Present: HONORABLE BERNICE D. SIEGAL Justice Motion Date: 3/25/14 Motion Seq. No.: 5 The following papers numbered 1 to 9 read on this motion for an order to reconsider and leave to reargue this court's decision of January 23, 2014, pursuant to CPLR 2221, motion to seeking change in decision based on previously overlooked, misapprehended or not offered facts or evidence.

Order to Show Cause - Affidavits-Exhibits
Affirmation in Opposition
Upon the foregoing papers, it is hereby ordered that the motion is resolved as follows:
Defendant, Nick Papaspiridakos ("Defendant" or "Papaspiridakos") moves by order to show cause for an Order pursuant to CPLR §2221 for reargument of the decision of this court dated January 23, 2014. In addition, Defendant seeks an order of dismissal pursuant to CPLR 3211 based on documentary evidence and based on the fact that the matter has not gone to trial for two years.
For the reasons set forth below, Defendant's motion to reargue and to dismiss is denied in it's entirety.
On January 17, 2012, plaintiff St. Paul's (St. Paul's) commenced this action by way of an Emergency Order to Show Cause seeking a preliminary injunction barring defendant Nick Papaspiridakos, a former student at St. Paul's, from entering St. Paul's campuses or from communicating with the school's faculty members or employees as a result of defendant's threats and harassment to St. Paul's faculty and staff, including his admission that he harbored thoughts about shooting several of those faculty and staff members.
On January 17, 2012, plaintiff and defendant entered into a so-ordered stipulation as a result of defendant's repeated threats and harassment of St. Paul's faculty, staff, and students. Paragraph 1 of the so-ordered stipulation provides that defendant agreed "not to enter the leased premises of Staten Island and Queens campuses of St. Paul's School of Nursing." Paragraph 2 of the so-ordered stipulation provides that defendant agreed "not to enter the floor on which the Queens leased premises are located." Paragraph 3 of the so-ordered stipulation provides that defendant agreed "not to initiate communication with faculty, staff, employees or students of St. Paul's School of Nursing." Paragraph 4 of the so-ordered stipulation provides that defendant agreed "not to harass, annoy or otherwise threaten the security of the faculty, staff, employees or students of St. Paul's School of Nursing." Paragraph 5 of the so-ordered stipulation provides that "defendant may communicate with faculty, staff, employees or students who initiate contact with him."
On February 17, 2012, St. Paul's sent a cease and desist letter to defendant with respect to defendant's continued harassment and intimidation of St. Paul's faculty and staff. On March 29, 2012, St. Paul's sent a second cease and desist letter to defendant to immediately cease and desist from any further conduct in violation of the so-ordered stipulation.
Plaintiff subsequently filed with this court an emergency order to show cause for contempt, pursuant to CPLR §5104 and Judiciary Law §§753(A) and 773, seeking an order finding defendant in contempt for his refusal and/or willful neglect to obey the so-ordered stipulation; imposing a fine upon defendant in the amount of plaintiff's costs and expenses, including attorney's fees, in bringing the order to show cause; compelling compliance with the so-ordered stipulation; requiring that defendant not come within 100 yards of St. Paul's campuses or the homes of current or former St. Paul's faculty and staff members; and requiring that defendant not initiate communications with any relative, neighbor, friend, associate or acquaintance of any current or former St. Paul's faculty or staff members.
This court conducted a contempt hearing on the issue of whether the defendant violated the so-ordered stipulation by calling, by emailing, and by writing letters to St. Paul's faculty and staff, by posting comments on his public Facebook page about St. Paul's faculty and staff, by sending Facebook friend requests to St. Paul's faculty and staff, and by protesting and by handing out flyers outside of St. Paul's campus.
By memorandum decision dated January 23, 2014, this court concluded that St. Paul's motion was granted to the extent that Papaspiridakos was found in civil contempt of the so- ordered stipulation dated January 17, 2012, and a fine of $250.00 was imposed. St. Paul's was also directed to submit an affidavit, in connection with the settlement of the order, an affidavit of its counsel as to reasonable attorneys' fees. In addition, the so-ordered stipulation of January 17, 2012 was modified to include the following paragraph: Defendant Nick Papaspiridakos agrees to not come within 100 yards of the St. Paul's campuses or homes of current or former St. Paul's faculty and staff members.
Reargument
CPLR §2211(d)(2) provides in pertinent part, that: "[a] motion for leave to reargue...shall be based upon matters of fact or law allegedly overlooked or misapprehended by the court in determining the prior motion, but shall not include any matters of fact not offered on the prior motion..." "A motion for reargument is addressed to the discretion of the court. (Frisenda v. X Large Enterprises, Inc., 280 A.D.2d 514, 515 [2d Dep't 2001]; see also V. Veerswamy Realty v. Yenom, 71 A.D.3d 874, 874 [2d Dep't 2010]; Barnett v. Smith, 64 A.D.3d 6669, 670 [2d Dep't 2009]; E.W. Howell Co., Inc. v. S.A.F. La Sala Corp., 36 A.D.3d 653, 654 [2d Dep't 2007].) In essence, the purpose of a motion for leave to reargue is to allow a party to either demonstrate that the court misapplied the law or misapprehended or overlooked the facts in its earlier decision. (Mazinov v. Rella, 79 A.D.3d 979, 980 [2d Dep't 2010]; Barnett, 64 A.D.3d at 670-71; Pryor v. Commonwealth Land Title Insurance Co., 17 A.D.3d 434,435-36 [2d Dep't 2005]; Spatola v. Tarcher, 293 A.D.2d 523, 524 [2d Dep't 2002]; Murray v. City of New York, 283 A.D.3d 560, 560-61 [2d Dep't 2001]; Frisenda, 280 A.D.2d at 515; Diorio v. City of New York, 202 A.D.2d 625, 626 [2d Dep't 1994].)
Herein, Defendant has failed to establish that the court had overlooked or misapprehended any fact or law. Defendant merely recites the same arguments he presented in the prior application. It is well settled that a motion for leave to reargue "is not designed to provide an unsuccessful party with successive opportunities to reargue issues previously decided, or to present arguments different from those originally presented." (Id.; see also Ahmed v. Parmone, 116 A.D.3d 802 [2nd Dept 2014]; Mazinov v. Rella, 79 A.D.3d 979, 980 [2d Dep't 2010].)
In addition, Defendant's contention that the amount of attorney fees and expenses was "unreasonable and excessive" is not proper grounds for reargument.
Defendant also contends that the Stipulation dated January 17, 2012, was not signed by himself nor the Judge. However a review of the Stipulation indicates that it was signed by Defendant's attorney and was So-Ordered by Justice Bernice D. Siegal.
Defendant's remaining contentions are without merit and duplicative of his arguments submitted.
In addition, Defendant failed to properly furnish the required documents with its motion papers by not submitting a copy of the previously denied moving papers. (CPLR §2214(c); see, Biscone v. JetBlue Airways, Corp., 103 AD3d 158 (2nd Dept. 2012); see also , Sheedy v. Pataki, 236 AD2d 92 [3rd Dept. 1997] [holding that it is within trial court's discretion to deny reargument for failure to resubmit papers submitted upon prior motion].) Accordingly, Defendant's motion to reargue is defective.
Motion to Dismiss
Defendant's contention that the within action has "been hanging over defendant's head for two years now" is not grounds for reargument nor is it grounds for dismissal pursuant to CPLR 3211. "A defendant who seeks dismissal of a complaint pursuant to CPLR§ 3211(a)(5) on the ground that it is barred by the statute of limitations bears the initial burden of proving, prima facie, that the time in which to commence an action has expired, (see LaRocca v. DeRicco, 39 A.D.3d 486 [2nd Dept 2007].) Defendant has failed to establish, prima facie, that the time to in which to commence the within action has expired.
Furthermore, "[A] CPLR 3211(a)(1) motion to dismiss a complaint on the ground that a defense is founded on documentary evidence may be appropriately granted where the documentary evidence utterly refutes the plaintiff's allegations, conclusively establishing a defense as a matter of law." (Peter Williams Enterprises, Inc. v. New York State Urban Development Corp., 90 A.D.3d 1007, 1008 [2nd Dept 2011].)
In order to be considered documentary evidence within the meaning of CPLR 3211(a)(1), the evidence "must be unambiguous and of undisputed authenticity." (Fontanetta v. John Doe 1, 73 AD3d 78, 86 [2nd Dept 2010].) "In order to be considered documentary evidence within the meaning of CPLR 3211(a)(1), the evidence 'must be unambiguous and of undisputed authenticity.'" (Rabos v. R & R Bagels & Bakery, Inc., 100 A.D.3d 849, 850 [2nd Dept 2012]; Fontanetta v. Doe, 73 A.D.3d 78, 86 [2nd Dept 2010].) "Materials that clearly qualify as "documentary evidence" include "documents reflecting out-of-court transactions such as mortgages, deeds, contracts, and any other papers, the contents of which are 'essentially undeniable.' " (Sands Point Partners Private Client Group v. Fidelity Nat. Title Ins. Co., 99 A.D.3d 982 [2nd Dept 2012] citing Fontanetta v. Doe, 73 A.D.3d 78, 86 [2nd Dept 2010].)
Defendant failed to submit documentary evidence sufficient to "utterly refute" the plaintiff's allegations, conclusively establishing a defense as a matter of law . (See CPLR §3211(a)(1) see Rabos v. R & R Bagels & Bakery, Inc., 100 A.D.3d 849 [2nd Dept 2012].)
For the reasons set forth above, Defendant's motion is denied in its entirety. The court also notes that all Proposed Orders must be submitted through the Clerk's office. Dated: May 27, 2014

Citrumelo or Citromelo (X Citroncirus spp.) is also called Swingle citrumelo trifoliate hybrid, because it is a cold hardy citrus hybrid between a 'Duncan' grapefruit and a trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf.), developed by Walter Tennyson Swingle.
Citrumelo is widely employed as a citrus rootstock, being resistant to the severe citrus tristeza virus and to the Phytophthora foot rot as well as to blight, cold, and citrus nematode. It produces yellow fruit which taste (if added sugar) and smell like an ordinary grapefruit. The trees are very hardy and can survive temperatures as low as 30s (Fahrenheit).
Trifoliate orange, according to Swingle, belongs to a citrus related genera, called Poncirus, while grapefruit equivocally belongs to the genus citrus, hence the botanical name X citroncirus is a hybrid genus, derived from citrus and poncirus.

Last year, Razer made their first smartphone. It was focused towards gamers and is the first smartphone with a 120Hz refresh rate. But Razer doesn't stop there. At CES 2018, they showed off their latest creation. It's a docking station that looks like a laptop.
"Project Linda" is what they call it. It looks like a Razer Blade and features the Blade's keyboard, which is a good thing. The Blade has a great keyboard for both gaming and writing. The cool thing comes when we take a look in front of the keyboard, there is no touchscreen.
Project Linda is no laptop. It's simply a docking station that is made for your Razer phone. Where the touchpad is on most laptops, there is instead a big hole where the Razer Phone fits perfect. With the press of a button, a USB-C connector will connect to the phone and you can then use Project Linda as any other laptop.
The phone itself is the touchpad. Since the phone also features this high-quality display at 2560×1440 and 120Hz, Razer wants you to use it as a second display as well. This means that you now have a laptop with two monitors, with a keyboard between them. I am not sure what kind of information that I should have on the phone while it's docked but maybe I will be surprised. There is also no other type of feature other than having the phone as a touchpad.
This is a cool concept, and, concept, it is. Razer says that it's a prototype and may never be released, just as many of their other things they show off at CES. I also like the idea of having a phone as a computer, it's something that would be very handy for companies. But I am not sure if Razer is on the right track. We'll see how the future looks if they decide to release it to the market or if they go back to the drawing board with this new feedback.
And for those of you who wondering, no there are no reports of this device being stolen.

Press Releases Gov. Walker: Fraud prevention efforts reach record-high savings for taxpayers
Gov. Walker: Fraud prevention efforts reach record-high savings for taxpayers
Contact: Tom Evenson
Madison, Wisconsin – Governor Scott Walker visited Brown County Human Services in Green Bay, and Racine County Human Services in Sturtevant today to highlight the strong efforts of state and local agency fraud prevention and investigation staff to protect the integrity of Wisconsin's public assistance programs, including Medicaid and FoodShare. The Office of the Inspector General (OIG), created by Governor Walker in 2011, released its 2016 Annual Report today, which shows fraud prevention and detection savings, including overpayments established and cost avoidance topped $150 million since the creation of OIG, including a record $51 million in 2016 alone.
"Public assistance programs are an important safety net for those who need them," said Governor Walker. "The fraud prevention and detection work done by the Office of the Inspector General, along with strong partners at the local level, ensures the integrity of these programs and protects taxpayer dollars."
Shortly after taking office, Governor Walker created the Governor's Commission on Waste, Fraud, and Abuse, and based on recommendations from the committee, Governor Walker created the Department of Health Services' (DHS) Office of the Inspector General (OIG) in October 2011, to consolidate and improve public assistance program integrity and fraud prevention efforts, and to provide additional staffing resources for recipient fraud detection and prevention. Prior to the OIG, DHS had one person working on recipient fraud in the multi-billion dollar programs including FoodShare and Medicaid. The Fraud Investigation, Recovery and Enforcement (FIRE) Section in the OIG now has 30 staff, including 23 positions to support Medicaid and FoodShare Program fraud prevention and detection activities.
Successfully detecting and preventing fraud in public assistance programs requires strong partnerships with aggressive local investigators. The county-level fraud prevention is funded in part by increases in the past two state budgets, providing $1,000,000 annually to ten Fraud Prevention and Investigation Programs (FPIP) consortia and nine tribal agencies. This funds local agency investigators, private investigators, or police investigators. Under these partnerships, investigators processed almost 4,000 complaints submitted to the OIG hotline and web portal.
Brown County/Bay Lake Consortium (Brown, Door, Marinette, Oconto, Shawano Counties)
Since 2012, Brown County has established nearly $7 million in program savings from FoodShare and Medicaid fraud investigations. The Bay Lakes Consortium has saved more than $10 million. The Brown County Human Services Agency collaborates with the Brown County Sheriff's Department to utilize two deputies to investigate fraud allegations for the five-county fraud consortium. Brown County also enforces a county ordinance prohibiting fraud, identifying more people in the FoodShare program using benefits fraudulently or improperly – leading to suspension – than any of the other nine fraud consortia in the state over the past 5 years.
Racine County/Wisconsin Kenosha Racine Partnership (WKRP) Consortium (Kenosha, Racine Counties)
Since 2012, the WKRP Consortium has saved nearly $10 million dollars due to FoodShare and Medicaid fraud investigations, including more than $5.5 million in Racine County. Racine County's team strictly enforces a local anti-fraud ordinance and has established a solid relationship with the Racine County District Attorney's Office and local courts to prosecute the most egregious cases of public assistance fraud. Racine County's fraud unit recently had a federal review of fraud policies and processes and was commended for their compliance in all aspects of their FoodShare Program fraud operations.
DHS provides almost $9 billion in benefits to more than 1.3 million people in Wisconsin annually.

CPSE:ALK B
ALK-Abelló A/S (CPH:ALK B) Just Released Its Third-Quarter Earnings: Here's What Analysts Think
Shareholders might have noticed that ALK-Abelló A/S (CPH:ALK B) filed its quarterly result this time last week. The early response was not positive, with shares down 8.1% to kr.2,084 in the past week. Revenues of kr.772m came in a modest 4.2% below forecasts. Statutory losses were a relative bright spot though, with a per-share loss of kr.1.80 coming in a substantial 53% smaller than what the analysts had expected. Following the result, the analysts have updated their earnings model, and it would be good to know whether they think there's been a strong change in the company's prospects, or if it's business as usual. With this in mind, we've gathered the latest statutory forecasts to see what the analysts are expecting for next year.
View our latest analysis for ALK-Abelló
CPSE:ALK B Earnings and Revenue Growth November 14th 2020
Taking into account the latest results, the consensus forecast from ALK-Abelló's four analysts is for revenues of kr.3.95b in 2021, which would reflect a solid 17% improvement in sales compared to the last 12 months. Per-share earnings are expected to leap 224% to kr.12.70. Yet prior to the latest earnings, the analysts had been anticipated revenues of kr.3.99b and earnings per share (EPS) of kr.13.29 in 2021. The analysts seem to have become a little more negative on the business after the latest results, given the minor downgrade to their earnings per share numbers for next year.
The consensus price target held steady at kr.2,256, with the analysts seemingly voting that their lower forecast earnings are not expected to lead to a lower stock price in the foreseeable future. That's not the only conclusion we can draw from this data however, as some investors also like to consider the spread in estimates when evaluating analyst price targets. Currently, the most bullish analyst values ALK-Abelló at kr.2,425 per share, while the most bearish prices it at kr.1,910. Still, with such a tight range of estimates, it suggeststhe analysts have a pretty good idea of what they think the company is worth.
Of course, another way to look at these forecasts is to place them into context against the industry itself. It's clear from the latest estimates that ALK-Abelló's rate of growth is expected to accelerate meaningfully, with the forecast 17% revenue growth noticeably faster than its historical growth of 4.4%p.a. over the past five years. Compare this with other companies in the same industry, which are forecast to grow their revenue 5.4% next year. Factoring in the forecast acceleration in revenue, it's pretty clear that ALK-Abelló is expected to grow much faster than its industry.
The biggest concern is that the analysts reduced their earnings per share estimates, suggesting business headwinds could lay ahead for ALK-Abelló. Fortunately, they also reconfirmed their revenue numbers, suggesting sales are tracking in line with expectations - and our data suggests that revenues are expected to grow faster than the wider industry. There was no real change to the consensus price target, suggesting that the intrinsic value of the business has not undergone any major changes with the latest estimates.
With that said, the long-term trajectory of the company's earnings is a lot more important than next year. We have estimates - from multiple ALK-Abelló analysts - going out to 2024, and you can see them free on our platform here.

My now 3 month old son has allergic colitis. At 4 weeks we took him to his pediatrician because he was fussier than what a newborn typically would or should be. After a quick test to confirm blood in his stool, his pediatrician gave me the dreadful news: cut out all dairy and soy or stop nursing and move to an elemental formula.
Both of these choices seemed crazy to me. How could I give up ice cream and cheese?
As a dietitian I figured I should know what I could and couldn't have, but in that moment I was at a loss. So many of the foods I ate had either dairy or soy.
In the end I realized that my son needed me to make these changes so he could feel better. So, I decided to embark on a dairy and soy free lifestyle knowing that most babies outgrow these allergies as they get older. Avoiding dairy and soy hasn't been easy and I have found few resources to help guide me.
Here are some tasty soy and dairy free items that I have found and enjoyed. In the end, I'm happy to say that dairy and soy free eating isn't so bad!
Surprisingly, dairy was easier to avoid than soy. I knew I would have to eliminate the obvious: milk, ice cream, yogurt, cheese, and butter. I went to my local Whole Foods to see if I could find dairy free alternatives because surely I wouldn't have to spend the next few months cheese-less!
Daiya makes cheese slices that actually melt and taste like cheese. They also make a delicious cheese cake and pizza. I recently found their macaroni and cheese and will be trying that shortly.
Kite Hill makes ricotta cheese that I use to make lasagna, as well as some fancy cheese spreads which I have served to guests who aren't dairy free – they didn't complain! Kite Hill also makes a cream cheese spread and raviolis.
Heidi-Ho makes a chia cheese in a couple different flavors, like smoky or spicy, which makes a great pasta sauce.
Earth Balance puts out a soy and dairy free buttery spread.
So Delicious has cashew milk ice cream which has a similar texture and consistency to real ice cream. They also offer coconut and almond milk ice creams worth trying.
The biggest drawback for many of these products is that they have less protein than many dairy options. Since dairy had been a big part of my diet, I knew I would have to be careful to eat enough protein from other sources.
Once I moved beyond the obvious sources of dairy, I found that I needed to closely read the label of every cookie or cracker because many of them do contain some kind of milk protein.
Why did I care about having cookies and crackers still around? Well, life happens, and while I do try to make most things at home, sometimes having a grab and go snack is necessary.
Enjoy Life makes all kinds of goodies, like cookies, snack bars, chips, and chocolate chips! A bonus is that all products are free from the top 8 allergens so anything they make is safe for someone with these allergies.
Since my son's issue was also potentially soy, I had to be even more cautious. This is where things get tricky.
Soy is in so many things that you might not expect, such as bread and mayonnaise. Cutting out obvious soy products, like edamame, tofu, miso, and soy sauce, is easy, but finding products without soy additives, like soy oil and soy lecithin, is more difficult.
Some people with a soy allergy can tolerate soy lecithin and soy oil, but if you can't then cutting out soy means avoiding most processed and packaged foods.
Most of the dairy-free products I mentioned above are also soy free, but some of the grab and go items do have soy additives.
Avoiding soy and dairy has made it hard to eat at restaurants, although some restaurants are good about accommodating food allergies. In the end, I find it easier to cook at home. I swap out milk for almond or coconut milk, and I replace butter with coconut oil spread.
I will leave you with some of my favorite dairy and soy free recipes, which I highly recommend even if you don't need to avoid dairy and soy. Enjoy!
this was really very interesting, hillary. so happy to run into this.

Only by being on Mediafilm's masterpiece list, this Silent film masterpiece was one of the film I deeply desired to watch since many years. Moreover, it is from one of the most notable Silent Film directors Victor Sjöström or as credited in the film Seastrom. Sjöström actually changed the spelling of his name for its phonetically sound and be more "Americanized". Since he is Swedish, it would be more literal English to be called Seastrom instead of Sjöström even if it's the same pronunciation. He wasn't the only European director who came from Europe to work in America with the big stars and the big studios. Famous names like Josef von Sternberg, Erich von Stroheim, F.W. Murnau, were some of the biggest names to have ever worked into Silent films. Many of their movies are considered as masterpieces. It is the same case for Sjöström and his sumptuous The Wind.
Opening with a famous train sequence where Letty (Lillian Gish) from Virginia is going to live with her cousin in West Texas, a place where the wind blows all the time. While on the train, she meets an engaging gentleman name Roddy (Montagu Love) who tries to convince her that moving there is actually an error and that she should continue with him. The train opening strangely reminds the first scenes of Jim Jarmusch's Dead Man where a man from the East and the city goes to the West. Arriving at destination, Letty meets up with her cousin but his wife Cora (Dorothy Cumming) doesn't like Letty and clearly is jealous of her. Our protagonist have no choice but to marry Lige (Lars Hanson), a man that disgusts her and that she didn't love. However, a test will convince Letty to see her husband in a different way and she will rethink her life choices.
It is really not often that a pure talent of storytelling is right before your eyes. In the case of Sjöström it is more than pure talent: this is a case of artistry. The brilliant composition of the film and the directing of the structured plot make The Wind one of the major Silent films. Sjöström uses a simple and very sober mise en scène for his film and the special effect of superposition of images gives to Letty's visions a superbly unsettling effect that Lillian Gish performs with one of the greatest performances by any actor from her time.
Thorough her career and her long life, she died at 99 years, Lillian Gish received lots of praised first by her first director D.W. Griffith then by her peers, even François Truffaut in his tribute to her and her sister Dorothy with is dedicate in La nuit américaine. Just to name a few of her greatest performances: The Birth of A Nation, Broken Blossoms, and The Night of the Hunter, were all masterpieces and she managed to be as good with Silent films as with talkies. Nonetheless, in The Wind she was at the top of her game, the intensity of Sjöström's film needed all the fragility, ethereal beauty of the dame, her quick adaptation to the many changes in the attitude and state of mind of Letty and her fall into insanity until her complete recovery in almost one take and a continuous shot.
She was a prisoner of the desert and her containment was even worse she was obliged to marry a boorish man that only disgusts her. Until a great sand storm washed away the ghosts of her past and open her eyes to the man she never let herself appreciate. Then she found everything she was looking for in the hell she thought she was. Like a wild stallion she delivers herself from the holds that made her miserable.

No more excuses: Nonprofits give social media a try
by: Edie Gross
Using Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and more, nonprofits old and new are connecting with supporters and others like never before.
The Humane Society of the United States cared for more than 60,000 animals in 2011. But much of its success lies in its ability to tell the story of just one.
Like Honey, a tan pit bull rescued in July from a Gary, Ind., dog fighting operation.
A 3-minute video created by the Humane Society shows the dog as rescuers found her -- chained and cowering in a box, part of the left side of her mouth torn away.
Posted on the society's YouTube site, the video garnered more than 61,000 views. On the group's Facebook page, hundreds commented, on both the original story and the follow-up detailing Honey's recovery and adoption.
"This story broke my heart and made my day," one supporter wrote.
"I am so happy for Honey and so grateful to the HSUS for all their incredible work," wrote another. "And to show my appreciation, I just donated so that the amazing work you guys do can continue."
The Humane Society is part of a wave of nonprofit organizations that are harnessing the power of social media. They're using Facebook, Twitter and other digital media to connect with larger audiences, share resources with like-minded groups, inspire volunteers and donors, and encourage public conversations about issues important to them.
Over the past decade, that pool of nonprofits embracing social media has grown exponentially, said Beth Kanter and Allison Fine, authors of "The Networked Nonprofit," a how-to book for organizations wanting to use digital communications.
Newer nonprofits like charity: water and MomsRising have always relied on social networking, Kanter said. It's in their DNA.
But now even older nonprofits -- household names like the Humane Society and the American Red Cross -- are recognizing the benefits of social networking. Their success, in turn, has convinced other organizations to give social media a try, Fine said.
"What we hear a lot is, 'Show me somebody like me doing this,'" said Fine, who hosts a blog at allisonfine.com and a monthly podcast for The Chronicle of Philanthropy. "And now we can. There are no more excuses."
Nonprofits today have no choice but to engage with social media, she said: "In another year or so, it's going to be as fundamental as using the telephone."
Expanding reach, energizing fans
As the Humane Society illustrates, even old dogs can learn new tricks when it comes to social media. When the organization was founded in 1954, television was still in its infancy. Blogs, Twitter, video- and photo-sharing websites, and Facebook and MySpace -- if imagined at all -- were the stuff of science fiction.
Now science fact, those digital tools are helping the society expand its reach and energize fans, who can ask questions, share the organization's stories and support its efforts with the click of a button.
"Social media is enabling us to connect with our constituents in an individualized way, which we've never been able to do before," said Carie Lewis, the society's director of emerging media. "Our supporters respond best to ways they can actually make a difference for animals and when we post good news or victories that they've helped make happen."
Questions to consider:
To what extent does your organization operate with a "fortress mindset"? What would it take to be more open and transparent?
Leaders interested in engaging social media must first embrace it, even if it means being reverse-mentored by a younger staffer. What skills could your senior leaders learn from staffers?
Is the two-way nature of social media a threat or an opportunity? What practices, what strategies will prepare your organization to listen well?
Does your organization offer supporters avenues -- digital or not -- to act and make a difference?
For organizations adopting a social media strategy, the first step is often the hardest, Kanter said. For some, it means abandoning a long-held "fortress" mindset -- where communication with the outside world is tightly controlled and rarely two-way -- and becoming a transparent organization that engages in open and honest conversations with both fans and critics.
In the most successful cases, two crucial things happen. First, the organization's top officials embrace the concept of social media, playing around with it themselves to get a feel for it, even if that means having a junior staffer show them the ropes.
"It's about having some humility and being willing to be reverse-mentored," said Kanter, who trains nonprofits to use social media and blogs on the topic at bethkanter.org. "If you can't fly, run. If you can't run, walk. And if you can't walk, crawl. But you've got to keep moving forward. You don't have to do everything. Pick one channel and get comfortable; practice it."
Second, the nonprofit develops a strategy, essentially asking, "How can engaging in public conversations through social media support our mission?"
The goals should be realistic and measurable, Kanter said. Maybe the group wants to attract 10 new members, register 10 new voters or add 10 new donors to its rolls. As it works to achieve those goals, the organization should integrate social media with traditional outreach methods. Start a Twitter feed or set up a Facebook page, for example. Then analyze the data for at least a year to 18 months to see if it's working or needs to be tweaked.
Take baby steps
"Just try one small, baby-step experiment," Kanter said. "You can't get overnight results with anything. We live in a really complex world. We don't know if you're going to be successful. The point is to be agile, responsive."
The Humane Society wanted to know whether promoting its cause on social networks could help it better protect animals. So in 2006 it hired Lewis to launch its MySpace page, and a year later it joined Facebook.
Initially, executives feared that social media might be a fad, one that wouldn't contribute to the organization's goals, Lewis said. To get their buy-in, she taught them how to use social media and began regularly presenting social media successes -- like the Honey story -- at board meetings.
"I literally sat down with our CEO and COO and taught them how to use Facebook -- change their privacy settings, how to post, everything," she said in an email. "Now, the joke is that our COO tweets more than our official Twitter account."
The Humane Society now has more than 1 million fans on Facebook and more than 96,000 followers on Twitter. But the organization doesn't measure success in numbers alone. It's more concerned about what people do.
"In social media, our goals are getting people to take action, fundraising, providing customer service and increasing positive sentiment about the brand online by promoting the good work of the organization," Lewis said. "We energize people by communicating individually with people who write to us and providing our fans a way to participate and make real change for animals."
Social media isn't only about helping the society spread its message. Perhaps more importantly, it also allows the public to communicate directly with the organization -- to question its policies, cheer on its efforts, take action on behalf of animals or even just share photos of their pets on "Mutt Mondays" and "Feline Fridays."
And when controversy arises, social media gives the organization the ability to respond quickly and personally, clearing up misconceptions. In December, public outrage -- much of it mistakenly aimed at the society -- erupted after a local humane society shelter in Arizona euthanized an injured kitten that had been surrendered with the understanding that it would receive medical care.
Angry and even threatening messages were posted on the national organization's Facebook page and Twitter feed. Staff members answered each one, explaining how the Humane Society had no connection to the Arizona shelter and no role in the incident. What's more, the organization's army of supporters often answered the critical posts themselves, sometimes beating staffers to the punch.
You've already lost control
Having an online presence allowed the nonprofit to weigh in on a conversation that otherwise would've taken place without it.
"My advice would be to accept the fear of losing control, because you've already lost control," Lewis said. "People are talking about you already in other venues, so you might as well participate so that your voice can be heard."
One mistake groups often make is launching their social media presence with a fundraising campaign, Kanter and Fine said. Social media doesn't raise money -- people do.
To get people to the point that they want to donate to an organization requires engagement and relationship building, Kanter said: "You have to make people like you. You can't just go out with your hand out."
Instead, listen first, she said. Use social media to find out what issues are important to your audience. What are they talking about? What are they willing to take action on? What advice do they have for your organization?
"It's not like the priest giving a sermon," Kanter said. "It's a call and response."
Being interested in your constituency builds trust, which can propel people up what Kanter and Fine call the "ladder of engagement." It's a framework with casual supporters at the bottom -- folks who might read an organization's blog and occasionally share information with friends -- and hard-core fans at the top -- those who donate money, recruit other supporters and even organize events on behalf of the cause.
Both kinds of supporters are essential for any effective nonprofit, the authors said. Organizations built entirely on tight-knit relationships often don't expand, because they're cliquish, and organizations built entirely on loose relationships are too weak to accomplish anything. But groups built on both strong and loose ties can move a lot of information through a network more effectively, growing and energizing different sets of people at different times.
The 1.1 million members of MomsRising are a perfect example. The nonprofit started in May 2006 with a handful of supporters who wanted a more "family-friendly" America, one with paid family leave, quality affordable child care and guaranteed health benefits for children.
Currently, more than 500 bloggers contribute to the organization's website, covering topics ranging from breast-feeding and parenting issues to healthy diets and toxins in children's products. The roughly 3.5 million people who read those posts -- not to mention the nonprofit's Twitter and Facebook messages -- can take a range of actions, from signing petitions to testifying before Congress.
Their efforts have been credited with securing paid family leave in New Jersey and Washington, paid sick leave in Milwaukee, and federal legislation addressing toxic chemicals in children's toys, baby bottles and other products.
At any given time, MomsRising communicates through multiple channels and offers multiple actions that members can take, said Kristin Rowe-Finkbeiner, co-founder and executive director.
"Our members are so busy that they may have 30 seconds one week and an hour the next week," she said. "It's our job to open up as many avenues as possible for busy people to have an impact, no matter how much time they have."
That same emphasis on relationship building and multiple avenues of participation has been a major factor in charity: water's success. Founded only five years ago, the nonprofit has raised $40 million to support more than 4,200 clean-water projects in 19 countries.
Using mycharitywater.org, an offshoot of the organization's main website, supporters can run their own online fundraising campaigns on behalf of the nonprofit. To get donations, they give up birthdays, sell lemonade, grow beards, host champagne parties or run marathons, posting campaign updates online.
Making our story their story
"Social media allows supporters to take our story and make it their story," said Paull Young, the director of digital engagement at charity: water. "That's why social media works so well for us. We can build that grass-roots effort that we think will solve the water crisis."
The group's fundraising is driven by word of mouth, amplified by digital media, Young said. On its website, the organization shares photos, videos, stories and even GPS coordinates for the new wells donors have sponsored, and it sends updates to more than 1.4 million followers on Twitter and more than 200,000 fans on Facebook.
Though charity: water's website features a "donate" button, its Twitter and Facebook messages usually don't, Young said. Like other digitally savvy nonprofits, charity: water focuses instead on building relationships, especially with those who give time, money and attention. If the relationships are right, he said, the money will come.
"We keep things very positive, very personal," he said. "We don't want them to give out of guilt. We want them to be inspired."
The nonprofit uses a variety of social media to forge personal connections, blogging about supporters' fundraising campaigns and sending shout-outs via Twitter. To celebrate its fifth birthday last year, staffers made 250 videos thanking some of the organization's supporters and posted them on its YouTube page.
As Young said, the money does come, with about 70 percent of donations raised through digital channels. And the real bottom line? Using 100 percent of all donations for water projects, the nonprofit has brought clean water to more than 2 million people so far.
Would charity: water be as effective without using social media?
"We could absolutely do what we do without it, but at the heart of it, charity: water is a digital organization," said Young, who encourages other nonprofits to follow the digital path.
"Take the time to learn the tools," he said. "It's like learning to play the piano. You're only going to work it out when you put your fingers on the keys."

bq. [Walking Dead Season 3 Episode 5|http://www.alexband.net/forum/topics/watch-the-walking-dead-season-3-episode-5-online-free-enjoy] Those ex prisoners must really have no place else to go if they are still trying to befriend our group after last week's carnage. In a sneak peek of The Walking Dead Season 3, Episode 5, "Say the Word," Oscar (Vincent Ward) and Axel (Lew Temple) try to comfort Glenn (Steven Yeun) as he digs a grave. [Dexter Season 7 Episode 7|http://dexters07e07t.orbs.com/] "Your friends, they're good folks," Axel says. "They were family," Glenn replies. We know T-Dog (IronE Singleton) and Lori (Sarah Wayne Callies) are dead, so when the guys offer to help, why does Glenn say, "I need two more"? Two more? Three graves. So ... is he just assuming Carol (Melissa McBride) is dead or will we find out that she definitely is? Or did someone else die? Remember way back at the end of The Walking Dead Season 3, Episode 3 — just before The Governor started staring at his wall of watery heads — we checked out his room, which included a photo of a blonde woman and a little girl. [boardwalk Empire Season 3 Episode 9|http://kidblog.org/boardwalkempires03e09t/d1042961-9675-4814-ab8d-e3cc3546c684/watch-boardwalk-empire-season-3-episode-9-online-free-enjoy-streaming/] Walking Dead executive producer Glen Mazzara confirmed to TV Guide that the little girl in that family photo is Penny, whom The Governor is calling his daughter. Who is Penny? In the comic books, Penny is the daughter of The Gov's late brother, Philip. The Gov's birth name was Brian, [Revenge Season 2 Episode 7|http://soundcloud.com/user306743708/watch-revenge-season-2-episode-7-online-free-enjoy] but when Philip died he took that name. Penny actually turned into a zombie, but The Governor kept her around, feeding her with stuff like human flesh. (What a devoted uncle/dad/psycho!) Entertainment Weekly talked to executive producer and original story guru Robert Kirkman. EW joked that they were looking forward to meeting "that cute little tyke" Penny. "I don't want to reveal too much," Kirkman said. "But I will say that the opening scene of Episode 5 is, [Walking Dead Season 3 Episode 5|http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474981750940] uh…It's going to be a pretty memorable one. So be on the look out for that." Hmm... So maybe this Sunday's November 11 episode, "Say the Word," will include a Penny opener? [Dexter Season 7 Episode 7|http://dexters07e07t.metroblog.com/] Maybe The Governor will be feeding her or we'll see her enjoying a snack? In a different interview, Kirkman was asked whether the show planned to get into the Penny storyline from the books. "Well, I can't really speak definitively as to whether or not Penny is going to be included on the show," Kirkman said (via Fanbolt). "All I can really say, is make sure that you stay tuned and keep an eye out for that kind of stuff. But you know I will say that his back story is something that, [boardwalk Empire Season 3 Episode 9|http://www.alexband.net/forum/topics/watch-boardwalk-empire-season-3-episode-9-online-free-enjoy] you know, is very interesting and there will be snippets of it revealed as we move forward. So I think that his story will kind of unfold as we tell things that are, you know, happening in the current time." Yeah, it sounds like we'll be getting little pieces of The Gov's past as opposed to doing one big origin story. The Gov is apparently sticking around for a while, so they can take their sweet time him with. And pretty Penny. [Revenge Season 2 Episode 7|http://kidblog.org/revenges02e07t/1657cc8b-4c79-45fe-9b73-78a523e1febe/watch-revenge-season-2-episode-7-online-free-enjoy-streaming/] Those ex prisoners must really have no place else to go if they are still trying to befriend our group after last week's carnage.

Army redundancies: 4,480 soldiers told they have lost their jobs
Ministry of Defence said the move is necessary to help balance its books but insists operational capability will not be affected by the personnel reduction
Cheryl Mullin
Ministry of Defence has announced 4,480 job losses
More than 4,000 soldiers have been told they have lost their jobs in the latest round of Army redundancies.
The Ministry of Defence (MoD) announced 4,480 Army personnel have been made redundant as the Government tries to reduce the number of regulars to 82,000 by 2018.
The MoD said the move is necessary to help balance the books but insisted operational capability would not be affected.
Defence Secretary Philip Hammond confirmed there will be no further reductions in manpower in the next round of spending cuts.
Announcing the latest tranche of redundancies – originally thought to involve 5,300 soldiers – he said: "It is with great regret that we have had to make redundancies to deliver the reduction in the size of the armed forces, but unfortunately they were unavoidable due to the size of the defence deficit that this Government inherited.
"Although smaller, our armed forces will be more flexible and agile to reflect the challenges of the future with the protection and equipment they need.
"They will continue to be the bedrock of our society and provide extremely rewarding and exciting careers for future recruits."
The MoD said personnel selected for redundancy would be told face to face by their commanding officer.
It said it had done everything to avoid "non-applicant" redundancies, and 84% of those losing their jobs in the latest tranche had applied for redundancy.
Those who applied for will leave on or before December 17 this year, and those who did not will leave on or before June 17 2014.
Soldiers who did not apply and are currently serving, preparing for or recovering from operations where they receive an operational allowance, such as Afghanistan, are exempt, as are those recovering from serious injuries sustained on operations.
The MoD said the Army will need to make further reductions to reach its final target of 82,000, likely to involve a further tranche for Army personnel, and a small number of medical and dental personnel from the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force.
Chief of the General Staff General Sir Peter Wall said: "This redundancy scheme is a difficult but essential step towards our A2020 structure. We owe our sincere gratitude to those leaving the Army for their service over such a demanding period of operations.
"We will support them and their families as best we can on their path to civilian life. Meanwhile we continue to need plenty of young and talented recruits to ensure the Army is fit to meet the challenges of the future."

Blair backs Jordan Baptism centre
Baptist leaders and dignitaries, including former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, took part in a ceremony at the weekend dedicating a new evangelical Christian baptism centre at the Jordanian spot traditionally regarded as the site of Jesus' baptism.
The afternoon celebration at the Baptism Centre at Bethany beyond Jordan included more than 120 baptisms by immersion in the Jordan River. They were conducted by pastors from the Jordan Baptist Convention.
Eron Henry, associate director of communications for the Baptist World Alliance, said in a travel blog that it was the first time Baptists in Jordan had received such prominent coverage in Jordan's major media outlets.
One of several new churches being built along the Jordan River where Christian pilgrims have long believed Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist, the centre is intended to cater to Christian traditions that practice believers' baptism by immersion.
BWA General Secretary Neville Callam, in the day's major address, called the centre "a place where people from all parts of the world may assemble for a journey and an experience." He expressed the hope that "the waters of the Jordan extinguish the crippling fires of hopelessness that burn in the hearts of those who have no knowledge of God."
Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life and pastor of Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California, sent a congratulatory letter saying he could not attend the dedication ceremony but plans to make a pilgrimage there when he next visits the Middle East in 2010.
BWA president David Coffey read greetings from former United States Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton, both of whom are Baptists, and presented a gift on behalf of the BWA to Jordan's Prince Ghazi.
A plaque to be placed on the building upon its completion was unveiled at the ceremony. The plaque reads: "The Commission of the Site of the Baptism of Jesus Christ welcomes here visiting pilgrims from the member churches of the Baptist World Alliance."
Also participating in the event were Imad Maayah, a Baptist and former member of the Jordanian Parliament; Toma Magda and Tony Peck, President and General Secretary of the European Baptist Federation and Nabeeh Abbassi, former president of the Jordan Baptist Convention and chief organizer of the dedication and opening.
An estimated 1,700 persons attended the dedication and opening ceremony.
Blair, now a special envoy to the Middle East on behalf of the United Nations, European Union, United States and Russia, said: "it took courage and leadership" for Jordan to allow the baptism site in a part of the world often torn by sectarian strife. The founder of the Tony Blair Faith Foundation said it also modelled the spirit of compassion and justice that ran through the teachings of Jesus, the Old Testament prophets and Islam's founding prophet, Muhammad.
Jordan is about 92 percent Muslim, but relations between Muslims and a Christian minority, estimated at 6 percent, are generally good. While Islam is the state religion and proselytization of Muslims and conversions from Islam are prohibited, the Jordanian Constitution promises religious freedom as long as rites do not violate public order or morality and recognize several Christian denominations.
Founded in 1957, the Jordan Baptist Convention consists of 20 churches with a combined membership of about 2,000. It also operates two schools.
The offer of a designated plot of land for a baptism centre came from Jordan's King Abdullah II during a meeting he held with Coffey in September 2007. In 2008, Coffey visited the site and met with Prince Ghazi, who chairs an independent board of trustees which runs the site as a national park. The board facilitated the construction.
"In our Baptist faith and order, the baptism of Jesus is of central importance to our understanding of the baptism of Christians," Coffey wrote in a 2008 letter affirming the authenticity of the baptism site. "We believe baptism rests on the command of the risen Lord and is integrated with his command to preach the good news to the world; and this command is given authority by his own example at the beginning of his messianic ministry."
Bethany beyond Jordan – not to be confused with the village near Jerusalem which the Bible describes as the home of Lazarus, Mary and Martha – was on a pilgrimage route between Jerusalem and Bethlehem to the west and Mount Nebo to the east. It is regarded as one of Christianity's three holiest sites, along with the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jeruslam and Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity.
It was a military border zone until the 1994 peace treaty between Israel and Jordan and today is regarded one of the most important recent discoveries in biblical archaeology. Excavations did not begin until 1996 and so far more than 20 churches, caves and baptismal pools dating from Roman and Byzantine times have been uncovered.
Churches of various Christian denominations – including Anglican, Catholic, Coptic and Russian Orthodox – have been constructed or are in the process of being built nearby.
John Paul II was the first Roman Catholic pontiff to visit the site, making his pilgrimage there in March 2000. Pope Benedict XVI is expected to visit the holy site in May.
Bethany beyond Jordan is also sacred to Jews and Muslims. In addition to Jesus' baptism, it's said to be the spot where Joshua first led the Israelites into the Promised Land and where the prophet Elijah was taken to heaven in a chariot of fire.
While in Jordan, the BWA delegation met with Islamic journalists and scholars to discuss the BWA response to A Common Word Between Us and You, a letter written by 138 Muslim scholars and leaders to Christians in October 2007.
On Sunday, March 22, Neville Callam crossed over into Turkey to preach at the Izmir Baptist Church. Today Turkey's third-largest city, Izmir in ancient times was called Smyrna, a place mentioned in the second chapter of Revelation among seven towns and cities in the area then known as Asia Minor.

House of Bishops – senior women clergy representatives
on Friday, 7 June 2013 at 1.02 pm by Peter Owen
categorised as Church of England, General Synod
Update The rules for electing the regional representatives were amended on 14 June 2013. Full details are in my article here.
At its meeting of 7 February 2013 the House of Bishops decided that eight senior women clergy, elected regionally, will participate in all meetings of the House until such time as there are six female members of the House. The necessary changes to the House's Standing Orders were made at its meeting in May 2013.
The rules for electing these Regional Representatives are online here as a Word document, and I have converted them into a webpage.
Also available is the official summary of decisions made by the House at its May meeting.
Further information about the House of Bishops is available here.
Hilary Cotton
Great news! Except that the women won't be there in September when the House of Bishops discusses possible arrangements for those who won't accept women bishops. Surely, surely this electoral process can be sped up? Just change the dates…….I'm sure the women concerned could get themselves ready to vote by next week if the lawyers would let them?
David Lamming
Re the timetable for electing the female regional representatives to the House of Bishops, perhaps the Bishops would care to explain how the first election is to take place "by 1 October 2013" when the Regional Electors (who will comprise the Regional Electoral Colleges) are to hold office for a period of three years "beginning on 1 December 2013."
Anthony Archer
Over-engineered by the lawyers. The putative electors could readily decide on six names straight away, doing it by email, and have then attend in September, replacing them with the six elected under the convoluted system later. I bet the final group would not be that much different.


Minimum Profit is a FREE text editor for programmers.
the text editor you were using until today, before you've found this unknown jewel that will change your life.
Much of Minimum Profit's behaviour is changeable from a configuration file, as key bindings, colors, the menu and other variables. Take a look at mprc.sample for details. The configuration files for Unix systems are /etc/mprc and $HOME/.mprc (see below to know how to set it in Win32).
curses: the good old text interface. You need any Unix (Linux, Solaris, IRIX, any BSD...) and the curses or ncurses library. It was also sucessfully compiled under BeOS (with a locally compiled ncurses) many years ago.
GTK: You need any X11 system with the GTK+ libraries installed. Support for GTK versions 1.2 and 2.0 is provided.
Win32: You need Microsoft Windows 95 or later and the lccwin32 compiler.
Multiple files can be edited at the same time and blocks copied and pasted among them.
Creative use of tags: tags created by the external utility ctags are used to move instantaneously to functions or variables inside your current source tree. Tags are visually highlighted (underlined), and symbol completion can be triggered to avoid typing your own function names over and over.
Intelligent help system: pressing F1 over any word of a text being edited triggers the underlying system help (calling man when editing C or Shell files, perldoc with Perl, ri on Ruby, winhelp on MS Windows...).
Understandable interface: drop-down menus, reasonable default key bindings.
Configurable keys, menus and colors.
Text templates can be easily defined / accessed.
Multiplatform: Console/curses, GTK+ (1.2 and 2.0), MS Windows.
Automatic indentation, word wrapping, internal grep, learning / repeating functions.
Search and replace using plain text or regular expressions (including a special function to replace text on all open files).
Password-protected, encrypted text files (using the ARCFOUR algorithm).
It helps you abandon vi, emacs and other six-legged freaks definitely.
MS Windows binary pretty easily (README.mingw32).
The replacement pattern in 'replace' now expands slashed characters as t and n and a new russian translation is included.


Does the idea of taking the family for an overnight trip overwhelm you? Have you gone on one only to find the car overpacked, yet forgotten to pack a change of clothes?
Don't let a small trip overwhelm you. Small trips can lead to bigger adventures. We have to start small and build upon there with a regular practice of getting away? We need to know that you can't prepare for everything, but you can have a plan for a lot of it. Then know mistakes and problems will arise, be ok with that, and push yourself to shine in any setback. Challenge is what allows us to grow and foster growth in others.
We examine some general ways to prepare for overnight adventures from slumber parties to car camping, backpacking in the back country or around Europe, and even easy getaway weekends to a cabin or hotel. Don't spent the next weekend at home, get out, explore, and find your next adventure!


If you know Whistler, you know that Araxi restaurant is a Whistler institution. The reputation of the restaurant does not disappoint and Chef Walt continues to innovate, yet still holds true to his farm-to-table mantra. The restaurant recently opened a private dining space, The Cellar by Araxi, a chic room where diners eat, drink and celebrate, surrounded by bottles of wine. Make sure to choose a glass or bottle of wine from in-house Sommelier Samantha Rahn's extensive wine list.
Spend a weekend or two in Whistler in November (usually before the snow falls) at Cornucopia, Whistler's celebration of food and wine. The 10-day festival is full of seminars, events and meals that are dedicated to the love of dining, wine and cocktails. My personal favourites are the Chef's Table Luncheons, where a well-known chef hosts a multi-course lunch and wine pairing in a private home. Booking early for 2017 will make sure you don't miss out, as many of the events sell out well in advance.
A work of art in itself, this beautiful building is set in the heart of Whistler amongst lush trees, epically revealed by the walls of windows in the common areas. British Columbia's traditional works of the province's First Peoples through to its contemporary masters is part of the permanent collection at Audain, along with rotating exhibits, such as 'From Geisha to Diva' through to January 2017 and 'Intersections: Contemporary Artist Films' until February 2017.
The perfect spot to après ski or kick off a night of restaurant hopping, Bar Oso's Spanish-inspired small plates (and the most bountiful charcuterie boards you might ever lay eyes on!) are perfect to share. Chef Santos' menu will have you wanting to try one of each, which isn't the worst idea ever. The room is gorgeous and lively, and the cocktail list has something for everyone, even wine lovers.
When you really want to unplug and relax, or even if you're in hangover recovery mode, the Scandinave Spa is an oasis in the mountains. The hot and cold pools, steam rooms, saunas and resting areas are a treat on their own—or add in a relaxation massage for the epitome of rejuvenation. Spending a day here is the perfect winter or summer retreat.
Stationed at Fairmont Chateau Whistler is the VIDA Spa, the perfect place to indulge in a full body scrub, massage or mani/pedi. Booking in for any service means you have access to the hotel pools, hot tubs and fitness centre to really make a day of it.
Nothing is more quintessentially Whistler than the Fairmont Chateau Whistler. The hotel can't be beat in terms of location, cozy feel, and some of the best service around. Book in for a weekend stay and enjoy everything this majestic, expansive hotel has to offer. Make sure you leave plenty of time to spend in the outdoor/indoor pools and hot tubs for a post-dinner soak. Try to get up in time for the delicious buffet breakfast, where you can linger over coffee and the most beautiful mountain view, or enjoy a leisurely meal in bed with room service.
Whistler is world-renowned for its skiing—but the foodie, shopping, art and spa circuit makes for a fun weekend, even if hitting the slopes isn't on your agenda. With some of the best restaurants in the country, you'll find no shortage of non-athletic leisure activities to enjoy in Whistler.

Report: Climate Change Threatens Survival of Most North American Birds
Alex Ruppenthal | October 10, 2019 4:15 pm
A piping plover (Lorraine Minns / Audubon Photography Awards)
Nearly two-thirds of bird species in North America are at risk of extinction from climate change, according to an alarming new report from the National Audubon Society.
Scientists with the environmental nonprofit found that 389 of the 604 North American bird species are at risk of dying out as a result of temperature increases linked to global warming. The findings are based on an analysis of 140 million bird records, including observational data from field biologists and bird enthusiasts across the country.
The new report follows a study released last month showing there are 3 billion fewer birds in the U.S. and Canada today than there were in 1970, a decline of nearly 30%.
"Can you imagine not having the sounds of birds in the spring and the fall?" said David O'Neill, Audubon's chief conservation officer. "That's an emotional connection that people have to birds, and losing that [would be] horrible.
"From an environmental perspective, birds are absolutely a mirror for the health of the environment," O'Neill continued. "If birds are doing poorly, the environment is doing poorly. And that means humans are doing poorly."
A red-headed woodpecker (Gary Robinette / Audubon Photography Awards)
Audubon's report estimated the number of bird species that will be at risk under three different scenarios outlined in a 2014 report from the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which included models for temperature increases of 1.5, 2 and 3 degrees Celsius.
In Illinois, 15 bird species would be at "high vulnerability" of dying out should global temperatures rise 3 degrees Celsius or more compared to pre-industrial levels.
"That's because these birds won't have breeding grounds or summering grounds that are essential to their life cycle," O'Neill said.
The list of species that could go extinct in Illinois includes the red-headed woodpecker, brown thrasher and several types of sparrows and warblers.
There is some good news in the report, however. Audubon scientists found that by keeping temperatures from rising more than 1.5 degrees Celsius, 76% of North American bird species – or 290 species in total – would face a far lower risk of extinction. In Illinois, just five bird species would be "highly vulnerable" to dying out, compared to 15 species under the 3-degree scenario.
"It's not too late if we act now," O'Neill said. "And that's the real message we want to convey. We're confident that if we step up our efforts around reducing greenhouse gases … we can save a lot of birds."
A brown thrasher (Una Davenhill / Great Backyard Bird Count)
The 2014 IPCC report cited by Audubon preceded the landmark 2015 Paris climate agreement, which set a goal of keeping global average temperatures from rising more than 1.5 degrees Celsius compared to pre-industrial levels. The deal was originally signed by the U.S. and 195 other countries, but President Donald Trump withdrew the U.S. from the agreement in 2017.
The U.S. is now the only country on the planet not part of the agreement.
"It's absolutely disappointing that we would walk away from the Paris accord, that we're not proving to be leaders globally," O'Neill said. "But on the other hand, what we're finding is that states and municipalities and lots of governments across the country are taking action to address the issue of climate change, to advance clean energy solutions."
O'Neill said those concerned about the risks facing many bird species can take steps to reduce their own emissions, while also supporting political leaders and policies that address climate change.
Another way to help? "[People] can grow their own backyard gardens that attract birds," O'Neil said. "Those little small steps are meaningful, especially if they are embraced by millions of people."
