Are you running Facebook Ads? Are you happy with your results? Do you struggle to measure their impact and return on investment?
A lot of advertisers are growing frustrated with their Facebook results due to a lack of an overall Facebook marketing strategy.
In this article, you'll discover three reasons not to run Facebook Ads until you have some of the fundamentals of Facebook marketing in place.
Many people often confuse advertising with marketing. While nuanced, advertising is just one component of marketing and should be a part of your comprehensive marketing strategy. With this in mind, let's take a look at what the difference between marketing and advertising on Facebook entails.
Marketing on Facebook has shifted over the last year as the social media giant makes a concerted effort to keep users on the platform longer with videos and instant articles.
A lot of businesses adapted their marketing strategy by posting more and various types of content. Remember, Facebook is a social media platform.
The goal for businesses is to build a basic marketing funnel by reaching people who matter the most, engaging with their community, driving traffic to their website and finding new customers.
In essence, this is marketing on Facebook. Businesses should develop a marketing strategy specifically designed for the platform and leverage the features it has to offer. One of the features is advertising.
Facebook Ads should compliment your marketing strategy and not be your only form of marketing on the platform. You could pay for ads to amplify your marketing efforts like boosting a post or promoting a video.
If you're not doing any of the above marketing tactics and just rely on Facebook Ads to move the needle then you're at risk of wasting advertising dollars. Or at the very least, you're not maximizing ROI from your advertising efforts.
Do you have an engaged community on Facebook?
Is your advertising an aspect of your marketing strategy?
If your answer is no to both of those questions then you're probably frustrated with your Facebook results.
Looking into the future, what are your business goals for being on Facebook? If you can't answer then stop spending time and resources until you get this figured out.
Who is going to post your content? What types of content? How often? These are important questions to ask yourself because having a blank timeline just won't cut it.
You need to have a content strategy for engaging your community, attracting new customers and meeting your company goals. Facebook's Newsfeed algorithm changes constantly and you need someone responsible for keeping up-to-date.
What Is Your Customer Service Strategy?
Who's going to reply to all those messages and comments? Whether through Facebook messenger or on posts, there needs to be someone dedicated to answering and interacting with people's comments.
If you don't have someone in place then I wouldn't recommend Facebook advertising. Hold off or pause until there's someone to respond to your community's questions or comments. Not doing so, can be detrimental to your advertising results.
What's your customer service strategy?
If your business has a Facebook marketing strategy in place with the right resources to achieve that purpose then you're ahead of the game. The next step is understanding how to properly track and measure Facebook Advertising ROI.
If you're wondering if Facebook is having a positive impact on your business then take some time to analyze the data. There's no need to invest resources on Facebook if you're not measuring the results. Consider tracking campaigns with a website analytics tool like Google Analytics.
Measuring Only The Short-Term Impact?
On social media channels you have to measure the long-term impact on your business. Dave Hanley of Deloitte Digital came up with a great social media ROI model allowing brands to establish a current value on their social assets.
Measuring All Channels The Same?
If you're measuring every advertising channel with the same KPIs then you may be frustrated with your Facebook Ads performance.
As an advertiser, please stop expecting and measuring all channels to perform the same. I've worked with a lot of clients who expect Facebook to perform the exact same as their AdWords campaigns. That's not realistic given the customer intent and customer expectation on each platform. The bottom-line measurement must be separated and have different benchmarks and KPIs.
The customer journey has changed. We now live in a multi-channel, multi-device world where last click measurement doesn't cut it. When advertising on social media channels, businesses shouldn't rely on last-click attribution as the only way to measure effectiveness. Rather, the entire path to purchase has to analyzed and each step given a value.
Setup attribution models to develop a better way to measure the customer's path to purchase taking into consideration when and where the channel is playing a role.
I'm not saying you need to be able to track a like on Facebook to a sale on your website. I am saying analyze the conversion funnel from different angles and understand how customers utilize various platform to inform their purchase decision.
Lastly, Facebook provides many touch points to measure and analyze outside of just conversions. These should be considered and weighed into the value of your advertising. Things to consider measuring and tracking are post engagement, new fans, fan churn, reach, impressions, likes, comments, shares and ad recall lift.
Ad Recall Lift is the additional number of people Facebook estimates will remember seeing your ads if asked within 2 days. That's a really important metric to measure as that will impact your brand affinity and brand loyalty.
Facebook is an excellent social media platform where smart businesses can find a lot of value.
In order to get the most value and maximize results from Facebook make sure your business is set up for success by having a Facebook marketing strategy outside of advertising, the right resources in place to interact with customers and the ability to track and measure results across the customer's path to purchase.
You may get great results even if these tactics aren't in place, but I suspect they could be better if they were.
When considering and analyzing your Facebook advertising efforts make sure you have answered these questions first.
Does your company know the difference between advertising and marketing on Facebook?
Do you have a Facebook marketing strategy outside of advertising?
Do you have a Facebook advertising strategy that advances your marketing strategy?
Do you have dedicated resources to implement and execute the strategy?
Are you tracking and measuring your social ROI as well as your financial ROI?
Are you independently measuring channels with different KPIs?
Do you have a multi-channel attribution model in place?
BONUS: How much is all this valuable information worth to your business?
I think what matters is focusing on the Facebook marketing fundamentals, and not trying to skip ahead without having the pieces in place. I'd love to hear your thoughts on Facebook marketing and advertising.

REC TwinPeak 4 Series certified as a Low Carbon Footprint solar panel by CERTISOLIS
The latest-generation of the popular REC TwinPeak solar panel is now CERTISOLIS-certified for CRE4 and PPE2 tenders as well as for rooftop installations between 100 and 500 kWp in France.
Munich, Germany, November 17, 2021 – REC Group, an international pioneering solar energy company headquartered in Norway, announces that the fourth generation of its multiple award-winning REC TwinPeak solar panel has received CERTISOLIS certification for low carbon footprint (LCF). This officially qualifies the REC TwinPeak 4 for public sector tenders and rooftop installations between 100 and 500 kWp in France, which offers REC Certified Solar Professionals even better opportunities to gain business in the French solar market.
Significantly lower carbon footprint for a cleaner industry
The French Energy Regulatory Commission (CRE) requires all solar panels to have a carbon footprint certificate from CERTISOLIS in order to bid for projects in the latest round of renewable energy tenders under France's multi-year energy procurement program PPE2. To gain eligibility for rooftop installations between 100 and 500 kWp and for PPE2 tenders, solar panels need to have a carbon footprint value below 550 kg of CO2-eq per kWp.
With around 450 kg of CO2-eq per kWp, the REC TwinPeak 4 easily meets the eligibility conditions. Reinhard Lampe, Vice President Sales and Marketing REC Solar EMEA, "For 25 years, REC has been committed to pioneering solar technology with high efficiencies in order to drive the global energy transitions. With the PV industry growing in importance to fight climate change, we take our responsibility for sustainable innovations even more seriously. With its low carbon footprint, the REC TwinPeak 4 Series is a testament to this and creates greater opportunities for project developers in France with its long-lasting high performance."
Following the launch of the lead-free and RoHS compliant REC Alpha Series in April 2021, the REC TwinPeak 4 solar panel was unveiled just a month later and is now available in Europe. While a consumer's choice to go solar is doing good in general, how much good can vary greatly. If the expected 200GW of installed solar PV panels worldwide in 2022 would have a footprint of 100 kg CO2-eq per kWp less compared to the 550 required like the TwinPeak 4, the industry could save 20 mega tons of CO2-eq – this is the equivalent of shutting down 4.6 coal-fired power plants in the US for one year.
REC TwinPeak 4: new-gen strengths
Improving on the strengths that have made the TwinPeak product family such a success, it offers even better nominal power output, delivering up to 375 watt-peak from its 120 half-cut monocrystalline p-type cells. It also features the pioneering and multiple award-winning Twin Design. The improved cell structure, multi-busbar connection and the same 30 mm frame and support bars as in other leading REC solar panels enable the TwinPeak 4 to offer best in class performance and to withstand higher loads of +7000 Pa. These benefits in operation, supported by the comprehensive REC ProTrust Warranty package, including a 25-year warranty on the product, performance and labor, make a compelling business case for the REC TwinPeak 4 as the solar panel of choice for rooftop installations and for PPE2 tender projects in France.
REC strongly committed to CSR
As all REC solar panels, the TwinPeak 4 Series is manufactured in REC's highly efficient production site in Singapore using Industry 4.0 practices. The company is continuously driving Energy, Water and Waste Savings programs and is using also solar power on its rooftop to reduce its own environmental footprint. At its manufacturing site in Norway, REC invented a technology to convert kerf, a by-product of the wafer production process, to high-quality solar grade silicon, drastically reducing the carbon footprint. REC is committed to a holistic Corporate Social Responsibility according to the core subjects of ISO 26000. Detailed information available at recgroup.com/csr.
REC is a leading driver of innovation for premium quality solar modules and is dedicated since 25 years to empower consumers/households and businesses with clean solar energy and help them to reduce their electricity bills.

Q: Mac OS - Deployd - mongod fails to start I'm trying to use Deployd on my Mac. I've installed mongoDB and added it's bin folder to my $PATH - mongod runs perfectly with my user. The problem appears when I try to run Deployd, mongod fails to run.
I runned it with DEBUG=* dpdand the results I've got are:

The only way I've got deploy to run is with sudo dpd -d. I've changed /data/db's ownership from root to my user. I also changed the ownership of mongod and ./mongodb/bin.
Does someone knows what I'm missing?
Thanks in advance.

A: Try to pass the path to your mongod executable via the '-m' parameter
dpd -m /path/to/mongod/

as described here http://docs.deployd.com/docs/basics/cli.html

A: Have you ensured there are no extra mongo.lock and local files in your data folder.
I had the same issue and deleting these extra files solved the problem.
(I think these are generated when mongo is shut down ungracefully).

Gorgeous gardens
Horticulture and gardening are the kind of pursuits that reward dedication. Careful cultivation and a keen eye for style often leads to amazing displays of colour and crafted foliage, designed both for personal pleasure and as wonders to be shown off. And people really appreciate the efforts put in to showcase these tended aspects of the natural world – as demonstrated by the crowds that flock every year to see the Chelsea Flower Show.
There are some beautiful gardens all over the world that are well worth a vist. If you're a nature lover, enjoy walking and want to see some vibrant colours this year, jet off to one of these great destinations to take in the labours of love and landscaping that are on offer.
The Flexicover Team has some great options for indulging a love of botanic beauty!
Butchart Gardens; Brentwood Bay, Canada
Located on Vancouver Island just north of Victoria, the Butchart Gardens were established in the early 20th century from an exhausted quarry. Now regarded as one of the world's premier floral show gardens and a National Historic Site of Canada, the 55 acres of carefully tended grounds receive nearly 1 million visitors a year. Walk through intimate stone paths and explore the number of different areas, from the Italian to the Japanese gardens. Flower displays are adjusted to suit the seasons, so whenever you go, it's always full of vibrant colours and gorgeous scents. A peaceful place where you can spend a couple of hours or the whole day; it's no surprise that many visitors return year after year.
National Botanical Gardens; Victoria, Seychelles
Located on the outskirts of the capital, Victoria, and dating back more than a century, the Botanical Gardens are one of the country's oldest national monuments. If you'd like a day away from the gorgeous white sand beaches and want to get up close and personal with towering spice and fruit trees, giant tortoises (some around 150 years old) and even fruit bat colonies. With over 500 species of exotic and native Seychellois plants, this is a great place for nature lovers to escape to! Look out for the star attraction, the coco de mer palms which line the main promenade.
Monet's Garden; Giverny, France
Open from April to November, these wonderful gardens – only a short distance from Paris – inspired some of impressionist Claude Monet's most famous work (such as Water Lily Pond, painted in 1899). There are two main areas – the Clos normand, in front of the house, and the Japanese water garden over the road. The gardens are divided into small areas by hedges to represent many little worlds. Awe-inspiring landscaping, abundant wildflowers and water lilies make these gardens well worth a see if visiting France this year. You can also wander around the house where the artist settled with his family and take in all its serenity.
Majorelle Garden; Marrakech, Morocco
The Majorelle Garden is a walled town garden and one of the most visited sites in Morocco. Created by the French painter Jacques Majorelle, it took 40 years to create these enchanting gardens in the heart of the city. Take a gentle stroll around the 12 acre establishment and enjoy the looking at the lotus flowers, exotic plants and small pools filled with waterlilies. It's a delightful haven away from the hustle and bustle of bazaars and souks of Marrakech. The gardens became famous when former owner and fashion designer Yves Saint Lauren featured it in the Chelsea Flower Show. As an added draw, the garden also houses the Islamic Art Museum.
Jardim Botânico Fanchette Rischbieter; Curitiba, Brazil
Designed in a French style, the botanic gardens of Curitiba also houses part of the campus of the University of Paraná. It's a huge tourist attraction and its gardens centre around a beautiful greenhouse similar to that of London's 19th-century Crystal Palace. Marvel at the tropical greenhouse, set amidst flower-filled expanses, take in the gorgeous sculptures and waterfalls and have a picnic by the lake. The Botanic Museum is a world-renowned research collection housing a huge herbarium and reference species of many of Brazil's native flora. It's a perfect place for couples and families alike and makes for a great day out.
Wherever your travels take you this year and whichever garden you are lucky enough to visit, we at Flexicover are committed to providing you the highest level of protection to ensure that you are safe and secure, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year when away.

Concourse allows for the [parameterization of pipelines](https://concourse-ci.org/fly-set-pipeline.html#parameters)
when you `fly` them but it will store the pipeline and the secrets in the
database as one single encrypted field.

This might work in some environments but if you need to create an extra layer
of security, (i.e., for compliance reasons and/or for better security practices)
you need to be able to obfuscate these secrets from the Concourse pipeline.

That is the reason why the Concourse team created a [Credential Management](https://concourse-ci.org/creds.html)
integration. Its first implementation is an integration with [Vault](https://www.vaultproject.io/)
and this README will outline how to get started.

There is an often overlooked aspect of distributed systems security
where Concourse and Vault can help. Credential rotation is crucial to keeping
systems secure and we can use these tools to remove human intervention and
automate the rotation of credentials.

### Getting Started

#### Requirements:
- [Concourse](http://concourse-ci.org/installing.html) - We are assuming it is BOSH
installed in this post but it is not required.
- [Vault](https://github.com/cloudfoundry-community/vault-boshrelease)

These instructions assume that you already have a Vault server up and running.
For more information, refer to
[Vault's installation documentation](https://www.vaultproject.io/docs/install/index.html)
or the [Vault Bosh release](https://github.com/cloudfoundry-community/vault-boshrelease)
and this [sample deployment file](https://github.com/rahul-kj/concourse-vault/blob/master/vault.yml).

### Create a Vault read-only token for Concourse

We will need a read-only token for Concourse so it can access the Vault secret.
First, we have to create the Vault policy:

1. Login to Vault:
  `vault auth <token>`
1. Create a mount in value for use by Concourse pipelines
  `vault mount -path=/concourse -description="Secrets for concourse pipelines" generic`
1. Create a file with the policy
(e.g. [`policy.hcl`](https://github.com/rahul-kj/concourse-vault/blob/master/vault-policy.hcl)):
    ```concourse.hcl
    # concourse.hcl
    path "/concourse/*" {
      policy = "read"
      capabilities = ["read", "list"]
    }
    ```
1. Upload the policy to Vault:
  ` $ vault write sys/policy/concourse rules=@concourse.hcl `
1. Create a periodic token:
  ` $ vault token-create -period="2h" -orphan -policy=concourse`

Store the token since we will use it in the Concourse manifest.

### Connect Concourse to Vault

Setting up Concourse to use Vault for credential management is very
straightforward given the new integration. You just have to pass in some
parameters in the Concourse manifest to enable the communication. Here is an
example:

```
- ...
  instances: 1
  jobs:
  - name: atc
    properties:
      ...
      vault:
        path_prefix: /concourse
        auth:
          client_token: <TOKEN FROM PREVIOUS STEP>
        tls:
          ca_cert:
            certificate: |-
              -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
              <VAULT CA CERTIFICATE>
              -----END CERTIFICATE-----
        url: <VAULT URL/IP>
    release: concourse
 ```

[Click here](https://github.com/rahul-kj/concourse-vault/blob/master/concourse.yml)
for an example of a complete Concourse deployment manifest with Vault integration.

For a complete list of Vault integration parameters for the `atc` job, please
consult the [ATC job's documentation](https://bosh.io/jobs/atc?source=github.com/concourse/concourse#p=vault).

Once you add this section to the manifest Concourse should now be able to read
from Vault.

### How to use it
To use Vault secrets in Concourse pipelines you have to parametrize your
pipeline with parentheses `(())` instead of curly brackets `{{}}`. Concourse
currently supports only one credential management system at a time with one
set of credentials, so if you specify a parameter, it will look it up in the
instance you linked Concourse to.

There are two formats that Concourse will look to find a credential. Concourse
will first look for pipeline scoped variables at
`/concourse/<team-name>/<pipeline-name>/<variable-name>`,
if this doesn't exist then it will look for team scoped variables at
`/concourse/<team-name>/<variable-name>`. This is useful when you want to share
credentials across multiple pipelines e.g keys, tokens, etc.

Not everything in a pipeline can be parametrized, you can read more about what
can be parametrized in the [Concourse docs](http://concourse-ci.org/creds.html#what-can-be-parameterized).
Basically you can pull secrets in `source` or `params` sections of a pipeline.

Here is an example:
Let's say we have a pipeline that deploys an application to  Pivotal Cloud
Foundry. You will need a resource that has the credentials to be able to push
the app. This is what it would look like:
```
resources:
- name: resource-deploy-web-app
  type: cf
  source:
    api: https://api.run.pivotal.io
    username: ((cf_username))
    password: ((cf_password))
    organization: ((cf_organization))
    space: ((cf_space))
    skip_cert_check: false
```

If we set the pipeline on the team `main` with the name `deploy-app`.
Concourse will look in Vault for `/concourse/main/deploy-app/cf_username`
first and `/concourse/main/cf_username` second.

### How to rotate credentials

Vault doesn't currently support random credential generation or versioning of
secrets. Because of that, we have to be careful when writing new secrets to Vault.

If the secret that we are writing to Vault is not the currently valid one we
will lose track of it.

To rotate credentials:

- Create a new random secret
- Store it into Vault with a suffix (like: `/concourse/main/cf_password_new`)
- Change the secret in the service (in this case run `cf passwd`)
- Store it into Vault again with the full name (`/concourse/main/cf_password`)

This way you can rotate credentials without having to worry about all the
places you have to change it. Once it is stored in Vault all other services
should be able to reference it from that point forward.
**Concourse will not require to be notified about this change, it will just
use the latest secret from Vault**.

News | Washington Football Team - WashingtonFootball.com
Chris Thompson Ready To Return To Field
Stephen Czarda
Missing the last two games with a shoulder injury, Chris Thompson has been a little more intense this week as he desperately wants to get back on the field vs. the Eagles.
Chris Thompson is ready to let his frustration out on the football field.
As the Washington Redskins got back to work Wednesday in preparation for Saturday night's NFC East clash with the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field, Thompson stood out in drills that have become relatively routine over the last few months.
As running backs coach Randy Jordan lined up the running backs and fullback Darrel Young for blocking drills, Thompson, who stands at just 5-foot-8 and weighs less than 200 pounds, had the biggest blocks of the session, pushing back pads held by Pierre Thomas and Matt Jones with authority.
After being sidelined for two weeks with a shoulder injury, Thompson wants to get back to a place he's comfortable being in.
"Yeah, I'm ready to get back out there," Thompson told Redskins.com. "It's been a tough few weeks for me, and just being out on the field is my way of getting away from life. Yesterday, I was pretty emotional as you could tell on the sideline."
Indeed, Thompson is desperate to get back on the field, not only to show that he can still be a key contributor, but also to help the Redskins get back to the playoffs for the first time since the 2012 season, a year before the Redskins took him in the fifth round of the 2013 NFL Draft.
"This is what I've been waiting for," Thompson said. "I think that's another reason why my intensity has picked up a whole lot as of late, besides frustration. But I just want to make sure I can do everything week in, week out from this point on to help us have success."
Thompson was limited in practice through most of last week before the decision to keep him inactive was made on Sunday.
Top 10 Of 2014: Chris Thompson
A countdown of the Top 10 images of Redskins running back Chris Thompson during the 2014 season.
This week he was a full participant in both practices, though.
"I feel good, man," said Thompson, who has been and will continue to wear a harness over his shoulder for the rest of the season. "I feel confident about the shoulder being a couple of weeks out now. Basically I'm just waiting on them to make the call at this point."
Veteran advice
Brought in to be an emergency man for the injured Thompson, nine-year veteran Pierre Thomas has been nothing but supportive for the 25-year-old.
"I've just been picking his ear about certain stuff," Thompson said. "He'll be watching me run certain routes, and then just give me tips on the side on what I can do here and there. I think this is Year 9 for him, so whatever he did up until this point worked. So I'm just trying to get any advice from him while I can with him. He's been doing a great job just being a teammate and being one of those veteran guys that's coming in and just wants to help in any way possible. No attitude, no getting upset just not knowing week in and week out who's going to be playing. He's just come in and helped us all out."
Thomas, meanwhile, thinks that Thompson, even from the little he's seen from him over the last two weeks, can be "a dangerous player in this league."
"He still has a little bit more to learn, this is his third year in the league, but I feel like he has a great grasp," Thomas said. "Being part of a team with some of the guys who was great at cutting and doing those things like Reggie Bush and Darren Sproles – I see that in him. I see that type of game. He has his own style, but he still has that quickness, that agility, that movement just like those dudes. If I see something that I used to see from Reggie or Sproles, I tell him I say, 'Hey, this is what these guys used to do, and you kind of remind me of them, but try looking at it this way and doing it this way and see how it works for yourself.' He's listening and he's doing his thing and he's helping me out also. He's going to be a great player in this league and I see it out of him."

Pratts was a department store located in Streatham High Road, London. Established in the 1850s it became part of the John Lewis chain before its closure in 1990.

Early history
George Pratt arrived in Streatham from Silchester at the age of 13 to start an apprenticeship in the drapery trade with William Reynolds in Bedford Row on Streatham High Road. Within eleven years Pratt had purchased the business and was the sole owner, but Streatham was only a sleepy village with a population of 7000. The Railways arrived in 1856 and within 50 years the population had grown to 71,000.

With the growth of Streatham, George purchased two shops on the opposite side of the High Road which he called Eldon House. This was the start of great expansion with his sons Henry and Charles joining the business and the store expanding into neighbouring shop premises.
The original shops on Bedford Row were retained by the family where men's and boys' outfitting departments were later established.

In 1912 the business was incorporated and the store at Eldon House continued to expand. Pratts Ltd diversified to offer a greater range of products which included a funeral service. Pratts was acquired by Brixton department store Bon Marche for £90,000 in 1919.

The Bon Marche group of three department stores, including Pratts, was bought by the Selfridge Provincial Stores group in 1926. Under Selfridge control the store was further extended and advertising and special promotions were carried out on a regular basis. Fourteen years later, however, the Provincial Stores group collapsed and was purchased by the expanding John Lewis Partnership in 1940.

Under John Lewis
Although World War II had started and there were difficulties in purchasing the necessary goods for a store to survive, Pratts grew during the war. They closed a staff hostel that had occupied part of the store to increase the selling space available. Pratts was not damaged during The Blitz on London, and put itself at the forefront of community funding initiatives to help the war effort.

After the war the business continued to grow and space for expansion became a recurring problem. The largest part of the building did not extend above the ground floor. Restrictions to development at the original site prompted the move of several departments out of the main store for a number of years.

Initiatives to increase space in the main building included the 1973 purchase of houses in Ockley Road into which the store could be extended. Planning permission was refused, however, until 1985. By this time the Partnership was developing a vision for its future into which the Pratts business was becoming a poor strategic fit.  The store remained a profitable branch of the Partnership right up until closure on 28 July 1990. Most of the 400 partners working at the store were redeployed to other John Lewis stores.

The building itself was demolished in 1996, and was replaced by retail units occupied by Argos, Lidl and Peacocks.

In popular culture

Captain Darling, Blackadder's nemesis in the final Series of Blackadder worked at Pratts before the first War. "Rather hoped I'd get through the whole show. Go back to work at Pratt and Sons, keep wicket for the Croydon Gentlemen, marry Doris..."
As did Shirley Ambrose in Desmonds as a seamstress though this time as Pratt Pratt and Malloy of Streatham.

Lā Kūʻokoʻa Hawaiian Independence Day, was commemorated on the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa campus on November 28 with a number of events. On the same day in 1843, Great Britain and France signed a proclamation recognizing the independence and sovereignty of the Hawaiian nation.
To mark the 175th anniversary, the morning started with a ceremonial event at an ahu (Hawaiian shrine) on the Mānoa campus led by Hale Mua o Kūaliʻi on behalf of Hawaiʻinuiākea School of Hawaiian Knowledge Dean Jonathan Osorio and PhD student Kalaniākea Wilson. The gathering of Hawaiian leaders conducted an ʻawa (Hawaiian kava drink) ceremony near Bachman Hall to recognize the kūpuna who built the ahu and to remember their wise instructions in moving forward.
The sacred ahu near Bachman.
A shirt screen-printing activity was held at mid-day in the Campus Center courtyard by Native Hawaiian Student Services titled, "What does Ea mean to you?" Ea has multiple meanings, including sovereignty, rule, independence, life, air, breath and to rise.
The final Lā Kūʻokoʻa event at the Hemenway Hall courtyard was a panel discussion on ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi featuring noted Hawaiian educators Kaliko Baker, Kahikina de Silva and Keʻalaanuhea Ah Mook Sang, along with music and performances.


The focus of our presence at this year's LIMA event is our partnership commitment to Malaysia, with Typhoon performance and capabilities taking centre stage on the Eurofighter GmbH stand.
Following LIMA, a number of 1 Squadron Typhoons will be based at Butterworth Air Base and will take part in bi-lateral training exercises with the Royal Malaysian Air Force front-line squadrons. The joint exercise gives the air forces an opportunity to work together through a series of air exercises designed to explore the capabilities of respective aircraft types in different scenarios.


US plus-size model Tess Holliday is the star of Cosmopolitan UK's latest issue. The cover has been praised as a win for body positivity, not only because a "visibly fat woman" is on the front of a major fashion magazine, but because it has also given an OG curve-acceptance warrior a bigger platform to share her much-needed message.
And though this is probably one of the biggest accomplishments of her career, there's much more to Tess than her weight and body. And since that's exactly the message she's trying to spread, here are 10 things your probably didn't know about latest Cosmo girl, Tess Holliday!

NEW YORK, NY.- On Thursday night, over 2,500 fair-goers attended the opening day of the 27th edition of the Outsider Art Fair, the only fair dedicated to Self-Taught Art, Art Brut and Outsider Art from around the world.
Guests representing the art, culture, fashion, and entertainment milieu attended an early preview held at the The Metropolitan Pavilion, located at 125 West 18th Street in New York City, including Actresses Edie Falco, Jessica Lange, Elizabeth Marvel, and Susan Sarandon; Musicians Jack Antonoff, Lee Ranaldo, Andy Rourke; Artists Maurizio Cattelan, Hugo Guinness, and Peter McGough; Curators Jason Busch, Matthew Higgs, Jeanne Greenberg, Anne Pasternak, Valérie Rousseau, Stephanie Stebich, and Max Hollein; Collectors Monty Blanchard & Leslie Tcheyan, Michael & Eileen Cohen, Marty & Rebecca Eisenberg, Agnes Gund, and Jacqueline Schnabel.
"We are thrilled with the turnout. Our booth has gotten lovely reaction," said Susan Baerwald of Just Folk, who sold two artworks by outsider art staple Bill Traylor with an estimated value of $85-100,000 each. "We've had a very successful opening," she concluded. "I never thought I would be here, and I thank the fair immensely for giving me this incredibly opportunity," said first-time exhibitor Michelle Maccarone, who presented the work of Jim Carrey. The response has been overwhelmingly positive toward Jim's work, and the context could not be more perfect. This is a fair that is really about art."
Highlights this year are two hallmark OAF Curated Spaces, including Good Kids: Underground Comics from China, featuring zines and original drawings created by Chinese artists, co-organized by Brett Littman (Director, Noguchi Museum, New York) and Yi Zhou (partner and curator of C5Art Gallery, Beijing); and a second exhibition serving as an homage to the late dealer Phyllis Kind, curated by art critic Edward M. Gómez. In her obituary for the New York Times, Roberta Smith made this observation: "As the first American dealer to show outsider art alongside that of contemporary artists, Ms. Kind was in many ways as important as Leo Castelli…"
Additional guests included:

Founded in New York in 1993, the Outsider Art Fair is the original art fair concentrating specifically on self-taught art, and exhibits works by acknowledged masters, including James Castle, Aloïse Corbaz, Henry Darger, Thornton Dial, William Edmondson, Martín Ramírez, Judith Scott, Bill Traylor and Adolf Wölfli, as well as contemporary figures like M'onma, Susan Te Kahurangi King, Frank Walter and George Widener. Quickly recognized for its maverick spirit, OAF played a vital role in building a passionate collecting community and broader recognition for outsider art in the contemporary art arena.
In 2012, OAF was acquired by Wide Open Arts, a company formed by gallerist Andrew Edlin. With its debut edition in 2013, the fair established the Curated Space and OAF Talks programs. The 2013 fair enjoyed rave reviews and more than tripled its previous attendance records. Propelled by this success, Wide Open Arts took the fair to Paris where it recently produced its 6th edition, helping to reinvigorate the city's long tradition of recognizing and championing art brut and self-taught artists.

This Saturday, I'm stuck at home nursing an annoying cold that refuses to go away. Deadlines at work are creeping up on me but I seriously can't think straight with all this fog clouding my judgement. So I've decided to edit a draft blog post that I did long ago, which has become relevant again since I've gone back to work.
The office starts buzzing at around 9-ish, colleagues file in one after the other with chirpy morning greetings and sometimes even with breakfast to share. It takes a good half an hour before anyone settles down to actual work.
So I come in an hour before every morning. When the office is all quiet, leisurely enjoy a cup of coffee and almost immediately attend to emails that filed in the night before. When I'm done with that, I take some time to plan what has to be done for that day and what can be done another time.
The quiet makes for better productivity and the planning gives me a better grasp of how time ought to be managed for the day. This ensures clarity even when last minute changes happen, that leads me to point #2.
When we don't and they happen anyway, we often find ourselves frustrated and annoyed. This just slows us down even further. Instead, we can expect to be disturbed in the course of every work day. New projects come in. Or the boss wants something done immediately. A colleague needs help urgently etc.
This might be unconventional, but whilst planning my work day I also include buffer times for diversions. On good days when there are none, I simply get more work done earlier!
Working at the desk all day not only slows your productivity, it's even bad for your general health! Stiff neck and sore back? That must be due to long hours in the same position day in day out.
As mentioned earlier, I usually plan my work day. This I do in blocks of tasks. Perhaps preparing proposals, followed by making some phone calls and then writing up curriculum etc. After a block is completed, I intentionally move. If the desk of another colleague is vacant, I migrate there for the next block or sit myself by the window for a bit with some cushions to prop up my laptop. If it's a crowded day at the office, I simply turn over an empty paper box and create a standing desk. Very effective for food coma attacks after lunch.
I'm not quite sure why no one else does. The internet raves about it, books and professionals affirm the practice. Many other Southeast Asian countries have a set time for siesta every afternoon... Yet we don't do it, even though it's meant to increase our productivity.
In the past, I used to sleep immediately after lunch. But that often made it impossible to wake up. Now, I discipline myself to work for another two hours before taking that nap. This I do for half and hour, obviously with the help of an alarm.
The point is, forcing yourself to work when you're extremely sleepy is really counter-productive. So if you want to increase your efficiency at work, take a nap!
Yes there will be days you will have to work until the building security asks you to leave. But on other days, if you can help it, avoid bringing work home. That's the biggest cause of the imbalance. The moment work is brought home, you lose the solace and the peace that home brings you. Home is where your mindset can shift to family, to rest and to generally more relaxing things. While I do love my work, I also treasure the work-less hours we can enjoy reading, doing sports or simply having conversation with friends.
Even if you work from home, like I did awhile back, there's still a need for the discipline to keep work to one space and time. Yes! It takes a lot of discipline to actually stop working.
No matter what it might be. Even if you're about to move on to another job soon, try and enjoy your job now. After all it's where we spend more than half our waking hours at it. If you were to hate your job for whatever reason at all, you're only making yourself miserable. Find something, anything at all to love about your job and perhaps that will change every thing about this work-life imbalance.
Are they parts of my job that I hate? Certainly. I absolutely hate admin tasks. My solution is to slip them into blocks of bigger tasks, so while they get done, I don't spend hours at the end of each month dealing with them.
What I do love about my job though is plenty. Meeting teachers and training students. Brainstorming with like-minded colleagues. Creating new curriculum, designing and testing out new games and activities. That helps me look forward to work, even when we're in a crazy busy period, keeping my mind on the tasks that I love makes work so much easier.

Health Tip: Being a Cancer Caregiver
(HealthDay News) -- Helping to care for a person with cancer may involve issues ranging from understanding medication side effects and communicating with family to providing information to a patient's doctor to help determine if a treatment is working.
The American Cancer Society offers this advice for cancer caregivers, recognizing they may feel overworked and under-appreciated:
Always respect your feelings and those of the patient.
Use "I" statements, rather than "you" statements. For instance, say, "I need a break" instead of "You never help me!"
Focus on the present rather than bringing up past patterns or issues.
Offer comforting assertions, such as: "I want to be here for you to help you get through this. You're not alone."

Frost & Sullivan bestowed the 2014 "Data Analysis Platforms" Award to FORMCEPT Technologies & Solutions ("FORMCEPT") in the New Product Innovation Leadership category. The Award was presented to Mr. Suresh Srinivasan and Anuj Kumar, Founders, FORMCEPT at Frost & Sullivan's annual Growth, Innovation and Leadership Executive Congress (GIL 2014: India) at the Taj Hotel in Mumbai on 23rd September, 2014.
Organizations across the globe operate with distributed information sources. With a diverse range of repositories, various data types, and discreet external sources of data, enterprises are finding it difficult to derive business intelligence. In order to address these issues, FORMCEPT provides a Unified Data Analysis platform that is capable of processing data more effectively and helps to reduce the development time of cognitive data-driven applications for customers. FORMCEPT's solution has the potential to reduce time, and over 80 percent of cost organizations spend on the pre-processing stage of data before actually leveraging the benefits of application analytics.
Frost & Sullivan evaluated the key challenges in a majority of data-driven applications available in the market for enterprises and identified major solution providers in the Indian market. Analyzing the innovations from each shortlisted nomination and based on ratings for the above mentioned criteria and sub-criteria, Frost & Sullivan presented this prestigious award to FORMCEPT Technologies & Solutions, for its cutting-edge solution.
Lack of capability to unify various data sets often transfers unidentified data into the "dark data" repositories of an organization. This creates a huge gap in analysis as no insights can be derived from those stored data sets through the analytics application layer. Having identified the lack of a pre-processing stage in conventional data analysis platforms, FORMCEPT has uniquely positioned its hardware independent solution as one that unifies data sources through its Unified Data Analysis platform, which significantly reduce deployment cost and time for its end users.
FORMCEPT is a Unified Data Analysis platform that helps Enterprises to get actionable insights from their data faster, thereby, significantly reducing the time taken to convert data into decisions. The platform not only reduces your entire data pre-processing time, but also help you derive insights faster using the pre-packaged processing and predictive models for textual and statistical data analysis.
FORMCEPT provides a unified interface for storing and querying datasets which supports batch processing, stream processing and interactive analysis out of the box. It is built on top of NoSQL technologies, like- HDFS, HBase for storage, systems like Map-Reduce, Spark, Shark and Storm for data processing and utilizes the power of graph database, key-value store and index store to provide a seamless experience for the end users. Customers can kick-start their "Big Data" Applications using APIs without worrying about the underlying complexity.

Michael Anthony Studios is an international award winning wedding photography studio based in Los Angeles, California. Their love for wedding photography has allowed them to create a brand that is art-focused, blending traditional photography, creative photojournalism, and modern fashion influenced portraiture. Michael is an active photography industry educator. He is a current contributor to Shutter Magazine, the leading industry magazine for photographers. Michael teaches hundreds of photographers a year at international photography conventions, and has served as a judge on national image competition panels.
Michael Anthony is on the show today and he has some great tips for marketing with Instagram, selling and creating wedding websites and turning inquiries into booked clients.
While the ability to advertise for free on Facebook is long gone, you can still reach your audience on Instagram for free by using hashtags. There are a few ways to do this.
The first is to create a hashtag or hashtags that are unique to your business and use it/them consistently. It's also beneficial to identify and use the popular, relevant hashtags that are already exist in your area.
Second, you need to interact with the people who are following you and also with people whose work you like and people you'd like to work with. It's not enough to just post pretty pictures, you have to be an active member of the community if you want to build your following and reach clients. Start liking and commenting on the photos that local vendors share.
The third strategy is one of our favorites. Most couples create a unique hashtag for their event. Make sure you know what it is and use it! At weddings, during dinner, Michael has started uploading ten images from the day directly from his Sony A9 to Instagram and using the wedding hashtag. He also tags vendors from the event who are likely to give him a referral (the event planner, venue and gown shop are always included because they are three vendors who will typically meet with the couple before they choose a photographer). The first time he did this, he booked a wedding, a portrait session and a family session with people who saw the images!
Michael has been using the wedding website template that is included with the StickyFolios platform to create branded wedding websites for his clients. The sites are included in his top engagement and wedding collections and often push people to purchase these collections. Michael notes that it's very important to show people the site. If you just tell them about, they are likely to think that it's something they can do themselves. They need to see the design and experience the features, to understand it and when they understand it, they will want it. The benefits of creating wedding websites for clients goes way beyond the initial sale. Every person who visits the site is a potential client who is seeing your work, your branding and the level of service that you provide.
Every inquiry that Michael receives is automatically subscribed to a DRIP campaign that sends our emails regularly for two weeks. Every few days, the person gets a helpful email related to planning a wedding. There are also follow up sales emails to check their interest. The third follow up email says something like, "We haven't heard back from you and we're wondering if you are still interested in our services. If you're not, do we have permission to close your file." According to Michael, the response is about 50/50. The people who are interested come in for a consult. Once they come in, Michael's booking rate goes up to over 90%. As in incentive to book at the consult, Michael offers a printed, $300 gift card that can be used towards the purchase of an art collection after the wedding.
There's so much more than what's outlined here in this chat so be sure to tune in and hear it all!
If you enjoyed today's show, check out Michael's website for photographers. In addition to in person workshops he has a number of resources available to photographers, including post production tools and e-mail templates. If you sign up for his mailing list you will receive his Dodge & Burn action for free!
