December 2019 Activity Summary Report
For further information: www.mqg.co.il
Our petition to the High Court of Justice forced Netanyahu to resign from his four roles as minister of Health, Agriculture, Welfare and Diaspora Affairs
Only following our petition to the High Court and after many weeks of his deliberate breaching of the law, Netanyahu announced his resigning from all his four ministerial roles due to his being indicted. It is indeed a significant advance albeit not sufficient; we call the Court to order the PM to resign from all of his roles, including this as Prime Minister.
Thanks to our petition, High Court suspended the appointment of an acting State Attorney that Minister Ohana tried to pass contrary to professional opinion
Temporary Minister of Justice Ohana tried, contrary to the opinion of professionals, to appoint as acting State Attorney a person who was lacking relevant experience. This was done while the current government is transitional so that there is severe suspicion that it is all about an attempt of producing targeted elimination of the State Attorney's Office and that it is linked mainly to the PM's investigation files. Due to this severe suspicion of the appointment being based on extraneous considerations, we petitioned to the High Court of Justice whose judges suspended the appointment – much to our satisfaction. Ohana is a temporary minister in a transitional, exceptional, government; his appointment was not confirmed by the Knesset and therefore did not gain the Public's trust. In such a situation, a temporary minister should only preserve the given state of affairs until a permanent government is established and receives the Knesset's trust. A temporary minister should not deal in such critical appointments and surely not to push, against expert stance, the appointment of a professionally lower-grade person whose relevant experience is insufficient.
Thousands of citizens joined our struggle against increase in Knesset Members' salaries; many KMs have already given up the additional sum
At the year's onset each Knesset member is about to receive ILS 1,232 salary addition. This issue has been on the agenda in spite of the Knesset having been on a sort of vacation for a whole year now, hence we regarded the issue as inappropriate and dishonest. Thousands of citizens joined our campaign and demonstration against this scandalous raise. Attentive to our criticism, some KMs notified the Knesset's accountant of their giving up the addition while others announced they will donate this sum to social organizations. Regretfully, the rest of the KMs disregarded the public demand not to accept the raise.
Discussing our petition that demands to expose the document confirmed selling German submarine to Egypt
In Tel Aviv District Court we asked from the Ministry of Defense to find – and release – the document relating to the submarine deal between Germany and Egypt. People in the Ministry claimed that though they searched for it, they couldn't find the document. Considering the State's security, this conduct is unsettling and raises severe questions. How come a document so critical to the State's security simply disappears? The Ministry of Defense could, at least, confirm or deny its existence. Regretfully, people in the Ministry evade replying to this so very simple question and keep telling us about the efforts invested in looking for the document, resulting in not knowing its whereabouts but assuming that it is not in their possession. The Public is entitled to know whether the document exists or not. Following this development we demanded a State Attorney examination and the establishing of criminal investigation of documents' disappearance from ministries.
We stopped an illegitimate appointment of a CEO for El'ad municipality
About a month ago El'ad's city council intended to appoint Shai Natan as the municipality's CEO in spite of his incomplete cooling-off period – as required by the Municipal Ordinance – after serving in the City Council. We contacted the Ministry of Interiors promptly and demanded answers concerning this questionable appointment, arguing that this is an essentially invalid appointment. Later on the Ministry announced that this appointment was indeed incompatible with the threshold conditions for the office of a municipality CEO, an office that demands a cooling-off period, and so it was cancelled. We were pleased to have the Ministry joining our stance of denying improper appointments in the Civil Service.
We contacted the Attorney General: a minister in a transitional government should not appoint a permanent Police Inspector General
Appointing a permanent Police Inspector General in time of a transitional government is a totally problematic issue. Several weeks ago the Attorney General permitted Minister of Interiors Erdan to appoint a permanent Police Inspector General after he himself (the AG) detailed to the Minister of Justice the profound complication of appointing law enforcement and gate-keeping factors by members of a transitional government. This situation affects the reasonability range of the government's actions. In order to ensure the Inspector General's independence of the appointing factor, the political influence on the appointment must be as minimal as possible. Accordingly, the outgoing PM and his government's members should not appoint anyone to any senior positions so that the mission of appointing will be secured for both future elected PM and government.
A bit of the Movement's activity this month regarding municipal issues
We submitted a request for Freedom of Information in Tel Aviv Dolphinarium Affair * We had written to more than 100 local authorities that failed to issue Freedom of Information reports as is ordered by the Law * We contacted the water authority, the Minister of the Interior, and over 50 municipal water corporations that breached the law and harmed all of us financially *We addressed Bney Brak, Haife, Or Yehuda, El'ad, Ramat Hasharon, Beyt Aryeh and Kiryat Yam municipalities regarding irregularities and inappropriate appointments * We issued several communications regarding inappropriate appointments and suspicions of improper use of finances in local authorities * We demanded from the Ministry of the Interior to examine the lack of internal auditors appointments in local authorities.
More from the Movement's Desk for this month
We argued in High Court of Justice that an indicted person should not be enabled to form a government; we demanded from the Knesset Chairman to discuss Netanyahu's and other KMs' immunity * We demanded from the Attorney General and from Minister of Justice Ohana to investigate the affairs of Effi Naveh * We acted concerning irregularities in the Chief Rabbinate * We firmly objected to bypassing the committee and to the amendment in the Party Funding Law by which the current parties will receive extra budgeting * We issued a letter of protest against an inappropriate appointment in The Ministry of Welfare's Youth Sponsorship * We appeared in a discussion of IDF's special committee for examining the forgery of numbers in ultra orthodox recruitment data; we appeared in a Knesset committee that discussed this issue and we also demanded from relevant factors to start a criminal investigation of it * We demanded from the Ministry of Finance to investigate an unlawful conduct concerning review budgets in Israel Lands Authority * We contacted the National Emergency Authority regarding the supply of shielding in the south of the country and along conflict lines in general * We issued an urgent letter to the State Comptroller regarding his order to his office staff to avoid collaborating with the police * We demanded from the State Comptroller not to postpone the publication of reports of parties funding and reports of funding the elections in local authorities and in the two previous Knesset elections campaigns * We petitioned for Freedom of Information regarding the operating of Ministry of Health's methadone centers * We sent an urgent letter to the Knesset regarding the issue of increasing the elections budget; we have been considering to petition accordingly * We issued a Freedom of Information request to the Ministry of Transport and to the Israeli Ports Authority concerning Haifa Port's Israel-China agreement * We required information concerning the reasons for granting amnesty to Nohi Dankner; we asked President Rivlin to refrain from confirming this amnesty * We continued procedures against the Ministry of Transport regarding the establishing of criteria for allowing driving in public traffic routes and for using emergency light&sound devices in vehicles *We delivered depositions supporting a request for protection order for a whistleblower in the Ministry of Defense * We addressed the State Comptroller and the Registrar of Associations concerning suspicion of alleged corruption in the Football Referees Association * We participated in a special lobby for discussing the status of law-enforcing authorities * We addressed the Knesset and the Government concerning the blocking the responds of citizens on internet pages financed by public money * We demanded from the Police Department for Internal Investigations to examine the striking of Ben Gurion Airport security guard * we contacted the Minister of Education concerning irregular payments of parents whose children are educated in national-religious schools.

Sunshine Law Shows Bite
Supporters of the Missouri Sunshine Law often have been heard to say the law lacks teeth. Its bite is not strong enough to cause pain. That's been true in many court decisions.
The city of Raytown, a Kansas City suburb, has been ordered to pay $42,000 in legal fees for an open records request violation.
The issue was the city's denial of a request for information about the safety of an intersection where a 64-year-old woman was killed in a 2016 traffic accident. The lady's family filed a wrongful death lawsuit, which is pending.
Jackson County Circuit Judge S. Margene Burnett said the city clerk of Raytown had adopted a policy of refusing any records to anyone who filed a claim against the city. The judge called it a "knowing and purposeful violation of the Missouri Sunshine Law," and said the city tried to use the law "as a shield to hide behind."
The Raytown city attorney said the city will appeal the decision.
Regardless how the appeal does in court, cities should take note of what appears to be an obvious violation of the Sunshine Law.
Every official in every municipality should be familiar with the Sunshine Law, especially city clerks as it pertains to public records and requests for records.

The Otaku House
Outside? Where you're going there is no outside...
Don't you just hate spoilers? I do, too. That's why I always try to include warnings. However, I sometimes ramble a bit too much here or there and maybe a few (or many) key plot points slip without me giving proper notice. So I'd like to include a blanket spoiler warning for the weary internet travelers of the world: Here There Be Spoilers. You've been warned.
The Dissociation of Haruhi Suzumiya by Nagaru Tanigawa
I am reluctant to review this book because the book itself is not a complete work. By that I mean that there is no conclusion. This book contains the prologue and first three chapters of a longer tale that has yet to be published in America. At least for another month. Next month The Surprise of Haruhi Suzumiya will be delivered directly to my Kindle and I will be able to finish this story, but until then I will just sort of be scratching my head.
We start off with the SOS Brigade in its second year, trying to recruit new members from the batch of incoming freshman. However, things take a bizarre turn (or do they?) when Kyon meets up with an old classmate as well as a few familiar faces who might or might not mean ill will toward the brigade.
The prologue and the first chapter start off like a normal Tanigawa adventure might. We have Haruhi's hijinks, Kyon's snarkiness, and some behind-the-scenes trouble brewing. Then things get a little interesting in chapter two as the story splits into two different plotlines. By that I mean that at the end of chapter one Kyon gets a phone call and the caller in chapter two is revealed to be either a girl that Kyon doesn't know or a girl named Sasaki that Kyon knew from middle school. Both scenarios are told as if they are both true so we don't really know which plotline is real or maybe if both are somehow real. From there the two plotlines continue to diverge with no explanation as to why.
Then things just stop at the end of chapter three and I am forced to wait until The Surprise of Haruhi Suzumiya to start chapter four.
So the jury is out.
But the verdict is looking good if the second part can deliver and hopefully wrap everything up. I really do like the idea of one story telling two different ones simultaneously. The only difficult thing is keeping track of what is happening in story A versus what is happening in story B since the two stories are told in a mostly alternating pattern.

The formalized organization is critical for the organization in which issues are known and changes are implemented slowly and purposefully. Be sure to cover the following topics: • Why you started the business. A formalized structure typically includes multiple layers of supervision, including top-level directors or department heads, middle managers and operational supervisors. A firm that sells, installs, and services computer networks, for example, may separate those functions into independent divisions. It's also important to explain how you will manage your inventory.

For example, perhaps your chief operating officer previously worked for a company that used a network of independent contractors to provide handyman services.

"It takes a lifetime for someone to discover Greece, but it only takes an instant to fall in love with her". In just one sentence, the flattering words of American writer Henry Miller managed to capture the essence of Greece.
Maybe it's the allure of the city having been the first capital of modern Greece; maybe it's the combination of its breath-taking beaches and picturesque alleys; maybe it's the fact that Nafplio carries the same aesthetic as Athens' Plaka, only ten folds. Whichever the reason, Nafplio is arguably one of the most striking and romantic cities of Greece, dearly beloved by both locals and visitors, proving Henry Miller's quote nothing short of true.
On its -already excessive- pros list, being only 2 hours away from Athens is pretty high up, making Nafplio, the capital of the regional unit of Argolis, an excellent short getaway destination in Greece. Here, we suggest how to spend two days in Nafplio, the seaport town in the Peloponnese that expands up to the north end of the Argolic Gulf and has managed to capture the hearts of people worldwide.
Kick off your first day in Nafplio with a luscious breakfast made with fresh, Greek ingredients, to fuel yourself with the energy you will need for the long day of exploration ahead. From trendy avocado on toast to healthy yogurt and granola bowls, 'Gallika Salon de The & French Bakery' has it all and then some! Its hospitable staff and cozy atmosphere add to its overall merit, making it a must-have culinary experience. Following your breakfast, it is time to infuse your trip with Greek history and culture; both elements that can be found in abundance in Nafplio. Visit two of the most historically significant and culturally emblematic castles in Greece, Palamidi and Akronafplia. Palamidi is built on a high hill in the east of Akronafplia at a height of 216m. It was fortified by the Venetians and resembles a typical Baroque fortress. In 1715, the castle was occupied by the Turks until 1822 when Greeks earned it back. You can access Palamidi either by car or, for the more adventurous, by climbing up the legendary 999 steps from the center of the city (which are actually 857). Once you're there, don't forget to explore the castle, the Venetian fortress of the early 18th century, St. Andrew's Church, and the prison where national Greek hero Theodoros Kolokotronis was held in 1834. Akronafplia's castle is on a rocky peninsula that used to be the Acropolis of Nafplion in antiquity. It is accessible only from the north through an artificial historic ravine called Arvanitia. The current form of Akronafplia's castle, albeit quite altered by contemporary interventions, came to be between the 13th and 16th century. Akronafplia, however, carries a much longer history, which is evident through its walls, part of which are cyclopean.
In the shadow of Palamidi, right at the base of the infamous 999 steps, one can find Nafplio's farmer's market every Wednesday and Saturday, from 7 am to 2.30 pm. Don't miss the opportunity to browse through the local products and even buy some to taste or take with you back home. After you've explored the riches of the Greek land, enjoy a long, unwinding walk along Nafplio's seaside. The striking view of the sea along with the salty breeze will lull you into a state of complete and utter relaxation; exactly what you need from your weekend getaway. The walk around Arvanitia towards Karathonas bay is about 3 km (one hour) long and it starts from Arvanitia, the edge of the beach, and goes around the rock Akronafplia. By now, your stomach must be rumbling and we can't possibly let this be! Pay a visit to one of the most picturesque taverns of Nafplio, 'Psiras', in the districts of Provonia, in a beautiful narrow street at the foothills of Palamidi. 'Psiras' is a family tavern and it also tastes and feels like one! Delicious Greek homemade delicacies wait for you to try them, with the fresh tomato sauce meatballs, crispy pork chops, and mizithra cheese pie being our personal favorites. Good food, delicious local wines, and reasonable prices; you just can't go wrong!
After some much-needed rest, get ready to embark on a night adventure in the magnificent city of Nafplio, which reaches fairytale status lit up under the night sky. Since we all agree that all the walking has earned you the right to indulge in dessert, don't hesitate to grab an ice cream and take a night stroll around the old Parliament of Nafplio, the Syntagma Square and the 'Trianon' theater, finding your way through the city's narrow streets, where you can also do some souvenir shopping. The popular ice cream shop in Anapli, called 'Antica Gelateria di Roma', offers handmade ice cream made from fresh ingredients, rid of nasty fake colors and conservatives. If you'd prefer to go for something a bit more traditional, you can have delicious loukoumades -a traditional doughnut-like Greek dessert- drenched in honey or chocolate at 'Kentrikon', located at the central Syntagma square. Your walk around Nafplio's streets is going to be filled with beautiful scenery and evidence of the city's rich history. Syntagma Square is the most central and historical square of Nafplion, where you can gaze at important historic buildings, such as the Venetian Warehouse of the Fleet, where Nafplio's Archaeological Museum, the old Parliament, and 'Trianon' theater are housed. 'Trianon' is one of the original Ottoman mosques built during the first Ottoman period. Having been used as a mosque, a Christian temple, and the first all-male school in the past, in 1915 it was transformed into a conservatory and theater, and then to a municipal cinema under the name 'Trianon'. With Nafplio being the cultural center of Argolis, don't forget to take full advantage of its various events, plays, and concerts. Don't forget to check out what's going on at the time of your stay, and enhance your experience in Nafplio through artistic and social stimuli!
Tip: To discover Nafplio through the eyes of a local, book a Nafplio walking tour and experience the highlights of the city!
Your second day in the city of Nafplio will be just as adventurous and exciting as your first one, so a rich breakfast is once again due. This time, we highly suggest you try 'Kalimera'. The small, cozy place with a warm atmosphere and a name that means 'good morning' in Greek, is definitely worth a visit for breakfast, with only a few tables and a small -yet delicious- traditional Greek menu ensuring a sweet start to your day. After you've filled your belly with mouthwatering treats, it's time for a boat ride to Bourtzi, the Venetian castle located on the islet of Agioi Theodoroi in the middle of the port of Nafplion, about 400 meters from the pier. You can reach the islet easily by boat, which you can find right in front of Nafplio's port. The boat ride is about 10-minutes long, while the experienced captains are friendly and will generously offer you advice and tips for your trip. Bourtzi ceased to be used as a castle after the arrival of King George I and in 1865 it became the place of residence for the guillotine executioners, something that displeased the locals and caused outrage. In the 1930s the castle was turned into a hotel (sad but true), which resulted in the construction of the monument changing drastically. Further to the damage that Bourtzi has gone through already, it was also bombed during World War II. After the end of World War II, Bourtzi was repaired and -once again- operated as a hotel until 1970. Today, Bourtzi hosts various cultural events while a part of it is regularly used for conference purposes.
Tip: The boats leave approximately every 10 minutes and the two-way ticket costs 4.50 €.
Following your return from Bourtzi, you can explore the variety of museums Nafplion has to offer. The Koboloi museum in Nafplio is the first-ever museum for worry bead across the world, founded in Nafplio in 1998 by the Evangelinos couple. The museum exhibits consists of a historical collection of worry beads -or koboloi in greek- that have origins in Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, Catholic, and Greek cultures. The museum's objective is to conserve the traditional Greek koboloi, having attracted more than 150000 visitors from the day of its establishment. The Museum is housed in a privately-owned two-story building in the old town of Nafplion. The exhibition area is located on the upper floor, while on the ground floor you can find the museum's workshop, as well as the shop of the museum where the works produced in the workshop are sold. The Archaeological Museum of Nafplio is another fascinating museum that's worth your time. It is housed in an impressive Venetian building, built in 1713, which dominates the western side of Syntagma Square and is one of the best-preserved buildings of the Venetian era in Greece. The most significant exhibit of the museum is the Mycenaean armor of the Dendras dating back to the late 15th century B.C, which is the brightest example of Mycenae weapons that has survived to this day. Last but not least, the Peloponnesian Folklore Foundation will give you insight in both the Greek culture and more specifically the Peloponnesian everyday life across the centuries, along with information on the traditions and customs of the region. The collections of the foundation were set up in 1974 with the initial donation of 6,000 items by Ioanna Papantoniou, while today the exhibit counts 45,000 items directly related to both folk and modern Greek culture. Before heading to your chosen accommodation for a rejuvenating nap, visit Noulis, a meze tavern that is heaven on earth for every foodie out there. Homemade traditional dishes that will leave you stunned to silence, affordable prices and an old-time cook house aesthetic make for an unforgettable Greek gastronomic experience and many great memories for you to take back home. Alternatively, you can choose to experience the Greek cuisine first-hand and join a private cooking class in Nafplio, where you'll have the opportunity to cook traditional local dishes and educate yourself on the Greek cooking culture.
Your last night at Nafplio should be as laid-back as it gets. Therefore, leave behind your curious nature and the long, tiring walks, and enjoy a drink -or two- either at Nafplio' port with a view of the lit-up, beautiful as ever, Bourtzi, or at Syntagma Square, where the heart of the social life of Nafplio beats. 'Mediterraneo wine & Deli' is an excellent wine bar, where you can enjoy a wide selection of local varieties of wine. Hidden in a narrow, picturesque alley, 'Mediterraneo wine & Deli' offers the services of an experienced sommelier along with a selection of local, high-quality cheeses and cold meats in a unique, visually-aesthetic environment! If wine is not your thing, opt for 'Black Cat', one of our favorite bars and not just because it has a resident 'pub cat' often found sleeping on the counter. Its tasteful decor and friendly staff contribute to its inviting quality, while the delicious cocktails and good music contribute to its visitors always having an excellent time!
Due to its close proximity to Athens and its unmatched beauty, Nafplio is one of the best weekend getaway destinations you can find in Greece, with tons of things to do and see. Hurry up and book a trip to the majestic Nafplio; you won't regret it!

Hulu Introduces New Ad Tool for SMBs: What Marketers Need to Know
Martina Bretous
Hulu gave us "The Handmaid's Tale," then gave us "Little Fires Everywhere." So, personally, I don't need another reason to love the streaming platform. But if I had a small business, I would have just gotten one.
In July 2020, Hulu announced Hulu Ad Manager, a self-service advertising platform designed for smaller advertisers with limited budgets.
Previously, Hulu ads were only accessible to top brands with the finances to fund large campaigns. Now, small- and mid-size businesses (SMBs) can reach the platform's 92 million ad-supported viewers without dishing out thousands of dollars.
So, how exactly does the Ad Manager work? We'll cover that and more below.
How to Use Hulu's Ad Service
Currently, Hulu's self-service solution is in the beta phase.
To access the platform as a beta user, you must first submit an RSVP form with information on your business.
If accepted, setting up your ad is easy. Here are the steps.
1. Select the dates within which you want to run your ad campaign.
2. Build your audience.
On Hulu Ad Manager, you can target users by age, interest, gender, location, and of course show genre. When it comes to location, you can narrow it down by state, city, ZIP code, or a designated marketing area (DMA).
However, you cannot select which shows you want your ads to run on, only the genre. If you're not sure what will align best with your brand, look through the current show selections to get an idea of what to expect.
3. Set your budget.
To run an ad on Hulu, you must have a minimum budget of $500 per campaign, which is considerably less than the usual cost of ads on streaming platforms. For comparison, Amazon's self-service platform for video ads typically requires a minimum ad spend of $35,000.
4. Upload your video ad.
There are a few requirements your ad must meet to be approved:
Be between 15 to 30 seconds long
Formatted in MP4 or MOV
Be in HD and have stereo sound
Fit the tech specs outlined by Hulu
Comply with Hulu's advertising policies.
The approval process usually takes up to three business days.
5. Make a payment.
Currently, Hulu doesn't accept business bank accounts or debit cards for payments. You must use a credit card. If you choose to pause or cancel your campaign, you will only pay for the delivered impressions.
6. Track your ad performance.
Once your ad is live, you can start tracking its performance in the Hulu Ad Manager.
Note that you will not be able to find out what times your ad aired and during which shows. However, you can expect to find standard metrics, such as impressions and clicks.
Hulu Advertising Options
In addition to Hulu's most recent self-service option, the streaming service also offers two other advertising options:
Premium Programmatic – This is ideal for brands who want to leverage lookalike audiences, audience CRM matching, and behavioral segmenting in their campaign.
Action With Broad Appeal – With this option, you can integrate your brand with Hulu's, create branded content collections, and deliver ads in innovative formats.
Each option caters to your brand's specific goals and can be designed to fit your budget.
For instance, you can run brand lift studies, which are ads designed to measure consumer perception of your brand after a campaign.
Jillian Hope, senior marketing manager of brand advertising at HubSpot, explains that they can help brand advertisers understand the impact Hulu campaign exposure has on key brand KPIs.
Pros and Cons of Hulu Ads
Pro: Hulu has extensive targeting capabilities.
With any one of the three advertising options available on Hulu, you can use Hulu's targeting features to reach your ideal viewers.
"[You have] the ability to define target audiences using Hulu's first-party audience data or leverage lookalike audiences using your own first-party data," said Hope.
The extent of the targeting parameters will depend on which option you are using. For instance, if you are using programmatic buying, you can use lookalike audiences to match the exact users you're looking for with Hulu's viewers.
However, on the current beta version of the self-service solution, you can only target users by demographic and show genre.
Despite this, Hope adds that targeting on a platform like Hulu is much more advanced than it would be with traditional, linear TV.
Pro: Innovative ad formats allow you to experiment.
On Hulu, you're only limited to video commercials if you're using the self-service option. The platform offers over 15 ad products to reach viewers.
"There are multiple ad formats available and lots of innovation happening," said Hope. "For example, [there's the] new QR code integration that is more desirable to direct response advertisers."
It's just a matter of figuring out which ad product best aligns with your goals.
For instance, there's the cover story brand placement, which allows you to seamlessly integrate your branding on Hulu's homepage.
Then, there's the ad selector, which puts the power back in the consumers hands by letting them select which ad they want to see.
These are just a few of the ad formats you can pick from, each one creating a different experience for the user. To see all the ad formats available on Hulu, visit Hulu's ad product page.
Con: You can only accomplish so much with a limited budget.
One of the downsides of Hulu ads is that certain campaigns will require a bigger budget than you may have available.
"Some of the more premium ad placements, as well as brand lift studies, require budget minimums in order to reach statistical significance," said Hope. "So, they are less attainable to smaller advertisers."
In this case, Hulu may not be the best platform on which to run these types of campaigns. You may want to opt for another ad platform, like Facebook Ads, where you can reach more users who still fall within your target audience for less money.
How Hulu Ad Examples Can Inform Your Next Campaign
If you're not ready to pull the trigger on a Hulu campaign, get inspiration in the meantime.
See how other brands – notably your competitors – are using the platform to reach their target audience. This means looking at their creative, reviewing case studies, and monitoring consumer sentiment via social media.
This competitive intelligence can help you devise a strategy during the ideation phase of your campaign.
Given that the Hulu Ad Manager is still in beta, the platform will likely include more features once it fully launches. In the meantime, SMBs can reach TV viewers for a fraction of what it used to cost.

On Thursday 8 November we were joined by Amy and Hannah from Stopgap Dance Company for two CPD opportunities at iC4C.
The day was aimed at Secondary level teachers, specialist and non-specialist and independent dance artists who are leading sessions with young people. As well as exploring some great choreographic tools to support working creatively with young people, the day also explored themes from Stopgap's work Artificial Things, a compulsory study for GCSE dance.
The twilight session was aimed at teachers and practitioners working in, or with an interest in inclusive dance practice.
A big thank you and well done to all those who came and participated, and to Stopgap for facilitating such an inspiring day of workshops.


It has been said that two-thirds of our world's population are oral learners. Oral learners are not necessarily illiterate but are people who prefer to learn through oral form. This means that the majority of the people in our world today learn and communicate best through means that do not involve printed texts. Studies and research tell us that people learn better through songs, proverbs, stories, and visual arts. This is where Orality and Bible Storytelling come into the picture. Orality simply means a reliance upon the spoken, rather than the written word, for communication. Bible Storytelling is simply the vehicle and media by which we communicate God's Word to oral people groups; so that instead of reading God's Word via the printed Bible, people hear God's Word in the form of Bible stories.
Can God's Word be communicated through Bible stories? Of course! It is not a coincidence that the majority of the Bible is made up of genres that appeal very much to the learning styles of oral peoples. Consider this: approximately 60% of the Bible consists of stories, 20% is prophecy, 10% is wisdom, songs and poetry, while the remaining 10% are epistles.
It should not be surprising that most of what God wants us to know is meant to be communicated through the presentation of stories, songs and poetry. Hearing and telling oral Bible Stories breathe life into Scriptures. We are drawn into the narrative of God's Word and details become meaningful. Characters and events from history become real and relevant to our lives. Words in Scripture are now full of life in the manner they demand us to either laugh or cry with the story, to be angry, or compassionate, bewildered, or disgusted.
Oral stories demand attention and invite a reaction. It's relatively easy to put a book down and continue reading later. It's harder to pause in the middle of an oral story being told and it's difficult to remain neutral to a well told story.
We are part of a team that works to craft oral Bible Stories into local languages. In our years of working together, we have the privilege of learning different ways to apply Bible Storytelling to people's lives; each with their individual strengths and usefulness depending on different contexts.
Simply-the-Story (STS) presents an oral approach to studying the Bible. Participants are taught how to tell oral Bible Stories from a print Bible and to use questions to guide a participatory discussion to study the narrative. Participatory discussion means that everybody is invited to engage in the Bible study by sharing views and thoughts on the story and learning together. This is a characteristic in most – if not all – oral people groups. Learning is done in the context of a group and knowledge is kept and shared collectively as a whole.
Story-crafting may not be the emphasis in STS; but it has a fantastic method in conducting oral-based Bible studies. One of the principles guiding STS can be summed up as "slowly and steadily". Participants are encouraged to discuss the Bible story section by section asking questions such as, "What can we learn from what was said/done?", "What were the choices made – What can we learn from them?", and "What were the results and consequences from each choice that was made?". The key here is to go slow and to dig deep. STS believes that there's a lesson to be learned from every Bible story if we would just spend a little longer time in the story.
OneStory projects usually have a goal to craft a set of Bible stories that introduce the Christian God beginning from Creation and ending with Christ. This initial storyset may be a language group's first ever encounter with the Good News. So the team takes special care in selecting Bible stories that listeners will be able to relate closely to with minimum resistance or misunderstanding. In Story-crafting parlance we call these "bridges and barriers". A "bridge" story might be a story of "Jesus calming the storm" crafted for a group of sea-faring people or islanders. An example of a "barrier" story that happened in real life is the story of Jesus calling Peter to follow him. During that encounter, Peter falls at the feet of Jesus declaring himself to be a sinful man following the miraculous haul of fish. After hearing the story a Buddhist monk remarked that of course Peter was sinful. Why? Because he had killed all those fish!
A OneStory crafting team typically consists of a facilitator role and a crafter role. The crafter needs to be a mother-tongue speaker of the language that the Bible stories are being crafted into. The facilitator prepares the source material from which the crafter will "receive" the story – either by listening to audio from Scripture, or by viewing pictures or video about the story. From these, the crafter then tells the story. It may take multiple tellings, but eventually an oral Bible story is crafted. The facilitator also has access to Scripture aids such as dictionaries and commentaries; and ensures that the crafter understands the meaning of the story correctly before crafting the story. Oral Bible stories are then tested, revised if necessary and consultant-checked to ensure the basic principles of good translation still hold: accuracy, clarity, and naturalness.
A strength in OneStory is its documentation process which allows for a project's knowledge base to be recorded and maintained for posterity. This is helpful where a project might want to move on from crafting oral Bible stories to a traditional Bible translation project. Any documentation done during the OneStory project could then be utilised by the Bible translation team. These would include background research on "bridges and barriers", decisions on key-terms, word choices, recorded audio of crafted stories, and other useful material.
Y is an evanglist. He joined our group for a few months learning to tell Bible stories. During one of his regular ministry visits to a bedridden old lady, he decided to tell the story of Jesus healing the bleeding woman while praying for her. The old lady miraculously began to walk because of her faith after hearing that story.
NT works as an accountant. She's never been to bible school or received any formal theological training. She would never be one to share the Good News out of her own initiative. Learning to tell Bible stories has empowered her to share the Good News. Now she goes on hospital visits telling Bible stories about Jesus to patients. When people ask about her faith, she tells them Bible stories in response.
Finally there is AJ. Two and a half years ago, he had never even heard about Bible Storytelling. Today he says that he can't think of a more effective tool to minister with. He tells Bible stories almost exclusively when he preaches or leads bible study groups. He says that people pay more attention whenever he tells Bible stories. He's gotten so good at telling Bible stories that he now goes around training others and raising awareness about Orality and Bible Storytelling.
Storytelling is as old as humanity itself. Ever since God spoke creation into being, our entire history has been one big story that's been told and retold through the generations. In fact telling stories is almost a primal characteristic of being a person. We all have stories to tell and we all long to tell them. Exchanging and telling stories is a basis from which we build relationships. When we invite others to follow Jesus, we're inviting them into a relationship with Him. What better way is there for people to relate to Jesus than by hearing His stories.

Author of the week – N. A. Shoemaker!
N.A. Shoemaker was born in 1989 in Allentown Pennsylvania, and raised in Macungie Pennsylvania. He has been crafting stories since around the age of ten. Since the discovery of two large brain cysts he has vowed to speak through his stories, art, and music to children and adults alike, empowering them to yearn for something more in life. He is the Amazon Bestselling, multi-genre fiction author of the Nightmares in the Dark series for teens/young adults, author & illustrator of "The Magic Gem" (children's book), "Inhibitions" (18+ romance), and his newest book "The Many Adventures of Mason: The Hyper-Nap Collection." He is also working on 2 novels with other authors, and a YA short story.
Ryan Jacobs and his sister Riley never get along, he's almost in high school, and to top it all off, he can't stop having a horrific recurring nightmare.
When his family takes an unexpected vacation, his dream becomes a little TOO real for his liking.
Can you handle his Nightmares in the Dark?
William shivered at my touch.
The unexpected taste of blood jolted me back to my senses, my eyes flying open as William's fangs sliced through my lower lip. My sweet essence drained as we kissed, blood mingling in our mouths, a delectable torment that I could only think of as dangerous.
William lifted his face from mine; his eyes were shimmering obsidian depths containing a new kind of hunger.

Internet has always been an asset when it comes to solving even the most difficult of problems and it has certainly come handy in eliminating the racial bias existing between people of different communities. The inception of online interracial dating sites had marked the beginning of a new era and websites like Black Men-White Women .com have certainly continued the legacy.
There was a time when the blacks were treated with disrespect in the United States and several other parts of the world. In fact, interracial marriages were considered to be an offence under law. However, as things got better and the Government scrapped laws governing interracial relationships, people from various racial backgrounds began to connect, which marked a rise in the number of interracial marriages too. We provide the list of best interracial dating sites reviews.


When Glenn Seaborg's team discovered in 1942 that thorium can be transmuted to uranium-233, they say that the future Nobel laureate exclaimed that they had made a 50 quadrillion dollar discovery – that is '5' followed by 16 zeroes. Perhaps it was just euphoria, or maybe Seaborg thought of a world powered by thorium for a thousand years that made him utter what seems like such a hyperbole. Regardless, the scientist's observation still stands – thorium provides an excellent option for the world to adopt a fuel that is reliable, abundant, safer, and environmentally friendlier than anything that is in use today.
For enthusiasts, progress is always slow, but all signs indicate that after decades of neglect, thorium technology is witnessing a revival. Several small private companies have started researching, designing, and promoting new reactors that are fuelled by thorium instead of uranium. Coming at just the right time with concerns of climate change reaching a peak and an ambivalence towards conventional nuclear energy in the West, thorium energy can well be the vehicle that creates tomorrow's energy barons.
It is not that thorium has sprouted new enthusiasts overnight – the benefits were known decades ago. However, thorium reactor designs did not serve what was then seen as the primary purpose of providing for the military's requirements of fissile material for their weapons programme. Alvin Weinberg, former director of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, who, ironically, was one of the pioneers in light water reactor technology, was one of the early thorium enthusiasts as far back as the mid-1940s. Weinberg had criticised the light water path in a 1946 paper he had co-authored, suggesting the use of thorium to resolve several of the challenges the LWR design faced.
Thorium advocates even today emphasize some of these same strengths that Weinberg pointed out over half a century ago. One, for example, is that thorium reactors consume their fuel much more efficiently than uranium reactors. Conventional reactors burn through only about two or three percent of the fuel; a whopping 97 percent is jettisoned as nuclear waste. This waste contains not just uranium but also other long-lasting, highly radioactive, elements that makes disposal a complicated process. Furthermore, the volume of waste generated will be of concern if the world adopts nuclear power wholesale.
On the other hand, thorium reactors have been designed to burn their fuel more completely: some 98 percent of the fuel is used up and the resultant waste is a fraction of what conventional reactors generate. Such a high burnup reduces the cost of fuel as well as waste storage. Its most positive feature, however, is that few of the radioactive transuranic elements in conventional nuclear waste are present in thorium reactor waste; the thorium-uranium fuel cycle does not irradiate uranium-238 and consequently, plutonium, the key element proliferation experts fear, is also not present. Storage becomes significantly easier, safer, and trustable with thorium technology, a most useful feature when considering the possible deployment of hundreds of such reactors worldwide. In fact, thorium reactors can even be configured to burn existing nuclear waste and bypass the endless debates on geological depositories.
It is not just the waste that makes thorium technology attractive: the Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor as well as the Advanced Heavy Water Reactor, the two primary thorium reactor designs in vogue presently, operate at low pressures. This reduces the chance of what is called a Loss of Coolant Accident or LOCA and lowers operational and construction costs. In fact, once a short, initial learning period is over and thorium reactors become mainstream, construction costs may become competitive with thermal power plants.
Although important, cost is not the primary lure of thorium technology. Thorium reactor designs come with several passive safety features that enhance safety. These innovations have made the reactors so safe that they can run for several days without any human input. The use of inherent properties of the fuel and other materials ensures that the reactor would shut down in case of an accident and the probability of a threat to human health is minuscule. For example, the Indian AHWR is considered so safe that Shiv Abhilash Bhardwaj, chairman of the Indian Atomic Energy Regulatory Board, has declared that the reactor could be built in the middle of a city without causing any concern. Not only would this reduce transmission costs but such characteristics could go a long way in allaying public fear about nuclear energy.
Another quality thorium reactors can boast of is their proliferation resistance. With the elimination of plutonium from its fuel cycle, thorium reactors are not particularly useful in clandestine nuclear weapons programmes. Over the past decade, several countries have expressed an interest in nuclear energy. Although dampened by the accident at Fukushima, Asia and Africa remain firm in their enthusiasm. The expansion of nuclear energy will put additional strain on an already extended IAEA. However, were thorium to become the face of the nuclear renaissance, it would ease the burden on the world's proliferation watchdogs.
However, it is true that the uranium-233 into which thorium transmutes is a fissile material and may be used for weapons manufacture. Nonetheless, this is easier said than done: the uranium-233 in a thorium reactor contains an admixture of its isotope, uranium-232. The decay chain of this latter isotope is a potent source of gamma radiation and handling it requires remote manipulators. Furthermore, radioactivity increases and peaks around ten years for uranium-233 with even a five parts per million contamination of uranium-232. This is largely because of the presence of thallium-208 in the decay chain. Since the two uranium isotopes are chemically indistinguishable, it is very difficult to separate them for a weapons project.
Still, it is possible to remove the protactinium from the reactor so that it would decay to pure uranium-233. This would, however, require a dedicated national programme and make the theft or diversion of materials for a weapons programme easier to detect. Like the Non-Proliferation Treaty, the Limited Test Ban Treaty, or the export controls of the Nuclear Suppliers Group which do not eliminate nuclear proliferation but make it more difficult, thorium reactors present several hurdles to a potential proliferation effort that makes weaponisation more difficult.
The best part about the promise of thorium is that it is already known to work. Research efforts in the United States between the 1960s and early 1980s have demonstrated that thorium reactors are feasible. Since then, related technology has only moved forward. India is ready to break ground on its AHWR design, proofing another design for the same principles.
The world stands on the cusp of a thorium renaissance. Not only has the thorium movement attracted excellent nuclear talent to itself but it has also evinced the interest of billionaire businessmen like Bill Gates, whose TerraPower has been investing in developing its own thorium molten salt reactor design. The environmental benefits of thorium reactors aside, there is an enormous economic windfall awaiting the first movers in this technology. The immediate next step, however, is for businesses to sit down with regulatory authorities to develop safety protocols for these new reactors.
