Editorial: In Donald Trump's America, Defending a Fair Election Can Lead to Death Threats
Only in Donald Trump's America do U.S. election officials suffer harrassment and even fear for their lives when simply doing their jobs doesn't align with the Trumpian will. And only in Donald Trump's America do the neither the president, nor Republican lawmakers, speak out against the situation. Donald Trump's inability to accept the results of a fair and free presidential election in which he was not the winner has influenced his loyalists to reject the results, as well, and their response threatens to be deadly.
In the month following Election Day 2020, a number of government officials— even some who voted for Trump— have suffered real and threatened retaliation for refusing to change or deny the results of the election that resulted in Joe Biden's victory as president-elect. Governors, secretaries of state, a senior Homeland Security official, and even a 20-year-old contractor from a voting system company, have received death threats and/or calls for removal from their jobs for acting with integrity. In addition, the Attorney General, usually a Trump sycophant, has just spoken up and denied any findings of election fraud that would change the results of the election.
Even though Donald Trump's legal team has lost more than 40 lawsuits in its efforts to overturn the election results, all evidence confirms that the 2020 election was free and fair. Election officials and security experts have said that it was the most secure presidential election in American history. Yet Trump's insistence that the election was stolen from him has not let up. If anything, it has grown more insistent, and more detached from reality as time goes by, as recounts confirm the winner, and as certifications are completed. In turn, Trump's supporters have broken with reality. The only remedy, as they see it, would be to remove those who stand in the way of what they want reality to be.
"Someone's going to get hurt, someone's going to get shot, someone's going to get killed, and it's not right," said Georgia's voting implementation manager, Gabriel Sterling, during a press conference. Sterling called on Trump to condemn the threats against election officials and others.
Sterling, a Republican, oversaw the tally of votes in Georgia, as well as the recount demanded by Donald Trump. His confirmation of Joe Biden as the winner, and his refusal to participate in or support the unlawful overturn of Georgia's election drew wrath from president Trump. Trump's denigration of Sterling, not unexpectedly, spurred Trump supporters to take up their pitchforks and hurl verbal abuse, complete with death threats, at Sterling.
Sterling's boss, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, has endured verbal abuse and death threats, as well, for standing up to pressure to "put his thumb" on the results of the Georgia election. Raffensperger certified Joe Biden as the winner. It wasn't long before caravans of loud, horn-honking Trump supporters began repeatedly driving by his home, some even trespassing on his property. Raffensperger's wife has received sexually explicit threats on her cell phone. Republican U.S. Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue, both running for re-election in Georgia's January 5 run-off election, have called for Raffensperger's firing— simply because he won't unlawfully change the election results to make Donald Trump the winner.
Donald Trump has called Raffensperger an enemy of the people. "The people" being, of course, those who want Donald Trump to get (at least) another four years in office, even if by unethical means.
There's nothing like acting with integrity to incite the anger of a staunch Trump supporter. Well, some of them, anyway. For others, like most GOP lawmakers in Congress, there's nothing like watching Donald Trump incite violence and lawlessness to incite their silence.
"This is elections," said Sterling. "This is the backbone of democracy, and all of you who have not said a damn word are complicit in this. It's too much. Yes, fight for every legal vote. Go through your due process. We encourage you. Use your first amendment. That's fine.
"Death threats, physical threats, intimidation, it's too much. It's not right. They've lost the moral high ground to claim that it is," he said.
Sterling talked of the 20-year-old voting system contractor whom QAnon influencers targeted on Twitter. The influencer claimed to have a video of the contractor changing votes, though he was in reality pulling a report from a voting machine, using a laptop to read the data. (Third-party software is not allowed on voting machines.) The Twitter campaign against him led to death threats, as well as a noose being placed outside his house. "I've got police protection outside my house. Fine," Sterling continued. "You know, I took a higher-profile job. I get it. Secretary ran for office. His wife knew that too. This kid took a job. He just took a job. It's just wrong."
Even Georgia's governor, Brian Kemp, himself a Trump supporter, has been derided by Donald Trump for following the law regarding the election. Trump has pressured Kemp to issue an executive order to re-match signatures to absentee ballots, which Trump insists would turn the election in his favor.
"Why won't Governor @BrianKempGA, the hapless Governor of Georgia, use his emergency powers, which can be easily done, to overrule his obstinate Secretary of State, and do a match of signatures on envelopes," Trump tweeted on Monday morning. "It will be a 'goldmine' of fraud, and we will easily WIN the state…"
Twitter immediately flagged Trump's tweet as containing unsubstantiated claims. "This claim about election fraud is disputed" appears under more of Trump's tweets than not, of late.
In response to Trump, Governor Kemp's office released this statement: "Georgia law prohibits the Governor from interfering in elections. The Secretary of State, who is an elected constitutional officer, has oversight over elections that cannot be overridden by executive order. As the Governor has said repeatedly, he will continue to follow the law and encourage the Secretary of State to take reasonable steps – including a sample audit of signatures – to restore trust and address serious issues that have been raised."
Brian Kemp is not the only state governor to be attacked by Trump for failing to ensure that the election turned out the way Trump wanted it to. Arizona governor Doug Ducey, also a Republican whose re-election bid Trump endorsed in 2018, has become one more target of Trump's verbal abuse. Ducey's signing off on Arizona's election certification of Joe Biden as the winner prompted a Trump tweet storm in which Trump accused Ducey of betraying "the people of Arizona" by not helping to overturn the results of the election.
Trump has made it clear that he thinks that any government official who is loyal to him must enable or support the overturn of the election. Otherwise, they are traitors who deserve his wrath, and whatever else his loyal supporters might deem necessary.
Take "traitor" Chris Krebs, who was Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) in the United States Department of Homeland Security— until shortly after the 2020 presidential election. Krebs, a Republican and a Trump appointee in charge of the agency responsible for election security, debunked conspiracy theories that the 2020 election was rife with fraud, saying that the 2020 election was "the country's most secure, ever."
Donald Trump fired Krebs almost immediately, using his Human Resources representative of choice, Twitter. "The recent statement by Chris Krebs on the security of the 2020 Election was highly inaccurate, in that there were massive improprieties and fraud – including dead people voting, Poll Watchers not allowed into polling locations, 'glitches" in the voting machines which changed…
"…votes from Trump to Biden, late voting, and many more. Therefore, effective immediately, Chris Krebs has been terminated as Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency." (Followed by Twitter's "This claim about election fraud is disputed.")
Trump campaign lawyer Joseph DiGenova followed up by calling for Krebs' head. DiGenova, part of the Trump legal team behind the numerous unsuccessful and increasingly unhinged lawsuits to try to overturn election results, said on Newsmax's The Howie Carr Show, "Anybody who thinks the election went well, like that idiot Krebs who used to be the head of cybersecurity. That guy is a class A moron. He should be drawn and quartered. Taken out at dawn and shot."
DiGenova, who was once a respected U.S. district attorney, could face disciplinary action for his remarks. Neither president Trump, nor Republican lawmakers as a group have condemned the comments. Nor have they spoken out or tried to stop any of the other threatening words and behavior aimed at the election officials who stand behind the results of the election.
"DiGenova, who said for Chris Krebs to get shot, is a former US attorney," said Gabriel Sterling during Monday's press conference. "He knows better. The people around the president know better. Mr President, as the secretary said yesterday, people aren't giving you the best advice of what's actually going on on the ground. It's time to look forward. If you want to run for re-election in four years, fine – do it. But everything we're seeing right now, there's not a path. Be the bigger man here, and step in. Tell your supporters: 'Don't be violent. Don't intimidate.' All that's wrong. It's un-American."
Donald Trump knows, however, that his loyalists like it when he talks violence. He also knows that they interpret his unwillingness to soundly condemn it as being in support of it. Those who voted for him a second time have made clear over the last four years that they don't care whether Donald Trump is the "bigger man." Trump has remained silent about the threats and violence, but he has doubled down on his baseless conspiracy theories about the election, and it energizes his base. And because it energizes his base, Republican lawmakers remain silent for fear of losing votes. Donald Trump knows this.

...its the record companies that have the say on which tracks are album only not Apple. It sounds a great album wth a few duds but the ony album options knocks it doen to 3 stars.
I literally only bought for this song, I remember listening live thinking it's the best performance of it ever...my favourite!
This is a fantastic album top to toe...Jazz, Pop and Acoustic....but with some twists. A must have. Best album if the year so far !
This is for a real tasters in music.


Dutch DJ/Producer R3hab is one of the hottest names in Electronic Dance Music right now. The highly sought after "dutch house" producer has remixed for artists like Lady Gaga, LMFAO, Calvin Harris, Kaskade and Katy Perry. R3hab will be performing at Axis Radius March 9th, 2013 so we sat down and had a chat with him about what his fans in Arizona can expect at his live performance!
AFM: I've seen you live before in Seattle, then again at Paradiso Festival in Washington, and each time I see you perform live I'm even more impressed. What do you have in store for your fans in Arizona at Axis Radius? Are you bringing your MC with you?
R3hab: I have a lot of surprises in store and I don't wanna let on too much but it is going to be great! Lot's of new music, lot's of visuals and chainsaw madness!!
AFM: Chainsaw madness?! You say that like it's a good thing…So we'll just assume it is! In 2012 you won the International Dance Music Award for Best Breakthrough Artist. What was that experience like, and what did it mean to you?
R3hab: It was great! I was really proud and happy because it was my first award ever, so when you win something for the first time it is really special.
AFM: You're known as one of the originators of Dutch House, a genre that Sidney Samson told us, isn't a genre at all. He said it's just "the type of music Chuckie was playing in dutch clubs back in the late 90's and early 2000's." Do you agree with him? Would you describe your sound as 'Dutch House'?
AFM: You have an awesome radio show on Sirius XM called "I NEED R3HAB." When, where, and how can fans tune in to listen to it?
AFM: We'll Be Coming Back (R3hab EDC NYC Remix) was one of my favorite tracks of 2012…but was never officially released…Will it ever see the light of day?
R3hab: It's not up to me, the record label owns the masters so we have to see what they will do with it. A lot of dj's been playing it anyway, if you look on the Internet at least you can find it.
AFM: 2012 was a huge year for you, what can your fans expect in 2013? Any special events or releases?
R3hab: Yeah, this year is going to be huge: lots of original productions, new remixes, working on my album and I'm going on a tour around the world.
AFM: Thank you so much for taking the time to sit down with us and chat about music! Any final words for you fans in Arizona?
R3hab: Follow me on Facebook and Twitter, enjoy 2013 with great parties and I will see you all the 9th of March!

ASAM Level 3.3: Clinically Managed Medium Intensity Services
March 13, 2018 | by Eric Lapp | Treatment Programs
Last updated on September 18th, 2020 at 01:57 pm
Intensive therapy is one of the hallmarks of this level of treatment.
You wouldn't treat a severe cut with a bandage.
It's the same way with addiction. But many people have the mistaken belief that all it takes to treat addiction is a quick detox. After that, it's just a matter of choosing not to use.
The truth is that addiction is a complex disease that changes the brain. The more advanced the addiction is, the higher level of care that's needed.
ASAM Levels of Care
The way things used to be done, there was no standardized way of determining what level of treatment was right for those battling addiction.
That all changed in the 1980s when a national set of guidelines for care went into effect. The goal? To be able to provide each person with individualized, results-oriented treatment, based on his or her specific set of circumstances, including the likelihood of withdrawal, health history, possible mental health issues, readiness to change and living environment.
The result is the ASAM Criteria. (ASAM stands for American Society of Addiction Medicine.)
The Criteria consists of five broad levels of care, with 0.5 (early intervention) being the least intense and 4 (medically managed intensive inpatient services) being the most.
Here, we're going to talk about level 3.3
ASAM Level 3.3
ASAM Level 3.3 is what's called Clinically Managed Medium Intensity Residential Services. It offers a range of services in a 24-hour treatment setting.
The kind of treatment offers daily clinical services, including counseling and clinical monitoring.
You won't just be detoxing from drugs or alcohol (although that is an important component). You'll also be learning how to manage life without substance abuse.
The ultimate goal of rehab, after all, is to reclaim your life and to go forward with the skills and tools you need to face the future—both the good and the bad.

The top color trends for 2012 seem inspired by a lifestyle trend toward minimizing and simplifying to a more holistic, eco-friendly and relaxing mode of living. If you're looking to boost your home's curb appeal and resale value, a fresh coat of paint in a hue that communicates these sentiments will help.
This year's most popular colors primarily fall in to the blues, greens and neutrals categories. Blue-based colors are reminiscent of clean, running water, an element essential to life and good health. They convey a relaxed, refreshed feeling and range from faded denim to 1960s retro turquoise to deep indigo.
Greens, understandably, are popular among eco-conscious homeowners. Drawn from elements of an unspoiled landscape, they range from pale celery greens to funky avocado greens to darker mossy greens. Tone-on-tone layering is popular within this color group, creating sense of depth as if walking into a forest. Combining blue and yellow tones, greens covey a relaxing, purifying feeling.
Neutrals are a hit among those looking to simplify their lives by minimizing their surroundings. This means not only clearing clutter from their homes' interior, but giving their homes' exteriors a cleaner, more streamlined and versatile look. But contrary to conventional thinking, neutral need not equate to boring. Layering of neutral tones can create a little subtle drama. Plus, neutrals can be complemented by pops of color in your gardens and entryway decorations.
If it's time to give your home's exterior an updated look, call Dream Doors, Jacksonville's front door specialist. We can give your home's entryway a beautiful makeover with new colors accented by stylish glass inserts. Shop online or stop by our showroom in Jacksonville's Mandarin neighborhood.


We had become a community– The Fellowship Of The Last Bus. Every night we sat in silence as the ancient 911 crawled through the capital to the outskirts where our homes were.
Seats were fixed. The slender middle aged nurse sat beside the driver. the nurse's wife was from the driver's village so they called themselves 'In-law' but watching them laugh and gist in low conspiratorial tones, heads thrown back to savour spontaneous laughter, they could pass for twins.
In the middle were the business women, over dressed in fitting skirts and jackets. They were often on the phone, bellowing at an unseen customer to pay up or be dealt with. Sometimes they called their parents to find out how they were, sometimes they just placed their heads on the seats in front of them and fell asleep.
I sat at the back, last seat on the left, from there I watched the goings-on in the bus or let my eyes wander, through the windows I watched men peddle fruit and cigarettes, women push wheel barrows full of sand, and little children shepherd cows across hills.
Sometimes I wore my ear phones and let music carry me away, but my eyes kept flipping open and I was at the back of the bus again.
She stood at the door for a second and everyone sort of paused. I saw the hesitation in her eyes and I wanted to smile at her or to beckon but I looked out of the window instead and counted tricycles.
I shook my head because no sounds were coming from my mouth. She smelled so good, like she just walked out of a scented shower and her pink toe nails looked coy against her cobalt blue sandals. I could hear my heart beating and I wasn't sure why. Sweat trickled down my armpit and I felt a little cold inside.
She got off at the next stop and I realised I didn't know her name so I got off some fifty meters later and took a tricycle to her stop.
We spent forty minutes driving in and out of side streets, but she was gone.
She didn't show up the next day, or the one after that. We had a few other newbies– a nun, a middle aged man with a large brown enveloped tucked under his arm who had come from Awka to petition against deductions in his pension, a honeymooning couple who snuggled so close together I feared they would fuse. After a week, I stopped looking.
"Around," she said, with a cryptic smile on her lips.
And that's how I met Endie, Ndifreke Isangedighi. I didn't know this then but we would stay friends for life, through jobs and transfers, through weddings and a divorce. We would quit the last bus community, buy cars and have drivers. But everytime a large corporate bus would drive past me after work hours, I would find myself in the bus again re-learning the simple art of making friends.


Notice holes in nearly everything, except my peanut butter jar.
If you ask us at this point in our trip, we would likely say the same as those who came before us. As a person who had never been south of the United States border with Mexico before November 2015, this trip has been eye-opening in more ways than I'll ever be able to explain. This blog is going to focus on my (and our) experience getting new gear in and to South America.
Fidgit and I were able to purchase in the US and bring down much of what we needed our first season (November '15 – April '16). The only issue we had was with socks and shoes – we went through multiple pairs each. Thankfully we were in Chile most of our first season, and were able to find and purchase overpriced-but-will-do-the-job-this-time shoes. We were also able to send ourselves gear via the Chilean bus system – which is oddly reliable. Okay, not so odd once you understand that many people don't own cars down here.
Where we ran into trouble with getting gear was near the middle of our second season (season two spans November '16 – November '17).
On my way to get the gear, looking out the bus window.
As we neared northern Argentina in April, we were attempting to find someone who was willing to bring down some US gear for us, as we had once again purchased not great shoes and socks in Santiago to tide us over while we figured out what our options were. We decided to reach out to see if sending it to ourselves or finding someone to bring it was preferable – all our resources leaned towards finding someone to bring it down, because the tariffs we would have to pay in Argentina would be exorbitant, and that's IF the gear made it through customs. So we reached out to people we know who travel to and from the US with some regularity, and found a willing friend.
Unfortunately, after we had begun ordering and mailing new gear to an address in the states, unforeseen circumstances forced our friend to cancel his trip. Thankfully, we were at a spot where we had regular and useful wifi (not the norm in most countries down here, though it is improving), so we began a new search for someone willing to bring our stuff down. Fortunately, we've met many people, and our old gear mule was quickly replaced by our new one, Dan. He was heading back to my home state, and we immediately began re-routing items to my sister's house in Pennsylvania to be picked up and hauled down to Peru by Dan. Why would we ask a person who's technically three countries away to bring us our gear, you ask? DESPERATION. The nights were getting colder, my sleeping bag was wearing out, as were my shoes, socks, pants, shirts, you name it. Also, three countries away is much closer than multiple continents away. So Dan gathered the gear from my sister and brought it down to Peru, where I met him to catch up and retrieve it after approximately two days on buses and two border crossings. We met in Tacna, Peru – a border town with cheap, tax-free goods. Dan and I met up with his travel partner Justin, and we got a hostel room, as we would be there a couple days – I hadn't seen these guys since Santiago and wanted to catch up.
Dan, me, Justin. The lovely lads who helped us out (and me)!
Dan, Justin and I were able to spend a couple days together before they continued northward, and I made my way back towards Argentina with new gear for Fidgit and me. This is where most of my trouble began, and I'll put these hurdles in list form, as there were many.
-At the Peru/Chile border, the Chilean border patrol was staging a 'slow down.' Since they can't close the border, the were only allowing so many people through per hour. I waited for five hours in a line in the sun to get through, feeling bad for the people who arrived after me.
-Arriving to the bus station in Arica, I find the pass I need to cross to get back into Argentina is closed due to snow and high winds. Thankful I had made it across mere days before a blowing snowstorm, I was now fretting as to when I would make it back across into Argentina.
-Impatiently waiting out a far-away snow storm at a 4,000+ meter pass wears on me, so I spend only two days in Arica before deciding to bus up to San Pedro de Atacama – closer to the pass. Bus goes through Catamarca and I am warned of theives so I keep a close, but tired eye on my belongings after a night bus through a 4 am checkpoint from Arica to Catamarca. Make the bus to San Pedro and am told the pass will reopen Wednesday (it was Sunday).
-Buy bus ticket Tuesday for Wednesday morning, and the moment of truth arrives – I get on the bus and we go to the edge of town and sit for two hours to see if the pass is open. It's not, and I dejectedly return to my hostel. The bus driver says we will try again in the morning.
-Thursday morning, 8 am. I arrive at the bus station, get on the bus, and we once again drive to the edge of town and sit, waiting until 11 am. I see two garbage trucks, one dump truck and one bulldozer pass. I believe they are going to help clear the snow across the road, and concern enters my brain. 11 am rolls around and . . . the pass is open! We trundle up and up into the snow, then down to the Argentina/Chile border. The Chilean border guards seem to not be as slow at this border, and I am grateful our bus makes it through.
The cabbie in Chile -they love The Simpsons down here.
-We careen down the other side of the pass into Argentina, with a steep series of S-curves along the way, carefully executed by the driver of the double-decker bus, and I am finally able to contact Fidgit at the Jujuy bus station to let her know I'll be in Salta around 11 pm. Taxi to where Fidgit is staying with no fewer than three stops by the cab driver to make sure the address I've given him is really there.
Made it back to the Chile/Argentina Border!
Reunited, and with new gear!
Keep your chin up girls!
Am following you with such admiration.
Thank you, Amjad. Your encouragment means more than you know.
Halo muy brave girls. I feel so blessed I had the pleasure to spend those great and enjoyable days in Mendoza with you. I admire you every day a bit more. God Blessed you!!!!
Thank you, Rosalia, and thank you for continuing to follow our journey. We too cherish that time together.
Great write up, but I want to hear more about this Dan character seems like a real winner.
He's pretty much a folk hero around these parts.
Your patience and determination is immeasurable. Fantastic posts and pictures. Following your trip northward with great interest.
When do you expect to finish the 2017 leg of your journey? and where?
Our goal.is to make it to Machu Picchu bt the end of November, then take a few months to return to the US to rest, gear yp, and avoid the rainy season down here.


I wasn't fooling around, everything's true that I say.
So take me seriously, darlin', please just take me.
About this love that's real.
Is it surprising I'm romanticizing about the way I feel.
I wasn't playing a game, I'm not a kid anymore.
I'm not the clown that's just here to amuse you.
I wasn't fooling around, it wasn't like that at all.
So take me seriously, darlin' please just take me.

He Did $1 Million In Sales In The First Week Of Business And His Startup Is Now Worth $1 Billion
BingoTraders	on 24 Jun 2019
Andrew Dudum has played a role in 12 plus companies, raised hundreds of millions of dollars in the process, and has created a venture producing machine. What is he up to now?
Starting, scaling and selling just one company is a feat of a lifetime for most. It's definitely worthy of applause. Create two, three or four startups and you're a success by virtually any benchmark. This serial founder is a machine when it comes to startups. Even more stunning given he took a leave from college early on to pursue his career.
Andrew Dudum recently appeared as a guest on the DealMakers Podcast. During the exclusive interview, he shared his journey, what he has learned about success patterns in entrepreneurship, product-market fit, taking an unconventional approach to marketing, and many more topics.
Andrew Dudum was born and raised in San Francisco. While he always knew he didn't want to have a boss, his early life was consumed with music. As a cellist, he toured America and Europe, played at Carnegie Hall and hundreds of concerts and weddings.
Clearly, creativity is an incredible asset when it comes to entrepreneurship. Yet, he wanted to balance that out with business fundamentals, strategic thinking, and knowledge of finance. So, he headed off to The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
It was there at just 19 years old that Andrew Dudum launched his first project, LendforPeace. The micro-lending platform, which funded small business loans from $200 to $2,000 primarily in the Middle East, eventually blended with Kiva.org.
Kiva is now the largest lender in this space and is out there making a difference. The experience taught him a lot about building a scalable and sustainable business.
Dropping Out & Surviving an Exit
Andrew found he was spending so much time with other creators, trying to get them to skip class to build things (more time doing that than actually going to class), so he decided to take a leave from Wharton after his second year.
That gave him the chance to go work for Sequoia portfolio company TokBox, an early live video platform to power companies like YouTube.
TokBox offered Andrew an incredible learning experience on how to build a high-growth business, bring things to market, and use analytics.
TokBox was acquired by Telefónica
Acquisitions can be an emotional rollercoaster both as an owner and employee. The one main piece of advice that Andrew says he likes to give all friends who are going through this process is to be patient and to be open-minded to whatever the outcome might be.
Acquisitions are big. They involve the merging of cultures, the merging of companies, the merging of processes.
Realistically it takes time to figure out whether or not those entities are going to be able to work together well, and how they're going to find synergies. Be patient, watch how it unfolds, and be a part of the process of making it successful.
Building a Startup Producing Machine
Some of Andrew's other friends from Wharton had also built companies and sold them to large companies during this time. So, they banded together to bring the best operators, builders of technology and startups under one roof, and couple them with the best investors. They created Atomic.
The thing about successful investors is that they have incredible pattern recognition. They've gone through the process of funding, helping, advising, restructuring, and hiring for startups countless times.
When you bring together operators who have built and scaled companies before and put them in the same room as investors who have funded and advised dozens of companies, you should be able to build a much better system for bringing enduring, scalable brands to market.
So far Atomic has raised close to $600 million to fuel those efforts, from investors such as Silicon Valley legend, Peter Thiel. For a winning deck, take a look at the pitch deck template created by Peter Thiel (see it here) that I recently covered. Thiel was the first angel investor in Facebook with a $500K check that turned into more than $1 billion in cash.
Andrew's top ingredients for a successful startup:
Creativity and big markets you can't stop thinking about
An emotional, meaningful story that is very easy to understand
A proprietary growth strategy
Of course, you also need product-market fit. Andrew says you know you've found a special idea when people come across your idea and put their purchasing power behind it.
What it Looks Like When You Get it Right
His latest ventures, Hims & Hers are a clear example of what it looks like when you get product-market fit right.
The brands offer a modern approach to health and wellness by eliminating stigmas and making it easier for people to access care as well as treatment for the conditions that impact their daily lives.
Hims did a million in sales in the first week of the business operation. That was the smallest week in sales to date. Every month, the acceleration continues to grow, making it one of, if not the fastest growing consumer brand from a revenue standpoint.
In just over a year they've raised over $200 million in funding. Their investors include Thrive Capital, Forerunner Ventures, SV Angel, Redpoint, Founders Fund, IVP, Cherubic Ventures, 8VC, Maverick Ventures andUphonest Capital.

Motherwell taxi driver raises £3000 for Yorkhill Hospital
A LANARKSHIRE taxi driver has raised almost £3000 for charity by getting on his bike.
Alastair McNeill
Gary Parsons began training for the annual Pedal for Scotland cycle between Glasgow and Edinburgh earlier this year.
The 46-year-old got involved in the event to raise cash for Glasgow's Yorkhill Hospital.
He explained: "I know someone who has a daughter in Yorkhill and it was a charity I wanted to support."
Gary, who lives in Motherwell, completed the 51-mile cross-country route in four-and-a-half hours.
He raised a total of £2852, with many of the larger donations coming from Lanarkshire businesses.
Gary hopes to take part again next year.
He said: "I trained for six months for the event. However, it's not a race; you can take as long as you like.
"Most people do the cycle for Maggie's cancer centres but I decided to do it for Yorkhill.
"Local businesses said they would give me donations of £500 to £600 if I did it in fancy dress, which I was very happy to do."

Negima! Vol 22 (Ch 202) *SPOILERS*
魔法先生 ネギま!Volume 22 Chapter 202
SPOILER Summary: Jack Rakan briefly discusses the situation in the Magic World which lead to the formation of Ala Rubra, led by Negi's father Nagi, who was only 14. He talks about how Nagi was his rival. Chisame isn't that interested, but Negi is. However, Jack tells him that to learn more of his past, Negi will have to pay 1-million for every 10-minutes Jack speaks. Chisame asks Jack if he was supposed to meet them at the gateport. He says that he was as Takamichi had told him Nagi's son was coming, but it was too much trouble to come and the name of the city was too long. In the end, Negi ended up coming to him.
Jack asks Negi to punch him in the stomach, stating that if it wasn't strong enough, Jack wouldn't even bother training Negi. Further, he wants Negi to hit him with the finishing move he used in the arena. Chisame is stunned by this, knowing the power of the move despite herself. Negi complies and hits him with the Oukahouken attack. Chisame still is amazed at the amount of power from the attack and Negi is amazed when Jack is still standing as if untouched. However, he soon vomits a lot of blood and instinctively punches Negi into the sky because Negi's punch hurt.
After both recover, Jack is amused to learn that Negi has been training under Eva, though it explains a great deal to him. As such, he tells Negi he'll train him. He wants to know why Negi wants to get stronger. Negi has the usual answers such as wanting to protect the others and his father, but Jack suspects something else. Negi concedes that he wants to defeat Fate Auverruncus, whom he has come up against twice. The name is known to Jack, though he hadn't heard it in a while. For 1-million, he'll tell Negi the whole story.
Jack sets up a chalk board to show where Negi is in power, Chisame rated a 1 — bottom of the barrel. Magic school grads rate about 100 and a D-rank. An army tank rates about 200. Magic teachers and the like, a B-rank and rate 30. Negi is in an A-rank, rating about 500. A non-magical dragon is 650. Kagetarou is too. An Aegis Heavy Cruiser is 1500. Takamichi figures to be about 2000. Fate, with a AAA-rank, comes in with a 3000 rating. As such, it is impossible for Negi to beat Fate under normal terms. However, there are unapproved ways that Negi could use to possibly defeat Fate. One is a forbidden technique created by Eva hundreds of years ago.
Elsewhere, a head-bandaged Yue is greated by a humanoid girl her age named Colette. Colette invites Yue to dinner but Yue passes, wanting to spend time researching in the library. While she knows her name, she remembers little else and holds the Ala Alba badge, wondering what it means.
Thoughts: One day, I'm going to have to research where the Japanese come up with their ranking system. I first noticed it in Yu Yu Hakusho, where youkai were given class ranks as was Urameshi and company as they got stronger. Lately, the ranking system has come to life in Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS. Regardless, it was interesting to see where Negi stands as far as power goes.
It was nice to see Yue again, though she has no memories. She's dressed as a witch so likely folks don't pay her any mind, especially with amnisia.

Incredible as it sounds in this digital age, for many industries print and postage is still the only way to get legally critical documents moved around.
The ease with which digital communications can be edited means that in many industries, original print copies are still required by post for security reasons.
This reliance on paper leads to huge inefficiencies. But with digital documents companies are often left in doubt as to whether they are looking at the final draft, if invoices have been paid and whether orders are real or fraudulent.
That's where Ferrari electronic's Next Generation Document Exchange (NGDX) comes in. It promises to provide completely secure and verifiable digital document exchange on the basis of the latest ITU standards combined with blockchain, the technology behind cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin.
Blockchain is a shared digital ledger, which ensures that every transaction is publicly logged and verified.
In the case of documents, it means that if a single character is changed on the verified version then all the other nodes (or computers) in the chain would be notified.
Efficiency – use of secure digital documents saves time for every business involved.
The blockchain never includes the document itself. It merely provides hash values, or check sums, generated against the document that proves it has not been tampered with.
Transmission begins as soon as the receiving system confirms it is capable of receiving the document. Groupware is used to show all relevant information when a document was transmitted via NGDX.
NGDX logs confirmation of a successful delivery and then retains a log of the document to ensure it has not changed.
From a legal point of view, NGDX offers unambiguous proof that documents have been sent and received and not tampered with.
This technology also simplifies the archiving process for invoices, contracts, receipts and other documents within Business Process Management systems.
Ferrari electronic worked with strategic partner Cryptowerk to combine its NGDX with blockchain technology.
There is almost no sector of the economy where legally secure document exchange will not bring huge benefits and efficiencies.
The solution will be available in early 2019.

New headteacher for Welsh language school
Caer Elen in Haverfordwest gets new headteacher
By George Thompson @WT_GeorgeT Reporter
Ysgol Caer Elen
A new Headteacher has been appointed for Ysgol Caer Elen, the Welsh-language 3-16 school in Haverfordwest.
Mr Dafydd Hughes was appointed by the school's governing body following the announcement that Mr Michael Davies (the Executive Headteacher) was to retire at the end of the Christmas term.
Dafydd began his teaching career as a Welsh and Humanities teacher at Ysgol Dyffryn Taf, Whitland in 1992.
Dafydd Hughes the new head at Caer Elen
During his time at the school he completed responsibilities as Head of Department, Head of House and Head of Professional Learning.
He was appointed as Assistant Headteacher at Ysgol y Preseli in 2009 where he has enjoyed working with all stakeholders in order to secure Ysgol y Preseli's place as one of the top performing schools in Wales.
'It is a privilege to have been appointed as Headteacher at Ysgol Caer Elen," he said.
"I am looking forward to working with pupils, staff, parents, Governors and the local community to ensure that Ysgol Caer Elen continues to grow and develop into a school that we can all be proud of.
"My first task will be to guide the school community safely through this difficult period created by Covid-19. Helping pupils to 'catch up' and to make progress is a priority. Let us hope that 2021 brings a new optimism to us all.
"My aim ultimately is to ensure that the school provides purposeful learning opportunities and varied extracurricular activities in a supportive environment which will enable all learners to fulfil their potential.
"I want pupils from Ysgol Caer Elen to leave the school as confident, caring and compassionate individuals."
Originally from Whitland, Dafydd received his education at Ysgol Gynradd Hendy Gwyn, Ysgol Bro Myrddin and Aberystwyth University.
He now resides in Carmarthen and is married with three children.

Together with a group of students we visited the city of Chemnitz for four days.
Chemnitz, known as Karl-Marx-Stadt from 1953-1990 in the GDR is the third largest city in Saxony, Germany. Because the city center was bombed down in WW2 and heavily destroyed, the GDR redeveloped it according to the idea of a socialistic modern city. The original plans where however not completed.
Today the center is defined by shopping malls next to historic buildings and socialist modern architecture.

Eminences,
Dear Brother Alois,
Dear Brothers of the Community,
For many years now we have felt the desire to come to Taizé, the seat of a spiritual ecumenism, a melting-pot of reconciliation, a meeting-place that, following the extraordinary vision of Brother Roger, its founder, inspires Christians to come together.
If this is the first time that an Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople visits your community—we are particularly pleased that this opportunity has been offered to us—Taizé's ties with the Ecumenical Patriarchate go back a long way. Indeed, as early as 1962, Brother Roger had first visited the late Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras at Constantinople. Brother Roger quickly became a heart-brother of Orthodoxy, as the ecumenical mission he wished to bear largely embraced all the families of Christianity, each according to its own identity. We believe that to this day you have preserved the icon that the Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras entrusted to him. This icon of the Mother of God represents not only the spirit of fraternity that we are trying to make grow in the shadow of the protection of our common Mother, the Virgin Mary, but, more generally, the perspective in which our prayer in favor of the unity of Christians is situated. As if to mark the unbreakable link between Taizé and Orthodoxy, on April 15, 1963, the first stone of an Orthodox chapel was laid at Taizé, confirming with this gesture the immutable presence of Eastern Christianity within these walls.
You, dear Brother Alois, have faithfully summed up this beautiful tradition that unites us. We remember with emotion receiving you at Phanar twelve years ago on the feast of the Nativity of our Lord. On that occasion we were able to show you our strong attachment to the meetings of young people which you regularly organize at the turn of each year, as if to testify that the passage of time inexorably brings together divided Christians by allowing them to progress together on the way of unity . Every year, you do us the honor of conveying our message to the participants of the European meetings. We are particularly happy to be able to address these young European Christians who, for a few days, experience, even imperfectly, the communion to which we aspire. Did not Brother Roger like to say: "Christ did not come to earth to start a new religion, but to offer every human being a communion in God."? Let us also mention the pilgrimages of trust on earth which form an important part of your ecumenical work.
Today you are receiving us in this beautiful Church of Reconciliation. The theme of reconciliation is central to Christianity and in our opinion we must distinguish three levels of reading. The first level is the relationship of the reconciliation of the human with the divine. The work of Christ in the world is a work of reconciliation that goes beyond religion in that it links vertically and horizontally the Creator and creatures. Reconciliation in Christ places him at the center of what humankind accomplishes as an image of God and in a dynamic relationship of resemblance. Christ is reconciliation. Remember the words of the Holy Apostle Paul: "For it was God who in Christ reconciled the world to himself, not imputing people's sins to them, and putting the word of reconciliation in us." (2 Corinthians 5:19) It is interesting to note that Saint Paul, in the preceding verse, speaks of a "ministry of reconciliation." (2 Cor 5:18) Reconciliation is the yardstick by which we must measure our communion with God and our unity in the Church.
The second level stems directly from the "ministry of communion" that we have just mentioned. In fact, it is more ecumenical. It responds to the commitment to Christian unity in which the reconciliatory action we have to undertake takes its place. If we were to use only one image, we would use that of healing. To reconcile is above all to heal the evils of history, the scars of time, mutual misunderstandings, conflicts of memory, fratricidal hatreds. In this sense, the division between Christians to which we intend to respond by praying for the unity of the Churches is a spiritual wound, with shared responsibilities—whether accepted or not. Indeed, in the ecumenical era and at the time of the search for unity, there can be no reconciliation without forgiveness. Besides, for St. John Chrysostom, reconciliation cannot be put off. If we want to be true actors of reconciliation, we must assume our responsibilities and be ready to take the first step.
The third level, on the other hand, is more global. The love of Christ, the very man who urges us towards this reconciliation, encompasses all humanity. Reconciliation becomes an agent of peace, a lever to overcome historical antagonisms, a means of neutralizing the polarizations of the global social landscape and defusing conflicts. Reconciliation is therefore a global issue for our Churches and for the world at large. Let us quote this beautiful Lutheran-Catholic text, "From Conflict to Communion", which, at this time of commemoration of the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, perfectly accounts for the spiritual and ecumenical path that the principle of "reconciliation" involves . "The ecumenical commitment to the unity of the Church does not only benefit the Church, but also the world, so that the world may believe. The more our societies become pluralistic in terms of religions, the greater the missionary task of ecumenism. Here again it is necessary to rethink things and to repent." (Para. 243)
The challenge of reconciliation goes beyond the historical event that the Orthodox Church experienced during the Holy and Great Council meeting in Crete in June 2016. It was indeed not only a matter of studying the themes on the agenda, however important they may have been, but of dealing with the reality and the place of Orthodoxy as a whole in the contemporary world. In an age of globalization, the Orthodox Church must be able to equip itself with the tools to meet the challenges posed by modernity. The Holy and Great Council was a pivotal event, for it was at the same time an ecclesial phenomenon of communion, which manifests the unity of all Orthodoxy—this unity was not questioned by the autocephalic Orthodox Churches which did not participate because of the theological principle of catholicity—and the absolute necessity of a conciliar experience on a planetary level. Conciliarity, although traditional in Orthodoxy at local and regional levels, remains to be (re)discovered today on a global scale. We therefore thank God for the Holy and Great Council and hope that it is simply the starting-point of the renewed exercise of conciliarity as a synonym for the life of the Church. As we can read in the Message of the Holy and Great Council: "The Orthodox Church expresses its unity and its catholicity in the Council. Its conciliarity shapes its organization, the way in which it makes decisions and determines its destiny."
In order to understand what Taizé represents for the Orthodox Church, let us turn to Olivier Clement for a moment. In his beautiful work Taizé: a Meaning to Life, the Orthodox theologian did not regard Taizé as a community in the institutional sense; it is also, and perhaps first of all, an event. The "Taizé event" crystallizes, according to him, the aspirations of youth in search of being, in search of belief, in search of life. The "Taizé event" acts as a powerful parable of conversion and reconciliation, focusing on the inner life that allows us to enter into the mystery of unity while fully subscribing to the life of the world. Olivier Clement wrote in particular: "Prayer does not free us from the tasks of this world: it makes us even more responsible. Nothing is more responsible than to pray."
These words resound with power in the Orthodox tradition and lead us to deepen the meaning of reconciliation through the mystery of the resurrection. The liturgical time in which we find ourselves invites us to this all the more strongly, since here we touch the roots of the mystery of the Christian faith. Saint Irenaeus of Lyons wrote: "But in fact, through the communion we have with him, the Lord has reconciled man with the Father, reconciling us to himself by his body of flesh and redeeming us by his blood...." (Adv. Haer, V, 14, 3)
By his death and resurrection, Christ reconciled us to God. As we sing the Easter hymns, Eastern and Western Christians together, let us continue to pray that the light of the resurrection will lead us on the path of unity and communion.
Thank you for having us here today.
Hannah prayed in these words: My heart rejoices in the Lord and in his deliverance. There is no Holy One like the Lord, no Rock like our God.

Ask just about anyone what the most important key to development is in Cambodia and they will answer education. Regardless of what sector you are referring to, be it agriculture, medicine, business, law or even human rights and personal freedom, their improvement are all very much dependant on improved education.
Education requires a lot of things: learning materials, facilities, engaged and supportive parents, and most importantly, good teachers. While many young Cambodians do not view teaching as a highly attractive or lucrative profession, teachers have historically been held in high social standing in the Kingdom, and it is for their contribution to students in the past, present and future that we honour them with our 11th issue of Lift. Without teachers we could not learn, and without learning we cannot lift Cambodia for our generation and for generations to come.
We hope that by reading about some of the country's best high school teachers (page 4), and getting some advice from a college professor (page 5), we might inspire some of you to look into teaching yourself, and if not, at least appreciate the contribution that teachers, in and out of school, have made to your life. We also take a look at the work being done in some of the country's private schools, which may eventually change primary education throughout Cambodia.
Check out the back of the issue for other young people's memories of their favourite teachers – and send a brief message about your favourite teacher on our Facebook page or send an email to [email protected] and we will publish your comments in our issue next week.


Hi, this is the full package with a regular size (up to 6'3") yellow 3 layer sleeping bag system plus compression bag storage system. I paid over £250 for this lot in 2016, plus £27 postage! Used for one leg last year and has all been professional cleaned and stored in a pet free and smoke free home since.
No major sailing adventures planned imminently so looking to sell. I've just inspected all the items very closely and I cannot find a blemish. Grab yourself a bargain.
I live very close to Clipper HQ in Gosport so I'm happy to drop this item there once payment is received so you can collect when you come for one of your clipper training weeks. Other postage/delivery/collection options can also be discussed.
