When Should You Seek Professional Book Editing?
Often writers approach me with uncertainty. I think I'm ready . . . This seems like the time. They're not sure exactly what their manuscript needs. Should they just send it out to agents? Is it time to start checking out self-publishing venues? Or do they need professional book editing?
My post today tackles the last question. Most everyone who writes soon realizes the importance of editing. After all, for most writers, not a day goes by that they don't do some sort of fiddling with their manuscripts—even if it's only tweak to a title, a swift uprooting and resettling of chapter breaks, or, if nothing else, a change in fonts. It's not a big leap to move from self-editing to the idea of getting outside help. At this point, some might try getting feedback from their well-read friends, which often leads to advice that may feel good, but not be the "real love" that's needed.
But does that mean they need professional book editing?
Do you need professional book editing?
You have revised your manuscript on your own at least once.
There's no way your manuscript is ready to be seen by anyone until you have revised it yourself, at least once.
You can't keep your manuscript straight in your head.
Sometimes you get to a point with your manuscript when you've done so much rewriting and so much story evolution, that the details are foggy. You might have characters walking into the party with red curls bouncing and then flirting at the drinks table by flipping raven-colored locks. Or you might have worked hard on the amazing reveal that your protagonist's uncle didn't die in the car crash but is alive and well has in fact been orchestrating the corporate takeover from his Mogadishu stronghold. It took awhile for you to figure how it was all going to play out and you're left with a manuscript that still has traces of past ideas—the uncle is in Morocco, the uncle is an aunt, the uncle has an amnesia. You need an outside eye to get matters straight.
An agent gave you a bit of advice on how to improve your book and offered to take a second look if you revise.
A nice situation to be in, but also a delicate one. The agent sees potential, enough to give you some suggestions, but they don't have the time to go into detail. And you might need that detail to make sure you make improvements correctly. At this stage, you could probably benefit from a substantive edit, which would give you more targeted advice than the sort of general comments one finds in an editorial letter or polite note from an agent.
You have an agent, but it can take him or her months to get back to you about your work.
Agents have a lot on their plate and sometimes they are unable to give you the close reading you need. Working with their schedules can be hard. They're superbusy, and you feel guilty every time you check in with them. Hiring a professional book editor can give you more control over the timeframe and quality of the criticism you receive.
You like people to meet deadlines.
No matter how great a reader or editor the friends who offer to critique on your manuscript are, the only way to ensure that you'll get a response when you want it is by hiring someone. One might say, "You pay the cost to be the boss." If you hire a professional book editor, you'll be able to keep a tighter grip on your schedule than if you rely on free labor.
You are ready, eager and willing to make the changes necessary to improve your manuscript.
If you're sending your manuscript to a professional book editor, you will receive substantial commentary back that will necessitate major changes and a lot of work. If you feel invigorated and excited about working to take your manuscript to the next level, you can really make the most of a professional book editing.
In today's publishing world, more and more people are using freelance professional book editors, people unencumbered by the responsibilities of selling your book like agents and publishing house editors–whether to book chains, sales teams, or (in the case of agents) editors at publishing houses. This new breed of editor is taking on the work that the harried house editors and agents cannot do. See this incisive article by Marjorie Braman, which explains well how professional book editors currently fit into the publishing ecosystem and how their role may evolve.

The Tunisian Experience
The leader of the Ennahda Movement, hailing the adoption of a new constitution in January, explains why Islam and democracy are compatible.
By Rachid Ghannouchi
Ennahda leader Rachid Ghannouchi, Tunis, Feb. 23, 2011. Volkan Furuncu/AA
Democracy is a dream that can be fulfilled around the globe. Despite significant political regression throughout the Middle East in recent months, the dream can be realized in the Arab world, too. The Tunisian people have bravely defended their revolution and their democratic transition, standing against terrorists and those who plotted to bring about political chaos. Tunisians are enjoying freedom today.
The cost of encouraging coups and giving up on the Arab Spring is much greater than showing patience. Nations must find their own solutions to their internal crises and disputes, which are often caused by a lack of experience on the part of the political elite, and a need for more time to become accustomed to democratic practice after decades of despotism.
Moreover, the Tunisian experience has proved—to those doubting the intentions of Islamists—that Islam and democracy are compatible. The victims of decades of repression, marginalization, and exclusion are not carrying hatred or the desire for revenge in their hearts. Rather, they believe in an enlightened modernist civil project, as embodied in the new Tunisian constitution which achieved the widest possible consensus: on January 26, Tunisia's National Constituent Assembly adopted the constitution by a vote of 200 to 12, with four abstentions.
Despotic regimes deposed by revolution justified their repression of Islamists as a necessity in the war on obscurantists, for the protection of democracy in the face of theocracy, and of global security against terrorism and extremism. Such slogans were long used to justify violations of human rights, the killing of hundreds of people under torture, the imprisonment of tens of thousands, and the banning of all freedoms.
Tunisia has now demonstrated the false nature of those claims, and that the real dangers threatening democracy, security, and stability, are dictatorship, corruption, and the monopolization of power.
Today, Tunisia is saying to the world, to freedom-lovers everywhere, that there is no dichotomy between Islam and democracy, and that Islamists stand at the forefront of those defending the right to differences, cultural diversity, political pluralism, freedom of conscience, women's rights, and all values establishing a free, just, prosperous society.
The success of the Tunisian experience did not come as a surprise to those observing the Tunisian process from its early moments and particularly the path our Ennahda Party had chosen before the October 2011 election and afterwards. Once Ennahda won that election and gained a majority in the assembly, it was the first to call for national unity, to avoid the monopolization of power, and for co-existence and cooperation between secularists and Islamists. The troika coalition that included Ennahda and two secular parties was clear proof of our conviction that Tunisia can only be governed through consensus, and that transitions cannot be managed by the logic of majority versus minority.
Reconciliation is in fact inherent in Ennahda's vision since its foundation, as a movement that reconciles modernity with Islam, reconciles post-independence Tunisia with its identity and history, and reconciles Islam and democracy. Believing in the positive power of Islam as an inspiration for the values of freedom and justice, Ennahda aimed at liberating society from political despotism, economic exploitation, social injustice and cultural stagnation or dependence. Over four decades, this vision was faced with brutal repression from successive regimes.
Whether in government or in the assembly, Ennahda committed itself to the same consensual approach, putting the national interest above partisan interests, happily giving concessions in order to accelerate the writing of the constitution and protect social cohesion and national unity. Ultimately we made the greatest sacrifice: Ennahda withdrew from the government in order to end a political crisis. Following the assassination of assembly member Mohamed Brahmi, many opposition deputies withdrew from the assembly and demanded its dissolution. We believed that adopting the new constitution—in a consensual inclusive manner—would lead to a resolution of the crisis and the return of much-needed calm and stability. We had not lost a re-election bid; nor were we faced with a counterrevolution or a coup d'état. But we believed that the crisis threatened the revolution and the country as a whole.
Many had repeatedly insisted that Ennahda would never cede power, even if it were to lose the coming elections, and that democracy—for Islamists—only means reaching power, monopolizing it, and clinging to it. Such claims pained us, but at the same time encouraged us to prove to our partners, to our people, and to the world, that these were unfounded fears in Tunisia. Ennahda Party is a mature political party that is profoundly committed to democracy, which has learned from the errors of other governing parties, secularist and Islamist, around the world.
Protecting the Revolution
Tunisia's new constitution is a source of immense pride for all Tunisians. It enshrines the demands of the revolution: freedom, dignity and justice. It clearly establishes equality between all citizens without any discrimination, guarantees political, social, economic and cultural rights, and promotes gender equality. It sets the foundation for a civil state, a balanced democratic political system, independent neutral state institutions and an independent judiciary.
Today, no one can doubt Ennahda's democratic conviction, our political realism, or our civil commitments. No one can claim that Ennahda was forced out of power, or withdrew from government as a tactical maneuver.
First, our departure from government was part of a complete process in which we were committed to national consensus, both in governance and the writing of the new constitution. Ennahda's vision was clear, namely that the aim of being in power in the second transitional phase was the adoption of the constitution and leading the country to the second elections, both of which required broad consensus and a climate of national unity. We rejected the notion that the Tunisian constitution be the constitution of a majority imposed on a minority. We appreciated the demands of the opposition that elections be held under an independent government.
We dealt with all political crises with the same logic. Following the assassination of the martyr Chokri Belaïd of the Democratic Patriots' Movement in February 2013, we accepted the "neutralization" of key ministries; Ennahda conceded a number of other ministries to be taken over by technocrats. We insisted on preserving the constituent assembly in order for it to continue its work on the constitution, and we decided not to remain in power for the sake of power.
Second, we rejected ideological polarization and resorting to populist appeals to the street for resolving political differences—even though we believed that our street was bigger. We refused to divide Tunisians, and as leader of Ennahda, I was keen to open communication channels with opposition leaders and prevent a rupture. I signed the Quartet road map because we were fully aware that the logic of conflict and confrontation will not resolve problems. We understood that Ennahda, as the largest party in the country, is required to give the greater concessions to protect the revolution and the democratic transition process.
Third, Ennahda's departure from the government followed the success of the national dialogue, and was not the result of pressure or failure to address the crisis. We agreed to implement the road map in the framework of concurrence of the three processes of the road map; that is, the resignation of Ali Laarayedh's government following agreement on a new prime minister, the adoption of the constitution, and the election of members of the election commission. The day of the adoption of the constitution was a historic moment and cause for national celebration. Laarayedh's resignation in January 2014 was a lesson in the peaceful alternation of power and confirmation of Islamist respect for democratic rules.
Tunisians went to the polls in October 2011 to elect a constituent assembly whose principal task was writing a new constitution, a historic task for which the people hold us accountable. They would hold us accountable for the completion of the constitution, as well as its content: was it a constitution setting the foundations for a modern democratic state that respects the identity of the Tunisian people, or a constitution imposing the majority's vision on the minority?
To the political right of Ennahda, many pushed to make the constitution more conservative; and to the left of moderate secular forces, radical secularists pushed for a constitution that contradicts the Tunisian people's identity. The result, however, was the victory of the middle, which we consider to be the fruit of an important, but difficult, co-existence between Islamists and secularists in power.
The victory of the middle path is what will make the constitution the link that unites all Tunisians and will protect our country from being pushed to the right or the left, which is what Tunisia needs over the coming decades.
Thus, the Tunisian constitution is based on a vision focused on Tunisia's future, because we do not want a text that establishes monopolization and exclusion, and the culture of revenge and retribution by putting in place a political system tilted in favor of one side at the expense of another. Today's victor is tomorrow's loser, and such is the problem of short-sighted politics. We wanted a constitution for all Tunisians where their fundamental freedoms and rights are protected on the basis of equality and citizenship.
Our constitution represents the dream of the great reformers of the nineteenth century like Khaireddine Al-Tounsi, Muhammad Abduh and Abdelaziz El-Thaalibi, who tried to combine the values of Islam and the values of modernity, who believed that Islam and the universal values and Islam and democracy are compatible.
These are the characteristics of the Tunisian experience, which can be summarized in two words: national consensus. This phrase gave Tunisia the constitution of the revolution, took the country out of a stifling crisis, and is leading it, God willing, towards elections later this year. Consensus means that everyone is a winner; there are no losers.
We have achieved this national consensus with the help of four civil society organizations that presented an initiative for national dialogue when politicians failed to find agreement. During six long months of the political crisis, twenty-two different parties were involved in the national dialogue where everyone contributed ideas and made concessions to find a way out of the crisis. The businessmen's association united with the labor union, in an unprecedented and unusual way, in order to lead the national consensus. And I met the president of the Nidaa Tounes party, Beji Caid Essebsi, despite the profound differences between our two parties; the Ennahda assembly bloc and other blocs overcame their differences which could have delayed completion of work on the constitution.
All this means that consensus is possible. It is the only solution for overcoming disputes and establishing a stable democracy that benefits from one of Tunisia's most important characteristics: the neutrality of the military institution and its refusal to play any political role that contravenes its national duty.
Hope of the Arab Spring
Consensus has triumphed in Tunisia, and I believe that the political elite is committed, to a great extent, to supporting the transitional government of Mehdi Ben Jemaa, which enjoys the backing of the Tunisian people. However, the path ahead is still long, and forces wishing to undermine the revolution and the democratic transition in our country have not despaired of trying to derail the process.
Our country is united in the face of terrorism, and the political elite is conscious, to a great extent, that there is no justification for a return to the state of tension and confrontation. All sides are aware of the importance of contributing to support the atmosphere of cooperation and calm in order to facilitate holding elections in the best possible conditions.
Of course, the economic situation is very important for ensuring stability in the country, and we hope that the national consensus achieved in Tunisia will encourage Tunisia's friends around the world to support the government economically and financially, and encourage international institutions and businesspeople to support our new democracy—perhaps, at the moment, the only bright flame of the Arab Spring.
Tunisia has turned a difficult page in its political history, praise be to God. It has been placed on the path of democracy, and has given the world the gift of the first constitution of the Arab Spring revolutions, marking the end of the era of "the Arab exception" in the field of democracy. Arabs and Muslims are able to build free democratic systems, practice peaceful alternation of power, and write constitutions that guarantee freedom of conscience and freedom of difference, women's rights, the rights of minorities, protection of the environment, sustainable development, and justice.
We believe that this spirit of national consensus is still needed after the next elections. We believe that the main trends and parties in the country should contribute to the shaping of the Tunisia of tomorrow. Tunisia's ship should set sail with all its people aboard.
We believe that Ennahda has a very good chance in the next elections. However, we also believe that the country cannot be ruled by one party or one trend only. During transitional periods, a 51 percent majority is not enough to have a stable government and a stable democracy. We believe that the country will need a coalition government that brings together the main parties in the country in order to achieve stability and strengthen democracy and its institutions.
That is the Tunisian model, a lesson from a country that is small in its geographic size, modest in its natural resources, but great in its people enamored with freedom, democracy, and peace.

Organizations have long struggled with legacy data science tools that are siloed and expensive to maintain.
In 2018, IBM commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct a total economic impact (TEI) study to examine the value of an investment in IBM Watson Studio and Watson Knowledge Catalog for organizations looking to overcome those struggles. Forrester interviewed and surveyed several IBM Watson Studio and Watson Knowledge Catalog customers about the benefits, costs, risks and flexibility they experienced using the IBM platform.
Forrester interviewed an insurance company with roughly 2,500 employees. The organization had been using Watson Studio for one year and Knowledge Catalog for six months. Forrester also surveyed 32 IT decision makers based in the United States at organizations with more than 1,000 employees.
Prior to investing in IBM Watson Studio and Watson Knowledge Catalog, these organizations paid costly external consultants to bridge functionality gaps while data scientists spent most of their time discovering, accessing and preparing data instead of building predictive models. Survey respondents said that the single biggest challenge they faced prior to their IBM investment was that "there were valuable insights in existing data, but it was too difficult for data scientists to find or access that data". To gain a competitive advantage, the organizations needed to streamline processes to make data more accessible, provide tools to support data-scientist productivity and provide a platform that encourages collaboration.
As a result of the investment, these organizations dramatically increased the productivity of their data scientists, enabling them to analyze more data and create more models to accelerate positive business outcomes. Data scientists add $2.5 million in incremental value, in revenue or cost savings, to major data science projects, 40 percent of which is attributed to IBM. On average, the organizations can avoid four data scientist hires by increasing the productivity of data scientists, a savings of $1.2 million over three years. The organizations also reduce administrator overhead by replacing existing tools, and they reduce the risks of penalties and fines from noncompliance, for a cost savings total of over $1.6 million over three years. The total benefits over three years is almost $6 million.
To achieve these benefits, the organizations paid for the use of Watson Studio and Watson Knowledge Catalog. The organizations also spent two months implementing the solution and building initial models with the help of IBM professional services. This implementation process included three days of formal and on-the-job training for new users. The total costs over three years is a little more than $1 million.
As a part of its analysis, Forrester also identified various risks that could inhibit the interviewed organizations' abilities to accurately quantify the benefits and costs associated with IBM Watson Studio and Watson Knowledge Catalog. These risks include variances in the use of previous data analytics tools, the adoption of the platform, the number of major data science projects undertaken each year and the size of the data science teams. Forrester factored these risks into the business benefits and costs to create a more accurate representation of the business impact of Watson Studio and Watson Knowledge Catalog.

Ryo Minemizu shows a world most people don't even know exists: the world of microscopic plankton.
His photos raise awareness about the tiny creatures that play an important role in the food chain.
His photos have garnered so much attention that he now has a book out, which is called "Jewels In the Night Sea."
When people think of plankton, they usually envision nondescript little bits floating in the ocean. But thanks to photographer Ryo Minemizu, we can get a glimpse of their otherworldly beauty.
His photos have garnered so much attention that his series, "The Secret World of Plankton," won him the 2017 Nikkei National Geographic Photo Prize. He also has a book out, called "Jewels In the Night Sea."
Minemizu recently concluded an exhibition in Japan, which featured 40 of his photographs. Keep scrolling to see some of his most mesmerizing pieces.
Minemizu has been a photographer since 1990.
He started diving around the ame time he got interested in photography.
The idea for photographing plankton came to him on a dive. He told INSIDER that he was "immediately drawn to the rich marine life around [him], and plankton in particular."
"I was inspired by what I saw and decided to document it with my camera," he said.
"I wanted to bring more attention to the sea's tiniest creatures because they are so vital to our Earth despite their small size," he said.
"Plankton are an important source of food for larger animals. Fish and whales would not be able to survive without them. They are also the most abundant life form on Earth, and play a critical role in the marine food chain," Minemizu explained.
Minemizu is a self-taught photographer, and started before digital photography existed.

"I made a lot of mistakes in the early years and learned through trial and error," he said.
Working with a digital camera made his work easier.
Megalopa larva of Eplumula phalangium.
"I had more control over the changing environment in the sea and I could also check my work to make sure I got what I needed before I left a location. Following the direction of the wind and tide, the ebb and flow, are key to shooting plankton," he shared.
Still, it took Minemizu about two years to perfect photographing plankton underwater.
"It's still trial and error," he said.
Timing is a big challenge: "I often have only seconds or minutes to photograph my subjects."

"When I chase the plankton I have to be careful not to go too quickly from deeper water to the surface as there is the risk of decompression sickness," he said.
He still spends a lot of time in the water to capture his photos, regularly going on five-hour dives during the day, and two-hour dives at night, multiple days in a row.
"As long as I am diving at a depth of 10 meters (33 feet), I can be in the water longer," he explained.
"There are so many plankton in the ocean that have yet to be discovered and documented," he said.

But the results of his hard work speak for themselves: who knew that plankton was so beautiful?
He recently wrapped up an exhibition in Japan called "Jewels In the Night Sea," featuring 40 of his photographs.
"Through my work, I also wish to raise awareness of the pressing issue that our oceans and seas are becoming increasingly polluted with plastics," he said.
"Planktons normally use jellyfish for floating like boats. But now I often see plankton floating on pieces of plastic. Plastic pollution is killing plankton," he explained.
Either way, his photos really put plankton in a whole new light.

Yale-NUS College is a special place, which provides a well-rounded liberal arts education, both in and out of the classroom. Conceived with the fundamental focus of fostering students to be authors of their own experience, the College actively welcomes ideas proposed by students who are keen to further develop their intellectual curiosity beyond the official curriculum. The College has grown to become a lively space teeming with student-generated ideas, where some support academic exploration while others advocate practice-based learning that transcends beyond the College to the wider community. Testament to this, a new co-curricular course on sign language was recently initiated and implemented by three students who had both personal interests and a common desire to introduce fellow students to the deaf culture and community in Singapore.
"I have always wanted to learn sign language because I am interested to learn more about the deaf community and inclusion from a disability perspective. It challenged my preconceptions about what it means to communicate as well as the idea that deafness should be viewed as a disability when it really is just a different form of ability. I suggested organising a sign language class on campus to some friends and two of them – Anthea Chua and Khwa Zhong Xuan (both Class of 2020) – took the initiative and worked with the Dean of Students office to make it happen", explained Daryl Yang (Class of 2018), who enrolled in the class.
The sign language classes were facilitated by teachers from The Singapore Association for the Deaf (SADeaf). As part of the Level One Singapore Sign Language Programme offered by them, students can expect to develop capabilities in non-verbal, visual-gestural communication, Singapore Sign Language (SgSL) vocabulary and structure as well as gain greater awareness of deaf Culture. To reinforce the learning experience, classes are taught using a "no-voice" teaching method.
"Teaching sign language can be a huge challenge, especially when the students are used to verbal communication. With the "no-voice" teaching method, I have to constantly remind the learners to use their hands, body and facial expression to communicate albeit been awkward initially", clarified Ms Yam Lim, the facilitator from SADeaf.
For Ms Lim, her decision to teach sign language stemmed from the inspiration she got from her teachers during her schooling years and more than anything, her urge to build awareness about this unique language and the deaf culture. With stereotypes about deafness still persisting in mainstream society, she desired for Singaporeans to be more socially aware of the deaf and to maintain a right attitude towards the community.
In fact, almost all the participants in the sign language class at the College are new learners. "Through these classes, what intrigued me the most was that you have different 'dialects' of sign language. The sign language used in Singapore differs from that of others used elsewhere in the world. In addition, I gained a lot of 'insider information' as to how local gestures are formulated. For example, the gesture for Marina Bay Sands is formed with three fingers vertical and a finger horizontal atop- a direct parallel to its physical image", remarked Goh Wan Ling (Class of 2021), a student in the class.
Echoing this, Daryl commented, "SgSL is a very young language and is constantly evolving. This means that there often are words for which we need to think creatively to express through what is called Visual-Gesture Communication (VGC), which we learnt during our course as well".
Indeed, sign language is a general term ascribed to a group of languages that are manually produced and visually understood. However, it is not a universal language for every state or community with deaf persons will develop their own unique sign language. The Singapore Sign Language (SgSL) is the amalgamation of Shanghainese Sign Language (SSL), American Sign Language (ASL), Signing Exact English (SEE) and locally developed signs.
Beyond the classroom, students learnt to apply their sign language skills in their daily lives. "What I found truly fascinating is that at most times our instructor could clearly express herself and teach us without talking or writing. Being inspired, I now try to sign sentences every other day. Whether it's talking to friends or the cashier, I try to sign sentences after the conversation has ended", said Deeptha Sharon Samuels (Class of 2021), another participant who took the class.

This new piece says it all – I visited (and loved) Dungeness two years ago, but I've only just got round to doing this souvenir of that marvellous, strange, atmospheric place.
Dungeness was done for my recent exhibition at Pelham House in Lewes – as part of the town's Open Studio scheme, Artwave – and our two-person show continued into October. It featured work made with reclaimed materials and/or on themes related to global warming and the environment.
Since we moved just over a year ago I have lurched from one deadline to the next without finding enough time to make new work or indeed to research new exhibition possibilities. So no formal Christmas Open House this year, just an attempt to catch up with myself: 'reculer pour mieux sauter', as the French say!

A story that begins in the 18th century.
The industrial plants of a bygone era, the wind blowing over the Calabrian fields and gently moving the plants of Glycyrrhiza. A distinctive flavour that starts in Calabria and lands at the International Exhibition of Paris and continues to travel the world to these days.
Nature Med history and the history of PDO Calabrian liquorice starts back in time. It is 1886 when the Zagarese family builds a production line for the transformation of the liquorice root. They farm the Rigulizia Cordara on their lands and the new liquorice products are initially reserved to friends and family. This is only the beginning of a successful story. The first rudimentary production line becomes an established industry across Europe and the Zagarese's products leave Calabria to win several prizes, both in Italy and abroad. They win the gold medal of Antwerp and Niece in 1894 and the Grand Prix at the International Exhibition of Paris in 1900.
After WW2, not much is left of the liquorice industry. Only few conci (small plants dedicated to the liquorice production) survived the war and even they progressively fell into disuse. There are shortages of liquorice root, once the flagship of Calabrian industry; citrus fruit cultivation is now generally preferred to liquorice farming and the root is at risk of disappearing.
Despite the difficulties in sourcing the root, two companies keep the Calabrian liquorice industry alive. One is Zagarese's, which is bought by Nature Med at the end of the 1990s. Some 100 years after the creation of the first Zagarese production plant, in 1996 the Massarotto family acquire Zagarese and found Nature Med. With passion and determination, the Massarottos preserve the Zagarese's heritage and launch Nature Med into a new era. Thanks to the new management the brand quickly becomes a reference for production and marketing in the liquorice world.
Nature Med philosophy is to work alongside local producers with the primary objective of preserving the local supply chain. Nature Med achieved this objective by converting land to liquorice root farming, promoting and expanding the liquorice culture and cultivation in Calabria. But most importantly, Nature Med has significantly contributed to the establishment of the Liquorice Supply Chain (FIliera della Liquirizia), now officially recognised by the Calabrian Government (Regione Calabria) and a stepping stone towards PDO certification. It is an important achievement, which aims at restoring the prestige of the liquorice sector. It also introduces stricter controls on the traceability of the roots being processed, tackling, and hopefully completely eliminating, the ever-increasing risk of Calabrian industries using foreign liquorice roots.
Nature Med is the leader, in Italy and the rest of the world, of the real organic, PDO, Calabrian liquorice.

Family Values @ Work
Giving Thanks for Family
Thanksgiving traditionally marks the beginning of the holiday season. Many of us are re-examining the origins of this particular day and learning the truth about the genocide against indigenous people. We are fashioning new rituals as we take advantage of the break from work and school to be with our loved ones.
The week of Thanksgiving also denotes National Family Week, seven days of observance that focus on a recommitment to family and community. This year, however, millions are grappling with the loss of a loved one due to the pandemic. We'll be replacing gatherings around the communal table with video and phone calls. We ache to hug family members we haven't seen in months, touch a face, hold someone's new baby, see our parents delight in our kids. But we're pushing on with the hope that soon we'll be back to entertaining and bonding in person.
For many of us, this separation will be temporary. But what about the millions of people in the U.S who always have to worry whether they can be there for their loved ones in the best and worst of times — when we welcome a new child, struggle with a serious illness, need to care for an ill loved one, or to ease the passage of someone who is dying?
The good news is that more than 55 million Americans have been positively impacted by paid sick days and family leave wins. Our movement has won paid sick days in 53 locations, and paid family and medical leave in 10. And federal coronavirus relief legislation — the Families First Coronavirus Relief Act (FFCRA) and CARES Act — afforded many families paid time to care during the current pandemic. Thanks to smart public policy, these families no longer have to choose between working or taking time to heal. They can have a life and a livelihood, as all of us deserve.
The better news is that we can win paid time to care on a national level as well. The current fight begins with extending and expanding the protections in the FFCRA and CARES acts, set to expire at the end of the year. Then we continue the drum beat for paid leave in every community, working with existing champions and developing new ones in the fight for inclusive, effective federal paid sick days and paid leave laws and quality, affordable child care.
This year we are acutely aware that so many of us cannot be with those we consider family. But we can rally together from wherever we are, and commit to fighting to make sure all of us can be there for those we love.
Celebrate your loved ones by fighting with us for the policies that keep us safe and healthy together.
27 state coalitions working to win for Paid Sick Days, Paid Leave and other policies that value families at work in your city, county and state, then nation.

What is the Commemoration Fund?
The Commemoration Fund is the Government of Canada's response to the National Inquiry on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls Interim Report recommendation for the federal government to establish a Commemoration Fund.
The purpose of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls Commemoration Fund is to support Indigenous organizations to work with families, survivors and/or communities to develop and implement commemoration initiatives to honour the lives and legacies of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls and LGBTQ2S individuals.
What are the objectives of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls Commemoration Fund call for proposals?
Indigenous governments, including band councils, tribal councils and self-government entities, and their agencies, and hamlets1.
An Indigenous organization is defined as an incorporated organization that represents First Nations, Inuit and/or Métis interests and is controlled by members of the population it serves.
For more information on who can apply under this call for proposals, consult the Applicant Guide.
All projects must end by March 31, 2021. Funded projects may be able to start as early as July 2019.
Legacy items that leave a legacy or educate people about missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls and LGBTQ2S individuals.
For more information on what types of activities are eligible under this call for proposals, consult the Applicant Guide.
What do communities involved in the project have to provide?
To indicate that families, survivors and/or communities were involved in the development of the application, or are supportive of the application, each of the communities involved in the project and listed in the application need to provide a letter of support in regards to the project.
If letters of support are missing, the application will be considered incomplete.
Applications will be reviewed in terms of both eligibility and assessment criteria. Once all applications have been assessed, an Indigenous external review committee will review applications. This committee will be comprised of Indigenous women nominated by the Department, provincial and territorial governments, the Indigenous Women's Circle, families and survivors.
The Indigenous external review committee will provide advice on which projects should be recommended for consideration by the Minister for Women and Gender Equality.
For more information on the eligibility and assessment criteria for this call for proposals, consult the Applicant Guide.
Who will comprise the Indigenous external review committee?
The Department for Women and Gender Equality is seeking approximately 15 members for the Indigenous external review committee. The Department seeks a broad representation for membership, including First Nations, Inuit and Métis individuals from across the country.
The Indigenous external review committee is an opportunity for those affected, including survivors, family members, artists, and grassroots advocates, to be actively involved in support of the Commemoration Fund. Ideally, members will have roots and connections in their communities, an understanding of the national tragedy of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls and experience with project funding.
If you wish to serve as part of the Indigenous external review committee, or wish to nominate someone, please contact the Department's office in your region.
When will organizations be informed of the decision made regarding applications?
The Department anticipates communicating decisions made regarding applications starting in July 2019.
How many projects does the Department plan on funding?
The number of funded projects will depend on the number, assessment, and scope of applications received.
Are there other funding opportunities at the Department for Women and Gender Equality?
Organizations are invited to periodically check for funding opportunities and to follow the Department on social media: Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn.

Prisoners who are set to be released within the time frame of the term of the elected body should be able to vote. The severity of the crime could also be taken into consideration if needed however I think this should be a blanket rule. If prisoners are to be effected by the policies of the government at the time due to their policies on prisons and rehabilitation etc. then they should be able to vote on this.
This is important because it takes into consideration both the feelings of people concerned about long-serving prisoners being able to vote throughout their sentence. But it also allows for prisoners who are up for release to be involved in the political process and hopefully help them in rehabilitation. It may be best to see if prisoner voting has improved the prospects of successful rehabilitation in other countries too.
Thanks very much for your comments @laura1 - do you think any special considerations should apply to young offenders in custody if the voting age is lowered to 16 and 17 years olds?

It creates a division in his mind between the woman he knows to be his natural mother and the woman with whom he has real hands-on relationship: the woman who bathes him and takes him to the park, and with whom he feels completely at one.
As a result, he grows up with the idea that although he will one day go through all the social and sexual formalities of marriage, he will have at the back of his mind the notion of this other woman, who not only knows, but caters for, all his needs.
And yet apparently, according to Dr. Friedman, all of this can be avoided merely by not hiring a nanny until after the baby's first year.
Is this all too Freudian to believe? Or, in hiring a nanny, have mothers everywhere ruined their daughters-in-law's lives before even meeting them?


All throughout history, there are a number of people that have been able to make very significant contributions to different communities and because of that, they are considered to be some of the most important heroes. A number of the people were able to transform the world through business while others through politics and leadership but in addition, there are others who are human rights activists. One of the biggest civil rights activists in the world that was able to create history was known as James Meredith and he was an African-American. James Meredith was the first person who was African-American that was able to attend the University of Mississippi and this was in the year 1962. The of birth of James Meredith was 1933 and after that, he was able to grow with other siblings on a farm land. After a number of years of his childhood, he was later able to join a military high school for his high school time. After this, it is also recorded that the man was able to attend a college that was all black. After being able to get his law degree from the University, James Meredith was involved in politics and also, civil rights.
After today, James Meredith is recorded to continue with civil rights activist activities and he stays in the Jackson Mississippi region. By living on a farm land together with your family, James Meredith had the chance to be insulated from racism which is a major problem this time. The first encounter of racism that James Meredith got was when he was riding on a train that was coming from Chicago. The incident involved him being told to move to the back of the train when they reached Memphis Tennessee. At the back of the train were many black people and because of that, they had to go standing up to their destination. The life changing experience for James Meredith was this moment in the train and that's why, he dedicated his life to civil rights activities especially because of the black people to ensure that they are treated fairly, learn more now.
Before being able to successfully go into studying in the University of Mississippi, James Meredith had a revoked admission later because the registrar of the University of Mississippi realize that he was an African-American. While protecting this decision, James Meredith had the case move up to the Supreme Court and this is when finally, he was able to get the ruling in his favor. In addition to his personal life, the commitment to the cause that you took and that is civil rights and politics has always been consistent all throughout the years.
