Q: mail works, but sendmail doesn't! (Postfix) I installed postfix on a server and when I send an email with the sendmail command it doesn't get delivered, but when I send with the mail command it does get delivered.  What's worse, postfix logs claim it got delivered when using:
This is what the logs show for echo "test email" | sendmail sendmail@mailinator.com

Obviously it looks right.  But no mail ever gets delivered.  But this one: echo "test email 2" | mail bobo@mailinator.com works great!  The mail gets sent!
So I don't understand why in the world them mail command works, but not sendmail.  Any idea?

A: Ok, let's test it direct:

Hello. This is a test message.

This works, as the message can be seen in https://www.mailinator.com/v4/public/inboxes.jsp?to=sendmail
Your log shows that the message with id 38418406Ehas been sent as well, and that the remote server accepted this mail.
So just try it again, it will work.

A: Ok this is the weirderst thing ever.  This does not work:
echo "Subject: 1hello people" | sendmail bobo@mailinator.com

But this works:
echo "Subject: hello people
>this is the body" | sendmail bobo@mailinator.com

So for some reason if there is no body, just a subject, it does not work.  It claims it got sent, but somehow it isn't accepted or something.  I tried sending to other places besides mailinator and had the same issue.

Can Political Innovation Break Partisan Gridlock and Save Our Democracy?
Politics is the only industry where we're told less competition is good for the customer.

Watch now 1h 2m 3s
It seems paradoxical that the US, which touts itself as the bastion of democracy around the world, has a political system that, at the best of times, seems to jolt along in fits and bursts of efficacy. Katherine Gehl and Michael Porter wanted to understand why, and their research flips the script of the political system on its head.
Katherine Gehl
Political innovation activist
Michael Porter
Economist and researcher at Harvard Business School
Politics isn't broken, it's just badly designed
Bad government is cutting us off at the knees
Power play: how a small minority controls US politics
What if we think of political parties as businesses?
Is ranked choice voting the answer?
Jump to idea
The current US political system seems like a dysfunctional mess—if, on the rare occasion Congress manages to pass a consequential piece of legislation, it will almost assuredly be repealed when political control shifts from one of the two US political parties to another. But business leader Katherine Gehl wants you to understand the dysfunction isn't because the system is broken. Gehl says the political system is actually operating exactly how it's intended to:
So how can a political system be functioning properly yet deliver such dismal results for its citizens? The problem, according to Gehl, is that the needs of the US political system just don't align with the needs of the country. The political system is designed to safeguard itself, not to champion the public interest.
Economist and Harvard professor Michael Porter set out to understand why the US is struggling to maintain a high quality of life for its citizens and a robust economy, and the results were unequivocal: bad governance directly damages US social and economic progress. The ineffective US political system produces incoherent regulation, a restrictive tax code, and a substandard quality of life.
"We are not making any real progress on any of the key economic problems our economy faces, and we haven't made progress for decades."
— Michael Porter
Whether it's through rising infant mortality rates, difficult access to higher education, or subpar economic performance, Porter says the US and its citizens are being held back by the political-industrial complex. The US government is failing in its mandate, and it's seemingly unable to reform itself in the necessary ways.
Congressional primary elections are notoriously frequented by a small minority of highly partisan voters. Katherine Gehl explains how the primary system feeds the cycle of partisan gridlock in Congress:
When primaries are the only viable path to office in the US' two-party system, that means eventual Congresspeople have to vote to fulfill the wishes of their primary voters or they risk losing their party's nomination. And since Congresspeople also represent a political party whose main interest is self-preservation, these two factors combine to create an end result that doesn't prioritize the public good.
It's time to stop thinking of our political system as a civic institution, says Michael Porter, and to start thinking of it as an industry. He explains how the two political parties operate as businesses, and the effects that has on citizens:
"The rules have been made to serve partisans, not to solve problems," says Katherine Gehl. But the system that created our idiosyncratic rules also gives politicians the ability to change them. And that's how political innovations like ranked choice voting can restore healthy competition in politics. Ranked choice voting, which is starting to be used by more and more states and municipalities, drastically undercuts the ability of the two major political parties to control elections.
How it works: ranked choice voting
Ranked choice voting gives voters the option to rank multiple candidates on a ballot based on preference. If a candidate receives enough first preference votes in the first round, they are declared the winner. But if not, candidates are eliminated (like an instant runoff election) until one candidate receives enough votes to win.
Gehl argues that innovations that directly challenge the structure of our elections (like ranked choice voting) and our legislative process are the best hope we have. Some will take longer than others, and combating political entrenchment won't be easy. But, says Gehl, our democracy depends on it.

General Terms and Conditions, version 04/2019
§ 1 Deliveries
The following General Terms and Conditions exclusively apply to all deliveries and services provided by Cosmetic Service. In order to be effective, deviations from these conditions - in particular the applicability of the customer's purchasing conditions - require express written confirmation by Cosmetic Service.
§ 2 Price quotations and conclusion of contract
Prices are valid only with a written proposal by the managing director and a project leader, or by 2 project leaders. Deliveries abroad may be subject to customs duties, taxes, shipping costs and fees, which are not included in the total price shown. Orders become binding only upon a written confirmation by Cosmetic Service. Verbal agreements are binding only if they are confirmed in writing by Cosmetic Service.
§ 3 Order quantities
Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, the ordered amount is deemed to be an approximate indication of quantity. Deviations of 10% upwards or downwards are permitted. This also applies to partial deliveries from call-offs.
§ 4 Assemblies and raw materials
In the event that the customer specifies the procurement of assemblies, assembly parts, and raw, auxiliary, or process materials, the customer is obliged to accept and pay in full for the assembled packages, assembly parts, and raw, auxiliary, or process materials provided by the sub-suppliers of Cosmetic Service, and indeed within a specified period:
- for once-off orders, within 2 weeks of delivery of the finished product;
- for call-off or blanket orders, after 2 weeks following the end of the agreed duration or quantity.
Cosmetic Service accepts no liability for the quality and characteristics of the assemblies, assembly parts, and raw, auxiliary, or process materials.
§ 5 Prices and payment conditions
In general, value added tax and excise duty at the legal rates shall be added to the prices of Cosmetic Service. The invoiced price is payable without deduction upon delivery of the goods, unless something to the contrary was specifically agreed.
§ 6 Customs duties
For deliveries to areas outside of Germany, the customer is responsible for the customs duties, their processing, and the liability for their fulfilment.
§ 7 Due date, arrears, ban on offsetting and withholding
Cosmetic Service reserves the right to invoice interest for payments due or in arrears, at the legally permitted rate. In the event of arrears, Cosmetic Service also has the right to claim further damages for arrears. If arrears in payment are not made good within an appropriate grace period, then Cosmetic Service also has the right to withdraw from the contract or to claim damages for non-fulfilment; this also applies in particular to agreed but not yet executed follow-up business. The customer has a right to withhold or offset only with respect to such counterclaims which are determined to be undisputed or of legal force; this does not apply to counterclaims arising from the same contractual relationship.
§ 8 Retention of ownership
Until complete payment including interest and costs, or until the complete redemption of bills of exchange or cheques given for this, the delivered goods remain in the ownership of Cosmetic Service. To secure the demands, until complete payment the customer transfers to Cosmetic Service the customer's claims arising against third parties from the resale of the goods.
§ 9 Ability to pay
If the customer's ability to pay deteriorates between the receipt of the order confirmation and the delivery, or if it subsequently becomes known to Cosmetic Service that there are serious doubts about the customer's ability to pay, then Cosmetic Service has the right to demand early payment or payment in advance. If the customer does not fulfil such a demand, then Cosmetic Service has the right to withhold outstanding deliveries or to withdraw from the contract.
§ 10 Delivery periods
Unless otherwise agreed, the specified delivery periods and deadlines of Cosmetic Service are always deemed to be approximate, because of procurement of raw materials and packaging.
§ 11 Changes to orders and deviations
If the customer requires a change to an order after the order confirmation has been issued, then the delivery period starts only from the written confirmation of the change by Cosmetic Service. Deviations in quantities, content, weights, and colour tones caused by Cosmetic Service are permitted within the scope of the deviations customary in the trade.
§ 12 Shipping
The shipping of all goods takes place at the expense and risk of the customer. If carriage-paid delivery is agreed, then Cosmetic Service is responsible for the cost of shipping, as far as the destination railway station for tariff purposes, or as far as the delivery address. In this case, the customer is responsible for incidental expenses such as cartage, receipt of goods, etc. If the customer so desires, then freight insurance can be taken out; the costs arising are charged to the customer.
§ 13 Packaging material
Costs for packaging material are invoiced separately, unless something to the contrary has been agreed.
§ 14 Defects
a) The characteristics of the delivered goods are deemed to be approved if an approval sample has been approved in writing (e-mail, fax, or letter).
b) If an approval sample inspection was performed, then liability for defects is excluded, if the customer could have recognised them when the approval sample was inspected carefully.
c) In the event of defects Cosmetic Service is liable, as per the legal provisions, at its choice for cancellation of contract, loss, or replacement, as long as the goods under complaint are returned to Cosmetic Service.
d) The liability of Cosmetic Service for damages in relation to defects is based on § 15.
e) Defect liability claims lapse upon the expiry of the shelf life of the contracted products or 12 months after their delivery, depending on which timepoint arises first.
§ 15 Liability
a) For all claims for compensation of damages and expenses directed against Cosmetic Service because of breach of duty for which it is responsible, regardless of the legal basis, Cosmetic Service is liable in the event of slight negligence only if there is a breach of significant obligation which endangers the purpose of the contract. Otherwise, the liability of Cosmetic Service for slight negligence is excluded.
b) In the event of liability as per a) and liability without negligence, then Cosmetic Service is liable only for the typical and foreseeable damages. The assertion of wasted expenses by the customer is not permissible.
c) Cosmetic Service is not liable for the suitability of the goods for the purposes intended by the customer. Technical advice is provided to the best knowledge of Cosmetic Service. Because the actual application lies outside the influence of Cosmetic Service, and its circumstances are not foreseeable, written and verbal instructions or proposals can be issued only unbindingly. These do not relieve the customer from inspecting the products himself for their suitability for the intended purposes and processes. Cosmetic Service is liable only under section a) for advice which is provided or not provided.
d) The exclusion of liability as per the previous sections applies equally with respect to the institutions, legal representatives, managing and non-managing employees, and other vicarious agents of Cosmetic Service.
e) All claims against Cosmetic Service for damages and compensation claims lapse 12 months after delivery of the goods; in the event of tortious liability, such claims lapse 12 months from knowledge or grossly negligent ignorance about the circumstances forming the basis of the claim and about the person of the obligor. This does not apply to malice or to the cases listed in section f).
f) For assumption of a warranty of condition or for fraudulent concealment of a defect, the provisions in the above sections and in section e) do not apply to strict liability if liability exists for loss of life, bodily injury or damage to the health.
g) If goods delivered by Cosmetic Service are transported, either by the customer himself or by Cosmetic Service, in receptacles procured by the customer, Cosmetic Service is then liable only if Cosmetic Service has stated in writing the compatibility between the goods manufactured by Cosmetic Service and the receptacles. If the customer has not requested that the compatibility between the packaging material and the filled product is tested, the liability of Cosmetic Service is excluded.
h) Events of force majeure, strike, interruptions of operations, lack of raw material, state interventions, etc., for which Cosmetic Service is not responsible, absolve Cosmetic Service of any obligations. In these cases, Cosmetic Service also has the right to fully or partly withdraw from the contract. The customer can derive no claim for damages from this.
§ 16 Damage, loss, or destruction during packaging
Cosmetic Service is liable for damage, loss, or destruction of the customer's own packaging materials or packaging components which are stored at Cosmetic Service, only if Cosmetic Service causes these through gross negligence or malice.
§ 17 Confidentiality
Cosmetic Service and the customer undertake to maintain the strictest confidentiality about the collaboration and all information, and not to pass this on to third parties.
The obligation does not apply to information:
a) which becomes or has become publicly known without neglect of duty by Cosmetic Service or an authorised person, and therefore counts as state of the art;
b) which Cosmetic Service or its legal predecessor already knew when the contract was concluded, independent of the customer and outside of any contractual obligations or confidentiality agreements with third parties, because it was generally known;
c) for test institutes (e.g. for microbiology, safety assessments, epicutaneous testing, etc.);
d) for official bodies.
The party which claims that the information was already generally known must prove that this was the case.
§18 Place of jurisdiction, place of execution, and applicable law
The place of jurisdiction and place of execution for both parties is Frankfurt am Main. However, Cosmetic Service also has the right to sue the customer at his general place of jurisdiction. The law of Germany applies to all deliveries and services provided by Cosmetic Service.
§ 19 Partial ineffectiveness
If any of the individual previous clauses are or become ineffective, then all other clauses continue to retain their validity.
§ 20 Privailing German version
These General Terms and Conditions shall be interpreted according to German interpretation of law. If the legal meaning of a translation differs from the German legal meaning, the German meaning shall prevail.

Les 20K de Paris
Sunday October 10th, 2021
Distance: 20k
The 20 Kilometers de Paris (Paris 20 km) is an annual road running competition over 20 kilometers which takes place on the streets of Paris, France in October. First held in 1979, the race attracts top level international competitors and holds IAAF Bronze Label Road Race status.
The competition was the idea of Michel Jazy, a French runner who was an Olympic medallist and two-time European Champion. The first edition was held through a joint effort by the Council of Paris and ASCAIR (the French Airforce's body for sport). The race has been organized under the auspices of ASCAIR since then.
The course for the competition has a double looped, figure 8 style. The start point of the race is in the Trocadéro near the Eiffel Tower and runners then cross the River Seine over the Pont d'Iéna. It heads in an anti-clockwise loop through Bois de Boulogne before completing a smaller, clockwise loop along the banks of the Seine. The finish point is the Musée du quai Branly. The original race distance was 20.3 km, but this was reduced to 20 km in 1981. As a result of poor race organisation at the starting point, athlete's times from 1981 to 1992 are not accepted for record purposes; unusually quick times were recorded as some runners began the race a whole minute before the official starter's gun had been fired.
The men's and women's course records for the 20 km race are held by Kenyan athletes: Evans Cheruiyot completed the distance in 57:19 minutes in 2005 and Sarah Chepchirchir's time of 1:05:03 hours was set in 2013.
The race organizers abide by their own charter of ethics which – aside from outlining typical races rules and safety issues – includes the aims of increasing inclusion of women in the sport of running and promotion of environmentally friendly attitudes.

On Sunday the 28th of October, 1979, at 1:00pm, 8,000 runners took off from the starting line of the first «20 Kilomètres de Paris», organized jointly by the Paris City Hall and ASCAIR, the Air Force's Athletic and Cultural Association.
The race was the idea of French athlete Michel Jazy.
Since that time, ASCAIR has continued to organize what has become one of the most popular races in France. More than 22,000 runners took the start of the 30th edition of the race on the 12th of October, 2009.
Since 1979, the race has been sponsored by the Air Force, and organized by their Paris-based Athletic Association.
Since 1979, the «20 Kilomètres de Paris» has started from the foot of the Eiffel Tower.
ince 1979, more than 800 volunteers have given their time and energy every year to provide the best possible services to runners. 800 volunteers whose motivation never fails, and without whom the atmosphere of the course would not be what it is today.
Since 1979, the race has been led by incredible athletes. The course record has improved by over 4 minutes, and the race is now run in less than 58 minutes.

What is Transpersonal Psychology? How did it begin? How has it evolved, taught and practiced today? Our expert panelists will share their personal stories, observations and experiences… from being with movers and shakers at the birth of the transpersonal movement, to how it's taught in academia and practiced in the field today.
Transpersonal psychology is sometimes referred to as the 4th "school" of psychology which reached beyond Abraham Maslow's humanist framework by integrating the spiritual and transcendent aspects of the human experience with the framework of modern psychology. As a "spiritual psychology", transpersonal is defined as "experiences in which the sense of identity or self extends beyond (trans) the individual or personal to encompass wider aspects of humankind, life, psyche or cosmos".
From its beginnings in the late 60's with Abraham Maslow, Stanislav Grof and Anthony Sutich, issues considered in transpersonal psychology today include spiritual self-development, self beyond the ego, peak experiences, mystical experiences, systemic trance, spiritual crises, spiritual evolution, religious conversion, altered states of consciousness, spiritual practices, and other sublime and/or unusually expanded experiences of living.
What has been your experience with the Transpersonal? Discussion and Q&A with the Interface community following the panel will be most welcomed.
Deborah Bowman, Ph.D. Professor, Dean, Graduate School of Counseling and Psychology, Naropa University Boulder. Ph.D., Clinical Psychology, Union Institute and University, Certificate Gestalt Therapy, Gestalt Institute of the Rockies, BA Speech Communications and Human Relations, Kansas University.
Deborah is the founder of the Transpersonal Counseling Psychology and the Wilderness Therapy programs at Naropa University. She is a licensed psychologist and certified Gestalt therapist and also a trainer with the Boulder Psychotherapy Institute, offering post graduate education and supervision. Deborah has served as president of Boulder Graduate School, worked for Boulder County Hospice and Boulder County Social Services, and instructed with the National Outdoor Leadership School. She is a meditation instructor with Nalandabodhi Boulder. Deborah is author of The Female Buddha: Discovering the Heart of Liberation and Love, The Luminous Buddha: Images and Words and co-author of When Your Spouse Comes Out, published by the GLBT Family Series with Haworth Press.
Deborah's interests in transpersonal began in 1985 when she began working with a Jungian oriented psychotherapist and later started her dissertation in 1987 on Jung's dream painting process. Founding the Transpersonal Counseling Psychology program at Naropa University accelerated her studies as she became responsible for guiding the program as chair and taught Transpersonal Psychology for many years. Angeles Arrien was Deborah's most significant transpersonal mentor helping her to also formulate new programming at Naropa in conjunction with the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology in California.
Dominie Cappadonna, PhD, CT received her Doctorate in Transpersonal Psychology in 1976, and offers a post-doctoral practice as a Transpersonal psychotherapist, Ecopsychologist and Death Awareness Educator under her work called, "Radiant Living~Luminous Dying®: Let your Life Shine!
Her interests in transpersonal began by bearing witness with the pregnancy and tending the birth and first steps of the transpersonal movement in the early 70's.
At the time she worked for the Association of Humanistic Psychology and served on the administrative board for HPI-Saybrooke's Transpersonal doctoral program, and received her doctorate in the first graduating class. She studied with humanistic, Jungian, transpersonal teachers and Buddhist masters who infused the field with a variety of views and practices. She taught Transpersonal Psychology in universities and as a psychotherapist loves to explore with clients how to access within a deep resource of undeniable, unsurpassable wisdom and guidance, as key to a liberated life.
Barry Erdman, LCSW, DCSW, Private Psychotherapy Practice, Boulder, Interface Coordinator, Master's of Social Work, University of Denver, 1983.
Barry is a licensed clinical social worker and diplomate of clinical social work in private practice since 1979. He has been the coordinate for Interface for more than 30 years.
His interests in all things transpersonal began as an undergraduate psychology student at Brooklyn College NY, in the early 1970's when he volunteered at Maimonides Medical Center sleep lab, devoted to parapsychology experiments studying dreams and telepathy under psychiatrist Montgue Ullman and Dr. Stanley Krippner. During that period, he also pursued his study and practice of meditation and yoga, eastern psychology and spiritual communities. In the summer of 1974, he attended the start up of Naropa Institute in Boulder, which then led to a 2.5 year solo, world wide spiritual pilgrimage with a focus on both Vedanta Hinduism and Theravadin Buddhist practices. In 1980-81 he worked at the Association for Transpersonal Psychology in Palo Alto, CA. His transpersonal interests continued in the 80's with his investigation of clinical hypnosis, eastern psychology and mystical experience. He has been coordinator for Interface since the mid 80's, and continues to incorporate transpersonal perspectives as part of his psychotherapy practice with adults, couples and families.

Hey Leigh, just been looking through your website and it is stunning! You have a fantastic eye for the details. Do you use much artificial light when it comes to your shots?
Thank you! I use mostly natural light.


When it comes to finding places to stay on our travels, there's only one thing that beats showing up to find the place we've booked is a beautifully feathered nest. It's turning up to discover that our host is a famous artist. That's what happened when we arrived in the village of Franklin in Southern Tasmania earlier this month.
We'd booked a few nights in a lovely cabin in the hills overlooking the Huon River, which we planned to use as a base for exploring Tasmania's remote southwest. But the weather deteriorated and our original plan quickly unravelled. Instead, thanks to an amazing stroke of luck, we got a fascinating and completely unexpected introduction to Southern Tasmania's vibrant and quirky art scene.
Our host was Richard Clements, a world-renowned glass artist who creates jewel-like artworks from his garden studio, just 50 metres from the cabin where we were staying. He says he's retired, but you'd never know it. He's absolutely in love with glass and both the technical and artistic process, and I suspect he'll be making beautiful treasures until his dying day.
We watched Richard at work in his workshop, where he spends most of his time these days making intricate borosilicate perfume bottles, which he sells through his website. It's an extraordinary place, filled to the brim with precious objects that Richard can't bear to part with.
Me: This perfume bottle is gorgeous. My friend would love it. Can I buy it, Richard?
Richard: Oh, that one. It is nice, isn't it! Sorry, you can't have that one. I'm keeping it. Have another look. You can choose anything on this shelf.
Me (a bit disappointed, but still dazzled by what seemed to be endless choices): Ooo, look at this! I like this one even better – it reminds me of a dewy meadow. How much is it?
Richard: Oh, I should have said everything on this shelf except that one. You see, I used a new technique when I made that one, and that's the last…so it's not for sale. I'm hanging on to it.
Me: So, probably not this one either, then…?
In the end, I did manage to select three lovely perfume bottles that he was willing to sell, but I had to practically prise them out of his hands and then run like the wind. It's understandable, because for Richard, his glass is his passion, and his work is his life. He began working with glass as a 16-year old apprentice, and he's never stopped since. And he's truly amazing to watch at work – such skill and precision, honed during and since his early days making scientific glass instruments in the UK.
Wendy, Richard's wife, informed us that their neighbour, Linda Chee, is also an artist. From her beautiful modern studio (where she, her photographer husband and her two adorable dogs are living while they build their house on the adjacent land), she creates unique, eco-dyed textiles.
The process of eco-dying is as intriguing as the finished results. Linda collects eucalyptus leaves from the surrounding trees and presses them into natural fabrics, which are then wound up, tied with string, and boiled in aluminium and iron cauldrons until the dyes are released. Once the colours are fast, she unwraps the pieces to reveal beautiful patterned textiles, which look like they are still part of the woodland. They look, smell and feel heavenly: impressionist paintings, fragrant as eucalyptus leaves after rain; soft as baby cashmere. In fact, the fabrics Linda uses are as important as the processing – they're all natural, and mostly knitted by Linda from wool produced from sheep that are shepherded by another local woman.
The finished results are unlike any clothing I've ever worn. I tried on so many beautiful pieces, and I would have bought several if I thought I could fit them in our over-packed Land Rover. (It's virtually bursting with clobber, unfortunately!) So in the end logic won the day and I settled for a couple of Linda's lovely scarves, which pack down into a tiny space. As Al will confirm, I literally haven't stopped wearing the summer weight one since! Here are a couple of iPhone pictures of me wearing it on our scramble up to the top of Hollow Mountain, in the Grampians, Victoria. Initially, I wasn't sure if the earthy tones suited me, but now I love it. I'm planning to order a couple of Linda's beautiful knits from her website, Gecko Strands, when we eventually settle down again.
So, on our last day, we took their advice and headed across to MONA, which is just outside Hobart. On the way, we stopped off at Huon's Apple Shed and sampled quite a few delicious artisan ciders – works of art of the liquid variety! To be honest, after our lengthy tasting session, I think we would have appreciated just about any artwork, uncritically!
But actually, there's something all-consuming about MONA that makes it sparkle, whether or not you like what you see and whether or not you're completely sober. From the moment we walked through its mirrored entrance and headed down into its dark labyrinth, it sucked us in and mesmerised us until it spat us out at the other end, wondering where we were, what we'd just witnessed, and whether it was still the same day. Either that was some strong cider, or MONA is a very special place.
MONA's story is unique in Australia. The museum is vast, glitzy and privately owned, set up by an eccentric Tasmanian art collector, David Walsh, who made his fortune from gambling. His view is that art should be accessible, fun, and even shocking – a "subversive adult Disneyland" – a goal his museum absolutely achieves. It's not everyone's cup of tea, though. As I walked around the galleries, I spent some time watching peoples' reactions to the exhibits, some of which were sexually explicit, others which were just garish, ugly or bad taste. A lot of visitors just looked uncomfortable, whereas others grabbed their partners or kids and marched towards the exit. We really enjoyed it though – both of us saw artworks that we either loved or detested, to the point that we felt like we'd been on a visual rollercoaster by the time we left.
When we re-emerged back into the sunlight, we reluctantly set off on the road again, sad to be leaving Southern Tasmania, with its vibrant art scene and spectacular wilderness (so much of which we hadn't managed to explore). But our regrets quickly faded as we headed up the Midlands Highway and on to new adventures: through the historic town of Oatlands, with its topiary animals; onward to the Freycinet Peninsula, with its stunning beaches and striking landscapes; and then on to kitsch but fun Sheffield, with its brightly coloured murals and street art. Everywhere we went, it struck us that Tasmania does things its own way, celebrating tradition, but embracing the quirky, the experimental and the new. We loved that about Tasmania. It feels quite different to mainland Australia, and in a good way.
Great post Naan. Tassie is a pretty funky place.

And she was right! Eventually, after doing it every day, it became so second nature I could do it on autopilot—which left me more time to spend on other, more challenging projects.
Since this lesson was so valuable to me, I decided to approach every new project I was handed by asking this one simple question: How long should this take me while I'm learning it and how long once I'm doing it routinely?
This opens up so many doors for you—both in terms of your productivity and how you work with your manager. For one thing, it helps you put the task into perspective. If you know it'll take two hours, you can set aside that amount of time when you first tackle it. On the other hand, if your boss says it should only take 20 minutes, you know you don't have to clear an entire afternoon.
But the biggest benefit perhaps is that it helps to highlight any gaps between what your manager's expectations are and how you're interpreting them. For example, if they say it shouldn't take more than 10 minutes, but you find yourself spending several hours on it, that's cause for concern.
Maybe they forgot to mention shortcuts you could take. Maybe you didn't quite understand the instructions. Or, maybe your boss has never done the project before themselves so they're unaware of how time-consuming it is. Whatever the case, it's important to communicate that it's taking longer than predicted.
That's why knowing this timeframe from the get-go helps you prioritize, while also holding your boss accountable. Not to mention, it's an easy way to "manage up"—you can set guidelines for how you manage your time, and your boss can keep track of how quickly you're picking up new skills and getting comfortable with certain projects.
Plus, isn't it a great feeling to know exactly what you're getting into? I certainly think so.


September 1, 1939, is forever etched in the history books as the day the world went to war. The world would never be the same again, and it started here with Danzig/Gdansk as the opening gambit in Hitler's vile master plan. The city and its people were to pay an incredibly high price and once war was over, there was little of the city or few of its people left. Many of the places involved in key events during the war have either been rebuilt or their remains preserved and the city is home to the Museum of the Second World War built as a further attempt to preserve the memory of what began here for future generations to learn from.

China: From Centrally Planned Economy to "Socialism with Chinese Characteristics"
FROM THE LECTURE SERIES: THE FALL AND RISE OF CHINA
December 21, 2021 History
By Richard Baum, Ph.D., University of California, Los Angeles
Back in 1962, with China still suffering from the excesses of the Great Leap Forward, Deng Xiaoping had deeply offended Mao by arguing that economic performance was more important than ideological purity. Now after twenty years, Mao was dead, his economic policies had collapsed, and Deng's willingness to experiment with new forms of economic activity was in evidence everywhere.
The introduction of small-scale private commerce in China's cities led to the birth of China's getihu—self-employed individuals and households. (Image: lzf/Shutterstock)
Introduction of Small-scale Private Commerce
One of Deng's experiments involved the introduction of small-scale private commerce in China's cities.
Until the early 1980s, all private commercial activity was strictly prohibited in urban China. It was openly derided as a "vestige of capitalism". But now, with as many as 10 million "rusticated" youths flooding back into Chinese cities from a decade of enforced exile in the countryside, massive numbers of young people had little or nothing to do. In this situation, government leaders decided that small-scale private commerce could help relieve the pressures of burgeoning unemployment.
Thus were born the China's getihu—self-employed individuals and households.
China's Centrally Planned Economy
Under socialist ownership, the prices of all goods and services in the urban economy were set by the state plan. Sales clerks were state employees: their jobs, wages and benefits were guaranteed for life under the iron rice bowl policy. Their firms didn't need to turn a profit or provide high-quality goods and services. And since all sales revenues were remitted directly back to the state, there was no incentive for enterprise managers to improve the quality of their product or their service. Staff employees didn't care, because they didn't have to. They put in their time and picked up their paychecks.
That, in a nutshell, was the story of China's centrally planned economy, as it was played out daily in hundreds of thousands of state enterprises, large and small.
This is a transcript from the video series The Fall and Rise of China. Watch it now, on Wondrium.
Challenge to State Monopolies
However, now the getihu had begun to expose the endemic weaknesses of the planned economy. And it did not take long for enterprising young men and women to begin to challenge state monopolies throughout the service sector, from photography and fast food to haircutting and taxicabs.

Wherever private challengers arose, either to contest existing state monopolies or to fill visible gaps in the service sector, consumers were the winners.
To give just one example, between 1982 and 1986, the quality of food served in many Beijing restaurants improved noticeably, as enterprising getihu began setting up fast-food stalls and sidewalk cafes around the city, drawing customers away from established state restaurants by offering better service and better food at competitive prices.
By the middle of the decade, state restaurants that were losing out in competition with self-employed providers were warned that the government would no longer automatically cover their losses. If they couldn't turn a profit, they'd face the consequences—including the possibility of closing their doors.
Slowly, state restaurants began paying more attention to customer satisfaction, and their food began to improve.

Urban Economic Innovations
After 30 years of heavy-handed state socialism, China reformers were gradually introducing a broad range of urban economic innovations.
In addition to permitting small-scale private commerce, the fiscal system was now decentralized to encourage provinces and localities to display greater entrepreneurial initiative by allowing them to retain a significant share of their own revenues as income, as profit.
In the countryside, of course, agriculture had been decollectivized several years earlier. By the end of 1979, farmland was being routinely divided up and leased out to individual households, and free markets were thriving. By 1982, decollectivization was virtually complete, and the people's communes were officially disbanded.

Resistance to Change
Reform took longer in China's cities. Unlike rural areas, where there were no basic income guarantees or state welfare benefits for peasants, in cities the iron rice bowl policy provided every state employee with a guaranteed lifetime job, as well as major food and housing subsidies and free health care, education, and welfare benefits.
Understandably, many state employees were reluctant to exchange these familiar, tangible benefits for the vague and unknown world of market competition, profit-motivation, and the attendant risks of unemployment.
Resistance to change was widespread among urban state workers. But it was even more intense among Communist Party traditionalists who continued to believe in a modicum of centralized state planning. To them, Deng's economic reforms smacked of the dreaded "C-word": "capitalism". And despite the many failures of socialism under Mao, most Chinese remained highly resistant to the very idea of capitalism.
Socialism with Chinese Characteristics
Recognizing that the word "capitalism" produced intensely negative responses in China, Deng Xiaoping cleverly coined a new and more neutral term to describe his reform program. He called it "Socialism with Chinese characteristics".
To put a more appealing face on urban economic reform, and to provide new incentives to induce people to work harder in order to earn (and keep) more money for themselves, the new Chinese Premier, Zhao Ziyang, shifted the traditional function of many state-owned factories away from concentration on heavy industrial manufacturing to the production of consumer durables and luxury goods.
Gradually, a new culture of personal consumption was taking root in China, first in coastal cities and then spreading to the interior. "Liberate the productive forces", was the reformers' frequently repeated mantra. "Let some people to get rich before others," exhorted Deng Xiaoping in 1984, in so doing, implicitly repudiating the Maoist ethos of egalitarian austerity.
By the middle of the decade, a generation of newly affluent entrepreneurs, known as wanyuan hu or "10,000 yuan households", had made their appearance in China. These were China's first millionaires.
Common Questions about China's Centrally Planned Economy and "Socialism with Chinese Characteristics"
Q: Who were China's getihu?
China's getihu were the self-employed individuals and households in China. They came into existence when the government leaders decided that small-scale private commerce could help relieve the pressures of burgeoning unemployment.
Q: Why was the fiscal system decentralized by China reformers?
China's fiscal system was decentralized to encourage provinces and localities to display greater entrepreneurial initiative by allowing them to retain a significant share of their own revenues as income, as profit.
Q: Why did Deng Xiaoping name his reform program "Socialism with Chinese characteristics"?
Recognizing that the word "capitalism" produced intensely negative responses in China, Deng cleverly coined a new and more neutral term to describe his reform program, calling it "Socialism with Chinese characteristics".

Spoiler alert: We've updated our website! OK, anyone with two eyes, at least one finger, and a nose for the best in green news can tell we've launched our latest major redesign — and we think it's our best yet. The photos and videos are bigger and bolder. The text is crisper and larger. The orange is orangier!
Chances are you've seen it already: We introduced our sleek, distraction-free new look to mobile and tablet users earlier this year. And now we've brought this responsive design to our desktop. Grist looks stellar no matter what size device you view it on.
This gradual extreme makeover reflects how experimentation, constant trial and error, and user experience remain core to our mission of making sure all eyes are on the planet. We asked for your feedback, and when you said, "Get the hell out of the way so I can read," we did our best to remove all clutter so you can focus on our irreverent blend of in-depth reporting, green advice, and apocalyptic comic relief.
What else is new on the site? Grist now goes to infinity (and beyond). When you reach the end of every thought-provoking or giggle-inducing post, our "infinite scroll" brings the homepage display right to you, showing every recent article we've published, as far back as you want to go. Your next favorite story is just a click away. It isn't magic, but it sure looks like it.
I'd like to take an extra second to thank tech and design wizards Nathan Letsinger, Mignon Khargie, and Ben Shewmaker (and ex-wizard Ben Brooks) for their tireless work and boundless creativity in making this all happen. We're lucky to have them.
But our work has just begun. We've still got a few rough edges to polish (look, there's one now!), and more new features in the pipeline. Please take our poll and tell us what you think of our redesign, and let us know what more we could do to make Grist even better.
P.S. Remember to follow us on Facebook and Twitter, and subscribe to our emails — and tell all your friends to do the same!


I served my mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ten years ago. In thinking back on those life-changing two years that I spent in the Philippines, I have thought that it will be a fun way to remember my experience by reviewing my journals, letters, and other materials from that experience over the next two years. I'll be reviewing them "as they happen," and I'll post at least weekly about what I'm remembering and share some of my journal entries and letters with you.
My goal in this is to help others learn about what a mission is like, why I served one, how this experience shaped me as a person, and why the Church and more importantly the Gospel of Jesus Christ means so much to me.

A Salute To Bonnie Terrentine
At the end of last school year, Bonnie Terrentine stepped down from her role as CIS after school coordinator at Lincoln International Studies. She officially retired (well kind of, keep reading) from CIS after 16 years.
Bonnie first began working for CIS in 2003. Prior to that, she, along with Fred Coker, had served as a coordinator for the Kalamazoo Area Academic Achievement Program, also known as KAAAP. (Initiated in 1992 by the Kalamazoo Chamber of Commerce, KAAAP matched elementary students to a mentor committed to seeing the young person through high school graduation. KAAAP eventually merged with CIS.)
While Bonnie's last seven years have been at Lincoln, regardless of the titles she has held and the organizations she has served [KAAAP, KPS, and CIS], Bonnie has touched the lives of many children and families at many schools. When we asked her to list schools she has worked in over the years, she ticked off: Lincoln, Arcadia, Chime, Washington Writers' Academy, Vine Alternative, Hillside Middle School, Milwood Magnet Middle School, Kalamazoo Central High School, Loy Norrix High School, and Northglade Montessori Magnet School….oh, I'm probably missing a few! My work in these schools, I loved it!
Bonnie has now been in Kalamazoo longer than where she grew up, in Muskegon Heights. We're thankful that Bonnie and her husband Robert made the move to Kalamazoo so Bonnie could attend school. Bonnie receive a secretarial shorthand degree from Parsons Business School and a degree in elementary education from Western Michigan University. She also received, through an on-line program with Madison University, a degree specializing in early education.
Bonnie and her husband have four children: Melita, Tim, Aleesha, and Travis. They also are the proud grandparents of three.
We sat down with Bonnie, to learn how she is handling retirement, what she plans to do, and what advice she has for us.
Technically, you've retired from CIS.
Yes, but I was called out of retirement after only two months! It's on a temporary basis, though. I'm filling in for Prairie Ridge Elementary School's CIS after school coordinator who is on maternity leave.
I guess it's fair to say you are rocking a "working retirement."
When my youngest son, Travis, found out I was retiring, he said, "But mom, what are you going to do?" He doesn't have to worry now. When Linda [Thompson] called me in late July and asked if I would consider substituting later in the Fall when a staff went on maternity leave, it was easy to say yes because I love the work of CIS. Plus, the school is close to my home.
Here's a few words and phrases your CIS colleagues use to describe you: a good woman, dedicated, compassionate, great laugh, no nonsense, loving, passionate about kids succeeding, generous, and reliable. What do you have to say about that?
They didn't miss anything! [She laughs.]
Reflecting on your career with CIS, what are you most proud of?
I'm proud of the fact that I believe I did a good job, even in areas where I was weak. In those cases, I learned what I needed to do and I did it. I helped people and I accomplished a lot with families and kids. That's a strength of mine. At my retirement celebration, Pam [Kingery] said, "You set the bar high for kids and you let kids believe and know that if they work hard they can accomplish anything they want to."
What are you going to miss the most?
Of course, the children. That's why I took on the site coordinator position in the first place. The kids are what this work is all about.
What are you going to miss the least?
Doing the data part of the job while making sure kids get what they need. I know data is an important part of our work, but it's still a balancing act. It's challenging to find the time to do the data, but you squeeze it in when you can. It's about finding that balance, being able to take care of kids and families along with all the other requirements that allow us to keep the program going so we can keep taking care of kids and families!
You have been a voice that consistently lifts up the important role of youth development workers (YDWs). You brought to our attention, people like Justina Franklin [read post here], shedding light on how YDWs in CIS afterschool program throughout Kalamazoo Public Schools help our children grow. You said that what they do is what we should all be about: caring and developing the best in all of our youth.
Oh, I've been so pleased with the combination of solid staff I've had the privilege of working with over the years. Like the CIS youth development workers at Lincoln, like Mrs. Elaine Willis, Pat Atkins, Talanda Ollie, and Dalah Jaber. Oh, they've all been wonderful to work with. All my staff did their jobs and forged great relationship with children. You can't ask for more!
What advice do you have for that next generation of CIS staff who follow in your footsteps?
Remember what the work is. Don't be out for self-gain. Remember, you are here to improve the quality of education and life for the students. Never lose sight of this.
I just finished God's Transforming Love. A friend of mine, Gwendolyn E. Google, wrote a significant portion of this book and it's about women, their griefs, struggles, and triumphs in life. She used to live here but lives in Nashville now. When she visited, she gave me a copy of her book. Before that, I read Courage to Soar. That's by the gymnast and Olympian, Simone Biles. I'm also a daily Bible reader. I assist with teaching Sunday school to children up to 4 years old at Bible Baptist Church.
Now that you are retired, what do you plan to do or see or experience more of?
I hope to travel and see more of the United States.
With your husband?
Hopefully he'll want to join me. [She laughs.] I already did one my bucket lists.
Mind telling us what that is?
I took doula training and completed it. Did you know there are pre-birth and post-pregnancy doulas? I did the pre-birth and now I'm going to take the post-pregnancy training this Spring. I know what it's like to be nervous and not know what to do once you're home with your new baby, so I think that helping after the pregnancy will be more my thing. I'm really excited about that.
Thank you for your time, Bonnie. Not only for this interview, but for your years of service to students in the Kalamazoo Public Schools, including the last sixteen years with CIS in which you have dedicated yourself to helping kids stay in school and succeed in life. We salute you!

Doing What It Takes To Get Her Promise Back
When JacQuese Steele graduated from Loy Norrix High School in 2008, she headed off to Michigan State University, fully intending to use the gift of The Kalamazoo Promise® to obtain a degree.
Bonnie Terrentine, CIS After School Coordinator for Lincoln International Studies and former Kalamazoo Area Academic Achievement Program (KAAAP) staff knew JacQuese as a young student at Chime Elementary, then Milwood Elementary, Milwood Magnet Middle School, and then Loy Norrix High School. "She was extremely bright," recalls Bonnie. "Talented, too. Even when she faced obstacles, she kept on going. She's very resilient, a pioneer, really, as she was the first in her family to head off to college. I remember she had really supportive grandparents. She was just a great kid."
JacQuese recalls Ms. Terrentine fondly and says that when she was in fourth grade, the KAAAP mentor she was connected to, Carol McGlinn, changed her future. (Initiated in 1992 by the Kalamazoo Chamber of Commerce, KAAAP was later absorbed by CIS. It matched elementary students to a mentor committed to seeing the young person through high school graduation.)
JacQuese started doing better in school thanks to the tutoring support she received from her mentor. "I wouldn't be able to read if it wasn't for her [Ms. McGlinn]. She saved my reading life. She saved me."
Yet, the transition from high school to college was challenging. "Going off to college was hard for me," recalls JacQuese. "My family loved me. They were in support of me going and said, 'Do it!' but that was it. I needed someone to guide me. I needed help with the how. I realize nobody has a blueprint for you but when you go to college you need a game plan. I felt like I just got dropped off. 'Do good,' they told me. Okay, but how? What are the steps I need to take to get through college?"
A talented woman with a variety of interests, JacQuese found herself changing direction frequently and switching majors. While at Michigan State, she studied Communications, Interdisciplinary Arts and Humanities, Religious Studies, Social Work, and Theater.
It was at the start of her fifth year of college, her degree in sight, that things began to unravel. JacQuese's grandfather, a great ally and whom she was very close to passed away on her first day back to school. To make matters worse, shortly thereafter, JacQuese was robbed. "My bank card was stolen and my entire bank account was wiped out. I was very depressed. I couldn't pay the rent. I didn't know what to do." So, when a new opportunity arose, JacQuese dropped out of college and headed to Atlanta to "chase my singer-songwriter dream." While JacQuese experienced some success with her musical career she ultimately determined "it ended up not being the opportunity for me that I thought it would be." As she puts it, "The music industry, well, let's just say snakes aren't always low in the grass."
Recently, JacQuese decided to return to Kalamazoo. Through Facebook, she connected with her former middle school math teacher, Diane Lang. They met for lunch, caught up, and talked about JacQuese's future. Afterwards, with JacQuese's blessing, Diane reached out to friend and Executive Director of Communities In Schools of Kalamazoo, Pam Kingery. Was there a way for JacQuese to get her The Kalamazoo Promise back?
And before September faded into October, JacQuese, with Diane Lang at her side, met with Bob Jorth, Executive Director of The Kalamazoo Promise®. Thanks to Bob, JacQuese got the information she needed and is now doing what it takes—including making a recent trip to Michigan State University—to finish what she started.
JacQuese couldn't ask for a better cheerleader at her side—and someone to help navigate the how questions all college students have—than Diane Lang.
"This kid has tons of talent and positive energy," says Diane. "She just needs to finish up her degree. I'm proud of her."
"This time, I'll be going back to college," says JacQuese, "just a little wiser."

HARARE - This evening, Zimbabwean football honours the country's best footballer for yet another year, or should we say, the best player depending on the region the sports writers who voted hail from.
Let's face it, without trying to pre-empt the events of tonight's awards ceremony, whose winner will only be known after the official announcement later today, certain journalists showed a shocking lack of independent approach during the selection process and demonstrated clear bias, which is a sad indictment of a supposedly civilised group of professionals.
I have never felt ashamed of being a journalist, but the scandalous behaviour and shameful conduct of fellow scribes, fuelled by an intense distrust and hatred for a club or region — have turned this once-prestigious award into the mix of farce and tragedy it is now — where regional and club alienation other than pure merit is the foremost criterion for selection.
As the fourth estate, journalists are supposed to be moral watchdogs which scrutinise the actions of organisations and society.
Certain cliques of journalists in Zimbabwe have dismally failed to play that role and instead are on the forefront of fuelling regional divisions, sadly so in a sport other countries use so well to unite people of different ethnic backgrounds.
Tragically, the voting pattern of this year's Soccer Stars awards, as on various occasions in the past, has attracted the ire of ordinary Zimbabweans who look up to journalists as a mirror of society.
Consequently, the image of the football reporting fraternity out there is not flattering, and respect can be very difficult to regain.
I will not mourn if journalists are removed from the voting panel in future for bringing the esteemed annual awards into disrepute, but at the same time I will feel sorry for those who have, thankfully, remained firm in their fairness and professionalism when others have unashamedly thrown ethics out of the window.
