A guide to a PRSA.
Planning to have sufficient income when we retire is a concern for the majority of us.
At Integrated Financial Services we offer a wide range of services on retirement.The current Old Age Pension which will kick in for some at age 65, others 66 and for those who are under 50, it may not be until age 68. The current Old Age Pension is in the region of €230/week and this is an entitlement for the majority of people who qualify.
The worry is that because the OAP is funded from current state income (there is no fund as such) that the state may not be able to pay these pensions in the future.
On the assumption that people are entitled and will receive a base line pension (€230/week) the issue then is whether this is sufficient to live on.
Putting a plan in place may entail using some or all of the above menu and as pension advisers we can put the structures in place to ensure you meet your goal (whatever that may be).

Sistema Internacional de Unidades (sigla SI, do francês {{lang|fr|Système International d'unités}}) é a forma moderna do sistema métrico e é geralmente um sistema de unidades de medida concebido em torno de sete unidades básicas e da conveniência do número dez. É o sistema de medição mais usado do mundo, tanto no comércio todos os dias e na ciência. O SI é um conjunto sistematizado e padronizado de definições para unidades de medida, utilizado em quase todo o mundo moderno, que visa a uniformizar e facilitar as medições e as relações internacionais daí decorrentes.

O antigo sistema métrico incluía vários grupos de unidades. O SI foi desenvolvido em 1960 do antigo sistema metro-quilograma-segundo, ao invés do sistema centímetro-grama-segundo, que, por sua vez, teve algumas variações. Visto que o SI não é estático, as unidades são criadas e as definições são modificadas por meio de acordos internacionais entre as muitas nações conforme a tecnologia de medição avança e a precisão das medições aumenta.

O sistema tem sido quase universalmente adotado. As três principais exceções são a Myanmar, a Libéria e os Estados Unidos. O Reino Unido adotou oficialmente o Sistema Internacional de Unidades, mas não com a intenção de substituir totalmente as medidas habituais.

Considera-se que a primeira ideia de um sistema métrico seja do filósofo John Wilkins, primeiro secretário da Royal Society de Londres em 1668. Porém não teve sucesso, sendo na França onde o sistema unificado realmente saiu do papel. Em 1875, o tratado internacional Convenção do Metro (do francês Convention du Mètre) foi assinado por vários países, para estabelecer organizações responsáveis por um sistema uniforme de medidas. Que em 1889, definiram os protótipos internacionais de metro e quilograma na Primeira Conferência Geral de Pesos e Medidas.

Existem grandezas que não apresentam unidades de medida, resultados da divisão entre grandezas iguais. Existem outras não derivadas das básicas, como por exemplo o número de moléculas de uma substância determinadas por contagem.

História
Para efetuar medidas é necessário fazer uma padronização, escolhendo unidades para cada grandeza. Antes da instituição do Sistema Métrico Decimal, as unidades de medida eram definidas de maneira arbitrária, variando de um país para outro, dificultando as transações comerciais e o intercâmbio científico entre eles. As unidades de comprimento, por exemplo, eram quase sempre derivadas das partes do corpo do rei de cada país: a jarda, o pé, a polegada e outras. Até hoje, estas unidades são usadas nos Estados Unidos, embora definidas de uma maneira menos individual, mas através de padrões restritos às dimensões do meio em que vivem e não mais as variáveis desses indivíduos.

Em 1585, o matemático flamengo Simon Stevin publicou um pequeno panfleto chamado La Thiende, no qual ele apresentou uma conta elementar e completa de frações decimais e sua utilização diária. Embora ele não tenha inventado as frações decimais e sua notação, ele estabeleceu seu uso na matemática do dia-a-dia. Ele declarou que a introdução universal da cunhagem decimal, medidas e pesos seria apenas uma questão de tempo. No mesmo ano, ele escreveu La Disme sobre o mesmo assunto.

Há registros de que a primeira ideia de um sistema métrico seja de John Wilkins, primeiro secretário da Royal Society de Londres em 1668, porém a ideia não vingou e a Inglaterra continuou com os diferentes sistemas de pesos e medidas.

Foi na França onde a ideia de um sistema unificado saiu do papel. A proliferação dos diferentes sistemas de medidas foi uma das causas mais frequentes de litígios entre comerciantes, cidadãos e cobradores de impostos. Com o país unificado com uma moeda única e um mercado nacional havia um forte incentivo econômico para romper com essa situação e padronizar um sistema de medidas. O problema inconsistente não era as diferentes unidades, mas os diferentes tamanhos das unidades. Ao invés de simplesmente padronizar o tamanho das unidades existentes, os líderes da Assembleia Nacional Constituinte Francesa decidiram que um sistema completamente novo deveria ser adotado.

O Governo Francês fez um pedido à Academia Francesa de Ciências para que criasse um sistema de medidas baseadas em uma constante não arbitrária. Após esse pedido, um grupo de investigadores franceses, composto de físicos, astrônomos e agrimensores, deu início a esta tarefa, definindo assim que a unidade de comprimento metro deveria corresponder a uma determinada fração da circunferência da Terra e correspondente também a um intervalo de graus do meridiano terrestre. Em 22 de junho de 1799 foi depositado, nos Arquivos da República em Paris, dois protótipos de platina iridiada, que representam o metro e o quilograma, ainda hoje conservados no Escritório Internacional de Pesos e Medidas (Bureau international des poids et mesures) na França.

Em 20 de maio de 1875 um tratado internacional conhecido como Convention du Mètre (Convenção do Metro), foi assinado por 17 Estados. Este tratado estabeleceu as seguintes organizações para conduzir as atividades internacionais em matéria de um sistema uniforme de medidas:

 Conférence Générale des Poids et mesures (CGPM), uma conferência intergovernamental de delegados oficiais dos países membros e da autoridade suprema para todas as ações;
 Comité international des poids et mesures (CIPM), composta por cientistas e metrologistas, que prepara e executa as decisões da CGPM e é responsável pela supervisão do Bureau Internacional de Pesos e Medidas;
 Bureau International des Poids et mesures (BIPM), um laboratório permanente e centro mundial da metrologia científica, as atividades que incluem o estabelecimento de normas de base e as escalas das quantidades de capital físico e manutenção dos padrões protótipo internacional.

Em 1889, a Primeira Conferência Geral de Pesos e Medidas (I CGPM) definiu os protótipos internacionais de metro e quilograma e as próximas conferências definiram as demais unidades que hoje são as bases do SI. A partir da criação destas organizações todo e qualquer assunto relacionado a medição são de sua responsabilidade. Mais tarde, a CGPM estabeleceu que o sistema métrico internacional seria designado Sistema Internacional, com abreviatura SI em todos os idiomas. O SI foi adotado globalmente por praticamente todos os países. As três exceções são Myanmar, Libéria e os Estados Unidos. Com o passar do tempo outras unidades foram adicionadas ao SI nas posteriores CGPMs: ampère (corrente elétrica) em 1946, kelvin (temperatura absoluta) e candela (luminosidade) em 1954 e mol (quantidade de matéria) em 1971.

Em 1955, foi criada a Organização Internacional de Metrologia Legal (OIML), que harmoniza internacionalmente as legislações dos países em relação às unidades de medida.

Em 1960, o "Sistema Métrico Decimal" foi substituído pelo "Sistema Internacional de Unidades" (SI), mais sofisticado que o anterior, criado na 11ª Conferência Geral de Pesos e Medidas (CGPM), na tentativa de padronizar as unidades de medida, com objetivo de facilitar seu uso tornando acessíveis. A 11ª CGPM define um grupo de sete grandezas independentes denominadas de "Grandezas de Base", que a partir dessas, as demais grandezas são definidas, denominadas "Grandezas Derivadas".

Em novembro de 2018, durante a 26ª reunião da Conferência Geral de Pesos e Medidas (CGPM), a Metrologia deu um passo histórico, pois o Escritório Internacional de Pesos e Medidas (BIPM) revisou as definições para o quilograma, ampère, kelvin e mol. Essa revisão se tornou efetiva a partir de 20 de maio de 2019.

Redefinição do SI
No sistema em vigor até 19 maio de 2019, os valores das constantes fundamentais eram determinados a partir de experimentos. O quilograma era definido a partir de um protótipo internacional, um cilindro formado por liga de platina e irídio e, essa era a unidade utilizada para determinar a massa de um próton, de um elétron ou de outras partículas elementares. Isso levava à situação notável de que os valores das constantes fundamentais estavam em um estado permanente de mudança, já que nossas capacidades de medição eram refletidas nesses valores. A cada quatro anos, por exemplo, um novo valor numérico era atribuído à carga de um elétron; a carga em si não mudava, a mudança ocorria em nossa capacidade de medir, portanto, nossa compreensão do mundo.

Em nosso mundo de alta tecnologia, no qual o nanômetro há muito tempo se tornou comum, qualquer mudança de tamanho em um protótipo têm um impacto significativo na definição de uma unidade e, portanto, deve ser evitada. A menor variação na temperatura leva a uma mudança no comprimento do protótipo, e os resultados ficariam ainda piores caso o protótipo fosse danificado. A solução para esse problema é evitar o uso de uma medida material, como um protótipo, para definir uma unidade e buscar uma constante fundamental. As constantes fundamentais são propriedades físicas invariantes, como a velocidade da luz ou a carga de um elétron.

Veja como eram e como ficaram as unidades de base do SI, após a redefinição.

Unidades do SI

Básicas

Definiram-se sete grandezas físicas postas como básicas ou fundamentais, passando a existir sete unidades básicas correspondentes — as unidades bases do SI dimensionalmente axiomáticas e independentes entre si — descritas na tabela. A partir delas, derivam todas as outras unidades existentes. As unidades bases são (m, kg, s, A, K, mol, cd):

Derivadas
Consideram-se unidades derivadas do SI apenas aquelas que podem ser expressas através das unidades básicas do SI e sinais de multiplicação e divisão. Desse modo, há apenas uma unidade do SI para cada grandeza. Contudo, para cada unidade do SI pode haver várias grandezas. Às vezes, dão-se nome especial e símbolo particular às unidades derivadas (rad, sr, kat, Bq, F, C, S, Gy, Sv, J, lm, Wb, N, Hz, H, T, lx, W, Pa, omega, ºC, V):

Até 1995, havia duas unidades suplementares: o radiano e o esferorradiano (esterradiano, em Portugal). Uma resolução da CGPM (Conferência Geral de Pesos e Medidas) de então tornou-as derivadas.

É fácil de perceber que, em tese, são possíveis incontáveis (por extensão, "infinitas") unidades derivadas do SI (por exemplo; m², m³, etc.), tantas quantas se possam imaginar com base nos princípios constitutivos fundamentais. As tabelas que se seguem não pretendem ser uma lista exaustiva. São, tão somente, uma apresentação organizada, tabelada, das unidades do SI das principais grandezas, acompanhadas dos respectivos nomes e símbolos. Na primeira tabela, unidades que não fazem uso das unidades com nomes especiais:

Na segunda tabela, as que fazem uso na sua definição das unidades com nomes especiais.

Adimensional
Existem grandezas que não apresentam unidades de medida, as Grandeza Adimensional, pois são resultados da divisão entre duas grandezas iguais, como por exemplo o índice de refração, razão entre duas velocidades.

De contagem
Também existem grandezas que não são derivadas das Grandezas de Base, como por exemplo o número de moléculas de uma substância que são determinadas por meio de contagem, sendo assim chamadas Grandezas de Contagem.

Unidades aceites pelo SI
O SI aceita várias unidades que não pertencem ao sistema. As primeiras unidades deste tipo são unidades muito utilizadas no cotidiano:

A relação entre o neper  e o bel é: 1 B = 0,5 ln(10) Np. Outras unidades também são aceites pelo SI, mas possuem uma relação com as unidades do SI determinada apenas por experimentos:

Por fim, tem-se unidades que são aceites temporariamente pelo SI. Seu uso é desaconselhado.

Prefixos oficiais
Os prefixos do SI permitem escrever quantidades sem o uso da notação científica, de maneira mais clara para quem trabalha em uma determinada faixa de valores. Os prefixos oficiais são:

Para utilizá-los, basta juntar o prefixo aportuguesado e o nome da unidade, sem mudar a acentuação, como em nanossegundo, microssegundo, miliampere e deciwatt. Para formar o símbolo, basta juntar os símbolos básicos: nm, µm, mA e dW.

Exceções
 Unidades segundo e radiano: é necessário dobrar o r e o s. Exemplos: milissegundo, decirradiano, etc.
 Especiais: múltiplos e submúltiplos do metro: quilômetro (quilómetro), hectômetro (hectómetro), decâmetro, decímetro, centímetro e milímetro; também nanômetro (nanómetro), picômetro (picómetro) etc.
Observações
 O k usado em "quilo", em unidades como quilômetro (km) e quilograma (kg), deve ser grafado em letra minúscula. É errado escrevê-lo em maiúscula.
 Em informática, os símbolos "K", "M", "G" que podem preceder as unidades bits e bytes, provavelmente não se referem ao fator multiplicativo 1000, mas sim a 1024 unidades da grandeza citada (para correção a IEC definiu o chamado prefixo binário onde 1:1024 e o uso dos prefixos da SI passaram a valer 1:1000). O uso desses prefixos se trata na verdade de uma incorreção, já que os prefixos corretos seriam "Ki", "Mi", "Gi" (kibibyte, mebibyte, gibibyte, etc.), conforme a tabela oficial.
 Em unidades como km² e km³ é comum ocorrerem erros de conversão. 1 km² = 1 000 000 m², porque 1 km × 1 km = 1 km², 1 km = 1000 m, 1000 m × 1000 m = 1 000 000 m². Para fazer conversões nesses casos, devem-se colocar mais dígitos por casa numérica: em metros, cada casa tem um dígito (exemplo: 1 0 0 0 m = 1 km); em metros quadrados (2), cada casa numérica tem dois dígitos (exemplo: 1000 m × 1000 m = 01 00 00 00 m² = 1 km²); em metros cúbicos (3), cada casa numérica tem três dígitos (exemplo: 1000 m × 1000 m × 1000 m = 001 000 000 000 m³ = 1 km³).

Escrita correta de unidades SI

Nome de unidade
O nome das unidades deve ser sempre escrito em letra minúscula.

Exemplos:
 Correto: quilograma, newton, metro cúbico.
 Exceção: quando o nome estiver no início da frase e em "grau Celsius".

Somente o nome da unidade aceita o plural
É importante saber que somente o nome da unidade de medida aceita o plural. As regras para a formação do plural (no Brasil) para o nome das unidades de medida seguem a Resolução Conmetro 12/88, conforme ilustrado abaixo:

Para a pronúncia correta do nome das unidades, deve-se utilizar o acento tônico sobre a unidade e não sobre o prefixo.

 Exemplos: micrometro, hectolitro, milissegundo, centigrama, nanometro.
 Exceções: quilômetro, hectômetro, decâmetro, decímetro, centímetro e milímetro

Ao escrever uma unidade composta, não se deve misturar o nome com o símbolo da unidade.

Símbolo de unidade
As unidades do SI podem ser escritas por seus nomes ou representadas por meio de símbolos.

Símbolo não é abreviatura
Símbolo não é abreviatura. É um sinal convencional e invariável utilizado para facilitar e universalizar a escrita e a leitura de significados — no caso, as unidades SI; logo, jamais deverá ser seguido de "ponto".

Símbolo não admite plural
Símbolo não admite plural. Como sinal convencional e invariável que é, utilizado para facilitar e universalizar a escrita e a leitura de significados, nunca será seguido de "s".

Representação
O resultado de uma medição deve ser representado com o valor numérico da medida, seguido de um espaço de até um caractere e, em seguida, o símbolo da unidade em questão.

Exemplo:

Para a unidade de temperatura grau Celsius, haverá um espaço de até um caractere entre o valor e a unidade, porém não se porá espaço entre o símbolo do grau e a letra C para formar a unidade "grau Celsius".

Exemplo:

Os símbolos das unidades de tempo hora (h), minuto (min) e segundo (s) são escritas com um espaço entre o valor medido e o símbolo. Também há um espaço entre o símbolo da unidade de tempo e o valor numérico seguinte.

Exemplo:

Exceções
 Para os símbolo da unidade de ângulo plano grau (°), minuto (′) e segundo (″), não deve haver espaço entre o valor medido e as unidades, porém, deve haver um espaço entre o símbolo da unidade e o próximo valor numérico.

Comércio internacional
Um dos objetivos da União Europeia (UE) é a criação de um mercado único para o comércio. Para atingir este objetivo, a UE estabeleceu como padrão o uso do SI como unidades legais de medida. A partir de 2009, foram emitidas duas diretivas de unidades de medida que catalogaram as unidades de medida que podem ser usadas para, dentre outras coisas, o comércio: a primeira foi a Diretiva 71/354/CEE publicada em 1971, que exigia dos estados-membros que padronizassem no SI, em vez de utilizar a variações dos sistemas CGS e MKS então em uso. A segunda foi a Diretiva 80/181/CEE publicada em 1979, que substituiu a primeira e deu ao Reino Unido e à República da Irlanda um número de derrogações à diretiva original.

Q: How do you handle sockets when you have multiple servers Trying to figure out how to set up sockets with multiple different api servers.
I have 1 api server running on nodejs (v14) currently, which a client can connect to via a socket. I'm adding multiple servers (for now 2, maybe more later). If I add another how will sockets stay synchronized?
i.e. User A connects to Server 1 via socket. User B connects to Server 2 via socket. User A triggers an update event, Server 1 updates all clients. How does Server 1 notify Server 2 to update to all clients?

A: one word make a custom load balancer to distribute incoming socket connection among your servers. You to answer the second part of your question you can solve it by a Pub/sub . It's a messaging pattern where different components publish and subscribe to each other to notify and send data to each other. Just make all the servers a subscriber then if one server publish then all the servers get a notification. cheers.

"Thinking as a Process", embodies the way in which Kepner-Tregoe (KT) views organizational development. Problem solving should not be a spontaneous, unfocused series of actions to try to fix a problem. Similarly, projects should be prioritized based on their alignment with an organization's business strategy. KT thinking processes advocate a focused, consistent method of KT Clear Thinking, root cause analysis, and situation appraisal processes to quickly isolate the problem to find a solution. KT's Clear Thinking processes ensure strategic alignment with the organization's goals, guide project management, and encourage team collaboration.
An integral part of the KT Clear Thinking methodology is prioritization and accurate assessment of operations and processes. Thinking as a Process is having a systematic framework of analysis that gives executives and managers the tools and confidence to perform brilliantly under pressure. Ultimately, Thinking as a Process focuses on building organizational capability to resolve complex business problems fast and foster growth.
Are you ready to begin Thinking as a Process instead of relying on guesswork and luck?

Ayahuasca Therapy Shown to Help People Suffering from Substance Abuse
Posted by Wesley Thoricatha | Sep 28, 2015 | Articles, Ayahuasca | 0
Ayahuasca can provide relief for people suffering from addiction.
Image source: Wikimedia Commons user Terpsichore
"I struggled with my addiction—crack cocaine—for many years… [The retreat] helped me release the hurt and pain that I was carrying around…ever since, I've been clean and sober. My family is back in my life, my daughter is back at home, and we're getting closer and closer every day." – A subject of the recent ayahuasca-assisted therapy study.
The psychedelic brew ayahuasca has gained popularity throughout the world in recent years due to its powerful visionary effects on the people who consume it. Many people who participate in an ayahuasca ceremony report amazing visions, deep self-reflection, and communication with the spirits of plants, animals, and the earth itself. People often say that their ayahuasca experience inexorably changes their lives in deep, positive, and lasting ways. Inspired by these reports, researchers have begun to collect data and perform studies to see if the life-changing properties of ayahuasca can be scientifically verified and used in a therapeutic context for people who need their lives changed the most – those suffering from substance abuse.
The Canadian Study
In the first study of its kind, Canadian researchers led by Dr. Gerald Thomas and co-funded by the Multidisciplinary Association of Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) studied the effects of ayahuasca-assisted therapy on a group of 12 individuals who were struggling with substance abuse.[1. MAPS Pres Release: "Results Published: Ayahuasca-Assisted Therapy May Have Benefits for Substance Use Disorders." https://www.maps.org/ayahuasca-treatment/262-ayahuasca-research-news-timeline/4671-results-published-ayahuasca-assisted-therapy] The study, whose results were published in the Current Drug Abuse Reviews journal in 2013, involved four days of treatment in a retreat-style setting, with group counseling, open dialogue, and two ayahuasca ceremonies lead by expert facilitators.[2."Ayahuasca-Assisted Therapy for Addiction: Results from a Preliminary Observational Study in Canada." Current Drug Abuse Reviews, Vol. 6, Issue 1. https://www.eurekaselect.com/111922/article]
In keeping with the vision of helping those who need it most, the subjects who were chosen for the study belonged to a rural First Nations community, a group that is statistically much more at risk for addiction disorders. All were struggling with chronic substance abuse, and many of them had already tried and failed to overcome their addictions through conventional rehab. One of the strengths of psychedelic therapy that's been seen in similar scientific research is its ability to help those who have not been successful in traditional recovery programs, and this study reinforced that trend even further.
According to the authors of the study, major improvements were reported in the lives and behaviors of the subjects. Alcohol and tobacco use declined, and cocaine use in particular sharply declined, while cannabis and opiate use experienced no change. This gives some insights into the particular strengths of ayahuasca therapy as compared to other psychedelic therapies, such as ibogaine, which is particularly effective at treating opiate abuse. It's also important to note that there was no evidence of any harm associated with the ingestion of the ayahuasca.
Beyond the demonstrable reductions in substance abuse, the ayahuasca therapy also significantly improved the lives and well-being of the participants. Major improvements were measured in the subjects' hopefulness, empowerment, mindfulness, and general outlook on life. Since addiction often stems from feelings of hopelessness and disempowerment, these changes are not just ancillary to reducing substance abuse, but critical to addressing addiction at its roots.
These encouraging findings serve to illustrate many things. First, that ayahuasca shows great promise in the fight against addiction and drug abuse, which is a problem that affects millions of people across the globe. Second, it broadens our understanding of psychedelics and psychedelic therapy, a still fledgling field that can only benefit from more scientific research. And finally, it lends scientific credence to the many thousands of personal accounts of the incredible healing powers of ayahuasca, and especially the wisdom of the indigenous peoples who have used it ceremonially for thousands of years. Through science, we are beginning to verify what many indigenous cultures have known for millennia: that properly facilitated psychedelic journeys are incredible tools for healing and personal transformation.

Boxes and books are in fact packagings.
In addition to the protective function, which they almost always have, these packages often give a certain appearance to the presentation of the content. In other words, by giving their shape and appearance an added value.
A standard form that is suitable for any content does not exist.
Each content deserves its own approach, which has just been an exact fit. Of course, taking into account the function, use, purpose, in short, the wishes of the customer.
Sometimes a perfectly protective clamshell box for precious prints or a book is needed. No frills, extremely functional. Another time a "story" must be added to the content. Then it begins playing with shapes, materials and colours, resulting in a unique copy.
For a sheet or sheets of paper, or pictures, the same applies. These can be bundled as a book, but also loose a "pack". Endless are the possibilities of snaping paper or manifesting in all kinds of contemporary bindings, book structures and forms of presentation.
The quality of the shape, the structure, the functionality and the finish should of course be of a high level and I am highly accustomed to it. This applies to both books and boxes.
I am in a position to find and make a suitable form, taking into account the personal wishes.
Many years of experience are the basis for this.
Come and talk about your wishes.

Anna Kendrick Relieves Braff's Kickstarter Controversy
Steven Kilbourn May 19th, 2013 - 1:55 AM
Anna Kendrick has signed on for one of the lead roles in the Zach Braff upcoming indie film "Wish I Was Here." The Oscar nominated actress ("Up in the Air") of "Twilight" fame will play a young woman obsessed with Cosplay who garners the attention of Braff's character's brother in the film.
Kendrick's attachment is also good news for the Braff Kickstarter project, which has been plagued with controversy in recent weeks. She is the second star to join the cast this week along with Mandy Patinkin, best known for playing Saul Berenson on "Homeland." These two performers' involvement with the film has helped curtail some of the backlash from critics concerning Braff's seemingly misleading and contradictory methods of securing funds for the project.
From an undeniably successful Kickstarter campaign that began on on April 23, Braff has already raised more than $2.6 million from 38,000-plus backers for "Wish I Was Here." However, following updates released on Wednesday, it has been reported that the movie-investment company Worldview Entertainment has stepped up to provide "gap financing" for the film's estimated $5 million to $5.5 million budget. This has been seen a major blow to Braff's fans who say it violates the spirit of crowd-funding as set forth by Braff himself, who claimed he did not want industry types getting in the way of the director's final cut.
Braff responded to the Worldview Entertainment issue directly on his Kickstarter update page, claiming that the project is only funded by three sources: Kickstarter backers, his own money, and pre-selling foreign theatrical distribution. Braff argued, "Nothing about the making of this movie has changed. This movie is happening because backers funded it. This film would not be happening without my backers."
When Rob Thomas' Kickstarter effort for The Veronica Mars Movie Project became the fastest campaign to reach its goal of $ 2 million in Kickstarter history, it threw open the doors to new possibilities for big name filmmakers. But with this recent "gap financing" criticism, it is evident that the film industry is still figuring out how best to make use of crowdfunding.

By Aaron Taube April 20th, 2015
A little more than a year ago, the Dutch bank ING Group decided it needed to change the magazine it had been giving shareholders.
The magazine, published in print and transposed to the web, was the sort of inwardly-focused corporate publication going out of fashion these days. The content was almost exclusively about ING, and the opinion pages served as a platform for the bank's senior leaders to opine on global trends—regardless of whether those trends fell under their areas of expertise.
Instead, Head of External Communications Egmont Philips and his team chose to embrace a new format, one that put both the digital experience and the reader first. In May 2014, the company introduced ing.world, a digital quarterly magazine that broadened the editorial scope to include thoughtful analysis of the business world at large. In doing so, ING has been able to reach an audience beyond the small slice of highly-interested shareholders who used to read the old print magazine. In fact, the sleek, insightful publication now sees up to 35,000 unique visitors per issue and recently won an award for being Europe's best branded web magazine.
"By revamping our magazine, we have attracted a completely different audience, which was our target, and the reach has been higher as well," Philips said. "Basically, we were surprised by its success. We had hoped it would work, but we actually have had greater reach than we had aimed for."
The new publication, published in both English and in Dutch, is structured similarly to the popular public radio program "This American Life," as each issue has a theme that is explored from several angles.
For instance, the theme of the most recent issue of is "family," a topic ing.world delved into with a feature story on how important family businesses are to the economy, and an interview with the Dutch psychologist Frans de Waal comparing the way humans and animals relate to their respective family members.
Each issue is released alongside ING Group's quarterly financial results and includes both a roundup of ING news and a video interview with CEO Ralph Hamers. Philips said the magazine's primary goal is to help its readers get ahead in their lives and in business.
By choosing broad topics and exploring them from angles that don't always have to do with finance, ing.world is able to provide readers with content that is relevant to their interests even if they are not ING customers or lack financial literacy.
"There's different content, and different audiences start by reading different articles," Philips said. "It's a bit like how a painter has a palette with different colors and blends it into one painting. That's how we do it as well."
From a visual standpoint, the publication relies on large photos, white space, and a clean, responsive design to pull the reader into an experience that feels somewhat shielded from the rest of the white noise of the Internet.
Each issue is crafted by two ING employees—who also have other responsibilities at the firm—and two employees from the creative agency Born05. Some of the articles are written in-house, while others are done by freelancers. ING Group's central corporate office in Amsterdam, which publishes ing.world, works with the regional offices in the 12 countries it has retail banks to make sure the magazine does not interfere or contradict with the content each office is producing locally.
For instance, the head office is responsible for ing.world and press releases, but the company's retail banking branch in Belgium is responsible for the print content found in its offices and online packages that educate customers about the different financial tools they will need for life milestones such as going away to college or buying a house.
When it comes to distribution, the company's primary tools are its website and social media. In addition to the organic reach of its owned channels, ING amplifies its social distribution by asking employees and influencers featured in the magazine to share the publication from their personal accounts.
ING will also pay to seed its content in targeted LinkedIn groups that have members interested in finance. The company, at one point, tried placing banner ads for ing.world on a Dutch financial news site, but while the effort drew lots of clicks, most of the readers left the site almost immediately. This last bit is important because the bank considers attention time a crucial metric for determining the success of its content.
According to Dagmar van der Plas, an ING senior advisor who manages the publication's distribution strategy, ing.world strives to keep its audience members on the page for at least two minutes. Otherwise, it's unlikely the reader will have had time to absorb a typical story.
The amount of time someone spends on a piece of content is the difference between whether ING successfully engaged with the reader or merely communicated with him.
"When you communicate, you spread your message and that's about it, but to reach a real engagement with your reader, you have to be really at the heart of what they want to hear from you," van der Plas said. "Our profession is 'communications,' but I believe more in 'engaging,' so I would prefer to be called an 'engagement manager' rather than a 'communication manager.'"
By the looks of things, ING is succeeding in developing a base of readers that do, in fact, want to engage with its content. According to its internal metrics, the publication is getting more than three times as many readers per issue as the old magazine, and an impressive 60 percent of those readers return to the magazine a second time.
In a corporate culture, it can be tough for a company to take a step back and make such a drastic overhaul to its marketing strategy. But ING is a great example of what can happen when content informs the reader rather than just promoting a company's services. And as ING continues to build long-term relationships with consumers, it can now bank on content to drive its business forward.

Michigan's two peninsulas are separated by the four-mile-wide Straits of Mackinac*, which is the body of water that connects Lake Michigan and Lake Huron. In the 19th century passenger ferries transported people between the Upper and Lower Peninsulas, and in the 1920s, the state implemented car ferries so that people could get their automobiles across the Straits. Immediately there was great demand for this service, and soon there were reports that the lines of cars waiting to board would sometimes be backed up as much as 15 miles! Clearly there was a need for a bridge. This represented a monumental challenge, in terms of both engineering and expense. But in November 1957, the new Mackinac Bridge opened to traffic. At the time it was the costliest stretch of road in the world, and it remains one of the longest suspension bridges in the world.
*Pronounced MACK-ih-naw. Some locations spell it more phonetically - such as Mackinaw City - but both spellings are pronounced the same. The word is a French corruption of an Ojibwa name for a division of their tribe, early inhabitants of the area.
The website mackinacbridge.org has lots more information, history, facts, and figures about the Bridge itself... but the focus of this page is the Mackinac Bridge Dedication Festival, which took place the following summer.
Telephone exchanges (the first two digits of a seven-digit phone number were displayed as letters).
Thursday morning, June 26, Faye met her escorts - Don and Norma Iverson of Lake City - at the bus station in Cadillac (school was out, and Faye was living with her older sister Carole in Grand Rapids for the summer).
First they went to Lake City to pick up the brand-new 1958 white convertible that had been specially provided by the Oldsmobile Company for the Mackinaw Bridge dedication - complete with custom decals.
Mom felt pretty special when she saw that; as she told me years later, "We Falmouth people did not have expensive cars!" There was a "send-off" for Faye at the annual flower show in Lake City, and apparently she got to pick the winner in a jackpot drawing there. From there they went up to Petoskey, where they had dinner. Later that evening they toured Mackinaw City, and saw some friends in St. Ignace. Then north again, to the Sou Engineering College campus in Sault Ste. Marie*. Faye and Mrs. Iverson stayed there at Brady Hall; Miss Monroe County (Margaret Steed) and her chaperone shared the room with them (Faye said they were too excited to sleep very well that night). Meanwhile, Mr. Iverson had to go back south to his sleeping quarters at Camp Kinross, where all the convertibles were washed, refueled, and stored in hangars for the night.
*Pronounced "soo saint muh-REE", which I believe is French for "the Falls (or Rapids) of St. Mary".
Afterwards the motorcade went back up to Sault Ste. Marie, where the drivers once again dropped off the ladies. Faye says they arrived at midnight; she and Miss Monroe washed their wind-blown hair and finally retired for the night at 1:30 am. This time, they slept soundly!
The official itinerary for Saturday, June 28, had the drivers waking up at 5:30 am and departing Kinross for Sault Ste. Marie at 6:00. The queens and chaperones were to awaken at 6:00 and meet the drivers at 6:30; one can imagine how everyone must have felt after about four hours of sleep! Breakfast was at 7:00 in the Knights of Columbus Hall, and the motorcade once again departed for St. Ignace at 8:00. There each car was joined by a Cub Scout from Petoskey. All the queens from Lower Peninsula counties crossed over to the Mackinaw City side, while the Upper Peninsula queens remained on the north side. Then they joined separate military parades that took place on each peninsula.
After everyone was assembled on the Bridge, two trucks with spools of long green ribbon attached to their side mirrors departed from opposite sides of the Straits. Upon reaching the anchor block, the ends of the ribbons were detached from the trucks and tied to both sides of the speaker's podium. During the formal ceremony (which began at 11:30) these two ribbons were tied together to symbolize the joining of the two peninsulas that had been accomplished with the completion of the Mackinaw Bridge. Later each driver got to cut off a foot-long piece of the ribbon; Mr. Iverson gave his ribbon to Faye, and it is still preserved in her scrapbook.
Several 5- or 10-minute speeches were given by various political, military, and clerical leaders, as well as by leaders of the companies who designed, built, and financed the Bridge. After a nearly two-hour ceremony, the queens walked back to their convertibles, ate a catered box lunch, and were then free to depart the area. The Iversons drove Faye home by way of Traverse City, where they stopped for dinner before finally arriving home around 8 pm. It had been a wonderful experience for her. The rainy weather had paused that weekend, and Faye said "...the Chamber of Commerce couldn't have chosen more congenial folks than Mr. and Mrs. Iverson to accompany me to the Bridge festival."
Not far off was the 4th of July. Faye was invited to be a part of the parade in Lake City, and later at the carnival grounds she spoke to the festival-goers about the Bridge ceremony. I believe much of the text in Faye's scrapbook (some of which is posted on these pages) was from the report that she gave on that day.
About one year after the Bridge was dedicated, Faye Tacoma graduated from high school, and almost immediately began attending a vocational school where she learned the job of an airline reservations clerk. She worked in Detroit for a few years before transferring to Denver, where she met Dale Sanderson Sr. They were married in 1963, and had two children later that decade (one of whom is me). Faye lived a beautiful life which came to an end in 2014 (a few more details can be found in her obituary).

Gyrocopter pilot raises about $10,000 toward his defense
WASHINGTON (AP) - A man who in April flew a gyrocopter through some of America's most restricted airspace before landing at the U.S. Capitol has raised about $10,000 to help with his case.
Douglas Hughes appeared in federal court in Washington on Thursday as part of his ongoing case. Earlier this week, a judge allowed him to add an attorney to his team to assist a public defender. The lawyer, Mark Goldstone, said Thursday that crowdfunding websites had raised $9,900 toward Hughes' defense, an amount capped by the judge. Goldstone, an expert in civil disobedience cases like Hughes', said fundraising has now been shut down.
Attorneys said that they hope to know whether there will be a trial or a plea deal in the case at a hearing scheduled for Oct. 8.

When I ride I get clarity on things. Last night it became clear to me that I am afraid that if I have a career as an artist (and/or writer), I will not be able to maintain a love relationship. That fear has got to go! For me, career is part of my identity. Since last spring, I've stopped pushing creative work; I've been reevaluating what is important to me. Mostly, I'd rather cook and enjoy a shared meal, or stay in bed lying close to my man, than carve out the time for art. It's been good to relax, though sometimes I feel like I've found myself in the middle of deep water with no land in sight. Maybe I am overfilling the well!

Hi guys! I finally put together the recipe for the homemade pad thai we showed on Instastories a week or so ago. I hope you guys like it!
Begin boiling the noodles as instructed on the box. I like to add a pinch of garlic salt to the water once it comes to a boil just to give the noodles a little flavor.
Heat up olive oil in a large saucepan and add the frozen veggies along with garlic salt, lemon pepper seasoning and the chopped white part of the green onions (fun fact, the white part is best for cooking).
Cook on medium for about 2 minutes.
In a mixing bowl, add the diced chicken along with some olive oil, the curry powder, garlic salt, and turmeric and toss until the chicken pieces are all evenly covered.
Add the seasoned chicken to the saucepan with the veggies and cook for about 7 minutes on medium.
By now, the noodles should be fully cooked. Drain the pot and add the noodles to the saucepan.
Now add about a quarter cup each of the peanut sauce and the Go-Chu-Jang sauce to the saucepan and mix thoroughly.
Set lower the heat and let it cook for a few more minutes.
Divide up the portions into bowls and add the chopped green ends of the green onions, cilantro, and a lime slice as garnishes.
Feed everyone in the room and take full credit from everyone for making amazing food!
