The Challenges and Risks When Private Employers Regulate Employees' Off-Duty Conduct in California
Topics: Discrimination, Harassment & Retaliation, Employee Hiring, Discipline & Termination, Legal Information, Social Media

Social activism pervades our daily lives more today than it has at any time in the last fifty years. With the broadcasting capabilities afforded by social media platforms, many people voice their viewpoints through Twitter, Reddit, Instagram, Snapchat, LinkedIn, TikTok and Facebook. Others are out in the streets protesting, or engaging in a silent protest by refusing to wear a mask or socially distance. Still others aggressively assert their political views in public, while being videoed, resulting in their outbursts being shared on Twitter, YouTube, and other social media platforms.
Culturally, we find tolerance and intolerance occupying two sides of the same coin, palpably polarizing people who hold differing points of view and few are holding back when it comes to articulating their feelings. Suddenly, personal perspectives on what were once viewed as the most personal of topics are offered up for public consumption, often prompting, if not provoking, reactions from their viewing audiences.
The potential effects of such social media posts and other activism, may prove challenging for many employers, whether because the employer does not want to be seen as having voiced any one particular viewpoint whatsoever, or because an employee's posts advance statements that are antithetical to the employer's guiding principles or public image and/or might offend the customer or client base of the employer and potentially damage the employer's business as a result. Employers are increasingly concerned that if one of their employees engages in activism that is offensive, the employer may become a target on social media, even if the activism was not authorized by the employer. This is particularly concerning in today's "cancel" culture. So, what's an employer to do when employees author or disseminate political, social, religious, or incendiary posts on social media, or make their views known in other ways that might offend some?
First, can an employer even lawfully monitor an employee's off-duty conduct, and if so how can it do so legally? Second, can an employer lawfully make employment or discipline decisions based upon an employee's off-duty conduct? If so, what legal limitations exist? These questions figure prominently at the intersection of an employer's brand value and its employees' social activism.
Recently, companies like Franklin Templeton, Ted Todd Insurance, and Sports 1140 KHTK publicized their answers to these initial questions after their now former employees displayed what they deemed to be socially unacceptable behavior.
At Franklin Templeton, a viral video showed their employee, Amy Cooper, making a report to the police, from New York's Central Park, that an "African American man" was threatening her. The video merely showed a bird watcher, Christian Cooper, asking Ms. Cooper (no relation) to place her dog on a leash per Central Park rules. Ms. Cooper's police report created an uproar on social media, with many accusing Cooper of fabricating the report based on racist motivations. The entire incident quickly caught Franklin Templeton's attention. Ms. Cooper's conduct had nothing to do with her job duties or performance of work for Franklin Templeton. Nevertheless, Franklin Templeton swiftly decided to terminate her employment citing that the Company has "zero-tolerance for racism."
Ted Todd Insurance also found itself dealing with an employee's off-duty behavior caught on video. In Florida, a bystander tweeted a video of Daniel Maples, a Ted Todd Insurance employee, depicting him threatening and intimidating an elderly woman after she questioned his failure to wear a mask inside a Costco store in violation of store rules. Again, the video was shared widely on social media and sparked all manner of commentary from the public. After it went viral, Ted Todd Insurance terminated Maples' employment, stating that intimidating and threatening behaviors are contradictory to the Company's objectives.
Finally, in Sacramento, Sports 1140 KHTK's long term sports radio personality, Grant Napear, tweeted "All Lives Matter" in response to an NBA player's question on how Mr. Napear felt about Black Lives Matter. Once again, this sparked a venomous reaction from Twitter participants, with many calling Napear a racist and ignorant. Under apparent social pressure, Sports 1140 KHTK ended Mr. Napear's employment relationship, stating that his tweet is not reflective of the company's beliefs or values.
These well-publicized adverse employment decisions provide examples of how some employers are responding to employee off-duty conduct, by terminating employees for conduct unrelated to job performance. These highly publicized terminations lead many to believe that it is perfectly permissible for employers to fire employees for engaging in off-duty conduct they don't like. However, it is not always that simple.
In California (and other states), there are laws that protect employees' right to engage in lawful off-duty conduct, and provide monetary remedies to employees whose employment is adversely affected in violation of these laws. However, it is important to understand that these laws do not provide complete protection for all types of off-duty conduct. Off-duty conduct that harms or potentially harms the employer's business interests and/or involves a crime may validly be the basis for termination of employment. As is often the case with employment decisions, the individual facts must be considered along with competing legal and business interests.
In terms of applicable laws, let's start by debunking a popular misconception—that the First Amendment protects the free speech rights of all citizens and, therefore, it must be illegal for an employer to fire an employee based on something he or she said. Not true. The First Amendment generally does not apply to private employers. However, there are some other laws that do apply to private employers in California:
California Labor Code section 96(k) provides protections for employees who are terminated for "lawful conduct occurring during nonworking hours away from the employer's premises." This sounds pretty broad, but generally has been more narrowly interpreted by courts as applying to lawful off-duty political activity. Given its broad wording, however, it is possible that courts may expand its applicability to other types of lawful off-duty conduct.
The California Labor Code also has other provisions that expressly protect employee rights to freedom of political association. Labor Code section 1101 prohibits an employer from making, adopting, or enforcing any rule, regulation or policy forbidding or preventing employees from engaging or participating in politics, or from becoming candidates for public office, and from controlling, directing, or tending to control or direct, the political activities or affiliations of employees. Labor Code section 1102 prohibits an employer from coercing or influencing, or attempting to coerce or influence, employees through or by means of threat of discharge or loss of employment to adopt or follow, or refrain from adopting or following, any particular course or line of political action or political activity. Effectively, then, these two provisions prevent employers from interfering with or directing the political activities of its employees. This does not mean employers are without the ability to implement and enforce limits on the use of company equipment for political purposes and does not mean that employers may not limit political and other non-work-related activity in the workplace. Employers may do so. Employers also may prevent employees from posting content in forums that lead viewers to believe that the employee is speaking on behalf of the employer and/or in the employee's capacity as an employee. Employers also may take action based on observed unlawful conduct (even when it occurs off-duty).
Employers also should be aware that Article 1, Section 1 of the California Constitution gives each citizen an "inalienable right" to pursue and obtain "privacy." Additionally, section 980 of the Labor Code protects employee privacy in their personal social media accounts by prohibiting employers from asking employees for their social media log-ins and passwords (with limited exceptions). Thus, this law provides some privacy protection for employee social media accounts. However, this does not mean that there is privacy protection for an employee's public behavior or public social media posts. An employee understandably may waive any privacy by publicly posting content beyond a limited group of private followers.
In addition to California state law, employers should be aware that the National Labor Relations Act ("NLRA") protects certain types of employee conduct, whether or not the employees are unionized. Under the NLRA, employers cannot interfere with an employee's right to engage in protected concerted activity. This protection allows employees to communicate with each other about workplace issues (e.g. wages and terms and conditions of employment) without fear of reprimand, even if the communication occurs on social media. Thus, employers should keep in mind that the NLRA may view employee Instagram posts, direct messages, group texts, tweets, Snapchat groups, Facebook posts, sub-Reddit threads, etc. as concerted activity by employees who are communicating with each other for the improvement of pay or working conditions. However, not all social justice posts or political posts may be deemed sufficiently related to the workplace to be protected by the NLRA.
Questions Employers Should Ask Themselves Before Taking Adverse Action Against an Employee Based on Social Media Posts or Other Off-Duty Conduct
The reality is that most, if not all, employees have a social media presence. Many are making their views known in these forums. Others are caught up in angry tirades that are video or audio recorded and later disseminated, with or without their knowledge or consent.
An employer's decision to make any sort of policy or employment decision based on social media posts or comments, or other political activity, needs to be carefully considered in light of potentially applicable laws and competing areas of litigation exposure and/or effects on business. Employers also need to consider whether they have consistently applied company limitations on the challenged conduct in the past. Allowing some forms of similar conduct while disallowing other forms may lead to an increased chance of employee success in a legal action challenging an adverse employment decision as unlawful. With this basic understanding, before taking action, employers should ask themselves:
Will this employee's posts/comments/activity affect my business, and why do I believe it will? (There is a difference between actual harm to your business and simply disagreeing with another's perspective.)
Does the activity violate a company policy?
Have I consistently enforced this company policy in the past?
Is the policy "current," meaning is it still legally compliant and does it still fit the times we are in? (If not, you may want to reevaluate your policies.)
What is the employer's investigation policy?
How did the employer learn of the employee's off-duty conduct? Was it done in a way that could be considered an improper invasion of privacy? What actually is the specific activity that is potentially problematic? (Be sure to document the investigation and the decision-making process.)
What is the company's discipline policy with regard to employee policy violations and what is the next action indicated by that discipline policy?
What are my choices for responding?
How will any adverse employment decision (or a decision to take no action) affect my company morale and potentially the reputation of my company?
How will this employment decision be perceived by the general public and our customer base if it goes viral?
How important is it? Meaning, how do I weigh the importance of each of these issues to my organization, and what is my risk tolerance for potential diminished morale and exposure to litigation?
Disciplining employees for off-duty conduct has become increasingly challenging. It creates legal risks, morale risks, and other business risks, including the potential loss of customers/sales. However, sometimes NOT disciplining employees for such conduct exposes companies to the same risks. These guidelines should help in the decision-making process. Before taking action or coming to a final decision related to an employee's off-duty conduct, California employers should consider reaching out to their legal counsel for advice on how to proceed and consider all of the surrounding issues.

'Extreme fire behaviour' of Blazed Creek fire forces road closure on main southern route to Alberta.
Aug. 11, 2018 2:40 a.m.
A wildfire burning near Highway 3 about 26 km northwest of Creston, shut down the main southern route to Alberta for several hours on Saturday.
The Blazed Creek Fire has been highly visible from the highway for several days, but the fire situation changed Saturday afternoon prompting the road closure.
Later in the day the closure was changed to a travel advisory from the junction with Highway 6 to the junction with Highway 21.
A detour is available via Hwy 6 to Nelson, and Hwy 3A to the Kootenay Lake Ferry.
That stretch of highway is already congested however due to the Shambala Music Festival taking place near Salmo.
The lightning-caused fire was discovered Tuesday, August 7.
In the last 24 hours it has grown from an estimated 60 hectares to 500 hectares due to weather conditions including strong winds.
Southeast Fire Centre information officer Ashley Davidoff says the fire is exhibiting extreme fire behaviour.
"BC Wildfire Service recommended the closure of Hwy 3 between Salmo and Creston as power lines and a transportation corridor are in the area," explained Davidoff.
Ground crews, heavy equipment and helicopters were on scene earlier in the day, but had to be removed due to safety concerns.
The Blazed Creek fire was discovered Tuesday, August 7 two kilometers north of Highway 3 and about 26 km northeast of Creston.

Life has been rather crazy in the past few months. Approaching the end of my university career, I went into overdrive when it came to writing my first novel. The good news is that I can report that I have completed the first draft of my novel! It is currently in the editing process and I am now working on a new cover for the book. Hopefully I will be able to publish it by mid-June to late-June.
Now on to something interesting I realized at the end of my writing process. While I was writing, I always had the constant fear that I was not writing enough, that while I wrote in MS Word, that the pages were insufficient for a average novel. Even as I reached the end of my novel, the doubt was ever present. But when I changed the margins and font to match the average size of a novel, I found that I had actually written far more than I ever expected! Thankfully this makes the editing process as I can focus on cutting the excess that doesn't add enough to the book.


I am so delighted to present you the Personal Channeled Drawing Series I did for the wonderful Laura Hollick from Soul Art Studio. Over the last months I channeled these images for Laura to receive guidance and spiritual insights for her Nü business and life.
It was a new growth in my own practice as a drawing medium to hold Laura's specific questions and intentions while I was channeling the images. I am truly amazed how I have been able to deepen my trust and surrender to this creative practice growing my capacity to hold the space for a succesfull creative-spiritual entrepreneur which keep surprizing me in the way images manifest.
For many years Laura has been a guiding north star for me, through embodying her creative power in service of awakening and creative activation. She has modeled for me how I can truly own my creativity in the unique and fulfilling ways as it flows through me. She is a benevolent mentor and highly attuned to her own spirit and that of her tribe.

Ottawa has set aside $50 million over the next five years to support local news organizations in "underserved" communities, struggling to cope with industry-wide disruption brought on by internet giants such as Google and Facebook.
"That's a bit of a Band-Aid solution," said John Hinds, the CEO of News Media Canada, who fears it may be too little, too late.
The government said it will provide the money to "one or more independent non-governmental organizations," which will have full responsibility to administer the funds, respecting the independence of the press.
Hinds said his organization had proposed a $350 million annual journalism fund that would allow the government to subsidize individual journalists at publications providing civic or local news. The fund was meant to support news coverage in thousands of communities that aren't reached even by the CBC.
The budget also says the government will be "exploring new models that enable private giving and philanthropic support" for non-profit journalism and local news.
The budget announcement follows a lengthy consultation process that saw Heritage Minister Melanie Joly listening to a slew of proposals to help the ailing industry.
The Public Policy Forum called for a tax on foreign companies selling digital subscriptions in Canada and a $400-million fund to finance journalism. The House of Commons heritage committee recommended in June that the government establish a five-year tax credit for print outlets making digital investments.
Canadian publishers have also called for a level playing field for online advertising, arguing that American tech giants have an unfair advantage. Local advertisers in Ontario, for example, don't have to pay HST when they advertise with U.S. companies like Google and Facebook, but they do when advertising in their own province.
Joly's office has also floated the idea of "modernizing" the Canadian Periodical Fund to take into account "original editorial content expenses," which would include online news.
In September, the government's culture strategy included a $125 million deal with Facebook to set up a news incubator at Ryerson University and a $500 million investment from Netflix to produce content in Canada over the next five years, but didn't have much to say about Canadian journalism.
Critics of the various rescue plans say the government would only be supporting broken business models, as print journalism continues to grapple with plummeting revenues. As advertisers have moved from print to digital, technology companies such as Google and Facebook have attracted the lion's share of marketing budgets.
In response, newsrooms have shrunk and local newspapers and newscasts have struggled to survive. Hinds says Canada has lost about 16,000 journalism jobs in the past 10 years.
Paul Godfrey, the CEO of Postmedia, which publishes the National Post and daily broadsheets in many of Canada's largest cities, said he supports the News Media Canada plan because the money goes directly to journalists doing quality work.
The government's plan is "very disappointing," he said.


One in three moms struggle to provide babies with an essential requirement—clean, dry disposable diapers. Huggies Every Little Bottom (ELB) program addresses the issue of diaper need, which refers to the lack of an adequate supply of diapers for the daily needs of an infant. Moms experiencing this issue often have had to cut back on food, utilities or child care in order to provide diapers. Lacking clean diapers has an emotional and physical impact on babies, who are more likely to develop diaper rash, show signs of discomfort, and become difficult to manage.
Recognizing the scope of this problem, the ELB campaign was created to help provide diapers to those in need. Huggies is partnering with The Association of Junior Leagues International and other nonprofit organizations to raise awareness. By partnering with local diaper banks and national organizations, ELB is committed to raising awareness, generating support, and helping get diapers to babies in need.
In 2010-2011, the JLCM collected and distributed over 3,000 diapers to local nonprofit agencies. Together with the Junior Leagues of Georgia, combined over 10,000 diapers were distributed to babies in need. For the 2018-2019 League year, the JLCM teamed up with Cobb Diaper Day. Contributing over 5,000 diapers and 100 volunteer hours for this one day event, the JLCM helped collect and distribute 100,000 diapers to those in need.

This is the story of Buddy Holly, an American music legend. Buddy was born on September 7, 1936 in Lubbock, Texas. Early in his career, the young musician was met with resistance as radio stations wanted to hear country and not this new sound, called rock and roll. This is just like the issues that the DJ in Memphis faces as he tries to play rock and roll on the radio in Tennessee. In order to perform and record his music, Buddy traveled to New Mexico to meet with Norman Petty to produce his music. It is there that Buddy recorded most of his iconic songs.
The play foreshadows his upcoming death by his wife saying she dreamed of a fireball in the sky. They also talk about the crazy blizzard happening on that fateful night. It leads up to the radio DJ announcing his death on February 3, 1959. The show then immediately launches into a loud rocking song and the audience isn't given time to process his death. The transition is too abrupt, just like in You Got Older. A slow sad song would have been a better choice. "American Pie" by Don McLean, which is about this tragic accident, would be perfect and would have allowed the audience a chance to grieve the loss of this talented musician.
The cast is fantastically talented. The acting and musical talent is exceptional. Zachary Stevenson plays Buddy Holly perfectly. The actor nails his guitar playing and his vocal style. Shaun Whitley (Million Dollar Quartet) is solid as one of the Crickets. It's a very exciting moment when he stands on his standup bass while playing it. Ian Paul Custer (The Columnist, Little Shop of Horrors) is a delight as the radio DJ.
The music is absolutely excellent. Performances include "That'll Be the Day", "Peggy Sue", and "Everyday" by Buddy Holly. Also included are "La Bamba" by Ritchie Valens and "Chantilly Lace" by The Big Bopper, the two other musicians that died on that tragic flight.

This a movie review of THE GOOD DINOSAUR.
Pixar making a dinosaur Western might have been a spectacular idea had the filmmakers gone down the route of HEAVEN'S GATE: An animated revisionist epic tackling heavy themes. The creative powerhouse was already up against a cartoon Wild West gem in RANGO. For the first time, Pixar has delivered two films in a single year. Coming off one of their best, INSIDE OUT, unfortunately quality control has not reigned; THE GOOD DINOSAUR rivals CARS 2 and BRAVE as one of their nadirs. Storytelling here ranges from the tired to the bizarre. It is unclear why this project was not put out of its misery a lot earlier in its gestation period; a not unprecedented move, e.g. NEWT was axed.
Existing in a parallel universe, imagining the meteorite that killed off the dinosaurs 65 million years ago missing Earth, we meet a modified collection of the planet's inhabitants millions of years later. Henry (Jeffrey Wright) and partner Ida (Frances McDormand) farm their isolated homestead – the Western tropes begin. They are apatosauruses (from the genus of sauropods that include the diplodocus and brontosaurus), who we witness plough the land, with their… face. Eh? Yes, head is dragged along the dirt. They are herbivores. We are meant to buy the evolution from eating treetop leaves to growing corn. They have somehow fashioned huge bowls neatly dropping seeds into the furrows. Er… they don't have opposable thumbs or hands, how did they fashion the bowls? Why are they bothering with corn? Why only corn? Even CARS has more attention to detail.
- Arlo, the focus, is timid.
Henry establishes himself as a wise role model, telling his children that they must do something bigger than themselves to earn their mark. Of course, Arlo is too weak-kneed to do so, and must learn to be a man-dinosaur to complete the trite character arc.
Assigned to kill a "critter" stealing their winter store from the corn silo (yes the apatosauruses have built one), Arlo cannot bring himself to execute the caught human boy thief. Letting him go triggers tragedy. Parental loss is gut-wrenching in the likes of THE LION KING and BAMBI, especially for their surprising inclusion. THE GOOD DINOSAUR signposts demise, not only robbing the moment of pathos but invoking the idea of cynical emotional manipulation.
Arlo ends up being swept far away from his home via a powerful river. The plot then kicks in: Arlo's journey home. How many prehistoric animated films have the arduous trek narrative? Clue: THE LAND BEFORE TIME, DINOSAUR, THE CROODS and ICE AGE. Exactly. Yawn.
The odd bods met along the way are so character malnourished as to barely register as cameos. And random. T-Rex cowboys (no way as cool as that sounds), cross-eyed triceratops (no way as cool as Triceracop from KUNG FURY) and brutal pterodactyl baddies – they prey on animals who have survived after storms. What the hell?! In a better project, those villains would have provided the kind of merciless, bottom feeder adversaries who add nightmarish nihilism to the plot. Here, the pterodactyls are an incongruent harshness.
THE GOOD DINOSAUR, a movie as meaningless as its title.

In April, Miss Bates followed a discussion about the question of a romance canon. The debate began with a thorny Salon article which, nevertheless, inspired interesting responses. For Miss Bates, said article was of minimal regard: its noblesse oblige attitude towards the genre ensured she stop reading by first paragraph's end. The responses, however, were a boon: the always fearlessly incisive Vacuous Minx, no-nonsense sharpness and smarts of Wendy the Superlibrarian, perspective of Love In the Margins, take of Romance Novels for Feminists, and Jody at Momentum Moonlight. Miss Bates, though agreeing with these points of view, found Jody's stance the most helpful because it summarized the problematic nature of canon setting/launching/exploding and offered an alternate term and means of pointing to seminal texts in the genre. Jody defines "iconic" texts as those which "affect the genre in a meaningful way." Simple, direct, flexible, and workable. Miss Bates borrows Jody's term "iconic" to identify "affective/effective" romance texts, such as Heyer's, subject of her present post. Jody's definition implies that iconic romance texts are those to which other romance texts accrue. They represent something important to the genre, not that they are necessarily meritorious in and of themselves, though they may very well be. They're a hub; other texts are the spokes. They're texts around which discussion occurs. (Sometimes, they may be denigrated, or rejected texts, representing things we don't want to see in the genre, such as elements found in Old Skool romances.) They may change; more may be added, or forgotten, as the genre develops, grows, or regresses. Time is the only given. Miss Bates also thinks that the genre benefits more from pointing to an author, rather than individual texts, to identify an iconic moment in it. Heyer would certainly be present in such company.
Miss Bates loves the 1963 film, Love With the Proper Stranger, Angie Rossini and Rocky Papasano's one-night-stand story (Wood and McQueen are wonderful). Angie lives with her widowed mother and brothers and is constrained by their control over her life. In an act of rebellion, she sleeps with Rocky and thereafter realizes she's pregnant. Angie seeks Rocky to ask for help to pay for an abortion and he agrees. They spend several days together making arrangements. Two things happen: the day of, in a place sordid and frightening, Rocky stops Angie from going through with the abortion; and, Angie and Rocky reluctantly grow to know and like one another. There's no insta-love. Rocky begrudgingly asks her to marry. Angie refuses and, yes, he has a hard time with that. It spurs his interest, however. (Another aspect to the film that is interesting is how Rocky and Angie want to escape the stifling atmosphere of their overly protective but strong-on-the-family-loyalty Italian-American clans.) The film ends with Angie's "upper hand." The possibility of an HEA is there, but not the surety. Angie is vindicated. Miss Bates loved Angie: determined to forge a life for herself, uncompromising in her desire for love and independence, resolved to marry on her terms, not her family's or Rocky's, or not marry at all. She is fearless and glowingly beautiful mama material, this Macy's shop-girl barely scraping a living.

Steelers' Dri Archer Could take on "Darren Sproles" Type of Role
FantasyFootballChick March 19, 2015 Fantasy Football, FFCOriginal
We really did not see much of the Pittsburgh Steelers now second-year running back Dri Archer on the field last season. However, that could change as the team wants to include him more in the lineup in 2015.
According to offensive coordinator Todd Haley, he had this to share regarding what we may expect see from Archer this year (via the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review).
The important thing is that we do have a role for him if he is going to have a helmet on Sundays and he gets his five and six touches a game.
Archer, super-speedy and just 5′-8″ is truly one of the quickest players in the NFL. Unfortunately we saw very little of Archer, who had only 10 carries for 40 yards and seven catches last year. If given the opportunity to play in a similar role to that of Philadelphia Eagles' running back Darren Sproles, Archer could bring some dynamic quick plays into the game this year.
Coupled with the Steelers' lead workhorse, Le'Veon Bell, who should not lose much too many touches to Archer, the Steelers' ground attack will be a mighty force to slow down this upcoming season.

Opinion: Android with Chrome OS would deliver true "Continuum"
30 October 2015, 12:12 p.m.
Wall Street Journal reported this morning that Google plans to merge Android with Chrome OS next year, which isn't the first time we've heard such rumblings. The rumours have split opinion, but I'm excited for the potential which merging both operating systems could hold for the future of personal computing.
The world is now dominated by mobile, and developers want to build apps for the most lucrative ecosystems. Over the past decade this has caused a big headache for Microsoft who missed the mark in mobile and let Apple and Google dominate the arena with iOS and Android.
Microsoft in recent years has debuted some brilliant ideas – including "universal" software and "Continuum" for a seamless transition from mobile to desktop – but struggled to attract those all important developers needed to build a thriving ecosystem.
Google, on the other hand, has focused on building a huge mobile platform with Android which already spans multiple form factors. On the side, the Mountain View-based tech giant has built a capable and cost-effective laptop/desktop operating system in Chrome OS which has become popular with students and professionals needing power-efficient devices which cater for basic productivity needs and web access.
Both of these platforms are ready to merge, and it seems Google agrees. In fact, some companies such as Jide – with their Remix OS – have built ways to use the wealth of Android software in a traditional PC-like environment similar to Chrome OS. With full disclosure, yes I'm a backer of the Remix Mini.
There's little dispute this has been what Google has been working towards for years. Back in 2009, Google co-founder Sergey Brin said that Android would "likely converge over time" with Chrome OS. Last year, Google started bringing a few Android applications over to Chrome OS. This year, Google debuted a new Android-powered Pixel C laptop/tablet hybrid and built some hidden multi-window functionality into Android M.
But compared to previous years, this year's Android update was relatively minor which suggests Google is hard at work on something much bigger for next year. Delivering on Microsoft's ambitious vision of converging mobile with desktop could be that project, and would be another reason for Google's complete lack of support for anything related to Windows and mobile.
Google, on the other hand, has focused on building a huge mobile platform with Android which already spans multiple form factors.
The vision, as I see it, would be similar to "Continuum" which Microsoft announced for upcoming Windows Phone 10 devices earlier this year. The feature allows you to dock your phone for it to become a full PC with monitor, keyboard, and mouse support. Google would allow similar functionality but for Android devices, and offer Chrome OS as the PC-like experience.
Where the Microsoft version of this vision falls down is the lack of Windows 10 apps. Android however is abundant with them, and even features Microsoft's industry-standard Office productivity suite. You could argue most Android software will require tweaks in order to cater for a PC-like environment, but I'm sure most developers will provide these considering the new capabilities it would provide.
For now it seems both operating systems will remain separate in terms of marketing, but closer together when it comes to software. Hiroshi Lockheimer, Android and Chrome OS SVP, said on Twitter: "There's a ton of momentum for Chromebooks and we are very committed to Chrome OS. I just bought two for my kids for schoolwork!"
I'm excited for the potential of Android and Chrome OS becoming closer together. Microsoft blew minds with their "Continuum" and universal app demos, but it's only Google or Apple in today's mobile-first world that have the actual ecosystem to deliver such a grand vision. Whoever delivers it, a lot of people's devices are going to become a lot more productive.
Would you like Android to merge with Chrome OS?

And with there being long shot of energy costs coming down in the future now is the time to get your house insulated before the cost of insulation product or services also increases.


Monday April 23, it's going to happen. According to a new theory the Rapture will occur this Monday. God and I think Jesus will come to Earth. A three-headed beast will fly down from the sky ... well it's all in the bible, you can read it for yourself.
So, if the world will end this Monday, who would you want to spend your last moments with? If I think about it, it would be my parents. But no such luck as they are already dead.
So for me it would be ... no one. I would like to face the end alone.
Who would you want to be with when the end comes?
All the hours you spend at work and all the stuff you have accomplished in your job, maybe die at work? No, you would want to be with your family, your kids, your wife.
So, while I hate these predictions of the world ending on such a day in time, it's kind of okay because it makes us stop If even for a minute to think of what is important in our lives ... not cars, or money, or work ... but family.

Kriti Sanon on being taken 'seriously' as an actor following success of 'Mimi'
The actor shared how the 'emotionally heavy' scenes in the film satisfied her as a performer
Entertainment Desk December 05, 2021
After the massive success of her Netflix film Mimi, Kirti Sanon believes people started taking her "a lot more seriously as an actor." The film follows Sanon's character Mimi volunteering as a surrogate for an American couple, with the actor starring alongside Pankaj Tripathi.
Speaking to a media outlet, the Times of India reported the Raabta actor as saying, "After Mimi, I got a lot of calls and messages. People started taking me a lot more seriously as an actor, and it's something that I felt after Bareilly Ki Barfi released because before that I had done glamorous roles. Bareilly Ki Barfi was a little de-glam, people saw the actor in me more than my appearance. I remember seeing a certain shift in the kind of projects I was getting after that. With Mimi, I think it's amplified."
Speaking about the emotionally demanding nature of the character, Sanon shared, "The character was also emotionally heavy in the second half. I think those scenes satisfied me as an actor. I like being challenged and being in a situation that scares me, makes me nervous and makes me wonder how to do this."
Stressing that while she wishes to add more genres to her portfolio, she continues to enjoy being a part of entertainment-centric films. "When an actor does a film that is centred around a female protagonist and gets praised for it, the tendency is to get drawn towards more such projects only," she explained, adding, "I don't want to get typecast with any kind of limitations. I feel like taking more risks and trying something new. I want to give my audience something different to watch. And I will do so, but yes, that won't stop me from doing other kinds of films. I want them to see me in all colours."
She elaborated further, "I want to be in a completely massy entertaining film and at the same time, I also want to do a film that has a strong message and says something important that I believe in."

Q: How to format textual output with whitespace like tabs or newline? I am somewhat experienced in python, but i have never really had to format my return of a function.
This is my desired format:

This is what my output is currently looking like:

I have been researching how to use escaped whitespace-chars like \t, and I know about \n from C++, but I am unsure how to implement these functions.
I have been trying to use \t and \n, but have not gotten my desired result.

A: Something like this should work:
words = [
    ('THE', 30062),
    ('AND', 28379),
    ('I', 22307),
    ('THAT', 11924),
]

def print_words(all_words, limit=19):
    totwords = sum([y for x,y in all_words])
    print("Total words:", totwords)
    print()
    print("Top", limit, "words:")

    words = all_words[:limit]
    maxlen = max([len(x) for x, y in words])
    for word, count in words:
        print(f"{word:{maxlen}} {count}")

print_words(words)

where
print(f"{word:{maxlen}} {count}")

means print word, and use maxlen characters, then print count.

How Valuable is the Croatian Passport?
in Latest
Global consulting company Henley & Partners have published an index of the best and worst passports in the world to have when it comes to free access to other countries, with the Croatian passport placed in a solid 26th place out of 93 passports ranked.
Seven out of the worst 10 passports to have in terms of international travel freedom come from Arab or Muslim states, with Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Pakistan, Palestine, Eritrea, Nepal, Sudan, Sri Lanka and Lebanon making up the bottom 10.
"Almost all countries now require visas from certain non-nationals who wish to enter their territory.Visa requirements are also an expression of the relationships between individual nations, and generally reflect the relations and status of a country within the international community of nations," Henley & Partners said in a statement on their website.
Finland, Sweden and the United Kingdom topped the 2013 freedom of travel index with a score of 173, followed by Denmark, Germany, Luxembourg and the United States. Croatia was just ahead of Costa Rica, Venezuela, Serbia and Paraguay on 129 points, and just behind Brazil, Chile and Argentina. The Slovenian passport was best ranked in the former Yugoslavia with 155 points.

Sandra Witt, DrPH
March 10, 2014 by Jessica Yen
Dr. Sandra Witt spent 14 years at the Alameda County Public Health Department, where she played an integral role in pioneering health equity practice. She worked on programs and policies responsive to public health issues affecting County residents with the goal of eliminating health disparities. This work, along with her leadership in health surveillance, monitoring, and technical assistance, won her an Outstanding Manager of the Year award. Sandra is currently the Program Director of Healthy Communities (Northern Region) at the California Endowment, where she, along with the Senior VP of Healthy Communities and her counterpart in the Southern Region, oversees the implementation of a place-based initiative to strengthen some of California's most vulnerable communities. Her commitment to achieving social justice in public health, plus her insights and experiences in transforming public health practice to achieve health equity, make her an obvious public health hero.

You've worked on health equity practice from two different perspectives, a local health department and a foundation. Can you tell us a little about your work in each?
During my time at the Alameda County Health Department, we recognized that we could continue to provide needed services – and the community certainly needed services – but it was also important to figure out how we could change the social conditions that created the need for services and entrenched health inequities to begin with. We felt that the real focus of health equity is not just health disparities – the outcomes in health status – but rather the root causes that create those disparities. Today it is widely recognized that there are huge differences in life expectancy based on where you live. Your zip code matters. When we were starting this work we invested resources to get people to understand that the opportunities in place have a lot to do with how long and how well you live.
Currently I work at the California Endowment, where I'm the Director of Healthy Communities (Northern Region). We have a $1 billion, 10-year initiative that focuses on building healthy communities where children are healthy, ready to learn, and safe. The initiative selected 14 places across the state that had 1) poor health outcomes and social inequities, and 2) experience and interest in working together to solve community problems. We started with a planning process that created a space for community voice to shape community priorities. Each site came up with a community plan, which guides the Endowment's grantmaking on strategies that support efforts that meet the community's priorities to improve health.
Moving to the foundation was an opportunity to further the work we'd started at the health department to figure out how to support efforts, which change the social conditions that create poor health outcomes. The Endowment has an incredibly bold and big vision of what change can look like, which is exciting.
Often times, the residents that are most marginalized in our society are not included at the decision-making table or processes that directly impact their lives. They need to be included in shaping the solution. So equity and inclusion are core elements of how we think about this work. A key piece is recognizing which issues are important to our communities – especially ones that disproportionately affect low-income communities of color – and then raising the profile of these issues within our communities. Another piece is creating opportunities to educate policymakers about how these issues affect our communities and the health of our communities. Another key component of our work is focused on power-building — building the leadership capacity of adults and youth to advocate on their own behalf. We also foster collaboration so that people from different perspectives can come together to develop policy solutions.
For example, in Fresno the young people raised the issue of school suspension and expulsion. They felt that these disproportionately impacted young men of color and we know that suspensions and expulsions can contribute to a trajectory into the criminal justice system. So we supported organizing to bring attention to these issues within their communities. The Endowment's statewide policy branch also realized that these concerns could be addressed through statewide policy. State and local advocates worked together to identify positive school discipline practices and policies. One of those practices is implementing restorative justice, which can bring down suspension rates quite quickly. After a lot of organizing by our local and state partners a number of state bills passed that addressed suspensions and expulsions in schools.
If you only think about health in the context of the doctor's office, you miss opportunities to affect the many other factors that impact a community's trajectory to good health, like school discipline policies and practices.
I've heard you speak about "health equity practice." Can you tell us more about that?
Public health departments, as they stand now, are not really set up to focus on broader social conditions. So when we think about transforming public health practice to address health inequities – what we call a health equity practice – we have two grounding principles. First, in all the work that we do, we should think through how policies or practices impact health inequities. This helps us think through where to focus first. Second, we ask if there are processes for the people who are most impacted by these decisions, to have the opportunity to participate in shaping the solution. Those perspectives and lived experiences are key to the conversation. You need to think about both if you want to engage in practices to address health inequities.
Health equity practice is part of a broader public health move to change the social conditions that impact health. Poor health outcomes often concentrate in particular places. Place is where you live, work and play and shape the opportunities you have to be healthy and productive. This analysis was key in leading us to recognize we have to focus on changing the social conditions that create these inequities. In health equity practice, we're looking for ways to change policies and practices in institutions that work in education, housing, transportation, economic development, etc. so that everyone's health can be improved. A core component of health equity practice has to be focused on creating and institutionalizing mechanisms for the most marginalized to participate in decision making on issues that impact their health and well-being.
Let's say I'm working in a health department and want to widen my health equity practice, do you have any suggestions for how we might go about doing that?
I can share how we did it at Alameda County. At the health department, we were very intentional about working directly with residents and community organizations in areas that had the lowest life expectancy. These communities identified their priorities, and we partnered with them to bring in other partners to address those issues. So that's one place to start. In our work at the Endowment, as well, we've started with what communities, residents, and community based organizations identify as the priorities.
There's an internal piece of this work and then there's an external part of the work. A big piece of equity and inclusion is understanding the historical legacy of racism and how that impacts our communities. The health department invested in the development of a curriculum for all staff to understand these topics. We covered: What is public health? What is the broader environmental and political context within which health is produced? And why do certain neighborhoods look the way they look? What are the historical reasons or policies and practices that we, as a society, put in place, which created the opportunities for some and disadvantages for others?
This built a shared understanding within the health department. At the same time we worked with communities and learned from those experiences as well. If we don't look at what we do as an institution and identify how we create barriers to inclusion and perpetuate inequities, we cannot reach our goal of achieving health equity. You don't end up working with the community. You think you're doing things for the community, but really you're doing things to the community.
I don't want to underestimate the importance of this step. It requires leadership and willingness for honest self-examination. It also requires a willingness to understand how our processes have impacted our populations. It helps the organization understand hurdles to the work and what it means to build authentic relationships with the community and residents.
For the external work, when figuring out how to begin engaging residents and community organizations, one step we took was to tap into the assets of our own staff. At the health department, our staff came from all over, including many from these very communities. We created opportunities in-house for staff to talk to us about what was going on in their neighborhoods. We showed them the data, but we also wanted their reflections about : What's going on? If you were going to talk to somebody, who would that be? Are there organized groups there? Are there CBOs we should link with?
Honestly, I think we sometimes forget our staff and our internal resources. For example, community outreach workers are in many communities, and they became essential for putting us in contact with folks whose houses they regularly visited. Through those kinds of connections we could begin to go out, meet people, create opportunities, and pull people together for community meetings. In many of our communities, particularly our most marginalized, historically things have not changed. There's a lot of distrust of systems– appropriately so as there has been a history of broken promises. Part of the process is developing a relationship with residents and getting a better understanding about what the realities are.
We also wanted to think about the assets of local communities. So we visited a lot of churches, for example. In one of our communities, we reached out to a school principal to coordinate efforts around fielding a community survey to identify priorities. Every year, the principal asks her teachers to go out and meet her students' parents because she wants her teachers to understand the community that her students live in. We wanted to do a community survey. We already had a group of residents who shaped the questions in our survey. So she teamed her teachers with our health department staff and community folks to administer the door-to-door surveys together. That was a powerful partnership – with residents and between public health and the educational system.
This work is really big and can sometimes feel overwhelming. I think it's important to break it down and figure out where to start. The truth of the matter is that there are multiple entry points into this work depending on where your health department is and where the communities are.

Q: Why is there a scrollbar at the bottom I was experimenting with Zurb Foundation for a certain project, and for my page I used this.

Laurem Ipsom Dolor

Laurem Ipsom Dolor

Laurem Ipsom Dolor

Here is a working example: https://jsfiddle.net/f7kb9x6n/
So why is there a scrollbar (why does it exceed page width) at the bottom for medium and small screen sizes (example jsfiddle window which is usually quarter of a screen)
centered class just does a margin:auto, but shouldn't be of concern here as I haven't even defined it in the jsfiddle.

A: Based on the Zurb docs you have to nest the second .row inside a .columns like in this fiddle forked

A: You shouldn't nest a .row inside another .row, direct childrens of .row should be .column (or .columns, whatever do you use), this markup should work for your case:

Laurem Ipsom Dolor

Laurem Ipsom Dolor

Laurem Ipsom Dolor

To answer why this happens, is because negative margin the .row apply to compensate the column gutter (spacing between columns). Please don't edit the CSS rules for .row .row, you'll be messing the Foundation grid.

A: It is from your external css file.
Reason:
  .row .row {
     margin-left: -.625rem;
     margin-right: -.625rem;
     max-width: none;
   }

Remove margin right and try.

A: .text-center {
    overflow: hidden !important;
}

Use this. It's working

His entire family worked together and hard to take care of JJ - driving him to Duke - sometimes up to three times in a week, helping him keep up with school, and being a strong system of support for him. They quickly lost their sense of a normal life.
Thank you so much for sponsoring the Myrtle Beach Trip. We are so grateful and appreciate all the hard work and effort put into setting up the accommodations and making this vacation a complete success. This was one of the most memorable experiences of my son's life. I can't begin to express what your gift meant to me and my family.
But more than the monetary value, I so greatly appreciate the thought behind the gift. This time has been difficult for us, but knowing we have the support of people like you certainly helps. Our time at Myrtle Beach was one of the best we have ever had. Not to mention this was our very first time ever going to the beach...I just want to thank everyone who made this possible.
This vacation was something my son really needed to keep from thinking about the next doctor's appointment, blood test, spinal tap, etc. I have not seen my family this happy in a while. This was as normal as it has been for the last two years. JJ and Printice were able to run and play and get as dirty as possible while loving every minute. JJ loved the water and thinks he's a "Surfer Boy" now because he had a chance to ride the waves. He didn't want this to end, he said, "Tell everyone Thank You and I want to live here". Printice loved the sand as you will see in the pictures. My daughters and I loved absolutely everything. This was a time to remember as one we will never forget. One word to describe the vacation we had is "PERFECT". Illness can be a burden at times but your actions have really lightened the load for me. This was something I wanted to do for my family now for such a long time but was unable to do...For that especially, I thank you. With the help of you and the foundation, I was able to go on a vacation with my family. A special "Thanks" to everyone for the wonderful vacation. Your generosity is greatly appreciated. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart.


Concordian: What do you think of the recent external review of Concordia's governance?
Shepard: The PricewaterhouseCoopers external review was the next and, I think, last chapter in this part of the university's history. They seem like reasonable recommendations to me. The goal here is to bring more transparency to the governance process.
The external review is tied to something called the Shapiro Report, when the Board of Governors invited Bernard Shapiro and two colleagues in several years ago. That was an important move for Concordia. It took a lot of courage to invite someone else in and do an audit of governance. There were more than 40 recommendations made, virtually all of which have been adopted by Concordia.
Concordian: How is the university preparing for the loss of money from the tuition fee increase? What measures have been taken?
Shepard: No measures have been taken yet. The loss of the increase, in the short term, is only about 0.8 per cent of the total operating budget. We don't know whether the government will be restoring that money to us in a different way. My pledge is that if we have to, we will make changes to the budget which will not affect teaching and learning. I don't think that would be fair to do.
Concordian: Has the Parti Québécois contacted the university at all with regards to the repeal?
Shepard: We are, of course, in regular contact with the government, but no instructions about that have been sent yet.
Concordian: According to a recent news report done by The Link, some international students at Concordia are being treated poorly. What has been done to address this?
Shepard: There is an inquiry under way, being done by VP services Roger Côté. It shouldn't be a long process of months and months. We don't want to jump to conclusions, whether this is an isolated or widespread issue. I've asked [Côté] to report back to me in a few weeks.
Concordian: Do you have an overarching goal for the year?
Shepard: What I would like to restore to Concordia is its internal trust in itself. It's a strong place. It's a place where many things are going well. We are going to work with the community to unleash the potential of Concordia. There's no reason why Concordia can't be known as one of the best universities in Canada.
Concordian: What firm plans do you have in mind to make this happen?
Shepard: I'm really interested in helping Concordia figure out how we're going to be a university for the next generation. I think our research side has really developed over the years. What hasn't kept pace is how the teaching and learning technology has advanced.

Is Your Beard a Face Mask or Respirator Killer?
Cut the Beard for Better Face mask Protection
As you know, there's a serious shortage of protective masks and respirators for doctors, healthcare workers, first responders, and patients. So, don't spoil a perfectly fine mask with your facial hair. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has warned that facial hair may interfere with the effectiveness of face masks and respirators used to combat the spread of diseases such as coronavirus. Why? Your beard-do makes them leak.
And, they've made a fantastic respirator infographic (suitable for framing) with 36 illustrations of beards and mustaches. And they've given them each a handy moniker for reference. If you're sporting a Circle Beard, Lampshade, or a Van Dyke, get outta here. But Balboes, Zappas, and Walruses are welcomed with open arms. The stockpile of masks is so low that some doctors and nurses are making their own. This has pushed production to go rogue. A student in Florida uses a 3-D printer to make his. And, in Cincinnati, there's a group of more than 6,000, including Biotica's Susan Abramovitz, that sews them at home. They're free to the users, too.
The CDC advises that the masks do not prevent COVID-19, but they do tamp down the spread of the virus with people already infected with the virus, says the CDC.
Would you like to make masks?
The New York Times has step-by-step instructions for mask assembly. Most hospitals and healthcare organizations accept mask donations. Just google "donate facemasks (your city), and you'll get an organization near you.
Stay safe and healthy.
Note: respirators need to fit more tightly than masks thus the beard prohibition.

Top 10 Jeju Sites for NovemberFor Your Sentimental Autumn Spirit, An Eleventh-hour Jeju Proposal
It's November, a time when the autumn wind reaches its peak and a sentimental spirit appears with the cold winter ahead. The air is now rather chilly. The land is carpeted with leaves. The fields of silver grass wave in the wind. How about enjoying the island's deep autumn scent? Embrace the autumn inside you and you will feel your heart overflow.
Discover a new you on the trail Olle Route 6
Sometimes we find ourselves in unfamiliar territory. We feel confused when we discover a new side of ourselves. This is the moment when we need time to take a walk, clear our heads, and face our inner selves. If you want to immerse yourself in contemplation with the help of the autumn mood, your best option would be Olle Route 6. It goes from Soesokkak Estuary to the Oedolgae Jeju Olle Tourist Center and takes about four or five hours. The route, covering the coastal areas of Seogwipo, starts as an even coastal walk near the blue sea, passes the slightly steep Jejigi Volcanic Cone and the refreshing Jeongbang Falls, and continues to Lee Joong-seop Street in downtown Seogwipo. Along the way, the smooth coastal wind will cool you off. This year's Jeju Olle Walking Festival, which involves Routes 5, 6, and 7, is held from Nov. 1 to 3. It's a nice opportunity to discover a new you.

A stroll in a village where the autumn is deep Susan 2-ri Eco Village
Autumn returns every year. However, its two or three month stay is all too short. One of the places where you can savor Jeju's deep aroma of autumn for a little bit longer is Susan 2-ri Eco Village. The village, appreciated for its well preserved, clean nature, is located at the end of Geumbaekjo-ro, where the blossoms of silver grass glow like the stars in the sky. At the village entrance stands a observation platform shaped like a ship that offers a gorgeous panoramic view of the golden fields, Gotjawal Forest, neighboring volcanic cones, and scattered windmills. Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere at 'Susan Hanmot Pond' inside the village. If you climb to Nangkkioreum Observatory, you will see Seongsan Ilchulbong Tuff Cone in the distance. Why don't you get out of your car for a second and listen to the sounds of nature breathing in Susan Village, all tinted in autumn's splendor?

The countless tears have become red leaves'The Secret Garden' at Hangpaduri Hangmong (Anti-Mongolian) Historic Site
Jeju Island is only about 1.8 percent of the total area of the Republic of Korea, and yet the tears its people have cried are overwhelming. The island still holds the blood and tears that were shed from the people in the late 13th century when Goryeo's military regime collapsed due to a Mongol invasion. At that time, Sambyeolcho, a resistance group, fought against the Mongolian troops on the island until their end, and the islanders suffered under Mongol rule for about a century. Hangpaduri Hangmong (Anti-Mongolian) Historic Site, where the main defense facility of Sambyeolcho was located, currently displays the fierce struggle of the time with its exhibition halls and excavation sites. The land inside the earthen fortifications of this historic place show seasonal changes, and in autumn, "The Secret Garden" opens its doors. The Spindle Tree Forest, whose leaves start to turn red at the end of October, reaches its peak by early December. The graceful yet mournful red leaves may remind you of the tears shed by Sambyeolcho and people of Jeju. This autumn, embrace the opportunity to take the patriotic spirit of our ancestors with you along with beautiful photos.
A hill that offers a trio of the sky, forest, and seaDeulleongmoru Hill
How would it feel to meet the shimmering sea, a cloud-filled sky, and a pristine forest together in one place? This breathtaking experience is possible on a small hill in the middle of a mountainous area in Seogwipo. Hidden in Seohong-dong, Deulleongmoru Hill (which means a hill with a hollow rock on the top) is a marvelous place with a splendid vista. If you pass through the green tunnel made by a rare bamboo forest in Jeju and walk up to the point where you see a dolmen-like stone, you have reached the top. Stand on the stone, and you will see the sky above you, a forest below your feet, and the coastal waters and downtown Seogwipo in front of you. On a fine day, you can see Gaksi Rock, Gogeunsan Mountain, and Beomseom Island on your right, and Jejigi Volcanic Cone, Seopseom Island, Munseom Island, and Sammaebong Peak on your left. A cool autumn day is the best time of the year to enjoy the beautiful trio of nature provided by this small trail.
It disappeared into the flames, but will never leave our memoriesBeopjeongsa Temple
Did you know that the people of Jeju, who lived separate lives across the sea, wanted as strongly as mainlanders to be free and protect the country from Japanese occupation? Though March First Independence Movement is commonly known as the beginning of the anti-Japanese movement, the Beopjeongsa Anti-Japanese Resistance Movement in October 1918 actually predates it. The monks of Beopjeongsa Temple organized an anti-Japanese movement with civilians, and after two days of protest, they were eventually suppressed by the Japanese authorities. To visit Beopjeongsa Temple, take the side road next to the Birthplace of the Beopjeongsa Anti-Japanese Resistance Movement signpost, which is on the way to the nearby Dongbaek-gil Information Center of Hallasan Mountain. Only traces of the temple remain, as the building was burned down by the Japanese. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Beopjeongsa Anti-Japanese Resistance Movement. Stroll along the trail painted with red autumn foliage and think about the noble spirit of these patriotic martyrs. To remember them forever is to thank those who sacrificed themselves for the country.
Some things you can only see when you take a step backwardOjo Port
There are certain things that can only be truly appreciated when you take a step back and look around. On this autumn trip to Jeju, experience the joy of looking at the distant scenery. The small port of Ojo Village, which adjoins Seongsan Village, is the perfect place to take in a full view of Seongsan Ilchulbong Tuff Cone, designated as a World Natural Heritage Site. While you look at the peak shimmering in the autumn sunlight, boasting its magnificence beyond the sea, different feelings will arise from those you felt when you were standing on the peak. Once you have experienced the distant view, it's time to look at the surroundings. The wooden deck that connects the port and adjacent Siksanbong Peak makes you feel as if you are walking across the sea. With its tranquil and relaxed atmosphere, Ojo Port offers a calm feeling. Why don't you take a step back and think about your worries in a broader view at this place? The difficulties you are facing might just appear trivial in the big picture of your life.
Open your heart and follow the silver grassSangumburi Crater and Jeongmul Volcanic Cone
As the autumn chill grows, it is not the colorful leaves that touch our hearts but the silver grass whose fluffy blossoms bloom above their golden stalks in the fields and mountains. The reason may be that the simple grass, gathered together to withstand the strong wind, remind us of our lives. This place is always considered as one of the best spots to see silver grass on Jeju Island. In fact, since the reeds cover the whole volcanic cone, the place offers a fantastic view of the silver blossoms waving in the coastal wind. Among the many volcanic cones known for their silver grass, two recommended sites are Sangumburi Crater and Jeongmul Volcanic Cone. The former offers a comfortable walk with its well-constructed trail, as well as an opportunity to see taller grass. The latter provides you with a photogenic view of the sunset and silver grass. In November, open your heart and follow Jeju's silver grass to the pinnacle of autumn.
Take in a spoonful of Jeju's scentIndependent bookstores and souvenir stores
Are you looking for a way to take the romantic autumn scent of Jeju with you? If so, you should visit the small but well-stocked independent bookstores and select shops that sell Jeju-inspired handmade souvenirs and accessories. Independent booksellers Like It and Book Time welcome visitors with books that have been curated by their owners' sentimental taste, and showing their affection for the island, both bookstores devote one section of their stores to books on Jeju. Arts and crafts stores The Islander and Jestory are full of various souvenirs, so you easily lose track of time in either of the stores. You can have fun finding something that matches the feelings you had in Jeju in these stores since they offer a wide range of household items, stationery, fashion accessories and souvenirs inspired by various elements of Jeju such as haenyeo (women divers), dolhareubang (rock statue), ponies, and camellias. We hope you enjoy a sense of bliss from a spoonful of Jeju's scent.
Throw yourself in the arms of Jeju's sky and paint your own dreamParagliding
Autumn shines brighter with its clear sky. Everyone has had dreams of flying, and that dream can come true on Jeju Island. The island, which has numerous volcanic cones and wide plains, is perfect for paragliding. Run down a slope at the top of a volcanic cone and the wind will then send you off into the wild blue yonder. Jeju Island, viewed from the air against gravity, appears to be an entirely new world. It is impossible to describe how you will feel in the sky, close to the clouds. It will be a good experience to keep in mind the island's vistas from above. (Paragliding is available at the Geumak, Gunsan, Sororeum, Seoubong Gliding Sites, but weather conditions at each gliding site will be a determining factor.)
Small but filling, the best protein sourceTop shells
There is a Jeju proverb that says, "Top shells are also meat." As top shells, a type of marine snail, could easily be collected on the coast, they were an important source of protein for the inhabitants of Jeju Island. Lately, top shells have been in the spotlight. Their flesh is tender and has a slightly sweet, agreeable taste. Their shells are removed after being washed, and their flesh is used in cooking. It is said that people in Seogwipo often ate top shell soup with seaweed and broth made with the massaged flesh of boiled top shells. As it is widely known to be good for protecting the liver and stomach and relieving hangovers, top shell soup seems to be preferred as a restorative soup. Noodle soup with top shells, top shell rice porridge, and top shell pancakes are popular top shell dishes. The slightly bitter and sweet taste of top shells appeals to people of all ages. If a warm meal comes to mind in the chilly autumn wind, a perfect choice is one made with top shells.
