Wojnarowicz: F**k You F*ggot F**ker
Chris McKim
March 19, 2021 through April 1, 2021
New Documentary
"A deeply moving documentary portrait … One of the best movies of 2020."
Richard Brody, The New Yorker
In the 1980s, the AIDS pandemic decimating America's queer community was met with official indifference. This dazzling new documentary profiles the incendiary artist and activist David Wojnarowicz (1954–1992), who responded to society's inaction by weaponizing his art and waging war on the establishment. Wojnarowicz survived an abusive childhood in New Jersey, worked on the streets of New York City as a hustler, and found his calling in the East Village's outsider art scene. When the mainstream art world came courting, Wojnarowicz was ambivalent; when AIDS began killing those dearest to him (it would ultimately claim Wojnarowicz as well), he became an angry advocate for urgent action. Wojnarowicz's art, provocative and unapologetically queer, also made him, like Robert Mapplethorpe, a flashpoint in America's culture wars. Directed by Chris McKim, former showrunner of RuPaul's Drag Race, this affecting and strikingly timely film makes dynamic use of Wojnarowicz's rich body of work, including paintings, photographs, films, and audio journals. (Wojnarowicz's filmic legacy was the subject of a 2020 exhibition presented at The Cinematheque in partnership with the Belkin Art Gallery and Griffin Art Projects.)
Advisory: Contains sexually explicit images.
The film is followed by a Q&A with director Chris McKim, producer Fenton Bailey, and interviewees Gracie Mansion and Carlo McCormick, moderated by Jerry Portwood of Rolling Stone.
"Immersive, impassioned, defiantly alive … A stirring requiem of rage and resistance."
"Insightful, essential … A rich and riveting work … A testimony to the enduring power of art."
James Kleinmann, The Queer Review

Roberto Valcárcel
(La Paz, Bolivia, 1951 – 2021): Visual artist, university professor, and lecturer. A pioneer who introduced visual alternatives and contemporary themes in Bolivian art in the last decades of the twentieth century. In his private workshops of creativity and art history, he developed his own critical discourse and he received audiences of diverse nature to reflect on art under original conceptual structures, far from the hierarchies established by Eurocentric and chronological traditions. Institutionally, he was a professor at the Faculty of Architecture and Arts of the Universidad Mayor de San Andrés and director of the Arts Studies at the same university. In his personal work, language and questioning of the symbols and messages inscribed are aimed at problematizing issues of the art market, of the traditional figurative representation, and of the historical panorama of Bolivian art, among other varied themes. He also developed conceptual projects such as 'Producciones Valcárcel' (1978), a space devoted to collective artistic research, as well as the 'Sociedad Interplanetaria de Artistas' ('Interplanetary Society of Artists') (1984), the 'Movimiento Erótico' ('Erotic Movement') (1983), and the 'Banco Nacional de Ideas' ('National Bank of Ideas') (1992).

Q: php assign 2 variables to form value element Is there a way to assign 2 variable values to a value in a form:
echo "  <input name='Radio1' type='radio' value='$course_id . $date_1'/>$date_1
";

A: This would be what you are looking for:
echo "  <input name='Radio1' type='radio' value='$course_id$date_1'/>$date_1
";

Or in a more readable way:
echo "  <input name='Radio1' type='radio' value='".$course_id.$date_1."'/>$date_1
";

Regards,
STEFAN

A: You could do this:
echo '<input type="radio" name="Radio1" value="',$course_id,'_',$date_1,'" />',$date_1,'
';
On the receiving page:
$parts = explode('_',$_GET['Radio1']);
$course_id = $parts[0];
$date = $parts[1];

A: This way has the data separated in perhaps a more useful way:
<input type="text" name="course[$course_id]" value="$date_1" />

A: you can use printf
$input = "<input name='Radio1' type='radio' value='%s%s'/>%s
";
printf ( $input, $course_id, $date_1, $date_1 );

Reagan's agreement to Iran inquiry is bow to party pressure
By Joseph C. Harsch
Anyone wishing to know where the power lies and what is going on in the capital of the greatest power on earth, Washington, should do an easy exercise. First, take the text of what President Reagan said to Time magazine's Hugh Sidey over the telephone from the White House on the Wednesday before setting out for Thanksgiving in California. Then look at what he did six days later on his return to Washington after talking to his principal advisers, including congressional leaders from the President's Republican Party.
Before he went to California, everything that has gone wrong for him of late was a result of ``a great irresponsibility on the part of the press'' and it was going to be easily cured. ``I've appointed a little group of my own to look into this to see if we can improve the procedures in the NSC,'' the President said, referring to his National Security Council.
But six days later he announced that he had agreed to the appointment of an independent counsel by a federal court that will conduct ``a thorough review of all aspects of this matter,'' meaning the sale of guns to Iran and the diversion of funds from that sale to the Nicaraguan rebels known as contras.
Also, he requested a separate investigation to be conducted by Congress.
In other words, the Reagan who faced the leaders of his party on returning from California has agreed to allow, and to cooperate with, at least three separate investigations into the affair: the three-man investigation headed by former Sen. John Tower that Reagan appointed himself, the inquiry of the independent counsel, and whatever probe Congress decides to undertake.
This, in turn, has two meanings. First, it means that there will be a long, continuing news story coming from the investigations which could last well into next year, with a continuing influence on the conduct of the government.
Second, it means that a group of persons not yet fully coalesced or identifiable has taken over the decision process in Washington and will be the source of ultimate decision, presumably through the end of the Reagan presidency.
The reason for Mr. Reagan's capitulation on his return to Washington is obvious. The leaders of his political party remember vividly the Watergate affair and what it did to another Republican president, Richard Nixon. They learned a lesson from that experience. They learned that the politically fatal thing to do is to attempt to cover up something that a president might like to cover up.
So we are now at the stage where the leaders of the Republican Party have, for the sake of the party, imposed on President Reagan the fullest possible disclosure of all facets of the affair.
Foreign offices around the world take note: This situation has a number of subordinate meanings for other countries. There can be no more sale of United States guns to Iran. There will be a decline in US support for the contras. Congress will probably allow the $100 million aid voted in the current budget to be spent for the contras, but it is highly unlikely that the next Congress, which opens early next month and which will be in Democratic hands, will ever vote another substantial appropriation for guns for contras.
An interesting question is what effect the changes in Washington will have on US relations with the Soviets.
What we are really talking about is what jobs the new, informal leadership in Washington will give Mr. Reagan to do during the remaining two years of his titular presidency.
They may well decide to let him try for an arms control agreement with the Soviets. This would keep him busy. It would keep him in the news doing what most Washingtonians regard as being a ``good'' thing, i.e., trying to improve or ease US relations with the Soviets. He might become enthusiastic about the job. He might be allowed to sweeten the package that is being sorted out from the crash landing at October's superpower summit in Reykjavik, Iceland.
Then, of course, we come to the question of whether the Soviets will think it worth their while to do any more negotiating with a man whose presidency is so obviously in a twilight phase.
A reasonable guess is that the Soviets will make no decision until they see whether George Shultz is to remain at the State Department for the balance of the Reagan term.
Mr. Shultz's future is one of those matters that will be decided in the general process of remaking the new White House leadership. At this writing, that process has reached the stage only of appointing a professional career diplomat, Frank Carlucci, to the position of chief foreign policy assistant to the President.
The next question is the identity of the new White House chief of staff. That there will be a new one is inevitable. All the current White House troubles began after Donald Regan took over the chief of staff role. The Republican Party leadership is going to insist on having a new person of their collective choosing in that post.
Those working on the damage control process have of course thought of the possibility of Mr. Reagan resigning before the end of his term. But the idea is premature right now. Before any of the party leaders think about that one seriously, they will want to know how Vice-President George Bush's reputation survives the investigations that are now getting under way.

Posted on September 18, 2007 by Ray Williams (NMLS #216267).
WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — Reaching out to hard-hit borrowers in the subprime-mortgage market, the House on Tuesday passed a bill that lowers down payments for borrowers, raises loan limits and boosts funds for housing counseling.
Passed by a vote of 348 to 72, the bill reforms the Federal Housing Administration and is the latest lifeline thrown to borrowers from Washington as the fallout in the mortgage market continues.
About two million loans are expected to reset to higher rates in the next two years, with defaults expected to follow. Congress and the White House have floated various proposals to stem the damage.
The bill directs up to $300 million a year into an affordable housing fund. A motion offered by Rep. Jeb Hensarling, R-Texas, to kill the fund was rejected.
"We do not have a general program for helping build affordable family housing, and that's what this bill would do," said Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee.
Lawmakers also passed an amendment to the bill offered by Frank that would raise the agency's loan limit from its current $417,000 to as much as $729,750.
"Such an increase would ensure that FHA is a viable option for borrowers who have payment option and interest-only adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs), which will be resetting in the next few years," said Stanford Group Company analyst Jaret Seiberg.
However, the Bush administration has registered opposition to that and other key parts of the House bill.
"The program should remain targeted to traditionally underserved homebuyers, such as low- and moderate-income families," the White House said in a statement on Monday.
The National Association of Mortgage Brokers supported the amendment raising the loan limit.
"Because FHA has been driven from those parts of the country where consumers are most in need of affordable financing, such as California, millions of borrowers have been forced to turn to high-cost financing and other non-traditional loan products," wrote NAMB President George Hanzimanolis, in a letter to lawmakers.
The bill eliminates down payment requirements on FHA loans. The requirement is currently 3%.
Some Republicans opposed the housing fund. "A better approach is to dedicate the FHA surplus to shoring up the financial solvency" of an agency program, said Rep. Spencer Bachus, R-Ala. Frank, however, said that no money would go to the trust fund until FHA solvency was certified.
The Senate Banking Committee is scheduled to debate its own FHA bill on Wednesday. President Bush would need to sign a final version for the bill to become law.
In separate action on Tuesday, the House Financial Services Committee approved a bill granting new authority to the FDIC and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to write rules against deceptive lending practices. Traditionally only the Federal Reserve has had such powers. The bill would need to be approved by the House and the Senate to become law.
Tuesday's House vote came as the Fed unanimously voted to cut its overnight interest rate target by a half percentage point to 4.75%, citing turmoil in financial markets as a threat to economic growth. See full story.

Bronx Trans Woman Brutally Attacked by Grindr Date
A Mexican transgender woman said she was brutally attacked by a man she met on Grindr.
REUTERS/Aly Song/Illustration/File Photo
A Mexican transgender woman was allegedly brutally attacked by a Grindr date in her apartment in the Bronx on May 5.
Roxy Perez, 58, of the South Bronx, said a man she met on the app beat her after she repeatedly declined his requests for sex. Following the verbal dispute, the man became aggressive and punched Perez multiple times in the apartment, NYPD spokesperson Sergeant Edward Riley said in a statement.
"He kept pushing me," Perez said in a phone call to Gay City News. "What part of 'I don't want to have sex with you' do you not understand?"
In the moments leading up to the attack, the survivor said the man sent her more than two dozen messages.
"I want to see you," the perpetrator allegedly wrote in a text message to the victim. "I have to see you."
"No, I am tired," Perez replied.
However, the harassing messages did not stop until she complied with his invitation.
When the man arrived at Perez's apartment, he allegedly insisted on coming upstairs despite her request for him to wait 30 minutes so she could get ready. When the perpetrator entered Perez's home, he groped her, and then when she asked him to leave, he accused her of stealing his cell phone.
"If I don't find my cell phone, I'm not leaving," the perpetrator threatened, according to Perez. As Perez denied the man's accusations, he allegedly told her, "I want to kill you."
When Perez attempted to call the police, Perez said the suspect snatched the phone from the victim's hand and fled the scene. After the alleged attack Perez suffered a cut above her left eye, bruising, and swelling on both sides of her face. She was later transported to Lincoln Hospital.
The NYPD is still investigating the incident and has not made any arrests at this time. As a transgender woman, she said strangers often over-sexualize her body or assume she is "hungry for sex." Perez, a former GED instructor, said this incident served as a reminder of the importance of consent and bodily autonomy.
"Nobody can touch me if I say no," she said. "It's not about the sex. It is about my dignity. Because I'm transgender, I'm supposed to want sex 24/7?"
This attack comes amid a spate of crimes on the dating app. On the same day Perez was allegedly attacked in New York, authorities in Atlanta issued a warning that said suspects are luring victims in through Grindr, taking them to a remote location, and then pulling out a gun to rob them after the date. In March, the Department of Justice said a Louisiana man was indicted for allegedly attempting to kidnap and murder queer individuals he met on the app.
Perez described Grindr as "Russian roulette" and warned other LGBTQ people about meeting strangers on the app. She worries that if the perpetrator is still on the streets, another person might be killed. Weeks after the attack, police are still searching for the suspect, and Perez said she wants to address her assailant head-on.
"I want to confront him and ask why he did that?" she asked. "There was no reason."

Sport is now war...
Learning this afternoon that radicals in Pakistan had attacked the Sri Lankan cricket team bus and killed 8 people should finally convince those people off with the fairies that politics and sport do cross over and secondly - those who compare playing a game to the reality of warfare are way off the mark.
The intensity of sporting competition may bring out the inner cave man in some athletes but I'm willing to assume that the feelings that the members of the Sri Lankan cricket team were totally different when their bus was attacked by gunmen than when they are playing in the so called cauldron of Test cricket.
The only positive to come out of this terrible attack is that the security men who were on detail with the Sri Lankans obviously did their job and as of 8:08pm AEST tonight, no members of the team were killed and those who were injured were quickly evacuated from the scene.
Here is a BBC report with video: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/7920272.stm
No one can claim that the Pakistani security didn't do their job because if we are fair dinkum about it - no amount of security or preparation can stop madmen from doing something that is so insane. The fact the security forces managed to keep the players safe from what has been reported as 12 masked gunmen should be praised as having done their job and although clearly this attack has implications over the short, if not long term future of international cricket being played in Pakistan the blame cannot rest on the shoulders of the Pakistan government for this.
I won't even try to get into the mind of what drives someone or a group to do this kind of thing but we should be grieving for the lives and praising the efforts of the men who died in this assault first and foremost before we begin to grieve over the future of Pakistani cricket.
The Sri Lankan team were airlifted from the ground in Lahore to an air base where they will depart for Sri Lanka very soon. The Test Match clearly has been abandoned.
"The players are shocked. They have never gone through anything like this before," former Sri Lankan player Sanath Jayasuriya told an Indian news channel on the phone from Colombo, which says all you need to know about why this notion that sport is war is so utterly wide of the mark.
We will have time to consider all the repucussions of this attack in the next few months, if not years, but we should be thankful to God for having helped the securit forces protect those who they chose to defend from an assault by people who simply cannot hold to the sanctity of human life.

Creatively Attracting the Industry's Next Generation
Contractors discuss how they attract and retain younger employees
SOURCING NEW TALENT: Jose Lopes, a technician at MSI Mechanical Systems Inc. in Salem, New Hampshire, is a graduate of MSI's School to Career co-op program with Blackstone Valley Regional Vocational Technical High School.
BEING VISIBLE: Reps at St. Paul, Minnesota-based Minneapolis Saint Paul Plumbing Heating Air Inc. (MSP) sit on the advisory boards of local trade schools as a way to attract younger employees who are new to the workforce.
TRAINING YOUNG TALENT: MSI Mechanical Systems Inc. was having difficulty finding new employees to meet market demand, so the company created a co-op program with a local high school to train prospective employees before they pick up bad habits. Mike Mingace (shown here), a full-time technician with MSI, is a graduate of the program.
TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION: Reitmeier HVAC Services in Tualatin, Oregon, created Reitmeier University, a two-year continuing education program for training and certifying new employees in commercial HVAC services. The program's curriculum is completely online because millennials prefer online communication, such as text messaging, and because the company is working toward becoming completely paperless.

KEYWORDS Business Practices in HVACR / employee satisfaction / HVAC contracting / millennials
In the labor market, the term millennials has become almost a dirty word. Millennials are entitled, high-maintenance, have no loyalty to their employers, and the list of stereotypes goes on and on. Today, more than one in three workers is a millennial. Millennials have surpassed their predecessors and now outnumber Gen-Xer's in the American workforce, according to the Pew Research Center.
And, as a shortage of labor continues to plague the HVACR industry, it's more important than ever for contractors to attract and retain a younger generation of employees.
GOING DIGITAL
Rich Morgan, president of Magic Touch Mechanical Inc. in Mesa, Arizona, recently implemented a digital applications process that he believes is more appealing to younger prospects.
"We implemented online applications, a résumé upload function, and more on our website a few years ago in order to make it easier for younger, tech-savvy workers to apply," Morgan said. "We've also implemented the use of social media marketing specifically geared toward the recruitment of millennials."
Magic Touch offers employees extensive hands-on and online training programs, among other things, to keep them satisfied in the workplace.
"We offer from-the-ground-up training via hands-on learning labs at our facility four days a week, online training programs, senior tech ride-alongs, and mentoring programs for the younger generation, which helps keep them engaged and focused on developing and growing their careers in the industry and with Magic Touch," Morgan said. "We also offer a clear career path so they can anticipate future incentives, bonuses, commissions, pay, and benefits. We also offer a relaxed, fun work environment, which the younger crowd seems to prefer."
APPEALING TO A YOUNGER CROWD
Scott Merritt, owner of Fire & Ice Heating & Air Conditioning Inc. in Columbus, Ohio, has had great success finding new employees through local trade and technical schools. To cultivate this pipeline, he serves on the advisory boards of two local technical colleges.
Additionally, Merritt is teaming with his local ACCA affiliate to create a program that allows him and a few others to speak directly to high school students.
"I just spoke as the keynote speaker at my alma mater, the American School of Technology, at its graduation ceremony with about 700 people in attendance. Many young adults were there, as well."
Merritt has had success attracting younger employees through sign-on bonuses.
"Admittedly, we don't seek out employees 25 or younger very often," he said. "I like ex-military guys, or individuals who grew up in the country, where hard work is normal fare. It's difficult to keep younger employees satisfied. You have to pat them on the head every day or so, and, for the most part, they feel like they're owed something."
The managers at St. Paul, Minnesota-based Minneapolis Saint Paul Plumbing Heating Air Inc. (MSP) also serve on local trade school advisory boards, said Andy Ryan, general manager, MSP.
"We're reaching younger folks where they're most likely to see us," Ryan said. "We aim to reach them through various social media sites and attract them with recruitment videos on YouTube and so on. Programs like Troops to Trades and other organizations like Explore the Trades are great avenues for reaching a younger demographic. In addition, some of our most talented employees were in the corporate world and left, went to trade school, and are happier than ever working in this industry."
MSP also incentivizes employees based on performance, which helps keep younger employees satisfied.
"Performance-based pay programs allow our younger technicians to reach their personal goals outside of the workplace, such as home ownership or buying a new vehicle," Ryan said. "Moving out of mom and dad's house and getting a new home is a goal for many of our younger employees, and it makes us happy to help them achieve this. We look to develop them as young men and women and watch them grow.
"Additionally, younger employees want to know the work they're doing means something," he continued. "At MSP, we have a forward-thinking environment. Our management team is open to changes. We know how important it is to engage our younger generation and all employees, for that matter. We ask their opinions on the company and our daily operations. We use a system called, 'TINYpulse,' which enables our team to give feedback on various topics in the workplace. It gives them an anonymous platform to give us feedback."
Tualatin, Oregon-based Reitmeier HVAC Services created its own certified training program to help attract new employees. Reitmeier University is a two-year continuing education program for training and certifying new employees in commercial HVAC services. The program was established in 2015 and features first- and second-year courses, which consist of five students each. The program is led by Reitmeier's educational director, a technician, and an accredited instructor.
"The program includes both classroom instruction and a mentorship program where the apprentice works in the field with a senior-level technician," said Robyn Benedetti, vice president of operations at Reitmeier. "The education includes the technical information students will need to have, but it also teaches our culture and values. The curriculum is all online. Students are in class for two hours one day a week, and the rest of the time, they're in the field with a mentor."
Reitmeier decided to make the curriculum accessible online because millennials prefer online communication, such as text messaging, but also because the company is working towards becoming completely paperless.
Additionally, the contracting company encourages employee satisfaction through leadership development book clubs, smart and measurable goal-setting based on positions, a safety incentive program, and an HVAC bulletin board, where praise from customers is displayed.
"We rolled out a better interactive safety incentive program — the Red Flag Recognition Program — in January of last year," said Benedetti. "We laugh about this as a red flag usually indicates a negative occurrence. So, we put a flip on it. Employees receive a Reitmeier hard hat, and, when someone demonstrates safe behavior, he or she is awarded a sticker for their hard hat [similar to NFL sport teams]. It's not only an acknowledgement of that employee's contribution to safety, but, after receiving a set number of hard-hat stickers, the employee receives a $25 gift card of their choice.
"We also have an HVAC bulletin board, which stands for 'Helpful, Valuable, Awesome Crew,'" she continued. "When compliments [safety, friendliness, courteous driver, etc.] of any sort come in about employees, they're hung on the board for everyone to see. At the end of the year, during our team celebration, we award the top recipient with the prestigious Reitmeier's HVAC Award. The employee's name is placed on a plaque and he or she receives an award, which sometimes includes cash."
CREATING A CO-OP
When Brian Hooper, vice president of operations at MSI Mechanical Systems Inc. in Salem, New Hampshire, was having difficulty finding new employees to meet the demand in his market, he looked into creating a co-op program with a local high school to train young talent.
"We tried using want ads, monster.com, and HVAC recruiters, but what I found was, the people who were available were available for a reason," Hooper said. "They all seemed to jump from one company to another.
"We've had the most success hiring kids fresh out of high school. That was the only way to find someone who hadn't been trained the wrong way and didn't have bad habits."
MSI reached out to its largest client, EMC Corp. in Hopkinton, Massachusetts, and then looked around at surrounding vocational schools.
"We needed a customer base where if we did bring high school kids on, it would have to be close to where they live because, a lot of the times, they're driving a junk block or getting a ride from somebody to work," Hooper explained. "They don't have a dependable vehicle themselves. You can find a really good student, but, if he can't get there because it's too far, he's not going to come. Then we went to Blackstone Valley Regional Vocational Technical High School and asked administrators if they would be willing to start a co-op for HVAC, electrical, and plumbing. They were excited to learn there was a huge demand for jobs in those areas, so when students graduated, they could find placement. We worked with teachers and built the program."
Each year, MSI interviews three junior-level students and chooses one to participate in the two-year program. The student works the rest of his junior year, through the summer, and up until senior year graduation. If the student works out, Hooper offers him or her a full-time job with MSI upon graduation. After 11 years of operation, he's hired seven full-time employees from the program.
"Right off the bat, they have to have almost perfect attendance and a letter of recommendation from the teacher," Hooper said. "The third thing they must have is good grades. A lot of people think grades should be the only intangible, but I don't care how great academically a student is if he or she's always late or absent. We take the top three and conduct interviews at EMC. Legally, we can't hire these students until March of their junior years, so every year, we interview students in their junior years to get ready for the March start date."
The program allows a student to alternate between one week in school and one week on the job.
"My service manager likes it because he can plan work for the whole week," Hooper noted. "Some programs release students at 2 p.m., and you might have them for an hour and a half. Massachusetts does it this way, which I love, because it allows students to grasp what it's like to go to work every day. That means going to bed early, getting up in the morning, being on time, and planning their day. It's a real job. When students leave at 2 p.m. in other programs, they don't get that same experience. This way, it teaches them how to manage their time, which is a big part of becoming an adult and entering the real world."
Students are supervised by an MSI employee at all times while on the job, Hooper explained. "They work in our maintenance division, usually with the high school student who graduated the year before. They connect in a way I can't, as they talk the same lingo — they're on Instagram and Snapchat — they're in that whole world where I have no idea what's going on. They replace filters, clean coils in the spring, change belts, tighten and grease fittings, check filters, and do all the maintenance work. It's very cheesy work, but it's work that needs to be done. And, we actually give our customers a discounted rate when we have a co-op student working with us, which they love."
Hooper said the biggest challenge is keeping new millennial employees satisfied so they don't leave for other jobs.
"There's no real guarantee. You try to pay them well and make them realize the importance of working for a reputable company, but, with the new generation, to be honest, this is difficult, because many of these individuals are most focused on 'What can you do for me today?' One former student of mine left to go to a union shop because he could earn more there. Another student left to start his own company. But, considering everything, I think we have a very good retention rate."
Hooper is working to continue the success of MSI's program into New Hampshire, as well. However, New Hampshire releases students at 2 p.m., so Hooper has been working with state representatives to see if he can get some of the rules and regulations changed.
"This program works because everyone is happy," he said. "The students are happy because they are getting job experience, the school is happy because we're giving the students jobs, the customers are happy because they're getting a discounted rate, and I'm happy because I'm getting a workforce that's getting stronger every day. It works out for everyone involved."

Q: Handling Custom Event in Class from Form I am having problems attempting to handle an event I have created.  I am attempting to use WebSockets, and when I receive a message, I want to raise an event that one of my forms can subscribe to.
In my Form_Load Event. I have:
taskRoutingServer = new Core.WebSocketServerWrapper();
taskRoutingServer.MessageReceivedEvent +=
TaskRoutingServer_MessageReceivedEvent1;

The method in my form looks like:
private void TaskRoutingServer_MessageReceivedEvent1(object sender, WebSocketSharp.MessageEventArgs e)
{
    throw new NotImplementedException();
}

I intend to handle and work with 'e' which will contain the data that my form needs to work with.  The WebSocket class I have looks like this:
public class WebSocketServerWrapper : WebSocketBehavior
{
  private WebSocketServer socketServer;
  public delegate void MessageReceivedEventHandler(object sender, MessageEventArgs e);
  public event MessageReceivedEventHandler MessageReceivedEvent;
  public string creator;

  public WebSocketServerWrapper()
  {
      socketServer = new WebSocketServer("ws://localhost:9001");
      socketServer.AddWebSocketService<WebSocketServerWrapper>("/ws");
  }

  public bool IsListening()
  {
      return socketServer.IsListening;
  }

  public void StartListening()
  {
      socketServer.Start();
  }

  public void StopListening()
  {
      socketServer.Stop();
  }

  protected override void OnMessage(MessageEventArgs e)
  {
      //invoke event
      MessageReceivedEvent?.Invoke(this, e);
  }
}

The behavior currently is that OnMessage fires but MessageReceivedEvent is null, so the event is not invoked.  How should I handle this event correctly?

A: MessageReceivedEvent should not be null at this point:
MessageReceivedEvent?.Invoke(this, e);

when you've added a listener to it, which you wrote you did in OnLoad:
taskRoutingServer.MessageReceivedEvent += TaskRoutingServer_MessageReceivedEvent1;

This probably means that you are either

*

*not firing the event on the same instance (the taskRoutingMessage object in onLoad), or

*you've removed the listener at some point.

If "WebSocketBehaviour" is somehow being automatically created by the framework it will not be the same instance. Then you could try to use a static eventhandler:
    public static event MessageReceivedEventHandler MessageReceivedEvent;

    protected override void OnMessage(MessageEventArgs e)
    {
        MessageReceivedEvent?.Invoke(this, e);
    }

...and set it like this in load:
Core.WebSocketServerWrapper.MessageReceivedEvent +=
                              TaskRoutingServer_MessageReceivedEvent1;


Yesterday, Andy posted his response to an article from ZDNet, that addressed the digital divide that could occur (and to some extent is occurring all ready) when libraries die due to everyone going all electronic and ebooks and ereaders taking over the world. While the digital divide is something interesting that should (and probably will) be addressed at another time, I want to focus on the first part.
Last summer I attended a session on Library 2.0 at the American Libraries Association's annual conference. One of the speakers brought up an interesting point about how the library is dying. At first, I really disagreed with him. Library stats are on the rise, especially in this not-so-great economy, right? People are discovering it's more economical to check out a book than to buy one, right? I read someplace the other day that libraries lend more movies than Netflix! So things are okay?
Well, if libraries are dying then doesn't that mean people aren't reading? One only has to look Amazon's revenue to know that isn't the case. Books are still being read, they are just being bought at low prices. Clearly, ebooks are becoming a huge market, because those numbers are pretty incredible. So if people are reading and watching movies, why are libraries on the decline?
The problem for libraries is that our society is lazy. We've gotten used to Amazon (or your choice of book vender) delivering the book to your front door or to your ereader. People aren't thinking they can hop over to the local public library to find an old movie to watch tonight; they prefer to wait for Netflix to drop in their mailbox rather than leave the house. No one thinks about the resources of your local public college or university, instead they jump on Google and find the Wikipedia page for whatever research they need to complete. Who is thinking that the library is a great place to go to find the latest Wii game?
If we step back for a minute and really think, circulation numbers are high enough that, even in the light of all this digital awareness and laziness, enough people are going to the library and taking advantage of all the free stuff. So libraries, at least the check-out-books-and-movies part of libraries, aren't going to die any time soon.
The real question is, however, is anyone using the library for information? Why go to the library and ask a reference librarian when you can find the answer to your question on Google? Why bother leaving your dorm room when everything you need to write your paper can be found online? Even in my hospital library, I see this. More often than not, my users do their searching via Google and then ask if I can find these really random obscure journal articles because that's the results Google yielded them. Instead of doing the smart thing and using PubMed (or even Google Scholar!), they are taking the easy path to information.
So what can we, as librarians, do to prevent the death of the library in the face of all the free online information (regardless of the quality) and sheer laziness that has taken over our society? Is the death of the library preventable or are we just waiting the inevitable?
I don't know the answer to this question. We've all been thinking about it, talking about it, and blogging about it, but no has the answer, and no one probably ever will until the end is upon us. Or we will never answer the question because the library is still alive and kicking.
Right now I believe the best option to prevent the death of our own libraries is to advertise what you have. Let the people in your community know what's out there and how they can take advantage of it.
Have a great collection of genealogy records that no one uses? Speak to a local group about sponsoring a "find an ancestor" day or something to that effect in your town. Publicize the event to the extreme via your website, your blog, your Twitter, whatever you use. Don't have an updated website, a person to blog, or a Twitter account? No fear, this is the perfect opportunity to establish one. But even the best websites, most insightful/informative blogs and Tweets go unnoticed if you don't advertise them. Make sure everything that carries your library's name on it has your website. Make sure your website is clearly labeled and consistently updated with news and events. Create a facebook page; anything to get your name out there and people in your library.
Tons of people don't use the public library because they don't know what's available to them. I bet there are a lot of people in your community who don't know they can check out video games or schedule a personal research consultation. They probably forgot that you have a ton of books/articles/magazines on job hunting, resume writing, and interviewing techniques. More than likely, there are a good number of elderly in the community who want to get online, but don't know how. They aren't aware that you teach (or could if you had enough people sign up) free classes about using the computer and the Internet.
Special and academic libraries have their own ways of advertising and attracting new users. They probably have less to worry about because someone has to stay around to order, pay, and organize all those electronic resources, but getting out into the community, whether it's a local community college, major research institution, law firm, hospital, or whatever (the possibilities are endless!), and promoting your services are the best way to get new people into the library while still continuing to provide excellent service to your current users.
Do you think the library is dying? What are you doing to prevent it?
A good post, Elizabeth, and a good start to further discussion.
The short answer I have for using the library over online: it's local. Google can map your town, tell you the businesses within it, show you pictures, but I as the local librarian can tell you about the people within. There are unique non-digitized holdings that I have access to that would otherwise not be found. I have the local knowledge, the lay of the land, and can put you in contact with other people. You won't find that online.
I like your approach to marketing the library, but it misses in one way: websites, Facebook, and Twitter (and so forth) won't work unless your community is there. Press releases and stories in the local paper, local radio, flyers, pamphlets, and word of mouth are also good viable means to reach people. You have to meet the patrons where they are at in media. It's not that those things that you listed are bad in any way, but there are some very nice low tech options as well.
Building a relationship requires communicating with your community. How that communication happens is another story, but one as a librarian that you have to find out.

US President Donald Trump (F), with White House chief of staff Reince Pribus (L), counselor to the President Kellyanne Conway (2L), White House Communications Director Hope Hicks (3L), Senior Advisor Jared Kushner (2R) and Senior Counselor Stephen Bannon (R), signs one of five executive orders related to the oil pipeline industry in the oval office of the White House in Washington, DC, US, January 24, 2017.
US President Donald Trump signed on January 24 Executive Orders to expedite the controversial Keystone XL and Dakota Access oil pipelines that have stalled under the Obama Administration. Native American tribes and environmental activists have blocked the projects earlier and promised to fight the decisions through legal action.
"Signing orders to move forward with the construction of the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines in the Oval Office," Trump tweeted.
The US President's move is part of a series of Executive Orders and Presidential Memoranda in keeping with his promise to reduce the burden of regulations and expedite high priority energy and infrastructure projects that will create jobs and increase national security, the White House said in a press release.
"With this Presidential Memorandum, President Trump will help fulfill the campaign promise of initiating the process for approving the Keystone XL Pipeline," the White House said.
The Keystone XL Pipeline is a 1,770-kilometre crude oil pipeline to connect oil production in Alberta, Canada to refineries in the United States.
The Trump Administration claimed that construction and operation of the Keystone XL Pipeline, as well as oil production and refining activities related to it, would create tens of thousands of jobs for American workers, enhance the country's energy security, support affordable and reliable energy for American families, and generate significant State and local tax revenues that can be invested in schools, hospitals, and infrastructure.
Trump also directed the relevant Federal agencies, including the Army Corps of Engineers, to expedite reviews and approvals for the remaining portions of the Dakota Access Pipeline, a $3.8 billion, 1,770-kilometre pipeline designed to carry around 500,000 barrels per day of crude oil from the Bakken and Three Forks oil production areas in North Dakota to oil markets in the US.
The White House noted that at this time, DAPL is more than 90% complete across its entire route. "Only a limited stretch of the project is not yet constructed. Timely review and approval of energy pipelines is critical to a strong economy, energy independence, and national security," the White House claimed.
Trump also directed the Secretary of Commerce, in consultation with all relevant executive departments and agencies, to develop a plan under which all new pipelines, as well as retrofitted, repaired, or expanded pipelines, inside US borders, including portions of pipelines, use materials and equipment produced in the US, to the maximum extent possible and to the extent permitted by law, the White House said.


Ken Shaw Lexus | Frequently Asked Questions | Service faq | How Do I Change The Car Battery In My Lexus?
Even with all of the advances so far in technology, there are currently no car batteries that are capable of lasting forever. Little things to pay attention to are the dimming of your headlights, how old the battery in your Lexus is, and whether or not your Lexus has needed a jump-start. If these apply to your Lexus, then maybe it's time to get a new battery. Ideally, you should bring your Lexus to a trusted and experienced Lexus precision service mechanic, but if the situation calls for you to change the battery in your Lexus yourself, here are some rules that you should follow. Changing a Lexus battery is quick and easy, and it can also generally be done with only the minimum amount of tool.
Look for a blue or whitish residue build-up around the terminal – removing this residue can sometimes solve common issues. Note: Do not touch the residue powder with your hands since it can often contains the dried form of sulfuric acid, which is extremely corrosive to skin.
Verify that the battery has fully been given the chance to recharge by going for a 30 minute drive with no stops. Electronics should also be turned off, including the stereo system, air conditioner, etc.
Take a look at the alternator. If your Lexus model also has a battery meter, while the engine is running the charge maintained by the alternator should be about 13.8 – 14.2 volts if the system is functioning properly. With the engine turned off and no accessory load, the battery should be showing a charge of about 12.4 – 12.8.
If you do need to replace the battery in your Lexus, it is essential that you choose the correct one for the vehicle. Some retailers will require that a "core" charge is paid if you do not bring the old battery in with you.
Park on a level, flat surface that is a safe distance from open flames or traffic sparks. Engage the parking brake. Properly outfit yourself with gloves and also safety goggles. Unplug the cigarette lighter and plug the memory keeper back in. If you have misplaced the memory keeper, take note of all the electronic PIN's that may be affected.
Find the location of the battery on your Lexus. It will be on either side of the frame and is shaped like a rectangle with two cables that are attached to it.
Find the battery terminals. The terminal with a plus + sign is the positive terminal, and the terminal with the negative – sign is the negative terminal.
Disconnect the negative terminal in your Lexus. It will slide off easily if the negative clamp has been loosened with wrench. It is essential to disconnect the negative before the positive so that no short circuits occur.
Disconnect the positive terminal next.
Pull out the old battery and put the new one in its place. Reconnect the terminals– positive first, then negative second.
Thoroughly tighten the terminal clamps with a wrench.
Firmly shut the hood and then start your Lexus.
Check to ensure that all devices are working properly, especially electronics.
Properly dispose of the old battery according to the by-laws in Toronto.
If you are not comfortable with the battery changing procedure and do not wish to do it yourself, call Ken Shaw Lexus in Toronto and let our Lexus precision service staff take care of the problem for you.

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) is used by licensed psychologists and psychiatrists to diagnose mental health disorders. The DSM-5 categorizes disruptive, impulse control, and conduct disorders as mental illness affecting a person's ability to regulate their emotions and behaviors. Kleptomania Disorders in this category can also include those with impulse and behavioral control and problems with authority.
What is Kleptomania?
Kleptomania is an impulse control disorder characterized by the inability to resist the impulse to steal. Often the objects that are stolen are not needed, and often times have no significant monitory value. While it is considered normal to have the occasional impulse to steal or to think about the consequences if you were to steal, kleptomania sufferers have these thoughts frequently and are consistently unable to resist the urges.
Symptoms of Kleptomania
The DSM-5 states that Kleptomania is hallmarked by ever-increasing tension leading up to the theft, and an intense feeling of gratification or relief after. While kleptomania does cause strong impulses to steal, these thieving events are not triggered or accompanied by hallucinations or feelings of anger or vengeance.
Despite the strong urges to engage in thievery, those diagnosed with kleptomania are generally able to refrain from illegal activities if there is a significant and immediate likelihood of consequences, such as the presence of security guards, policemen, or cameras. Individuals with kleptomania are typically aware of the morality of their actions, and will readily agree that it is wrong to steal. Kleptomaniacs often report feeling guilty during and after thieving instances, and are often fearful of consequences.
Kleptomania typically follows one of three patterns of stealing:
brief episodes of stealing with intermittent and long periods of remission
longer periods of stealing with brief periods of remission
chronic and continuous episodes of stealing with only minor fluctuation in frequency
What are the Causes of Kleptomania?
There appears to be a relationship between key neurotransmitter pathways, including systems related to depression (serotonin and dopamine) and behavioral addiction (via the opioid system). There is also a potential relationship between kleptomania and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and substance abuse. Kleptomania is a rare disorder, and is only diagnosed in 0.3-0.6% of the population, and there are 3 females for every 1 male diagnosed, which means that this disorder is mainly diagnosed in women.
Onset of Kleptomania
Kleptomania most often manifests itself during adolescence, but may also be present in childhood, adulthood, and in rare cases, late adulthood.
Co-morbidity of Kleptomania
Kleptomania is often co-diagnosed with anxiety disorders, eating disorders, bipolar disorders and other depressive disorders, personality disorders, substance abuse, compulsive buying disorders, and, of course, other disruptive, impulse control, and conduct disorders.
When considering suicidal behavior in individuals diagnosed with kleptomania, the impact of co-morbid diagnoses and overall functional impairment has played an almost insignificant role in suicidal ideation, with one study showing 92.3% of suicide attempts in these patients to be directly attributed to kleptomania. However, it is still important for people with kleptomania to seek help in order to improve life quality.
Diagnosis of Kleptomania
Diagnosis of kleptomania is often based on a combination of patient reports, diagnostic scales, and legal records of thieving. It is important that kleptomania be distinguished from ordinary acts of shoplifting, from other disorders, such as antisocial personality disorder, conduct disorder, manic, psychotic, or major neurocognitive disorders.
When using psychometric scales to diagnose kleptomania, it is useful to consider the results of the Yale Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale, Modified for Kleptomania (K-YBOCS) and the Kleptomania Symptom Assessment Scale (K-SAS). Though kleptomania with a lesser severity of symptoms may not affect global functioning, severe kleptomania symptoms may be correlated with deficits in executive functioning, and therefore measures that include executive functioning may be useful in the clinical setting (Grant, Odlaug, & Wozniak, 2007).
Treatment of Kleptomania
Kleptomania often responds best to a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy, with an emphasis on recognizing and coping with the urges related to kleptomania, and the use of psychopharmacology. Lithium, anti-epileptics, and opioid antagonists have proven effective in controlling the urge to steal faced by those with kleptomania, and the use of antidepressants may ease the common feelings of shame and self-loathing that accompany this disorder (Grant & Odlaug, 2008).
There is strong supporting evidence that naltrexone, an opioid receptor antagonist used in the management of alcohol and opioid dependence, may lead to statistically significant reductions in K-YBOCS scores, as well as reported urges to steal and the resulting stealing behavior (Grant, Kim, & Odlaug, 2009).
Additionally, there is evidence that some sub-types of kleptomania may be more similar to obsessive-compulsive disorder than was previously thought, responding well to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), while other subtypes more closely resemble mood disorders and addiction, responding to mood stabilizers such as lithium (Grant, 2006) Memantine, a medication typically used in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, may be surprisingly effective in improving the overall symptoms of kleptomania.
For individuals with kleptomania subtypes with co-diagnoses of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and/or personality disorders, selective case studies have shown that a combination of dialectical behavioral therapy combined with duloxetine as a serotonin-epinepherine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) may be an effecting treatment strategy (Rudel, Hubert, Juckel, & Edel, 2009).
Outcomes for Kleptomania
In one study that considered 101 individuals diagnosed with kleptomania, 68.3% had been arrested, 36.6% arrested but not convicted, 10.9% convicted buy not incarcerated, and 20.8% had been arrested, convicted, and incarcerated following their crimes (Grant, Odlaug, Davis, & Kim, 2009). As such, the legal and social consequences of kleptomania are significant, and there is a great need for extensive research into treatment strategies to help prevent kleptomaniacs from continuing to relapse into thieving behaviors.
Individuals diagnosed with kleptomania should strongly consider remaining in a cognitive behavioral treatment program, as well as working with a psychiatrist to determine whether any of the available psychopharmaceutic medications may be of use to them. I use multi-modal treatment methodology which involves a combination of expertise in psychopharmacology (medical treatment – if needed) with psychotherapy. I emphasize a strong belief in the additive effect of various treatment modalities to work in conjunction rather than simply prescribing medication. For more information, feel free to contact us.

A new study from mit has shown that the ancient ponds (or large puddles) can provide a suitable environment for breeding the first forms of life on Earth — it is the ponds, not oceans as previously thought. According to scientists, shallow water with a depth of about 10 centimeters, can contain a high concentration of what scientists believe was a key ingredient for the emergence of life on Earth: nitrogen.
How life first appeared on Earth?
In a shallow reservoir of nitrogen in the form of nitrogen oxides would have a good chance to accumulate in sufficient quantity for reaction with other compounds and the creation of the first living organisms. In a much deeper oceans nitrogen would be more difficult to establish a significant presence, catalyzing life.
"Our General message is that if you think that the origin of life required fixed nitrogen, as many think, then life would be extremely difficult to emerge in the ocean," says lead author Sukrit a Ranjan, a postdoc Department of Earth Sciences, atmosphere and planetary science at the Massachusetts Institute of technology. "It would be much easier to appear in the pond".
The Ranjan and his colleagues published the results of their work in the journal Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems.
Part one: how to make a cage?
Part five: so how is it to create the jail?
If primitive life really arose as a result of key reactions involving nitrogen, according to the scientists, this could happen in two ways. The first hypothesis involves the deep ocean, where nitrogen in the form of nitrous oxide could react with carbon dioxide released from hydrothermal vents, with the formation of the first molecular building blocks of life.
The second hypothesis on the origin of life, based on nitrogen, includes RNA — RNA, or a molecule that helps to encode our genetic information. In its primitive form the RNA was probably free-floating molecule. Some scientists believe that when in contact with nitrous oxides RNA could chemically to form a first molecular chain of life. This process of formation of RNA could occur either in the oceans or in shallow lakes and ponds.
Nitrogen oxides were probably deposited in water bodies, including oceans and ponds, as remnants of the decay of nitrogen in the Earth's atmosphere. Atmospheric nitrogen consists of two nitrogen molecules related to the strong triple bond, which can destroy only extremely energetically powerful event — lightning.
"Lightning is similar to the explosion of a very powerful bomb," says Ranjan. "It produces enough energy to break the triple bond in our atmospheric gaseous nitrogen to produce nitrous oxides, which can then get into the water".
Scientists believe that the early atmosphere could be enough lightning to produce an abundance of nitrogen oxides that contribute to the origin of life in the ocean. The Ranjan said that scientists have assumed that the stock of nitrogen oxides were relatively stable after the introduction of compounds in the oceans.
But a new study he identifies two significant "discharge funnel" — that is, effects that could destroy a significant portion of the nitrogen oxides, particularly in the oceans. He and his colleagues reviewed the scientific literature and found that nitrogen oxides in water can be destroyed in the interaction with UV light of the sun, and also with the dissolved iron released from the primitive ocean species.
The Ranjan said that as ultraviolet radiation and dissolved iron could destroy a significant portion of the nitrogen oxides in the ocean, sending connections back to the atmosphere as gaseous nitrogen.
"We have shown that if you consider these two new craters, which no one thought before, the concentration of nitrogen oxides in the ocean will be reduced 1000 times compared to what people expected before," says Ranjan.
If we talk about the ocean, ultraviolet light and dissolved iron would make nitrogen-containing oxides are much less available for the synthesis of living organisms. However, in the shallow waters of life would be the best chance to stay afloat. Partly because ponds have much smaller volume in which to dissolve the contents. As a result, nitrogen oxides accumulate to much higher concentrations in ponds. Any "funnels" in the UV light and dissolved iron would have a smaller impact on the total concentration of the compound.
The Ranjan said that the smaller the pond, the greater the likelihood that nitric oxide will interact with other molecules, in particular RNA, for catalysis of the first living organisms.
"These ponds could be the depth of 10-100 cm with a surface area of tens of square meters or more," says Ranjan.
It may seem that it's a puddle, not a pond — but in this sense: in a deeper environment of nitrous oxides would just be too diluted, which would exclude any involvement in the chemistry of the origin of life. According to the estimates of other groups, about 3.9 billion years ago, shortly before the first signs of life on Earth, all over the world may have been about 500 square kilometers of small lakes and ponds.
"This is very little compared with the number of lakes that we have today," says Ranjan. "However, for the beginning of life this is enough".
The debate about whether life originated in pools or oceans continues, but the Ranjan believes that the new research presents compelling evidence in favor of the first.

Николай Фёдорович Костин (, ) — украинский советский хозяйственный деятель, мэр Винницы (1991—1992).

Биография
Родился в крестьянской семье в селе Арбеньевка, Мучкапский район Тамбовской области РСФСР (ныне — Российская Федерация).
В 1954 году окончил местную 7-классную школу. Переехал в Киев, где учился в профессионально-техническом училище и в 1958 году получил специальность техника-механика.

В 1962 году поступил в Днепропетровский химико-технологический институт, но позже был переведён в Винницкий филиал КПИ. Также учился в политехническом институте в Харькове. Полное высшее образование получил в 1978 году на факультете экономики Киевского торгово-экономического института, по специальности экономист.

В 1958 году был направлен в Винницу, где начал работать на винницком кирпичном заводе № 22-23 мастером. В 1958—1961 годах служил в рядах советской армии. Поочередно работал слесарем, инженером на различных предприятиях Винницы, в частности на Винницком заводе радиотехнического оборудования.

Был инженером-технологом, заместителем генерального директора регионального производственного объединения строительных материалов. С июля 1982 года — глава Исполнительного комитета Ленинского районного совета Народных депутатов Винницы, впоследствии первый секретарь Ленинского района (1989) и глава (1990).

Характеризовался как стремившийся к знаниям, постоянному самосовершенствованию, требовательный, ответственный за дело, энергичный работник.

В январе 1991 года занял пост мэра Винницы, избранный демократически общим голосованием жителей. В июне 1991 года им было подписано официальное соглашение с британским городом Петерборо, который стал городом-побратимом Винницы.

По состоянию здоровья в мае 1992 года добровольно сложил полномочия мэра. Впоследствии был депутатом Винницкого городского совета восемь созывов.

В период 1992—2000 годов был первым руководителем недавно созданного Винницкого областного отделения пенсионного фонда Украины. В годы работы он получил высокий авторитет компетентного, опытного, мудрого лидера и искреннего патриота своего государства.

Николай Костин был награжден рядом государственных и городских наград, включая медали «За трудовую доблесть» (1971), «Ветеран труда» (1984), «За значительный вклад в развитие города» (2009) и почётный знак мэра (2019).

Винница стала родным городом для Николая Костина. В 1962 году он женился, у супругов Николая Фёдоровича и Лидии Григорьевны родился сын Игорь, в будущем он станет военным, а в 1969 году — дочь Ирина, которая станет учителем. Впоследствии семья пополнилась пятью внуками.

В молодые годы Костин был активным участником игр КВН в Виннице и автором ряда поэтических произведений, в частности гимна футбольной команды «Нива» (Винница). На пенсии стал литератором, писал стихи

22 марта 2021 года умер в Виннице от осложнений, вызванных заболеванием коронавирусом.

She's passionate about the impact social media can have on business success.
Growing up, I was the only child until not so recently (13 years ago), when my family decided to have another two boys. This really helped me grow and has shaped me into who I am today. In a short time, I learnt to be more compassionate, to take charge when required and to be highly resilient.
At that time, I really needed to step up – which lead me to NAB. NAB gave me an opportunity eight years ago. First, I worked in front lines roles while I studied at university and then eventually became one of the first people to work in social media at NAB.
Sometimes businesses don't understand social media or realise the benefits and positive impact that it can have on their business. Over the last year or so, I have helped over 1,000 small to medium size businesses realise the potential of social media through hosting tours of the Social Media Command Centre at NAB. My advice has helped them shape their strategy and improve their online presence.
I am passionate about helping businesses with their online presence, creating content that matters and having the analytics to measure the impact. I am really lucky to be working in a role that I am passionate about. Other than social media, I am definitely a thrill seeker. I enjoy long complex hikes, snowboarding and bike riding.
She spent six weeks volunteering in The Kimberley.

Indians Pursing an Elk
Generously provided by Stark Museum of Art
In this scene, Miller pictures a dramatic moment when, "after an exciting chase over the prairies, the Indian hunters have at length driven the Elk just where they would like to have him"—in the Platte River. But it is a fleeting opportunity, for if they do not reach him before he gets to the other side, he will escape. And, "even in the water he is a dangerous customer," Miller warned, "for he has a trick of using his long horns to great advantage, and keeping his enemies at bay."
This painting may be the sketch for an unlocated picture that Miller sold to one of his clients in 1849, rather than a scene that he encountered on his trip. (CR# 374A)
