FAQ - How do I mark my notifications as read?
There are three ways to mark notifications as read. If you click on the notification and read the content it will be marked as read. You can hover over the content notification with your cursor and a little red X will pop up and you can click on it. Or you can go to your notifications and click “Mark all as viewed”.

I was super happy when I figured out how to "mark all as read"

Thanks Katie! I use the little red x most of the time but had no idea you could mark all. I learned something new!

Very helpful if you don't feel like reading through all of them lol..The first ambient piece of music that I heard was Eno's remix of Suede's 'Introducing The Band'. I remember listening to all 16 minutes of it wondering when it would start. It never did. Then I understood I had to listen in a different way. I could also have chosen Heroes, which reminds me of driving through Milton Keynes on a frosty morning, but the second half of Low has such depth and detail I could happily have it on repeat for a few months.
Pieces like 'Art Decade' sounded to me like they came from ancient Rome. There was a real complexity to it, far beyond the bland axis of mere human happiness or sadness. The images that this album must have conjured in people's minds are collectively an enormous series of great artworks in themselves. They should have exhibitions of the stuff.Gina Spriggs on the Francene Marie Show. Originally aired on February 9, 2019. Direct link to audio site.

Everything runs on wild salmon in Alaska’s Bristol Bay. Nature runs on salmon. Communities. Business and industry. Salmon is the basis of millennia-old Indigenous tradition. The lands and waters of Bristol Bay produce more wild salmon than anywhere else on Earth and that fuels a sustainable commercial salmon fishery valued at $1 billion annually.
Bristol Bay is home for half of the Earth’s wild sockeye salmon. Why? It’s the wealth of healthy streams and rivers, wetlands and lakes. This mix of pristine habitat creates a diverse genetic portfolio of several hundred discrete sockeye salmon populations – and this diversity is key to productivity and long-term sustainability.
Bristol Bay’s portfolio of genetic diversity – much like a diverse investment portfolio – contributes to a more resilient salmon system and bolsters local fishery-dependent economies. Wiping out or harming any of these discrete salmon populations puts the productivity of the larger Bristol Bay salmon system at risk over time.
To protect this globally significant diversity of wild salmon populations and the people who depend on them, The Nature Conservancy has invested in a science-led process to assess the risk of developing the proposed Pebble mine in the headwaters of two major salmon rivers. This research led to an influential 2010 resolution on large-scale mining in Bristol Bay which was authored by the Board of Trustees of The Nature Conservancy in Alaska on large-scale mining in Bristol Bay.
The Pebble mine was first proposed more than a decade ago for the headwaters of the Nushagak and Kvichak rivers in Bristol Bay in southwest Alaska. In late 2017, the Pebble Limited Partnership submitted a mine plan in its permit application to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. That documentation described plans to fill thousands of acres of wetlands – initiating a formal review process as established by the National Environmental Policy Act, or NEPA.
The Pebble copper and gold mine proposal calls for an unprecedented level of development for western Alaska, including a 188-mile gas pipeline, a 65-mile road, port infrastructure to support an ore-hauling barge on Lake Iliamna, and a tidewater port site at Amekdedori Creek on the western shore of Cook Inlet located 95 miles southwest of Homer.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers released a draft environmental impact statement on February 20, 2019. The public comment period extends from March 1, 2019 through May 31, 2019. Information on commenting about the mining proposal is available on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Pebble Project EIS website.
Our Bristol Bay Interactive Map sheds light on an interconnected and complicated landscape and pulls together data from across the region so that scientists, decision-makers and concerned citizens can see in one place everything from the footprint of the proposed Pebble mine to at-risk salmon streams.
Since the Pebble mine was proposed for the headwaters of the Nushagak and Kvichak rivers in the early 2000s, The Nature Conservancy, tribal environment programs, and other research organizations have compiled thorough inventories of the region’s salmon streams, hydrology, traditional use areas, water quality and more.

Then he can respond by killing Iranians, and the subsequent bloodbath will make a revival of the Iran Deal in the future impossible, even under a Democrat President. The Zionists, Neoconas and their GOP stooges will scream that they are making a deal with a regime that has killed Americans.

Look for the Zionists, Saudis and their GOP stooges to continue to support the increasing provocations by their stooge Trump to get Iran to respond with violence.Greatly entertaining bio-pic of heavyweight champion James J. Corbett. Errol Flynn is excellent in the title role and his natural athleticism serves him well in the numerous fight scenes. This was reportedly Flynn's favorite of his film performances and his post-fight scene with Ward Bond as the defeated John L. Sullivan is quite touching.Everyday we hear more and more about how robots are taking our jobs, but in the UK the problem is more often that no one can fill those jobs in the first place. Far from taking our jobs, robots are creating new ones, granting us new opportunities and allowing us to develop the way we work. Rather than mistrusting new technology, we need to use it – particularly in the field of recruitment.
Recruitment involves a lot of (necessary) administration. In fact, a massive 80% of the recruitment process is low value and simply transactional and it is no one’s favourite part of the job. It is hard to see the direct business impact or its contribution to company success, but it needs to be done. Rules must be followed.
So, why not automate it? Hand it over to the robots. These less complicated tasks could easily be completed by robot assistants. Automating the low value tasks (that people don’t even really want to do) enables recruiters to focus and donate their time to more strategic tasks, moving from just standard recruitment to talent acquisition and crucial succession planning for the future.
With such a competitive market for talent, candidates can have their pick of employers – and they know it. You cannot afford to be losing out on great employees because they are put off by a poor hiring process, potentially having bigger repercussions for your employer brand as a whole. You may think that robots could be seen as cold and impersonal, but they could in fact help create a great candidate experience.
Much more informative than an old-school CV, chatbots can hold a quick interview with applicants using voice and video interaction. Based on criteria outlined beforehand and the consequent answers given by the candidate, the chatbot can then invite the applicant to the next level for a full interview or let them know if they have been unsuccessful. Not all of us may like taking to machines but how many times have candidates just never heard anything back from an employer at all after applying for a job? It certainly can spawn some serious resentment. Using chatbots, recruiters can be assured that they have five great candidates to interview and that the other applicants have been politely dealt with. Moreover, it gives a great impression to potential employees that the company is completely up to speed with new technology and is a future-looking business.
So, you may now be fully convinced that automation and robots could be the way forward for streamlining and perfecting your hiring programme, but before you get carried away, you need to make sure that you
