[quote=CB]Sam, I didn't say "the gummint done it" and "adjust facts backward".[/quote]
CB,
Please understand that I wasn't referring to you when I made that statement in response to Larry. It was designed to be a general comment – a jab at those who do not engage in critical thinking. It is my belief that a significant majority of folks who have found their way to PeakProsperity.com (and stayed to read and/or post) are critical thinkers or they wouldn't be here in the first place.
[quote=CB]Critical thinking says that when a profferd explanation does not explain the evidence then that explanation cannot be true and must be rejected.[/quote]
Absolutely agree – that's where critical thinking comes into play.
[quote=CB]It is terrible to think that a few zealots armed with box cutters could defeat the defenses of the most powerful nation on earth. Improbable, really.[/quote]
I'm not sure why you are so surprised. We are such a technically powerful nation that we delude ourselves into thinking every problem (and every solution) just has to be complex. What the 19 hijackers did was use our own system against us. Our refusal to conceive of, and prepare for, such a scenario is a testament to our short-sightedness and arrogance.
Look at the problems our technically powerful military is having in Iraq and Afghanistan. We drive these incredibly expensive (and technical) Humvees around over there and watch them get blown up by simple roadside bombs! The Taliban are hardly a modern, technically competent military force – yet look at how well they are able to damage our military forces using quite simple techniques.
[quote=CB]It is also improbable that standard, simple procedures designed prevent such a plot from succeeding could so utterly fail, not once, but three times in one day.[/quote]
Not correct. This country never prepared for an attack from inside the US. All our force was designed and staged to turn back an attack from outside our borders. By the time TPTB realized what was happening, it was already too late.
[quote=CB]On the other hand it is impossible for planes crashing into the WTC to have caused their complete destruction – and photographic evidence and eyewitness testimony shows that, in fact, this is not what happened. This evidence does show that planes crashed into the towers and subsequently they were destroyed by a series of explosions. In fact, this is exactly what was reported in the media on 9-11-01. I reiterate, when confronted with a truth so monstrous it is easier for most people to believe a lie.[/quote]
Since I've already addressed this part in other posts, I won't repeat myself here.
[quote=CB]The building owner had possession of two enormous white elephants laced with asbestos that would have been enormously expensive to mitigate. Following their destruction he received a multi-billion dollar insurance payout and the mess was cleaned up at public expense. All health and damage claims were shifted to the public.[/quote]
No argument here.
[quote=CB]Two wars were started and legislation was enacted without substantial review that allowed access to financial and telecommunications traffic for the entire nation – in secret, without the possibility of court review. Indefinite detention of citizens in secret, without access to legal recourse was asserted merely by mentioning the suspicion of "terrorism" or threat to the state. Numerous private companies received enormous no-bid contracts to provide secret military and intelligence services.[/quote]
All this is true. In fact, here in Portland, Oregon we watched one of our own citizens (a lawyer, no less) detained by the FBI for over two weeks without being allowed to see his family or contact a lawyer. He was the one that had his finger print mistaken for one in the Spanish train bombings. He was finally released by the FBI with an apology when they realized they had screwed up royally. He sued and collected over a million dollars – funded by you and I of course!
[quote=CB]We will see these changes continue to bear fruit – beyond what has occurred over the past 8 years…[/quote]
I sympathize with your frustration but I cannot accept that there is a conspiracy around every corner. Now, if you said there was an idiot around every corner you'd find me in total agreement!

Camera IconAn artist's impression of the Harmony development at 187 Adelaide Terrace.
Finbar has taken full ownership of the Harmony site at 187 Adelaide Street, East Perth, the fourth and final part of its Symphony City development at the former ABC Studios.
The apartment developer said it acquired its now former joint venture partner Ventrade's share of the site for $4.5 million.
It has engaged the award-winning Palassis Architects to help it gain approval for a large-scale mixed-use development including a short-stay component and intends to lodge a development application before the end of the year.
The development including the ABC Radio building housing the former Basil Kirke Sound Studio will be retained and incorporated into the new project, which will have accommodation, office and other food and drink outlets with an estimated end value of $80 million.
Finbar managing director Darren Pateman said the developer had been integral to the revitalisation of "Perth city's primary residential precinct".
"We see that having full control of this site will provide us the freedom to further explore the significant development potential as we work to progress our plans for a new structure integrated with the important heritage elements in a sympathetic and activated way," Mr Pateman said.
Finbar's Symphony City development includes Adagio, Toccata and the award-winning Concerto towers.
Harmony is the fourth and final stage. Finbar said buying the 2984sqm Harmony site, with the former ABC studios and office, concludes its 11-year joint venture with Ventrade, the Singaporean-owned company which purchased the land from the ABC 11 years ago.

A Talk on "Women and Economics"at the GJU-YFN Online Feminist Leadership Course
I am very excited that I will be giving an exclusive talk on "Women and Economics" to participants of the GJU-YFN Online Feminist Leadership Course which is run jointly by the Gender and Justice Unit and the Young Feminist Network. Its a great opportunity to contribute, even in a small way, to these organisations' goal of cultivating leadership in young women activists especially in Malawi. These two organizations are doing so much in a society that is particularly difficult for women on so many aspects, so please visit their websites to find out more. I have had the opportunity to virtually be in a meeting or two with the participants. Seeing and hearing these young women is an encouragement of what change is possible in building more equitable societies.
There is much to be said about the gender imbalance in Economics as a profession, but also, and just as critical, in Economics as a discipline. The latter is tackled in the Feminist Economics as a technical subject matter whilst the former is in line with all efforts to bring gender balance in the professional and business world. Crucially, we need economic policy to take into account both the role of women and the perspectives of women.
I look forward to (possibly) sharing more thoughts on this.

Colin Kaepernick helps kids know their rights, and their identities
Posted by Mike Florio on May 10, 2017, 2:25 PM EDT
Colin Kaepernick continues to want to play quarterback in the NFL. He also continues to want to do more to impact American youth in a positive way.
Enter the Know Your Rights Camps. Most recently, Kaepernick hosted roughly 200 youths in Chicago for the event, which followed similar programs in New York and Oakland. Dave Zirin of TheNation.com attended the Chicago camp, and he has written about the experience at length.
Kaepernick, along with 50 volunteers, gathered the kids at the DuSable Museum of African American History in Hyde Park. The volunteers included former 49ers teammate Eric Reid.
"I came here to support Colin," Reid told Zirin. "I want to show these kids that there are people who want them to succeed despite how they may feel when they go to school. But I also came here to learn."
In addition to getting breakfast and lunch, the children receive a T-shirt that says "Know Your Rights" on the front, along with 10 points on the back: (1) you have the right to be free; (2) you have the right to be healthy; (3) you have the right to be brilliant; (4) you have the right to be safe; (5) you have the right to be loved; (6) you have the right to be courageous; (7) you have the right to be alive; (8) you have the right to be trusted; (9) you have the right to be educated; and (10) you have the right to know your rights.
At the conclusion of the event, Kaepernick explained his personal journey of adoption into a white home. He said that he later traced his ancestry and lineage to Ghana, Nigeria, and the Ivory Coast.
"I want you to know that our existence now is not normal," Kaepernick said. "It's oppressive. For me, identifying with Africa gave me a higher sense of who I was, knowing that we have a proud history and are all in this together. . . . So when you leave, you are all getting backpacks and inside of them are Ancestry DNA kits so you can trace your ancestry and connect with your lost relatives who may have taken this test as well."
At that, the kids "exploded with joy," according to Zirin — a reaction similar to what occurred in Oakland and New York.
Meanwhile, a variety of reasons for Kaepernick's ongoing unemployment continue to be articulated. Most seem flimsy, incomplete, and pretextual. But that's a question for another day. For now, Kaepernick should be praised from trying to help American youth learn more about who they are and to understand exactly what they have the power to do in order to fully pursue the founding fathers' belief that all humans are created equal, and that all Americans have an inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

I'm not holding my breath for the day Colin Kaepernick hosts a Know Your Responsibilities camp.
ravenbiker says:

You mean like the fact he had already been demoted to second string before he made his protest due the a decline in his effectiveness? That is truth, not pretext.
Truth of the matter is, when you are wearing a uniform and representing an organization, you have certain responsibilities to represent it and not your personal beliefs. I can't go to work with a t-shirt saying 'Deport them all!' and expect to keep my job or get hired by anyone while wearing such a thing. I have to show a certain decorum and professionalism, and I certainly don't make as much money per year or serve as a representative of a nationally viewed organization.
I believe the combination of the two things were major factors in whether he has a job or not in the NFL.

"You have the right to be brilliant". No. No you don't.
The message might contain 10 points, but its 100% fluff.
4onafloor says:
"I want you to know that our existence now is not normal," Kaepernick said. "It's oppressive."
Yes, let's all shed a tear for poor "oppressed" Kaepernick.
replacementwriter says:
Ridiculous, start them claiming victimhood before they leave elementary school! Saw a huffpost article praising kap for basing his 10 rights off of the black panthers rights… great inclusive role models for children. The right to be brilliant? the right to be trusted? no you gotta work for both of those and not just be entitled jerks. These kids don't need DNA tests to know their identity, it would be much more helpful if they could get DNA tests to know their fathers identities.
jamarcuslives says:
With everything that guy has accomplished in the NFL, he never in a million years should've been benched. For Blaine Gabbert of all people! Guys with his accomplishments don't get benched, especially when the team has been blown up, and you've chased off one of the top-3 coaches in all of football for Jim Tomsula. If he got benched, Flacco, Eli and Rivers should've been benched at one time or another as well. And he looked really good last year coming off two surgeries on a terrible football team. If I coached Cincy or Minnesota, I'd trade out my starter for him in a heartbeat to get back in the playoffs. And once there, all bets are off. Kappy has been all-world in every playoff game he's ever played in.
charger383 says:
What about the rights of customers to express their displeasure with employee of a business?
I prefer my Crush to be Orange says:
I wonder if he's doing anything at all to help them avoid hearing about their other rights, like remaining silent or having an attorney.
The problem with Kap isn't that he's a monster (nice straw man) but that he's divisive. For one to be oppressed, one must have an oppressor. If you set one group against another you will always have conflict, and never make progress.
niners816 says:
To who? You? There's a time and a place for everything. It was his right to kneel. It's his employers right to not want to employ him. Take your blinders off, dude. I was a huge Kaep fan until he spat into the faces of many Americans and veterans (my grandparents) by not honoring the flag. Yes, that little cloth that means nothing to you, but it means everything to me and my family. You reap what you sow. Kaep deserves all of this.
elvis2013 says:
Cutler is a better QB and he had no offers, neither did Romo, but you don't have a pre-disposed narrative to push to include those two.
donterrelli says:
He's just teaching liberal principles and how to know you're being oppressed even when you aren't, and how to apply labels to yourself so you can pick a reason as to why you may not be as successful as the next person.
weepingjebus says:
It had been widely reported that his camps are inspired by the Black Panthers, including on BET.com and the Huffington Post. This includes the ten point plan. A cursory Google search will tell you all you need to know. His corrosive anti-American stunts aren't even original.
whatjusthapped says:
If these kids need to read a T shirt to embrace their own identity and self esteem, they have more problems than the camp could hope to resolve.
Seems more like a PR planned move than anything else. What Kap is doing is like pissing in your wetsuit, it might give you a warm feeling all over but is doing nothing toward solving the problem.
largent80 says:
I'm a Hawks fan who was one Sherman-tipped INT away from watching this guy upset my team in their only championship season. So to say I didn't like him would be an understatement.
But you have to give him credit for putting his principles above his paycheck. How many of us would speak out about something important to us knowing it could kill our careers? Usually the wallet takes precedence. Not this time. That takes cojones, even if we disagree with what it is he's standing for.
They aren't liberals or crybabies. They are grown men. That's your answer.
Good for him for backing up what he knelt for.
But honest question here. He seems to point to being adopted by white parents who took care of him as what is oppressive. Not knowing his DNA? How is that the people who helped out a kid who had nothing's fault. Did they say he had to act white and could never know his ancestry? I will be the first to admit we have a LONG way to go in this country, but telling kids being adopted by white people is oppressive is not going to help. It was not that nice white families fault that his parents were gone. It would have also been oppressive if they did not adopt him because of his color and left him in a foster system. I feel bad for his adoptive family having to hear all that, but good for those kids that Colin is stepping up and helping them know their heritage.
jimmyjohns01 says:
He should also tell these kids they have the right to vote as an adult U.S. citizen and it's imperative they exercise that right if they want their voice heard.
8drinkminimum says:
Is "Know Your Rights" printed above or below the picture of Fidel Castro?
thermalito says:
I wonder if he teaches kids to praise Fidel Castro. I wouldn't let my children anywhere near this creep
jonwill57 says:
@ I prefer my Crush to be Orange says:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Or the right to free speech or not stand for the national anthem, which I'm sure you don't everytime you hear it…basically every Sunday. However, my bigger issue with your post is how you call him divisive when your president is exactly that and all his political cronies. But, I get it…that escapes your tunnel vision thoughts. Talk about people being easily offended…you're at the head of line.
scmems07 says:
Good message to the kids, they all have the right to these things… the question is will they want to pursue them? Unfortunately, we are in a time where a lot of the parents for these children are either mellennials with no work habits or respect for others, have no life goals or positive parenting skills or they are not even there. Their role models now consist of people like Justin Beiber, Miley Cyrus, Jaden Smith, Ariana Grande, the Kardashians….shall I keep going?
Good role models today are typically mocked in the media for being too religious or not cool enough. For example, Tim Tebow would be a great role model for kids. Hard worker, chases his dreams, respectful, kind and so on but these kids are used to seeing the media make fun of him because he can't play football like the guy who is really good but gets arrested every off season for DUI or assault.
I know I'll probably get hate for this but I really believe social media is to blame for the downfall of our society. Sure, It gives people the platform to get out positive messages, but also give people the platform to get out negative messages and unfortunately, these kids don't have parents responsible enough to show them right from wrong anymore.
enlightenedskeptic says:
CK is now a force multiplier for creating entitled victims.
No one has a "Right" to most of those items listed. They are earned and maintained.
I do like the Ancestry DNA kit idea though. I agree that identity and knowing your roots is important. Honoring them is even more important.
Flimsy excuse or not, if any team (lacking at QB) thought he could play at a high level (particularly the most important position) he'd be with a team, "distractions" aside.
r8rsfan says:
Kap's a media darling because he's pushing the progressive agenda and has no filter to stop the dramatic, controversial sound bites. The former QB known as Colin has now transformed into Kap the Social Justice Warrior.
BTW – to the guy praising him for sacrificing his income for his cause – that wallet was insanely fat long before his enlightenment.
blackhue82 says:
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but to see so many harsh and downright bigoted comments….it's a shame. Every single comment that actually praises what he does off the field than on is disliked by many on this board. Since when does opinion make someone a terrorist or someone America should hate? We have President who is full of opinions that got elected by his country.
American was built on the blood of all races, but his acts of kneeling for a cause has stirred primarily one race. As an American, that's a shame..
Makes me wonder why have the Constitution or Amendments, this country will never hold those commandments to value
His stance makes even more sense
theprofootballranker says:
slick50kc says:
Feel free to find a country to live in that's up to your standards, you POS.
RE LEE says:
With rights come responsibilities.
abninf says:
His existence is oppressive yet he supports an oppressive communist dictatorship. He just went from notch zero to notch -1.
He doesn't know, it's what his girlfriend told him. A great lesson to be teaching to children.
Kaepernick is on here giving everyone a thumbs down.
joaquinfenix says:
It's funny because those aren't actual rights. Kap is making kids dumber. But, hey, the point is left-wing indoctrination, not education.
saltineamerican says:
The St. Kapernick trying to look good so he can get a job tour continues.
maestro1899 says:
But honest question here. (i'm getting paid, too.) He seems to point to being adopted by white parents who took care of him as what is oppressive. Not knowing his DNA?

He never said being adopted by white parents is the reason for his oppression. The article mentions that "at the conclusion of the event, Kaepernick explained his personal journey of adoption into a white home".
coolzog says:
This guy needs to learn the difference between rights and privileges.
wininer says:
Kids and all their "Rights" are the stinkin problem with kids now a days. The have the right to be respected, and respect this and respect that and the right for this that and the other thing that makes them feel bold enough to do and say the stupid disrespectful nonsense that kids do and say these days.
Kap telling children they are oppressed. Way to protect the ol career there #nflhasbeen.
hexy27 says:
Filmsy Excuses:
– becoming the shrinkin' vegan is actually flimsy
– alienating fans is flimsy marketing
– 4-20 in his last 24 starts is very flimsy
– barely throwing for 200 yards a game is incredibly flimsy
If you have a system where you want to throw the ball and win games, he is the flimsiest option out there.
okk245 says:
Kap is just another glory seeker after screwing up his opportunity. Reminds me of Sean Penn during the aftermath of hurricane Katrina. Penn was in a Jon boat going house to house, passing out bottles of drinking water, with two boats full of hired cameramen following him documenting his "kindness".
blurocpurp says:
wow! from reading these comments you can clearly see that so many people feel some type of way about a black man trying to teach young black kids to love themselves. Why does this bother you so much? If you honestly have a problem with this I think it say more about you than it does Kaep! Your inner racist is showing! You might not acknowledge it as such, but it definitely is. If you dont like him as QB, i can understand that. But if community outreach, like real actual outreach were this man is spending his own hard earned money to actually make a difference bothers you, your views are pretty messed up!
TheDPR says:
PFT planet can be frighteningly hateful.
reecan says:
As much as a like Reid and he's a good football player. I'm good with him leaving also if he's going to continue this protest.

Envigas creates value from wood and agro residues
Envigas R&D department, which develops advanced pyrolysis of biomass, is located just outside Skellefteå, in the north of Sweden. Pyrolysis is the thermal decomposition of biomass which is fed into a reactor under elevated temperature and without access to oxygen. It converts the organic material into bio-carbon (or bio-coal), a little ash, bio-oil and a pyrolysis gas (syngas).
Biomass in the form of chopped wood, bark or sawdust from the forest industry, or agricultural residues like husks or straw or even slurries of manure has historically been deposited, composted or incinerated.
Envigas offers an environmentally friendly and economical alternative to create higher values of the residual products. The company build, own and operate high-precision pyrolysis processes to turn organic residuals into commodities like bio-carbon, bio-oil and syngas. The process is well proven with some 40 installations worldwide, but none in Scandinavia.
Envigas has just launched a first demo plant in Bureå, south of Skellefteå in the north of Sweden and plans to build many more in line with increased demand for the products.
Bio-carbon can replace fossil carbon in virtually all applications. As a reduction material for the metallurgical industry, as feed supplement and soil improvement in agriculture and as an input product in carbon black instead of fossil oil for rubber, plastics and as toner in laser printers.
Bio-oil can replace ordinary fossil oil as fuel or be converted to a bio-crude oil and used as input for the biorefinery when producing jet fuel, diesel or gasoline.
The syngas can be incinerated in a boiler, the energy content is about half of natural gas, the syngas can also be converted to methanol or hydrogen to increase its value.
In 2018 and early 2019, much has happened in Envigas. In early 2018, it was decided to build a first demonstration plant in Bureå outside Skellefteå. The plant was opened at the beginning of 2019. Shortly a decision will be taken concerning a larger production unit. To this project, a grant of 22.3 million SEK has already been granted. The upcoming production facility will provide the metallurgical industry with bio-carbon instead of fossil carbon, as well as produce bio-oil for biofuels.
Envigas uses a circular business model and owns or co-owns their pyrolysis facilities.

Flavor is king, but is not the only trend in ice cream
Flavor is the single most important choice factor and purchase driver for ice cream shoppers. However, there are other trends in ice cream development that help to build further competitive edge. These include non-dairy formulations, low sugar recipes, cleaner labels and ethical ingredients. Non-dairy ice cream has certainly been booming in recent years. Launch numbers rose at a CAGR of almost 30% over 2016-2020 and non-dairy lines now account for 10% of all ice cream introductions. This rises to as much as one-quarter of all activity in North America and one-fifth of launches in Australasia.
Low sugar formulations are also gaining ground, reaching penetration of 6% of launches in 2020. "The development of more natural sweeteners has attracted more attention to sugar reduction," says Lu Ann Williams, Director of Innovation at Innova Market Insights. "Artificial sweeteners have steadily lost ground, and erythritol, stevia and monk fruit are now the top three choices in low sugar and sugar-free ice cream." Meanwhile, when it comes to clean label development, shorter and simpler ingredients lists are popular. Some brands have even flagged the number of ingredients, or indeed the full ingredient list, on their packaging.
Although these are all interesting trends in ice cream development, flavor is still king. Even where alternative positionings are used to target specific consumer interests, taste choices remain vital. In fact, they can be even more important in healthier recipes, helping to cement an indulgent image. For example, salted caramel is one of the biggest winners in recent flavor development, rising to fifth in the flavor rankings in 2020. However, its penetration in non-dairy ice cream is more than twice as high as in regular dairy ice cream.

W 1944 brał udział w walkach o uchwycenie i utrzymanie przyczółku sandomierskiego na Wiśle. Zimą 1945 na 1 Froncie Ukraińskim uczestniczył w operacji wiślańsko-odrzańskiej, w tym w wyzwalaniu Kielc i Piotrkowa, później w forsowaniu Odry i walkach w rejonie Ścinawy. 26 stycznia 1945 dowodzony przez niego pułk odparł wiele niemieckich kontrataków i przeprowadził natarcie na przedmieściach Głogowa. Wiosną 1945 brał udział w walkach o Berlin i o Pragę. W 1946 został zwolniony z armii, później pracował w Ciurupińsku, gdzie został przewodniczącym rejonowego komitetu wykonawczego, i w Kachowce.

"All hands on deck"
September 16, 2022 /2 Comments/in Uncategorized /by dickbernard
You won't see an abundance of words in this post, but behind the links are lots of possibilities for action, especially if you have any interest in Peace and Justice Issues. An earlier post on the Golden Rule, Sep. 12, is here.
Last night (Sep. 15) we were at a great twin cities kickoff for the Golden Rule sailboat, which starts its 1 1/2 year Great Loop Voyage in the Twin Cities through September 30, thence down the Mississippi and onward to the east coast, the Great Lakes, and down river again. All Twin Cities information is here: Golden Rule Sep 2022. Sponsoring organization locally is Veterans for Peace #27. I'm a long-time member. The local made a substantial financial commitment to bring the project here, and contributions are solicited to the Golden Rule Project.
Helen Jaccard and Captain Kiko, and others, put on a very stimulating program. Their particular issue is Nuclear. Follow their link for more.
Helen Jaccard Sep 15, 2022, speaking at Hudson WI
Reference is made to Twin Cities Nonviolent, and to Peacestock 22 in Red Wing. Their links are included. I'm also including the Agenda for Peacestock 22, which I attend on occasion: Peacestock22. I think the first one I attended was Peacestock 2 (then called "Pigstock" because it was sited on a farm in Western Wisconsin. It is always worthwhile.
Unrelated, but really completely related, was another program I attended the night before Golden Rule. It was at the Headquarters of Minnesota's Red Bull Division, and the occasion was rolling out plans for an expanded museum at Camp Ripley, between Little Falls and Brainerd.
I sometimes puzzle, maybe even exasperate, my peacenik friends, because I am every bit as anti-war as they are, but on the other hand, as they know, I come from a family with a very long history of military service, including myself. Having said that, my feet are firmly planted on the Peace side: war accomplishes nothing long term (at the same time, as long as there is evil around humanity, there will be war….)
I see no contradiction at all. Veterans for Peace is full of veterans, these days mostly Vietnam era. People who served, honorably. I include in this group, conscientious objectors and protestors, all witnesses, as were the active military, in the contradictions of War as a supposed instrument of Peace. Everyone is a player.
I will not change the debate here, only I choose to raise the issue!
The speaker at the Camp Ripley event was author Elliott Ackerman, whose first job out of college, in 2003, was U.S. Marines, thence further government service, including five tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, through the withdrawal from America's longest war in Afghanistan in 2021. He knew the turf, first hand. I had purchased his book prior to his talk, and it is worth the read, regardless of ones point of view. It is available at bookstores: The Fifth Act, America's End in Afghanistan.
I thought the talk, in conversation format, was well done. The biggest audience response by far was Ackerman's lament about the lack of civility afoot in this country at present.

from Helen, to her list:
It was THRILLING to watch Goldie go back in the water after her big adventure by truck from California to Hudson, Wisconsin.
Here's the video.
There were SO MANY people who helped in so many ways!
Captain Kiko, Helder Herrera and many others helped get the sails down and booms off.
Captain Kiko and I "undressed" the masts and prepared them for the truck by covering them with carpet.
On the Wisconsin/Minnesota side, we had Captain Kiko, Mary McNellis, Mike McDonald, Dale Opsahl, Craig Wood, Dave Logsdon, Steve Gates, First Mate Steve Buck, Tom Bauch, Gil Macguire, Justin Farner, Collin Meuller and others who planned events and volunteered at the marina.
We painted the bottom and touched up the top sides andrub rail trim, varnished the pin rails and light bars, and did a lot of work on the masts! We repaired what was needed and gave the masts and booms a great new paint job. We had a really great professional get the propeller bent back to perfect shape.
Steve Buck and Gil Macguire are working on the electronics.
In Peace and Friendship,
from Rebecca: Dick: A very thoughtful piece on peace and military honor as well–no contradiction there. My small group called Vote Climate is doing something for the 12 Days of Nonviolence this year-I will send you something separately on that (Look for it, regarding a Sept 30th–zoom call with Bill McKibben–an eventbrite invite– and, on Oct 1, a live event called "Hands across the Mississippi" at the Lake/Marshall bridge and the Danish Am Ctr at the Westend of that bridge).

Mark Ritchie says:
Dick has really captured this powerfully delivered program highlighting our new museum. There will be a copy of the program posted soon and it will be really worth the time to watch! I had the last word that night in my toll[role] as board chair of the organization that is building this museum: the military historical society of Minnesota.
norm hanson says:
I am a veteran as well as are my two brothers, one of whom served a tour in VN as a combat helicopter pilot during his 26-year USAF career. I was a volunteer in the USAF Reserve having complete AFROTC in college and receiving a commission.
As such, I do not rule out the use of military force when deemed necessary due to world events and so on. In that context, I cannot understand how so many veterans can support the five-tie draft dodger who would be king and/or dictator, a man who referred to John McCain as a loser because he was shot down on a bombing mission from a carrier in Yankee Station. How hypocritical, ignorant and arrogant is that!!
The world is a dangerous place and countries. and people must sometimes defend themselves, If you are in doubt about this and this that group hugs while singing kumbya will solve the issues at stake, just ask the Ukranian's how they feel about the unprovoked attack on them by Putin, a person that the man-child would be king and/or dictator would like to emulate!!! You cannot be naive about such things!
The Golden Rule Seriously….

But while executing i'm getting below error
Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: unknown error: df.appendChild is not a function

A: df would hold innerHtml (of type string) while you are expeting it to be of type HTMLElement.
I would recommend that you would look for the df element by it's ID (add it if it's not already exists), then use getElementById() to get the HTMLElement to which you could append your
EDIT:
you may try to work directly with singleNodeValue instead of innerHTML:
JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
js.executeScript("var btn=document.createElement('br');" +"var df =document.evaluate('/html/body/div[1]/p[4]', document, null, XPathResult.FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE, null).singleNodeValue;"
                     + "df.appendChild(btn);");

A: appendChild() is a function of DOM Nodes. document.evaluate(xpapth) returns an XPathResult thus the error.
You're trying to call appendChild() of df which is a XpathResult

Latest Rangers News
Rangers Match Reports
Rangers Transfer News
Rangers analysis: Sheyi Ojo and Joe Aribo offer encouragement
Rangers' Sheyi Ojo. Picture: SNS
Alan Pattullo
There are more taxing testing grounds than the Victoria Stadium in Gibraltar, regardless of what has befallen Scottish sides on this patch of synthetic turf in the recent past.
Steven Gerrard decided against throwing too many new signings into the mix with just two – Jordan Jones and Sheyi Ojo – starting against St Joseph's in the heat.
Both caught the eye, the latter especially so after claiming the goal that put Rangers two up shortly after half-time. The winning of the tie is now a formality. Next week's second leg can now be employed as another 90-minute run out for players such as Ojo, pictured, on loan from Liverpool, to continue their settling-in process.
Having scored against Oxford United last weekend, he's already left an impression on Rangers fans. Last night's performance against admittedly paltry opposition was another pointer that he could be a vital player this season.
His driving runs on the right of midfield provided another dimension for Gerrard's side, who secured a comprehensive win in a professional manner.
They did take some time to get into their stride, as tends to happen at this early stage of the season. A dry pitch did not help and neither did a stiff breeze in an exposed stadium based across a security fence from the Gibraltar International Airport.
Surprisingly, it's not been named after Lee Casciaro, who scored the winning goal for Red Imps on the same pitch against Celtic three years ago. This was a reminder of the potential for slip-up. It's perhaps why Gerrard resisted the urge to throw too many new signings into the mix.
It was a player who might view last night as a new start who helped get Rangers on their way. Borna Barisic fell out of Gerrard's plans quite dramatically last season but set up Ryan Jack for the volleyed opener shortly after half-time with a clever cross.
The Croatian full-back looked fit and ready to make the most of a second chance, if that is what he's been given. It looks as though it is.
Rangers supporters will rightly still enthuse about Ojo's contribution. He slipped into the side in midfield and looked comfortable throughout. He should have scored before he did but cleared the bar from close in after James Tavernier's free-kick from the right. Ojo made up for this minutes later when dispossessing Mauri on the edge of the box and then advancing a few steps before steering a deft shot into the bottom left hand corner with his left foot.
Barisic got the third with a well-executed left-footed free-kick that squeezed in, just. An Alfredo Morelos header with 13 minutes left was a reminder of the Colombian's capabilities. But the Rangers fans might not be so fearful about his future plans if Ojo can continue in this vein. He's not a striker but he looks set to thrill the Rangers fans with his determination to support the forward, which was Jermain Defoe in the first instance last night before Morelos replaced the veteran.
Another new face, former Charlton midfielder Joe Aribo, also made an appearance midway through the second-half and looked hungry for the ball. He's the one that many Rangers fans believe could prove the most inspired of the summer acquisitions.
Greg Stewart was given a run-out towards the end, by which time the game was over. Like Ojo, he can play on both wings though relies more on trickery than power.

Either way, Rangers look to have options whether or not winger Ryan Kent can be lured back from Liverpool. Another wide player, Daniel Candeias, did not even make the squad last night.


It was in the autumn of 1947 that a retrospective exhibition at the René Drouin Gallery in Paris focused critical attention on the work of Alberto Magnelli. The show constituted an an aesthetic revelation that provoked an almost unanimous jolt of enthusiasm among the public, even though it came rather late, considering that the fifty-nine year-old Florentine painter had already been working in France for fifteen years. Magnelli's pioneering role in the elaboration of abstract art was well known, yet only with this show did he earn recognition as a contemporary and topical painter. He became a leading figure for a new generation of post-war artists who adopted geometric abstraction as a reaction against the trend toward lyrical, unstructured painting.
Alberto Magnelli—of whom Dewasne used to say, "He was the best"—will be the main feature of our stand at the Basel Art Fair, thanks to some fifteen works from all periods : paintings, collages, gouaches, and slates.
Following the Paris art fair (FIAC), the gallery has had a string of successful shows : Jean Gabriel Coignet, Hans-Jörg Glattfelder, Nicholas Bodde, and Manfred Mohr. Our next exhibition, of André Tempfel, opens on May 17, just before the Basel Fair.
In the events surrounding the show of "Geometric Abstraction and Lyrical Abstraction" at the Musée Ingres in Montauban, to which we contributed, great stress was placed on the work of Jean Dewasne.
Nantes is currently hosting a large group show (until June 9) on the theme of "More Reality," which includes Jean-Gabriel Coignet and Antoine Perrot. It may well serve as a pendent to the exhibition mentioned below—it interrogates the commitment to abstraction on many levels, the works on show being so many attempts at a answer .
Antoine Perrot defended his Ph.D. on Imported Color at the University of Rennes. At the same time, a show at the Museum of Modern Art in New York has addressed the same theme : Color Chart : Reinventing Color is a fascinating look at the use of industrial colors from Duchamp to Hirst. Furthermore, America is showing interest in the "cool" painting movement that includes a large group of American artists overlooked by the fads for pop and expressive subjectivity, including Bolotowksy and Mclaughlin.
Hans-Jörg Glattfelder, meanwhile, continues to give lectures on geometric abstraction, the most recent having taken place at Mouans Satroux.
In Basel we will be unveiling a few wonderful surprises among the classics—a very fine pastel by Aurélie Nemours and some new works by Glattfelder, whose non-Euclidian vision of flat planes sometimes attains a dizzying perspective. Also present will be sculptural works by Coignet as well as more classic sculptures by Marino di Teana, not forgetting magical pieces by Perrot (who subverts traditional painting materials) and a fascinating computer piece by Manfred Mohr (perhaps the most avant-garde work on our stand). Finally, we will offer a taste of our current show of work by André Stempfel, in which geometry assumes an unusually light, summery air.
We look forward to the festive atmosphere of this finest of art fairs, and hope to see you there.

As New York City's population expanded in the 1800s, it became clear that something needed to be done to address the lack of green space. Consequently, a 770 acre (it was later expanded) chunk of land between 59th St. and 110th St. was set aside for development as a park in the 1850s. Frederick Law Olmsted, the famous landscaper, was commissioned to design and build the park. I...

It's said that life is stranger than fiction. Indeed, fiction is mostly based on real events. Last week I spent a fascinating day in a creative writing workshop and it made me consider how we all write our own stories, whether we realise it or not, so can therefore take a moment to review whether we are writing the kind of story we'd like to read.
When developing a character in creative writing you are advised to spend time answering questions about them to build a well-rounded picture of the person who is the lead role in your story. I'll share a few with you, and see if you can answer them about yourself.
– What is your characters belief system – or lack of belief system – and how did they come to believe these things?
If you take a bit of time to look at your beliefs, and where they came from, you may be able to decide for yourself whether they still serve you positively, or whether they are holding you back in some way. Perhaps looking back on where those beliefs came from with hindsight and bit of detachment you will notice that some negatives beliefs were always flawed.
– What are you characters most significant character strengths?
It's often easier for us to admit our own flaws than strengths. Perhaps you're witty, conscientious, honest, trust worthy or brave. Maybe you're fun, thoughtful, strong willed, polite or kind. Whatever your strengths, take a moment to recognise and celebrate them.
– If your character were to die today, what would they be remembered for?
Look at yourself from other people's perspectives for a moment – or go and ask a few people this question. Is the answer you get the answer you want? If not, the good news is you have some time to change. The bad news is that you don't know how much time, so start making the changes you want to right now!
The basis of most creative writing, is to take the character you've developed, find out what they want, notice what is stopping them from getting it, and following the adventure as they go about over coming those obstacles. Then there is usually a review of what the character learns when they get (or don't get) what they want.
Does that sound like your life? Nah, mine neither.
But then would you read a story where the protagonist just worked in a job they got little joy from, went home and watched TV, ate a combination of the same 4 meals every day and went to bed? Then repeated pretty much the same thing for 40 years? Nah, me neither.
Start by figuring out what you want. Then set about the adventure of overcoming those obstacles. Remember to review what happens when you do, or don't get what you want – even if what your learn is what you wanted ISN'T what you want. Then repeat.

I use canned tomatoes a lot and only use whole tomatoes. The reason is that I once spoke with a man who used to work at a tomato canning factory. He said that the whole tomatoes were usually the best, with the quality going down with the more processing involved. He said to absolutely avoid crushed tomatoes at all costs.
I always take the extra step to deseed canned tomatoes as they tend to add a bitter flavour. I pour the entire can into a large bowl and open each tomato with my hands and scrape out the seeds, then shake the tomato out in the can liquid until the seeds dislodge. I put the cleaned tomato into another bowl. After doing this with all the tomatoes, I pour the leftover liquid through a sieve and use a wooden spoon to moosh any tomato bits through, while keeping the seeds out. It's labour intensive, but it's worth it.
I've found that coconut milk comes in a variety of price points. The ones I buy are generally more expensive, and will be mostly just coconut milk and water. The cheaper ones have all sorts of preservatives and mystery ingredients in them. I can't confirm that the purer ones taste better, but why add any unnecessary ingredients?
I buy these at the Asian grocery store, in the dried goods section. They come in a bag. I find that these are super great for adding a seafoody, umami flavour to food without adding to the saltiness of the dish.
I've actually made a umami powder by grinding up dried anchovies, dried seaweed and dried mushrooms. I've given it as gifts and people really enjoy it. I add it to Asian dishes that are tasting a little bland, but don't need any more salt.


Effective Communication is Key in Relationships… and ESL Design!
COMRATE™, the co-simulation solution developed by Aldec and Agilent is a lot like "couples-therapy" that can help get your digital blocks talking to the rest of your model-based design.
This is a simple modulator system that utilizes the fixed-point and HDL models.
The schematics instantiates carrier and input sources, the floating-point to fixed-point converters, and two subsystems running at different rates.
The arrow-shaped block connecting the two subsystems performs interpolation with a factor of two, i.e. doubles the clock rate.
The first subsystem (marked blue) contains a multiplier which runs at a 1MHz clock rate; the second subsystem (marked green) runs twice as fast, and is the simplest example of a processing path – a single gain block.
It's a multirate design, since it includes blocks driven by multiple clocks derived from the same source.
So what are the challenges in verifying a multirate design like this one?
The HDLs are designed to model the parallelism of hardware using computers, which execute the code sequentially. (Implying that all design nodes have the same simulation time, and the simulation time cannot decrease in subsequent simulation steps).
As opposite to the HDL simulation, the chronology of samples in the subsequent system-level simulation steps is preserved only for a block, but not for the entire system.
A slower block 'B' stays in tB9 (0) time.
A faster block 'A' reaches tA9 (7) which is greater than tB9 (tAcurr > tBcurr).
We have just scratched the surface on this topic. In other words, this was just the trailer! To see the entire "movie" I invite you to download our newest white paper, Verification of Multirate Systems with Multiple Digital Blocks, authored by Arkadiusz Golec, Aldec R&D Engineer and Technologist.
This paper outlines how COMRATE engine can help with the challenge of simulating multirate system-level designs with multiple digital blocks. It contains practical examples with negative simulation delta time and presentation of relative time domains in traditional timing waveform. The paper also explains how SystemVue/Riviera-PRO users are able to take their designs from concept to hardware faster, using the co-simulation flow to verify the digital hardware portions directly inside the system-level environment.

The conceptual framework for the Breast Program is that the distinct biology of the intrinsic subtypes of breast cancer mandate that investigations into etiology, biology, and treatment must not focus upon breast cancer as a disease entity but on subtype-specific lesions or on pathways and molecules mindful that biologic approaches effective in one subset of tumors may be irrelevant in others. We believe that the "low hanging fruit" of single agent biologic therapy has been picked with ER and HER2 targeting; further advances in endocrine resistance, HER2 resistance, and other subtypes will likely require combinatorial approaches and a systems philosophy.
Once one recognizes that breast cancer is not one disease but a family of diseases, it no longer makes sense to ask "what causes breast cancer?" It is likely that gene:gene and gene:environment causes of breast cancer vary by subtype. Our population-based studies, which are among the largest ever performed and systematically oversample young and African-American women, are predicated on the hypotheses that there will be specific predisposition to individual breast cancer subtypes including potential subtype specific associations with defined allelic variants in DNA repair genes, oxidative and hormonal metabolism, and proliferation genes. In addition, we also believe that there will be subtype-specific microenvironmental influences.
uilding upon the UNC Nanotechnology Center of Excellence, Biomedical Research Imaging Facility, and our Bioinformatics Core, we are able to provide the translational and clinical mechanisms for testing improved breast imaging and irradiation techniques such as the carbon nanotube-based designs, imaging advances for dynamic MRI and digital tomosynthesis, analysis of microscopic images and of high dimensional datasets as are generated by imaging studies.

It seems to be libkrb5.so at fault. I have 2 libraries on machine as far as i found - libkrb5.so.3 and libkrb5.so.3.3.

*

*krb5int_key_delete makes me think its kerberos library.

*The method is aliased here to one in error.
I did upgrade all software in hope its patched. But no success. We dont use kerberos module for apache.
Any idea what could be using this library and even how to prevent this issue?

A: I'm also running into this, and trying to determine the cause
Regarding "Any idea what could be using this library":
Utilizing ldd and assuming you have a central location of apache modules, you can iterate through the list of modules and dump ones using this library. Ex:
find /etc/httpd/modules/*.so -exec sh -c 'echo {}; ldd {} | grep libkrb5' \;

(in our case, this returns the following)
/etc/httpd/modules/libphp7.so
    libkrb5.so.3 => /lib64/libkrb5.so.3 (0x00007f4f35f65000)
    libkrb5support.so.0 => /lib64/libkrb5support.so.0 (0x00007f4f34839000)
/etc/httpd/modules/libphp7-zts.so
    libkrb5.so.3 => /lib64/libkrb5.so.3 (0x00007ff228114000)
    libkrb5support.so.0 => /lib64/libkrb5support.so.0 (0x00007ff226c04000)
/etc/httpd/modules/mod_ssl.so
    libkrb5.so.3 => /lib64/libkrb5.so.3 (0x00007f0c0c7fa000)
    libkrb5support.so.0 => /lib64/libkrb5support.so.0 (0x00007f0c0bf9d000)

I did notice the bug at https://krbdev.mit.edu/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=8614 that points to two different versions installed causing issues, but on our environment we have those multiple libraries in /usr/lib64, except libkrb5.so.3 is a symlink to libkrb5.so.3.3, so I would make sure that's not what you're seeing.
I have sent an email to krb5-bugs@mit.edu (based on https://k5wiki.kerberos.org/wiki/Reporting_bugs) and will hopefully have a link to the ticket to share in this post soonish.
EDIT: Follow the bug report @ https://krbdev.mit.edu/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=8863

EA Q&A: Thumbs Up for Fitzy
@eallenjets in your opinion, who's starting at qb this weekend?
— NYK-NYJ-NYY-4LIFE (@knicksjets4life) November 4, 2015
EA: Ryan Fitzpatrick.
The suspense didn't last long. Todd Bowles told the media on Wednesday that Fitzpatrick would start against the Jaguars. In the small window of practice we watched, Fitz wore a glove on his left hand and took snaps from under center. He said he practiced without limitations and he's "extremely confident" he can help the team without putting the Jets or himself in a compromising position. Fitzpatrick, a father of five, did joke that his injured left thumb was painful enough to get him out of changing diapers. In his 11th season and with his sixth NFL team, Fitzpatrick lives for the battle. "It's more painful to sit on the sideline and not be there for your teammates," he said after tearing ligaments in his thumb. "That was hard for me, just feeling like I let everybody down and not being able to go out there and compete with them."
@eallenjets @nyjets how do you think the defense responds after a disappointing performance? And is bryce petty ready to start?
— Angelo Serna (@EDS18f) November 3, 2015
EA: Both David Harris and Muhammad Wilkerson ripped into the defense this week. During a Monday conference call, Harris called the Raiders' film "disgusting" and questioned the effort across the board. And Wilkerson echoed those sentiments, saying defenders were "loafing" during his weekly radio spot on WFAN. It's a good group who flat-out played poorly against the Raiders. The film showed a group that was probably a bit tentative at times while waiting for others to make a play. You want to see a lot better pursuit and a hair on fire attitude moving forward. I would anticipate a strong response against a developing Jaguars offense who does have some young weapons in receivers Allen Robinson, Allen Hurns and RB T.J. Yeldon. Blake Bortles likes to take shots down the field, so the Jets need to get some pressure on him and they will have opportunities to take the ball away. After collecting 15 takeaways their first five games, the Green & White had zero the past two contests. That draught has to end and I think it will on Sunday.
As far as Petty being ready, QB coach Kevin Patullo recently said the rookie was really coming along from a learning standpoint. He also benefited from being the backup to Ryan Fitzpatrick early this season. Patullo has always said the biggest gap is learning what the defenses are doing on a pro level and the complex schemes you get exposed to in the NFL.
@eallenjets have you seen a sneak peak of what the Thursday jersey look like?
— NYJetStories - Alex (@nyjetstories) November 3, 2015
EA: Yes. I don't think you will be disappointed. The NFL will reveal the Jets' Thursday uniforms at 7:50 p.m. tonight during Browns-Bengals pregame and we'll have plenty on NewYorkJets.com & our various social platforms throughout the evening.

EA: It's a Q&A. They ask. I answer. I get it. If you're a fan, you want to know what your squad is wearing. Appearance is important.
@eallenjets really nice to see JK get involved last week. Is his involvement key to future success ?
— 7thletter (@jeezydotnet) November 3, 2015
EA: That No. 3 wideout spot (it would be wrong to call it the slot) could be filled by a committee. Quincy Enunwa will be eligible to return from suspension after the Jets play the Bills. He is a 6'2", 225-pounder who is an asset in the run game. Kerley, who had four catches for 63 yards in the loss to the Raiders, is a smooth performer who can make plays when called upon. Kenbrell Thompkins quietly had a productive game in the loss, hauling in six catches and drawing an end zone pass interference penalty on the Raiders. Speedster Devin Smith is battling an ankle injury and the Jets need him to grow in the offense as well. Contributions are needed beyond Brandon Marshall and Eric Decker, and we'll probably continue to see a committee approach as offensive coordinator Chan Gailey continues to tinker with personnel groupings.
Eric, the #jets have shown an inability to get to the QB without blitzing DB's. Do we need a Pass Rushing OLB? https://t.co/oCSW2GkgwR
— Maurisse (@MaurisseJ) November 4, 2015
EA: While you do a little roster tinkering during the season, the answer is not going to come from outside of this building at this point. The Jets' two top pass rushers – Muhammad Wilkerson and Sheldon Richardson - are interior defenders. If you look at the play counts from last Sunday, Wilkerson (59), Richardson (57), Damon Harrison (44) and rookie Leonard Williams (43) all played more than both OLBs Calvin Pace (29) and Quinton Coples (19). Rookie Lorenzo Mauldin (9) and second-year player Trevor Reilly (8) got some run on defense as well. So against the Raiders, the Jets relied more on their linemen throughout the contest.
Ultimately the Jets have to win more 1-on-1 matchups and that can include the interior of that line. Teams are going to continue to attempt to spread the Green & White out and now this defense is in need of a counter. While little worked in Oakland, the Jets still rank third in terms of yards (307.1 ypg) and 12th in points allowed (19.9 ppg).
@eallenjets what is the status on Mangold?
— The Sandman (@ScottyRay16) November 4, 2015
EA: The All-Pro center is feeling better, but he did not practice on Wednesday. Mangold wore a helmet on the field and we'll have to see if he can participate as the week progresses. After a scary incident against the Pats, all Mangold's tests came back negative.

Box Has Always Been About Reshaping Enterprise Software
One of Box's earliest marketing stunts was a series of billboards on California's Route 101 in which it made no bones about going after enterprise content management (ECM) big shot, Microsoft SharePoint. While many would like to pigeonhole Box as storage or sync and share, Box has always had other ideas.
From the earliest days in its transition from a consumer to enterprise company in the 2009/2010 timeframe, Box telegraphed who it was targeting, and it wasn't on-premises storage vendors like HP, EMC and NetApp. It was Enterprise Content Management brands like SharePoint, EMC Documentum, OpenText, Oracle and IBM.
In a 2010 One on one interview with FierceContentManagement, CEO Aaron Levie outlined his vision for the company. "Initially our core mission was — and still is — to make it easy for people to access, collaborate and share all their content on the web. But our customers' usage of Box prompted our shift from online storage for consumers to a Cloud Content Management platform for business."
What that means in practical terms is that even at that early point, Levie recognized that he didn't want his company lumped in with the online storage/sync and share pack. By tying Box's destiny to ECM, he was moving into far more sophisticated enterprise software territory where companies needed a range of services including security, governance, workflow, metadata libraries and so forth. This was a far more sustainable to place to live and grow than cloud storage, which as we've seen has been commoditized to the point being almost worthless.
That could explain why when Box wanted attention back in that early 2010 timeframe, it focused on content management events. In fact, I met Levie for the first time at an AIIM/Info360 Conference, which in those days was a huge deal, and the premiere conference for content management vendors.
I suspect Levie and his team chose AIIM/Info360 because he had big ambitions even then to redefine content management and to take on the industry titans like Microsoft. From the moment I met him, it was clear he wanted to be more than cloud storage. That was simply a starting point, a means to an end. Today, many analysts and journalists still tend to typecast Box in that early guise.
But Box has been building a content management platform from its earliest enterprise days. It's not a coincidence it hired Whitney Bouck, who worked for years at another big ECM vendor, EMC Documentum to run its enterprise marketing in 2011, or that at its most recent BoxWorks conference it really took aim at filling some of its biggest content management holes by offering workflow and metadata tools that larger customers have been clamoring for.
As Levie told me at the conference, this wasn't about conforming to a 1990s version of content management, so much as using his company's platform to bend content management to Box's vision. "We think content management is changing and the nature of content management is moving more toward Box, than we are building something that looks like [a '90s] content management system," Levie told me at BoxWorks.
Further, Levie also rejected the idea that his company was purely about storage. As he told me, "Storage is just a piece of the content management puzzle, not the business model."
Box also recognized early on that it couldn't be a simple service, it needed to be a platform. To that end, it built APIs to connect to other enterprise software, but it didn't stop at being a connector. It exposed Box's services to embed in other software, and it attracted tens of thousands of developers to build applications on top of Box, something many companies aspire to do, but have found difficult to pull off. Developers want to build things on top of popular applications. By building a popular service, Box laid the foundation for the success of the platform.
Box may deserve to take heat for its sky-high marketing and sales costs and its astonishing customer acquisition costs as reported on its S-1 form, required before an IPO. Perhaps as a result the company has taken its time going public since filing last March, but this week as it finally pushes the IPO button Friday, it's probably at least worth understanding its business model.
Tonight at the market close, Box will announce its opening price, and after all the years, tomorrow morning at market open, it will be game on for them.
I am not in a position to predict how Box will do when the bell rings on Friday, but I know this. It's probably a mistake to underestimate them. Box has never been shy about going after giants.
