'Kick a Ginger' tumult shows anti-bullying effort not working
(Prince Rupert, British Columbia, Canada) Another story of abuse has emerged in British Columbia as a result of a Facebook campaign to kick redheads — and this time it was a teacher's own brother who was targeted. A Facebook group, declaring Nov. 20 as "Kick a Ginger Day," encouraged people to kick their redheaded peers. The Facebook group was likely inspired by South Park, a satirical, animated TV show that aired an episode dealing with prejudice, focusing on one character's hateful attitude toward redheads. Prince Rupert Secondary School teacher Tulani Ackerman told CBC News her younger brother, who goes to high school in the Kootenays, was kicked in the groin by a number of students and fled the school out of fear. "My mother stated that he had been a victim to it, and that he felt so unsafe in his school because kids were kicking him that he left school and that he felt so unsafe going out that night without somebody with him," Ackerman said. She said the incident shows that anti-bullying messages aren't getting through to some kids. "It's as though they're in that mob mentality where they would not do it if they were by themselves," Ackerman said. "They get caught up in the energy of it and they just move with it. The scary thing about when kids get caught up in the movement of something is they have no idea of the impact on that child that has had to go home because they've been kicked." She and her class have decided to dye their hair red on Nov. 27, a week to the day of the event, to denounce the violence.

Twilight, director Catherine Hardwicke's adaptation of Stephenie Meyer's vampire-romance novel, easily won the weekend box office with a $70.6 mil debut gross, according to Sunday's estimates. Fellow freshman flick Bolt and hefty holdover Quantum of Solace, meanwhile, trailed far behind. That huge premiere number represents achievements on many levels for Twilight. It's the top debut ever for a film directed by one woman (Mimi Leder's Deep Impact banked $41.2 mil on its initial weekend 10 years ago). It's the 29th best first-weekend bow of all time (falling just shy of 300's $70.9 mil and coming in just ahead of Transformers' $70.5 mil). It's by far the biggest opening yet for fledgling studio Summit, whose previous best bow was Never Back Down's $8.6 mil back in March. It stands as the fourth biggest premiere of the year -- better than Quantum of Solace's $67.5 mil opening, better than WALL-E's $63.1 mil, better than Hancock's $62.6 mil, to name a few.
eHarmony settles suit, agrees to offer same-sex services
Three years after a New Jersey resident filed a discrimination suit against Web-based matchmaking service eHarmony.com, the online dating portal has settled out of court and agreed to offer same-sex matchmaking services to members. Garden State resident Eric McKinley filed suit against the California-based company in 2005. As part of the settlement, eHarmony agrees to provide new services for members identifying themselves as "male seeking a male" or "female seeking a female" by March 2009. eHarmony did reserve the right to provide a disclaimer -- that its compatibility-based matching system was developed solely on the basis of researched focused on married heterosexual couples. "I applaud the decision of eHarmony to settle this case and extend its matching services to those seeking same-sex relationships," New Jersey Division on Civil Rights director J. Frank Vespa-Papaleo said in a statement Wednesday. eHarmony was one of a few Web-based dating holdouts that had not ventured into the world of offering same-sex dating services. Last year Time magazine named eHarmony one of the five websites to avoid, noting, among other things, its discrimination against gay people. READ MORE
Former cop pleads not guilty in beating of Duanna Johnson
A retired Memphis, Tenn., policeman entered a not-guilty plea Wednesday on charges that he violated the civil rights of a transgender prostitution suspect in a beating that was caught on tape, reports the Associated Press. The indictment accuses the officer, Bridges McRae, 28, of using excessive force during the intake of Duanna Johnson (pictured) at the Shelby County Jail in February. The video shows McRae repeatedly hitting Johnson, a trans woman, with his fists and handcuffs. McRae and his former partner, James Swain, 25, were both fired after the recording aired on local TV stations and online in June. After McRae pleaded not guilty, he was released on bail and no trial date has been set. If he is convicted of violating Johnson's civil rights while in a position of authority, McRae faces up to a 10-year prison sentence and a $250,000 fine. Johnson was fatally shot in Memphis earlier this month, and the slaying is still being investigated
Mark Doty wins National Book Award for poetry
An acclaimed gay writer just got more acclaimed. Mark Doty's Fire to Fire: New and Collected Poems won the National Book Award for poetry at an awards presentation Wednesday night in New York City. "Elegant, plain-spoken, and unflinching, Mark Doty's poems in Fire to Fire gently invite us to share their ferocious compassion," says a blurb on the website of the National Book Foundation, the organization behind the National Book Awards. "With their praise for the world and their fierce accusation, their defiance and applause, they combine grief and glory in a music of crazy excelsis. In this generous retrospective volume a gifted young poet has become a master." Fire to Fire is a collection of Doty's work from 20 years and seven books of poetry, and it includes new poems as well. The pieces touch on moral ambiguity, art, and sensuality. Doty -- who splits his time between Provincetown, Mass., and Texas, where he teaches at the University of Houston -- has received much praise for his poems as well as memoirs, which include titles like Firebird, Still Life With Oysters and Lemon: On Objects and Intimacy, and Dog Years. Doty has been honored with the National Book Critics Circle Award, the PEN/Martha Albrand Award for First Nonfiction, the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, a Whiting Writers Award, a Lila Wallace-Reader's Digest Writer's Award, and the T.S. Eliot Prize.

Michael Jackson 'reaches out-of-court deal'
Michael Jackson reached an out-of-court settlement with an Arab sheikh over a multi-million pound court action, a spokeswoman said. The pop superstar was expected to appear at the High Court in London on Monday to give evidence in a case against the King of Bahrain's son, Sheikh Abdulla bin Hamad Al Khalifa, who claimed the singer owed him £4.7 million. But spokeswoman Celena Aponte, of The Outside Organisation Ltd, said: "As Mr Jackson was about to board his plane to London, he was advised by his legal team to postpone his travels since the parties had concluded a settlement in principle. Therefore, he will not be attending court on Monday."
Vermont Governor would reject marriage bill
Vermont governor Jim Douglas would oppose a law granting same-sex marriages, according to the Associated Press. The Republican governor said Thursday that the state's "current civil union law is sufficient." State senator John Campbell, who said he would introduce the bill during the legislature's next session, said it won't gain much traction without the governor's backing. Instead, the governor said, he would rather the legislature concentrate on the state's fiscal shortfalls. Vermont has accrued a $36.8 million revenue shortfall, with a $27 million request for new spending. However, Campbell and Vermont's Freedom to Marry Task Force's Beth Robinson say that Douglas is asserting that the legislature can only take on one issue at a time. "The notion that working on civil rights takes away from these other issues really is a false one," Robinson told the Associated Press.
Daniel Radcliffe's 'Equus' hit by poor sales
Daniel Radcliffe's Broadway show Equus has been hit by poor ticket sales, US reports say. The Harry Potter actor made his Broadway debut in the Peter Shaffer play in September, with stars including Kathleen Turner and Glenn Close turning out for the opening night. However, audiences have since slumped and just over 50% of tickets are now being sold per performance. The West End run of the show in 2007 was a sell-out, with Radcliffe's performance winning him the Newcomer Of The Year gong at the Whatsonstage Theatregoers's Choice Awards.
A Fortune 500 take on Prop. 8
The old saying goes that every cloud has a silver lining. And on November 5, the day after California voters stripped same-sex couples of the right to marry, so many around the country were searching for one. It is easy to get bogged down with all the negative news about California's Proposition 8 -- the continuing bias against loving, committed gay and lesbian couples among communities of faith, who with breathtaking efficiency raised millions of dollars to enshrine discrimination into the Golden State's constitution; the now-discredited claims that people of color were the reason for the ban's passage; and the lasting ramifications of those premature, divisive, and ultimately false assertions.

NEW Interview: Politics and progress with Patti LaBelle
The last time girl-group Labelle dropped an album, the thought of a black president or same-sex marriage seemed as "far-out" as the band's disco-spacewoman suits and fusion of disco, rock, and soul. It was 1976, to be exact, and even though Sarah Dash, Nona Hendryx, and Patti LaBelle continued to put out their own work, 2008's Back to Now is their first full-length effort since Elton John came out of the closet. Always a fan of her own gay following, we caught up with Miss Patti, fresh off of a cross-country red-eye flight, and did some much-needed dishing about the new album, Barack Obama, and her pal Jennifer Hudson.

Ireland's gays reveal isolation and discrimination: study
A new study of the lives of lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans people in the West of Ireland has found that nearly 70% of them have suffered some form of discrimination. 90% felt isolated at times because of their sexual orientation or gender identity. The report was commissioned by LGBT West - a consortium of statutory and voluntary service providers in counties Mayo, Galway and Roscommon, including county councils, rural and city partnership companies and lesbian and gay groups. 50% of those who had experienced discrimination were verbally abused and 20% had been physically attacked. "The extent and nature of discrimination reported by respondents is of extreme concern," the report said. "The impacts of discrimination can range from isolation and social exclusion to psychological distress, unemployment, poverty and a poor quality of life." Half of respondents said their health care provider assumed they are heterosexuals. READ MORE
Gay novelist, Tom Rob Smith's debut, Child 44, nominated for prestigious book award
The acclaimed thriller Child 44 has been nominated for a top award for the 2008 Costa First Novel Award. Tom Rob Smith's masterful book, set against the bleak backdrop of 1950s Russia, follows respected secret policeman Leo Demidov and his wife Raisa. His first novel, it caused a fierce bidding war at the London Book Fair. Child 44 follows Leo as he struggles to track down a child-murdering serial killer whilst facing the Soviet system that refuses to believe crime exists unless committed by so-called 'deviants.' In the poverty-stricken era of Stalin's cruel regime, homeless drunks and homosexuals are arrested for non-existent offences while paranoid citizens are pressured into denouncing suspected criminals, including friends and family members. Since the release of Child 44 in February, Smith has been thrust rather rapidly into the limelight of the literary world. The 29-year-old was nominated for the Man Booker, one of the most prestigious prizes in literature, earlier this year. READ MORE
Scientists discover 21st century plague
Bacteria that can cause serious heart disease in humans are being spread by rat fleas, sparking concern that the infections could become a bigger problem in humans. Research published in the December issue of the Journal of Medical Microbiology suggests that brown rats, the biggest and most common rats in Europe, may now be carrying the bacteria. Since the early 1990s, more than 20 species of Bartonella bacteria have been discovered. They are considered to be emerging zoonotic pathogens, because they can cause serious illness in humans worldwide from heart disease to infection of the spleen and nervous system. "A new species called Bartonella rochalimae was recently discovered in a patient with an enlarged spleen who had travelled to South America," said Professor Chao-Chin Chang from the National Chung Hsing University in Taiwan. "This event raised concern that it could be a newly emerged zoonotic pathogen. Therefore, we decided to investigate further to understand if rodents living close to human environment could carry this bacteria."
Gay man murdered sitting in car
(Syracuse, New York) A 20-year-old man is charged with the unprovoked murder of a Syracuse man in what police say was a hate crime. Moses Cannon, 20 (pictured), was sitting in a car with his brother Mark, 18, about to enter a party they had been invited to by an acquaintance. Before they could get out of the vehicle, guests at the party came outside the house and began yelling homophobic epithets at them. Syracuse Police Chief Gary Miguel said that one of the guests, Dwight DeLee, went into the residence and returned with a 22-caliber rifle. Miguel said DeLee then put the rifle to the driver's side window of that vehicle and fired one round. "And that one round strikes Mark Cannon in the arm, and continues on and strikes Moses Cannon in the chest area," Miguel told local cable news station News 10. According to Miguel, DeLee fired at the brothers because Moses Cannon was gay. "Our suspect took a rifle and shot and killed this person, wounding also his brother, for the sole reason that he didn't care for the sexual preference of our victim. And isn't that sad?" Miguel told the station. READ MORE
How global warming may affect U.S. beaches, coastline
Several scientists from Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego are finding that sea level rise will have different consequences in different places but that they will be profound on virtually all coastlines. Land in some areas of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the United States will simply be underwater. On the West Coast, with its different topography and different climate regimes, problems will likely play out differently. The scientists' most recent conclusions, even when conservative scenarios are involved, suggest that coastal development, popular beaches, vital estuaries, and even California's supply of fresh water could be severely impacted by a combination of natural and human-made forces. Scripps climate scientists often consider changes in average conditions over many years but, in this case, it's the extremes that have them worried. A global sea level rise that makes gentle summer surf lap at a beachgoer's knees rather than his or her ankles is one thing. But when coupled with energetic winter El Niño-fueled storms and high tides, elevated water levels would have dramatic consequences. The result could transform the appearance of the beaches at the heart of California's allure. "As sea level goes up, some beaches are going to shrink," said Scripps oceanographer Peter Bromirski. "Some will probably disappear." READ MORE
James Franco takes on another gay role, playing Allen Ginsberg
James Franco is to play homosexual poet Allen Ginsberg in new movie Howl. The picture marks the second consecutive gay role for the actor after he played Scott Smith, the longtime partner of gay rights campaigner Harvey Milk, in Milk. However, Franco insisted that the sexuality of the characters he plays does not "make any difference to me". "Ginsberg has been one of my heroes, and this movie is just so important," he told the New York Daily News. "I'm playing him when he was in his late 20s, just after he went to Columbia. We work with the old pictures. He has hair, he doesn't have a beard and he's not huge." Howl is named after Ginsberg's most famous poem. The movie will focus on the 1957 obscenity trial caused by the piece.

This was hand written through out five days. It expresses my feelings, emotions and my brokenness through out my encounter in Madrid. It is written in chronological order and some of it will not make sense to you but it will for me. I will try to be as clear as can be.
At this point in time I'm some where over the Atlantic Ocean. I got to New York earlier than expected, so I changed my flight to Madrid to an earlier flight, ensuring me that I would get to Madrid earlier. I called the Hotel and changed my reservations. As I was checking in for my flight to madrid I was bumped into First class, which is a nice bonus.
Now, I'm trying to reflect on the events of my life that have brought me here. I'm in a haze of emotion trying to figure out what will come next. My mind is scattered and it seems like I'm on autopilot; all the things I do are thing I have to do, I have to go to school, I have to see this person or that person.
So much has changed in my life recently, family, friends, me. Sometimes, I look at myself in the mirror and don't recognize who I am. I'm a totally different person. Sometimes I wonder, if I where to disappear, would anyone notice?
I have contemplated the notion for some time now, just go somewhere where no one know your name. Where your forced to see yourself in the mirror and get to know yourself.
Death affect all of us, some more than others. For me, I wasn't close to my uncle; I met him once when I was ten. I was young then, didn't understand much. It just seems weird that he would leave me something in his will, but then again, I am the next male in the family and by tradition I would be next in line for the 'Sanchez Estate' (this includes family heirlooms, real estate, capital, and personal mementos). If this where the case, I have already talked to a lawyer about my situation, the entire estate will be given to the rightful owner, my mom, by signing to receive the estate and then transferring ownership to her. In this legal form, it is expressed that I am not to know what the estate entails, therefore not clouding my judgement. I should get some rest before I land.
It's about 11:30 am here, so it should be around 2:30 am back home, I'm tired and jet lagged. Everything here seems very different. I've been in Europe before, but it just seems very different this time around. I have been wondering around the city, seeing that I arrived at 10:10, a bit earlier than my 3 pm check- in for my hotel reservations. The more I look around the more it seems that I am really misplaced; I am descendant of a Spaniard, but I have no cultural knowledge, other of the wine tasting and the ability to have late dinners. Other than that I'm in no way a Spaniard. I see the way people interact, how they speak. I feel left out, a feeling of emptiness. I'm just so drained from school and the flight that I barely know where I am. I know that I have to check in my hotel at 3 pm after that I know that I have a meeting with Eduardo for a job in late summer. What I will do in between is anyones' guess.
I'm not scared of what is to come, I'm just not sure he chose the right person. Let me give you a bit of a back story on my family. My uncle was the first son of my grandmother, then she had my aunt, left her husband for about three years, then had my mother, out of wedlock and what not. My mother's father was a international business man in Europe. My mother never got to met him. My grandmother when back to her 1st husband and the rest is history. She had more kids but every one just went their own way. My uncle joined the church to become a priest. He has always had a soft spot for my mother even though they are only half siblings. Spanish tradition states that the next in line to get any estate would be ones offsprings, but seeing that he has none, it goes to the one next generation in line which would be my older cousin, but he has been 'missing' ever since I was five. Therefore I'm the one to receive this estate. It just seems that I'm receiving this because of all the problems in my family. I hate that Spanish tradition oversees the women of my family. I mean my mother could have gotten this seeing as she is the oldest living sibling. Heck he could have split the estate with all his siblings. Why give it to me? I don't want to deal will this. I need to take a sedative…..
Everything seems to have quite down around here; maybe that has to do that it's 2 am. There really isn't much to write about, I checked in and my room is awesome, I went out to check out the hot spots here and its very pretty. After that I came back to my hotel room and slept until an hour before my meeting with Eduardo. The meeting went well, we met a very upscale Euro club, called 'la boca del diablo' needless to say I had some drinks while talking business. in the middle of our informal interview I was ask to show my talents, I say it was ok with me. Eduardo informs me that the studio is only a couple blocks away.
We get there a bit slowly seeing that we had very good vodka, but I'm not drunk just a bit tipsy. He shows me his 'Studio C.' I all have to say is that if that is their studio c then I will wet myself if I see studio A. Then after is turned on I start mix on some raw material they had recorded a few days back. After about half an hour, he turns to me and tell me that, I have a very distinct mixing style. "You mix like a Brit with the grooves of a New Yorker and the kick of a LA kid." I turned and told him, "I'm originally from LA, moved to New York and studied under a Brit." Needless to say he was a tad impressed, and he like the way I spoke spanish. After about 15 minutes I finished the mix and I was told to expect a call in the next few days.
Right now, I'm trying not to think to hard about tomorrow. I need to focus on the task on hand, I need to go to the bank and then catch the train to Zamora, there I will do the rest of my business.
I woke this morning to some light rain, I didn't give it much thought seeing that it is winter and what not. I was nervous. I had anxiety but my meeting with the lawyer wasn't until later of the day so I took another sedative, trying to calm my nerves. I got ready and when to the bank to see that all my finances are in order. This is the first time anyone in that bank sees me, it's the first time I have ever been in that bank. To say the least I was a tad shocked when I went in and saw that this was not ordinary bank. This bank is a very upscale bank which only cater to the few and privileged, something I am not. I have an account due to the caring nature and high standing of my deceased uncle. This is the same bank where my trust is. But I cannot see what that trust is until I'm 21. It took me about 15 minute to get through security and then I had to show that I was who I say I am. They do not take a US ID at all, they say it too easy to fake. Therefore, I had to show my Spaniard Passport. It was just very weird, the bank teller and I had to turn keys to open the box where my transactions are stored. But everything seems to be in line with records.
After that I went out for some lunch, before I headed to Zamora for my meeting. As I caught the train, it hit me. What the hell am I doing? I could take this estate is given to me, drop out of school and just write my ticket in the US or even here in Europe. Then, questioned I myself. why I thought that.
The train trip was short, Zamora is about 150 kms ( about 75 miles) out side of Madrid. I got there and I did what I had originally planed, I gave them the letter from my lawyer saying that I didn't want to know what the estate entailed, I would sign to validate the transfer of ownership, and I, in turn, would transfer ownership to my mother. What surprised me was that his lawyer knew that I was going to that. I was a bit shock to say the least. The estate will be in my mother name and she could do whatever she wants with it. But I was not called to Spain for the transfer of an estate. In his will, he clearly stated that I, Kenneth Roland Rodriguez (Spainish Passport, "Rolando Rodriguez") will have his personal journals and a letter that will be given to me personally in this place.
Journals and a letter? I know most people might the wondering why? I don't know. What I do know is that the letter was written the day before he died. It talk about how he admires my determination, and my strong will to break tradition to follow my dreams. He goes to explain that he knew he was dying but didn't tell anyone, he didn't want peoples pity. He ends with a heed of warning (translated in to english from spanish) "Live life without regrets, live your life and not the one your parents want for you. Sometimes you have to break tradition, disobey parents and just run away from everything to be truly happy." As I read the letter, I could not stop the tears flowing from my eyes. This was a man I barely knew, but was saying exactly what I need to hear. I now regret not spending the time to know this great person. Maybe this is so ironically that I don't understand; this person had to die for I to take and interest in his life, so my life can change.
I haven't started reading the journals yet, and these aren't any normal journals, these are those big leather bonded ones.
After all of this I headed to my aunts house and met my family once more, after ten years of absence.
Two of my cousin, Carolina and Veronica, where there so we went back to Madrid and , hit up a few of the colleges and crashed parties. Oh, did I mention that this is during Carnival? Hey its going to be the only night I will be able to get hammered, but I really know how to hold my liquor so I'm not that hammered.
Today was my last day in Spain. I really didn't do much other than figuring out why my uncle wanted me to have his journals. I went back to Zamora to leave my cousin back at home and say good bye to my family here. Recapping on the whole experience I would had liked to visit without a reason, other than to see them. I enjoyed spending time with my cousins, Carolina and Veronica. I can't believe I went party crashing with them.
As I read the most intimate thoughts of my uncle, I notice that he did not want to go into the church. The church was his only way out. According to him, he wanted to become a musician, but his parent disapproved of his aspirations of going into music instead of business. He went into the church as a way to still be involved in music as a priest that would be direct a choir or something like that.
Hopefully as I read more and more about his life I will come to understand how me and him are closer than I originally thought. As I go through my life, I now know that there are people that support my decision with breaking traditions, and cutting off parts of my family to ultimately being happy with my life's work.
Hopefully when I get back to the States I will no longer be the person that blends-in in a crowd. I hope that I will be able to live my life without regrets and be able to go for the things I wouldn't normally do.
I have learned much from my uncle…. May his soul be in peace. Uncle, I don't know where you are, but all I can say is I miss you, even though I never really knew you.

Tony's Early Life and Education
Delgado was born in 1986 and his place of birth is in Hoboken, New Jersey, the United States. When he was 2 years old, his father left after which he started being raised by his single mother. He was highly inspired by his mother who was a computer programmer by profession in the late 1980s and early 1980s. When he was in his second grade, he learned to code and was one of the first kids in his area with access to the internet.
At the age of 16, he started selling on platforms like eBay and Amazon. He used to sell mixtape CDs and started making a profit as a teenager. His entrepreneurship tendencies allow him to secure profit from $50 a week to $3,000 a day just through the internet.
He is now located Puerto Rico as a full-time resident. The multimillionaire tech entrepreneur has started a mission to rebuild the Puerto Rican economy through The Disrupt Foundation, a non-profit organization. With his hard work, Disrupt Week is considered one of the biggest tech and entrepreneurship conferences educating and inspiring people for better financial status.
He has also been hosting Disrupt Podcast and is seen being interviewed the most disruptive leaders, entrepreneurs, innovators and change-makers in the world. In 2009, Tony Delgado started his first seven-figure e-commerce business. Tony later launched an online magazine called Hyper Eater, which focused on pop culture, music and fashion. His expertise in computer programming led Delgado to launch several other online magazines, Twitter bots, content aggregators, and video sharing sites after his first one went well. Using Google advertising and Amazon affiliate marketing, these online publications were all monetized.
As a lead developer at Websignia, a New York-based digital marketing agency, Tony was in charge of corporate clients in 2015. Tony won hackathons sponsored by Fortune 500 tech companies including IBM, Intel, Microsoft and Google while he was there, gaining widespread recognition as a hacker in the developer community.
He became a business partner with internet entrepreneur Gerard Adams in Newark in the following year after selling his company Elite Daily for $50 million dollars to The Daily Mail a year earlier. The partners established a company called Newark Innovators Inc., a company dedicated to investing in and mentoring minority businesses in Newark, New Jersey.
A devastating hurricane hit Puerto Rico in 2017 resulting in the death of hundreds. Many people have been left homeless and still more were injured and killed. There was no way to predict how severe the Hurricane would be until it blew. A large number of people went to Puerto Rico to help them rebuild, and Tony Delgado was among them.
While Puerto Rico had less than half its residents without power after Hurricane Maria, Delgado made the courageous decision to fly to the island. Along with food and water, he helped rebuild homes and distributed over 300 solar panel lights. During his visit to Puerto Rico, he witnessed the economic problems faced by the island. Poor people, those who did not have money or resources, suffered the worst.
Rather than focusing on himself, Delgado decided to help the economy and people of Puerto Rico by moving there full time. It couldn't continue this way forever, so a change had to come. As soon as he realized that he would need to relocate to Puerto Rico for the sake of helping the community and people in it, Delgado knew he had to move there full time. Upon returning home, he announced he would resign as CEO of FOWNDERS and move back to the island, starting his non-profit and living there permanently. By utilizing the power of the digital economy, he saw the opportunity to teach people technology and entrepreneurship.
In order to teach kids and young adults about entrepreneurship, he created Disrupt University, an online learning ecosystem. Its mission is to make online business opportunities available to youth and to teach them about technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship. His knowledge of how to build and run a business and how to make money online would help grow Puerto Rico's economy.
As part of the Latino Wall Street movement (founded by his wife), Delgado partnered with hedge fund manager Alan Burak and options trader Gaby Berrospi to teach people about the stock market, a movement aimed at helping Latin Americans create financial security.
The Disrupt Week event series is yet another one of his online programs. In addition to bringing value and knowledge to hackers, doers, and makers, the event also provides valuable insight to successful business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs.

Tanya Chedrawy MPA(M) 2016, has over ten years experience in building media strategies to enhance organizational positioning and profile via market research, competitor evaluation, and multiple communication vehicles. She agrees with Binod Sundararajan that every voice matters. We all have an innate longing to connect, to engage in conversations that encourage, inform, entertain and inspire. Whether communication takes a traditional form or moves into the arena of social media, successful outcomes reside in an individual's ability to transmit messages with clarity and integrity. Social media has given local dialogue a global reach that invites a robust and diverse discussion.
Tanya enjoys conversations. As creator, host and producer of "Small Talk, Big Ideas" on Eastlink TV, she has applied her knowledge and experience to attract a wider audience. In a recent FaceTime interview with CFAME Connection, Tanya shared insights on how social media can leverage and build circles of influence that pursue, as Binod noted, the greater good for society.
CFAME Connection: You host and produce, "Small Talk, Big Ideas." You tell people's stories. How do you prepare for the interview?
Tanya: I like to meet with the person before taping to build a rapport and to get a sense of who they are, not just about what they do. I find that when I talk to someone there is an inevitability that those golden nuggets of information come to the surface. Always! I love discovering those nuances about people. All of us are interesting in our own way and have a unique story to tell. Even if we don't think so! This is all in addition to doing an insane amount of research. I like to be prepared!
CFAME Connection: How do you use social media to exchange ideas and knowledge?
Tanya: I only like to use my social media to spread positive messaging or pose questions about important societal issues. I am a very private person and choose not to use it for anything personal or posting about family or for posting my every thought or action. For me, personally, social media should be harnessed for important dialogue or for galvanizing people around important events/causes/issues.
CFAME Connection: How do you build a community of engaged listeners?
Tanya: In terms of building an online community of engaged listeners, I'm still trying to figure this out! This is particularly challenging for me because you can only view "Small Talk, Big Ideas" if you are a subscribed Eastlink customer. Unfortunately, clips are not made available online so I try my best to promote the show and my guests as much as I possibly can through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn.
CFAME Connection: You have said every voice matters. How can we position our voice as distinctive?
Tanya: A business mentor of mine has really been helpful on this front. He told me to create one phrase that explains who I am and what I do. Once people become familiar and identify with that phrase, they will take notice, especially if my message is relevant and delivered with respect. Essentially, I am in the business of putting the spotlight on individuals who make an impact. I continue to hone my skills, which is the point of life-long learning. That is what makes life interesting, and our personal narratives remarkable.

Alabama wins sixth annual Schooner Fall Classic
The 2018 Schooner Fall Classic saw a pair of record-breaking performances from both tournament champion Alabama and host Oklahoma. The 15-team women's golf tournament was held Sept. 28-30 at Belmar Golf Club in Norman. Alabama won the 15-team event by shooting 807 (-45) - the lowest 54-hole score in relation to par in NCAA history. The Crimson Tide's historic performance was fueled by four golfers finishing in the top 10, including individual medalist Jiwon Jeon (196, -17) and runner-up Lauren Stephenson (199, -14). "This team is so good that you don't even realize what they're doing when it's happening," Alabama head coach Mic Potter said. "You can shoot low on this golf course if you drive it in the fairway and we were able to do that. We gave ourselves chances and when we had an opportunity to make a birdie, we did. We didn't make many bogeys either. It all added up in the end." The hometown Sooners took third place with a three-round score of 831 (-21), fighting back from ninth place after the opening round. OU posted a program-record 267 (-17) on Saturday's second round and shot 25 shots under par in the final 36 holes of their home tournament. "I'm really proud of everyone for fighting the last couple of days," said OU head coach Veronique Drouin-Luttrell. "It really goes to show you that you must enjoy what you do and have a blast doing it. The last two days showed how much talent we have. Now we just have to continue working." Playing in her hometown of Norman, Sooner sophomore Kaitlin Milligan sunk five birdies on the back nine to record a 68 (-3) in the final round. Milligan tied for fifth in the individual standings with a three-day score of 68 (-3) to lead her team to the top-three showing. Hosted in partnership with the Toby Keith Foundation, the Schooner Fall Classic is a unique tournament that ties in a community service element for all participating student-athletes and coaches. Following Friday's opening round, the golfers and staff members have the opportunity to interact with children staying at OK Kids Korral in Oklahoma City. The Toby Keith Foundation works to encourage the health and happiness of pediatric cancer patients and their families through OK Kids Korral, which is a cost-free, comfortable home for pediatric patients receiving treatment. All proceeds from the Schooner Fall Classic benefit The Toby Keith Foundation as it enters its fifth year of helping children battling cancer. For the second year in a row, the tournament was also broadcasted nationally on Fox Sports Southwest, Fox College Sports Central and the Fox Sports Go App.

The Role federal mortgage banker in achieving Economic Development in Nigeria" is a term paper presented by a student of Institute of Management and Technology (IMT). This term paper is arrange in such a way that one chapter flows and usually leads to another.Organize in three chapters, the study starts in chapter one with the introduction of mortgage bank in Nigeria. This includes the definition, objectives, significance of the study etc. Chapter two is talking about the reasons for the establishment of federal mortgage bank, its organizational structure mode of operation and the rest of the whole chapter three is all about summary of findings and conclusion.However, this work is produce for everybody especially students in higher learning.
Mortgage banks are financial houses that act as specialist in providing money and facilities which encourage people, business firms to get their own houses without first saving the fund required. Housing is one of the important factors that determines urban firms and constitute the single most serous problems facing large cities in Nigeria today. In the 1950s the need to finance housing in Nigeria remained so small, mainly because of lo urbanization level.
The buoyancy of the Nigeria economy in the 1970s and the uneven spatial distribution of industrial development, accelerated the rate of urbanization in Nigeria. The hereto uncontrolled and unplanned urbanization forms. There exist today a yawning gap between the demand and supply of decent accommodation. The consequence of excess demand over supply, was high rent and the growth of informal rationing system which discriminated against the poor to the extent that over half of the urban population in Nigeria live in slump.
Against this background and considering the fact that housing provides the physical frame work in which man's, human, social economic and natural resources and realized, entrenched and integrate; it becomes obvious that adequate housing deserves great attention.In realization of the importance attached to housing the federal Government of Nigeria established the federal mortgage back of Nigeria in the year 1977 to take over the Assets and liabilities of the Nigeria Building society (NBS), which had been in operation in the country. Perhaps the federal mortgage bank of Nigeria had the initial capital of N20 Million and was later received to N 150 million in the year 1979.
4. Internal financial management constraints.
LACK OF ADEQUATE FINANCE: Lack of adequate finance constitutes a fundamental center-piece without as well organized an efficient housing system. Nigeria present housing financial system is severely under-developed and ill-equipped to mobilize and channel saving to the housing section. This is because it is difficult to mobilize substantial financial resources for channeling fund into housing sector.
HIGH RATE OF INFLATION: High rate of inflation is a problem to federal mortgage finance. Inflation has effected all sector of the economy especially building materials. It also happens that when a customer applies for a housing loan from federal mortgage finance, this will take more than six month before approving loan to the loan applicant. This cumbersome process for obtaining housing or property loan from most of the mortgage finance houses in Nigeria leads to increase in the value of the project so that the loan sector will be tempted to divert the loan to another purpose.
INADEQUATE INFRACTRUCTURE FACILITIES: inadequate infrastructure facilities create a very problem to federal mortgage finance. Some state in Nigeria most of the branch offices are located in places where there is no accessible road, no electricity etc. in view of these, most of the workers refuse going on transfer to such areas.
Internal to the bank, was lack of central cash flow in the area of Assets management and accounting operation which always restricted the banks ability to maintain a sound financial position. There was unregulated disbursement of funds which affected the liquidity position of the bank adversely.
There are reasons that motivate the establishment of federal Mortgage bank of Nigeria. These reasons helps to improve the existence of mortgage institution Nigeria.
(1) To provide credit facilities to all mortgage institutions for transmission to individual borrowers at subsidized rates.
(3) To accept deposit from the public through savings account facilities.
The federal mortgage institution plays a vital role in the economy especially in financing housing. In realization of the importance attached to housing. In realization of the importance attached to housing, the federal government of Nigeria established the federal mortgage bank of Nigeria in the year 1977 to take over the assets and liabilities of the Nigeria Building society which was the first mortgage bank in the country.The provision of long term facilities to mortgage institution in the country at such rates and upon such terms as may determine by the board in accordance with the policy directed by the federal executives council being rates and terms designed to enable the mortgage institution to grant comparable facilities to Nigeria individual desiring to acquire houses off their own.
To make provision with the approval of the commissioner, at competitive commercial rates of interest of credit facilities to commercial property developers, state developers and developers of others and other specialized type of building.
