Q: about Bijection function let $\mathbf{f}: \mathbf{X} \rightarrow \mathbf{Y}$ be a function and      prove or disprove :
1-if $\forall \mathbf{A}\left(\mathbf{A} \subseteq \mathbf{X} \Rightarrow \mathbf{f}\left(\mathbf{A}^{\mathbf{c}}\right)=\mathbf{f}(\mathbf{A})\right)^{\mathbf{c}}$ then $\mathbf{f}$ is  Bijection.
2- if $\mathbf{f}$ be  Bijection then $\forall \mathbf{A}\left(\mathbf{A} \subseteq \mathbf{X} \Rightarrow \mathbf{f}\left(\mathbf{A}^{\mathbf{c}}\right)=\mathbf{f}(\mathbf{A})\right)^{\mathbf{c}}$.
for "1" consider $X=Y= \mathbb{N}$ and $f(x)=x+1 $ then $\forall \mathbf{A}\left(\mathbf{A} \subseteq \mathbf{X} \Rightarrow \mathbf{f}\left(\mathbf{A}^{\mathbf{c}}\right)=\mathbf{f}(\mathbf{A})\right)^{\mathbf{c}}$ but $\mathbf{f}$ is not  Bijection .

Hot Keyboard Pro is a very useful automatization tool. It allows you to assign keyboard shortcuts to carry out every-day operations without the need of touching your mouse. The application can do a lot of things, ranging from launching applications to pasting different strings of text or even HTML coding into any application.
Hot Keyboard Pro uses a configuration wizard to initially set up the app. During that wizard, you can add a bunch of built-in macros. In my case, the application detected that I had Windows Media Player and Internet explorer shortcuts on my desktop, so it suggested that I give them a keyboard shortcut. I did and the app automatically assigned a combination of keys that I could press at any time to launch those apps. You can of course change the keyboard shortcut to something else, and add new macros that do new tasks. There were over a hundred pre-programmed macros that you can add and that you don't even need to configure.
The application also can function as a password manager, which can paste your passwords onto other applications or websites. It has a master password which is encrypted using 128-bit encryption.
All in all, this is a very complete app, with some interesting extra features. It works well and it is very easy to set up.


Oliver's at the dentist for the first time in a long while—yes, we are bad parents who simply forgot to book an appointment—and this is his first appointment in the dental chair by himself.
So Ethan and I patiently stand by in the waiting room.
Ethan's a little nervous about the sounds he's hearing from Oliver's direction, so he's a little more alert than usual.

The demographics of Mozambique describes the condition and overview of Mozambique's peoples. Demographic topics include basic education, health, and population statistics as well as identified racial and religious affiliations.

Population

According to the 2022 revision of the world factbook the total population was 31,693,239 in 2022. The proportion of children below the age of 14 in 2020 was 45.57%, 51.5% was between 15 and 65 years of age, while 2.93% was 65 years or older. A population census took place in 2017, and the preliminary results indicate a population of 28 861 863 inhabitants.

Population Estimates by Sex and Age Group (01.VII.2020):

Vital statistics
Registration of vital events is in Mozambique not complete. The website Our World in Data  prepared the following estimates based on statistics from the Population Department of the United Nations.

Also, according to a 2011 survey, the total fertility rate was 5.9 children per woman, with 6.6 in rural areas and 4.5 in urban areas.

Ethnic groups
Mozambique's major ethnic groups encompass numerous subgroups with diverse languages, dialects, cultures, and histories. Many are linked to similar ethnic groups living in inland countries.
The estimated 4 million Makua are the largest ethnic group of the country and are dominant in the northern part of the country — the Sena and Shona (mostly Ndau-Shangaan) are prominent in the Zambezi valley, and the Shangaan (Tsonga) dominate in southern Mozambique. Other groups include Makonde, Yao, Swahili, Tonga, Chopi, and Nguni (including Zulu). The country is also home to a growing number of white residents, most with Portuguese ancestry. During colonial rule, European residents hailed from every Mozambican province, and at the time of independence the total population was estimated at around 360,000. Most vacated the region after independence in 1975, emigrating to Portugal as retornados. There is also a larger mestiço minority with mixed African and Portuguese heritage. The remaining non-Blacks in Mozambique are primarily Indian Asiatics, who have arrived from Pakistan, Portuguese India, and numerous Arab countries. There are various estimates for the size of Mozambique's Chinese community, ranging from 1,500 to 12,000 .

Languages

Portuguese is the official and most widely spoken language of the nation, but in 2017 only 47.4% of Mozambique's population speak Portuguese as either their first or second language, and only 16.6% speak Portuguese as their first language. Arabs, Chinese, and Indians speak their own languages (Indians from Portuguese India speak any of the Portuguese Creoles of their origin) aside from Portuguese as their second language. Most educated Mozambicans speak English, which is used in schools and business as second or third language.

Religion

Culture

Despite the influence of Islamic coastal traders and European colonizers, the people of Mozambique have largely retained an indigenous culture based on smallscale agriculture. Mozambique's most highly developed art forms have been wood sculpture, for which the Makonde in northern Mozambique are particularly renowned, and dance. The middle and upper classes continue to be heavily influenced by the Portuguese colonial and linguistic heritage.

Education and health
Under Portugal, educational opportunities for poor Mozambicans were limited; 93% of the Bantu population was illiterate, and many could not speak Portuguese. In fact, most of today's political leaders were educated in missionary schools. After independence, the government placed a high priority on expanding education, which reduced the illiteracy rate to about two-thirds as primary school enrollment increased. Unfortunately, in recent years school construction and teacher training enrollments have not kept up with population increases. With post-war enrollments reaching all-time highs, the quality of education has suffered. As a member of Commonwealth of Nations, most urban Mozambicans are required to learn English starting high-school.

Fill the empty spots in our lives with God. During the time when I was assigned as the high councilman to the Glenwood, Arkansas Branch – a two-hour drive from our home – I was also suffering from sciatica and lower back pain. I would try different postures and periodic stretch breaks but the road trip was always painful – unless I filled the travel time with God. I often took along an audio recording of Believing Christ. I could listen to half on the way to Glenwood and half on the way home. Time and again I anointed the backroads of Arkansas with tears of humble gratitude.
In fact, when I arrived in Glenwood and arose to speak in their sacrament meeting I could hardly contain all the joy that overfilled my soul.

MyFilmClub Study Finds Young People Suffer from Isolation More Than Over 55's
A recent survey of 2040 people conducted by MyFilmClub app (available for free on Google Play and iTunes) on cinema going and loneliness in Britain has found that over 13% of society always feel isolated in their day to day life, with a further 59% saying they often do.
Results generated by Censuswide, on behalf of MyFilmClub, state that 16-24 year olds contributed the most (22%) to this 13% of the British population who always feel isolated on a daily basis. The 25-34 year olds made up the second highest proportion, contributing towards 18% of the overall isolation statistic. Interestingly, only 5% of the over 55s did.
Britain's loneliness epidemic, which until now is primarily seen as an issue for the older generation, is also highlighted in the result that 40% of 16-24 year olds admit to finding that they struggle to find methods of socialising that appeal to them compared top 13% of those aged 55+.
Other interesting findings show almost a quarter of, 23% of respondents, felt that there wasn't enough being done to create environments to cater for the needs of the more introverted members of society.
More than a third of Brits, 36%, said they would actively seek out a community group who have similar interests in order to form new friendship groups, with 50% of the 35-44 age group saying they would do so (compared to just 24% of the over 55s).
The 16-24 age group were proven to be more confident to chat about their own experiences of loneliness and anxiety with people who have suffered similar problems (68%), compared to only 44% of over 55s.
3 in 5 Brits say they are more likely to attend the cinema if they were with friends/a group than if they were alone, with a gender split of women 65% to 54% men.
It is worth noting that although the average cost of a cinema price has gone down from £7.49 (2017) to £7.22 in 2018 (Statista), people are still finding that high prices are determining their choice to stay at home, with 68% choosing instead to watch films at via VOD/subscription platforms from the comfort of their living rooms. A quarter (25%) of respondents say they feel lazier than before, with a further 23% not liking the stress of being around people in a confined environment. To draw people back, off peak pricing and regular discounting tops the list of encouragement (46%) and well as cheaper concessions (36%) and a wider variety of films (26%).
Wez Merchant, creator of MyFilmClub says of the results "Hopefully these results can provide further evidence of the urgent need to generate more community within our society, targeting not just the older generation but the young too. It is great to see they are more aware of themselves however, the stigma of talking issues through is not such a scary prospect to them."
The creators of MyFilmClub app are on a mission to provide a platform that encourages face to face interactions by generating readymade communities of film lovers. The app provides a platform for local people to connect in chat rooms that they have either joined or created, called 'clubs'. Once you have chosen the film you wish to see, geotags pool the nearest cinemas that the film is showing in. Cinema options, film information and ticket purchasing links can be shared with other club members on your group chat. MyFilmClub can even help out the most forgetful among us by sending push notifications to smartphone calendars, making sure users don't miss the titles they are looking forward to seeing.
Within MyFilmClub, cinemas can also create their own clubs, providing customers with news of special screenings as part of their own network of communications. As well as hosting competitions, film reviews and news items, the app is also a purchasing platform for home entertainment releases.
The invaluable benefits of community and belonging to mental health have been proven in a recent survey conducted by The British Journal of Psychiatry. Results state that we are 48% less likely to develop depression if engaged in community activities once a month or more. The NHS is placing similar emphasis on face to face interaction with Social Prescribing, but this initiative is borne predominantly from worry about loneliness in the elderly. Results of this survey beg the question; what are we doing for those who are less likely to visit their GP and shelter themselves behind smartphone screens?
Grainne Peat, Managing Director of the Event Cinema Association (ECA) says "The power that cinema has to provide escapism is a mantra I have always championed. Cinemas continue to adapt their offerings to be as inclusive as possible, so that more individuals can collectively enjoy the magic of the big screen. The survey conducted by MyFilmClub clearly demonstrates the need for communities to proactively reach out to vulnerable and isolated Individuals, encouraging them to engage in local activities, including going to the cinema. The MyFilmClub app provides a great mechanism to connect people and encourage them to go to their local cinema, whether It be on their own (something I often do!) or with others."
Patrick von Sychowski, Editor of cinema industry resource Celluloid Junkie says, "cinemas play an increasingly important role in catering to marginalised and isolated communities, whether special screenings for mothers with babies, films subtitled in immigrants' native languages, subtitled film for hearing impaired, or autism and dementia friendly screenings." He continues, "isolation remains a social stigma, but cinemas can go a long way to help, with statistics in the UK showing growing numbers of people coming to the big screen solo. Any help with this, such as the MyFilmClub app, that can encourage them to do so more often and even connect with others is a win-win-win for individuals, cinemas and society."
Jon Salmon, Mental Health Campaigner and founder co-founder of Byte Entertainment said "Prescribing tablets doesn't always fix the problem. Apps like MyFilmClub allow anyone who is suffering from anxiety or depression to build up the confidence to get out and enjoy a film with others. These statistics demonstrate the overwhelming need for fun social apps that act as springboards out of loneliness."

What Would it Take to Stay in the 1% of Earners Perpetually?
In Canada, the top 1% of earners in 2010 made $201,400. Coming from America with the biased belief that financial systems are structured to keep the rich financially well off, I wondered exactly how much (or little depending on your viewpoint) money it would take to perpetually make the equivalent of $201,400 off of investments.
In other words, how much do you need invested to become a Trust Fund Baby? You would think you could live rather comfortably if you just eked your way into the top 1% of earners in Canada, so it seems like something that would be nice to reach. It would also suggest that if you have more than the amount required you could consider doing what Warren Buffett does and donate more to charity.
It's the top line in the calculator so it's easier to follow.
That means someone who made $201,400 entirely from earned income would bring home $133,315. Yes, this is a gross simplification as there could be stock, bonuses, and various other things not taxed at the same rate as earned income, but this is a blog post I'm writing for fun so I want quick and simple.
Now that we know our goal is to receive $133,315 annually from our investments, we need to know what has to be earned in gross income from our investments. Once again, to keep things simple I'm going to ignore dividends and such and just assume all money is made from selling stock and thus capital gains. According to the Ernst & Young tax calculator we used earlier, the tax rate on capital gains is 21.85% in BC (this is because in Canada the tax rate is applied to 50% of the total capital gains at the highest tax bracket you reached). This means our investments must earn $177,754 to give us $133,315 after taxes.
How much should we expect from our investments? I've heard the rule of thumb that about a 7% return is reasonable to expect. That would mean we need to invest $2,539,343 and make 7% forever. Now obviously the market fluctuates so some years will be good and others will be bad, but amortized over your lifetime it should (hopefully) work out. If you want to be conservative and only assume 5% then you need to invest $3,555,080 which is an increase of $1,015,737 over the 7% goal/hope.
OK, so let's go with the lower number of $2,539,343 with a 7% rate of return to at least make this silly goal seem easier to achieve. How the heck could you end up with that amount invested, starting from scratch? Assuming that 7% is consistent, how much would you need to put away each year at some time frame to reach this lofty goal of never having to work again while still being in the 1%?
Playing with a compound interest calculator it seems you could reach that amount of money in 30 years (which is about how long I have until I should expect to retire at the moment) with a monthly deposit of $2,200 with 7% interest compounded annually. If you push the horizon out to 40 years (more along my wife's timeframe) it drops the monthly investment requirement to $1050/month. Even if $1050/month made up 10% of your monthly net income you would need to bring home $10,500/month net which is $180,000/year gross income.
In other words to make this in any way achievable for the average person to reach in their lifetime they need to be making $180,000/year starting at age 25 in order to simply retire in the top 1%. Obviously most people don't reach that kind of income that early in their lives nor have the discipline to save 10% of their net income every month for 40 years. Obviously your savings rate can grow as you earn more, but still, we are talking amounts of money that most people never reach.
This is why becoming rich enough to live off of your investments is tough. The amounts required, the discipline needed, and over such long time scales are not easy to meet in the slightest. This is why it typically take a bit of luck to reach this level of wealth in the world. Or rich parents.

Romila Thapar (born 30 November 1931) is an Indian historian.  Her principal area of study is ancient India, a field in which she is pre-eminent.   Thapar is a Professor of Ancient History, Emerita, at the Jawaharlal Nehru University in New Delhi.

Thapar's special contribution is the use of social-historical methods to understand change in the mid-first millennium BCE in northern India.  As lineage-based Indo-Aryan pastoral groups moved into the Gangetic Plain, they created rudimentary forms of caste-based states.  The epics Ramayana and the Mahabharata, in her analysis, offer vignettes of how these groups and others negotiated new, more complex, forms of loyalty in which stratification, purity, and exclusion played a greater if still fluid role.

The author of From Lineage to State, Asoka and the Decline of the Mauryas, Early India: From Origins to AD 1300, and the popular History of India, Part I, Thapar has received honorary doctorates from the University of Chicago, the University of Oxford, Institut National des Langues et Civilisations Orientales, Paris, the University of Edinburgh, University of Calcutta, University of Hyderabad, Brown University, and the University of Pretoria.

Thapar is an Honorary Fellow of the School of Oriental and African Studies, London,  where she also received her Ph.D. in 1958, and a  Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.  In 2008, Romila Thapar shared the US Library of Congress's Kluge Prize, for Lifetime Achievement in the Humanities and Social Sciences.

Early life, family and education
Romila is the daughter of Lieutenant-General Daya Ram Thapar, CIE, OBE, who served as the Director-General of the British Indian Armed Forces Medical Services. The late journalist Romesh Thapar was her brother.

As a child, she attended schools in various cities in India depending on her father's military postings. She is an alumna of the St. Mary's School, Pune. Later she attended intermediate of arts at Wadia College, Pune. After graduating from Panjab University in English literature, Thapar obtained a second bachelor's honours degree and a doctorate in Indian history under A. L. Basham from the School of Oriental and African Studies, the University of London in 1958.

Work
She was a reader in Ancient Indian History at Kurukshetra University in 1961 and 1962 and held the same position at Delhi University between 1963 and 1970. Later, she worked as Professor of Ancient Indian History at the Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, where she is now Professor Emerita.

Thapar's major works are Aśoka and the Decline of the Mauryas, Ancient Indian Social History: Some Interpretations, Recent Perspectives of Early Indian History (editor), A History of India Volume One, and Early India: From the Origins to AD 1300.

Her historical work portrays the origins of Hinduism as an evolving interplay between social forces. Her recent work on Somnath examines the evolution of the historiographies about the legendary Gujarat temple.

In her first work, Aśoka and the Decline of the Maurya published in 1961, Thapar situates Ashoka's policy of dhamma in its social and political context, as a non-sectarian civic ethic intended to hold together an empire of diverse ethnicities and cultures. She attributes the decline of the Maurya Empire to its highly centralised administration which called for rulers of exceptional abilities to function well.

Thapar's first volume of A History of India is written for a popular audience and encompasses the period from its early history to the arrival of Europeans in the sixteenth century.

Ancient Indian Social History deals with the period from early times to the end of the first millennium, includes a comparative study of Hindu and Buddhist socio-religious systems, and examines the role of Buddhism in social protest and social mobility in the caste system. From Lineage to State analyses the formation of states in the middle Ganga valley in the first millennium BCE, tracing the process to a change, driven by the use of iron and plough agriculture, from a pastoral and mobile lineage-based society to one of settled peasant holdings, accumulation and increased urbanisation.

Views on revisionist historiography
Thapar is critical of what she calls a "communal interpretation" of Indian history, in which events in the last thousand years are interpreted solely in terms of a notional continual conflict between monolithic Hindu and Muslim communities. Thapar says this communal history is "extremely selective" in choosing facts,  "deliberately partisan" in interpretation and does not follow current methods of analysis using multiple, prioritised causes.

In 2002, the Indian coalition government led by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) changed the school textbooks for social sciences and history, on the ground that certain passages offended the sensibilities of some religious and caste groups. Romila Thapar, who was the author of the textbook on Ancient India for class VI, objected to the changes made without her permission that, for example, deleted passages on eating of beef in ancient times, and the formulation of the caste system. She questioned whether the changes were an, "attempt to replace mainstream history with a Hindutva version of history", with the view to use the resultant controversy as "election propaganda". Other historians and commentators, including Bipan Chandra, Sumit Sarkar, Irfan Habib, R.S. Sharma, Vir Sanghvi, Dileep Padgaonkar and Amartya Sen also protested the changes and published their objections in a compilation titled, Communalisation of Education.

Writing about the 2006 Californian Hindu textbook controversy, Thapar opposed some of the changes that were proposed by Hindu groups to the coverage of Hinduism and Indian history in school textbooks. She contended that while Hindus have a legitimate right to a fair and culturally sensitive representation, some of the proposed changes included material that pushed a political agenda.

Recognition and honours
Thapar has been a visiting professor at Cornell University, the University of Pennsylvania, and the College de France in Paris. She was elected General President of the Indian History Congress in 1983 and a Corresponding Fellow of the British Academy in 1999. She was elected a Member of the American Philosophical Society in 2019.

She was awarded the Jawaharlal Nehru Fellowship in 1976. Thapar is an Honorary Fellow at Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford, and at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London. She holds honorary doctorates from the University of Chicago, the Institut National des Langues et Civilisations Orientales in Paris, the University of Oxford, the University of Edinburgh (2004), the University of Calcutta (2002) and recently (in 2009) from the University of Hyderabad. She was elected a Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2009. She was also elected an Honorary Fellow of St Antony's College, Oxford, in 2017.

In 2004, the US Library of Congress appointed her as the first holder of the Kluge Chair in Countries and Cultures of the South.

In January 2005, she declined the Padma Bhushan awarded by the Indian Government. In a letter to President A P J Abdul Kalam, she said she was "astonished to see her name in the list of awardees because three months ago when I was contacted by the HRD ministry and asked if I would accept an award, I made my position very clear and explained my reason for declining it". Thapar had declined the Padma Bhushan on an earlier occasion, in 1992. To the President, she explained the reason for turning down the award thus: "I only accept awards from academic institutions or those associated with my professional work, and not state awards".

She is co-winner with Peter Brown of the Kluge Prize for the Study of Humanity for 2008 which comes with a 1 million prize.

Q: Firefox doesn't support a long path Firefox does not support a long path.
But in IE code is run smoothly.

This is the path.
If I use a short path then it work in firefox but if I use above path then it didn't show an image.
But it shows an image in IE.
Please give me a suggestion.

A: Try to use relative addressing rather than absolute addressing.
Asuming you have no other choice, use this file:/// in front of the addresses.

A: Full paths (that's what you are calling a long path) should include a protocol: add file:/// to the beginning of the path

A: Referencing an image from a local file
You need to upload your picture from a publically available source (probably the web!)  It looks like you have uploaded it, but you probably should be referencing it relatively, for example something like:

(Modify path as necessary)
Getting mixed up with client/server side
PHP has nothing to do with firefox or internet explorer or any other browser.  It is server side, and you are referncing a client side problem.


Harm Muller Spreer's German team on Platoon scored their first ever win on their new boat when they lead the TP52 World Championship fleet all the way around the two lap first windward leeward race of the regatta.
Racing in a gentle 6 to 8kts Bay of Palma sea breeze Platoon broke the trap fast and well positioned off the pin end, most left boat of the fleet. They gained immediate leverage on Azzurra as the two worked that flank of the course.
Quantum Racing worked well to gain a good third place, gaining nicely on the second beat, just holding off Phoenix which finished fourth.

Updates from Camasca!
By Anisha Watwe, Duke University Class of '21
Since I've been away, a conversation I've had way too frequently with some of my friends and family starts a little like this:
Them: Hey, how's Costa Rica!
Me: Actually, I'm in Honduras.
#InThisEssayIWill
There is a very prevalent perception that all countries south of the U.S. are essentially the same. It's an annoyingly recurring sentiment that we've noticed both in our own interactions with friends and family as well as in the news. People tend to group all of these countries into one giant category as if no matter which country you're in, the experience is the same. Too often we hear statements like, "Mexico is bringing drugs, crime, and rapists." While there is too much in the president's language to be unpacked regarding Central and South American immigrants, his statements speak to two unfortunately common sentiments in the U.S.
The first is that all immigrants entering the country through the southern border are Mexicans, effectively lumping all Central and South American countries into one large, overly-generalized category. In reality, of course, each country (and each region within a given country) could not be more different. Just within cuisine, the enchiladas and tortillas are completely different in Honduras than the ones most people from the U.S. are familiar with. Not to mention language differences and colloquial phrases unique to each country, like saying "vaya pues" or "cheque" instead of "adios" or exclaiming "qué buena onda!" when you think something is cool. Of course, there is a multitude of differences between these countries beyond what I'll be able to observe in just 7 weeks. But, clearly, that knowledge is severely lacking in the political arena as is evident in recent years.
The second sentiment constantly echoed by the president is that all immigrants are inherently criminals and made the extremely simple decision to leave their home countries to terrorize people in the U.S. and take advantage of the welfare system. This not only perpetuates a false association between Latinx communities and violence and crime, but also minimizes the struggles of those who have left behind families, communities, and their cultural roots to seek opportunity in a country who will ultimately reject and imprison them.
My research project this summer involves conducting oral surveys to investigate the barriers to contraceptive use for women in Camasca, Honduras. The issue of immigration has come up far more often during the surveys than I expected. If women tell me they don't use contraceptives, I follow up and ask why. Often, women who have a partner will respond by saying that their partner is away or gone. I didn't realize that this could be a result of immigration until I had a conversation with a doctor at Camasca's maternal health clinic.
She told me that single motherhood in Camasca is very common because often, men will have children and then leave the country (often for the U.S.) to find work. This, she said, is a result of both the prevalent "machismo" sentiment within the town and the poor job prospects. On top of that, initiatives by President Juan Orlando Hernández (an autocrat backed by the U.S.) to privatize education and health care have lowered public access to both of these services. This has contributed to the lower standard of living in the country and subsequently, the increase in immigration. The most frustrating part of this is that Trump froze aid to Honduras in April of this year over its failure to curb migration to the U.S., though this a situation he is actively contributing to by propping up the autocratic president who vowed to help the U.S. with counternarcotics.
It makes me ashamed that some of my friends couldn't even tell me where Honduras is. It makes me ashamed that some 16-year old students in Camasca know more about U.S. immigration policies than most people in the U.S. do. It makes me ashamed that our own president doesn't understand the effect that his decisions have on people apart from his own country. And I REALLY hope that changes soon.

LumApps had a massive presence at Google NEXT '18 last week.
Here's what happened over three intense days at our biggest event of the year.
Our team started July 23 at the Partners Summit – a great opportunity to touch base with our peers and start off the week right.
On July 24, our team got ready for the crowds expected at NEXT '18. Expectations are high this time around, since in 2017 LumApps was a overachieving Google partner, bringing home an Innovation Award of the Year.
You could find our friendly LumAppsers in yellow shirts at booth W1309 – which was almost never empty!
Brent and Mary from our team took the stage at 4:35 pm to present LumApps to a host of new professionals. We hope you enjoyed our LumApps breakout session, Engage All of Your Employees in LumApps, the Social Intranet Recommended for G Suite, which saw around 65 participants!
Then our LumApps team prepared for the joint Happy Hour that night with Maven Wave, AO Docs, BetterCloud and Cloudbakers. Without pictured proof, you can rest assured that it was a success!
Our big event that day was a 1-hour session at 1:55 pm focusing on Digital transformation in Retail: How Finish Line Successfully Leverages Google Cloud and LumApps' Corporate Portal Solution. Kaily Baskett from our Austin team joined Thorsten Luedecke from Google and Warren Lenard from Finish Line.
Attendees thoroughly enjoyed this engaging customer experience. We're not surprised, since Finish Line is one of our best Retail stories! To share in the buzz, check out their customer page, or watch the whole session here.
We closed the day with a Lightning Talk around our solution, some key uses cases and how we leverage Google technologies, etc. Shorter than a session and with a smaller audience, this intimate setting allows for an effective Q&A and a chance to connect with attendees in a more informal way.
The last day was not our lightest. We officially announced one of our most important integrations to date: Google Cloud Search. Our CTO Elie Mélois took the stage at 11:40 am, joining a big cast -including Jayanth Mysore from Google Cloud – in the session: Google Cloud Search: A Fully Managed Secure Enterprise Search Platform from Google.
As NEXT was closing, we still enjoyed a full booth until the last minutes! What a rewarding experience. Our LumApps team will see you next year!

Microfinance: Band-Aid on a fatal wound?
The setting up of the Rs 100 crore "India Microfinance Equity Fund" with SIDBI announced by finance minister Pranab Mukerjee in his budget speech has been welcomed by the Indian microfinance industry.
"While the amount may be small and should ideally have been around Rs 1,000 crore, we have to see this as a good beginning and perhaps given the size of the fund, the immediate beneficiaries may be the small and medium MFIs,'' says Vijayalakshmi Das, chief executive officer, Ananya Finance for Inclusive Growth and former CEO of Friends of Women's World Banking in India, which had played an important role by extending support in their initial years to some of the biggest names in Indian microfinance sector like SKS Microfinance and Spandana.
The finance minister also said a Women's Self Help Group (SHG) Development Fund is also to be created with a corpus of Rs 500 crore. A lot depends on how this fund is used, says Das. If it is meant to support capacity building for these SHG women then it would be a good initiative.
Also, despite the industry's stated hopes, the finance minister maintained his silence regarding the MFI's grant to banking licenses. Perhaps, with good reason.

13. December 2018 Fair Trade
© Marina Lutz
'fair': We have had enough – we still have nowhere near enough!
Claiming that a product is 'fair' is problematic, as it means a standstill. Ursula Brunner, founding banana worker, said: "There is no such thing as a fair product; fair trade is a process." And this is how gebana has always seen its work: Step by step, we are constantly looking for a better deal for farmers, workers and the environment. But who decides what's fair? Just because we try and make trade fair; that doesn't mean we are anywhere near to having a fair product!
Nevertheless we use the word 'fair' when we talk about our products. The concept of fair trade has become widely known in the last 20 years, and people associate with one word the concept that we also support: better prices for farmers and decent wages for workers. But also above all a vision of better trade, which brings growth to poor regions and creates a fairer world.
But creating a fairer world has increasingly less to do with 'fair' products. Products commended as 'fair' are certainly fairer than unfair ones – and that's good. And there are also actors wanting to move further and who are following a holistic vision. But the market is increasingly dominated by multinational corporations. They have 'fair' products in their ranges – with the sole aim of improving their margins and maximising profits. It's about marketing, while the company's trade policy doesn't change one iota.
These companies adopt a short-term view, they constantly exert pressure on prices, are not transparent and push the fair trade standards down to the minimum. Yet, even when they observe the most basic rules, their purely profit-driven behaviour as a distributor and their overall company policy is destroying sustainable and fair value chains, rather than building them. This runs completely contrary to the growth approach adopted by fair trade. It leads to less fairness rather than more.
We wish to distance ourselves from this explicitly. As a result, we have decided to no longer label our products 'fair'.
However, removing the word 'fair' from our products does not mean that our commitment to fair trade is decreasing. We will continue to invest in the local value chains, even in high-risk regions. We will continue to create as many good jobs as possible. We are training organic farmers and promote organic cultivation. We continue to work on the sustainability of the entire value chain and we remain long-term partners with courage and staying power.
And we want more! In future we will be focussing more intensely on holistic impact and growth locally, we will ensure growers receive a share of the sales, dividing profits with staff and customers and ensuring that value chains are more deliberately geared towards the environment. And we will become more heavily involved in the discussion around trade policy. Trade as a whole must become fairer!
Together we are changing international trade
for the benefit of family farmers,
the local economy
and the environment.

STRIDE Program 2022-2023 Academic Year
STRIDE Pre-Orientation for Fall 2022 will be held in person and will take place on the Davidson College campus, on Monday, August 15 through Wednesday, August 17, 2022.
We are now accepting sign-ups for new students. Students who successfully sign-up for the program will get permission to move into their Fall housing assignments on Monday, August 15. Space is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Once capacity is reached, sign-ups will close. If you have questions or concerns about the STRIDE Pre-Orientation Experience, please contact cdi@davidson.edu.
Register for STRIDE Pre-Orientation
Students Together Reaching for Individual Development and Education (STRIDE) is a program that provides direct support to first-year and transfer students of color so that they can not only successfully complete their first academic year of college but ultimately thrive towards successful graduation from Davidson College. Through inclusive dialogues, events and relationship building with Davidson students, staff and faculty, this program attempts to minimize institutional challenges students of color may have at a predominantly white college. STRIDE is historically beneficial to students of color who may also identify as first-generation and/or hold undocumented immigration status. Specifically, STRIDE offers student-led events and connects incoming students to resources to successfully navigate academic and campus life. There are two distinct yet related components of the STRIDE Program: The Pre-Orientation Experience and The Academic Year Peer Leadership Experience.
STRIDE Pre-Orientation Experience
First-year students of color are invited to register for the STRIDE Pre-Orientation Experience which takes place before New Student Orientation. The Pre-Orientation Experience strives to be an inclusive opportunity for first-year and transfer students of color and their families to build relationships with Davidson College students, faculty and staff while also engaging with vital campus resources that will support their transition to college.
The STRIDE Pre-Orientation Experience, facilitated by the STRIDE Director and a Davidson College alumni, allows students to participate in experiential activities and dialogues to help them establish a foundation towards academic and social success on campus. Students are assigned to small group cohorts lead by student peer leaders that offer them direct support and encouragement throughout the retreat.
Sample Activities
Meet the College President and Deans
Making Connections: Small and Large Group Team Builders
Faculty of Color of Panel
Academic Success Tips and Resources
Navigating Stress Triggers and Self-Care
Exploring Student Organizations at Davidson
Real Talk: Navigating Campus as a Student of Color
Virtual Movie Night, Game Night and Craft Night
While the program is offered at no additional cost to students, registration is required and space is limited.
Please email cdi@davidson.edu to subscribe to the Center for Diversity and Inclusion newsletter to learn about for peer support opportunities throughout the academic year.
Academic Year STRIDE Peer Leadership Experience
Recognizing incoming students may need support beyond a few days prior to New Student Orientation, STRIDE also provides an academic year peer leadership experience. First-year students complete a questionnaire at the beginning of the semester where the information provided helps the formation of small group cohorts. Cohorts are based on shared interests (i.e. academic majors, wellness activities, social identities, etc.) and led by student peer leaders who are sophomores, juniors or seniors. Students meet with cohort members and their peer leader at a social event and have an opportunity to learn about other cohort groups. While cohorts are meant to be sustained groups throughout the academic year, peer leaders are are encouraged to collaborate with other peer leaders to build relationships across cohorts.
The fall semester begins with a weekly seminar in September to build academic success skills and introduce students to co-curricular opportunities on campus. Between October and April, peer leaders host large and small group events that range from faculty dialogues, campus resource conversations, community building opportunities, exploration of the Charlotte area and dialogue on current issues impacting first-year students. The spring semester includes a mid-year event to reunite the group and check in about successes and setbacks. The year concludes with an informal recognition event to celebrate the completion of the first-year and to thank peer leaders for their efforts.
Participants of the STRIDE Pre-Orientation Experience have an opportunity to join in the Academic Year STRIDE Peer Leadership Experience at the conclusion of Pre-Orientation. Students who did not participate in STRIDE Pre-Orientation Experience may join the Academic Year STRIDE Peer Leadership Experience pending space availability. Registration for this program will be announced in after STRIDE Pre-Orientation Experience.
For more information about STRIDE, please email cdi@davidson.edu.
You Are Not A Stranger Here (YANASH)
YANASH is a confidential student group created by students for any and every Davidson College student to seek queer community without the pressures and fears of coming out. The organization fosters an inclusive environment for attendees to seek information about queer identities, gender identities and sexualities in group and peer support networks. For more information, please email yanash@davidson.edu.
Queer Mentorship Program
The Queer Mentorship Program pairs incoming first-year and transfer students with queer sophomore, junior or senior Davidson College students. The program recognizes that the transition to college is a hard time, especially so for queer and/or questioning first-year students. The organization hopes that a mentor can help assist and guide students through their acclimation to Davidson College and create a more welcoming community at Davidson College. For more information, please email YANASH@davidson.edu.
Undocumented Student Community Dinners
Several times per semester, the Center for Diversity and Inclusion and the Dean of Students Office host dinners for undocumented students. The goal of these events is to facilitate community building among undocumented students and to connect them to campus and local resources. For more information, please email cdi@davidson.edu.
Through the Student Activities Office, Davidson has more than 200 student organizations on campus. Students have created a range of student organizations that address culture, diversity, gender and sexuality topics.
Affinity Organizations
Gender & Sexuality Organizations

(CNBNewsnet)(May 23, 2018)--While most teenagers are interested in the latest party fashions or other youthful activities, a teenager from South Jersey is making an impact on peoples lives by becoming obsessed with genealogy.
Teenager Eric Schubert started dabbling in genealogy when he was just 9 or so, quickly learning he was naturally skilled in the art of find family members. Now in High School, Eric has over a thousand cases completed as well as the usual course load a student can expect.
Starting his business two years ago, ES Genealogy, from a desk in his bedroom, Eric has managed to make an amazing impact on hundreds of peoples lives. He has all he needs right in his room to do his investigations, hunting official documents and records to finish unsolved puzzles.
Eric has spent some time investigating his own genealogy, tracking his paternal grandmothers birth father, and confirming the relationship via a DNA test. This expanded his own family tree to dozens of new family members.
When asked about his favourite cases, Eric has said that the case of Kate DeSantis is his most memorable, unlocking an old family mystery for Ms DeSantis. Ms DeSantis always knew she was adopted but had not been able to contact her birth mother.
New Jersey had only opened the adoption records in January 2017, so Eric using only the birth name supplied managed to recreate Ms DeSantis' entire family tree. The family tree revealed had a lot more branches than expected, with Eric uncovering an additional 4 siblings for Ms DeSantis, who was prior to this an only child.
Eric has said that the most rewarding part of genealogy is the end results, of being able to see the reaction of people meeting long lost or unknown family members for the first time. He was luck enough to be there when Ms DeSantis facetimed one of her siblings for the first time. An emotional family reunion between two sisters, who share an obvious resemblance, is a huge reward for Eric.
Ms DeSantis has said that it feels like a Hallmark movie, with nothing but happy endings, and is excited for the future and getting to share it with her new family members. She has already formed a quick bond with her sister, talking as if they have known each other their whole lives.
And all these good feelings are due to a young man with an interest in family history and helping others connect. Ms DeSantis intends to visit with her new family soon and take them around her favorite sights, like Zahav, but maybe she should check out a casino no deposit online game or two for fun.
