Founder or Freelancer: How to Succeed in Business as a Solo Act
By Sarah Brown February 22, 2019 05:25
Just because you've started a company — or gone freelance — doesn't mean you know anything about how to actually make it work. Sarah Brown gets advice from the pros on how to hone the hustle and set yourself up for success.

NEW YORK, United States — We are in the age of the entrepreneur, big and small. Whether starting a company or striking out as a solo act, people are doing business for themselves more and more, leaving corporate America or avoiding its confines altogether from the get-go. It's risky, it's rewarding. It requires persistent self-advocacy, savvy negotiation, collaboration, creativity, critical decision-making — constantly — and surrounding oneself with the right advisors. Just because you are talented at your craft doesn't mean you know anything about business (yet). Here, a group of entrepreneurs who have made it — and are making it, daily — weigh in on how to set yourself up for success in today's topsy-turvy, exciting, terrifying, and ever-changing climate. Consider it the new playbook, as written by the players.
1. Be Your Own Advocate
For anyone going into business for her or himself, you are now selling something: you. That can be an adjustment in itself: permanent sales-mode for many of the previously un-sales-y.
"You have to be your own self-advocate, and early on, with clarity," said Kim Vernon, who launched her strategic consulting firm, the Vernon Company, 12 years ago after serving as a vice president at Prada and chief marketing officer at Calvin Klein.
Be bold, communicate your worth and your services — and be able to back it up.
"A website is a really good tool to justify the work and your rate, and to give people a clear definition of what you do," said Jen Brill, founder and creative director of Brill Brill Studio, a creative agency that works with clients like Proenza Schouler and Nike. "Show your value and how you can elevate what a client is doing. There are a million people who can do it at any rate, and you are an expert in your field. Show case studies of your past work so they can say, 'she's done X and Y and Z for these brands, and look at the return.'"
You have to be your own self-advocate, and early on, with clarity.
When it comes to defending her rate during negotiations for brand collaborations and influencer programming, Jen Atkin — the celebrity hairstylist who founded Mane Addicts, a digital platform for the hair-obsessed, in 2014, and the hair care line Ouai in 2016 — approaches discussions like a lawyer preparing a case. "I will do the work and have the facts behind me," said Atkin, whose 2.8 million Instagram followers regularly see her styling clients Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid, and on vacation with friends Chrissy Teigen and John Legend.
"I will call and say, 'Here is my media value. I have looked at Tribe Dynamics and Dash Hudson. I know how much my posts are worth. If you would like to be part of it, let's talk about it.' Remind people in a positive way of your worth. You can't be afraid to do that," she said.
2. Make It Business
One of the biggest challenges of being a gun for hire is navigating the nuanced gulf between catching up over coffee, having a meeting (or two), and moving things to a place where you are getting paid for your time and your talent.
It would be nice if everything were as easy as just shouting Kate Moss's mantra, "No Fee, No Me" (literally the icing on her recent birthday cake). But, generally, before a real working relationship ensues, there is a prerequisite back-and-fourth with potential clients, almost like deciding if you want a second date where someone has to actually pay for dinner.
If you start to think, 'I need to be compensated for this time,' you probably do.
"Business development" is one way to characterise this period where broad ideas are exchanged and a relationship is explored, said Julie Gilhart, who left her role as fashion director at Barneys NY in 2011 for a stint advising Amazon, and now focuses her consulting business on sustainability and emerging talent. The thing is, when ideas are your currency, and your time is what you're selling, this "dating" period can get uncomfortable at a certain point.
"If you start to think, 'I need to be compensated for this time,' you probably do," said Gilhart. "It's setting a boundary — and you do have to set boundaries."
"There's a certain balance between showing up and putting in the time, showing a client you're inspired and that you care, and then walking away and leaving the rest up to them," said Brill. "If they want to make it official, they will."
3. Set Terms ASAP — and Get Them on Paper
So how does one gracefully set boundaries and move to the place of in fact being compensated for one's time, advice, and services? At the close of a productive exploratory meeting, immediately offer to send a proposal, said Richard Koenigsberg, CPA, a partner at Spielman Koenigsberg & Parker who advises clients across the media and entertainment industries. (Including me.)
This turns any conversation — no matter how casual — into real business. "The proposal implies that you need to be paid. And then they'll decide," he said. "You'll spend a lot less time spinning your wheels and people will respect you more when you set the terms of your engagement at the outset of your conversation."
Vernon views establishing a "scope of work" for any project as "the most essential tool," as it lays the groundwork for everything that follows. "You need to approach the client having a clear understanding of what's expected," she said. "As quickly as possible, get a scope of work together you both can edit. It usually means drafting it yourself, and who better to draft what you're going to do than you? You can insert your experience there. It gives you an advantage to say, 'I'm going to be able to do all these things,' and takes the ambiguity out of it. Really general scopes can cause confusion and missed expectations on one side or the other. When you're specific, what is not in the scope is very clear, and that's an advantage, also."
Setting a scope also helps determine the rate. "You can attach a dollar amount because you can tell how much time it's going to take and you know there's a baseline amount of work you're going to do," said Vernon. If a client pushes back on a proposed fee, "you start reducing the scope until you both feel comfortable that you'll have a certain level of results and time," she said.
When determining your rate, look at the industry standard and consider where you fall on the experience spectrum and what you are bringing to the table. Also, ask trusted colleagues for advice. "You don't want to price yourself out of something, where you're so far above it that they turn around and hire someone else," cautions Vernon.
The important thing is that before beginning any work, "you need to have things buttoned up," said Koenigsberg. Contracts are helpful in that they set clear terms, to avoid surprises. For example, "If you're doing something potentially open-ended or over the course of time," said Vernon, "you've got to structure your agreement to address those points: If you go beyond the scope, it's written in stone."
To be selling your own expertise is not as easy as having a big brand name behind you.
Contracts cover your bases to help ensure you are not being taken advantage of, even unintentionally. "Many times I find myself in a company's business deck," said Gilhart. "You should know that — if someone is putting your name and picture and bio in their deck. It's like you're blessing that project, in a sense. You should include that in your contract: Your name, etc. is only used with your permission." Indeed, your own equity is part of the value you bring to a project, and it is part of what a client is paying for, especially if they wish to use your halo for their own marketing purposes and to establish legitimacy in a particular area.
4. Get Comfortable Talking About Money
This can be the most awkward part of negotiating on one's own behalf. Talking actual dollars can feel grubby and inelegant (at first), but it shouldn't, and it's something that we — women, especially — need to get over. Is there anything else in the world you would attempt to buy and then be surprised when the seller brought up the price?
"To be selling your own expertise is not as easy as having a big brand name behind you," conceded Vernon, but, "that part about feeling like you're sticking your hand out — that's the wrong mindset. It takes realising that the world you're in, you're for hire."
In addition to being able to simply broach the topic of rate structure without cringing, becoming truly versed in finance gives one the tools to negotiate creatively and with confidence.
Even in a post-Lean In, post-Girlboss moment, it's not unusual today for women to feel uncomfortable talking about money. In many cases, it's just not how we were brought up. "I think about imposter syndrome pretty much all the time. It's so real, and figuring out how to neutralise it is imperative," said Moj Mahdara, an entrepreneur who built and sold two companies prior to co-founding Beautycon Media in 2014.
Beyond all the PR halo moments of feminism, it's time to do the work of understanding,
"Men have had generations of institutional knowledge passed down to each other; they have cultural references and codes," explained Mahdara. "We are the first true generation of women who are actually trying to achieve entrepreneurial sameness as our male counterparts. Sadly, there is such a lack of financial literacy between us. It's cool we're all empowered now, but what happens when the first thing we ask for doesn't work, when what you want isn't available? There is a male literacy of being able to work through it."
"Beyond all the PR halo moments of feminism, it's time to do the work of understanding," said Mahdara. "It's one thing to ask for what you want, it's another thing to negotiate from a position of understanding," she said. "Guys like to negotiate — it's fun for them. We have to decide that if we're going to be in business, we should enjoy the process, too, instead of it being miserable for us. We have to talk to each other, beyond the broad strokes, about the technical execution of it all. If someone is going to offer you options, do you even know what this stuff means?"
5. Understand Equity
"Many times, start-ups will offer equity because they use their stock as currency rather than having to come up with the cash to pay you," said Koenigsberg. When accepting equity — as part of an advisor or board member agreement, or in combination with a reduced cash fee or salary — here's what to know, and what to ask:
Very simply, "you've got to equate that equity to something," said Koenigsberg. "When a number of shares are offered, you have to know the value of those shares. What percentage of the company do they represent? What is the value of those shares today when granted to me, and how does that compare to the value of the service I'm offering? If it's a start-up, the value is close to zero, so do I think the company has potential; am I willing to roll the dice? What, ultimately, do I think they'll be worth? Shares don't pay your rent initially."
Studying a company's capitalisation table — the schedule of all of the shares that have been issued, the various classes of stock, and the value of cash investments that have been made — helps provide this picture.
"You need to ask for the cap table so you understand what the shares are valued at, how many shares are out there, and where you stand in the waterfall of payment," explained Koenigsberg. I.e. if the company sells for a certain ballpark amount some day, will your slice be enough to buy you a house — or a pack of gum? "Any time you're granted shares you should be getting the cap table," he said.
6. Build a Team of Advisors Around You
In Mike Monteiro's viral career advice lecture "Fuck You, Pay Me" (…Google it), the San Francisco-based graphic designer declares, "you are at the point that you need a lawyer when you have decided to be a professional."
You want to bring on your advisory team as early as possible.
Indeed, part of being a good businessperson is recognising that there are even better businesspeople out there, specialised in their given field and armed with expertise and experience you do not have. They are guardian angels — on retainer.
"You want to bring on your advisory team as early as possible because you can pay now, or pay later," said Koenigsberg. "The cost of not structuring yourself properly at the outset far outweighs the cost you will incur."
"What's helped me most is having a good business manager," said Gilhart. "You need somebody to be that nuts-and-bolts person. A business manager will help with the numbers, put you on a budget and advise you about what you're doing with your own money. They understand how much you need to live on, how much you need to save, and do you want to take two vacations a year? Lawyers are great and you need them, but a good business manager can read a contract and is with you daily, or part-time. That's been invaluable."
Outside advisors can also take certain responsibilities off of your plate, so you are free to focus on that which you excel, and enjoy. Brill, for example, engages IMG to handle her firm's financial negotiations with clients. "It never feels sexy when you're talking about creative and your job is to inspire, and then you have to discuss money," she said. "It makes relationships really complicated, bogs me down and keeps me from the creative. I like having that not in my space."
Hire people who will protect you.
Koenigsberg compares the outsourcing of certain services to the billing person at a doctor's office: "When you go to the doctor, the doctor never discusses the cost of the service; you meet the businessperson in the office once you've decided to use him or her. You are now the doctor and that's the part you are going to concentrate on, and you're going to turn it over to your advisors to discuss the business terms," he said.
"Hire people who will protect you," said Atkin, who credits her lawyer, agent, and business manager with "working tirelessly to make sure I'm getting what's fair."
Once you've got your advisors together, introduce them. "If you can get them where they know each other, that's amazing," said Gilhart. "When something comes up, you have a team you can talk with together. That's given me a real feeling of security."
7. Like Who You're Working With
"Before I go into business with someone, I want to make sure I really, really like them and that there is some thread to the same values," said Gilhart. "I only want to work with people who are going to have a positive impact on the planet. It may be in a big way or a small way, or that they have potential. You have to set some criteria for yourself. It's about searching for the quality of people, not just the names of the companies, that are asking you to do business. If you don't have like-minded values, every step is going to be a lot harder."
When something doesn't feel right, said Brill, don't be afraid to walk away: "I heard something the other day that really resonated with me: 'Go where it's warm.' If I get a vibe I don't like, I generally don't gravitate toward those projects," she said. "I'm really transparent with my collaborators and I expect the same. A lot of things happen between A and Z. It's important that everyone gets what they need and that you are upfront and honest about it."
If you don't have like-minded values, every step is going to be a lot harder.
That goes for partners within your own business, too. When fashion editors Meredith Melling and Valerie Macaulay left Vogue in the fall of 2013 to start their consulting and styling business, La Marque (they would go on to launch the direct-to-consumer apparel company, La Ligne, in 2016), they felt confident forming a business partnership because they already knew how to work together.
"We were colleagues before we were friends," said Melling. "We had experienced each other in the workplace before, so I knew a lot of Valerie's strengths, and they compensated for some of my weaknesses, and vice versa. Going out on your own is a massive undertaking. It can ruin friendships unless you approach it the right way: 'This is not about our friendship; this is about our business.' We can be on different sides of an issue, come to resolution, and then go have a drink."
8. Keep Evolving
A final word of encouragement to all embarking upon business ventures large and small: "All the rules are being broken now," said Brill, brightly. "Creativity is being found everywhere and it's far more democratic. The fuddy-duddies who are masters have competition; all the rule-breakers can do something special. I'm not scared. I'm inspired by what's happening," she said. "The things I like — my taste, my collaborators — are constantly changing. As long as you're not sticking to one form and you keep evolving, you will do just fine in this climate."

Q: How do I boot into a basic graphics view? How do I start a session that will give me he very basic graphics or even just terminal view?
I would like to start applications just by typing their name.
I would like to avoid the gui stuff as much as possible and use application only by need.
Is that possible at all?
Thanks,
Akis

A: There are light-weight minimalistic window managers such as xmonad, ratpoison, awesome, wmii, dwm, Ion, etc.
Fluxbox and Openbox are heavier than the above mentioned but still very light.

A: Ctrl+Alt+F1 will bring you to a pure terminal environment. Depending on your configuration, F2 up to F6 will also do it.
Note: You will not be able to run any programs that require a GUI in these modes.
To come back into the graphical environment, press Ctrl+Alt+F7. This is also implementation dependant.

A: Note that you can press the dash key (the windows key) and immediately begin to type the name of your application. This is to satisfy your petition "to start applications just by typing their name". Also, Alt-F2 allow you to do the same, but the intention is to write a command.

A: Create a new desktop session file in /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/
[GNOME Session]
Name=Terminal
RequiredComponents=gnome-terminal
RequiredProviders=windowmanager;
DefaultProvider-windowmanager=metacity
DefaultProvider-notifications=notify-osd
DesktopName=GNOME

In the login manager, change session to 'Terminal'. manpage
Create a new .desktop file in /usr/share/xsessions/
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Terminal
Comment=icanhazterminal
Exec=gnome-terminal
TryExec=gnome-terminal
Icon=
Type=Application
X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=gnome-session-3.0

Note that you can pass gnome-terminal the --maximize or --full-screen parameters. You can also use xterm or uxterm or some other terminal emulator instead of gnome-terminal.

A: When the computer is booting, hold down the Shift button.
GRUB (the bootloader) will now appear.
Chose to boot into recovery mode.

APC did not expel me ―Jibrin
By Jacob Segun Olatunji and Kolawole Daniel - Abuja On Jun 15, 2017
Rep. Abdulmumuni Jibrin
Suspended former Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Appropriation, Hon Abdulmumin Jibrin has denied report making the round that, he has been expelled from the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Hon. Jibrin in a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja on Thursday said that such report should be discarded, saying that, there was no iota of truth in the report.

The statement reads in part: "my attention has been drawn to a false claim attributed to some mischievous impersonators that I've been expelled from my party, the All Progressives Congress, at the Local Government branch.
"This report, I've gathered, came from a dubious character and known fraudster who is neither the chairman of my party at the local government level nor a part of the party executive at the state level. The party is not even aware of this impersonation making the rounds in the media.
"This is yet another round of character assassinations from career political antagonisers who are perpetually threatened by our advocacy for transparency in public service and political leadership.
"Recall that I honored the invitation of the EFCC in a bid to shed light on the cases of corruption perpetrated by some principal officers of the house of representatives, despite dissuasions by these saboteurs of my party's change agenda and stand against corruption.
"The initiators of this false claim of my expulsion by my party are hired hacks engaged by some politicians in Abuja in continuation of their futile bids to frustrate my anti-corruption campaigns.
"I wish to remind the public, and especially the media, that this report did not originate from my party, the APC. I have a cordial relationship with my party, and we have been working hand in hand to actualise our agenda for a better Nigeria", the statement concluded.

Privilege and Entitlement Unionize at Harvard University

By Leyla Pirnie
Published December 6, 2019 at 2:56pm
Students of Harvard University are once again showcasing a culture of entitlement that only the most privileged of students could possibly display.
In an unnecessary call to action, The Harvard Graduate Students Union-United Auto Workers is going on strike to demand that its administration pay student workers more, provide them with better health benefits, and give them better protections against discrimination and harassment.
It's unconscionable that this student-led labor union decided to unionize in the first place, especially considering Harvard's willingness to work towards negotiation. Considering the facts, it's clear that this is purely a cry for attention, not action.
For the past year, Harvard's administration has held more than 50 meetings with the union in an effort to negotiate reasonable terms for the demands.
The union, however, would have you believe that the university has done nothing to quell concerns. On their website, union members threatened that "on December 3rd, if the Harvard administration does not agree to a fair contract … thousands of striking students … will head out to the picket lines."
Having been more than fair, Harvard has set out proposals to negotiate the union's demands. Negotiations, however, don't meet the standards of union members. In their eyes, if they aren't getting every single thing they want, they'll be dissatisfied with the outcome.
Francesca Bellei, a Ph.D. candidate in comparative literature, claimed, "We don't get paid to write a PhD, we get paid to teach – so why shouldn't we demand our basic rights as workers? We deserve protection from sexual harassment and discrimination, a fair workload and more transparent hiring practices, and the same health insurance staff and faculty at Harvard already have, because #WeWorkHere!"
Not only is it laughable that Harvard Ph.D. candidates genuinely feel that they're being mistreated, but it's also sad because it shows how entitled younger generations have become, despite their ability to enjoy a quality life that previous generations could have only dreamed of.
Bellei calls for "basic rights" that guarantee student-worker protection, less laborious workloads and health insurance benefits that are better than those of other students. Essentially, she wants to get more and work less.
Do you think Harvard will give in to the demands of the union?
While lighter workloads accompanied by better benefits sound great, I have to wonder if these students even considered what they were getting themselves into when applying for Ph.D. programs — at Harvard nonetheless.
What's equally nonsensical is the claim that these students don't have protections in place for discrimination and harassment. Harvard has a robust Title IX office with more than 50 specially trained coordinators, as well as several other resources provided by the university that target students' specific needs.
The solution proposed by the union is to have labor arbitrators acting as third-party mediators. While the administration was quick to propose solutions to other demands, it pushed back against implementing labor arbitrators.
Furthermore, arbitrators don't have the authority to impose sanctions. This is a blatantly ineffective solution to a problem that already has a working process in place.
Another complaint came from Juliana Ramirez, a Ph.D. candidate in the history of art and architecture, who said, "we need subsidized child-care, dependent's healthcare, and rent. Nobody should have to put their family and their mental and financial health as collateral for earning a Ph.D. at Harvard, much less women and mothers who have historically fought so much to get to where they are today."

News flash: Earning a degree from any school takes a toll on mental and financial health; it's the price one pays to receive an education in hopes of achieving a better future.
Students apply to these programs knowing full well what will be compensated and what won't be in terms of health coverage. It's laid out in plain sight on the university's website.
They get access to internal medicine, a comprehensive insurance plan, fully subsidized mental health care and much more. If students were dissatisfied with health care that many Americans would be happy to have, they shouldn't have considered applying to these programs.
It's a shame that these students think they're being financially oppressed, considering that Ph.D. students receive at least four years of guaranteed tuition grants, annual stipends and fully subsidized health coverage.
Not only are these financial benefits significant, but Harvard students also have the opportunity to graduate from a top-tier school that practically guarantees a healthy post-graduate salary.
This strike is clearly part of an elaborate and illegitimate movement that for some reason is being taken seriously when it is in the least bit serious.
These students have unparalleled opportunities, but they refuse to acknowledge their advantages in life because it's "offensive" to have any form of privilege. With that in mind, they form unions to combat a concocted assertion that they're being mistreated, despite the fact that they have every resource possible at the snap of their fingers.
They're out of touch with reality. They're the very embodiment of the children in grocery stores wailing in dissatisfaction when their mothers won't allow them to have another piece of chocolate.
It's time to stop giving in to these demands — to stop appeasing the crying five-year-old in aisle six. Harvard is right to push back on these demands, as it shouldn't allow petulant behavior like this to set the stage for its policies.

Web Design Trends in 2023 and How to Use Them?
in Articles published on 12/29/2022 leave a reply
Web Design Trends in 2023 need to follow. Millions of people around the world now have their own platform online. Not all websites are created equal, however, and while some may think that good design is all about fancy aesthetics, this couldn't be further from the truth. Indeed.
Top-Notch Dezigns' Derek Robinson explains how different aspects of design play an important role in how your audience experiences your content. The different design elements on your website should make it (and you) credible and trustworthy. And to do this, it's important to cover the basics, especially for those building their very own website or who would at least like to have a hand in the design process.
Respected web developer Brad Hussey has a number of useful courses on Udemy that teach the basics that you need to learn about to create an engaging website, which includes using Adobe Photoshop, sketching professional wireframes, and even creating custom animations.
Web Design Trends- Table of Content
Micro-Interactions
Thumb-Friendly Navigation
While you don't have to be an expert in these areas, it's useful to understand the basics before going into the latest design trends, or at the very least, be able to express what you want from your designer.
Now, once you've got those covered, let's dive into the web design trends of 2023 and how you can use them, too.
Smiley face Envato's Anna Lucas explains that micro-interactions are a good way to keep your audience engaged, but what is a micro-interaction? This is a single task-based interaction that users have with a device or interface. A good real-world example of this would be the snooze button on your alarm.
Websites use this via Facebook's responsive react functions or Twitter's animated retweet button. Now, what makes for good micro-interactions? Ironically, good micro-interactions are ones that you barely notice. Effective micro-interactions are intuitive and do not require explanations or instructions, being unabrasive as possible while still keeping your audience engaged.
The key here is simplicity, which you can achieve through constant testing. Remember that attention to detail is what sets exceptional websites apart, so go through the site map of your website and take note of every little experience a user will have on it.
Smiley face Mobile browsing has completely taken over how we consume media. Statista details that 52.2% of all website traffic worldwide in 2018 was generated through mobile phones, a number that is rising every day.
This is why more and more websites have been optimised for mobile, which AIS Technolabs' Sunny Chawla explains requires you to build a concise version of your site that has all the important parts without losing the identity and style of the original.
Alongside this, designers are looking towards optimising mobile browsing via thumb-friendly navigation. To begin, remember that thumbs are less precise than cursors, and it is now the web designer's responsibility to make up for this and adjust accordingly.
Try moving menus to the bottom of the screen for better thumb accessibility, and making links and buttons larger for thumb use.
Smiley face Chatbots were once seen as a mere gimmick, but 2023 has seen more and more people turn to chatbots as a way to enhance their website's user experience. For beginners, free chatbot services such as SnatchBot can be an invaluable addition to your website, as they specialise in building chatbots for websites and other platforms like Messenger, Slack, and Twilio.
The most important thing to keep in mind when designing your chatbot is the user experience. Make sure the chatbot is as welcoming as possible, all while contextualising how this bot can help users with their queries. You can do this by giving the users a set of quick responses to frame interactions, minimising the effort needed to express their concerns and find solutions for them.

foreign ministry mallorca missing tourist Spain storm tourists
Authorities Expand Search for Missing Hungarians on Mallorca, says Foreign Ministry
Contrary to Spanish and Hungarian press reports, a search for two Hungarian tourists who had gone missing on the island of Mallorca last week has been expanded, rather than suspended, a state secretary of the Hungarian foreign ministry said on Tuesday.
Spanish authorities who have been conducting an intensive search for the two Hungarians since Oct. 23 are now inspecting a larger area in the ocean with currents considered underneath, Tamás Menczer said on his Facebook page.
He confirmed that police have recovered a body, noting, however, that according to official information it was certain that it was not that of either of the missing Hungarians.
A local newspaper said last weekend that two Hungarian siblings, an 18-year-old man and a 30-year-old woman, had been reported missing from their hotel of the Cala d'Or resort on the south-east of the island.
The identities of the two have not been officially confirmed by the authorities.
The report came two days after witnesses saw that in stormy weather two people were swept into the sea by a huge wave.
Last Wednesday, there was torrential rain on the Balearic Islands and Catalonia. Two people died and six have been registered as missing.

Christianity and other religions investigates Christianity's relationship with other world religions, and the differences and similarities.
Director Of Studies Of New Religions Reports That 90000 Christians Were Killed This Year Making Christianity The Most Persecuted Religion In The World.
The Orthodox Church and Rabbinic Judaism are thought to have had better relations historically than Judaism and either Roman Catholic or Protestant Christianity.
The Catholic Church has been heavily involved in the ecumenical movement since the Second Vatican Council (1961–1965).
In the field of comparative religion, many scholars, academics, religious figures have looked at the relationships between Hinduism and other religions.
Christian-Vodou relations have been marked by syncretism and conflicts, especially in Haiti, but less so in Louisiana and elsewhere.


This area of inquiry promotes the study of all areas relating to the intersections of culture and media.
We welcome proposals which take up one or more of these fields or related fields of inquiry. If there something we are not listing, but you feel falls under this area, please inform us and we will consider it for inclusion on our webpage. More importantly, submit a panel proposal.
We are open to panel and joint-panel proposals from scholars of all ranks. Additionally, we encourage session formats beyond the traditional panel, including but not limited to roundtables, creative sessions, and sessions with innovative uses of technology.
Please note that those working in particular languages may want to direct their proposals accordingly (for example, see the French and Francophone area, which welcomes proposals in literature, culture, and visual arts). If you have a question about which area is most appropriate for submission, please contact the relevant area directors.


Bathrooms. We put extra effort will into removing hard water stains from fixtures, tubs and sinks. We also frequently find build-up around the bottom of toilets, faucets, and other fixtures that must be removed. Shower doors may have lime, rust, and hard water spots. We take the entire room back to a clean starting point so in the future, regular cleaning will keep everything shiny and deposit free.
Kitchen. We clean the small cracks and crevices in the kitchen that some residential cleaning services overlook. The tops of cabinets, cupboards and refrigerators are places that often go undusted or uncleaned for long periods of time. We find grease and fingerprints on most surfaces, especially stove tops, refrigerator doors, and small appliances. A good overall cleaning is essential to remove the hidden dirt, grease and even unseen spilled food that need to be thoroughly cleaned up.
Living rooms and bedrooms. Home owners are often too busy to do a thorough cleaning job. As people get busy, they sweep and vacuum what's visible, but they tend to ignore vacuuming and sweeping behind or under furniture. Dusting is often a task that homeowners leave for "when there is time." We clean window sills, bookshelves, baseboards, ceiling fans, and other furniture that may have a long-term build-up of thick dust.
Hallways and entryways. We clean these spaces that have build-up around baseboards and edges. It is important to keep these areas clean as dust and dirt is tracked in from hallways and entryways.
Removing the build-up of soil and grime is essential before we can get a home to looking its best. Once the home has had a careful cleaning it will be faster and easier for our team to go in and clean on the schedule agreed upon. Getting back to a basic starting point is important so that we have a clean slate to work with. Beginning at the starting point we can make sure that every time we clean, your home will shine and you will be a satisfied customer!

Wang Foh-San (também Wang Fu-shan; Xangai,  ou  – Xangai, ) foi um físico chinês, que estudou e obteve um doutorado na Universidade de Leipzig, orientado por Werner Heisenberg

Vida e obra
Wang veio de uma família rica e teve muito boa formação escolar. Estudou inicialmente na Universidade de Guanghua em Xangai, onde foi inspirado por um professor de matemática que estudou na Alemanha para lá ir estudar. Devido à crise econômica global e à hiperinflação na República de Weimar o dólar chinês era tão forte que Wang pôde viajar para a Alemanha em 1929 com o apoio da família. Foi inicialmente para Göttingen, a fim de estudar física com Max Born. Decidiu no entanto indicá-lo para o Instituto de Física Teórica em Leipzig, sob a direção de Werner Heisenberg, que era mais adequado aos estudos de Wang. Wang estudou lá, com uma interrupção devido a uma tuberculose, de 1929 a 1940. Nos últimos anos também começou a lecionar.

Jing Cheng Qu, que foi seu aluno de 1980 a 1983 na Universidade Fudan, escreve que ele, seis anos mais novo que Heisenberg, tinha um contato com ele em círculos familiares como se fosse um irmão.

Em 1939 completou seu doutorado, que publicou em 1940 com o título Über die Bremsung sehr energiereicher Protonen und Neutronen durch Ausstrahlung von Mesotronen. Seu trabalho sobre as partículas hoje conhecidas como mésons coloca-se entre a previsão teórica de Hideki Yukawa e a nomeação de mesotrons em 1935 (Prêmio Nobel de 1949) e a descoberta de Cecil Frank Powell (junto com outros) do primeiro méson, o píon, em 1947 (Prêmio Nobel 1950). O trabalho de Wang sustentou experimentalmente a teoria de Yukawa, embora ele superestimasse a energia do méson com 109 a 1011 elétron-volts, em vez dos 1,39 * 108 elétron-volts (para o pion) por um fator de 10 a 1.000, 7 anos antes da partícula ser detectada.

Em 1940 Wang deixou a Alemanha e retornou para a China, onde ocupou inicialmente a cátedra do Instituto de Física da Universidade de Guanghua e mais tarde a cátedra do Instituto de Física da Universidade de Tongji. Após a Segunda Guerra Mundial Wang se preocupou com o abastecimento de Heisenberg e sua mulher, enviando-lhes pacotes de comida de Xangai. Quando a China reorganizou seu sistema universitário em 1952, Wang tornou-se catedrático do Instituto de Física da Universidade Fudan, onde foi professor até sua aposentadoria em 1985. Embora não tenha continuado suas pesquisas sobre física desde seu retorno, é-lhe atribuída uma contribuição muito grande para a formação em física na China. Mesmo depois do fim da Revolução Cultural na China em 1979, continuou ensinando física. Na década de 1980 Wang trabalhou com a pesquisa sobre a história da física, tendo Heisenberg como tema principal.

Quebec City to Key West, now San Diego to Vancouver.
Hello everyone. We've made our way out to the west coast and are about to cross the Oregon border on our way up to Canada.
We've had some great adventures over this past month at world famous national parks including Joshua Tree, Yosemite, Sequoia, King's Cannon, Redwoods and Great Sand Dunes. We've also been able to spend some time with long lost friends in Colorado, California, Arizona, and New Mexico.
Here's a few pics from a few of our favorite moments over these past couple months. Miss you all.
This entry was posted in Airstream by thehaverherd. Bookmark the permalink.
Looks like a lot of fun & interesting places. Crystal is about to have Genny's first birthday. We made a fun cruise to the Western CARIBBEAN. Looking forward to seeing y'all again.
I love that you guys are still trucking!
Thanks for the update. Bummed that we just missed you as we'll be out in Boise on June 1st. I loved all the pictures you guys attached.


The next six months, from Pearl Harbor to the Battle of Midway - a dark time during which the Japanese scored victory after victory - this small band of aviators saw almost constant deployment, intense carrier combat, and fearsome casualties. Many were killed by enemy Zero fighters, antiaircraft fire, or deadly crash landings in the Pacific, while others were captured and spent years in POW camps. Yet the Enterprise's Dauntless crews would be the first to strike an offensive blow against Japanese installations in the Marshall Islands, would be the first to sink a Japanese warship, and would shepherd the Doolittle Raiders' bombing of Tokyo.
Not until Midway, though, would Dauntless crews get the chance to settle the score. In June 1942, Japan mobilized the best of its Navy to draw out the smaller American carrier fleet for a final showdown designed to destroy the U.S. Navy once and for all. What they didn't anticipate was the gutsy dive-bombing pilots and gunners whose courage and skill would change the course of World War II.
Drawing on dozens of new interviews and oral histories, author Stephen L. Moore brings to life inspiring stories of individual sacrifice and bravery - and the sweeping saga of one of America's greatest triumphs.
What made the experience of listening to Pacific Payback the most enjoyable?
A well researched account of the aviators who became the tip of the spear for the revenge of Pearl Harbor. This book takes you along each piloted mission following the surprise Japanese attack to the Battle of Midway. Want to know every detail and conversation these aviators experienced? It's all here!
If you could sum up Pacific Payback in three words, what would they be?
What was one of the most memorable moments of Pacific Payback?
Great narration, easy to listen to, hard to stop. Stunning story, wonderful bios of the sailors and their stories.
Would you try another book from Stephen L. Moore and/or Don Hagen?
Depends on topic but probably not. I found that the author seemed to repeat passages or overuse an adjective several times in a short span and this detracted from the performance.
Historical, so no surprises. Drove the point home as to what a task the allies had ahead of them.
Would you be willing to try another one of Don Hagen's performances?
No. I found the narrator ill-matched to the substance of the book, however. The voice is pleasant but lacked the emotion that went along with the adrenaline and terror of battle. Very matter-of-fact. I might suggest reading this book versus listening.
Could you see Pacific Payback being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
The book contained a number of very interesting accounts of the 1942 Pacific battles. It outlined how ill-prepared the US was from the perspective of the Navy and the pilots.
Very detailed bordering at times on tedious. Recitation of lists of names tiring. Confusion in use of USN nomenclature. "Naval Aviator" instead of combat air crewman for enlisted radio operators/gunners for example. Would have benefited by an edit by a Navy pilot and/or a combat air crewman. But a good read for a detailed report on the valiant aircrew who gave their all at Midway.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is a great tribute to the Dauntless crews of the first 6 months of the war.
The Pacific Theater of WWII is my favorite history read. Of course, the story never changes, but the efforts of the authors to research and interview adds details and different perspectives of various actions. I was happy to listen to the audiobook as I read the print copy given me. I found a few issues with the narration as some paragraphs were omitted and a few errors made with numbers. Also the audio gave Nimitz the position in prewar Hawaii rather than Kimmel. That's a rather large error.
The writer did so well, though, giving details I was unaware about the carrier planes. I always enjoy learning more. This author had access to diaries of the servicemen and interviews of them and their families. Future authors will not have such opportunities for interviews as the Greatest Generation are nearly all gone from this Earth to a greater place.
I was privileged to have been born 2 years after Pearl and named after "Dugout Doug "McArthur.

Let's assume you knew your child was dating someone, but you only found out their name and age by snooping. Child refuses to speak to you as you're 'uncool'. Admitting to snooping means child will find another means of communication with their special friend and it might be harder for you to keep tabs on what was going on.

The literature on father absence is frequently criticized for its use of cross-sectional data and methods that fail to take account of possible omitted variable bias and reverse causality. We review studies that have responded to this critique by employing a variety of innovative research designs to identify the causal effect of father absence, including studies using lagged dependent variable models, growth curve models, individual fixed effects models, sibling fixed effects models, natural experiments, and propensity score matching models.
Our assessment is that studies using more rigorous designs continue to find negative effects of father absence on offspring well-being, although the magnitude of these effects is smaller than what is found using traditional cross-sectional designs. These findings are of interest to family sociologists and family demographers because of what they tell us about family structures and family processes; they are also of interest to scholars of inequality and mobility because of what they tell us about the intergenerational transmission of disadvantage.
The literature on father absence has been criticized for its use of cross-sectional data and methods that fail to account for reverse causality, for omitted variable bias, or for heterogeneity across time and subgroups. Indeed, some researchers have argued that the negative association between father absence and child well-being is due entirely to these factors.

Often affecting members of a family who have been separated for most of their lives – usually due to adoption – it is something that a person can feel great shame about, while being unable to control their feelings. The term was coined by a woman called Barbara Gonyo years ago, when she felt an overwhelming sense of sexual desire after being reunited with her birth son, Mitch, who was adopted as a baby.
Although there are a lot of unknowns about GSA – why it affects some people and not others, primarily – it is accepted that it does happen. Even though it feels pretty gross to hear about. Which is why this interview – with an year-old girl who is now engaged to her own biological father , after not having seen him for 12 years – makes for some pretty uncomfortable reading. My parents had me when they were 18 — they met in high school and I was conceived on prom night.
They were serious for about six months but broke up while my mom was still pregnant with me. My dad wasn't there when I was born. I think my mom's psychological problems meant the relationship never really worked out. She has bipolar disorder and some other mental health issues.

Back in the day, college football had its beginning on November 6, 1869, when Rutgers College and the College of New Jersey (now known as Princeton University) matched up at College Field in New Brunswick, New Jersey to play the first game. Twenty five years later, it found its way to Fayetteville with the formation of the Cardinals under a full time Latin professor and part time coach John Clinton Futrall.
Their first season consisted of playing Fort Smith High School in two games (winning both 42-0 and 38-0) and traveling on Monday, November 26 by train to play the Longhorns of the University of Texas in Austin. Having won their first two games by large margins, the Cardinals surely felt that they would be as lucky in this game. However, their luck had run out as they lost before a crowd of 1,500 who paid a total of $700 to watch Arkansas go down in defeat by a score of 54-0. Luckily there were few Cardinal fans present. Thus was born one of the greatest rivalries in college football.
The Arkansas-Texas rivalry had grown from the beginning season and culminated at its peak on December 6th of the 100th year of college football. When #1 Texas would again play #2 Arkansas in the "Game of the Century" (15-14 loss). No one on that first team would ever imagine a matchup like this one.
This month I received a comment from Paul Campbell who is the great nephew of LeRoy (corrected by Paul to be Lee Roy) Campbell. Campbell was a tackle and one of the original 14 Cardinals in 1894. From this email I decided that this would be a good hawg-tales and so now I'm going to pass along some of the GOLDEN information with you that he shared with me.
Campbell was born in Van Buren on December 6, 1874 (significant month and day in Hog football history) and died 92 years later on July 31, 1966, in Sikeston, MO as the last living member of the 1894 team. Had he lived for three more years he would have celebrated his birthday on the 100th year of college football, #1 playing #2 in the "Game of the Century" with Arkansas versus Texas, and the longest living member of the original 14.
Sadly, Campbell is not listed on the roster of the 1896 football team picture. However, the University has indicated that the 1896 team picture is the earliest one that they have for the football program.There are no pictures for the 1894 or 1895 teams.
"...the last living member of the 1894 team."
As best as I can determine, Campbell may have graduated in the 1895 class, which by the way, is missing from Senior Walk. However, he is listed on the 1894 team roster, but not on the 1895 team which leads me to believe that he may have graduated in the spring of 1895. Because of this, I was not able to get a picture of him since the earliest Cardinal yearbook that the University has is the 1897 issue. Although he only played for one year, Campbell was a very significant part of the team that became the foundation of what is now the present day football program. Thanks, Paul for leading me down this path!
