Here's an experiment to try—take a moment to think about your company's target audience. Think of all the people who will be reading your social media posts, browsing your blog, or clicking from one page to another on your website. Try to visualize them. Chances are, you can't get very specific. Unless you've done the research and assembled it into a coherent and usable format, your audience will remain unknowable to you. That's why developing clear buyer personas is one of the most important steps of the content marketing process.
A buyer persona is simply a description of a representative member of your target audience. Its purpose is to help you visualize your audience better so you can engage with them more effectively. You might choose to develop a single buyer persona for your company, or you might opt to create several different personas to represent all the different segments of your audience. If you're trying to hone your content marketing strategy, there's no better place to start than by focusing in on who your customers are.
You might wonder why you need to spend the time and energy required to come up with buyer personas at all. Wouldn't your time be better spent creating the actual content? The answer is that having clear buyer personas will help you plan and create better, more useful online content. The long-term benefits of creating buyer personas may not be obvious, but they are very real.
Having a buyer persona helps you create content that is relevant to your audience's interests, which is an essential part of inbound marketing. Once you know what your audience is looking for, you'll be able to gear your content toward those expectations—which means that your readers are more likely to become your customers.
Buyer personas also help you keep everybody in your company on the same page when it comes to your online content. When your entire team is clear on who your audience is and what they want, you will all be much better equipped to reach that audience effectively.
Developing specific buyer personas will help you narrow down your target audience. It's important to remember that not every person in the world is a potential customer—not realistically, at least. By defining your target audience and describing their interests, tastes, and needs, you'll be able to focus on the prospective customers who are most likely to be interested in your products or services.
At first, constructing an actual buyer persona may seem like an impossible task. Your audience may seem so vast and varied that you may feel hard-pressed to come up with a suitable description for a representative customer. Fortunately, it's not that difficult to put together the ingredients of a buyer persona.
Your first step should be to accumulate all the raw information you need to draw an accurate picture of a representative customer. You might get feedback from your sales team about their leads, or even talk directly to some of your customers to get a better sense of their interests. Having a form to fill out on your website can also be helpful in getting information about your audience.
Using this information, choose a segment of your audience—or your entire audience, if you prefer—and create a fictional customer. You'll need to come up with a few basics: a name, an occupation, a job title. If it's helpful, you can list an age, an educational background, a marital status, and other demographic information as well.
Next, start filling in the blanks, using the background information you've gathered about your customers to fill out your portrait of a typical customer. What are this person's responsibilities at his or her job? How large is their company? What social media platforms is he or she most active on?
Finally, you've reached the most pertinent part of the buyer persona—what motivates this representative customer's interest in your company? How did he or she find out about you? What would it take to prompt this customer to make a purchase decision? What sort of content does he or she like to read?
Once you've developed your first buyer persona, you can go on to create as many others as you need for your full range of products and services. The more specific a picture you can create of your likely audience, the better able you will be to create and distribute content that they will respond to.
If you want to retain the audience that you attract, it's imperative that you are able to provide plenty of smart, original content targeted to your readers' interests. Coming up with this content on a regular basis, however, is no simple task. Pennington Creative can provide you with the custom content you—or your clients—need, from email newsletters to animated videos to blog posts. If you'd like to learn more, contact us today!

Lots of people aim to make day-to-day self development one of their lifelong objectives, since they see the requirement to expand in all facets of their lives. What's depressing is that numerous do not think about the 3 important personal development aspects needed for healthy self development.
Yes, you heard me appropriate. Self development is very important, but the facets that you aim to grow in have to be right in order for it to be effective in your life. As well as I believe this holds true for anyone.
Self-awareness simply implies being aware of on your own. That includes your staminas, defects, gifting and even more. And that precedes prior to the various other personal development facets since without understanding on your own fully, you won't have the ability to know exactly how to proceed with your self development plans.
It's important you don't hurry this with, due to the fact that you want to make sure you got them covered as long as possible without missing them out.
Also, some individuals I have actually counselled state they don't have any kind of toughness or gifting. I can inform you that's completely incorrect. It's different for every person, and also there have to be something you're far better at than others.
Take your time to do this to get a clear picture of on your own. Remember, don't rush this via.
Everybody is various, as well as each individual will just flourish if they recognize what they desire. And knowing what you desire starts with first understanding your very own identification. Which's the 2nd personal development element for self development.
From my experience, I know that if you count on other individuals for your identity, you'll be shed as well as you can not accomplish correct personal development.
Learn what makes you, you. Don't duplicate the means others talk as well as behave just because they seemed to be well such as by others. Discover how you speak as well as behave, and then work with improving your own identification.
I can assure you this. If you can be the most effective you, you will certainly be well liked by others, regardless of your identity. Individuals want to experience who you truly are, and also when that takes place, you'll be surrounded by people who will certainly like to associate you, and you'll have the ability to create your personality further.
Exactly how's that for self growth?
This last personal development element deals with abilities that you have, not skills that others have yet you do not.
Why do I state that? Because if you appreciate others for a talent that they have but you do not, you may be tempted to go after that skill though you don't have it. That will sabotage your self growth, so beware.
Every person has a God-given talent, including you. And for you to have a healthy and balanced self growth, create those God-given talents. You'll understand that you'll be able to create your abilities much faster and much more conveniently than others due to the fact that it's God-given.
In some cases, it takes a while prior to you uncover what your skills are, so do not hesitate to attempt new points. You could just discover what your talents are if you pick to be open about discovering brand-new points.
So there you have it, the 3 personal development elements for reliable self development. Maintain them in mind and keep in mind to include them in your self development plan for a healthy growth of your life. Learn more at https://www.buenosdiasnoticias.com about personal development.
And also by the way, self growth ends up being a lot easier when you learn exactly how to understand your reasoning. And also all personal development facets all hinge on the method you think too.

This summer I will be returning to a favored project which I was satisfied with: The Roman Republic. This linchpin of the period fights with or against a host of opponents: Carthage, Spain, Samnites, Etruscans and Greek/Macedonians. First up is a box of Agema Republic Romans. The delicately sculpted figures provide a full division of Roman warriors with 2 Hastati, 2 Principes and 1 Triarii. Assembly was smooth, but I wish that they had provided a neck socket instead of a flat join between head and body.

Operations management is important. It is concerned with creating the products and services upon which we all depend. And creating products and services is the very reason for any organization's existence, whether that organization be large or small, manufacturing or service, for profit or not profit. Thankfully, most companies have now come to understand the importance of operations. This is because they have realized that effective operations management gives the potential to improve revenues and, at the same time, enables goods and services to be produced more efficiently. It is this combination of higher revenues and lower costs which is understandably important to any organization.
Operations management is also exciting. It is at the center of so many of the changes affecting the business world – changes in customer preference, changes in supply networks brought about by internet-based technologies, changes in what we want to do at work, how we want to work, and so on. There has rarely been a time when operations management was more topical or more at the heart of business and cultural shifts.
Operations management is also challenging. Promoting the creativity which will allow organizations to respond to so many changes is becoming the prime task of operations managers. It is they who must find the solutions to technological and environmental challenges, the pressures to be socially responsible, the increasing globalization of markets and the difficult-to-define areas of knowledge management.
The underlined word in: "It is they who must find the solutions to technological and…" is being used as a:
relative pronoun.
personal pronoun.
indefinite pronoun.
possessive pronoun.
demonstrative pronoun.

Fair trade – but what's in it for the world?
The fair trade movement, which aims ensure that fair prices are paid to producers in developing countries, is one of the true global success stories recent decades. The International Fairtrade Certification Mark, a guarantee that producers are getting a fair price, has become one of the most recognizable logos the world, which 91 percent of customers associate positive values. When the logo first appeared in the UK, the country where the largest number of fair-trade products are sold, nobody expected that the number of certified products would grow from only 3 to over 4,500 in just 18 years. In 2011, people around the world spent more than 6.5 billion US dollars on fair- -trade certified goods, signifying a 12 percent increase in sales from the previous year. This was at a time when most market segments in the developed world were still shrinking or stagnating from the after effects of the 2008 banking crisis. Over 1.2 million farmers and workers living in 66 countries benefit from fair- -trade certification by being able to sell their products at competitive prices, to ensure sustainability.
Fair-trade initiatives have been growing steadily since the late 1960s, when the fair trade movement started with only a handful of committed individuals in the West who believed there was an alternative to the exploitation of farmers and workers in the developing world. Fair trade ensures fair prices for suppliers, as well as payment of a premium that can be reinvested in the local communities (for example, in schools or sanitation) or in improving productivity. In India, for instance, a group of rice farmers used the premium to buy farm machinery, which meant a 30 percent improvement in production.
As consumers look for, and recognize, the logo and purchase fair-trade products, they put pressure on companies and governments to do more for global welfare. They also put pressure on supermarkets to sell fair-trade goods at the same price as conventional products, shifting the extra costs involved from consumers to the corporations that collect the profits.
Critics of the fair trade movement say it is still not doing enough. They stress that the key to long-term development is not in small local improvements, but in moving the developing world from the production of raw materials into processing them, which can bring in greater profit. There are already some signs of this happening. A group of tea growers in Kenya recently set up a processing factory to deliver the final products directly to their customers in the West. By switching from the export of raw tea to boxed fair-trade products, they achieved 500 percent higher profits.
It is important to realize that, despite all of its benefits, the fair trade movement has its limitations. Some of the poorest farmers can't afford to pay the certification fees required for each fair-trade initiative, while others work for big, multinational employers that are excluded from participating. Fair trade is certainly a step in the right direction, but there is a lot more we must continue to do in order to help people in the world's poorest regions.
The following words: 'when', 'who' and 'which' (paragraph 2), are classified as:
Personal pronouns.
Object pronouns.
Relative pronouns.
Possessive pronouns.
Interrogative pronouns.

Nazi labor camp guard living in New York deported
By Sheena McKenzie, CNN Updated 2155 GMT (0555 HKT) August 21, 2018
(CNN) A former Nazi labor camp guard who has been living in the United States for decades has finally been deported to Germany after years of diplomatic wrangling, the White House announced on Tuesday. Jakiw Palij, who worked as a guard at the Trawniki Labor Camp, in what was then German-occupied Poland, had been living out his post-war years in Queens, New York City.
Palij, 95, was born in what was then-Poland and now Ukraine, and immigrated to the US in 1949, becoming a citizen in 1957. The former Nazi guard lied to US immigration officials about his role in World War II, saying he worked on a farm and in a factory, the White House said in a statement. In 2001, Palij admitted to US Department of Justice officials that he had in fact trained and worked at the Trawniki Labor Camp in 1943. On November 3, 1943, around 6,000 Jewish prisoners at the camp were shot to death in one of the single largest massacres of the Holocaust, according to the White House statement.
"By serving as an armed guard at the Trawniki Labor Camp and preventing the escape of Jewish prisoners during his Nazi service, Palij played an indispensable role in ensuring that the Trawniki Jewish victims met their horrific fate at the hands of the Nazis," the White House added. In court filings, Palij has denied wrongdoing, claiming that he and other young men in his Polish hometown were coerced into working for the Nazi occupiers. In 2003, Palij's US citizenship was revoked. The following year, a federal judge ordered that Palij be deported -- but none of the European countries to which he could have been sent, would take him.
[…]Attorney General Jeff Sessions praised the work of the Justice Department's best-known Nazi hunter, Eli Rosenbaum, and his team in successfully removing the 68th Nazi from the United States. Palij's case represents the closing of an era -- until now he was the only remaining active case from the Nazi era pursued by the Justice Department's Office of Human Rights and Special Prosecutions.
The atrocities of the Trawniki camp, where Palij worked, aren't well known in part because the killing was thorough, historians say. One document researchers uncovered helped illustrate the extent of the killing. A soldier broke the butt of his rifle, which meant he was required to file a report so the German SS would issue him a new one. The report mentioned an operation that killed 4,000 people at Trawniki, mostly Jews.

Removing and monitoring bacterial endotoxins in biological samples
Published on 23rd June 2016
The removal of bacterial endotoxins from biological samples is a routine practice in many research laboratories. Gram-negative bacteria, where bacterial endotoxins come from, are characterised by their ability to grow in almost all conditions and types of samples where tests are performed in laboratories. Since the pyrogenicity of bacterial endotoxins and the consequences on the health of human and animal exposure to them was discovered, scientists have been studying the different methods of separating endotoxins when they are found to be contaminating any of the samples in laboratories.
The most common method for removing endotoxins from solutions of parenteral drugs is filtration. Bacterial endotoxins are lipopolysaccharides found in different states of aggregation as contaminants: in the form of vesicles, micelles or detergents that are soluble. All these forms in which the lipopolysaccharide molecules may be associated are removed using filters with different pore sizes. In the case that the solute and the aggregates of endotoxins have a similar size, supramolecular interactions between lipopolysaccharide molecules can be overcome using methods such as the extraction of cations. It has been shown that cations stabilize the bilayers formed by endotoxin molecules, where the hydrophilic part is exposed to the environment and the hydrophobic chains on the inside of the miscella or vesicle. These aggregates are stabilised by divalent cations, such as calcium or magnesium cations present in aqueous solutions. When removing cations from the solutions, we can remove endotoxins using filters with a pore size allowing the solute to pass and preventing the passage of contaminating endotoxins.
A useful method for removing endotoxins from biological samples is affinity chromatography, which is commonly used for protein samples. This technique consists of making the solutions pass through porous adsorbent material with immobilised histidine. Polymyxin B can also be immobilised. Endotoxins have a great affinity for histidine in a wide range of pH and temperatures. Cases have been reported where, using this chromatographic method, the concentration of endotoxins derived from various types of Gram-negative bacteria has been reduced from 1000 to less than 0.01 ng/mL of aqueous solution. This type of separation can be carried out, for example, in samples containing factor of tumour necrosis and lysozymes with good results. Other authors have compared chromatographic methods for removing endotoxins from samples containing proteins with separation by phase with the detergent Triton X-114. Through this procedure, a greater recovery of endotoxins in the phase containing the detergent is achieved compared to affinity chromatography. This technique is most useful in large scale processes, such as the purification of recombinant proteins.
A biological substance that has attracted the attention of researchers for replacing synthetic polymers in plastics with a molecule allowing to obtain biodegradable and/or biocompatible materials is the poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) or PHB. PHB is produced by Gram-negative bacteria, among which we can list the Ralstonia eutropha, Alcaligenes latus, and recombinant Escherichia coli. Following any of the procedures conducted to isolate the PHB synthesised by the bacteria, samples are found to be contaminated with endotoxins. To reduce the amount of endotoxins in extractions, the chloroform extraction method is replaced by digestion with sodium hydroxide. In this particular case, the separation of endotoxins is indispensable to use the PHB in any biomedical application, such as packaging design for controlled drug delivery, the manufacture of threads for sutures and the replacement of bone tissue.
In all cases where it is necessary to remove endotoxins from a specific medium, researchers perform the LAL test as a method of monitoring the separation. The LAL or Limulus Amebocyte Lysate test is based on the gelation that occurs in the hemolymph of the horseshoe crab in the presence of bacterial endotoxins. The gelation process can be measured qualitatively and quantitatively by turbidimetry as the gel causes turbidity to appear in the environment. The brand Wako, through the brand PYROSTAR™, offers a series of reagents and accessories for conducting the LAL test.
These kits can be purchased as single tests or as multi-tests, based on the needs of the researchers. For example, the simple Limulus PS is a unique test where, through the absorption of endotoxins in Pyrosep™, resin with an affinity and selectivity for these types of substances can be measured by the content of these substances in a sample. Unlike other kits for the analysis of LAL (Limulus Amebocyte Lysate), Limulus PS can dissolve samples that are non-soluble in water in organic solvents for performing the test. This feature is an advantage of the product given that in the past, in drug research, there was often a need to know the presence of endotoxins in non-aqueous solutions of the analyte since the molecules were insoluble in water. Fat-soluble samples are an example of the samples where the Limulus PS is useful.

Once again, my pumping experience was completely changed. I can't get up and walk around any further than the power cord will reach, but it was such a relief to be able to eat a meal or reach for something without holding on to my flanges. I no longer had to worry about them coming loose, or the bottles spilling.
The first bra I purchased was the Dairy Fairy Rose hands-free pumping bra in pink. As you can see, it's very cute and goes on like a regular bra.
I was looking for a pumping bra to wear like a regular bra to work though, and this one doesn't offer enough support for me to wear by itself. I also didn't find it to be very comfortable to sleep in.
So then I bought Rumina's Relaxed Nursing Bra with a built-in Hands-Free Pumping Bra and the Classic Pump&Nurse all-in-one Nursing Tank with built in hands-free pumping bra.
To me, both are super comfortable and I have no problem sleeping in either. They are slightly more complicated to insert the flanges into, but still easy enough to figure out right away.
The right side holds my flanges very well, but the left side seems to droop a tiny bit. I think it's because the bottom support is on the outside, whereas it's on the inside on the right side of the bra.
My favorite option is the Pump&Nurse tank. The cover layer clasps like a regular nursing bra and the flanges slip into the flaps underneath.
I like to wear a tank top under my blouses for work anyway, so I love that I don't have to wear an extra layer. Some reviews said the built-in bra was too many layers, but personally I like it because it gives enough support to wear without another bra underneath.
I may try others in the future, but I definitely want to purchase another tank or two so I don't have to do laundry as often!
Have a suggestion for another hands-free bra or tank? Leave a comment below and let me know what you like to wear!

Is this the ultimate blow-dry service?
We're in the midst of a fast beauty boom at the moment. With schedules packed and deadlines looming, on-demand hair services that fit into our busy working days have found themselves high in demand. However, finding ones that are equally high in quality can prove tricky - particularly in terms of the products used, long-lasting results and speed. However, when we heard that luxury haircare brand Kérastase was joining forces with blow LTD for an exclusive brand partnership, we were keen to find out if this could be one collaboration that would deliver on all counts.
Launching the 'Kérastase Blow Dry by blow LTD,' more than 300 of blow LTD's expert stylists will be using Kérastase styling products exclusively in all of its services going forward. They'll also be trained by the haircare brand in order to best tailor their recommendations to the client's individual needs and further maintain blow LTD's impressive quality stats. The leading on-demand beauty services company in the UK, it has a pretty amazing portfolio of customer satisfaction testimonials - 120,000 treatments delivered with a 95% customer satisfaction score. With those seriously stellar figures, we unsurprisingly couldn't wait to book in to see what it's latest service was like. Did it deliver though? Here's what you need to know.
Which blow-dries can you choose from?
Combining the timeless with the contemporary very well indeed, the 8-look menu provides ample hair inspiration to choose from. From updos to loose waves, there's something for weddings and nights out alike. With myself, Anna Hunter and Victoria Woodhall all having different hair lengths and types (fine to frizzy to wavy), we were able to find something that suited each of us easily.
Coming to us at our offices, we booked in for a Fast Blow, Power Blow and Chic Blow respectively. Each blowdry took around 20 minutes in total and our stylist Lauren was on hand from the get-go to provide useful tips beforehand. Offering style, speed and substance in equal measure, the fact that she was able to wet our hair using a spray bottle made for a very welcomed practical touch (thankfully saving us a trip to the sink in the ladies').
The range of Kérastase products chosen for our differing hair needs left a lasting impression on us in more ways than one. Not only did they boost the immediate shine and polish of the final looks, but they also gave our blow-dries some much appreciated longevity in the coming days. Plus, they smelt pretty amazing too.
Yes we would. Fast yet efficient, the consultation gives the blow-dry a bespoke feel and the flexibility to visit either a blow LTD beauty bar or have a stylist come to you makes it much easier to make time for. Plus, to accommodate the growing demand for out of hours appointments, the blow-dry is available for at-home bookings from 7am until late seven days a week. A bevy of Kérastase products is also available to purchase through the blow LTD ecommerce channel, to ensure all aftercare needs are comprehensively met too.
Download the new blow LTD app here to book an appointment or to rebook your favourite stylist.

SHAREHOLDER ACTION NOTICE: The Schall Law Firm Announces the Filing of a Class Action Lawsuit Against Biogen Inc. and Encourages Investors with Losses in Excess of $100,000 to Contact the Firm
3:50 pm ET November 18, 2020 (Newsfile) Print
Los Angeles, California--(Newsfile Corp. - November 18, 2020) - The Schall Law Firm, a national shareholder rights litigation firm, announces the filing of a class action lawsuit against Biogen Inc. ("Biogen" or "the Company") (NASDAQ: BIIB) for violations of §§10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Investors who purchased the Company's securities between October 22, 2019 and November 6, 2020, inclusive (the ''Class Period''), are encouraged to contact the firm before January 12, 2021.
If you are a shareholder who suffered a loss, click here to participate.
We also encourage you to contact Brian Schall of the Schall Law Firm, 1880 Century Park East, Suite 404, Los Angeles, CA 90067, at 310-301-3335, to discuss your rights free of charge. You can also reach us through the firm's website at www.schallfirm.com, or by email at brian@schallfirm.com.
The class, in this case, has not yet been certified, and until certification occurs, you are not represented by an attorney. If you choose to take no action, you can remain an absent class member.
According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Biogen's larger dataset failed to provide necessary information on aducanumab's effectiveness. The Company's EMERGE study also failed to include necessary data on its effectiveness. This failure extended to the Company's PRIME study of aducanumab. The Company's submission to the FDA Peripheral and Central Nervous System Drugs Advisory Committee did not support the efficacy of the drug. Based on these facts, the Company's public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about Biogen, investors suffered damages.
Join the case to recover your losses.

Was there a scene file change that I need to reload an older version for?
Or might I just have some corrupt files?
Older scenes should open fine. In what way won't they open, what error message are you getting?
won't opend in 9.6 it just hangs. I'll check the error message in the morning.
Long time ago with LW 7 or something there was a problem with the .LWS extention being writing - so from some files I have had to add the extention.
Just going back and looking to pool all my assests and rerender some older work not that it can be done in a day and not weeks. In doing so I have found some scene files just won't open - again details in a day.
Looks like I have a very slow NTS drive at times and I have dumped some 4,000 object files in my catch all objects folder.
What I am getting is a "program not responding" however is I wait 5 or 10 min. is starts loading. If crash a time or two but I think that had to do with my trying to cancel out of what I thought was a lost cause.
Seems a number of the scene files dateing back to 2002 or LW6.5 are missing file extensions which was a problem until 6.5b came out I think.
Thanks again for your time your question put me on the right track.

Worldwide Direct Action in Support of Oaxaca on November 20
https://elenemigocomun.net/2006/11/worldwide-direct-action-oaxaca-november-20/
On October 27, paramilitaries in Oaxaca, Mexico murdered Indymedia journalist Brad Will. He is one of dozens who have lost their lives at the hands of pro-government forces while participating in the largely nonviolent resistance to government oppression in that region. Mexican president Vicente Fox used Brad's death as a pretext to send 4,000 federal police into the city of Oaxaca; these forces are systematically brutalizing the population.
The people of Oaxaca have not backed down – through days of courageous fighting, they have managed to protect their radio station at the university, repelling machine gun wielding armored police with only sticks, stones, and hope. On November 5, tens of thousands marched through the streets of Oaxaca, calling for the federal police to leave.
The only reason that hundreds more have not yet been killed in Oaxaca is that the Mexican government fears the response that would engender in Mexico and across the world. Those who have organized solidarity demonstrations at Mexican consulates can congratulate themselves on helping, however slightly, to deter the Mexican government from ordering a bloodbath.
That bloodbath will still take place, however, unless we continue to escalate the pressure upon President Fox's government to withdraw federal forces from Oaxaca. The EZLN has announced that it will help coordinate a nationwide shut-down on November 20. This must be matched with international actions to show that the world has not taken its eyes off Oaxaca, that on the contrary, the mobilization in support of those who struggle there is only gathering momentum.
On November 20, blockades will be set up to show the Mexican government we mean business. We are calling upon YOU to join in these blockades. That could mean blockading the consulates' websites, jamming their phone lines with calls about the conflict in Oaxaca, occupying the offices of the consuls, or shutting down the roads around the consulates in whatever way you see fit.
If we do not show Vicente Fox that paramilitaries and federal forces cannot brutalize Oaxaca with impunity, the blood of an entire murdered resistance movement will be on our hands. Now is the time to act in solidarity with those who struggle in Oaxaca, in solidarity with the Zapatistas who have called on us to support them, and in solidarity with all who struggle against government and capitalism across the world.
Actions are already being planned in cities around the US. Please plan actions in yours.

Chicago:
Various sectarian leftist groups (including, but not limited to: ISO, Spartacist League, and RCP) will, once again, attempt to co-opt this solidarity action with their totally irrelevant banners and signs, as well as selling lots of boring, ugly, and badly-written newspapers. They will spend a significant part of the day arguing amongst themselves and trying to manipulate and control everyone else, like they do at every fucking event they go to….

Nov 16, 2006 / 2:34 pm
The Popular Assembly of the People of Oaxaca (APPO), comprised of hundreds of social organizations, including the Teachers Union 22, has been occupying the city of Oaxaca for months, The Teachers Union and
APPO have held the city demanding the resignation of Governor Ulises Ruiz Ortiz, who has kidnapped, disappeared, tortured, and killed many
Oaxacans during his disputed term in office. On October 29, five individuals participating in or observing the resistance in Oaxaca, including Brad Will, a US Indymedia journalist, were murdered by government affiliated paramilitaries. Mexican president Vincente Fox has since used the death of an N. American journalist to justify bringing in thousands of federal military troops to overtake the city. In the meantime, APPO has been formalizing and instigating a directly-democratic, autonomous system of self-governance. The Mexican federal forces may have invaded but the APPO still controls the heart of the city and the spirit of the people is still strong.
Coinciding with the anniversary of the Mexican Revolution of 1910, the Zapatista Army of National Liberation has called for a general strike throughout Mexico, and for international displays of solidarity on November 20th. In response to this call, several events have been planned in Greensboro for the day of Monday, Nov. 20th.
So, join us as you are able…
Ongoing throughout the day ::
*Visit us at our Learn-In. Join us as we visit Oaxaca via the web! Read relevant literature! Learn more about what's happening! Listen! Discuss! :: Corner of W. Market & Eugene St.

This weekend, tens of thousands of people from across the U.S. and beyond will converge on Ft. Benning, Georgia in a massive rally and vigil calling for the closing of the infamous military base where countless Latin American officers have been trained in methods of torture and repression. The CIW and SFA will be out in force and adding to the clamor of voices calling for the " School of the Americas" to be shut down now.

For more info on the weekend's events and the SOA, visit http://www.soaw.org.
We also wanted to share with you all this inspiring reportback from one SFA member's experiences during the recent Days of Action:
"…But it made me realize that the power of a fast food restaurant to make me feel small and insignificant is not something to be underestimated. I think that is a big part of why the SFA is so important. We are not small and insignificant. We are more than consumers. When we find our voices, we can make some serious changes… "

ITV Yorkshire (anteriormente Yorkshire Television) es una productora y canal de televisión británico que forma parte de la cadena ITV. Está controlado por la compañía ITV plc y su área de transmisión cubre el noreste de Inglaterra, incluyendo el sur de Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire y Derbyshire

Las emisiones comenzaron el 29 de julio de 1968 desde Leeds para todo el condado de Yorkshire, un área anteriormente cubierta por Granada Television. Desde entonces ha producido programas de éxito para ITV como la telenovela Emmerdale, la serie Heartbeat, el programa documental Whicker's World y el concurso 3-2-1.

Historia

Creación de Yorkshire Television

En los años 1960, el mercado televisivo británico estaba compuesto por tres canales: dos de la radiodifusora pública BBC —BBC-1 y BBC-2— e Independent Television (ITV), controlada por la Autoridad Independiente de Televisión (ITA) y compuesta por una red de franquicias regionales. En la renovación de licencias de 1967, la ITA decidió crear un nuevo radiodifusor para el condado de Yorkshire que redujera la influencia de las dos franquicias de ITV hasta entonces operativas: Granada Television —reformulada para el noroeste de Inglaterra— y ABC TV.

La franquicia que obtuvo la concesión, Yorkshire Television Network, era una agrupación de varias propuestas que se habían presentado a la licitación, y que estaban compuestas por medios de comunicación locales y exdirigentes de ITV. El presidente del grupo vencedor era Ward Thomas, procedente de Grampian Television.

Yorkshire Television inició sus emisiones el 29 de julio de 1968 desde su nuevo estudio central en Leeds, con una nómina de trabajadores procedente de ABC TV y Rediffusion. Desde el primer momento centró su actividad en programación local y en entretenimiento para la red ITV. A partir del 15 de noviembre de 1969 comenzó a emitir televisión en color, si bien sus estudios ya estaban preparados para ello desde la inauguración.

Consolidación (1970-1992)
Después de dos años con dificultades económicas, provocadas por el colapso del transmisor de Emley Moor, en 1970 fue adquirida por el grupo Trident Television Limited, propietario de la franquicia Tyne Tees TV para el nordeste de Inglaterra. Ward Thomas se mantuvo al frente de ese consorcio y contrató como director de programación a Paul Fox, exdirector de BBC-1.

A lo largo de los años 1970 se mantuvo una sinergía entre Yorkshire y Tyne Tees que convirtió a la primera en una productora importante dentro de ITV. En ese tiempo se especializó en entretenimiento, en series como Rising Damp (1974-1978) y la telenovela Emmerdale (1972) e incluso en el primer programa europeo de televisión matinal, Good Morning Calendar (1977). También hizo una notable apuesta por el periodismo de investigación liderado por Alan Whicker.

La historia de Yorkshire Television también estuvo marcada por conflictos laborales, situación común en esa década. En diciembre de 1978 hubo una huelga que dejó a Yorkshire sin este canal durante dos días. Y en la huelga general de 1979, el apagón llegó a prolongarse durante dos meses con sonadas disputas entre los sindicatos y los dueños del grupo Trident Television.

En la revisión de franquicias de 1980, la ITA fue reemplazada por la Autoridad Independiente de Radiodifusión (IBA). Yorkshire Television obtuvo la renovación y vio ampliada su área de transmisión a zonas limítrofes, pero a cambio se forzó un cambio accionarial porque Trident Television suponía una concentración de medios. De este modo, tanto Yorkshire como Tyne Tees tuvieron una gestión separada a partir de 1981.

En los años 1980, Yorkshire Television produjo numerosos programas tanto para ITV como para Channel 4. En 1986 se convirtió en el primer canal de televisión europeo que emitía las 24 horas del día, mediante un acuerdo con el canal satélite Music Box que se mantuvo hasta su cierre en 1987.

Yorkshire-Tyne Tees (1992-2001)
Tras la aprobación de la nueva Ley Audiovisual de 1990, el gobierno británico pasó a tolerar la fusión y concentración entre concesionarias de ITV, siempre bajo una serie de condiciones. Con esta medida, Yorkshire Television y Tyne Tees retomaron el acuerdo de gestión conjunta a través de un consorcio, Yorkshire-Tyne Tees Television (YTTV), que supuso a su vez un expediente de regulación de empleo.

En 1993 Granada Television hizo una opa hostil para adquirir London Weekend Television, así que los londinenses trataron de contrarrestarla con una negociación exprés sobre Yorkshire Television. Sin embargo, la propuesta no era viable y LWT quedó bajo control de Granada, por lo que YTTV continuó siendo un grupo independiente. En 1996, los gestores de YTTV intentaron unificar la marca de sus dos canales bajo el nombre «Channel 3».

El 26 de junio de 1997, Granada Television adquirió Yorkshire-Tyne Tees Television por 652 millones de libras y mantuvo la sede de Leeds como centro operativo para el norte de Inglaterra. La marca Yorkshire Television siguió existiendo hasta que el 28 de octubre de 2002 fue reemplazada por «ITV1 Yorkshire», dentro de un relanzamiento nacional de ITV.

Las autoridades británicas aprobaron en 2003 la fusión de Granada y Carlton en una sola compañía, ITV plc, que pasaría a gestionar 12 de las 15 franquicias de la red como una sola empresa. La marca original siguió utilizándose en el copyright de algunos espacios hasta el 1 de noviembre de 2004.

Pneumoconiosis is a lung condition that is caused by inhaling particles of mineral dust, usually while working in a high-risk, mineral-related industry. At first, irritating mineral dust can trigger lung inflammation, which causes areas of the lung to be temporarily damaged. Over time, these areas can progress to form tough, fibrous tissue deposits. This stage of pneumoconiosis is called fibrosis. Fibrosis stiffens the lungs and interferes with the lung's normal exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.

Washington, DC (May 31, 2018)—The American College of Physicians strongly objects to the Department of Homeland Security's "zero tolerance" policy that requires that all unlawful border crossers be referred to the Department of Justice for prosecution as a misdemeanor of illegal entry, including parents seeking asylum from persecution who enter the U.S. with their children. Their children will be treated as if they were "unaccompanied minors," separated from their parents and sent into facilities administered by the federal government.
In a 2017 position statement on U.S. immigration policy, ACP expressed our concern about immigration policies that would split up families. While ACP policy recognizes the right of the U.S. to control who enters its borders, a policy of universally separating children from their parents entering U.S. borders will do great harm to children, their parents, and their families.
Childhood trauma and adverse childhood experiences create negative health impacts that will last an individual's entire lifespan. Separating a child from his or her parents triggers a level of stress consistent with trauma. Families seeking refuge in the U.S. already endure emotional and physical stress, and separating family members from each other only serves to dramatically exacerbate that stress.
The American College of Physicians calls on the Department of Homeland Security, Attorney General Sessions, and President Trump to withdraw its new policy to require separation of children from their parents, and instead, give priority to supporting families and protecting the health and well-being of the children within those families.

Here's Why Hurricane Michael Is Especially Terrifying
Storm surges of up to 14 feet could devastate the Florida Panhandle.
Dan Spinelli
Joe Raedle/Getty Images
Hurricane Michael—with its 145 mph winds—has made landfall and it's set to become the strongest hurricane on record to hit the Florida Panhandle. Coming on the heels of Florence, which inundated the Carolinas with record rainfall and led to at least 17 deaths, Michael is especially dangerous because of the threat of catastrophic storm surges.
Storm surge refers to the rise in sea level above the normal tide level. The one that Michael threatens could be up to 14 feet in some communities and could potentially devastate property throughout the region. Hurricane Sandy, which brought at most 9 feet of storm surge, was responsible for $19 billion in damage across the New York area, and Michael's size and unique path could ensure it packs an even more powerful punch. "Unfortunately, Hurricane Michael is a hurricane of the worst kind," FEMA Administrator William "Brock" Long said Wednesday at a news briefing.
"Unfortunately, Hurricane Michael is a hurricane of the worst kind."
A number of factors make Michael's storm surge such a threat. For one thing, the hurricane is huge and very strong. After it makes landfall, the National Hurricane Center predicts that it will be a Category 4 storm with tropical-storm-force winds extending up to 175 miles from its center. If Michael remains at that level, it will be the most powerful October hurricane since Hazel hit the Carolinas in 1954. The Weather Channel has an explainer to show what the storm surge could mean:
https://develop.motherjones.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/StormSurge.mp4
Just after noon on Wednesday, the storm tide on the shore of Apalachicola Bay was more than 6 inches above high tide, the forecasting service Weather Underground reported.
"Winds blow in a spiral direction and pile up water right near the center of the storm," says Jeff Masters, the co-founder of Weather Underground. "When the water gets all piled up there in the eye, it has nowhere to go. As the storm moves ashore, it takes that bulge of water with it."
In a year of several extreme weather events—even Siberia recorded historically warm temperatures in July— Michael is still unusual. It will only be the tenth major hurricane to make landfall in the Florida Panhandle since 1851 and one of the few at this time of year, when colder seas make tropical storm formation more unlikely. Instead of finding obstacles to expansion, Michael is sweeping up water from an abnormally warm Gulf of Mexico. "Even though it is early October, no cold fronts have yet chilled the waters near the central Gulf Coast, so very warm surface waters are in place to support Michael right up to landfall," Masters wrote in a blog post this week.
While the Panhandle will take the brunt of Michael's impact, the already-waterlogged Carolinas won't be immune from remnants of the storm. Michael is arriving during a time of extraordinarily high tide, known as the "King Tides," which could produce another storm surge along the Atlantic Coast, where residents are still recovering from Hurricane Florence. During these tides, which occur when the Sun and Moon are aligned with the Earth, a weakened Michael may drive up flooding totals.
Both North and South Carolina declared states of emergency on Wednesday in preparation for the storm and Long, the FEMA administrator, urged Georgia residents to "wake up and pay attention." Michael could be the worst storm, he said, the state has seen in "many, many decades—and maybe ever."
Hurricane Michael Might Be the Strongest Storm to Ever Hit Florida's Panhandle
Hurricane Florence Is Absolutely Soaking the Carolinas—and It's a Harbinger of Storms to Come

Born to Use Mics
Reading Nas's Illmatic
At the age of nineteen, Nasir "Nas" Jones began recording tracks for his debut album--and changed the music world forever. Released in 1994, Illmatic was hailed as an instant masterpiece and has proven one of the most influential albums in hip-hop history. With its close attention to beats and lyricism, and riveting first-person explorations of the isolation and desolation of urban poverty, Illmatic was pivotal in the evolution of the genre.
In Born to Use Mics , Michael Eric Dyson and Sohail Daulatzai have brought together renowned writers and critics including Mark Anthony Neal, Marc Lamont Hill, Eddie S. Glaude, Jr., and many others to confront Illmatic song by song, with each scholar assessing an individual track from the album. The result is a brilliant engagement with and commentary upon one of the most incisive sets of songs ever laid down on wax.

As a person who is interested in the Hip Hop movement and culture, I found this book very helpful in unfolding the meanings in one of the most famous albums in hip hop. The authors do a great job in analyzing the metaphors and the lifestyle of residents of urban neighborhoods, such as Queensbridge, New York. I recommend this book to those who are fans of Nas' work as well as those who are curious or interested in the Hip Hop culture.

Home Entertainment News Jared Leto Gets Vocal About #ReleaseTheAyerCut
Jared Leto Gets Vocal About #ReleaseTheAyerCut
November 19, 2021 | Gunjan Nath
Ever since Snyder-cut started to snowball worldwide, thanks to the cult campaign, the hashtag #ReleaseTheAyerCut started popping up on several social media platforms in support of David Ayer's original version of the film. Ayer has been encouraging #ReleaseTheAyerCut, and now, Jared Leto is starting to get vocal about it.
Jared played a punk, offbeat version of the Joker, who surprisingly, had minimal screen-time in the theatrical cut of Suicide Squad. Ayer cunningly used this opportunity to tease the fans that Leto absolutely 'nailed it' in the unseen footages.
On December 20, 2020, Zack Snyder reported in an interview that he plans to offer support for Ayer's Suicide Squad cut as soon as he's done working on his Justice League cut. In the Los Angeles premiere of House of Gucci on Thursday night, Leto expressed his thoughts about #ReleaseTheAyerCut to Variety,
"Absolutely, Why not? Why wouldn't they? That's what streaming's for, right?"
The actor is offering full support to #ReleaseTheAyerCut being made available to the fans. David Ayer also confirmed there's only some VFX work to be completed in order to express his art-slash-vision. However, Ann Sarnoff, head of Warner Bros. seemed reluctant about putting the film into production.
Leto recently opened up about his "method acting" on the sets of Suicide Squad. In the lead-up to the film's release, there were stories cooking up about the Joker sending used condoms to cast mates like Margot Robbie and Will Smith. However, Leto now claims that those were just exaggerated stories, blown way out of proportion since everything was fun, adventure and laughter in their set. Leto told Entertainment Weekly,
"I'm playing a guy called the Joker, it's okay to play some jokes. Nothing ever crossed any lines, and it's not up to other people on the internet to create those lines."
On July 3, 2021, Joel Kinnaman, John Cena and Mayling Ng called for the cut to release. Hours later, Margot Robbie called for it to be released. There is growing speculation that HBO Max will release the Ayer Cut, since it would earn them a great deal of money for a very small cost. But at this point, only time will tell.

Portaferry's 'Just Live a Little' in Hong Kong granola deal
Picture by Parkway Photography
Grainne McVeigh, Director, Invest NI's International Group (centre), pictured with David Crawford, managing director, Crawford's Food, and Jill Crawford, director, Crawford's Food.
Portaferry-based Crawford's Food has won its first business in Hong Kong for its Just Live a Little branded granolas with assistance from Invest Northern Ireland.
The family-run company has secured a contract that will see its breakfast granolas on the shelves of ParknShop supermarkets, Hong Kong's biggest grocery business and leading online retailer.
The contract was announced by David Crawford, Managing Director of Crawford's Food, a small business he formed in 2009 with wife Jill, and welcomed by Grainne McVeigh, Director Invest NI International Group.
The new export business follows an introduction for Mr Crawford from Invest NI's Business Development team in Great Britain, to Foods of Europe, a major UK food distributor with substantial business in Hong Kong.
Crawford's Food, Northern Ireland's only manufacturer of granola cereals and muesli, is supplying three products – Toasted Muesli, Apple, Cinnamon and Whole Almonds and Cranberry, Cashew and Coconut – in two different pack formats.
Commenting on the contract, Ms McVeigh said: "This new and potentially very significant export business for Crawford's Food is a further example of how our dedicated marketing staff in Britain are helping a growing number of smaller food businesses in Northern Ireland to grow sales abroad.
"This ambitious company has developed a unique range of quality granola and muesli and responded extremely quickly and successfully to the introduction to this important UK distributor. Our business development teams have been working closely with a number of our food companies, both large and small, to help them secure worthwhile contracts in global markets such as Asia.
"As the initial contract for Crawford's Food in Hong Kong demonstrates, the opportunities are significant even for smaller companies if they have the right quality products and are prepared to follow up leads quickly and professionally."
Mr Crawford said: "This is an immensely exciting contract which gives us a platform for growth in Hong Kong and other markets. There's tremendous demand from ex-pats and Chinese residents in Hong Kong for quality UK produce. What seems to have helped us win the business is the different flavours provided by our combinations of natural ingredients.
"I appreciate greatly the support and advice provided by Invest NI in creating the bridge for me to pitch our products to this major international food distributor. Winning this export business in our first two years in business is extremely encouraging.
"Our focus now is on developing sales outside Northern Ireland, where we have an established distribution through delis, farm shops and upmarket grocers."
This further success follows the company's first orders outside Northern Ireland when earlier this year it was included by Fine Foods in its portfolio of products distributed throughout the Republic of Ireland.
The company's products include ingredients from other Northern Irish suppliers such as White's natural oats and bramley apple sauce from County Armagh.
Ingredients in the range of granolas are all mixed by hand and then slow baked to develop their delicious flavour and texture.
Apple Cinnamon Whole Almond Granola is the company's flagship product. As well as Cranberry, Cashew and Coconut, the company produces Fig and Hazelnut granola and Toasted Muesli.
The Just Live a Little brand was launched by the company earlier in the year to develop a stronger identity for the products. New products in the pipeline include granola mini bites and different granola flavours.

FPL proposing rate increase in April
The Florida Public Service Commission would need to vote on the proposal
Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) is proposing a rate increase beginning in April. A spokesperson says it is to recover costs for last year's hurricanes and a worldwide spike in natural gas prices.
By: WFTX Digital Team
Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) is proposing a rate increase beginning in April.
A spokesperson says it is to recover costs for last year's hurricanes and a worldwide spike in natural gas prices.
Back in 2021, FPL introduced a four-year rate plan to increase prices to pay for new infrastructure.
Under the new proposal, customers could pay closer to $145 per month on average compared to the projected $111 per month under the current rate.
Florida Department of Energy says with the increase, FPL customers would still pay less than the average customer in the state.
This is just a proposal, the Florida Public Service Commission would have vote on it.
