Nearly every day I get a phone call from a startup MSP and I hear an entire plan of how that managed services company is going to kick things off the ground and rocket off into the stars.
How many actually make it that far? Less than those start, I'll tell you that much. In fact it is probably on a factor of 1 in 8 actually make it to any form of maturity, and even of the few that make it through, only a few really achieve what the founder was envisioning.
It provides the lifestyle that you want.
It lets you work from home/anywhere.
It brings in regular recurring revenue.
It lets you better service your clients.
It lets you react faster.
It gives you deeper insights into your client's networks and lets you avoid developing issues before they take a network down.
I could go on, but needless to say, there are significant benefits to running an MSP. So then why do so many never make it off the ground?
MSPs can fail for many reasons. Not billing enough, no proper plan, bad sales force, can't actually do the work, and more. But there are two main reasons that an MSP is going to fail.
Keep in mind that these two reasons I'm about to share are serious and are not a poor reflection on MSP business owners in any way. Instead, they are a challenge which EVERY BUSINESS must overcome in order to reach its full potential.
So what are the two reasons?
Lack of consistency pursuing that vision.
When an MSP is getting started, often the business owner (not unlike yourself) has grand plans for how his business is going to fill a need in the market. I hear things like "we're going to provide a niche service" or "I can do a better job than anyone else out there." But neither of these statements indicate any real vision for the business. It is a glimmer of vision or may be the result of vision, but it isn't the mature product.
The definition of vision is "seeing something." For an MSP, a vision may be owning thirty $4,000/mo contracts by the end of five years in the lawyer space while only working 25 hours a week. Bold, but achievable. But this leads to problem #2. A problem which I personally suffer from all the time! Life has a tendency to throw us curve-balls. Most MSP owners break down under the pressure (it is immense!) and just learn to accept that they have a place in life and don't consistently FIGHT to reach their vision.
They lose sight of the goal in the heat of the battle to get there. Then, just like the soldier out in the field, they forget why they are there to begin with. With the customer alarms, and loud emails and phone calls, constant meetings, and the humdrum of daily life they forget why they got into this whole mess to begin with. Eventually, they throw their hands up and give up. They sell the business off or extinguish it.
So that leaves some questions here for me to ask you. Do you have the chutzpah to build the next Mindshift or Network Depot? Are you able to stay in the trenches and still maintain your center?
Why don't you share your thoughts on this in the comments below.

Ocean Elder Sylvia Earle (left), Palau President Tommy Remengesau Jr., Ocean Elder Nainoa Thompson, and William Aila Jr., chairman of the Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources, at a recent conference in Samoa.
Palau President Tommy Remengesau Jr. received the 2014 Leadership Award on Sept. 21 from the Ocean Elders, a group of distinguished global leaders who support ocean protection.
The award, given at a dinner in New York, recognizes Remengesau for his efforts to create a fully protected marine sanctuary in much of the Pacific island nation's ocean waters.
The announcement came as world leaders, including Remengesau, gathered at the United Nations to address pressing environmental issues.
Located in the western Pacific, Palau is world-renowned for its healthy and incredibly diverse marine ecosystem. Home to more than 1,300 species of fish and 700 species of coral, the waters off this Micronesian nation have been called one of the seven underwater wonders of the world. This nutrient-rich environment is teeming with sharks, turtles, manta rays, dugongs, and tropical fish. These attributes merit greater protection.
In June 2014 at the U.S. State Department's Our Ocean conference, Remengesau announced plans to transform more than 80 percent of the waters surrounding Palau into a fully protected marine sanctuary.
Less than 1 percent of the ocean worldwide is fully protected, compared with 12 percent of the land. Research shows that very large, fully protected marine reserves are essential to rebuilding species abundance and diversity and to protecting the overall health of the marine environment.
Global Ocean Legacy, a project of The Pew Charitable Trusts and its partners, is collaborating with the Palau president to make his vision a reality. Pew's staff is working with local communities, governments, and scientists around the world to protect and conserve some of our most important and unspoiled ocean environments.
Together we are establishing the world's first generation of great marine parks by securing the designation of large, fully protected reserves. To date, efforts by Pew and its partners have helped to double the amount of safeguarded ocean habitat worldwide.

Food giant Danone is planning to become the world's largest international B-Corp by 2030.
The nonnprofit B-Lab grants B-Corporation status, and "benefit corporation" is a legal recognition by most US states and a few other countries. Both indicate that the company's operations include benefits to society and employees, in addition to increasing shareholder value, as part of its goals.
Danone's North American subsidiary is already the world's largest B-Corp, and CEO Emmanuel Faber says it has benefitted the business.
French company Danone is one of the world's largest food producers (best known in the United States for its Dannon yogurt brand), with a market cap of around $47 billion.
It's also on track to become the world's largest certified B-Corp – one that binds itself to goals that benefit society and employees in addition to shareholders – by 2030. Its North American subsidiary is already the largest, among more than 2,600 in the world.
Since 2006, nonprofit organization B-Lab has been granting B-Corp certification, which qualifies a company to apply for the legally binding "benefit corporation" designation. So far, benefit corporations are fully recognized by 33 American states and Washington, DC, as well as Italy and Colombia, with movements in several other countries, like Canada and Australia. B-Lab grants B-Corp certification to any company meeting and sustaining its requirements, regardless of state or country.
Danone CEO Emmanuel Faber recently spoke with Business Insider's Sara Silverstein on an episode of our daily news show Business Insider Today, explaining that making these public promises was a risky decision but one that he feels will be very beneficial in the long term, especially in competition with smaller, socially conscious companies stealing their market share.
Danone first approached B-Lab in 2015, and began a certification process for several of its American and European brands, as test cases. Then, last year, it began a three-year plan for Danone North America. It finished early, receiving certification this past April.
Faber noted that the process was not as difficult as it otherwise may have been due to a social impact initiative Danone had begun 15 years earlier.
He said that the certification has received tremendous employee support and won over skeptical investors. He said that Danone's plan helped it renegotiate a 2-billion-euro syndicated banking loan with 12 major banks, at a lower cost. "So this is basically recognizing the fact the credit rating of Danone is better as a B-Corp than not being a B-Corp," he said.

L.A. Opera Declines to Release Details on Placido Domingo Investigation

The Los Angeles Opera has declined to release any details of its promised investigation into allegations of sexual harassment against opera legend Placido Domingo, the company's longtime general director, including whether it has already started.
The union that represents opera singers said Friday that it plans a meeting in Los Angeles next week to address its members' concerns ahead of the LA company's season opener Sept. 14.
Len Egert, the executive director of the American Guild of Musical Artists, told The Associated Press that the union has been receiving its own reports from members since an AP story earlier this week detailing accusations against the 78-year-old singing star.
European Opera Houses Standing By Placido Domingo… For Now
Hours after the AP story was released Tuesday detailing the allegations, the LA Opera announced it would engage outside counsel to investigate the "concerning allegations."
Three of the nine women who accused the singer of harassment and abuse of power described encounters they said took place while working with Domingo at the LA organization. The nine women and dozens of others interviewed said Domingo's behavior was an open secret in the industry and that he pursued younger women with impunity.
On Friday, LA Opera would not disclose who would be conducting the investigation, how it would be carried out, when it would start or its expected duration.
A spokeswoman for the company said Friday LA Opera will share details when they have information and that there was currently nothing to add beyond the statement released Tuesday.
Domingo is widely credited with raising the profile of LA Opera, where he served as an artistic consultant from 1984 to 2000, artistic director from 2000 to 2003 and, finally, general director from 2003 until now. His current contract runs through the 2021-22 season.
Concerts Canceled, Investigation Opened Into Placido Domingo
In its initial statement, LA Opera said Domingo "has been a dynamic creative force in the life of LA Opera" but that it is committed to ensuring that its employees and artists "be treated respectfully and feel safe and secure."
Domingo did not respond to detailed questions from the AP about specific incidents. But he issued a statement calling the allegations "deeply troubling, and as presented, inaccurate," adding "I believed that all of my interactions and relationships were always welcomed and consensual."
The allegations in the AP story sparked a global discussion among opera singers on social media forums about the culture of sexual misconduct in the classical music world and the belief that opera companies have long been aware of bad behavior and tolerated it, particularly when the accused are people in positions of power.
Aside from LA Opera, the other women quoted in the story recounted incidents they said took place at other venues, including Washington Opera and the Metropolitan Opera in New York, ranging from 1988 into the mid-2000s.
Some of the women told the AP that Domingo used his power at the LA company and elsewhere to try to pressure them into sexual relationships, with several saying that he dangled jobs and then sometimes punished them professionally if they refused his advances.
Placido Domingo Accused of Sexual Harassment
The Philadelphia Orchestra and San Francisco Opera announced they would cancel upcoming performances featuring the star. The Metropolitan Opera said it would await the results of LA Opera's investigation "before making any final decisions about Mr. Domingo's future at the Met," where he is scheduled to appear next month.
The American Guild of Musical Artists issued a statement calling for wider investigations across the opera world.
"AGMA became aware of serious allegations of sexual harassment made by multiple women against Placido Domingo. We have contacted our employers to demand investigations into these allegations," said the statement issued earlier this week.
Since then, "through our confidential reporting system we have been receiving reports from members," Egert said Friday. "We are providing timely, confidential advice and guidance to these artists." He did not elaborate.
Egert said that AGMA will be "closely monitoring the internal LA Opera investigation" and has scheduled a membership meeting in Los Angeles early next week, prior to the start of rehearsals, to address any member concerns on questions. The LA Opera 2019-2020 season starts Sept. 14 with "La Boheme."
Asked if the union was aware of Domingo's alleged behavior previously, he said, "AGMA did not receive complaints from its members prior to the recent news reports."

Richard Sherman wasn't happy with 49ers' win, but does he have a point?
November 1, 2019, 1:38 PM UTC
Richard Sherman's teammates on the San Francisco 49ers defense haven't experienced much success. They haven't experienced much of anything really.
Sherman is 31 years old and a Super Bowl champion. Only two other members of the 49ers regular starting defense are older than 26. Jimmie Ward is 28 and Jaquiski Tartt is 27. Nobody else on the 49ers defense can match Sherman's NFL resume. Not even close.
[Watch live NFL games on the Yahoo Sports app, here's how]
For the past few weeks the 49ers have heard a lot of praise, which hasn't happened much since the Jim Harbaugh era ended. They're 8-0 after Thursday night's 28-25 win against the Arizona Cardinals that was a lot closer than anticipated. Instead of celebrating another victory, Sherman was critical of himself and his teammates following a win.
"You're thankful for the offense," Sherman said. "We let us down, myself included."
Part of his message had to be the mental side of the game, prodding his teammates to remain sharp while being praised as one of the best teams in the NFL. But Sherman was happy to point out the miscues.
Richard Sherman: Win was 'humbling'
When Sherman, who has played very well this season, speaks it should carry a little extra weight. He was part of a mini-dynasty with the Seattle Seahawks. He knows what it takes to win and keep winning.
And what he saw on Thursday night, with Cardinals running back Kenyan Drake rushing for 110 yards just three days after being acquired in a trade and quarterback Kyler Murray hitting a few big plays, wasn't good enough.
"It's humbling, it's humbling for the defense," Sherman said. "We need to be humbled. It was a humbling game. You need to be humbled on all levels. I think there was accountability on all levels. We'll watch the tape and we'll watch it critically. Everybody will watch it and judge themselves critically. That's not championship football."
Note that Sherman was adamant about the defense needing to be humbled. In the four games after San Francisco's bye week, the 49ers gave up 23 total points and 180.3 yards per game. Everyone around the NFL has taken notice of their great start. Then they gave up a season-high in points and yards on Thursday night against a team with a rookie quarterback and head coach.
Late in the game, with the 49ers trying to close out a win, rookie receiver Andy Isabella scored an 88-yard touchdown to get the Cardinals back in the game. The 49ers were good enough to still hold onto the win, but the NFC's projected playoff field looks very tough and they probably can't get away with that type of performance against Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees or Russell Wilson.

Sherman outlines the issues
Playing a road game on a Thursday night, against a tricky offense, isn't easy. And if you take away the 88-yard touchdown, the 49ers' performance looks a lot better.
Sherman will use the breakdowns as motivation. Sherman said Arizona didn't do anything unexpected.
"Nothing, nothing. They didn't do anything that was really difficult," Sherman said. "The quarterback ran from time to time. We missed plays. We missed tackles. We blew assignments. It's mistakes you can't make.
"That's not winning football. Thank goodness our offense played great."
Sherman talked about blown assignments, players being in the wrong spot and missed tackles. He bemoaned fundamental mistakes. He took responsibility for his own play too, saying he took a bad angle and missed a tackle on Isabella's long touchdown.
The 49ers will be fine. They have a lot of talent and haven't had many letdowns this season. And they can fix whatever happened following a win, which always helps. Imagine how upset Sherman would have been had the 49ers lost.
"It's not about the results. It's never about the results," Sherman said. "It's about the process. It's about doing things right.
"This is the epitome of 'a lot to work on.'"

Delegate Spotlight: Michelle Hannahs
This was my third trip with a SHARE delegation to serve as an election observer in El Salvador. On each trip, I have learned more about the history and concerns of the people of El Salvador. Some of it is very disturbing because it involves injustice and murder of innocent citizens by agents of the U.S. government. Our group visited the chapel where Monsignor Romero was assassinated, and we heard some of the details of this horrific event. It seems that in the many years since Romero's death, information about U.S. involvement becomes more evident. Of course, the U.S. also armed pro-government forces during El Salvador's civil war, including death squads that murdered thousands of innocent citizens. Yet, Salvadorans choose to settle in the U.S., and one of the largest concentrations is in the area where I live, metropolitan Washington, DC.
These great contradictions continue in the policies and practices of our current federal government, which has become very anti-immigrant, and particularly unjust to people of color. I was treated with such warmth and respect during my time in El Salvador; at the polling places, many Salvadorans approached me and asked about where I come from and how I became an election observer; they told me of their travels in the U.S. and several said they had lived in the U.S. for several years. On the most recent trip, I felt uncomfortable to be an American and wondered if anyone would show hostility toward me or other members of the delegation.
SHARE does an amazing job of organizing and leading the delegations. On my first trip, for the presidential election in 2014, we spent several days in orientation, including lectures by an economist and visits to historic sites as well as visiting community based programs which were improving the lives of women and the poor. We met with leaders such as a mayor and several mothers of children who "disappeared" during the civil war. We went to candidate forums. We were hosted by a former ambassador at his beautiful home. The SHARE staff held many discussions so that we could reflect on our experiences and ask questions about what we were learning. I feel that all of the activities are very carefully chosen and well planned so that delegates will better understand what is at stake in having a free and fair election process. The other delegates come from all over the U.S. as well as Canada and Mexico. The range of ages and professions was surprising. We had two college students in our group, as well as at least two senior citizens (that's me!) The thoughtfulness and assistance from SHARE staff who accompanied our group was exceptional.
I think the most exciting part of observing the election is the vote counting. When the president of the precinct (table) held up each ballot, it was just thrilling. I wish U.S. elections had such transparency.
There is much more I could say about my memorable service with SHARE delegations, but I conclude that I will be returning to participate in a future delegation. I thank SHARE for the opportunity to meet fascinating people and for working to improve confidence in the electoral process.

Return to country
Through a combination of both-ways land management, social support and enterprise, Dambimangari Aboriginal Corporation is developing a new generation of leaders to sustain language and culture.
Kimberley, Western Australia: Many members of the Dambimangari community live in the Western Kimberley—in Derby, Mowanjum and other places—and some are as far away as Perth. Government policy and history have dislocated and fragmented them, but essential traditions and identity remain.
Rowena Mouda, chair of the board of Dambimangari Aboriginal Corporation
For directors of Dambimangari Aboriginal Corporation, a key objective is to develop a new generation of leaders to preserve language and culture. So the task of creating opportunities for people to return to country is high on the agenda. They need to make sure that members know the value of being connected to country, and are able to take up the opportunity to restore those connections as they arise. So the corporation also looks after its people, with health, education, employment and social support. Of course, returning to country depends on the land being in good shape, so managing a top-notch ranger program guided by the Dambimangari Healthy Country Plan is another vital part of the corporation's work.
Chair of the board, Rowena Mouda, describes the concern that elders have expressed, that Dambimangari cultural heritage and law are at risk due to the demands and stresses of modern life.
When the elders look around, they see this new generation of young people who've never known the feeling of belonging and safety they know from living on country. They want to give young people that experience. As directors of Dambimangari Aboriginal Corporation, it's our job to pave the way to make that happen.
Clearly, cultural revival is a primary objective for this corporation; and they are creating the opportunity to achieve it.
Dambimangari people lodged a native title claim in 1998, registered the Dambimangari Aboriginal Corporation in 2006 and finally, in 2011, won a determination by consent. The decision recognised their connection to coastal lands and waters and hinterland between the Robinson and Prince Regent rivers. The following year, 2012, the corporation released a 10-year strategic 'healthy country' plan. Since then, the directors and staff have reached several major milestones.
In 2016 the corporation signed an agreement with the Western Australian Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions to jointly manage the marine ecology of Dambimangari country. Then in December 2017, it formed a partnership with Australian Wildlife Conservancy to look after inland Dambi country: the only place in Australia to have suffered no extinctions since colonisation. The idea of both arrangements is to combine scientific and traditional cultural ways of knowing to ensure best-practice care for country. By working with environmental scientists, Dambimangari rangers and other employees bring both sets of knowledge to their work of monitoring and managing the flora and fauna of Dambimangari country, including fire management.
For the corporation's board, these agreements are a big win for both community and country. As Ms Mouda says, 'These partnerships hold the potential to deliver some very solid conservation outcomes for a unique part of the world. We're proud to see Dambimangari people leading Dambimangari projects both in the field and in the administrative realm.'
Dambimangari Rangers Amon Jungine and Jordan Barunga with AWC Kimberley operations manager Toby Barton; vice-chair of Dambimangari Aboriginal Corporation Warren Barunga; and Indigenous protected areas manager James Mansfield.
Another key achievement for 2017 was the publication of a book about Dambimangari country, culture and history—part of a major effort to preserve heritage and identity and help young people understand their country and ancestry. Developed over five years with senior elders and family representatives, in conjunction with a group of researchers who have worked with the elders for 40 years, the book is called Barddabardda Wodjenangordee: We're telling all of you. It's a major work—416 pages, including 50 images of people and striking rock art—and it presents significant details of Dambimangari country, the old people and the resilience of Dambimangari culture and community both before and after colonisation. Ms Mouda situates the book in terms of the corporation's mission as follows: 'For us, cultural revival is just as important as economic development and environmental management.'
Evidently, Dambimangari Aboriginal Corporation is a well-run organisation with a clear vision for healthy country and culture, both past and future—in other words, for all time.

Kate Responds To Fan Mail — 23 Years Later
Story from Celebrity Style
Kate Moss Responds To A Fan's Letter — 23 Years Later
Ana Colon

The year was 1994. It was the peak of the supermodel era, complete with sexy Calvin Klein campaigns and rumored celebrity beaus — especially for Kate Moss. It was also a time when fans still took pen to paper with the hopes of catching a star's attention, if only for a moment. (No "First like" or "Follow to follow" here.) Thats exactly what Fiona from Hereford, England did to Moss back then — except her note has taken a bit longer than anticipated to land in the intended recipient's hands, according to i-D.
Apparently, Fiona penned a letter to Moss 23 years ago, sharing her own ambitions of working in fashion some day and inquiring about her then-rumored relationship to Johnny Depp. She sent it to Storm, the model's agency at the time. However, that's as far as Fiona's note got, according to the Instagram account for Moss' newly-launched Agency (i.e. the closest Kate herself has to a personal social account, though she has that private one).
FOUND - Unopened fan mail from 1994! Fiona from Hereford there's a signed Kate Moss book here for you... Sorry about the wait.
A photo posted by Kate Moss Agency (@katemossagency) on Jan 5, 2017 at 6:07am PST
Fast forward two decades (and a few celebrity romances for Moss) later: the O.G. supermodel's talent house posted a shot of the note, handwritten on a lined sheet. "FOUND - Unopened fan mail from 1994," the caption read. Better late than never, right?
"I will only write a short letter because I know you must be busy," Fiona had written, before getting right to the point: "anyway how did you get into modeling?" She went on to ask Moss to confirm whether or not she was seeing Depp. (And, if she indeed was, could she send autographed pictures, please.) Fiona shared that while she loved fashion, she was going to enter the industry in a beauty-focused capacity "because I love chips and junk food and I am short." She hoped that, one day, she'd run into Moss in the makeup chair.
The saga doesn't end there. It may have taken a while, but Moss does indeed plan on responding to Fiona's letter — not only that, but she'll be sending a signed copy of her namesake Rizzoli book. (Finally, there's that autograph you were asking for, Fiona!) Never doubt the power of snail mail, folks.

Meghan Markle is banned from doing a bunch of ordinary things after the Royal wedding
https://news.amomama.com/85718-meghan-markle-banned-a-bunch-ordinary-ro.html
The former Suits star will have to get used to the fact that after the royal wedding, she will have to adhere to a number of strict rules.
According to a report by The Sun, since Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex exchanged their vows and the Archbishop of Canterbury joined them together as husband and wife, Meghan's "simple" life has changed forever.
Now that she's officially joined the Royal family, the American actress will be getting to grips with the strict rules that come with being a member of British royalty.
Meghan's social media, including her Twitter and Instagram, have been inactive for months. As you might expect, she will no longer be able to use her own personal accounts.
Instead, like Prince Harry, William, and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, she will use the family's Kensington Royal account to share updates on her life and royal happenings.
The account is where the family shared her engagement pictures and announcement.
Here is a list of the things the new Duchess of Sussex is banned from doing:
Going out in public totally alone: Now that she's joined one of the most famous families in the world, she will have to get used to being surrounded by top security at all times.
Heading out for a jog in the park by herself will have to be a memory of the past. Like every member of the royal family, Meghan will have security with her everywhere she goes.
Source: Twitter/beatlesjad
No more selfies: In today's age taking selfies is very common but is it definitely a no-no when it comes to British royalty. At any event or occasion, Meghan is forbidden from taken selfies either alone or with someone else.
Reports state that the Queen highly dislikes selfies and so this habit has seemed to trickle down to the rest of the family members.
No autographs: As an actress. Meghan has definitely had her fair share of autographs to sign, but now that she has become royalty, she won't be allowed to sign them anymore.
The royals are said to default an apology when asked for an autograph by the general public.
No colored nail polish: Take a look at Meghan's hands in the recent months, and you'll notice that she's already started following this rule.
Royal family members are prohibited from wearing dark and colored nail polish, meaning that they stick with skin-tone shades.
No voting: According to British Policies, the Queen has to remain neutral to any political matters and this includes voting.

While the no-voting policy is strictly for the Queen, the other members of the Royal Family also choose to follow this rule.
No going to bed before the Queen: It is a well-known fact that Queen Elizabeth has some very peculiar rules. This particular rule is said to be the most hated.
Meghan has to stay awake and follow this rule while she stays at the Queen's residence and has to attend all the social functions and dinners along with her.


In this video segment adapted from NOVA, a team of historians, engineers, and trade experts recreate a medieval throwing machine called a trebuchet. To launch a projectile, a trebuchet utilizes the transfer of gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy. A massive counterweight at one end of a lever falls because of gravity, causing the other end of the lever to rise and release a projectile from a sling. As part of their design process, the engineers use models to help evaluate how well their designs will work.
In medieval times, one of the most fearsome weapons was a trebuchet—a powerful machine used to hurl projectiles. Combining the launching capabilities of a catapult and a sling, trebuchets were able to throw massive objects at high speeds and over great distances. Trebuchets were also more accurate than a basic catapult and more powerful than a simple sling; they could throw objects hundreds of pounds in weight to targets hundreds of yards away. During a siege, a trebuchet could be used to crumble castle walls by launching large rocks or to spread disease to the people inside the castle walls by tossing over dead animals.
Imagine what would happen on a seesaw (a simple lever) if a book were placed on one end and you were to jump on the other end—the book would go flying into the air. A trebuchet functions similarly, except that the pivot point of the lever is placed off-center (in this case, farther away from the load) to amplify the force that launches the projectile. The load, or object to be moved, is placed in a sling (composed of a pouch and two cords) attached to the long arm of the lever. A very heavy counterweight is attached to the short arm of the lever. When the counterweight falls, the long arm of the lever is raised very quickly into the air, pulling the sling up with it. As the sling swings into a vertical position, one end of the sling is unleashed, opening up the sling and releasing the load at a high velocity.
To put a trebuchet into its "cocked" position, a team of people use their energy to hoist the counterweight. When the counterweight is raised, it gains this energy as potential energy. In this case, the potential energy is gravitational potential energy—energy that results from the position of an object in a gravitational field. The amount of gravitational potential energy is dependent on both the weight of the object and its position, or height, above the ground. Since the counterweight in a trebuchet is very heavy, it has a great deal of potential energy.
While energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can change forms. The potential energy from the raised counterweight is transformed into kinetic energy—the energy of motion—as the counterweight is released and begins to fall. The downward motion of the counterweight then causes the sling to swing and the projectile to be released. The potential energy that was stored in the raised counterweight is transferred, in the form of kinetic energy, to the projectile, which is released at a high velocity.
Design a working model of a trebuchet and demonstrate the power of a Class 1 lever in this NOVA classroom activity .
Where does the potential energy in the lever arm come from?
Where is there potential energy throughout the loading, cocking, and releasing of the trebuchet? Where is there kinetic energy?
What evidence is there that energy is conserved?
Use these questions to create a simple assessment or video-based assignment with the Lesson Builder tool on PBS LearningMedia.

Uldis Tatarčuks has been appointed as the new Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of SIA Tet (formerly known as Lattelecom), the company announced July 9.
Since his long-serving predecessor departed under a shadow in December 2020, as reported by LSM at the time, Tatarčuks was the acting CEO and Chairman of the Board of SIA Tet, while before that he was a member of the Board and Chief Technology Officer of Tet for almost 10 years.
A top-line recuitment agency was brought in to help find a new CEO and Chairman from among the Baltics and Scandinavia, but in the end the decision was made to go with the man already in the job.
Klavs Vasks, Chairman of the Tet Council said: "At the end of the selection process, the Tet Council, representing the interests of both shareholders, unanimously decided to appoint Uldis Tatarčuks as Tet's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Management Board, and during the selection process demonstrated a strong vision of future development and its implementation in a company important for the Latvian economy and development."
Tatarčuks said: "Tet has always been a pioneer in introducing the latest technological solutions to Latvian society and business, and will certainly continue to do so, developing beyond Latvia."
Prior to working at Tet, Tatarčuks was at Citrus Solutions, G4S and Bite Latvija. He holds a Master's degree in Business Administration (MBA) from the Riga Business School and has been a member of the Board of the European Telecommunications IT Society (ETIS) since 2014.
The technology and entertainment company Tet is owned by the Latvian state (51%) and the Danish-registered subsidiary of Scandinavian tlecoms company Telia (49%).

Wonderful Mexico is a performance specially created to show the huge diversity of the Mexican folklore. In order to do this, we have chosen as sample the states of the Mexican Republic: Guerrero, Veracruz, Hidalgo, Jalisco and aztecas danses from Mexico state.
We have done a very detailed selection of music, costumes and dancing style of every one of these regions. By doing it, we're looking to preserve the original culture and trying to rescue our cultural heritage.
Miracle's weaver hands, is a performance created to pay homage to Mexican women as they have the difficult work of making their own clothes. During the whole performance, the audience will discover the magic hided behind every single garment. A real gift or forms and colours! At the same time the audience will appreciate the traditional music of each region. This parade is completed by a short description of the custom.
It is a pleasure to us to make people know and discover one more of all the wonderful things of our country, but overall, we feel proud of putting the customs on and being able to share with the audience this party plenty of life, colour and happiness.
