Netflix Goes Where No Customer Service Has Gone Before
Brian Patrick Eha
October 14, 2013 2 min read
A Netflix user who experienced a glitch while watching a popular sitcom found help and humor recently in the form of a customer-service representative who adopted the persona of a Star Fleet captain from Star Trek.
The user, Norm, contacted customer service after an episode of Parks and Recreation became caught in a "temporal loop," replaying three seconds of footage over and over. At first he simply told the rep that he had a problem to report, but when the rep introduced himself as "[Captain] Mike of the good ship Netflix," Norm decided to play along. He identified himself as a lieutenant, and said, "Engineering has a problem to report."
The two continued to roleplay while going through the details of the glitch, including whether or not other episodes or TV shows were affected. Norm also expressed existential concerns. "Worst of all, Captain... the dialogue... It looped over Councilwoman Knope saying, "This is real life... This is real life... This is real life..." WHAT DOES IT MEAN???" he wrote.
"That is a horrible place to get stuck," the rep said.
Mike's offbeat approach resulted in the "best customer service experience I think I have ever had," said Norm. Other companies could take a lesson from Netflix. Ditching the pre-written script can make customers happier than robotic customer-service protocols ever will.

Jailed Again
I've spent about a year in either county jails or federal prisons in my lifetime, all for nonviolent direct actions on issues like war and peace, racial justice and climate justice. 11 months of that year were in 1970 and 1971 for a "Catholic Left" action at the Rochester, NY federal building during the Vietnam war.
My latest time behind bars, the 19th time I've been arrested, was three weeks ago. I was removed from a US Senate hearing room on Capitol Hill in DC and charged with resisting arrest and obstructing passage during a hearing of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee. I stood up and spoke out in opposition to the two fossil fuel industry-connected nominees put forward by Trump to be in the leadership of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, or FERC. FERC is a rubber stamp agency for the methane gas industry.
I ended up in custody of Capitol Police, DC Metro Police and US Marshals from 10 am June 6 to 6 pm June 7. Between 10 am and 10 pm on the 6th I was given three baloney and cheese sandwiches on white bread. From 10 pm on the 6th to 6 pm on the 7th I was given no food. The same was true for the 70 or so guys in lock-up with me for much of that time. The vast majority of those men were young and African American, in for things like not paying a bus fare, alleged domestic violence, drugs or robbery.
Central Cell Block, where I was held the first day, wasn't a very nice place. We all slept on a metal slab with no mattress, pillow, sheet or blanket. Throughout the day and night there were loud metallic sounds either from individuals on drugs and/or with emotional problems hitting the metal walls or because the metal slabs we slept on would make that sound when people got on or off them. There was a toilet and water fountain in each cell. Most of us had a roommate to share the 8 x 6 foot space, about 6 x 3 feet of move-around room because of the space taken up by the metal slabs and toilet.
Early on the morning of the 7th we were transported to the rooms underneath the courthouse where we were to be arraigned in the afternoon. For most of the morning the 70 of us were locked up in one room together. In addition to being locked in the room, each of us was hobbled with leg chains.
About 12:30 we were moved to several other rooms that turned out to be right below the actual arraignment courtroom. In addition to the leg chains, we were handcuffed and our handcuffs were attached to a chain put around our waist.
In other words, our bodies were locked in holding cells; our feet were chained; our hands were cuffed, and we could hardly use them because they were locked to a waist chain. You'd think that we were a group of murderers about to attack one another.
We actually got along OK throughout the day, with the exception of one guy who clearly had some anger issues who was removed by the marshals to somewhere else because of the verbal hostility he was venting toward another prisoner. Otherwise, there was a lot of normal human interaction among us.
It was striking to see the big role the US Marshals were playing in arraignment court. I've never before seen them so omnipresent in a court setting. It wasn't just the large numbers—maybe 25-30 of them—who were involved with the custody of us 70 or so guys at certain points, like when they put handcuffs and waist chains on us. It was also their role in the courtroom when I finally got up there at 6, the last person brought before the judge. At least two US Marshals were playing the role of court clerks sitting next to the judge, in addition to others moving prisoners into and out of court. I wonder when this arrangement started, sure seemed to be feds-heavy to me.
Jail can be hard, as these two days were, but I always come away from jail experiences feeling more knowledgeable. I am reminded of the realities of life for other people, particularly low-income people of color dealing with racism and class oppression, and in the police/jail/courts/prison system, and this is a good thing.

BOULDER, CO -- (Marketwire) -- 10/18/12 -- Dynamic Materials Corporation (DMC) (NASDAQ: BOOM) today announced it will combine the worldwide operations of its Explosive Metalworking business under its venerable Nobelclad brand. Operations uniting under the Nobelclad name are DMC Clad Metal in North America, Dynaplat in Germany, Nobelclad in France, as well as the segment's global sales and marketing organization.
The rebranding program is designed to unify DMC's family of collaborative cladding facilities under a single, recognized moniker. Nobelclad originated in the mid 1960s as one of the world's first commercial explosion welding operations, which was based in Rivesaltes, France. The name paid homage to the forefather of commercial explosives, Alfred Nobel, who patented dynamite in 1867 and founded one of Nobelclad's predecessor companies. The Nobelclad business was acquired by DMC in 2001.
"Nobelclad has been a respected name in the explosion-welding industry for more than four decades," said Yvon Cariou, DMC's president and CEO. "As we continue our push into new industrial end markets and proceed with our expansion in Asia, we will do so under a singular long-standing brand that is associated with the highest quality products and solutions available in the explosion welding sector."
DMC also announced that Jeff Nicol has been promoted to senior vice president and general manager of the worldwide DMC Nobelclad business. Nicol, who operates out of the Company's headquarters in Boulder, was previously vice president and general manager of DMC Clad Metal in North America, and joined the Company in 2008 as the segment's vice president of sales and marketing. Previously, he spent 21 years with Alcoa, where he ascended to chief metallurgist and global marketing director.
"Since joining the Company four years ago, Jeff has become an authority on the global cladding industry and the markets that utilize our products," Cariou said. "Jeff is a talented and strategic leader, and he and our incoming CEO, Kevin Longe, have already established a strong working relationship. Kevin and I are looking forward to Jeff's expanded contributions as we collectively work to advance Nobelclad's growth initiatives."
About Dynamic Materials CorporationBased in Boulder, Colorado, Dynamic Materials Corporation serves a global network of customers in the energy, industrials and infrastructure markets through two core business segments -- Nobelclad Explosive Metalworking and Oilfield Products -- as well as a specialized industrial service provider, AMK Welding. The Explosive Metalworking segment is the world's largest manufacturer of explosion-welded clad metal plates, which are used to fabricate capital equipment utilized within various process industries and other industrial sectors.

Conversation with Prashanth V. of the Federation of Indian Animal Protection Organisations (FIAPO)
Last Updated: April, 2019
Prashanth V. is the Deputy Campaigns Director of FIAPO. He spoke with ACE Managing Editor Melissa Guzikowski on September 11, 2018. This is a summary of their conversation.
Please give me a brief summary of your work with FIAPO.
The Federation of Indian Animal Protection Organisations (FIAPO) currently has 117 members across the country. Our work includes wildlife conservation, the rescue and rehabilitation of farmed animals, and the protection of animals used in entertainment or for work. We engage in education and outreach, and we lobby state and local governments for animal protection in addition to running campaigns on issues of national importance.
Though we run a number of different campaigns, our main focus is on farmed animals. One of our longest running campaigns is called "Living Free", where we create networks of volunteers across the country and support their plant-based lifestyle outreach. In 2017, we launched our "End Exploitative Dairies" campaign, through which we lobby state governments to improve the conditions of animals in dairy farms. In addition, the "Stop Slaughter Cruelty" campaign is the third program we run that focuses on farmed animals. We expose the cruelty of the illegal slaughter industry with the help of our network of grassroots activists. Furthermore, we conduct investigations to demonstrate how the slaughter industry violates animal welfare laws. The campaign aims to pressure governments to enforce the rules that already exist for humane and legal slaughter of animals.
In addition, we also work directly with consumers and industry. For example, we have a campaign called "Don't Get Milked", which is an aggressive media campaign that encourages consumers to give up dairy and other animal products by creatively bringing to them the realities of the dairy industry. Our Corporate Outreach campaign works with companies to help them reduce their animal consumption and use alternatives to animal products. Through this campaign, we managed to establish India's first vegan food hub in Delhi.
Our campaign "Rabies Free India" aims to establish a positive relationship between people and street dogs. We do it through facilitating sterilizations, vaccination against rabies, education on bite prevention, counseling of bite victims and community care for street dogs. Alongside dogs, there are also a large number of bovine animals on the streets—the "Gaushala"1 campaign is aimed at improving cow shelters in India. We want to make sure that no bovine animal is abused by the dairy industry and is simply abandoned on the street, ending up in places which are unable to provide basic care for them.
Once every 18 months, we organize the "India For Animals Conference", where representatives from all of our 111 member organizations participate. The conference was held on October 2018, with a total of about 350 participants.
What kind of messaging do you think corporations are most receptive to in India?
Companies are motivated by profits. We have significant influence because we are the leading vegan advocacy group in India and influence a large number of people. We have data on the number of people who are changing their diets so we can show that plant-based food is a growing market. A few corporations have started to tap into this growing demand, but there is still huge opportunity to expand it. We work with corporations to help them increase their product range into vegan options and thus widen their customer base. At the same time, we persuade them to reduce their consumption of animal products as well.
Can you tell me about your request for more funds to be allocated to animal issues by the Animal Welfare Board of India?
India has good animal protection laws but they are implemented very poorly. There is limited awareness among the regulatory bodies and the government, although these institutions are ultimately responsible for enforcing the law. Since the main problem is implementation, we asked the Animal Welfare Board, a statutory body, to allocate more funds for the establishment of cow shelters, for strengthening animal birth control and vaccination programs, along with a number of other initiatives. We think that implementing and monitoring animal protection laws is the Animal Welfare Board's duty, together with other departments in the central and state governments.
How does the government respond to your requests?
Our investigations of the dairy industry were conducted in 10 different cities across the country. We then worked with governments at the local, state, and federal level. First, we demanded the passing of guidelines in the states where we had published investigations. After four or five months, we achieved this in seven states. We then had to go back to the local governments and lobby them to implement these guidelines. In addition, we have also started to put pressure on the central government to improve welfare laws.
Our success always depends on building strong relationships. It also helps to engage in outreach on social media and get the traditional media to cover our campaigns. We have built great relationships with a number of media outlets, which now cover animal concerns on a regular basis. Our strength lies within our network because our activists draw attention to our issues and exert influence. For those reasons, we invest a lot of time in mobilizing our network.
As a vegan organization, we firmly believe that animals should not be used for human consumption, entertainment, or labor. On the other hand, the law sometimes allows for animals to be utilized in these ways. Although we think that, for example, having a cow on a two-meter rope is as bad as having them on a one-meter rope, we advocate for incremental changes when in conversation with government institutions. Advocating in this way is acceptable to the government and has a chance of being successful. However, we are far more aggressive and direct when reaching out to the public or to our activists, and we always advocate for a plant-based lifestyle. We don't hold back in telling people how the industry harms animals and that consuming them for food, fashion, entertainment, etc. is not acceptable.
Do you focus mainly on ethical issues when encouraging people to change their diets?
When reaching out, we always start with the ethical argument. We portray animals as individuals with names and personalities in most of our materials. On a secondary note, we might also include health and other reasons for changing to a plant-based diet, because different people or groups have varying motivations. At a food festival, for example, ethical arguments make less sense than emphasizing how great vegan food tastes, and when negotiating with corporations, profits are the main talking point.
What impact do the restrictions on receiving foreign funding have on the animal advocacy movement in India?
In India, there always have been restrictions on foreign funding. For this reason, we have a system in place to ensure that we get the necessary permissions to receive funds from other countries. We make sure to have the relevant documents ready and always keep our revenue and expenditures up-to-date because the law authorizes the government to inspect our books. More funding definitely enables us to help animals in a more effective way. Above all, we need full-time, experienced staff in order to work professionally. When negotiating with companies, we definitely need a specialist with experience in lobbying and we are therefore willing to pay for their salary.
What are the greatest challenges to effective animal advocacy in India?
Our greatest challenge is to build and service our network of activists. It takes a lot of time and resources to maintain the network of activists that spread our messages.
The fact that the animal-based food industry is becoming more and more aggressive in their marketing is another big challenge. For some time now, it has been fashionable to consume a variety of animal products, although in India, meat is less of a problem than dairy products. The market conditions here are encouraging the expansion of the dairy industry so we are doing our best to fight this process. In one state, we were able to stop the construction of a mega dairy. However, we expect giant global food companies to enter the Indian market and establish new meat or dairy operations here. We need to be more aggressive in countering their marketing and the increase of animal-based products available to Indian consumers.
What are the most promising opportunities to reduce animal suffering in India?
Recently, we expanded the animal rights work in India to demanding the personhood of non-human animals be recognized. We have just started a campaign to that end regarding elephants. If successful, we want to further expand legal personhood to other species. We are confident that this will change our perspective of how animals are viewed in legislation since at present, they are considered to be property.
The fact that India has progressive laws on the treatment of animals raises great opportunities to improve awareness of them and advocate for their implementation. It involves working with corporations, the police, and local regulatory bodies to ensure that slaughterhouses are functioning according to the rules. It also includes citizens being aware of the rules, noticing illegal activity, and reporting it to the authorities.
As defined by Merriam-Webster, a gaushala (or goshala) is "an Indian shelter for homeless or unwanted cattle that often also serves as a center for breed improvement and for study of bovine nutrition and welfare.

As we always do every Monday, we've searched our extensive live music listings and picked out a mix of notable shows in metro Phoenix this week that are worthy of attending.
This week, our selections include performers and bands from a variety of genres, ranging from R&B and hip-hop to alternative, indie rock, and country. There are also plenty of famous names involved, including Toni Braxton, Rosanne Cash, Cypress Hill, and The Smoking Popes.
Details about each of their shows — and several other other notable gigs this week in the Valley — can be found below. And for even more live music happening on the local level, hit up Phoenix New Times' online concert calendar.
Awakebutstillinbed and Sundressed
Valley Bar
When Shannon Taylor of Awakebutstillinbed screams the opening lyrics of "life," the second song on their 2018 album what people call low self-esteem is really just seeing yourself the way that other people see you, her voice cracks, desperate to convey the helplessness in the situation. San Jose, California-based Awakebutstillinbed and Phoenix pop-punk band Sundressed set off a two-week tour in Fresno, California, and stop in Phoenix for a night at Valley Bar. Julian Hernandez

The brothers Caterer had no way of knowing the far-reaching effect they would have on the music world when they formed The Smoking Popes in 1991. How could they? At the time the youngest of the three, guitarist Eli, was only 16 years old. Fast-forward nearly three decades, and the seminal pop-punk band's work is cited by many of today's giants of the field as an influence.
Alkaline Trio's Matt Skiba has said it was one of the reasons he started a band in the first place; Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz has compared the group favorably to fellow Chicago act Naked Raygun. In this writer's opinion, however, Smoking Popes blows all of the aforementioned bands out of the water. Daniel Hill
Country queen Rosanne Cash.
Michael Lavine
Rosanne Cash
Even the briefest essay about Rosanne Cash requires a list of her reckonable accomplishments: the 11 number one singles, the Grammy award, and always, always her royal musical lineage. But if being Johnny Cash's daughter got her foot in Music City's door, and while all those hits kept her on Columbia Records' roster for many years, it was her wider contribution to country music – the urbane, deeply personal poetry that transcends the twangy he-done-me-wrong songs that typify Nashville – with which she's made her mark.
Which isn't to say we don't love Cash's 21 Top 40 country hits. "Seven Year Ache" is the smartest musical memory to linger from pop radio's lamentable early '80s romance with country music, and her version of John Hiatt's "Runaway Train" was a high point in both their careers. But it's fair to say that, ever since 1979's Right or Wrong, she's made gloomily sophisticated music fashionable in a way that Laura Nyro never could; helped reshape what country music sounds like; and has upheld the singer-songwriter tradition in a world overrun with Shanias and Faiths and Carries. For that, and for all the hits, and the gorgeous ruminations wedged between them, we're deeply grateful. Robrt L. Pela
The Trunk Space
Seattle-based Big Bite released their self-titled debut album last year and unleashed a wave of distortion. There's always a guitar bending somewhere in the background on their debut album, and there's very little break from it all. It's not quite punk and it's not quite shoegaze, but in the basement of The Trunk Space, it'll sure be loud. Tucson shoegazers Hikikomori will join locals Duerio and The Delphies. If you want a night of guitar pedals getting worked, then this is the show for you. Julian Hernandez
B-Real of Cypress Hill.
Miles Chrisinger
West Coast High 2019 feat. Cypress Hill and Hollywood Undead
Are you insane in the membrane? Or are you just an American tragedy? Either way, we're pretty sure you're a fan of chooming on that lound, so what better way to enjoy a weeknight than spending it at a conspicuously themed concert extravaganza? West Coast High 2019 is taking control at The Van Buren on Wednesday night. Cypress Hill, everyone's favorite '90s hip-hop mainstays, weed enthusiasts, and Simpsons guest stars, are heading up the affair, and they're putting some more bud in your bowl by bringing along rap-rockers Hollywood Undead. We assure you, folks, this show isn't mid, nor is it reggie; In fact, this evening will see the fans cheefin' on that O.G. Cali Kush (metaphorically, of course). Douglas Markowitz
Wild Horse Pass Hotel & Casino in Chandler
Toni Braxton live in concert in 2019 is something of a dichotomy. On one hand, there's the world-class, multiplatinum recording superstar she identifies as; on the other, there's a scattered, ridiculously candid reality television star. There is a catalog of classic '90s R&B hits stricken with heartbreak coupled with a seasoned entertainer who can't help but laugh her way through them. Then there's that voice. And those songs.
Braxton's still treating audiences to such hit tracks as 2000's "He Wasn't Man Enough" and "How Many Ways," a one-two punch that kicks off performances on her current tour. She'll also perform "Just Be a Man About It," probably while finger-waving her way through one of her (oh so many) signature, melismatic vocal runs. Calling it idiosyncratic might be an understatement; still, her ubiquitous vocal zig-zagging is a spectacle unto itself. It's hard to imagine any veteran artist without a lightning-in-a-bottle mega-hit embedded in its audience's DNA. Braxton's 1996 track, "Un-Break My Heart," happens to be an impassioned thunderstorm and will also be on her set list when she comes to Wild Horse Pass in Chandler this month. John Amar
Club Red in Mesa
Mix licentious fun with some dense, pulsating electronica and comical lyrics and it becomes one hell of a party. But not just anyone can keep such a party from devolving into some half-ass gathering of the Hot Topic-attired. This is where we usher in freaky-deaky acid-housers Lords of Acid. A group that garnered a cult following with its 1991 rave debut, the classic techno-raunch album Lust, LOA usually appeals to the platform-shoed, black-clad, liberal-minded set yet still offers an opportunity for the rest of us — even those of us who enjoy color — to dance, grind, and mosh.
Lords of Acid fans have aged. The band hasn't toured in about eight years, and it's anybody's guess whether the new generation will sex it up the same way. Praga Khan will be the only original member. And Lacey Conner, known mostly as the bitch/badass from Rock of Love, will step in as the female vocalist. So it's also up in the air whether the current lineup will be able to please old-school fans. Erica K. Landau
Renowned Grateful Dead cover band Dark Star Orchestra.

Marquee Theatre in Tempe
It ought to come as no surprise that certain outfits are embracing the cover band concept and reaping rewards as a result. Consequently, there's a veritable cottage industry that flourishes via tributes to the Beatles (natch), Pink Floyd, the Eagles, Led Zeppelin, and a host of others. In many cases, the original band is defunct, and now they, the tribute band, can re-create every note and serve as the next best thing. Still, one has to credit Grateful Dead tribute band Dark Star Orchestra with earning more than a hint of actual legitimacy.
Keyboard player Rob Barraco performed with the Dead bassist Phil Lesh in his band Phil Lesh and Friends and also toured with the reunited band that went by the abbreviated name the Dead in 2002 and 2003. Likewise, guitarist Jeff Mattson has also played with Lesh, as well as onetime Grateful Dead vocalist Donna Jean Godchaux. Singer Lisa Mackey claims to having seen more than 200 Grateful Dead shows since 1973, while bassist Kevin Rosen says he's seen 93. Drummers Rob Koritz and Dino English swear their devotion as well. Even so, the most essential factoid that contributes to their cred may well be the number of shows DSO has performed as a unit. Consider the fact that in their full 30 years of activity, up until the point that Jerry Garcia shed his mortal coil, the Dead accumulated 2,318 concerts, a total that Dark Star eclipsed long ago, and in only about half the time.

Igor and the Red Elvises are the kind of collusion with Russians we can get behind.
Julie Delisle
Igor and the Red Elvises
The next time you find yourself scouring for questions for a '90s-themed TV trivia night, we've got one question you can slip into the mix. See if anyone can tell you the name of the rock band that fuses multiple styles, and that made an appearance on one of the decade's most popular shows, Melrose Place. They'll get the point if they answer Igor and the Red Elvises.
That was in 1998; the band formed just a few years prior to that, when two Russians living in California — Igor Yuzov and Oleg Bernov — met at a peace march. They added more members to their musical crew, and started creating their zesty blend of surf rock that incorporates rockabilly, funk, disco, and folk. Their songs are pretty spirited, no matter which style is more at the fore.
Songs like "Twist Like Uma Thurman" from their 2008 release Drinking with Jesus, embody the spirit of '50s party rock. "We Got the Groove" from 2000's Shake Your Pelvis is a tune that brings the vibe of '70s acts like Con Funk Shun to mind. More than two decades and their party train is still rolling, and it's about to make another stop in Phoenix. Be ready to shake it; they make it way too hard to shoegaze. Amy Young
The members of hard rock/alternative band Nothing More.
Nothing More
A lot of bands struggle before hitting it big. Quite common are tales of playing in empty bars for beer money, of cutting a demo and attempting to get it in the hands of someone (anyone!) with the clout to make something happen. Many bands don't make it. Others struggle for several years before finally catching their big break. Nothing More did so for nearly a decade.
Nothing More unofficially began in the late '90s when Jonny Hawkins and Mark Vollelunga bonded over a shared love of music at church camp. The hard rock band, which visits The Van Buren this week, officially formed in 2003 and bassist Daniel Oliver joined the following year. Nothing More caught a big break when its crowd-funded, self-titled record got picked up by Eleven Seven Music, which re-released the album in 2014. It peaked at No. 33 on the Billboard Top 200, and the band's follow-up – 2017's The Stories We Tell Ourselves – debuted to critical and commercial acclaim. Not only did the album chart inside the Billboard Top 15, it was nominated for three Grammy Awards.
"To get to the point of getting nominated for a Grammy, that was really rewarding," Oliver said. "We just kept on pushing and going through the tough times. It was scary, for sure. Even now, it's hard, being away from loved ones and family. It would certainly be easier for them if we were home, if we had a 9-5 job. But we are prophets of encouragement and positivity, and we believe in what we're doing." Clint Hale

CSS Progress Bars with Rounded Corners
I love rounded corners as much as the next guy and CSS3 makes it really easy to use them on the web. Unfortunately, there are some weird quirks and bugs that can spoil the fun. This week, I wanted to style something with to look like a progress bar and those rounded corners really bit me in the ass. Put simply, I wanted to create something that looked roughly like the figure below:
It turned out that it's not as easy as it looks to style an element to behave like that. The difficult part is the fact that the progress bar is flat, but fits nicely in the rounded corners of the containing shape. As it turns out, there are some bugs in Webkit and thus Chrome and Safari when it comes to the clipping of child elements of elements with rounded corners, that make it hard to get this to look like in the picture. I finally found a creative solution. If you're just interested in the source, check out the demo page. Otherwise, do read on!
Understanding The Goal
As I explained, I wanted my progress bar to have rounded corners, and dynamically fill up like this:
Furthermore, I wanted this to be flexible. That means no fixed-width images or other "cheats"; CSS only.
First Try: Nested Progress Div
The most obvious solution for this was to build the progress bar from two nested divs: one to represent the whole item and then one to represent the progress.
We give the outer div a width and a fixed height to keep it simple, but with an absolutely positioned inner div, it could just as well have a dynamic content size.
We can now stretch the inner div to the desired length by setting its width, leading to this:
The result looks great in Firefox, but looks broken in Chrome and Safari, due to the aforementioned bugs. WebKit does not properly clip the content to the parent's rounded outline, so it ends up looking rather awkward.
Second Try: Working Around the Bugs
Although the solution with the nested div looks exactly as intended in Firefox, it doesn't really hold well on WebKit due to the lack of proper clipping. Perhaps something can be done to work around the bugs and make it look good anyway.
One workaround would be to give a rounded corner to the inner "progress" div as well. This removes the clipping artefacts on the left, but results in an unwanted rounded corner on the right of the progress bar. In itself not an unappealing sight, but not what we intended:
Furthermore, the rounded corners on the left and right get pushed together when the width of the bar is less than the desired size of the corners, resulting in a squeezed shape that bleeds past the nice rounded outlines:
Dropping the rounded corner on the right hand side makes it look good, but only when the bar is more than X pixels wide and more than X pixels away from the right corner (otherwise it would still clip there). By now, it's obvious that this is a dead end. Clearly we need a workaround that does have proper clipping. As it happens, such a workaround exists.
Final Solution: Background Clipping
While reading about clipping nested elements with rounded corners, there was one solution that kept popping up. A common problem is to have an image with a caption wrapped inside a div with rounded corners. This is then solved by removing the img-tag and setting the image as a background to the rounded div instead. It's an old solution, that can even be done automatically using jQuery. It works, because even when rounded corners do not clip the contents of an element, they do affect the background. This turned out to be the key to the solution.
Instead of using a nested div to represent the progress, we use the background of the div itself to represent progress. We give it a background-color and a background-image and scale them accordingly to show progress. This way, we no longer need the inner div anymore:
And since we just want a uniform fill on the background, we can use a repeating 1-pixel GIF for the background and stretch it using the background-size property:
This results in a progress bar that looks exactly as intended and fills up the rounded corners perfectly without artefacts, all the way from 0% and 100%:
There we have it! This works in all browsers that support rounded corners and degrades nicely in those that don't (I'm looking at you, IE 7 and below).
There are some caveats. First of all, due to the way image backgrounds work, a background-width of 0% still results in a 1px wide red bar. Therefore, the image background actually starts 1px to the left and goes to 101% instead of 100%. More importantly, we are now using an image to style the background. This has two big drawbacks: firstly, the image requires an extra request to the server to be made, slowing down the loading of the page. Secondly, an image is arguably less flexible than a purely declarative CSS solution.
The extra request is easily solved: rather than linking to the (tiny) image, we embed it directly in the CSS using a data-URI. It's only 43 bytes large, so it fits easily:
Note that this does not work on IE7 or below, so be sure to add a fallback to support those.
The flexibility part can actually also be solved this way, but that is something for another time.
That's all! Using an overlapping background-color and background-image, we can make a sharp-looking rounded progress bar and avoid those maddening clipping bugs. Of course the real solution lies in a cross-browser method to apply rounded corner clipping to child elements, but until then this gets the job done.

The Christ Child as the Good Shepherd (1675–1680)
Bartolomé Estebán Murillo (Spanish, 1617-1682)
Bartolomé Esteban Murillo was a Spanish Baroque painter. Although he is best known for his religious works, Murillo also produced a considerable number of paintings of contemporary women and children. These lively, realist portraits of flower girls, street urchins, and beggars constitute an extensive and appealing record of the everyday life of his times.
Murillo was born to Gaspar Esteban and María Pérez. He may have been born in Seville or in Pilas, a smaller Andalusian town. It is clear that he was baptized in Seville in 1618, the youngest son in a family of fourteen. His father was a barber and surgeon. After his parents died in 1627 and 1628, he became a ward of his sister's husband, Juan Agustín Lagares. Murillo seldom used his father's surname, and instead took his surname from his maternal grandmother, Elvira Murillo.
Murillo began his art studies in Seville under Juan del Castillo, who was a relative of his mother (Murillo's uncle, Antonio Pérez, was also a painter). His first works were influenced by Francisco de Zurbarán, Jusepe de Ribera and Alonso Cano, and he shared their strongly realist approach. The great commercial importance of Seville at the time ensured that he was subject to artistic influences from other regions. He became familiar with Flemish painting and the "Treatise on Sacred Images" of Molanus (Ian van der Meulen or Molano). As his painting developed, his more important works evolved towards the polished style that suited the bourgeois and aristocratic tastes of the time, demonstrated especially in his Roman Catholic religious works.
In 1642, at the age of 26, he moved to Madrid, where he most likely became familiar with the work of Velázquez, and would have seen the work of Venetian and Flemish masters in the royal collections; the rich colors and softly modeled forms of his subsequent work suggest these influences. In 1645 he returned to Seville and married Beatriz Cabrera y Villalobos, with whom he eventually had eleven children.
In that year, he painted eleven canvases for the convent of St. Francisco el Grande in Seville. These works depicting the miracles of Franciscan saints vary between the Zurbaránesque tenebrism of the Ecstasy of St Francis and a softly luminous style (as in Death of St Clare) that became typical of Murillo's mature work. According to the art historian Manuela B. Mena Marqués, "in ... the Levitation of St Giles (usually known as the "Angel's Kitchen", Paris, Louvre) and the Death of St Clare (Dresden, Gemäldegal. Alte Meister), the characteristic elements of Murillo's work are already evident: the elegance and beauty of the female figures and the angels, the realism of the still-life details and the fusion of reality with the spiritual world, which is extraordinarily well developed in some of the compositions."
Also completed c. 1645 was the first of Murillo's many paintings of children, The Young Beggar (Musée du Louvre), in which the influence of Velázquez is apparent. Following the completion of a pair of pictures for the Seville Cathedral, he began to specialize in the themes that brought him his greatest successes: the Virgin and Child and the Immaculate Conception.
After another period in Madrid, from 1658 to 1660, he returned to Seville. Here he was one of the founders of the Academia de Bellas Artes (Academy of Art), sharing its direction, in 1660, with the architect Francisco Herrera the Younger. This was his period of greatest activity, and he received numerous important commissions, among them the altarpieces for the Augustinian monastery, the paintings for Santa María la Blanca (completed in 1665), and others. He died in Seville in 1682, a few months after he fell from a scaffold while working on a fresco at the church of the Capuchines in Cádiz.

As the dust starts to settle on the FBI indictment that rocked the online poker world, it looks like some states are stepping up the pressure to approve intrastate online poker. Iowa yesterday to a step forward with gambling as a whole within their state border.
A House committee approved gambling legislation Wednesday that if approved would change the way gambling runs in there state. The legislation passed the committee by a 20-3 vote and now heads to the house floor. This legislation will allow for advanced deposit wagering on horse races and eliminates the requirement for a gambling referendum every eight years for casinos but also will require the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission to study Internet gambling and have a report ready by Dec. 1st.
This legislation will now go to the House for full debate and if passed will only allow a report to be sanctioned for only poker but that will at least keep the ball rolling in Iowa until Dec. 1.

Facing a criminal charge can be frightening and confusing no matter your age, but being charged with a crime as a juvenile comes with unique challenges. A criminal record can follow your child for the rest of his or her life, affecting his or her ability to get into an academic program, get a job, or even an apartment.
If your child is being charged with a crime, you need an attorney who is familiar with the North Carolina juvenile justice system and who will explain to you the steps and process regarding your particular situation. The criminal defense attorneys at Kirk, Kirk, Howell, Cutler and Thomas, L.L.P. understand the potential outcomes that can stem from a criminal record and work tirelessly on your child's behalf.
First and foremost, you will want to keep your child's criminal case where it belongs – in the juvenile system. Most non-violent juvenile crimes are classified as misdemeanors.
An attorney that specializes in juvenile offenders will know how to prevent your child from being charged as an adult.
In North Carolina, age is the main factor in determining whether your child will be charged as an adult. In North Carolina, 16 and 17-year olds can be charged as adults, but thanks to a recent "Raise the Age" legislative push, that will change in 2019. A judge, however, can opt to charge a child as an adult depending on the severity of the crime.
Once a minor is charged with a crime, they are sent to Juvenile Court Services, where the charge is evaluated. Your family and the child will be interviewed by counselors. From there, the case could simply be closed if it is deemed that court intervention isn't necessary – this is typically reserved for non-violent first offenders.
Juvenile Court Services can also choose to divert the case from court. In this case, a diversion plan is created for the child and whether or not it's heard in court is contingent on its successful completion. Diversion plans can include state-sponsored programs and volunteer activities. If a juvenile court counselor deems your child to be a risk, the case will be immediately sent to the courts. There's also a possibility that your child could be held in a detention facility.
Nationally, youth arrests have gone down significantly since the 90s. In North Carolina, there were 27, 522 charges filed against juveniles and the vast majority were minor offenses, according to the North Carolina Department of Public Safety. Unfortunately, once these cases were turned over the Juvenile Court Services, the majority of them were approved for court, so it's likely that your child should prepare for that outcome if charged with a crime.
In 2016, the vast majority of juvenile offenses in North Carolina were minor charges such as simple assault (fighting), larceny, or disorderly conduct at school according to the North Carolina Department of Public Safety. Only a small percentage of these charges were considered to be felonious. Other offenses that are common among juveniles are underage drinking or possession of drug paraphernalia.
Being aware of your child's whereabouts, friends and activities is key to helping them stay out of trouble. Keep the lines of communication open and make your child aware consequences of engaging in risky behaviors. Children can be impulsive, but if you arm them with information they are more likely to make responsible choices.
Being arrested is scary and traumatic for the child and the family, but it is important to stay calm, remain polite, and know your rights.
As a parent, your first instinct is to defend and protect your child, however, arguing with a law enforcement officer will not help. It is important to remain calm and be a voice of reason and understanding for your child. In most cases, minors are not held and cannot post bond, so your child should be released and in your custody post-arrest. Contact a criminal defense attorney as soon as possible to advise you and your child in the next steps.
If you find yourself having trouble dealing with your child's arrest, find a local support group or speak with a therapist. It is a tough situation and you do not have to go through it alone. Take care of yourself – your child needs you!

the wise and good learn wisdom for the future."
This is an exercise to help you get a clear direction if you're confused about your career path. Designing a new job or career is much like designing a custom home. If you hired an architect to design your dreamhouse, they might ask you to remember previous homes and comment on things you liked or disliked about them. If you enjoyed having a sun porch, a walkout basement, and an oversize pantry, you could design those features into your new place. If you disliked a musty basement and too-small closets, you could avoid those items in the new plan.
You may design your next job or career the same way. Think about your past jobs, write down your likes and dislikes about each of them. Then design a new path that incorporates your likes and avoids your dislikes. In my own case, I like writing, publishing, and one-on-one consulting. I want to include them in any future job. I'm less fond of interpreting financials and spreadsheets. I'll minimize my exposure to them in the future by having financial experts around.
The president of a wireless company hired me to help him resurrect his career after a job loss. He literally said, "Where's my excitement? I need you to help me find my excitement." His recent employment had beaten him down, and we needed to rekindle the flame.
I live by the motto, "It's hard to beat the truth." There's no point pretending I'm a great speechmaker if I dread going onstage. No doubt there's always room for growth and improvement, and so-called "stretch assignments." But for purposes of this exercise, we look at what's true now, what's really true, not what's imaginary.
So stick to the unvarnished truth, warts and all. The truth will set you free.
Dig deep. Nothing is too silly to include. "Disliked the rattle of the air conditioner outside my office window" is a helpful entry. Interestingly, you can be great at something and still dislike it; and conversely, you can be a novice or stumbler and love an activity.
The exercise should reveal not just likes and dislikes, but things you love doing or experiencing, and things you're passionate about. Passion has become an increasingly important word in the world of work.
One client, a major account manager for a media company, loved being on the road three days per week, and disliked being cooped up in an office. Heavy travel was a requirement for her happiness.
Another candidate in the technology world was easily bored. He was quick-minded and could learn any job in a few months. After that, tedium set in and he began looking for a new employer. He changed jobs every year or two, sometimes more often. His resume looked like Swiss cheese, but his skills were in such high demand employers didn't care. He too was excited by travel, and it took us several months to find a career position that fit him perfectly. The key to success was remembering that he thrived on change and variety, where most people are buried by it.
Divide your work experience into short 3-5 year segments—by job title, by boss, by location, by projects, or by any other convenient method. Reason: It's easier to remember short, specific time frames than the entire past at once. Include volunteer work experience, and even hobby or sporting interests, if you're considering them as career directions.
Create a separate document or spreadsheet for each of these time frames, and divide the page into two columns. On the left side of the page, write down all the things you liked or loved about the job. On the right side, itemize the things you disliked or hated about the job—and be as specific and detailed as possible. It's not too helpful to say, for example, "I disliked the people." That's much too general. It's more useful to say, "I disliked outside sales people who were pushy and rude."
Think through each time frame carefully. Where were you? What were your big challenges? Your big successes? Your major failures or disappointments? How were you and your boss getting along? How did you feel about the organization? Were you proud and happy to be working there?
This isn't a 15-minute exercise where you drain your brain once and for all. It's a "refrigerator exercise." You tape it to the refrigerator and make notes from time to time as you walk by. This is a "think piece." You mull it over in your mind for several days, or even several weeks. In general, it's better to make long detailed lists rather than short generic ones. The more data you have, the easier you'll see trends and patterns.
Early in my career I used this "Likes and Dislikes" exercise to predict a candidate's success in landing the right job fast. Clients who brought in detailed, lengthy, well-thought-out assignments did best. Those who didn't take it seriously, who scratched out a dozen or so likes and dislikes on the back of an envelope, did poorly. That still holds true today. Drill into this assignment and dig deep. You'll be rewarded with great results.
Like working for someone who is focused and prioritizes effectively, versus someone who continually changes priority from one thing to another—or making everything the same high priority.
Review your lists and look for patterns. You might say, "I see I've always liked working on projects alone with no outside supervision. Therefore, I want to limit my people interaction in the future." Or you could observe the opposite about yourself: "I've never liked working on projects alone; I do best in a team-oriented environment."
Look at the extremes. Circle or highlight items that were passions or loves in one color; and circle or highlight intense dislikes, or hates, in another color. See what stands out.
Make extra copies of your lists and distribute them to a few trusted family members, friends, or business acquaintances. Discuss your preferences with others to see what insights they have. Those who know us well often see connections we miss.
Begin to decide what you want in your next job—and what you don't want in the future. Begin to determine what you must have—these are the absolute essentials— then think about what would be fun, but perhaps frivolous. A window view of the ocean? Three weeks of paid vacation? The ability to work from home one day (or more) per week.
People often object that this exercise is too idealistic. After all, we can't always have everything we want. I agree that we must pay attention to reality, but at the same time, it's important to dream a little too. As the poet Carl Sandburg said, "Nothing happens unless first a dream." So why not dream big?
You may not see all your likes in your next work assignment; but chances are, if you have your priorities firmly in mind, you'll find the 95%-98% good fit. In my book, that's perfection. Next step: go to the part two of this three-part series, the career blueprint.

«Англете́р» (Hotel d'Angleterre от  — Англия) — четырехзвёздочная гостиница в центре Санкт-Петербурга. Находится на углу Вознесенского проспекта (д.  10) и Малой Морской улицы (д. 24), выходит на Исаакиевскую площадь. С 1970-х гг. относится к гостиничному комплексу «Астория».

История
Здание построено в начале XIX века (архитектор неизвестен), в 1845—1846 годах перестроено по проекту архитектора А. Робена. Во дворе был добавлен четвёртый этаж. Здание использовалось как доходный дом (доходный дом С. Поггенполя).

С 1876 года переоборудовано под гостиницу.

Названия гостиницы неоднократно менялись: поначалу Шмидт-Англия (по фамилии владелицы Терезы Шмидт), затем — просто «Англия», с 1911 по 1919 — «Англетер» (на французский манер), с 1919 по 1925 — «Интернационал», с 1925 по 1948 — «Англетер», с 1948 — «Ленинградская». До 1924 года в этом здании размещалась английская миссия.

В 1987 году, когда стало известно, что здание гостиницы решено снести, в защиту памятника истории выступила городская общественность. Громкие акции были организованы группой спасения памятников истории и культуры Ленинграда. Несколько дней (с 16 по 18 марта) проходил пикет, группу поддержали многие известные деятели культуры. После того, как власти снесли здание, был организован постоянно действующий пикет; через месяц состоялся митинг «Месяц памяти "Англетера"», собравший около 2 тыс. человек.

В 1987 была полностью разобрана и к 1991 году отстроена вновь с сохранением внешнего облика при участии дизайнера Ольги Полицци.

Общие сведения
На 2014 год в гостинице насчитывался 192 номера для размещения постояльцев.

Here's a tip if you're planing a trip to Belize that happens to fall over Easter: Don't. Just kidding, do, but maybe start looking for accommodation yesterday. We'd kind of vaguely planned to wing it for our last few days until a friend more clued into the Belizean national vacation habits laughed in my face and told me we'd be lucky to find a hammock to sleep in over that weekend on Caye Caulker. She was almost right — by the time I started looking, six weeks before our arrival, there were three places still available that were bookable online, and one sold out while I was in the checkout process. Other places with only phone numbers confirmed that they too had no vacancy. Thankfully, my Airbnb request went through and we found ourselves the proud temporary residents of a cute little two bedroom apartment for the weekend. This was my first time using Airbnb — previously I've always rented via Flipkey and I saved $25 by using a friend's referral link. You can do with your own bookings by using mine — click here!
Many thanks to Maya Island Air for providing me with complimentary flights within Belize. Get $25 off your first Airbnb booking by clicking here.
I love the running titles in your Belize series Alex, bravo!
Brought back so many great memories – thanks Alex! Was there not long after a hurricane split the island in two. It's so laid back and different.
Alex this looks amazing! I've always been focused on returning to SE Asia but you've opened my eyes to Central America as a possibility – thank you!

You can't race a hamburger. Just admit it.
And now, the annual lobster races in Bar Harbor, Maine.
It's hot, it's muggy, everyone is pushing out work so they can leave for the Fourth of July holiday at the end of the week, hoping the boss lets everyone out early (or leaves early and can't notice everyone left immediately after) so it seems the perfect time to redesign this site and launch a new blog thingy that no one is expecting, wanting, or finding.


An essay which Leaven's Freedom is the primary subject matter, by Canadian writer Kenneth Radu is available at this link.
Excerpt: "He does not come speaking on behalf of anyone who will come after him as if he is a kind precursor, a kind of John the Baptist. His speech consists of the words any viewer puts on his tongue; it does not speak unless it speaks with our interpretations. Nothing is more silent than a Macri portrait, and Leaven's Freedom is noisy with the volubility of unheard languages. We hear in the silence whatever language we speak, the unspoken desires and mute blasphemies as we seek to embrace the dusty head and wash away the sands of sorrow, rake our fingers through the hair, and search for sparks of revelation in his dark down-turning eyes."


A remote work setup provides several advantages. However, it also comes with drawbacks and pitfalls. To make sure that you reap the benefits and evade potential problems, there are do's and don'ts to consider. The following points should serve as a useful guide in managing remote teams across different settings.
Communication is extremely important in a remote work setup. It can spell the success or failure in the management of telecommuting teams. That's why having effective internal team communication is a must, and it only makes sense of adopting an unambiguous communication playbook. There needs to be a unified and systematic way for everyone in the team to communicate. Managers should lay out a dependable process for contacting each other, for managers to reach employees, for employees to raise concerns, and for everyone to be able to respond accordingly.
Choose priority means of communication. Decide if the team should stick to using Gmail and Google Hangouts or everyone should also have Skype and a conventional telephone or mobile phone number. There are many ways to communicate, but it's important to choose one or two platforms as the priority methods. This is important to have consistency and to make it easy to track correspondence or calls. It would be difficult, especially for managers, to keep up with the telecommuting team if there are different platforms employed. It is inefficient for management and can be taxing on computing resources to boot. Imagine an accommodating manager who has to install and regularly run multiple messaging services (Facebook Messenger, Skype, WhatsApp, WeChat, etc.) to be able to communicate with team members.
More is better. While it's advisable to choose particular communication platforms to use, it wouldn't hurt having several other ways to contact each other. If one becomes unavailable, it is advantageous having other means to send messages or make calls. This does not mean running all messaging services at once. It is about having another contact option when it becomes difficult to reach someone through the usual methods.
As much as possible, everyone should be able to communicate through traditional telephone or mobile phones. Don't rely on email and web messaging. Not everyone can be online all of the time. There have to be non-online ways to reach employees especially when there are emergencies or urgent tasks.
Require everyone to confirm the receipt of messages. When sending emails or when using communication methods that don't entail instant responses, it is important for receipt confirmations to be sent in response. Confirmation, or the lack thereof, will alert managers of what to do next. Likewise, it tells remote employees to follow up or resend what they are supposed to send.
Create standard processes for different kinds of communication. For example, when submitting reports, aside from having deadlines, there has to be a specific mode of transmission and format of the report. Additionally, the receiver should confirm receipt upon getting it. Another example: when a manager and a remote employee discuss a task, the results of the discussion or the points decided upon should be converted into a new task expected to be completed within a specific timeline.
All team members should be made aware of short-term, mid-term, and long-term goals. At the same time, the management should present expectations to serve as a guide for remote workers. Managing remote teams is not a one-way street. Cooperation is a must so everyone should know what needs to be accomplished and how they are expected to attain team objectives.
It helps to have a private online page (accessible to remote team members) that tracks the goals and expectations set for a team. This can help motivate employees and create a sense of achievement as items on the list are slowly crossed out.
Choose a reliable remote work software.
It's not compulsory to get a remote work software to be successful in managing remote teams. You can use a combination of different software and web services in lieu of a single telecommuting software platform. For example, you can use Google Drive (including Google Docs and Google Sheets), Gmail, and Google Hangouts to manage a team of online content writers or even a group of remote translators. You can creatively take advantage of the different free online services and apps to facilitate remote team operations.
The software should have SSL encryption and be proven free from malware or backdoor channels that compromise your data.
Never use a telecommuting platform that is known for occasional crashing, stability issues, or bugs. If it is web-based, it should have very minimal downtime or offline times due to server maintenance.
It should be intuitive or easy to use. Learning its different features and functions shouldn't take a long time.
All of the important functions should be present. These include an efficient system for managing assignments or task queues, messaging, collaboration, file sharing, screen sharing, as well as invoicing and the ability to integrate with other applications.
It would be great if you can find a freeware but it wouldn't be a bad decision spending for the software if it is guaranteed to be secure, reliable, intuitive, and complete with the features you need.
Working with remote employees is challenging because of the physical distance. It's difficult to communicate or conduct meetings even with all the advances in communications technology. Communication systems can encounter problems or employees can always make up excuses for being "un-contactable." It's completely different from simply summoning someone who is in another room or office.
That's why managing remote teams entails more than the usual follow-ups and following through. For managers, this is necessary to have the assurance that tasks are completed as expected. For remote employees, especially those who have self-discipline issues, this helps in setting the pace and ensuring that they are properly guided on what should be done.
This does not mean that you shouldn't trust your remote employees. However, it's better for a manager to be perceived as an annoying superior rather than risking the completion of tasks or the quality of the output. It is advisable for remote team managers to be involved in every step of the project instead of assigning tasks and expecting an output at a deadline. Giving remote employees the full trust that they would deliver what's expected of them, as much as possible, should only be done after they establish a good track record.
Even if you hire the best possible telecommuters, there's no guarantee that they will always be able to complete what they need to do. You don't necessarily have to abandon your trust for people; don't trust that everything will proceed as expected. Technical issues, calamities, accidents, illnesses, and other problems can stand in the way of dedicated, hardworking remote workers.
While it is advisable to regularly keep posted with the progress of tasks or a project, you should not overdo it. It's unnecessary and can be irritating (for teleworkers) to demand updates every hour unless an output is urgently needed. Eventually, you should be able to assess the performance of your remote team and determine if you can trust them enough to complete tasks on time without the constant heads up. Following up and following through are different from unnecessarily requiring remote workers to send reports every so often.
Make sure that the goals and timelines of a project are reasonably achievable. It's not a good idea setting deadlines earlier to rush employees and extend the deadline because of the failure to get tasks done on time. Some managers try to trick employees into thinking that they are already way behind schedule to force them to expedite the delivery of the expected output. This strategy can become counter-productive in the long run, though. Employees may no longer take deadlines seriously as they realize, based on experience, that deadlines are often reset because they regularly fail to fulfill the unrealistic requirements.
This is a no-brainer but worth emphasizing. If you demand good performance from your remote team, it's only logical to treat them well. Promptly address their complaints or concerns. Don't coldly admonish or penalize them for mistakes or failures without hearing their side as this can create unnecessary conflict or a sense of hostility. Send them their pay on time. Never treat them with disrespect and arrogance as these can be reciprocated with poor performance.
Managing remote teams is not going to be easy. There are many challenges along the way. Be prepared for these and try to make it work. If there are concerns from employees, address them accordingly. If inefficiencies are encountered, take the time to analyze the situation and implement the necessary tweaks or changes. If you picked the wrong people to work from home, replace them.
Unlock the full benefits of a remote work setup by paying close attention to the things you should and shouldn't do as a manager. Ensure good communication, be transparent, use an excellent remote work software, and stay in control. Meanwhile, don't be complacent, excessively fixated with updates, negligent in your responsibilities to your remote team, and quick to be discouraged or demotivated.

Delaware State University (DSU) and Siemens have implemented what could be one of the most groundbreaking campus card programs in the United States to date. But few outside of the 4,000 cardholders on the campus know much about the project. Perhaps that is because while Siemens, the project's technology leader, is a major worldwide presence, it is a relative newcomer to the U.S. campus market. Or perhaps it is because the project's originator at Delaware State University, Dr. Charles Fletcher, comes from an area of campus administration that has not typically driven campus card technology.
Dr. Fletcher is the university's chief information officer (CIO) responsible for networks, data, and information security on the Dover, Delaware campus. While card programs have traditionally originated in auxiliary services, campus security, food services, or other administrative areas, IT departments have not been much of a factor in the past. But the role of the campus card is changing, as evidenced by the Delaware State program, and IT is destined to play a starring role.
The contactless chip is in place to be used by the municipal transit system to enable DSU cards to be used for contactless fare payments when the city's system goes live.
Today, the cards control network access for faculty, staff, and students; physical access to secure locations including residence halls; access to the university's SCT Banner ERP system; and the campuswide Lotus Notes email system.
"This project has given great energy to this University, the faculty, students, and local community," concludes Dr. Fletcher. And that energy is beginning to expand outside of the institution. Their pioneering merger of physical and logical solutions on a single card may well establish Delaware State as one of the next generation of models emulated by card programs across the country.
