Hardware: 100% original gold hardware includes twin Gibson Patent Applied For humbucking pickups and electronics; beveled 5-ply pickguard; 3 way control switch, gold reflector cap knobs, Grover Rotomatic tuners, compensated Tunematic bridge with Brazilian rosewood base, Barney Kessel engraved nameplate tailpiece.
A 17" long scale twin pickup jazz box in the tradition of the ES-350, the Barney Kessel was Gibson's first full-depth double cutaway archtop, a design intended to facilitate access to the uppermost frets. This deluxe version of the model was designated the Custom, and is equipped with all gold hardware, solid Brazilian rosewood fingerboard, arched spruce top, and the distinctive bowtie and eighth-note inlay. Produced in very small numbers, this exceptional guitar is one of just 43 Barney Kessel Customs produced in its model year.
Purchased brand new at Sherman Clay Music in Seattle in 1964, this guitar has been meticulously stored by its original owner now for over half a century. Equipped with all original hardware, the guitar has twin gold Patent Applied For humbucking pickups, and all original wiring including a full set of shielding cans for each of the four volume controls. The body shows spectacular tiger flame maple in the back and neck, and a very handsome bookmatched arched spruce soundboard, in contrast to the maple tops found on the Barney Kessel Regular. The original cherry sunburst finish retains its vibrant hue, and has been preserved in uncannily pristine condition, without pick, thumb, or fingerboard wear, and is absent even the typical checking found in almost all instruments of similar vintage. Both pickups show original PAF decals in place and unopened gold covers, and are beautifully matched with smooth, powerful output. The original Grover Rotomatic tuners are in magnificent shape, as is the original 5 ply beveled pickguard and bracket, the original gold reflector cap knobs, and the original Brazilian rosewood adjustable compensated Tunematic bridge.
Best of all, the neck has a very comfortable light D profile, with the full 1 11/16" fingerboard width, and the original medium jumbo frets are still high and undented on the handsome solid ebony fingerboard. The tone is classic 60's jazz: fat, warm and sweet, with excellent clarity and balance across the range. Amazingly, the original Gibson Faultless hardshell is virtually unworn as well, and includes the full set of factory paperwork, including the original green hangtag, and instruction sheets for the PAF pickups and the Tunematic bridge. An astounding find, in breathtaking condition: we've yet to see another BK this pristine to date. Call now.
Case: Original black Gibson hardshell case with gold plush lining.

News Update: Palm Beach Post Reports on Art Walk Ban Discussion Set for Friday at 2 PM at City Hall

Boynton officials, organizer to discuss
future of Art Walk
By Patricia Potestades
Palm Beach Post Staff Writer
BOYNTON BEACH —
Rolando Chang Barrero and a group of fellow artists and friends spent Wednesday evening in meditation for a cause.
After four years of hosting the Boynton Beach Art Walk the third Thursday of every month, organizer Chang Barrero received a letter from the city saying the monthly events were never allowed.
City manager Lori LaVerriere said while the monthly event ran for four years without permits, when Chang Barrero talked to the city about expanding the event, it became a safety concern, hence the letter.
The City of Boynton Beach only has an application process for special events permits that are temporary, but it does not have a process to apply for monthly event permits, leaving the Art Walk with no way to operate under city regulations.
Chang Barrero is scheduled to meet with Boynton Beach city officials Friday to figure out how best to proceed.
"We want to keep them going," said LaVerriere. The city will try to come up with a set of rules that are specific to this area, she said.
"They're stopping an activity that brought people into the community," said Diane Arrieta, an artist from Tequesta who has displayed her work in the Boynton Beach Art District. "I don't typically hang out in Boynton Beach."
The Art District, which starts at 404 W. Industrial Ave., offers few parking spaces and is surrounded by residential area.
The event used to bring out an average of 200 people to the Art District, said Chang Barrero. Resident artists agreed to keep their studios open from 6 to 10 p.m. so more people would have the chance to view them during the monthly event.
The Art Walk has grown to a size that the city wasn't prepared for, said James Brake, a member of the city's planning and development board. "I do think this is a resolvable issue — not necessarily a simple issue."

Organizers of Wednesday's meditation session are hoping for positive results at the Friday meeting.
"Boynton Beach is in a transformative state of growth," said Chang Barrero. "We need to work together to break these new events and include them in the permitting process — what's upsetting me is they called for a cease and desist until such time."

Award-winning Boynton Beach art district banned from organizing art walks!
Rolando Chang Barrero Counting Days
Joseph LiberaliBoynton Beach Business Examiner
Boynton Beach is wedged between the two, arguably more popular and culturally relevant, cities of Lake Worth and Delray Beach.
For a long time Boynton Beach was the underdog being left out of the conversations that attract the often sought after business-heavy foot traffic that helps financially support communities. These are the types of conversations that wag the tongues of the various cultural attachés within the bourgeoisie of Southern Florida.
Enter Rolando Chang Barrero, prolific artist, community organizer, activist, and volunteer for local schools and PBC United Way, all within Boynton Beach. He's the visionary who's work transformed a formerly run-down industrial area of Boynton Beach into the darling art district of South Florida, housing and organizing many artists in it's own right.
Anyone who's anyone who pays attention to the South Florida artistic community is aware of this man and the Boynton Beach Art District(aka BBAD, it's affectionately known acronym).
Every major newspaper, cultural rag, and art periodical in the region has given Rolando and BBAD it's due with front page headlines, such as the New Times of Broward Palm Beach(link 1, 2, & 3), the Sun Sentinel(link), Art Hive Magazine(link), Palm Beach Culture(link), WLRN of Miami(link), and the Palm Beach Post(link), to name just a few.
The articles listed here are recently published and represent only a fraction of a segment of the total amount of headlines Rolando and BBAD have received for all the action and events that have taken place there, to mention them all would require it's own Wikipedia page.
Given all this positive attention, and given the resulting people flocking to Boynton Beach, the City of Boynton Beach decided recently to ban the popular monthly art walks that take place at BBAD.
If BBAD is responsible for putting the art scene in Boynton Beach on the map, what type of public policy in place could possibly motivate the City of Boynton Beach to ban future art walks in the Boynton Beach Art District?
Interview with Rolando Chang Barrero
The examiner recently conducted an interview with Rolando where he provided his opinion and information regarding the ban. The following quotes and information within this section of this article are excerpts from that interview.
"When other small towns grow and see the need for a stop sign or light at an intersection they don't close down the whole road. The City has gone about this all wrong, and the community is not at all happy. This is more akin to extortion of small not for profits then actual safety concerns."
Rolando continues on to say, "I love the City of Boynton Beach and it's community leaders, but it almost seems that the out of town staff is committed to retarding growth by creating road blocks for growth and development."
The preoccupation to place a tax on the BBAD art walks have led to conflicting reasons for the ban on the popular events, suggesting that there's not a very informed, or even slightly coherent, reason within the City of Boynton Beach regarding the matter.
In his struggle, Rolando found that Tara Altman, of the Boynton Beach risk department, claimed there would be "no proceeds" for monthly event permits by the city, while, confusingly enough, the spokesperson for Boynton blames organizers for incorrect permits. To add to the storm of disorganization and poor management, the city manager claims it's due to growth and safety concerns.
As of now, there is no documented history of violence or disruptions at BBAD events. According to Rolando attendance during summer month's are less then 25% of the usual traffic. These are small local artistic events that entertain people while helping to provide a living for local fine artists within Boynton.
"We are hoping, as suggested by Commissioner McCray, that when the "process" is figured out, that BBAD is grandfathered into it. We can only pray that we are not affected by the historical usurious taxing that has alienated other events from continuing in Boynton." said Rolando, who has a meeting with city officials on August 1st.
So what's the real answer for this controversial move by Boynton? Why can't the representatives in Boynton get it together enough to provide a unified front on this matter? Why would Boynton Beach want to extort money from an artistic community that has not only turned around an entire section of their town, but also given the city it's main source of artistic praise?
To any logical, thinking person, marginalizing and publicly oppressing your main source of press in the art world is a bad idea, but not in Boynton Beach.
In an interesting related twist, the City of Boynton Beach has big plans to focus it's public artistic content into a specific area of the city entitled the Avenue of the Arts.
The Avenue of the Arts is well done. It deserves credit because it's fantastic. The artists involved and the city have worked hard to accomplish this, but given the circumstances of how the city has attempted to shape it's own artistic culture, one could perceive the Avenue of the Arts as a place where art is allowed to exist only under direct supervision and approval by the city of Boynton Beach itself, forcing a system upon artists that designates approved art for the masses under government supervision.
That's not to say the Boynton Beach is only acting questionably and giving no credit to BBAD. They dedicate an entire half a sentence to BBAD in the public art section of the city website that goes as follows,
"BBAD, Boynton Beach Arts District
Face Book: Boynton Beach Art District"
No further description is provided, there are no directions, and no account of the plethora of events that occurred at BBAD.
BBAD is also credited in a video released by Boynton in 2013, "Art in Public Places". The credit exists in the form of a single picture that illustrates a sliver of the art district for one second(located at approximately 3:48 minutes, with no audible acknowledgment of BBAD) wedged somewhere between a lengthy promotion for Avenue of the Arts and a description of rocks that are arranged in an artistic fashion within a nature preserve.
On the city of Boynton Beach Art in Public Places facebook page, the city also recentlycongratulated Rolando for winning best art exhibition in 2014, before promptly banning the popular art walks shortly thereafter.
One could interpret this congratulate-then-immediately-shutdown strategy as an ironic display of performance art, or maybe it's just poor internal organization within the Boynton Beach rising to the surface.
Whatever the seemingly perplexing answer to this controversial situation may be, and however the outcome unfolds, it's safe to assume that with friends like these, who needs enemies?

New Times Reports on New Earth Tribes call for Unity and Resolution the City of Boynton Beach
New Earth Tribes to Hold Meditation to Create Unity and Resolution to Boynton Art Walk Ban
By Chris Joseph Wed., Jul. 30 2014 at 1:22 PM
Categories: Activism
Last week, Boynton Beach announced that it was putting the kibosh on the the Boynton Beach Art District (BBAD) monthly art walks.
The art walks had revitalized what was previously your run-of-the-mill warehouse district. What was once a wasteland of old hollow buildings buried in the shadows west of I-95 turned into a flourishing art scene.
"Boynton Beach finally did something before Miami and Delray Beach: It banned its own signature, award-winning art walk. Go figure that one out," artist and gallery owner Rolando Barrero told New Times' music blog last week.
A group of artists and spiritualists are meeting at sunset this evening to bring awareness in hopes of shifting the city's perspective on why shutting down the art walk is wrong for the community.

This is an opportunity for the community of South Florida to come together in support of the Arts.
The Boynton Beach Art District has recently received news from the city that their regular art walks and 'all monthly events that are currently scheduled' must be cancelled.

Please join us in supporting not only the Boynton Beach Arts District but the entire creative collective in lifting the artwalk ban!
As of now...
"The City is currently looking into possibly obtaining a process to accommodate monthly events, but at this time it is undetermined as to whether we will allow monthly events in the future or how long it will take to create such a process."
The Boynton Beach Arts District will be meeting with the city on the following Friday, August 1, 2014 to discuss what actions will taken.
Your energy and support is deeply appreciated. For more information or questions please contact Emily Andari 561-414-3940

Letters to SunSentinel says, "..they should be commended for their initiative and creativity"
Well into the City of Boynton Beach's 34th Day with out a resoultion to the Ban on the Art District's Art Walk; letter's, comments, reviews and speculations are surfacing.
In print and online, the future of the highly regarded event that established the city as
haven for artists akin to the early days in New York City sits on a balance waiting for the August 1 talks between organizers and city officials.
A letter to the editor of the Sun Sentinel
by Boynton Beach resident Jes Robison says, "As a professional and a resident within this community, I am inspired by the efforts made by the Boynton Beach Arts District to engage the city of Boynton Beach's artistic populace. I believe they should be commended for their initiative and creativity, not to mention the dream they share with the many Boynton residents that believe our city can only benefit by actively promoting an atmosphere of culture and imagination."
The News Times Article:
City of Boynton Beach Shuts Down Popular Monthly BBAD Art Walk
Alex Rendon Says...
"A key to BBAD's success has been its well-staged monthly art walks, which most recently received top honors as New Times' best art walk for Broward and Palm Beach counties.That's why we're scratching our heads at the news that the city decided to shut down this event."
Writer, Alex Rendon ends his article by calling the art walk an "instrumental Palm Beach County institution."
Comments to Sun Sentinel Story by Attiyya Anthony include:
The City is making up policies that are affecting actual working people's lives. BB Art District is a beacon of culture in a depressed area, and THE source of livelihood for dozens of artists and craftsmen who work and exhibit there. It is a homegrown, organic product of love and hard work, and an AMAZING SUCCESS. City of Boynton- try to resolve this please or something we all need will go away!
Is Boynton Beach suddenly unfriendly to artists? So much has been done to put this little seaside town on the map as super friendly to art, with a strong Art in Public Places effort, annual sculpture trail, EcoArt included in its Green Ordinance, a beautiful new EcoArt project (EcoWalk at Seabourn Cove) and a new Kinetic Art symposium and show once a year. Why would the city now shut down what has been called the Most Successful Art Walk in Palm Beach and Broward Counties?? Let's hope Boynton reconsiders shutting down Rolando Chang Barrero's fun monthly events that generate income for local artists! There should be no ban on art!

Today's art market is in flux. The old model of buying and selling art is a senior citizen, still alive but slowly moving towards the end of its life. The new model is still an infant only starting to grow and take shape. There are things the infant can learn from the elder.
As I near the planning for my first major showing, I've set aside my preconceived notions of what an art event should be and tried to create something new and different.
What is resulting is something new and extraordinary in the New Orleans art market. I've had a lot of people come to me in the past weeks saying one thing about the show. "This is different". That is exactly what I want to hear.
But what makes it different from other shows and what can artists learn from it?
I think the first lesson is that there is strength in numbers. I know for a fact that I as an artist would not have a single chance of pulling of an event of this type if I were doing and showing alone. It is in the resources of all the people involved that are making it a strong and doable event.
Second is that it is that is serving two distinct purposes. Its giving artists a professional way to be seen, but its also serving as a teaching tool for those artists to learn from. Everything is about teaching the right and wrong way to promote your art without the access and tools a gallery may provide.
Third is that I am taking a tiered approach to its set up. I have three tiers. Primary Artists, Emerging Artists and Special Guests. Primary Artists are promoted heavily. Their names carry a certain amount of weight in the art community and draw a larger crowd. Emerging Artists are new to showing their work, usually restricted to small venues and popup shows. Special Guests are creatives that fit into the larger scheme of a creative event and can be called artists in their own rights. These includes authors, actors and singers.
Fourth and the most important is creativity. A creative approach to any showing should be the most crucial aspect.Your an artist after all. If you leave it up to others then your creativity and personal brand will not shine within the event.
I have been accused of sometimes going overboard on events such as this. But what people don't grasp is that you have to give 110% of yourself if you want your event to be successful. Mind you going overboard doesn't mean adding needless components to your show. It means giving a thoughtful, concise and creative solution to bring people to the event.
As I've said before, a lot of what these details are never even handled by the artist but rather by the gallery. In some ways a show put on by the artist is so much deeper because we have total creative control. In a gallery show they have that control. While the artist may have input into the process, the gallery makes the final decisions. This can be good because it allows the artist to focus on his art, but its also bad because it removes the art from the event. In the end the most crucial aspect of putting on your own show is to not forget the creative when your detailing with the administrative. That is the difference between success and failure.

Q: Cannot reboot after a shutdown I use Ubuntu on an external hard drive. Every time I shut down the system, I am unable to reboot it because the hard drive starts making clicking noises during the boot process and the system fails to boot. To boot into the system, I have to first boot into a live environment using a USB stick, then I run the "check and repair" procedure in KDE Partition Manager for both the system and boot partitions. Only then can I reboot and finally boot from the hard drive. I have tried disabling hard drive head parking, but the issue persists. Why is this happening and how can i stop it?
Edit:
This is the output of KDE Partition Menager when i run "check and repair" procedure on the main partition:
Check and repair the "/dev/sda2" partition (931.19 GiB,ext4)
Operation: Check the file system in the «/dev/sda2» partition
Command: e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sda2
Check the file system in the "/dev/sda2" partition: Success

Operation: Increase the file system size on "/dev/sda2" until the partition is full
The file system in the "/dev/sda2" partition already has the required length of 1,952,841,695 sectors.
Increase file system size on '/dev/sda2' until the partition is full: Success
Check and repair the «/dev/sda2» partition (931.19 GiB,ext4): Completed successfully

This is the output of KDE Partition Menager when i run "check and repair" procedure on the boot partition:
Check and repair the «/dev/sda1» partition (300.00 MiB,fat32)
Operation: Check the file system in the «/dev/sda1» partition
Command: fsck.fat -a -w -v /dev/sda1
Check the file system in the "/dev/sda1" partition: Success

Operation: Increase the file system size on "/dev/sda1" until the partition is full
The file system in the "/dev/sda1" partition already has the required length of 614,400 sectors.
Increase file system size on '/dev/sda1' until the partition is full: Success
Check and repair the «/dev/sda1» partition (300.00 MiB,fat32): Completed successfully

Edit 2: the fault is the usb, probably sometimes don't provide enough power and the hard drive cannot power up properly. If I power cycle the computer a few times it will boot without any problems

In conversation with Women in GIS Kenya
Blog / Caroline Akoth / June 8, 2020
Women in GIS Kenya (WIGIS KE) is a community of innovators and a network of talented individuals who are using their technical geospatial skills for social good and causes. They are a champion for women in the field of Earth observation (EO) and Geospatial Information Systems (GIS). Through networking events, mentoring and online challenges, they are helping to bridge the gender divide and to advance the great strides made by women in GIS today.
The Group on Earth Observations (GEO) was invited to take part in an online conversation with WIGIS KE. They asked Steven Ramage, Head of External Relations at the GEO Secretariat, to take part as a guest curator of their Twitter handle @WiGISKe. This was an opportunity for the Women in GIS Kenya community to interact, learn and benefit from the global network of GEO.
Part of the objectives of having GEO host as the curator for the week was to increase user engagement for the Women in GIS Kenya Community (the number of Twitter followers increased by 10% in 3 days - almost at 1000!) as well as increase information sharing between geospatial communities. During the curated session, Steven highlighted examples of work by other organisations to support gender inclusivity in the global geospatial space and a lively conversation drew in people from around the world to learn more about WIGIS KE.
As part of the curation, Steven Ramage hosted an "Ask me Anything" session, tagged with #RamageAMA, through which he interacted with users and provided insights on topics such as innovations in EO, starting out in the geospatial field and new and exciting opportunities in the field for youth and women to get involved. He's subsequently mentioned that GEO now has an Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) working group.
One of the key takeaways was that GEO is a very open community - open data, open standards and open science. It's also open for participation through national GEO organisations, for example working in different countries with GEO members or partners. The GEO Work Programme is the main place for such engagement, as well as GEO Week meetings and the GEO Virtual Symposium happening June 15-19.
Here are some highlights from the online conversation:

More about Women in GIS Kenya
The Women in GIS Kenya Journey started in 2017 after having hosted the 1st ever meet up for the geospatial community in Kenya. It was while hosting the meet up that co-founders Sophia Murage (Chief Technical Director), Caroline Otiwa (Operations and Advocacy Director) and Yariwo Kitiyo (Strategy and Development Director) figured that this needed to be a frequent occurrence but to host a lady in the next meet up. The realisation that it wasn't as easy to get in touch with experienced ladies in the field for a session led to the birth of Women In GIS. Kenya. A platform that has over the years transformed the geospatial industry in Kenya through 3 pillars: To Network, Build Capacity and to champion the use of data to achieve Gender Equality in Kenya.

WIGIS KE currently has a membership of over 500 people made up of students and professionals in Kenya. Through various Data Visualization Challenges, they have reached and impacted over 1500 people through social media campaigns and outreach.

CHAPTER VIII. ESCAPE.
When Elsie awoke in the morning, after at last falling into a dull, heavy sleep, she had not an opportunity of seeing what sort of weather it was. There was no light in their rude sleeping place, except the dim one that came through the aperture from the other room. She listened, and hearing sounds of life below, she hastily rose, and creeping down the ladder, went in search of her frock.
Mrs. Ferguson was already up, and busy. Elsie asked for her frock, but Mrs. Ferguson told her it was not dry, and she had better make what shift she could with the old gown she had given her on the previous night. As she could nowhere see her dress, she was obliged reluctantly to follow the woman's advice.
To her delight, she perceived that the morning was bright and warm after the rain, and she fully resolved, as soon as their things were decently dry, to be on their road once more.
In the meantime, however, Duncan's jacket had also disappeared. She could get nothing out of Mrs. Ferguson about it, except that it was drying, and Duncan had to put up with a cotton jacket, which Mrs. Ferguson stripped from her own boy's back to give him.
This mystery as to the whereabouts of their clothes very greatly annoyed Elsie, who tried in vain to make Mrs. Ferguson say where they were. She pretended not to understand what Elsie meant, though Elsie felt quite sure all that was feigned.
Their breakfast consisted of some thin watery porridge, without bread, sugar, or milk.
When their scanty meal was ended, Mrs. Ferguson ordered them to go out and help Sandy Ferguson, her husband, who was waiting outside for them. At first Elsie felt disposed to refuse, but on second thoughts, she obeyed. Sandy Ferguson was on the spot, his wife in the kitchen, with the cottage door open, their two boys about here, there, and everywhere.
To get away unperceived was out of the question, besides the serious matter of losing their garments, which Elsie had not yet been able to discover.
So they had to work away in company with the two ragged urchins. Elsie was boiling with rage, but she hid it as well as she could; and as for poor Duncan, he worked away without uttering a word, but with only an occasional inquiring glance at Elsie, which was infinitely touching.
Elsie soon perceived that there would be no chance of their pursuing their journey that day. Mrs. Ferguson protested that she was getting their things dried as fast as she could, and would say nothing more; but Elsie had a keen misgiving that for some reason or other she did not mean to let them go.
Was it possible that she knew anything of their mother, and was thinking to send them back? or did she only mean to keep them there, and make them work for her family?
At times Elsie felt a terrible fear creeping over her that these dreadful people meant to steal or hurt her and Duncan. "Perhaps she wants our clothes," Elsie thought, "for she knows we have no more pennies!"
So she took the first opportunity she could find to tell Mrs. Ferguson that they didn't think they could wait any longer for their things to get dry; they could easily get some more at Killochrie. She said this with an air of indifference. She would put her jacket on over her stuff petticoat, and that would do very well. Duncan could wear the cotton jacket, and leave his tweed one behind.
But all this made no impression on Mrs. Ferguson. She only laughed grimly to herself; and as their things were not forthcoming, Elsie might as well have spared her generosity... Continue reading book >>

Ambica Selvaraj was born in a multicultural neighbourhood in Colombo in April 1951. Though she spoke Tamil at home and in school, she spent most of her childhood in the company of Sinhalese and English-speaking children, unaware of the issues that would become so salient later on. 'Even when the ['58] riots had happened,' she says, 'there was no issue afterwards with the children.' Originally from Upcountry, her father strove to address the plight of Indian plantation labourers and passed on his passion for politics to his daughter. She studied economics and political science at Peradeniya University, 'heaven on earth' in her words. It was at Peradeniya where she first came in contact with a large contingent of Tamils from Jaffna: 'That was the first time I got exposed to this Tamil thing, yeah, people really making an issue of being proud of Tamil and speaking Tamil.' She first came to London in 1974, at the age of 23. 'I wanted to be free to travel, to study, to see the world,' she says, 'That was in my blood. And I didn't want to get married. Being the eldest, I thought this marriage thing is going to start.' Once in London, she immediately fell in love with the city and set about convincing her father to allow her to stay and pursue nursing. On one of her frequent return visits to Sri Lanka, she vividly remembers the mood after the '77 riots and feeling, for the first time, like a stranger in her own country. This feeling intensified in 1983, when her family were caught in the 1983 riots and forced to seek refuge in India. The anger and outrage she felt at the time has since subsided and she now channels her energy into her work as a health visitor with refugees and asylum seekers in London, challenging perceptions in the health service about newly-arrived communities and serving as a figure of support for Tamil refugees coming to terms with life outside of Sri Lanka.
I WANTED TO BE FREE
Ambica Selvaraj, 62, talks about her childhood in a cosmopolitan section of Colombo and her desire to forge out on her own and travel to London…
'Lovely, I mean carefree, large family, you know. Though we were large I think
I was kind of a bully, you know, being the eldest and my father's pet and the
favourite, so I think the others were kind of, I don't know whether they were
scared of me but I was a bully. And my sister who is next to me was more close
to the brothers, the youngest girl – there is a ten-year gap. So when we were
very young she wasn't around. But lovely memories, playing cricket, cops and
robbers…So always in the evening all you remember is playing in the evening
with neighbour's children, oh, carefree.'
'We all played together fine. The only difference was we knew we belonged to
different ethnicity or linguistic groups, but otherwise we were children all playing
together. With the Burghers obviously you spoke English, but, you know, there
were children who spoke Sinhalese…and Farsi…you know those traders, those
rich traders, Kundanmals and Nagindas? They were there in Kirulapana…
so English and Sinhalese. There were Tamils, some Tamils. Can't remember.
We got on well. The language wasn't in the picture at all. We just got on well.
We had fun; we were children, climbing trees. No, language was not an issue.
Even when the riots had happened, there was no issue afterwards with the
children. When we were playing it never came into the picture.'
…her experience of the changing social landscape in Sri Lanka on one of her return visits from London after the '77 riots …
'And the '77 riots must have been very bad because when the thugs in the lane
had told my father – because he was respected because he spoke Sinhalese
fluently and we had no difference, we mixed very well – 'We protected you all,
we didn't allow any thugs to come down this road this time. But if this
happens soon, next time we won't be able to protect.' Just like that, people
have turned, and are seeing you like not Sri Lankans, different…and then
of course '78 I go, so the discussion is all about maybe we shouldn't have our
own house, not in that particular area anyway. My father had to sell it for
nothing, really… So that's the time I felt, though I was not in the middle of the
riots there, that 'OK, we are different and we could be hurt. We won't be
protected, we won't have the same protection from our leaders, from our
politicians, because we are different.''
…her conflicting impressions of the inspiration and the isolation of arriving
'I came and of course I loved it here because it's, you know, staying at your
uncle's house, wedding preparation, partying, going out, sightseeing,
I thought no way I'm going back. So I spoke to my uncle and I said, 'I want
to stay' but the problem was I had done a general degree in economics and
political science so tried a few jobs, no. Can't study because there were four
children to be educated. So my uncle said, 'The only option, if you want to
stay here and support yourself, is to do nursing.' It came as a shock to me
because I didn't even do medicine, think of medicine, because I used to feel
sick of wards and the smell of medicine. So the time was getting nearer,
either go – six months visa – I extended it for another six months. So my
cousin said they had friends in the nurse's home. Their friends from Malaysia
were doing nursing. They said, 'Why don't you just come meet them?'
So when I went to the nurses home, of course lovely, met all the girls,
their friends. And they said, 'Just apply, you can always say no.' I got the
training. Then when I told my parents, my father said to my uncle, 'Send her
back. You sponsored her. She is coming back. She is not doing nursing.'
[To interviewer] You know how it's looked down on in Sri Lanka. Nursing
is not accepted from certain families…
I was excited because I came alone but I was coming for a wedding. I was
going to live with my uncle, cousins. My cousin was going to get married;
she was at the airport with her fiancée. Oh, fascinated, the materialism,
the cleanliness. There was a touch of loneliness in the airport in you when
you got off, until you are met. Because you know it's so lonely, so many
people and rushing around and that feeling of being in a small place and a
sense of belonging wasn't there. Suddenly I was nobody, among these
thousands of people that were not from Sri Lanka, not Sri Lankans, I was
nobody. So there was no sense of belonging. You were a stranger, you could
drop dead and I got the feeling that nobody cared. You were nothing. And it
was scary. But I knew somebody will meet me. Whereas when you go to
Sri Lanka and you touch the thing, you look around and you are in your
place where you belong. Even if there is racism but you just know you belong
there. Nobody is going to look at you and say, 'Who are you?' Such coldness,
no inquisitiveness, no curiosity, it's just like machines, people are just
getting on with their lives.'
…her work as a health visitor with refugee and asylum seekers…
'…Now in the UK, I work as a specialist health visitor with mostly marginalised
communities who are refugees, asylum seekers, and I work in Hayes, where
there is a large Tamil Sri Lankan refugee population, and I speak Tamil,
so I work very closely with them, with all of them. But because I speak the
language, maybe more Tamils come to me, and I have listened to the stories,
and I've cried with some of them, and I know they are suffering here too.
Not because now they are fearful of the Sinhalese but their own issues, their
own stuff is coming out, depression, anger, domestic violence, a sense of not
belonging, you know, being in a place, but wanting to be in a place which is
not there anymore.'
…and her hopes to contribute to a future settlement to ongoing issues in
'I have a dream, like Martin Luther King said, that I could maybe do some work
in Sri Lanka, towards reconciliation and peace building. I have to brush up my
Sinhalese so I can speak fluently, and from the work I'm doing here, I think,
I know I can influence people in a positive way, in a non-threatening way,
without getting defensive about my ethnicity and my religion, because I've no
issues with it, because even now, when people say, 'Are you a Tamil?' I say,
'I'm British, I'm Sri Lankan, I speak Tamil, but I also speak Sinhalese, I also
speak English' because I don't want to say I'm a Tamil, that immediately
separates me – maybe I'm a woman. I'll use the things that bind us, not that
separate us. And then when they say, 'What religion you are?' I just say,
'I'm everything.' And people are just saying, 'What do you mean everything?'
I say, 'I'm everything, I'm a Buddhist, I'm a Hindu,' because I believe in all
those things…Lots of good things are happening in Sri Lanka. I know there
are lots of people working towards lots of good things…'

Refinery 29: "Like mom jeans, it's a little funny when a stereotype sparks a fashion obsession. And while it took a while to dissociate the denim style from its middle-aged wearers of the '80s (and to learn that it wasn't something all mothers wore), it finally caught on as a must-have pair of bottoms for a whole new generation.
Well, step aside, "moms," because it's time for "dad" style to share the spotlight. You know the general aesthetic we're talking about — picture President Obama in his crisp jeans and polo shirt, teeing up on a golf course in Hawaii, a fitted hat shielding his eyes. Well, that aesthetic may not be true for fathers everywhere, but baseball caps are officially mom jeans 2.0. And the item that's typically associated with little-league games and family vacations is actually becoming a must-have accessory.
In place of beanies, snapbacks, and even berets, the "dad" hat is taking center stage among celebrities and fashion folks, alike, meaning one very important thing: You'll officially never have to worry about having a bad hair day again. Yet another staple being revived thanks to normcore, these typically solid-colored, cotton pieces (and normally embroidered with some type of logo or pop-culture reference) are becoming a staple in a whole new way. And the best part about that? You probably already own one.


This post is from Dr. Nick Anderson, a psychologist at Dr-Groks, who has spent his career helping brands all over the world to understand the complexity and apparent irrationality of their consumers and apply sound psychological principles to create impactful product design and communications.
Qualitative research is about relationships.
In our research-lives the relationships we have with consumers and end-users is central to getting our jobs done. The better we can know them, and get them to share their lives, behaviours, and beliefs with us – the more astute our insights become and the better our work is as a result.
Lots has been written already about how online platforms can help us connect with our consumers, but there has been relatively little mentioned about how a well run platform like Recollective helps with client relationships too.
For me, the relationship I have with my client-partner is just as important as the ones I have with my consumers. The more honest and authentic this relationship is, the more we feel like partners, and the more focused (and fun) the work is.
As always, IIeX was a great experience for the entire Recollective team and for me, personally. We made some great connections, learned a lot and participated in collaborative problem solving.
Part of the experience for us was hosting a roundtable with people who participate in marketing research studies. We did this to further our ongoing conversation about what our industry is like for them. Our goal is to create a more open dialogue between our side of the industry and theirs; the hope being that we can work towards some foundational shifts in our thinking and find some solutions to our shared problems with quality and trust.
And the entire Cross Tabs team.
A couple of weeks ago we were basking in the sunshine and heat of Atlanta, attending the Insight Innovation Exchange (IIeX) conference. Each year provides a fantastic opportunity to not only meet new and existing customers, but to also soak up some great presentations by speakers from North America.
We're delighted to have Brent Schmidt, CEO of Strategic Fuel, contribute to our blog this month and share his case study of their very first Recollective-based project.
Is a corporate training company that believes energized and engaged employees fuel great customer experiences and better business results. That's why the organization places a focus on ideas, skills and tools people can put to use immediately.
Driven by the challenge of bringing leaders, teams and customers onto the same page, Strategic Fuel takes a creative and collaborative approach to craft an insight-driven shared focus and direction for organizations and teams. Juice Inc. is a client of Strategic Fuel.
For interesting results, mix teenagers with a dash of alcohol in an online research community, garnish with lime (or the branding of your choice).
The community ran over 2 weeks with 20 participants. It aimed to establish a comprehensive understanding of recently of-age participants' relationships with various liquors and how these associations influence their in-store decision making.

If you have been thinking about starting a small business, the field of internet marketing is full of opportunities. As consumers', we are constantly bombarded by marketing and advertising messages everywhere we go and look. Or at least that is how I feel. Anyway, businesses, large and small, are all trying to get our attention. They want us to feel like we need their product. They want us to want their product or service enough to buy it right away. From a consumers' standpoint, all of these ads can be very frustrating.
Yet, this competition for the consumer's attention creates a lot of internet marketing business opportunities. Companies NEED help getting the consumer's attention. They are willing to pay for this help. The most successful businesses are those that are serving a need.
I first started working on writing this post right after Thanksgiving Day. In the United States, the seven days that follow Thanksgiving make up the busiest shopping week of the year. First there is Black Friday, then Small Business Saturday. The following Monday is Cyber Monday. During this time, retailers are trying to capture the shoppers attention. Everyone seems to be having a sale.
I found myself wondering, "What does a company need to do to stand out among all the competition?" What does a store or company need to do to get the customers attention? A company can offer the best service. They have the best quality products at reasonable price. Yet if people are not aware that the store or product even exits, they will not spend their money at store. Maybe people are aware of that the store had something they wanted but they forgot about the store when it came time to make the purchase. Both scenarios result in lost revenue. Stores and companies HAVE to find a way to capture the potential customer's attention. This is done through marketing and advertising.
Online marketplaces & consignment shops.
The cost of starting a small online marketing business can be less than $100. On the other hand, the startup costs will quickly increase as the need for staff members, equipment purchases, consultants and the size of the advertising budget increases.
Due to the diversity of types of companies that require marketing assistance, an internet marketing business is well suited to focusing on a niche or specific type of product, store or service. The possibilities are limited only by the business owner's imagination.
In today's world, it takes more to standout online than it did when most people made their purchases or acquired their services from places with brick and mortar buildings. If a business or organization can not attract paying customers, clients or donors; it will not survive. Thus the ability to be found online is extremely important for most businesses that serve people beyond their immediate neighborhood or town.
The American Marketing Association stated that online marketing (digital marketing) is no longer an add on. It is imperative.
The American Marketing Association defines marketing as "The activity, set of institutions, and processes for creating, communicating, delivering, and exchanging offerings that have value for customers, clients, partners, and society at large.
-Help consumers' discover items or services that they would like to purchase.
Business and organizations of all sizes can benefit from market research, planning and implementing the marketing plans. At the same time, not everyone can afford to employ an entire marketing department. Instead, it is better for them to seek the assistance of marketing consultants when they have the need.
Marketing consultants may conduct marketing research. They may prepare marketing strategies and plans. Marketing consultants may also analyze results and communicate the results of marketing campaigns.
Some marketing consultants may specialize in very specific niches within the online business world. For example, they may specialize in search engine optimization (SEO) processes, online branding or social media.
People that would like to start a business as a marketing consultant should have marketing experience.
Affiliate marketing is a type of online business that does not require a lot of money to start. With this type of small business, the owner does not have to have its own inventory of products or services to sell. Instead, the business owner uses his or her website or blog to market other company's products or services.
Both large and small companies use the services of affiliate marketers. Amazon, Walmart, EBay, Etsy, Home Depot are just a few examples of company's that have affiliate marketing programs as part of their overall marketing strategy.
Company's like to use the services of affiliate marketers because affiliate marketers get paid on a commission basis. If the affiliate marketer's efforts are not producing results, they do not get paid. Affiliate marketers usually get раіd еіthеr а реrсеntаgе оf ѕаlеѕ thаt rеѕult frоm thеіr rеfеrrаlѕ, оr а flаt fее реr lеаd оr сlісk-thrоugh thаt rеѕult frоm thеіr mаrkеtіng efforts.
Ideally, the affiliate marketer is someone that enjoys education people about the topic they are marketing. Most affiliate marketers choose one or more specialized niches to focus one. For example, one person may choose to concentrate on the coolest, newest cells phones. Another may focus on diets and exercise tips for expectant mothers. Yet another affiliate marketer may be assisting people plan their next dream vacation.
How do you learn to set up an affiliate marketing business?
If you are interested in learning more about affiliate marketing or increasing traffic to a business website, I recommend finding a training program. Although there are some very expensive programs out there, some are very reasonable.
I highly recommend joining the Wealthy Affiliate training community to learn more about affiliate marketing. The training program will guide you through setting up niche websites from scratch, creating content, finding affiliate marketing opportunities, inserting those links into your website and generating traffic. In addition to the how-to certification courses, new training and webinars are added weekly.
In full disclosure, I have been a Wealthy Affiliate member for a year now. The things I have learned are also applicable to creating online stores and online marketing in general. WA has a free starter, introductory plan. However, the training courses are detailed enough that there is no way that you will be able to learn everything before you get cut off from the premium features. The premium membership is $49 a month. You can save more by paying yearly. For more information, follow this link: Wealthy Affiliate training program & community.
You could start an advertising agency that finds companies willing to pay for advertising and marketing services.
Sell advertising space on your website, blog or newsletters. In this business model, the owner of a website, blog or newsletter charges companies or people for the opportunity to advertise on their website or in their online newsletter.
Unlike the affiliate marketing model, a company will have to pay for the advertising or sponsorship space upfront. This model is the online version of collecting fees for advertising space in newspapers, magazines, television, radio, newsletters or even at sporting events.
With this business model, the advertising revenue is not the primary purpose of the business. It simply provides an income stream that supplements a primary activity. For example, the Super Bowl's purpose is not to serve as the source of the best television advertisements. It's purpose is to determine which of two football teams will win the most prestigious football game of the year. The Super Bowl attracts so much attention that companies pay huge sum to have advertisements run during that game. In addition to advertising revenue, the owners also generate income from ticket sales, vendor booth commissions, etc.
Likewise, a news outlet's primary function is providing the community with up to date news. To do so, they employ writers, camera and videographers, editors in addition to the advertising department. If you start a advertising sales company, you would be looking for companies that want to outsource their advertising department activities. The other possibility would be to find a growing company that needs help coordinating with people willing to pay for advertisers on their site.
Lastly, it is entirely possible that someone could have a blog that they started as a hobby and then monetize it with affiliate income. However, if it becomes extremely successful, they may decide to sell their advertising space for the guaranteed income. In these cases, the advertisers must be willing to pay more for the space upfront than could be generated from the affiliate commission model.
This internet marketing opportunity is a business model that provides a platform or place for other people to sell their products or services. In this model, the online business owner is responsible for all the marketing efforts to get potential buyers to come to the website. If the website does not have traffic, people will not be willing to list their products there.
In most of these cases, the seller is willing to pay the online marketing company to list their product and/or give them a percentage of the sales revenue. With this model, the online marketing company does not own the merchandise sold unless the owners really want to.
EBay or Etsy: These websites allow people to list their merchandise that is for sale, they also handle payment collection. Seller pays a listing fee and a percentage of sales revenue.
Amazon: Sellers with Amazon stores receive marketing and payment collection. Sellers also have an option to use logistics services to store and ship their inventory. Since Amazon is able to attract more buyer customers, they charge sellers more than EBay or Etsy does.
Another variation of this type of internet marketing is an online consignment shop. The seller consigns their item to the online retailer, who is responsible for all marketing, sales inquires and collecting payment. The seller may send the merchandise to the online shop. Or they may be responsible for mailing the items to the buyer after payment has been received.
For example, a good friend of mine has a website that markets and sells used fun center equipment such as laser tag, mechanical bulls and bowling alleys. He lists the equipment on his website, handles inquiries and receives a commission when the items are sold.
The key to successfully creating an online marketing business in this category will identifying unmet needs that sellers and/or buyers currently have. As big as Amazon, EBay & Etsy are, there is still opportunities for an entrepreneurial and creative business person to come up with an online marketing model that address some of the challenges that sellers face when using EBay, Amazon or Etsy.
Please let me know if you have any comments or questions. Can you think of any other internet marketing business opportunities?
Is affiliate marketing a myth? Is affiliate marketing a scam? What is affiliate marketing?

Similar data for one year. How can I achieve this data in java. As I am new to java I am struggling to solve this issue. Please help with your explanation or code if possible.
PS: There are 53 weeks in a year.

A: I would perform this with a good old loop :
public void workingDayOfYear() {
    LocalDate date = LocalDate.of(2019, 6, 24); // Java 8 date
    int initialWeekOfyear = date.get(WeekFields.of(Locale.UK).weekOfWeekBasedYear());
    int weekOfYear = initialWeekOfyear;
    do {
        LocalDate firstDayOfWeek = date.with(WeekFields.of(Locale.UK).dayOfWeek(), 1L);
        LocalDate lastWorkingDayOfWeek = date.with(WeekFields.of(Locale.UK).dayOfWeek(), 5L);

        StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder("Week : ");
        result.append(weekOfYear);
        result.append(", start=");
        result.append(firstDayOfWeek);
        result.append(", end=");
        result.append(lastWorkingDayOfWeek);

        System.out.println(result.toString());
        date = date.plusWeeks(1);
    } while ((weekOfYear = date.get(WeekFields.of(Locale.UK).weekOfWeekBasedYear())) != initialWeekOfyear);
}

Output:

Week : 26, start=2019-06-24, end=2019-06-28
Week : 27, start=2019-07-01, end=2019-07-05
...
Week : 24, start=2020-06-08, end=2020-06-12
Week : 25, start=2020-06-15, end=2020-06-19

Notice that the 53rd week you need is in fact the first week of 2020.
