Inclement Weather Policy >>
Closure of St. Mary's Ecumenical Institute (inclement weather policy 1/11/16)
Daytime. If St. Mary's Seminary & University is closed for inclement weather this inherently includes Saint Mary's Ecumenical Institute and Knott Library. Such decisions are typically made in the early morning, and are communicated by St. Mary's Ecumenical Institute (EI) as outlined below. If St. Mary's is closed, non-residents are not allowed on the premises.
Evening and weekend. Closing the EI in the evening or on a weekend is the decision of the EI Dean, typically made by 4 p.m. for weeknights, and by 7 a.m. on Saturdays. If St. Mary's is closed, non-residents are not allowed on the premises.
Closure vs. cancellation. If the EI closes because of weather, we hope that the class will 'meet online' using Canvas (the EI learning management system which has options for fully synchronous audio-visual class meetings), allowing students to go home and participate virtually in the class session. Instructors are to investigate this possibility in the first week of school, and to inform students thereafter whether a school closure means the class meeting occurs online. Such sessions would be recorded for anyone who is unable to participate.
Communication. The EI communicates closures with an announcement on the Website and on Saint Mary's voicemail (410.864.4000). A red alert box appears on all St. Mary's Seminary & University and St. Mary's Ecumenical Institute webpages (see the image below) with specific information.
Student expectation. A student should expect 1) to be able to learn about any school closure via our website and telephone a minimum of two hours before class begins; and 2) to know in advance of school closure whether his/her class plans to convene online, or make up the session at a later date.
Founded in 1791, St. Mary's Seminary & University is the first Catholic seminary established in the United States. For over two hundred years, St. Mary's has been owned and operated by the Sulpician Fathers, a community of diocesan priests dedicated to the formation of priests.

Apartments in Split
Mediterranean apartments and cottages with sea view
Along the Adriatic coast, holidaymakers will find exactly the apartment or vacation rental that suits their preferences. The choice of accommodation with a cosy atmosphere or spacious spaciousness extends on the mainland north of the Marjan peninsula. The wonderful coastal towns Katel Stari, Katel Gomilica and Katel Sucurac run south of the coastal road Ivana Pavla II. The entire south of Split also offers you a direct sea location in your apartment. Starting in the south-western parts of Marjan and Meje, nature of the wooded peninsula and the marina ACI Marina meet. Other parts of Split on the Adriatic coast are Poljud, Lovred or Bacvice, which run southeast. In the extreme southeast of the peninsula, the small holiday resort of Stobrec is very popular with bathers.
Fantastic apartments in the whole harbour town
In addition to the promenades, holidaymakers can also move into a holiday apartment in the old town. The historical centre includes the districts of Grad and Varos, which are convincing due to their central location. To the north of the city centre lies the suburban district of Dobri. In Mejai, the largest district in the east of the city, travellers find a green, idyllic residential area where young families in particular live. In the vicinity of your vacation rental there are ideal transport connections and shopping facilities such as the largest shopping centre in the city "Mall of Split".
Holidays in Split
A true beauty on the Adriatic coast
In the southeast of Croatia, the country's second largest city stretches directly along the Adriatic coast. Split is unofficially called the capital of Dalmatia. The medieval port town is surrounded by sea water due to its location on the splinter peninsula Marjan in the north, west and south. The historical city is characterized by its architecture, its location on the Adriatic Sea and the adjacent Mosor, Kozyak and Marjan mountains. Split has about 167,000 inhabitants.
A successful journey
The majority of holidaymakers arrive comfortably by plane. Split-Katela airport is located between Trogir and Katela. The distance to Split's city center is 25 kilometers. Travellers can use a rental car or bus transfer at the airport. The PlesoPrijevoz bus lines regularly depart from the airport building to the centre of Split, where the main railway station and connecting buses are also located. The ferry port is the direct connection to Ancona in Italy.
Split for families
Split is a fabulous destination for families. The beautiful pebble beaches of Bacvice and Kasuni in the south of the town have a high water quality and the water falls gently. This offers ideal conditions for bathing fun, even for small holidaymakers. From your apartment you will find leisure activities for children all over the city. These include playgrounds, the Magic City or the children's jungle. On Marjan Mountain there is an adventurous climbing playground and the city's zoo.
Split for water sports enthusiasts
The direct location at the Adriatic Sea gives holidaymakers a paradise of water sports activities. If you would like to get to know the Croatian underwater world, you can book diving and snorkelling trips on the beaches of the town. Fishing, sailing and kayaking are very popular with holidaymakers. If you like it faster, you can join spectacular rafting groups.
Split for hikers
Split has a number of hiking trails that offer a dreamlike backdrop through the nearby mountain ranges and the coast. Very popular is the hike through the Marjan Park. Past pine trees and 400 plant species you climb the 180-metre-high panoramic mountain. From here you have a spectacular view over the whole harbour. Between Split and the small town of Omis runs the Mosor mountain range with overwhelming grottos and caves to explore.
The ancient Diocletian's palace
In the middle of the old town lies the magnificent Diocletian Palace. It was built from a complex of buildings that combined an elegant summer residence and a military camp and is today one of the best-preserved architectures in Roman history. It is unusual that the imperial palace is divided by two streets (Decumanus and Cardo). The imposing complex is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Ivan Mestrovic Gallery
South of Marjan Park, the art museum in honour of Ivan Mestrovic, an important sculptor of the 20th century, opens daily. Over two floors and the sculpture park outside the building, the collection now contains sculptures, paintings, drawings and architectural plans. The exhibits are made of bronze, marble or wood and are valuable objects of culture in Split.
Unforgettable boat trips
Croatia is an island paradise and Split is the starting point for boat trips to the most beautiful places of the country. Crystal clear water, beautiful bays and beautiful vineyards await holidaymakers on the islands of Pakleni and Hvar. Another highlight is a visit to the blue grotto on the island of Bisevo.

"I sat still for about five minutes and then my pipe got too hot. I put it down, looked at my strap watch, and got up to switch on a small radio in the corner beyond the end of the desk. When the A.C. hum died down, the last tinkle of a chime came out of the horn, then a voice was saying..."
by The New York Dolls, 1974.
The first time I heard "Bony Maronie," it was not by Larry Williams, but by Johnny Winters and I was in my early teens, stoned, and trying to learn the riff on guitar in my friends basement. The first time I heard "Hattie Malattie" by Lee Diamond, I was sure it was some record company guy at Vee-Jay trying to come up with a "Bony Maronie" type of thing to get a hit. I wasn't stoned, but I was wrong. It does bear a resemblance to "Bony Maronie," but it turns out Lee Diamond is actually Wilbert Smith, part of Little Richard's tenor section in The Upsetters, and Lee Diamond's band is The Upsetters lumbering on after Little Richard gave up Rock and Roll and joined the ministry with Lee/Wilbert stepping up to the microphone. It's a pretty great record, as is the b-side "Mama Loochie." Both songs have unusual introductions that never reappear in the song. Wilbert can also be heard on "Why Do You Do Me" the b-side of James Brown's first Federal single, "Please, Please, Please" and on some of Little Richard's best Specialty sides, including the insane sonic attack of "Ooh!, My Soul."

Here's a rocking record from The Ray-O-Vacs. I bought this record because I liked their name. Who wouldn't? I was not disappointed. Alright, that's my story and I'm gonna stick to it.
At the end of "See You Later, Allen Ginsberg," you can hear Bob Dylan start to say, "Let's erase..." (that!) or something to that effect. This track has most of what's great about the lighter tracks on the The Basement Tapes: humor, spontaneity, cannabis, and illicitness (it is a bootleg) and maybe we shouldn't be listening to it, or maybe it should have been erased as Dylan starts to suggest. Thankfully, it was not.
A few years later, Dylan heard Ginsberg at a reading, improvising poetry to some music and called him to talk about it. A week later they were in the studio recording with an assembled cast of characters including Anne Waldman and Happy Traum. They recorded several tracks for what eventually became Ginsberg's record First Blues, including "Put Your Money Down," which is the traditional sea shanty "Pay Me Your Money Down" and "For You, Oh Babe For You," which to my ears sounds more like late period Velvet Underground than anything else.
So, with that in mind I've assembled a sprawling little playlist here, that follows a tagent beginning with Dylan and moving on to some live Velvets from 1969; The Modern Lovers, who used to the Velvets' sound as a starting point; Wilco who nailed it on at least one track and another performance of Ginsberg from 1982 with The Clash.

A few months ago, I bought this record on eBay. I purchased it because it was cheap and on the Ace record label, and 90% of those records are great, including the one for which this blog is named. I had no idea who Mercy Baby was and neither did the guy who sold it to me. He listed it as Mercy Dee in parentheses and I didn't know much about him either, except as a passing name when browsing for records.
After I won the auction, I did a little web research on Mercy Dee, whose record I thought I had just bought and made a startling discovery. Years ago, my friend, roommate, and cohort from art school Bruce Silcox, with whom I spent many hours listening to and playing music with gave me a cassette tape he made (at the library I think) with no track listing of a Texas Blues compilation labeled only "'dis be it blues." He excitedly played me an hysterically funny song called "Eighth Wonder of the World" in which a guy runs through a list of bad strategies for testing his woman's love, I've had this tape for over 20 years and had no idea who it was. More than once, I spent a considerable amount of time fishing around the web and trying to figure it out to no avail.
So, while looking at track listings of Mercy Dee records on Amazon to find out what the record I just bought sounded like - that wasn't Mercy Dee after all - I came across "Eighth Wonder of the World," and listened to a sound sample to find out what I'd been trying to figure out for all these years.
Below, we have the record I bought, which is fantastic by the way, featuring Frankie Lee Sims on guitar backing up Mercy Baby (AKA Jimmy Mullins). Mullins, like Mercy Dee Walton is a Texas blues piano player. On the A-side "Silly Dilly Woman," I'm not sure, but I think he refers to his woman as a "hole" or maybe it's the more common "ho." You tell me - I'm not sure. Either way, in my experience, this has proven to be as ineffective as the strategies illustrated in Mercy Dee's composition. Rhythmically it bears some resemblance to Rosco Gordon's shuffling proto-calypso rock. Also check out the way the drummer throws the accents during the saxophone solo. Frankie Lee cuts loose on the b-side.
Also, we get Mercy Dee doing "Eight Wonder" and his most famous composition, "One Room Country Shack," as well as a cover of it by Mose Allison, who was a fan of Mercy Dee and included it on his first record Back Country Suite.
Additionally a song that uses mercy as an exclamation of love, and a pair of songs begging for mercy in love and in life.
by Mercy Dee Walton, 1953.

Well, the Boogie Woogie Flu was launched a year ago today. After a year in Fluville, I find it fitting to once again listen to Elvis, being that it is his birthday today as well, and while he never made it to seventy-three, I really never planned for this blog to make it to one - but responsibility calls so we'll pay tribute to the King, and listen to James Burton and the TCB band backing up the big E.
In 1951, Billie Holiday recorded one session for Aladdin Records with tenor guitarist Tiny Grimes leading the band. Haywood Henry is on saxophone and Bobby Tucker on piano. These four sides (in particular "Rocky Mountain Blues" - in which she sings "I'll be high on that mountain" which for her had a dual meaning) are the closest she came to recording Rhythm and Blues. They are unmistakably her- yet different than anything else she recorded.
by Billie Holiday with Tiny Grimes' Sextet, 1951.

Islanders celebrate Treaty Day
Darlene Bernard, chief of Lennox Island First Nation, Premier Dennis King and Junior Gould, Chief of Abegweit First Nation
Celebrating Treaty Day is another step forward to advancing reconciliation with First Nations. Recognizing this special day affirms government's commitment to working closely with and for the wellbeing of the PEI Mi'kmaq.
Treaty Day is a celebration of the historical relationships between Indigenous peoples and the Government of Canada. It is also a day that gives Canadians and Islanders the opportunity to learn more about the culture, history and heritage of Indigenous peoples.
"The commitment to officially recognize Mi'kmaq Treaty Day in Prince Edward Island is a significant gesture and signals the commitment of Premier King and this government to a strong relationship with the PEI Mi'kmaq," said Darlene Bernard, chief of Lennox Island First Nation on PEI. "Treaty Day serves as an important symbolic event to both strengthen the relationship between the Mi'kmaq of PEI and the Crown and to educate the public about the Mi'kmaq Treaties, as well as Mi'kmaq History and Culture – all important steps on the path to reconciliation."
"We are proud that the PEI government has now joined Nova Scotia in the official recognition of Treaty Day and we are looking forward to working in collaboration to celebrate this day every year and to use this event to promote awareness with all Islanders of Mi'kmaq history, culture and heritage in PEI," said Junior Gould, Chief of Abegweit First Nation. "This is an important day for the Mi'kmaq of Epekwitk, and for all Islanders."
Abegweit and Lennox Island First Nations represent the two bands of Prince Edward Island. Chiefs Bernard and Gould joined Premier Dennis King to raise the Mi'kmaq national flag at the provincial government offices. The flag will also be flown at Government House for the month of October in recognition of Treaty Day.
"The First Nations of Prince Edward Island have made, and continue to make, important contributions to what makes our province an incredible place. Our relationship with the Mi'kmaq is strong and one that is founded on mutual respect. Today is a significant step forward in advancing the important work of reconciliation. Together, we can and will make a real difference in the lives the PEI Mi'kmaq."

History of England: From the Peace of Utrecht to the Peace of ..., Volume 6
By Earl Philip Henry Stanhope Stanhope
the revenue was very little sunk, and the supplies for the current year would be raised with perfect ease. But he rather indulged the hope that the large concessions which he was now prepared to make would render needless the loyal exertions of the people, and avert any fresh appeal to arms.
The Minister then proceeded to state that there were two Bills which he had ready, and asked leave to bring in. The first was entitled "For removing all Doubts and "Apprehensions concerning Taxation by the Parliament "of Great Britain in any of the Colonies." It repealed, expressly and by name, the tea-duty in America; and as to the future it declared, "That from and after the passing "of this Act, the King and Parliament of Great Britain "will not impose any duty, tax, or assessment whatever "in any of His Majesty's (American) Colonies, except "only such duties as it may be expedient to impose for "the regulation of commerce, the net produce of such "duties to be always paid and applied to and for the "use of the Colony in which the same shall be levied." Thus was the claim of Parliamentary taxation fully, at last, renounced.
The second Bill was to enable His Majesty to appoint Commissioners with sufficient powers to treat with the insurgent Colonies. These Commissioners were to be five in number, and their powers most extensive. They were to raise no difficulties as to the rank or legal title of the leaders on the other side, but were left at liberty to treat, consult, and agree with any body or bodies politic, or any person or persons whatsoever. They might proclaim a cessation of hostilities on the part of the King's forces by sea or land, for any time, and under any conditions or restrictions. They might grant pardons and appoint Governors. They might suspend the operation of any Act of Parliament relating to America, passed since the 10th of February, 1763. The Americans, said Lord North, had desired a repeal of all the Acts after that date; but this could be taken only as a loose and general expression, since some of the Acts passed, as in 1769, were for the granting of bounties or the relaxation of imposts, and of such Acts the Americans could not be supposed to desire the repeal. Some choice and selection would, therefore, be required. As to those other Acts, such as the Massachusetts Charter Act, which had produced or inflamed the quarrel, Lord North explicitly stated his opinion that they ought to cease. Instead, however, of repealing them here without further delay, he deemed it best to refer the whole matter to the Commissioners upon the spot, since the Americans would consider Acts already repealed as merely the basis of a treaty, and might be tempted to raise some new demands upon it. The Commissioners, said Lord North, should be instructed to negotiate for some reasonable and moderate contribution towards the common defence of the empire when reunited; still this contribution was not to be insisted on as a Sine Qua Non; only if the Americans should refuse it, they were not to complain if hereafter they did not receive support from that part of the empire any proportion of whose charges they had declined to bear. Upon the whole it was, not obscurely, intimated that the Commissioners might accept almost any terms of reconciliation, short of independence, and subject to confirmation by a vote of Parliament.
The impression on the House that night, while Lord North was speaking, and after he sat down, is well described by the pen of a contemporary — no other, in all probability, than Burke: "A dull melancholy silence for "some time succeeded to this speech. It had been heard "with profound attention, but without a single mark of "approbation to any part, from any description of men, "or any particular man in the House. Astonishment, "dejection, and fear overclouded the whole assembly. "Although the Minister had declared that the senti"ments he expressed that day had been those which he "always entertained, it is certain that few or none had "understood him in that manner; and he had been repre"sented to the nation at large as the person in it the "most tenacious of those Parliamentary rights which "he now proposed to resign, and the most remote from "the submissions which he now proposed to make." *
It may be said, indeed, that there was not a single
* Annual Register, 1778, p. !3S. See also Gibbon's Letter to Holroyd, of February 23. 1778.
class or section of men within the walls of Parliament to which the plan of Lord North gave pleasure. The Ministerial party were confounded and abashed at finding themselves thus required to acknowledge their past errors and retrace their former steps. Some among them, as William Adam, and Morton, Chief Justice of Chester, loudly protested against the holding forth to rebels terms like these, which they said would dispirit the people and disgrace the Government. Others called out that they had been deceived and betrayed. In general, however, the majority acquiesced in sullen silence. On the other part, the Opposition were by no means gratified to see the wind, according to the common phrase, taken from their sails. They could not, indeed, offer any resistance to proposals so consonant to their own expressed opinions, but they took care to make their support as disagreeable and as damaging as possible. Fox began his speech by conplimenting the Minister on his happy conversion, and congratulating his own friends on the acquisition of so powerful an ally. Above all, the continuance of the Minister in office, under such circumstances, was inveighed against with more truth than taste by several of the chiefs upon the other side. Did Lord North, it was asked, believe himself to wield the spear of Achilles, able to heal the wounds which itself had made? Could the same statesman who had provoked the war look for welcome as a peace-maker? Must not his proposals, whatever they might be, come to the Americans as from a tainted spring, — raise their jealousy as hollow and insincere, or keep alive their resentment as inadequate and worthless?
In spite of such taunts, and far from friendly feelings on all sides, the Conciliatory Bills, as they have been termed, were not in reality opposed from any quarter. There was only one division on a clause moved by Mr. Powys to repeal expressly and by name the Massachusetts Charter Act. Lord North induced a large majority to vote against that clause, but agreed that the object in view should be attained by a separate measure. A Bill for the purpose was therefore introduced by Mr. Powys, and passed through Parliament concurrently with the other two. In the House of Lords the same arguments were with little change renewed. Lord Hillsborough, and Chatham's own brother-in-law, Lord Temple, vehemently declaimed against the Bills on the high prerogative ground, as forming a most disgraceful capitulation. The Ministers, on the other hand, received some acrimonious support from the Duke of Richmond and Lord Rockingham. Lord Shelburne took occasion to declare his full concurrence in the sentiments of Chatham, expressing "the strongest disapprobation of every idea that tended "to admit the independence of America," although acknowledging that future circumstances might create a necessity for such a submission. Lord Chatham himself was ill with gout at Hayes, and did not appear. There was no division; and on the 11th of March the King, seated on his Throne, gave to all three measures the Royal Assent.
Only two days previously Lord North, who had opened his Budget on the 6th, had carried through his financial Resolutions in the House of Commons, involving a new loan of 6,000,000/., which was contracted on advantageous terms. Thus were funds provided to pursue the war, should that be requisite. Thus was an opening made for negotiations, should they be practicable. In either case the path was cleared for a new administration. Here then was the moment which Lord North had for some time past desired — the moment when most with honour to himself, and most with advantage to his country, he could fulfil his intention of resigning. Several subordinate circumstances—several lesser causes of weakness or necessities for change in his government —might tend to confirm him in his purpose. He must have felt that the events of the last month had greatly shaken and loosened his hold over his majority in Parliament. In the House of Lords he had no supporter adequate to such troubled times. It would be necessary, should his government continue, to replace Lord Chancellor Bathurst by some more eloquent orator and more energetic statesman. In the Commons he was on the point of losing his principal colleague, Lord George Germaine. That nobleman, ever prompt and able, and in the Cabinet at least courageous, but hasty and violent, had embroiled himself in quarrels with the chief officers
under his direction. Sir Guy Carleton had been provoked to write to him with expressions of so much asperity that Sir Guy was in consequence removed from the Government of Canada. Sir William Howe, at the same juncture, was not less offended. He complained that while he had pressed for larger reinforcements, while he had been led to hope for them, while he had been allowed to frame his plans in consequence, none, or next to none, had in point of fact been sent him. At last, early in the winter, he had written to Lord George as follows : — " From the little attention, my Lord, given "to my recommendations since the commencement of my "command, I am led to hope that I may be relieved from "this very painful service, wherein I have not the good "fortune to enjoy the necessary confidence and support "of my superiors, but which I conclude will be extended "to Sir Henry Clinton, my presumptive successor, or to "such other servant as the King may be pleased to "appoint. By the return, therefore, of the packet I "humbly request I may have His Majesty's permission "to resign the command."* His request, perhaps on other grounds not undesirable, was soon granted, although, as was foreseen, involving probably the retirement also of his brother, Lord Howe. On the 4th of February we find Lord George write to Sir William announcing the desired permission from His Majesty, and at the same time directing him to deliver his orders and instructions to Sir Henry Clinton, as his successor. Yet, within a month of that 4th of February, Lord George, in a sally of anger, had himself resigned. The ground of his displeasure was, that the King, anxious to reward the past services of a most deserving officer, bestowed on Sir Guy Carleton the sinecure government of Charlemont, which Lord George chose to construe as an insult to himself. His retirement appears to have been agreed to and resolved upon, since we find the King, in his secret letters of this period, allude to his

Top Pro-Abortion Democrat Says Planned Parenthood Shooter Sounds Like Most Pro-Lifers
National | Steven Ertelt | Dec 18, 2015 | 12:36PM | Washington, DC
The attempt to pin the blame for the horrible shooting at Planned Parenthood abortion clinic — allegedly perpetrated by a deranged man with a long history of criminal activity and mental health issues — on the pro-life movement continues. Now a top Democrat senator says the shooter, Robert Lewis Dear, sounds like most pro-lifers.
Dear made outbursts in court during a recent appearance where he was formally charged, and he made some comments about Planned Parenthood killing babies and selling their part — a topic that has been in the news over the last several months as the abortion company has been caught potentially breaking the law to sell aborted baby parts.
Now, pro-abortion Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen on Thursday said Dear's comments sound a lot like pro-life advocates who have been working to expose Planned Parenthood — a clear attempt to make it appear that legitimate efforts to hold the abortion company accountable are responsible for Dear's reprehensible actions that resulted in killing three people and injuring nine others.
Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen on Thursday said some of the statements made by the Colorado Planned Parenthood shooter mirrored "outrageous and inciteful" comments made by "some of our officials" on social media.
"One of the things we heard from the shooter in Colorado Springs, he almost parroted some of the outrageous and inciteful comments that have been made on social media by some of our officials," the New Hampshire senator said on WKBK Radio. "And that is not a good way to address the issues facing this country."
"We need to have thoughtful dialogue," she added. "We need to be respectful of other people's opinions. We need to understand that we're not all going to agree but hopefully we can agree to be respectful, and we can agree to debate issues peacefully without name calling without getting into personal attacks. I think that's part of how we respond as well as looking at laws."

Robert Dear, the alleged shooter of three people at the Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs said in court that he was guilty and called himself a "warrior for the babies." Several media outlets also cited unnamed law enforcement officials to report Dear said "no more baby parts" when he was taken into custody.
Dear, 57-years-old and residing in the mountains of Colorado, was arrested at the scene in connection with the violent shooting that claimed the lives of three people, including one police officer and injured 9 others, including multiple officers. Dear reportedly mentioned "baby body parts" when arrested at the scene of the crime, but he has no connections with the pro-life movement and has a long criminal record and is described by those who know him best as someone with clear mental health issues.
During the hearing, Dear sat at the table with Dan King, a public defender who represented James Holmes in the Aurora theater shooting trial. Dear was dressed in a blue prison-issue jumpsuit and was seen rocking back and forth during the hearing as officials took care of business. He reportedly started straight ahead and said nothing until the outburst.
Dear appears to have no association with the pro-life movement and those who know him say he is an awkward man who never discussed religion or abortion. The profile they paint is far from a caricature of a pro-life activist who has an issue with the Planned Parenthood abortion business and more of a loner or renegade who may have mental health issue and, at a minimum, is a bit "off."
Since the shooting, a massive debate has ensued over any bearing it may have on the abortion debate.
Less than 24 hours after the shooting, the CEO of the abortion company, Cecile Richards, issued a fundraising email essentially blaming pro-life people for the shooting, saying the "feed domestic terrorism."
Planned Parenthood officials have confirmed none of the people killed in the shooting or 9 victims who were injured were Planned Parenthood abortion clinic staff or patients and authorities have released no motive for the shooter as to whether or not he actually targeted Planned Parenthood. And, according to the Associated Press, all of the shooting took place outside of the Planned Parenthood abortion clinic, not in it.
As LifeNews reported, the police officer killed during Friday's shooting at a Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood is pro-life and a co-pastor at his local church. Garrett Swasey, 44, the University of Colorado Colorado Springs police officer who was shot and killed while responding to the shooting and was described by his fellow church members and friends as a courageous man and loving father who drew strength and inspiration from his Christian faith.
Family members and friends identified the other two victims as 29-year-old Ke'Arre Stewart and Jennifer Markovsky, 35. Both accompanied friends to the Planned Parenthood on Friday.
Multiple pro-life groups quickly condemned the shooting while pro-abortion presidential candidate Hillary Clinton sent a tweet exploiting the active shooting before the shooter was apprehended or a motive known to push for support for the abortion business and then went on to say pro-life people should "defend Planned Parenthood, not attack it." And President Obama exploiting the shooting to demand pro-life people stop "demonizing" Planned Parenthood.
Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains issued a statement responding to the shooting, saying it doesn't know if Planned Parenthood was the target of the attack.
"We don't yet know the full circumstances and motives behind this criminal action, and we don't yet know if Planned Parenthood was in fact the target of this attack," Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains President Vicki Cowart said in a statement.
Cowart was accused of pushing abortion at the memorial for the shooting victims and one woman walked out after she politicized the event.

Q: Why $|e^{itx}| = 1$? I'm studying some demonstrations of properties of characteristic function in which  I have  to use that $|e^{itx}| = 1$ but I don't understand it at all. Could you give a clue to demonstrate it?

A: Hint: $$e^{itx}=\cos(tx)+i\sin(tx)$$

A: A key property of the exponential map is
$$e^ze^{z^\prime} = e^{z+z^\prime}$$
This can be proven using Cauchy product.
Based on that, you get for $y \in \mathbb R$
$$\vert e^{iy}\vert^2= e^{iy} \overline{e^{iy}}=e^{iy}e^{-iy}=e^{iy-iy}=1$$

Q: How to join values from one column to another I have two tables Notification and Worker Notifications. On those tables there are two similar columns called Time. My worker class inherits Notification and I would like to join all preexisting times on worker with notification time.
id | Worker| Time
-------------
10 | John| 8/17/2019
20 | Rui| 8/17/2019
30 | Pen| 8/17/2019

id | Notification| Time |WorkerID
-----------------------------------
10 | John| 8/17/2019 | 10
20 | Rui| 8/17/2019  |20
30 | Pen| 8/17/2019  |30

SELECT category_id, col1, col2, col3
  FROM items_a
UNION
SELECT category_id, col1, col2, col3
  FROM items_b

A: I dare say it should actually be
SELECT *
FROM
  worker w
  INNER JOIN
  notifications n
  ON
    w.id = n.workerid

I say this because a notification has a workerid so it clearly "belongs to a worker" - it isn't necessarily related to a worker based on the time, as if two times are the same then you could end up joining a notification assigned to John, to Dave intead
But if you insist on joining on the time the pattern is the same:
SELECT *
FROM
  worker w
  INNER JOIN
  notifications n
  ON
    w.time = n.time

JOIN causes your result set to grow sideways (more columns). UNION causes your result set to grow vertically (more rows)

Humana Issues Positive Coverage Decision For Optune
More than 107 million Americans now have coverage of Optune as a treatment for newly diagnosed and/or recurrent glioblastoma
March 03, 2016 07:30 AM Eastern Standard Time
ST. HELIER, Jersey–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Novocure (NASDAQ:NVCR) announced today that Humana now covers Optune for members who have recurrent glioblastoma (GBM). Humana is the ninth commercial payer in the United States to issue a positive coverage policy for the use of Optune for the treatment of newly diagnosed and/or recurrent glioblastoma. Humana administers medical benefit plans that cover approximately 10 million individuals in group and individual business lines.
Humana's positive coverage policy of Optune – a portable, noninvasive device that delivers Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) therapy to patients with newly diagnosed and recurrent GBM – follows previous positive coverage policies from Anthem, Aetna, Cigna and HealthNet.
About Tumor Treating Fields Therapy
Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) therapy is delivered by a portable, non-invasive medical device designed for continuous use by patients. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown that TTFields therapy slows and reverses tumor growth by inhibiting mitosis, the process by which cells divide and replicate. TTFields therapy creates low intensity, alternating electric fields within a tumor that exert physical forces on electrically charged cellular components, preventing the normal mitotic process and causing cancer cell death.
In the United States, Optune is intended as a treatment for adult patients (22 years of age or older) with histologically-confirmed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM).
In the United States, Optune with temozolomide is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with newly diagnosed, supratentorial glioblastoma following maximal debulking surgery and completion of radiation therapy together with concomitant standard of care chemotherapy.
In the United States, for the treatment of recurrent GBM, Optune is indicated following histologically-or radiologically-confirmed recurrence in the supratentorial region of the brain after receiving chemotherapy. The device is intended to be used as a monotherapy, and is intended as an alternative to standard medical therapy for GBM after surgical and radiation options have been exhausted.
In the European Union, Optune is intended for the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed GBM, after surgery and radiotherapy with adjuvant temozolomide, concomitant to maintenance temozolomide. The treatment is intended for adult patients, 18 years of age or older, and should be started more than four weeks after surgery and radiation therapy with adjuvant temozolomide. Treatment may be given together with maintenance temozolomide and after maintenance temozolomide is stopped.
In the European Union, Optune is also intended for the treatment of patients with recurrent GBM who have progressed after surgery, radiotherapy and temozolomide treatment for their primary disease. The treatment is intended for adult patients, 18 years of age or older, and should be started more than 4 weeks after the latest surgery, radiation therapy or chemotherapy.
Patients should only use Optune under the supervision of a physician properly trained in use of the device. Full prescribing information is available at www.optune.com/safety or by calling toll free 1-855-281-9301 in the US or by email at supportEMEA@novocure.com in the European Union.

Media and Investors:


All they do is eat, sleep, and poop. We're cleaning their houses at least twice a day now, and they are going through leaves at an incredible rate. Their gluttony has lead to a major size increase, and we have actually watched a few of them molt. I think the pupating stage draws nigh.
I am concerned that some of them are not as "normal" as they should be. In particular their feelers seem to lack symmetry, and I've read both that this could be due to injury from a crowded environment (as they've gotten bigger we have separated them into more tubs), and that it is a sign of OE, the infection that ultimately kills, often during eclosing. If it's OE we are in for a really heartbreaking end, but I keep telling myself it's possible I'm just over-worrying. We are keeping our fingers crossed.
Remember when they were oh so tiny???


Dr. Charles Krauthammer (1950–2018) was a former psychiatrist and arch-neoconservative who had been a Beltway denizen for the last three decades. He was also a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist for the Washington Post and a regular guest on Fox News. He died of cancer.
Given that he grew up in Montreal, it should come as no surprise Krauthammer graduated from McGill University. What is mysterious is how a patriotic young man would not return to his home country, enroll in an American school (McGill is a prestigious institution: he'd have his pick of the top tiers) and join the ROTC.
Liberal internationalism: The multilateral approach to foreign intervention. Liberals seek to intervene in foreign affairs through supranational organizations like the UN (e.g., Bill Clinton and the Balkans) but restrain unilateral intervention using those same bodies (e.g. Iraq).
Realism: There is no "international community" but a collective of competing powers which are kept in check by the US as the sole superpower. The US should intervene everywhere in foreign affairs to protect its national interests.
Democratic globalism: A philosophy built on American exceptionalism that claims the US has the duty to "spread democracy" throughout the world.
""…[T]his is its axiom: We will support democracy everywhere, but we will commit blood and treasure only in places where there is a strategic necessity — meaning, places central to the larger war against the existential enemy, the enemy that poses a global mortal threat to freedom.
How did his philosophy work out? Keep reading.
Krauthammer was known for being one of the biggest media cheerleaders for the War in Iraq. Like all the others, he was consistently wrong (see also: Friedman Unit). In one 2003 column, he noted, "if in a year or two we are able to leave behind a stable, friendly government, we will have succeeded. If not, we will have failed. And all the geniuses will be vindicated." Aha.
He later jumped on board the Bush administration's shifting goalposts and attempts to shove the WMD claims down the memory hole. The invasion was always about bringing democracy to the Iraqi people, not WMD! And Elvis didn't do no drugs!
Krauthammer called himself "Jewish but not religious." Probably as a result of this, he had major differences with the Religious Right and was known for supporting pro-choice policy, increased funding for stem cell research, and opposition to the death penalty. Stopped clock.
When it comes to evolution, Krauthammer had been one of the few voices from the right loudly denouncing intelligent design. He didn't mince words on this topic, having called the evolution-Intelligent Design "debate" a "false conflict" and deriding ID as "tarted-up creationism" and a "phony theory". Predictably, the wingnuts didn't take kindly to this.
Unfortunately, Krauthammer slipped when it comes to global warming. While he called himself a "global warming agnostic" rather than a "denier" and acknowledged how "it can't be very good to pump lots of CO2 into the atmosphere", all he did whenever he wrote on the subject is spew tired denialist talking points about how the science isn't settled and how environmentalism is a religion.

WIKIMEDIA, NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTEElwood Jensen, a widely renowned breast cancer researcher, died last month (December 16) due to complications of pneumonia, his son, Thomas Jensen, told The New York Times. His work, recognized by a 2004 Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award, led to the development of live-saving breast cancer treatments. He was 92 years old.
Jensen started out at the University of Chicago in 1947 studying steroid hormones, such as estrogen. He used radioactive tracers to identify the estrogen's intracellular receptors that mediated the hormone's cellular effects. He then looked for such estrogen receptors in breast cancer cells, and found that they were missing in some cancers. This information—for which Jensen and University of Chicago colleague Geoffrey Greene developed a test now in clinical use—became critical for determining the appropriate treatment of the disease: breast cancers that have estrogen receptors can be treated with estrogen receptor antagonists, such as Tamoxifen, while such therapies will often fail to kill tumors that lack such receptors.
Jensen's research also contributed to new treatments for prostate and other cancers that targeted steroid hormone behavior.
In 2002, Jensen moved to the University of Cincinnati, where he continued to work until last year. He is survived by his second wife—who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005 and successfully treated with an estrogen synthesis inhibitor—as well as a sister and two children.


Let Sam Durgin, Rifton's lead chair designer, show you how to adjust the seat height of both the Hi/Lo and Standard base Rifton Activity Chair models. He also teaches you how to turn a non-mobile Standard base chair into a mobile one, and explains the directional lock feature on Standard base casters. A transcript is provided below for viewers with hearing disabilities.
[00:00:11.13] Sam Durgin: I'm going to show you the height adjustment we provided on the hi/lo base. We have a hydraulic jack, mounted underneath the seat, which gives you excellent mechanical advantage for raising and lowering the child. To lower the child, I am lifting, brushing past the red trigger with my toe, and lifting on the pedal and I can get the footboard all the way down to the floor, which is great for circle time, or interaction with peers at low seat-height level.
[00:00:48.16] Sam Durgin: Now I'll show the standard base option. This chair on my left is the standard base option, with the short legs all the way in, which gets you right down to 12 inches seat height off the floor. And this chair has 23 inches seat height off the floor it is the long legs with casters. There are four leg options you can choose, so you could set the whole chair up as a high chair with the long stationary legs, or short mobile legs, and that is done very simply with a snap button. I can depress this and adjust the seat height in 1 inch increments. Or, if I want to remove the leg extension all the way, I can now put on legs with casters. Now we have a mobile chair. We had many requests for an improvement on our mobility option, so what we've come up with is a direction lock. If I step on this cylinder, I am locking my back wheel so that I have a fixed back caster. This gives me a soft pivot point where I can point the front of the chair to where I want to go, very similar to a shopping cart. To remove this lock, I just lift up on the plunger, and now I'm back to four casters on the floor.

I am citizen of Turkey. If I transfer my savings to UK, do I need to pay taxes to UK over this wealth transfer?
I am not a resident of UK and will not live there. Just want to transfer it to a safer country.
The UK doesn't tax money transfers themselves at all, either transferring into or out of the UK. You also shouldn't be charged any taxes on any interest on the savings as you won't be resident.
You would probably owe taxes on the interest to Turkey, and under the "Automatic Exchange of Information" rules the UK would probably inform Turkey directly about any interest you received.

SS Usoga is a disused cargo and passenger Lake Victoria ferry in East Africa.

History

Bow, McLachlan and Company of Paisley in Renfrewshire, Scotland built Usoga and her sister ship  in 1913. They were "knock down" vessels; that is, they were bolted together in the shipyard at Paisley, all the parts marked with numbers, disassembled into many hundreds of parts and transported in kit form by sea to Kenya for reassembly.

Usoga entered service on the lake in 1915 and was a troop ship during the First World War East African Campaign. After the Armistice she entered civilian service as a Lake Victoria ferry.

In 1975 the East African Railways and Harbours Corporation laid her up at the Lake Victoria port of Kisumu. In the 1990s she sank at the quayside and she was still there in 2006 and 2007, along with the slightly earlier  from the same fleet.

Hare Krishna! The Film
A full-length documentary on Srila Prabhupada's life hits the big screen in movie theatres worldwide.
By Vishakha Devi Dasi
Veteran ISKCON filmmakers fulfill their desire to introduce Srila Prabhupada to audiences around the world.
I was in Houston, Texas, for the premiere screening of the Hare Krishna! film, and during the question-and-answer session after the screening, an elderly woman in the front row raised her hand. I called on her.
"For many years now," she said, "I've had a dream I wanted to fulfill, but I kept telling myself that I was too old, that such dreams were meant for people half my age or less. But after seeing your film and what Srila Prabhupada did at such an advanced age, now I realize that I'm not too old. That I can also try to fulfill my dream and, with God's mercy, maybe I will have a tiny bit of the success that Prabhupada had."
In March of 1974 my husband, Yadubara Dasa, said to Srila Prabhupada, "We would like to make a film about your life."
Yadubara and I had just released the first documentary film on the Hare Krishna movement, The Hare Krishna People. We'd premiered that film in Mayapur, West Bengal, during Gaura Purnima, the full-moon festival in honor of the anniversary of the appearance of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, and devotees from around the world were enthusiastic to screen the film in their temples and in other places when they traveled to spread Krishna consciousness.
Thinking of our next project, Yadubara had approached Srila Prabhupada.
Prabhupada considered the question and said, "What is the need?"
"Since devotees are now chanting the maha-mantra on the streets of major cities everywhere," Yadubara replied, "many people throughout the world have heard of Hare Krishna. But very few people have heard of you, the person who founded the Hare Krishna movement in the West. We feel it's important for people to know the person behind the movement."
Again Prabhupada considered. Then with a casual left-to-right movement of his head, he said, "Yes, then it is all right."
Yadubara and I had made The Hare Krishna People film under the banner of ISKCON Cinema, an entity established to produce films on the Hare Krishna movement. As the ISKCON Cinema team, Yadubara and I went on to make other films: The Spiritual Frontier, Brilliant as the Sun, A Spark of Life, The Golden Avatar, Vrindavan: Land of Krishna, The World of Hare Krishna, and Your Ever Well-Wisher. We also produced an eleven-part chronological DVD series that contained all the known footage of Srila Prabhupada along with commentary by his followers and acquaintances.
Then in 2013, Hari Sauri Dasa, who was organizing the museum exhibitions in the upcoming Temple of the Vedic Planetarium (TOVP) in Mayapur, suggested that we make a documentary on the life of Srila Prabhupada for screening in the large, modern TOVP theatre.
Initially Yadubara and I resisted the idea. Your Ever Well-Wisher, released in 1983, was a 55-minute documentary on Srila Prabhupada's life and had been well received by devotees. Why not use that? But in rewatching that film, we realized why we should not use it: The film techniques (a narrator and a straight linear story with no flashbacks) as well as the technical quality of the film were outdated. And that film was oriented for a devotee audience; we needed a ninety-minute film oriented for the public. (Ninety minutes is the standard length for publicly screened documentaries.)
So we began Hare Krishna! The Mantra, the Movement, and the Swami who started it all.
We thought this film would take two years to complete – twice as long as any of our other films – but Hare Krishna! turned into a four-year project. We thought our initial budget was reasonable and covered all our projected expenses, but the actual cost of Hare Krishna! was twice our estimate. Not having previously made a film for public release, we needed a larger crew, and as word spread of the project, one by one they came.
Help first came in the form of Coralie Tapper from Australia. She did the bureaucratic groundwork for our new, nonprofit production company, Inner Voice Productions, Inc. Her sister, Hladini Radha Devi Dasi, offered her talents as an editor, and in the backyard of our production house in Alachua, Florida, Hladini's husband, Krishna Murari Dasa, created an excellent set of Srila Prabhupada's cabin aboard the Jaladuta cargo ship that carried him from India to the United States.
Other dedicated, talented, and enthusiastic young people joined us: Krishna Sakti Dasa, a film editor from Los Angeles; Lalita Priya Devi Dasi, a producer/director from Sydney; and Lalita Priya's cousin Jessica Heinrich, also a producer and also from Sydney.
A Mountain of Material
In our production house near the New Raman Reti temple community, our small team struggled. One of our biggest challenges was the mountain of material we had to work with: 31 hours of footage of Srila Prabhupada, archival footage of India from the 1900s showing the culture and events that Srila Prabhupada lived in and through, archival footage from the 1960s and '70s of the U.S. when Srila Prabhupada arrived, 90 hours of interviews with followers and scholars who knew Prabhupada and his movement, 20,000 photographs of Srila Prabhupada and his followers, reenactments of Srila Prabhupada's childhood and meeting his spiritual master, reenactments of his 1967 health crisis, plus 1,800 hours of audio – lectures and conversations of Srila Prabhupada. Where to start and what to use?
From the beginning our vision for Hare Krishna! was that Srila Prabhupada would tell his own story in his own words. Making that a reality, though, was difficult. Prabhupada almost always spoke about different aspects of the philosophy of Krishna consciousness, but once in a while, on rare occasions, he would relate what it was like to be alone in New York City at age seventy with no steady source of income, no supporters, and no friends; what it was like for him when everything he had of value was stolen from the Manhattan office space he was renting; how he started the first temple at 26 Second Avenue in Manhattan, and so forth. These sentences were gems for us, and we strung them together so that as far as possible Srila Prabhupada tells his own story in his film. He also occasionally explains the basic tenets of Krishna consciousness and even jokes with a reporter.
We worked with this audio and visual material for two and a half years and came up with a two-hour, twenty-minute rough edit. And we were stuck. We needed to cut out fifty minutes but no longer knew what to include and what to exclude. We were attached to it all.
Then, through a friend of a friend, we met Peter Rader and Paola di Florio, Hollywood documentary filmmakers, who saw our rough cut and, although they hadn't previously heard of Prabhupada, became captivated by his message, his personality, and especially his story. With the help of their fresh and expert input, we were able to work steadily forward, making major and minor adjustments to the film. Peter and Paola also offered us all their contacts for both film production and distribution, which in the end proved most valuable.
In September 2016 we held a test screening of our now ninety-minute film in Gainesville, Florida, inviting seventy newcomers to see the film and give written and spoken feedback. We also had another test screening with a small group of devotees from the Alachua, Florida, community where we were based. As a result of all this input, the film's title changed from Acharya (hardly anyone knows what it means) to Hare Krishna! (which is famous) and got further insights into how to shape the film.
Successful Release
One contact from Peter and Paola was Richard Abramowitz, head of Abramorama, a film distribution and marketing company.
After seeing the film, Richard wrote, "We think your film is terrific: consistently smart and interesting. We're certain there's an audience for it."
And indeed there was. Richard was enthusiastic to represent our film to cinema houses throughout the U.S. and Canada, and we signed a contract engaging not only Abramorama but also their partner PR company, Falco Ink, which has represented such Academy Award winners as Gladiator and American Beauty. We also submitted the film to the 2017 Illuminate Film Festival, the world's premiere festival for "conscious cinema," held annually in Sedona, Arizona. To our surprise and by Krishna's grace, on June 4 Hare Krishna! won the Jury Prize for best film of the festival.
The world public premiere in New York City was on June 16, 2017, before a full house in the Village East Cinema, just blocks from the first Hare Krishna temple at 26 Second Avenue. The Los Angeles premiere followed, and in both cities the weeklong screenings were extended. Then Hare Krishna! traveled to 36 North American cities (346 screenings), Moscow (premiering on Srila Prabhupada's appearance day), India (50 cities and 700 screenings), South Africa, Botswana, Mauritius, Bahrain, Holland, the United Kingdom, and other countries throughout the world. Lilananda Dasa, our marketing director for Latin America, with the help of a team of devotees, organized screenings in 136 cities.
Although Hare Krishna! received some favorable comments from professional film reviewers, overall their reviews were not anywhere near as favorable as the responses from the public – members of the audience – many of whom were previously unfamiliar with Prabhupada, his teachings, and his mission.

Volunteers lend a helping hand
COFFS Harbour Health Campus volunteers have a new leadership team that's pledged to continue the group's proud volunteering history at the hospital.
After committee elections this week, Judy Clarke, Denise Thompson and Margaret Allen will share the co-ordinator's role and will be assisted by founding member Barbara Wilson as treasurer and Margaret Kelly as secretary.
Judy said the group, which has about 30 members, assists with general duties on wards, provides administrative support, collates information packs for patients and provides an enquiry desk service for visitors.
"Our volunteers come from all walks of life. We have teachers, office workers, managers, retired professionals, mums and dads, and people who are still working," Judy said.
"The group started at the old hospital about 20 years ago and continues to provide a service to the hospital which we think is pretty special, and we know is greatly appreciated.
"Two of our members - Shirley Hunter and Barbara Wilson - have been with the group since the start. It's a remarkable effort.
"We support staff in almost every area of the hospital, from the pre-admissions clinic to the medical ward."
VOLUNTEERS: Keryl Hoey, Linda Condi, Jeany Chang, Catherine McGroder and Sue Kelly with the new committee – secretary Margaret Kelly, co-ordinators Margaret Allen, Denise Thompson and Judy Clarke and outgoing co-ordinator Christine Edwards.
Coffs Harbour Health Campus also receives volunteer support from The Silent Visitors in palliative care, Pastoral volunteers, the Red Cross Play Scheme in Paediatrics and the Pink Ladies.
"We are so lucky to have the support of so many good people who choose to spend their time helping our staff, our patients and their families," Hospital general manager Dr Theresa Beswick said.
"We greatly value our relationship with all of our volunteers and we are indebted to each and every one of them for their service and for their support."

On a big day for Florida, Governor Ron DeSantis assumed his new position on Tuesday and, despite his efforts to delay it, Amendment 4 took effect.
As the state's longest-serving governor leaves office buoyed by positive news stories, it's easy to forget the times when his governorship and the state budget seemed doomed to crash.
Attorneys oversee the ballot process at the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections Warehouse on November 15th, 2018, in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Both amendments were patterned after a successful policy change in Tennessee.

The U.S. unemployment rate took another baby-step down this morning according to the Labor Department, who say employers added just 88,000 jobs last month. Economists are concerned that the number of jobs added didn't match optimistic expectations given signs of recovery in the housing and consumer sectors. Many are left scratching their heads.
According to the 2013 State of Women-Owned Business Report commissioned annually by American Express OPEN, the jobs lie in the hands of women. In particular the hands of female founders whose businesses have trailed only massive publicly traded firms in job creation since the recession began to devastate the market in 2007.
By AMEX's measure, over the past six years, the only businesses that have provided a net increase in employment are large, publicly traded corporations, which is responsible for the overwhelming bulk of new jobs (an estimated 5.9 million jobs)... and privately held majority women-owned firms which have added 175,000. In all other privately held firms, employment has declined by more than half a million jobs over the 2007–2013 period.
When Womenable President and CEO Julie Weeks recently delved into the earnings of women-led firms she was thrilled to discover that at the highest end of reported earnings—that is to say, more than $10 million in annual revenues—the number of women-owned firms has grown by 56.6% since 2002—fully 47% higher than the 38.4% increase among all $10M+ firms regardless of gender.
But by any measure it's not happening quickly enough.
The tale of women's business ownership and growth is, in many ways, a tragic comedy—women are experiencing faster than average growth over time, yet their companies reveal a massive disparity in firm size, revenues and overall impact. While women-owned (and equally-owned firms) together represent 46% of all U.S. private businesses, they contribute 13% of employment numbers and just 8% of overall revenue.
The vast majority of women-led firms have revenues of under $1 million, and within that earnings group there's not much ramping up of activity. Many small businesses seem content at that level—and these businesses are unlikely to be the source of significant employment now or ever.
Gender aside, a full 82% of all privately held companies—including 90% of women-owned firms—have no employees other than the business owner. Just 4% of all firms and 2% of women-owned firms have 10 or more employees—and less than 1% of both male- and female-led firms having 500 or more employees.
Obviously it's the larger firms—though small in number—that do and will continue to account for the lion's share of jobs. The 2% of women-owned firms with 10 or more employees account for 76% of all of the jobs provided by women-owned firms, while economy-wide the 4% of firms with 10 or more workers supply 90% of all jobs in the private sector. So it's at the top level, where Weeks discovered the rapid growth in women-led firms with earnings over $10 million, where the dial is moving significantly—and where employment is ramping up.
