Meet the Natural Products Advocate
With a hair styling pedigree to beat the band, Peter Lamas is an internationally recognized beauty expert who now helms a brand of natural hair and beauty products sold at specialty boutiques, natural health stores and Duane Reade in New York City. Peter's career began at the renowned Vidal Sassoon salon in New York, where he worked under the tutelage of Paul Mitchell. From there he moved on to the celebrity-favored Kenneth Salon and ultimately to the Henri Bendel Salon, working again with Paul Mitchell. in the 70s, he branched out on his own and launched The Reapers salon, which eventually had three Manhattan locations. Peter's clients have included Grace Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor, Audrey Hepburn, Diana Ross and Jacqueline Kennedy, to name just a few, for whom he would design both hairstyle and makeup.
Today, Peter resides in Los Angeles, from where he runs Peter Lamas Products, which manufactures natural and 100% vegan hair-care, skin-care and body-care products.

More and more natural beauty products are entering the marketplace. Why is "natural" such an important category?
Consumers are more conscious about what they are putting in and on their bodies. Because of the heightened media coverage about the consequences of environmental pollution, harsh chemicals and unnecessary additives, today's consumer is more aware about how their surroundings can affect their health.
Which common beauty ingredients do you feel are most dangerous and what substitutions can be made?
Petrochemicals – such as propylene glycol – are found in a variety of beauty products. This ingredient is primarily added to products as a moisturizing agent.
Sorbitol – a plant-based ingredient – would be a great substitute for propylene glycol. Sorbitol performs just as well and is all-natural.
Parabens, which scientists have found to be carcinogenic, are typically used as preservatives in personal care products. Caprylyl glycol can be a natural and safer alternative.
You can still find traces of lead content in darker shades of some lipsticks. Many women inadvertently ingest lipstick when they lick their lips, which could cause lead to buildup in their systems. Lead is usually used to intensity the color of a lipstick, but there are quite a number of vegetable and natural dyes that provide intense color naturally.
Please tell us a bit about your book "Dying to Be Beautiful." How many other books have you written?
"Dying to be Beautiful" was the first book I wrote. At the time, there was limited information regarding the chemistry of personal care products. In knowing and understanding the hazardous ingredients contained in everyday personal products – from toothpaste to deodorant, shampoos and moisturizers – I felt the need to start informing the average consumer about what they were putting on their bodies. As we know now, the skin absorbs almost everything – it was critical for the public to know the truth.
In addition to "Dying to be Beautiful," I have written three other books: "Beauty Basics," "The Truth About Sun Exposure" and "Ultimate Anti-Aging Secrets."
What lead you to develop your product lines?
Throughout my career I searched for products that were not only healthy and natural, but most importantly performed to a professional standard. In my search I could not find natural products that worked. I recognized the need to create products that were truly natural and organic but still performed to the highest standards.
In my personal life, I have encountered firsthand the negative effects that harsh chemicals can have. For example, a great friend and long time client of mine, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma – which was reported to have been triggered by her hair dye.
These reasons and many more inspired me to develop my own line of natural and organic hair and skin care products.
Which products are available at Duane Reade and why did you select them?
The entire Chinese Herbs Regenerating System and the Naturals Hair Care Collection are available at Duane Reade Drugstores.
Duane Reade's interest to go "masstige" – prestige for the masses – gave us the opportunity to reach a broader audience. A large chain like Duane Reade allows us to get our products into the hands of people who may not have been familiar with our brand.
You've had an extensive and successful career as a salon owner and makeup artist. What looks will be on-trend for 2011?
The trend for 2011 seems to be short to medium-length hair styles. I've seen the Pixie Cut make appearances on a number of runways and magazines. The Shag and soft curls on short-medium hair lengths are also making a comeback in 2011.

SIR ALEX FERGUSON IN SUPPORT OF SANCHO'S UNITED MOVE
July 4, 2021 index
According to reports, former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has given his approval for the club to sign Borussia Dortmund forward Jadon Sancho this summer. The Red Devils have been trying to sign the England international star for the last two years but they have not been able to reach an agreement with the German club for his signing and it has raised questions about whether they are truly serious about completing the transfer.
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E1Wy8OBWYAMxcPN.jpg
United's current manager Olé Gunnar Solksjær has made it clear that Sancho is his priority signing and would love the club's board to complete the deal as soon as possible. Dortmund have also accelerated their attempts to make sure that the deal goes ahead after they particularly reduced their asking price from the £120 million they were demanding two summer transfer windows ago to the £95 million they are demanding currently.
EVRA SAYS SOLKSJÆR HAS SOME SIR FERGUSON TRAITS
May 25, 2021 index
Premier League giants Manchester United are currently experiencing a huge upturn in form since the start of last Eason when compared to their previous campaigns, and it is largely due to the work done by current manager Olé Gunnar Solksjær. They are now experiencing some good fortunes under the Norwegian manager even though he struggled after some months into the United job despite a very bright start to his United managerial career.
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dvz8njqWwAAb-bS.jpg
Some stats have proven to show that they are now a very improved side and are enjoying a fine run of form this season. I'm this current campaign, the Red Devils have already scored more goals than they did at this stage last season and they have also gathered more points as well. Not only that, but they have also been playing some beautiful attacking football and their attackers have continued to provide the goods in front of goal as well.
ENGLAND ACE WANTS NEW DEAL AT MANCHESTER UNITED
April 18, 2019 index
Manchester United have had a positive last few days with the confirmation of Ole Gunnar Solksjaer as the permanent manager of the club. The Manchester United Legend has been able to revamp the club since his appointment in November losing just one game in the Premier League since he took over.
Several Manchester United players were understood to be delighted with the decision to hand the former Sir Alex Ferguson protégé the reins at the club. Solksjaer arrival could also see a number of key players committed to new contracts at Old Trafford.
MANCHESTER UNITED RECENT RUN BASED ON FERGUSON ETHICS
February 7, 2019 index
Manchester United season has been one of two tales, with the squad which seemed incapable of winning games before November looking rejuvenated. The Arrival of Ole Gunnar Solksjaer has played largely to this but one major key has been the return of the team to the Manchester United way.
This style of football was cultivated during Sir Alex Ferguson tenure at United and lasted 26 years filed with all trophies imaginable. However United made mistakes post-Ferguson, firstly appointing David Moyes who looked below par.

E-Bikes and E-Scooters Will Likely be Regulated
By Zack Fink New York City
PUBLISHED 2:37 PM ET Aug. 03, 2019 PUBLISHED August 3, 2019 @2:37 PM
On Friday, one of several companies hoping to capitalize on legal e-bikes and scooters held a demonstration near Madison Square Park in Manhattan.
"Oh! Here it goes, wooo!"
Docking stations like these would prevent e-scooters from cluttering up sidewalks, much like there are docking stations for Citibikes.
"These docking systems enable you to have the infrastructure in place to see micro-mobility come to New York without destroying the integrity of the sidewalk," said Andrew Fox of Charged.
But while the legislature passed a bill at the end of the Albany session in June, Governor Cuomo has yet to sign it, citing questions about safety.
"Yeah that's a bill that I think is going to need more review and discussion. I have heard a number of concerns from safety advocates who don't believe you should allow e-bikes and e-scooters on sidewalks with pedestrians. That they think people should have to wear a helmet," said Governor Cuomo.
Even if the Governor signs the bill, much work would have to be done locally to integrate e-bikes and scooters into City life. The City Council plans to hold hearings to help set up a regulated program.
"I am ready to wait for Governor Cuomo to sign this bill, and as soon as that happens as Chairman of the Transportation Committee I will be holding hearings. And I hope again that we can make them legal. If we take care of the safety including deciding the speed limit and where they will be allowed," said Ydanis Rodriguez.
But e-bikes and e-scooters are being used on City streets and sidewalks already. Although not legally. They are rarely ticketed, however.
The Albany law carves out Manhattan, giving the Mayor and City Council broad discretion on how to legalize them in that borough. Supporters of the bill believe Cuomo is likely to sign it, but with some adjustments. The Governor could call for what is known as a chapter amendment, which would add some of those safety features. The earliest hat amendment could be passed would be January when the legislature is back in session.


This week airport officials in Mexico announced plans for a new terminal at Cancun International Airport. Construction on the new Terminal 5 is set to begin at the end of 2018 or start of 2019. The move follows the recent opening of Terminal 4, which expanded the airport's capacity by 9 million passengers, to a total of 25 million.
In technology news, this week Cyprus-based Cobalt Air signed a new partnership with Amadeus that will allow travel agents to book the airline's services and fares through Amadeus' distribution channels.

Q: How to test a mediation model in panel data? I have a research design with a mediation effect between 3 variables over a period of 5 years (panel data). And I would appreciate it if you can provide advice for analysis.
the independent variable = CEO
which include the eduation(level of education: PHD, MSC, etc), workexperience info (work exp in years & functions),  & demographic details ( gender, age)
Dependent variable = FIRM performance (market value, sales, net income)
Mediation variable = diversity of partners (total amount of partners a company has, in which industry'multiple' and which function'multiple').
Panel Data
Have collected all data over a 5-year period. (changes in all 3 variables)
I have used 0,1 to for CEO work experience, function and industry
I have used 0,1 for partners as well, both for the industries and functions.
After consulting with some people I was suggested to use STATA to analyse the paneldata & relationships over the 5 year period.
Can you please provide suggestions for the analysis.
Thank you very much.
C.A.

The LDA+U method is a physically motivated approach that attempts to incorporate the effects of important orbital-specific local Coulomb interactions in strongly correlated electron systems while retaining the simplicity of local density approximation (LDA) calculations for real materials. In this talk, we discuss several applications of this method within the ab initio pseudopotential planewave framework. For transition metal oxides, the appropriate inclusion of the effects of onsite Coulomb U significantly alters their electronic structure leading to better agreement with experiment for quantities such as the nature of the electronic state, structural parameters, magnetic moments, phonon frequencies, etc. We have also studied the effects of doping on the electronic, magnetic, and structural properties of NaxCoO2. Undoped CoO2 is a metal with a high density of states at the Fermi level within LSDA, but a charge transfer insulator within LSDA+U. It is found that, due to a strong interaction between the doped electrons and the other Co d electrons, the calculated electronic structure is sensitively depended on the doping level. Finally, we discuss the use of LDA+U results as a starting mean-field solution for calculation of the electron self energy and quasiparticle excitations within the GW approximation.

Cold showers and lack of hot water are a building manager's nightmares! Unbalanced systems also happen in domestic hot water recirc and lead to loud complaints from tenants.
Since 1960 Griswold Controls has made automatic flow limiting (automatic balancing) valves for the HVAC industry. An automatic flow limiting valve maintains a constant flow in spite of pressure changes in the system, so the equipment in each zone has the flow it needs at all times. In comparison, when a system is unbalanced you have some equipment in the building that has excessive flows due to high pressure differentials and some equipment that has inadequate flows due to lower pressure differentials. High flows can lead to excessive heating/cooling, high velocity noise and erosion, wasted pump energy, and dehumidification problems. Low flows can lead to inadequate heating/cooling and short circuiting of equipment. Typically an unbalanced system has the higher flows near the pumps and the lower flows are in the index circuit, the equipment farthest from the pump.
The same flow issues that exist in an unbalanced HVAC system also exist in an unbalanced domestic hot water recirc. system but now you have the added issue of users having inadequate hot water for their shower, faucet, or washer and that can lead to much more angry complaints! So balancing a domestic hot water recirc. system is as important as balancing a HVAC system. Often these systems are balanced with ball valves or manual balance valves, both requiring balancing labor and in the end neither maintains balance when the system has pressure changes. Unlike HVAC systems, these are open systems and as people open and close faucets and run washers it causes even more pressure changes than a HVAC system experiences which can cause even more flow changes. Another factor with an open system is water will take the path of least resistance so if a faucet is open close to the pump in an unbalanced system the faucet farthest from the pump will have less hot water available to it.
The same flow limiting cartridges used in our HVAC valves can be used in lead free valve housing to control the flow in domestic hot water systems. The burden of balancing is shifted from the contractor to the valve itself as it maintains flow, regardless of pressure changes, through the life of the valve. For years Griswold Controls representatives have been selling automatic flow limiting valves in high rise buildings like hotels, condos and dormitories. Recently a building manager was interviewed about the impact in their system of removing Griswold Controls automatic flow limiting cartridges for cleaning and they said they had complaints about inadequate hot water from the day the parts were removed for cleaning. Once they were replaced the complaints stopped. So adding automatic valves can guarantee the hot water is distributed to each unit and remains balanced regardless of pressure changes in the system. Typical domestic hot water recirc systems use flow limiting valves set at 0.55 gpm since .55 gpm is adequate for a faucet or shower but the flow can be different for larger zones. And since the valve is pre-set for the flow no human balancing is required. This is less flow than is typically specified for a manual system since they have to pump more flow to make sure that there is enough hot water at every location when system is unbalanced due to pressure changes. Designing for less flow means smaller pumps which saves initial install costs.
Because the laws have changed over the years we offer the certified lead free K Valve for these domestic water applications to meet the government's requirements. We also offer the lead free QuickDisc for manual balance applications and lead free Unimizer for actuated valve applications like hot water heaters.
All our lead free valves are certified to NSF 61G standards.

US PRESSWIRE
Houston residents will be able to get in on the 2012 bowl action this weekend when the Meineke Car Care Bowl takes center stage at Reliant Stadium. The Minnesota Golden Gophers will face the Texas Tech Red Raiders in a Big Ten-Big 12 clash on Friday night.
The Red Raiders finished 7-5 for the season, but just 4-5 in Big 12 play. The Golden Gophers were 6-6 overall and 2-6 in the conference, second to last in the Big Ten Legends Division. Their big win came early in the season when they knocked of Syracuse out of the Big East. Texas Tech's highlight this year was beating West Virginia and TCU, who were both ranked at the time, in back-to-back weeks.
But Houston won't have the only Texas bowl game this weekend. San Antonio will host the Valero Alamo Bowl on Sunday, where Texas will play Oregon State. The Longhorns' eight wins came on a pair of four-game win streaks, while Oregon State split its last six games after winning its first six.

Ben Ryder Howe: The TNB Self-Interview
By Ben Ryder Howe
Your wife, the daughter of Korean immigrants, decides to repay her mother's sacrifice by buying her a convenience store. Tell us about your first reaction to her idea.
Well, I looked forward to getting free snack food and earning dividends on the hefty profits Gab thought we could make. I even looked forward to working a shift now and then – I thought that would be kind of funny. The humor dissolved pretty quickly once we started looking at stores and putting together the numbers, at which point we realized this would change our lives. And that was before we opened.
At what stage of owning the deli did you begin to conceive of it as a memoir?
I didn't start off thinking that way at all, and didn't take many notes, until one day when I was feeling miserable and went to see a friend who owned a coffee shop in Manhattan, and he said, "Don't let this period be forgotten, write it down, because as miserable as it is, you're going to remember and cherish it the rest of your life." And he wasn't a writer, just someone who'd gone through the travails of starting a family business. So I started keeping notes, but even then it wasn't for another year that I seriously thought about writing about it. For one thing, I hadn't written much in the first-person before – I kind of frowned on it, to be honest; I was raised to use the pronoun "I" as little as possible, especially in writing – and had never taken much interest in New York as a subject. At some point, though, I realized I'd had sort of a classic New York experience, like the Griffin Dunne character in "After Hours" who's sitting in a café one night and ends up getting chased by a Mister Softee truck and turned into a sculpture. That idea, that a dull, everyday person can be transported at any moment to some utterly improbable place – is one of the essential myths of New York, isn't it? Anything can happen.
Tell us a little about working with the famous George Plimpton at The Paris Review. What did you learn from him? What do you miss most about him?
The first time I met George he was in his boxers and black kneesocks and he got mad at me for calling him "Mr. Plimpton" instead of "George." Then he walked out of the office and I didn't see him again for about three weeks. He was not a heavyhanded editor. He wanted people to do things on their own and exercise their own judgment. He was trusting. He had a light touch. This not only made him the ideal boss for a bunch of 25-year-olds but delightful company –- the most delightful company most of us who worked for him ever had. That's what I miss most about George –- just hanging around with him.
While you are working at the Review, the magazine is struggling, just like the deli. Did your experiences there help you with the deli, and vice versa?
Those were not the best years for either the deli or the review, but I'm not sure there was ever a time when either one wasn't struggling at least a bit. That's one of the lessons I hopefully learned, to recognize things for what they are. It's very New York to be petrified of stagnation and constantly pursue the cutting edge, but as Willy Loman the coffee salesman says in the book, "Why change if you've got a winner?" Indeed, why? Why not leave things alone? Of course, a WASP would say that: we hate change and want the world to go backward, or at least stand still. It's not always the appropriate attitude, but accepting the status quo – as in a corner store that does what it's always done, and does it reasonably well – shouldn't be something you're afraid of, either.
You ended up really liking working at the deli. What most surprised you?
There are, I hope, a lot of reversals to be seen in the book. For instance, early on I talk about a job I had as a teenager pumping gas, and I say that while I liked the work, who knows how I would have felt about serving strangers the rest of my life. Customer interaction was definitely something I struggled with when we opened the deli, but by the time we closed it was my favorite part of the job. This is something I've also noticed about my mother-in-law, who's spent half her life at cash registers: she really seems to enjoy it.
Overall, what was the best part of the experience?
Seeing through my mother-in-law's eyes. There's another moment early in the book where Kay wants us to put in what I see as a ridiculously low bid for the deli we want, and when I challenge her to explain why, she says the owner won't respect us if we don't come in low. Now, I have no idea whether that turned out to be true or not, but my mother-in-law is a smart businesswoman and it was moments like those that not only helped me to understand her better, but to see the world a little differently. The things I learned from Kay weren't qualities that tend to be associated with the literary world, where the job is basically to be discerning and smart. They were things like consistency, stamina, lack of self-pity and fearlessness. In a sense it was an attitude – how to treat people, how to handle pressure and conflict.
What do you miss most about owning your deli?
Having my dogmas shaken up. You know you're doing something worthwhile when things you felt totally secure in believing or never even questioned start coming under assault. And I miss Dwayne, our sandwich maker, who died in 2009. Half of Brooklyn misses Dwayne.
Now that you've been a shopkeeper, can you give us the inside scoop on New York's Korean delis?
They're struggling. The heyday of Korean delis is over. There's no official count, but talking to people in the business, you get the sense that New York has only about half the Korean delis it used to, and the rest will largely be gone in another ten years. The city is killing them with fines, the rents are beyond insane, and there's too much competition from Duane Reade and Subway. Koreans aren't the only ones getting out, incidentally – everyone is, or wants to be. When I talk to deli owners now, they say I should be glad our family sold our store when we did, because it's worse now than it was then – and back then people said it had never been so bad.
Now, New York being what it is, I don't expect the Korean deli to be seen as anything other than a blip in the city's ethnic history. Certainly they played a role in the overall change of the New York's livability over the last few decades. (I know an author who claims that by staying open twenty-four hours and being bright nighttime presences on what were then dark and scary streets, Korean delis played a critical early role in the turnaround.)
But as a New Yorker I do think it's worrisome. New York has always had an image as being open to newcomers – you know, the cliché about anyone being able to make it here if they're tough enough and they sacrifice. The deli is an iconic business because it's the kind of job anyone can do – you don't need any qualifications or experience. You don't even have to speak the local language. It's hard to imagine New York doing well if delis aren't viable, and I worry about what happens if New York stops being seen as a great place to come and get ahead. New Yorkers probably think that will never happen, but honestly, stranger things have happened in the city in the last few years.
How has your wife's family responded to you writing this story?
We were living together during much of the time it was being written, and often I'd come up to the dining room table from my desk in the basement and ask, "Does anyone remember how much a 'Cash-in-a-Flash' ticket cost?" or something like that. So it was something we were always talking about, and Kay's response when I told her I wanted to make her a focus of the book – no surprise to anyone who knows her – was fearless and enthusiastic. (I think she said, "Is there going to be a movie? If so, I want to be in at least three scenes.") For all of us I think there wasn't a question after the deli closed that there was a story to be told. It was one of those experiences where you look back and say, I'm not the same person I was when this started. We kind of digested those feelings together.
How would you react if your children gave you a deli when they were older?
I'd disown them. No, seriously, that's a great question. I'd never thought of that. You know, I used to think that the key to a happy life was having just the possibility of things changing in unexpected ways, that tomorrow you might find yourself doing something you'd never thought of. A deli forecloses on that – you have to reconcile yourself to doing the exact same thing in exactly the same place till possibly the end of your life (though it has its own set of pleasures, which I didn't quite appreciate before). I like the idea that my children would give me a store, because it combines those two things – an unexpected change with the sedentary pleasures of running a small business. I hope I'd have the guts to say yes.

One response to "Ben Ryder Howe: The TNB Self-Interview"
Black Dog says:
Really interesting, Ben. I've partially completed a book about my time working as a chemist at a paint factory- think "The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair as told through a solvent haze. Truth is so many times stranger than fiction. In other words- you couldn't make this shit up.

For many NJ residents with a criminal record, life just got a little bit better. Governor Chris Christie has officially signed off on a democrat-sponsored bill to make the expungement of criminal records easier, in large part by reducing the waiting periods and special drug related offenses.
Sponsors: This bill, known as A206, was sponsored by NJ Assemblyman Jerry Green, a democrat from Union County, and Assemblywoman L. Grace Spencer, also democrat from Essex County. Green discussed his enthusiasm for the bill, saying that "expungement offers an incentive against recidivism…giving people who currently have little chance of finding legal employment the opportunity to leave past mistakes behind them, find a job and be productive." He wishes to fix a system that he says "works against" individuals who have "served their time and want to change and do better." This type of criminal justice reform is in line with other similar policies recently enacted across the state.
Changes: Chief among the changes to old NJ expungement bills and laws include a reduced waiting period from ten years to five years for more serious convictions, and from five years to three years for disorderly persons charges. After this period under A206, the individual can apply for expungement. This date will begin counting from either the date of last conviction, fine payment, release from incarceration, or ending of parole or probation. Once all of these have been completed, the three year waiting period will begin.
Stipulation: The new expungement bill will go into effect in 90 days. Excluded from its' effects include any crimes that are normally barred from expungement, including most violent crimes. It is meant to help individuals, who have truly reformed and are not a threat to society, be able to pick up the pieces of their lives and move forward as productive citizens, according to supporters of the bill, which is now law.
Companion Bill: This expungement bill, A206, went along with another, also signed into NJ law in early January. That law, A1662, deals directly with individuals who have suffered from identity theft. In the case that a person had his or her identity stolen, and the thief then committed criminal activities with their identity, those crimes would be sealed from the record since they were not actually committed by the person in question. This is a common sense bill that declared it would not be necessary for the individual to wait for the expungement period to have the criminal activity removed from their record, since it was not actually their crime.

Many business people assume that non-profits have it easy, in one important sense: They do not need to make a profit.
Therefore, the assumption goes, non-profits are relieved of one of the most important responsibilities a business has: to generate returns for its shareholders. This frees them up to focus on whatever good deeds they are dedicated to, because they don't have to worry about results in as critical a way as for-profit businesses.
I have found this assumption to be untrue … by a long shot.
I have found, through advisory work with both for-profit and non-profit businesses, that those of us trying to make a buck can learn a ton from non-profits.
In a non-profit, by contrast, results are usually described in much more detailed, much more interesting ways. In this earlier newsletter, Who do we intend to be?, I described how non-profits are usually able to answer the question, "Who do we intend to be?" in a much richer way than for-profit businesses. Instead of saying "grow revenue," or "gain market share," or "generate a 10% profit increase," they describe the impacts they have on people's lives, or on the planet, in a way that paints a clear picture of what they are trying to accomplish.
As an example, Yastrow & Company is working with a non-profit summer camp, Camp Ramah in Wisconsin. When we asked the camp leadership, including the staff and lay leaders, to describe the camp's desired results, we heard about the impacts they want to have on young people's lives for decades to come. They talked about multi-generational camp families, where the parents had met at camp when they were kids and are now sending their children to camp. They talked about twenty-something alumni, now starting their families, who still spend time together and credit the camp for their enhanced sense of identity. Just imagine if a business were able to describe their results in such a rich way.
The implication: We have a chance to make a major impact on people's lives, and if we don't do it well, we will have squandered an opportunity to make a powerful impact on the world.
I changed a reservation on United Airlines last night and had to pay a $150 change fee. My loss was United's gain. There was no net benefit to the world, only a zero-sum process that included a transfer of resources from me to United.
In a non-profit, however, there is a constant alignment between what's good for the customer and what's good for the organization, because its entire mission is to do good for its customers.
Can you say that about your company and its customers?
We all love our customers, and we all seek to understand what the world looks like from their perspective, but non-profits usually develop a deep empathy for their customers that is unrivaled by for-profit companies.
I once helped a charitable organization in the Chicago area that serves a population of very poor elderly people. We interviewed both the elderly recipients of aid and people who worked for the organization, and it was touching to hear how well the people inside the organization understood, at a deep and emotional level, what their customers' lives were like. I couldn't help but imagine the benefit if some of my for-profit clients had that kind of empathy for their customers.
Many charitable organizations give support and funding to other organizations who, in turn, serve end-user populations. In the business world, we often look at channels of distribution as a cost center, stuck between us and our customers. I find that non-profits much more naturally see channels of distribution as true partners, each trying to reach a common goal.
When your work involves improving people's lives or improving the world, everyday work conversations often revolve around very significant issues. When conversations about serious diseases, starving children or funding innovative social entrepreneurial ventures are common, you tend to keep your mind focused on issues of major importance.
How many employees in your company are regularly talking about the greater impacts your company creates? What would it be like if they were?
So, next time you meet someone who works for a non-profit, engage that person in a conversation, and see if you can learn a thing or two about creating business results. I'll bet you can!
Steve – I think all your newsletters are great, and I get ideas and inspiration from each one; but this one was really exceptional. I especially loved your observations about "what's at stake?" and "true empathy for your customers." Bravo!
Hey Steve, what a great article. As a student who's new to the world of PR, it's wonderful to read content that gives me a better understanding of PR and its functions. I enjoyed the article so much that I wrote a response to it in my blog: http://bit.ly/AEyBwC.

Last Friday the Holy Spirit took me up into a life-changing experience of prayer intercession during the Paris attack by radical Islamic terrorists. He led me to see many things while calling me to declare His scriptures by His Spirit in His name.
Our God is an awesome God. His name is Jesus. I'm just beginning to gain a clue as to how powerful He is when we pray scripture out while resting under His Blood covering and leaning upon the guiding power of the Holy Spirit.
The Lord is absolutely ablaze with lovingkindness for humanity. He wants to blaze forth through our prayers, worship, words, and actions. Very encouraging. Satan is absolutely heartless toward humanity and wants to use humans to enslave and destroy humans. Very sobering.
We who claim Jesus must actually start walking closely with Him. We must stop cooperating with the evil one by careless distractions & worldly compromise. All other world religions are false and tools of Satan. True Christianity is wholehearted worship, walking, & witness with Jesus as Lord.
Jesus is calling all true believers to come up higher into constant victory in Him. Real victory over terrorism and evil is not coming from the White House, but from Heaven. True born-again believers are to be His priests and witnesses. A true priest stands before Jesus in prayer on behalf of the world. A true witness stands before the world in testimony on behalf of Jesus.
It is time for believers to come up so His Church will wake up so more of the lost will be raised up. Join us.

Grammys Shammies. A Meandering Editorial.
On February 8, 2015 By bradbirzerIn progressive rock music
God bless that Stu guy!
Having had a chance to listen to a stream (a review copy from the fine folks B/W/R PR) of the new Steven Wilson, I'm very glad to write that it's profound and good and true and wonderful. I wasn't so taken with the last album (the RAVEN one), though I thought the first two solo albums quite astounding. And, I pulled out my Chicago DVD show of Porcupine Tree. Sheesh, when Wilson wants to be, he's incredible. The last solo album I thought a poor mimicry of the work of that ever-wonderful genius, Andy Tillison.
This new album pays homage to late 1970s Rush, but it does so in a way that honors Rush. All to the good.
As the Grammy's are happening as I write this, I remember how utterly disappointed I was with Wilson a few years ago when he tweeted how sad he was not to have won a Grammy. I responded in my own tweet: "Dear Lord, you are so much better than that!" Or something akin to this.
I meant it.
A Grammy is an albatrossian weight, not a mark or a sign of anything other than bland, tapioca conformity on a corporate scale.
Not watching the Grammy's, I can happily report that I'm listening to the brand new, deluxe version of Galahad's EMPIRES NEVER LAST. Let me offer another "sheesh." What a great album, made even better through remixing and editing. Glorious.
Yesterday, my family and I devoured the new Neal Morse, THE GRAND EXPERIMENT. We are all rather smitten.
Today, I listened to all of Dave Kerzner's NEW WORLD (deluxe edition) as I made Sunday evening pizza. Again, I'm a rather happy fan.
I also read Bryan Morey's insightful review of Mike Kershaw's latest EP, DEPARTURE, featuring lots of FRACTAL MIRROR talent. This got me to thinking about Greg Spawton and his ability to form communities–not only around himself immediately in BBT, but also through the internet. Kershaw, Urbaniak, Kull. . . what a crazy bunch of proggers we all are. And, that Morey. He's a natural.
And, now, I patiently await the arrival of the new Glass Hammer.
I'm sorry–what awards show is going on tonight? Yeah, I've got much better things to listen to, thank you very much.

The Grammys are mostly by and for people who make music in order to be famous. It occasionally recognizes true musicians, who make good music and who might, from time to time, become famous for doing so.
The Grammys suck. I've never even heard of the dude who won best album. All I know is it should have been Flying Colors. And thanks for the kind words, Brad. I appreciate it!

Vipers Training Camp: Day 6
Defensive back Corey Moore at Friday's training camp practice.
HOUSTON -- If you hang around Vipers training camp, there's one word you're very likely to hear several times a day.
Chase.
Head coach Marc Trestman and defensive coordinator Jerry Glanville have made it clear they want the Vipers to be the best chasing team in football.
On Friday morning -- with only 30 days remaining until the Vipers kick off the season on Feb. 9 (@ New York, 2 p.m. ET, FOX) -- the chase was on. Players were running, hustling, and grinding all practice long.
"The biggest thing in playing defensive football is pursuit," linebackers coach Mike Archer said. "It's all 11 people taking the rights angles to the ball. You never know when you're going to be the one to make the tackle, you never know when you're the last one to prevent the touchdown."
Archer said that this approach is more mental than physical.
"It starts with an attitude," Archer said. "That has nothing to do with ability. That has to do with wanting to get to the football."
"Once you have all 11 guys buy into the mentality, it's like a one-man band," defensive back Corey Moore said. "It looks good, it sounds good."
"We're a good chasing team," offensive guard Tony Adams said. "High effort ... high motor ... because we always want to be there to pick up the ball or pick up a teammate."
"It's like a one-man band. It looks good, it sounds good."
Defensive Back Corey Moore on the team's emphasis on chasing the ball
Another thing you'd notice at Friday's practice -- this team has no dearth of options at quarterback.
Aaron Murray, Taylor Cornelius and Quinton Flowers turned in strong performances, with Murray and Cornelius connecting on several deep strikes. But, arguably, the highlight came from Flowers, who dropped back and dropped a dime 25 yards down the right side of the field, straight into the arms of wide receiver Daniel Williams.
After Williams spiked the ball, the players erupted in cheers up and down the sidelines.
"It's going great," Flowers said of his time with the Vipers so far. "Learning from Coach Trestman ... learning from Coach (Josh) Neiswander ... it's making me a better player."
Saturday, the team heads to the TDECU Stadium at the University of Houston for a joint practice with the Roughnecks. We will bring you full coverage.
Until then, here's a look at how defensive tackle Nikita Whitlock keeps his teammates on the ball.

Maseru – Nine men's teams and four women's basketball sides will go head-to-head at this year's Summer Slam Charity Tournament.
The championship, which will feature guest teams from South Africa and Swaziland, will take centre stage on Saturday and Sunday at Lehakoe Recreational Centre.
Lesotho Basketball Association (LBA) public relations officer Ratšolo Molupe said the annual tournament is meant to give back to the community.
He said it also intends to introduce basketball to young children so they gain interest in the sport.
So far 13 teams have confirmed their participation in the 2016 Summer Slam Charity Tournament with registration open until tomorrow.
"It's about giving back to the community, this started way back around 2004 and it's about giving support to disadvantaged children and orphans," Molupe told thepost on Tuesday.
"We want them to feel the Christmas fun like others; we want them to feel secure and loved. We also want them to know the game. We are introducing basketball to them so that they can grow up loving basketball," he said.
Molupe said six teams from outside the country including Swaziland's Mbabane Raptors from Swaziland are expected to grace the tournament.
Lesotho's contingent, meanwhile, will include national champions KTA All-Stars, Bokamoso, Lichocha Shooting Rifles and current National Basketball League leaders Bashana Baheso.
The winners in both the men's and women's competitions will walk away with trophies and medals all sponsored by Sprite.
Last weekend the LBA held its annual fun-walk in preparation for the Summer Slam Charity Tournament.
The fun-walk started at Setsoto Stadium and ended with a picnic in Marabeng.


Why: The Mayor and City Council began the process of reviewing the Atlanta Zoning Ordinance by performing a diagnostic of the existing zoning code provisions in combination with professional City staff and a consultant team. The diagnostic, performed over one year, resulted in the Atlanta Zoning Ordinance Assessment that made a series of recommendations for future changes to the Zoning Ordinance, including amendments to the regulations.
What: The Diagnostic categorized the recommendations into 1) those that could be completed in a relatively short period of time as "Quick Fixes," or "Medium Fixes;" and 2) those that would require a comprehensive overhaul of the current Zoning Ordinance and would likely require a period of two to four years to complete.
Click on the image to view our Zoning Reform Fact Sheet.
Phase I - Quick Fix proposed amendments were adopted and approved in May of 2018.
Phase II: The Medium Fix proposed amendments were adopted and approved in January of 2019.
Zoning Ordinance Rewrite: A Request for Proposals (RFP) - FC-10449 - was posted on December 14, 2018 to solicit bids/proposals on a complete overhaul of our Zoning Ordinance.
