Q: Calculating percent overlap between polygon shapefile and grid using QGIS I want to calculate what percentage of each grid square is covered by part of a polygon shapefile in QGIS. So far I can get a column of whether a grid square touches the polygon or not (0 or 1), but I want to know the percent overlapped in each cell. Grid is in red, polygon is in yellow.
Perhaps join features?

A: In Processing Toolbox, search for Overlap analysis and you will find the tool that will do what you want:

From the tool help:

This algorithm calculates the area and percentage cover by which
features from an input layer are overlapped by features from a
selection of overlay layers. New attributes are added to the output
layer reporting the total area of overlap and percentage of the input
feature overlapped by each of the selected overlay layers.

Consumer behavior has shifted. What troubles me, is that marketers have been aware of this shift for some time now, and some of us still fail to adapt to the ways our customers want to experience the buying journey.
To better illustrate my thoughts, I've chosen to deliver them at the expense of the stereotypical used car salesman we are all familiar with. I think we can agree that used car shopping isn't an experience we are all eager to embark on and a lot of that has to do with the tactics conducted by the salespeople. The same thing can be true of your online marketing tactics.
"This vehicle has 85k miles, leather seats, Bluetooth connectivity, and acrylic paint." We do this all too often. Listing the features of your product/service instead of highlighting the benefits.
We get it — your product has features. But what does that mean for me, the buyer? Not much, unless I'm a very knowledgeable consumer and am willing to connect the dots on my own.
Alternatively, tell your prospects why your product will be beneficial to them. For example, if you're a SaaS provider, your website homepage may showcase all of the features of the program. This is common but not optimal. Instead of just listing those features, identify how they help solve problems your consumers may be challenged with. Instead of "Dedicated Server" say "99.9% Uptime." Make sense?
Another tactic leveraged by our stereotypical used car salesman is to use language that is unfamiliar to the average consumer. These may include specifications like horsepower, drivetrain, suspension, torque, braking systems, etc. I understand that these are all very important considerations that are often taken into account when purchasing a vehicle. However, if the car salesman tells you a specific model has a torque of 200 Nm, will you have any idea what that means? For the average car shopper, the answer is no.
Many online marketers fall into the same trap. On our websites, we often use language that many of our prospects are unfamiliar with. Instead, I'd suggest presenting the information on your site using language that is digestible to more than a few of your audience members. However, don't forget to include a link to more in-depth product details or specifications for the individuals looking for more info.
Used car salesmen tend to control the pace of the conversation and the buying experience as a whole. This is part of the reason people feel so vulnerable when they shop for a used car. It is difficult to feel empowered when the salesman is dominating each step of the process.
Frankly, this is a major contributor towards the shift in consumer behavior. Now, on average, consumers go through 70%-90% of the buyer journey before contacting a vendor. That's directly related to shoppers' desire to control the pace of the journey. Online research/shopping allows your audience to do that with ease.
Think about a retail store. You walk in and a service rep immediately walks up to you and says "Can I help you find anything?" Most of the time, you'll respond with "I'm just looking." That's because you want to control the pace of your shopping experience.
Used car salesmen tend to be more aggressive and demand that you fit into their forceful process. If you are too pushy with your online customer experience or sales processes, people will lose trust. Your website doesn't have to always be closing, ABC as some would say — instead it should always be educating, ABE.
This is a common tactic of used car salesmen, and frankly many salesmen. You pose a question about a specific vehicle and instead of an honest, helpful answer, you receive a response that fails to provide you with what you were looking for. Rather, they treat your question like an objection and focus on resolving it.
Consumers can experience the same manipulation when browsing around the internet. They may end up on a web page looking for an answer to a question, and are presented with unapplicable sales jargon.
If I go to a pricing page, I want to see information on pricing. I want transparency. I don't want "Our solutions are less expensive than our competitors." In this example, the website is assuming price is going to be an objection I make and they rush to the resolution. It's not. I just wanted real information.
"Hurry on down!" "Buy Today!" "Unheard of Savings!" Today's consumer doesn't react to these messages the same way shoppers did 10-20 years ago. Especially millennial shoppers. I'd encourage you to avoid the common buzzwords entirely — we've heard them too frequently and they're easy to drown out.
Now, that's not to say that urgency and scarcity aren't great marketing/sales tactics to be employed. Those are principles of selling and proven to be effective. I'm more focused on the way this information is presented. You don't need to have a blinking light on your website that says "Hurry! Buy Now!" to create a feeling of urgency for your consumers. Instead, it could be as simple as, "Only 3 spots left" at the bottom of your webinar sign-up form. That feels authentic and honest to the visitor, something valued in today's market.

Past Exhibition: Goya's Last Works
Go to Exhibition Menu Goya's Last Works
Goya's Last Works
Goya's understated portrait of the woman known as María Martínez de Puga, acquired by Henry Clay Frick in 1914, was the inspiration for The Frick Collection's special exhibition Goya's Last Works. It was the first show in the United States to concentrate exclusively on the final phase of Goya's long career — the years of the artist's voluntary exile in Bordeaux from 1824 to 1828. Fifty-one examples of Goya's final production were borrowed from public and private European and North American collections. This ensemble of drawings, paintings, miniatures on ivory, and lithographs demonstrated the vitality and irrepressible creativity of an artist who, at age seventy-eight, pulled up roots in Madrid, his home for the preceding half century, and started over in France.
Goya's departure from Spain was prompted by Ferdinand VII's restoration to the throne in 1823 and the brutal repression of Liberals that followed. Settling in the vibrant port city of Bordeaux, Goya found companionship among friends old and new in a large community of Spanish exiles. There he created a brilliant coda to the significant body of work he had produced in Spain for both royal patrons and proponents of the Enlightenment. Included in the exhibition were eight portraits on canvas dating from 1820 to 1827, which reveal the technical freedom, daring simplicity, and penetrating insight into character that typify his final works in this genre. They were complemented by a group of extraordinary miniature paintings on tiny plaques of ivory, executed in a technique of Goya's own invention. A selection of lithographs, including the series of four prints known as the Bulls of Bordeaux — considered the first masterpieces of the new medium — demonstrated his restless will to experiment and expand the boundaries of his art, despite advanced age and poor health. Drawings from Goya's two Bordeaux albums allowed the viewer to follow his unedited thoughts — his reminiscences of Spain; witty observations of Bordeaux's street life; preoccupation with longstanding themes of human folly, madness, and witchcraft; and indulgence in pure fantasy—and attest to his unflagging imagination and powerful will to sustain his life through art.
Goya's Last Works was organized by Jonathan Brown, Carroll and Milton Petrie Professor of the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University, and Frick Curator Susan Grace Galassi. Goya's Last Works was accompanied by a full-color catalogue published by Yale University Press.
Principal funding for the exhibition was provided by the Robert Lehman Foundation, with major support from Merrill Lynch; Melvin R. Seiden in honor of Jonathan Brown and Susan Grace Galassi; The Widgeon Point Charitable Foundation; Mr. and Mrs. Walter A. Eberstadt; The Samuel H. Kress Foundation; and The Getty Grant Program of The J. Paul Getty Trust. The catalogue was generously underwritten by Lawrence and Julie Salander and made possible, in part, by Furthermore: A Program of the J. M. Kaplan Fund. Support for scholarly programming was provided by the Arthur Ross Foundation. Additional support was provided by The Helen Clay Frick Foundation and the Fellows of The Frick Collection.
This exhibition was also supported by an indemnity from the Federal Council on the Arts and Humanities.

From what makes us right or left-handed to why we develop autism, there are many mysteries about the human brain we are yet to solve.
Some of these questions can be answered by studying the brains of other animals like mice, for example.
But this isn't possible for other phenomena that are unique to human brains.
Researchers are now growing hundreds of tiny human brains in labs, in an attempt to understand what gives us unique disorders like autism and schizophrenia – and the method they use to create these brains is surprisingly simple.
'Organoids', three to four millimetres across, have a structure similar to that of an immature human brain.
Just like a normal brain, the organoids are divided into grey matter, made up of neurons, and white matter, a fatty tissue composed of their spindly 'tails'.
Each is also composed of specific regions, like the human brain.
But they look nothing like a brain, instead they are watery blobs floating in pale liquid.
Scientists across the world are developing cerebral organoids, or mini brains, to solve a variety of problems.
Many of these groups are trying to understand other complex neurological diseases that are unique to humans, like autism and schizophrenia.
One such researcher is Madeline Lancaster, who works at the Medical Research Council (MRC) Laboratory of Molecular Medicine in Cambridge.
The brains are created using cells. The team uses skin cells but, they could start with any cell type.
'The brains develop in the same way you would see in an embryo,'Dr Lancaster told BBC Future.
They turn these cells into stem cells, using proteins, and as these grow, brain cells begin to develop.
The researchers starve the cells and, for an unknown reason, the brain cells seem to be the most robust ones, so they survive.
These brain cells are placed in a special jelly and put into an incubator.
The researchers in Dr Lancaster's lab are using these brains to study a variety of conditions.
'Our current interests focus on other neurodevelopmental disorders like autism and intellectual disability, by introducing mutations seen in these disorders and examining their roles in pathogenesis in the context of organoid development,' Dr Lancaster says on her project page.
HOW TO MAKE A BRAIN The brains are created using human cells as a starting point. The team uses skim cells but, they could start with any cell type.
These brain cells are placed in a special jelly and popped into an incubator.
The first 'brain in a bottle' was grown by stem cell scientists in 2013, who hoped it would lead to treatments for neurological and mental diseases.
The 'organoids', three to four millimetres across, have a structure similar to that of an immature human brain.
Professor Juergen Knoblich, of the Institute of Molecular Biotechnology in Vienna, derived the iPS cells (induced pluripotent stem cells) from the connective tissue of a patient with microcephaly.
This is a rare but devastating genetic disorder in which brain size is dramatically reduced, leaving the sufferer with severe mental disability.
Like many neurological conditions, the disease has been difficult to study in mice because they do not share the same brain complexity as us.
The team used a 3D matrix scaffold that mimics the environment of a human embryo and special lab devices, called spinning bio reactors, which produce nutrients and oxygen, to grow the brains.
'Ultimately, we would like to use them to study more common disorders like schizophrenia or autism as it has been shown the underlying defects occur during the development of the brain,' Professor Knoblich said at the time.
The original goal was to produce a biological tool that can be used to investigate the workings of the brain, better understand brain diseases, and test new drugs.
The goal for many researchers is to develop a brain exactly like a human's.
But some researchers say this would be a step too far.
Dr Martin Coath, from the Cognition Institute at the University of Plymouth, questioned why anyone would ever want to create a 'real' human brain.
'A human brain that was 'fully working' would be conscious, have hopes, dreams, feel pain, and would ask questions about what we were doing to it,' he said.
'Something we have grown in the lab, but on a much simpler level than a human brain, might be hooked up to electronic eyes, ears, and hands and be taught to do something – maybe something that is as sophisticated as many simple living creatures.


for something we won't have, so somebody will someday.
This semester, I'm a Teaching Fellow for CS 161, Operating Systems, taught by the legendary Margo Seltzer, former president of USENIX, advisor to Harvard WiCS, and mother of two.
Making Zittrain's comment a little more concrete, messaging app WhatsApp would run afoul of Cameron's proposed securities policies, as will Snapchat and recent versions of the iPhone.
Speaking on Monday, the Prime Minister asked whether "we want to allow a means of communication between two people which, even in extemis with a signed warrant from the Home Secretary personally, that we cannot read?
Let's be very clear here -- we're talking about programs so basic, I've been asked to code them as a homework exercise twice, once in an undergraduate math course for sophomores (and the other time, in an applied-math course that, intentions aside, I was taking as a sophomore). Maybe I'll do it again, as a way to get back into the habit of programming in C, in preparation for 161. And then I'll post it here, in violation of what, if sensible Brits aren't careful, could be UK laws.
Then again, if you're accessing https://blog.rossry.net/, you may be breaking those laws anyway. I dunno, I'm not a lawyer, and certainly not a British lawyer.
Speaking on Monday, the Prime Minister asked whether "we want to allow a lock on a private residence which, even in extemis with a signed warrant from the Home Secretary, that we cannot break?
"My answer to that question is no, we must not. The first duty of any government is to keep our country and our people safe."


THE Pope's representative in Ireland has lashed out at what he says is a "negative" view of the Catholic Church here – and believes it is in much better shape than many believe.
Papal Nuncio Charles Brown called on Irish Catholics "not to be cowed into silence by the pressure of the scandals and negative media reports".
He continued: "In spite of everything, there is still a bedrock of faith in Ireland."
Next month, the nuncio will celebrate his first year in Ireland.
The Vatican is keen to repair the church's image here after the damaging child-abuse scandals of recent years.
Since his arrival, Archbishop Brown has dispensed with the traditional background role of nuncios in Ireland and stepped firmly into the public eye by travelling extensively throughout the country and not shying away from media engagement.
He said: "I believe it is very important for the nuncio to be very visible and available to everybody . . . so I wanted to listen to everybody and to see for myself what is going on."
The 52-year-old New Yorker, who was interviewed for 'The Irish Catholic' newspaper, said he was optimistic about the future of the Catholic Church in Ireland and insisted that this was based on what he had seen on the ground.
Archbishop Brown said: "If we listen to certain segments of the media, all we get is an unending avalanche of negativity. But if you go out to parishes and talk to people and meet the priests and see what is happening, you get an entirely different picture. You get a picture of vitality, of great courage and great hope."
He added that priests remained key to the future of the Catholic Church here.
"There are challenges obviously but there is also vitality and there is faith here," he said.
"People believe, and that is fundamental. If I can nourish that and help make it flourish, I will have done my job."
The church will face a renewed challenge in 2013 as the debate on abortion legislation continues to rage.
Archbishop of Dublin Diarmuid Martin has revealed that he has already received a personal threat linked to the abortion controversy.
The Archbishop of Armagh, Cardinal Sean Brady, used his Christmas message to call for a campaign on the abortion issue.
At a time when some are telling the church to stay out of public discourse, the nuncio said people should not "retreat into a very private faith".
He said he would like to see Catholics "not afraid to express their faith in the public square".


IBM iX's offices are not what one would expect from the company.
In March 2017 Gartner named IBM iX a leader in global digital marketing agencies, giving it high marks for agility, collaboration, strong creative and design capabilities, and its expertise in data and analytics.
The creative and design division has gradually built itself into the largest digital agency in the world, with more than 10,000 employees and is growing its global activities with clients.
The new division of the IT giant made waves in the advertising industry in 2016 with the acquisition of three creative agencies - Ecx.io, Resource Ammirati, and Aperto — in the space of one week.
In an interview with Business Insider in IBM's London office Alison Clark, associate partner at iX said: "We are competing, to a certain degree, shoulder to shoulder with traditional creative agencies, in certain areas. We don't operate in the same way agencies do."
iX works with major clients including Nestle, Unilever, Audi and General Motors. It doesn't want to do the same work as an advertising agency. Instead it wants to combine all of the IT divisions in the company and tie them into creative work.
"There's a big difference in how we can build something, solution something, and design something because IBM has all of this heritage in the moving parts of a business' IT that often advertising agencies or creative groups don't have that insight into," Clark said.
It's also how the majority of clients have come to iX, she explained. Many of their clients came to them through other divisions of the IT firm.
Consulting companies Deloitte and Accenture have made similar moves, by growing their creative divisions and providing additional services to their existing clients. At the same time ad agencies, like like Interpublic's R/GA, have rapidly growing consulting divisions to keep up.
IBM iX associate partner Alison Clark.
Clark, whose division will regularly work together with the business consulting and systems architecture teams at IBM, said it's the nature of the way the business has evolved. She said technology has become an integral part of marketing.
This shift ends up being a big benefit for clients, she said, because any creative work is also connected to the other parts of their business and can be managed by a single external partner.
"We don't operate in the same way that agencies do. We never go after individual clients. You go after the space you want to play in and where there's a gap. You look for the opportunities to fill that gap," Clark said.
She acknowledged iX often came up against traditional ad agencies when working with clients. The agency prefers clients that have come in through its IT services door to avoid the endless pitching sessions common for agencies.
The shift towards creative production work was a natural one for IBM, which was already one of the leading providers of marketing cloud software and one of the main CRM software providers, following its 2010 acquisition of marketing software Unica for $480 million.
Earlier this year IBM announced it had been using its artificial intelligence system Watson to target consumers in programmatic ad buys, in the process significantly reducing its costs and would be taking that capability to clients.
The only thing missing was a capacity to produce creative work, which it now has in iX.
"We're at the forefront. When the bigger parts of IBM want to show the new IBM, they come here. They bring clients in here and they say 'it is different, there are different ways to do things'," Clark said. "And as soon as people walk in here they realize it doesn't feel the same and it's not what you would have expected from IBM."
It also doesn't employ the people one would normally expect to be working at IBM. The division has hired away creative talent from agencies owned by the big five agency holding groups and design firms. Clark herself previously worked at WPP-owned branding agency RAPP and was managing partner at Havas Helia before that.
Bob Lord, another big hire for IBM, also came from the advertising world. Lord ran the Publicis-owned Razorfish and became IBM's first chief digital officer.
Bob Lord, IBM chief digital officer.
In an interview with Business Insider he said: "I think the only way you can get business done now, is you can't think about technology and marketing separate from each other."
He said his background as the former head of an advertising agency allowed him to approach IBM with a new strategic point of view. As the company's chief digital officer he works with CEO Ginni Rometty and has helped pivot the company in a new direction focused on artificial intelligence.
"With augmented intelligence and cognitive computing there is so much that can be done in the marketing space to provide an increased value exchange to the consumer," he said.
Lord said he already began seeing a shift at Razorfish towards the increased use of different technologies in creative production and ad targeting. In 2013 he moved to AOL as CEO of AOL's advertising solutions, "Platforms."
He thinks IT providers, like IBM, stand a stronger chance of moving into marketing than the opposite.
"Right now, marketing is still trying to catch up to technology," he said.

Colts Mailbag- March 19, 2014 (Part Two)
This week, mailbag readers ask or talk about the difference between power and zone blocking, if Reggie Wayne is threatened by some signings, the additions of Hakeem Nicks, D'Qwell Jackson and if there are plans at safety, if Alex Mack still is an option, Daniel Adongo's progress, the return of Ahmad Bradshaw, why so much money has been spent on the defensive line the last two seasons, how Griff Whalen fits and Trent Richardson. This is part two of three. Check Colts.com in 30 minutes for part three and visit the site for part one.
](http://careyindiana.com)
INDIANAPOLIS – Readers of Colts.com may submit questions during the week and have a chance to have them answered during the middle of each week. Submit you question here.
Here are responses to some of the questions received recently. We thank you for your interest in the Colts. Please make an effort to be concise when submitting a question.
CARL (from Phoenix, AZ) With the way the season ended, it seems near the end of the season teams running well against the Colts. Do you think Ryan Grigson would go for a big nose tackle? I remember when the Goose was playing for the Colts, (that guy was awesome, on and off the field).
A: There's no question we want to have a more consistent run defense, and settling the linebacking unit and adding Arthur Jones are two things we've accomplished to help get that done. Goose had some bursts at times for us. He certainly pointed them out when he did. Ellis Johnson was a formidable presence, but we historically haven't had the lasting stoutness that some other teams have had. We feel strongly we're on the right track, and the additions of Jones and D'Qwell Jackson will help our 3-4 as it enters year three. You are correct that the end of last season did not go well when opponents ran. It is an area that needs improvement.
DAVE H. (from Sebring, FL) I thought that Josh Chapman, Montori Hughes and Jeris Pendleton played a lot faster when their weight was around 325-330. Why have they all bulked up and has it affected their performance? Glad to see Ahmad Bradshaw and Vontae Davis back, plus the signings.
A: There have been no adverse weight concerns with the three guys you list, and all of them play at their prescribed weight ranges. We've addressed the listing of 316 pounds for Josh when we drafted him. I'm not sure that weight provided by the NFL ever was accurate. There should be no concerns with these three and if we do have some with any player, our coaching/conditioning staff will handle it. Thanks for your compliments on the signings. I know you take things seriously with us like a bunch of fans do. I hope you're excited.
JAMAL J. (from New Jersey) Why do the Colts continue to not make big moves in FA? I think this team is not getting the respect they deserve. People are always talking about the Broncos, Saints Seahawks, and Patriots. I'm tired of hearing about those teams and not hearing enough about my Colts Nation.
A: We've kept it lively enough this month to not only hold excitement for our fans but to improve our team as well. The free agency period and the draft created more than a cottage industry of chatter. You just need to limit how much it affects you. Teams like us try to negate as much as possible. Certain franchises draw attention, just because…… We've never really been on that sexy list (maybe we're in fly-over country), but that's not a real issue with us. Not always, but some of the time, teams that historically "win" the off-season don't fare so well in it. We'll take our attention level, communicate with fans and work hard so we can keep things going all fall. Our organizational formula has worked. Since 1999, only one team has won more than us in the regular season, and our playoff appearance total (13) leads the pack. We have the fifth-most wins in the last two seasons. We have made big moves. We've made smart ones. Hang in there.
A.J. L. (from Evansville, IN) How does the long-term salary cap look for Andrew Luck and T.Y. Hilton when they are done with their rookie contracts?**
A: Without getting too deeply into the matter, we have keen eyes set on where we are now and where we need to go with key players like Andrew, T.Y. and others. Suffice to say, you don't want to hit on special talents and lose them because your financial house is not in order. That would be a cardinal sin, one that Ryan and Chuck will not commit.
JOHN C. (from Bellerose, NY) Do you see a solid RB coming our way? With Ahmad Bradshaw and Vick Ballard coming off IR and a young Trent Richardson not proving he can play for us at a high level yet, are we in big trouble at RB? The best thing would be they come back and stay healthy, but is that asking too much?
A: I don't sense that we're in trouble. I think Trent will make big strides with us this year. I've talked with Vick a couple of times already this spring and you see a young guy ready to return. There is a history in this league of players coming off the type of neck procedure that Ahmad had and have no further problems. I think we're in a good place. We'll miss Donald Brown, but that is part of the game. Last year, I told you I thought Coby Fleener would emerge when you were a little concerned about him. I think you'll have concerns for the running backs subside as we get going, so stay patient. Thanks for being a true fan.
M. P. (from Charlotte, NC) I know it's early, very, but I have some concerns. I noticed the teams we will be facing next season made some impressive moves for free agency. Besides taking the Baltimore Ravens players, are we doing anything else to improve our defense to stop these high-powered offenses?
A: The additions of D'Qwell Jackson and Arthur Jones are two big ones, and don't discount what we've done in retaining our own players. That counts as free agency, too. We're doing what we need to do to be competitive and to prepare down the line. Just because we're taking a long-term view of things cap-wise doesn't mean we're skimping this year – far from it. We have the bar set high and so do others. What else we add in free agency, who knows, but we have made strides to build things through the true lifeline, the draft. We have some young talent that needs to develop, but we're in a good place. We're always concerned like you are and while we've lost a few veterans, we'll come through well and have a chance to compete strongly.
DACODA W. (from deployed location) Looking to the draft, I would really love to see us go after Nebraska's Stanley Jean-Baptiste then use our other picks on OG. I might be in a small group, but I believe Delano Howell can step it up at safety especially if we picked up Jean-Baptiste. I also feel with another year under his belt, LaRon Landry can step up his game with us. Thoughts?
A: I don't know where you're deployed and don't need to but thank you for your service, and I wish you and all your buddies a safe return. Jean-Baptiste is an intriguing prospect. You love his size and ability to play on the big stage. I think Delano can play a significant role for us as well, and LaRon will be one of our key players this year. We need for him to stay a bit healthier this year, but his impact was pretty dramatic last year. Sounds like you're defensive-oriented, and there's nothing wrong with that. I hope you can keep up with us regularly. Again, thank you so much for your dedication, safe maneuvers and come home well.
ISAK H. (from Mexico City, Mexico) Does the Phil Costa signing rule out drafting a C?
A: I wouldn't see that his addition would cause any change in draft plans. Phil is a talented veteran who will be given a chance to compete. We always look to make every unit sharp, and nothing does that better than competition. Like always, Ryan and Chuck explore all means possible. If there is something in May that we've scouted and like, I think we would pursue it if opportunity presents itself.
DENNIS P. (from undisclosed) I noticed all of the signings we have done, and I am still wondering how we are going to compete when everyone is getting considerably better on defense? We let a safety, several LBs and a center leave with no impact players to make up for them. I know we are trying to save money and keep ourselves in good position in the future also, but some of these guys could help us immediately. What are we doing? What is the plan?
A: It's true a number of former players have left, but the plan is rather obvious with those we have retained and added. I don't need to go through all those names, but I'm not sure how much more you should expect. We've bolstered both lines, retained help in the secondary, added a veteran receiver and kept two outstanding kickers. I'm sure you've noticed, and we'll keep working. We still have the draft and a number of solid players who have played before. We'll be fine. We've competed well and like I said earlier in the mailbag, don't focus so much on winning the off-season. It not always is a direct correlation to winning during the season.

I never really made the connection as a kid hearing my family joke about "Rose A'Sharon" and putting your grandmother in her rocking chair on top of the car when loading up to go on a camping trip. Okies from Muskogee, Hank Williams Sr, the Grapes of Wrath, biscuits and gravy, ham hocks and lima beans, and my favorite...pinto beans and corn bread.
Only until I grew up and moved away did it all fall into place. My maternal grandmother told me stories of picking cotton at age 5, being told there was no reason to go to high school as she was "just a migrant". These types of stories came from both sides of my family, some wanted to talk more than others. Watching Ken Burn's "The Dust Bowl" documentary a few years ago I found myself severely disappointed by most of it...I recognized the same photos of the migrant mother, the man and his child fleeing a storm toward their shack patched with tar paper, video clips from the Prelinger Archives. Same old stuff used and recycled. The only part that caught my attention was the interviews with the now elderly survivors of that time who had been young children, their manners and accents sounded like my family. I couldn't get enough, I wanted to hear more.
The photo is of my grandmother Mildred and her sister Polly in 1929. My father has the original photo, it scared me as a kid. I couldn't connect that photo with the sweet Grandma Garrison who cared for everyone and bought me my first cowboy boots when I was little. I asked her about those times a few years before she passed away and it was not something she wanted to talk about.
I was rewatching the the Grapes of Wrath when I was still in school, I noticed a shift in the scene where the Joad family rolls into the migrant camp a few miles outside the city limits. In a medium shot, you see them pull into the camp...car sputtering and clanking, it's a regular 40's movies. At 00:14 as they drive through the camp - it changes to their point of view, it looks like documentary shot by Dorothea Lange. I had never noticed it until then; it is startling and brief.


What are storage unit auctions?
In the US, most self storage companies will hold storage auctions to vacate non-paying tenants. The items inside the storage unit then go on auction. You bid on everything inside the unit & are responsible for removing it. Each site will have a different amount of units or lots to offer for auction. The auctions are open to the general public. Most bidders buy a unit with the purpose of reselling items for a profit.
Before the auction starts, the storage facility or auctioneer will have a sign in sheet and will explain the rules. Terms and conditions vary depending on the site. Usually you are bidding on the entire contents of a unit. Units are viewed from the doorway entrance of the unit. Some units are packed so tight you really can't see what is inside. The highest bidder must remove all contents of the unit within time frame given by storage company.
You never know. Most items are general household goods, furniture, clothing and personal records. Sometimes bidders find money, jewelry, antiques and collectibles. How can I find out where the auctions are taking place?
Usually there are notices in newspapers or websites. It's probably a good idea to call storage unit facilities in your area.
Besides storage unit auctions and antique stores other great places to find antiques.

Home PROFILE A Golden Voice Silenced
A Golden Voice Silenced
Nelson Bacchus
By Sam Sooppersaud
Sad news have been received from Guyana that Nelson Bacchus has passed away. He was two months short of his 79th birthday anniversary. He died on the morning of Wednesday, April 10th. May he rest in God's eternal peace!
Who was Nelson Bacchus? To the younger generation his name may be unknown. But, within the age group of 30 years and upwards, the name Nelson Bacchus was a household name in the field of Indian Hindi music and songs. He was a very versatile singer, adept in a variety of singing style and type of songs. From filmy songs, to Taan, to Chutney, to Bajans. Whatever style was asked of him by his audience he was able to deliver with ease and in his loud, baritone voice. He could sing songs sung by the great Indian singers, Mohammed Rafi, Mukesh, Manna Dey, Hari Om Sharan, Jagjit Singh, and whichever Indian artistes he could emulate. He was even know to sing a few Lata songs. He could even give you a Jim Reeves classic. Nelo was that versatile as a performer.
I first knew Nelo in the late fifties. Later on we became very good friends. He was originally from Cane Grove, on the East Coast of Demerara. He came to live in Canje, Berbice when still a young teenager. He and my brother, Kumkarran, worked in the Spray Gang at Rose Hall Sugar Estate. On weekends the boys would get together and hang out on at Ramnarace Square. They will have a couple of beverages. I, though much younger, would accompany my brother to their hangout. This is how I got to meet Nelo.
Apart from being a kind young gentleman, Nelo possessed to gift of singing. He loved to entertain his friends with songs. Music ans singing, I suppose, was in his genes. He was from a family lineage of musicians and singers. Two of his more contemporary relatives performers are Queen Yasmin and Prince Wazir.
Where descendants of indenture ship immersed themselves in medicine, and law and the trades, Nelo excelled equally in being a performer: in song and music. His name and or voice was familiar throughout British Guiana then Guyana. He was a frequent guest singing at Radio Demerara, on the Sunday Indian Hour program hosted by the then Radio Broadcaster, Ayube Mohammed. Nelo's golden voice was heard at Fairs, Melas, Fund Raisers, wakes. The Late Guyana President, L.F.S Burnham, even once requested and had Nelson Bacchus performed before him at a State formal function. A few years ago, shortly after President Granger was installed as president, Nelo performed for him, at the president's request, at a Fair the president attended at Rose Hall Welfare Center in Canje, Berbice. Nelo once served for a while as a teacher of Indian singing at the Guyana Cultural Center in Georgetown.
He sang alongside the very best in the field of Indian Hindi music, in Guyana, British Guiana: names such as Mohan Nandu, Gobin Ram, Devindra Pooran, Peter Das, Baal Nain, Wilfred, to name a few. The late, great Trinidadian Chutney singer, Sundar Popo, whenever he had a show in British Guiana, made sure that Nelson Bacchus was one of his main performers. Nelo's son, Rasheed Bacchus, is my son-in-law. At the end of one of my trips to Guyana, Nelo accompanied my party to Timehri Airport in Guyana. We reached very early at the airport so we decided to hang out in the car park. To kill some time I asked Nelo to sing a song. He readily accommodated my request. He sang the all time classic, SOHANI RAAT. Apart from his booming, but sonorous voice, you could hear a pin drop. It looked like the entire car park had crowded around us listening to Nelo. At the end of the song several people, total strangers, requested encores. Of course, Nelo was quick to oblige them. His words afterwards were, "Me glad you all enjoy the song".
Nelson Bacchus was a practicing Muslim. He attended his Mosque as often as there were services. However, he did not use his Islamic beliefs to make light of or condemn the teachings of other religions. As he used to say," all religion is good for our soul. None better than the other". He was a man who practiced what he preached. He attended all the religious functions to which he was invited, be it be Christianity, Islamic, Hindi, Aryan. He was part of a Kirtan group which sang at various functions; in Hindu temples, at wakes, and whatever appropriate functions required the group's participation. One striking thing about him is that he refused to accept any form payment for his participation. He would not accept a cent!
He was a man of unshakeable faith. He believed in destiny. He would say that " what is for a man will happen and he must take it all. The good and the bad". This faith was tested to exhaustion during his lifetime. A son, Zameer, was killed in a road accident, while still in his teens. Later, his wife passed away. Three years ago, his son, Jameer, his nick name was Jar, passed away. Six months later his son, Bashir, known as Cheese, died suddenly in New York. Of his once large family, only he, his son Rasheed, and his daughter Hassina were here. Four members of his family were gone. Imagine the grief of anyone having to endure these tragedies! This was enough to drive a normal human being insane. But, Nelo did not fall apart. He held on to this belief that all what had happened in his life so far was "in his destiny". He braced himself and accepted his fate. His saying was this: "wah me go do, it's God's work". He insisted that "life must go on". He did his best to cope with and live a relatively stress free life. A man of strong will and faith! He was an avid reader and read every piece of writing that he could get his hands on. He loved History.
Nelson Bacchus loved to say funny things: to give a laugh. He told this story. He and One Prem Persaud grew up in Cane Grove and were school friends. He moved to Canje and worked in the estate.. Prem Persaud became a lawyer then later a magistrate. He held court at the Reliance Court House. Nelo's house was within earshot of the courthouse. One Wednesday after court was adjourned Magistrate Prem Persaud paid Nelo a visit. This is the gist of their conversation. Prem told him: "man, you gonna get me in trouble". Nelo's answer: "how me go get you in trouble, you a de magistrate".
Prem's reply was that: "you gotta stop singing on court day, because when you are singing I listen to you, and I can give the wrong judgment". They had a big laugh! Nelo would tell so many stories when you visited him that you will laugh until tears come to your eyes.
As I have mentioned before, Nelo's youngest son, Rasheed is my son-in-law who now has also acquired some fame. He lives in New York with his family: son Amir, and wife Vani. He has done shows in New York, Minnesota, Florida and Toronto, Canada. Nelo visited the United States twice: in 2017 and 2018.
In his first visit Rasheed and family took him on a trip to North Carolina. He was astound with the "beauty of this great country" as he put it. He said he will have to tell people in Guyana how great this country is and how beautiful. There is so much to do and to eat.
At his wake and funeral in Reliance, Berbice, Guyana, hundreds of villagers came to pay their last respects to Nelo. What most of them remembered is that he "was a good man". They tell stories of passersby calling out to Nelo who would sit in his hammock. Nelo would invite them in for a chat and always shared with them whatever he had to eat or drink. Like one of the well wishers said: "he will be missed".
There are plans to petition the authorities to name that part of Reliance "The Nelson Bacchus Square" in his honor.
Nelo, rest in God's Holy Peace.
