Before you can begin to ask how to get sponsorship money you have to start with the basics: What is sponsorship? Before you use my sponsorship proposal template let's look at what corporate partnerships entail.
This is part one of a five part series focused on understanding the demands of sponsorship. How to know when you're ready to jump in, how to avoid common mistakes, what to expect at your first meeting and how to get sponsors even if you're on your 100th meeting. Whether you are working on an event sponsorship proposal, corporate philanthropy or working on cause related marketing campaigns, this article is for you!
Before we discuss what sponsorship is let's break all the rules and start by defining sponsorship by what it is not.

What is Sponsorship? Let's Start with What it is Not!
Corporate sponsorship is at its root a marketing spend and sponsors measure value based on return on their investment- not how many logos you put on a banner at an event. Sponsorship is a way for corporate entities to connect with their demographic, to build their brand and ultimately to find more customers. Companies can partner with charities to build their brand but they can also partner with for profit companies.
A note about terminology: corporate fundraising, sponsorship and cause marketing campaigns often refer to the same umbrella group of revenue though each focuses on a slightly different approach. I will be using these terms interchangeably throughout this article and my blog but my focus is on program and event sponsorship as well as smart corporate partnerships.
The importance of this point cannot be overstated. When a charity moves into the realm of seeking sponsorship they are competing with other charities (nothing new here) but they are competing with for profit companies- magazines, websites, TV, ad space, sport teams…you name it! That means competing with for profit marketing budgets and sales teams.
If You Want to Know How to Write a Sponsorship Proposal, Ask Your Prospects!
Above all, you will never be able to guess what a potential sponsor wants. All you can do is know your product, event, program etc. and who you appeal to and ask lots of questions. If your stakeholders are not your prospect's target market, you don't have a fit.
So you've read this far and are probably saying to yourself "this is all well and good but I still don't know how to close a sponsorship sale." Good! Sponsorship is involved and takes time to fully understand and this series will help.
The sponsorship process includes the following, each of which could be a single person's full time job!
So that's it right? You have cash in hand- see you next year when you need money again! Not so fast, the money arriving means that the real work begins.
Some companies hear from thousands of charities every month wanting their sponsorship dollars or looking for event sponsorship along with thousands of for profit companies wanting the same. Surprise your next prospect by coming to the table ready to listen to their needs and by proactively creating a strategy that helps them meet those needs. Prove to them that you know how to help them reach their customers and see what happens.

Q: .val() func returns undefined but no copied id I'm trying to create a basic calculator using asp.net and jquery. I get to the JQuery function by clicking my Calculate button. I want to use myInt to do other things based on what value I get out of it. But myInt always returns undefined or an empty string.
I see that other people have the same problem here on SO. Most solutions say that the OP has duplicated an id somewhere. I've checked and checked and can't find that I've done that. What other problem could I be having?
<form id="calculator" asp-action="CalcEvens">

           Enter a numba
           <input asp-for="myInt" class="form-control" min="1" max="999" required="required" type="number" />

           <input type="button" id="Calculate" value="Calculate" />

</form>

    $(document).ready(function () {
        var myInt = $("#myInt").value;

        $('#Calculate').on('click', function () {
            console.log(myInt);
        });
    });

I need whatever is input into the myInt textbox to be printed to the console. I keep getting "undefined" instead.

A: You don't have any input with id="myInt" in your html code

A: You need to use val() not .value
var myInt = $("#myInt").val();

and to get a value on click use the var myInt=..... line inside the click method not outside it.
$('#Calculate').on('click', function () {
    var myInt = $("#myInt").val();
    console.log(myInt);
});

you got it onload when you trying to get the myInt value so it will read undefined or empty but it'll not catch the new value.

We are going to make a dress that can change colors with a single click. It uses a single script for low lag to change all prims on a dress.
This next step will require you to use the Imprudence viewer. Imprudence is an older Third Party Viewer that can upload XML files. You can get it from the Third Party List of approved viewers or from their download page.
It CANNOT see mesh, so your avatar will disappear! But lets not worry.
Browser to the folder "Skirt" and then "xml skirt files" and select any dress XML file. There is no need to upload them all as we are going to make a dress that can change colors with a single click. You can also choose from many skirts from Linda Kellie in the folder "More Skirts".
Once it uploads, a dress should appear in front of you. This will take about 1 minute.
Take a copy of the skirt to Inventory.
Now log out. You should now log in using a more modern viewer so you can see the mesh avatar.
You can make your own clothing using a standard Second Life template. You can get more details on making clothes in my article about the Second Life Clothes Previewer, which contains a nice set of Open Source clothing templates, skins, and clothes.
The use of file names like this lets my scripts be used without knowing any coding. The downside is you have to be able to spell!
Now locate the folder on your hard drive labeled "Skirt". Inside the Skirt Folder is a script named "Skirt Script.lsl". Put that script inside the skirt. It must go into the root prim, which happens by default.
Now that the script is in the skirt, type '/100 menu' and change the color of your Avatar. The avatar clothing should change and the dress should change too.
The skirt will be far too large for this tiny fairy.
The Fix Small Prims script, by Emma Nowhere, is very useful. You can get it from this download link or the zip file.
4. Re-rez the skirt from inventory, it should say "Tandy's Dress: FixSmallPrims Installed".
Oh, it looks distorted? Good luck with that. The tiniest avatars use such small hair that even a 0.010" minimum distance can cause severe hair loss. The only solution is to work with each piece and carefully place it back where it belongs after each shrink pass, then shrink it again. Or use the quarter-sized avatar like I told you too, grump grump.
If it does not shrink enough, you can repeat steps 7 to reset the prim size so you can resize it smaller. When done, type /1fspcleanup.
You can use almost any modifiable hair on your new avatar. The hair will need to be shrunk down by editing the hair and dragging the resize handles. If the hair will not shrink enough, you can use the same resizerscript you used on her skirt, to make it shrinkable to sizes that are much smaller than normal. However, this will be difficult on the very tiniest avatar!If you are making a very very tiny Tandy, as the hair gets smaller and smaller, it will start to distort. You have to go into Edit Linked Parts and move these manually. The resizer will distort the prims more and more as you get smaller. I have found that the free "Red Run'. hair works well for tinies.

Q: Python requests RequestsDependencyWarning which disappears after re-installing the same version of the library I'm building a python environment within a docker container using a Dockerfile. One of the levels is to pip install a requirements.txt file which includes the following libraries:
chardet==3.0.4
requests==2.22.0
urllib3==1.25.6

After the image has been built I create a container instance and run the following inside it:
python -c "import requests"
which gives the following output:
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/__init__.py:91: RequestsDependencyWarning: urllib3 (1.25.6) or chardet (2.2.1) doesn't match a supported version! RequestsDependencyWarning)

Fair enough, however if I reinstall requests, pip install --upgrade requests --force-reinstall, and run the same python command above I don't receive the warning.
I can check the versions of each library again within the container and they're exactly the same as before:
chardet==3.0.4
requests==2.22.0
urllib3==1.25.6

So why would requests have been issuing the error before, and how can I ensure this warning doesn't come up within my Docker image without having a dangling re-install level in my Dockerfile?
I haven't found any adverse affects so far while using requests within my code while the warning is popping-up, however I'd rather it not be there since something is obviously triggering it.
I've found a number of posts/articles that suggest just sticking with re-installing requests, however I wouldn't want this redundant step within the Dockerfile unless it was the only way to resolve the warning.
Interestingly reinstalling chardet also removes the warning however reinstalling urllib3 does not.
-- edit --
Dockerfile as requested:
FROM centos:7

# Install external yum repositories
RUN yum install -y \
        epel-release \
        https://repo.ius.io/ius-release-el7.rpm \
        && yum clean all

# Install required rpm dependencies
RUN curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py && python get-pip.py
RUN yum install -y \
        systemd-python.x86_64 \
        git222 \
        gcc \
        python2-devel \
        openldap-devel \
        python-perf \
        python-linux-procfs \
        python-schedutils \
        policycoreutils-python \
        python-slip \
        python-slip-dbus \
        && yum clean all

# Install required pip dependencies
ADD requirements.txt /home/admin/container_files/
RUN pip install setuptools==30.1.0
RUN pip install -r /home/admin/container_files/requirements.txt

# Final update of packages
RUN yum update -y && yum clean all

A: the workaround will be to re-order the install in your file to:
chardet==3.0.4
urllib3==1.25.6
requests==2.22.0

now python -c "import requests" will work from the first time
and I suggest you to move :
RUN yum update -y && yum clean all

to second line , then that will be cached if you edit some of your later code.


Yes, that is a smile on Kenna Ramey's face.
The Federal Way senior has a lot to smile about these days.
This weekend, she will make her fourth of five recruiting visits to the University of the Pacific in Stockton, Calif. A week later, she'll finish up her tour at the University of New Mexico.
Ramey already has visited Idaho, San Diego State and San Jose State. She plans to make a choice on where to take her talents during the Nov. 13-20 early signing period.
As a defending individual state champion – she won the 50-yard freestyle in 23.44 seconds over Wenatchee's Hannah Bruggman (23.68) and Newport's Lorea Gwo (23.81) – Ramey has the challenge of repeating to grin over.
And as a Cambridge College Prep course participant, she's got her intelligence to smile about, too.
But this smile has little to do with recruiting, and it's not even the one Ramey sports once she finishes a race – including after winning the 50 free state title a year ago for the Eagles.
That's right, Ramey smiles through the water as she's racing.
"I don't really mean to smile," Ramey said. "It just comes naturally to me. Like when I see people move to the end of the pool and they are cheering for me, I start laughing, it's so hilarious.
Take an incident not long ago during a meet for King Aquatic Club. Her coach decided to have Ramey swim the 400 intermediate medley. When Ramey turned to begin her legs of the breast stroke, she saw them.
Come serious race time, though, the smiles are reserved for Ramey's breathing face, until the business is over. An Eagles captain this fall, Ramey scheduled her recruiting visits as much as she could around Federal Way meets. She will miss her first and only dual meet this week while in Stockton.
As a senior, Ramey embraces the present, but can't wait for the future.
Richland senior Lisa Bratton may want to reconsider graduating.
Bratton's success at the Mukilteo Invite continued last Saturday, as she broke one of the two meet records to fall at the prestigious early-season meet. Bratton's swim of 2:03.44 in the 200 IM lowered the mark of 2:04.97 that she herself set a year ago as a junior.
In fact, Bratton has broken the IM mark in three consecutive seasons. Back in 2011, as a sophomore, she swam the event in 2:05.87.
Bratton is the defending state 4A champion in the event, as well, having gone 2:01.53 at King County Aquatics Center last fall, the same venue in which the Mukilteo Invite was held on Saturday.
The other record to fall during the meet came from the Wenatchee High 200 free relay team. The quartet of senior Rachel Wilt, sophomore Audrey Parrish, and freshmen Isabelle Dressel and Jessica Wierzbicki lowered the mark set by Richland in 2012 from 1:41.67 to 1:41.35.
Two athletes, Foss' Emma Chard and Columbia River's Monica Bottelberghe, have given oral commitments to swim for the Boise State Broncos next year. Bottelberghe and Chard were second and third, respectively, in the 100 free at the 3A state meet a year ago.
Speaking of Chard, she posted a 52.17 time to win the 100 free at the Tacoma All-City meet last Friday. Chard went 52.14 in posting her third-place finish at state in 2012.

Interview: PreK-12 Distance Learning During the COVID-19 Shutdown
Steve Nathans-Kelly: I'm here today with Bob Krieger from Christ Episcopal School in Covington, Louisiana. We're going to talk a little bit about Bob's role as Director of Technology at the school during the current crisis when they, like many schools and many religious organizations, are working with a number of streaming technologies to try to keep the community together, and continue learning. So in terms of the day-to-day operations, how much live distance learning is going on? And what are you using to deliver it?
Bob Krieger: My school--just for those who don't know about us--we go from preK all the way through 12th grade. We have two campuses. One is the early childhood campus--pre-K, kindergarten classes--and the other one is the main campus, the 1st through 12th. For 3rd through 12th, we all have email addresses. The kids themselves can log in with their computers as themselves without having to use mom and dad's email address, which is great cause it keeps everything within the school domain, which is really nice. The teachers do live classes for our 3rd through 8th graders. The teachers don't really have online classes every day, but they do meet with the kids online in a live video conference-type situation, about twice a week, and then they have office hours.
For high school, we're trying to keep things a little bit more along the lines of what normal school is like. When your class at school begins at eight in the morning, then your class online begins at eight in the morning. They're not going to be as long. We're cutting it short to about 40 minutes. That gives the kids time to get away from their computer, go do something and come back, so they're not stuck in front of the computer for four or five or six hours a day.
The big deal, right before we started this--when we felt the shutdown was coming--was trying to do a crash course in how to do video streaming, how to do the recording, how to do Google Classroom. A lot of the teachers didn't have that or they knew about it, but hadn't bothered getting started with it yet. I was showing them how it works and then letting them run with it. Being here, being ready to go online to show them how to do certain things, they had questions like, "How do I do this or?" Or, "What's the best way to do that?" Getting online with them as well as via video chat or a remote online connection ... Windows and Macs and Chromebooks all install a different way. And that makes it difficult. And I need to be able to help them do that.
One of the ways I've done it is my little setup here. I use a Blackmagic Design ATEM Mini, which I got a few weeks before this whole thing started. It was basically something that I was gonna use for personal use, for recording plays at school, for recording chapels at school as well. But when this crisis came along, I said, "Well, let me see what I can do." So what I actually have in my office, you'll see behind me, I've got a Windows 10 PC. Then over on this side. I've got a Mac and a Chromebook. And with the, the ATEM Mini, I have it all set up. So there's no switching in the the Google Meet or the Zoom or whatever to get to it, to show my screen. All I have to do is do a switch. So there's the Windows 10 PC; we've got the Mac, and of course the Mac is up, I have my ATEM software on there. And then the Chromebook, and then I come back here. So it actually really helps. When I'm giving a lesson to someone online or to a bunch of people online, it's like, "Let me show you how you do it on a PC and they can actually see the PC right there. Let me show you on the Chromebook. Let me show you on the Mac." And it really helps me get the job done quicker. They're able to see what's going on better than me just talking to them on the phone. Like, "Do you see that icon in the corner?" "Which one? The red one?" "No, the blue one." "I don't have a blue one." It's really kind of difficult to just talk your way through it 'cause I'm trying to remember how things go and having it right here in front of me and showing them at the same time. It works.
Steve Nathans-Kelly: So you've been actually using this setup in training faculty remotely, is that right? Because it seemed like at the beginning of this crisis, there was a lot of putting faculty in a room together to learn how to do this stuff, when it wasn't really the right time to do that.
Bob Krieger: When we closed school, we had two days. Wectold the students and told the faculty, "We're shutting down on Friday. You have the weekend. Monday and Tuesday are just free days. Go relax, go sleep, go do whatever." Mainly to the students, "Go do what you gotta do." And then Wednesday we began school. During that Monday and Tuesday, I took that time. I took lower school first and second grade, and I took third and fourth and then seventh and then the school teachers all separately during those days to give them the basics of how to do what they're gonna do. I don't consider it that hard, but it's new to them. They're used to just throwing up a PowerPoint or a video up on the screen and showing it and displaying it. "Well, let me show you how to do that here so that you have the ability to do this remotely."
Steve Nathans-Kelly: You mentioned before we get started that you're using Google Meet. How did you decide on that versus Zoom or versus another option? Was it something the school was already using?
Bob Krieger: No, the school wasn't using any kind of video conferencing software at all for classes or for teachers. I know the administration would have Zoom meetings with other administrators around the country. But that was them, that was out of my hands, and that's where they picked. I was looking at something we use. We're a Google school. Our email system, our classroom, and everything is all Google-based, all Gmail-based, and everybody knows that. Everybody works with that. And you go to the little Google waffle in the corner to get the little apps and it just works. When Google came out and said that they were making Meet available for schools, it was like, "Here, this is free. We know we're having this problem. Schools, go for it." I said, "Great, let's try this." Zoom came out and they did theirs as well saying, "Okay, we have the free version of Zoom now everyone can use."
At first it was the Early Childhood Center. The lady who's in charge over there, she liked Zoom, so she told her teachers, "Let's use Zoom when we have our meetings." Great. Everybody else is using Google Meet. It was just that much easier to because it worked well in the ecosystem that we already had in place. The fact that you could schedule a meeting using the Google Calendar and then bang, it was just right there, and invite the students. Bang. It's just right there. It's in their email; they just click on a link and there it is--just like Zoom does, but it just integrates so much easier.
At that time I really wasn't too worried about the differences. It just like, "Okay, we're using Google Meet, you wanna, use Zoom, go use Zoom. I don't care. Enjoy yourself, there you go." But then there was an issue with Google Meet where students were getting into these meetings and Google Meet was designed for professional use--not necessarily for school use. So you had students going in there and removing other students from the meeting and blocking everybody's mic and just being kids, and that was a problem. A number of people complained, and I asked Google, "Is there anything you can do about it?" And they said, "Just wait one minute." And within a week that fix was in place.
Now, when teachers start a meeting, they're the ones who have control over muting a mic or blocking a student from the classroom if they're being disruptive, which is fantastic. So that solved the problem. And I love the fact that Google was on the ball saying, "Let me help." Now we are really concentrating on Google rather than Zoom because of some of the other issues that I'm sure other people have heard about that Zoom is having, with unwanted people joining a meeting without being invited, which is kind of strange. At least with Google Meet, you have to be within our Christ Episcopal School domain to join a Meet, or the meeting leader has to physically allow someone to enter the meeting.
We did have an issue with Meet as well where you had only the person who was speaking was full screen. You didn't have a grid view. Kind of like what we're looking at with Zoom right now, we have the two of us on here. One of the other tech directors in the area who teaches in a school down in New Orleans found some code and packaged it up and put it online as a Chrome extension--the Google Grid View--and he called it the Brady Bunch Look. As people join, the grid forms, and each person stays on camera. That grew like wildfire. There was a Google education group on Facebook, and all of a sudden I see that posted on there, and everybody's using it. So the community got together and solved the problem, which was fantastic. And Ryan is sitting back saying, "Well, I didn't really create it, I just packaged it. I just kind of put it out there." But it was a wonderful thing. And then he added some more functionality to it where, as a speaker speaking and on that grid, you'll see a little highlight on there. You can include yourself or not in there, you can pin yourself or not--it's just all these different things that Google Meet didn't quite have, but the extension allowed it to work.
That's one of the things I see in this whole area with the shutdown, is that people are working together, and to get these things to work, making something do it really wasn't intended to do, to do what they need to do so that people can teach the way they need to teach.
I also teach a filmmaking class, and that took a big hit, because we were going to be working on narrative films. Everybody was shooting a short film and working with a bunch of other kids to get together as actors and crew and everything else. But with the shutdown, you can't go out and meet anybody. So what are we gonna do? Well, we're actually turning things around a little bit. We've decided on a concept: We're gonna make one film and everyone is broken up into groups and those groups are going to do something along the lines of the movie Unfriended, where everything has to be done via webcam or social media and recorded through that interaction. But it's not a horror movie. It's going to be more about how do kids date during this time? What they decided on is more light, more fun, more upbeat, I guess you could say.
They all rewrote their scripts, and they're actually working on recording their segments now. We're going to put it together and edit it. I was planning on using Adobe Premiere, and everyone had a copy of it. We're not gonna do it that way now. We want to try to collaborate on this from everyone's home. There's an online editor called WeVideo that is platform-independent. It doesn't matter whether they're on Chromebook, Mac, or PC; it'll work because everything's uploaded to the cloud. It's not gonna be 4K, it's not gonna be 1080p. It's gonna be just 720, but that's fine. This way, everyone can take a look at the different edits and put it together, and then we can collaborate together on the one final film. Hopefully, we're going to have an online screening before the end of school. At least that's the plan. We'll see how it all works out.
This is the silver lining I was talking about. Yes, we're all stuck at home. We can't shake each other's hands or give each other a hug, but we're learning new techniques and learning these new technologies. We're using them in ways they were never intended, but ways that just make us advance and help us continue advancing toward the end goal. That part is wonderful. So let's not overlook the good that actually comes with the bad.
It was like this after Katrina. When we had that lovely little storm a few years ago, people were wringing their hands and crying, and they were usually the people who weren't in New Orleans or weren't in this area. But we all pulled together. We helped everybody out. We came together as a community and learned new ways of doing things, new ways of making things work. It's like, tighten your belt and roll up your sleeves and start throwing out the trash and we're going to continue.
That's what I see in this crisis happening right now around here, at least in the education community. People, you tightening their belts, rolling up their sleeves, digging into the work, and doing what needs to be done with a smile on their face. Because it's not like we have to use chalkboard and chalk anymore. We have these technologies. The internet works, this stuff works, let's use it, and let's use it to the best of our ability. People are doing things with it that I never thought was possible.
Steve Nathans-Kelly: Thanks so much, Bob, and keep doing what you're doing.

The deep web is often filled with wonders; some beautiful, many often dangerous. While many know the deep web exists, many are afraid to explore it. Few do however and wosX has made an album about it.
The soundscapes here are scary but are more often than not, beautiful. Each track takes you on a trek through the various aspects of the deep web with pads so smooth you could almost glide on them. It starts off like a combination of vaporwave with synthwave but with every track you listen to, you get deeper and deeper and the deeper you go, the weirder the tracks get.
It's that factor that makes the album really interesting and cool because few vaporwave albums can boast to progressively changing their sound. Regular albums would be afraid but this one isn't, it just does what it does for the sole purpose of telling its story. It may seem like an outcast initially but thanks to the artists talent, it becomes a hero in the end… One with the most unique concept out of the rest.
The one thing that consists throughout the entire album is the grimy aesthetic. Regular vaporwave would just touch upon the nostalgia of it all but this album is going deeper to places that wouldn't even warrant a mention. Those places are filled with filth and grime and the artist does a perfect job of replicating that feeling you get when you go to subversive places. Without that grimy aesthetic, I don't think an album about this concept would really work out.
By diverting expectations and flipping the concept on it's heels, wosX has made something that can be portrayed as art alongside music and surpassed all expectations. Plus its grimy aesthetic is something other albums would die for. If you're into some weird stuff than this album is for you.

Get an education. You need a college degree to get a good job.
"My father took a gap year between high school and college to work at a factory in small town Michigan. He said he came home every night after a 12-hour shift, drenched in sweat and dead tired.
When he finished that gap year, he kept his bandanna hanging in his rear-view mirror. He looked it as a reminder of the hard reality of manual labor so that he would never forget why he was going to college. His advice to me was to do the same so that I didn't have to spend my life in a factory.
I received the message loud and clear. I went to college. I diligently studied to get my bachelor's degree.
When we stop and think about it, it's obvious that a college degree is not a requirement for success. Countless people have succeeded in business without formal education, including Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, and Michael Dell.
Now, Ian admitted you could hardly blame his father, and I'm inclined to agree. A few decades ago, unless you were starting your own business, you simply couldn't get a white collar job without a college degree. To this day, many companies won't hire someone without a degree.
But it begs the question: why do we treat degrees as requirements for most jobs in the first place?
In addition to the highly successful individuals I mentioned previously, I've hired a number of individuals without degrees who have excelled in their roles. Including management and leadership positions.
Conversely, I've hired a large number of individuals with degrees who have failed in these roles. So why do we screen candidates based on their level of education?
Why Do Most Companies Make Degrees a Requirement?
Of course, for many careers, a degree is a must. Nobody in their right mind would want to hire a doctor or a lawyer who hadn't received the proper formal education. The same can be said for a host of careers in the medical, science, and engineering fields.
But for the bulk of us, a college degree is largely unnecessary. It certainly didn't teach me how to run a business, or prepare me adequately for the business world.
When you take into account the vast amount that a driven individual can learn by themselves online, you have to wonder what a degree has to offer that self-education doesn't.
I've heard many justifications for having a degree as a job requirement. One of the most common is that it shows a person is organized, can manage their time, is driven to succeed, etc.
It's a valid point, but let's look at the data. A comprehensive study looking at 100 years of research findings found that education provides only 1% predictive ability of job performance.
In other words, a degree is virtually useless for predicting whether someone will excel in a position or not!
So What Can Predict Success?
Many recruiters and hiring managers look to experience once they realize a degree is irrelevant for a role. Unfortunately, research has demonstrated that experience is also largely unreliable.
The best method of predicting a candidate's performance is through a combination of examining their prior results and leveraging state-of-the-art analytics.
Let me explain the results portion first.
Rather than focusing on degrees and relevant experience, we have to go a step further to consider the results a candidate has delivered in a specific role.
Ultimately, we want every new hire to perform. If they're performing and delivering the required results, their qualifications are irrelevant!
Formal education and X years of experience requirements are arbitrary and serve only to exclude potential high-performers. Instead, we have to structure our interviews and evaluation processes around determining what a candidate has personally contributed to prior organizations.
Consider a sales role. Rather than looking at how many years they've been selling, we should evaluate their numbers.
If someone has consistently performed in the past, they can and most likely will perform in the future. While experience and education are certainly nice credentials, focusing on the specific, quantifiable results a candidate has delivered gives us a much better look at their ability to perform as needed.
Businesses today have a number of highly-advanced tools at their disposal for assessing candidates and determining fitness for a role. The scientifically validated behavioral and cognitive assessments from the Predictive Index in particular are highly valuable for this purpose.
In a nutshell, these assessments give you simple yet highly insightful data on how someone behaves in the workplace and interacts with others. The P.I. Behavioral Assessment provides information on what drives a candidate, what strengths they offer, and what competencies they may struggle with.
The P.I. Cognitive Assessment provides insight on how an individual processes complex information and how they adapt to change. For mentally demanding roles or quickly-changing work environments, this is an essential tool for predicting an individual's ability to keep pace and perform.
Together, these assessments provide concrete data that's simply not obtainable through interviews or resumes. They provide you with more information on how a person operates and what they are capable of than a degree ever could.
When combined with structured interviews, these assessments offer nearly double the predictive ability of traditional candidate evaluation methods.
In short, there are far better methods of predicting job performance than degrees or even years of experience.
My advice to businesses is simple.
When evaluating candidates, focus on the metrics that are scientifically proven to predict success, namely the results they've delivered in the past and the data from validated assessments.
In doing so, you can make better hires, increase retention, and position yourself to achieve your business goals.
I know old habits die hard, but when we look at the data, it's obvious that we need to make a change. Why wait any longer?

Parkinson's disease involves quizlet


WASHINGTON, Jan. 17 (Xinhua) -- Thousands more migrant children were likely separated from their parents and guardians at the U.S.-Mexico border than was previously known, according to a report released Thursday by the inspector general of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
The government report did not specify the exact number of the children separated or explain why these children were taken from their families, but noted that these children were "often very young" and suffered from a shortage of beds.
The federal government previously reported that 2,737 children were forcibly separated from their parents entering the Untied States illegally last year under President Donald Trump's "zero-tolerance" policy that required all migrants to be criminally prosecuted after crossing the border.
The new report found a hike in immigrant family separations long before the "zero tolerance" policy that prosecuted immigrant parents who crossed the border illegally while holding their children separately in HHS custody.
In the summer of 2017, the Office of Refugee Resettlement, which runs the government shelters for unaccompanied migrant children, already reported a "steep increase" in the number of separated children.
The Department of Homeland Security told the Insider website in a statement that the report "vindicated" their claims that family separations have long been the norm in certain circumstances, though the agency also said it doubted the inspector general's office's "credibility."

Alzheimer's disease and the eye
Richard A. Armstrong
Dementia, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), is a major disorder causing visual problems in the elderly population. The pathology of AD includes the deposition in the brain of abnormal aggregates of ß-amyloid (Aß) in the form of senile plaques (SP) and abnormally phosphorylated tau in the form of neurofibrillary tangles (NFT). A variety of visual problems have been reported in patients with AD including loss of visual acuity (VA), colour vision and visual fields; changes in pupillary response to mydriatics, defects in fixation and in smooth and saccadic eye movements; changes in contrast sensitivity and in visual evoked potentials (VEP); and disturbances of complex visual functions such as reading, visuospatial function, and in the naming and identification of objects. Many of these changes are controversial with conflicting data in the literature and no ocular or visual feature can be regarded as particularly diagnostic of AD. In addition, some pathological changes have been observed to affect the eye, visual pathway, and visual cortex in AD. The optometrist has a role in helping a patient with AD, if it is believed that signs and symptoms of the disease are present, so as to optimize visual function and improve the quality of life.

Scientific Proof
Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? Corinthians 15:12 ESV
Science teaches us, this is all there is. When this life is over, it's over. This theory makes death the greatest enemy.
People with a science based world view consider life after death talk to be foolishness. The functions called life fail at a cellular level. Irreversible decay sets in. You can prove death, but a return of life - that's unthinkable because it hasn't been proven.
And yet, according to eyewitnesses, it has! Paul recounts the lengthy list of proof in his letter to the people of Corinth "...and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me." 1 Corinthians 15:5-8 ESV
In our culture, people operate with a variety of definitions of truth. If it's on Facebook it must be true. If it's not on CNN it didn't happen. We have to hear Paul's evidence in the truth assessment of his day. He lists witnesses by name. He builds the case with numbers. He tops it off with his own personal testimony. Would that meet a truth assessment today?
Do you know someone who looks for truth in provable data? Give them your time and listen to them. Listen for what criteria of truth they live with. Consider carefully how you could offer them proof of Jesus' resurrection. Pray for guidance.

Compared to other mediums, video games are still fairly new to the "entertainment medium" party. However, storytelling has existed since humans were able to communicate ideas to each other, so there are a few tried-and-true ways to convey a story effectively. Let's talk about exposition in games: how its done, when it works, and when it really, really doesn't.
One of the most important aspects of storytelling is the idea of "show, don't tell." Don't tell the reader why they care about a character; show them the reasons the character is a great person and worthy of their emotional investment. This is done through exposition or narrative, which consists of details of the story that aren't really pertinent to the main plot, but are overall important for character development, perspective, etc. These are the details like, "Joe was in a wheelchair. He had been in the war, and an explosive device mangled his legs. A number of his combat buddies died that day, and he was still upset about it, so he didn't spend much time at home." There, I told you.
Joe sat at his usual table at the restaurant downtown. His cell phone rang, but he ignored it, knowing it was his wife wondering where he had gone this time. The waitress hadn't commented on all the empty chairs around the table set for six, he noted. She was new; she didn't know the faces that should have been here. With a gusty sigh, Joe locked the wheels of his chair. His hand found the scars on his leg where shrapnel had buried itself in a flash of burning and pain, before he forced himself to open his menu alone.
I conveyed the same information as the "tell" sentence, but never actually stated that his friends were dead, or that Joe had been a soldier, or that there had been an explosion, but I'm sure you were able to draw those conclusions for yourself.
Exposition in video games is used to convey details about the (usually unfamiliar) world the player will be inhabiting for the next twenty to one hundred hours. Because of their interactive nature, the games cannot rely on dialogue to illustrate every point, otherwise the game quickly becomes a movie, much like in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, which spent so much time explaining technology and conspiracies and connecting all the plot points of previous games that now, years after I played the game, I hardly remember the gameplay itself.
This is poor exposition in a video game.
Games, like movies, can use visual elements to convey certain details of the world without using words (Silent Hill 2's oppressive setting comes to mind), but unlike movies can also incorporate interaction with the environment to convey the story.
Megan Man X is a great example of this. The first battle where you meet Zero illustrates just how powerless Mega Man is at the beginning of the game because you as a player experience that helplessness. And then, in one line, Zero assures Mega Man that he can one day be just as powerful. And then the powerups deliver on this; there is no sidekick interrupting your gameplay to say, "Hey, MegaMan, you powered up and can <fill in the blank> now!" Nope, you just saw it, and did it. The game designers trusted you to draw the conclusions for yourself (another important point that may come up in future posts).
Fantasy and science fiction genres are usually guilty of the "exposition dump" storytelling. Characters will soliloquy on topics that anyone who actually exists in that world should know about, because the player needs to know it. But do they? What is vitally important for the player to know, and what would be an extra bonus?
The Dragon Age series finds a good balance with this. I never felt over-burdened by information, even the first time I jumped into the series and was still fairly new to RPGs in general. I played Dragon Age: Origins on an old tube TV, so I didn't even have the benefit of being able to read the codices (literally. The screen was too blurry), but I still found the world to be rich and engaging, simply from the careful word choices of the NPCs and the interactions I had with the environment. For me, the codices served to enhance the environment, not define it. I almost saw them as Easter eggs – little treats for the people who found them, but not integral to the story if you didn't.
Comparatively, the exposition dump in a game like Two Worlds II was almost distracting, sitting through long conversations with NPCs who told me who I was, why I cared, where we were, and why that was important. I wasn't even shown. I felt like the game sat me down and read part of a history book to me. I played the game for a few hours and didn't really care about the characters, because after being informed of my affection for <fill in the blank> the game assumed I believed it and went merrily on its way.
Contrast this to, again, Dragon Age which gives some background via Duncan the Grey Warden, then gives you, the player, a "reason" to join the Wardens through short segment you play through (where either you (aka your avatar) are tainted by a cursed mirror, you family is betrayed and killed, you are kidnapped, you're going to be executed, etc.). You are also given a reason to want to stop the Blight. Duncan – your mentor – and the king of Ferelden are massacred in a darkspawn attack, you and your new friend are almost killed, and I'll show that archdemon who's boss!
Also, I think I agree in general with your principle about doing > showing > telling in games, although in practice I often prefer to give up control. The hard thing about doing everything in a game, particularly a story-driven one, is that the player will almost invariably have make a lot of decisions about what to do and how to do it and that can be stressful, and often not especially satisfying.
Anyway I hope you'll post more on this topic going because I'm very interested in storytelling and these kinds of techniques in games, there's so much to be said about the topic!
Hi! Thank you so much for your comment! You're absolutely right, there are a lot of elements that have become "staples" of certain genres, for better and for worse, and I think we could have a very good discussion about their inclusion in games.
And it's okay, I never actually finished Megaman X, either… long story. Also, I'm glad you wrote "Megaman." I was 99% sure that was how it was supposed to be spelled, but then I saw an advertisement for "Mega Man" and wasn't so sure anymore.
That's a good point you make about too many choices. There is definitely a time and a place for things like cutscenes and for the game to gently guide you in the direction the storyline is trying to go. This brings up an interesting point about choice and agency in games, which I was thinking about addressing here down the line, so I'm pulling out a few games that I can use for reference. Stay tuned!
I'm so glad you like this topic! I'll definitely be posting more on character development and exposition in games in the coming days and weeks. Thanks for commenting, and hope to see you again soon!
It sounds like you've got some great ideas brewing there – can't wait! It's just my general feeling that choice can be overwhelming and cause stress, and people put too much emphasis on it as a sign of a good game. I find in a game with too much choice I run to GameFAQs to figure out what the consequences are and determine the best way forward. It can be hard to just go with your gut if those choices have ramifications.
Hello, I noticed you liked my comment on another gaming bog and as is habit, decided to follow the trail back to your blog. Am glad I did. Very much enjoyed this blog. I remember having a discussion with one of my tutors about the evolution of literature (my degree) beyond books and ereaders, into things like games. He went with me as far as video games, he was less convinced about boards games (I guess he is a person who believes boardgames start with draughts and end with monopoly). Gonna follow you, and will reblog this post if you don't mind (though I'll do it tomorrow as I already have one scheduled today).
Checked out your blog, and I'm really enjoying reading through your game posts (and your fiction!). I'll have to check out your Mycroft series when I have a little more time to sit and read a story.
Thanks for stopping by, and I'm glad to have you along for the journey!
You have my curiosity now. Can't wait to check it out!

Silverwood Park > Cultivation > Conservation
Conservation Integrated with Agriculture
Conservation efforts at Silverwood Park are an integral part of the regenerative agricultural practices and land stewardship to which the Friends of Silverwood Park are committed.
Volunteers from both the Dane County Parks system and Friends of Silverwood Park work together throughout the seasons to develop a landscape that provides diversity of habitat across the park. A key element of the conservation work is restoration of the wooded portions of the landscape. The goal is a range of biodiverse natural communities include oak opening/savanna, oak woodland, and oak forest.
Where invasive species have been removed, kettles left behind by the receding glacier are already clearly visible. With restoration of healthy natural ecosystem, the opportunities multiply for hands-on education about nature and its cycles and the outdoor recreation so essential for physical, mental, and emotional health.
Conservation work goes on all year
Rita Fox is the lead conservation volunteer with Friends of Silverwood Park, directed by Dane County staff. Volunteers are welcome any time of year.
From January to March, volunteers remove invasive brush and prepare fire breaks. Volunteer crews from Dane County, trained to operate chainsaws and conduct prescribed burns, lend a hand.
From April to mid-June, we focus on preventing invasive species like garlic mustard, leafy spurge, and canary grass from spreading their seeds, by removing what we can and treating with herbicides where necessary. We plant native shrubs, including hazelnut and plum.
Throughout the summer months we mow weeds and continue routine treatment and removal of invasives.
From September to December, we return to cutting and stacking invasive brush for removal. Once the ground is frozen, crews are able to work near the oaks without damaging them, so removal of undesirable tree species is done then. When snow depth reaches an inch, trained volunteers can burn the brush piles.
Oak savanna restoration underway
Dane County Parks and the Friends of Silverwood Park have partnered in restoration of the oak savanna, which will provide habitat for bees, butterflies, birds and other wildlife.
Once invasive species of trees, shrubs, and plants are removed, sunlight can penetrate the canopy and the oaks, some of which have become unhealthy from overcrowding by invasive trees, will again be the keystone of the ecosystem. The intermingling of prairie and oak stands will more closely resemble the original landscape before farming was introduced by European settlers.
Forest near the second scenic overlook, shortly after a burn, April 2021
The two-acre portion of the woodland with the ten stations of the Nature Trail will remain wooded, as will the northern portion of the forest that extends to the east from Rice Lake to Silver Lane.
The woods trails have been designed to follow ridges, to prevent erosion while providing for hiking/walking and horseback riding. Other trails that cross steeper sections allow access to scenic overlooks, but are not suitable for horseback riding due to the greater likelihood of erosion. All woods trails are cleared to a minimum of 12' wide.
