training and membership affordable for anyone.
At TaxSaleSupport.com, your success is our top priority. We hope you'll join us and become a member!

Apes in the zoo of Barcelona
The approximately 13-hectare Parque Zoológico de Barcelona houses about 5,500 animals, featuring over 400 species. The zoo area is part of the Parc de la Ciutadella; to the opening of the zoo in September 1892 the area was used prior for the Universal Exhibition of 1888.
The zoo has several components: in addition to the fauna of mammals, amphibians and reptiles, the exhibition areas also show the flora from the homes of the animals.
Highlights of the Zoo
Very nice park
Zoo of Barcelona is dedicated to species conservation
Tickets for printing directly after booking without prior time setting
Among the highlights, the following animal worlds are particularly noteworthy: the large primates and marine mammals, such as dolphins. Both species have been successfully bred here. Thus, the bottlenose dolphins gave birth to their latest offspring on 13 October. Previously zoos caught dolphins in the wild to train them for the show. This has earned the dolphinariums a dubious reputation. Today only breeded dolphins are trained for the shows.

The Areas at Barcelona Zoo
Komodos
This area has recently been completely refurbished and redesigned. There are five species from the Asia-Pacific region here: the largest living lizards, the Kommodo Dragon, Muntjac deer and several bird species.
Reptile House
This area houses poison dart frogs, iguanas, large caimans, dwarf crocodiles, various giant snakes, and other snakes.
Aviary
This area was renovated in 2002, creating different ecosystems, such as those found in American, Asian and African jungles. Rare birds are kept and bred here.
The farm houses the least spectacular of domestic farm animals: pigs, goats, sheep, rabbits, hamsters and a breed of Catalan donkeys that was nearly threatened by extinction. For children, the farm is one of the most beautiful places in the zoo. Here, animals can be petted and pony riding is possible.
Titi Monkey House
This house is the most visited house in the zoo. It houses small Titi monkeys, small primates from South America.
Gorilla House
This home of man's closest relatives houses a permanent exhibition on the life and research of primates. A large part is devoted to "Floquet de Neu", the albino gorilla for whom Barcelona Zoo was famous for many years.
Barcelona Zoo has always enjoyed spectacular breeding success with gorillas.
Gallery of the Small Primates
Here you can see the world of small primates, such as the Brazza monkeys.
The Palmeral is located at the entrance of the zoo. Here in thirteen large aviaries live white cockatoos, Triton cockatoos, macaws, and several other species of parrots.
Aquarama
Spectacular views of the underwater world of dolphins.
Floquet de Neu - the only known albino gorilla
One symbol of the zoo that is still well-known today is the world's only known albino gorilla "Floquet de Neu" (Snow Maiden), who delighted enthusiastic visitors to the zoo from 1966 until his death in 2003.
In 1966 "Snowflake" was brought to Barcelona from Central Africa at the age of about 2 years. The baby gorilla was bought by zoologist Jordi Sabater Pi from a farmer who had killed his mother. As a result of his brightly coloured coat the gorilla would have been easy prey for predators.
In the first months the small primate was raised in the home of the zoo veterinarian. Floquet fathered 22 offsprings - an animal record. The Barcelona Zoo wanted to have another white gorilla. But all descendants, even the grandchildren were pitch black.
In 2003 "Copito de Nieve" the Castilian version of Floquet de Neu, passed away as a result of skin cancer aged 39 years. When his illness became known, the queue in front of his enclosure of those who wanted to see him again was several hundred metres long.

The window sticker on a car is a vital tool for gaining valuable information about the vehicle that you are looking at. Assuming that you are buying a car, it is even more important in today's economy, to go into a dealership with some knowledge and understanding of what you are looking at, to ensure that you negotiate the best deal for you.
A salesperson may claim to be looking out for your best interests and getting you the best deal that he possibly can but, to be honest, how can he or she know what is in your best interests? That person does not know you, is not a part of your life and has no idea on earth what you need.
The window sticker is a good place to start to determine if the vehicle is a good fit for your needs. You have to assume that it contains fairly important information since most state's laws require that every new car has to have one on the window.
The window sticker contains obvious information like the MSRP which is the manufacturer's suggested retail price and the fuel economy ratings of the car. It also contains the engine and transmissions specifications, the standard and optional equipment, warranty details and the trim levels.
It shows the price break downs on the optional equipment and any applicable discounts. The window sticker should always have a vehicle identification number that should be compared to the window plate to be sure it is the right information for the right car.


It's tax time! We appreciate your business and look forward to preparing your tax return.
As we do every year, we would like to outline several things that will make your filing as efficient as possible for both you and our firm. As such, we have enclosed several forms and schedules for your review.
Please remember that we are not necessarily intending you to complete each document. These forms and schedules are only intended to provide a comprehensive list and overview of what may be included in your tax return. Please disregard what you feel may not be relevant to your personal tax situation.
We appreciate the opportunity to work with you and advise you on income tax matters, including the preparation of your tax return. Legislation allows the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") to impose penalties upon you as the taxpayer, and upon us as a tax return preparer, for failure to observe due care in reporting on your income tax returns. In order to ensure an understanding of our mutual responsibilities, we ask all clients for whom we prepare tax returns to confirm our arrangements by signing the enclosed engagement letter and returning it with your tax information. Please ensure your spouse and children sign as well if we will be preparing their returns.
Please remember that Canadian taxpayers who hold specified foreign property with a cost amount of $100,000 in total at any time in the tax year must disclose this to CRA. Please ensure your review our Engagement Letter and complete the representation regarding your foreign asset holdings.
It's our responsibility to prepare your tax return accurately according to the law and the information that you have provided. It is your responsibility to provide us with all the information required to prepare complete and accurate returns. You should retain all the documents, receipts, cancelled cheques and other data that form the basis of your income and deductions as we will not be retaining them. These may be necessary to prove the accuracy and completeness of the return to the CRA. You have the final responsibility for the income tax return and, therefore, you need to review it carefully and notify us of any issues needing to be addressed.
Your 2016 tax return (other than for self-employed) must be filed by May 1, 2017 as April 30, 2017 is a Sunday. However, you must have your 2016 tax information to our office by April 3, 2017 to ensure it is filed on time. We are required to file your 2016 personal return electronically.
Self-employed individuals have until June 15, 2017 to file their tax returns; however, the CRA will impose interest on any unpaid tax from May 1, 2017. Therefore, we recommend you have your return prepared before May 1, 2017 so that any liability can be paid as required in order to minimize interest charges.
Please review your 2016 tax return to determine the sources of income and expenses that you reported. This will be a good indication of what information you should be accumulating for your 2016 tax return. Also, consider any new sources of income or deductions you had in 2016.
We have included a Personal Tax Organizer to help jog your memory. We have also included a Self-Employed Business Activity Checklist, Rental Activity Checklist, and Commission/Employment Expenses Checklist should you have any related income or expenses to declare.

We can accept your tax information electronically and if you would like to send your information to us online please contact us so we can arrange to do this through our secure portal.
Once we have completed your tax returns we will email you a T183-Authorization to E-file. We are required by CRA to have the form signed and on file before electronically filing your return. Please ensure you indicate your confidential e-mail address on the attached personal tax return checklist. We will e-mail these forms to you unless you indicate otherwise. Please review, sign, and return the form as soon as possible so we may electronically file your return.
If you have any concerns with the privacy and security of sending the T183 by email, please contact us so we can arrange paper delivery or arrange to do this through our secure portal.
In order for us to obtain information from the CRA we are required to have a T1013 Authorizing or Cancelling a Representative filed with the CRA. If we do not already have one on file for you, we will forward one to be signed and returned.
It is very important to make the required quarterly installments to minimize installment interest and/or penalties. If you are required to remit quarterly income tax installments, your first payment for the 2017 calendar year is due by March 16, 2017.
Payment for preparation of your personal tax return is payable upon receipt of your return.
You can make your payment by personal cheque, cash, debit (in office only), Visa or MasterCard.
Tax returns will not be E-filed or released until payment is received in full.
If you have any questions regarding the filing of your personal income tax return, please do not hesitate to contact us.

of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Convention scheduled to hold on the 9th of December, 2017, High Chief Raymond Dokpesi earlier today paid a courtesy visit to Sen. (Dr) Joy Emodi; former special Adviser to the President On National Assembly matters at her Abuja office.
During the visit, High Chief Dokpesi informed the former Senator on the need for the PDP to elect a National Chairman that is capable of reforming the Party and a man that is committed to reclaiming power back to the people in 2019 and beyond.
High Chief Dokpesi noted that he has to come to seek the former Senator's support which will in turn assist his campaign team in passing and spreading out the message of "hope" across the Country.
Chief Dokpesi stressed further that "there is nothing that is impossible to God, we will ensure a level playing ground and remove impunity from the activities of the party and recruit younger generations, capable of moving the party to a higher and enviable level", he said.
Responding, Senator Joy Emodi commended High Chief Dokpesi and his campaign team for leaving no stone unturn by going round to seek the support, endorsement and prayers of party stakeholders and leaders across the Country.
Emodi described High Chief Dokpesi as a true politician who has distinguished himself from those waiting to get endorsements by political god-fathers.
I must also "thank you for recognizing the women folks in your campaign and consultation, because women and youths play key and vital roles in electioneering processes", she noted.
She urged the National Working Committee (NWC) under the able leadership of Sen. Ahmed Markafi to create room for and ensure a free, fair and credible election where any candidate that posses character, integrity coupled with fearlessness and doggedness will be emerged.
She also condemned all forms of manipulation by godfathers. "We all need to have a sober reflection of what happened in the past, so that we can have someone that will offer something to the party rather than exploiting the party.
She concluded by saying that High Chief Dokpesi is a man who has all the qualities, with sincerity to lead the party to greater heights.


I knew her poetry but not this particular one it is stunningly beautiful and ends in revelation.
I have been stunned lately by how many Advent poems she wrote. And am enjoying posting them. I'm glad that you like them. Thank you for your comment.

Headlines » Sarauw: 'It Was Highly Improper for the Governor to Write Such a Letter Supporting WAPA Rate Increases'
Sarauw: 'It Was Highly Improper for the Governor to Write Such a Letter Supporting WAPA Rate Increases'
By Mint Team on November 20, 2019
St. Thomas 𑁋 Governor Bryan shared a two-page memorandum on October 24th filed with the Virgin Islands Public Service Commission (PSC) in support of increasing the base rate for the Virgin Islands Water and Power Authority (WAPA). Government House shared the correspondence with the PSC just one month after Congresswoman Stacey Plaskett publicly urged Governor Bryan and Senate President Novelle Francis Jr. to consider declaring a state of emergency in light of ongoing issues plaguing WAPA.
The memo, obtained by the Virgin Islands Consortium offers special insight into Governor Bryan's strategy to gain the support of the PSC as the base rate increase continues to be unpopular among residents and senators who grilled the authority in October. Governor Bryan's memorandum to the PSC was not publicly shared with members of the press as ratepayers continued to protest WAPA and the proposed rate hike.
"The Public Services Commission should be void of any political influence," Senator Sarauw said. "They are to act on behalf of the people and not with special or political interests." Government House has said that the "Governor was simply placing his position on the record with the PSC."
Senator Sarauw made two points on Wednesday regarding the Governor's memo to the PSC:
– Noting that the PSC is an independent entity that exists to protect the interests of consumers in the territory, Sarauw said it was "Improper for the Governor to request that [hearing examiner, Kye Walker, Esq] put in her findings of fact and conclusions of law that the Government supports the rate hike. She is supposed to be the independent hearing officer."
– Sarauw also accused the administration of attempting to inject politics into the commission's record. Bryan's correspondence to the PSC opens with the statement, "While we have a strong desire to suppress any escalation of the electric rates for obvious political and economic reasons, we also understand that starving VIWAPA of the cash resources it requires to conduct basic operations is not a prudent solution."
The memo continues, "The Government's support of the base rate increase is conditioned on the current opportunity to effectuate the increase with minimal impact to the ratepayers."
"The fiscal challenges of the authority have been made clear and transparent to the public," the memo reads. Other elected officials have publicly stated that there are issues with top-level management at WAPA. Near the end of that 11-hour Senate oversight hearing, Sen. Donna Frett-Gregory said, "we are leaving here with a lot of unanswered questions."
Frett-Gregory in her testimony at the authority's investigative hearing in October expressed frustration in getting clear answers from officials on company finances and general operations.
"The Governor's memo was submitted to the Public Services Commission during their public comment period in October," Government House director of communications, Richard Motta Jr. said. "The Governor was simply placing his position on record with the PSC, as they sought input from the public."
Government House has stated that Bryan's memo was submitted during the public comment period, however, its existence was not included in any public releases made to the press. The memo became known after the Consortium's reporting this week nearly a month after it was initially filed with the PSC. Bryan's position regarding WAPA remains the same according to Motta.
"The Governor had expressed this same position in two press conferences in September and in numerous media interviews when he was asked about the Delegate's call for a State of Emergency," Motta added. Plaskett has doubled down on her support for a state of emergency meant to fix issues affecting WAPA and its operations in the territory.
In a phone call with the press that took place on November 7th, the Congresswoman noted that Bryan is contradicting the transition report created by individuals he hand-picked before his inauguration. The transition report painted a gloomy picture for WAPA and its finances, even going as far as mentioning that the authority was insolvent.
"The people of the Virgin Islands have a right to be livid regarding the posture the Executive branch has taken on WAPA," Sarauw said. "WAPA simply cannot ask for increases when they have made no changes internally to show they are willing to do things differently. There are still exorbitant rents, exorbitant credit card usage, bills are still being estimated and customers continue to overpay based on these wrong estimates."
"As a government, we don't have the luxury of second-guessing or ignoring the decisions made by our predecessors. Government is a continuum and we must live with the decisions made by prior leaders and own up to those obligations. How we learn from the decisions of the past and move towards future progress for our community is what matters most," the memo ends.
The PSC will hold a public hearing to consider the base rate increase for WAPA on December 11th.

How Businesses Are Using Twitter in 2020 Successfully
Many of the Digital Marketing articles I've read recently, especially entering into the new decade that discussed social media trends had experts agreeing that Twitter would be a popular network for businesses to focus on in the new year. Many are planning to spend more time, energy and money on building their business on Twitter.
It's no secret that Twitter is my favourite platform. I get the most engagement and results from Twitter hands down. Through the use of Twitter Chats I have been able to grow my network of connections among other experts in the Digital Marketing industry. And connecting with the #WritingCommunity has really helped me with ideas for writing, just as the #BloggersTribe has been instrumental on providing me with support for my blogs.
Twitter boasts 330 million monthly active users (as of2019 Q1). Of these, more than 40 percent, or more specifically, 134 million, use the service on a daily basis (Twitter, 2019)
Twitter is well known for being an incredible source for NEWS and I go there to get up to date current updates on both World News and local news.
I've asked some fellow Twitter users to share with me how they are using Twitter in 2020 for ongoing success. Below are their stories.
You will not that there is a pretty common thread - to be successful on Twitter it means being human, being engaging, and interacting with your audience in an authentic way. THANK YOU to the collaborators. It is always a pleasure to interact and support others online.
Mike from OneRedCat Media
I was recently asked to speak on behalf of NSBI about the power of social media when it comes to selling and that opportunity came absolutely from the idea that I use my business twitter account to tell people real things about my real life. I also share pertinent professional info but there are a million and one options for people to find someone to build them a website or teach them how to use the internet. I want people to understand that I'm a REAL person who both succeeds and fails like a real person does and I try to make sure that that comes through.
I also like to ask a lot more questions than many others in my field. I think that people get too much information and don't have enough conversation and engagement and so I try my best to ask REAL questions about THEM, rather than just saying "ok everybody what's the best social media tool that you use" which I just don't find seems like a REAL conversation. I focus on real conversations while I really think it's pretty clear in many online conversations that the person starting the conversations is not looking to engage, they're just "like hunting".
Finally, I really focus on making sure that I'm not perpetuating an echo chamber. I follow and engage with people and accounts that I don't necessarily agree with all the time. I'm also absolutely willing to ask hard questions and support potentially contentious subjects. I absolutely teach my clients that if you're going to talk politics, religion, etc, on your accounts, you need to understand that there are consequences. I find that in general, I'm able to use my beliefs and questions to generate real conversation and all this keeps me top of mind for people so that when they're looking for someone they think of me first.
OneRedCat Media is a creative agency in Halifax, Nova Scotia focused on helping small and medium sized businesses find their place online. We help with content creation, curation, and distribution across multiple channels such as web, social, blogging, and podcasting. We help businesses establish where they should be, what they should do, and how they should do it.
Gail Robertson - GailNow
I "discovered" Twitter as a networking tool while working as a marketing manager and helping out at trade shows as a
brand ambassador. I soon realized that Twitter was an extension of "in person" networking for people you have yet to meet.
As a connector - and former journalist - Twitter is used in my GailNow business for research, outreach, connecting to a wide range of people and certainly to raise a brand profile for myself and my clients.
I speak on the topic of curiosity and connecting and the power of weak ties so Twitter is a real time study of how to connect to people, build a brand and then develop business leads.
I also use Twitter with clients for real time coverage which can then be used for posts on Facebook and LinkedIn.
(Sidenote: As a former journalist I can see even greater potential for more brands to use Twitter to tell stories, connect and "cover" events. I am working on this as a longer term strategy for GailNow and I know Twitter will be a foundational tool)
**BIO**
Gail Robertson has a degree in Journalism and a Masters in Curiosity!
She has utilized her transferable skills as a Journalist at the Toronto Star, Hamilton Spectator, St. Catharines Standard and the Windsor Star; a Bed and Breakfast owner; a fundraiser; a marketing manager and now owner of GailNow.
She is a brand ambassador, strategic marketing consultant and speaker.

Paul Walker - Paul Walker Photography
Pwalkerphotography uses Twitter to attract new followers and build relationships with potential customers. Paul only has 700 followers so have recently started using a new strategy that I picked up from a Twitter social media expert Julia Bramble http://bramblebuzz.co.uk.
I decide what message my tweet is designed to convey , eg. to encourage engagement, and then split that tweet into three parts and post separately along with associated photographs of my work to highlight the message.

A big thank you to Mike, Gail, and Paul for contributing to this article. I'd love to do more like this in the future.
As for my input on how I am planning on using Twitter in 2020, well I guess you will just have to follow me to find out!
