What our NED Accelerator® Programme graduates say
NEDonBoard plays a crucial role in helping hundreds of professionals along with their journeys at board level. Here is what some of our NED Accelerator Programme graduates thought of their non-executive director training.
Recruiting non-executive directors is a challenging task for boards – there's a lot of choice. It's a given that NEDs need to have the right skill set, knowledge and experience, particularly for the more technical board matters such as audit and risk. Beyond that, it's about chemistry and perceived fit with the rest of the board, which require a high degree of targeted preparation and emotional intelligence to be utilised through the recruitment process.
This programme prepares already proven business leaders to secure and perform future NED roles with confidence. The combination of technical content - governance codes, legal responsibilities and protections - combined with a wealth of practical advice from a range of experienced NEDs, will make participants stand out from the competition.
Michael Bartholomeusz
Portfolio NED, Chair and former Chief Risk Officer
I really appreciated the grounding in the basics combined with the personal experience of a diverse group of directors, all within one easily accessible programme. I'd say take the programme while you're still deciding whether to go for NED roles. Take it again as you start applying. And keep referring back to the modules once you're on a board.
David Landsman
Chair, NED and Adviser. Previously senior Executive and British Ambassador
I have obtained 2 roles through NEDonBoard which is great. I like what they do - I am a fan and would recommend them to others.
Graeme Allinson
Portfolio NED, chair and graduate of the NED Accelerator Programme
A good CV shows that you're ready to become a NED – but understanding what it takes to be truly prepared for your first role is difficult.
I can fully recommend the NED Accelerator Programme; it's a one-stop source to help you transition from an operating exec to an effective non-executive director. It doesn't just cover the dry textbook responsibilities, but also gives you practical and relevant content, and helps you avoid the pitfalls many fall into as you transition into non-exec roles.
As a result, you'll be able to create a high-impact CV, be clear on what's expected from you, and what your obligations are. It will not only help you win interviews and new roles; it sets you up for success.
Sonia Whiteley-Guest
Chief Marketing Officer, Founder, CEO and aspiring NED
The NED Accelerator Programme encourages you to look, think and apply yourself specifically to the NED role rather than the broader role of Director.
A useful platform through which to access a variety of NED focused resources. Anyone keen to avoid getting stuck in the weeds when looking to secure their first NED appointment would find this programme beneficial.

Who is the course aimed at?

The online course is self-paced, so you can move through the materials at a speed that's right for you. The length of our videos varies between 10 to 30 minutes, totalling over 5 hours of high-quality, relevant and actionable content. Homework will be completed throughout the programme, including the definition of your value proposition, identification of the boards you should target and execution of your NED CV. To reinforce these learnings, you will also receive a soft copy of the guide "What to Expect of the NED role" guide and access the downloadable summary sheets. You should allow a minimum of 10 hours to complete the course, potentially more if you have not updated your CV for a while.

NED Accelerator Programme vs NEDonBoard membership? Or both?

How to become a non-executive director?
The NED Accelerator Programme gives you the necessary knowledge, skills, tools, and strategies to win interviews and prepare for non-executive director and board member roles. NEDonBoard has distilled their experience as the UK professional body to create a comprehensive, essential, self-paced and completely online programme that will fast-track you to the board room.
Who can be a non-executive director?
When boards look to appoint a non-executive director, they are looking for the candidate to have a diverse range of skills and knowledge so that they can contribute to the sustainable success of their organisation. Anyone who has held a senior executive position, consulted with boards or developed an expertise and skills that are transferable, can fast-track their progression and become board-ready and appointable by taking the NED Accelerator Programme.
What are the benefits of being a non executive director?
Non-executive directors enjoy a host of benefits, including:
Independence and flexibility in their career
Learning new skills
Broadening their network
Living varied and new experiences
Fast-tracking their executive careers
Contributing their skills, experience and expertise
Generating additional income
What does a non executive director do?
Sitting on the main board, the role of the non-executive director is to challenge, question and monitor the CEO and senior management; bringing an independent perspective to decision-making. As well as holding senior management to account, they also support and mentor the CEO. Non-executive directors are a "critical friend" and must always act in the interests of the company's stakeholders.
The NED Accelerator Programme will give you an in-depth understanding of the NED and the differences between the role of the non-executive director and the executive director.
A portfolio career is a way of working that can incorporate multiple roles across different fields. The beauty of being a non-executive director is that you can pick and choose the roles that suit your lifestyle, all whilst continuing your professional development.
How many days does a non executive director work?
The amount of work can vary widely, from 4 days per year to 1 to 2 days per week. The time commitment of the non-executive director role is indicated in the role specification. Before applying to a vacancy, ensure that you have the availability to perform the role, acknowledging that at times, you may be required to spend more time, when there is a crisis, for example. A non-executive role is not just for when you are in the boardroom.
How much is a non-executive director salary?
A non-executive director salary varies greatly depending on the role, size of the organisation, sector and industry. The time commitment (a couple of days per week, per month or per quarter?) and responsibilities including being a member of a sub-committee of the board, being the SID, the chair of the board or of a board committee are also factors. Professionals taking on charity trustee roles are typically unpaid, whereas FTSE 100 NED can expect £70k. Public appointments and commercial NED roles attract a remuneration, starting from a few thousand, up to a level commensurate with listed companies.
Is the course suitable to gain an executive director position?
You will receive access to all the programme videos, bonus materials, downloadable summary sheets and publications, NED CV example and template. You will also receive the widely read NEDonBoard community newsletter. Even after you complete the programme, you will be able to access course materials, including future additions and improvements. The NEDonBoard membership is not included in the price of the NED Accelerator Programme.
What is included in the price?
Can I get my company or employer to pay for the programme?
This will depend on the individual company. Most will have a training budget to support the professional development of employees and staff retention, so it's worth having a conversation with your manager or HR director. When discussing the possibility of them covering the cost, we recommend you present the following programme information and benefits:
Comprehensive course curriculum
Experienced course leaders
Online and at your own pace to avoid business disruption
Skills developed on the course
CPD credits associated with the programme
Programme delivered by a professional body and institute
Once you've received confirmation from your company, you'll need to work out a payment plan. Consider whether they will pay upfront, or if you will purchase the programme and send a receipt for reimbursement.
If you are an organisation looking to train and certify multiple senior executives or professionals at your company, then we have special pricing for five professionals or more. Please email [email protected] for information.
How does payment for the NED Accelerator Programme work?
We offer two options: pay the full investment upfront, or pay in instalments over a period of two months. We work with Stripe, so your payment is handled securely.
VAT applies to the cost of the course.

Some pet stores purchase puppies locally from breeders who produce a couple of litters from a number of breeds every year.

On 24-25 Jan 2019, investigators met in Bangkok to launch the Developing Triple Artemisinin-based Combination Therapies (DeTACT) Project. Led by MORU and funded by UKaid and the UK Department for International Development (DfID), DeTACT is a large, 14 site trial in 8 African and 5 Asian countries that will study the efficacy, safety and tolerability of two Triple Artemisinin Combination Therapy (TACT) combinations, using combinations of existing antimalarial drugs.
DeTACT will also project the impact of TACTs on controlling the spread or emergence of multi-drug-resistant P. falciparum malaria leading to its elimination, and examine the ethical and commercial considerations of using TACTs across the malaria endemic world.
DeTACT is particularly urgent: strains of P. falciparum malaria parasite highly resistant to artemisinins, our most effective antimalarial drugs, have rapidly spread out of Cambodia and across SE Asia. These malaria 'superbugs' have caused a large increase in treatment failures in malaria patients across the Greater Mekong Subregion, and if they emerge in Africa, put millions, especially children under 5, at risk.
The DeTACT trials will compare two widely used drug combinations (artemether-lumefantrine and arterolane-piperaquine) against two TACTs constituted of one additional drug added to each of these combinations (amodiaquine and mefloquine, respectively).
Based on preliminary results from the recently completed TRACII trials which recruited over 1,000 subjects with uncomplicated falciparum malaria, TACTs already appear to be safe and highly efficacious even against multi-drug resistant falciparum malaria currently prevalent in parts of SE Asia. Before such combinations can be recommended for more widespread use, especially in highly endemic regions of Africa where children are most affected by malaria, their safety and tolerability must be verified.
Stringent assessments to identify cardiac, hepatic, renal or bone marrow toxicity or other study drugs-related dysfunctions will be complemented by predictive mathematical modelling to analyse TACTs' costs and expected benefits and assess their potential to delay the emergence or spread of drug-resistant P. falciparum malaria.
At the meetings, investigators from the Africa and Asia study sites and researchers leading the complementary work packages and sub-studies presented plans to implement their studies and analyses.
The bioethics component of DeTACT will document patient, practitioner and policy maker views and attitudes on deploying TACTs. It will use focus groups and interviews to identify potential barriers to TACT acceptability and deployment and address ethical issues arising from introducing TACTs to treat African children where current ACT therapy is still efficacious. This work will be supplemented by assessments of the market positioning within and outside donor funded malaria services, and potential market uptake in different malaria epidemiological settings.
Dr Chanaki Amaratunga will jointly coordinate DeTACT with Dr Mehul Dhorda. Chanaki will coordinate the project and focus on the Asia trials and the complementary work packages, while Mehul will coordinate the Africa trials and related activities. DeTACT's 14 sites include 8 in Africa – the Gambia, Nigeria, Tanzania, Guinea, Niger, Malawi, Burkina Faso and DR Congo – and 6 in Asia – India (2), Cambodia, Bangladesh, Indonesia and Myanmar.
Dr Melanie Renshaw of the African Leaders Malaria Alliance will chair a project steering committee of representatives from the Asia-Pacific Leaders Malaria Alliance, WHO, malaria civil society organisations and academia that will advise the DeTACT management team as it implements activities to make TACTs available to malaria control and elimination campaigns worldwide.
DeTACT is the third of three DfID supported multi-country, multi-site trials (TRAC and TRACII) that have characterised artemisinin resistance and tested multi-drug resistant malaria treatments in SE Asia.

Q: Open a modal window on browser close? I'm trying to open a modal window when the browser window closes.
Is there a way to do this with window events? Thanks.

A: onbeforeunload is probably your best bet.

A: Short answer: no: Most browsers don't let you know when the browser is being closed.
See also:
Java Servlet : How to detect browser closing?
How capture event for browser closing in web applications?

A: You can execute whatever you need to with the onunload JavaScript event. I'd probably do a window.open rather than try to create a modal because I think the browser will still close. You could use the onbeforeunload event to show a modal confirming their action if that's what you're hoping to do.

Thousands dare to disrupt by turning up and tuning in to TEDxBristol
The tech and digital highlights from TEDxBristol, the biggest independent TED movement in the UK
Hundreds of Bristol's brightest minds, from students to entrepreneurs, local residents and the idea-curious descended on the Colston Hall in Bristol this week – along with thousands of remote viewers from around the world – to hear some of the most thought-provoking and disruptive speakers from the South West and beyond.
In its fifth year, the TEDxBristol festival, an independent take on TED's global concept of 'ideas worth sharing' – showcased 20 speakers over two days, breaking down barriers in tech, science and society, and challenging views on race, inequality, history, family and health.
You can check out just how broad the ideas that were shared in the video below:
Tied only to the broadest theme 'Dare to Disrupt', the audience was treated to everything from heartfelt stories of personal triumph to thought-provoking reflections on the actions of our society and challenges in the way we see the future.
Robots of the future
One such speaker, Charles Radclyffe (pictured left), set the tone on the morning of the first day with a talk on the future of artificial intelligence. Challenging the common fear that robots will 'steal all our jobs', he began his talk with the opening line: "The robot revolution is our chance to design the future we want".
He discussed the idea that money and human tradition trap us in a stalemate, and that allowing the automation of essential services, such as food production, would make them free – thus freeing up people to explore what really makes them 'tick'. He suggested: "When you take people out of the process, new possibilities emerge" and asked the audience to think about what they might do if they didn't have to rely on their job to define their life's purpose.
"I'm fascinated by the power of motion to trigger emotion"
Also speaking on the theme of robotics was David McGoran (pictured in main image above), the co-founder and artistic director of Bristol-based Rusty Squid, a robotics research studio that combines theatre and artistry with design and technology.
In his talk entitled 'How Avant-Garde Robots Will Help Us Survive This Century', David shared how he came to start challenging the traditional view of robotics as disembodied and logical. He told the audience: "I'm fascinated by the power of motion to trigger emotion. The physical nature of robotics offers an incredible way of engaging with people."
He shared some of his wacky and wonderful projects, including robotic hearts that, when held, beat in time with the heart of its users and the 'Book Hive' exhibition he worked on at the Bristol Central Library in which walls of animatronic books opened and closed in response to the movement of its viewers.
By showing how things could be done differently, David opened up the audience's mind to a world where the artist, designer and engineering worlds could truly come together to create the real technology of the future – and potentially the birth of a new creative industry in itself.
Showcasing innovation
As well as inspiring speakers, attendees were given plenty of opportunities to get involved in some of the disruptive projects and businesses in the South West, including TEDxBristol's live Mind Mapping, workshops on aiming to demystify artificial intelligence and of course the plentiful demos in the 'Innovation Zone'.
"We've had a great time… talking about what possibilities are out there for women who want to work in tech"
One company showing off in the Innovation Zone was Zubr – a small Bristol-based virtual and augmented reality design studio. It's packing a punch working with companies such as global cloud-solutions experts Oracle to design a 3D view of Bloodhound SSC – the lean speed machine that's set to top the world land speed record. Zubr is also building smart augmented reality (AR) binoculars that takes its users to Cardiff Bay to travel back in time, forward to the present and whizzing into the future – bringing both history and the potential for development in our landscapes to life.

army tank in a virtual reality demo from Zubr
Also showing off its latest tech was WizDish VR – the 'computer mouse' that lets you walk around virtual worlds and Nymbl, a Bristol-based studio specialising in 3D animation, motion graphics and VR.
Finally, daring to disrupt from an exhibition stand was Women's Tech Hub (WTH) Bristol, a not-for-profit organisation that's tackling the lack of women in science, technology, engineering and maths (pictured left), who were keen to interact and inspire local women and businesses to support this important movement.
Constance Fleuriot co-founder of WTH Bristol says: "We've had a great time meeting lots of new people and talking about what possibilities are out there for women who want to work in tech. There's been a great response from individuals and companies who want to engage with us. Not just because we gave them sweets and sold them our wtf t-shirts."
With some exciting new projects, events and schemes up their sleeves, the WTH message is spreading fast (and with such great t-shirts, it's no surprise).

Mary Doria Russell, Author Villard Books $23.95 (0p) ISBN 978-0-679-45635-3
Dreamers of the Day
A THREAD OF GRACE
The Sparrow
Epitaph: A Novel of the O.K. Corral
Russell follows her speculative first novel, The Sparrow, with a sequel that will please even readers new to her interplanetary missionaries. Having returned from a disastrous, 21st-century expedition to the planet Rakhat, Jesuit Father Emilio Sandoz, the sole survivor of the mission, faces public rage over the order's part in the war between the gentle Runa and the predatory Jana'ata--fury more than matched by the priest's own self-hatred and religious disillusionment. In the sequel, he is forced to return to Rakhat with a new expedition more interested in profits than prophets. When they discover the planet in turmoil and the Runa precariously in power, the temptation to interfere is more than they can withstand. As in her first book, Russell uses the entertaining plot to explore sociological, spiritual, religious, scientific and historical questions. Misunderstandings between cultures and people are at the heart of her story. It is, however, the complex figure of Father Sandoz around which a diverse interplanetary cast orbits, and it is the intelligent, emotional and very personal feud between Father Sandoz and his God that provides energy for both books. 50,000 first printing; BOMC selection; audio rights to Random House Audio; author tour.

1 in 7 people on Earth has an iPhone: Apple was successful in past decade
September 14, 2021 by Zeal
There were concerns when Tim Cook took over the helm of electronics company Apple from the critically ill founder Steve Jobs on August 24, 2011. But ten years later, he can present impressive letters of nobility. Did you know that 1 in 7 people on the planet now has an iPhone? And that Cook made Apple the most profitable company in the world? An overview.
"Possibly the most successful succession in the tech world," British business magazine The Economist unequivocally describes Cook's career. Moreover, purely financially, he did even better than his predecessor.
When he succeeded Steve Jobs, Apple had a market value of $349 billion. Today the company is worth 2.5 trillion or $2,500 billion, more than any other publicly-traded company ever. Annual sales rose from $108 billion in 2011 to $274 billion last year, and net profits more than doubled. It now stands at $57 billion, making Apple the most profitable company in the world.
Magic recipe
The magic recipe? Well, that consisted of several ingredients. For example, Cook realized that the smartphone drove the digitization of life. He, therefore, continuously pushed to improve the iPhone. Today, the device is a true supercomputer, of which more than a billion are used around the world. There is one for every seven people on Earth.
Cook also saw the potential of China for the production of its devices and as a market. And he understood the importance of the App Store in making his business even bigger. Its developers attracted users and vice versa, making it now the leading digital marketplace by revenue. There are now almost two million apps on it.
The environment is not forgotten either: by 2030, the company wants to be CO2 neutral. This will require relatively little effort and is very good for many users today.
The question is whether he will be able to maintain his success in the coming decade. In any case, it seems to be getting a lot harder, as many of the global trends that propelled Apple to mythical heights have since been reversed, according to The Economist.
The first challenge is figuring out how the company can grow quickly. Because the bigger you get, the harder it is. The iPhone is relatively stable for the time being, with sales of 200 million units last year. But that is already slightly lower than the 231 million of 2015.
The new products that Cook linked to the iPhone do bring in extra income. Last year, 200 million AirPods and 34 million Apple Watches were sold, blowing the direct competition out of the water.
The Apple Store and Apple Music brought in $65 billion in the last four quarters, a lot more than in 2011 (8 billion). At some point, however, Apple will have to have another major innovation of the caliber of the iPhone. And it doesn't look like the iGlasses or iCar will be.
One of the trump cards of recent years could also turn into a nuisance: China. This is where most Apple products are produced, and many are sold. Cook made a lot of concessions to the Chinese government to keep it that way – for example, he moved Chinese users' data centers to China so the government could control them – but tensions between China and the West are mounting. China is also increasingly targeting the major tech companies in the country. And Apple could be next.
Competition is also lurking. Until now, companies such as Apple, Amazon, Facebook, and Microsoft have not been much in the way. What's more, they seemed to join forces and avoid competition with each other in their respective fields. That could well change.
In their quest for growth, companies could cross each other's territory. And regulators could also make the market more competitive. An example of this is the Digital Markets Act, which is currently pending in the European Union. As a result, Apple would no longer be able to curb competition in the App Store. And the commission the company charges — up to 30 per cent of an app's purchase price — should come down.

Ariana Grande Has "No Tears Left To Cry"
Kyle Denis April 20, 2018 April 20, 2020 Music
For her first original music release since the devastating and deadly bombing at her concert in Manchester Arena last year, Ariana has delivered a post-house/garage-influenced dance-pop/R&B banger brimming with maturity and ecstasy.
The emotional intro sets the foundation for what seems to be a gorgeous ballad, but then the song transitions into a bouncy pseudo-house beat and it's only up from there. Ariana, wisely, does not explicitly mention the Manchester Attack, but with lyrics like "we way too fly to partake in all this hate" and "I just want you to come with me/we on another mentality / ain't got no tears left to cry," it is clear who this song is directed to.
"No Tears Left to Cry" is dedicated to the beautiful souls lost in the attacks, Ariana's fanbase, the city of Manchester, and anyone who is ready for a new phase of happiness after a period of darkness. This is especially evident when the euphoric final chorus kicks in; as Ariana's voice effortlessly switches to higher registers her message becomes more pointed and intense. They say the best way to combat hate is with love and a smile, and Ariana has achieved exactly that with this beautiful new track.

The Cleveland district's plan not to renew the contracts of some 45 teachers is bumping up against concerns from the city teachers' union president, who claims he was "blindsided" by the move, the Plain Dealer reports.
Some 68 teachers, or about 2.5 percent of the workforce, were originally identified for termination. After reviews, principals decided to give 15 another chance, and another eight retired or resigned. The personnel also include librarians and other support staff.
To be clear, these are nontenured teachers, which typically means they can be dismissed without the more involved process required for dismissing a teacher with due-process protections. Ohio's probationary period is actually longer than in most states, requiring a teacher to hold a license for seven years (and to be in the same district for at least three of the last five).
Still, Cleveland Federation of Teachers President David Quolke said the district bears more of a responsibility for helping the teachers improve before letting them go. He's encouraging the teachers to appeal the decisions.
A rate of 2.5 percent is about the same percent of the workforce let go in New Haven, Conn., under its new evaluation system, and it's lower than the 9 percent of teachers who were identified as underperforming recently in Pittsburgh, two other cities with American Federation of Teachers affiliates.
Interestingly, Cleveland is another example of a district that AFT leaders have held up as a model of labor-management collaboration because of a good rapport during the development of the evaluation system and other plans. It bears repeating that collaboration is easiest when the stakes are lower; the true sign of a partnership will be whether it can survive the tough calls.

Education system shake up: putting entrepreneurship on the curriculum
Ellie Ward 30th October 2017
It is time to shake up education systems around the world and put social entrepreneurship on the curriculum, concludes new thought-provoking report.
The United Nations' 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights explicitly recognises 'education' as a human right. Few would argue against this notion, however fierce debates have emerged regarding the higher purpose of education.
Education is considered one of the fundamental pillars of a healthy society, but how do we measure the success of an educational system? Is it based on:
attainment;
employability;
citizenship;
self-determination; or,
human advancement?
At this year's UKFIET conference on Learning and Teaching for Sustainable Development at Oxford, the British Council launched a thought provoking opinion piece – titled 'Social entrepreneurship in education' – to discuss these questions. The report, which was also showcased at SOCAP in California this month, concludes that the introduction of social entrepreneurship into educational systems could be a necessary radical reform that will better prepare children to meet the pressing social and environmental challenges that face high and low and middle-income countries alike.
Lindsay Hall is the CEO of Real Ideas Organisation (RIO), which is an early adopter of the concept of embedding social entrepreneurship education into curriculums. She reflects on the education system in England, where RIO is based: "There's a definite move away from coursework, from any of the more practical stuff."
RIO has worked with over 350 schools, including Victoria Park Primary Academy in the West Midlands, to embed the principles of social enterprise into the curriculum. For example, Victoria Park Primary has a social enterprise lead, who is responsible for driving social enterprise activity throughout the whole school and leading the school's own social enterprise.
Called Ballot Street Spice, this social enterprise was launched in 2014 and sells unique spice blends. Students, parents, the school's staff and members of the community are all involved in the business – making decisions and marketing it to the wider community.
Hall believes that operating social enterprises within schools "is a very practical way for parents and lots of community members to get involved" in young people's educational experience. There is increasingly "recognition from schools that if you're going to have successful outcomes in children and young people, it is the whole community that creates that."

Neil McLean is the CEO of the Social Enterprise Academy (SEA) in Scotland, which coordinates similar initiatives. SEA has worked with the Scottish Government to reach out to over 900 schools across Scotland between 2008 and 2016 – supporting primary schools set up social enterprises and integrating 'the language and concepts of social entrepreneurship into children's [learning] experience from a young age'.
As part of its social enterprise strategy, the Scottish government has announced it aims to place a social enterprise in every school in Scotland in the next 10 years.
"We're delighted at that," says McLean. By introducing social enterprises into schools, McLean describes how students benefit from a cross-curricular learning experience. Students build confidence, develop skills in problem solving and communication, as well as improving their ability in more traditional academic subjects such as Maths.
He says: "One of the tutors involved described how the students had gone from being passive recipients of teaching to being active citizens and participants of learning. That's a pretty fundamental change in mind-set."
Zooming out: the global perspective
Richard Catherall focussed his MBA research on the competitiveness of social enterprises in public services, including education. He now works primarily in the Middle East, supporting leaders of social businesses, and is one of the authors of the British Council report.
Catherall highlights that the most surprising finding of this research was the "overwhelming support there was for the professional development of teachers" around the subject of social enterprise, which would result in greater awareness of the fit between social entrepreneurship and education.
"Across the world, there was a consensus among professional teachers that the time was right for doing this," he says.
In Thailand, another early adopter demonstrates enthusiasm to bring the relatively segregated worlds of social entrepreneurship and education together – the Mechai Bamboo School.
The literal translation of social entrepreneurship in Thai is 'business and sharing'
The Mechai Bamboo School was founded by Mechai Viravaidya and has a unique model that combines entrepreneurial education with community development. The curriculum has been designed around the Sustainable Development Goals and students take on an active role in the management of the school.
Student entrepreneurs at the Mechai Bamboo School
Viravaidya says: "I believe we should teach social entrepreneurship at every level – from primary onwards. That's what I'm trying to do.
"The literal translation of social entrepreneurship in Thai is 'business and sharing'. We have helped to develop social enterprises in schools across Thailand, including working farms, a loan fund for parents and a loan fund for students. Students and parents can practice business and it will help get them out of poverty."
While it is clear that around the world there are pockets of activity demonstrating how social entrepreneurship can become intertwined in educational systems, Catherall warns there is a risk of "thinking you've achieved the ambition" when really you are narrowly focussing on the early adopters.
Structural issues remain. For example, in lower and middle-income countries, the pursuit of entrepreneurship – social or otherwise – is often overshadowed by the desire to get a job with a multinational company that offers status and security.
"I think we should respect that there is still this allure from high-income countries that they offer jobs; that this is a destination for talented people. That narrative is still very powerful," explains Catherall.
He continues: "In high-income countries, yes there is a higher understanding of entrepreneurship… but the type of entrepreneurship we are nurturing doesn't fit what we're now saying should be taught in schools." It is failing to address one of the most pressing challenges facing high income countries – rising inequality at home.
"For example, in America the investment largely focuses on three states… only 15% of the big businesses are focussing on the top six challenges society faces… Even in the places where entrepreneurship itself is really well understood, accepted and respected, the way we nurture the economy is still out of kilter.
"It means that neither system is particularly well joined up," concludes Catherall.
The British Council's 'Social entrepreneurship in education' report concludes with recommendations on how to further support the embedding of social entrepreneurship into educational systems. For example, implementing awareness raising initiatives that demonstrate the impact social entrepreneurship education can have among funders, educators, social entrepreneurs, academics and governments. And it concludes that if we want to address some of society's most pressing challenges we will need a whole new generation of social innovators and change makers.

In 2012, I became the CEO of a start-up social enterprise (501c3) in San Diego. At the time, I was a life-long private-sector entrepreneur; this organization, called Mission Edge, marked my first foray into the nonprofit world.
At Mission Edge, we help nonprofits build capacity in their "back office." We charge below-market (subsidized) fees to facilitate the sharing of expert resources across multiple organizations, while working to improve their organizational effectiveness. And after more than 20 years in business, I can honestly say that this endeavor has been by far the biggest challenge of my career—not because of market demand (there is plenty of need for what we provide), or a shortage of talent (we have found many passionate and skilled employees), or even pricing (in most cases, our clients can afford our discounted rates). Rather, the challenge lies fundamentally in the way the social sector is capitalized.

Date issues keep away Katrina from doing film for Salman
Publish date : 29 April, 2016
Mumbai, Apr 29 (PTI) Actress Katrina Kaif had to turn down an untitled film, set to be co-produced by Salman Khan's production house, due to date issues.
Actor Sushant Singh Rajput and Jacqueline Fernandez have now been signed for the Taran Mansukhani film, which will be produced by Dharma Productions and Salman Khan Films.
It was however Kaif who was initially approached for the role.
"Katrina was approached for the film since she was a perfect fit for the role and shares a great equation with Salman Khan Films and Dharma Productions. She had to turn it down as she has signed another movie, dates of which were clashing with this project," sources close to the development said in a statement here.
"It was then that the makers approached Jacqueline as Katrina has committed her timelines to another film," the sources added.
Katrina will be seen next in "Baar Baar Dekho" opposite Sidharth Malhotra.

Write a review on Gaspari Nutrition SizeOn Pre-Contest!
Gaspari took Sports Nutrition to the highest level with SizeOn, the original intra-workout creatine drink. There wasn't any doubt it represented a serious innovative leap forward in the creatine category. SizeOn clearly demonstrated in a clinical setting that it destroyed its competition and quickly became known as the King of Creatines. As clinical research advances, so does Gaspari Nutrition which is why SizeOn has now evolved into the Ultimate No Added Carbohydrate Hybrid Intra-Workout Whey Hydosylate Creatine Formula. Once again Gaspari Nutrition raises the bar even higher in the sports nutrition industry and has offered you a no added carbohydrate version of its original masterpiece! Gaspari Nutrition uses 12 grams of a high quality whey hydrosylate that contains over 50% di & tripeptides as well as a large array of anabolic promoting ingredients such a high dose of L-LEUCINE (5 grams) to allow for unparalleled increases in athletic performance, skeletal muscle recovery, explosiveness and most notably, immediate increases in muscle size WHILE YOU ARE STILL TRAINING. To top it off, we also included LOLA™, our cutting-edge, ammonia scavenging amino acid salt of L-Ornithine and L-Aspartate to help battle fatigue. The bottom line is that Gaspari Nutrition has once again outdone itself and yet again redefined the very category it created.
I was a big fan of the original size on by gaspari. I understand that the new one was made for those who disliked the amount of carbs in the old version.
Pros on the new sizeon, is obviously the protein. Makes for a better intra workout having hydrolysate protein as well as BCAAs. that was a nice touch. Lower carbs is great, but i didnt mind the carb content of the old version.
Downsides: Taste, i have the grape flavor, and bleh, way too strong, they need to dull it down, otherwise i find myself diluting it or using half scoops. Also the formula itself kind of dissapoints me. I dont think this is worth the hefty price tag many places have as the blend of creatine now starts with Monohydrate as opposed to gluconate.

Metro Vancouver ends air quality warning after days of smoky skies
Environment Canada says air quality in southern and central British Columbia is expected to improve through the weekend as a new weather system moves in.
Conditions in mountainous areas of B.C. could get worse before improving
The Canadian Press · Posted: Sep 19, 2020 11:48 AM PT | Last Updated: September 19, 2020
Smoke from wildfires burning in California, Oregon and Washington state has blanketed B.C., prompting respiratory health warnings on Saturday that extended into southern Alberta and as far east as Saskatchewan. (Ben Nelms/CBC)
Metro Vancouver has ended the fine particulate matter air quality advisory that has been in effect since Sept. 8, saying clean marine air is now flowing through the region.
Environment Canada says air quality in southern and central British Columbia is expected to improve through the weekend as a new weather system moves in, but conditions across the mountains were expected to worsen before getting better.
Smoke from wildfires burning in California, Oregon and Washington state has blanketed B.C., prompting respiratory health warnings on Saturday that extended into southern Alberta and as far east as Saskatchewan.
Environment Canada said smoke was beginning to clear across the western half of Vancouver Island, and there should be widespread improvements farther east by Sunday.
In the central portions of the province, the agency said smoke will be visible at higher elevations with potential for light to moderate effects.
Farther east, the weather agency was forecasting more smoke in southern Alberta on Saturday, and issued special air quality statements for Jasper and Banff national parks, as well as Calgary and into south-central Saskatchewan.

It said smoky conditions across those areas were expected to worsen throughout the day, causing the air quality to deteriorate in many locations. As a weather system moved through the area Saturday night, conditions were expected to improve by Sunday.

Apples (Malus Domestica) are a fruit that have been cultivated for many centuries and many thosands of varieties exist. Here are some descriptions of popular apple varieties. They can be bought on different rootstocks to alter the height and spread of the resulting apple trees.
There are over 4000 apple varieties around the world, but many people only ever experience their local variety or the few options provided by supermarkets. However, a little investigation reaps amazing rewards. Here is a short list of some apple varieties which are worth hunting down.
Alexander - Not a good keeper, but the fruits can get very big.
Baldwin - Lovely north American apple variety that has a thick skin and keeps well.
Blenheim Orange- a great all-round apple with excellent storage qualities.
Braeburn - popular sweet red apple with a crisp texture.
Bramley - The most popular cooking apple.
Brown's - A great little cider apple from the west of England with lots of lovely sharpness.
Cox - The best of all. Nothing like else quite like a Cox's apple.The tree does tend to suffer from diseases, although some ecent cultivars are proving very resistant and are still producing amazing apples.
Crimson King- a 19th century somerset cider apple still going strong today.
Golden Delicious - retains shape and size well, so often seen in supermarkets, but loses flavour quickly. When fresh off the tree it is a fabulous apple.
James Grieve - individual flavour from an easy-to-grow variety.
Katy - A rich red apple often grown for juicing.
Worcester Pearmain - Another great juice apple. Reliableearly cropper with lovely balanced taste and good orange colour.
It is estimated that there are 7,500 varieties of apple grown around the world, with golden delicious the most widely grown variety. Although pretty bland, it has good keeping qualities and is usually blemish free.

Suspension of all football matches due to Coronavirus pandemic
Club released a statement on Friday, 13th March confirming the suspension of football matches with immediate affect. The matches slated to be played till the end of this month have been impacted. This follows behind closed door game against LASK Linz which United won emphatically 5-0 with Tahith Chong fresh from signing a new contract created two assists. There has been instances in the past where the season has been suspended due to unusual winter weather or hooliganism that has disrupted the season but were able to resume and finish nonetheless. Example the 1962-63 season had to be extended by a month due to the Big Freeze to complete the backlog which seems challenging due to this summer's Euro 2020.
After the boxing day match in December 1962 the next one that United played was on 23 February. Without the outlet of playing that few used to vent their frustrations things came to a head regarding the tactics and training when few seniors like skipper Noel Cantwell, Maurice Setters, Harry Greg questioned the methods. Post Munich it was the ever reliable ex-keeper Jack Crompton who conducted the training sessions on Sir Matt's behest. Players targeted Jack but actually wanted to know the reaction of 'the Boss' if he was receptive to the ideas that were flooding the game at Ipswich, Tottenham, Leeds, Liverpool, Celtic et al. During clear the air meeting 'the Boss' was all ears and Jack did speak out on being targeted especially by Cantwell. The Boss knew about these murmurs more than everyone thought and it merely confirmed to him the team's receptiveness. Like Bruno Fernandes now, it was Pat Crerand then who had joined the club recently and the fortunes of the club started turning positively.
Despite finishing 19th just avoiding relegation United won their first trophy after Munich the 1963 FA Cup where 4th placed Leicester City were the favourites who had one of the best defenses in the league with keeper Gordon Banks, captain Colin Appleton, Ian King and Frank McLintok dubbed the 'Ice Kings'. Crerand flourished in the wide expanse of Wembley after struggling to settle at Old Trafford initially, created the crucial passes for Law to score that was captured by Alan Hoby of Sunday Express as "a deadly duet danced by those two tartan magicians, Crerand and Law." United played Leicester twice in two days on 15th and 16th April over Easter drawing the first match 2-2 at home and losing a scintillating encounter 3-4 away where Denis Law scored a hat-trick that was cancelled by hat-trick of Ken Keyworth that took Leicester to the top of the league.
Freeze meant United played 3rd to 6th round of FA Cup matches in March starting with a 5-0 win over Huddersfield Town where Denis Law scored a hat-trick then beat Aston Villa, Chelsea, Coventry City and Southampton in semi-final in April all without needing a replay. Albert Quixall scored in the first four FA Cup matches and converted a crucial penalty after Denis Law was fouled to draw 1-1 at Maine Road the result that kept red half of Manchester in the league while relegating the blue half. Youth Cup winners of 64 in George Best, David Sadler, Bobby Noble, John Aston Jr, John Fitzpatrick, Jimmy Rimmer then combined to provide the exuberance with Shay Brennan, Tony Dunne, David Gaskell, Nobby Stiles, Johnny Giles that jelled with the experience of the seniors Bobby Charlton, Denis Law, Bill Foulkes, David Herd, Paddy Crerand needed to lift the team to glory.
Euro 2020 is being held in 12 different countries this time to commemorate the 60th year of the tournament with finals to be staged in Wembley. If the outbreak is not curtailed by end of this month UEFA and FA will have a tough decision to make; either allow the league to finish provided Euro's are postponed to next year in which the new expanded Club World Cup format is to be rolled out by FIFA or end the league season as is to let the Euro's be staged. Last time a season was involuntarily interrupted completely was in 1939-40 which only managed to have three games played before the second world war halted all major football till 1946-47. United had started the '39 season with a win and a draw then traveled to London to play Charlton Athletic to whom they lost 0-2. Next day war was declared and within two days the entire league season was cancelled.
This is the second break of the season after the FA introduced a winter break in February for the first time. After freeze United needed to play 18 league matches and 6 FA Cup matches which meant playing 7 league games in month of April and May each which was a huge ask. Now United just need to play 9 times in league, 3 times in FA Cup and 6 times in Europe if they go all the way to the finals. In 60's cup was probably given higher importance by finishing it first except for semi and finals but now the league might be given the first priority then European competitions and lastly the FA Cup that has all Premier League clubs in quarter-finals that compounds the situation. Euro 2020 starts from 13th June but with major leagues having their national teams based in their own countries the traveling logistics at the start of the tournament are minimized. United have already played 9 games each in December and January, and similar number of games are required to be played in April and May to complete the season which is definitely possible. Hoping the efforts of everyone to limit the spread of virus comes good. God speed!
United are on a 11 game unbeaten run since the shock loss to Burnley. Unlike the issues that cropped up for Busby despite just one loss in nine league games prior to suspension, Solskjaer is in a much healthier terrain having taken tough structural decisions early about the deadwood, getting the recruitment right, reorganized the setup at youth level, getting the best out of Fred, easing Williams and Greenwood, naming Maguire as captain, winning over Matic and all this despite injuries to Martial, Shaw, McTominay, Rashford and Pogba. Busby did hold his flock together while inducting the youth to reap the rewards.

Couple Woken By Cat's Crazy Behavior - Then They Realize What's Happening
By: Christopher Feery | February 26, 2019
It is pretty clear that some heroes have a knack for knowing when they're needed. Sometimes, those heroes turn out to be someone you would never expect. That's certainly the case in this amazing story. As Fox News shares, a 6-year-old cat is being lauded as a hero in Philadelphia.
So what did this amazing feline do? He awoke a sleeping couple - just moments before their home collapsed. FOX 29 was on site at the amazing scene, and it certainly sounds like things were awfully hairy.
"FOX 29's Steve Keeley reports there was a couple in their 40s at the time and neither had to be taken to the hospital," the network reports. "Their cat Baxter knew something was wrong and woke up the man who was sleeping on first floor couch. Then, he woke up his wife upstairs, and they heard crackling."
Interest was through the roof on this story in the area, and the network provided a play-by-play for the captivated audience on social media.
"Seth in red jacket & Bones in Phillies hat climb up & save couple hanging onto railing after house collapse @FOX29philly," the network wrote.
As word got out about what happened, crowds quickly gathered to catch a glimpse. It sounds like Baxter was in some peril after his heroic actions, but the crew on hand made it a priority to bring the brave cat to safety.
"Crowds arrived at the scene and watched crews go up through a second floor window and recover Baxter on the roof. Then they burst into applause," the network continued. "The cause of the collapse will be under investigation. Construction next door is a possibility. Crews were said to be digging the foundation for new homes on Tuesday.
"BEFORE&AFTER collapse of West Philly rowhome that was a 'stand alone' house which can NEVER get insurance &you see why not @FOX29philly," FOX29 shared on social media.
The network explains that stand-alone rowhomes can be considered to be compromised by insurance companies, and that can make securing coverage more than challenging. It's unclear if the family in this situation had coverage or not, but they're lucky to be alive in any event.
"The family was too upset to talk on camera, but tell FOX 29 they do have a place to stay and are so thankful their rescue kitty came to their rescue," the network continued. "Baxter is doing OK and is getting a lot of love and attention."
So what happened to Baxter? The Pennsylvania State Animal Response Team was quickly on the scene to ensure he was well taken care of.
"Happy outcome at W.Philly house collapse. We cant do what we do w/o the support of @PhillyLI. @RedPawRelief, Baxter & his family thanks you!" a post from a team member on social media read.
We hope Baxter is being treated like a king right now, and you can be sure that the couple he helped save is forever grateful. Here's to hoping things turn around for the couple in question sooner rather than later, but at least they know they have an absolutely awesome furry little friend that loves them.

Vanadium dioxide (VO2) metal conducts electricity — with ten times less heat
A team of researchers led by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory recently discovered a metal that conducts electricity without producing or requiring excess heat. While it would not be a far-fetched notion in conductors operating at cryogenic temperatures, it is an unusual property for one that operates at a temperature of approximately 67 degrees Celsius.
The metal vanadium dioxide (VO2) accomplished just that. Researchers discovered that passing an electrical current through nanoscale rods of VO2 resulted in ten times less heat than the Wiedemann-Franz Law would predict. "This was a totally unexpected finding," said Berkeley physicist and professor Junqiao Wu. "It shows a drastic breakdown of a textbook law that has been known to be robust for conventional conductors. This discovery is of fundamental importance for understanding the basic electronic behavior of novel conductors."
At the nanoscale level, heat is carried primarily by vibrations in the crystal lattice. At ordinary temperatures, waves of phonons travel through metals and interfere with electrons' ability to freely pass through the structure. At ultra-low temperatures, however, atoms are nearly frozen into immobility, which results in the free flow of electrons with almost no rise in temperature. For this reason, most metals become superconductors at cryogenic levels.
Vanadium dioxide, however, undergoes an abrupt transition at 67 degrees Celsius, transforming its crystal structure and changing from an insulator to a conductor. With a remarkably low thermal energy release, electrons in VO2 flow freely to produce a current without limited movement. Researchers theorize that this is because VO2 in its transition phase is a "non-Fermi liquid."
According to the Fermi Liquid Theory, low temperatures cause electrons in most metals to collect other electrons on the path through the material, accumulating a mass as quasiparticles. These quasiparticles are subject to high dissipation rates at room temperature. Non-Fermi liquids, however, behave differently. Rather than producing quasiparticles for the transport of heat, these materials generate current as electron diffusion moves like liquid from areas of high-electron density regions to low-density regions.
Professor Wu discussed this further in relation to VO2, stating, "The electrons were moving in unison with each other, much like a fluid, instead of as individual particles like in normal metals. For electrons, heat is a random motion. Normal metals transport heat efficiently because there are so many different possible microscopic configurations that the individual electrons can jump between. In contrast, the coordinated, marching-band-like motion of electrons in vanadium dioxide is detrimental to heat transfer as there are fewer configurations available for the electrons to hop randomly between."
Berkeley Lab scientists Junqiao Wu, Fan Yang, and Changhyun Ko (l-r) are working at the nano-Auger electron spectroscopy instrument at the Molecular Foundry, a DOE Office of Science User Facility. They used the instrument to determine the amount of tungsten in the tungsten-vanadium dioxide (WVO2) nanobeams. (Credit: Marilyn Chung/Berkeley Lab)
The metallic vanadium dioxide was also discovered to have its electricity-to-heat ratios altered by producing an alloy with other metals. Combining a single crystal of VO2 with tungsten resulted in improved electron flow and a decreased temperature at which the transition into a conductor occurred.
Co-lead author Fan Yang, a postdoctoral researcher at Berkeley Lab's Molecular Foundry, stated, "This material could be used to help stabilize temperature. By tuning its thermal conductivity, the material can efficiently and automatically dissipate heat in the hot summer because it will have high thermal conductivity but prevent heat loss in the cold winter because of its low thermal conductivity at lower temperatures."
Yang added that more questions need to be answered before the metal can be commercialized, though the study highlights the potential for "exotic electrical and thermal properties." Researchers will continue experimenting with and studying the metal, while also debating whether it qualifies as a non-Fermi liquid at its transition point.
