Networking has long been a cornerstone of professional success. In this technological era, much of it now happens online - which is why websites are critical tools for professional organizations.
The Georgia Public Health Association is a network for public health professionals, with hundreds of members across the state. GPHA hosts an annual conference each spring which is great for face-to-face interaction. But in the intervening months, it's still important to stay in touch with current members, and recruit new members as well.
GPHA is a long-time client of Heideldesign, and wanted to begin 2018 with a design refresh. The organization was looking for a more modern aesthetic, better content organization, and a way to showcase its online journal, jGPHA.
The result is a new WordPress site with more white space, better utilization of photography with a home page slideshow and featured images for news posts, as well as a custom layout for the online journal. In addition, the home page now has a dedicated banner for posting updates about the conference, as conference promotion is one of the most important functions of the site.
Public health is a rapidly advancing industry, and GPHA needed a website that reflected its evolution too. The new site is fresh and professional, and will keep members connected all year long.

I've been noticing some discrepancies between (local) form fill out reports and the amount of program members. I attached two screenshots that show that the form fill out report says 7 fill outs, but a smart list I created says there is only one lead that meets the criterion "filled out (local) form".
Does anyone have any idea what the cause of this can be?
Are the leads that filled out the form -- for example, test leads -- still present in your database? The statistics page is incremented but never decremented.
I can only see 1 test lead still present in the database but I'll ask my colleague if he filled out the form more than one time with the same email address. It would count these as separate form fill outs right?
That's correct, those will be different fillouts from the perspective of the Statistics page.

Q: Issues with OpAmp gain and instrumentation amplifier (Packaged and designed)

simulate this circuit – Schematic created using CircuitLab
Currently I have the following configuration using the LM358 single rail supply OpAmp. Each individual resistor value has been checked and I am currently receiving both the 15V rail source and the V1 from the same power supply (With both having a common ground).
In simulation I am showing 12.16V output on VoutFinal, but when testing the circuit I am seeing the following results:
Input -> Output
.1V   -> 2.02V
.2V   -> 5.00V
.3    -> 7.82V

I'm confused, not only are these not the gain I should be getting but the outputs seem to get a different result as the input is changed. What do I seem to be missing?
On the topic of instrumentation amplifiers I had (Burned it unfortunately) and INA128P instrumentation op-amp which required dual rail supply. When I had hooked up the OpAmp to a power supply with dedicated + and - Voltage ports I was able to input .01V and get 1V output (So correctly obtaining the 100 gain of the opamp).
Then when I attempted to use an op amp with no dedicated + - voltage and instead tie - to GND (So then + port is outputting positive 15v) and then tie + to GND (So - port is outputting negative 15v). Not only were I not getting any good results but it messed up the chip.
What am I missing? My ultimate goal is to get a high gain (60-100) while reducing noise as much as possible and having a stable output which an instrumentation amplifier is ideal but I'm a bit lost.

A: You have wildly complicated your circuit, assuming your symbols mean what the schematic indicates.
First, an instrumentation amp would look like

simulate this circuit – Schematic created using CircuitLab
You show the upper amplifier, which produces OutInv, as being connected to the same ground as R3 and R9. Under these circumstances, OutInv is forced to ground (plus the input offset of the op amp), so you could profitably get rid of the op amp. Furthermore, a gain of 100 is perfectly reasonable from a single op amp, so you could do the whole thing with 1 op amp, as George Herold suggested. A simple version would be

simulate this circuit
This will have a nominal gain of 101. Since an LM358 has a maximum offset voltage of 7 mV, you could have an offset error of 0.7 volts.
Let's assume, though, that the two input grounds are instead a separate ground, isolated from the output ground by some common-mode voltage. In this case, you have connected the upper op amp incorrectly. R1 should be connected to the - input of both amps. However, if you do this, you'll have gain of about 220, rather than 100. The equation for gain for an instrumentation amplifier (assuming R2 equals R3, R4 equals R5, and R6 = R7) is$$G=(1+\frac{2R_2}{R_1})\frac{R_6}{R_5}$$ Alternatively, depending on the output impedance of V1, you could simply use a single op amp set up as a difference amplifier with a gain of 100. You've shown the V1 as a voltage source, so this seems perfectly reasonable.
If you're worried about a stable output, I assume you're worried about noise from the input. This is best handled with an RC filter between V1 and the input.

A: Well, R3 at 100 ohms is the killer to me. The LM358 can only output typically 20mA and into 100 ohms that's a voltage of 2 volts. Don't expect to get much more. Go-on tell me that was a circuit error in your question.

An Orchestral Concert
5GB Daventry (Experimental), 2 September 1928 21.00
From Birmingham
THE BIRMINGHAM STUDIO AUGMENTED ORCHESTRA
(Leader, FRANK CANTELL )
Conducted by JOSEPH LEWIS
THE Sea Pictures are five lyrics by various X authors set to music for contralto and orchestra by Sir Edward Elgar , and brought together as one ' cycle.' They are also brought together by the delicate, remote feeling of the poems, which have the sea more as a background than as a spectacular object, and by the sensitive, thoughtful music. Sabbath Morn at Sea tings of the hymn of the waters and the skies eo their Creator.
The Swimmer, a vivid seascape, gives us a swimmer's glimpse of'a grim grey coast and a sea-board ghastly,' and expresses his aspirations to ride the ' brave white horses.'
... as never a man has ridden.....
To gulfs foreshadow'd through strifes forbidden,
Where no light wearies and no love wanes....
In this song are reminiscences of themes from the first and third songs of the set.
IT was odd to give the name ' phæton ' to the elegant light carriage in which ladies used to take the air in the park. The original chariot or phæton—a car of fire-was a very different vehicle. The youth Phaeton, having been allowed by his father, the Sun, to drive the fiery chariot, lost control of the steeds. The fiamig car was in danger of sotting the earth on fire, when Jupiter hurled a thunder. bolt, saving the universe but destroying Phseton.
This is the legend which
Saint-Saens illustrates in his orchestral piece.
A dignified introduction of four bars prepares us for the magnificent scene of Phaeton's ride. The galloping horses are heard, and a bold, imperious theme on the Trumpets and Trombones presumably stands for the youthful ardour of the charioteer.
A broadly melodious passage, played by four Horns, may suggest either the Sun or the lament of Phæton's sister, who had harnessed the horses, and so had a part in the disastrous adventure. The pace increases and the excitement is worked up. Phseton's theme is heard agitatedly, and then the thunderbolt falls, and tho end comes with the Sun's lament for Phæton.
WE should be sorry to lose such lovely tunes as the Londonderry Air, in which everybody delights, and Stanford's way of keeping such things in memory was a good one. He wrote a number of orchestral pieces, each founded on two or three folk tunes of his native Ireland.
This First Irish Rhapsody brings in an ancient tune, Lsatherbags Donnell , to which the warriors once marched to battle, and then the well-known Londonderry Air, just spoken of-probably a tender love song of the far-off days.
Leader: Frank Cantell
Conducted By: Joseph Lewis
Unknown: Sir Edward Elgar

A Viking House at the Millennium Museum: Fact or Fiction?
Like York's famous Jorvik Centre, the Millennium Museum in Scarborough enthusiastically celebrated the town's supposed Viking origins.
Above: A waxwork Viking making tools at the Millennium Museum (source)
Below: A similar exhibit at the Jorvik Museum (source)
The museum's waxworks and wooden scenery included a Viking house, complete with a family of inhabitants, illustrating the alleged founding of a settlement in Scarborough by the Viking raider Skarthi.
Skarthi, otherwise known as Thorgills Ogmundarson, is said to have given the town it's early name – Skarthaburg, from which modern-day equivalent Scarborough is derived. More recently alternative claims have indicated Anglo-Saxon origins, with the town's name referring to 'the hill with the fort'.
Above: The Viking connection even inspired Scarborough rides, such as the one above from 1987 (source)
Indeed, in spite of the popular belief that Scarborough was founded by Vikings – there is little firm evidence to support this claim. Certainly there seems to have been various early settlements in the area, dating back to the Bronze and Stone Ages – and a Roman signal station in the fourth century.
Above: Details of another Roman signal station in nearby Filey (source)
Although Scarborough's pre-Middle Ages colonisation is unclear, parts of North and East Yorkshire certainly received visits from Viking raiders. As already mentioned, York has created a popular museum inspired by early Scandinavian invaders, whilst Hull had a speedway team named after them.
Above: Hull's speedway team alluded to the city's Viking history (source)
Likewise, Scarborough RUFC has also adopted 'the Vikings' as its moniker. Certainly, the idea of a Viking Scarborough is an appealing one, not least given the glamorisation of Vikings by popular culture and legend. They are often depicted as fierce, savage warriors, complete with horned helmets, long blonde locks and primitive weapons – popular inspiration for fancy dress costumes and films.
Above: Viking stereotypes in an Asterix cartoon feature film (source)
Historical sources unsurprisingly paint a more complex picture – for instance weaponry was much more sophisticated than the crude hammers and axes brandished by cartoon characters and Hollywood actors in traditional epics.
Above: The Vikings (1958 film) – plenty of fighting and basic weapons (source)
Nor did all Viking warriors have blonde hair – whilst this is thought to have been the ideal (some bleached their hair), their exploits across various regions (including establishing settlements as far away as North Africa and Russia) resulted in a diverse population. Indeed, the term Viking itself refers to one participating in a seafaring expedition, rather than denoting a specific geographical region of origin.
Above: A Viking sailing vessel at the Viking Ship Museum in Oslo, Norway (source)
Given this propensity for travel, it is of course plausible that Vikings may have at one time passed through or even settled in Scarborough. It is also plausible that these claims are exaggerated – tourism websites proudly profess this Viking heritage without the backing of substantial evidence. Indeed, it is thought that the link was originally made back in the 1960s – a reference to an 1000 year old Icelandic/Viking Saga.
Above: Section from an Icelandic Saga – these prose histories described events in the tenth and eleventh centuries and earlier (source)
Regardless of who settled in Scarborough first, and when, the Millennium Museum no longer offers any argument either way. The exhibits, which also included King Edward I's castle (complete with loo and smell machine!) were sold and the attraction closed down in 2001.
Above: The real Scarborough Castle – once owned by King Edward I, who held court there on several occasions (source)
History itself is never completely objective – tourist organisations and businesses in particular have strong investments in popular myths and legends. After all, these stories bring people (and their money) to places such as Scarborough. Stories From Scarborough aims to explore some of these tales – not necessarily to separate the fact from the fiction, but to demonstrate that myths, legends and misconceptions are just as much a part of history as archaeological finds and official documents.
Do you have anything to add about the origins of Scarborough? Is the Viking story a myth? Did you ever visit the Viking House in the Millennium Museum? Share your thoughts below.

Theater Under the Stars Moves to the Shamrock
By Michael Callahan on February 29, 2016 at 5:00 AM
February 29, 1976:
On this day, construction was under way for the new Theater Under the Stars Cabaret Theater at the Shamrock Hilton, and according to Frank Young, executive director of TUTS, the hotel's old continental room was being transformed into Houston's "most sophisticated theater" – a two hundred and fifty thousand dollar theater even more technically sophisticated than Jones Hall.
According to the non-profit's website, Theater Under the Stars was founded in 1968 by native Texan Frank M. Young, whom at the time was a pre-med student at Baylor while also working part time at the Houston Grand Opera. Together with a group of volunteers, Young put on a free, single-evening performance of 'Bells are Ringing' at the Miller Outdoor Theater in Hermann Park. The musical brought a crowd of over four thousand to its feet, and just like that, Theater Under the Stars began entertaining Houston for what is now the last 48 years.
Since the Shamrock came down in 1987, obviously the Cabaret Theater did too. Today, TUTS's full-scale Broadway productions can be seen at The Hobby Center for the Performing Arts. In 2006, after 38 years of running the nonprofit, Young turned over the reins to John Breckenridge, and when he did so, Young was the longest-serving head of any major arts company in Houston.

Metairie Cemetery/New Orleans Cemeteries
Metairie Cemetery and other historic New Orleans cemeteries.
Metairie Cemetery, where Josie Arlington is buried, is an immense, 150-acre graveyard built on the site of an old racetrack at 5100 Pontchartrain Blvd. If you drive into New Orleans off Interstate 10 on the Pontchartrain Expressway, you can't help but notice it as you cross the Orleans Parish line. An entire day or two could be spent touring the vast network of crypts and monuments, and it's well worth your time to take a tour when you're in town.
Josie's grave is still there, but as we mentioned in the story, her remains have been removed to another part of the cemetery. But the cemetery did not remove her remains solely because of the influx of curiosity-seekers. The truth is that, after her death, her family squandered the fortune Josie had earned, and they could no longer afford such a lavish grave. So they sold it to another "occupant," strangely enough with the same initials as Josie.
Another myth is that of the red light that would shine upon the grave. Many believe that the light was, in fact, a reflection from a nearby streetlight. Depending on who you talk to, this light was either blocked by the cemetery using shrubs and trees, or was removed entirely. But once Josie's remains were moved and the light was taken away, the ghost sightings stopped.
NEW ORLEANS CEMETERIES
The above ground cemeteries in New Orleans, Louisiana are as synonymous with the city as jazz, Bourbon Street and gumbo. Tourists flock to these eerie "cities of the dead" and marvel at the towering vaults, the twisting labyrinth of stone pathways, and the cultural variety of monuments and markers. Anne Rice's novel Interview With the Vampire and the film Easy Rider are but two pieces of popular culture that have used New Orleans cemeteries as their backdrop.
But these cemeteries are also some of the most important historical structures in the United States. Their strange layout and seemingly haphazard construction mirror the unique history of New Orleans itself. A stroll through New Orleans cemeteries is like a stroll back in time.
New Orleans was settled in 1718 on a raised riverbank beside the Mississippi River. The Mississippi would flood annually, depositing sediment it collected on its journey through North America. Over many years, these silt deposits collected on the riverbanks and formed natural levees, or raised embankments of land ("levee" is derived from the French verb "lever," meaning "raised"). New Orleans was built on top of one of these well-drained levees.
But the first residents would soon discover the folly of trying to bury their dead in this raised riverbank. When flood season came, the water table would rise beneath the coffins, pushing them out of the ground, breaking them apart and washing the human remains away – sometimes through the city streets! When the first official cemetery was constructed outside city limits (around present-day St. Peter Street), the Catholic Church built a brick wall around it to stop the problem. But with annual floods and high amounts of rainfall, the cemetery would become a virtual swimming pool of corpses.
The year 1788 was a horrible one for New Orleans, as a massive fire, flood and an epidemic wiped out a large portion of the city. Such a high death toll brought high demand for burial plots, so a second cemetery was constructed outside town. St. Louis Cemetery #1 became the city's first aboveground burial site (it's currently the city's oldest surviving cemetery). This time, the bodies stayed in place during flooding season, and above ground internment soon became the norm.
Land shortage has always been a problem for New Orleans and its cemeteries. Before water pumps drained the surrounding lands at the turn of the twentieth century, New Orleans was an island surrounded by water. This is why the cemeteries have little wasted space, with winding, twisting pathways that intersect at odd angles – much like New Orleans city streets.
Like homes in the older New Orleans neighborhoods, the tombs tend to be long, tall and narrow, and crammed next to one another. With the cultural variety of people buried within, the architecture is unique and varied, with little separation between wealth and race. Black and white, rich and poor are buried next to one another, neighbors in death as they were (and, in certain areas, still are) in their New Orleans communities.
This land shortage also brought about the need for quick reuse of burial vaults and graves. Many family vaults in the old New Orleans cemeteries contain the remains of several generations. With high temperatures and 100 percent humidity (not to mention hordes of insects), bodies decompose very quickly in New Orleans. So its citizens have traditionally followed a strict "year and a day" policy, where bodies are given a year and a day to decompose before their remains are removed from their coffins and pushed to the back to make room for another body. The coffins are then thrown away in public dumpsters – a startling sight for many tourists!
As gruesome as this procedure may sound to some people, it's a tradition that continues in New Orleans to this day, despite the miles of dry land that are now available for below ground burial. New Orleans cemeteries are not only "cities of the dead," but also cities of the living – deeply spiritual places where families, neighbors and cultures share close bonds. This is no more evident than during All Saints Day, the Catholic feast day dedicated to the deceased which has been described as "Mardi Gras for the dead."
Visitors to New Orleans cemeteries will find them not only to be places of sadness, but also of wondrous architecture, deep cultural tradition and pride, and an overwhelming sense of peace. As with other historical places, these cemeteries are threatened with deterioration.

I was interested to see if owners of above ground vaults, ever sell shares of the vault. or if strangers go in together and buy one? for it is just my husband and I and we do not have families to continue being buiried there. thankyou, billye

Bihar cabinet approves scheme to give Rs 1 lakh interim relief to mob violence victim
Patna | Published: September 13, 2018 10:31:07 PM
The Bihar government on Thursday approved a scheme for providing interim relief of Rs one lakh to those affected by mob violence besides speedy trial of such cases.
The scheme was approved at a meeting of the state cabinet here, chaired by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Principal Secretary, Cabinet Secretarriat Department, Sanjay Kumar told reporters. (PTI)
The Bihar government on Thursday approved a scheme for providing interim relief of Rs one lakh to those affected by mob violence besides speedy trial of such cases. The scheme was approved at a meeting of the state cabinet here, chaired by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Principal Secretary, Cabinet Secretarriat Department, Sanjay Kumar told reporters.
The scheme provides for an interim relief of Rs one lakh which would be made available to victims of mob violence within a month of the incident. Besides, all such cases will be heard at fast track courts which would ensure completion of trial within six months and a final compensation amount, inclusive of the interim relief, would be paid thereupon, the Principal Secretary said.
The decision has been taken in keeping with recent guidelines issued by the Supreme Court with regard to mob violence, he added.
Notably, in the last one week, the state has witnessed mob violence in as many as three districts where crowds have taken the law in their own hands and beaten to death men or women allegedly involved in some sort of crime. Another important decision taken at the cabinet meeting is the approval of recommendations of a high-level committee whereby contractual employees in various government departments would get benefits at par with the regular staff, the Principal Secretary said.
Nod was also given for entering a loan agreement, for the purpose of building village roads, with the BRICS New Development Bank from which USD 350 million are to be borrowed, he said. As per the loan agreement, the money would be borrowed under a Multi-Tranche Financial Facility and a loan of USD 45 million would be taken for Tranche, he added.
A sum of Rs 122.71 crore was also approved for construction of a building which would house the Aryabhatt Knowledge University based in Patna, he said. Green signal was also given for releasing a total sum of Rs 241.42 crore towards payment of salaries, arrears and post-retirement benefits to teaching and non-teaching staff of 28 colleges.
Approval was also accorded for payment of Rs 14.98 crore-of which the state has contributed 40 per cent – to UNICEF for its Social Mobilization Network scheme which involves campaign to achieve cent per cent vaccination of children, he added. Another Rs 4.54 crore would be paid to UNDP for Electronic Vaccine Intelligence Network which would ensure proper storage and distribution of vaccines, he said.

So, this is my problem.I have to generate this kind of matrix step by step. The steps are shown here. After searching on google I came to know that this kind of matrix is called symmetric matrix. The matrix and transpose of this matrix is same. I try to write down some code to implement this.
 import Jama.Matrix;

public class mutest {
public static void main(String args[]){
    Matrix omega=new Matrix(5,5);
    Matrix omega1=new Matrix(5,5);
    for(int i=0;i<=4;i++){
        for(int j=0;j<4;j++) {

                if (i == j) {
                    omega1.set(i, j, 1);//Here I set the value 1 if i=j
                } else {
                    omega1.set(i, j, -1);//Here I set the value -1 if i not equal j
                }

        }

        omega=omega.plus(omega1);
        omega.print(9,6);

        }

    }

}

But I don't get the desire output:
I got
 5.000000  -5.000000  -5.000000  -5.000000   0.000000
-4.000000   4.000000  -4.000000  -4.000000   0.000000
-3.000000  -3.000000   3.000000  -3.000000   0.000000
-2.000000  -2.000000  -2.000000   2.000000   0.000000
-1.000000  -1.000000  -1.000000  -1.000000   0.000000

This one is not symmetric matrix. Can anyone tell me what should I change in my code block. I almost reach the goal.

A: You seem to have an off-by-one error.
for(int i=0;i<=4;i++){
    for(int j=0;j<4;j++) {

i includes 4, but j only loops up to 3.

A: omega=omega.plus(omega1);

Is in the wrong place; you're adding a partially updated copy of omega1 to omega every time you complete a row.  So the first row gets added 5 times, the second row 4 times...  Combine that with not ever updating the last column, and that explains your result.

A: Not an answer but just a clarification.  Sorry, but your logic is not complete. Consider the first traverse,  i = 0; and then j will iterate from 0 to 3.   So you as per your code, you are setting:
R1C1 = 1;
R1C2 = -1;
R1C3 = -1;
R1C4 = -1;

What if
 if (i == j) {
        omega1.set(i, j, 1);//Here I set the value 1 if i=j
        if(i < omega1.length ) { //Whatever the method is to find the length, in this example 5.
          omega1.set(i+1, j , -1);
          omega1.set(i, j+1 , -1);
           break; //from the second loop.
        }
      }

Just a quick solution with your approach in mind, you can always optimize it or make it better.
Note: Have never used Jama.Matrix so don't know the functions but I believe basically its a 2D array with added mathematical functions. Jeez I sound silly !!

This book analyses representations of the Algerian War of Independence (1954–62) in the literary output of French authors of Algerian origin, problematizing the extent to which these literary 'sites of memory' provide appropriate spaces of consensus for hitherto competing memories of the war. The Algerian War in French/Algerian Writing provides a comprehensive understanding of the development of writing by French authors of Algerian origin, from its emergence in the 1980s to the present day.

Literature and Literary Criticism: General Criticism and Critical Theory
"Six decades on from its murderous paroxysm, the Algerian war remains unfinished business. In this important monograph, Jonathan Lewis charts the conflict's memorial trace in the literary production of the Algerian diaspora in France, exploring and explaining writing as a privileged site for understanding this durably traumatic war of decolonization."
Philip Dine, National University of Ireland, Galway
"This book is essential reading. Lewis's close, nuanced readings of literary texts are exemplary in the way they bring to the fore the significant contribution that literature can make to understanding the complex history of the Algerian war and its legacies. In doing so, Lewis makes the compelling and convincing case that to understand contemporary France we need to return to the open uncertainties of French/Algerian literature."
Patrick Crowley, University College Cork


At Super Vegan Travel we create compassionate tours for both vegans and non-vegans alike and provide information about vegan tourism. It is an exciting time for veganism in the UK, which has experienced a 360% growth in the past 10 years! We aim to expose as many people as possible to this growing movement, to fuel the vegan economy and to show businesses that there is indeed a huge market for more compassionate choices.
Our small group tours allow our guests to experience a bit of everything: both city and rural living, regular sightseeing, and vegan experiences like meeting rescued animals and other local vegan people. We offer custom trips for individuals, couples and small groups. If you have any special requests, please don't hesitate to ask. We would love to be your hosts and help you create the vegan holiday of your dreams!
We, Becky and Michiko, have been together since 2010 and were married in 2017 at the Leilani Farm Sanctuary in Hawaii. Both vegan when we met, we have been working together for the last 6 years. We are both passionate about making the world a better place for all and have spent a lot of time volunteering for various human, animal and environmental organisations. We now live in Suffolk with our two dogs, Arta and Bindi and cat, Tia who all adopted us on our travels. We like to spend time with good friends, out in nature, reading books and of course travelling and learning. Becky likes to cook and we both love to eat – food is never far from our minds or mouths! Travelling is a big part of our lives and we believe that it is through having an open mind that we can understand the lives of others, which in turn helps us to take measures to support equality for all.
Yumiko and Paul are Michiko's parents and have been married for….a long time! Yumiko has been running tours in the UK for many years, has featured on both British and Japanese TV, written for several magazines and has published books about British Villages and the British way of life. Paul has enjoyed a long career in the film industry and has travelled extensively producing and coordinating film shoots in many countries, including Japan. Paul and Yumiko now operate their own tour company Culture Tourism UK. They live in Buckinghamshire with their 2 rescue dogs, Ruby and Jasper.
Very simply speaking, we started Super Vegan Travel because we love travelling and we love vegan food! We have travelled to lots of countries since going vegan 10 years ago; Hong Kong, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Singapore, USA, Canada, France, Hungary, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and of course Japan and the UK.
After being away for 6 years, we came back to a huge increase in veganism which made us incredibly happy! We had also forgotten a lot about England and couldn't believe just how beautiful it is! It is easy to take things for granted when you experience it all the time – we could now see England with new eyes. So we thought what better way to enjoy all that vegan England has to offer than to share it with new friends who also want to explore with us!
Tourism runs in our family, with Michiko's parents, Yumiko and Paul, already running a successful business, Culture Tourism UK. With our background in business and Yumiko and Paul's expertise in tourism, we found the perfect conditions to create something magical together.
Travel has been a huge passion for us. It has taught us about the diversity and beauty of the world but it also opened our eyes to something that is less talked about, the suffering. We witnessed a lot of abuse while travelling and volunteering with animals – dogs, cats, buffalo and pigs were beaten, shot and barbequed without a second thought. To us, there is no difference between any of these animals. They all feel the same love and pain and all have the desire to live a life free from cruelty. That is why we always try as much as is possible to find activities and products on our tours that do not come from the oppressing of animals.
Through our tours, we support businesses, organisations and charities that share our beliefs. When we are not able to support a vegan business where one does not exist (yet!), we show omnivore businesses just how big a market there is for providing vegan options. We believe that we can strengthen the vegan economy and show our clients a range of different avenues for veganism through our tours – in essence we want to encourage tourism that also creates positive impact for animals and gives fellow animal lovers hope for a better future. Together we can create change!

How does multi-level marketing works?
How can you differentiate MLM from a pyramid scheme?
What are the legal sides to include in the check-list?
A tale about multi-level marketing business!
Multi-level marketing resonates with proper alignment in business by means of recruiting new members or individuals. One can define MLM as an organization or a person or a group makes individual contracts for product distribution and earn commissions, bonuses or likewise compensations. Brand growth is the ultimate motto of such recruitment with individual benefits.
Commissions are received for adding up new members and say, if you came to know about a business and joined the network then, the one who recruited you is known as "sponsor". Then, with your efforts you have added up a member and s/he comes underneath your position and they are called "downline members" and the members above you are called "upline members".
Now, the legal part! Usually, Multi-level marketing follows a two-way step and we call it "duo-legality identification process". By satisfying this process, a business can be labeled as "multi-level marketing" or else "a pyramid scheme". What exactly is a pyramid scheme and how is different from an MLM scheme?
Let's say, a business focusing more on individual recruitment rather than sales oriented then, its Pyramid scheme and if the focus is more on selling part as well as for the selling, i.e., balancing both part of business together then, it is likely to fall under the MLM scheme.
MLM – Prefer product selling as well as member recruitment to become a unique brand.
Well, as the name suggests (a term provided for better understanding and it is provided for the best catch) the process usually proceeded with two steps.
The working modules of the compensation scheme or call it the theoretical part.
The focus point of the business – Is it on member expansion or product selling with fake offers.
The first part explains the complete system of the business model, this includes complete infrastructure. From the marketing plan, say for example "Binary plan" and how the compensation is provided for members etc.
The second part actually decided the legal formation of business in terms of Federal Administrative and Judicial Decisions. For an MLM program to become legal, the second part must clear off with proper structure. And it's difficult to get approved and flagship later with this part.
Like a survey point, we have prepared you a short-list to ensure the process is accurate and precise.
People who choose this career often keep a high-profile to stand out among the other distributors of representing organizations. Network marketers prefer to exist in the system more likely as a part-time during the initial period and later on, as the time progresses a full-time presence is employed up. There is no working period in this type of business. Some technically follow a 5-hour routine or 8 or even less depends on their plan.
With social skills and talent, legal business grows to its higher levels with ease. MLM is the key for such instances, and there is no substitution for hard work.
The legal guidance provided above will help you to understand how one can establish a new MLM company. Apart from this, there are several kinds of stuff to take care of. This part of business always tends to witness a battle with a lawsuit, and because of this reason, there is always a concern arises in the organization.
Before getting into the business, you may check out the top 100 mlm companies around the world. So, there you go, it's time to begin your own multi-level marketing business with legal notes, following every bit of procedures.


This feature-length painted animation -- the first film of its kind -- explores the life and unusual death of Vincent Van Gogh via depictions of his artworks. Directed by Dorota Kobiela and Hugh Welchman.
In English. Rated PG-13. 95 minutes.


As already announced, it was our intention to present the HIRMEOS project's animation video as a hypervideo complemented at specific points by links to external resources and additional materials.
The open source software FrameTrail allowed us to annotate the video in a way that the different resources organized in four thematic collections are highlighted when the video deals with a related topic. FrameTrail is a web-based tool which is still under development and at the moment most suitable for a desktop or tablet experience.
The aim of the interactive video framework is to offer a point of reference for all those seeking information on the topic of the Open Access monographs. In fact, the collections with the hyperlinks of the hypervideo will be constantly updated, so that the hypervideo present a selection of the most important current content. In our intentions, the hypervideo should become the starting point of a portal dedicated to the Open Access digital monograph.
What you can see here is still an experimental version, which will change and improve in the coming months.
Partners & Platforms, which provides links to partners and digital platforms involved in our project.
Services & Tools, with links to websites of the resources HIRMEOS is using to enhance the OA digital monograph.
Open Access Basics, presenting encyclopedia entries or similar contributions on basic concepts of Open Access publishing.
Scientific publishing, with PDFs of articles, monographs and other forms of publication investigating topic related to the Open Access monograph.
The latter is obviously the most ambitious and interesting collection. Through constantly updating and selection, this collection should become a kind of annotated and interactive bibliography to which you can always refer.
As already mentioned, this version of hypervideo is still under development. We invite you to test it and submit your critique comments, as well your suggestions for new content that should be to added to the different collections.
P.S. Naturally it is still possible to watch and download the normal animation video (in a MOV. Format), for example here.
FrameTrail has been developed by Joscha Jäger at Merz Akademie Stuttgart in the context of the remediate research project, mainly funded by "MFG Baden-Württemberg" (centre of excellence for creative industries, media, and film) and "Landesanstalt für Kommunikation" (LFK, Media Authority of Baden-Württemberg).
In 2017 it received public funding by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) via the Prototype Fund to develop new video annotation technology and interfaces.

TALKING FILMS
Ken Loach tribute: British cinema's angry old man is still raging about the issues that matter
A retrospective at the International Film Festival of India in Panaji is timely and well-deserved.
Rashid Irani
Sorry We Missed You (2019) | Sixteen Films
The 50th edition of the International Film Festival of India that will be held in Panaji from November 20 to 28 will honor veteran British director Ken Loach with a richly deserved retrospective that spans his over 50-year career.
A lifelong crusader for the cause of marginalised Britons grappling with political, social and economic inequity, Loach remains one of only nine filmmakers (Shohei Imamura, the brothers Luc and Jean-Pierre Dardenne and Michael Haneke are among the others) to have won the coveted Cannes Palme d'Or – the festival's top prize – on two occasions. The Cannes winners The Wind That Shakes the Barley (2006) and I, Daniel Blake (2016) are, unfortunately, not included in the line-up for the eight-day event in Panaji. I, Daniel Blake is being streamed on Netflix.
On the other hand, Kes, the director's seminal sophomore feature from 1969, is being showcased at IFFI. The tale of a Yorkshire lad's rapport with a young kestrel is acknowledged as a masterpiece of humanist cinema and as one of the finest British films of the 20th century.
Kes (1969).
Loach established a reputation as a left-leaning firebrand early in his career, and has continued to tackle hot-button issues in his subsequent fiction features.
Whether it is itinerant London construction workers exploited by an employer who shows scant regard for safety standards in Riff-Raff (1991), or the alternately bleak and humorous peek into the aspirations of an out-of-work labourer on the dole in Raining Stones, Loach's protagonists, as he has maintained, are "resilient and do fight back".
A provocative coming-of-age drama about a Scottish teenager determined to spring his mother from prison (Sweet Sixteen, 2002) and an acerbic perspective of an East Berlin musician's sojourn in West Germany (Fatherland, also known as Singing the Blues in Red, 1986) confirm that Loach's political passion has not diminished over the years.
Cathy Come Home (1966).
The primary attraction of the 83-year-old auteur's work has been his three-dimensional characters and the distillation of their everyday experiences. Loach's unobtrusive directorial style never draws attention to itself.
With his customary flair for semi-improvisational verisimilitude, Loach has more often than not cast relatively unknown actors in lead roles. The use of Robert Carlyle the future star of the Trainspotting diptych in Riff-Raff and Carla's Song (1996) is an exception.
Bucking conventional practice, Loach usually also shoots his films in chronological sequence, lending them an aura of authenticity.
Accused at times of preaching to the converted, the director consistently draws attention to the humiliation faced by the working-class victims of a heartless state welfare system. "If you are not angry about it, what kind of a person are you?" he once snapped at an interviewer.
Riff-Raff (1991).
As the protagonists of his two most recent films, I, Daniel Blake (2016) and Sorry We Missed You (2019), slide into frustration and despair, Loach's response to their plight becomes ever more impassioned.
In I, Daniel Blake, any sense of social justice seems nonexistent as the eponymous widower (Dave Johns) strives to claim his rightful disability benefits. Blake's path runs parallel with that of a similarly disenfranchised single mother and her two little children. Despite their grim situation, the essential dignity of the downtrodden duo remains inviolable.
I, Daniel Blake (2016).
Loach avoids pat resolutions while illuminating the harsh realities of life in present-day England. Without a trace of sentimentality, he brings us up close and personal to the protagonists who are delineated with sensitivity by his longtime script collaborator Paul Laverty.
Sorry We Missed You, which was selected for the official competition section of this year's Cannes Film Festival, is arguably Loach's most emotionally devastating production to date.
A searing critique of hyper-capitalism, greed and profiteering, the film focuses on Ricky (Kris Hitchen) a 40-something family man struggling to make ends meet following the financial debacle of 2008.
Availing of the opportunity to become a self-employed delivery van driver (the owner of the courier franchise explains that the staff doesn't work "for him" but "with him"), Ricky soon realises that he is trapped in a downward spiral of hefty fines, inhuman working conditions and mounting debts.
His wife (the astonishing Debbie Honeywood), who works as a care giver, is required to take public transport while making house calls to her elderly patients.
Ricky's car has been sold and the proceeds used to acquire the delivery van. Worse, since the parents have little time to attend to the needs of their growing children – a rebellious teenage son and his overwrought younger sister – their family life is pushed to the brink.
Sorry We Missed You (2019).
The meticulously researched script, once again by the indefatigable Paul Laverty, is peppered with sly humour (Ricky cracks a joke about a dyslexic insomniac who stayed awake all night wondering if there was a "dog") and moments of tenderness (the eventual reconciliation between estranged father and son).
The final act of the film pulls no punches and elicits both righteous indignation and tears.
Ken Loach remains a vital voice in contemporary cinema, and the opportunity to watch, or in some cases, re-watch his compassionate work may well be the highlight of IFFI 2019.

In considering God's will for your life, let's begin with: what you pretend to be.
When you know you're doing God's will, you can drop the mask. You don't have to convince people you're important while secretly fearing you're not. Nothing is more boring or disconcerting than someone who name drops in order to make an impression. A newly promoted lieutenant pretended to be on the phone with a general. "Yes General, you can count on me, Sir," he said, as he banged the receiver down. Turning to the private he asked what he wanted. "I'm just here to connect your phone sir," the private stated.
Pretending to be what you're not is hard work. That's why you feel so tired after a first date, a job interview, or when you're around people that expect you to project a certain image. Deep inside you are an unpretentious person. And it's such a relief not having to act more humble than you are, or feign that you pray more, or know more about the Bible than you really do. The good news is that you never have to pretend with God; genuine brokenness pleases HIM more than spiritual pretentiousness.
So be who you are. When you do that, God will do the rest!
simply now operating on, and I've been on the glance out for such info.


If you find yourself in jail for any reason, your first priority should be getting out as soon as possible. If you spend an extended period of time locked up there could be serious repercussions for you and your family. If you are arrested for a misdemeanor, you will be given a bond amount. A bond is a dollar figure assigned by a judge that allows you to get out of jail and enjoy your life until you are scheduled for court. Some felonies may also have a bond.
There are some important things for you, and your family, to keep in mind should you end up in jail. The first important fact is that using a company like AAOK Bail Bonding, is the quickest and most inexpensive way to regain your freedom. Even a simple misdemeanor, like driving with a suspended license, could have a bond as high as $2,000. That means your loved ones would have to pay the entire amount in order to get you out. A bond could be as much as $10,000 for more serious charges. At AAOK, we charge a small portion of the total bond and post the remaining balance on your behalf. You are then able to go home to your family and continue to work as your case is pending.
1. Time is limited: Time is of the essence when someone is locked up. In Cobb County Jails and Fulton County Jails, arrestees have a limited amount of time to use free telephones. If bond arrangements aren't made quickly, a move to a housing area will be imminent. In those areas of a jail, telephones only make collect calls.
2. Information is needed: Your loved ones may call the jail to find out information. In most cases, county employees will tell you what a person is charged with and what their bond is. This is crucial information to have.
3. How Busy Is The Jail? Most people would be surprised to learn that weekends usually aren't the busiest times in Cobb and Fulton county jails. Fridays and Saturdays certainly have a number of arrestees, but most weekdays are much busier. In a county like Cobb, there could be as many as sixty people in the jail's intake waiting to be processed. That's sixty people all waiting to be fingerprinted and use the free phones. Even if it is busy, those making bail arrangements should contact AAOK bail bonds to begin the bail process. It's never too soon to get things moving.
4. Property: Most jails allow an arrestee's property to be released. That could be important if something like a debit or credit card is needed to post bond. All your family member or friend has to do is request a property release through AAOK Bail Bonding.
As you can see, there are a number of important details to keep in mind to expedite release from jail. The more you know ahead of time, should something unfortunate happen that results in a trip to jail, the better off you will be. In Cobb County, you can reach AAOK Bail Bonding at 770-672-6960. In Fulton County, you can reach us at 770-640-1895.

Vive Les Differences!
Wednesday, March 31st, 2010
One of the biggest differences between unethical conduct and criminal conduct by government officials is the matter of proving intent. For example, a bribe is nothing more than a gift to a government official where it has been proven that the official intentionally took a gift in return for certain conduct. In government ethics, taking a gift beyond a certain value is all that needs to be proven to show misconduct. The official's conduct, beyond accepting the gift, is irrelevant, as is the official's intent.
But what about knowledge? Clearly, if it can be shown that the official knew nothing about a gift, that an envelope containing $10,000 had been placed under his porch without his knowledge, it would not be considered receipt of a gift. But if the gift were given to his wife, and he insists she never told him about it, it's still an ethics violation.
What about knowledge concerning the subject of a vote? This is the issue raised by a complaint filed against a former planning commissioner in Santa Rosa, CA, according to an article this week in the Press Democrat. The complaint, filed with the state Fair Political Practices Commission, asserts that the planning commissioner acted as a lobbyist for the Sonoma County water agency in its attempt to change the land-use designation of property it owned, so that housing units could be built on it.
The respondent did not seek ethics advice regarding his vote on a master plan amendment that included the desired land-use change because, he said, "he was unaware the designation for the property was proposed for change under the updated general plan version he voted for. He said the change was never called out in any specific document nor was it the subject of any testimony during numerous public meetings. Instead, it was noted within the 300-page update. 'The only mention I saw was it was identified as a future redevelopment site by the county,' he said."
However, a January 2009 amendment of the water agency's contract with the respondent requires him to "conduct additional planning, research and collaboration with city of Santa Rosa to include [the] property as part of the city of Santa Rosa's general plan amendment."
Let's assume the respondent never read the contract or plan amendments, and there is no evidence that he did anything to include the property in the plan amendment he voted for, so that there is no proof that he had any knowledge of a possible conflict of interest. Would this mean that there was no conflict, and that it was okay to vote on the plan amendment?
If the respondent were accused of a crime, I would say the evidence is circumstantial. But in an ethics enforcement action, there is evidence that he agreed to seek inclusion of the property in the general plan amendment, and that would be proof enough that he had a direct interest in, and received a direct benefit for, the successful inclusion of the property in the plan amendment he voted for.
There appears to be more evidence, but the important thing to recognize here is that ethics enforcement differs from criminal enforcement not only because people aren't put in prison for unethical conduct. The level of intent and of knowledge are also different. Why?
One reason is that government ethics is a relatively inexpensive way of handling relatively minor instances of misconduct. This can only be done if the evidentiary and due process requirements of criminal law are dispensed with. Along with this, the seriousness of the consequences is also reduced.
Another reason is that government ethics is more about the appearance of impropriety than it is about the guilt of the official. What an official intended to do, and what he knew, are irrelevant to how his conduct appears to the public.
Another reason is that government ethics is less about enforcement than it is about acting responsibly. A guy who's planning to rob a bank doesn't ask someone for advice on whether or not he should. A government official who has a possible conflict knows full well that he should ask for advice if he's not sure whether or not he should participate and vote (and he should also check what he's voting for to see if it includes the property he's been working on). If he fails to check and ask, and he chooses to participate or vote, he has only himself to blame, for he has failed to learn rule #1 in government ethics.
This is not to say that all, or even most, government ethics program recognize these differences, or the reasons for them. Many make ethics violations misdemeanors, and many even require criminal prosecution. Many also require evidence not only of knowledge, but of intent. There is a great deal of confusion between conflicts and crime in the government ethics world. It's time there was an open debate about the differences.

From 8 till 12 October, 2018, I will be speaking in the 10 Lectures series of the China International Forum on Cognitive Linguistics. Starting with the basic scientific and cognitive commitments that characterized cognitive linguistics from the start, and building on my own work as well as that of several previous speakers in the series, I will make explicit in what way the different perspectives within cognitive linguistics can be seen as contributing to a coherent, unified view of human communication ("Cognitive Linguistics 2.0"). The biological perspective plays a crucial role in this endeavour. First, in terms of content, we can begin to understand in what way human ways of communicating, including the use of language, share properties with animal communication, as well what makes human communication, linguistically and otherwise, biologically special. Second, in terms of methodology, in grounding the scientific commitment of cognitive linguistics in that of biology. The points will be illustrated with specific case studies from different languages, different historical periods, and different genres (from conversation to written narratives).

Former pros on show in West Yorkshire Veterans Premier League
Yorkshire Voice Reporter
Comments Off on Former pros on show in West Yorkshire Veterans Premier League
By Jack Simpson and Jamie Woodhouse
Football fans in West Yorkshire may be surprised to learn that they can watch a former Everton, Manchester City and Bradford player in action in a local league.
Peter Beagrie is just one example of a former pro who plays in the West Yorkshire Veterans Premier League as the sport enjoys a resurgence in the region.
The league was founded by York Corinthians as a charity and has 14 teams. Beagrie currently plays for the Harrogate team.
The Ilkley Town side was formed in 1992 and the original squad lasted for a few years before it folded. However, it was reformed ten years ago and they have shown progress, currently top of the league.
Ilkley Town chairman Richard Giles, said: "We are really pleased to have a veterans team, we've had it for five or six years now.
"They are playing football in their 40s, they bring their kids along, so it's a great thing to have."
Ilkley veteran player Nick Quaife, said: "The team lasted until the early 2000s, it finished when the kids started to come through, then it started again ten years ago.
"It's a good craic, keeps the blood flowing, we are a group of local lads and we are doing well."
"It keeps people in touch and it keeps you active."
Having won 3-1 against Amarath Manstonians in their last game, the veterans head for their toughest test of the season with their next fixture against Harrogate Veterans in a potential tittle decider. There is a nine point gap back to third-place Killinghall Veterans.

Music Faculty Members Release Album
Trio explores compositions of François Rossé for new recording
November 15, 2017 by Anna Herd

OXFORD, Miss. – Three University of Mississippi music faculty members have released a new album of material by French composer François Rossé.
Adam Estes, assistant professor of music, is the lead performer on saxophone, accompanied on piano by Stacy Rodgers, professor of music, and Amanda Johnston, associate professor of music. "François Rossé: Métissage" is on the MSR Classics record label.
Rossé is considered avant-garde because of his distinctive techniques for playing instruments that break from tradition. Knowledge of contemporary music and training is essential to perform Rossé's work, Estes said.
"I have devoted much of my creative energy to exploring Rossé's music," Estes said. "I hope that as this music becomes more fully integrated into the saxophone repertoire, familiarity will allow audiences to experience the expressive power of these unique compositions."
Recording is essential to music research and scholarship, and Rossé's music is Estes' primary research interest. Releasing an album of the composer's music has been a longtime goal, Estes said.
Estes also had an opportunity to interview and collaborate closely with Rossé in efforts to better understand the work and assist other musicians to perform the "dramatic and demanding music," he said.
This album is Estes' fourth; he has done two solo recordings and two with his quartet, the Assembly Quartet. This is the first album that Estes and Johnston have recorded together, but the second between Estes and Rodgers.
"I am very excited about the release of our album and was honored to be asked to play two pieces by François Rossé," Johnston said.
She typically performs with singers and enjoyed changing things up a bit to perform two pieces of Rossé's works, Johnson said.
"It is always a pleasure working with Adam Estes, who is a consummate musician and exciting performer," she said.
Estes and Johnston are also both part of the 2017-18 Southeastern Conference Faculty Travel Grant Program. They traveled to the University of South Carolina, where Estes graduated, to perform a guest artist recital in September.

The name "Hawaii" refers to the entire chain of 137 North Pacific islands that span 1,500 miles. At the same time, it's the name of one of the chain's main islands, also known as "The Big Island." Importantly, the state's capital city of Honolulu is not on the island that bears the name, but instead, it's on Oahu, the island with the largest population. Hawaii's eight principal islands include two that don't accept visitors ‒ one is uninhabited, and the other is private.
Get to this tropical paradise in a hurry on one of 16 airlines with non-stop flights from about two dozen U.S. and Canadian cities. Honolulu International Airport (also known as Daniel K. Inouye International Airport) is the entry point for most visitors. It's a hub for inter-island flights as well, so visitors can opt to explore Oahu first or make a direct connection straight to another Hawaiian island destination.
Hawaiian Airlines is the primary Hawaii-based passenger carrier. Including Oahu, the airline serves several airports on four islands: Hilo International Airport and Kona International Airport, both on Hawaii Island; Lihue Airport on Kauai; and Kahului Airport and Kapalua Airport, both on Maui. Going from one island to another can involve a stop, as many flights connect at the Honolulu Airport. A second airline for inter-island flights is Hawaiian Airlines' subsidiary carrier, 'Ohana. Operated by Empire Airlines, they offer flights on 48-seat turboprops from Honolulu to three additional islands: Molokai, Lanai and Kapalua. Sports enthusiasts should note that 'Ohana accepts surf, kite, paddleboards and wakeboards as checked baggage.
Double-check the destination details before booking, as island-hopping visitors will discover there's more than one airport on some Hawaiian islands. Mokulele Airlines serves several of them, all within a flight time of 45 minutes or less. From its base at Kona on The Big Island, Mokulele Airlines flies to Kamuela Waimea, also on The Big Island. Mokulele has 120-plus flights daily to Honolulu and to Kahului, Kapalua, and Hana on Maui; Ho'olehua and Kalaupapa on Molokai; and to Lana'i City on Lana'i. The 11-plane fleet of nine-passenger Cessna Grand Caravans has two pilots onboard every flight as an extra safety measure, and the family pet is welcome to fly free.
While there are no coupon books or passes for regular island hopping, frequent flyers can take advantage of a special deal on Mokulele Airlines. The offer provides a free one-way voucher for every 12 one-way trips flown. On Hawaiian Airlines, an earn miles program is available for travelers.
Ferry service in Hawaii is limited, which may be surprising to some visitors. Expeditions ferries operate from Maui to Lanai for snorkeling, sightseeing and beach-going with the possible bonus of spotting humpback whales in January through April. The passenger ferry makes the hour-long trip across Auau Channel five times a day at a 2019 cost of $50 for adults and $30 for children under 12 (free for under age 2). It allows excess baggage such as bicycles, kayaks and surfboards for a fee. Reservations and a photo ID are required.

Demand for unitary air conditioners is forecast to expand at a 4.9% yearly rate through 2021 to $11.0 billion, continuing to outperform air conditioning equipment sales as a whole. The replacement of units that have reached the end of their operational lives will remain the primary driver of sales. In unit terms, unitary air conditioner sales are projected to increase 2.7% per year through 2021 to 5.9 million units. These and other trends are presented in Air Conditioning Equipment Market in the US, a new study from The Freedonia Group, a Cleveland-based industry research firm.
Split unitary air conditioners will remain significantly more popular in the US due to the widespread use of warm air furnaces. Split systems utilize the furnace's blower and ductwork to cycle and distribute air. Split units locate the compressor and condensing coils outside the building, while utilizing an evaporating coil and air handler inside the building to distribute cooled air.
Demand for split type unitary air conditioners is expected to rise 5.4% annually through 2021 to $8.2 billion, slowing from the 2011-2016 period but continuing to take share away from packaged units due to the ease of adding a split system to a building that has a warm air furnace heating system. Even faster increases will be limited by competition from split system heat pumps, especially ductless mini-split units, due to their greater operating efficiency and ability to better control room temperatures.
Air Conditioning Equipment Market in the US (published 05/2017, 123 pages) is available for $4900 from The Freedonia Group. For further details or to arrange an interview with the analyst, please contact Corinne Gangloff by phone 440.684.9600 or email pr@freedoniagroup.com.

'He had wisdom': Campbell school board member grateful to take over for late husband
When Rick Gozur passed away on July 29, his wife Judy stepped in to fill his role
by: Keely Lovern
CAMPBELL, Ohio (WKBN) – School boards around the Valley are gearing up for a new year. For Campbell City Schools, their board will look a little different heading into the fall after losing a long-time and beloved member. But now, his legacy will be carried on by the woman he loved the most.
Rick Gozur was a part of Campbell City Schools for his entire life. He dedicated himself to the students as a teacher, principal and school board member.
But when he passed away less than one month ago, his wife, Judy Gozur, stepped in to fill his role and finish the job he started with a passion that still lives on.
"If he believed in me to do this, then I owe that to him," Judy said.
Judy joined the Campbell Board of Education on Aug. 10 in her husband's place.
"Because I can do it then. If he thinks I can do it, I can do it," she said.
Rick passed away on July 29 after a tough battle with colon cancer.
"This is the scene, happily ever after, you know, you don't realize all the things that your journey has before you," Judy said.
And for this pair, that journey brought heartache, but it also brought love and passion. For Rick, that passion was for Campbell City Schools.
"His main thing was to create a community within the building to where everyone was treated fairly and got along and the atmosphere was positive," said Rick Gozur, Jr., Rick's son.
Rick graduated from Campbell Memorial High School in 1970. He then taught social studies for 17 years, served as principal for 19 years and spent the last years of his life on the Campbell Board of Education.
"He passionately, very passionately foresaw this future of learning," Judy said.
Judy said Rick was passionate about the STEM programs and anticipated a community literacy workforce and cultural center that will open later this year. She knows he is looking down, smiling on the progress it's made.
"If there's a way to help us, you help us out, all of us. I know if there's a way, he will," Judy said.
Before his death, Rick asked Judy to take his seat on the school board.
"He wanted his wife to have that position so she could carry on and carry his passion for the students and for this community," said Campbell City Schools Superintendent Matthew Bowen.
Her decision to do it came after many prayers and knowing how much it would mean to him to carry on his love for Campbell City Schools.
"I don't have what he has. What I share is the passion that he has laid before us," Judy said.
But she didn't swear-in that day alone, she had Rick's hat on her head.
"It was a way of him being with me. It was a way of, physically, a reminder that he is here with me and them," she said.
Even though Judy says she has big shoes to fill, they are the shoes of the man she loved with all her heart, and it is her honor to continue Rick's legacy in the community he loved with all of his heart.
"When you look at a child who isn't being treated properly it breaks your heart because that child, you don't know what that child has in them and what they could grow to become. And he saw that, and I see that too," Judy said.
Judy says she is very grateful to have been welcomed onto the school board with open arms and promises she will do her very best to continue what her husband started.
