All Eva's Print Shop profits go toward providing youth with shelter, programs, a sense of community and belonging, and transitional housing in hopes of ultimately ending youth homelessness. Through their print shop, they provide the youth with experience necessary for employment, simple life skills, counselling, and education. We spoke with Jonathan Gault, Eva's Print Shop Manager, about the success of their company and future goals.
Eva's Print Shop is a full-service digital printer that reduces youth homelessness. When you print with us, you help prepare youth experiencing homelessness for employment in the graphics and print sector.
We reinvest every dollar of profit into shelter, food, caring support, and basic needs for homeless youth at Eva's.
Our shop is located at Eva's Phoenix, a transitional housing and employment training facility in downtown Toronto run by Eva's Initiatives for Homeless Youth. We are a "profit to propose business", and in the shop space, we deliver a Graphic Communications and Print Training Program for young people experiencing or at risk of homelessness to help prepare them for employment.
Eva's Print Shop measures our success not only through business outcomes and financial returns on investment, but we also look at social measures: how well are we preparing young people in our graphic communications and print training program for employment? How are young people exploring their talents and developing a passion for being creators? How will the workplace practice they get in the program and internship in the shop help prepare them for a job, housing, and, ultimately, living in the community independently?
What's next for social innovation?
We're exploring what it would take to support young people experiencing homelessness who strive to become entrepreneurs using a diverse set of skills and digital capacities. We have a lot of talent in our midst and so many young people are entrepreneurial and tech-savvy. They could blossom in these dreams if they were supported in meaningful ways to do it.
How is Eva's making the world a better place?
Over 70% of our training program students get full-time work, and we provide follow-up support to help them sustain employment. On top of that, profit helps us run Eva's emergency shelters and transitional housing facilities that provide short-term supports for young people to survive today and long-term interventions to help them thrive tomorrow and build futures free of homelessness.
Helping these young people at this critical phase in their lives is incredibly impactful because we're "cutting the pipeline" to adult chronic homelessness and preventing the devastating human, social, and community toll homelessness takes in a country like Canada.
Coffee.... Seriously though, I enjoy what I do, not that hard to get out of bed and out to work.
"Print for Good" or "I'll take two banner stands"!
The team of individuals I work with at Eva's. I'm lucky enough to be surrounded by a very talented group of writers, artists, academics, therapists, and craftspeople. They could all all choose to work in any field that they want, but they choose to provide support, mentorship, and guidance for young people.
A lot of people doing social good feel like they're sacrificing the ability to make money - do you feel this way, why or why not?
Everyone has their own motivations when it comes to the work that they do. But in my experience, I haven't found that many people doing social good feel like they are sacrificing the ability to make money. For them, the benefits are very meaningful in their lives. This of course doesn't mean that we shouldn't invest in social good and social change efforts like that of Eva's Print Shop ... it actually means that the returns on investment are so powerful because everyone involved are so passionate about it!
What's the last thing that left you stumped?
Matching Purple C on a grey linen stock.
We want to continue to grow and build. Commercial success and social success are intertwined. A larger customer base and more investments into our model will lead to more work opportunities for young people who come through our program.
By 2020, we would love to double our customers and supporters to multiply our social impact because there are so many business who would print for good if they knew of us!

We've been installing double glazed windows and replacement doors for thousands of happy customers in Oxford and across Oxfordshire since 1997, priding ourselves on fitting quality products, giving great customer service and expert advice without pushy sales teams. Based in Bicester, we are conveniently located to serve the whole of Oxfordshire and beyond, including Witney, Headington, Abingdon and even some parts of Gloucester.
Our expert team of window and door fitters have over 25 years experience fitting windows, doors and conservatories in Oxfordshire and will always be courteous and polite in your home. They work hard to ensure minimum disruption to your daily life while your new windows and doors are being fitted and are trained to a very standard.
We have an extensive range of double glazing windows and replacement doors to suit both your property and your needs. We can help you choose new windows and doors which will enhance your home and provide many additional benefits, such as extra insulation, lower energy bills, more natural light, increased house value and enhanced aesthetics.
Whether you like a bright, open and airy feel with ultra modern features or you prefer a traditional country cottage feel with period features such as traditional sash windows, we can help you choose the right options.
If you are unsure of which style and/or material to choose from, our team of expert window and door specialists are always on hand to advise you on which products to choose to complement your properties style and features. All our windows feature double glazing and are available in several different colours and styles to suit your home.
When it comes to doors, we also offer a large range of styles and materials which each offer their own benefits. For example, composite doors provide an even higher level of security and insulation than their uPVC counterparts and can be matched well with many styles of properties, be it a modern house or a Victorian terraced property. Their composition will keep drafts out of your home and due to their extremely strong structure and frame, they are considered to be one of the most secure options when it comes to replacement residential front doors.
We also supply and install replacement backdoors too, offering a range of modern solutions that can really open up your home and create the illusion of more space both inside and out. Some of these solutions include bi-fold doors and sliding patio doors which are great for replacing a single back door and bringing the outside in.
We understand that choosing a company to replace or install new windows is a big decision to make and not one you want to get wrong! For this reason, we offer all customers a 10-year guarantee minimum on all windows and doors. So y0u can have that extra peace of mind and rest assured that your windows will give you years of enjoyment.

We are happy to announce that the EI Sturdza Strategic Europe Value Fund is celebrating its fifth anniversary. The Fund is advised by Portfolio Manager Willem Vinke of Lofoten Asset Management, who has been awarded top ratings by both Citywire and Morningstar for his consistency in delivering benchmark-beating returns, despite the challenging market conditions since its inception.
The Fund's performance of 122%* since 2010 significantly outperforms that of the MSCI Europe Total Return benchmark, which returned 59% during the same period, putting Willem in the top 2.5% of managers globally and the top 3% of European equity managers in Citywire's fund manager database. Furthermore, the Fund has offered investors an annualised return since inception of 17% compared to 10% of the MSCI Europe Index.
In addition to the above rankings and ratings, we are pleased to announce that Willem was recently (24.11.15) awarded the best European Fund Manager prize in Citywire's Italian Fund manager and group awards 2015.
Willem has been involved in the management of European equity funds since 1995 and has been in the financial industry since 1992. He previously held senior positions with Morgan Stanley, JO Hambro Capital Management and Parcom Capital (a subsidiary of ING), before establishing Lofoten Asset Management, the Investment Adviser to the Fund, in 2009.
Willem is fluent in five languages and holds a BSc (Hons) in Management Sciences from the University of Manchester, an MA in European Studies from the College of Europe, Bruges, and an MSc in Economics from the London School of Economics and Political Sciences. In addition, Willem is also a CFA Charter holder.
The EI Sturdza Strategic Europe Value Fund's investment philosophy is based on fundamentals, using a bottom-up stock selection process to determine value, identifying and selecting high quality companies. Quality companies being defined as those that are market leaders, that exhibit stable and visible recurring revenue streams, with high margins, low capital intensity and quality management.
The investment approach followed by Willem focuses on corporate value based on cash flow (operating cash flow, free cash flow and earnings before interest and tax depreciation and amortization "EBITDA"), and the quality of the companies' business models and management.
This "quality value" is then analysed with regard to how attractively a stock is priced. This process tends to result in overweight exposures to sectors such as consumer driven, healthcare, IT and support services, while the Fund generally avoids commercial banks, insurance, commodities, chemicals and utilities.
The overall result of this approach is a high conviction, benchmark agnostic portfolio of 25-35 positions within the universe of large capitalisation liquid stocks of European companies, or companies listed on European exchanges.
In order to ensure that investments in quality companies deliver actual returns, another driver of returns is arguably necessary: value. In other words, the aim is to buy quality but at a favourable price. As a result, the team spends a lot of time developing their own internal models, using a Discount Cash Flow (DCF) approach, with the aim of finding companies with at least 40% upside. Albeit far harder than it used to be, it still is possible to find such opportunities.
Overall, the Fund looks for companies that are in charge of their own destiny; companies that can determine what happens to them by the actions they themselves take, rather than being overly influenced by macro events and noise.
These general principles of adopting a quality approach are relatively simple to understand. However, the devil, as is almost always the case, is in the implementation: considerable experience and analytical work is required to correctly interpret the volume of information available daily to any investment manager. Such intensive, analytical work also requires a corporate structure that allows portfolio managers to focus exclusively on managing money. This is achieved as a result of EI Sturdza's innovative business model, which sees the Company assuming responsibility for all legal, administrative, compliance and distribution services, as well as providing institutional style risk management oversight. This frees Willem and his team to focus purely on research, asset allocation and portfolio construction, putting their focus on quality value into practice.

Kansas guard Tyshawn Taylor pulls up for a three over Iowa State guard Chris Allen during the first half on Saturday, Jan. 28, 2012 at Hilton Coliseum.
Omaha, Neb — Set, square, rise, release, follow through.
That, in a nutshell, is a list of the key components of the perfect jumpshot.
Kansas University senior Tyshawn Taylor possesses a few of them, but rarely does a jumper from the right hand of the dynamic guard from Hoboken, N.J., deliver the kind of shot that KU fans grew to love from current and former sharp-shooters such as Tyrel Reed, Xavier Henry and Conner Teahan.
Doesn't matter. During KU's 27-6 season, Taylor's long-range shots have gone in more often than ever before. And that's saying something for a four-year starter who has hoisted more than 300 three-pointers during his college career.
In helping lead Kansas to its eighth straight Big 12 title and a No. 2 seed in this week's NCAA Tournament, Taylor shot .435 from behind the three-point line, tops on the team among those with more than 20 attempts, and, by far, the best of his career. His 57 makes also led the team and were just five fewer than the number of threes he made during his first three seasons at KU combined.
Throughout the years, the athletic combo guard has dedicated plenty of time to his jumper. Capable of getting to the rim on just about every possession, Taylor said he realized improving his range would make him even more dangerous off the dribble.
Taylor's consistency has provided a huge lift to a team that entered the season lacking depth and proven three-point shooting. Senior Conner Teahan (47-for-132, .356) and junior Elijah Johnson (56-for-174, .322) opened the season as KU's most well known long-range bombers, but both had played few meaningful minutes, making Taylor's ability to rain threes critical.
Taylor said he fully expected Teahan and Johnson to carry the load behind the three-point line.
"If you would've asked me, I would've definitely told you that they would've been our best (three-point) shooters, percentage-wise, makes, whatever," Taylor said.
But he hasn't minded adding the long-range jumper to his own arsenal, something that, no doubt, will increase his value when his college career is finished.
Asked to describe Taylor's jumpshot, both Juenemann and Teahan had a little fun playing the role usually executed by KU's resident shot doctor, assistant coach Joe Dooley.
Alright, TT, just keep on working your magic, step by step. We're confident in your ability to keep growing and going every day, and it's been great this season.
Your game has exploded like we always knew it could, so just let it flow and it will all be good. Go out there and have FUN!!!
Rock Chalk, Jayhawks!!! Go KU!!
Drexler shot funny, too. i could care less about the jumper, if it goes in, why bother? it's a luxury to have a consistent 3 pointer now. great work, TT! great work!!
If it ain't broke, don't fix it... Leave the guy alone. For cryin' out loud leave him alone and let him shoot what's comfortable.
As they say, "it all looks like a line drive in the box score." The results are what counts.
This is Tyshawn's chance to really shine, and if he can stay focused I could easily see him being MVP of the Final Four. What a way that would be to end his KU career.
For sure. I will continue to give you props for being the first to lead the Tyshawn bandwagon.
Thanks. Btw, I was there for Withey too. You may have to change your avatar before he's through, lol.
Confidence is what we need and Tyshawn Taylor has plenty of it. Survive and advance!
I believe that TR has a better 3 point average.
It says of players shooting 20 or more, don't think T-Rob qualifies.
I think he's referring to Releford.
Very brief and often cryptic posts from KKelly suggest possible word subsidy on behalf of JayBate.
Go back up and check out the photo at the top of this article. The poor kid trying to guard TT is glued to the floor. He's not even gonna be in TT's periph vision. And the expression on his face looks like his ankles turned into jello from that burst of pure speed and power TT just laid on him.
I hate these type of articles right before the tournament. I can see the next headline, "Taylor Goes 0 for the Century from Behind the Arc"
And if We could defend the 3 pt shot...... We left the Baylor sharpshooter WIDE OPEN several times. Maybe just a little less swarming the guy with the ball way on the other side of the court leaving your man WIDE OPEN. Stealing the ball is cool , but sometimes a bad Idea ! I am not singling out any one player, but we do it a lot !
Someone needs to interview Joe Dooley after the season.
How does Tyshawn become a 42% trey shooter, while EJ and Conner crash to the 30s (or as either HEM, or ict, or both have suggested, neither ever had games stats supporting their 40% trey shooter reps)?
EJ and Conner have always had reps of awesome trey shooters in practice.
What is going on with these two? Injuries? fouled up mechanics? I have argued all season long, based on their practice reputations, and their superb mechanics, that they were streaky shooters that would average out at 40%. But this has not happened.
So: we have to ask what happened, Joe?
And how does Travis Releford go from a much improved stroke last year, to a decent stroke early this year, to what appears to be the most torturous form imaginable late this season? Is it the injuries?
And how the heck can KU be 26-7 with starters EJ shooting 32% and Travis shooting low 30s? And our 6ht man at 36%? Its increasingly amazing that teams guard them at all outside. Its like other teams figure that since KU has had lots of 40% guns on the perimeter the last few seasons, that Self would find some this season, too.
Has Self done a smoke and mirrors thing with the opposing coaches? Has he been talking about what good shooters EJ and Conner are, about how he isn't worried, about how they will come out of their slumps, so they keep guarding his hapless outside shooters? Has Self been pulling an Eisenhower and created a fake army of three point shooters? Are EJ and Conner really just inflatable three point shooting dolls like Eisenhower's inflatable Sherman tanks he kept at a fake base in Northern England to fool the Germans into thinking there was yet another army up north to think about?
Only one man--Tyshawn--is consistently stretching defenses by shooting 40%+ and he is often being asked to drive to the iron.
No wonder Thomas and Jeff often find it crowded inside.
If they re not inflatables, then EJ and Conner are going to have to find the range in the Madness, becauseTyshawn seems due for a slump some time over the next three weeks. He hasn't had one all season. He's been not only high percentage from trey all season, but incredibly timely too.
When Quantum T's slump comes, EJ and Conner have to man up. They have to. It is one and out now.
They won a conference title.
They made it to the Madness.
They are officially not kids anymore.
I know that there is a good chance losing Coach Dooley this year. If Wichita State loses Gregg Marshall to South Carolina my fear is that they will knock on Coach Danny Manning's door. I want the best for Coach Manning but I am not ready for him to be a Shocker.
Nebraska is in the hunt too.
How does Tyshawn become a 42% shooter? His broken hand heals. He always had a good stroke. Conner & EJ? HEM & ict were right. Being able to do in a game (not practice) is all that matters. Huge difference between game and practice.
TT never shot 40% with a good for two seasons.
Show me a freshman who shoots 40% from 3 and I'll show you a 1-and-done.
Dangit!!! I just admitted I read one of jaybate's posts!!!
Off topic, I just got on the ESPN page that asks to rank the #1 through #3 seeds.
It's going to be harder to push them down to 5th, where KU is now.
Our guards need to take shots as if they are trying to make shots. Sometimes it appears that they are just happy to hit rim. They cannot be satisfied with a "please don't let it be an airball" mentality. The ball needs to be shot with a "kick your heart out mentality".
Elijah Johnson has a unique skill set. He can shoot, pass, rebound, and dunk at a high level. His problem this year is like Tyshawn's in years past. It is not his team, so he must play the role that he is assigned to play this year, and that is to play shooting guard.
In past interviews Elijah has stated that he is a point guard. Being a highly rated point guard, the game does not feel quite right, when you are not running the show. If Elijah can embrace the role of shooting guard, then we can go far.
Conner Teahan, as much as I like him, the bright lights appear to be too big for him. I want him to prove me wrong and just light it up, but I just don't see it. I don't believe he scored the last two games. This is not said with malice or any hate. The games where he mostly excelled were in Allen Field House and usually we were up comfortably. There were a few games when he hit some good shots, but for the most part, the brighter the lights, the more he seemed to disappear. I would love to see him actually look for his shot and take his shot. He can shoot, he just needs to let it fly with confidence and may the other team pay. At this point in the season, when it is one and done, teams have studied film and they know who to go after. Conner, must be a threat to shoot the ball, if not we look like we are playing 4 on 5 out there, and that will not take us far.
Travis just needs to get back to his old slash and dash self. He is capable of going for 20 on any given night. Getting loose balls and put backs is something he does as well as anyone in the country.
As far as Tyshawn, this is his team and it is time to get it done. Distribute the ball and put the team in the best position to score, and I believe we can go far.
This group is a team and not a bunch of individuals, which is what I have really enjoyed about watching Kanas Basketball this year. This team has come a long way and hopefully this team will go really far in the tournament.
Its funny, but to me, outside of TT and TRob, CT is the only other guy who comes up big for big games. Travis and EJ only drop numbers on lesser teams. Conner had his biggest game in the biggest game of the season so far--MU. Without Conner coming up giant for 37 minutes against MU, this team has no title and is a 3-4 seed.
The Missouri game was in Lawrence, and that is the point that I am making. We all know what this young man is capable of in home games. I think he had a good game, but I would not say he had a giant game. Disagree with you on Travis and Elijah. I think they have had very good games against great competition.
I could be wrong but I do believe Conner was 6 for 6 for threeballs against Mizzou. this year. For that alone, I'll buy him lunch if I ever see him in a truckstop.
Xavier could shoot the 3 ball??? Fooled me, I guess.
42% seems pretty good to me.
falling in love with the three will lead to a bad ending for KU this year. we have to play to our strengths which is pounding it inside. we are just to inconsistent from the outside. Having said that, if we can get a good look from 3 by penetrating and dishing then thats a whole different kind of shot. When its all working its a thing of beauty, when its not, not so much.
Couldn't agree with you more KPOP. This team is built to feed our post beasts. Since we don't have a truly consistent 3 point shooter, our guards should be passing the ball more (with added attention to smart, not careless feeds) to free up a decent shot. The bigs need to be the first target, however, when they kick it back out, the kick needs to be more like a 10 foot range, not the 3 stripe to have a better success rate. All starts with great passing and realistic shot selection.
Would really like to see coach Self hire an assistant to just work on shot mechanics. Seems to me that our streaky shooting has been the detriment of our team for a few years now. Granted, the shallow bench has caused our players to be on the court for so much time in a game, that tired legs may have something to do with it, but from what I've noticed, the jerky shooting motion displayed by our guards with the exception of TT will continue to be a thorn in our paw. Not saying that I could ever do any better, but I see that some continued attention to good mechanics will pay off great dividends for us as we continue. Seems we have the defensive tools to stay with any team in the country...just need to shore up offensive production. RCJGKU!
Hinrich begot Miles, Miles begot Chalmers, Chalmers begot Collins, Collins begot Taylor and Taylor will begot Johnson.
We will be talking about Elijah in these same glowing terms next year at this time as he will make the 2012-2013 team his own as each of the gentlemen did before him in their last year.
"We're gonna be good....real, real good!!"
I hope we go "Old Testament" on Detroit tomorrow Brother Oakville. Amen.
Well crap- Davidson just crapped my bracket. Last time I support them.
Just because they whipped KU doesn't mean they can knock off a top BE team, LOL!
By the look of your avatar, you must be pretty adept at making that formation with your lips.
Why are we asking Tyshawn to analyze his shot the day before a pressure game? Leave him alone. This is no time to be "thinking about your shot." Please...no thinking right now. Shooting and thinking about shot mechanics is for the off season. The only thing to think about now is "taking the shot" when it is there. Let'm play. Go play and have fun. Let us Nervous Nellie fans analyze, criticize and fret. Heck, I can't even watch the games live during the NCAA. I have to go to a movie or a walk while it records. We win...I watch. We lose, life goes on. I really need a life and a therapist this time of year. The game is more than 24 hours away and I'm a nervous wreck.
No $hit! Thank you, mikehawk!

The continuing and growing chatter on doing business in Cuba is reaching epic proportions. It has become the "flavor of the month" (and will continue to be) among entrepreneurs, investors, exporters, importers, financiers and U.S. multinational companies. It is understandable. After 56 years of isolation from American commercial relations, the bilateral movement to restore diplomatic relations has created hope that normal business activity is right around the corner. Fantasies abound of a pre-revolutionary market economy where flourishing trade and investment and an explosion of tourist activity including casino gambling will rule supreme.
Time for a reality check, however. The new, the novel, the exotic, the previously forbidden fruit may appear to be the most tantalizing, but objective criteria should form the true template from which to measure all business decisions. The incremental and marginal changes in trade with Cuba are just that–they do not represent a wide open door. To date, the most profitable businesses dealing with Cuba are those that put on conferences and seminars on doing business in Cuba. And the majority of these events are seances of pure speculation, since the true experts on doing business in Cuba (those doing business in Cuba today) would not dare speak honestly and openly for fear of being harrassed (or worse) by the Cuban government.
Don't get me wrong–I am all for doing business in and with Cuba once U.S. law is changed to permit that. I believe that the prospects for U.S.-Cuba are great, indeed. However, right now–in the here and now–American entrepreneurs and small companies, especially, need to consider what is known in economics as opportunity costs–whereby the same amount of time, energy, and money will reap a greater return elsewhere. The Dominican Republic and Panama are cases in point and solid benchmarks for comparison since they are also located in the Caribbean Basin region. In the first instance, besides agriculture similar to Cuba's, the Dominican Republic's non-agricultural substantial, including textiles, medical devices and footwear. The country has over 2000 manufacturing firms and hosts 112 call centers and 64 industrial parks it with 610 companies. Its tourism sector is its crown jewel, generating over $6 billion in annual income. The most-visited destination in the Caribbean, the DR attracted over 5 million tourists last year. Its first-rate tourism infrastructure comprises a welcoming and well-trained cadre of hospitality workers. Competition from Cuba will be challenging but certainly not a serious threat. A beneficiary of the DR-CAFTA trade agreement with the U.S., the nation's $61 billion economy will expand about 6 percent this year, up from a previous forecast of 5 percent. Foreign direct investment, which will exceed $2.3 billion this year, totals over $30 billion and has grown 245% during the last decade.
As for Panama, also a signatory of a free trade agreement with the U.S., the nation is located outside the hurricane zone and poised to benefit hugely from the $5.25 billion expansion of the Panama Canal. With a currency pegged to the U.S. dollar, the country is a bustling hub for trade and logistics, real estate, finance and banking as well as business processing (outsourcing, call center operations), and sports an exciting nightlife, casinos, beaches, and ecotourism and indigenous culture. Attracting over $5 billion in U.S. FDI, Panama's pro-business environment has lured scores to establish regional headquarters there, including Johnson & Johnson, Caterpillar Inc. and Procter & Gamble Co. Panama ranks #38 out of 189 countries by the World Bank for ease of starting and business, #17 or accessing credit, and #9 for trading across borders.
Among the key prerequisites for traders and investors are a stable environment characterized by the rule of law, a transparent and efficient legal and administrative system, access to credit, respect for contracts and property rights, dispute settlement mechanisms and customers with buying power. Cuba comes up short on all of these. The DR and Panama combined are one-third larger than Cuba; and whereas the average monthly wage in Cuba is $20, it is $363 in the DR and $541 in Panama.
Cuba is a long-term play, much like investing in an empty lot in a neighborhood in transition versus opening a luxury retail store today in a high-end shopping center. Big companies and investor groups with billions in assets can afford to invest in Cuba now for the future; for all others, there are more immediate opportunities elsewhere.
Former Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan, in a 1996 televised speech, referred to the continued overvaluation of stocks as "irrational exuberance" — an apt expression today in the wake of President Barack Obama's Dec. 17th announcement of a policy to normalize relations with Cuba.
It is wishful thinking to believe that the renewal of diplomatic relations with Cuba will lead to removal of the U.S. trade embargo with that nation. Only Congress can suspend the Helms-Burton Act — a law that requires a transition to democracy in Cuba, restitution of confiscated property of U.S. citizens and the absence from power of both Castro brothers.
Remittances and financial services. Under the new agreement, the limit on remittances from Cuban-Americans to family in Cuba will be raised from $500 to $2,000 per quarter, and remittance forwarders will no longer require a specific license. Remittance levels are currently $2 billion, so the potential injection of four times as much capital into the Cuban economy would be huge. The Cuban government also would win big, because it charges a "processing fee" of 10 percent on all remittances. With their Venezuelan ATM "temporarily out or order" and neither Russia nor China able to whip out their checkbooks, Raúl Castro needs hard currency desperately.
Tourism. New rules still prohibit U.S. citizens from traveling to Cuba, except for those who fall within 12 currently existing categories; however, those permitted to do so, will no longer need to seek formal approval from Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control. Were the embargo to be lifted, the IMF predicts both winners and losers in Caribbean tourism. "Curiosity tourism" to Cuba would surge, with prices rising and Cuban infrastructure, at capacity already, unable to accommodate the large influx. U.S. travel to Cuba would probably be a "one-off" — that is, not a repeat destination like the Dominican Republic where price, quality and service are far superior to Cuba's.
Trade. The U.S. and Cuba do have a trade relationship; however, it is restricted primarily to agricultural commodities and products, medicines and health care products. However, U.S. commodity exports to Cuba have declined by nearly 57 percent during the last six years. Under the Obama plan, U.S. firms would be permitted to export building supplies, inputs for small farmers, and products that Cuban entrepreneurs could use to establish small businesses. Removal of the embargo in its entirety could create huge opportunities for telecom equipment and a wide range of industrial exports from the U.S. and selected Cuban imports (e.g., rum, cigars).
One big caveat, however: Who is going to finance trade with Cuba and under what terms? Without U.S government guarantees (the Export-Import Bank or Small Business Administration) for trade financing and insurance, neither banks nor companies will extend credit to a nation that is notorious for failing to make good on its loans. And one should not forget that all import, wholesale and retail operations must go through Cuban state companies, all controlled by the military, that will earn a windfall of revenue in both tariffs and mark-ups on goods for final sale.
Access and affordability of goods. Cubans can buy a wide range of imported goods — providing they are available and affordable (doubtful on both counts). Samsung products (South Korea), Toshiba laptops (Japan), Adidas athletic shoes (Germany), Diesel jeans (Italy) as well as gray market goods coming from third countries can be purchased. But at what price? The average annual income in Cuba is $240. It is seven times greater in the Dominican Republic, nearly five times more in Haiti, and 15 times more in Jamaica. So even without the embargo, how attractive is the Cuban consumer market — a market where the monthly wage is equal to one Cohiba cigar?

Wyckoff Seed's 84-year run coming to an end
Published 2:20 am Wednesday, February 21, 2001
INCREDIBLE RIDE n Jewel Wyckoff, owner of Wyckoff Seed Co., ran the business for 29 years with her late husband, Bill. The store will close later this month after 84 years in business. Photo by Paula Merritt/The Meridian Star.

Much like the seeds and seedlings which graced the gardens of thousands of customers, Wyckoff Seed Co. grew and thrived thanks to the tender care and hard work given by its owners.
But now, after 84 years in business, Wyckoff Seed Co. is preparing to close for good.
Owner Jewel Wyckoff, who ran the business for 29 years with her late husband, Bill, says the store can no longer compete with retail giants such as Wal-Mart, which can afford to sell seeds and plants much more cheaply.
Since Bill's death last year, Jewel Wyckoff decided to sell the property. The sale will be finalized on Feb. 28, when a Southern Sportsman store takes over the building.
Although the seed store may be preparing to close, Wyckoff admits it's been an incredible ride for a country store that started out as a dairy store in 1917, when it was opened by Bill's father. Once Bill Wyckoff returned home from World War II he transformed the dairy into a seed store after taking horticulture classes at Mississippi State University.
For the next 50 years the Wyckoff Seed Co. became synonymous with friendly service, a knowledgeable staff and most of all downtown Meridian.
Running a successful business for decades might have been draining for average people, but Wyckoff says the ability to carry on for so long was the result of a strong bond between her and her husband.
For years the store that sold seed, fertilizer and insecticide also served as a gathering place for friends of the couple and other residents who would often make time to stop and share coffee and information with the pair.
Jewel Wyckoff says she and her husband were well aware the seed store business was changing because new generations the so-called dot.comers" weren't gardeners.
For the past few months though Wyckoff has put aside her sadness at closing the fixture downtown in order to say good bye to the customers who supported the business for generations.

Autism-Products.com proudly introduces the Sportime Physio-Roll Exercise Ball (33 inch – Red)!
I am using the 33 inch physio roll for a 100 lb dog's rehab from elbow surgery. My rehab specialist uses the same to stengthen core muscles. My k9 actually stands on top of it while I hold it. By shifting the roll side to side, it forces his core muscles to take over..Great durable product as well..Shipping was fast and Kelley's autism products had the best price I could find.

I work until 3:30 on weekdays and am available after that time, and am almost always available on weekends!
I have recently moved here from England (where I have one fat, angry cat) and I have experience looking after dogs of all sizes- very large, small, medium, extra small etc.
I miss being around animals, and as I can't yet get a dog of my own- why not help other people with theirs! I am not at all bothered by dog poop, love walking and am extra good at playing fetch. I will also take fabulous pictures of your dog whilst we are walking as I believe that taking pictures of your pets is extremely important, all the time.
I live close to parc Lafontaine so will happily take your dog there if you are close enough.

The global concerns about the coronavirus could so touch human hearts that the pressure ignites a revival of the rest and security that comes through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Times of crisis and brokenness encourage times of revival and awakening.
(Photo: Saddleback Church/Tommy Huynh)
Gasoline engines use sparks to ignite fuel and form combustion in the engine. A spark is one way for God to ignite a combustion of revival. And the Holy Spirit does use sparks.
But there is another way to create combustion in an engine. Diesel engines use PRESSURE to ignite fuel and form combustion.
Revivals sometimes combust more like diesel than gasoline – because of intense pressure. God brings revivals out of great crisis and brokenness.
"The heart of man plans his way,
but the Lord establishes his steps." - Proverbs 16:9, ESV
The turnaround of a generation through the Jesus Movement in California in the late 1960s and early 1970s came out of the crisis and brokenness of young people exhausted with drugs and sex and conflict. Thousands of kids began organically coming to Jesus for healing and hope out of their brokenness.
Many of us are familiar with the brokenness that may occur at times in our lives through crises. But nations and movements can also follow this same pattern on a larger scale.
We can periodically become comfortable and successful in our own minds. But when a crisis erupts, it brings confrontation with fear.
"[Jesus and the disciples] got into a boat and began to cross over to the other side of the lake. And Jesus, exhausted, fell asleep. Suddenly a violent storm developed, with waves so high the boat was about to be swamped. Yet Jesus continued to sleep soundly. The disciples woke him up, saying, 'Save us, Lord! We're going to die!'" - Matthew 8:23-25, TPT
This fear confrontation often becomes a pathway to faith. No longer can we get away with neutrality. We must either believe that God is good, and we are His beloved, or not.
"But Jesus reprimanded them. 'Why are you gripped with fear? Where is your faith?' Then he stood up and rebuked the storm and said, 'Be still!' And instantly it became perfectly calm. The disciples were astonished by this miracle and said to one another, 'Who is this Man? Even the wind and waves obey his Word.'" - Matthew 8:26-27, TPT
Faith leads us to believe that God loves us even in crisis. When that "faith-life" occurs in us, it opens our lives to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. We encounter the salvation of Jesus Christ giving up His life for ours on the cross and giving us the righteousness of God in our resurrection with Him.
"But the righteous shall live by his faith." - Habakkuk 2:4, ESV
Faith becomes an expression of God's perfect will in our lives – which is for us to be with Him. Faith does not always remove the affliction or stop the maelstrom, but it brings wisdom from above, rest in the midst of crisis and joy that can be in our hearts even when circumstances are dire, all because we are near to our Savior.
"Now, because of you, Lord, I will lie down in peace and sleep comes at once, for no matter what happens, I will live unafraid!" - Psalm 4:8, TPT
In communion, the goodness of the Father by the power of the Holy Spirit in Jesus becomes all that we can see clearly. Everything else pales in comparison to His goodness, even amid the Coronavirus.
"Perfect, absolute peace surrounds those whose imaginations are consumed with you; they confidently trust in you." - Isaiah 26:3, TPT
This is how revival can completely ignite the human soul (and entire societies) like a diesel engine. And, when diesel combusts, it burns longer and hotter than gasoline. The long, hot fires of revival are beginning to explode the nations with the light of God's love during the darkness of a pandemic.

Police Seek Suspects Who Left Confederate Flags Near MLK's Atlanta Church
Bradford Hanson (Editor) · 31 July, 2015
Apparently the Confederate flag is now joining the ancient swastika as a criminalized symbol, and, judging by this hysterical media report, with an effect on Jews and their sycophants similar to the legendary effect of Wolfsbane on vampires.
FEDERAL AUTHORITIES are investigating Confederate flags that were left early Thursday around two historic sites in Atlanta.
Surveillance video captured two white males placing the rebel banners around the campus of the Ebenezer Baptist Church and the Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change, Atlanta Police Chief George Turner said at a news conference.
At least four flags were found. Authorities have not determined what charges, if any, would be filed, but they have not ruled out the stunt as a possible hate crime.
"We have taken physical evidence and are doing analysis right now," Turner said.
One of the flags was placed underneath a sign in the window of Ebenezer Baptist — a historic black church where King once preached — that reads, "Black Lives Matter." The slogan has become a rallying cry in the past year following high-profile cases of police brutality in minority communities.
Another flag was placed on the path to the MLK Visitor Center.
Rev. Raphael Warnock of Ebenezer Baptist Church called the flags a "hateful act."
"This is a sickening and troubling and provocative act," Warnock told NBC News. "Coming on the heels of the Charleston massacre … you have to take something like this seriously."
Dylann Roof, the white man who fatally shot nine parishioners at a historically black church in Charleston, South Carolina, posted photos online posing with Confederate flags. South Carolina lawmakers also moved to take down the flag from the Statehouse earlier this month.
Atlanta authorities say they have strong evidence to help find the suspects. The surveillance video is also expected to be released soon.
Church officials said King considered Ebenezer Baptist, which was founded in 1886, his home.
"To place a Confederate flag on our campus is a political statement," Warnock added. "When we are afraid, when we are concerned, church is where we go. We need to get together now more than ever."

This could be a "false flag" operation with the intent to make the confederate flag a "hate symbol". This is the way Jews operate by painting swastikas on their synagogues and tombstones and then complaining about "anti-Semitism".
Christopher Strenta
Now I get it: blacks are given space to "destroy" if they wish, but place a confederate flag on a pathway, and it's a potential hate crime. This is bad.
2 July, 2020 1:00 am
"To place a Confederate flag on our campus is a political statement," Warnock added. "When we are afraid, when we are concerned, church is where we go. We need to get together now more than ever." Are we to understand that Warnock opposes political statements in the land of the free? During the civil war Jews financed both sides of the conflict. They were unbiased.

Diploceraspis es un género extinto de lepospóndilos que vivieron en lo que hoy es Ohio a comienzos del período Pérmico. Al igual que el género Diplocaulus, presentaban largos cuernos tabulares proyectados posteolateralmente, los cuales dan la impresión de un cráneo en forma de búmeran. Estas estructuras, ausentes en los individuos juveniles,se desarrollaban a medida que crecían.

LDWF Makes Case For Black Bear Killed in St. Mary Parish
Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries enforcement agents cited two Louisiana men for alleged Louisiana Black Bear violations in St. Mary Parish.
Agents cited Cody J. Charpentier, 31, of Glencoe, and Bailey Rogers, 21, of Youngsville, for taking and/or possessing a black bear during a closed season and intentional concealment of wildlife.
Agents received a tip that Charpentier had shot and killed a Louisiana black bear on Nov. 12, 2017 in St. Mary Parish. Charpentier and Rogers then moved the bear from the kill site six miles to a field off of Hwy. 83 near Glencoe that night.
On April 30, agents acquired a search warrant for Charpentier's residence, handheld global positioning system (GPS) and cell phone. Agents were able to use the cell phone and GPS to track where Charpentier was on the night of Nov. 12.
Agents used the GPS and cell phone to track Charpentier's location from the kill site to the location of a black bear skeleton and claws in the mitigation field.
Agents seized Charpentier's 7 mm rifle in connection with the case.
Taking or possessing a black bear during a closed season and intentional concealment of wildlife each brings a $900 to $950 fine and up to 120 days in jail. The men may also face up to $10,000 in civil restitution for the replacement value of the illegally taken bear.
The bear in this case is not tied to the other two illegally killed black bears that were found earlier this year in St. Mary Parish. Agents are still looking for leads for the killing of two black bears that were discovered on Feb. 14 off of Humble Canal 10 miles south of Franklin. If anyone has information about these two bears, please call the Louisiana Operation Game Thief Hotline at 1-800-442-2511 to qualify for up to a $5,500 reward.
The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries is charged with managing and protecting Louisiana's abundant natural resources. For more information, visit us at www.wlf.la.gov

Volunteering For Homeless Charities In Doncaster
Why Volunteer For A Homeless Charity In Doncaster?
Homelessness is an issue facing the entire country, but Doncaster is an area that has been particularly affected. While rates of rough sleeping have climbed steadily in almost all of the UK, Doncaster now has the worst rate of homelessness in the Yorkshire region, with 1 in every 642 people in the area living on the streets.
The good news is that, despite the scale of the challenge facing Doncaster, there are some wonderful organisations in the area that are helping to turn the tide. If you're looking to make a difference in your community, consider volunteering in Doncaster with one of these deserving charities.
Homeless Charities In Doncaster That Need Your Help
YMCA Doncaster
YMCA is a world-renowned charity that has supported vulnerable young people for decades, helping thousands upon thousands of those to reach their full potential as they journey into adulthood. You can find a branch of the organisation in Doncaster, where it does excellent work with the town's most vulnerable young people.
One thing the charity provides locally is supported accommodation for up to 30 people at any one time. This runs alongside extensive support services, including advice and training around finding a suitable home, and handling the responsibilities of adulthood. This incredible work helps take young people off our streets, and in many cases, stops them ending up there in the first place.
If you'd like to volunteer with YMCA Doncaster, there are several ways to go about it. There's the dedicated charity shop, at the centre of town on Wood Street, which is staffed by a team of passionate volunteers. Open Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays between 10am and 4pm, why not offer an extra pair of hands for stocktaking or working behind the till?
YMCA Doncaster also asks that people fundraise on its behalf, taking part in community charity events in the town and beyond. In March of each year, it even runs a sponsored sleep out fundraiser that you could get involved with.
How Can You Show Your Support?
If you'd like to get volunteering and fundraising to make a different in your community, see what's happening nearby by using our Local Causes directory.
You'll also be helping when you play People's Postcode Lottery. 32% of the ticket price goes directly to thousands of deserving causes.
