Ruritan History Committee | History | About | Holland District Ruritans - Fellowship. Goodwill. Community Service.
The 1950 "History of Ruritan National" by Kent, Myers, Byrum clearly relates that Gwaltney founded the Mother Club and Downing spread the Ruritan Idea to other communities. Ruritan National acknowledged and published this factual history, but it waS not widely distributed. Over the years as Downing continued to share his story of "Ruritan Beginning", more Ruritans believed that he must be a "Co-Founder". Downing fervently embraced this Ruritan "Co-Founder" recognition. Thus began the Ruritan "Co-Founder" myth.
In 1961 the Ruritan National President appointed a special Ruritan History Committee, Chaired by Past National President Frank Kellam, and tasked to determine who foul1ded Ruritan, either One Founder Gwaltney or Co-Founders Gwaltney and Downing. Committee Chair Frank Kellam wrote letters to early Ruritans who might have any knowledge of the Ruritan Beginning. Through these letters and personal visits, Kellam and the Committee organized a Founder Evidence File which grew in size and much renown. The Committee was reappointed in 1962, 1963, and 1964. By early 1963, the National President requested that the History Committee give a report to the National Board of Directors. Chair Frank Kellam agreed to a preliminary report, but preferred more time before giving a final report.
Kellam knew that the Committee's file contained sufficient evidence to report who founded Ruritan, and hoped that a preliminary report would provide just enough "pressure" to get that one critical evidence letter still missing. Committee Chair Frank Kellam gave a preliminary report to the National Board of Directors in August 1963 at which time JJ Gwaltney was offered Honorary Life Membership on the Board. National Secretary Tom Downing heard this report. The decision was made that sufficient evidence existed for the Committee to make a final report to the Board of Directors and the 1964 National Convention. There was even talk that this Convention might be "The Jack Gwaltney Convention". So where was Tom Downing in all of this? That was the "pressure" Frank Kellam needed. Days before the Convention, and to not be left behind during the Jack Gwaltney Recognition, Tom Downing wrote a letter on January 13 to History Committee Chair Frank Kellam affirming that Jack Gwaltney founded the Holland Ruritan Club, and that Ruritan National should give him an award for the work he did. This was the missing evidence letter Kellam wanted, an affirmation from Tom Downing that Jack Gwaltney founded the Holland Club, hence founded Ruritan. The Founder Evidence File was now complete and ready for the Committee's official report to the National Board and the National Convention. Gwaltney would be recognized and honored. However just be fort! the Convention, Gwaltney became seriously ill; he could not attend/and be personally honored. It is not known what agreements were made among Ruritan National Leaders, Tom Downing, Frank Kellam, History Committee, but all "Jack Gwaltney" announcements and honors were held in abeyance: no History Committee report to the National Board of Directors and the National Convention, no recognition without Jack Gwaltney being present. After the Convention, Jack Gwaltney died.
The 1964 Ruritan National Convention brought a new President to Ruritan National and a most important and demanding agenda of locating, designing, funding and building a new Ruritan National Office. This new National President also had his own "personal agenda" in Ruritan, for which he needed "unequivocal support" from Tom Downing and Ruritan National Leadership. Jack Gwaltney was dead. There was no pressing-need for this National President to request an official report on who founded Ruritan, so the History Committee became dormant. Tom Downing remained as Ruritan "Co-Founder". By the end of the year, the History Committee was no more. With no formal report, the Committee's Evidence File including Tom Downing's letter, remained in Frank Kellam's possession. Only Tom Downing and Frank Kellam knew of Downing's letter affirming Jack Gwaltney as the only Founder of Holland Ruritan Club, hence only Founder of Ruritan. Frank Kellam-knew the power contained .in the Founder Evidence File. ft proved without question that Jack Gwaltney was Ruritan's only Founder, no "Co-Founders". Even though Ruritan National's 1950 publication "History of Ruritan National" clearly acknowledged that Ruritan had one Founder, JJ Gwaltney, and one Great Ruritan Missionary, Tom Downing, many Ruritans were not aware of this limited publication. And now, the Ruritan History Committee and its Founder Evidence File were also "history". Over the years and in the far background, Frank Kellam did use the power of the Ruritan Founder Evidence File to help bring more sensible solutions to challenges facing Ruritan (that's another story).


The refusal rate is the proportion of all potentially eligible sample cases that declined the request to be interviewed. Before calculating the refusal rate, researchers must make some decisions about how to handle the types of nonresponse in the calculation.
Household-level refusals: These refusals occur before the appropriate respondent within the household can be determined (either by random selection or other eligibility requirements). That is, the person refusing may or may not be the selected respondent within that household.
Respondent-level refusals: These are refusals that occur after the appropriate respondent has been determined. That is, the selected respondent has been identified and that individual is the one actually refusing.

Auditing the Audit
Most jurisdictions in Canada require the unanimous consent of all shareholders, including non-voting shareholders, in order for a non-distributing corporation to dispense with an audit. The requirement is absolute and mandatory – there are no other exemptions or qualifications. The public policy rationale behind the rule is laudable; however, the implementation in practice can be austere. It is time to revisit the universal audit requirement as it applies to non-distributing corporations.
The Canada Business Corporations Act, and its provincial counterparts, generally provides that shareholders of nondistributing corporations may resolve not to appoint an auditor provided that such resolution is consented to by all shareholders, including shareholders not otherwise entitled to vote. Although the Companies Act of Prince Edward Island is silent on point, it does stipulate however that the directors of every company shall lay before the shareholders a full and clear statement of the affairs and financial position of the company at or before each annual general meeting. In MacLeod and John L. MacLeod Transport, Consultant and Management Ltd. v. Murray and Murray, it was held that this requirement could only be satisfied by producing audited financial statements. In striking contrast to every other jurisdiction in Canada, New Brunswick permits, but does not mandate, the appointment of an auditor; moreover, if an auditor is appointed in any given year, such appointment may be dispensed with in the ensuing year by ordinary resolution (thus not requiring unanimity).
The underlying public policy rationale of the universal audit requirement is clear – investor protection, and in particular, the protection of minority shareholders. It has been held that shareholders (voting and non-voting) have a right to be informed, and have an independent assessment, of a company's financial position in order to inter alia enable shareholders to assess their investments (and management)on a continuing and consistent basis. The jurisprudence has routinely confirmed and upheld the sanctity of this right (including Merrill v. Afab Security; Labatt Brewing Co. v. Trilon Holdings Inc.; Smith v. ECO Grouting Specialists Ltd.; Runnalls v. Regent Holdings Ltd.; Barbour v. Jamestown Lumber Co.). In Discovery Enterprises Inc. v. ISE Research Ltd., it was noted that "The refusal of a company to deliver audited financial statements can serve to hide the true financial position from a minority shareholder."
However, universal application of this onerous requirement can have unintended and severe consequences, particularly on small, privately-held corporations. In many instances, an audit is unnecessary or the cost prohibitively expensive and disproportionate to the financial resources of the company and the value of a shareholder's investment. Audits can cost tens of thousands of dollars and paying the cost of an audit can leave a company with reduced or no profits to distribute to shareholders, or worse yet, further indebted. Ironically, the very application of the principle that is intended to protect shareholders' investments could in fact jeopardize their investments.
Since dispensing with an auditor requires unanimous consent, the fate of a company, and every other shareholder's investment (and return on same) in that company, could rest in the hands of a single shareholder, regardless of such shareholder's status as a voting or non-voting shareholder and regardless of the size of such shareholder's investment. As much as it may be unfair to a minority shareholder to deny an independent assessment of a company's financial statement, it is equally, perhaps more, unfair to the remaining majority shareholders to endure the consequences of such an assessment if otherwise unnecessary or uneconomical. The case law has held that a shareholder's motive in, and the financial consequences of, requiring an audit is irrelevant. Struck with the unwavering harshness of this rule, some justices have (rightly) tried to alleviate its ramifications. In Barbour v. Jamestown Lumber Co., Justice Handrigan wrote "I took this limitation into account by restricting the audit to Jamestown Lumber's most recent fiscal period. It would, in the circumstances here, be an unfair and unnecessary expense to the corporation and ultimately for its other shareholders to bear to require an audit for any longer period."
When compared with other leading corporate law jurisdictions, Canada's model of universality is draconian. Some American states (including New York and Delaware) do not require audited financial statements of private companies. In both the United Kingdom and Australia, statutory exemptions from audit requirements (based on revenues, assets and number of employees) are provided to small private companies. However, notwithstanding that a company may otherwise qualify for exemption from audit requirements, members (voting and non) of UK companies representing at least ten percent of the nominal value of a company's share capital, and voting shareholders of Australian companies holding at least five percent of the votes, may demand an audit.
Canada's ironclad audit requirement is ill-suited, imbalanced and disproportionate for countless small, private companies. A better balance between the rights of minority and majority shareholders is called for.

A beach bum who spent his Silicon Valley youth surfing and tending bonfires in the dunes (sometimes in lieu of attending school), the then 20-year-old fell under the spell of the sail that summer while in Mystic, Connecticut — a 19th-century mecca for merchant ships and whalers. The seaport's history-drenched maritime aura and impressive architecture was foreign to Arrow's "suburban mall rat upbringing," and it drew him in entirely.
After a few summers worth of crew work, Arrow considered himself a seasoned schooner sailor, but a brush with nature's fury dampened his assuredness. During a December delivery, for which Arrow and two other young men were hired to sail a yacht from Cape Cod to St. Thomas via Bermuda, the nascent crew was pitted against an unforgiving sea. A nor'easter demasted the vessel, which bobbed around for more than a day—with both the captain and other mate gripped with violent seasickness—before a Coast Guard helicopter rescued the men. "If we'd been an experienced sailing crew," says Arrow, "even with that bad weather, we'd have been fine." Arrow rattles off the lessons learned during that disastrous passage: Know with whom you are sailing. Know all preparation needs for the trip. Have a solid understanding of the weather patterns you'll face while underway.
Education became the true north of his wind-powered wanderings, eventually pointing him toward Charleston, where local shipwrights were completing construction of the Spirit of South Carolina, a 140-foot, two-masted sailing school vessel. Buoyed by Arrow's experience at the helms of more than a dozen famous tall ships, the South Carolina Maritime Heritage Foundation coaxed him to town. He arrived on a wave of praise from well-respected people within the national sailing community. The interview was a convergence of two dynamically established sailors—Arrow and the foundation's executive director, Brad Van Liew, who won the 2002-03 Around Alone solo yacht race—each with dramatically different fortes.
It didn't take long for Arrow to size up the ship's 2007 launch, and today the Spirit is an autonomous part of the foundation according to Van Liew. "Tony made us take out modern conveniences because he wants the kids to have a real experience. We don't have an automatic anchor; students have to haul it in by hand, and it can take them awhile," he says with a chuckle.
And with a mischievous funny side brought out by his favorite onshore hobby—improv comedy classes at Theatre 99—Arrow makes an even stronger connection with the youth on board. "He has a delightful sense of humor," attests Penn Hagood, a history teacher at Ashley Hall who coordinates the school's involvement with the Spirit of South Carolina Leadership Program, which enables 18 students and three teachers to participate in a year-long program that is capped off with a 10-day offshore experience.
The quixotic nature of teen sailors fuels Arrow's passion for sail training programs, because they are "still learning about life and have the capacity to see and experience things that will really affect the way they interact with the world." He likens the high schoolers' onboard experience—during which every participant must become an interactive cog in order for the ship to sail smoothly and safely—to a microcosm of positive society.

Planning your estate?
Estate planning arranges for the transfer of an individual's estate at the time of death. An estate consists of all property owned at death before it is distributed by will, trust, or intestacy laws. An estate may contain both real property and personal property. Estate planning allows an individual to decide exactly who will benefit from his or her estate, and to what extent. It can also reduce the taxes imposed on the transfer of assets at death.
An experienced estate planning lawyer can help minimize the amount of the estate surrendered to taxes as well as ensure that the management and distribution of the estate is carried out according to your plans. Particularly when your plans are complex and/or you have substantial property or assets, it is important to have an attorney who can ensure that your plan functions the way you intend. Depending on the complexity of your individual situation, your estate planning team may include attorneys, financial planners, bankers and insurance professionals. Some states certify attorneys as estate planning specialists, which means they have met certain requirements for experience, education, and testing in that field.
Fiduciary: A person or institution who manages money or property for another and who must exercise a standard care imposed by law, i.e., personal representative or executor of an estate, a trustee, etc.
Personal representative: The person who administers an estate. If named in a will, that person's title is an executor. If there is no valid will, that person's title is an administrator.

Once the residence has been cleared of the tenant's issues, it's time to focus on repairs. Evictees are often terrible renters (they had to end up being evicted, in the end!), and they can perform some pretty extensive harm to your property that must be repaired before you can rent it out again. Odds are you will probably have to replace the particular carpeting in the rental; few tenants leave un-damaged carpeting. If your former tenant had household pets, it is essential to exchange the carpet to get rid of all substances. However, when there has been any kind of damage done to the wall surfaces or repainting is necessary, save time and problems by keeping individuals old carpets and rugs installed to are the drop cloths while you fix and repaint. Once the fixes are done, split out and replace that old carpet. Conduct any needed maintenance upon appliances and fixtures, and start showing the home to be booked again. Superior luck along with your next renters! A good dumpster service will not make you stay waiting a while. They will start any kind of undertaking on the same day you contact them if you want. All you have to accomplish is create that mobile call.
Maybe you are renovating your child's room now that he or she is a little older and wants a more organized bedroom. You might want to add built-in shelves as well as a built in personal computer desk or even entire wall surfaces. New carpeting or wood floors may be on your own agenda also. You will have to engage a contractor to split out the previous carpeting and install the revolutionary carpeting. You will require to rent a dumpster to eradicate all the previous carpeting and debris.
A number of services that we buy that seem consequently run of the mill that this doesn't matter that we use. We physique that no matter who we use, the result is going to be pretty much a similar. The ones that instantly come to thoughts are things such as taxi taxis, flower shipping, plumbers, and so on. If you are carrying out any kind of restorations or main yard do the job, you might think garbage container rentals would certainly fall into that category too. Really nevertheless, with any sexual affair services you can find drastically spun sentences depending on whom you hire.
Spend is one of the major contributors of the environmental pollution on earth. Various commercial and residential projects complete contribute to the cause of polluting the. Few of all of them include construction projects, business cleanups, business remodeling, property renovation, property cleanup, lawn cleanup.
Materials, metals, raw lumber, yard squander, glass and might all be place into one box. Items that are way too large to be handled in your regular garbage can simply be thrown in without worrying about the size. This also helps you get those job done easily since you will not have to deal with distancing all the different items which would be necessary if they have been handled since recyclables.
Once you have chosen an appropriate container based on your requirements the company you choose will produce it to your house. You have to choose about the ideal location for the particular receptacle. If your receptacle is required in your home, where is the driveway. Most of the receptacles come with wheels and this allows to move all of them.
You may conserve pennies here, but it calls for large sum of money to be allocated to your health problems in your foreseeable future because disposing such a huge waste with self requires a lot of work, physical exertion as well as time investment as well. In addition to this you'll need to focus on transfer complexities as well as environmental friendly recycling connected with disposed squander if you are one who respects societal concerns of the nation. Development waste is definitely in huge quantities as well as occupies a lot of space. Daring to crystal clear construction squander on home not only uses your time but occupies your current free space for longer time period.
Then there are the lenders who are therefore focused on creating a low foundation price they've to add charges for such things as delivery, pick-up, saturday and sunday rates and so on.
If you know you need to rent some sort of dumpster, the first thing you should consider even before you approach a firm is the measurement you require. The length of the container will be driven by your needs, when too much garbage is being produced by the construction, you'll need something that will probably accommodate the item. The receptacles are available in a variety of sizes this means you need to advise the company concerning your needs so that they can recommend the right size. The size will also be driven by how large your current piece of property is.
As you are taking your dumpster or dumpster from the 3 Yard Dumpster Rental in Exchange, WV site, make an attempt to calculate how much demo materials you will end up with and get the proper sized dumpster. Weak hands and you may get to rent another one, as well as too big and it's really a waste of income. If you are doing exercises in the country and then there aren't a lot of bathroom amenities around, and then consider renting a conveyable toilet truck from the exact same 3 Yard Dumpster Rental in Exchange, WV company. Many carry these as well, as well as keeping your employees comfortable moves a long way in the direction of a smoothly running as well as efficient work site.
Dealing with a firm located close to your project possesses distinct strengths. One of these is because are more likely to keep in mind local rules covering needs for the environmental issues, in addition to logistic considerations including street fat restrictions that may lead to requiring you to use 2 ten lawn containers in lieu of one something like 20 yard box. This is a genuine issue, the one which you would choose to know about ahead of time, rather than by contacting your box supplier that's failed to appear late for the first day's your project, solely to find out which the driver went back to the lawn because he could not access your location. Another advantage of a nearby organization is that they have possibly supplied bins precisely that you need all of them, so they will probably anticipate these and other situations before that they become a difficulty. Finally, a close company presents less likelihood of delays a result of weather as well as traffic.

Beyond: Two Souls Trailer: Swallowed by Guilt
John Llewellyn Martin
The power to control Aiden and see the unseen weighs heavily on Jodie Holmes' soul in this new TV spot for Quantic Dream's Beyond: Two Souls.
The short TV spot lasts a little over a minute and features some dramatic strings in the background as Jodie tells us of her gift and the terrible burden it puts on her. Again, we see bits and pieces of Jodie's life, starting from her childhood spent being studied to her role as a CIA agent as an adult.
There's a lot of supernatural-flavored imagery in this trailer, at least much more than we've previously seen, so we're getting even more amped up to see what lies in the "beyond." It's dark, it's moody and it gets us psyched for the arrival of the game on Oct. 8. Watch the video above and decide whether or not you're ready to take on Jodie's trials and tribulations on the PlayStation 3.

"My 64" is the second single from Mike Jones' extended play The American Dream. It features rappers Bun B and Snoop Dogg. It samples "Boyz-n-the-Hood" by Eazy-E. The radio version doesn't feature Snoop's outro and the last chorus that follows thus the airplay single is 3:55 long.

The video for "My 64" was shot on April 19, 2007 and was directed by John "Dr. Teeth" Tucker. It features the artists driving through Los Angeles. One of the cars used is the same as the one Snoop made his entrance to the Video Music Awards of 2005 in.

"64'"refers to a 1964 Chevrolet Impala, which is pictured on the single cover. The car has long been a favorite of lowrider customizers.

NFL quarterback Vince Young appears in the video, in various scenes riding in the passengers seat of the Impala. Also, where Eazy-E is sampled, his son Lil Eazy-E lip-synches the words to his father's verse.

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro in Havana to Meet with his Cuban counterpart Miguel Diaz-Canel
By Jorge Legañoa Alonso/ ACN	 21 April 2018
By Jorge Legañoa Alonso/ ACN
Category: Cuba
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro
HAVANA.- We come to ratify that we are brothers and sisters and embrace Cuba, said Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro Moros who arrived to Havana Friday night on an official visit.
In statements to the press at the Jose Marti International Airport, Maduro said that he brings Miguel Diaz-Canel, new President of the Council of States and Ministers a hug of unity and goodwill between the two countries to work together.
Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla, welcomed the Venezuelan Head of State who was accompanied by the First Combatant, Cilia Flores and Foreign Minister Jorge Arreaza.
Maduro's agenda includes a tribute to Cuba's National Hero Jose Marti at Revolution Square Saturday morning and a meeting with Miguel Diaz-Canel, which will be the first public activity of the recently elected President of the Council of State and Ministers.
The Bolivarian and Chavista Head of State pointed out that Miguel Diaz-Canel was very clear in his speech at the 9th Legislature of the National Assembly of the People's Power.
Maduro added that he came to Cuba to ratify the joint plans and contribute to new ideas for integration to have a concrete sense for the peoples regarding the satisfaction of needs and development of science, technology and culture.
In his words to the press, Maduro thanked the Cuban Foreign Minister for his speech in Lima, Peru on occasion of the 8th Summit of the Americas and Cuba's position in the continental meeting.
When Bruno spoke, we all spoke, there was the force, from the dignity, he said.
We come with the absolute security that we will continue together, Cuba and Venezuela and what is ahead is even better, he concluded.
The Venezuelan ambassador Ali Rodriguez Araque and representatives of the diplomatic corps of the South American nation accredited in Cuba were also welcoming the President.
In the complex regional political context and the constant threats against the Bolivarian Revolution, Maduro Moros arrived to Havana for the first meeting with his Cuban counterpart since Diaz-Canel was elected President last Thursday by the 9th Legislature of the National Assembly.
Cuba reiterated at the 9th Summit of the Americas and more recently at the Parliamentary session this past week, the unconditional solidarity of the Venezuelan people with its legitimate Head of State, Nicolas Maduro Moros.
President Nicolas Maduro's new visit to Cuba will allow to follow-up the excellent and fraternal relations between both peoples and governments and continue the cooperation plans that began with Hugo Chavez and the leader of the Revolution, Fidel Castro.

The species is widely but locally distributed in western and northern Britain. It is rare or absent from most of southern and eastern England. It is widespread in western and central Europe, but has not been recorded from the Netherlands.
P. erratica occurs on walls and amongst stones. In Leicestershire it has been found in rugged heathland, scrubby acid grassland and ancient deer parks with over-mature oak trees, in each case with bracken a dominant feature of the habitat. The spiders have been observed stalking prey on rock surfaces and on an oak stump in bright sunshine, and they have also been collected from dead wood and under bark of old oak trees, under stones and in leaf litter (Crocker & Daws 1996). It also occurs on the trunks of Scots Pine in native Caledonian pine forest. Adults of both sexes are found from late spring to late summer, but mainly in May and June, with females occasionally recorded into the autumn.
The species seems to have suffered a long-term decline of over 60%.
Loss of old stone field walls in upland areas may present a threat to this species as does planting of acid upland grasslands with conifers but the reasons for the decline in this species are not obvious as the habitat does not seem to be threatened.
Protect and maintain stone field walls in upland areas. Ensure that acid grassland and moorlands are not replaced by conifer plantations. More focused research on the ecology of this species is needed to address its conservation needs.

Loyalty 360: Ctrl Alt Delete: Q&A with Social Media Expert Mitch Joel
Ctrl Alt Delete: Q&A with Social Media Expert Mitch Joel
By: Bryan Pearson, LoyaltyOne • 1360 views
When the loyalty expert sits down with the social media guru, everything we thought we knew about digital engagement is rebooted. Bryan Pearson, CEO of global loyalty marketing firm LoyaltyOne, interviews online authority Mitch Joel for a Q&A on how to build emotional loyalty in the digital world. Joel, bestselling author and president of leading digital marketing agency
Twist Image released his latest book, "CTRL ALT Delete," on May 21 and Bryan Pearson's newest book "The Loyalty Leap for B2B" will be available in early July.
Reaching consumers today may seem less a matter of human decision-making than digital science. Algorithms help us to identify consumer segments, while consumers adapt to new technologies and lifestyles faster than we can create an app for them.
The DNA of the business world has changed, some say. Fortunately, my friend Mitch Joel is the marketing geneticist who could unravel the reasons why and help us evolve beyond the change.
Joel released his latest book, "CTRL ALT Delete" on May 21. He took a little time from his busy travel schedule to talk about his upcoming book, the importance of workplace infrastructure and business purgatory.
Q: What do you mean by your book title, "CTRL ALT Delete"?
I spend a ton of time with executives from all over the world and from all business sectors, and when I talk about how they connect with consumers, there's this uniformed chant of, "We feel like we're still in hell." But from my perspective of running a digital marketing agency, we're in purgatory. Hell is when senior executives would say, "So Mitch, tell me why I need a website?" This was 15 or 20 years ago and they didn't know if the web was a fad or not. Fast forward to today, and they're asking, "Should I be doing mobile, should I be doing social, what should I do to bring loyalty into the mix? How do I make that all happen?" We don't see these technologies as a fad anymore.
So in my brain, "CTRL ALT Delete" was a euphemism to reboot – to think differently about business and how to adapt to the fundamental shifts that have already occurred.
Q: In the book, you describe a brand's presence in social media as an intrusion. How can a brand use Facebook or other social platform to create genuine loyalty?
The reason I speak of it as an intrusion is because brands didn't initially see social media as an opportunity to connect with real human beings. They were dragged into it kicking and screaming because people were complaining about the brand, and so the brands had to react. Brands still struggle with how to engage. But the simple reality is that the average person on Facebook has, I think, 200 connections. If you're under 18 it's closer to 500. That's a tight social unit. So how do you penetrate that? You have to create something that is going to be of value, and you have to create utility with features that indirectly connect the consumer to the brand. It has to be something people can use or you just contribute to fatigue.
Q: All of these forms of existence – digital and physical – can result in brand saturation. Do you have any examples of brands using a digital presence to ensure loyalty instead of add to the noise?
One of my favorite examples is an app called "SitOrSquat." Turn the app on anywhere in the world and it will show you where to find a clean bathroom. You can rate the bathrooms, comment on them, add a bathroom, or request that a bathroom be removed. You could even find out if a bathroom has a changing table. And it's all brought to you by Charmin, the toilet paper company owned by Procter & Gamble. So now when I go strolling through the aisle at Walmart, instead of tipping a 32-roll, $9.99 package of any toiler paper into my shopping cart, I've become a Charmin evangelist. And the best thing is the app doesn't displace traditional advertising or coupons; it adds to the utility. And these types of utilities actually transcend the digital realm to enter the physical world.
Q: Your book is divided into two areas, with one focusing on rebooting the organization and the second on rebooting the individual. Tell me about the latter.
"CTRL ALT Delete" addresses five massive movements that have changed everything we know about business. The reason I wrote the second part of the book, called "Reboot: You," is because regardless of these fundamental changes, we need to examine how we react as individuals. I am hiring people for jobs that didn't even exist when I started this business. Imagine what the disruption of these movements means going forward. We're going to be creating new industries, new opportunities. At the core of that we have to figure out how we – as employees, as employers, as entrepreneurs – operate in that dynamic environment.
Q: If you could narrow the "must-do" list to three, what steps would you advise organizations to take in order to become digitally effective?
First, create spaces that encourage multidisciplinary collaboration. You might have a front-end developer who has a really good, strategic mind. By limiting him to front-end development you aren't using his whole brain. You want an environment that reveals what is happening in other departments. Conversely, there are introverts, people who need areas to work and think as well. So you need to create physical spaces that accommodate both types of workers.
Two, I think vision comes from the top. The evangelists are everywhere, so we have to empower our teams to understand the social media guidelines and what is expected in the public space. We hear about the negative instances, but the best stories are actually the positive ones, when workers know what they can and should do to make the business better.
Third, embrace people who bring professional diversification to the business. We use to look at a resume and think, "Wow, this person jumps around a lot." But if I see they jump a lot because they've had a good beginning, middle and end, then I'm all for it. It's fanciful to think that we're going to get the gold watch after sitting in the same job for 40 years.
These three steps break the dogma a little, but we live in very different times.
Q: Mitch, what is your motto today?
In a nutshell: test small. We tend to think of business as requiring bigger moves. But testing small things every day will lead you to the bigger opportunities. And it will result in a better customer experience.

Spituk Monastery
Built in the 11th century by Lha Lama Changchub-od's elder brother, Od-de, Spituk is one of the most arresting monasteries in Leh district, Ladakh. Overlooking the pristine Indus river that flows nearby, Spituk is located atop a hill, 18 kms from the main Leh city on Srinagar road. The site of the monastery was earlier blessed by the Arhat Nyimagung.
Famously known as Spituk Gompa or Pethup Gompa among the locals, the monastery offers a bewitching view of nature to its visitors.
Translator Rinchen Zangpo had announced during his visit to the place that it would have an exemplary religious community. Hence, the name, Spituk—which literally translates as exemplary.
Tourist attractions at the Spituk Monastery
Spituk is a three-chapel monastery, which plays host to the Gustor Festival that happens in the eleventh month of the Tibetan calendar every year. The three well-known shrines of Spituk are Stok, Saboo and Sankar, which are managed by Skyabsje Bakula Rinpoche's believed reincarnations.
The gompa is home to 100 monks and a huge statue of goddess Kali. The deity's face is shown during the local festival period only. The main shrine has an idol of Lord Buddha and a huge throne of Dalai Lama inside.
The Spituk gompa attracts both devotees and tourists worldwide. History buffs love to visit it due to its gigantic collection of antique masks, thangkas (pious Tibetan silk paintings), icons of Lord Buddha, and arms.
Skudung Lhakhang
The most breathtaking structure inside the gompa is the Skudung Lhakhang, which has somewhat Chinese-looking up-turned corners to its gilt roof. The old dukhang has a yellow-hatted statue of Tsongkhapa (1357–1419). Tsongkhapa was the founder of Gelukpa Buddhism.
The prayer hall also has a Tsepame statue, which is believed to have arisen from the nosebleed of Tsongkhapa.
The Jokhang
Jokhang is a small gompa, which is a branch of the Spituk Monastery. The upper Jokhang has a statue of Jowo Sakyamuni with a golden crown. It is said that the statue was brought from Lhasa after the Chinese invasion.

Now that I finished my big summer/fall race (my first 50 miler), I have my sights set on the remainder of the year…and even next year (…too soon?!).
As I have mentioned a few times already, I am now in training mode for the Kansas City Marathon on October 21st!
Even though I just finished my first 50-miler, I am now set with my training plan for the next 5 weeks leading up to the Kansas City Marathon!
Check out why I think you should run the KCM and what I am looking forward to this year! I am super excited to see more of KC since I have only ever run and paced the half marathon. Plus, with the major course changes, I will be seeing more of KC than ever before!
Have you registered? If not, you totally should and use the offer "BIBRAVE17" at checkout for 15% off your KCM distance of choice! Not ready for a marathon? Register for the 5K, 10K, or half marathon distances too!
If I see you on course, I'll be sporting the BibRave ORANGE!
Similar to last year, I will be pacing the 2:45 finishers at the Kansas Half Marathon in Lawrence, KS on Sunday, November 5th!
My running pal Angie is running with me and I hope I can get her to a new half marathon PR! Both of our hubs will be running their first 5K – so we will be able to all meet up at the finish line later – or we will pick them up at a brewery after our race… Either way! It should be a great day!
Check out the highlight video from last year!
The course has changed quite a bit this year, so I look forward to seeing some new sights in Lawrence. Other than the Hawk out at Clinton Lake, I don't stop and look around much in Lawrence – more of a pass through town to get home when we go to KC.
While there is a lot of time to think about next years races…I have my sights set on two big ones!
Yeah, I recently (yep, just a couple weeks ago) finished my first 50-miler at the Hawk. But something is calling me back…for more time and more distance…and more…of a lot of things! While I still have a couple months to ponder the 100 mile race distance (registration doesn't open until December), I am confident that I will be back at the Hawk next year!
What does your fall race schedule look like?
Do you run similar races each year?
Check out the link-ups with Tuesday on the Run, Wild Workout Wednesday, and Running Coaches Corner crews and see what everyone is talking about this week!
My family runs our own Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning. It's just the 4 of us and we go for a family run in the park. However, this year we got invited to an event with a group of friends, so we'll be running a lot of miles that morning!

With Even Tough Women Can Crack Like Eggs Sometimes entering the world on November 22nd, I want to take a moment to thank the lovely and phenomenal woman who has signed on to edit all my writing stuff. Hahaha!!!
On July 3rd when I was guided to write Even Tough Women Can Crack Like Eggs Sometimes, I hadn't a clue it would turn into my debut novel. Although, I didn't, my Creator did. I had other plans – don't we all? : / It is good to make plans but we know what happens when we do. Something goes awry. I was not "in control" with this decision. Nor have I ever been in control despite fooling myself into believing that I could alter the landscape. How did that work out? Not so great. I decided for this chapter of my life to "go with the…

Let's keep this going too. Trying drawing a screenshot from any game you wish and posting it and see if everyone can guess what it is. Draw as crudely as you wish, just don't make them completely unrecognizable.
It's clearly Bulletstorm and MGS1, geez!
I knew MGS. It was more the... interesting choice in scenes that confused me.
Pretty sure it's Mortal Kombat.
Epke, all I can think of is Lunar Jetman. I'm sure I'm wrong though.
I'll try to make something, but Idk when.
I'm glad people are enjoying this. :) Here are a couple more I did.
Wow, Strider looks really good. Can't place the clock tower one unless it is Clock Tower.
Nope, damn i thought it was easy!
Brisby the second one, Prince of persia?
The first one is still a mystery it seems. It's a popular game on the DS.
It's not the 1st Professor Layton is it?


Before I arrive in each new place, I often daydream about what is soon to come. Any film that is going to see it's day in the sun is going to have to have a film rep. Often times going above and beyond to make their children happy, even without pay. Therefore, PTO should not be viewed as something that will encourage employees to take unnecessary vacations, which they may not have taken if there was no pay for those days. Inside, the card states, "They never leave our hearts. So sorry for the loss of your precious dog." There is a grayscale closeup of the pairs faces on the interior left side of the card as well. A smaller, black and white cropped selection of the cat graces the left side of the card's interior. My third tip is book a coach tour to which you can add a side trip. 300 hour yoga teacher training in India understands the character of the physical, delicate and formless universes into the infinite on the far side time and house, and shows us however these conjointly exist at intervals every human individual. As an example, "through" shows them that you're proceeding involving a couple of defenders so that you can get a move.
