Q: Two variables in where clause I want to declare multiple variables based on user input and use them all as conditions in a WHERE clause. I have the variables hard set to the values I want right now for testing. I plan on using the @Well and @Analyst variables in a similar manner in the future. Here is the code:
DECLARE @Analysis nvarchar(20)
DECLARE @SQLQuery nvarchar(max)
DECLARE @Formation nvarchar(50)
DECLARE @Well nvarchar(30)
DECLARE @Analyst nvarchar(50)
SET @Analysis = 'Elemental Analysis'
SET @Formation = 'Bruce'
SET @SQLQuery = N'SELECT TB_Projects.JobLog#, TB_Projects.ProjName, COUNT(TB_Samples.Sample#) AS [Total Samples]
FROM TB_Projects INNER JOIN TB_Samples ON TB_Projects.JobLog# = TB_Samples.JobLog#
WHERE TB_Samples.['+ @Analysis +'] = 1 AND TB_Projects.Formation ='+@Formation+' GROUP BY TB_Projects.JobLog#, TB_Projects.ProjName'
EXECUTE(@SQLQuery)

I receive the following error with this code:
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
Invalid column name 'Bruce'.
'Bruce' should be the value returned for the column TB_Projects.Formation, it's not a column name. Why doesn't this work?

A: You have this in the string:
TB_Projects.Formation = '+@Formation+'

This is turned into:
TB_Projects.Formation = Bruce

See the problem?  If you printed out the string before you ran it, the problem would probably be obvious.
The simplest solution is:
TB_Projects.Formation = '''+@Formation+'''

That will add single quotes.
A better solution is to use sp_executesql with a parameter for the value.

A: you need to wrap Formation value in single quotes:
SET @SQLQuery = N'SELECT TB_Projects.JobLog#, TB_Projects.ProjName, COUNT(TB_Samples.Sample#) AS [Total Samples]
FROM TB_Projects INNER JOIN TB_Samples ON TB_Projects.JobLog# = TB_Samples.JobLog#
WHERE TB_Samples.['+ @Analysis +'] = 1 AND TB_Projects.Formation ='''+@Formation+''' GROUP BY TB_Projects.JobLog#, TB_Projects.ProjName'
EXECUTE(@SQLQuery)

Robyn Hitchcock at Gateway City Arts - Holyoke, MA
Robyn Hitchcock is one of England's most enduring contemporary singer/songwriters and live performers. A surrealist poet, talented guitarist, cult artist and musician's musician, Hitchcock is among alternative rock's father figures and is the closest thing the genre has to a Bob Dylan (not coincidentally his biggest musical inspiration).
Since founding the art-rock band The Soft Boys in 1976, Robyn has recorded more than 20 albums as well as starred in 'Storefront Hitchcock' an in concert film recorded in New York and directed by Jonathan Demme.
Blending folk and psychedelia with a wry British nihilism, Robyn describes his songs as 'paintings you can listen to'. His most recent album is self-titled and marks his 21st release as a solo artist. Out on April 21 2017, the album is produced by Brendan Benson (The Raconteurs). Hitchcock describes it as a "ecstatic work of negativity with nary a dreary groove."
It has received rave reviews from UNCUT, Rolling Stone, Paste, Tidal and more.
"A gifted melodist, Hitchcock nests engaging lyrics in some of the most bracing, rainbow-hued pop this side of Revolver. He wrests inspiration not from ordinary life but from extraordinary imaginings…" – Rolling Stone
"These 10 gems slither, rock, roll, glide and shapeshift, coalescing around Hitchcock's typically anxious, strained but striking and immediately identifiable vocals." – American Songwriter
"Beloved of everyone from Led Zeppelin to REM, Hitchcock has only enhanced his status with this wonderful outing." – Hot Press
"Witty, moving and seriously catchy, Robyn Hitchcock is a glorious return for a man who wasn't really gone in the first place." – Paste Magazine

Here is a short clip that demonstrates some in stances of the dynamic soundtrack stuff we have used. The long and short of it is, the player's position, run time and other events changes how the soundtrack playback is mixed, effected and filtered.
Our hope is to build on the sense of atmosphere and depth in the game, and also being in upbeat elements for when things get more intense.

Q: Prepared statement works for INSERT but not for SELECT EDIT: SOLVED, SEE BELOW But still dont know what did I do to make it work :)
OK, I am stuck now. I have table users:
ID int PRIMARY AUTO_INCREMENT
EMAIL varchar(60)
NICK varchar(60)
//...

If I do:
<?php
$email = $_POST["mai"];
$nickname = $_POST["nck"];
$mysqli = new mysqli($db_host, $db_username, $db_password, $database);
$prepared_statement = "INSERT INTO users VALUES(?,?,?)";
if ($stmt = $mysqli->prepare($prepared_statement)) {
 $id = "";
 $stmt->bind_param("iss",$id,$email,$nickname);
 $stmt->execute();
}
?>

It works every single time. But if I do the same with select:
<?php
 $previous_entries = new mysqli($db_host, $db_username, $db_password, $database);
 $check = $previous_entries->prepare("SELECT ID,NICK FROM users WHERE EMAIL=?;");
 $check->bind_param("s",$email);
 $check->execute();
 $check->bind_result($maybe_id,$maybe_got_something);

  while ($check->fetch()) { //here was typo, but fixed now
    if ($maybe_got_something==$nickname){
     echo "Hooray!";
    }
  }

?>

I never ever see the "Hooray!"
But, If I change it like this:
$previous_entries = new mysqli($db_host, $db_username, $db_password, $database);
$prepared_statement = "SELECT ID,NICK FROM users WHERE EMAIL=";
$prepared_statement .=$email;
$result = $previous_entries->query($prepared_statement);
while ($row = $result->fetch_array()){
  if ($row["NICK"]==$nickname){
     echo "Hooray!";
    }
}

Then everything is ok.
I am doing some terrible mistake in prepared statement. But I really really cannot find it... What am I doing wrong here?
EDIT: Updated the script to correct bad typo, and added these two rows:
echo "maybeid: ".. $maybe_id;
echo "maybenick:". $maybe_got_something;

Page echos this:
  maybeid: maybenick:

EDIT: WORKING CODE
When trying to debug it, I got to this:
$previous_entries = new mysqli($db_host, $db_username, $db_password, $database);
$check = $previous_entries->prepare("SELECT ID,NICK FROM users WHERE EMAIL=?;");
$check->bind_param("s",$email);
$check->execute();
$check->bind_result($maybeid,$maybenick);
echo "maybeid: ".$maybeid;
echo "maybenick:". $maybenick;
// got rid of the if statement
  while ($check->fetch()) {
    echo "maybeid: ".$maybeid;
    echo "maybenick:". $maybenick;
    if ($maybenick==$nickname){

     echo "Hooray!";
    }
  }

But ... why is it worrking? :)

A: The prepared query is $check but you are using $stmt when fetching.

A: Try this (use a statement object returned from prepare):
<?php
 $previous_entries = new mysqli($db_host, $db_username, $db_password, $database);
 $check = $previous_entries->prepare("SELECT ID,NICK FROM users WHERE EMAIL=?;");
 $check->bind_param("s",$email);
 $check->execute();
 $check->bind_result($maybe_id,$maybe_got_something);
 if($check->num_rows > 0){
  while ($check->fetch()) {
    if ($maybe_got_something==$nickname){
     echo "Hooray!";
    }
  }
}
?>

A: Try to change $stmt->fetch() with this one $check->fetch()
You could probably need to set your error_reporting level to something like
error_reporting  =  E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
in your php.ini for development enviroment to avoid this kind of mistakes.
Regards

A: You must change your code like this:
...
$check = $previous_entries->prepare("SELECT ID,NICK FROM users WHERE EMAIL=:email;");
$check->bind_param(":email",$email);
...

Onkyo Debuts DS-A1 Apple iPod Dock
By Ian Bell	 April 27, 2005 3:15AM PST
Onkyo has introduced its DS-A1 Remote Interactive Dock to provide seamless integration of iPod audio playback and photo display with millions of the company's home entertainment systems, includingthe ability to control these functions with the existing Onkyo remote control.
While there are many adapters available to link iPod music to a home entertainment receiver, Onkyo's Remote Interactive Dock adds the ability to operate key control functions using the receiver's remote control. This allows Apple Computer's iPods to function as a part of the home entertainment system as easily as if they were a home CD player or other traditional audio component. Because it employs the company's long-running RI system, the DS-A1 dock is backwards-compatible with most of the Onkyo components manufactured in the past decade.
The Onkyo RI system enables users to operate an entire system of the company's components with a single remote control. The DS-A1 dock provides a complete interface between these Onkyo audio/video components and the iPod. With the iPod placed in the dock, it becomes a source component for not only audio playback, but also for photography stored in iPod photo units. Basic iPod controls such as play, pause, stop, skip, and shuffle / repeat functions can all be operated via the Onkyo system remote controller. Additionally, the dock is capable of recharging the iPod batteries while it is in use.
The rear of the DS-A1 includes high quality stereo analog and S-Video connections, delivering the audio and video signals from the iPod to the Onkyo component. Additionally, an AC adapter supplies power to recharge the iPod batteries, and a 1/8″ RI jack is employed to carry control signals to the player. A switch on the bottom of the dock can be set to Tape/MD/CDR/or HDD, depending on the port being used on the Onkyo component.
Additional benefits to the DS-A1 interface include the ability to integrate startup and shutdown, timer and sleep functions, and alarm wake ups on compatible components. When playback on the iPod is initiated through the RI system, the Onkyo input selector is automatically adjusted to the iPod. When the iPod alarm function is employed, the Onkyo device can be set to automatically power up and begin playback. Using the S-Video output, a photo slide show can be reproduced from the iPod on connected display devices.
The DS-A1 RI dock is compatible with third and fourth generation iPods, iPod photos, and iPod minis. RI remote controlled components from Onkyo include nearly every audio and home theater receiver, processor, package systems, and all-in-one component systems the company has introduced in the past 10 years.
The Onkyo DS-A1 Remote Interactive dock for iPod features an attractive white finish to match most iPod models, and includes all the connection and cabling necessary for operation. It will begin shipping in May, and will have a suggested retail price of $100.

Are you trying to access FZMovies.net but experiencing the download site being unavailable? There is another movie downloading site you should try out instead.
As a movie lover who enjoys watching movies on his tablet instead of watching via TV, you would agree with me that the best option would be downloading movies on mobile.
Personally, I download basically from FZMovies.net. If you love downloading high quality free movies like me, then you probably should have come across FZmovies.net in your exploration.
Unfortunately, for some couple of days now,fzmovies.net has been unavailable due to the site being suspended by its host. This has sort-of lead me to research for a closely related movie downloading site.
Fortunately for me,I was able to find something related.
Yes, even the domain names seem familiar. If you look closely, the only difference in both domains is the domain extension (.net, .co).
Although the second domain is cool, I still prefer the latter when it comes to movies.
On Fzmovies.co, you will need to download a movie twice as movies are divided into two parts. Part A and part B just like some VCD movies are made of two basic parts.
I have downloaded a couple of movies from the website. As stated earlier, I still prefer the latter as the movies there are of more quality.
However, since that website isn't available, then using an alternative shouldn't be a bad idea.
Oh well, the main idea of this post is to expose you to an alternative site for downloading movies which i think to the best of my understanding, i have accomplished.
We would sure appreciate it if you could share some movie downloads related sites you know.
Hopefully when fzmovies.net is restored, i would share with you an information on how to download from the site easily without problems.

Basecamp Classic: How does the privacy setting work in Basecamp?
Private items can be seen by members of your primary Basecamp company but can NOT be viewed by people in your client companies. Account owners & admins can make files, messages, and to-do lists private. Milestones & events cannot be made private.
Clients will see no reference to the private items. They won't receive any email notifications related to private items. This allows you to share sensitive or not-yet-finalized information internally without needing to worry about clients accessing these entries.
Private items are called out with a small red "PRIVATE" item badge in the upper right corner of the item. They are highlighted in red on your Dashboard & Overview pages.
You can enable privacy for messages, files, and to-do lists when you are creating them. You can update this setting later, by clicking the 'Edit' link near that item.
Privacy settings are inherited. This means a file attached to a comment on a private to-do list will also be private.

Form 990 Information
The Institute for Research on Presidential Elections (IRPE) was launched in 2006 to advocate for replacing the state-by-state Electoral College system of Presidential elections with a nationwide popular vote.[1] Its founder is John Koza, a left-leaning California businessman who made his fortune by inventing the scratch-off lottery ticket.[2]
In 2001, Robert Bennett, a professor at Northwestern University Law School, published Popular Election of the President Without a Constitutional Amendment.[3] In the paper, he argued it is "entirely possible that just a few states – conceivably just one or two – could bring about de facto direct election. And if that were to occur, opposition to a constitutional amendment might just melt away." Bennett admitted that a move to a nationwide popular vote was not "obviously a good thing."[4]
Building upon Bennett's paper, brothers Akhil Reed Amar and Vikram David Amar authored How to Achieve Direct National Election of the President Without Amending the Constitution.[5] The article focused on eleven key states that would be sufficient to put a direct election system into effect.[6] They even went so far as to argue that once enough states join their conceived compact to trigger the 270 electoral vote threshold, any states not involved in the compact could be ignored and their elections viewed as "sideshows."[7]
Based upon the work of Bennett and the Amar brothers, Koza led the efforts to write the book that served as the foundation for IRPE, Every Vote Equal.[8] Koza wrote the book with Barry Fadem, Mark Grueskin, Michael Mandell, Robert Richie, and Joseph Zimmerman.[9] Along with publication of the book, Koza officially formed IRPE, along with a sister organization, National Popular Vote, which serves as its 501(c)4 lobbying arm.[10]
According to one recent in depth analysis of the organization, IRPE is better described as "the most viable campaign to change how Americans choose their leader [and] is being waged at booze-soaked junkets in luxury hotels around the country and even abroad."[11] According to this analysis, it "peddles a controversial idea: that state legislatures can put the popular-vote winner in the White House."[12]
In order to lure legislators, activists, and journalists to their seminars espousing the replacement of the constitutionally prescribed Electoral College with a national popular vote, IRPE has been known to host junkets "inside a four-star resort in a third-world country."[13] The arrangement for attendees is often as follows: "three days of sunshine, sightseeing, fine dining and free cocktails on the institute's dime, in exchange for being educated by seminar coordinators in the pool, at the bar, overlooking the Panama Canal – and most aggressively, during the five-hour workshop in a windowless conference room – about the history and weaknesses of the Electoral College, and the potential of a radical alternative."[14]
IRPE and National Popular Vote advocate a legislative proposal, the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, under which states independently pledge their Electors to whomever wins a plurality of the national votes cast.[15] The legislation contains a "trigger clause" which activates when enough states have joined the Compact to account for 270 electoral votes.[16]
The most recent federal filing in 2016 showed revenue of $550,504 and total expenditures of $593,470, representing a $42,966 operating deficit for the year.[17] The 2016 balance sheet showed a net fund balance of $27,600.[18] These numbers reflect a significant weakening of the organization's financial position. The prior year's revenue totaled $1,278,318, over twice as much as the 2016 revenue amount.[19] While the previous year's expenses were also significantly greater at $1,207,752, the operating budget for the previous year remained a positive $70,566.[20] Additionally, the 2015 balance sheet showed a net fund balance of $70,566.[21]
Compensation of current officers accounted for $235,971 of the organization's expenditures, in addition to an undetailed $230,469 in "management" fees for services.[22] Additionally, the organization spent $61,173 on conferences, conventions and meetings.[23]
Chairman Patrick Rosenstiel received $38,171 in compensation, president Ray Haynes received $46,500 in compensation, vice president Saul Anuzis received $120,000 in compensation, CFO/treasurer John Koza did not receive any compensation as a member of the board, and the secretary Larry Lessler received $31,300 in compensation.[24] All of the members, including Anuzis, received their compensation for an estimated average of ten hours of work per week.[25]
It appears that Koza has largely funded the organization. Koza has stated in interviews "he has spent more than $14 million on the project so far and has budgeted at least $2 million per year moving forward."[26]
The individuals involved include Republican operatives and well-known progressive Democrats.
The chairman of IRPE is Patrick Rosenstiel, who serves as the CEO of Ainsley Shea, a Minnesota-based public affairs firm. Ainsley Shea prominently displays the National Popular Vote project on its website as one of its key client matters.[27] Among other campaigns and efforts, he claims to have advised Republican Steve Forbes' Presidential campaign and to have served as a political field director related to "efforts across the West and Midwest to garner Senate support for U.S. Supreme Court candidates John Roberts and Samuel Alito."[28]
The president of IRPE is Ray Haynes, a former California state legislator and Republican.[29] A former liberal attorney, Haynes has described in detail his transition to a conservative philosophy following his involvement in a California "right to die" case.[30] In 2000, he served as national chairman of the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC).[31] Following his fourteen years in the state legislature, in 2014 he explored and ultimately entered a Congressional primary.[32] He did not advance out of the primary.[33]
The Vice President of IRPE, Saul Anuzis, has a long history in Republican politics, both in Michigan and nationally. After serving in numerous GOP roles in Michigan, he was elevated to Chairman of the Michigan Republican Party in 2005. After serving one term as Michigan's RNC Committeeman, he was defeated by the controversial social conservative firebrand Dave Agema in 2012 in what some described as an "upheaval."[34] Prior to his ouster from the RNC, he unsuccessfully ran for RNC Chairman in 2009 and 2011.[35] In 2016, he served as an advisor to the Ted Cruz Presidential campaign.[36]
John Koza, the founder of IRPE, also serves as its CFO/treasurer. Koza has long been interested in the Electoral College. In 1966, he published a board game involving Electoral College strategy.[37] He made much of his personal wealth between 1973 and 1987, when he served as co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Scientific Games Inc.[38] There, he co-invented the rub-off instant lottery ticket used by state lotteries.[39] He is the lead author of the book Every Vote Equal: A State-Based Plan for Electing the President by National Popular Vote.[40] Koza has admitted his partisan bent, noting that he decided to form IRPE "two years after [President] Bush's reelection, which boiled down to battleground Ohio, to wage war on the Electoral College."[41]
The secretary of IRP is Larry Lessler, a San Francisco-area CPA. Other individuals noted as being involved with IRPE but not listed as a member of the board include Scott Drexel, Stephen Silberstein, Chris Pearson, and Barry Fadem. Fadem is a California lawyer that specializes in campaign and election law and co-authored Every Vote Equal.[42] Pearson is a Vermont state legislator and member of the left-wing Vermont Progressive Party.[43] He previously was Director of the Presidential Election Reform program at Fair Vote (formerly the Center for Voting and Democracy) and a campaign and Congressional aide for left-wing then-U.S. Representative Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont).[44] Most recently he has pushed legislation that would limit the salaries of nonprofit employees.[45] Silberstein worked in the administration of the University of California, Berkeley and serves on several boards associated with Berkeley.[46] Finally, Drexel is the Managing Director of NMA Partners and has been an "advisor to some of the country's most active Democratic donors, activists, and business leaders" in addition to serving on finance committees "for several national Democratic committees."[47]

Oh I am so envious! I love west Cork. Where are you staying?
Beautiful cover and I fully understand the 'in your hands' benefit of a paperback. I'm not keen on digital reading so will look forward to this coming out to add to my 'books by friends' shelf! Congratulations!
Thank you! I have a buddy book-shelf too, but it is completely stuffed full as my friends are too prolific.
Wonderful, Kath, and it is indeed a stupendous cover – makes you want to be there and talk to her.
Thank you! I think Kitty's one of my favourite characters. I hope readers love her as much as I do.


The standard White funeral home website theme offers a modern, high-class design for your funeral home.
Featuring a warm, welcoming message from your staff to your community, this design allows you to showcase your expertise and local presence.
The design can be personalized with your firm's branding and identity.


Sensitivities to a wide variety of scents do vary, and we are often not aware of scents on clothing we are ourselves wearing — remember that these scents can linger on garments. The nature of our sport is that it requires close proximity and contact with others to work well, so please be particularly aware of this if you use scented products, or if you are a smoker. If possible, take the time to change to recently laundered clothes before you come dancing. And remember that good personal and oral hygiene is a simple way to show respect for other dancers.
The Victoria Ballroom Dance Society is a social club — this is one of the considerable benefits we bring to both ballroom instruction and our events. Asking different people to dance is encouraged. Either the gentleman or the lady may ask for a dance. This not only strengthens the social dimensions of the club, by allowing members to meet others (something that is an important part of the mandate and purpose of the Society, and very important in a volunteer-based organization like VBDS), it also increases comfort and confidence in dancing with multiple partners, and for some dancers, affords important opportunity to strengthen Lead or Follow dance skills.
Dance etiquette requires that one should avoid declining a dance under most circumstances. If one does not feel comfortable doing a particular dance, it is a good idea to offer to partner for a subsequent dance in its place. There is no correct way of refusing an invitation on the basis of preferring to dance with someone else. According to tradition, the only graceful way of declining a dance is either (a) you do not know the dance, (b) you need to take a rest, or (c) you have promised the dance to someone else. Also, declining a dance means sitting out the whole song. It is most inconsiderate to dance a song with anyone after you have declined to dance it with someone else. If, on the other hand, someone makes inappropriate advances or remarks, you are within the bounds of etiquette to politely but firmly decline any more dances. All dancers are encouraged to show respect at all time for other dancers.
Please find us on Facebook at Victoria Ballroom Dance Society – Like, Enjoy and Support VBDS with all of your comments, likes and by sharing your favourite pictures with others that have a passion for Ballroom Dancing….This will help to Increase awareness of VBDS in Victoria!!

Implications for Remote Work for Certification Organizations
By the end of March 2020, many employers and businesses in the U.S. made a sudden transition to work-from-home arrangements for all or the vast majority of their employees, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Several months later, some states and localities have eased their mandatory stay-at-home orders, moving into Phase 2 or even Phase 3 of reopening plans. Even so, many organizations are still permitting, encouraging or requiring their employees to continue working from home for the foreseeable future, awaiting the availability of an effective vaccine.
For certification organizations, remote work arrangements pose challenges specific to the credentialing field, in addition to legal and practical issues that other employers are confronting.
Maintaining Security With a Scattered Workforce and Remote Volunteers
For certification organizations that develop and administer secure examinations, maintaining that security is vital to the integrity and validity of examination results. Traditionally, certification examinations are administered under highly secure conditions in test centers. If the exams are administered in paper form, all copies of the exam are collected and either destroyed or returned to restricted locked storage following each administration — and if the exam is computer-based, the test items are retained in secure electronic storage. (Indeed, this expectation is incorporated into the Copyright Office's definition of a secure test.)
In light of the pandemic, some certification organizations are switching to administering remotely proctored test administrations, which has been permitted as a temporary measure by a May 8, 2020 Interim Rule issued by the Copyright Office, under a limited exception for live remote proctoring approved by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA) for its accredited certification programs, and under a similar exception under the ISO/IEC 17024 Standard. These exceptions are limited to remote proctoring that offers assurances of security and integrity substantially equivalent to that provided by in-person proctors.
The focus of these standards has been on the administration of exams to the test-taker — but the security and validity of an examination may also be jeopardized if a certification organization's employees use non-secure methods to access exam forms or test item banks, or by security breaches in the test item or exam form development stage. Employees who have abruptly transitioned to telework, for example, may connect to the certification organization's network without securing their home router, or may inadvertently download malware onto the network. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has published teleworking cybersecurity tips and best practices for federal employees and contractors, which certification organizations would be prudent to adapt for their own workforces.
Certification organizations should also have clear guidelines for employees working from home about whether others may access their work computers, and how any papers containing confidential information must be stored and safeguarded. The certification organization's IT or exam security departments should have individual discussions with each employee who works with sensitive, proprietary information to ensure they have the technological tools, knowledge and equipment needed to work effectively from home and to safeguard test item security.
Similarly, most certification organizations have traditionally held in-person meetings with subject matter experts to develop test items, review exam scores or develop cut score recommendations, in settings in which the certification organization can ensure secure access to that information. If certification organizations are now holding those meetings through virtual interfaces, they should deploy meeting protocols and confidentiality agreements in advance of the meeting. Each subject matter expert should agree to access the virtual interface only through a secure, non-publicly accessible internet connection, and to participate in the meeting in a private location in which discussions cannot be overheard. They should also agree to not make or keep copies of any test items or other confidential information.
Other Legal and Practical Challenges
Like all employers, certification organizations should review their timekeeping practices to ensure that teleworking non-exempt employees are recording all hours worked — even if outside regular business hours — and are paid any required overtime. Employers should also check the legal requirements in their jurisdiction for business expense reimbursements to ensure proper reimbursement of necessary teleworking expenses, especially if the organization is not offering its employees the option to return to the office.
Employees who are working from home may need more flexibility to get their jobs done — or may even need intermittent, reduced schedule or full-time leave from their jobs. With many school systems engaging in remote or hybrid instruction and some child care centers closed, working parents may be unable to commit to completing their work during their regularly scheduled hours or, even with flexible work schedules, may be unable to sustain both their full workloads and their family care and homeschooling obligations. Employees may also have caretaking obligations for parents or other family members. Certification organizations with fewer than 500 employees should ensure that they comply fully with their obligations under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) and check with legal counsel about any applicable state or local mandates.
To avoid discrimination claims, employers should not assume that any employee will be unable to meet work expectations, but rather should invite all employees to discuss any adjustments or accommodations needed during the pandemic. For example, per EEOC guidance, the Americans with Disabilities Act prohibits employers from excluding an employee from the workplace (or furloughing or firing the employee) solely because the employee has a disability placing them at higher risk of severe COVID-19 complications. Even apart from legal compliance concerns, organizations may need to offer flexibility and understanding that goes beyond statutory mandates in order to retain their employees and support employee morale.
These current work arrangements may end with the pandemic — or may prove so successful that they lead to lasting changes for certification organizations' workplace practices.

I do so very much love the Ani DiFranco coming out of my speakers right now. "In or Out" is a song I swear I'd heard before I bought it on iTunes a few weeks ago but I've never been able to figure out where that might have been. I have recollections of first being exposed to Ms. DiFranco's music in the room of Mr. Sean Baptiste, just after the Spring 1997 Student Theater Festival. That was the one where Sean directed Samuel Iscariot and I tried my best to direct Zoo Story. I may be remembering incorrectly.
Regardless of all that it is my job to report the goings-on of my day, not bore you with descriptions of what music I am listening to at the end of a long day. I did the work thing, preceded by the writing thing, and then I went to Stacey's for our annual Bradford yankee swap. (Am I supposed to capitalize Yankee there?) Stacey was there, of course, as were Monica, Kristie, Angela, and all of their various supporting casts (husbands, boyfriends, and children). Stephanie couldn't make it because she had her last class tonight.
I've been feeling sick all day but that didn't really put a damper on the evening. The sore throat and the impending cold/flu/thing seemed to take the night off and I enjoyed myself. We watched Angela's daughter try and sing Christmas karaoke. We exchanged gifts, ate pizza, and played the board game Cranium. It was fun.
Now it's probably time for bed before I pass out at this desk. I hope I don't wake up with as much pain in my throat as I had this morning. That was decidedly unfun.

Not Antler's fault in any way, but just beware it is too wide for this airline. The upside is they may not be in business too much longer!

Waterfronts
How can small cities and towns reconnect with their rivers?
Marielle Segarra, WHYY
The Pennsylvania Environmental Council says the Monongahela Aquatorium, an outdoor auditorium on the Monongahela River, could draw people into the city of Monongahela. (Pennsylvania Environmental Council)
As the industries along urban waterfronts have faded, big cities like Philadelphia and Pittsburgh have come up with robust master plans — and significant funding — to connect people with their rivers.
But what can smaller municipalities with fewer resources do to revitalize their waterfronts?
One approach is to band together with other cities and towns along the river, says Patrick Starr, executive vice president of the Pennsylvania Environmental Council. PEC operates a "River Town Program" to help small municipalities reconnect with their rivers through recreation. The group advises these municipalities on project ideas, funding and marketing.
By working together, the municipalities have a better chance of securing grant funding and getting attention from legislators, says Starr. And a region that gets some buzz will become more attractive to small businesses, which might decide to locate along the river, he said.
Residents and city leaders can also start with low-cost interventions, picking up trash and clearing shrubs that block the river, Starr says. The next step is to expand into bigger projects like planting flowers, installing sculptures and putting up signs that direct people to the river, he says.
The River Town Program advises municipalities located alongside four waterways: the Monongahela River, the Allegheny River, French Creek and the Schuylkill River. Starr says the program has had a lot of success in towns along the Monogahela.
One of the Monongahela River towns, Fredericktown, is located 40 miles south of Pittsburgh. Through the program, Fredericktown has cleared trees, renovated and cleaned up riverfront parks, planted flowers and brought in visitors through events like a kayaking trip down the river, according to Dennis Slagle, president of the Fredericktown Chamber of Commerce. Slagle says local marinas have added boat slips, as well.
As a result of these interventions, he says, the number of campers and boaters has increased and a couple new businesses have opened, including a dollar store that caters to the visitors and a store that rents out kayaks, canoes and standup paddleboards.
Slagle says Fredericktown is in talks with a potential developer for a nearby riverfront brownfield. The community is also hoping to hold events that will bring people to the river during the colder months. (Philadelphia has tried to do the same with a low-cost seasonal park that operates during the winter.)
Fredericktown's projects don't create a lot of jobs but could make people consider visiting the community, Slagle says.
Fredericktown has partnered with several other municipalities that participated in PEC's program to form a separate "River Town Program" focused on the Monongahela River.

Lobet den Herren alle, die ihn ehren ist ein geistliches Morgenlied und eines der bekanntesten deutschen lutherischen Kirchenlieder. Der zehnstrophige Text mit der originalen Anfangszeile Lobet den Herren alle, die ihn fürchten stammt von Paul Gerhardt, die dazu komponierte Melodie von Johann Crüger. Dieser veröffentlichte es erstmals 1653 in der 5. Auflage seines Gesangbuchs Praxis Pietatis Melica. Heute ist es in den meisten deutschsprachigen Kirchengesangbüchern enthalten, darunter im Evangelischen Gesangbuch (Nr. 447) und im katholischen Gotteslob (Nr. 81; ohne Strophen 4, 5 und 9).

Text

Form
Das Gedicht umfasst zehn Strophen zu drei elfsilbigen und einer fünfsilbigen Zeile nach dem im deutschen Humanismus und Barock vielfach nachgeahmten Vorbild der Sapphischen Strophe.

Ungewöhnlich ist das von Gerhardt gewählte Reimschema , das die erste Zeile in zwei Hälften teilt und die kehrversartige Schlusszeile "Lobet den Herren" ohne Reim lässt. Auffallenderweise weicht Gerhardt von diesem Schema in der ersten Strophe ab, in der die Wörter "Herren" und "fürchten" ohne Reim bleiben. Alle neueren Gesangbücher setzen am Schluss der ersten Zeile "ehren" und stellen dadurch die Formanalogie her, allerdings um den Preis einer Tautologie von "loben" und "ehren".

Inhalt
Die regelmäßig wiederkehrende Zeile "Lobet den Herren" entspricht dem biblischen Ruf Halleluja, der zugleich Aufforderung zum Gotteslob und dessen Vollzug ist. Gerhardt macht diesen Ruf zum Morgengebet und motiviert ihn in den Strophen 2–5 mit dem Dank für die Bewahrung vor verschiedenen realen Gefährdungen der Nacht; dahinter mögen auch Erfahrungen aus dem Dreißigjährigen Krieg stehen. Die Strophen 6–9 sind ein Gebet um weiteren Schutz und um Bewahrung auf dem Weg der göttlichen Gebote in Erwartung des Kommens ("deiner Zukunft") und Gerichts Christi. Dieser eschatologische Horizont ist ausdrücklich Inhalt der bekenntnishaften Schlussstrophe.

Wortlaut

Melodie

Johann Crügers  in C-Dur entspricht der positiven und vertrauensvollen Grundstimmung des Textes. Im Wechsel von Vierteln und Halben gleicht sie den schwebenden Rhythmus der Sapphischen Strophe zur geraden Taktart aus.

In Crügers eigenen Ausgaben der Praxis Pietatis Melica ist der Melodie ein bezifferter Bass beigegeben. Sie selbst hat dort durch die tonleiterfremden Leittöne Fis in der ersten und Cis in der zweiten Zeile eine zusätzliche barocke Expressivität; diese sind in der heute gebräuchlichen Fassung getilgt. Ebenfalls getilgt ist – durch Einführung eines Melismas – die Synkope zur A-Moll-Schlusskadenz der dritten Zeile.

I have increased the excerpt length to 10000 but it has not changed it on the front end.
also where does the […] link to once it has cut it off on 30 words?
Excerpt length measured by word not character. Keep excerpt length in between 100. Then, it will work.
At the end you will not get any link. You can use button for the link.
some of my project descriptions are quite long – is there a way this can be fixed?
I have checked it in my site and it is working as I'm giving excerpt length. May be somehow your theme is controlling the excerpt length using any function. Without having look into your admin panel it is difficult to say anything.
Will you be able to help in getting it fixed?
I'm not sure about this! If the problem is due to this plugin, then I can solve it. But, if the problem is due to your theme, then I can't. Cause, for this I need the access in your WP admin panel. There I have to thoroughly check your theme functions, which is time consuming. Currently, I'm very busy with my other works. You better try some other plugins.

Hutton, Ina Ray (1916-1984)
A pioneer in bringing women musicians onto the jazz scene, svelte Ina Ray Hutton, "The Blonde Bombshell of Rhythm," led an all-girl swing band, the Melodears, from 1935-39 and again in a television series in 1956. Although her idea was ahead of its time, when the Melodears opened a set with their theme song, "Gotta Have Your Love," few would dispute critic George Simon's claim that "Without a doubt, the sexiest of all big bandleaders was Ina Ray Hutton."
At age fourteen, Chicago-born Ina Ray, the younger sister of June Hutton (who sang with Tommy Dorsey's Pied Pipers) was already in show business, singing and tap dancing with Gus Edwards's vaudeville revues at the Palace Theater in New York City. Four years later she was in the chorus line of the Ziegfield Follies and George White's Scandals. Her background in dance prepared her for her special style of leading a band, more choreography than conducting.
Changing mind-sets in that era was difficult, and Simon, reviewing an appearance by Hutton's Melodears, wrote: "Only God can make a tree, and only men can play good jazz." Fans of the Melodears praised the band's soloists: Betty Sattley on tenor sax; Alyse Wells, who played several instruments; and Betty Roudebush on piano. Another musician in the band, Ruth Lowe, went on to write two great Frank Sinatra hits: "I'll Never Smile Again" and "Put Your Dreams Away."
After the Melodears folded in 1939, Hutton fronted a band of male musicians in the 1940s, one critic describing her technique as "waving her long baton in a languorous, seductive sort of way." If Hutton's beauty had attracted the crowds, the critic added, good dance music by the band held them there. By 1943, as the band continued to find a wider audience, it took on an international flavor with the addition of the Kim Loo sisters. Stuart Foster was a popular soloist in the band. One of the leading musicians in the band, tenor saxophonist and arranger George Paxton, went on to form his own orchestra in 1944, but his greatest success came in heading one of New York's most successful music publishing businesses as well as being head of a recording company.
In the early 1950s Hutton returned to her original concept, leading a jazz orchestra of female musicians. Aired nationally on NBC beginning in July 1956, her half-hour variety show had no male regulars or guests. The musicians included Mickey Anderson, clarinet; Deedie Ball, piano; Harriet Blackburn and Lois Cronin, trom-bones; Janie Davis, Peggy Fairbanks, and Helen Hammond, trumpets; Evie Howeth and Margaret Rinker, drums; and Helen Smith, Judy Van Ever, Zoe Ann Willey, and Helen Wooley, reed section. The show ended in September 1956.
