Q: binding ListBox to ObservableCollection in WPF I have a Class named Layer2Info
    public class Layer2Info
{
    public ObservableCollection<totalAvailablePorts> availableClientPorts = new ObservableCollection<totalAvailablePorts>();
}

The totalAvailablePorts Class is
    public class totalAvailablePorts : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
    public int _portID;
    public Boolean _isSelected;

    public int portID
    {
        get { return _portID; }
        set { _portID = value; NotifyPropertyChanged("portID"); }
    }
    public Boolean isSelected
    {
        get { return _isSelected; }
        set { _isSelected = value; NotifyPropertyChanged("isSelected"); }
    }

    public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
    private void NotifyPropertyChanged(String propertyName)
    {
        if (PropertyChanged != null)
        {
            PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
        }
    }
    public override string ToString()
    {
        return string.Format("{0}", portID);
    }
}

The creation of the data in availableClientPorts is:
            for (int i = 1; i <= 3; i++)
        {
            totalAvailablePorts newPort = new totalAvailablePorts();
            newPort.portID = i;
            newPort.isSelected = false;
            layer2InfoConfig.availableClientPorts.Add(newPort);
        }

Now, in my MainWindow I'm binding the ListBox to the Layer2Info.availableClientPorts like this:
clientPortsList.ItemsSource = layer2InfoConfig.availableClientPorts;

and last is my xaml:
<ListBox x:Name="clientPortsList"
         SelectionMode="Extended"
         DisplayMemberPath="{Binding Path=portID}"
         SelectedValuePath="{Binding Path=isSelected}"
         Height="50"/>

Now, i'm able to see all the ports (1-3) in the ListBox, but what I want to do is that on every line that I select in the ListBox, I want the isSelected value in the availableClientPorts to change to true, and I have no idea where to start.
Any suggestions?

A: First, SelectedValuePath isn't what you think. MSDN says it "Gets or sets the path that is used to get the SelectedValue from the SelectedItem." So when the user selects an item, the clientPortsList will take that property of its own SelectedItem, and return the value of that property from clientPortsList.SelectedValue. With multi-select, that's not a real useful concept for you, and anyhow it's unrelated to the question you're asking here.
What you want to do is, for each totalAvailablePorts instance, bind the isSelected property of that instance to the IsSelected property of the ListBoxItem that owns it. You could do that with an item template, but a Style is much simpler (and better, if you aren't interested in recreating or altering the default ListBoxItem visual behavior). That answer is already on StackOverflow:
<ListBox ItemsSource="..."
    x:Name="clientPortsList"
    SelectionMode="Extended"
    DisplayMemberPath="{Binding Path=portID}" >
  <ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
   <Style TargetType="{x:Type ListBoxItem}">
     <!-- binding totalAvailablePorts.isSelected to ListBoxItem.IsSelected -->
     <Setter Property="IsSelected" Value="{Binding isSelected}"/>
   </Style>
  </ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
 </ListBox>

For the ListBoxItem instances, their DataContext will be their respective totalAvailablePorts instances, so isSelected (lower-case I) will be "in scope".


This image was originally created for the art collective SlashTHREE. The theme centres on subjects such as temptation, vice and virtue and displays biblical undertones. "I want people to discover things in this piece and decide what it means to them," reveals artist Giacomino.
Many photo elements were pasted, changed drastically with adjustment layers and manual painting techniques. The lighting was mostly generated in Photoshop. "Screen and Overlay blending modes were helpful. The light source is essentially a beam. I sampled tone, analysed elements in the scene and tried to adjust everything appropriately," Giacomino explains.
This barren image shows the original stock photo of the female model. The pose is dynamic and offers plenty of potential. Her hair style motivated me to try something more surreal.
I decided to use a dark background, making the lighting and touches of colour the eye-candy in this piece. The vines and colouring are essentially the main focus of the image. Other natural features were added as secondary elements.
I detailed the left side of the piece, which is the focal point. The composition was unbalanced so I clipped out the man and used a blend to fix this. Paying attention to detail and working on each new element individually helped ensure better-quality effects.
Brilliant work. Your method is very easy. Thanks for sharing.


NEW ALBANY, MISSISSIPPI . . . Showing a portion of the downtown business section of this thriving city in Union County, Mississippi.
Still pretty much looks like that now.
It hasn't changed much. What's wild is people parking in the middle of the street. Yep! That's right. If you can't find a spot in front of Sugaree's Bakery, and the middle of the street is empty – pull over to the middle. ENJOY!
Im searching for information on a black owned business in New Albany, Ms. It was owned and operated by Wade L. Ivy, originally from Lafayette County. The business in the 1950s into the 60s was a cafe/cab stand then known as The Uptown Cafe located across from the train station where there were about 4 other black owned businesses in the same area situated between two railroad tracks in a kind of "V" look in the location.
Can you send me a web site i can go to where i might find the background of this area and its businesses .

We know with a fairly high degree of certainty that raising the minimum wage will reduce employment (although a few proponents still fail to recognize that the demand for unskilled labor responds negatively to higher labor costs). Thoughtful students also recognize that the cuts in employment induced by raising the minimum wage will result in few if any people losing their jobs. An increase in the minimum wage does not increase the unemployment rate; instead, it reduces employment, as jobs that would otherwise have been created are not created, and some workers simply are not hired.
With the federal minimum wage currently at $7.25 per hour and an average wage nationally around $20 per hour, President Obama's proposed increase to $9 per hour will not affect most workers. In fact, it will not even affect unskilled workers. There just are not that many workers who would be paid this little. But it will affect some. It will raise some current workers' wages, but it will to some small extent reduce the employment levels of other low-skilled workers. My own best guess is that after two years it will cost perhaps 100,000 or 200,000 jobs that would otherwise have been created. In an economy approaching 150 million jobs, this is a drop in the bucket. Moreover, with economic growth accelerating, as it now is in the US, a loss of this relatively tiny number of jobs will not be noticed.
The Obama proposal will make things slightly worse for the few unskilled workers who do not get the jobs that they otherwise would have obtained, and that is unfortunate. For this reason – because it reduces employment and job opportunities – I dislike the minimum wage. In a better world, one in which people were more sensible about economic policy, we would abolish it entirely; in the world we live in, that is not going to happen. So even though the net effect of the proposed increase on the economy is small (but negative), and even though its proponents have an ostrich-like view of econometric evidence and, more importantly, of basic economic theory, I would like to see the proposed increase enacted if – and this is a very big if – President Obama's other minimum-wage proposal is enacted simultaneously.
Almost unnoticed in the discussion of the President's State of the Union message was his proposal for indexing the minimum wage – allowing it to increase with inflation. In 1974 the US House of Representatives came within one vote of passing a bill that would have done precisely that, but since then the idea has been almost entirely ignored. Why would its enactment be a good thing?
Most importantly, it would almost surely obviate the periodic discussions about raising the minimum wage that have typically occurred when the minimum falls by about five percent relative to average wages. (If you graph the minimum relative to the average wage since 1938, when the Fair Labor Standards Act created the federal minimum wage, you will see that it looks like a series of saw-teeth with a slight downward trend). These discussions take up a tremendous amount of congressional and other energies. More importantly, they provide rallying points for conservative legislators to extort money from business groups and for liberal legislators to extort funds from trade unions and similar organizations. The Minimum Wage Wars thus contribute to the polarization of American politics and to its total immersion in money to an extent far greater than the importance of the legislation would dictate.
Until the early 1980s, Social Security (public retirement) benefits were increased periodically after much discussion in Congress, just as the minimum wage has been. We had the good sense to index these benefits to price inflation, with the desirable result of minimizing debates over the size of increases. Each January every Social Security recipient (including this 69-year-old beneficiary) receives a slightly higher check than in the previous month. No Congressional time is wasted discussing this increase, and interest groups are not spurred to fund legislators based on their willingness or unwillingness to raise benefits. Since these benefits maintain consumption, indexing them to prices makes sense – doing so maintains their purchasing power (although it is pretty clear that the indexing has been over-generous because it has used an incorrect measure of inflation).
We can do a similar thing with the minimum wage. Each year, as the President proposes, we should raise the minimum by some measure of inflation. This will end the Minimum Wage Wars, which will allow Congress to spend its time more productively by removing one of the regrettably many issues that have contributed to big-money politics in Washington.
The only question is how to index the minimum wage. President Obama proposes using the consumer price index. I disagree – a better way to index the minimum wage would be to use the growth in the average wage, so that the minimum remains unchanged relative to the average. Since over the long haul wages rise more rapidly than prices (the average real wage has increased over the last several decades), my proposal would raise labor costs more than the President's. But it is logically better and fairer: the minimum wage is, after all, the price of an hour of time of a (low-skilled) worker, so indexing it to average wage growth parallels indexing a consumption-maintenance scheme like Social Security to the price of consumption goods.
The United Kingdom and France both index their minimum wages. Not surprisingly, therefore, we have not seen the periodic debates over the appropriate level of the minimum in either of those countries that we have in the US. Indexation has reduced the importance of the minimum wage as a subject of political discussion, at least as compared to the US.
Thus for politico-economic reasons, the President's proposals should both be adopted, with my slight modification to the method of indexation. (Much less importantly, and aside from the political benefits, enacting them will give economic researchers an incentive to spend their time more usefully, by concentrating on other, more important research topics.) The costs in terms of jobs not created are small, and in terms of improving a faltering political system, the gains should not be underestimated.

'Arrow' Season 3's next Episode Will Have Team Arrow, Still without Arrow, Continue the Fight with the Criminal Mastermind Brick Who Schemes to Take over the Glades
7:05 AM EDT 3/14/2015 by Kara Michelle, Celebeat Reporter
The CW's Arrow Season 3's 17th episode is entitled "The Offer" and it airs on Wednesday, March 18, at its appointed 8:00-9:00 pm time slot. Directed by Dermott Downs from a script written by Beth Schwartz and Brian Ford Sullivan, the network's official synopsis says that Oliver (Stephen Amell) still weighed down by his last meeting with Ra's al Ghul (guest star Matt Nable), returns home to find a new villain and his crew have started terrorizing Starling City - Michael Amar AKA Murmur (guest star Adrian Glynn McMorran), a man whose mouth has been sewn shut.
Murmur, in the DC comic book mythology, was once a respected surgeon who after succumbing to madness started a killing spree to stop the voices inside his head. Because of his dementia, he cut out his own tongue and sewed his mouth shut to stop himself from uncontrollably blurting out whatever comes to mind. He incriminated himself once and as a consequence was sentenced to death by lethal injection. Unfortunately, he failed to die because of certain abnormalities in his bloodstream. Murmur is a master at creating and designing virus and toxins.
Also in next week's episode, Laurel (Katie Cassidy) and Nyssa (guest star Katrina Law) bond over their issues with their fathers and Nyssa make Laurel an offer. Thea (Willa Holland) is forced to come to terms with her father after Oliver brings Malcom (John Barrowman) to the loft to recover. And Lance (Paul Blackthorne) shuts out both Laurel and the Arrow. As seen last week, Ra's al Ghul not only spared Oliver's life. He also told him that he wanted him to become his successor. Moreover, in one of the promo photos for the upcoming episode show, Merlyn is seen back Safely in his home, meaning Ra's a Ghul may have also consented to letting Oliver have him.
Perhaps this may have been much too unsettling for Nyssa. Not only was she to be denied her birthright to be head of the League of Assassins as her father's successor, she was also deprived of the chance to avenge and get justice for her lover Sara's murder. Law in an interview with TV Line about the character she portrays on Arrow said: "She's no longer heir to the demon. She no longer has her lover, who I'm sure she was thinking about keeping around forever. She's essentially lost everything. For the first time in her life, she is vulnerable and she feels weak and useless; it's very jarring. You're going to see Nyssa trying to figure out who she is and what she stands for now." But in Laurel, she will find an ally, teasing, "The two of them may have more in common than Nyssa originally thought."

This past weekend I attended the annual conference of the New England chapter of the Society of Children's Book Writer's and Illustrators (NESCBWI).
Now, when I was first learning about writing, I had no idea that SCBWI existed. I was skeptical because there were a lot of fluff organizations and books out there about writing for children. But then I started taking craft class at Grub Street in Boston and my professors there unanimously told us to go become members. So I did. And I have to say, five years later, it is one of the best investments I've made: SCBWI gives key information, sends out a strong publication every few months, and hosts extremely useful conferences. I've attended my regional NESCBWI conference every year and, to its credit, it has inspired me and taught me concrete things to work on at every stage of my development as a writer: from newbie with no idea what I was doing to debut author with a major publishing house.
This year's conference was particularly FUN though for another reason… my amazing writer's group! Katie Slivensky, Annie Cardi, Julia Maranan, Lauren Barrett & Lisa Palin completely rallied around me & my book– they create a GOLDEN BOY gift basket to be raffled off, they handed out postcards to anyone who asked AND, coolest of all, they made and wore matching t-shirts all day long on Saturday. The front said "Ask me about Habo," and the back had my cover, Kirkus review tag line, and release date. Seriously: best writer's group ever.


The new season began in soaring temperatures with 11 fixtures, seven of which were in the Black Dragon Badges South division.
Eastwood Community were quickly out of the blocks at home to Pinxton, carrying on the form they displayed at the end of the last campaign.
A three goal blast in five first half minutes set them up for a notable 4-0 win with Tim Adcock, Kye Hall and Warren Hatfield putting them well in control by the half hour mark.
Hall added a second on the stroke of half time, and despite a second half improvement, Pinxton couldn't reduce the arrears.
Hucknall Town are another team of whom much is expected, and they also got off to a winning start with a 3-0 defeat of Collingham.
Ben Waplington opened the scoring with just five minutes gone, Adam Nelson doubled the score on the hour, with Montell Gatland adding a third five minutes from the end.
Another team making a reappearance after a lengthy break are Selston, who had a see-saw battle at fellow newcomers Matlock Town reserves, the Gladiators coming out on top 5-4.
Sean Gregory put Selston two up, Matlock pulling level before Carl Moore again gave the Notts side the advantage.
It was 3-3 at the break, Matlock taking a two goal lead before Joe Riley added Selston's fourth.
Scorers for the home side were Dave Edge with two, Marcus Beddoe, Alex Hewitt and Jack Siddall.
The two teams transferred from the northern division met at the ATB Civil Engineering ground and it was Sherwood Colliery who claimed the points with a 2-1 defeat of Clay Cross Town.
Tristan Burrell struck first for the Wood after just seven minutes, Mark Carter adding a second on 21 minutes.
The Millers upped their game in the second half but could only pull one back through Tomas Poole.
The other three matches all ended deadlocked. Keyworth United marked their league debut with a 2-2 draw at Swanwick Pentrich Road. Dean Bussey and Luke Burrell scored Keyworth's first league goals with Ian Milsom and Ash Buxton replying for the Swans.
Holbrook St Michaels led through Cornelius Ogunlade at Mickleover RBL, but Micky Moon clinched a point for the Legion. Blidworth Welfare and Belper United plated out a goalless draw.
There were just four games in the Black Dragon Badges North division.
Ollerton Town made the most of the sunshine at Easington United coming back on the right end of a 4-1 scoreline.
The Eastenders took the lead through Alex Dickinson on 20 minutes, but Liam Carver equalised less than a minute later. Jamie Charlton put the visitors in front at the interval, and further goals from Kyle Clarkson and Craig Stanton ensured the points for Ollerton.
Newark Town fought all the way against Glapwell, but went down 3-1 at Collingham. Lee Naughton's goal was the difference between the teams at half-time, Ryan Cancellara's intended cross evading the Newark keeper to double the advantage. Jake Reynolds pulled one back for Newark, but Josh Clayton's goal settled matters in favour of the visitors.
Retford made their entrance to the CML a successful one, travelling to Dinnington Town where two Will Tomlinson goals gave them the edge, the second one a well-flighted free kick.


In the course of a year, I had to make the two biggest career decisions to date. The first was whether or not to leave my full-time job in which I had obtained a coveted position after much hard work, but had found myself deliriously unhappy struggling with work life balance. And then the second, six months later, whether or not to leave the full-time days at home with my children, coffee and play dates with other moms, and all I said I wanted for so long, to get back in the workforce accepting a part time position in my field.
Both of these decisions kept me up at night, so fearful of making the wrong choice and being able to undo it and what people would think of me. During a tumultuous time, it was my sisters' advice and support that was of the most meaningful I received.
They had tremendous work experience and could understand my career goals and ambition, however, were in different fields and also had not yet had to make similar family choices. But it didn't matter. Sisters can't always relate to your unique situation or empathize with your inner conflict. But there are few people who know you better or can give you objective career advice because they have no stake in the situation other than wanting to see you happy.
Talking to them forced me to acknowledge the likelihood of anything truly being "part time", given my personality and propensity to never say no. I couldn't BS them. But their experience also said this was a unique opportunity to "have the best of both worlds", which is probably what I really wanted all along, and was worth taking a chance.
Giving me that perspective that should it not work out, there was little to lose, other than maybe some money spent on new work clothes. There was no judgment for reneging on a decision so soon after the first one and there would be no judgment should I change my mind again. I know I lucked out with my lot.
Your "sister" may be a good mentor or friend. It's that person that even when they don't have all the answers, you know they will give you an honest opinion and long-term support. Sisterly advice can be blunt when it needs to be, kinder gentler when needed, but always from the heart. It can make even the most challenging decisions less daunting as you know if you fail, they'll still be in your corner.

Q: Adding worksheet_Change in another workbook How should I go about adding a worksheet_change subroutine in another workbook? I have a daily job run which pick up file from the server, open it, do some formatting change, and then pass it back to the end users to work on it. One of the formatting change I need to do to the file is to create dependent drop down list through data validation.
Supposedly I have two fields, "Main_Category" and "Sub_Category", I want to be able to let end users to make their selections based on a standardized drop down list. Once users made their selection for "Main_Category", the drop down list for "Sub_Category" will be populated based on the "Main_Category". My dilemma is that if the users changed their mind on the "Main_Category" after selecting "Sub_Category", excel will not clear this selection..
My thought is to add a worksheet_change to the file. But how should I go about doing this?

A: Not sure if I got the exact point of your question, but hope this helps.
To identify changes on a worksheet, you may use two main methods:

*

*SelectionChange - Occurs when the selection changes on a
worksheet

*Change - Occurs when cells on the worksheet are changed by the
user or by an external link

You may find how to use the same on the links above. Basically you will need to add the corresponding method to the sheet on which you want to track changes (you may do this by selecting the sheet code on VBE and typing the code there), then use the Target parameter to get more information about the change which occurred and executed the required code (for example to clear or update the value of some range).
This will work fine, considering that you add the code to each workbook/worksheets on which you need it.
Add code programatically to a workbook:
If you would like to programatically add this code to new workbooks, you will need to Trust access to the VBA project object model, as described on:

*

*https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/282830.

*https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/tt6cbe57.aspx
Still, please notice that this is not recommended from a security perspective, as this will allow other programs to change, replicate and run any code inside excel. If you really need this, an options is to manually change this option before running a macro and then change it back again.

Koreans stuck on cruise ship likely to be repatriated
The Korean government said Sunday that it is considering repatriating its nationals aboard a quarantined cruise ship moored off the coast of Japan.
Since the Diamond Princess was quarantined at Yokohama Port earlier this month after confirming an infection of the novel coronavirus, 14 Koreans - nine passengers and five crew members - have remained inside the ship.
The Japanese government announced a plan to release passengers who test negative for the contagious virus from Wednesday.
"Even before Feb. 19, we will go on with plans to bring back our nationals who test negative and want to come to Korea," Health Minister Park Neung-hoo said in a briefing. "We will first check their intention and cooperate with the Japanese government."
He said the Seoul government will give full support to all Korean passport holders on board even if they do not want to return to Korea.
Currently about 3,400 people from more than 50 countries are aboard the ship, with hundreds of former passengers having disembarked due largely to old age or infection with the novel virus.
Korea on Saturday stepped up efforts to support its 14 citizens aboard a quarantined cruise ship moored off the coast of Japan by sending them food, hygiene products and other commodities and checking their status.
Yoon Hee-chan, the Korean consul general in Yokohama, delivered the second batch of items, including kimchi, instant noodles and soaps, to employees of the ship operator.
"As we have received requests [from the Korean passengers], we have prepared them," Yoon said. "We plan to provide more to them until Feb. 19, the date when they are scheduled to be released from quarantine."
Most of the remaining passengers have received necessities individually from their families or acquaintances.
The consul general pointed out that his mission has been checking the 14 Koreans twice a day and that none of them have shown signs of illness.
"The Korean Embassy in Japan and the Consulate General in Yokohama plan to provide consular assistance through such efforts as constantly contacting them and offering conveniences," he added.

Scientists Uncover a "Hidden" Portrait by Edgar Degas
A powerful X-ray unveiled one of the painter's rough drafts

For decades, art conservationists have relied on methods like the chemical analysis of miniscule flecks of paint and detailed knowledge of the exact pigments used to restore paintings faded by the years. Now, using a powerful X-ray scanner called a synchrotron, a group of researchers have uncovered an early draft of a portrait by Edgar Degas.
Since 1922, art historians have known that Degas' Portrait of a Woman was painted on top of an earlier image. The painting was completed in the 1870s, but just a few decades later parts began to fade, revealing a ghostly image lurking underneath. Experts long believed that it was caused by an earlier draft that Degas had made on the same canvas, but traditional restoration methods made it impossible to find out more without destroying the painting. In a new study published in the journal Scientific Reports, however, a team of conservators and scientists were able to peer beneath the paint using the high-powered scanner.
"The X-ray fluorescence technique used at the Australian Synchrotron has the potential to reveal metal distributions in the pigments of underlying brushstrokes, providing critical information about the painting," study co-author Daryl Howard writes in an email to Smithsonian.com. "This detector allows us to scan large areas of an object such as a painting in a short amount of time in a non-invasive manner."
The synchrotron can determine the distribution of pigments down to a fraction of a millimeter. Once the scan is finished, the data can be reconstructed by a computer to make full-color digital recreations of the artwork, paint layer by paint layer. Similar to a hospital X-ray machine, the synchrotron uses high-intensity light to take a look beneath the surface of a subject. When scanning the portrait, Howard and conservator David Thurrowgood not only got a look at the long-lost image: they could even see what color it once was.

"The big advantage of a data set like this is that it becomes possible to virtually (digitally) dismantle a painting before a conservation treatment starts," Thurrowgood writes. "We can immediately see where changes and additions have been made, if there are any unexpected pigments, if there are pigments which are known to degrade in response to particular environments."
The reconstruction of the underpainting bears a striking resemblance to Emma Dobigny, a woman who posed for several of Degas' other paintings. But while Thurrowgood and Howard believe the synchrotron can be powerful tools for conservators, it hasn't been easy to get the art world on board.
"The technique is well outside of the experience level many conventionally trained conservators, and there have been well meaning questions like 'will it burn a hole in it?'" Thurrowgood writes. "Educating people about the techniques and understanding their fears has been an important issue as these paintings are very valuable, culturally and financially."
That meant years of testing many kinds of paints before they could turn the machine on a priceless piece by Degas. However, the researchers were able to demonstrate that the technique is even less destructive and provides much better detail than a standard X-ray.
In the past, conservators have had to physically scrape off tiny flecks of the original paint to analyze its chemistry, and even X-rays can produce damaging radiation. A synchrotron scan, on the other hand, allows researchers to figure out a pigment's chemistry without touching the painting, and it uses purer, more powerful light than an X-ray that leaves behind much less radiation.
"Care of art over hundreds of years is a complicated problem, and this is a tool which gives a completely new set of information to use for approaching that problem," Thurrowgood writes. "The needs of individual artworks can be understood in a way that was not previously possible, and the future survival of the painting can be approached very differently."

The Recruiting Sector is Creating Durable Revenue Streams, with Higher Margins
In further expansion of its offerings, Korn Ferry is looking to take advantage of half a century of intellectual property data, along with new acquisitions, to add a broader digital segment to its business. Investment firm Kerrisdale Capital sees a "unique opportunity" for investors. We see more opportunity for search firms like Options Group, Russell Reynolds Associates and others.
February 13, 2020 – Korn Ferry will begin reporting a "KF Digital" segment that consolidates its compensation databases, leadership development platforms and sales training modules into one reporting disclosure, according to a new report by investment firm Kerrisdale Capital. By the next fiscal year, KF Digital should generate $400 million in revenue as a stand-alone unit. Other search firms are following suit as they turn to high margin platforms for growth and expansion. It is a topic Hunt Scanlon Media will address in the April issue of its newsletter ESR and in the Greenwich, Conn-based research company's annual State of the Industry rankings report this spring.
Two aspects set Korn Ferry apart from others in the recruiting industry, however, and they are important leverage points: a 50-year heritage with a top-tier brand name and a rich set of proprietary data and applications built through its decades of experience, said Kerrisdale Capital. By working on more assignments than others, tracking offered and accepted salaries, and developing leadership teams for its clients, Korn Ferry created digital platforms backed by hard data and stress-tested over many years. The firm now owns compensation records for 20 million people and competency profiles on 1.2 million executives, among other mineable databases. These are the sorts of metrics and research & data platforms that private equity firms now give added multiples to when they invest in executive search firms. This will be a topic for the second installment of 'Funding Growth & Expansion: How Search Firms Can Raise Capital and Leverage Liquidity,' a Hunt Scanlon conference set for later this year in New York.
According to customers that Kerrisdale Capital has spoken to, products like Korn Ferry Pay (used by over 70 percent of the Fortune 500), Competency Profile Manager, KF Interview Architect and Executive Success Profiles have become industry standards. Until now, these products were co-mingled with the advisory business, giving investors little visibility into their size, margin profile or growth potential.
But this changes next quarter: Korn Ferry's existing digital business ($275 million of revenue) will coalesce with three recent acquisitions ($125 million of revenue) to create a $400 million business by April. The digital business will offer everything from rewards databases to training and development, with exciting cross-selling potential as Korn Ferry leverages its global, blue-chip customer base. Management believes the business can grow revenue in the mid-to-high single digits with less cyclicality than executive staffing, making KF Digital more comparable to a data services business than a legacy recruiter, said the investment firm.
Mining Digital Data
Certainly a growing number of search firms are seeing the value in mining digital data to improve and grow their business. People analytics, for instance, is one area that is up and coming in a big way. The idea is to apply advanced computing capabilities to talent-related data to better predict employee behavior. "This people analytics approach has been adopted with the aim of simultaneously doing a better job of improving performance, acquiring top talent and reducing turnover," said Richard Stein, chief growth officer at Options Group, in a recent report.
"In real-world experience too many big organizations are finding it difficult to reap the promised return from investment in people analytics," he said. "The difficulty stems in large part from the inability of many organizations to translate data into practical action."
According to many of the CHROs Options Group spoke with as it gathered market intelligence from a broad spectrum of organizations, the two most common complaints are that predictive results from people analytics models have not proven to be significantly better than traditional human-rich people-management; the other: people analytics teams are too often viewed inside their organizations as merely data analysts, detached from the realities of talent management and without authority to change behaviors.
"It's not surprising that many executives would like to forget the whole thing and revert to traditional talent management," said Mr. Stein. "But that would be a mistake. The firms that continue building people analytics capabilities appreciate how powerful the systematic harnessing of people data can be – once, that is, they've gone through the early teething pain."
Sophisticated Tools
"Good data will never replace good judgment, but it is essential to informing it," said former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg not long ago. And while people analytics will never be a substitute for the application of human judgment to talent-management practice, said Mr. Stein, "it offers sophisticated tools for augmenting and improving that judgment."
"Decades of research convincingly describe how relationships among employees – together with individual attributes – explain workplace performance," said Mr. Stein. "All you need is to find patterns in the data. Simple."
Among the most important recent breakthroughs in this area is the work of Paul Leonardi, professor of technology management at the University of California, and Noshir Contractor, professor of behavioral sciences at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. The two have spent thousands of hours appraising how companies can design networks in their organizations to create and share knowledge. Messrs. Leonardi and Contractor's research demonstrates how data-intensive technologies, such as simulation and social-media tools, afford new ways to access, store and share information. They explore how the data developed by these technologies can change work routines and raise performance. Intriguingly, they've also shown how shifts in work and communication alter the nature of an organization's expertise.
The digital motifs comprising relational analytics, in particular, are generally derived from logs, emails and the contents of everyday interoffice activity. "These can be used to construct a view of employee, team and organizational networks in which it is possible to pick out patterns," Mr. Stein said. "Navigating these patterns depends on ensuring correlation to specific behaviors in relation to individual, team and organizational communications."
As for Korn Ferry, its November acquisitions of Miller Heiman, AchieveForum and Strategy Execution also offer immediate accretion to next year's financials. Since Korn Ferry can leverage existing customer relationships without the need for additional selling or marketing costs, it expects these acquisitions (and restructuring efforts within digital) to add $35 million to $40 million to its run-rate EBITDA and $0.40-$0.45 to EPS. Markets may have overlooked this upside since current fiscal third quarter guidance includes little near-term accretion, but that's because an expensive shared services agreement remains in place until fiscal Q4 2020. As this contract lapses and Korn Ferry works through one-time severance costs, the upside for fiscal 2021 will become readily apparent, said Kerrisdale Capital.
Building a Talent Function for the Future
Societal shifts and the organizational response they require have boosted talent strategy, says a new report by Russell Reynold Associates. Increasingly, investments in talent have gone beyond improving the organization to providing benefits to customers and investors as well as an organization's board.
Of the $400 million in new KF Digital revenue, roughly $100 million comes from rewards databases, $120 million from talent assessment, $120 million from learning development and $60 million from organizational strategy. While already substantial, Korn Ferry CEO Gary Burnison sees additional assets to monetize for its digital business over time. "So I believe that there is a substantial amount of energy in the organization around mining the data, packaging it with IP, and then trying to productize it," he said in the fiscal Q1 2019 earnings call. Kerrisdale Capital said that organic investments like this, combined with potential additional acquisitions in fiscal 2021, mean that KF Digital will only become a larger part of the business mix over time.
RPO Business
Named a leader in both the Everest Re Global RPO survey and HRO Today ranking, Korn Ferry's RPO segment has grown from less than 10 percent of Korn Ferry's EBITDA to almost 25 percent by the end of 2020. This success mirrors an industry-wide shift towards RPO firms, with the industry expected to grow 20 to 30 percent over the next five years. Kerrisdale Capital said that "workforce churn is a daily challenge for internal HR departments: tenured floor managers join a competitor, data scientists find higher paid work elsewhere, and engineers take their talents on the road. And in the age of LinkedIn, dozens of job boards, and ever-increasing Google SEO complexity, a single HR or talent executive can no longer manage the dozens of software systems and processes required to replace this ever-present churn in the organization."

Korn Ferry's RPO business was built over many years to address these concerns. The Futurestep brand, now retired under the Korn Ferry banner, was first created in 1998 (plans were even made to create a tracking stock before the dot-com crash). Korn Ferry's RPO segment includes both pure-RPO and professional services; the latter includes middle-management assignments too junior for the executive search segment. Combined, these two segments have grown at a 19 percent compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five years.
Korn Ferry Digital Business to Unlock Value
For the first time in the fiscal 2019, Korn Ferry disclosed a revenue figure for its proprietary digital products, hidden deep within its financial filings, said Kerrisdale Capital. The market appears to have ignored this disclosure for now, but that should change after Korn Ferry breaks digital out into an independent reporting segment in its upcoming quarterly press release. While the core staffing business exhibits business cyclicality – hiring grows over time but pauses during periods of uncertainty – Korn Ferry's digital business can hold firm during periods of stress. Customers are loathe to cancel licenses for daily-use tools like compensation databases and talent assessment files. Newer products like software and training for sales representatives become profit-centers as they drive improved sales productivity. As uptake grows for these data-driven tools, Korn Ferry's margins benefit from lower incremental costs: unlike the firm's people-driven search and consulting practices, each new digital revenue dollar requires little new operating expense.
As of the fiscal 2019, digital products contributed over $250 million in revenue. But this figure will jump to $400 million, or 20 percent of overall fee revenue, after the November acquisition of three new digital training tools ($125 million of acquired revenue). The new portfolio consists of $100 million of revenue from rewards databases, $120 million for assessment and succession, $120 million in learning development/sales training, and $60 million for organizational strategy. Korn Ferry's compensation database is a world-leader, with 20 million high-quality records for base salaries, incentive structures, and benefits programs. Its leadership assessment tools were built over 50 years, amassing 70 million leadership profiles used to assess employee skill-matching. This Big Data approach separates KF Digital from competitors, with customers frequently remarking on the robustness of these solutions.
Worth Attention
Korn Ferry's RPO business has quietly compounded at 20 percent since fiscal 2015 with little variability and consistent new business wins, said Kerrisdale Capital. Even during 2016 when search reported flat or slightly negative quarters, the as-disclosed RPO segment – current disclosures lump contracted RPO with a more variable middle-market professional search services – grew nine to 13 percent through the same quarters. If we assume a roughly equal mix, as confirmed in the fiscal Q1 2020 investor presentation (53 percent pure-RPO/47 percent professional search), the pure-RPO segment probably grew 20 percent even in 2016. This product began as a niche business to supplement executive recruiting but has now become 10 percent of Korn Ferry's revenue – certainly worth investors' attention.

Management is taking steps to highlight the recurring nature of its pure-RPO segment. After providing the mix breakdown at the end of last year, it's spent time on quarterly calls highlighting the segment's new business wins. The most recent quarter marked a seasonal record for new wins at $118 million of long-term RPO contracts. Kerrisdale Capital said that these are typically three-to-five-year contracts with retainer fees and recurring variable hiring requirements – minimum hiring goals are frequently given over the contracted timeframe – providing Korn Ferry with much higher visibility than a typical staffing assignment. As outsourcing contracts mature into their third and fourth years, companies find themselves ever more reliant on their RPO provider, aiding the renewal process. Of the $118 million in new wins, more than half came from existing clients.
RPO contracts are also an important component of Korn Ferry's expansion into marquee and regional accounts (now 30 percent of revenue, with a target of 40 to 45 percent), as clients hire search for executive recruiting assignments, Korn Ferry digital for compensation and training programs, and the RPO for a 100-person regional staffing need, said Kerrisdale Capital. These larger enterprises are also more likely to invest during periods of economic contraction, fortifying the business as it builds a full product suite to serve the needs of corporations like Mars, CDK Global and Expedia.
Valuation and Conclusion
Korn Ferry's valuation benefits from a very low starting point: it maddeningly trades at a discount not only to more cyclical peers like Robert Half, but also to slower-growth European-centric firms like Randstad and Manpower, said the investment firm. And Korn Ferry's earnings are tangible: recurring capital requirements are low while full year working capital needs are balanced, leading to high free cash flow conversion. Korn Ferry's even expenses share-based compensation (about $0.40/share), an increasingly rare and conservative reporting standard in a market usually willing to overlook its cost.
And this substantial fundamental upside is paired with an imminent revaluation catalyst: next quarter's new digital disclosures and the 10 to 15 percent accretion expected by the April quarter. At the start of fiscal 2021 KF Digital becomes a $400 million revenue business, said the investment firm. The RPO segment, in turn, will grow into a $75 million EBITDA business, of which $40 million is contracted RPO (i.e. three to five year assignments with recurring projects) and $35 million is middle-market professional search. With the overall company projected to post $310 million of consolidated EBITDA in fiscal 2020, Digital and contracted RPO together become substantial contributors and should elevate Korn Ferry's valuation ahead of traditional recruiting firms.
As the strength of Korn Ferry's business units comes to light, Kerrisdale Capital said that shares can trade towards $60 to 65, more than 50 percent higher. The digital business can trade closer to digital consulting peers like HURN and FCN, the contracted RPO can earn a growth multiple, and improved results for core search and consulting can push Korn Ferry off of its trough multiple. At a share price of $65, Korn Ferry would trade at just 17x P/E – more consistent with its valuation over time.
In a market reaching daily highs every day, shares of Korn Ferry offer a unique opportunity: a cheap valuation with a clean balance sheet, new disclosures that re-categorize Korn Ferry from a niche staffing firm to a digital-led services business, and an expected 10 to 16 percent of EPS accretion after acquired products roll off their shared services agreement. A 50-year history has created a treasure trove of data: a compensation database with 20 million real-world precedents, leadership assessment tools incorporate 70 million prior assessments, and leading sales training toolkits and software. Above-market growth should return in the April 2020 fiscal year as Korn Ferry laps much easier comparisons and its contracted RPO and digital products become a greater portion of mix. "Say goodbye to the overlooked, under-covered KFY and say hello to the new Korn Ferry Digital," said Kerrisdale Capital.

This book charts some of the unique and extraordinary achievements of Descendants youth organisation, from its founding in 1993 to March 2012.
Open this book to read how Descendants young people met the Queen at Buckingham Palace, and performed at her Golden Jubilee parade. They were invited to help launch an education bill, with the then Prime Minister, Tony Blair. Follow Descendants as they perform at the Royal Albert Hall for Patti Boulaye's charity, they act in a film made and directed by Pogus Caesar (which was shown alongside Steve McQueen's films at the Lumiere Theatre) they visit Oxford University, their artwork is exhibited at Pitzhanger Manor Art Gallery, they raise money for charities, and meet famous and inspirational people.
Descendants Annual Achievement Awards honour the achievements of young people of African and Caribbean descent from Descendants and Ealing schools.
There have been many other inspiring projects and events. Recent initiatives include helping to organise a conference, setting up accredited parenting classes and boys-only and girls-only clubs.
This book is inspirational reading for young people, parents, teachers, youth workers, and anyone who believes in what young people can achieve. It is all the more important that young people and adults, all members of the Descendants community, have worked together to write the story.
This is a great achievement for Descendants, publishing their first book 'Echoes From the Past' and I think it is a great way to document all the success stories, struggles and triumphs of such an inspiring, beneficial community youth organisation. I look forward to reading it.


It is well known that at final harvest the crown of sugar beet contains less sugar and more molassigenic compounds than the storage root. Only little, however, is known on the ontogenetic changes especially of the components of 'Harmful Nitrogen'. They were studied with two genotypes which differed in the a-amino-N content by a factor of almost 2; the plants were grown in field trials with 4 replicates in the year 2002 at three sites in Germany. Our results indicate that, independent of the genotype, both storage root and crown are a sink for sucrose whereas only the crown is a sink for 'Harmful Nitrogen'. The latter increased in the crown but declined in the storage root with increasing plant age. At any time point the concentration of 'Harmful Nitrogen' was severalfold higher in the crown than in the storage root. As a consequence, the low processing quality of the crown became even worse with increasing plant age whereas the opposite held true for the storage root. Genotypic differences stayed rather constant in the storage root but increased slightly in the crown with increasing plant age.

The nation's favourite hymn
As demonstrated by Euro 2020, singing together matters – a lot! – which is why I can't wait for the return of congregational singing next week
Image by from Pixabay
Euro 2020 and the forthcoming resumption of singing in English churches raise some interesting questions around why singing matters so much. So, what does 'Three Lions' and 'How Great Thou Art' have in common?
I'm a pretty average singer. On the scale of 'tone deaf to Pavarotti' I'd place myself precisely at the half-way point. Those who have ever sung in the pew or terrace in front of me would agree that I'm more about quantity rather than quality. And in the last year I have desperately missed singing with others.
There has also been something fascinating about watching the crowds of Euro 2020 belting out their anthems with such joy, unity and passion. Why do some football songs catch on and others fizzle out? Neil Diamond (Sweet Caroline), Rolf Soja (Yes Sir I Can Boogie) and Atomic Kitten (Whole Again) have been the unlikely providers of choruses that have resounded around Wembley, Hampden Park and beyond. Baddiel, Skinner and the Lightning Seeds will have noticed a sharp spike in royalties alongside a large helping of nostalgia as the Three Lions – the nation's favourite hymn – has reverberated around our stadia, streets and stereos.
All the while, churches groan with anticipation, waiting for the moment when humming and whispering behind masks and crooning along at home, is replaced by church families rousing one another and lifting the name of Jesus high in song. But, what is it about singing together that moves us so deeply? Why do we crave the congregation, concert and crowd?
Firstly, singing, even on our own, makes us feel good. It has a considerable effect on raising the levels of endorphins and oxytocin in our blood. No wonder the Bible repeatedly urges to "Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth." (Psalm 96:1)
Then when you explore the effects of singing together, things get even more interesting. A study of London choirs by Daniel Weinstein found that not only did singing create strong relational bonds between those who sang together, but the larger the group, the greater the sense of togetherness. No wonder there is such a strong sense of transcendent awe and corporate unity when 60,000 England fans sing, "It's coming home!"
The second commonality of football fans and Christians is a sense of worship and devotion in our singing. The fervour of adulation and idolatry of football teams is a challenge for us Christians to be as passionate about Jesus. But there is also something powerful about the way in which we sing together in yearning for a corporate desired outcome.
Russell Brand in his book Revolution observes this of fans in a football stadium and profoundly asks, "If you are in Wembley Stadium… all about you are people the same as you, singing the same songs as you, craving the same outcome as you, there is a synchronicity that takes you out of the self. Where else do we get to cry and pray and laugh and sing in communion these days?"
When we sing together as a church, at our best, this is what we do. We fix our eyes and hearts on the one Lion that will not let us down. We bind ourselves to one another, strengthen the relational bond between us in community we were created for. As people made for a different world, we yearn together for a new kingdom, on earth as it is in heaven, where every tear is wiped from every eye. That is why I've missed singing in church and humming behind a mask isn't the same.
So, when restrictions lift and we are back together in our sanctuaries, school halls and cinemas, let's not take singing for granted. Don't moan about the worship group or criticise the hymn choice, but let whatever the refrain point you to the great composer unite you with your tribe and beckon in a future where it really is coming home.
As people made for a different world, we yearn together for a new kingdom, on earth as it is in heaven, where every tear is wiped from every eye.

António Alberto Neto (Luanda, 16 de junho de 1943) é um jurista, político, escritor e professor universitário angolano.

Foi Presidente do Partido Democrático de Angola (PDA) e representante do Movimento Popular de Libertação de Angola (MPLA) nos países nórdicos de setembro de 1970 a maio de 1973. Saíde Mingas o sucedeu.

Biografia

António Alberto Neto nasceu no Bairro Operário, em Luanda, em 16 de junho de 1943. É sobrinho de Agostinho Neto, líder histórico do Movimento Popular de Libertação de Angola (MPLA).

Tornou-se notório por ter desenhado a bandeira do MPLA em 1959, que foi adoptada pelo partido no ano seguinte. No entanto sua militância política só viria tomar maiores dimensões em 1962, quando assume a responsabilidade pela "Biblioteca Revolucionária do MPLA".

Foi enviado pelo partido para cursar ciências políticas, direito e sociologia na Universidade Pierre-Mendès-France, em Grenoble. Na mesma universidade fez licenciatura em direito público e doutorado em ciências políticas. Além disso, fez especialização em direito constitucional comparado na Universidade Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.

Entre 1970 e 1973 torna-se um dos diplomatas do MPLA nos países nórdicos.

Tornou-se professor da Faculdade de Direito da Universidade Agostinho Neto (FDUAN), sendo o primeiro decano da FDUAN, em 1975.

Rompeu com o MPLA na década de 1980, durante as "purgas eduardianas", sendo preso durante nove meses em Luanda. Na altura a Amnistia Internacional qualificou-o como "prisioneiro de consciência". Foi impedido de trabalhar na FDUAN no final da década, dado sua posição crítica à cúpula do MPLA por desrespeito ao programa do partido. Foi para o Reino Unido, passando a lecionar no Universidade de Oxford e no King's College de Londres, entre 1986 e 1991.

Alberto Neto retomou o Partido Democrático de Angola (PDA), e foi o candidato presidencial por esta agremiação nas eleições gerais de 1992. Conquistou, na primeira volta, 2% dos votos, que lhe garantiu o terceiro lugar na corrida à presidência, atrás de José Eduardo dos Santos e Jonas Savimbi.

Após as eleições, volta a lecionar na FDUAN e ruma novamente para o exterior, trabalhando entre 1997 e 1999 na Universidade de Estrasburgo, e em 2000 na Universidade Lusófona de Humanidades e Tecnologias, em Lisboa. Retorna a angola como professor da FDUAN e jurisconsulto.

Go8 Media Release: Go8 to Conduct Ground Breaking Survey of PhD Outcomes
Go8 to undertake first-in-Australia survey of PhD graduate outcomes and economic benefits
The Group of Eight (Go8), which comprises Australia's leading research-intensive universities, has invited more than 20,000 of its PhD graduates to provide information on their career outcomes at three, eight and 15 years after degree completion.
This first-in-Australia survey will illustrate the enormous economic and societal contribution made to Australia, and globally, by quality Go8 PhDs. The three-year project, Understanding PhD Career Pathways, in which the Go8 has partnered with Australia's Social Research Centre, also enables benchmarking with United States institutions through a corresponding survey being undertaken by the US Council of Graduate Schools.
Vicki Thomson, Chief Executive of the Go8, says the project is "exciting and long overdue. Thousands of Go8 PhD alumni – some as far back as 15 years after graduation – are being contacted to participate in the online survey, and I encourage them to please do so.
"Most graduate outcome surveys focus on employment outcomes only post-graduation," she said. "They have not focused on careers over a 15-year span. Now we are drilling down into the detail of the many and varied careers of our PhD graduates, and how their training assisted their accomplishments, and what this has delivered for Australia.
"Being Australia's leading research-intensive universities and graduating more than half of Australia's PhDs each year, we are keen for the survey to display the Go8's solid commitment to PhD engagement with industry," said Ms Thomson.
The survey asks a wide range of questions such as:
What have been the short, mid and longer-term employment and occupational outcomes of PhD graduates?
What transitions have PhD graduates made in their careers?
How satisfied are Go8 PhD graduates with their degree and the skills training needed for their career?
"This Go8 survey is a first step in establishing the long-term evidence base to ensure that Australia receives the best research talent for a 21st Century economy", said Ms Thomson.
Further details on the survey are available at: https://www.srcentre.com.au/our-research/understanding-phd-career-pathways

My research lies at the intersection of surface and colloid science, polymer materials engineering, and biointerface science, with four central areas of focus: 1. Fabrication, manipulation and characterization of stimulus-responsive biomolecular and bio-inspired polymeric nanostructures on surfaces; 2. Nanotechnology of soft-wet materials and hybrid biological/non-biological microdevices; 3. Receptor-ligand interactions relevant to the diagnostics of infectious diseases; 4. Friction of soft-wet materials, specifically the role of glycoproteins on friction in diarthroidal joints. These four broad lines of inquiry deal with fundamental behaviors of soft-wet materials on surfaces and interfaces. The design and fabrication of these interfaces using "smart" polymeric and biomolecular nanostructures, and the characterization of the resulting structures, are critically important for the development of biomolecular sensors and devices and for bioinspired materials. Key approaches and tools I use in my research are: bottom-up organization on the molecular scale, through self-assembly, in-situ polymerization, and manipulation of intermolecular interactions; topdown fabrication, through scanning probe nanolithography; stimulus-responsive polymers; molecular recognition; and new approaches to sensing and manipulation. This research supports Duke's Pratt School of Engineering strategic initiative to expand research in soft-wet Materials Science.

If you have been at Target or Best Buy lately you know that the new line of Detective Pikachu toys are no joke. They are lining the shelves everywhere and people are buying them up in the blink of an eye. Believe me I tried Target yesterday and that aisle was a wasteland. But some good news for those of you who had the foresight to plan to see Detective Pikachu opening weekend as they have released a preview of an exclusive trading card that you will receive with ticket purchases at theaters everywhere!
If you play the game you know that the symbol next to the attacks is a "normal" type so that any element card can be applied. That means that he is welcome in any deck regardless of specialty and it looks that if he isn't against too strong of a Pokemon will be a good card to keep alive. Since he can heal himself for 30 with only one card applied and do 20 damage with 2 cards applied.
It's a nice addition to any collection, and whether or not you collect the cards you will definitely want this cute little card as remembrance for attending opening weekend.
Detective Pikachu tickets are on sale now and will premiere May 10th!

My favorite movie from year 2020. Most movies, even the greatest ones, evaporate like mist once you've returned to the real world; they leave memories behind, but their reality fades free quickly. But not Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn). There is movie in my mind, but the favorable but best movie means having a certain style that symbolizes a symbol of an movie to tell a story from the moving pictures of both an entity and a turning point of an existence. shows you change, inspiration, or influence.
Easily movie with the best dialogues ever. There is not a single thing wrong with that movie. It sets the 10/10 standard for every other movies in existence for me. This movie online seriously is incredible. My favorite movie of this director, and that's saying something!
The soundtrack, the atmosphere and the characters. The fact it still holds up so well is a testament to what a work of art it is. I decided not to load the Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) file here so everyone can now see it for free online.

New Musical "Come From Away" Commences
By Jennifer R Jones | Posted on February 18, 2017 12:08 PM
Come From Away is a new musical making its way to Broadway for the first time beginning previews today.
A September 12th Story about Travelers Stranded in Newfoundland
The world remembers September 11, 2011 as a tragic day that shall not be forgotten. While honoring this legacy, the husband and wife writing team, Irene Sankoff and David Hein, have crafted a more uplifting musical tale set on this day. Based on a true story, when the planes hit the Twin Towers, many other planes that were set to arrive in New York City were diverted to a small town in Newfoundland on the east coast of Canada. Specifically, 38 planes carrying 6,579 passengers were brought to this tiny town on the edge of the world, effectively doubling its population for the duration of their stay. Rather than focusing on the tragedy that took place on September 11th, the creators are billing this as "a September 12th story," which focused on the events that took place following the horrific day. While centering the story on this unique tale of travelers stranded in an unexpected place, it evokes the spirit of rebuilding and human compassion that is necessary to overcome the hardships of that day and renew faith in humanity. This is therefore a story that sets out to heal both hearts and minds, singing the stories of the unsung heroes of 9/11, the people who opened their homes to these stranded individuals in the wake of tragedy.
A Whirlwind of Tryouts in Regional Theatres Before Arriving in NYC
The first professional production of Come From Away took place at the La Jolla Playhouse in California in 2015, followed by the Seattle Repertory Theatre that same year. With positive reception, the show continued on its journey towards Broadway, first playing an engagement at the Ford Theatre in Washington, D.C. the fall of 2016, and then at the Royal Alexandra Theatre in Toronto, Canada over the holiday season. By its second week of performances, the Toronto run was completely sold-out, and the ticket sales eventually broke the record for this historic Toronto venue by selling $1.7 million in tickets in a week. Broadway previews begin today, February 18, 2017, ahead of an opening night on March 12, 2017. There is currently no closing date scheduled, as the hope is to run for as long as possible, as is the case with most new musicals. The show is directed by Christopher Ashley, who has been with the show since its La Jolla run; Ashley is the artistic director of the La Jolla Playhouse. On Broadway, his directing credits include Leap of Faith, Memphis, Xanadu, All Shook Up, and many more. The La Jolla Playhouse is also enjoying a period of success with regards to Broadway transfers, as the regional theatre has also originated the upcoming Broadway productions of Indecent and Junk, and recent shows to make the leap include Doctor Zhivago, Side Show, Hands on a Hardbody, and Chaplin.
A Cast of Broadway Newcomers and Regulars Come Together
The majority of the Broadway cast has been with the show since La Jolla. The role of Kevin is played by Chad Kimball, whose previous Broadway credits include Memphis, Lennon, and Good Vibrations. The role of Annette and Beverley is played by Jenn Colella, who has recently appeared in Dear Evan Hansen, If/Then, and Chaplin. Also, the role of Claude is played by Joel Hatch (Annie, Billy Elliot: The Musical), the role of Bob is played by Rodney Hicks (The Scottsboro Boys, Jesus Christ Superstar), and the role of Ali and Kevin is played by Caesar Samayoa (Sister Act, The Pee-wee Herman Show). All of those actors have been with the show throughout its regional run. Meanwhile, the role of Bonnie is played by Petrina Bromley, who is making her Broadway debut, and who joined the show in Toronto, and the role of Oz is played by Geno Carr, also making his Broadway debut, and he joined the show in Washington, D.C. Finally, the role of Janice is played by Kendra Kassebaum (Leap of Faith, Assassins), who joined the show in Washington, D.C. as well.
