Del Sur Artisan Eats, St. Simons Island GA
On a recent visit to St. Simons Island I ducked into this adorable restaurant for a quick bite to eat. I usually go for seafood when I'm on any of the islands but the line was soooo long at Iguanas (the island favorite) that I decided to go another route.
I knew by the looks of it that this place would be a bit pricey but I was pleasantly surprised. Just about everything was under twenty bucks. Perfect for grabbing a quick bite before get on the road to head back home! I also had a feeling that the portions would be tiny. Boy, was I surprised when the chicken breast with chive oil that ordered took up the entire plate! It usually comes with mashed potatoes but I opted for a bowl of linguine with alfredo sauce. Everything was great, even my rum and coke! The only thing that I didn't care for was the bread. You expect great bread with pasta. Theirs wasn't bad, just not addictive like most bread baskets are. Great food, friendly and helpful staff. I'll definitely return.

Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
I'll be posting about my recent trip to the Dominican Republic for a while. I had a blast! It was my first trip out of the country and I can't wait to share more photos with you guys and talk about some of things that I experienced while there. Good and not so good. :o)
This week I was invited to sail the night away at Tradewinds Casino Cruises for their Hospitality Night benefiting Second Harvest of Coastal Georgia. The evening started with a short reception honoring some of the local businesses and allowed for lots of networking, door prizes and fun! Hors d'oeuvres were provided by the chefs and students of Virginia College. Tradewinds is currently rebranding and under new management, including a new ship captain and a completely new marketing/sales team.

WP 103 Charter Schools, Equity and Efficiency in Public Education
Abstract – An increasing number of papers assess the effectiveness of charter schools by comparing the performance of their students with that of students in traditional public schools. In this paper, we develop a model that shows that the presence of charters reproduces a market equilibrium in which all students have the same purchasing power to buy educational services. In this situation, there is no difference in performance between the students allocated to charter or to traditional public schools. Nevertheless, the introduction of charter schools makes the system more equitable and, under certain assumptions, improves the average performance of all students.

Wilmut's team named the sheep cloned from a single adult cell "Dolly" because that cell had come from a mammary gland. I'm tempted, on that basis alone, to cast my vote against human cloning. I mean, if that kind of short-sightedness or immaturity is going to be running things, they're bound to go horribly wrong.
Did they really not foresee that "Dolly" would become headline news? Or did they not even recognize how juvenile they were being? Mammaries = women = mammaries. We are not seen as people, or perhaps colleagues, certainly never as bosses. Really, need I go on? This is all so old. And yet, grown men, brilliant men, on the cutting edge of science, who become headline news, are apparently still forcing farts at the dinner table and snickering about it.
So, cloning? I don't think so. Not until the other half of the species grows up.
(Then again, since cloning means we finally don't need them at all, not even to maintain the species, let's go for it.) (Could it be they never thought of that either – that cloning makes males totally redundant?)
One Response to "Dolly (what's in a name – for cloning)"
Donna Says:
May 5th, 2016 at 9:09 am
Since men are in control, cloning could make females redundant as well. Instead cloning non-gendered or hermaphroditic people and eliminating all others may resolve all the angst? The only problem with cloning is it does not offer genetic diversity (mixing of gene pools from sexual reproduction) which we will need to overcome the problems our male dominated society is doing to fup the world.

Do not panic; I have not suddenly strayed off piste into the world of marketing and advertising, although in truth it is a significant part of what I do, helping women realise just what they have to offer the world.
Whenever I am coaching, or delivering a course, at some point you'll probably hear me say:
"It's no good being good if no one knows that you are good"
You may be Ms Wonderful at your job but if you are keeping your light hidden you will carry on being Ms Anonymous Wonderful.
Which is fine if that's what you want.
However, if you want to open yourself up to new opportunities, new places and new people you have to put yourself out there. Hence the plan. Project 'you'.
Quite how you do it will depend on you and your circumstances. You may choose to make use of social media, or go to a coach, or revamp your LinkedIn profile and 'talk' to your contacts. You may join/start a networking group for your area of expertise (online or in actuality), you may get a mentor at work, shadow someone, write an article for your specialist magazine, apply for a job two grades above your current one, move to a larger company, move to a smaller company… The possibilities are endless.
However you do it, you first have to have confidence in yourself and your abilities. Recognise that traditionally women have been reluctant to blow their own trumpets, to let people how good they are, and that now it's time to start polishing that mouthpiece and blow!
RenewYou is my one day course for women which does just what it says- you'll leave feeling renewed! It's licensed to experienced trainers across the globe. To find your nearest one, click here. It's good.

Royal Pythons are found in the wild in Western Africa, specifically in the regions of Ghana, Benin and Togo.
The weather is hot and tropical, and they mostly live hidden away in rodent burrows, coming out only when hungry and in search of a mate.
They are Agoraphobic, which means they are afraid of wide open spaces. If you put a Royal Python in to a large vivarium, that does not have enough cover, they will become stressed out, and anorexic. This can lead to the death of the snake through malnutrition, so this has to be considered carefully when planning an enclosure. They prefer dark, enclosed spaces and feel most secure if they feel that they can hide.
Some Royals will adapt to living in a vivarium, providing sufficient hiding places are provided. Some are more confident than others, it is just a matter of finding out what the Royal is most comfortable with!
We house most of our snakes in racking systems. All of our Royals feed fine in these, which is a good indication that they are comfortable!
We do not believe that this is the 'right' way, or the only way to do it. It is just the way we do it! We have a rapidly growing collection, so space is at a premium. This seems to be the most space effective solution for us, as well as providing a secure, easily cleaned habitat for our snakes.
Some of our strongest feeders have lived in vivariums in the past, and some hatchlings we have raised and sold have gone straight in to vivariums or even glass Exo-Terra vivariums, and carried on feeding without fail, against all expectations! So it does always depend on the individual snake in question. Some are outgoing and confident, some are shy and easily spooked.
They may not be visually pleasing, however Really Useful Boxes or similar are very easy to keep clean, and are easily disinfected.
Hatchling Royal Pythons are housed in 5l (5 litre) Really Useful Boxes. These provide plenty of room for a small Royal and a water bowl. It will even take a small hide, such as a toilet roll inner or a shop bought hide for the shyer snakes. For those kept in an enclosed rack, a hide is not always needed, as the whole tub does the job of keeping them in a secure enclosed space.
When they are approximately 500g or around a year old, we try them in a 9l RUB. From there they either go in to a 24.5l RUB or a 33l RUB. 33l RUBs have plenty of room for an adult female Royal, unless they turn out to be a large one! We have seen some reach around 4kg and more!
These are just guidelines. A Royal Python will always tell you if they are not happy in their surroundings: they will stop eating!
One example of this is one of our female normals. She looked cramped in her 9l RUB, so we moved her in to an 18l. She went from never missing a feed to refusing every one. We kept her in there for two months, hoping she would settle in. She continued to refuse her food. We put her back in the 9l RUB, offered her food the next day and she took it straight away! We tried again six months or so later, and she moved over successfully, and is now feeding happily in the larger tub.
They will always tell you when they are ready to move!

The StoneSet material has been used for 17 years now as a decorative, hardwearing and porous paving material. One thing that doesn't come up too often, but can be important is the ease of using StoneSet and the StoneSet products, here is 5 reasons why using our products to overlay existing surfaces is so easy:
1. Little to no prep work is required. We can install directly over most cracks and we only need to remove areas requiring 'tie-ing' in with surrounding surfaces.
2. Installation is quick, so disruption is minimal. StoneSet can achieve up to 250sqm installed per day. In most cases the area is accessible by foot the next day.
3. Unlike some concrete overlay systems, the surface doesn't need to be leveled out to remove undulations prior to installation. StoneSet is typically laid between 12-20mm thick and any dips or holes can accounted for in the finished surface pour.
4. Our install set up is very confined. We need power for a mixer and a whisk, that is all. There is no need for water, dust extraction or noisy machinery. When on site we cause minimal disruption.
5. We have a wide network of installers across Australia, this means you don't need to find someone to carry out the works on your behalf, just come to us, no matter where you are in the country and we will do the rest.

Holy Land Trip – June 15-26, 2019 with Pastor Blake Rohrer
The Holy Land is a place that conjures many images in our minds – from inspiring to confounding. I have travelled there three times previously, and each trip was a life-changing experience. This journey will be a pilgrimage in which we will follow in the footsteps of Jesus, seeing the lands of the Bible. Throughout the trip we will share group reflection, prayer and worship. As meaningful as the holy sites will be, I believe our unique encounters with the people who live there today may be even more moving. We will learn what it is like to be a Christian in this sacred and challenged land of many faiths, and we will see first hand the remarkable ministry of the Lutheran church and others who are creating opportunities for hope, healing and peace. We will have good accommodations, delicious meals and expert guides. I hope you'll join me in this trip of a lifetime!

When you are looking for a way to make money at home you probably have fallen over all those marketing pages with someone lounging on the fender of his sports car or at a pool in a famous resort. If you were fascinated by the list of headline enticements to follow the links to get his secret method of attracting easy money, you were already caught in a web of great graphics, bank account images and several strong calls to action, which means "buy the product or service."
Before you fall for every elegant sales pitch on the Web, stop and think a little. Anybody can sit on the fender of an expensive car in the driveway of a mansion and have a picture taken. Those scenes by a pool can be staged on any nicely decorated pool. There was a time when those lovely scenes were duplicated all over the web, with different cars and a pool with different flowers or decorations.
The need to make money online can be so alluring that you might just soak up all those cleverly crafted headlines and lose a lot of money searching for the real secret to "make instant money in 10 days." All those emails with impossible promises to make several thousands of dollars in 3 days, or overnight, without doing any work at all, are designed to lighten your bank accounts. Desperate people will suspend all logic when their back is to the wall. Eddie Cantor famously said 'it takes twenty years to become an overnight success'. Bear that in mind when you are getting your wallet out and dreaming of large amount sof income next week.
There are several ways to make money online with your blog that are not scams, but all require real work and quite a lot of focused thinking. You can find typical methods to make an income from blogging in the normal fashion all over the web. Let's look at some ways to make money online that you might not consider.
- A blog is the easiest way to get started marketing online. Just use Google to find endless lists of "free blogs" to make a hosting and blogging decision for your new business.
Now that you have a blog and don't have any products to sell, consider trying blogging for pay if you are a good writer and can research a subject quickly. To get noticed, advertise your existence by commenting and linking to blogging network sites. When you write your posts be professional in your approach and show some of your personality without being overly personal.
www.Problogger.com and www.weblogs.about.com are popular blogging networks, but you can find 39,700,000 others with a simple Google search.
You can write reviews on products specific to your niche if your niche is currently popular, like mobile phones, parenting or gaming. If your blog is well-written and gets a following you might be approached with a blog for pay offer for writing reviews of the other blogger's products. Some major retailers could also offer this service to you. Just make sure you thoroughly check out their disclosure rules, payment schedules and their reputation before you sign up for anything.
- If you like to take photos, you can make extra money selling your photos on stock photography sites. While you might not send the kids through college selling your photos, you have a good chance of creating a secondary income. Some links to remember: Fotolia, Dreamstime, Shutterstock, and Big Stock Photo.
- Many are making a good online living flipping domains. What you need to do is search the Web and locate unused run-down Web sites that meet your criteria. Make them look better by adding new graphics, current information or resources. You can sell them for a good price
- You can create the business of your dreams online with a blog focused on what you want to do and how you want to do it. Some are making money from their blog by designing and selling T-shirts with off-the-wall phrases or logos. In businesses of this type, the more offbeat or amusing the phrase or logo you put on the T-shirt, the more people will buy it.
The Internet has no boundaries. You can market to international countries with a mouse click. You can sell downloadable products or manufactured products from your blog. You can clean out your closet and garage selling stuff you haven't used in years on eBay. Let your creativity and common sense guide you on your blogging journey. The entire world is your market!

Pedal Powered Kitchen Center An Idea Whose Time Has Come
Photos Credit Christof Thetard
Back in the 60's the Nutone Kitchen Center was all the rage in high-end kitchens; The idea was that you would have a pile of different appliances and one motor to serve them all, built into the kitchen counter. But in the end it didn't make a lot of sense as electric motors were relatively cheap.
But what if you do not want to use electricity? The mechanism is going to take up a lot more space and perhaps be more expensive. Designer Christoph Thetard has designed the R2B2 "to reduce private electric waste production."
John Pavlus at Fast Company calls it "almost genius" and I disagree; it IS Genius. It is built to last, designed for long life, high functionality, easy demounting and hiqh quality.
The pedal and flywheel mechanism generates about 350 watts worth of energy, which Christof says "is enough for most of the daily works in the kitchen"
There is a place for everything, including a hand mixer, a food processor, and a coffee grinder.
It all looks so beautifully made as well, not a bit of plastic to be seen. And there is no reason to stop at just three appliances;
Nutone offered juicers, meat grinders and blenders. Christof could do the same. Except his would last for generations. More at Christof Thetard, found at Fast Company

The Stooges "Punk Gorilla" Rock Men's T-Shirt
So what's the story behind this exceptionally unusual Iggy and The Stooges T-Shirt?
Why would we put a murderous TV headed monkey recklessly smashing the drums on a tshirt?
Well, it all started that one fine day at the 1970 Cincinnati Pop Festival... I first saw Iggy Pop from The Stooges walk out on "top" of the crowd of people... he then proceeded to smear peanut butter all over his bare chest and face... finally throwing huge globs of it out to the massive swirling crowd... fantastic! That was a landmark moment in my life... where I no longer wanted to be astronaut... I wanted to be a rock star!
Well, after all these years it turns out I'm not a rock star...
but I am an astronaut (if you know what I mean)!
Through thick-and-thin, Iggy Pop and his seminal Detroit rock motor band The Stooges (Ron Asheton, Scott Asheton, Dave Alexander) are now one of the greatest hard / punk rock bands of all time. With only 4 ultra-mega-killer-cool albums such as "The Stooges", "Fun House" (produced by legendary Velvet Underground bassist John Cale), "Raw Power" (David Bowie mixed this one, under tumultuous circumstances) and the reunion follow up "The Weirdness" (featuring Mike Watt on bass / The Minutemen), they've managed to secure their place in rock and roll history... and rightfully so... they managed to do it with only FOUR albums (the first three, really)!!
I still can't get the hard psychedelic guitar riff from the song "TV Eye" out of my mind... mix in some of their other amazing sleaze rockers like "I Wanna Be Your Dog", "Search and Destroy" (Henry Rollins has this tattooed on his back!), "I Need Somebody", "1969" and "1970"... and how can you not love this band?! I mean, they knew that 1969 and 1970 would be recalled for years to come... I bet a few of you even discovered The Stooges because you typed "1970 rock" into Google!!
So if you've read this far... what the hell are you waiting for?
Buy this wicked cool drummer t-shirt... praising all that is psychedelic punk rock on this planet Earth!

Will 'Bordertown' Return For Season 2 On Netflix? These Foreign-Language Crime Dramas Will Tide Fans Over
If you're looking for a new TV series to start, you basically can't go wrong with crime dramas. They're suspenseful, emotional, compelling, and heart-pounding all at the same time. Lucky for you, there's a brand-new one that came out on Netflix on Friday, March 31: Bordertown. Oh, and the other thing about crime dramas is that just when you think the mystery is solved, something happens to pull you back in and leave you wanting more. If that's the case with this new series, I imagine that you're going to want to know if Bordertown will return for Season 2 as soon as possible.
No official word about Bordertown's fate has been announced by Netflix. However, a story published by Drama Quarterly in July 2016 featuring interviews with Matti Halonen and Lionel Uzan of Bordertown's production companies, Finland's Fisher King and France's Federation Entertainment, respectively, says that Season 2 of the series is "already in development."
Regardless of whether or not Bordertown will be back on Netflix in the future, you should totally start watching the drama when it premieres. There has been some buzz about the series around the world and in the United States, which must mean something, right? Bordertown's series premiere on Finland's YLE1 in October 2016 drew a record 1.1 million viewers, which is roughly a fifth of the country's population, according to the Nordisk Film & TV Fond. The series also took home the awards for Outstanding TV Drama, Best Actor (Ville Virtanen), and Best Actress (Anu Sinisalo) at the Finnish Golden Venla TV awards, basically Finland's version of the Emmys, in January, the Nordisk Film & TV Fond reports. With all of that popularity and acclaim, it seems very likely that more Bordertown will be in our future.
Plus, the synopsis of the series is just downright intriguing. Bordertown begins with Chief Investigator Kari Sorjonen (Virtanen) moving to a small town on the border of Finland and Russia with his wife and teenage daughter in an effort to enjoy a slower pace of life. But as the town's new police chief, Kari soon finds out that is the last thing he'll be getting as he's tasked with investigating a string of murders that he discovers are not only connected to each other but also to his family.
Bordertown is just the latest Scandinavian crime drama that's sure to wow audiences. The Killing was based on the Danish series Forbrydelsen. And let's not forget about Stieg Larsson's hit Millennium trilogy of novels and films.
In fact, if you're looking for another foreign-language crime drama to watch after you finish Bordertown, Netflix is most definitely your friend. Here are just a few of the streaming platform's original crime series that'll keep you on the edge of your seat.
At first, the case that opens Case seems pretty straightforward to investigators. After a teenage girl is found dead after appearing to hang herself, the autopsy confirms it's a suicide. But two attorneys and an investigator soon realize that there's more to this case than meets the eye, and they stop at nothing to find the truth in Case, whose first season is available to stream on Netflix. When everyone is a suspect in this Icelandic series, how could you not want to find out whodunnit?
Things go from bad to worse for Mexico's First Lady Emilia Urquiza (Kate del Castillo) in Ingobernable, whose first season recently premiered on Netflix. First, she decides to divorce her husband, who also just happens to be the president of Mexico, at the beginning of this series, and then her ex is soon found dead after falling from a building. When Emilia is found near the scene of the crime, well, the authorities go on a wild hunt for her, and she is just too tough to surrender. This Mexican series is giving me some serious Gone Girl vibes, and I like that.
'Hotel Beau Sejour'
You definitely don't want to book a room in Hotel Beau Sejour anytime soon. That's where teenage girl Kato Hoeven (Lynn Van Royen) finds her dead body in a bathtub after being brutally murdered. Kato is stuck between the living and the dead as she investigates her own murder in this Belgian series, whose first season is available to stream on Netflix. Most of her loved ones don't know that she's still walking around, but there are a few people that can actually see her. Think of Hotel Beau Sejour as an even darker Lovely Bones, if you can believe it.
'Historia De Un Clan'
Like Bordertown, Historia de un Clan is all about family. The one in this Argentinian series just happens to run a kidnapping and hostage ring, as families do. Actually, Historia de un Clan, whose first season is available to stream on Netflix, is based on a real-life crime family, the Puccios. I don't know what's creepier: all of the terrible things the family at the center of Historia de un Clan does to people or those unsettling rubber masks they wear while doing them.
'No Second Chance'
A kidnapping is also at the heart of No Second Chance, whose first season is available to stream on Netflix. After Dr. Alice Lambert (Alexandra Lamy) wakes up in the hospital, she learns that she survived being shot, her husband was killed, and their daughter was kidnapped. Alice plays by their rules and hands over ransom money in an effort to get her daughter back, but when they get wind that she has alerted the authorities, whoever has her baby is keeping her and isn't offering up any second chances. Alice soon realizes that she's got to think and act like a criminal if she wants any hope of getting her daughter back. No Second Chance is a French adaptation of American author Harlan Coben's novel of the same name.
'El Marginal'
El Marginal is as gritty as TV shows come. The Argentinian drama, whose first season is available to stream on Netflix, follows a troubled former police officer named Miguel (Juan Minujn) who agrees to go undercover in jail in order to reduce his own prison sentence. You see, a judge's daughter was kidnapped, and he's hoping that Juan can gain some intel so they can track her down. Of course, dealing with the inmates won't be easy, and it seems like a life of crime will be tempting for Juan, too.
See, didn't I tell you there are plenty of exciting foreign-language dramas to keep you entertained while you hope for Bordertown to return?

Last year, in honor of the Academy Awards broadcast, we marvelously presented a history of Oscar fiascos. This year, in honor of the upcoming Academy Awards broadcast, we'll be the fiasco. You see, we're not really that excited about the show this year. Sure, Jon Stewart's a card and it will be terribly exciting to hear "bitches" uttered during the ceremony. But, really, eh.
OK, fine, we're rilly lazy today, and the interns are on a bus trip to Woodbury Commons, so we have even less help than usual. That said, here's what you can find in this year's Oscar goody bag. Or, rather, what you can't find as you're obviously not attending. Chances are if you're reading this site, you can't even afford a TV. Anyway, here's the swag (how sad it is that the Cheese Impresario will once again be passing by our door).
And, because you didn't ask, here are our predictions for the winners of the top categories:
Best picture: Brokeback Mountain
Best director: Ang Lee
Best actress: Reese Witherspoons
Best actor: Philip Seymour Hoffman
Best supporting actress: Rachel Weisz
Best supporting actor: Matt Dillon
Best original screenplay: Crash
Best adapted screenplay: Brokeback Mountain
Semper snoozefest! Oh well, at least Robert Altman is getting an Oscar. Finally. Nashville and 3 Women are two of our most favoritest movies. If you haven't seen both, do yourself a favor: be a good fag and go rent them. NOW.
Happy Oscaring!

RYE, N.Y. – This moment will always stand out for Alicia Nickolenko.
The sophomore forward on the Wesleyan University women's ice hockey team notched her first collegiate goal on Friday evening in season-opening action, but Manhattanville received a two-goal and one-assist performance by junior forward Nicole Mensi during a 3-1 win in Rye, N.Y.
- The Valiants (2-2-0, 0-2-0 UCHC) drew first blood on the power play with 9:38 remaining in the first period, as sophomore forward Amanda Sabia sent a shot into the back of the net, assisted by Mensi and senior forward Sarah Sinning.
- Wesleyan earned its own power-play marker on Nickolenko's tally, which was designed by a couple heads-up passes from juniors Sarah Goss and Grace Keogh. Goss, who has assumed an assistant-captain role this winter, will be a crucial factor to Wesleyan's defensive effort this year, and Keogh will look to build off her sophomore campaign, which included a pair of assists in 16 games.
- Mensi and Sabia traded positions for Manhattanville in the second, with Mensi scoring and Sabia providing the assist at the 6:22 mark, and the tally ended up being the decisive goal. Wesleyan's comeback hopes took a big hit with 5:42 left in the second, as Mensi struck again, with Sabia and senior defensewoman Kristi Peters orchestrating the play.
- Wesleyan is looking to continue building off its strong 2016-17 campaign, which included qualifying for the NESCAC Tournament for the first time since the 2013-14 year. Tenth-year head coach Jodi McKenna has led the squad to the conference playoffs five times, and in 2013-14, helped the team claim the No. 5 slot with a 5-6-5 conference record.
- Freshmen Maggie Curran, Sarah Takahashi and Sydnee Goyer, and junior Hedi Droste all made their debuts as Cardinals on Friday.
- Manhattanville held a 43-21 edge in shots, but sophomore goalie Allegra Grant continued to demonstrate her immense talent in between the pipes for Wesleyan, turning away 40 shots. She jumped right in last season and earned the starting gig, appearing in 18 games and compiling a 6-9-3 record. The Winnetka, Ill. native led the unit in goals-against average (1.75), save percentage (.947), saves (572) and shutouts (four).
- Valiants sophomore goalie Taylor Elias earned the win on a 20-save night. Senior captain Alex Horton and senior Cici Frattasio paced the visitors with five shots apiece, and sophomore forward Colleen Castro pitched in with four.
- Manhattanville was powered by five-shot outings from Mensi and Sinning. Wesleyan went 1-for-3 on the power play, and Manhattanvile was 1-for-5 on the advantage.
- The Cardinals will compete in their home opener on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. against Post University at the Spurrier-Snyder Rink in Middletown, Conn.

Vaux has announced plans to begin work on some new material. The band's last record, Beyond Virtue, Beyond Vice took ten months to release, slipping from an October 25th release on Atlantic, to an August release via their own Vx Record.
The band explained:
Plans have been finalized. Vaux will be in Detroit from 23 April thru 06 May 2007 recording six to seven new songs. our good friend Chris Koltay has been kind enough to let us record at his studio, High Bias Recordings, for a very reasonable price.
We're very excited to be recording some new material. we're very happy with the way these new songs are turning out. we have a couple rockers …. and a couple different types. we can't wait to have them finished-up and ready to pass out.

EcoZoom East Africa (EcoZoom), a new addition to MCE's Small and Growing Business (SGB) portfolio, is a for-profit social enterprise and certified B Corporation founded in 2013 in Kenya, with the goal of supplying healthy, efficient, ecofriendly products to base-of-the-pyramid consumers. EcoZoom designs and manufactures two main product lines — solar powered lamps and portable, clean-burning cookstoves. As EcoZoom's goal is to serve the base of the pyramid, the company strives to maintain low operating costs in order to provide affordable, high-value energy solutions that benefit both consumers and the environment. Consequently, the company's products are cheaper and more efficient than the competition in terms of fuel consumption (for cookstoves) and number of hours per charge (for solar lamps).
EcoZoom designs its products, works with manufacturing partners for production and partners with four types of intermediaries to reach base-of-the-pyramid consumers across East Africa. These intermediaries include:
- Commercial enterprises (such as microfinance institutions), savings and credit cooperative organizations (SACCOs), financial services associations (FSAs), and banks that facilitate the upfront purchase or financing of solar lamps and cookstoves for profit;
- Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that subsidize products for low-income customers;
- Employers, who purchase the product in bulk and sell to employees through payroll deductions;
- Relief and humanitarian organizations, who utilize EcoZoom's products to improve health and safety, particularly in refugee camps.
EcoZoom works closely with each intermediary to maximize sales, ensuring customers are having a positive experience with their products, and collaborating on marketing and training in local communities.
The social impact of EcoZoom's clean-burning cookstoves and solar-powered lamps is evident across a number of dimensions:
- Lower energy cost benefits — Naturally, the use of more energy-efficient products decreases energy costs for base-of-the-pyramid families, allowing them to save up extra cash for more productive activities, such as childhood education.
- Health benefits — Over 80% of households in Sub-Saharan Africa use wood, charcoal, or animal waste to fuel their cooking systems.[1] When burned, these items release carbon dioxide, methane, and other climate-changing gases into the home, creating household air pollution (HAP). Ongoing exposure to HAP can lead to respiratory infections such as emphysema and chronic bronchitis, which are especially dangerous in base-of-the-pyramid communities where it is often difficult to receive adequate medical treatment. In Kenya alone, respiratory infections from HAP are responsible for approximately 20,000 deaths a year.[2] An EcoZoom cookstove produces 60% less smoke than traditional, non-efficient cooking systems, significantly reducing exposure to HAP. This is particularly beneficial for women, who are most often responsible for cooking.
- Time-saving benefits and reduced gender-based violence — Base-of-the-pyramid families can spend up to 20 hours a week collecting wood and charcoal to serve their household energy needs.[3] In addition, when women and girls are sent to fetch resources like firewood in remote areas, they are more exposed to gender-based violence. EcoZoom's products require 70% less fuel than traditional energy systems, thus reducing the amount of time spent gathering resources and the risk of gender-based violence. This also frees up time to pursue other more productive activities, such as academic or professional endeavors.
- Environmental benefits — EcoZoom's cookstoves and solar-powered lamps help reduce deforestation and greenhouse gas emissions. Widespread use of these types of products has the potential to reduce the negative effects of climate change, especially in low-income and rural areas of developing countries.
In January 2018, MCE made a 24-month working capital loan of $180,000 to EcoZoom. This year, EcoZoom intends to increase sales in Kenya, further expand its distribution in Tanzania, and enter Uganda. As the company grows, it will require working capital debt financing to finance the manufacturing, transportation, and importation of its products. Our loan will finance these processes in the second quarter of 2018, supporting the expansion of the company's operations and impact.

1. Two Twin Comforters instead of one Queen/King (for couples)
This has been a game changer for my sleep. As someone who is sensitive to temperature and movement, having my own twin comforter instead of sharing a big one has made a noticeable difference. As a side sleeper, it's also nice to have my own blanket I can pull and put between . . .
1. If you are driving to a neighborhood where street parking is hard to find, just park in the first spot you see within 10 blocks of your destination. Then walk.
2. Treat your phone like a landline. Leave it at home when you go out. Don't worry - it will be waiting for you when you come home. Alternative: Leave it in the car when you go . . .
A lot of people have fitness resolutions for the New Year.
And most people make them WAY too ambitious.
It's really hard to start doing crossfit, or running, or yoga 3X per week, if previously:
Over dinner during this past New Year's Eve, a group of us sat around the table and all went around and said "For me, this is the year of ______________."
Every person filled in the blank with their theme for the year - their guiding principle.
For me, this is the year of generosity.
This year is all about being generous with . . .
This is the 7th and final part of Productivity Week.
A quick recap of what we've covered so far:

Part 2: What is productivity anyway? (Hint - it's NOT getting to inbox zero)
Part 3: Time - we don't have that much of it. Do you know how you spend yours?. . .

Sorry about not updating the blog since February…
It's a little funny, but bloggers have a habit of dropping out –unless they're specifically paid to maintain a blog.
I've been a blogger off and on for over 10 years and I've gone through hiatuses, but the boss said, "Get back to blogging or you should just give up the site."
Maybe he thinks we should do a blog about pet pictures. That could be fun.
The main thing that's brought me back to blogging is that a lot is happening –or is about to happen and it felt like using a blog regularly was a good idea.
I just won't be able to get as much in otherwise.
The Spartan Race is coming up in August. I have made little sustained progress, though I have lost a couple of pounds.
As of Sunday, I will be starting a grueling, new exercise plan and diet (Yay, journalism), which I'll be reporting on.
I hope this works. Race time is getting closer.
Also, next month (SPOILER), I'm taking on traveling the state of West Virginia. The idea is to hit 55 counties within roughly 30 days. Actually, it will be 55 counties in less than 30 days –more like 55 counties in roughly 12 days. That's about all I can do and still have even the barest hope of maintaining the other parts of my job.
I'm getting this information out a little early because I could use some help on this one.
I need places to maybe visit, possibly places to stay for the night.
So, if you want to help, chime in here with suggestions (including where these places might be found) or send me an email at email@example.com.

Crunchy Cauliflower and Cashew Salad happens to be one of my favorite salads, especially in the spring! It's fresh, creamy, crunchy, salty, and even healthy!
I saw a recipe similar to this Crunchy Cauliflower and Cashew Salad years ago. I knew right away I would love it! I also knew right away my family would not love it. My boys are not shy about proclaiming their dislike for onions, especially green ones, and dill. I LOVE green onions and dill! This recipe had the potential of tricking them into eating both green onions and dill and getting them to like it! After all, boys will eat anything tossed in ranch dressing!
I had been dying to try making this salad in a healthier version. The other day I made it and it was superb! Three of my four boys ate it and they liked it! That means this Crunchy Cauliflower and Cashew Salad rocks! I think it is perfect for Easter dinner, barbecues or potlucks! It always goes fast! It's a good thing too, because this salad doesn't keep very long. In fact don't stir the cashew in, or sprinkle them on top until just before you serve the salad. Otherwise they loose their crunch!
Crunchy Cauliflower and Cashew Salad
- 2 c. cauliflower florets
- 2 c. frozen peas thawed
- 1/8 c. sliced green onions more to taste
- 1/4 c. diced Swiss cheese optional
- 3 T. dry ranch dressing and dip seasoning
- 1/2 t. dried dill weed
- 1/2 c. plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 c. sour cream low fat if desired
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 c. cashews
- In a small mixing bowl mix together yogurt, sour cream, ranch seasoning, dill, salt and pepper. Thin with a little milk if it looks to thick. You want it a little thinner than the consistency of sour cream.
- Add peas, cauliflower, onions and cheese (if desired) to a large mixing bowl. Toss.
- Pour yogurt mixture over veggies and toss to coat. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper.
- Cover and chill for an hour.
- Just before serving sprinkle with cashews. May toss the cashew in with the veggies if desired.

We got up not tooo early, and caught the metro down to Helsinki. Our destination was Suomenlinna, The Suomenlinna maritime fortress, is more than 260 years old, is a Unesco World Heritage Site and one of the most popular sights in Finland. The walls of the fortress can be seen all over Suomenlinna,
We met all met Sari at the ferry, got our tickets then hopped on the boat. It was only a short 5-10 minute ride to the island.
I will at this stage tell you that despite the blue skies, it was FREEZING. A bitterly cold wind, and I don't think it got above 6C all day. I was glad to borrow one of Jaana's coats.
First stop off the boat was the Suomenlinna Church. It was originally was built as a Russian Orthodox garrison church in 1854. The original building had five steeples with onion domes. The appearance of the church – which dominates the southern horizon from Helsinki – was changed at the beginning of the Finnish era in the 1920s, when it was converted into an Evangelical-Lutheran church.
Inside was seating enough for 400 people. To be honest it didn't look that big. I loved the simplicity inside, and the beautiful light hanging from the dome. The church steeple doubles as a lighthouse for air and sea traffic. The signal blink of the lighthouse is the Morse code for the letter "H" for Helsinki. This is something I noticed when I was in Tallinn two days earlier - as we docked I noticed all the churches had flashing lights - obviously doubling up as lighthouses.
After we had explored the church we set upon the rest of the island. Up this road then left through an arch in the building and we came across the Great Courtyard.
The courtyard was completed in the 1760s, designed by the architect Augustin Ehrensvärd, and served as the main square of the fortress. The houses surrounding the courtyard included the fortress commandant's house and the main guard house.
The Great Courtyard was badly damaged during the Crimean War in 1855, but it is still an impressive sight. The grave of Augustin Ehrensvärd lies in the courtyard (below), surrounded today by the Ehrensvärd museum and some residential buildings.
This is what the stone buildings looked like inside. I imagine they would have been used for storage of armaments.
On our walk we came across a couple of canons and we had a bit of fun with them...
Barracks - bright yellow and wooden.
A few locals were checking us out. In case you didn't know, these are Egyptian Geese.
Anne waited for me to catch up to everyone as I had got behind photographing the birds. It was cold, but at least here she would have been out of the terrible wind.
To give you an idea how cold it was - that is S N O W! Note how rocky the coast is. I noticed that Finland itself was very rocky, and lots of little islands - all quite flat - nothing very high above sea level.
We climbed up to the canons for a look...
Took a couple of photos...
But didn't hang around for long up there, once again because of the cold. Also - although the sky was blue in that direction, a huge rain/storm cloud was following behind us!
Sari the photographer extraordinaire...
In front of a store house... These are just built into the hillsides.
We wonder if this was a swimming pool, or a water reservoir. We never did find out.
Another storage facility built into the hillside.
At this stage it was so cold, we found a pizza place an stopped in for some hot drinks and to thaw out. We had a great time and I later found out that Pizza place was world famous. Had I known, I would have tried some food! I was very reluctant to get back out in the cold again!
This is the Kings Gate and the symbol of Suomenlinna. It was built between 1753 and 1754 as the entrance gateway to the fortress. The gate was built on the site where the ship carrying the founder of the fortress, King Adolf Frederick of Sweden, was anchored while he inspected the construction of the fortress in 1752. It too was damaged in the Crimean war, and has been refurbished a few times since.
Sari - the Pro Photographer...
We decided it was too cold to hang around much longer, so headed back through the tunnel and back to the ferry.
We could see Helsinki in the distance, and could see the Cathedral clearly.
Back on dry land, we met another of Jaana's friends - also called Sari. We are wondering if Jaana makes friends with all the same name, to make it easier for her to remember names! Sari was a specialist in Finnish History so was an excellent companion in our sightseeing. She talked about the architecture around Helsinki and told us the architects were Russian. It was really interesting. I wish I had taken notes! These next two images show the houses along the waterfront and docks, and these were originally the first houses of wealthy merchants.
You can see the Greek Orthodox Church in the distance which we visited the day before..
Sari holding the history book, while Sari points out the buildings.
Sari makes an excellent bookstand - a woman of many talents - photographer - bookstand....
We then stopped for lunch at an Italian restaurant - again a nice warm up with good food. By now the day was nearly over - so we jumped on a tram afterwards and was taken to The Church in the Rock. While on the Tram we looked out the window to see a guy peeing in the middle of the street. Jaana explained that drinking problems are rampant in Finland. Very sad.
The Church in the Rock was amazing. The Architecture incredible. The entrance was quite ordinary, but once through it was amazing...
Temppeliaukio Church or Temppeliaukion kirkko, is a Lutheran church in the Töölö neighborhood of Helsinki. The church was designed by architects and brothers Timo and Tuomo Suomalainen and opened in 1969. It is also known as the Church of the Rock.
The interior was excavated and built directly out of solid rock and is bathed in natural light which enters through the glazed dome. The church is used frequently as a concert venue due to its excellent acoustics. The acoustic quality is created by the rough, virtually unworked rock surfaces.
The ceiling is beautiful copper - must be worth a lot of money!
The Altar - simple and beautiful with bare rock.
Pretty amazing architecture, and I loved it. So different to what I had seen before. The Temppeliaukio church is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the city; half a million people visit it annually and the idiosyncratic choice of form has made it a favorite with professionals and aficionados of architecture. Great for photographers too !
We headed back to Jaana's, stopping at the supermarket first to pick-up 20 euros worth of Finnish Chocolate - the best in the world. I miss it, wish I could get a good supply over here. We said goodbye to Sari - as we had an early start the next morning to get to the airport - Anne was flying back to the Netherlands, and I to Munich. Sari was so concerned we wouldn't make it to the airport in time, that she decided to come back and stay the night, and take Anne and I out there herself. We can't thank Jaana enough for her hospitality, and Sari enough for her generosity. We enjoyed our days immensely with both.
I learnt that there are no language barriers between friends.

VidMuze believes that their tutorial series is an essential investment for anyone desiring to take their aerial cinematography, to new heights.
Asheville, NC (PRWEB) May 21, 2014
An exciting new training series combines the science of flying unmanned aircraft with the art of filmmaking. VidMuze, is the production company behind the world's first Multi-Rotor Tutorial Series for Filmmakers. The series consists of 24 highly detailed video lessons and more than 4.5 hours of content. Each video provides step-by-step instructions and demos to help aspiring aerial filmmakers achieve professional results. The tutorial series is mobile-friendly so that users can access the materials from anywhere in the world.
In early March, 2014 Judge Patrick Geraghty of the National Transportation Safety Board heard the appeal of the $10,000 FAA fine against Raphael Pirker (Administrator v. Raphael Pirker, NTSB Docket CP-217), who was fined after filming from an aerial drone for use in a promotional video for the University of Virginia. Judge Geraghty ruled that there was "no enforceable FAA rule" or regulation that applied to a UAS (unmanned aerial system) such as the one Pirker was flying. This ruling validated what many in the aerial UAS industry have been saying for years, that commercial use of UAS' for filmmaking purposes was completely within the letter of the law.
From this judge's ruling, this now allows more opportunity for aerial cinematography to "take off." "The price continues to drop every day, making multi-rotors more affordable for filmmakers," says Mike Gentilini, Jr., founder and owner of VidMuze. Successful aerial cinematography requires a balance of science and art. Piloting a drone is the science, but that is merely half of the equation. The art is being able to compose and capture the stunning images that only these aircraft are able to reach.
"The technology is exciting, and often people start flying without understanding the safety rules and regulations." In response, the tutorial series also explains how to use safe flying techniques and redundant backup systems to minimize the risks of crashes. "Safety is a top priority in the aerial cinema industry," says Gentilini.
The video series explains the various multi-rotor types from quadcopters to hexacopters to octocopters, the heavy lifters. "Most people start out with a quadcopter, but more advanced users will want to upgrade to the larger ships because of increased stability and lifting heavier cinema cameras," says Gentilini.
"Most RC pilots know very little about cinematography. Likewise, most filmmakers know little about flying drones," says James Suttles, gimbal operator and cinematographer for VidMuze. VidMuze's production team has over 50 years of film experience and a decade of RC knowledge and skill. They've been training filmmakers how to combine those skills into an amazing new art form.
Multi-Rotor Tutorial Series for Filmmakers is now available online at http:// http://www.vidmuze.com/product/multi-rotor-tutorial-series-filmmakers.
VidMuze is now actively seeking resellers to join its worldwide affiliates program. Resellers and distributors are encouraged to contact VidMuze at, http://www.vidmuze.com/affiliates-for-multi-rotor-tutorial-series.

Hey, ya'all, I am visiting Houston, TX next week and I wanted to share a modeling agency highlight on the Houston area for aspiring models of all sizes. Here are some agencies to check out these three in Houston appeared legit and work with all ages.
I am looking for more legit agencies in Houston with a great rep, email me if you have had a great experience with an agency in Houston. Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
I don't care how long you have been around or who you've helped succeed, I care if you are legit, and not a scam!
( I do not support modeling schools or classes to be a model, or believe in paying crazy fees to work with agencies. Agencies take 20% of your pay from a booking. These days for print modeling agencies do not invest in their models such as making their comp cards, getting their portfolio, etc, this is something a model needs to buy on her own, go to the art store and get a PRATT portfolio. Use a printing service for your comp card and headshot. Don't fall for scams. These days it is about you discovering yourself and this doesn't involve getting scammed.)
Keep in mind these days anyone "scouting models" is a scam. Scouts back in the day seeked tall models and these days it has become scam-ville for a person to say "You could model!" so beware!
To work with a modeling agency you do not have to pay to use their photo services, and you do not have to pay for a modeling school or lessons,******** however you should be prepared to create and make your own comp cards and I suggest doing this through a printing service such as compcard.com and a professional agency that wants to work with you will at the very least work with the card you give them, even if it is not perfect, until you can improve it. DO NOT pay thousands for comp cards and photos, beware, it's a rip off! Also keep in mind you don't need a whole freaking portfolio to start modeling, you just need the basics shots. headshot, smile shot, standing catalog like shot, and a shot showing you CAN model a product naturally, like a cell phone, a handbag, a close up beauty shot is nice, and these shots can be basic, good lighting, and a professional photographer who understands print modeling is BEST to work with. But YOU should know ahead what YOU need for print modeling. Do your homework!
I believe in investing in yourself for yourself, not for an agency, until the agency is booking you consistant work, I would freelance non-exclusive with the agency and understand that you are your own best manager. Eyes open and do your research on the agencies ahead. Goodluck!
Aim high and Strive!

Having trouble? Please reach out to firstname.lastname@example.com
What's New
Version 20.01.10
Bug Fixes
• Fixed: Workspaces were sometimes showing a default workspace icon (a letter on a colored background) instead of the nice custom icon they had been given. Behold: they are beautiful once more. Or, at the very least, correct. Which is sometimes all we can aspire to.
• Fixed: Some complex URLs were incorrectly being treated like email addresses. They will now be treated… wait for it… like URLs.
• Fixed: In a message from a bot, buttons and menus configured to respond to a user's actions weren't actually doing that. This was not the first stage in a robot uprising: it was merely a bug. And is no more.
Ratings and ReviewsSee All
Slack Icon update, thumbsdown!
I don't mind the logo, but I am disappointed in the newest update to make the icon background white. Should at the very list provide the option to chose the background color icon in the app.
Another issue I have been experiencing with slack on iOS is with notifications. Often times, but not always, it will make the notification sound and show the notification on the lock screen for just a moment before it disappears. So unless my phone is next to me, I would not know there was a notification that went off. When you use slack to receive alerts for oncall, this is very bad.
Should also implement a dark mode for the app itself.
Slide into my DMs
Using slack is easy, it's convenient and I recommend it. The ONE thing that I wish were different is the DMs. I'm in THREE separate workspaces with overlapping members in the group. Sending a DM to one person in one workspace means not seeing the private message thread when sending a DM to the SAME person in another workspace. We have a workspace for the village in which our Burning Man camp lives to communicate with the village leads. We have a camp message to chat amongst us as camp members. Some of us in that camp are involved in an art project that includes other people. There's no good way to keep up the DMs with the people who also are in my same workspaces across all the workspace. As you can imagine, DMs are usually OT and all over. This is the one thing that could use a tweek, IMO.
Great tool
We use in our small law office. We had to write some of our own "best practice rules" (like phone message channels only get phone messages, no gifs in general, snooze when you aren't answering) but it's been a great tool for our office. Easy way to be sure you're keeping up with your team without getting in to email all the time. We love it because if person a has a question for person b, a send the question and b gets to answer when they have the time in their day. Minimize interruptions while also allowing the person with a question to say it when they're thinking about it. We love slack. It's AOL instant messenger for professionals. I do wish it was easier to upload images etc without the comments being a weird title.
