Agropur in 2016 expanded capacity at its Feta cheese plant at Weyauwega, Wisconsin, a move it said will "keep it number one in Feta production in the U.S." (Agropur.com)
Acquisitions and cost-cutting have combined to boost dairy co-operative Agropur's year-end bottom line — and to raise its total patronage dividends for the year by 50 per cent.
The Quebec co-operative, which in 2016 landed on Rabobank's list of the world's 20 largest dairy companies for the first time, booked net earnings before patronage and income taxes of $153.99 million, on sales of $5.95 billion, for the year ending Oct. 29, up from $87.82 million on $5.87 billion in fiscal 2015.
Patronage dividends to Agropur's 3,271 members for 2016 totalled $60.11 million, up from $40.59 million in fiscal 2015.

"Agropur's performance is the result of the sum of all the initiatives we have taken in recent years: our mergers and acquisitions, our cost-cutting programs, our major investments in our brands and in our facilities in both Canada and the U.S.," president Serge Riendeau, wrapping up his 15th and final year in the post, said in a release Thursday.
"We are prouder than ever of our business model, which helps spread the wealth and develop local communities."
CEO Robert Coallier, in the co-op's annual report, said it was able to boost earnings from operations (before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-recurring costs) by 34.6 per cent, to $411.68 million, "despite still-unsteady global prices for whey products and a fiercely competitive Canadian market environment."
The Longueuil-based co-op in 2016 also mapped out a cost reduction program expected to produce $100 million in savings over three years, yielding $41 million in savings in fiscal 2016.
The co-op said its focus in 2016 was on "integrating the numerous acquisitions of recent years" but still included "substantial" investments worth $150 million in its Canadian and U.S. plants.
Agropur's Natrel brand "topped the rankings" in fine-filtered, lactose-free and organic dairy categories, the co-op said.
The Olympic and Iogo brands, a joint venture between Agropur and Ultima Foods, "posted the strongest growth in the fresh dairy products category" in Canada with sales increases of 10 per cent and six per cent respectively, above the industry-average three per cent.
The co-op in 2016 also rolled out Inno Agropur, a diayr product innovation initiative, including the Inno Challenge, in which over 60 participants submitted project proposals and three concepts have been selected for co-development "in the coming weeks."
Agropur in 2016 also pledged all the products it makes in Canada and sells under its own brands will contain 100 per cent Canadian milk and dairy ingredients and bear the Dairy Farmers of Canada "Quality Milk" certification logo.
Agropur products displaying the logo are expected to appear on grocery shelves also "in the coming weeks." — AGCanada.com Network

US Woman Who Refused To Wear Mask In Grocery Store Convicted For Trespassing
Marianne Smith, 57, was arrested on Aug 15, 2020, at a grocery store in California where an anti-mask protest against the state's mask mandate was taking place nearby.
57-year-old Marianne Smith tried to enter a grocery store in California without a mask and refused to follow the state's Covid-19 mandate	-
Updated: 22 Oct 2021 7:29 am
A Southern California woman who refused to wear a mask or leave a grocery store last year was convicted of trespassing and obstructing a business or customers.
The jury found Marianne Campbell Smith guilty on Wednesday and Orange County Superior Court Judge John Zitny sentenced her to 40 hours of community service, a year of informal probation and a $200 fine, the Orange County Register reported.
Smith, 57, was arrested on Aug. 15, 2020 at Mother's Market in the city of Costa Mesa, where an anti-mask protest against California's mask mandate to prevent the spread of the coronavirus was happening nearby.
In a statement in court before sentencing, Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer said the case centered on property rights.
"The defendant wanted to make this about masks and freedom," Spitzer said. "This trial was about a private business and workers just trying to comply with health orders. Instead she bullied her way around the store and yelled at masked elderly shoppers that they were part of a government conspiracy."
Smith said she cannot wear a mask due to a medical condition and her lawyer said she went into the store to get food, not to protest.
"Justice was not served, but I accept it," Smith, 57, said outside the courthouse. "Because it was important to talk about these issues today."
The Register newspaper said the case marked one of few times in which arrests or criminal charges involving mask requirements have been pursued in Orange County, where police and prosecutors have focused on education and outreach regarding coronavirus restrictions.
Another woman arrested with Smith previously accepted a plea deal requiring a donation to a coronavirus relief fund and admitted to an infraction for refusing to leave the store when a police officer ordered her to leave the premises at the owner's request. A third woman who entered with them apparently left before police responded.
Defense attorney Frederick Fascenelli questioned why Smith wasn't charged with violating mask requirements that had been added to Costa Mesa's municipal code.
"This thing is all political," Fascenelli said. "They are trying to shoehorn in these trespassing charges because they don't want to touch the third rail of politics that is a mask mandate."

KANSAS CITY, Mo. —
Police have re-opened several downtown Kansas City streets that were shut down during an investigation over a suspicious package.
Investigators said a suitcase with wires coming out of it was found near the federal building at 13th Street and Holmes Road, but they closed off a larger nearby area.
Streets in a one-block radius were closed to pedestrians and vehicles. Cars were being kept away from a wider perimeter.
The streets reopened late Monday afternoon.
The device was removed from the scene and taken away in protective equipment. Police said it did not appear to be explosives-related or criminal in nature.

Tag: Gail O'Grady
The CW: What's New for Fall 2010
September 9, 2010 / Will Harris
Hellcats (Wed., Sept. 8 @ 9:00 PM, The CW)
* The competition: "Modern Family" and "Cougar Town" (ABC), "Criminal Minds" (CBS), "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" (NBC), "Hell's Kitchen" (Fox)
Starring: Aly Michalka, Ashley Tisdale, Gail O'Grady, Heather Hemmens, Robbie Jones, Matt Barr, Sharon Leal, Jeff Hephner, D.B. Woodside, Elena Esovolova
Producers: Tom Welling ("Smallville"), Kevin Murphy ("Desperate Housewives"), Allan Arkush ("Heroes")
Network's Description: a pumped-up drama about a young pre-law student whose world is turned upside-down when she loses her scholarship and has to join the college's competitive cheerleading squad. This fun, energetic series is a behind-the-scenes look at the drama, politics and pressure surrounding the football program at a Southern university.
The Buzz: This isn't a show for critics. It's a show for CW viewers. Rarely do these two demographics meet. Granted, the slot behind "America's Next Top Model" has killed many a newcomer, but they've got a lot of spirit, these Hellcats, so you never know what stunts they might be able to pull off.
Pilot Highlight: It's a tie between Marti's audition for the cheering squad and – spoiler alert! – her first practice after making the squad. Both offer awesome choreography and, yes, you lechers, lots of sexy cheerleaders dancing their asses off.
Bottom Line: At the very least, there's more to it than the average non-female viewer will probably want to admit – yes, that's right, sir, I'm speaking to you – but your appreciation of it will depend heavily on how you approach the material. This ain't Shakespeare, people. It's an hourlong TV series about cheerleaders. Set your standards appropriately, and you might just enjoy it…and if you don't, then you almost certainly know someone who will.
Nikita (Thurs., Sept. 9 @ 9:00 PM, The CW)
* The competition: "Grey's Anatomy" (ABC), "CSI: Crime Scene Investigations" (CBS), "The Office" and "Outsourced" (NBC), "Fringe" (Fox)
Starring: Maggie Q, Lyndsy Fonseca, Shane West, Aaron Stanford, Ashton Holmes, Tiffany Hines, Melinda Clarke, Xander Berkeley
Producers: Craig Silverstein ("Bones"), Danny Cannon ("CSI," "The Forgotten," "Dark Blue"), McG and Peter Johnson ("Human Target")
Network's Description: a spy and assassin for a top secret U.S. government agency rebels against the system that created her and will stop at nothing to bring their powerful operation to an end.
The Buzz: There are a lot of folks muttering about how it hasn't been all that long since the USA Network's "La Femme Nikita" series, but a lot of them have walked away surprisingly impressed with the action delivered by the pilot.
Pilot Highlight: The sequence where Nikita sports a very impressive red bathing suit, slips into a hot tub with her target, and takes him down.
Bottom Line: It's not the perfect pairing for "The Vampire Diaries," but when you consider the fact that the women who swoon over the undead might also enjoy seeing other members of their gender doing a little well-choreographed ass-kicking, it's not the craziest match-up in the world. Given the relatively low ratings standards of The CW, the established fans of the "Nikita" franchise might manage to make it into a success for the network.

A Close Encounter with a Couple of Hellcats (and an Olympian to boot)
September 8, 2010 / Bob Westal
Recently, Premium Hollywood was pitched the opportunity to attend the so-called SuperGirl Jam 2010, an event which, if we're to be completely honest, we'd never heard of before we received our invitation.
Why the invite…? Because a couple of the stars of The CW's new cheerleading drama, "Hellcats," were going to be in attendance – Robbie Jones and Aly Michalka – and we'd been told that we'd have a chance to chat with them about the series. As a bit of pop culture gravy, we'd been told that we'd also be getting the opportunity to speak with an honest-to-goodness Olympian: Nastia Liukin, who's also managed to turn up on such series as "Gossip Girl" and "Make It Or Break It."
So off we went to SuperGirl Jam 2010…and $17 dollars in parking fees later, we did indeed get to to talk to all three of these individuals. That's the good news. The bad news, however, is that the sum total of time spent with the trio – we talked to each of them separately – barely topped out at the 10-minute mark. Note to self: next time, get a guarantee of at least five minutes per person.
And possibly parking validation.
– Robbie Jones –
Premium Hollywood: Hi, I'm Bob Westal from Premium Hollywood/Bullz-Eye.com.
Robbie Jones: Nice to meet you.
PH: I'm not usually a TV guy and I was researching you. You're kind of a mystery man.
RJ: Am I?
PH: There's not a lot about you on the Internet. For example, your age.
RJ: It's crazy.
PH: Your age is unknown. Are you like 50 years old?
RJ: 57. I have 16 kids.
PH: In five different states.
RJ: It's crazy. The math is all off but it's true.
PH: Okay, I know you were on "One Tree Hill" and they kind of killed you.
RJ: It was sad. Sad. Q. [Quentin Fields] was just turning the corner to be a positive guy and — life cut short. Tragic end.
PH: "Tragic end." Okay. Let's get a little background [before we move on to "Hellcats"]. Where are you from originally? How did you get started?
RJ: I'm from Sacramento, California and I've been in L.A. for about five years and I've been acting pretty much since I got out here.
PH: How did you get the "One Tree Hill" gig?
RJ: Well, it was the audition process. I'm sure a ton of guys auditioned for the role. I went in, just like everybody else. [Series creator] Mark Schwahn, I'm telling you, he changed my life, he gave me a shot, believed in me, [CBS Television President] Peter Roth believed in me, and the rest is kind of history. It's really a blessing from God, honestly.

Greetings to the New Series: "Hellcats"
As someone who grew up preferring reading to playing sports and had more success as a comic book collector and Trekkie than a ladies man, it will probably come as no surprise to you that my years in public school didn't exactly find me traveling in the same circles as the cheerleaders. For many years, I perceived cheerleaders as goddesses who deigned to walk among us mere humans, a breed of woman who existed so far above me in the school social structure that I considered it a major end-of-the-year coup if could get any of them to sign my yearbook…and I maintained that impression right up until my little sister became a cheerleader, at which point several things happened semi-simultaneously:
1) I was put in a position where I was forced to acknowledge that if this gaggle of hot girls in short skirts had allowed my sister into their ranks, then she too must be considered hot by the masses. Not cool. Nobody likes the idea that other guys are thinking of their sister like that.
2) I was also forced to acknowledge something which I'd long suspected but hadn't wanted to admit: that my little sister was far more popular than I was. Even less cool.
3) Less important from a social standpoint but arguably most germane to this discussion, a steady stream of cheerleading videos went into rotation on the VCR in our living room. Whether the girls are hot or not, a guy can only stand to watch so many routines in a row before losing his mind, and I hit my maximum threshold pretty quickly.
The end result of these three things was that I quickly lost my interest in watching cheerleaders in action…and the effect was long-lasting: long after high school, I found little interest in films like "Bring It On" and "Sugar and Spice" because, frankly, I'd had enough cheerleading to last me a lifetime. As such, when it was announced that The CW's fall line-up would featuring a full-fledged cheerleading drama, I reasonably presumed that I'd still be just as uninterested as I'd ever been.
This time around, though, I had a slightly different reaction to watching the cheerleaders. Sure, as a straight male, my instinct was still to unabashedly ogle the hot girls in the short skirts…but as a 40-year-old male, I realized that my daughter is closer in age to the girls than I am, and I felt – quite appropriately – like a dirty old man.
But, c'mon, man, have you seen the star of this show?
I think even the most chaste amongst our readership can concede that Aly Michalka is, quite simply, smokin', but as history has shown us time and time again, it takes more than a hot girl…more, even, than a squad of hot girls…to make a quality television show.
Is there more to "Hellcats" than just a bunch of pretty faces?
Well, at the very least, there's more to it than the average non-female viewer will probably want to admit – yes, that's right, sir, I'm speaking to you – but your appreciation of it will depend heavily on how you approach the material.

I've got to admit, Allen is already becoming part of the naval archeology scene.
Add Italian DD Artigliere to the list.
Forum: Off Topic Topic: USS Indianapolis FOUND!!!
True, yet with the turrets, I'm surprised that #'s 1 and 2 fell out of their barbettes, but #3 stayed in place.
Also, torpedo damage below the bridge area must've weakened the structure itself, which explains why it broke off during the descent to the ocean floor.
What gets me, is that the bow ended up farther away from the main wreck.

Skilled Nursing Industry Must Respond Quickly to Survive Under PDPM
With a little over a year to go before the skilled nursing industry must adapt to a new payment model, smart providers are poised to take advantage — and one expert says it's time to begin preparing now in order to achieve the most benefits.
"SNF operators are optimistic, and I think you should be," Marc Zimmet, president of Zimmet Healthcare Services Group, said during his company's annual conference in Atlantic City, N.J. on Wednesday. "If you know what you're doing, get in early. It could be a big positive."
In short, the new Patient-Driven Payment Model (PDPM) for skilled nursing facilities will shift reimbursement incentives away from the volume of therapy provided, and toward the acuity of the residents that a typical skilled nursing facility serves. First introduced in April and finalized late last month, the PDPM is slated to come to skilled nursing facilities starting on October 1, 2019, a date that Zimmet said he had "very high confidence" will not be pushed back.
Despite some industry worries about certain aspects of the plan, Zimmet emphasized that because the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) designed the PDPM to be budget-neutral, overall Medicare reimbursements won't go down — it's just up to providers to adjust their strategies accordingly, and in enough time to take advantage of the shifts.
"We're not looking at a phase-in. We're looking at a full-blown change," Zimmet said.
For instance, SNF operators might think that it's time to start ignoring regular therapy services entirely, and instead focus on landing the highest-acuity patients possible. But Zimmet noted that most residents in a skilled nursing facility already require significant levels of care simply by virtue of having been sent there from a hospital or other referral source. Instead, providers should focus on extensively documenting the ways they treat these patients through detailed nursing notes and supporting paperwork.
"It's not a question of taking more medically complex patients," he said. "It's about taking credit for the acuities that we have in house and not relying on therapy to justify skilled coverage."
Another PDPM myth, in Zimmet's view, was the idea that CMS wants to reduce lengths of stay through the new payment structure. While per-day reimbursement rates will decrease the longer a skilled nursing resident stays in a SNF, the same was true under the old system — and the effect might actually be less strong under PDPM, Zimmet said.
Budget-neutral — but for how long?
Zimmet warned that while PDPM remains budget-neutral for the near term, that commitment to steady funding isn't guaranteed.
"So we're going to have quite possibly an increase, and if you don't get on top of it, and there is an across-the-board cut, you'll wind up below where you are now," he said. "But, theoretically, the same money's there."
Still, he noted that providers have all the tools for success under the new system — as long as they choose to use them in time.
"It is not a funding reduction. It is a change in the revenue delivery system. So in terms of not wanting to deal with the change, I get it," Zimmet said. "Who wants to deal with [it]? … But in terms of the ultimate impact, you shouldn't be scared. We're not worried about it."

How to Take a Scrolling Screenshot on Windows 10
By Hasrul September 9, 2022 September 19th, 2022 No Comments
All of it comes together to bring you a refreshing experience on your PC. When it's done, you'll see the new Windows 11 home screen. You'll find it's pretty familiar, except the Start button is in the middle of the screen with the rest of your taskbar apps. But, Microsoft said it expects all devices on Windows 10 that meet the Windows 11 system requirements to receive an offer to upgrade by the middle of 2022.
Hit windows keys Win + Shift + S, your screen will flash and a small Snipping Tool menu will appear at the top of the screen.
Based on your location and the model of your computer, you might need to enable the Trusted Platform Module to meet the minimum system requirements.
If you don't know the exact reason for this issue, you can try these solutions one by one until you find the suitable one.
It's a complex process, so read our how to upgrade to Windows 11 without TPM 2.0 guide for the full rundown, including a look at the risks involved.
Like the current version of Task Manager, the new version can also display the same set of screens, such as Processes, Performance, App history, Startup apps, Users, Details, and services. Windows 11 version 22H2 aka Sun Valley 2 is set to launch later this year. Unlike the original Windows 11 release, it won't be a massive update with radical design changes.
But if you're stuck and don't know how to download Windows 11, we have your back. A command prompt window will open, running a batch file that downloads all the necessary files from Microsoft and creates the Windows 11 ISO file for you. This process will take several minutes or perhaps longer, depending on your Internet connection. If you have an old Windows key you can carry over from a previous build, that's your best option and effectively gives you Windows 10 or Windows 11 for free.
Option 1: Using Windows logo/Power + Volume Down button
Once the app is installed and open, you need to locate the Windows 11 banner at the top of the page and click Check Now. At the outset it seemed early adopters dealt with a nigh-endless list of Windows 11 problems, but Microsoft has been putting in work to address the weaknesses of Windows 11. While it's still not the operating system I think it could be — heck, it's still not even the operating system Microsoft promised us — Windows 11 is in better shape now than it's ever been.
However the captured image is not immediately saved, it's actually copied to your computer's clipboard. Follow these steps to turn that https://driversol.com/dll/api-ms-win-core-version-l1-1-0_dll/ floating screengrab into an image file you can save. The Print Screen button near the upper right of your keyboard will capture everything that's on your screen and save it on the clipboard. Perhaps you're saving a copy of a receipt as a digital file. Or you need to show something weird on your screen that makes you think your computer is acting up to tech support. Or you want to capture the participants on a Zoom conference call.
Furthermore, the app can now show previews of items within folders. File Explorer also comes with a new OneDrive integration to help you have control over storage consumption and ensure your files are syncing. When browsing your OneDrive folders, you can now see your sync status and quota usage without leaving the app.
What happens when you erase iPhone from iCloud?
Open any drawing or document editor program such as Paint. Furthermore, this screen capture tool also allows you to draw and highlight texts present on your captured image. You can also send your screenshot via email directly from the snipping tool itself. Windows 10 provides a pre-installed snipping tool app that you can use to capture screenshots in your device.
How to take a screenshot of your entire screen
The Game Bar can capture a screenshot whether you're in the middle of playing a game or not. Although it has been removed from the list of apps under the Start button, you can easily access it through the search bar. After you take your screenshot, it will be saved to your clipboard and will be displayed as a notification in the lower-right corner of your screen. Finally, you can use the Snipping Tool to take screenshots of any visible section of any image you have available. To launch it, simply type "Snipping" after hitting the Windows Key. If you don't have a dedicated PrtScn key on a tablet or laptop, you can typically use the function key to activate these capabilities in the same way.

Fast-expanding market
Chaitanya Mallapur14 May 2016 9:30 PM GMT
Although India's use of the internet is lower than many poorer countries, the country's e-commerce sector tripled - or grew by 209 percent over the last five years - from $4.4 billion (Rs.20,020 crore) in 2010 to $13.6 billion (Rs.83,096 crore) in 2014.
This data was contained in a reply given to the Lok Sabha in March 2016. India's e-commerce market is likely to reach $38 billion (Rs.252,700 crore) in 2016, according to an Associated Chambers of Commerce & Industry of India (Assocham) report released in January 2016.
The online retail sector in India is expected to be a $1 trillion (Rs.660,000 crore) market by 2020, according to a recent report by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and Deloitte, a consultancy. The study indicates that more e-commerce will trigger big innovations in India.
The Goods and Services Tax, once implemented, is expected to boost the growth of e-commerce by simplifying taxation and logistics, said the CII-Deloitte report.
Internet penetration across the country is rising with as many as 354 million users reported as of September 2015. Online shoppers in India have increased from 20 million in 2013 to 39 million in 2015, an increase of 95 percent over three years.
India's e-commerce market rises despite low net use. But India's internet penetration - the percentage of Indians who use the net - is low, 19 percent in 2014, as IndiaSpend reported earlier. Compare this with Australia (90 percent), the US (87 percent), Japan (86 percent), Brazil (53 percent) and China (46 percent).
In 2014, only 18 of 100 Indians used the internet, against 49.3 for China and 48.3 for Vietnam. Even poorer countries, such as Ghana, had greater internet penetration - 18.9 users per 100 people, according to a Mint report. Similarly, mobile subscriptions in India were 74 per 100 people in 2014, lower than Bangladesh (80), China (92), Indonesia (129) and Vietnam (147).
Mobile internet spend has increased from 54 percent to 64 percent from 2014 to 2015, attributed to high-speed 3G and 4G internet connectivity at some of the world's lowest prices, fuelling e-commerce growth.
Despite the rise in broadband and mobile internet users, speed remains a major constraint. The average broadband speed in India is 2 megabits per second (Mbps), ranking 115 globally, IndiaSpend has reported. Similarly, the average mobile internet speed is 1.7 Mbps, ranking below Thailand, China, Hong Kong and Singapore.
In March this year, the government allowed 100 percent foreign direct investment in online retail marketplaces-electronic platforms that connect buyers and sellers.
India's e-commerce giants battle a survival of the fittest. As competition grows, and international competitors step in, domestic online retailers will struggle, experts predict.
US retailer Amazon became the second-largest online marketplace by shipments in India last month, after domestic rival Flipkart, pushing former number two, Snapdeal, to third place.
Flipkart's growth has virtually stalled since the middle of last year and the leadership team hasn't figured out a way to kick-start sales, according to India Value Fund Advisors partner Haresh Chawla.
"Its gross merchandise volume (GMV) - sales or revenue in online retailing - sold over a given period of time has not grown substantially, which had grown by over 200 percent per annum for the past three years," Chawla added.
Similarly in the taxi business, multinational Uber is in the race with India's Ola, the current domestic market leader. Last month, Uber claimed it would overtake Ola by market share within 30 days. Jabong - an online fashion portal - reported a drop in sales and cut losses in 2015 and is now struggling to find a buyer.
"Consumer internet start-ups find it difficult to navigate slowdowns," said Chawla. "Traditional companies usually recover from these cycles. But technology-led companies simply go bust. They have very little consumer loyalty to start with. Most bribe consumers to grow rapidly and cut back (on profits), causing them to implode."

Nikole Hannah-Jones Is Teaching '1619' Seminar At Howard University This Fall
The course will be open to all students and could have a significant impact in opening up the minds of young and talented Black individuals and help shape future leaders.

World-renowned investigative journalist and Pulitzer Prize winner Nikole Hannah-Jones will be introducing a brand new seminar to Howard University this fall.
The creator of the "1619 Project," an initiative that launched a nationwide discussion on the role of slavery and how it has influenced the fabric of this nation, announced Monday that she will be bringing those same teachings to "the Mecca" of historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs).
MORE: The Critical Race Theory Explainer Every White Person Should Read
"Howard University students: I'm teaching a seminar on the #1619Project this semester," Hannah-Jones tweeted. "Join us as we deconstruct the essays as works of journalism & historical argument, discuss critiques & the role of journalism versus historiography. Open to majors, non-majors: 91313 – MJFC 315 – 01"
"Students will also debate the role of journalists, historians, and politicians in shaping national identity and policy," Hannah-Jones continued in a Twitter thread. "They will engage the critiques of the project, efforts to legislate against the project, as well as read and discuss paired and companion texts. We will also be in conversation with the historians and writers who created the text. I am excited for this semester. Can't wait to learn with you!"
Last year, Hannah-Jones was involved in a public tenure battle with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. After UNC finally agreed to grant her tenure following a controversial back and forth played out in the press, Hannah-Jones shocked everyone by deciding that she would accept a similar position offered by Howard University.
"I really wanted to take my talents and the resources I could bring and bring them to an institution that was actually built for Black uplift and Black excellence, that wasn't built in opposition to the work that I want to do and me as a human being," Hannah-Jones told NPR's Here and Now in the days after announcing her Howard gig.
The New York Times journalist is now looking to establish her impact on the next generation of Black students at one of the most prominent HBCUs in the country.
"I've spent my entire life proving that I belong in elite white spaces that were not built for Black people," she told Gayle King at the time during an appearance on Good Morning America. "I decided I didn't want to do that anymore. That Black professionals should feel free, and actually perhaps an obligation, to go to our own institutions and bring our talents and resources to our own institutions and help to build them up as well."
"To be able to bring that type of resources to a university that always punches above its weight, I'm so excited," Hannah-Jones added. "Something great came out of this."

Sholom Rubashkin was greeted by well-wishers upon his return to his home in Monsey, New York.
A contingent of religious Jews lined up on a highway near Donald Trump's home at his Mar-a-Lago resort in South Florida to thank him for commuting the sentence of Sholom Rubashkin.
Trump commuted Rubashkin's sentence Wednesday night. Rubashkin was serving a 27 year sentence for committing fraud as owner of a major kosher meat processing plant in Postville, Iowa.
Carrying signs and accompanied by cameramen, men in black fedoras waited for Trump to depart from the airport on his way to his estate.

Costly diplomas: Student loan debt at all-time high
$130,000 in student loan debt. 88 jobs applications. Six months to find a job.
For a recent Belmont graduate, these numbers represent the reality of his current financial situation.
After four and a half years, the business administration major, who asked that his name not be used, left Belmont with a diploma that cost more than he bargained for.
"I've got roughly $130,000 in student debt [after accounting for interest]. Most of that is under the unsubsidized loans," he said. His parents are willing to shoulder $60,000, but the rest is his responsibility.
And in May, he has to start paying it back, whether or not he has found employment.
Students all across the nation are taking on more student debt than before. The average student loan debt for graduates of 2010 was $25,250, a 5 percent increase compared to the class of 2009, according the to College Access & Success Project on student debt. Belmont's is slightly higher at $29,207.
The report also stated that the average would be much higher without the increase in government financial aid.
According the to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the U.S. Department of Education, Americans now have outstanding student loan debt that exceeds $1 trillion, which is, for the first time ever, more than the total credit card debt.
A poor economy has played a major factor in the growing gap between rising tuition and what students and parents can actually afford.
Universities have steadily increased costs. Belmont's tuition for the 2011-2012 school year is $23,770, an increase of $620 a semester and a 5.5 percent increase from 2010-2011. Those figures don't include housing, meal plans or textbooks.
The recent business grad said the economic downturn was key in the massive amount of debt he accumulated.
"At the time [of applying to Belmont] my family standings were decent but my dad lost his job halfway through my time at school," the source said. "He had to cash out his 401K and pension to just pay off the mortgage on the house. Before that, my parents did what they could to help me out, but with their finances I was pretty much on my own."
Because of his family's financial standing when he was entering his freshman year, he received only the federal loans information in his financial aid packet.
Sophomore year was the only year he received a scholarship: a non-renewable scholarship for $4,000.
Current sophomore Katie Gleerup, a nursing major, said a small financial aid package led to the accumulation of a large amount of student debt for tuition and other expenses.
"I don't know the exact number off the top of my head. … After this semester at $32,000 a year, I would assume it's close to $64,000," Gleerup said.
"Even though I had good grades in high school, I don't receive any merit scholarships from here and I guess my need wasn't great enough for any need-based funds," Gleerup said.
Patricia Smedley, director of Student Financial Services, explained the process for awarding financial aid packages to the Vision via email.
"Admitted freshmen are considered for merit- and need-based scholarships based on their overall application file in the context of the overall pool of admitted freshmen," Smedley said.
Need-based financial aid is determined by the U.S. Department of Education after the Free Application for Student Aid is submitted.
"Belmont remains committed to supporting students in financing their education," Smedley said in her email response.
During his first two years at Belmont, the grad who asked not to be identified didn't have a job to help alleviate the costs, forcing all living expenses to be included in the loans.
His first year alone put him $35,000 in the red.
Prior to applying for the loans each year, he said he sat down with his family and calculated food, gas, utilities and other living expenses.
When his parents cashed out the 401K following his dad's job loss, their income rose — when they reported it on paper. Because of the family's perceived income increase, he was unable to successfully petition for a hardship reduction on tuition.
He said he thought he would have to transfer, but thanks to a new job for his father, he was able to find a way to finish at Belmont.
"When my dad got a new job in Birmingham, the income showed more positively which meant we could apply for a parent plus," the source said. "It was a last resort. This was the only way I could get through Belmont."
He had worked out a payment plan with his parents prior to starting school. His parents would pay for four years of in-state tuition and expenses or two years out of state, reducing his obligation to $70,000.
As far as the time frame for repaying the loans, he said he is taking things one step at a time. But ready or not, students must begin repaying student loans six months after graduation.
"I haven't looked too much into the time it will take me to pay it off," he said. "The APR stuff is scary, too much to handle while I'm trying to find a job."
The high interest rates have some students looking for an alternative.
"I've been considering lots of things. One of them is there are programs for nursing major that if you go in for teaching, they'll pay off your loans once you start teaching," Gleerup said.
The overall unemployment rate for the class of 2010 is 9.1 percent, the highest yet, compared to the 2009 when the rate was 8.7 percent.
"That's the fun part about coming out of college in the worst job market since the '70s," the source who wanted to remain anonymous said.
For now, he's working at a part-time job that allows him to work as many hours as he can and still have time to keep searching for full-time work, preferably in the field he prepared for.
Even students like senior Rachel Kesselem, who has no debt to shoulder, are nervous about the job market and is hedging her bets by heading back to her parents' house for a while.
"I'll move back to Cleveland, Ohio. Yeah, I know, 'Oh boy, the basement,'" Kesselem said. "It's the next right move with the economy the way it is."
For Kesselem, this is just a temporary stop before she moves ahead with her career.
"I'll be able to save up a nest egg, plus the arrangements won't be forever. One or two years tops," she said. "I do recognize how awesome it is to be graduating without debt … don't want to waste it."
The business grad too, is prepping for his future, but for now it seems his options are all shaped by his student loan debt.
"Current plans are to get a job and pay my loans back. That's the first thing I say when people ask me what I'm going to do," he said.
The source eventually plans to take the LSAT and the GMAT and would like to get a Ph.D. in finance.

Remember that article from the New England Journal of Medicine I linked to a few days ago? I should have looked her up when I noticed the JD next to her name. An intrepid reader did, and she's with a Califnornia law firm, and filed a brief supporting Chicago in McDonald. The brief was not cited, despite the fact that it was essentially a justification for total firearms prohibition.
I anxiously await the New England Journal of Medicine taking editorial articles from actual practicing pro-gun doctors, of which I seem to have a number of among my readers.
I note that the NEJM piece was actually an editorial, which is not peer reviewed at all, rather than an article, which is peer reviewed and subject to criticism before publication.
If I were her I'd want a ban on pitchforks and torches. Yech.
I actually just got into a debate over peer review. 'Subject to Criticism' is a misnomer as the editor decides who gets sent the paper for review. There have been lots of controversies over the current system since it tends to be heavily biased, leading to stinging critiques by the editors of JAMA and Lancet as well as symposiums on different methods to improve it.
Don't forget pro-gun med students too!
I'll grant that the piece she wrote was an editorial. However, publishing it in what is supposed to be a medical journal is an effort to bootstrap the writer's bias into something that looks "expert" and "medical." We are supposed to be wowed, I suppose. Ho, hum.
Maybe journals pretending to science should avoid publishing editorials at all. Aren't there enough places for opinion?
And, more to the point: If a doctor is going to editorialize by pretending that her medical expertise encompasses into its scope all manner of non-doctorish things, then she is fair game.
I bet all of you gun owning doctors out there–and I know there are lots of you–are pretty disgusted.
We have to have our opinions signed off by an attending and reviewed by the resident. Then we are allowed to have an opinion on this issue.
@jones — I'm actually all for robust rights. My point: individuals should make informed decisions about whether or not to exercise those rights.
@Thirdpower — see @Mikee above.
@One of the women — Thanks for the link. I agree with Wheeler — Doctors should not use a doctor-patient relationship to advance a political agenda of any kind. Same with the conscientious objection argument. Keep your politics out of the exam room and treat the patient. It's an exam room, not a bully pulpit.
@MJM — Goal was to provide some food for thought for physicians. Again, the piece doesn't speak for the NEJM board. See @ Mikee above.
@Pete — Don't let medical training squelch you. It's brutal. Hope you come out on the other end with your opinions intact or at least challenged in a meaningful, thoughtful way. Hope it's more than just hazing. Good luck.


Bog plants love moist, wet soil. While some of these plant selections can be grown submerged in water, most cannot tolerate standing water for long periods of time. Ideal locations would be marshy areas, along river banks, ponds or streams or places that receive water run-off such as those by down spouts or areas where water collects for a time.

Meek Mill took to IG to offer his support for Troy Ave who is currently fighting for his life. Troy Ave was officially charged Monday with attempted murder and criminal possession of a weapon in Manhattan Criminal Court firing his firearm at Irving Plaza in New York City.
The laws they made ain't designed to protect us! "They like get killed or get a 100 years" Don't let the press "gas" you to go against ya own people! Because if that was a cop Tryna protect his life the police force gone stand behind them 100% "Pic look crazy" #freetroy & never let these "bum a-- nobody "sucka" crab in the barrel dudes pull you down! Most of the time it's all for attention…. that's all these bustas be wanting forreal!
Troy, 33, whose real name is Roland Collins, was ordered held without bail until trial despite requesting a $50,000 bail from the Judge Ushir Pandit Durant.
Troy Ave's attorneys told the judge their client is the victim in the incident. Three people, including Troy Ave, were wounded in the incident. Troy's friend and bodyguard Ronald (Edgar) McPhatter suffered a fatal gunshot wound.
McPhatter is seen in surveillance footage entering the green room behind Troy Ave, and then running past him as shots were fired.
He was shot in the stomach, fell downstairs and collapsed near a bar. He later died at Mount Sinai Israel Hospital.
Troy's attorneys plan to present scientific evidence that show the rapper didn't shoot himself or McPhatter.
T.I., the headliner of the event held at Irving Plaza Concert Hall, took to Twitter to offer his condolences to families affected by the tragedy.
"My heart is heavy today. Our music is intended to save lives, like it has mine and many others. My heartfelt condolences to the family that suffered the loss and my prayers are with all those injured," he wrote.

Football season usually begins at every level of competition in the month of September. Preseason is over, the players are in shape, their positions have been determined, and the playbook has been memorized. Teams and the fans who follow them are ready to go. I am no exception. Some of my colleagues have nicknamed me Senator Duck, because of my undying support for my alma mater, the University of Oregon.
On Sept. 28, we legislators, Senator Duck included, began what might be called a preseason. The Oregon Legislature is scheduled to kick off Jan. 22, 2019. Everything leading up to January is like a preseason. We are getting ready to compete.
Sept. 28 was the deadline for submitting legislative concepts we want to introduce as bills in the 2019 Legislative Session. Each senator or representative may submit as many bills as he or she wishes, if the deadline is met. My staff and I have been working for months on my list of bills. We held town hall meetings, heard from constituents, worked with associations, met with other legislators and listened, and listened, and listened. At the 5 p.m. deadline, we submitted forms for 48 bills. These 48 bills will be my initial playbook for the upcoming session.
A football team's playbook includes specific plays, with specific player responsibilities. Every play is unique with different players on the field for each play and alignment. The one position on the field usually remaining consistent is the quarterback, and in Senator Duck's playbook, that would be me. I am the one who has the responsibility to help make the play successful, or change it at the line of scrimmage.
I am pleased and excited about the plays we have. Here is a big picture breakdown without going into a lot of detail. (In fact, the details are currently being written up by the bill writers in legislative counsel.) Of the 48 bills, 28 are what I call constituent bills: 10 of those came from town hall meetings attended by county and city leaders, and the remainder are from citizens who asked for their issue to be part of the senator's playbook. And I am pleased to run with them.
One of the worst fires in Oregon, the Substation Fire, burned 80,000 acres in Wasco and Sherman counties this past summer. As a result of a meeting with farmers and rural fire districts held in Sherman County in August, six bills are being introduced.
Eighteen of the 48 bills have an agriculture or natural resource focus, from elk damage to estate tax reform. Two of the bills are being submitted at the request of the CTUIR.
Will every bill we introduce be successful? Probably not, but we are going to try. We all know not every play produces a touchdown every time it is run. Some of our bills were unsuccessful in the previous session, but they were important and we are going to run with them again.
Part of the preseason is to get the right players ready to go. Figure out what opposition there might be and why, and adjust your play accordingly. Sometimes a pass play becomes a running play at the line of scrimmage because of the alignment of the opposition. And we will add plays as the season progresses.
But for now, our playbook is being drafted, and later it will be refined, as we get ready for the season (I mean session) to begin. I am grateful for the different members of the team from throughout the district, who helped craft the plays that are in our playbook. I believe we have a very good chance of crossing the goal line with the vast majority of them. I am looking forward to kickoff.
Senator Bill Hansell is a 1967 graduate of the University of Oregon, as is his wife, Margaret. They were college sweethearts and were married spring break of their senior year. The senator will root for the Beavers, but not when they play the Ducks!

This unit is only offered to cohorts.
This unit examines the challenge of leading improvement in numeracy and mathematics teaching, which involves establishing possible goals for teaching, establishing relevant baselines, using evidence to inform planning and teaching, establishing interim targets, and considering processes for prompting and supporting teacher improvement. This includes examination of models of teaching mathematics and models of numeracy teacher learning and the challenges associated with the various models. In particular the E5 model for planning teaching and evaluating teaching mathematics and numeracy will be examined in detail and the ways that this can be used to inform teacher self-evaluation. The unit also includes the processes for gathering evidence about numeracy teaching and student learning, the processes for analysing such evidence and the techniques of preparing reports that can serve as an initiator of improvement.
consider the approaches and processes of whole school numeracy and mathematics plans.

Ole Miss Scores with $96.5M Stadium
More items for Color + Design
With college basketball conference play in full gear, the University of Mississippi has another "win" to celebrate. Ole Miss recently opened the doors of its new $96.5 million multi-purpose arena in Oxford, MS.
The Pavilion at Ole Miss is the home court to the university's basketball programs and also hosts graduation ceremonies, concerts and other university-wide events.
Work on the facility began July 2014 and was completed earlier this month, according to a project announcement. A weekend celebration, including a ribbon-cutting and the first men's and women's games, took place Jan. 7-10.

After two and a half years of construction, the University of Mississippi has opened its new high-profile arena, said to be a campus cornerstone.
University officials describe the project as the "crown jewel" of the Forward Together fundraising campaign and expect the arena to become a cornerstone of campus life and fan favorite.
Designed by AECOM Technology, an architecture and engineering firm based in Kansas City, MO, the 225,000 square-feet facility boasts a curved and colonnaded entrance façade that echoes The Pavilion's sweeping, curved roof.
BL Harbert International (Birmingham, AL)—the builder behind several other Southeastern Conference arenas, including Auburn University's basketball arena—led the construction of the project.
The facility consists of a three-story, structural steel frame supporting steel trusses, according to project details.
AECOM says the series of Doric columns at the facility's main entrance reference the southern traditional architectural style of the Ole Miss campus.
The Pavilion offers seating for more than 9,600 fans, includes a concourse, locker rooms, suites for players and coaches, training facilities, and premium-club areas: a Courtside Club, All-American Suites and The Pavilion Club.
A five-story parking garage, with more than 800 spaces, was also built to accommodate both fans and students at Ole Miss.
Raise the Roof
Figuring predominately in the game plan for the project was its barrel roof.
The roof was clad in metal paneling manufactured by ACI Building Systems LLC and coated with Valspar's Fluropon 70 percent PVDF coating in Terra Cotta, described as a rich earth-tone hue.
Valspar says the coating used features dirt and stain resistant properties, and durability in all sorts of weather conditions. The Ultra-Lok panel system is mechanically seamed to offer weather resistance and is expected to be practically maintenance free, according to ACI.
The metal panel system and coating combination will provide the university with a long-lasting roofing system, Valspar notes.
Other coatings and finishes used on the project were supplied by Tnemec and Sherwin-Williams, according to the general contractor.
