The thing about a knowledge management solution is, it's tough to get hard data to demonstrate ROI. Even when you know it's working, how do you quantify the value of technology that allows you to make the most of the experience, skill and expertise your enterprise already has?
Anecdotes, however, abound. David Gilmour likes to tell the one about the energy company that spent a million dollars on a product designed to work on oil rigs to prevent sediment from falling into the wells.
Gilmour, who is president and CEO of Tacit Software, prefers not to think of his company as a KM vendor, (they even changed the name from Tacit Knowledge Systems). What Tacit provides is a unique approach to collaboration, one that is particularly suited to large, geographically distributed, and/or complex enterprises. Essentially, the company's products show companies who should be collaborating, when and why.
That's the problem Tacit's ActiveNet product line is designed to solve. ActiveNet continuously processes e-mail, documents and other business communications, and automatically "discovers" each employee's work focus, expertise and business relationships. "We mine the association of people to unstructured data to build a profile of the person," Gilmour explains. "Our goal is to make it impossible for two people who might benefit from making a connection in the workplace to miss out on that chance," Gilmour says.
For Scott Shaffar, director for knowledge management in global defense company Northrop Grumman Corporation's Integrated Systems group, facilitating that kind of intra-enterprise interaction isn't so much a goal as his raison d'etre. Integrated Systems is one of seven operating units within the company. As a premier aerospace and defense systems integration organization, it designs, develops, produces and supports network-enabled integrated systems and subsystems optimized for use on networks.
Shaffar liked ActiveNet's ability to produce useful profiles in a short period, and its ability to represent what people do and are interested in accurately. But he was worried about how the employees would react to the product's scanning of their e-mail and other documents.
Shaffar finds it hard to quantify the value of the kinds of connections facilitated by the ActiveNet product in his organization, but he believes they are invaluable. A recent example he points to involved an employee working on the company's proposal for NASA's Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV). Northrop Grumman and The Boeing Company are teaming to compete for a chance to design and build the CEV, which is the first crewed element in NASA's new Constellation Systems, a collection of human and robotic space systems for travel to the moon, Mars and beyond.
Shaffar says that Northrop Grumman's corporate-wide knowledge management counsel, which meets to share best practices, is currently considering implementing ActiveNet to connect the company's approximately 125,000 employees.

Portland mayor decries violence, hatred ahead of rally
By GILLIAN FLACCUSAugust 15, 2019 GMT
FILE - In this June 29, 2019, file photo, after a confrontation between authorities and protesters, police use pepper spray as multiple groups, including Rose City Antifa, the Proud Boys and others protest in downtown Portland, Ore. Portland police are mobilizing in hopes of avoiding clashes between out-of-state hate groups planning a rally Saturday, Aug. 17, 2019, and homegrown anti-fascists who say they'll come out to oppose them. (Dave Killen/The Oregonian via AP, File)
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The mayor of Portland, Oregon, said Wednesday that people planning violence or espousing hatred at a weekend protest by right-wing groups in the liberal city "are not welcome here."
Mayor Ted Wheeler spoke at a rally with other leaders ahead of the event Saturday, which is also expected to bring out anti-fascist protesters. Anticipating trouble, none of the city's nearly 1,000 police officers will have the day off.
The weekend event is being organized by a member of the Proud Boys, which has been designated as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
The rally Wednesday also featured representatives from religious, police and business groups.
Wheeler decried any groups "who plan on using Portland on August 17th as a platform to spread your hate." Other participants stood behind him holding letters on large posters that spelled out, "Our city, Our home."
Also expected at the Saturday event are members of the American Guard, Three Percenters, Oathkeepers and Daily Stormers.
American Guard is a white nationalist group, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, while Three Percenters and Oathkeepers are extremist, anti-government militias. The Daily Stormers are neo-Nazis, according to the center.
At a June rally in Portland, masked anti-fascists — known as antifa — beat up a conservative blogger named Andy Ngo. Video of the 30-second attack grabbed national attention.
Republican U.S. Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas and Bill Cassidy of Louisiana introduced a congressional resolution calling for anti-fascists to be declared domestic terrorists. President Donald Trump echoed that theme in a tweet last month.
Wheeler said Wednesday that Portland has a history of supporting free speech and the right to assemble.
"We've protested war, we've protested hate, we've protested racism, we've protested sexism," he said.
However, Wheeler said groups have recently used the "guise of free speech" to be violent.
"Violence is not a civil right," the mayor said.
The speakers were heckled by about a half-dozen protesters who shouted that anti-fascists were to blame for past violence, not right-wing visitors.
"I don't want to stop anyone's free speech. Everyone should always express their free speech, right or left," said Haley Adams, a member of a group Portland Liberation.
The group says it is aligned with the right-wing organization Patriot Prayer in Washington state and has camped out at Wheeler's house to protest his handling of past demonstrations and the attack on Ngo, the conservative blogger.
Some businesses are closing their doors Saturday and several weekend events have been canceled.
The Heaven to Earth Festival, a religious music event with a 10-year history in Portland, is in limbo after subcontractors said they would not set up tents in downtown due to potential unrest.
The Block, with a 21-year history in Portland, will close one of its food carts closest to the rally, owner Chris Schenk said.
"You know, I always fear the broken glass and looting and all the stuff that could go on," Schenk said as he busily filled sandwich orders.
"I would like to say it myself: Stay away, we don't want you here."
A 5K race was forced to move its course and an Irish bar that's a Portland institution canceled an annual amateur boxing match that draws 500 spectators.

The article discusses the question of mutual reltions of the Czech and Austrian nobility elite under the rule of Przemysl Ottokar II (1251/1253 - 1276/1278) from the perspective of the possibility of integrating both parts of the Przemyslid domain. Analyzing the mixed marriages (with its dominating tendency for marriages of Czech lords with Austrian ladies), the author stresses the point that they were usually arranged between families living in the borderland areas. There was hardly any intervention of the royal court. Austrian lords are seldom seen in the royal documents issued in Bohemia. The king did not have a systematic policy of land grants which could serve integration. In such situation it is hard to understand how the King of Bohemia imagined the continuation of the rule of his dynasty in the Danubian countries. It is especially clearly seen by contrast with the thoughtful policy of the next ruler of Austria, Rudolf Habsburg.

Q: Ansible and Fedora23 - "firewalld required for this module" I'm trying to set up my firewalld through Ansible on my Fedora 23 server from my Fedora client (Yes I like fedora :D ).
However, each time I try to execute a playbook with some commands including firewalld (Example - firewalld: service=https permanent=true state=enabled), the playbook execution fail with the following message :
failed: [w.x.y.z] => {"failed": true, "parsed": false}
failed=True msg='firewalld required for this module'

I have firewalld up and running on the remote server :
# firewall-cmd --version
0.3.14.2

On my computer :
$ ansible --version
ansible 1.9.4
configured module search path = None

Does anyone know where it could come from ?
Thank you !
--
EDIT: At this line in Ansible source code, firewall library seems not to be imported (and execute error which display that there is no firewall). However, this library exists in Python3 and not Python2 which is used by Ansible.
$ locate firewall
[...]
/usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages/firewall
[...]

I will continue to search, but if someone has an idea...

A: I found the explanation and solution :
Following my edit, I installed python-firewall which is python 2 bindings of firewalld. But, the execution was incorrect because of the absence of cockpit.
So I had to install cockpit too...
Long story, short story, this is what I've done on remote machine :
# dnf install python-firewall cockpit -y

Jim Irsay Has A Goal Of Winning Three Consecutive Super Bowls
Wednesday, April 3, 2019 3:40 pm EDT AFC, Latest News and Rumors
The Colts are one of the NFLs hottest up-and-coming teams. With a talented GM-HC tandem running the show and a roster stacked with young talent, owner Jim Irsay is thinking big.
Back in February, Irsay said in order to be the GOAT you need to win 3 consecutive championships.
Let me be clear- The Patriots ARE The Greatest Team in the Super Bowl Era- Hands Down!! It's just always been my opinion and goal; 3 Consecutive World Championships/in The Super Bowl era/is the G.O.A.T. Standard- that remains untouched and unachieved🏈!
— Jim Irsay (@JimIrsay) February 10, 2019
Irsay's goal with the Colts? Win 3 consecutive championships.
"I really feel like this is a young team that's ascending," Irsay said. "You guys know, I will unabashedly say, I'd like to win three in a row. How hard is it? I mean, it's hard as hell just to win one."
Seven teams have won back-to-back Super Bowls. No team has ever had three consecutive and it would be awfully difficult to do in today's NFL.
Thinking big is cool, but this might be too much.

July is the month of Omega's Speedmaster watches. Not only the Moonlanding will be celebrated (on the 21th of July 2:56 GMT), also the last Apollo mission which dates back to July 1975 is celebrated. The ASTP (Apollo-Soyuz Test Project) consisted out of a number of joint scientific experiments, but was – of course – mainly meant to see whether combined (manned) missions between two super powers would be possible in the future. Mission ASTP started on the 15th of July and returned on the 24th of July 1975.
Now, I think that my track record on blogging and writing about the Omega Speedmaster models is something I can be a bit proud of, but I never took the time to document the Apollo-Soyuz special editions. If you are looking for a story on the 'actual' moonwatches, please make sure to read my article on the Speedies that have been used during the moon landing on the 21st of July 1969 (you can find there articles here and here).
As you can see, nothing much different from the original Moonwatch, except for the logo and the case back. The bracelet looks a bit like an Oyster bracelet from Rolex, but it is in fact an original Omega bracelet by the reference of 1168.
This year, Omega commemorates the 35 anniversary of the combined space mission by another Speedmaster Professional Apollo Soyuz, ref. 311.30.42.30.99.001. An 'ordinary' stainless steel Moonwatch, but this time with an incredible looking dial made out of meteorite and a very impressive engraving in the case back of the watch. My friends over at Watch-Site (on-line dealer) lend me this amazing Speedmaster Pro Meteorite to play with and – of course – take some pictures of it.
The cool thing about a meteorite dial is that no dial has the same structure. Of course, we've seen dials made out of meteorite before (like the Rolex Daytona as you can see here at Hodinkee) but this time it makes a bit more sense. The case back of this Speedmaster Professional Apollo Soyuz, keeping the hand wound caliber 1861 safe and sound, has been engraved with the two space crafts from both the USA and the Sovjet Union and the names of the cosmonauts and astronauts involved (Alexey A. Leonov, Valery N. Kubasov, Thomas P. Stafford, Vance D. Brand and Donald K. Slayton).
The two Apollo astronauts and the Soyuz cosmonaut on the front row are clearly wearing Omega Speedmaster watches on the picture above. At least I could identify them on the full size version of this picture, without a doubt. Below you can see the case back bearing the engraving of the space crafts as pictured above as a 'model' in front of the flight crew.
Omega really makes this Apolly-Soyuz or 'Speedy Meteorite' stand out from the regular models, the box has this meteorite colour and has a nice leather interior. You need to push a button before the box will open, and then the watch is located on a leather pillow on the left and the Apollo-Soyuz emblem is located on the right part of the box.
I didn't photograph the white card board outer box, as you probably can imagine what it looks like. The booklet and papers of this watch are located in the card board box, as well as the certificate stating the unique number of the watch (of a total of 1975 pieces world wide).
The watch wears very comfortable, and I actually find it more comfortable than the original Moonwatch with Hesalite crystal. I own a 145.012ST (caliber 321) from 1967 which weighs significantly less than this sapphire crystal model (the bracelet of the modern versions are also heavier of course).
For the rest, the watch wears and behaves like any other similar Speedmaster model. The Lemania based movement is hand wound and based on the original 861 caliber (now 1861), which has proven itself over the years of its use (since 1968). The crown winds very easy and softly and the watch immediately starts to run. The chronograph uses this shuttle cam system (as opposed to a column wheel construction) and starts, stops and resets by pressing the buttons gently.
After studying the watch for a couple of hours, I realized that I actually like the red printing, as well as the applied logo (old school style!). This watch could easily be mine, without a doubt. And its price? It lists for 6150 Euro here in The Netherlands (check your own local dealer for a price, although it probably does not differ much) which I think is quite steep for a Moonwatch with a meteorite dial. Does the 3000 Euro extra is justified for a special dial and engraving, limited to 1975 pieces?
If you are a collector of Speedmasters, it probably is. Watch-Site offers this BNIB model for 5250 Euro which is already making it a bit easier to decide. One could say the regular 'Moonwatch' is priced below its real value, which I tend to under write. The regular ref. 3570.50.00 retails for just over 2700 Euro, with a Hesalite crystal that is. The Speedmaster is one of the most (or is it just the) iconic chronograph watches there is. In my opinion, it is even a more 'clean' and interesting chronograph than the famous Rolex Daytona. The classic design of the Speedmaster is impeccable and has proven itself for over 50 years now.
As I am writing this, I realize that I am trying to find enough arguments to justify the approximately 5K for this superb Speedmaster Pro 'Meteorite', but you know what? I don't have to. It simply rocks.
If you already have an Omega Speedmaster (pre-Professional) in your collection, make sure to wear it the next coming days.

Rathcon farm provides an ideal location for companies or groups to enjoy an action packed day out, all within easy reach of Dublin. The day's layout can be tailor made to suit requirements and the farm will be exclusively booked for the day. In addition to fishing, clay pigeon shooting and laser skirmishing, we can offer archery, air rifle shooting, a challenging treasure hunt and various adventure courses, all great fun and good team building exercises. The day is then normally concluded with a delicious BBQ at the lakeside. If accommodation and meeting rooms are required, we recommend Rathsallagh hotel which borders the farm.
Rathcon farm has introduced two very different, challenging, yet fun adventure courses which are set up around the lake. These obstacle courses are team based and include tasks such as canoeing, fence building, chicken herding, egg launching and much much more!
The Farm Experience is inspired from the challenges we find on a day to day basis while running Rathcon farm. Two teams are put against each other to complete a diverse and humorous adventure course whilst up against the clock.
The Splash Experience is located on the lake and involves guiding your water craft through a series of problem solving tasks. Advised to bring a spare change of clothes for this one!
The Rathcon treasure hunt is set out across the whole farm. Teams must compete to find the hidden treasure by solving clues and riddles, and putting their map-reading skills to the test.
Various physical and mental tasks are incorporated throughout the hunt, each of which must be completed before clues can be collected!
Paddle against your rivals afloat a raft created by your team from barrels, pallets and rope!
Experience one of the oldest hunting techniques by using long bow and arrows. We provide top of the range bows which will surprise you as to just how much power they have. Your bow can be a lethal weapon, but under our experienced instructors it becomes highly satisfying and a fun activity.
The Rathcon air rifle shooting range has a variety of testing targets at different distances suitable for both experienced and beginner rifle shots.

In 2011, I took a series of Animal Thanet images entitled Pegwell Safari – down on the abandoned concrete apron of the former Pegwell Bay Hoverport at Pegwell Bay, Thanet. These images formed part of a postal art project.
Some of the images show the cooling towers & chimney of the former Richborough Power Station, which were demolished by explosives at 09.07am on 11th March 2012.
These images consider & reflect wider concerns for the natural world, particularly focussed on the lives of its wild animals, conservation, loss of habitat, diminishing numbers, poaching, extinction and callous exploitation, which holds a mirror to our humanity. We may soon only have plastic versions of our wild neighbours to play with. The last decade has witnessed the slow & horrible realisation that our negative impact on the planet and particularly our plastic pollution of almost every environment, is a catastrophe for the world around us.
In March 2011 a Sperm Whale beached and died at Pegwell Bay. I remember running along the beach at low tide all the way from Ramsgate to see it. A whale necropsy was carried out the following day, which was astonishing to see.


All eyes are on the Loughlin-Giannulli family following Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli's not guilty plea in court earlier this week.
After reportedly denying their first offer, the couple, who was indicted with 50 other parents, coaches, and administrators for allegedly bribing their children's way into college, is still in negotiations. And while the couple's lawyers presumably draft out the best deal that they can for their clients, their daughters are finding their own ways of protecting themselves. Specifically, the youngest of the two Giannulli girls has deleted her social media.
Isabella Rose, who goes by Bella socially, deleted her account under the username @bella, as Elle.com points out. Previously, the account was private, but Refinery29 can confirm that the page is completely gone now. Whether or not she has another account, like a Finstagram as many people often do, is unclear. At this time, Olivia Jade's account is still live, but she has not posted anything since news broke in early March. (Even though some sources say she is using the "Close Friends" feature on Instagram Stories to remain in contact with her friends.) In addition to changing up their social media strategy, the sisters have left University of Southern California, the school they got into with the alleged assistance of William Singer, and may even be called in by the prosecution for interviews.
Immediately following the release of Operation Varsity Blues, Loughlin and fellow actress and parent Felicity Huffman, deleted their own social media accounts. In the time since, Loughlin has been removed from her projects at Hallmark, and her daughters have been stripped of many of their beauty collaborations and endorsements. But, despite all the headlines about their family, no one in the Loughlin-Giannulli family has publicly spoken about, or apologized for, the alleged incidents in the scandal. Conversely, Huffman (her husband, William H. Macy was not indicted in the scandal, nor were any of the children involved) released a public apology after pleading guilty on April 9. As of writing this, prosecutors reportedly seek to give the actress 10 months in prison.


Ethan is a top student at Cayman Prep and High School and excels in STEM subjects, particularly in mathematics and computer science. Ethan represented his school in the Minds Inspired Mathematics Challenge and was a participant in the UK Intermediate Maths Challenge in 2015 and 2016, receiving Silver and Gold medals respectively. When Ethan isn't showcasing his mathematics skills, he enjoys sailing and roller hockey, represents his school at the Model United Nations and is a member of Key Club.
Cristin's dedication to her academics has earned her many top honours at Grace Christian Academy as well as an A/A+ average for the last three years in core subject areas. Cristin has been on the Principal's Honour Roll every year since Grade 1 and received the 2016 Citizenship Award at Grace Christian Academy. She represented her school at the Minds Inspired Mathematics Challenge, participated in the Rotary Science Fair and the NCFA and volunteers as an art assistant with the NCFA. When not involved in her academic pursuits, Cristin plays soccer and tennis.
When asked what future profession they aspire to, Ethan, with his strong interest in computer science, hopes to pursue a career that combines computer science and mathematics, while Cristin would like to study medicine, with the goal of becoming a paediatrician or a cardiologist.
The Minds Inspired High School Scholarship Programme consists of three main elements – a four-year high school scholarship based on academic excellence with a focus in the areas of mathematics and science, participation in a multi-year mentoring programme with Dart employees and special enrichment experiences designed to introduce new horizons and expand recipients' worldview outside of the classroom. In past years, Minds Inspired high school scholars have attended SuperCamp at Brown University and Stanford University, spent time at the Dart NeuroScience research facility in San Diego, CA and visited the European Organization for Nuclear Research, known as CERN, in Switzerland.
"Each year, we are inspired by the growing pool of diverse student applicants all of whom are simply outstanding - intelligent, curious and dedicated to a well-rounded school career," said Mark VanDevelde, Chief Executive Officer of Dart Enterprises. "I am proud to welcome this year's winners, Ethan and Cristin, to the Minds Inspired family; they both embody the Dart philosophy and exemplify Dart's commitment to education and in particular to STEM subjects" he added.
The Minds Inspired High School Scholarship Programme involves a multi-step, blind-selection process designed to remove distinguishing details such as school, age, gender etc. and keep the identity of the applicants confidential from the judging panel. Each year, a group of candidates are short listed from the total applications submitted. This year, 14 students were short-listed based on their applications and successfully advanced onto a second round: a mathematics and science test and a timed essay. Nine students progressed to the third round, which is an in-person interview with a Dart Executive. During the fourth and final round, a selection committee reviewed the total information on each of the five selected finalists (reviewing each application with no distinguishing details, only an application number) and selected the two scholarship recipients. The selection committee is made up eight professionals, five leaders in the local industry and community plus three Dart senior executives.
This year, the other three exceptional students and finalists in the Minds Inspired High School Scholarship Programme were Johnathon Bedasse from Cayman Prep and High School, Ethan Cronier from St. Ignatius Catholic School and Elana Sinclair from Cayman Prep and High School. These three students were recognised and applauded on their achievements; they will each receive a CI$500 Camana Bay gift card and have an opportunity to meet with members of the selection committee.


Zoology Scholarships provide wide scope to students for their career in industry, private business, Medical Laboratories and Wildlife Rehabilitation Centers etc. Zoology is a branch of science about the structure, development and classification of animals.

If you know me personally, you know I'm a big buff of Black history and knowing the contributions that people of African descent made to the entire world. Each day this month, I'll highlight a little known (or maybe a well-known) Black history fact.
This month, I've decided to do a series highlighting young African-American business owners and rising starts. Some include a baker, a rising music mogul, a photographer, and a few magazine founders.
Until next time, I'm just a Southern girl…in the city! Oh, and feel free to share your own Black history facts throughout the month as well!
The downtown section of Allensworth has been persevered as a Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park. The Friends of Allensworth and the California Department of Parks are hosting a Black Historic Month program at the park on Saturday, February 12, 2011.
There is currently an exhibit at the California African American Museum in Los Angeles titled "Allensworth A Place, A People, A Story". The exhibit will be there until February 27th.
Thanks, Stephen, for visiting the blog and sharing that information. I'm not in CA, but I hope that those readers who are will visit!

Muscatine's Wieskamp commits to play basketball at Iowa

Muscatine High School basketball player Joe Wieskamp committed to play basketball at the University of Iowa on Tuesday.
MUSCATINE JOURNAL FILE PHOTO
MUSCATINE, Iowa — The fit was undeniable.
And Joe Wieskamp, a Muscatine High School sophomore-to-be, didn't feel the need to let the recruiting process linger on, committing to play basketball at the University of Iowa during a visit to the Iowa City campus on Tuesday.
"If I knew I wanted to be there, why wait? Excited to be a Hawk," said Wieskamp, a life-long Iowa fan.
He added, "It feels great. It's a great school. It's in the Big Ten. All their games are on national TV. Having grown up watching [the Hawkeyes], it feels great knowing I'll be in the same spot as those guys."
A third-team Iowa Newspaper Association All-State player last season, Wieskamp, who also had offers from Iowa State and Northern Iowa, is the first recruit of the 2018 class for the Hawkeyes.
MatchUp: NBA wide
"Felt very comfortable there. The whole coaching staff is great guys," said Wieskamp, who added it was important that the Iowa City campus was just over 35 miles away to allow his family to watch him play. "I like all the guys that committed there. Their style fits into how I play."
The 6-foot-4 guard/forward averaged 18.6 points while shooting 47.1 percent and grabbed 6.1 rebounds per game as a freshman for the Muskies, both of which were team bests.
Wieskamp said that Iowa coaches can envision him playing at either guard position or even as a small forward, depending how he grows. His abilities give him the versatility of playing multiple positions.
"I think he's got a wide base of a skill set and he's able to do a lot of things well. He's got a lot of ways to score the basketball, he's got good length," said Muscatine boys basketball coach Brandon Welsch, the last Muskie basketball player to play on the Division I level when he finished his career at Robert Morris in 2000. "… Even though he's had some offers, his work ethic hasn't wavered. I think college coaches see that as well as his potential as player."
That will allow him to play the style of basketball the Hawkeyes have utilized under head coach Fran McCaffery.
"I like the way they run and gun, spotting up and shooting and getting to the rack," Wieskamp said. "I just felt like a lot of guys that are similar [to me] play there."
He joins fellow Hawkeye commits Cordell Pemsl, of Dubuque Wahlert Catholic, in the 2016 class and Iowa City West's Connor McCaffery in 2017.
Wieskamp has played travel basketball with Connor and Patrick McCaffery for the Iowa Barnstormers, and that has given him a chance to find a level of comfort with the entire family.
"I've grown up knowing the McCafferys and been around them a lot," Wieskamp said. "… I definitely feel comfortable around them and know they're great guys and want to be around them."
With his college decision made, Wieskamp can now focus on getting back to work on improving upon parts of his game he looks at as weaknesses — which he previously pointed to as becoming better with the ball and working on his quickness and strength — and not resting on his laurels.
"We've seen some good progress since last [season]. He's made some different strides," Welsch said. "… He knows and we know he's going to be a focal point for every team we play."
Wieskamp added, "I've been lifting a lot and working on my ball handling a lot, just preparing for the upcoming AAU season and high school season."

Title IX protects athletic program administrators who complain about inequities.
Photo of Roderick JacksonWhile it is the job of the courts to determine the meaning of Congress when it passes a law, until the issue reaches the U.S. Supreme Court, it is not uncommon for there to be differing legal interpretations. Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is no exception.
It was not until the Supreme Court's decision in Cannon v. University of Chicago [441 U.S. 677 (1979)] that the court found a private right of action to enforce its prohibition on intentional sex discrimination under Title IX. In addition, it was not until the Supreme Court decision in Franklin v. Gwinnett County Public Schools [503 U.S. 60 (1992)] that the courts found that Title IX authorizes private parties to seek monetary damages for intentional violations of the law. Finally, it was not until the Supreme Court decisions in Gebser v. Lago Vista Independent School Dist. [524 U.S. 274 (1998)] and Davis v. Monroe County Bd. of Ed. [526 U.S. 629 (1999)] that the courts interpreted Title IX to include intentional sex discrimination in the form of a federal funding recipient's deliberate indifference to a teacher's sexual harassment of a student, as well as to sexual harassment of a student by another student.
In the most recent Title IX case to reach the Supreme Court, Jackson v. Birmingham Board of Education [2005 U.S. LEXIS 2928], the court was asked to determine whether Title IX prohibited employers from retaliating against employees who complain about unequal funding and unequal access to athletic equipment and facilities.
In 1993, Roderick Jackson was hired by the Birmingham school district to serve as a physical education teacher and girls' basketball coach. In 1999, Jackson was transferred to Ensley High School, where he discovered that the girls' team was not receiving equal funding or equal access to athletic equipment and facilities. As a result, Jackson found it difficult to do his job as the team's coach and began complaining to his supervisors. Jackson's complaints to school officials, however, went unanswered and district administrators failed to remedy the situation. Instead, Jackson began to receive negative work evaluations and ultimately was removed as the girls' coach in May 2001.
After the board of education terminated Jackson's coaching duties, he filed suit in Federal District Court. In his lawsuit, Jackson alleged that the board violated Title IX by retaliating against him for protesting discrimination against the girls' basketball team. In its defense, the board moved to dismiss the lawsuit on the grounds that Title IX does not specify claims of retaliation. The District Court granted the board's motion to dismiss, and Jackson appealed.
In upholding the decision of the District Court, the Eleventh Circuit Court also found that Title IX did not provide a private right of action for retaliation. The Eleventh Circuit based its ruling on the fact that nothing in the language of Title IX indicates any congressional concern with retaliation that might be visited on those who complain of Title IX violations. In addition, the court held that Jackson could not recover damages under Title IX, because he was not within the class of persons protected by the statute.
Having lost at both the district and appellate court levels, Jackson appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. In examining the text of Title IX, the court found that the language broadly prohibits a funding recipient from subjecting any person to discrimination on the basis of sex. Retaliation against a person because that person has complained of sex discrimination, the court ruled, is another form of intentional sex discrimination encompassed by Title IX's private cause of action because the complainant is being subjected to differential treatment. In addition, retaliation is an intentional response to the nature of the complaint: an allegation of sex discrimination.
In rejecting the findings of the Eleventh Circuit Court, the Supreme Court held that its ruling ignored the court's repeated holdings construing discrimination under Title IX broadly. For example, the court noted that even though the statute does not mention sexual harassment, the court held in Franklin that sexual harassment is intentional discrimination encompassed by Title IX's private right of action. Discrimination, the court ruled, is a term that covers a wide range of intentional unequal treatment; by using such a broad term, Congress gave the statute a broad reach and the courts must accord Title IX a sweep as broad as its language.
Similarly, the court swept aside the school board's argument that, even if Title IX's private right of action encompasses discrimination, Jackson is not entitled to invoke it because he is an indirect victim of sex discrimination. Relying on the broad sweep accorded Title IX, the Supreme Court once again ruled that because the statute is broadly worded, it does not require that the victim of the retaliation must also be the victim of the discrimination that is the subject of the original complaint. When the retaliation occurs because the complainant speaks out about sex discrimination, the "on the basis of sex" requirement in Title IX is satisfied.
In support of this finding, the court noted that Congress enacted Title IX not only to prevent the use of federal dollars to support discriminatory practices, but also to provide individual citizens effective protection against those practices. This objective, the court held, would be difficult if not impossible to achieve if persons who complain about sex discrimination did not have effective protection against retaliation. If recipients of federal funding were permitted to retaliate freely, individuals who witnessed discrimination would be hesitant to report it, and all manner of Title IX violations might go unremedied as a result.
Indeed, the court noted, if retaliation were not prohibited, Title IX's enforcement scheme would unravel. Enforcement of Title IX depends on individual reporting, since individuals and agencies may not bring suit under the statute unless the federal funding recipient has received actual notice of the discrimination. Without protection under the law, recipients of federal funding would be able to avoid such notice by retaliating against all those who dared complain. We should not assume that Congress left such a gap in its scheme.
The school board's final argument was that the Supreme Court should not interpret Title IX to prohibit retaliation because the board was not on notice that it could be held liable for retaliating against those who complain of Title IX violations. The court stated that the board was correct in pointing out that because Title IX was enacted as an exercise of Congress' powers under the spending clause, private-damages actions are available only where recipients of federal funding have adequate notice that they could be liable for the conduct at issue. However, the court ruled that recipients of federal funds should have been put on notice by the fact that cases since Cannon have consistently interpreted Title IX's private cause of action broadly to encompass diverse forms of intentional sex discrimination. Indeed, the court held, retaliation cases present an even easier case than deliberate indifference. Retaliation cases are easily attributable to the funding recipient and are always, by definition, intentional.
Although the Supreme Court decision was a closely divided, 5-4 victory for Jackson, the decision should still have a tremendous impact on how schools run their athletic programs. Whistleblowers can now come forward and complain about inequality in facilities or treatment without fear of retaliation. This is important, since teachers and coaches are often in the best position to champion the rights of their students, because they are better able to identify discrimination and bring it to the attention of administrators.
It should be noted that the Supreme Court's decision in Jackson only overturns the ruling of the Eleventh Circuit. The case will now head back to the District Court where, in order for Jackson to prevail, he will have to prove that the board retaliated against him because he complained of sex discrimination.

The Chapleau Economic Development Corporation (CEDC) and the Township of Chapleau commissioned a Mining Readiness and Growth Strategy to help the community identify opportunities associated with mining development. CEDC and Township staff worked with KPMG to develop the report, and the draft was presented to the Council and the CEDC Board of Directors on July 11th by Mr. Oscar Poloni of KPMG.
Funded by the CEDC and the Township of Chapleau with support from the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corporation and FedNor Industry Canada, this study is based on case studies from communities across the Province. This will allow Township departments and Economic Development to staff make informed decisions based on best practices and lessons learned from the experiences of these communities.
An initial public information session was held in January, and a follow-up took place August 17th to present the results of this Strategy to the community. The event was attended by more than 45 individuals representing business and community interests. Subsequent events in September, October, and November 2016 were also well attended and gave business owners and entrepreneurs additional information on how best to capitalize on increased mining activity.
On February 27th, 2017 Council approved Addendum No. 1 to the Mining Readiness and Growith Strategy in order to update the document with information made available subsequent to the release of the original Strategy.
Since the relese of the Strategy, the Township has hosted a series of Workshops to hep local businesses gain a better understanding of the opportunities identified in the Mining Readiness and Growth Strategy, and of Goldcorp's procurement practices. Below you will find information on past workshops and futures events.

Passengers have been advised by the airline to check available flights with other airlines.
Stranded passengers who had been set to travel with Iceland's Wow Air are being forced to book new tickets and absorb unexpected costs, after the airline shut down.
Numerous planes traveling to Reykjavik, Iceland, also did not take off Thursday morning after the airline closed its doors.
Now, passengers in both North American and European cities have found themselves stranded with little guidance from WOW Air on how to move forward. If the airline declares bankruptcy, passengers can make a claim with the administrator or liquidator. Belgium's VLM announced its liquidation in August, when Switzerland's Skywork Airlines AG also ceased flights.
The airline began operating in 2012 and provided cheap flights between Europe and North America. Previous year it operated 20 aircraft.
But this was soon replaced with a statement reading: "WOW Air has ceased operation".
Wow Air, founded by Icelandic businessman Skuli Mogensen, reportedly owe around £150. There's a lot of people here, lot of people are depending on you and we're paying money for it and we're not getting our money's worth.
Passengers were already boarding her 7:05 p.m. flight to Dublin, Riordan tells Ireland's Independent newspaper, when airline staff announced that there was a problem. The couple received an email from the carrier saying their flight had been cancelled, but they could opt to be rebooked on a later departure or apply for a refund.
The heavily indebted airline had been seeking a backer, but talks with potential investors including IcelandAir were ultimately unsuccessful.
And with the heavy stopover promotions by Iceland's tourism industry as travelers shuttle between the US and Europe, another transatlantic low-priced option vaporizes.
Wow carried 3.5 million passengers previous year.
Justice Department spokeswoman Kerri Kupec and Federal Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Carol Cratty each declined to comment. But make no mistakes, I will always continue to fight for the justice, equality and betterment of marginalized people everywhere.

What Can We Learn from Plants?
By C. Frazier Spencer
" "For I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Marvelous are Thy works" (Psalm 139:14). Some general information about plant complexity may be of interest before we get into specifics.
A book titled, The Secret Life of Plants (1) has some remarkable information. "Worm like rootlets, which Darwin likened to a brain, burrow constantly downward with thin white threads, crowding themselves firmly into the soil, tasting it as they go. Small hollow chambers in which a ball of starch can rattle indicate to the roots the direction of the pull of gravity."
"When the earth is dry, the roots turn toward moister ground, stretching, as in the case of the lowly alfalfa plant, as far as 40 feet, developing an energy that can bore through concrete. A study of a single rye plant indicates a total of over 13 million rootlets with a combined length of 380 miles. On these rootlets of a rye plant are fine root hairs estimated to number some 14 billion with a total length of 6,600 miles."
Can plants see? The author informs us, "A climbing plant which needs a prop will creep toward the nearest support. Should this be shifted, the vine, within a few hours, will change its course into the new direction. Can the plant see the pole? Does it sense it in some unfathomed way? If a plant is growing between obstructions and cannot see a potential support it will unerringly grow toward a hidden support, avoiding the area where none exists…"

More or less, we all know about the harmful effects of cigarettes, but not everyone knows how dangerous it is to our livers in specific.
Cigarette smoke is considered a source of a lot of extremely toxic substances to the body, especially the liver. For a healthy liver , you need to give up smoking. Here are the reasons for you to change this harmful habit.
What is the relationship between smoking and liver disease?
There are many studies that show a close relationship between liver disease and smoking.
Scientists found that nearly half of all cases of liver cancer are related to smoking habits.
How does smoking affect liver function?
liver is. If the liver must metabolize toxins in cigarettes while liver function decreases, the risk of liver disease will increase.
When the liver has diseases such as cirrhosis or hepatitis, the number of liver cells to filter the toxins is very small. Cirrhosis not only prevents the ability of the liver to regenerate, but also reduces the ability to remove toxins.
The liver also plays a role in balancing blood fat through cholesterol production, both good (HDL) and bad (LDL). The optimal ratio of good and bad cholesterol decreases when you have liver disease. At the same time, when the amount of nicotine in cigarettes adds to the amount of fat in the blood, the accumulation of blood fat will increase to a dangerous level.
Smoking can alter the function of damaged liver cells, reduce normal cell regeneration and promote the development of cancer. Cigarette smoke contains many known carcinogens. Substances in smoke include Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH), materials that bind to DNA causing damage and abnormalities in the cell, also known as cancer.
Even if you don't have liver disease, you should avoid and quit smoking. It is the most effective way to prevent many diseases and protect the health of other members of your family.

Better Connected, But More Afraid: Media In The Middle East
August 24, 2015 • Media and Politics, Recent • by Stephan Russ-Mohl
Buffer4
The role played by social media in the 2011 Arab Spring may have been overestimated by Western observers, but a new report, Media Use in the Middle East, 2015, reveals that platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are changing the region's media landscape.
The study, analysing media use, press freedom and media credibility in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Tunisia and Lebanon, found that "social media have become almost synonymous with the internet," and staying connected "pervades Arab culture".
Most (79 per cent) of those surveyed use social media or direct messaging, "at least once a day" with little variation across gender or age.
However, the study shows there are still huge differences in the use of the internet and social media within the Middle East.
New media are most widely used in the UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, while Egypt, Tunisia and Lebanon, are still lagging behind. But they are rapidly catching up, researchers found. In Egypt, internet use has doubled from 22 to 45 percent of the population during the last two years; in Lebanon, internet penetration grew from 58 to 79 percent in the same period.
Most people in the analysed countries access the web by their mobile phones rather than by laptop or desktop.
The report, by Everette Dennis, Justin D. Martin and Robb Wood, of the Northwestern University in Qatar, was recently presented at the American Journalism Educators' conference in San Francisco. It is the third consecutive year that such a systematic and comparative analysis has been provided. This means comparative data for this region are now available for the first time.
For example, researchers found that support for free speech ("it is okay for people to express their ideas on the internet, even if they are unpopular") has remained stable in four of the six surveyed countries since 2013, but has dropped significantly in Saudi Arabia (by 10 per cent) and Tunisia (by 20 per cent). The number of people who supported free speech was highest among those who had attended university.
The survey also found that nearly half (48 per cent) of nationals feel the internet in their country should be more regulated although desire for more regulation varies from 67% in Qatar to 35% in the UAE."
Only about two in five Arab nationals (39 per cent) surveyed said they feel "comfortable voicing political opinions online", down from 44 per cent in 2013. Fewer than half (45 per cent) of all respondents said it was safe to say what they think about politics online, again this is down from 48 per cent in 2013. These figures vary from nation to nation.
"The two countries most affected by the Arab uprisings, Egypt and Tunisia, saw the biggest drops in individuals who said they felt comfortable expressing their political opinions. Tunisia had the biggest drop in respondents who said it is safe to say whatever one thinks about politics; in Egypt, authorities did not allow the question to be asked at all," according to the report.
Slightly more than one third (35 per cent) worry about governments checking their online activities.
Yet, citizens in Arab countries "are generally trusting of news media" the study finds. Seven in ten (69 per cent) say "they have trust and confidence in mass media to report the news fully, accurately, and fairly" – there is little variation concerning the education level of respondents.
These are the sort of figures that European or American media with a free, and frequently critical press, (but also a press driven by click maximization and by the desire to increase income from advertising), can only dream of.
Countries with stable and prospering economies were generally considered to have higher quality and more credible national news media than in those characterized by turmoil, such as Egypt, Lebanon, and Tunisia.
Nationals from the Gulf states (UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar) tend to have a more positive opinion of their media; the majority say the news media in their country are credible. However, those in Egypt, Lebanon, and Tunisia express less confidence in their national media, with fewer than half agreeing that news media in their country are credible.
The degree of press freedom in an individual country does not appear to be linked to how much its citizens believe in their media.
According to the annual press freedom ranking provided by Reporters without Borders, Lebanon (ranked 98th) has "noticeable problems" with press freedom. Qatar (115th), the United Arab Emirates (120th) and Tunisia (126th) have a "difficult situation", while problems in Egypt (158th) and Saudi Arabia (164th) are considered "very serious".
The researchers also reported government restrictions they had to face in some countries. No surveys could be conducted in Iran, Iraq and Yemen. In Egypt, some of the questions were censored by the government, however in Saudi Arabia working conditions for the researchers were surprisingly "open".
The survey, which was funded by the Qatar National Research Fund, also found that younger users in the region are generally more willing to pay for online news than older age groups. And comedy is, as in Western societies, also on the rise in the Arabic countries. Younger internet users (aged 18-24) use the internet to watch comedy more frequently than those aged 45 and older, it is also found that women (79 %) are more likely than men (72 %) to watch comedy on TV.
Besides the data which provide a unique picture of how media use is changing in the Arabic world, the interactive presentation of the research report is also innovative. Users are able to "play" with the survey, by combining different data sets, allowing them to follow specific paths of investigation and to draw their own conclusions.

Realtors Taking "GREEN" Classes Help Buyers And Planet Too!

Realtors take ''green'' classes to help buyers save cash and planet too!
By Tom Bailey Jr. (Contact), Memphis Commercial Appeal
Memphis' first class of "green" real estate agents has hit the streets.
The 32 agents are talking with confidence to buyers and sellers about the direction houses face, insulation ratings, energy tax credits and other issues that may save both the pocketbook and planet.
Early in the summer, they took two days of core classes and a six-hour elective to receive the "Green Designation" from the National Association of Realtors.
Realtor Molly Phillips is one of 32 local agents who took classes this year to earn a ''Green Designation.'' This residence for the Vesta Home Show at the Villages of White Oak subdivision in Arlington is filled with energy-efficient features.
"It's just something I foresee coming," agent Molly Phillips said of the interest in reducing energy demand and costs.
The Re/Max On Track agent and her classmates took the courses at Memphis Area Association of Realtors.
"I think the younger generation will be more into these green features," Phillips said. "When it catches on, everyone will be focused on trying to save more money, have more energy-efficient features, things that make houses look better without a whole lot of maintenance."
She will use what she's learned next week at the VESTA Home Show at the Villages of White Oak in Arlington.
Showing an energy- efficient home built by Jon Ruch, Phillips will expound on "green" features like the tankless water heater, the radiant roof barrier, the natural wood cabinets and paint that has low or no levels of volatile organic compounds.
The National Association of Realtors created the Green Designation last year.
The course includes two days of core classes and electives in either residential, commercial or property management. The only elective offered in Memphis this summer was the residential.
"The plan is to offer these classes again next spring," said Scott Sherrin, spokesman for the Memphis Area Association of Realtors.
Retired carpenter Delbert Metcalf and his wife, Peggy, have benefited from their "green" agent's expertise.
They recently bought a house in rural Alcorn County in Mississippi.
"It needs some updating," Metcalf said.
He credited "green" agent Ron Burger for helping him make the 41-year-old house more energy efficient. For example, Burger suggested that when Metcalf drills holes to run wire up to the attic, he seal them.
"I kind of lucked out when we hooked up with Ron," Metcalf said.
Burger is with ERA Crunk in Savannah, Tenn., but works out of his house in Michie.
He made the 90-minute trip (one way) each day for three days to get his certification.
"I didn't know what all was going on until I got that education," Burger said. "And that's the tip of the iceberg, the starting point."
Burger always had an interest in well-built houses and hated high utility bills, but still had to warm up to the "green thing."
"Part of it was ignorance. When you hear 'green,' you think about (actor) Ed Begley and the people in California, you think of environmental concerns.
"One thing I'm trying to tell people is that green is also green as in the money you save."
Burger doesn't see any one energy-saving "home run," but all the little things add up.
Like helping Metcalf get the paperwork in order to claim tax credits on energy saving products he's buying.
"You can have an existing home and turn it into a house that's got a lot of green features," Burger said.
When the old furnace breaks, replace it with an energy efficient one, he said. Replace the light bulbs with energy-saving bulbs. And when the opportunity arises, install energy efficient insulation, he said.
"You may not want to be one of these California tree huggers, but I don't know anybody who's not interested in saving money," Burger said.
Another "green" agent is Steve Heathman of Hometown Realty in Atoka.
He's been helping a client build a new, 2,400-square-foot house that has many of the green upgrades.
The energy-efficient features add about $12,000 to a new home's costs "to do it right," Heathman said.
But he expects the client's energy bills will be 33 to 40 percent lower than most in the area.
"Also, they were looking for resale value in the future," he said. "As people become smarter with the way all this works, I think there will be a lot more people looking for this when they purchase a house."
