How did pollsters get the 2016 US election so wrong?
Zahedur Rahman Arman | Published: November 29, 2016 20:57:38 | Updated: October 24, 2017 08:23:16
The results of the 2016 presidential election came as a surprise to everyone who had been following election polling. The day before the election, most pollsters and statistical models had pegged that Democratic party candidate, Hillary Clinton, was destined for victory, her chances of winning ranging from 70 per cent to as high as 99 per cent (Mercer, Deane, & Mcgeeney, 2016). They also pegged her the heavy favourite candidate to win a number of democratic states like Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin that were ultimately won by Trump, the Republican candidate. The Republican candidate's victory dealt a devastating blow to the credibility of the leading pollsters, including Princeton Election Consortium, Huffington Post, Daily KOS, CNN, Predict Wise, New York Times, and FiveThirtyEight. Of 67 national polls tracking a 4-way race since the start of October, only four gave Trump the lead, according to the RealClearPolitics. Of 61 national polls tracking a 2-way race during that period, six gave Trump the lead (Bomey, 2016). Thus, there was a growing expectation that Hillary was winning the election, but the result was totally different. As Larry Sabato, director of the University of Virginia's Center for Politics, said, "We were wrong. The entire punditry industry, the entire polling industry, the entire analyst industry - and I want to use this opportunity to take my fair share of the blame - we were wrong," (http://insider. foxnews.com/ 2016/11/09/how-did-polls-experts-get-2016-election-so-wrong).
The article will try to show how the media and pollsters got the election so wrong. There are several reasons behind the inaccurate data. These were: the methodological problems, non-response bias, undecided voters, the mentality and behaviours of Trump's supporters, and close polling margins.
METHODOLOGICAL PROBLEMS: Acquiring accurate random samples of voters to poll has been creating continuous problems since cell phones and online surveys came into wide use. Prior to the use of these tools in the survey, pollsters used landline telephones to find out reasonably random and representative samples. Pollsters could just pick random names from the phone books, call voters, and take interviews, which helped them to analyse voters' alignment. This method also ensured high response rates and helped to control non-response bias (when the answers of respondents differ from the potential answers of those who do not answer). The problem with using mobile phones as survey tools is that they are not usually publicly listed, making it difficult to find representative samples. Some online survey methods also suffer from bias and are generally considered of lower quality than other polls. As an example, L.A. Times/USC polls established panel of online voters could gain traction. Declining rates of voter response to phone polls and increased cell phone usage are making it increasingly difficult and costly to poll voters through traditional methods.
It is also true that with the rise of the Internet, researchers and pollsters can find more reliable and detailed information about the public. They can define the public's mind based on the information they have collected from the respondents. At the same time, there is also the possibility of losing reliable sampling data.
NON-RESPONSE BIAS: In these election polls, non-response bias is also a factor that occurs when some people do not respond to surveys. In this election, the less educated voters were a key demographic for Trump. Most of the pollsters did not reach these voters. It is possible that the frustration and anti-institutional feelings that drove the Trump campaign may also have aligned with an unwillingness to respond to polls (Mercer, Deane, & Mcgeeney, 2016). Thus, in most of the election polls, pollsters didn't predict a Trump victory in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
UNDECIDED VOTERS SWUNG BACK: In the election, a late surge of undecided voters secured Trump's victory over Clinton. According to HuffPost Pollster, Clinton was at 46 per cent in the Wisconsin polls, and won just less than 47 per cent of the vote. She was at 46 per cent in the Pennsylvania polls and won 47.6 per cent of the vote. In Michigan, she was at 47 per cent in the polls, and got 47 per cent on the election day (Shepard, 2016). On the other hand, Trump was at 40.8 per cent in the polls, and got 47.8 per cent of the vote. In Pennsylvania, he was 41 per cent in the polls, and got 48.79 per cent of vote. In Wisconsin, he was at 40 per cent in the polls, and got 47.87 per cent of votes on the election day.
From this data, it is clear that Clinton got votes that the pollsters expected. The Republican candidate, Trump got more votes than the pollsters expected. Thus, it is clear that undecided voters swung back to the Republican candidate.
TRUMP SUPPORTERS MAY THINK THAT IT'S A RIGGED POLL: In the election campaign, Trump was continuously saying that the election was rigged. Trump supporters thought that the polls were rigged as well. According to Timothy Johnson, professor and director of the Survey Research Laboratory, University of Illinois, said, "People who don't like the government often perceive the polls as being part of the government." As a result, some voters didn't participate in the election polls which is the most plausible explanation for the pollsters' miss.
SHY TRUMP SUPPORTERS: In general, Clinton supporters are more likely to say they're a Clinton supporter than Trump supporters are to say they're. As the University of South California Dornsife/Los Angeles Times pollhttp:/www.latimes.com/ politics/la-na-pol-usc-latimes-poll-20161108-story.html corroborated, "Women who said they backed Trump were particularly less likely to say they would be comfortable talking to a pollster about their vote" (http://theconversation.com/voters-embarrassment-and-fear-of-social-stigma-messed-with-pollsters-predictions-68640). As a result, pollsters got wrong messages about the 2016 presidential election.
NOT READY FOR FEMALE PRESIDENT: It may also be the case that America is not yet ready to accept a female president. Americans did not feel comfortable to the pollsters until they reached the voting booth. It's difficult for the pollsters to make a decision about such voters. There has never been a female presidential candidate from a major political party before. In general, people are reluctant to embrace change in the presidential election.
THE CLOSE MARGIN: Trump's victory was decisive by electoral college, but it wasn't a landslide. He picked up Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, shocking pundits. However, Donald Trump won three rustbelt states by only a combined total of 112,000 votes. Pollsters did not find such close margin in their election polls. They thought that victory was ensured for Hillary Clinton as these States were democratic.
There are several possible reasons such as methodological problems, non-response bias, undecided voters, shyness of Trump supporters, female candidacy, and close polling margins for misleading poll predictions. The next time around, researchers and pollsters need to consider these reasons to get accurate result. They may also need to try harder to account for human psychology to get accurate prediction in the presidential election.

This makes me very jealous, but I'm also happy for you, since it feels like this is autobiographical. This is the best I've read you, as far as speaking of your main love. This flows smoothly & authentically. And I'm not a fan of love poems. It's gotta feel complex like real love, as you do so well (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie LOVE: "His love for me is an elevant, minor irritations cease to be relevant"
too many wonderful lines, from first line "to lost count' so uplifting, this one.
astounding how many break ups are based on how one holds a fork ... or hums when absorbed ... there is no getting past getting past those things when "in love" but knowing and feeling safe with another human being is blissful and well worth the loss of all our little "points" ... a wise and flowing true love poem for V-Day ... have a happy one Lyn!
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm love the back and forth of who she was and who she is ... elevating the relevant things is a deepening indeed ... a deedeed ;) astounding how many break ups are based on how one holds a fork ... or hums when absorbed ... there is no getting past getting past those things when "in love" but knowing and feeling safe with another human being is blissful and well worth the loss of all our little "points" ... a wise and flowing true love poem for V-Day ... have a happy one Lyn! E.
' You .. smoothe my edges .. glow my cheeks .. steady my breath .. and tease out the crinkles .. in my smile.. ' Special love, that..
How true this is. All those minor irritations cease to be relevant. That surely is love for you. Your lines remind me as well of that old saying, if you go looking for love, you won't find it. It has a habit of finding you when you least expect it. I like your journey here Lyn.
I know twill take a lot of days, perhaps years for me to understand who's right for me to hug and take a vacation but I learned a little from your piece. ..
I suppose it's a true fact that if you go out looking for love you aint going to find it.
But on a normal day, that someone who irritates you turns out to be the one who changes your life.
Probably why love is blind.
So, he's the man. I suppose it's a true fact that if you go out looking for love you aint going to find it. But on a normal day, that someone who irritates you turns out to be the one who changes your life. Probably why love is blind.
It can only be the hope that we find this feeling of intimacy that considers our flaws and glitches irrelevant, that we continue through the myre of false starts, false hope and false love. Either that or a sadomasichistic sense of humour.
We are all these verses, looking for the perfect endline, to start living and stop simply being.
Aww thank you. My muse is very inspiring on the daily.


Looking for a quick, short-term way to lower your grocery budget? Maybe you work freelance and this is a lean month, or maybe you're dealing with an unexpected job loss or delayed paycheck. We've come up with a budget meal plan that covers all three meals for a week and will keep your bellies full—all for only $65!
This meal plan assumes a family of 4 with two adults and 2 children, and it doesn't not take into account any dietary considerations. Substituting in gluten-free or keto-friendly options will increase the weekly cost, but if you're really desperate, eating scrambled eggs with fruit or vegetables is one of the cheapest, allergy-friendly, most nutrient-dense meals you can choose!
As with all of the prices we list at Southern Savers, they are going to vary geographically and by store. In order to come up with this cheap meal plan, I tried to use a reasonable price based on our buy price list as well as the item search to see how cheaply we could get that particular item right now. In cases where an item did not appear on either of those lists, I used our local Walmart price.
Note: This is just a guide. If you hate oatmeal then grab cereal, we are trying to focus on good food options that are filling but cheap!
There are a few items that you'll need that you'll use all week–milk, butter, salad dressing, and bread. I'm also assuming you have pantry staples like mayonnaise, ketchup, spices, and other condiments on hand.
For the sausage egg bake, brown 1 lb of pork sausage on the stove. Meanwhile, whisk 12 eggs with salt and pepper. Spray a 9×13 pan with nonstick cooking spray and spread the sausage on the bottom of the pan. Pour the eggs over the sausage, then sprinkle 2 cups of cheese on top. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until set. Slice into squares and serve.
For the beans and rice, simply heat up the beans (drained or undrained, however you prefer) and cook a big batch of rice. Then mix them together and add salt, pepper, garlic powder, or other Mexican spices. If you already have salsa, cheese, or sour cream on hand, you can top it with those!
Lunch: Eat up all the leftovers from this week!
In order to make this as easy as possible, I've got three printables to go along with this meal plan.
See some of our other meal plans here.

Taxman Says No Change In Income Tax Forms, Only Utility Software Updated
July 17, 2019 - by sahaskrit
NEW DELHI: No change has been made in income-tax return (ITR) forms, only the utility software has been updated, the CBDT said on Tuesday, quashing reports circulating on social media about "large-scale changes" in the forms troubling taxpayers.
The policy-making body of the Income Tax Department issued a statement saying the updating process of these forms' utility software does not hamper the filing of returns, the deadline for which is July 31.
It also said that over 1.38 crore entities have already filed their income-tax returns till now.
"No change has been made in any of the ITR forms including ITR-2 and ITR-3 since the notification made on the April 1, the first day of the assessment year 2019-20, on April 1."
"There were reports in social media that the taxpayers were facing difficulties in filing returns of income in ITR-2 and ITR-3 due to large-scale changes in the ITR form on 11th July," the statement by the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) said.
It said the software for e-filing of ITR-2, meant for individuals and 'Hindu Undivided Families (HUFs)' not having income from profits and gains of business or profession, and ITR-3, for individuals and HUFs having income from profits and gains of business or profession, was released on May 2 and May 10 respectively.
"However, the software utility update is a dynamic process and is continuously taken up as per the feedback received from the users/filers to ease their experience in electronic filing of returns," it said.
This updation, it clarified, does not hamper filing of return as the taxpayers are allowed to file using the utility which is available at that point of time.
The CBDT also said that more than 85 lakh taxpayers have filed returns in ITR-1 till date by using the said utility, which had also undergone update later. "Therefore, the impression that the taxpayers are not able to file return due to changes in ITR form is also not correct as more than 1.38 crore taxpayers have already filed their returns by using the utility released till date," it said.
Even though the utility is being updated regularly to for ease of taxpayers, the returns filed by using the previous version of utility will continue to be valid, the statement said.
The CBDT also gave the rationale behind the updation of the utility software, using which the returns are filed. "It is pertinent to state that the updation in utility of ITR forms is based on feedback and mainly aimed at easing the compliance burden of the taxpayers by facilitating easier e-filing," it said.
For instance, this year the facility of pre-filling of return forms has been provided based on the information furnished in the tax deducted at source (TDS) statements. This facility has been updated in the utility subsequently and this would substantially reduce the efforts of taxpayers in filling of return forms, the CBDT said.
"It is reiterated that there are no changes in the notified ITR forms and only the utility has been updated to facilitate the taxpayers. Therefore, the assertion that numerous changes have been made in ITR-2 and ITR-3 on July, 11 does not give a correct picture," it said.

He held the post of BHU Emeritus professor in zoology at the Banaras Hindu University and was also the Chancellor, Nagaland University till his death.

Education
He completed his Bachelors in Science from Utkal University in the year 1949. After that he moved to Lucknow University from where he completed his MSc in Zoology in 1951. After a short tenure of doing research at Lucknow university followed by serving as a lecturer in Zoology at the Ravenshaw College, Cuttack, he went to the University of Illinois (Urbana), US for advanced studies. He has completed his PhD on Physiology under the famous scientist Prof. Clifford Ladd Prosser from University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, US in 1959 where he worked on the physiological and biochemical adaptation of goldfish to temperature variation and studied its effect on oxygen consumption under both normal and experimental conditions. He also studied oxygen consumption and oxidative phosphorylation of liver mitochondria of goldfish as a part of the same study.

Professional life
He started his early life as a lecturer in Zoology, Ravenshaw College, Cuttack. He then joined Utkal University in Feb. 1961 as a Reader in Zoology and continued teaching for a year. He joined the Department of Zoology at Banaras Hindu University and served as a reader (1962–69) and as a professor (1970–87). He was Head, Department of Zoology (1974–76 and 1980–82), Coordinator of the Center of Advanced Study, and Dean, Faculty of Science (1986) at Banaras Hindu University. Professor Kanungo was founder Director of Institute of Lifesciences, Bhubaneswar in 1989, established by Government of Odisha which was taken over by Department of Biotechnology, Government of India in 2002 and declared a National Centre for excellence in 2003. He served as Emeritus Professor of Banaras Hindu University from 1993 to 2011. He was an active and popular teacher of physiology and biochemistry at Banaras Hindu University for more than 40 years.

For research, he took up the problem of ageing to find out the biochemical and molecular changes that occur in the brain and other organs of the rat as a function of age. He made the following original and important findings: not only the levels of several enzymes decrease, but also their isoenzymes change with increasing age; the decrease in their levels can be prevented by administration of steroid hormones whose receptors are present in the brain; decrease in enzyme levels is due to increasing compaction of chromatin that prevents acetylation of histones and decreases transcription; he proposed a model for ageing and showed that trans-acting protein factors that bind to cis-acting elements in the promoter of genes change with age. As signals from the brain cause expression of neurotransmitters in the brain, the neurotransmitter receptors (NT), both excitatory and inhibitory, change with age; also enzymes necessary for synthesis of NT change during the life span of the rat. Kanungo was the founder director of the Institute of Life Sciences of Government of Odisha at Bhubaneswar. He worked hard with the then chief minister of Odisha, Biju Patnaik, for establishing the institute during the late 1980s which is now a DBT Institute.

Until his death Prof. M. S. Kanungo continued working on topics such as expression of genes and proteins involved in neurotransmission and recycling of neurotransmitters in the brain as a function of age;studying genes and proteins to understand the molecular mechanism involved in the process of learning and memory during ageing;expression of genes involved in formation of blood brain barrier (BBB) as a function of age and under different types of stress.

Promotion of gerontology
Kanungo was the founder president (1981–88) and patron (1989–2011) of the Association of Gerontology of India (AGI), which had three components: biological, socio-psychological and medical for research and planning on the ageing and the elderly. He was also an active member of the National Council for Older Persons (N. C. O. P.) of Govt. of India, Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment from 1999–2011, which proposed the National Initiative for Care of Elderly (NICE) policy.
M. S. Kanungo's devotion and dedication to teaching and research in the field of physiology & biochemistry and ageing was absolute
His publications and lectures on ageing have brought into focus the importance of the problem of Gerontology, and the field has been accepted as a thrust area for research and teaching since the 1970s by several scientific agencies like UGC, CSIR, ICMR, DST and DBT. He has also received grants from International agencies like the Nuffield Foundation, London, UK and PL-480, US.
Also, scientists in several Universities and Research Institutes in India have taken up this problem for research.Prof.Kanungo founded the Association of Gerontology (India) – AGI – with headquarters at Banaras Hindu University in 1982. AGI covers the three main areas of Gerontology: biological, medical and socio-psychological. Moreover, Prof. Kanungo has popularised the subject of Gerontology by writing popular articles on Ageing in Science Today, Science Reporter, etc.and by giving lectures at various Institutes and Universities. The subject is being taught as a course in various universities, both in Science and Humanities.
He had published 139 papers in the area of 'Biology of Ageing' and two single authored books: 'Biochemistry of Ageing' (Academic Press, U. K., 1980; translated into Russian) and 'Genes and Aging' (Cambridge Univ. Press, U. K., 1994). His research group in ageing is internationally well known. He had proposed a theory and a model on ageing in 1975, which is known as 'Gene Regulation Theory of Aging'. His research has shown how activities of many physiological/metabolic enzymes, chromatin structure and its post-translational modifications and function(s) as well as expression of genes change during the ageing process in mammals and birds.

The uniforms were unveiled Monday just 132 days before Atlanta hosts Super Bowl LIII.
A large delegation of NFL staffers and contractors convened in Atlanta for a series of meetings this week as the countdown continues to Super Bowl LIII on Feb. 3 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
More than 100 people with responsibility for various aspects of the Super Bowl spectacle participated in the planning meetings Monday through Wednesday.
"We're gearing up, coming up on 100 days to go (as of Oct. 26)," said Peter O'Reilly, the NFL's senior vice president of events. "We've got people back and forth to Atlanta all the time, but we had our whole events team and a lot of our main partners (at these meetings).
Among the NFL contractors on hand were a party-planning company, a signage company and a transportation/parking company, according to Brett Daniels, chief operating officer of the Atlanta Super Bowl Host Committee. Other topics covered included security, public safety and ancillary events, he said.
"Each time (the NFL representatives) are in town, the next level of detail gets added to the mix," Daniels said.
The NFL launched its annual program to plant trees around the Super Bowl host city with a ceremony Monday in the Castleberry Hill neighborhood near Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Forty trees were planted adjacent to a new soccer field and green space under construction.
The Super Bowl LIII urban forestry program -- a partnership among the NFL, the local host committee, Verizon and Trees Atlanta -- will continue with the planting of hundreds of trees over the coming months at a dozen locations in metro Atlanta.
No team has ever played in the Super Bowl in its home stadium, and the Falcons' 1-4 record increases the odds against that changing this season.
The Falcons are now a 33/1 long shot to win the NFC championship and 66/1 to win the Super Bowl, according to Vegas Insider. At the start of the season, the same source had the Falcons' odds at 10/1 to win the NFC title and 16/1 to win the Super Bowl.
The Los Angeles Rams currently are favored to win Super Bowl LIII at 3/1 odds, followed by the Kansas City Chiefs and New England Patriots at 7/1 and the New Orleans Saints at 10/1.
32,500: Number of people who applied to the Atlanta Super Bowl Host Committee to serve in volunteer roles.
10,000: Number of people chosen to serve as volunteers after an application and interview process was completed.
Super Bowl Live: This outdoor celebration, featuring free concerts and other activities, will be held in Centennial Olympic Park from Jan. 26-Feb. 3. Details about some attractions could be announced by the end of the month, Daniels said.
Super Bowl Experience: This indoor football theme park will be held at the Georgia World Congress Center (Building B) from Jan. 26-Feb. 2. Tickets will go on sale in December, O'Reilly said.
Super Bowl Opening Night: The event formerly known as Media Day will be held in State Farm Arena, formerly Philips Arena, on Jan. 28. Tickets likely will go on sale in December, O'Reilly said.

I've never been one for a sales pitch. In fact, often it feels like legalized begging to me. And I'm sure I'm not alone.
But in trying to reach folks, it is important for me to explain why this crowdfunding campaign is so important to us. Yes, we will be serving homeless communities with food, clothing, entertainment and some basics, but that is only a part of what this project entails.
We are currently "stuck" in a rural area where our daily income is split between the cans we take in on the roadside and what I can make playing small gigs. Our monthly earnings for June just topped $300.
The bus is our answer to "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade". The only place I have been able to make money in recent years is on the road. That is the plain and simple fact. I made a very crucial and career killing decision a few years back to accept an IT Director job that I was not ready for, and the end result is that I am unemployable in IT because they are afraid of hiring me for entry level work when I have worked at a higher level (this is not speculation — I have had this said to me directly on numerous occasions), and I cannot obtain minimum wage employment without leaving questionable career gaps on my resume.
I have a BBA in Computer Information Systems.
The only value I have found in my field is as a contract worker, travelling and doing service work for businesses that need boots on the ground on a small enough scale that it is not practical to roll out their own workers.
In addition to that, I have my music, which has become a more pressing interest.
The problem with all of this is that it costs a good deal for lodging. Our family needs 2 motel rooms, so a room that rents by the week will cost us $500 a week. I can provide "fill" work with day labor, but at that rate, the motel would cost more than what I make.
The bus, "Hope" will give us respite from that. We can often boondock at truck stops or WalMart parking lots, and, failing those, RV sites can be found for less than $25 a night, which means even if I am taking day labor as fill work, it will still cost us less than we take in.
And tent camping, our current travel accomodation mode, is much more limited. Free tent sites are becoming much more scarce, and they are limited to seasonal travel and a hope there is no rain.
We need something before winter. And a couple of $250 a week motel rooms is not going to cut it for us.
I know there are more worthy projects. I know there are more pressing projects. But I am asking you right now to dream, to believe in what we can do. Ask me questions if you'd like; I have answers. But please, do what you can to help us launch.


Evjua Strandpark is situated in the cove of Totenvika next to highway Fv 33 between Minnesund and Gjøvik. Just look for the restaurant Viken II, which is shaped like a traditional Mjøsa boat and "moored" at the jetty of Evjua Marina. In addition to the restaurant and marina, Evjua Strandpark offers accommodation at its camp site or at the venerable Kapteinsboligen. You can enjoy activities such as beach volleyball, water trampolining, fishing, bathing, climbing and scenic paths along lake Mjøsa, through beautiful countryside and forests to the top of the Totenåsen hill for a magnificent view.

Lumad Leader Bai Bibyaon Ligkayan Bigkay is 2017 UP Gawad Tandang Sora awardee
February 22, 2017 | Written by UP Media and Public Relations Office
The College of Social Work and Community Development of the University of the Philippines Diliman (UP-CSWCD) announces the selection of Bai Bibyaon Ligkayan Bigkay as the recipient of the 2017 Gawad Tandang Sora.
Bai Bibyaon is an outstanding indigenous woman leader. The only female chieftain in the history of the Manobo tribe, she has led the defense of the Manobo ancestral land since 1994. She was among those who led the pangayaw (tribal war) against the intrusion of a destructive logging company that threatened to destroy the ancestral lands in Talaingod, Davao del Norte. She remains active in asserting the rights of indigenous peoples until today.
The awarding ceremony will be held on February 23, 2017 at 9:00 a.m., during the UP-CSWCD's College Week celebration. Bai Bibyaon, the third recipient of the Gawad since 2010, will receive a trophy made by UP Artist and College of Fine Arts professor and former Dean Leonilo Doloricon and a cash award from the Office of the Chancellor of UP Diliman.
For decades, Bai Bibyaon Ligkayan Bigkay has been at the vanguard of the Lumad struggle, defending the communities of Pantaron range against plunder and militarization. Together with other Datus, she surpassed the hardships brought by militarization, all for the defense of their ancestral land and the environment.
Poster from UP CSWCD Facebook page.
She led her people during the massive exodus to the city after the military and its paramilitary group Alamara intensified their attacks on the Manobo communities in Talaingod and Bukidnon. She also led other indigenous leaders "spill blood on the grounds of the University of the Philippines" as she inspired trailblazing campaigns such as the Manilakbayan ng Mindanao protest camp and caravan and the Sandugo, a national alliance of Moro and indigenous peoples. Constantly, Bai Bibyaon upheld the dignity of the Lumad people as they face ethnocide.
Also among her accomplishments is organizing other indigenous women leaders and forming the Sabokahan to mo Lumad Kamalitanan (Confederation of Lumad Women). She was also instrumental in the growth of the Salugpungan Ta Tanu Igkanugon Learning Center which started in her community but now runs around 50 elementary and high school campuses for indigenous children.
As she nears the centenary of a life devoted to land, culture, rights, and life, she stands tall as a nurturing leader and as a woman of courage and vision for her people. Bai Bibyaon is the Tandang Sora of the countryside. She is the Mother of the Lumads who inspires the revolution of the Filipino people for national self-determination and freedom.
The U.P. Gawad Tandang Sora is the award bestowed upon outstanding academics, practitioners, or organizations that rendered excellent service in the fields of Social Work, Community Development, Women and Development and Social Development. It is administered by the College of Social Work and Community Development of the University of the Philippines Diliman.
The award is named after Melchora "Tandang Sora" Aquino, the "Mother of the Philippine Revolution," whose life and deeds represent love of country and service to her fellow Filipinos. (UPCSWCD)

The New York Times: Caleb Wallace, a leader in the anti-mask movement in central Texas, became infected with the coronavirus and has been in an intensive care unit for the past three weeks, barely clinging to life, his wife, Jessica, said.
Mrs. Wallace said that her husband's condition was declining and that doctors have run out of treatment options. On Saturday he will be moved to a hospice at Shannon Medical Center in San Angelo, Texas, so that his family can say their goodbyes, she said.
Mr. Wallace, 30, has lived in San Angelo for most of his life and works at a company that sells welding equipment. He checked into the Shannon Medical Center on July 30. Mrs. Wallace set up a GoFundMe page that has collected over $35,000, to cover the cost of medical bills.
Earlier that month, Mr. Wallace had organized a "Freedom Rally" for people who were "sick of the government being in control of our lives."
"They believed the coronavirus was a hoax and they felt that the government was being too heavy-handed when it came to masks," San Angelo's mayor, Brenda Gunter, said in an interview.
In April, Mr. Wallace penned a letter to the San Angelo Independent School District demanding they "rescind ALL COVID-related policies immediately," and questioning the science and efficacy of masks for schoolchildren.
Mr. Wallace's father, Russell Wallace, said his son firmly believes mask and vaccination requirements are a violation of personal liberties. "After watching all the government overreach here he decided he wanted to do something about it," Russell Wallace said.
Mrs. Wallace, who is pregnant with the couple's fourth child, told the San Angelo Standard-Times that when her husband first felt ill, he took a mix of vitamin C, zinc, aspirin and ivermectin — a drug typically used to treat parasitic worms in both people and animals that has been touted as a coronavirus treatment but was recently proved to be ineffective against the virus.

She said her husband respected her own decision to wear a mask. "We joked around about how he was on one side and I was on the other, and that's what made us the perfect couple and we balanced each other out," she said.
She added that her three children are up-to-date on their vaccines and that she herself planned to get a coronavirus vaccine after the birth of her baby in late September. "We are not anti-vaxxers," she said.
Still, Mrs. Wallace said her husband strongly believed the decision to get vaccinated or to wear a mask should rest with an individual and not with the government. "That is one of the few things I agreed with my husband on," she said.
Mayor Gunter said Mr. Wallace had an overwhelming love for his city. During the state's record-breaking winter storm in February, Mr. Wallace and his father volunteered to drive out to residents trapped in their homes.
"When we are called to action, we forget about those differences and just do the right thing," she said. Shannon Medical Center currently has 70 percent of its intensive care beds full. This August in Tom Green County, which is home to San Angelo, the seven-day average of new cases has risen to the highest level since November 2020, according to a New York Times database.
Russell Wallace, who also had Covid-19, said that he was in the hospital for 13 days, but his condition improved enough for him to return home.
Despite his own illness and his son's dire condition, Russell Wallace said he still firmly believed that masks are ineffective and that the government should not mandate them or vaccinations. He has, however, decided to "look into" getting the shots.
"Personally for me, I'm not so hesitant about the vaccinations now," he said. "I've stared down that barrel and quite honestly, it scared the hell out of me."

Interestingly one believes it's an individual's right to choose but why to convince others not to take the Vaccine? That's intellectual dishonest…

Anti-vaxxers and/or anti-maskers should not have the right or privilege to access emergency or medical care, putting our healthcare professionals at risk. They are taking up space needed for innocent people. They are guilty of spreading the virus and ought to be penalized. Defiance to a health crisis should be considered a felony. Point blank! I endorse my own message.

"I was always fascinated by the way clothing could change someone's mood instantaneously."
Clothing to me has always been a way to express myself, especially since I was naturally a shy and quiet child. I loved how I could put on a dress and let the clothes speak for themselves. I would put on clothing so I could communicate to the world without having to say one single word.
I was always fascinated by the way clothing could change someone's mood instantaneously. When I was a child, my ice breaker was when someone complimented me on my clothes and even now as an adult fashion is still my go to conversation. I love putting on a new dress and instantly feel more confident, more successful or just give off the image that I had everything I need to feel like me without having to talk much.
My father was similar in so many ways since English was his second language coming from the Philippines. My dad would make friends by offering his services as a tailor to his co-workers when he worked as a computer programmer. I grew up watching my father come home from work and sew the most beautiful garments in his spare time. I was amazed he was able to take a flat piece of fabric and give it life while supporting his family and being a father. That has stayed with me for my entire life.
I remember the dedication my dad had for his craft early in my own my career in accounting. I too was coming home from work to sew, but the difference was that my dad was working on suits and I was sewing custom wedding gowns.
Throughout changing careers, lifestyles, and this journey of life, I understand what it feels like to want something so much that you would give anything to follow your heart. I've learned so much that I realized many people have similar experiences. I've met people just like me who realized their personal identities were closely tied to the work they do and the careers they chose.
My hope is when you see my clothes, you know my designs are a part of me and who I am. That I created Jennyvi New York from juggling careers and loving what I do. So when you see these clothes I designed or made myself, you know how much love and dedication went into each piece.

UK should 'cool down', 'rethink Brexit' – EU commission
Frans Timmermans incoming President of European Commission advises UK to rethink Brexit
Britain should use the next few months to "cool down and rethink" its decision to leave the European Union, the socialist candidate to head the next European Commission, Frans Timmermans, said on Wednesday.
Last week EU leaders gave Britain an extension of its departure date until Oct. 31, with the possibility of leaving sooner if parliament ratifies a divorce deal Prime Minister Theresa May has negotiated with the EU. Lawmakers have already rejected the deal three times.
"I absolutely hope that the UK might stay in the EU," Timmermans, now the Commission's first vice president, said in a television debate on France 24 with his main rival, Manfred Weber of the centre-right European People's Party (EPP).
"I hope this period of extension will be used for Britain to calm down and rethink things a bit, perhaps for politicians to be more responsible with the promises they make, and then look at the issue again later this year," the Dutchman said.
"Who knows what might change in the meantime?" he said.
Timmermans was expressing a sentiment shared by some in the EU, notably the chairman of EU leaders, Donald Tusk, that Britain could still change its mind and stay in the EU.
Polls show that enough Britons may have had a change of heart about Brexit since the 2016 referendum, in which they voted to leave the bloc by 52 to 48 percent. But May and her government remain strongly opposed to holding another vote.
Timmermans hopes to replace the EPP's Jean-Claude Juncker as head of the European Commission, the most powerful of EU institutions. He is running on a ticket from the EU's second biggest political family, the socialists.
Britain is likely to still be a member of the EU at the time of the European Parliament elections on May 23-26, which means it would take part in the vote. Britain's opposition Labour Party, which backs a second referendum, could help Timmermans' socialists win more seats in the 751-seat European assembly.
Weber does not stand to benefit in the same way from British participation in the EU elections because no UK parties belong to the EPP, currently the largest grouping in the parliament.
"I have a problem that they (Britain) are now participating in the EU elections, are deciding about the future of our union," Weber said during the TV debate with Timmermans.

Dublin: Rain meant only 18 overs were possible as the lone one-day international between Ireland and England at Malahide ended in a washed-out no result on Friday.
The rain, which interrupted play after 79 minutes, did not relent and the umpires called the match off shortly after 3:00pm local time .
England`s debutant captain James Taylor won the toss and had no hesitation in asking their hosts to bat first in overcast conditions.
Taylor`s team, without members of the side that featured in the recent third Test defeat by the West Indies in Barbados, featured five players making their first appearance in a one-day international.
Two of them, Mark Wood and David Willey, took a wicket each as Ireland slumped to 56 for four when the rain arrived.
Paul Stirling was the first batsman dismissed, too slow to react to William Porterfield`s call for a quick single and wicket-keeper Jonny Bairstow`s direct hit left the Middlesex batsman well short.
Porterfield struggled to impose himself against accurate bowling and Wood got his reward when he forced the Ireland captain to play on, for just seven from 27 balls, in the seventh over as Ireland declined to 23 for two.
Niall O`Brien hit back with two fours in the space of four balls but his attacking play proved his downfall as he edged a drive off Tim Bresnan straight to a third debutant, James Vince — Jason Roy and Zafar Ansari were the others — at first slip.
That wicket made it 44 for three and five overs later it was 56 for four when Andrew Balbirnie was caught at second slip by Roy off Willey, the son of former England batsman Peter Willey.
New batsman Gary Wilson played out a maiden to Steven Finn but before Ed Joyce could continue his defiant, unbeaten innings of 23, the umpires took the players off, never to return.

Before heading to the hardware store or paint supply store to pick up the supplies for the next big painting project, there are a few things to remember in order to make the situation considerably easier, both for the customer and for the paint specialist at the store. After all, no one really wants to spend more time shopping for supplies than they absolutely have to (at least, no one apart from some tool-addicts out there).
What exactly does this project entail? Is it just a single room, or multiple rooms? As much as possible, figure out a rough square footage of the project. A relatively simple way to do this is to "walk" the length of the walls, then simply multiply the number of steps times three and multiply the result by eight (for standard ceilings – though if the room has high ceilings, this number can vary). Now, at least this should give a good idea of how much paint will be necessary.
How much area does a gallon of paint cover? Well, that really depends on several things. How good is the quality of the paint, what color is the paint, and what color is it covering? Most gallons cans of paint claim to cover 200 to 400 square feet of wall. The low end of this would be for very porous surfaces or attempting to cover a difficult previous coat (if this is the case, it will most likely require two coats of paint, or one coat of primer and one coat of paint).
Next, check for any "special needs" on the walls. Are there any stains that need covering? Any holes that will need patching? If so, a good coat of stain-covering primer and some lightweight spackle will be a good addition to the shopping list.
It's very easy to spend vast amounts of time leafing through every colour sample at the paint store, looking for one that is just right. However, this is really not the best way to find the perfect colour. Colours may look very different on sheets with several other colours than they will on a wall. It's good to have at least some good colour ideas going into the store. If a sample of a chosen colour can be obtained, chances are good that the store will have the ability to match that colour into the chosen brand of paint.
As much as possible, think this through before going to the hardware store, if for no other reason than to save a little bit of time in making an extra trip.
Colours can be very difficult, though, especially for a picky person. Paints, due to their texture and sheen, can look very different depending on the lighting of the room and the other colours surrounding it. For the person who is very picky about colours, perhaps an extra trip to the store to pick up some actual samples of paint (many brands have small packages of various colours of paint premixed as samples, others can mix up small pint containers that cover a few square feet of a wall), just to get a good idea of what the paint will actually look like.
In addition to colour, it is a good idea to know what sheen might work best for the project. First, you'll need to read a thorough breakdown of the various sheen options.
Is the project going to require certain fixtures or windows to be taped off? Some good painter's tape should be added to the list. How about a cloth or some plastic to cover the floor? Of course a paint job requires paint brushes or rollers, but what exactly is going to be needed?
For cutting in along edges, a good 2" angled paint brush works well, though different people have their own methods, so it's difficult to say what exactly will be best for the average person. As far as rollers go, though, a standard 3/8" nap roller cover and frame should work well for walls with medium texture. For popcorn ceilings or very high textured walls, a 5/8" nap would be a better idea. Conversely, for very smooth walls, probably go with a ¼" nap.
Last but not least, there will surely be some questions remaining, as every project is different and there simply isn't space here to go over all the different variables and to list the many, many interesting and useful tools that have been developed to make painting easier.
For all of this – here is where the store employees come in handy. They will be able to answer very specific questions about each individual job, and provide recommendations for tools and products. They will surely be grateful, however, for any customer that already knows what they need before even entering the store.

USPTO and the National Board of Patents and Registration of Finland
CONTACT: Jennifer Rankin Byrne or Ruth Nyblod
Phone: (571) 272-8400 or jennifer.rankin_byrne@uspto.gov or Ruth.Nyblod@uspto.gov
WASHINGTON - The Commerce Department's United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and the National Board of Patents and Registration of Finland (NBPR) agreed to partner in establishing a Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH) pilot program. PPH agreements are cooperative initiatives that streamline the patent system and promote expeditious, inexpensive and high-quality patent protection throughout the world. The U.S.-Finnish PPH is USPTO's tenth such agreement with other nations' patent and trademark offices. The pilot period will begin on July 6, 2009, and continue for a period of one year.
"This PPH pilot marks a new cooperative partnership with the National Board of Patents and Registration of Finland," said Acting Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Acting Director of the USPTO John Doll. "By taking advantage of the work done at each other's office, we will reduce inefficient redundancy of efforts and expedite the examination process at both offices. PPH plays an important role in our workshare strategy to counter the growing backlog and increasing pendency of patent applications and offer more options to our users."
"Serving our clients is our top priority," said President of NBPR Martti Enäjärvi. "We believe the reduction of duplication of examination work, speeding up processing, and improvement of patent quality will bring great advantages to Finnish and U.S. applicants. With this agreement, the NBPR will now have PPH pilot programs with two major patent offices, the USPTO and the Japan Patent Office. We are pleased with the new collaboration with these key offices and having the possibility to provide new alternatives for our clients."
Under PPH agreements, an applicant receiving a favorable ruling from one nation's patent office on at least one claim in an application may request that the corresponding application filed with the other nation advance out of turn for examination. By coordinating patentable results between both nations' offices, applicants can expect to obtain patents in both nations more quickly. USPTO requirements for participation in the U.S.-Finnish PPH are available at: www.uspto.gov/web/patents/pph/pph_nbpr.html.
NBPR requirements for participation can be found at: www.prh.fi/en/patentit/pph.html.
The USPTO and NBPR will continue to evaluate the needs of applicants and the progress of the PPH. Discussions on revisions to the requirements and to improve the procedure of the PPH will be ongoing.
The pilot program may be extended if necessary to adequately assess the feasibility of the PPH program. Notification of any revisions will be posted on the Web sites of each office.
