Why talking is better than walking
You can't engage in dialogue while walking in a parade that raises such antagonism.

I am not homophobic. I stand for and respect the gay community, and I openly fight the demonization its members suffer in Israeli society. Of course, like in the famous joke, some of my friends and family are homosexual and I am proud of that, but that's not my kashrut certificate. I believe that I have the right to disagree with the actions of the gay community in Jerusalem, in particular the management of the Open House community center. I am, and have been from the beginning some five years ago, against the gay pride parade taking place anywhere it raises strong opposition, in Jerusalem particularly. I am not against the parade because I think the haredi community should not be challenged. I respect the haredi community (some of my best friends and relatives are members of this community and here again, I am proud of it). My reasons are totally different. It is connected with the (sad) fact that respectful and productive dialogue is not a strong side of Israeli society. You only have to watch some of the most popular shows on local TV stations to realize that we do not listen and we do not even expect our conversation partners to listen to us. An average Israeli so-called dialogue would inevitably end with only two options for the opposing sides: Either you've crushed your opponent or you've been crushed yourself. Options of listening, understanding the other's point and perhaps even seeing it differently are totally out of question. In many ways, holding a gay parade in a place where so many people still think you might become gay or sick if you even look at gay people (I have heard this several times, and not only from haredim), is to engage in a dialogue Israeli style, meaning: a waste of time and energy. Some will probably never change their mind, but they are a minority. The vast majority is made up of people who ignore the facts, are indifferent and do not know how and where to find those facts. So roughly, they follow the leader. These are the people the homosexual activists and others who care about a free and democratic society should try to reach and talk to. But you can't engage in dialogue while walking in a parade that raises such antagonism. It just doesn't work. And there is another reason why I am opposed to the parade. People at the Open House say that after every parade lots of people call to ask for information. I believe them. But I am sure that many more people, including young people and especially teenagers who are confused about their sexual identity, won't call at all, because they already feel different and are afraid. Amid such hatred against the gay community, it is more difficult to get closer to the Open House and what it represents. And it can be a matter of life and death, because according to the Open House one-third of teen suicide attempts are connected to sexual identity. I have come to the conclusion that the only way to save those kids, and also many adults who are afraid of their identity, is not through parades and hatred and riots, but by education, advocacy and free information away from an agitated atmosphere. I would like the municipality and the state to use my taxes for this purpose, not for a parade that will ultimately cause only more hatred - not to mention the traffic jams.

Record numbers of nursing students as pandemic inspires next generation
The latest data on university admissions published by UCAS shows record numbers of students accepted places to study nursing and midwifery in England this year.
The final figures from this year's admission cycle show there were 29,740 acceptances to nursing and midwifery courses in England, 6,110 more than last year and an increase of over a quarter (26%). This year, 23% (6,770) of acceptances were from students aged 35 years and older, a 43% increase on last year.
The number of new nursing applicants to English providers between 15 January and 30 June was 68% (4,600) higher than the same period last year. The lockdown period (23 March to 30 June deadline) itself saw nearly double the number of applications to nursing relative to the same period in the year previously.
Minister for Care Helen Whately said:
It's fantastic to see so many people choosing to pursue a career in nursing and midwifery, with over a quarter more students starting on courses. This year has shown just how much we depend on nurses. I have no doubt that their incredible work has inspired the next generation to pursue careers in the NHS and social care.
This year we've also introduced a new training grant for nursing students of at least £5,000 a year, helping to remove the barriers for anyone considering this brilliant career.
With over 14,800 more nurses working in our NHS compared to last year, we are on our way to delivering 50,000 more by the end of this Parliament to help us build back better.
In September the government introduced training grants for eligible nursing, midwifery and many allied health profession students of at least £5,000 a year, which does not need to be paid back. Additional payments of up to £3,000 will be available for specialisms struggling to recruit, including learning disability and mental health nursing and to help students cover childcare costs.
Figures to the end of August show the number of nurses in the NHS in England increased by 14,813 compared with last year.

By now, you will have implemented your pay policies, and it will very soon be time to conduct the first set of appraisals since this was done. Although this may be the first time that the appraisal directly affects pay progression, the objectives of the appraisal itself should be no different. The same general principles of assessment of the past and planning for the future will apply.
Although it is certainly true of most situations that there is no substitute for good preparation (familiarising yourself with the expected standards of performance relevant to that role and that individual), probably the easiest hurdle to fall at is that final one – that of following up the actions that are decided at the meeting.
Obviously if you do not implement the decisions you have made during the appraisal meeting, you will not see the improvements you had hoped to bring about. Worse, employees may lose interest, and job satisfaction could be damaged, particularly if they feel their effort (both in preparing for the meeting and in the period of time since their last appraisal) has been wasted. Failing to follow the meeting up can give them the impression that you don't have any genuine interest in their role or their advancement.
It is therefore vital that you record the assessment of the employee's contribution, potential and development needs, so that you have a ready-made plan of action, and objectives to review next time around. Make that plan clear and simple, and although it is useful to assess some elements with tick boxes, combine this with written sections for any specific comments that need to be recorded.
Do not forget that appraisals should always be positive and the main focus should be on development for the future. Although you will review past performance, do not fall into the trap of having your meeting become a disciplinary or investigatory hearing by another name; if you are having problems with the employee's performance, any necessary disciplinary action should be in hand separately. Of course, conversely, you should not let the link to pay progression cause you to shy away from highlighting any performance areas that do need addressing.

the Battle Before Engaging in the War …
Well that escalated quickly. In a length and detailed press briefing, the Trump campaign legal team detailed allegations and evidence surrounding claims widespread election fraud responsible for stealing hundreds of thousands of votes from Donald Trump.
As Sharyl Attkisson reports, Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani alleged the evidence shows Trump was elected in a "landslide."
"This is real. It is not made up. There is nobody here that is engaged in fantasies…I can prove to you that he won Pennsylvania by 150,000 votes…The people who did this have committed one of the worst crimes that I've ever seen or heard."
– Rudy Giuliani
Among other matters, they discussed sworn affidavits filed in court.
During the presser, Giuliani also said there is a pattern in the voting data that suggests "a plan from a centralized place" to commit voter fraud in Democrat-run cities. Giuliani also said the Trump campaign will likely bring a lawsuit to Arizona.
They also said they have testimony from an insider who they say unearthed provable fraud regarding voting machines and software used in multiple states.
They describe a process of vote switching as well as "trashing" Trump votes through a simple drag and click process.
Additionally, they say this election involved a manipulation of the ballot count in a foreign country.
"This is a massive, coordinated, well-funded effort to deprive we the people of the United States of our fundamental right under the U.S. Constitution to preserve this Constitution republic we all cherish."
– Sidney Powell
And they describe multiple incidents where the number of votes cast far exceeded the population of the public in that county, including children.
Democrats deny there is any evidence of "widespread fraud." They and the news media have broadly called the election for Joe Biden and urged President Trump to concede.
Surprise, surprise, not everyone was buying what Giuliani and Powell were selling.
"You are watching the last gasp of this legal effort by the president," Wendy Weiser, director of the Democracy Program at the Brennan Center for Justice, told ABC News.
"This has been a flailing legal effort that hasn't raised any real issues from the get-go. We all knew how this movie would end. If I was writing the screenplay I would end it here."
Below you can watch the entire news conference and hear the claims of evidence to make up your own mind as to what you think about it.
As we detailed ahead of the press briefing, with many questioning where this going next, though JPM's Michael Cembalest admits there is still a chance, President Trump's legal team is holding a press briefing to outline their strategy.
In one post in a stream of tweets, Trump said the legal team will give an "important news conference today" and that they will explain their plans for a "very clear and viable path to victory".
"Pieces are very nicely falling into place," the president tweeted.
By one count, Trump campaign legal efforts to overturn election results or force recounts have been successful just once and suffered 26 defeats… so for the 70 million-plus Trump voters, we hope that Giuliani has a trick or two up his sleeve.
We make bad decisions when we are fearful, understand the evil element you're dealing with, they are soulless, godless Self-centered maniacs…

Convergent grey and white matter evidence of orbitofrontal cortex changes related to disinhibition in behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia
Michael Hornberger, John Geng, John R. Hodges
Disinhibition is a common behavioural symptom in frontotemporal dementia but its neural correlates are still debated. In the current study, we investigated the grey and white matter neural correlates of disinhibition in a sample of behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia (n=14) and patients with Alzheimer's disease (n=15). We employed an objective (Hayling Test of inhibitory functioning) and subjective/carer-based (Neuropsychiatric Inventory) measure of disinhibition to reveal convergent evidence of disinhibitory behaviour. Mean and overlap-based statistical analyses were conducted to investigate profiles of performance in patients with behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia, Alzheimer's disease and controls. Hayling Test and Neuropsychiatric Inventory scores were entered as covariates in a grey matter voxel-based morphometry, as well as in a white matter diffusion tensor imaging analysis to determine the underlying grey and white matter correlates. Patients with behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia showed more disinhibition on both behavioural measures in comparison to patients with Alzheimer's disease and controls. Voxel-based morphometry results revealed that atrophy in orbitofrontal/subgenual, medial prefrontal cortex and anterior temporal lobe areas covaried with total errors score of the Hayling Test. Similarly, the Neuropsychiatric Inventory disinhibition frequency score correlated with atrophy in orbitofrontal cortex and temporal pole brain regions. The orbitofrontal atrophy related to the objective (Hayling Test) and subjective (Neuropsychiatric Inventory) measures of disinhibition was partially overlapping. Diffusion tensor imaging analysis revealed that white matter integrity fractional anisotropy values of the white matter tracts connecting the identified grey matter regions, namely uncinate fasciculus, forceps minor and genu of the corpus callosum, correlated well with the total error score of the Hayling Test. Our results show that a network of orbitofrontal, anterior temporal and mesial frontal brain regions and their connecting white matter tracts are involved in inhibitory functioning. Further, we find convergent evidence for objective and subjective disinhibition measures that the orbitofrontal/subgenual brain region is critical for adapting and maintaining normal behaviour.

The Fisht Stadium faces the Black Sea. Cross the road and you are on the seashore with people coming from all over the world to enjoy the beauty of Sochi. Against the backdrop of the Caucasus mountains, the sun-bathed city has long been the most popular tourist attraction in Russia.
Named after Mount Fisht, the stadium was built in 2014 for the Winter Olympics. The British construction company that built the ground gave it the appearance of a snowy peak which, in red, blue, yellow and green at night and white under the sun, makes you a happy soul to visit it. The sea is so close, you can go there at the half-time to enjoy your can of beer and come back in time to see the proceedings of the second half.
The Russians did not pass on the opportunity to see their team scaling new heights as hosts. They were on the verge of a semi-final place. Their soldiers were brave enough to deny Croatia an outright win in the second 15 minutes of extra-time. Igor Akinfeev, the modern version of Russia and world's best custodian ever, Lev Yasin, saved a penalty from Mateo Kovasic with his left hand to give his team oxygen after Fedor Smolov's first penalty was saved by another fighter, Danijel Subasic.
But this World Cup is not for the South Americans as proved by Mario Fernandes, the Brazilian-turned-Russian. The defender equalised with a brilliant header but shot his penalty wide. Ivan Rakitic, for the second time in two matches, calmly buried the ball into the net to earn the Croatians a right to be in the last four for the first time in 20 years.
Normally, we sports journalists have some duties to perform immediately after the match is over. Filing reports, attending press conferences, trying for an extra quote in the mixed zone. It takes an hour or so even after the match is finished to complete your professional tasks. By that time, spectators normally have normally left the stadium when you take your backpack and get out of the media centre.
However, in Russia and after the matches where Russia had played, it was a completely different scenario. People leave the stadium, but they stay around. They sing, dance and shout, "Raa-ssi-aa", "Raa-ssi-aa" with their country's colours painted on cheeks and faces. Even after the defeat, their exit from the World Cup, people were there at the seashore chanting.
"We are happy, They gave us the joy to watch the game. They fought till the last. What more could we have asked for from our national team," they said. They were right. At first, they could not think so. Before the quarter-final, especially after the way they had shut their doors for Spain in the second round, their national football team had given them something to cheer about after so many years. So, even after the elimination, they were there to show their support to their national heroes. Fisht Stadium and the Black Sea, on a black night, witnessed a rare sight at midnight.
People thanked Stanslav Cherchesov and his men, saluted their effort. Even the President of Russia was thanked by the cheering crowd who did not shed a tear. "Thank you Putin, we love you", a section called. They could be heard despite the roaring waves of the Black Sea.

More evidence of anti-Semitism at Oxford U.
After student leader quits over leftist anti-Semitism at leading UK university, more Jewish students come forward with harrowing testimony.
Ari Soffer, 17/02/16 11:36
Oxford University (file)
Following the high-profile resignation of a senior student union leader at Britain's prestigious Oxford University, over what he described as rampant anti-Semitism among "the student left," further disturbing details of endemic anti-Semitism at the university has come to light.
Alex Chalmers - who isn't Jewish himself - resigned as Co-Chair of the left-wing Oxford University Labor Club (OULC), specifically in light of the Club's decision to endorse "Israel Apartheid Week," but more generally due to an alarming growth in anti-Semitic incidents emanating from leftist students on campus.
But in making such a public stand - his Facebook post explaining why he resigned has since gone viral - Chalmers' actions have since encouraged scores of Jewish students to come forward with their own worrying testimonies of anti-Semitism.
According to Oxford Jewish Society (JSoc), incidents range from endemic casual anti-Semitism, conspiracy theories and name-calling, to organized campaigns of harassment and bullying.
The following is a post shared Tuesday night by Oxford JSoc describing the testimony:
OULC has become increasingly dominated by the radical student left in recent weeks and months. This has been accompanied by a series of anti-semitic statements and incidents. Following Alex Chalmers' resignation, other OULC members have approached Oxford University Jewish Society with reports of these incidents, which are documented below:
• Several people, all of whom have been on committee, have been known to sing the song 'Rockets over Tel Aviv' and have specifically expressed support for Hamas' tactic of launching indiscriminate attacks against Israel's Jewish citizens.
• One member stated specifically that it was 'not anti-Semitic' to allege the existence of a 'New York – Tel Aviv axis' that rigs elections, and said that 'we should be aware of the influence wielded over elections by high net-worth Jewish individuals'. He also stated that it was 'not anti-Semitic' to allege the existence of an international Jewish conspiracy, even though he did not endorse the idea himself.
• One member, then on committee, stated that all Jews should be expected to publicly denounce Zionism and the state of Israel, and that we should not associate with any Jew who fails to do so.
• Several individuals, some who have been on committee, repeatedly used the word 'Zio' (a word normally only found on neo-Nazi websites) to refer to Jewish students.
• Several members have alleged that US foreign policy is under the control of the 'Zionist Lobby' and when asked if by 'Zionist' they simply meant 'Jewish' they went very silent.
• One member of OULC was formally disciplined by their College for organising a group of students to harass a Jewish student and to shout 'filthy Zionist' whenever they saw her.
• In a public discussion on the OULC Facebook group one member argued that Hamas was justified in its policy of killing Jewish civilians and claimed that all Jews were legitimate targets. Several other members, including two former co-chairs and one then on committee, defended the member as making 'a legitimate point clumsily expressed'.
• Two members of OULC argued that Jenny Tonge, a peer expelled from the Liberal Democrats over anti-Semitism, should be encouraged to join the Labour Party.
Oxford JSoc is appalled by these reports and remains steadfast in its opposition to anti-semitism of any kind. If you are affected by any of these issues and would like to speak to someone, Oxford University Jewish Society and Oxford Jewish Chaplaincy are here to support you.
Arutz Sheva has reached out to the student union and senior officials at Oxford University for comment. Any responses received will be published.

Since starting the Alternative Textbook Initiative, Stacy and I have been working with OU faculty who have chosen to adopt an open textbook to be used this coming fall semester. Some have simply adopted a textbook and others have chosen to write their own. In the OER space, when an author writes a textbook it is most commonly published in multiple formats. Typically open textbooks exist in digital form whether that be PDF, ePUB, iBook, a webpage, or some other form of eText. Faculty who are interested in open textbooks are concerned about how accessible their textbooks are; therefore, it would be ideal if their digital textbooks were also available in print form.
We decided to do some experimentation with websites as an open textbook publishing platform. After all, if you're careful about it, webpages can be made to display well on desktop computers, laptops, tablets and phones alike regardless of proprietary restrictions. Webpages offer the interactivity that many faculty members are looking for and they can be edited in such a way that all users of the page receive the updated version at the same time. We even found during our experiment that webpages can be made to print beautifully using an alternative stylesheet that styles the content of the page in such a way that is ideal for printing on paper. Realizing this, I set out to build a website template that displayed well on devices of varying screen sizes and could be easily printed. Because I kept the layout pretty simple this was not too difficult to do.
Using two stylesheets; one for on-screen presentation and the other for on-paper presentation is quite easy. In fact, the on-paper stylesheet is quite similar to the on-screen stylesheet except that elements that should not be printed are hidden by a display: none attribute. Before beginning the experiment, I had never used a separate stylesheet for the print version of a page, but this article from Smashing Magazine gave me gave me all that I needed to get started. Using stylesheets in this way makes removing menus, backgrounds, headers and footers simple and allows only the content of the page to be displayed. Something to consider when printing a webpage is how the interactive content of the page will be displayed on paper. Videos should ideally not show up in the on-paper version of a webpage, but in their place should be a link to the video so that those reading on paper can access the video once they are in front of a computer. This can be achieved, by displaying the video (media, in the example below) in the on-screen version of the page and hiding it in the on-paper version of the page and furthermore by hiding the link to the video in the on-screen version of the page and showing it in the on-paper version of the page. The stylesheet comparison below explains this more clearly than that last sentence. Even those who are unfamiliar with CSS, I'm sure can make sense of the snippets below.
One of the many benefits of using separate stylesheets for different forms of presentation is the ability to use different fonts for each. There is debate about typefaces and which are more legible on screen vs on paper. This blog post by Alex Poole, a user experience designer, outlines the debate well. The argument is over whether or not san-serif fonts are more legible on-screen than are serif fonts. My personal opinion is that they are, and I have set up the two stylesheets accordingly. If you click on the side-by-side comparison of the styleshees above to view the full-size image, you'll notice that the example on the left, the on-screen version, uses a san-serif font whereas the on-paper version, on the right, uses a serif font. This is just another example of the flexibility achieved when using multiple stylesheets.
We are currently working with two faculty members regarding how to best deliver their open content to students. A website template similar to that pictured above has been proposed to each citing the benefits of universal cross-platform compatibility, ability to edit after publishing, ability to print, and the option to include interactive features. Neither solution is developed enough to link to an example page, but as soon as one is available there will surely be a blog post about it.
The Galileo's World Academy of the Lynx Workspace is open.
Wow, what a great post again, Cody! The faculty you are working with are so lucky to have your help, and I'm looking forward to seeing what products result and also what you will learn from the students as you use the materials. I especially appreciate your sharing the technical nitty-gritty of what you are learning so that we can get the benefit of that without having to start from scratch ourselves. I know a little bit about CSS, but I tend to prefer hosted solutions rather than building my own website.
In fact, I've embarked on a huge and long-term course materials redesign this summer because my ANCIENT website (one I built back in 2002) is just not sustainable. As I do this, one of the things I am most curious about is just how the students use the texts – how do they choose (since my course is very much about choosing from a variety of texts), and when/where/how do they do their reading, do they print, etc., the same kinds of questions you are pondering! I hope to learn a lot about that next year just from asking the students about that so I can then refine my quick-and-dirty content from this summer in order to match their needs/preferences more closely.
One of the secondary learning experiences I hope the students will have is getting to know these different sources for free online books. My main sources are Project Gutenberg, Internet Archive, Google Books, Hathi Trust, Amazon (for free Kindle editions), and LibriVox (for audio). I also rely heavily on Sacred Texts Archive, Sur La Lune Fairy Tales, and Baldwin Project as more specialized sites that connect specifically with the topics I teach.
Based on your blog post, I have to correct my statement there that OU provides zero support for content development, since you are clearly doing exactly that! I think it's GREAT, and I am so glad you are sharing what you are learning online like this so that we can all get the benefit. Thank you!!!
Thanks for your compliments and continued interest, Laura! It's nice to learn about the work that others are doing regarding these matters. Thanks for doing that work and sharing your experiences.
I am curious to know exactly what about your "ancient" website became unmanageable. You mentioned in your blog post about using Blogger as a content management system that its label feature is important to your workflow. I like your creative use of the post dates to order your posts. ! To give my question some perspective, I am not too familiar with blogging platforms and how to best use them. The back-end side of this blog has a what-you-see-is-what-you-get type editor that gives a pretty accurate representation of what you should expect the finished post to look like. It makes styling text and inserting links easy. I like that; however, I find myself spending quite a bit of time on the plain-text side of the editor massaging my post into shape because I find that it allows more control (I hesitate to say, "full control" because I notice that when I submit changes, it sometimes changes the edits that I have made. Sometimes I don't mind WordPress trying to correct me. Other times I find it really annoying.) over the content of a post.
As I worked on the experimental layout, I could not help but think about people who are slightly less enthusiastic about editing HTML and CSS than I am. I enjoy that type of thing and am far from an being an expert, but because I enjoy it, I don't mind its tediousness. I perfectly understand that many faculty members who want to openly publish their course materials do not have the time or desire to have such a tedious workflow. Because of this, I would like to know if you are in any way hindered by using a platform such as Blogger and if so what benefits it offers over the freedom of building the site yourself.
Thanks again, Laura, for sharing your insight!
The biggest problem with my old website was scale; since the blogging platform takes care of navigation for me (in much the same way a wiki would also, using labels and time/date stamps to build the navigation automatically), I was able to create this site with what will be about 2000 pages over the summer without any problems and no overhead in terms of design; the navigation pages and sidebar navigation modules are all automatic. My old website was already collapsing under its own weight with not more than 1000 pages or so. I've actually created this project in less time than it took me to build the old website.
Even better, this will continue to scale upwards to 5000 pages or even more I guess (but I figure 5000 pages is probably what I will need before it feels finished to me). Then, when I'm done with that, I'll want to move it to a true database-driven website… but that will require a summer of really learning code to do that. I've programmed databases before, but never a database-driven website. I hope that when that time comes in four or five years, there will be some good hosted solutions (I'm not the only person with a lot of content who would like to deliver that efficiently online with a database back end that I can manage more directly than in Blogger…) and/or a good solution provided by the university (but for that, OU would need to clone you about a dozen times at least!).
I know what you mean about formatting! I mostly write the posts using HTML templates that I run in a plain text editor and then paste them in to the post box in code view. Where there are weird things in the posts, that's almost always because I used the Blogger WYSIWYG editor, and what I see is not exactly what I get, ha ha. But I'm very plain-Jane about the HTML, just basically formatting, links, etc. Math stuff is seriously hard… I used to have trouble with foreign fonts but luckily Unicode really solved all those problems for me! To do stuff in ancient Greek used to be a time-consuming nightmare, but now it is as easy as typing in English. I'm really lucky that by working with just regular text and old book illustrations, I don't really face any formatting dilemmas at all.
Blogger will let me edit the style sheet if I want, but I don't, except for having tinkered with some of the template defaults… and I love the way it has a great ?m=1 mobile view that will render all these posts super-easy to read on a handheld if my students are reading on handhelds — but are they reading on handhelds…? and do I really want them to since they are supposed to be taking notes as they read…? That is all stuff to ponder next year as I dialogue with them about this. I am very excited but also nervous to find out what they think of this! I know they want something better / bigger / different than the old website, and this is definitely better / bigger / different. But will it be good enough? Oh man, I am so curious to find out what this fall will be like!
Anyway, another reason for Blogger: there is also a real virtue, for me, in using a free tool like Blogger that my students can also use. One of the most important things I feel I can do, esp. in the online Gen. Ed. classes I teach, is to model online presence for students: I want to use blogs and wikis and tools like Twitter, Pinterest, etc., that I know are free and easy for them to learn to use too. And since OU provides no reliable webspace for students (about the disaster that is students.ou.edu I will not speak), they need hosted solutions like Blogger, etc. Admittedly, I am more of a "power user" than they are, but that's good: because I use these tools every day myself, I can be confident in providing tech support for my students. My students definitely do not need (or have the time) to learn to be actual website designers, but learning how to use online tools like Blogger, Google Sites, Google Docs, etc. is something that I think is VERY important for any career path they might follow.
Again, thanks for what you are doing. Seeing what you and Stacy are up to is the most exciting thing I've watched happening at OU in a long time, and I am esp. glad you are sharing stuff online via Twitter, the blog here, etc. Much appreciated!!!
Cody, I wrote up some more notes about Blogger here! Thanks again for getting this conversation going; it has been very helpful for me to organize my thoughts about this stuff.
I'm glad something came of the conversation. Thanks for your perspective.

Nashville Tennessean
When Luke Combs took the stage at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena — to the roar of a packed house — the country star quipped that it was a casual Monday night in Music City.
But really, that's what Keith Urban aims for with his "All For The Hall" benefit concert, which returned to Bridgestone for its seventh edition on Monday.
The all-star show raises funds for the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum's education programs, and once again, a ton of big names turned out for the cause.
Monday's lineup also included Blake Shelton, Chris Stapleton, Tanya Tucker, Lauren Daigle, Brothers Osborne, Ingrid Andress, Carly Pearce, Morgan Wallen and Tenille Townes.
"Keeping it super loose is the key," Urban told The Tennessean before the show.
"I try and stress it to all the artists. I go, 'Just think of it as rehearsal. Don't even think there's an audience there,' because I think the audience loves that about this show. It's not slick. It's super-real."
The night's theme was "Under the Influence." Performers treated the crowd to one of their own hits, and then a song (or more) by artists who'd inspired them.
That added up to a fast-paced night of crowd-pleasers and surprising choices. And as loose as Urban aims to keep things, not one of these acts dropped the ball for a second. Hard as it was to choose, we've picked a few of our favorite moments.

Tanya Tucker takes all
As he introduced Tucker — the penultimate act of the night — Urban said he came close to covering one of her songs as his "Under The Influence" pick. That highlighted the fact that the 61-year-old was the lone legend on Monday's bill — but at the same time, she paid more homage to her heroes than any other performer.
Tucker's cover song choice was actually an epic four-song medley of George Jones' "The Grand Tour," Loretta Lynn's "Blue Kentucky Girl," Merle Haggard's "Workin' Man Blues" and Tammy Wynette's "Stand By Your Man," and she sang each like they were her own. She topped that off with "Bring My Flowers Now," which just earned her the first Grammys of her career last month.
Keith Urban's 'Blue Bayou'
Urban spent most of the night as emcee and sideman, occasionally flashing his brilliant guitar chops with the likes of Brothers Osborne on their "Ain't My Fault." But on "Blue Bayou" — a Roy Orbison song later redefined by Linda Ronstadt — his voice soared with a version that would do both of those legendary singers proud.
Urban told The Tennessean he was inspired after watching the 2019 documentary "Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice."
"I grew up with a lot of her music, and the documentary floored me. I felt like I learned so much more about her. And in that moment, I went, 'Well, I know I'm gonna do a Linda song."
Morgan Wallen's 'Take It Easy'
His smash hit "Whiskey Glasses" (which he performed on Monday) is un-apologetically fresh and modern, but Wallen's powerful voice has proven to work wonders on time-tested material, too, like Jason Isbell's "Cover Me Up."
He did again at "All For the Hall" with an inspired take on The Eagles' "Take It Easy," adding natural, native Tennessee muscle to one of the lightest country-rock tunes around.
Lauren Daigle's 'You Say'
We enjoyed her reverent take on Roberta Flack's 'Killing Me Softly With His Song,' but seeing Daigle — Christian music's biggest crossover success in years — connect with a country crowd through her signature ballad was an even bigger highlight.
Ingrid Andress' 'Country Roads'
The rising star followed her performance of her 2019 hit "More Hearts Than Mine" with a unique, piano-driven cover of John Denver's anthem.
Chris and Morgane Stapleton stand alone
Urban and the backing band got to take five when Chris and Morgane Stapleton took the stage. The couple kept the room spellbound with two acoustic tunes: Stapleton's own "Millionaire" and Willie Nelson's "Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground."
We had a blast with Carly Pearce's irresistible "Man! I Feel Like a Woman," Tenille Townes' bold choice of U2's anthem "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For," Brothers Osborne's salute to Merle Haggard with "The Bottle Let Me Down" and Blake Shelton's ever-charismatic turn with "Dallas" and "Ole Red."
All For the Hall 2020 setlist
Keith Urban - "Wasted Time" and "Blue Bayou"
Carly Pearce - "Every Little Thing" and "Man, I Feel Like a Woman"
Morgan Wallen - "Whiskey Glasses" and "Take It Easy"
Tenille Townes - "Somebody's Daughter" and "Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For"
Blake Shelton - "Ole Red" and "Dallas"
Ingrid Andress - "More Hearts Than Mine" and "Country Roads"
Brothers Osborne - "The Bottle Let Me Down" and "Ain't My Fault"
Lauren Daigle - "You Say" and "Killing Me Softly"
Chris Stapleton - "Millionaire" and "Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground"
Tanya Tucker - "Bring Me Flowers Now" and a medley including "The Grand Tour," "Blue Kentucky Girl," "Workin' Man Blues" and "Stand By Your Man"
Luke Combs - "Even Though I'm Leaving" and "Brand New Man"

Police in England say they won't enforce masks in supermarkets
The police have set themselves up for a conflict with ministers by insisting that they will not enforce mask-wearing in supermarkets amid growing calls for tougher Covid measures including a crackdown on the number of people in workplaces.
Sources said the government was actively considering telling people to wear masks outdoors as the NHS faces its "most dangerous" point. A further 4,193 people were reported to have gone to hospital with coronavirus on Monday, bringing the current total to 32,294.
A ban on people in England walking or exercising with anyone from outside their household is also on the table, with sources saying it was "under active consideration".
Ministers have been urged by trade unions to focus on underlining the need for home working as figures show that traffic on the tube in London – often used by commuters – is more than three times higher than in the first lockdown.
The government is keen to intensify efforts to keep contact limited in supermarkets amid concern about infection rates linked to stores. Stores have said they will require help from police if ministers want to increase enforcement of rules such as mask-wearing and social distancing.
On Monday, Morrisons announced that shoppers who refuse to wear a mask without a medical exemption will be told to leave stores. Sainsbury's followed suit, saying it would be posting trained security guards at shop entrances, rather than shop staff, to "challenge" any customers not wearing a mask or shopping in groups. The supermarket said it had also significantly reduced the number of customers allowed into stores at any one time.
At Monday's Downing Street briefing, the health secretary, Matt Hancock, cranked up pressure on law enforcement and supermarkets, saying stronger action was needed, and applauded Morrisons. "That's the right approach, and I want to see all parts of society playing their part in this," he said.
"Stronger enforcement is necessary, and I'm delighted that the police are stepping up their enforcement. But it isn't just about the government and the rules we set, or the police and the work that they do. It's about how everybody behaves."
You don't have to be a lockdown sceptic to worry about how Covid is being policed | John Harris
But multiple law enforcement sources said it would be impossible for officers to police supermarkets and insisted forces needed greater clarity about how the rules should be imposed. On Monday Derbyshire police said it had withdrawn controversial £200 fines handed to two women who drove five miles from their home to meet for a walk. Apologising, the force said it had been "working hard to understand the ever-changing guidance and legislation".
Asked about enforcing rules in supermarkets, one senior police leader said "we won't be doing that", adding: "Do people really want the police telling you: 'that's not above your nose'? There are no extra officers. Everything else [crime] is still happening. Where is the greater risk: do you put two people in a supermarket not wearing masks before a woman suffering domestic violence?
"You need clearer, consistent messaging, not new rules and more enforcement."
A chief constable said: "I do not think we need additional powers; I need additional clarity about the exceptions, about how far people can travel."
Another senior police source added: "The government wants to see more enforcement but that will not regulate behaviour. There is no way the 40,000 officers you can deploy can enforce regulations on 65 million people if they do not want to follow."
Police are being quicker to issue fines to those they believe will not comply with the rules but are wedded to an approach of trying to encourage people. Police in England and Wales have issued around 30,000 penalty notices, while counterparts in France have issued over 1 million.
A government source insisted there were no imminent changes to the rules planned and said the emphasis was on messaging and enforcement, urging people to stay within existing rules rather than any tighter legal restrictions.
However, it is understood discussions in government took place over the weekend and on Monday about returning to some of the rules of the first lockdown in March, which limited people to one form of outside exercise a day either alone or with people from their household.
Hancock has said he would not remove the right for people to access "support bubbles" where people can form tightly restricted bubbles with one other household if they live alone or if family members provide childcare.
"I can rule out removing the bubbles that we have in place," he said. "Childcare bubbles and support bubbles are very important, and we're going to keep them."
Hancock declined to say what extra rules might be brought in and implored people to "act like you have the virus". He said: "I know there's been speculation about more restrictions. We don't rule out taking more action if it's needed but it's your actions now that can make a difference."
Concerns have been raised by trade unions about home working, with statistics suggesting many more people are in the workplace compared with the March lockdown.
Figures from Transport for London suggested there are four times the number of tube passengers compared with the first lockdown, when there was just 4% of normal demand in mid-April. On Monday, demand on buses was at 29% compared to 18% in mid-April.
Unite's general secretary, Len McCluskey, said the government must instruct employers to use the furlough scheme to keep employees out of the workplace and enforce the stay at home message, but he said support from the Treasury was lacking.
"Time and again, ministers have been told that unless employers are instructed to use the furlough scheme, too many will demand that workers come to work, therefore undermining an essential public health message," he said. "And unless the low paid and insecure are paid enough to stay at home then they cannot do so."
The government has also been urged to emphasise the need for civil servants to stay at home. Lucille Thirlby, assistant general secretary of the FDA, which represents civil servants, said: "The civil service should be leading the example and ensuring that staff do not attend the workplace and work from home, unless their role is of immediate critical delivery or importance.
"In November, on average over a third of civil servants were working some or all of their working patterns in departments and, whilst we haven't seen any updated information, given the status of the pandemic, the civil service must act quickly and stop unnecessary travel and attendance at workplaces."
The Labour leader, Keir Starmer, said harsher restrictions should be considered within 24 hours and highlighted estate agents and house viewings as one area where rules could be tightened, as well as nurseries.
On Monday, Wales's health minister, Vaughan Gething, said he believed it would be "easier" not to remove a face covering when moving between essential shops.
England's chief medical officer, Prof Chris Whitty said the public should not wait for any government "tinkering" with rules but should redouble efforts now to avoid any unnecessary contacts. "Even within [the rules], we should be doing our level best to minimise the amount of unnecessary contact with people who are not in our household. I can't emphasise that enough," he said.
Speaking to BBC Breakfast, he said the NHS was facing its "most dangerous" point.

Your aspirations are focused on business growth. You have a plan to differentiate your organisation from the competition, to grow sales and to deliver a level of service that will guarantee customer loyalty.
Achieving these plans will require change, additional people, expansion into new markets or geographies and new ways of working. It will also require a change in the way you think about and manage IT.
the questions that arise as your business progresses along its growth trajectory.


The educational cohort model we use here at NWTC provides the students with all the advantages mentioned above. But as an instructor, I can help build and create a successful cohort by doing some easy and simple things. One, I make it clear the first day that WE are in this together. WE are the group, the learners, the cohort. We must include me.
We will introduce ourselves; I will ask about their interests, why they chose this program, do they have any experience in the field of machining. I tell them about myself and what I expect of them in this program.
Every year we will have a few cookouts outside, behind the lab, where everyone brings something. These events build a stronger cohort and it's also plain old fun.
The relationships the students build will last well past graduation. They network with one another, help find employment for each other and recommend a friend, cousin, or younger brother to sing up for the program.
A group of students in a program, taking the same classes, and doing this together does not make a productive cohort. As instructors we can help make it a quality, productive and worthwhile cohort which only can improve the success of our students. When this tight-knit cohort starts to take shape, my job changes thru the year, from instructor to coach.
Students that have strong skill sets in different areas will teach each other, share their knowledge, and learn together. When I observe this happening in the lab, I know I have accomplished something that will aid them throughout their career.

Electronic invoicing is a digital document that replaces paper billing and guarantees the authenticity and integrity of its content. In Mexico it is the new way of generating digital tax receipts and endorsing the cost of the services by breaking down the taxes payable. An electronic invoice is a Digital Tax Receipt for Internet (CFDI), the standard is defined by the SAT in Annex 20, and as of January 1, 2018 the current version is CFDI 3.3. In FactureCash we provide a system for E-invoicing which allows for your company to implement this process easily. Our service will be particularly useful while incorporating E-invoicing to your internal developments as well as your commercial solutions. Our service is powered by dedicated and redundant infrastructure.


A complete records management solution for your business.
Do you have your S.M.A.R.T goals set for this year? What is most important to your business this year?
Are you being S.M.A.R.T this year?
Of course, we do not need to tell you what 'S.M.A.R.T' stands for, but for the sake of the article, let's talk about it.
Is the goal measurable as you move towards its completion? For example, 'We want to be more productive in [this sector] by [this percentage]'.
Make sure it's actually doable! Even if it makes you stretch, make it achievable.
As we spoke about in our post 'Starting the New Year with a Bang', having a goal that everyone can buy into is a really good idea. So, if you did follow that advice and implement that, it's important that your SMART goals are tied into that overall vision for the year.
Put a deadline on it! Goals without deadlines can just remain good ideas.
What is your company's main S.M.A.R.T goal for the New Year?
Increase incoming leads by 20% over the space of 6 months.
Reduce overheads by 10% within 9 months.
Increase productivity in sales department by 10% within 12 months.
So, do you have your S.M.A.R.T goals set for this year?
If your S.M.A.R.T goals include increasing productivity, being better organised or getting more done in the office, then you should consider de-cluttering your office by storing your archives offsite.
