Home/Social Media, News and Political Information during the US Election: Was Polarizing Content Concentrated in Swing States?
US voters shared large volumes of polarizing political news and information in the form of links to content from Russian, WikiLeaks and junk news sources. Was this low quality political information distributed evenly around the country, or concentrated in swing states and particular parts of the country? In this data memo we apply a tested dictionary of sources about political news and information being shared over Twitter over a ten day period around the 2016 Presidential Election. Using self-reported location information, we place a third of users by state and create a simple index for the distribution of polarizing content around the country. We find that (1) nationally, Twitter users got more misinformation, polarizing and conspiratorial content than professionally produced news. (2) Users in some states, however, shared more polarizing political news and information than users in other states. (3) Average levels of misinformation were higher in swing states than in uncontested states, even when weighted for the relative size of the user population in each state. We conclude with some observations about the impact of strategically disseminated polarizing information on public life.

Care Resource receives new funding for more healthcare
A donation of over $200,000 from the Health Foundation of South Florida will allow Care Resource to continue their mission of giving better healthcare to underserved communities
In a time so full of doubt and pain, Care Resource a nonprofit health center, that brings positivity into underserved communities in Miami-Dade County has been awarded $246,280 by the Health Foundation of South Florida.
The year 2020 has been one known for chaos, tragedy, and struggle worldwide. This is due to the COVID-19 pandemic taking thousands of lives, financially destroying thousands more, and disproportionately affecting the lives in our communities.
Considering all these occurrences Care Resource wants to offer a beacon of hope to the community now that they can receive more funds to be able to fund the medical help, they bring to many.
Care Resource maintains their ability to further provide care for those most in need here in South Florida. The Health Foundation of South Florida has provided the funds to purchase equipment for their new expansion in Midtown. It shows community and the coming together of resources that in turn makes investing in the future possible.
Care Resource will use this funding to purchase medical and pediatric equipment for the recently renovated expansion of the Midtown Miami Health Center and Administrative Headquarters. The investment will also allow for an enhancement to primary care and other services to underinsured and uninsured patients in Miami.
During a time where there are so many barriers between struggling communities, Care Resource now can begin to break down those barriers within the health care industry.
The funding from the HFSF will allow for an additional 29 rooms to be equipped with medical equipment, including 14 additional medical exam rooms and 2 pediatric exam rooms. These renovations will strengthen Care Resource's ability to meet the needs of the most vulnerable populations in South Florida. Preventative and social services will also be added.
The newly renovated health center is expected to open in mid-2021. It will be a beautiful introduction from a devastating year to one that will unite the community that is currently struggling.

Echo Eternal – Holocaust Memorial Day
Echo Eternal is a commemorative arts, media and civic engagement project delivered in schools for children of all ages, inspired by the testimony of British survivors of the Holocaust. The testimony was captured by the UK Holocaust Memorial Foundation – UKHMF. The project is underpinned by CORE Education Trust's track record in bringing together diverse communities in a collaborative context, in this case with a common focus of Holocaust memorial and genocide awareness. This focus is supported by the creation of collaborative civic alliances between schools with different social and cultural characteristics.
The Echo Eternal pilot commenced in Birmingham on Holocaust Memorial Day 2018 and is currently a live project in 12 schools- 6 CORE Education Schools and 6 Partner Schools. The project will run for a further 2 calendar years across the West Midlands- 2019 and 2020 – continuing in the 6 CORE Schools and introducing another 12 new schools (6 each year) before being launched in 6 London Schools in 2021 ahead of the new national memorial being built in the gardens of parliament in 2022.
The project is delivered through 4 strands: Artistic; Education; Media; Civic Engagement.
Our students have had the honor of being involved in this memorial project and these students will be curating the Holocaust Memorial event which is currently at Birmingham Library on Thursday 31st January.
As a school we are taking part in a concert entitled "Echo Eternal: Horizons" on Monday 28th January at Birmingham Town Hall. This concert revisits the testimonies of different survivors and creates artistic expressions that accompany these accounts. A number of our students are taking part in a cross trust choir that are performing live on the evening. Information and tickets click here: https://www.thsh.co.uk/event/echo-eternal-horizons

The 8 Best Mixes of June 2019
Graphic by Simon Abranowicz
by Philip Sherburne
Every month, Philip Sherburne listens to a whole lot of mixes so that you only have to listen to the very best ones. In this edition, IDM heroes Autechre offer up some popping-and-locking juvenilia, Hot Chip soundtrack your next backyard barbecue, and New York's Doctor Jeep investigates what happens when he plays old drum'n'bass vinyl at 33 rpm instead of 45.
object blue – Mixmag Impact
object blue was a producer and live performer before she became a DJ, and this new set for Mixmag's Impact series shares many qualities with her original productions: It's full of shuddering, overdriven rhythms, eerie tendrils of melody, and moments of head-twisting whiplash. Born in Japan, raised in Beijing, and having immersed herself in electronic music during her studies in London, object blue has fashioned a sound that includes concussive club energies, rolling breakbeats, and full-throttle techno. She knows when to lean back, too. The result is a set that comes in waves, surging and then offering welcome moments of respite.
Hot Chip – Bleep Mix 65
You know what summer could always use more of? House music. Specifically: sweet, melodic, disco-kissed house music. That's just what Hot Chip deliver in spades in this light, breezy mix for Bleep. A touch of Ethiopian keys lends an early hint of worldly psychedelia; Hot Chip's remix of Lizzo's "Juice" conjures memories of Basement Jaxx at their most boisterous; Paul Woolford's remix of the band's "Hungry Child" supplies the requisite piano-house uplift. The closing stretch of edits by Hot Chip's Felix Martin is particularly lovely, folding in songs by Ghanian disco musician Kiki Gyan, Malian Afro-pop duo Amadou & Mariam, Italo titan Giorgio Moroder, and Irish producer Phil Kieran's Le Carousel alias. Keep this one handy for pool parties.
Autechre – Warp Tapes 89-93
Long before they became dance music's answer to Karlheinz Stockhausen, Autechre's Sean Booth and Rob Brown were a couple of Manchester b-boys obsessed with electro and acid house. With the exception of their 1991 album Lego Feet, which few people heard until its reissue in 2011, very little of their earliest material has seen the light of day, but they recently revisited their roots in a pair of hour-long sets for NTS Radio. Full of shuddering drum machines, agitated bleeps, and industrial-grade clang, it betrays little of the mournful sensibility that would distinguish their later albums. Still, even given the tapes' relatively lo-fi qualities, these seamlessly mixed tracks show a snapshot of a sensibility that was already fully formed—a rough, rugged blend of contorted rhythms and sandblasted textures. Stream the sets on NTS or grab the gigabyte-plus files from the download link at the bottom of Autechre's Bleep store.
Nazira – Fresh Kicks 108
There's a moment about two-thirds of the way through Nazira's set for DJ Mag's Fresh Kicks series where a bright synth melody suddenly enters the mix. The effect is dazzling, as though the sun has suddenly broken through an overcast sky. That's not to say the set has been dull until that point, though. Quite the opposite: The Kazakh DJ's blend of bass music, acid, and lo-fi techno is electrifying in its own grim way. But holding back that sunny, color-soaked tune (Konx-om-pax's "Missing Something") only increases its potency, and Nazira extends that a-ha moment for the rest of the set, opening the floodgates to a succession of ecstatic chords and lush textures. It's a master class in pacing.
Dee Diggs – FACT mix 710
Brooklyn DJ Dee Diggs' mix is a celebration not just of house music's black and queer roots but, just as importantly, its black, queer, and feminist present. Temporally and geographically, she covers lots of ground, taking in pioneers like Colonel Abrams and DJ Deeon, global star Peggy Gou, and rising talents like Portugal's Violet and Philadelphia's SCRAAATCH. The set is just as diverse stylistically, taking in acid, deep house, piano house, breakbeats, diva refrains, and more. For all that range, it moves with real purpose, cutting a clear arc that feels powered, even in its darkest moments, by pure joy.
DJ Marcelle – RA.679
DJ Marcelle's sets are exercises in radical connectivity. The Amsterdam DJ has been involved in music since 1977, giving her some of the deepest crates of any current DJ. Venturing far beyond conventional dance music, she draws heavily on industrial and post-punk, as well as contemporary leftfield bass music; she mixes on three turntables, plus cassette, CD player, and reel-to-reel with multiple sound sources in play at any given time. Here, drum-machine patterns cascade through delay pedals; grooves slide between dubby clang and clubby punch; and all manner of vocal samples and sound effects are interwoven throughout. It's a kind of controlled chaos, and a scintillating display of sleight-of-hand.
DJ Richard – Knekelhuius – IFM #49
Europe is currently experiencing a brutal heatwave, with temperatures in Berlin, for one, nearing 100 degrees. Whenever DJ Richard—a former Berlin resident now based in Philadelphia—recorded this mix, it certainly captures the way the continent feels this week: muggy, oppressive, suffocating. The White Material co-founder has always laced his productions with a fair amount of industrial drone, but in this set for Amsterdam's Knekelhuis radio, he really outdoes himself, not so much mixing as smearing together a queasy hour of turgid beats, tattered synths, and apocalyptic ambient. Maybe that doesn't sound terribly inviting, but for gluttons for punishment, the unrelenting bleakness of this set is truly something to savor.
Doctor Jeep – Slow DnB Vinyl Mix
Remember the "paulstretching" craze a few years back? It consisted of pop songs—by No Doubt, Justin Bieber, a-Ha—slowed by 800% until they sounded more like Sigur Rós (and also all sounded pretty much alike). Well, this is more interesting. The New York DJ Doctor Jeep (Andre Lira) dusted off a bunch of old drum'n'bass 12''s, flipped the tempo knob from 45 to 33, and made a mix. The results are woozy and strangely hypnotic, with the sound thickened and the spaces between syncopated beats turned gelatinous. He leans towards records that typified so-called atmospheric or liquid strains of the genre, which gives him lots of keyboards, voice, and even harp to get gloopy with. Still, despite the slow pace, the music retains its edge. This isn't trip-hop; it scans as something far stranger.

A few weeks ago, I visited my mom.
While I was attempting to have a quiet moment, my restless 7-year-old son was filled with a million questions. I should have expected that. Cemeteries tend to have that affect on little boys.
One of the few heartbreaks in Beau's young life has been losing his grandmother before he ever really got a chance to know her. When she died back in 2013, she was at the end of a long and painful battle with COPD and she really did not have the strength to be the kind of grandmother she wanted to be. In 1991 when her first grandchild was born, my daughter Christine, it was much different. Mom was able to be quite a blessing for her for many years.
With Beau's maternal grandmother, who we affectionately call MeMa, the little guy (and his cousin Virginia) hit the jackpot. She is all kinds of fun and all kinds of cool, and he loves her to pieces. And with her, he is truly blessed.
But of course, that is a family tradition. Beau's own mom sets the gold standard. Her patience, warmth, intuition and understanding are simply amazing to see in action. I love to watch her help him with his homework, every bit the teacher, while every bit his mom. It is one of my favorite parts of the day. Simply put, the Good Lord put her on the planet to raise this boy. I know for a fact that she is appreciated for the significant role she has played in the lives of her many English students over her years as a high school teacher, but Bobbie's place in the universe as Beau's most important teacher is pure destiny.
Destiny and fate have played very significant roles in my life as a parent, and Beau's very existence is a medical miracle. His mom tackled the in-vitro fertilization process like a STAR student preparing for the SAT. She read, studied and digested hundreds of thousands of words published on the topic, some written by experts in the field, others, by hopeful moms-to-be who had been part of the process.
In 2008 the science was complicated and expensive, but eventually and inevitably, it was no match for Beau's mom. In March of 2009 our son was born and the rest, as they say, is history.
So suffice to say, I have a few amazing mothers in my life, and I am blessed and thankful for all of them.
One of those mothers has been on my mind in recent weeks, a mother I have not seen or spoken with in many, many years. She is the woman who gave birth to my daughter, Christine, 26 years ago this week, to be exact. It was one of the headlines of the day that renewed my resolve to share our unique experience.
Among the many political debates and shout-downs the new administration has brought us, there is renewed interest in the concept of public funding for abortions. Planned Parenthood has specifically been targeted by conservatives, and even though the issue at hand is funding, many liberals seemed convinced that President Trump and his Republican-controlled Congress aim to criminalize abortion completely.
I don't buy that, and I see no evidence of legislation or any political momentum to even attempt such a thing.
But perhaps in these days when Washington conservatives have more power in hand than since 2006, we could bring about real change and hope for those faced with unwanted pregnancies. Perhaps it is time to consider publicly funding adoptions, or at the very least, streamlining the process greatly.
I know a young couple right now that has started the adoption process, and it is as expensive and complicated as ever. Not quite as much as the aforementioned in-vitro process, but for many that is sadly not an option.
Planned Parenthood's website says a first trimester abortion costs around $1,500. I wonder what their response would be if they could be paid that much money for every single successful adoption they helped create by referring young women in need to the proper social agencies that handle such things? If given the opportunity to profit from an adoption the same way they do from an abortion, it would be fascinating to see what would happen.
In 1990, Planned Parenthood was running at full speed in their Broad Street location, and abortion was a far greater priority to them than adoption. Thank God in Heaven, a mother named Jennifer never considered them a "solution" for her unplanned, unborn child. Instead, she considered me.
I wrote Jennifer a letter in this space a few years ago, and it is as important to share it now as it ever was to remind women of their options when it comes to unwanted pregnancies.
They have a choice, no doubt, and one choice is vastly superior to the other.
Where do I begin to thank you for the greatest gift one human can give another?
It was your call. It could have all been over in 20 minutes. A "D&C" as it is called by some medical professionals… an abortion in the more common use of the phrase.
20 minutes… over and out.
You chose to take another route. You made the decision 26 years and seven months ago. You saw it through.
Thank you, wherever you are. Your choice gave me my daughter.
You sacrificed nine months of physical comfort, suffered countless nauseous mornings, survived fitful nights tortured by conscience and guilt, and faced every conceivable regret a soul can bear. You did it for me and her mother, you did it for her little brothers and sister, you did it for all of us who love her, and we thank you from the bottom of our heart.
I held her in my arms 60 seconds after she left your body, and in my heart, I have not let go of her once. She was perfect from the start, and makes me proud to this very moment.
Her first word was "Daddy"… her favorite sound was her mom's voice. Her first cat was Jackson, her first dogs, Sweetness and Penny. She watched spooky movies with me and played in the kitchen with her Ma. She shopped with Mama Bev and learned about the computer from Pa. She loves sports like her Aunt Judy, and music like her Uncle Bubba. She is an important part of a loving, extended family, and it is all because of you.
Twenty-six years later, she is a beautiful young woman with her entire life ahead of her, embarking on a career in public service that has made us all so very proud.
I wanted a smart, talented, athletic daughter, so it was clear I was going to have to adopt one. I got all that with Christine, and a whole lot more.
Like me, she is not much of a morning person. I got to see that up close every day as I used to drive her to school. She is a much better student than I was in most subjects, but just like me, she often loses sight of the finish line. Like her mom, she is a natural with small children, and she spent several years working as a beloved babysitter and cherished nanny.
Like every Rhodes on the planet, she pitches fits over lost football games and "fumbled" elections.
The next time someone does a "nature vs. nurture" study, they should consider January 2006 when our family team, the Pittsburgh Steelers, almost handed the Indianapolis Colts a playoff game on a platter. Not to rehash the game, but in the ultimate tense final moments, with a house full of family living and dying with every play, Christine and her Daddy Bob both disappeared out the backdoor, too angry and heartbroken to see anymore. When the Colts' kicker was wide right on the game-tying kick, the two of them reacted with the same amazed look of relief, disgust and celebration. Granddaughter and granddaddy… two of a kind in the Black and Gold, whooping it up in the backyard, entertaining neighbors in ever direction.
All was right in the world a few weeks later when we gathered again, in our customized jerseys, to cheer our team on to a Super Bowl victory. Just like I had last done with my dad and grandfather 30 years earlier.
Memories now sharing a place in my heart with Christine's first birthday party, her first roller coaster ride, her first concert, her first Christmas, her first day of school, and her high school graduation.
I stood beside her as she looked down on New York City for the first time from the Empire State Building, the first time she skied down a mountain, and the night she whispered and giggled in the corner of a crowded meeting room (much to the chagrin of a waiting Secret Service detail) with President Bush.
Christine has already had an incredible life, and the great part is she is just getting started.
When her mom and I were told we couldn't have children of our own we had no way of knowing what your wonderful choice was going to ultimately give us. It was your constitutional right to go the other way, and there was no one and nothing to guide you but your own heart, your own soul and your own faith.
You did the right thing, and we thank you for it every day of our lives. In 1991 there were 1,556,500 women who made the other choice.
Twenty-six years ago my first child and only daughter was born, and for the gift you gave me in her, I will remain eternally humbled and grateful.

ACC WARNS LOCAL COURT ADMINISTRATORS IN MATTRU JONG
ACC-News Room
The Southern Region Office of the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) on Thursday, 25th June, 2020, cautioned local court administrators in Mattru Jong over acts of extortion and abuse of office. This was made during an engagement with the court administrators in Mattru Jong, Bonthe District.
The Southern Region Manager of the ACC, Musa Jawara, admonished court administrators to uphold integrity, transparency and accountability as that will help ensure peace and stability among the people and their communities. He said moneys received from fines should be handled according to laid down public financial management procedures.
Mr. Jawara called on the authorities of the court to avoid abusing and violating people's rights, whilst also noting that issues surrounding contempt of court should not be used as a means to abuse their positions. He said that the jurisdiction of the local court is independent of the operations of chiefdom administrators. He cited the functions of the local courts authorities and asked them to remain as arbitrators rather than turning the court into some sort of 'farmhouse' to exploit unsuspecting members of the public. "Unlawful fines and punishments on citizens are becoming alarming and that has the tendency to threaten the peaceful co-existence of the State," he said.
ACC's Southern Region Prosecutor, Abubakarr Sannoh Esq., said that the improper constitution of the court is a recipe for procedural blunders. He called on local court authorities to stay within the boundaries of their jurisdictions as prescribed in Section 15 of the Local Court Act of 2011. He warned that items with monetary value such as cattle and agricultural produce are not prescribed by law as fines to levy against culprits. "Some of these issues have banished young men and women away from their communities," he reiterated.
The Local Court Chairman Osman Vandi appreciated the timely intervention of the Commission, and made a commitment to dispense justice to the people of Mattru Jong with fairness. He called on his colleagues to refrain from any act that will undermine the fair dispensation of justice.

Stonecloud was an inspiration brought on by the mountains of Colorado. During the 14 years that Joel lived in Colorado he spent hundreds of days climbing in the mountains. Every once in a while he would come across one of those great endless views, composed of layer upon layer of mountains, which eventually dissolved into the clouds on the horizon. These stone clouds gave us our name and continue to inspire our sense of adventure and quest for new beer experiences.


"If you are trying to learn something, whether it's physical or mental, you learn it to a certain point with practice," says Dr. Rapoport, who is an associate professor at NYU Langone Medical Center. "But something happens while you sleep that makes you learn it better".
Too much or too little sleep is associated with a shorter lifespan—although it's not clear if it's a cause or effect. (Illnesses may affect sleep patterns too).
"Many things that we take for granted are affected by sleep," says Raymonde Jean, MD, director of sleep medicine and associate director of critical care at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center in New York City. "If you sleep better, you can certainly live better. It's pretty clear".
"If you're trying to meet a deadline, you're willing to sacrifice sleep," Dr. Rapoport says, "but it's severe and reoccurring sleep deprivation that clearly impairs learning".
"Kids don't react the same way to sleep deprivation as adults do," he adds. "Whereas adults get sleepy, kids tend to get hyperactive".
"We diagnose and measure sleep by measuring electrical changes in the brain," Dr. Rapoport says. "So not surprisingly how we sleep affects the brain".
9. Have a healthy weight.
Researchers at the University of Chicago found that dieters who were well rested lost more fat 56% of their weight loss than those who were sleep deprived, who lost more muscle mass. (They shed similar amounts of total weight regardless of sleep).
"Sleep and metabolism are controlled by the same sectors of the brain," Dr. Rapoport says. "When you are sleepy, certain hormones go up in your blood, and those same hormones drive appetite".
"Sleep can definitely reduce levels of stress, and with that people can have better control of their blood pressure," Dr. Jean says. "It's also believed that sleep effects cholesterol levels, which plays a significant role in heart disease".
"Sleepiness is grossly underrated as a problem by most people, but the cost to society is enormous," Dr. Rapoport says. "Sleeplessness affects reaction time and decision making".
12. Steer clear of depression.
"A lack of sleep can contribute to depression," Dr. Jean says. "A good night's sleep can really help a moody person decrease their anxiety. You get more emotional stability with good sleep".

Helping purpose-driven talent thrive
"You can change the world and have a business career"
The internet has altered how many of us think and relate to the world around us, breaking down barriers and exposing causes in ways that weren't possible a generation ago. One result of this evolution is the purpose-driven professional.
It's difficult to overestimate the influence the Internet has had on the world. Sure, it's changed the way we communicate, shop, research, learn, and entertain ourselves. But, on a deeper level, it's altered how many of us think and relate to the world around us, breaking down barriers and exposing causes in ways that weren't possible a generation ago.
One result of this evolution is the purpose-driven professional. For six in 10 young workers, a "sense of purpose" is part of the reason they chose to join their current employers, according to DTTL's 2015 Millennial survey. And they're not alone; Gen Xers and veteran talent also are increasingly seeking opportunities to make an impact on the world around them both through the work they do and endeavors outside the office.
"Leading universities now offer courses in social entrepreneurship, impact investing, social-enterprise management, and social innovation. That's creating a new pool of professionals who can operate in both the business and social-sector realms," explains Margot Thom, Deloitte Global Chief Talent Officer. "The call and promise is, 'You can change the world and have a business career.' That's especially appealing to millennials, who are looking for work that elicits passion and helps them pursue professional, personal, and social goals simultaneously."
Business skills, social impact
One such career calling is cybersecurity. Many young job seekers see the havoc wreaked on society by cyber-based terrorism, computer intrusions, and cyber fraud, and decide they can make an impact that matters for consumers, economies, and even national security.
Several Deloitte member firms host "hackathon" events to give tech-minded students venues to demonstrate their talents, while providing valuable insights into the challenges and rewards that await those who choose a cybersecurity career. The Deloitte US Cyber Risk Services practice joined with the US's Deloitte Foundation to host one such event in April 2015. Students representing 10 of the top universities in the US competed against their peers and other schools for top honors, which went to the team from the University of Southern California. A second event with 15 teams is scheduled for late 2015.
Deloitte Digital in the UK member firm ran a similar "hackathon" competition, called "Gone Hacking," to identify ideas to disrupt and transform the financial services industry. Participants on 14 teams had 48 hours to develop and present their solutions to a panel of industry leaders, who helped refine participants' ideas. The most impressive concepts were awarded prizes and some participants were encouraged to apply to Deloitte UK's BrightStart training program, which helps talented students develop a successful business careers.
"Events like these not only provide great experiences for participating students, but they also help member firms develop a pipeline of talented recruits who otherwise may not have considered a career at Deloitte," says Jonathan Gray, Partner, Deloitte Digital, Deloitte U.K.
Figures are aggregate across DTTL and its member firms.
Companies are finding ways to link talent development and rewarding, purpose-driven work.

Not an either/or proposition
For those who want to have even more direct involvement insocial-impact activities, Deloitte member firms have long histories of offering professionals the ability to mix paid and pro bono assignments, be "seconded" to not-for-profits, take sabbaticals to help at social enterprises, and perform other skill-based volunteering. Networkwide, during FY2015, Deloitte professionals dedicated more than 340,000 hours to pro bono assignments and more than 820,000 hours to volunteering.
The concept of pursuing maximum financial, social, and environmental impacts has gained traction throughout the Deloitte network. "This has provided more opportunities for purpose-driven professionals to pursue personal pursuits while working within the corporate world," Thom says.
Nate Wong is one of those people. Wong, a Deloitte US manager in the Social Impact Strategy practice, once spent two weeks in Brazil working with a nonprofit group that serves disadvantaged youth in poverty-stricken favelas. The experience sparked an interest in international development that made him question his career path. "I actually thought about leaving my consulting job, until I realized I could pursue my passions and remain with Deloitte US," Wong says.
After taking a four-month sabbatical to work as a volunteer consultant in several countries in Southern Africa, Wong returned to a new emerging-markets role that let him apply his volunteer experiences to his work. Today, he is embedded at Deloitte US's newly launched Social Impact Strategy practice, helping public-, private-, and social-sector clients maximize their social impact. "My story is an example of the varied opportunities that are available at Deloitte," he says. "While transitions like mine aren't always simple, with leadership support, I've been able to align my work and my societal interests in a way that helps me make an impact that is truly satisfying."
The flexibility and socially focused conviction that appeals to millennials is beginning to attract nontraditional talent to Deloitte, as well. "A number of fundamental shifts are impacting traditional notions of employment, requiring organizations to take a much more flexible approach to attracting and retaining talent. For instance, there is a growing population that prefers to be self-employed so that they can choose the types of assignments they prefer and have the autonomy to manage their own work and schedules," Thom says.
"Several member firms have begun experimenting with flexible talent models to attract the specific skills and experience Deloitte needs to deliver on its business aspirations," she continues. "We have to explore every avenue to ensure Deloitte can provide an exceptional experience to its clients while recognizing professionals' evolving choices about how, where, and when they work."
The open talent economy is a collaborative, transparent, technology-enabled, rapid-cycle way of doing business.

Darrion Green, a hearing-impaired football star and Woodrow graduate, is headed to the Deaflympics this summer. The Deaflympics are exactly what they sound like: athletic competitions for deaf athletes from all over the world.
Green was picked for the U.S. Deaflympic track and field team, which will compete in Turkey July 18-30. Green will run the 110m hurdles, the 200m dash and the 4x100m relay.

Since Lakewood Theater's final performance in January 2015, the building has sat vacant. Due to requests for and approval of landmark status, the iconic theater has remained in the new.
Since February of this year, CBRE has been looking for new tenants. Jonathan Diamond is one of the brokers representing Willingham Property Co., who owns the theater, and is hoping to find a single tenant to take on the entire space but is open to other options, too.
What's next for the landmark?
One possibility, he says, is a Bowl and Barrel-type concept. The upscale boutique bowling alley serves craft beer and cocktails, with a location in the Shops at Park Lane. Diamond mentioned being in touch with The Rustic, the Uptown concert venue and restaurant, as another possible option, as well as Alamo Drafthouse, which will soon be opening at Skillman and Abrams, and Landmark Theatres, which is owned by Dallasite Mark Cuban.
Diamond says that the sizable ceiling heights and lack of columns are advantages for the space, which could be broken into multiple parcels as well. "There's a hole in that market for soft goods," he says, referring to non-restaurant uses such as clothing, beauty and pet supply stores.
Diamond says the owners have "gutted it and done all the remediation," though they have been careful to preserve what made the building a landmark. Norman Alston, a Hollywood-Santa Monica neighbor and architect who specializes in historic structures, worked with the owners to preserve the facade and iconic tower, as well as the interior murals by Dallas Nine artist Perry Nichols. He also discovered from the Lakewood Theater's original architectural drawings that there likely were plans to add retail space to the theater's southern wall, which gives the owners the option to build onto the south side and create openings in that wall.
When we spoke with Alston a few months ago, he told us that "the owners think restaurants are the most likely scenario," but that the brokers were still in conversations with performance and entertainment venues.
"At one point I thought, 'Well, we've been through that list,' but it turns out that list is much bigger," Alston says.
Brand Capital Partners Rendering of the property on Garland Road.
Jeff Brand, of Brand Capital Partners, says they are meeting with several restaurants interested in the property but don't have any specific tenants just yet. Brand mentioned that two or three businesses could occupy the space, including non-restaurant options as well.
Brand hopes to take advantage of the post-church brunch crowd, citing the number of churches along Garland Road. He wants to continue the expansion of local, quality restaurants up and down the thoroughfare. "We are trying to make a connection between our location and the restaurants at Peavy and Garland, which we call the 'Brooklyn of Dallas.'" says Brand, referring to hipster businesses like Goodfriend Package and Goodfriend Beer Garden and Burger House.
Brand also plans to boost the artistry of the center with murals and other public displays.
#FBF: Remember the #rainpocalypse? This June is trying its best to be #rainageddon.
The White Rock Lake Spillway is currently flooding. Is #rainageddon here?
After a dry May, June is more than making up for our lack of rain. Almost exactly two years ago, Instagram was blowing up with pictures of what was being called #rainpocalypse, and this week is doing its best to bring its own #rainageddon, with major downpours last Friday and today. In June of 2015, raging water was just feet from the Garland bridge over White Rock Creek, the boathouse and White Rock Trail were flooded, and low lying areas around the lake turned into impromptu ponds.
The island below the spillway is swamped.
The White Rock Lake spillway has flooded several times over the past weeks, with water washing out roads and parks in the neighborhood. According to The Dallas Morning News archives, the lake has flooded following heavy rains since the day it was built. Stay inside, put on some Netflix, and seek some shelter today as the already saturated ground continues to overflow with June rains. At least it isn't 97 degrees.
It's Spruce Up Time Again! Join Us Saturday June 10th for Our Shoreline Spruce Up!
The recent rains have brought lots of trash into the park. Help us get it all cleaned up and beautiful again. We provide all the supplies you need! Get your friends and colleagues together and enjoy a nice day in the park and give back to the community at the same time. Thanks to our Second Saturday sponsors, we can provide snacks and clean up supplies. We hope to see you there!
Summer Hours FTLOTL is taking a summer break.
Our office will be open by appointment only on the 1st, 3rd, and 4th Saturdays of June, July, and August. We are open for business as usual every Second Saturday.
Join us this Saturday at HSMNA's Pollinator Garden in Tenison Park, 9AM-Noon.
We will begin our summer schedule of 2nd and 4th Saturday mornings working to maintain our beautiful garden.
It will be a beautiful, almost- summer morning. Bring your hat and happiness!
Parking is along East Grand between Tenison Memorial and Blair.
Next volunteer day will be Saturday, June 24.

A Renaissance Man of Roots Music: The Sleeping Giant Folk Music Society Presents Colin Linden
Posted by admin | Music | 0
By Michelle McChristie
Colin Linden's last performance in Thunder Bay was magical. It was in March of 2014 with Blackie and the Rodeo Kings, a trio of musicians that are every bit as talented as solo acts as they are as a group. The sold out show was a highlight for everyone that attended, so it's no surprise that there was unanimous agreement among Sleeping Giant Folk Music Society (SGFMS) board members to bring Colin Linden back to Thunder Bay as a solo act.
"This is a big year for us," says Ian Gill, a board member. "We've now been presenting live music in Thunder Bay for fifteen years, so bringing in someone of his pedigree and talent is fitting and exciting." Gill says the SGFMS's experience hosting Linden when he performed with Blackie and the Rodeo Kings was fantastic. "Prior to hosting the band we had presented Stephen Fearing, and last season we hosted Tom Wilson, so now we are bringing in Colin Linden as a solo act."
Linden is touring in support of his new album, Rich in Love, which was released on September 25. It's his first studio recording since From The Water (2009) and features Linden on vocals, guitars, ukuleles and mandolin backed by his band, affectionately known as The Rotting Matadors. The 12 original songs were written by Linden, solo or in tandem with other writers such as his wife Janice Powers (a published novelist), band member John Dymond, and Grammy Award-winners Gary Nicholson and Tom Hambridge. As if those weren't enough credits, Linden also recorded and produced the album. It's a stellar piece of work no matter how you slice it, one that is best savoured during life's quieter moments.
"Colin Linden is a musical powerhouse," says Gill, speaking to the fact that he has been involved in the Canadian and American blues and roots music scenes since he was a teenager and has collaborated with the likes of Emmylou Harris, Bob Dylan, The Band, and Bruce Cockburn. "He is an engaging performer who is equally powerful in both acoustic and electric guitar formats. The impression he has made in the music industry over the course of his career is indelible and anyone coming to the show, even those who have not heard him by name will likely recognize his style and vocals," says Gill.
For the 2015-16 season the SGFMS has moved to a new venue, the Polish Hall on Court Street. "It has everything we wanted in a venue: great sound (thanks to our sound technician Dennis Dacey), perfect capacity for our audience size, balcony seating, and lots of free parking. There is bar service in the hall, a coat check and recently renovated washrooms," says Gill.
"We are lucky to have the opportunity to present these kinds of acts in Thunder Bay and in such an intimate setting," says Gill. "It's going to be an incredible show."
Colin Linden plays October 24, 8 pm at the Port Arthur Polish Hall, 102 South Court Street. Tickets are $35 advance at Chaltrek and Fireweed; $40 at the door.

Dutch Jihadists to be stripped of dual citizenship
Dutch citizens who join ISIS or Al Qaeda abroad to be stripped of citizenship, parliament votes Tuesday.
ISIS terrorists in Syria
Dutch MPs voted on Tuesday to strip dual nationals of their Dutch citizenship if they join terror groups such as Islamic State (ISIS) to fight as jihadists, officials said.
The lower house of parliament approved the controversial bill to revoke the Dutch citizenship of people with dual nationality, if they are deemed to have joined foreign terror groups like ISIS or Al-Qaeda - even if they have not been convicted of any crime.
The move comes in the wake of attacks in Paris last year and in Brussels in March, carried out by European extremists thought to have returned home after joining radical organizations in Syria or Iraq as foreign fighters.
"These jihadists can pose a threat to national security when they return to the Netherlands," the justice ministry said in a statement.
"Therefore, even without a conviction on a terror charge, the justice minister can decide to strip a person of their nationality, if that person is deemed to have joined a terror organization," ministry spokesman Wiebe Alkema told AFP.
However, the ruling would not apply to people who only have Dutch nationality, Alkema added. Under international conventions, countries are not allowed to intentionally make people stateless.
Justice Minister Ard Van der Steur first proposed the changes to the law late last year, saying they were necessary to stop jihadists returning to the Netherlands.
"The scrapping of Dutch nationality becomes possible as soon as somebody in a foreign country joins a group on a list of terror organizations" such as ISIS or Al-Qaeda, the justice ministry statement said.
"Once approved, the person will be declared an undesirable foreigner. It will prevent them from returning to the Netherlands or the Schengen zone," it added.
But the bill has caused discord in parliament, with some leftist parties arguing it could lead to even greater radicalization.
According to past estimates by the Dutch secret services, 200 people from the Netherlands including 50 women have joined ISIS in Syria and Iraq.
AFP contributed this report.

Ancient Alien Agenda: Aliens and UFOs from the Area 51 Archives quantity
There is startling evidence that we were visited by intelligent beings in the ancient past. Why were they here and what was their agenda? Zecharia Sitchin is the author of the hugely successful book series "The Earth Chronicles." Join this amazing scholar of ancient mysteries as he makes a scientific and scholarly argument for Ancient Alien visits to Earth. Sitchin was born in Russia, raised in Palestine and graduated from the University of London. He worked for years as a journalist and editor in Israel before settling in New York. Sitchin, like Velikovsky and Von Daniken, gives a compelling and entertaining presentation detailing evidence that Ancient Aliens from other worlds have not only visited the earth but plan to RETURN. Sitchin's theories are based on his belief that some ancient myths are not myths at all but historical and scientific texts.

UFO Chronicles: The Shadow World
UFO Chronicles is an unprecedented and uncensored film series featuring the top authorities on the UFO enigma. Pilots, Astronauts, Government Officials, Military Officials, Medical Experts, Scientists, Religious Leaders and more reveal, in never before seen interviews, the ramifications of the Alien Presence on planet Earth. Lt. Col. USAF (Ret) Donald M. Ware has witnessed 8 Alien crafts including the fly overs by UFOs over the Capitol building in Washington DC. Mr. Ware is a former F-100 fighter pilot and nuclear engineer who also has served as MUFONs Eastern Regional Director and for 18 years was a Director of the International UFO Congress. Mr. Ware discusses Underground bases, Alien-Human Hybrids, the Atlantis Connection, Bigfoot encounters, and the alien technology now being used by the United States in conjunction with a Shadow World government that is preparing for the upcoming series of Earth changing events we are about to face on a worldwide basis. Most powerful is his disclosure of what is happening to the men and women of our planet during their abduction experiences, and the massive use of humans to breed a new species of human with higher intelligence as the future residents and leaders of Earth.

Q: Prove divisibility is a partial order relation over natural numbers I have proceeded like this so far:
(this natural number set includes $0$)
Reflexivity:
Proof: $a = k \cdot a,$ since $k$ also belongs to natural number, it is proved.
Anti-symmetry:
$a \mid b$ means $a = k_1 \cdot b$ and $b \mid a$ means $b = k_2 \cdot a$ now, $a = k1\cdot k2\cdot a.$ this means $a = b.$
Transitivity:
Not sure how to prove this.
I know it holds but not sure how it can be shown mathematically.

A: Well if $a\mid b$ and $b\mid c,$ then $b=da$ and $c=eb$ for some natural numbers $d,e,$ and so $c=....$ can you take it from there?
Your reflexivity proof needs fixed, though. What is $k$?
Also, I would add a bit to your antisymmetry proof. Since $a=k_1k_2a,$ then $k_1k_2=1$ if $a\ne 0,$ so since $k_1,k_2$ are naturals, then $k_1=1,$ and so $a=b$ as desired. Now, in the case that $a=0,$ we must proceed a bit differently: since $a\mid b,$ then we have $b=k_2a=0$ directly.

A: Since $a \mid b \implies a=sb, s \in \mathbb{N} \tag{1}$
And $b \mid c \implies b=tc t \in \mathbb{N} \tag{2}$
From $(1)$ and $(2)$
$$a=sb=s(tc) = (st)c = uc$$
, where $u = st \in \mathbb{N}$.
Hence $a=uc \implies a \mid c$.

You're ready to move forward with advertising your business. How do you decide what media source to use? What digital platform works best? How much should you appropriate in your budget? You want to be sure that your campaign is successful. Here are three tips to starting an advertising campaign to put you on the path to success.
Before you can decide where to advertise or how much to spend, it's best to start with your audience. Determine who your core customers are and build general personas around them. Don't try to target the audience with whom you struggle. Instead, lead with your best foot forward and focus on the customers from whom you generate the bulk of your revenue. Are you targeting women or men, students or empty nesters? Know your audience first and then use that demographic to determine what media sources best reach those personas.
You don't have to be everywhere in advertising to be successful. For example, don't feel obligated to do all social media channels if you're not ready. Just like you don't have to be on all television networks to be seen by your key demographic. We have discovered its best to work your ad campaigns around the organic cycles of your business and your promotional marketing calendar. For some of our clients, January and February are the best months of the year, and for others, those months are lean…almost non-existent in terms of revenue. It's always smart to shape your advertising and outreach expenditures to model your businesses normal business cycles. Think of the ideal advertising campaign as a "recipe". You don't throw all the ingredients in at once… and hope for the best. Creating a successful marketing plan requires the correct ratio of multiple ingredients… mixed together…at the right time… and delivered in a compelling manner. We believe in the aggregate value of a fantastic website, insightful SEO, engaging social media, digital marketing, print, broadcast (radio & television), direct mail, outdoor, billboard and email marketing & outreach. …the right balance, ratio and timing of all things that engage and influence your target market. It's important to choose two or three advertising mediums at first and own them. Invest all your efforts in a few areas for maximum results. Don't spread your budget too thin… across too many channels, risking marginal results.
Be prepared to measure results. Don't go into any advertising campaign blindly. Your message or call to action should be designed to produce measurable results. Use a unique tagline, phone number or hashtag. Prompt customers to mention ads or social media for possible discounts. Know your potential reach and frequency and be prepared to track the data. It will be essential to utilize these statistics for future campaigns. In today's advertising market, there are literally hundreds of options, and it can make it hard to determine what advertising strategy is best for your business. Start wherever you are, develop your target audience and dominate. Gather your relevant data and track your results. Remember, advertising is not a perfect science, but the businesses that really succeed have the courage to invest in their brand and message by committing meaningful resources. Then, they keep what works and eliminate the initiatives that don't work so well. …rinse and repeat.

Onset/offset Applique! Foxy Pocket Purse is a good example!
What in the world is onset/offset applique? I made up the term -- and if anyone has a better name, please! But I am loving this technique where part of the applique is stitched onto or into other fabric areas and the other part of the applique creates a finished edge. So Fish Fry from my previous post and shown again below has most of the 'fish head' sewn into the bias trim. And the 'fin edge' creates a finished edge. Foxy Pocket Purse has the nose of the fox sewn/appliqued onto the front purse panel, but the 'ears edge' creates the finished edge with the sides of the fox face sewn into the seams. All these appliques are lined or you might say 'has a finished reverse side', so it can create a pocket or opening. Each version has its own custom instruction because they are made in different ways. More of this technique to come!
Foxy Pocket Purse -- P223 or vhE223 for the epattern download.
You are invited to a Fish Fry!
It's been while. Every time I am working on new patterns, I seem to take a leave of absence from posting. I just don't know how to perfect the patterns and do anything else that distracts me. But I will have some posts all together here for the next while, revealing the latest three releases. They are ready and no other pattern projects in the feed dogs!
So here's Fish Fry.....oven mitt! The wrap-around oven mitt is great for retrieving hot casserole dishes from the oven! There is thermal fleece on the side that touches the heat source and heavy-weight interfacing on the back-of-hand side. The back-of-hand side convexes a bit, making it real easy to slip the oven mitts on in a hurry!
Versions include the double-handed mitt and a single-hand mitt! One size fits all!
And as always in Vanilla House patterns, the instructions are very thorough, with an illustration per every step.
This pattern is available in your local independent craft store (soon), or you can buy direct from our website, either a paper pattern by post or download an epattern (vhE222).

sofamecca writes"Sofamecca return to release their latest collection of widescreen urban soundtracks under the title 'Commuters'. On this new outing we discover a joyfully moody and darkly compelling view of urban life – eleven tracks of lush guitars, unruly beats and precocious synths providing the backdrop for the late night melancholy of tracks like 'There and Then', to the tongue in cheek musings of 'Omar Sharif' and wistful romanticism of 'Saturdays'. Once again produced and recorded by Sofamecca, 'Commuters' takes the listener on an intriguing journey into their experimental DIY landscape and at times plays like a modern day 'spaghetti western', with several tracks already earmarked for upcoming film projects including the new Australian film 'Rats and Cats' from the producers of the movie 'One Perfect Day'. For the adventurous at heart, Sofamecca offer another unusual but remarkable release… (Floodboy Records) >>> Visit http://www.sofamecca.net for more info."
Poita writes"(Punk / Rock) Kyle Wills - Lead/Vocals | Peter Stewart - Bass/Vocals | Ben Seaver - Drums | Beau Tynan - Rhythm Guitar | --- We have a few songs, and are based in the south eastern suburbs a bit north of frankston in seaford/patterson lakes. We don't really know what to call what we play, or how to describe it. So, when we get some mp3's up, see for yourself."
