How to Assemble a Bagpipes Reed
The bagpipes consist of three drones that can be adjusted in length to produce different pitches. Each drone has its own reed that must be assembled and installed before playing. The bass drone plays the lowest pitches of the instrument, while the other two tenor drums can be tuned to different pitches to create three possible drones. A drone is any note that is sustained throughout a composition. Drones can change throughout the piece, but they generally don't change often.
Prepare the reed for installation by placing the blowing end into your mouth and blowing for about 10 seconds.
Pull up slightly on the tongue of the reed to separate it from the bottom part of the reed. You should lift it about 1/4 inch. Don't lift so high that it breaks. The tongue is the top part of the reed.
Insert the bass drone reed first by placing it inside the drone. The wax threads around the reed will help to keep the drone reed in place and create an airtight seal that prevents air from leaking through the sides.
Place the reeds in the remaining two drones by following Steps 1 to 3. Insert the center tenor reed first and then insert the final reed into the tenon of the drone.

Africa women face highest risk of killing by family – UN
Women and girls in Africa are at greater risk of being killed by their intimate partners or other family members, more than anywhere else in the world, the UN says.
It says the continent has the highest level of violence against women, relative to its size of female population.
In 2021, around 45,000 women and girls worldwide were killed by intimate partners or other family members.

Broken down, this means that more than five women or girls are killed every hour by someone in their own family.
The report released jointly by the UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and UN Women, says that even as the numbers are shocking, the true scale of femicide may be much higher.
By absolute numbers, Africa had the second-highest cases of female intimate partner/family-related killings, at 17,200, with Asia leading at 17,800. The Americas had 7,500 cases and 2,500 in Europe.
"Data on gender-related killings committed in the public sphere are particularly scarce, making it difficult to inform prevention policies for these types of killings," it says.
The UN is calling for the strengthening of protection mechanisms for women human rights defenders and women's rights activists.
"I call upon governments and partners across the world to increase long-term funding and support to women's rights organisations," UN Women executive director Sima Bahous said.
The UN report comes as the global commemoration of 16 days of activism against gender-based violence begins on Friday.

Civility seems like a minimum standard or a fallback position, certainly not a desired end. We expect so much more from ethical leaders.
Without civility, communication is chaotic and difficult (if not impossible). Civility adds choosing words more carefully and avoiding blaming and attacking others. When I think about people "being civil" I get a picture of people who don't like each other very much struggling to maintain their composure.
The origin of the word and its uses are interesting.
Extrapolating on this definition, perhaps civil interpersonal behavior is "all behavior not criminal." I advocate Civility, but not as an ideal. Just as law is the minimum standard of acceptable individual behavior in a society (below which you are punished) civility seems to be the minimum standard of interpersonal behavior (so as not to get in trouble with the law). Use these posts to learn about the nuances of civility as an ethical issue.
There are many ways to define "ethical leadership" but there is increasing global interest in learning "ethical leadership" in a holistic and authentic way. This authentic ethical leadership takes us beyond laws and regulations, beyond respect for others and beyond traditional definitions of a business "win." It generates a positive leadership legacy and a better shared future. If this sounds like the kind of leadership you want to learn, you've come to the right place.
The Leading in Context Blog now includes 500 articles on high-level, holistic and global ethical leadership. This blog started off as a way to organize and share emerging research in my leadership classes. Ten years later it has become a "go-to" site for organizational leaders across industries, university professors and seekers looking for a better way to lead.
To celebrate having published 500 Posts over 10 years, I've shared a short video on one of my favorite reader questions – "What were you thinking including Profit (which has no moral grounding) in a model of ethical leadership?
To help you on your ethical leadership learning journey, this Milestone post also includes a Leading in Context Blog Index. What will you find? Every post published on the Leading in Context Blog since 2009, in date order with the newest posts first. If there is something you want to learn about ethical leadership, it is probably here. If it isn't, post a comment to let me know what YOU want to learn more about.

This is the second post in a series called "Respect, Interpreted." Respect, Interpreted Part 1 described respect as a "structural beam" in organizations that holds the culture together. This week we'll look at how to take two very different kinds of leadership actions that are both required for building and maintaining a culture of respect.
One or the other of these approaches will not likely be successful on its own.
If you eliminate disrespectful behaviors without communicating the respectful behaviors that are expected, people don't know when they're going outside of behavioral expectations until they make a mistake. This approach leaves too much to chance and can impact employee engagement and stress.
Communicating that respect is a value is a great start but it's not enough. Many negative behaviors can spin off from unchecked disrespect and they tend to grow. If we say nothing and allow any disrespectful actions, then don't we appear to be authorizing a suite of other disrespectful interpersonal ills including judging, blaming, name-calling and excluding? If you say you require respectful behavior, but allow any disrespectful behaviors to go unchecked, you aren't really requiring respectful behavior, are you?
Take a moment to evaluate the "respect structure" in your organization. How well are you requiring respectful behavior AND eliminating disrespectful behavior? Both are required for building a culture of respect.
I believe that respect is a key structural beam supporting the organizational "house." Without it, trust falls, productivity falls, engagement drops and turnover increases. It becomes harder to attract top talent for open positions in organizations where respect is not a minimum standard. Without respect, an organization's culture becomes structurally unsound and devolves into "a house of cards" at risk of many negative impacts beyond those mentioned here.
With respect as a minimum standard for which people are held accountable, an organization creates a "positive shield' that deflects a wide range of negative interpersonal behaviors. If we require respect, for example, then discourages a wide range of negative behaviors including judging, blaming, name-calling or excluding.
By requiring respect as the MINIMUM standard, we are creating a preventive and protective shield that protects the organization's culture.
Think of what happens to a house when a structural beam is removed. It collapses in on itself. That is what begins to happen to organizational culture the moment a single word or action that is disrespectful is "approved" through silence. Why is silence considered approval? Thomas Paine famously said "A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right." When leaders look the other way, they are on the path to making a disrespectful act appear "right" whether that was intended or not. Granted, talking about respect is difficult and we don't have clear instructions for how to build a culture of respect. Or do we? Stayed tuned for Respect, Interpreted Part 2.

Each year I raise questions that help leaders stay current as ethical expectations change. Here are 5 new questions to tackle as we head into a New Year.
Where are our areas of strength and our gaps in adapting to increasing ethical expectations?
What will we do to close the gaps we've identified within the next 3 months?
What evidence will we look for to prove that we have closed the gaps?
How will we make this a regular conversation so that we can avoid gaps in the future?
How will we help others answer these important questions?
Expecting ethical challenges is easy. Preparing to handle them well is more difficult. Schedule time to work through these difficult questions with your teams as we head into the New Year.
I had the privilege of hearing best-selling author Blanche Wiesen Cook speak at The University of Richmond last night. Her topic was "Toward an Inclusive Democracy: Eleanor Roosevelt's Legacy." Cook has spent many years researching and writing about Eleanor Roosevelt's life and journey. During the inspiring talk, Cook noted that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which Eleanor Roosevelt championed, is turning 70 this month.
Now is the perfect time to learn about Eleanor Roosevelt's human rights journey and the Universal Declaration she championed. It is timely for us to reflect now on how far we have left to go on the journey toward honoring the rights and dignity of every human who resides in our global village.
Cook shared Eleanor Roosevelt's sage advice to "BE BOLD" and "Talk to one another when we disagree." That advice will serve us well as we work to overcome differences and uphold ethical values. Why is this 70 year human rights journey so important now? The baton has been passed to us, and we must run the next lap.
Ethical leadership requires us to understand the context and embrace the natural complexity of issues. One of the pieces that we can't be successful without is learning from the widely varying perspectives of others.
Thinking in a vacuum without considering the needs of others we may forget important elements of the decision-making process. Have you heard the expression "There's no 'I' in team?" Maybe there's also (metaphorically) no 'I' in ethical thinking when we need to understand complex issues.
In highly complex situations we need to listen to and learn from each other to get ethics right.
One person will be the most knowledgeable about laws governing our work, another will understand the trends and consumer expectations, yet another will ask hard questions to make sure we consider our constituents' needs. Dealing with particularly complex issues demands an inclusive thinking process. Without any one of these important voices we may lose our way.


Deniliquin Riverside Caravan Park is a family owned and operated park. Andrew and Shelley Hall have been your hosts since 2004. Nestled within a River Redgum forest on the banks of the Edward River, Deniliquin Riverside Caravan Park has all the peace of a countryside caravan park, within walking distance of the Deniliquin CBD.
We are proud to be the only park in the region this close to the centre of the action, though you'd never know it, whilst exploring our peaceful facilities.
Cast a line from one of the riverfront ensuite sites, launch your boat onto the Edward River for an adventure through the Murray-Darling basin, or just wander into town for a good meal and great wine, this is the place to do it all.
Deniliquin Riverside Caravan Park is set in 12 acres of bushland teeming with wildlife. It's one of the things that makes us a favourite with families who love the space to roam, as well as with wanderers who enjoy the peace and quiet and our quality touches approach.
Kids love our in-ground pool, rec room, jumping cushion and playground, while for the adults there's first class golf facilities, walking tracks and water skiing spots all within easy reach. And for those that would rather put their feet up? Take your pick from our cabins ranging from budget motel style cabins right through to luxurious 2 bedroom riverfront villas. If you are into camping we have ensuite riverfront powered sites, standard riverfront powered sites or our informal non powered bush camping area. Once settled in, kick back and enjoy our top notch, clean and modern facilities.


Realizations of an x-year employee. What I have learned and, hopefully, will learn.
These days, we're expected to produce as much high-quality work as we can in a fairly limited amount of time. To do this, we need to strategize productivity.

After months of keeping our secret, Bella and I were sure we'd find a way to stay together, to keep our romance from taking us down.
We'd been so careful, taken every measure, every failsafe option there was to stay under the radar.
My cousin, the rightful heir to the Avery fortune, found out anyway.
Now? He's out for blood.
I swore I'd keep her safe, promised I'd do whatever it takes to make sure this side of my life never touched her.
I had no idea that promise would be so impossible to keep.
I've already failed her once.
I'd be damned if I do it again.
I still can't believe how quickly I fell for Adam.
We spent our first two months in a whirlwind, keeping our secret from the world until one day, it spilled to the masses.
I'd risk it all to keep him.
The problem with that is that he would, too and he had more to lose than anyone I'd ever known.
He asked for my trust, earned it plenty of times over, but how far would he go to keep me?
Am I destined to be the reason his empire comes crashing down?
Or would we somehow find redemption?

I have owned rental property for over 10 years now and have made more mistakes than I would like to admit.
Listed below are some of the mistakes that I have made, as well as common mistakes I see other first-time landlords make.
The vast majority of landlords buy a rental property, plan on doing some renovation work and increasing rent dramatically after the renovations. Yes, you will get a higher rent rate but probably not as high as expected.
You can fix this very easily by marketing the property on Craigslist before the renovations are complete. You can judge by the response rate how in-line you are with the market. The majority of the most successful landlords I know keep their properties rented at below market rates.
Why on earth would they do this? Because honestly if you get a good renter that pays on-time and treats the property well it's worth it. Additionally, vacancy expenses and turnover time are huge costs.
By keeping your properties at below market rent you keep your properties at 100% occupancy.
Once you get a tenant that starts paying late, you need to be charging the late fee in your lease. Additionally, if they are paying so late that it is cause for eviction in your lease you need to do this.
Do not accept partial payments.
My wife hates to hear the term "side project." I work a lot of hours already at my full-time job. I have a wife and kids and other responsibilities. My rental property business changed dramatically when I went from 1 to 10 units.
This is substantial money and you can use this strategy to pay down your debt faster.
However, several of my friends just buy one rental property and complain about the headaches. Here's the thing, 1 rental property is a headache because you don't have enough revenue to justify the time and extra costs.
Using the above rent numbers with one door you would only make $9,600 in annual revenue and $1,920 in cash-flow margin.
Note, I'm defining cash-flow margin as what is left after debt service, taxes, insurance and maintenance. This margin will vary dramatically by the age of the properties.
This has been my biggest lesson learned as a landlord. Maintenance expenses have made a property I thought was going to going be a home run into an absolute cash-drain. This issue is absolutely critical for you to understand if you plan on investing in multifamily properties.
Tenants will not take care of the property as well as you think.
Animals (especially cats) can destroy a lot more than you think. Water damage has caused me to: replace roofs, exterior walls, flooring, baseboards, floor joist, you get the idea!
Hopefully you are trying to grow and scale your real estate business. A lot of first-time landlords go in and put 20% cash down on their investment properties. They then use additional cash to improve the property.
There is nothing wrong with this strategy. However, bankers are the one that came up with this strategy because it benefits the bank the most. Unless you have more cash than you know what to do with for the foreseeable future, this strategy is going to greatly constrain your growth.
I know three real estate investors that went from a net worth of basically zero dollars to having a net worth of over a million dollars in five years. They all used several different methods of financing like: equity joint ventures, private loans, hard-money loans, and bank financing just to name a couple.
I'm sure this one is going to be controversial. However, I will be the first to admit this is only from my experience. There are several great property management companies in my area, like Memphis Invest, plus several in Hawaii that my friends use.
Ask Lucas #9: Should I Hire a Property Manager?
By hiring a property management company to handle issues you are not going to learn how to deal with the problems yourself, you are simply going to be reliant on the property managements systems and procedures.
Additionally, you would think that since the majority of them get paid as a percentage of revenue that they are very incentivized to show your property off and get it rented quickly.
I have found this to be false, and a trap for first-time landlords.
The majority of property management firms are under-staffed and focused on their larger customers.
There is no one as motivated as you to get the property rented.
Cozy provides a great set of free tools for market your property, accepting applications, running credit checks and receiving rent. All that is left to deal with is maintenance issues.
Several of my friends use Cozy and they have it in their lease that anything under $100 the tenant is responsible for. However, be cautious of charging repair deductibles for repairs that are really your responsibility.
Any problem over that they are directed to call a general contractor that they have a good relationship with. This simple but powerful system will completely negate the need for a property management company and more importantly make your real estate business more profitable. Just be sure to have final approval on all work done – before the contractor starts.
This is perhaps the biggest mistake I see people making. Everybody has an opinion and it seems like everybody has heard of some horrible tenant story.

I have always had fear of owning more than one rental property and market crashing after a while. I need your perspective as to how do landlord survive if they have like more than two rental properties and suddenly the market crashes like we had in 2008-2013? How did you survive during real estate crash? I have been told by friends not to buy too many properties as I will be in trouble when market crashes.
I will answer this question for you. The market crash affected mostly people who had mortgages, and if you were to keep your properties rented, then the "crash" should not have been a concern. Even if you are losing a little money each month, it is better to have a house rented for $900 and lose $100 (assuming your mortgage was $1000) then to have the property vacant and lose $1000 per month.
I have held multiple properties for more than 25 years (while working a full time career) and if you keep your tenants happy and your houses in good repair, your tenants will refer people to you. I could rent 10 more houses (if I had them) just from the referrals alone. I usually have a stack of people waiting/wanting to rent.
For me, diversity in rental properties is great. With that being said, I wouldn't be too leveraged.
We have been landlords for 17 years. We have had as many as 8 single family homes. What we have done and committed to, was that we NEVER took a second loan on rental property, or a HELOC loan. We got 30 year fixed mortgages, saved our money in an rental escrow account. When the escrow account grew, we would place funds down on the principle of the homes. That way you reduce your mortgage from 30 to 15 year fixed. Our tenants average 3 to 5 years of occupancy. Another advice, NEVER let tenant perform any work on the home, without a signed addendum stipulating the cost of the repair, time line for the repair and your written approval BEFORE any work is done.
Great points George! Thanks for commenting!
Hello. I just got into the real estate market. we took a home equity line of credit out to buy our house. I was looking for information on other ways to acquire properties, but not sure any other way. Thank you.
Keep following the blog – I have one related to this that should be published soon!
Great comments from the others, and another helpful article, keep it up! Yes, check venues like Craigslist to see where the market is, and be a bit under. I also tell my tenants that our mutual understanding is that I take care of safety and comfort issues. I will not put a new rug in if the path between the bedroom and bath is slightly worn. When an issue arises, it gets handled. Our tenant who has been with us the least amount of time is 3 years, with the others between 5 and 7 years. I do have to check the 20% net figure.
Barry – that is AWESOME!
The fact that your tenants are with you for a minimum of 3 years is a testament to how good of landlord you are.
2: Tricky. Evictions are time consuming & expensive. Of course the longer you wait to actually do it, the more expensive it becomes. I'd say evicting ASAP is the best course in 80% of cases.
5: Tricky. And risky. You know what they say about slow & steady. Borrowing can grow your business fast but is also one of the things that can make you fail. For every 5 year millionaire there's at least 2 failed borrowers who drowned in debt.
Regarding "4. Underestimating Maintenance Expenses": the rule of thumb seems to be 10% of gross rent toward maintenance expenses. Is this what Landlordology recommends?
I typically recommend 5-7% for everyday and preventative maintenance, and then another 5-7% for CapEx (big repairs like roofs, HVACs, siding, all windows, etc). Together, if you save allocate 10-15% of your rental income for these, you should be okay.
The reason I say 10 to 15% is because if your monthly rent amount is less than 2,500K, I'd suggest 15%. If it's over $2,500, I'd say you could get by with 10%.
10% of 5K is a whole lot more than 15% of 2K. See what I mean?
Hey Lucas, thanks for the reply. Yeah my initial question was slightly longer using higher and lower rent amounts like you did as an example. I was thinking the same thing. So rather than separate Maintenance and CapEx, you sort of lump them into one 10-15% allocation? The monthly rents on my properties are under the $1000 threshold so I'd probably be OK allocating 15% toward the "Maintenance/CapEx Fund". Great site by the way! So informative!!
I actually use 20% to be conservative. Note, I'm also buying older properties that were typically built before 1970.
I rented to a renter about 8 years ago. Everything went well for two years and he then informed me that he would like his two brothers take over his lease. Fine. They stayed about 5 years and then he wanted to move back in. Fine. However, whatever had changed in his life he ended up not paying me rent and coming up with excuses. Because we had an existing relationship I believed him. He finally got out, owing me $3,000, with $1,000 in legal fees and a pending court case. My point is, treat every tenant like a new tenant, even if they moved out under good terms in the past. Re-run background checks, credit checks, etc. Get first, last and security from them and move IMMEDIATELY on eviction notices on the date your state allows you to.
Great points Paul! I especially agree with your last sentence!
6. Can someone help me understand the idea of passing the expense of repairs under $100 to the tenant in the lease? Is there an example of this lease entry in the Lease articles? I would appreciate a better way of clarifying this in my lease.

Financials have sprinted higher since late last year when the first vaccine was approved in the U.S., which prompted optimism about the eventual economic recovery—one that is now unfolding.
This equity sector has significantly outperformed the overall market, surging 38 percent since early November 2020, double the S&P 500's gain of 19 percent and outpacing all other sectors (excluding Energy).
Is there further to go? We think so.
Certainly the recent run has been eye-popping. But some additional context is useful. Actually, the sector's performance has yet to catch up to the S&P 500 going back to just before the COVID-19 earthquake hit.
Financials have significantly outperformed
S&P 500 performance vs. Financials and other key categories
The chart shows that the Financials sector has outperformed the broader U.S. equity market and other key segments significantly since November 9, 2020, when the Pfizer vaccine was approved. Financials are up 39.7% since then, whereas the broader "value" category is up 24%, the S&P 500 is up 18.8%, and the "growth" category is up only 14.4% during the same period.
Note: The Value and Growth categories are measured by the S&P 500 Value and S&P 500 Growth indexes.
Source - RBC Wealth Management, Bloomberg; data from 11/9/20 (day of Pfizer vaccine approval) through 6/9/21
Financials are still trailing the S&P 500, with a gain of 21 percent for the former and 31 percent for the latter, since the beginning of 2020—a time frame that takes into account the severe selloff during the worst stage of the COVID-19 pandemic over a year ago.
We think there is more catch-up room ahead for U.S. Financials because of numerous catalysts.
Maintaining the mojo
A number of the sector's tailwinds are related to the early stage of the economic recovery, while others are due to the overall sturdy nature of banking operations in the U.S. and some breathing room on the regulatory front.
We think the following potential catalysts should push the Financials sector higher:
Early-cycle impulses: Financials tend to outperform in the early part of the economic recovery cycle, along with the overall value/cyclicals category, of which the sector is a component. The market rally associated with this stage typically has two phases—first, a sprint out of the gate (which has already occurred, but could continue), and then a consolidation period or pullback followed by a renewed rally that transpires at a slower pace (the second leg of the rally). Historically, the Financials sector has not only outperformed the S&P 500 during the sprint out of the gate but also outperformed during the second leg of the rally, according to a study by RBC Capital Markets, LLC's Head of U.S. Equity Strategy Lori Calvasina.
A beneficiary of inflation: When the public perceives that inflation will increase, Energy, Materials, and Financials tend to outperform the most, according to Calvasina's data going back to 2004, which is shown in a chart toward the end of this "Inflation aftershock" article. We think the buoyant May inflation data that was just released, with the Consumer Price Index jumping five percent from last year, is supportive of this catalyst.
The potential to hike dividends: The banking analyst at our national research correspondent anticipates "substantial dividend increases," including roughly 20 percent hikes for some of the largest institutions, and rising dividend payout ratios over the next 18 months. While the regulatory environment for banks is still tighter than it was before the global financial crisis in 2008–09—and will likely remain so—there has been some easing in requirements, and industry analysts anticipate the allowance of further dividend increases. This aforementioned analyst and RBC Capital Markets, LLC's Head of U.S. Bank Equity Strategy Gerard Cassidy anticipate some movement on the dividend front following the release of the Federal Reserve's Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR) of the banking industry, scheduled for June 24.
Fund flows firing: Strong inflows of cash have poured into Financials sector exchange-traded funds (ETFs), outpacing all other sectors in absolute dollar amounts so far this year, and edging out all other sectors as a proportion of assets under management in the past 12 months. We think the Financials sector's recent outperformance will further boost inflows from a category of ETFs that has become popular—"momentum" funds. These securities include stocks that have experienced strong price gains and earnings trends, typically over the previous 12 months. For a long time Financials barely had been represented in momentum funds due to the sector's previous underperformance; instead, these funds were dominated by technology-related stocks. But now we think that is set to change as momentum ETFs rebalance over time to include stocks that have performed well more recently.
Better profitability due to yield curve dynamics: While we don't foresee dramatic moves in Treasury yields over the near term, our fixed income strategists anticipate further modest steepening of the Treasury yield curve, as the 10-year yield drifts somewhat higher toward two percent by year end and short-term rates stay anchored as the Fed keeps its target rate near zero percent. Cassidy believes this will lead to higher net interest margins and net interest revenues for banks.
Improved loan growth and less excess liquidity: Abundant stimulus from the Fed and Washington has held back banks' profitability, but that should change. In a mid-May report Cassidy wrote, "Monetary and fiscal policy over the last 12+ months has led to double-digit deposit growth and has resulted in many banks having excess liquidity on their balance sheets. Loan-to-deposit ratios have plummeted, and bank profitability has been hurt as a result. Over the next 12–18 months, we expect this trend to ease-up as loan growth picks up, deficit spending falls, and the Federal Reserve's Quantitative Easing (QE) program comes to an end."
Earnings momentum and then some: Financials are expected to deliver stronger earnings growth than the S&P 500 in 2021, 45.5 percent versus 33.4 percent year over year. We believe there is upside to the 2021 forecast and, importantly, Cassidy anticipates that 2022 consensus estimates for banks have room to push higher. We don't think this is fully factored into current stock prices.
Financials are expected to outpace the S&P 500
2021 consensus earnings growth forecasts (year-over-year)
The chart compares 2021 consensus year-over-year earnings growth forecasts for the S&P 500 and selected equity categories. Cyclicals up 99%, Financials up 45.5%, S&P 500 up 33.4%, Tech-related stocks up 26.8%, and Non-cyclicals up 10.7%.
Note: The Tech+ category represents technology-related stocks in various S&P 500 sectors
Source - National research correspondent, Refinitiv I/B/E/S, FactSet; data as of 6/3/21
Not done yet
While the U.S. Financials sector has come a long way since late last year's initial vaccine approval, we think it has room to run due to a full tank of catalysts, which should play out over the course of the next six months and longer. We would stay Overweight U.S. Financials. We also continue to favor this sector in other markets such as Canada, the UK, and Europe as similar economic dynamics are at play.

Will consumers ever get over the price hurdle for sustainable goods?
Despite heightened awareness over climate change threats in recent years, surveys continue to battle it out over how much of a premium consumers are willing to pay for sustainable goods.
A recent survey of 3,000 U.K. consumers from Asda, for instance, found 55 percent prepared to make significant lifestyle changes to reduce their carbon footprint, including recycling (89 percent), turning off lights or devices when not using them (84 percent) and driving less (52 percent).
Fifty percent, however, say they are not prepared to pay more for greener everyday items such as milk and bread. Seventy-six percent said lower prices would help them shop more sustainably.
Asda said the findings suggest that greater collaboration is needed between suppliers, manufacturers and retailers to remove the price barrier.
A survey of about 10,000 consumers across 17 countries from consultancy Simon-Kucher & Partners taken in July found 60 percent rating sustainability as an important purchase criterion. Only 34 percent, however, were willing to pay a premium for sustainable products. Gen Z (39 percent) and Millennials (42 percent) were more willing to pay up compared to Gen X (31 percent) and Boomers (26 percent).
Simon-Kucher said the findings showed "there is a market for 'mission-driven green' companies."
More encouragingly, a survey of 1,200 U.S. consumers from October from B2B software comparison website Capterra found 75-to-80 percent willing to pay higher prices for sustainable items across food and drink, apparel and household products categories. About 60 percent would pay "a little more" or "moderately more" across categories.
A July survey from First Insight and Wharton's Baker Retailing Center of more than 1,000 U.S. consumers found 68 percent willing to pay more for sustainable products, up from 58 percent from a survey taken in 2019. The improvement was attributed to heightened eco-consciousness from older generations.
"The global pandemic caused many to rethink their consumption and its impact on the health of the planet, yet Gen Z have been consistent in remaining true to their sustainability values while also educating and influencing the generations that came before them," said Greg Petro, CEO of First Insight, in a statement.

Why the Original Captain America Is Saying 'Hail Hydra'
Yesterday, articles went up all over the nerd internet focused on the revelations that explained the original Captain America's sudden and controversial status quo shift. But don't let the "I told you so" chorus drown out one crucial fact: the what of this big change is far less important than the why.
Everyone, Please Stop Freaking Out About That Ridiculous Captain America Reveal
It's All-New, All-Different Marvel! It's the All-New, All-Different adventures of Steve Rogers,…
Captain America: Steve Rogers #2 is out today, explaining why Steve Rogers said "Hail Hydra" a few weeks ago. First off: yes, the reasons for that shocking ending are pretty much exactly what many people (myself amongst them) thought they might be. The memories in Steve's head that showed him being recruited into the evil terrorist organization as a young boy were implanted by Kobik, the Cosmic Cube that evolved into a sentient four-year-old girl. And, yeah, Kobik was doing the bidding of the Red Skull, a plot beat that invokes on the historical connection that Cap's archenemy has had with the reality-warping artifacts.
But while the mechanism behind Steve Rogers' altered mindset might have been revealed in this week's issue, the drama behind this status quo shift isn't anywhere near resolved. As with his work in the Captain America: Sam Wilson book, Spencer is taking on the notion of Captain America as a symbol. This storyline seems to be designed to explore the feelings that arise when citizens can no longer trust the institutions that they've been told to put their faith in.
It's a story that Spencer's been building towards ever since the Standoff crossover, which revealed that SHIELD had created a Kobik-powered, warped-reality prison for supervillains in a sleepy suburb. There have been previous storylines that have shown SHIELD playing fast and loose with due process, human rights, and situational morality before but the Pleasant Hill incident was still a very bleak moment for the super-spy organization. Captain America: Steve Rogers #2 shows that, while Pleasant Hill was an implanted suggestion from the Red Skull, it was embraced wholeheartedly and with free will by SHIELD commander Maria Hill.
Now, every time SHIELD shows up, the reader—and average civilian in the Marvel Universe—will wonder if they're going to do the right thing. And fans will be wondering the same thing about Steve Rogers, too. That unease should be a powerful dramatic tool. We're not going to know exactly when the implanted Hydra priorities will take precedence in Steve's adventures moving forward. This isn't direct mind control; the Skull finds that level of power boring.
The new status quo is more insidious than mere telepathic commands beamed into the first Captain America's skull. Deep down, a part of him believes in the Hydra agenda. So far, the pacing on this storyline feels brisk, making it tough to tell how quickly it might resolve. It could wrap up in months. Or it might go on for years because there's a whole other Captain America in play, one who hasn't said "Hail Hydra."
The proceedings amount to a queasy bit of turnabout that taps into the anxieties stirred up by Donald Trump's candidacy and the Brexit "leave' vote."What happens when we can't believe in the original Captain America? How will some people act when the person really upholding the ideals of the Sentinel of Liberty doesn't look like them? What happens when Steve Rogers can't believe in himself?
Another great write-up, mate. Allow me one last "fan" comment, and I promise I'll stop...
Your increased presence here is going a long way toward bringing io9 back to it's pre-Gizmodo-assimilation glory days. Not a critique of Rob or Germain (etc) in any way, and also not because I'm some huge comics collector or whatever. But I do have an io9 t-shirt ;)
Your style (and obvious exuberance, intellect and knowledge) reminds me a bit of CJ. And that upbeat, vibrant, and positive tone is my io9.
Beyond my own impressions, I imagine the "clicks" will back me up. And I also suspect you've sent many folks to the bookstores/comics sites with these sort of articles.
Nice to meet you, live long and prosper, and I'll officially try to stop making this sort of comment now (because it's not really what the comments section is for, right?). I'll just use Twitter when I wanna throw random kudos.
Cheers, Evan!


In today's economy every penny counts. Many of us are wondering how we are going to make ends when prices are going up and our pay remains flat. Well here are a few tips that can put an extra paycheck in your pocket every month.
* Eat a big breakfast and take a lite lunch to work. Fast food is unhealthy and costly.
* Rent movies instead of going to the theater. Invite friends over enjoy a fun filled inexpensive evening.
* Carpool at every opportunity, work, school, shopping, medical appointments etc.
* Use public transportation whenever possible.
* Buy a used car. Many car lots have used cars that are only a year or two old and have very low mileage.
* Skip the morning or evening stop at Starbucks. If you need coffee in the morning take it with you from home.
* Stop all costly habits such as smoking, buying snacks at gas stops etc.
* Shop with a list only. Never shop with out knowing what it is exactly you are going to buy. Buy it and STOP.
* Keep your car tuned and don't carry any extra weight. This will get you the most mileage per gallon of gas.
* When eating out bring home leftovers. Some restaurants serve enough for two meals on one plate.
* Each thing you buy should be preceded by thinking to yourself "Do I really need this, or can it wait.
* If you have small children try to leave them with someone while you shop. This alone can save you a fortune.
* LEAVE YOUR CREDIT CARDS AT HOME. It does not make sense to be paying interest on something you ate months ago.
I hope this helps you as much as it has helped me.

Is asking for a humble plate really too much?
We've all seen them. Chips in baskets, steak on slabs and cured meats on chopping boards - and those are some of the more tame examples.
If you've ever been on the Internet - or out for dinner in a 21st century British city - you'll no doubt be aware serving food on traditional dinner plates seems to be a bit uncool. The edgier and more 'hip' the cuisine, the higher the chance of it being served in an obscure and downright ridiculous vessel.
While foodies and fine diners might be a little more accustomed to their meals being presented in outlandish contraptions, for the average eater it just feels a little bit contrived. The trend is impractical at best, and downright ridiculous at worst. What happened to plates?
If you find yourself lamenting the decline of the humble plate, don't worry. You're not alone. A Twitter account called @WeWantPlates is making light work of ribbing every and any meal served in an, ahem, alternative way, and it's already amassed a whopping 134,000 followers.
It's run by Ross McGinnes, who told the Liverpool Echo he was inspired to set up the page after seeing a friend post a picture of an 'average-sized steak and manky salad' served on a chopping board to Facebook. For him, the photo in question was a step too far, and a community of crockery-loving aficianados was born in the form of @WeWantPlates.
These are some of the best @WeWantPlates submissions from right here in Bristol. While the meals in question may be delicious, the methods restaurants have used to serve them leave a lot to be dseired... if you love your food served on plates, that is.
It might be served in a trophy, but this creation is winning no prizes among fans of We Want Plates.
2. Breakfast is served. But not in the way you might want it.
Unless you're a student drowning in washing up, there's no excuse to eat out of a frying pan. NONE.
Why was this in a casserole dish?
So many questions need answering here. Why are those plates on the wall? What happens when you pour the sauce over that steak? We despair.
This thing of wonder is from The Stable in Bristol. They're pizza connoisseurs, so why didn't they realise this meal on a pizza board isn't pizza?
8. Nothing is safe. NOTHING.
Even drinks haven't escaped. Why can't we just have glasses?
There's no chopping happening here. Put the boards away and give us a plate.

Spl economic zones soon in Nawabganj
The Prime Minister's adviser on private industries and investment Salman F Rahman has said a special economic zone will be introduced at Nawabganj upazila as soon as possible. About 700 to 800 acres of land for the economic zone have already been allocated. He also said he would gradually implement all his promises made to the people of the Nawabganj and Dohar upazilas. Rahman was speaking as the chief guest at a prize-giving ceremony organised by Choto Rajpara Government Primary School in the Nawabganj upazila of Dhaka (Saturday).
"We are relentlessly trying to implement Bangabandhu"s dream to make Bangladesh "Sonar Bangla" under the astute leadership of Sheikh Hasina. I hope we can achieve this," he said. "Many quarters, including a certain political party of the country, tried several times to assassinate Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, but failed eventually. They even tried to put up obstacles before Sheikh Hasina"s work aimed at taking the country forward," he added.
He said he had already directed the upazila engineering office to make a list of all dilapidated roads in the upazila and prepare a project. "I will try to pass the project in parliament," he added.
"Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has directed us to work for building the villages to town, which will be gradually implemented under the leadership of the Prime Minister. "All efforts were on to upgrade Dohar and Nawabganj upazilas to towns. And the two upazilas will be the best upazila among the others upazilas of the country," he said.
He urged all people of the upazilas to come forward to implement development efforts.
"By killing the father of the nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in 1975, some people tried to foil the spirit of the independence. But they failed when Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina came to power in 1996," said Rahman.
After the programme, he inaugurated a new school building at the Nawabganj Pilot Girls School and College.
During the inauguration, he said that the Prime Minister was working for women"s empowerment. And many government high officials are now women. To increase women participation in different fields, it was important to improve the academic results of girls. "The Prime Minister also said that to increase the number of women members of parliament to more than 50 per cent, we should first ensure proper education of girls," he said.
Rahman said the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) era was approaching fast. For that students would have to be skilled in technological aspects especially in computer programming and the coding system.
He also said students were the future of the country, and the country would go forward under the leadership of the students in future.
During the programme, the teachers of these schools raised different issues before the adviser to the Prime Minister and Rahman assured them of early implementation of the demands.

Pierce Brosnan's Sons Paris and Dylan Named 2020 Golden Globe Ambassadors
The Brosnan boys will be the first pair of brothers to act as ambassadors for the awards show, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association said
By Ashley Boucher
Pierce Brosnan is one proud papa!
Pierce's sons Dylan and Paris are the next Golden Globe Ambassadors, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced Thursday.
The James Bond star's sons, who he shares with Keely Shaye Brosnan, will be the first pair of brothers to hold the title, which was held last year by Idris Elba's daughter Isan Elba.
"Dylan and Paris Brosnan have already achieved tremendous success in the fashion world and are following in their father's footsteps in entertainment," the Hollywood Foreign Press Association president Lorenzo Soria said in a release Thursday. "We're excited to see how they'll use this platform to contribute their talents to elevate the important issue of childhood hunger."
Earlier this year, Paris, 18, traveled to Sri Lanka to make a short film about the ongoing work being done in the South Asian island country by the UN World Food Programme (WFP) for child hunger. He's now a freshman at Loyola Marymount University's School of Film and Television.
Dylan, 22, joined his dad on the red carpet for Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood this summer, and has appeared in Saint Laurent fashion shows in 2015 and 2016, according to Vogue. He's also a musician in the band Raspberry Blonde.

Paris has also stepped into the fashion world and walked in the Fashion for Relief show at the British Museum during London Fashion Week in September. Before he walked down the runway with model Stella Maxwell, Paris and Pierce hit the red carpet together in matching suits.
On Thursday, Paris said that he and Dylan "understand the value of education and its importance in equipping the next generation with skills to succeed."

"I've never had to worry about where my next meal might come from — I'm lucky in that respect; but I know that millions of children worldwide don't have that luxury," he continued. "School meals provide critically important nutrition, and also incentivize parents to keep kids in school, giving them a fighting chance for a better life."

Office of University Admissions 2300 Adams Avenu | Scranton, PA | 18509
SAT Scores (EBRW + Math): 930 - 1120
Marywood University is well-known for offering some of the most unique and outstanding pre-professional programs of study in the Pennsylvania area. Students rave about the "really fantastic" education department, and they call the art therapy program "top-notch," while the music program has a "fabulous reputation," and the strength of the speech pathology, nutrition, physician assistant, school of architecture, and interior design programs also draw students from all over the area to the university. In addition to these outstanding programs, this small Catholic university, which consists of four colleges, a school of architecture, and a school of social work also offers a wide range of traditional undergraduate majors. Students characterize Marywood as "a small community that is serious about its academics." Class sizes are "small, and it is easy to ask for help." "Professors here know your name and are always willing to help you," and according to Marywood students, "Small class sizes and attentive professors tend to favor discussion-based classroom settings." The professors at Marywood "have a good mix of personalities." Some professors "are nuns and priests, but most are not," and "many of the professors are also currently working in the field," which allows students to have a much richer, interactive learning experience.
Students describe the Marywood University community as "wholesome and welcoming." A typical Marywood student is "well-rounded, friendly, and passionate about [his or her] field of study." There tend to be subtle social divisions between various fields of study: "Students tend to gather in groups based on friendships formed through their majors." Though the campus is not very diverse ethnically or economically, there is a great deal of diversity along the lines of students' interests and personalities. Students "range from the athletic to the very religious to the extremely studious." There are many art students on campus due to the strength of the art department, and there is a "great deal of athletes" as well. There is also a significantly larger percentage of females to males on campus. Many students are local to the area, and in general, the student body is made up of equal parts commuter students and students who dorm. Because of the small size of the university, "you see many of the same faces every day" and "get to know a lot of people" in the small campus community. "Most students interact with each other and get along well."
Students love "the warm and welcoming feel of the campus. Everyone is so friendly, and there is so much to do. It's more like a home than a school." There is "usually something to do during weeknights"; the student activities club "organizes events like Bingo and Trivia Night a few times each semester as well as organizing other entertainment such as comedians and movie nights. There are clubs for every interest you can imagine." There are also a "large number of recreational sports and classes available to students" on campus. On weekends, however, "campus usually turns into a ghost town." On-campus rules in regard to alcohol are "overly strict," resulting in weekend activities that often take place off campus, at "house parties and the University of Scranton." "Students also enjoy going to clubs and bars in the downtown Scranton area on weekends," and there are even clubs that allow students ages eighteen and up. First Fridays are a popular "monthly art/music/culture event that occurs downtown, providing the opportunity to meet local artists and musicians." The large population of commuter students at Marywood say, "If you dorm, it is easier to be involved on campus, but commuting life is different for most people…Clubs and events are aimed more toward people who live on campus." As for parking on campus, students say, "Finding a parking spot is as difficult as winning the lottery."

How Much Can You Earn & Still Collect Unemployment?
1 If I Get Fired From My Job, Can I Collect Benefits?
2 Can You Transfer Unemployment From Different States?
3 Can You Collect Unemployment if You Lost Your Job and Have a DBA Business?
The amount you can earn through part-time or temporary work while on unemployment depends on your state's policies. In many cases, you can still receive partial benefits, provided that your earnings don't exceed the amount that you are making in benefits. In all cases, however, it's important that you report your earnings to avoid being charged with unemployment fraud.
Working while on unemployment is a way to supplement your unemployment income, network, improve your job skills and possibly even get hired for full-time work. Each state has its own policies on calculating unemployment benefits for recipients who work part-time, temporary or odd jobs. Many states allow workers to collect unemployment benefits until their total earnings equal or exceed what they collect on unemployment.
Unemployment agencies require you to report your earnings when you certify for your benefits. The unemployment agency then uses this information to determine whether you are eligible for full or reduced benefits. If your weekly earnings exceed your current benefit amount, you usually won't receive benefits for that week. Your state's unemployment agency can explain what types of income must be reported. For example, some states may require you to report barter, commissions from direct selling products like Avon or Tupperware or jury duty payments as income.
Your state has a formula for reducing your benefit income when you earn wages though in some states, a significant amount of money may be exempt from counting against your unemployment benefits. While Ohio only allows you to earn 20 percent of your regular benefit amount before a reduction takes place, Illinois lets you earn 50 percent of your normal benefit check without any deductions. Every state's formula is slightly different, but typically, the state reduces your benefit in proportion to how much your income exceeds the exemption.
Failing to report income earned while on unemployment is against the law. Employers generally inform states when they hire someone, so the state unemployment agency will eventually learn that you earned money while collecting benefits. Many states also encourage people to report unemployment fraud, so it is very possible that a neighbor or someone you know may report your working "off the books" for someone else. The consequences for unemployment fraud can be severe and include having to pay back the money, ineligibility for unemployment benefits for a period of time and, in some cases, criminal charges.

The Energy Efficiency Directive sets out energy savings requirements for central government buildings of EU countries. National plans (long-term renovation strategies) to be established for countries' overall building stock, formerly an obligation under the Energy Efficiency Directive, are now an obligation under the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive.
Every year, EU countries are required to renovate at least 3% of the total floor area of buildings owned and occupied by central government. EU countries prepare a public inventory of all central government buildings with a total useful floor area of over 500 m2.
so-called deep renovations that go beyond minimum energy performance requirements. In this case, the total floor area renovated in central government buildings annually may be less than 3%.
The measures are part of the national energy efficiency action plans (NEEAPs) and were submitted by EU countries in 2013 and 2014.
