Founded the University of Minnesota Underground Laboratory at Soudan in 1979 and supervised the expansion of the laboratory in 1984-1986; also collaborated in the second expansion in 1999-2001. Although the Soudan Laboratory is now closed, for 37 years, this Laboratory added about ~$100 million to the economy of an underdeveloped region of the United States, while pursuing cutting-edge physics research. Established and encouraged outreach activities at Soudan, including a public visitor program, an open day, use of media to explain basic research. Started unique Physics Global Studies course, which takes undergraduate students abroad for a three-week intensive experience (2003, 2005, 2008, 2010). Founded the University of Minnesota Residential College, a program that included up to 450 undergraduate students and integrated academic and residential activities. Represented the 3,000 members of the University of Minnesota faculty in interactions with the Governor and Legislature of Minnesota. Served the University of Minnesota as its Senior Vice-President and Chief Academic Officer during the 1996-1997 conflict between the University Regents and faculty regarding policies on faculty tenure. He also participated in the management of the University's reorganization of its biological sciences programs and the $225 million sale of the University Hospital. Played a significant role in raising $4 million to endow a Theoretical Physics Institute. Also raised approximately $0.5 million to endow the Abigail and John Van Vleck Lectureship in Physics, which has attracted nearly 20 Nobel-laureate lecturers. Often served as a Visiting Scientist in K-12 schools, principally in a program sponsored by the Science Museum of Minnesota and the Blandin Foundation. Supervised the construction and operation of the NOvA Ash River Laboratory, including the installation of the 14,000 ton NOvA Far Detector.
I collaborate in experiments to determine the characteristics of the fundamental forces in Nature with an emphasis on the properties of neutral, leptonic elementary particles known as neutrinos. I also study very high energy cosmic rays which are incident on the earth from outer space to determine their nature and origin. A long-term interest is non-thermal stars as a possible source of cosmic radiation.
I teach introductory physics courses with an emphasis on calculus-based classes primarily intended for students with interests in science, engineering and mathematics.

New Delhi : The Centre's recent decision to hike duty on imported medical devices and reduction of taxes on raw material will catalyse Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Make in India' vision and end "discriminatory taxation regime" against domestic manufacturers, a medical device manufacturing body today said.
Association of Indian Medical Device Manufacturers (AIMED) said the move will end "grossly discriminatory taxation regime" against domestically manufactured goods which has resulted in making the country import-dependent in this sector.
"The move is the first big boost to unshackle India from perilous import dependency in a critical sector. It will catalyse domestic manufacturing of medical devices and will go a long way in ensuring big success to PM Modi's 'Make in India' mission," said Rajiv Nath, Forum Coordinator of AIMED.
The Finance Ministry had recently communicated that customs duty on medical device on certain medical devices have been increased from 5 per cent to 7.5 per cent and special additional duty (SAD) of 4 per cent has been re-imposed.
The ministry has reduced import duty on raw material for manufacture of medical devices.
AIMED claimed that the earlier taxation anomalies had made imports far cheaper than domestically produced goods as taxation burden on domestic manufacturers were far higher.
The earlier taxation regime which was "heavily biased towards imports" had resulted in significant cost differential between domestically manufactured goods and imports, making imports far cheaper.
India has general import dependency of over 70 per cent in medical devices and up to 90 percent percent in niche and electronic medical device segment, it said.

So this week we have been planning to go to the Golden Isles for a long weekend. No, it's not vacation. I'm finishing my moving out process. It also means the last of my stuff is coming up here. It's a good thing Mel cleaned up the barn. It will be stored there until our tiny houses are built. We are still a couple months away from that.
Mel has been working 9-1 each day at her job. It seems that home office finally decided to train her in her job. After a year. Government jobs, ya gotta love them, right? She's been hopping between one location to another on a daily basis instead of two days a week. It seems that they are coming up on funding review and that's the reason they are doing it now in a hurry.
Our free video editor went to pay for use. We had made several videos during the past couple of weeks and needed to edit them before uploading them. It made for a flurry of internet searches to find a new one so we could edit our YouTube videos. I suggested just buying a program out right with Mel arguing that we should be able to get a fairly decent one for free. We finally found one that we both could agree on after each trying a couple of them. So we are back in business.
It doesn't help that Mel's truck windshield got hit by a rock on her last trip with me. The little ding spread with our heat wave to show a crack almost to mid line of her windshield. She got pulled over for it and was given a warning. Joy, joy. What fun she is having out and about. I took her Tuesday and we carpooled it back to the homestead for more fun with rabbits and pickles.
|Tempest, Blue English Angora
As many know, rabbits can sleep with their eyes open. She is a heavy sleeper. Tempest has to be around here with the chickens, dogs and cats. She's been loving her time in the bunny hospital aka Mel's air conditioned bedroom. She was flopped over on her side when Mel went to check on her. Mel being Mel spoke to her through the cage in a loud, corny voice she does. Mel even poked her through the cage. Tempest would not rouse. Mel thought she had lost another English Angora. The rabbit was only sleeping because when Mel reached into the cage and picked her up, the rabbit looked at her with a startled look. I might also mention this rabbit has been treated for a body mites. So she's almost hairless. She looks so pitiful.
|Dustin, Gray English Angora
Mel came rushing in from checking on the rabbits Monday. "Dustin has diarrhea! What do I do?" Nothing will kill a rabbit faster than diarrhea in the summer time. They can't drink enough to keep them hydrated. I told her to empty out his cage. To give him only timothy hay and put some apple cider vinegar into a clean water holder. We bleach and clean their water bottles and food dishes routinely. In fact, we had done it over the weekend. Nothing had changed drastically in his environment to cause the stomach upset. After Mel returned from work, she bathed his hind end of all the mess. Straw and poop everywhere.
In the end, so to speak, there was nothing wrong with him. What Mel thought was diarrhea was just rabbit poo drenched with urine. Once cleaned off, he was his usual playful self and getting into everything. She clipped his poo trail because I'm dangerous with scissors. Now electric shearers is a different story, I can handle those fine. We have yet to get those. They can be a bit pricey for good ones. But they are in the budget for two months from now with the purchase of the new rabbits.
In the garden, I have been waiting and on tomato watch. The one and only tomato we had earlier this month has been joined by about fifty or more little tomatoes. Considering the tomato plants themselves are now 6' high, it's about time. That first tomato started to go yellowish-orange. I could almost taste it. The first tomato to harvest from our new beds. Every morning I'd go out and peruse my tiny garden. I'd retrain feeler vines, talk to the plants themselves and hand pick any varmint that was trying to damage them. The chickens have gotten used to my routine because they wait for me to throw the offenders over the fence for them to munch on.
This first tomato was my pride and joy. It had gotten so heavy that it carried its branch to the ground. I placed straw under it to cushion it from the ground. It was now on its way to be harvested. Imagine my surprise to find that 6" tomato half eaten this week. I picked it up from its cozy bed and just stared at it. It was then I noticed not the rounded bite marks of an insect or even a rabbit, but the "V" shaped bite marks of a chicken. GRRRR! I threw the tomato into the compost bin. The chickens raced for it, and then squawked loudly because I'd thrown it into the center and they couldn't reach it.
I know, I know, I always seem to complain about the chickens, but can you blame me? Yes, they give us eggs but compared to what we've lost is free eggs really worth it? Something doesn't balance. Around here right now, we are the Cockeyed Homestead under chicken rule. The chicken building can't get here fast enough. Unfortunately, too late for a garden this year.
Next year, I'm (human) taking control back. (Laughing wickedly and maniacally) I will rule, or so they will let me think so. Yes, insanity is hereditary. It's gleaned from rampant homestead animals and plants. No, not the illegal kind of plants either. If not careful not only will be talking to yourself but answering yourself too.
Okay, so I'm dreaming now. Any minute now Whitie will crow and wake me up. Ah, there he is now. It was a nice dream while it lasted. The Cockeyed Homestead is brought to you by the letters D, B, and C for Darn, Blasted Chickens. It's a good thing I'm not home right now. I hear sirens approaching to come and take me away from the homestead.
I watched this a couple of years ago. Enjoy while we're away. Shaking my head sadly. I didn't read between the lines and listen to her.

They were up at eight to go with mother-in-law, granny, and sister-in-law to the beauty shop. "Bob" had already left the apartment and wouldn't be seen until the wedding in the early evening. Mother-in-law had insisted that Aunty Kat come along as well. Sister-in-law drove them all to a little parlour next to a 7-Eleven. An older woman with purple highlights and a flaming, middle-aged man with dyed-blonde hair and tight pants were there to greet them with green tea. The two immediately started fussing over Sara. She hated it. She wore makeup once in a blue moon, and often cut her own hair. There were only three barbershop chairs in the little shop, and mother-in-law and Colleen were seated in the other two. Sister-in-law and Kat sat on a couch near the front door.
"I really don't think I need to do anything with my hair, do you Colleen?" Kat queried. The bouffant had been the same since the 1960s so it was doubtful that it ever would change.
"Just get it washed and set. That should be fine."
"You're probably right. MI-YOUNG? YOU CAN TELL THEM JUST WASH AND SET. OKAY?"
"Pardon me?"
"Set? Set where?"
" Aaaah! Style! You onry want washee and style."
"Yes. This our shop. We are coming many times. Owner is mother priend."
"Pardon me?"
Kat motioned to the woman who was brushing out Sara's hair and the man who was tying a cover around mother-in-law's neck. "YOUR MOTHER'S FRIEND IS THAT LADY OR THE HOMOSEXUAL MAN?"
"I don' understand."
"Sara, I don't think she can speak English very well."
"I'm solly. My Englishee no good." Mi-Young covered her mouth in embarrassment.
But it seemed the woman with purple tints had understood something, and she quickly translated to everyone else.
"Yaka yaka yaka. Yaka yaka homo yaka yaka yaka."
All the Koreans burst out laughing, apart from the "homosexual" man.
"YAKA! YAKAYAKAYAKAYKAYKAYKAYKAYAKYAKYKAYAKYAA!" He shouted.
"You thinking Mr. Park is homo?"
"Mr. Park no homo. I think he angry. Yaka yaka yaka!" All the Korean women laughed again. Mr. Park was not amused, and flung his faux-blonde locks in protest.
Suddenly Sara noticed that Ms. Purple-tints had placed a strip of white cloth on her forearm. With one graceful swoop, the cloth was ripped off her arm, pulling out every single hair with it.
"Whaaaaa! MOTHER FUCKER! WHAT THE FUCKING HELL!" This made Mr. Park laugh. Mi-Young came running. Mother-in-law kept on asking "Yaka yaka yaka?"
"Sa-La! What is wrong?"
"What the HELL was that? My God!" She cradled her stinging arm up to her chest.
"Oh, Mrs. Lee do waxing. Foreigner woman have many hair. She take it out. Now she do other arm."
"No WAY!"
"Well, honey you will look rather silly if you have one hairy arm and the other hairless." Mom patted her on the shoulder, also grinning slightly at her daughter's misfortune.
"I don't care!"
"Sara? You should do it for your wedding day." Kat added.
"Okay. Okay. Just give me a minute to prepare. Mi-Young, don't let her do it until I'm ready."
"Yes. I tell her. Then after we can do other part."
"What other part?"
Mi-Young smiled. "Yaka yaka yaka," she said to the others. They all laughed. Mr. Park pointed to his own crotch area and winked.
"NO!" Sara's response was heard all the way to China.
Two hours later they left the beauty parlour. Kat was thrilled with the little "pearls" Mr. Park had glued into her bouffant. Sara had thought that for a 'straight man' he had seemed a bit too enthusiastic about doing it. Mother-in-law had insisted that Sara put her hair up saying something that sounded like "Tea-Ah-La!" Somehow Ms. Purple-tints had managed to convince mom to lose the red streaks, and her hair was no a pleasant tint of mocha. Sister-in-law looked like a vestal virgin with her hair pulled up and back, and falling in ringlets down her neck. They all climbed into sister-in-law's car. Well, Sara had hobbled.
"Sara, you hardly look like an excited bride. It wouldn't hurt you to smile," mom whispered.
"You try smiling after someone has ripped every hair off your pussy!"
"Sara! Language!"
"What am I supposed to call it then?"
"You can just say something like 'my private area.'"
In the front seat, mother-in-law and sister were deeply involved in a discussion. It seemed like a very serious matter. Sister-in-law then turned back to face Sara.
"My mudder has thing to speak you."
"Oh, okay."
"Solly my Englishee no good. But I try speak por my mudder."
"Yaka? Yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka."
"Mudder say many woman scare of wedding night."
"Yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka sex-uh yaka yaka yaka."
"She say make the sex uncomportable some woman."
"Yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka."
"But you must to do it, even though the pain."
"Yaka yaka yaka."
"You must…uh…endure."
"Yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka sex-uh yaka yaka yaka sex-uh yaka yaka."
"Even if peeling is very torture, you must endure. Man need a sex or he go to prostitute. And sex make a baby."
"Yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka, sex-uh yaka yaka yaka yaka."
"But if your peeling is can't survive the sex because pain…"
"…yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka yaka."
"You can try the mouse pressure."
"Excuse me?" Sara asked.
"Uh…bery embarrass I am peeling. You can try mouse pressure." Mi Young covered her face with her hands and giggled. Granny cackled too. But mother-in-law seemed quite serious about the whole issue.
"MI-YOUNG, SHE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND YOU! CAN YOU SPEAK IN ENGLISH?" Kat hollered.
"Oh my God." It was mom. Mom never used profanity…well, almost never.
"What?" Sara asked, turning to face Colleen.
Mom whispered in her hear "I think what she's saying is that you can always give 'mouth pleasure.' And you thought our family was nuts."
"I get it!" Kat exclaimed. "She means a blow job!" Colleen and Sara's necks whipped around to stare at Aunty Kat.
"But don't do that Sara. I tell Wesley just on birthdays and at Christmas-time. Or just when he gets really cranky. It calms him right down. What? Why are you staring at me like that? Tack-Spoon told me about it. He says it always lifts Joe's spirits right up."
Sara looked to her mother, "Yeah, well I still think our family gets the gold medal for nut-jobs."
The wedding ceremony was over within 30 minutes. All the preparation of hair, dresses, photographs, flowers, instructions…and everything was over in 30 minutes. The minister spoke in Korean, so Sara didn't understand a word. "Bob" had to nod at her when she was supposed to say "I do." Her husband was very dashing in his tuxedo. Well, apart from the makeup. Why did they put makeup on him? And the white gloves? Okay, so the truth was, he looked like a valet. But his smile was the most important thing. Aunty Kat bawled softly. Even dad had whispered "if he ever does anything to hurt you I'll cut off his balls" as he walked her down the aisle. Everything was perfect. Mom looked stunning in her Korean hanbok of lilac. The wedding dress was still hideous, and Sara had learned in the afternoon that "tea-ah-la" had meant even tackier tiara. But mother-in-law and granny had cooed in admiration when they saw her in it for the first time. In the mirror Sara thought she looked like Jean Benet Ramsay.
When they were finally pronounced husband and wife "Bob" lightly brushed her lips with his and they turned to face the guests. The Bells were to the left. Dad wore a navy suit and deep red tie, obviously purchased for him by the Angel who was a vision of beige crepe. Uncle Wes had polished off his silver bolo-tie and looked like a dashing sheriff sitting next to…well, what can only be described as a fat Benazir Bhutto. Kat was wearing a full-on Shalwar Kameez. Mom said that Kat explained to her that she was going to wear "traditional Asian clothes" because it was an Asian wedding. It wouldn't have been so bad, apart from the fact that the dress was lime green and the pantaloons were yellow…and she had sewn pink, silk flowers across the front. Before the ceremony in the dressing room, Rupa had started to explain to her aunt that the outfit was from Pakistan…but then she stopped and just shook her head and said "you look nice."
Rupa and Ryan smiled at her from the audience and Tiffany held up a camera to take a picture. Uncle Joe beamed with joy and Tak-Sin looked like he had been crying. Sara held onto "Bob's" hand even more tightly then turned to him.
"We did it."
"I know. We are married."
"I mean we survived two whole days with our families. When can we leave?"
There was no honeymoon. "Bob" had taken another job at a marketing firm and so he was not eligible yet for long vacations. His boss had promised him a week in January so they could go to Bali. Sara took three extra days off as Uncle Joe and Tak-Sin were going to travel around Asia a bit and wanted to visit for a couple days in Osaka.
They all spent one more day in Seoul. The in-laws took them all to the palaces in Seoul which Uncle Wes declared to be "nothin' but a bunch of brightly coloured barns" and to a temple. Of course Aunty Kat wouldn't go into the temple as "My God is a jealous God and I don't think he'd want a member of his flock in a place filled with idols." She pouted when nobody else agreed to stand up for her religious convictions. And throughout the day Tak-Sin was in a foul mood and kept punching Uncle Joe in the ribs from time to time as they toured around the city.
"Why are you doing that?" Sara asked after she saw him jab Joe in the side while they were walking through the art district.
"He is a dirty old man. I see him looking all these cute Asian boys!"
"Whatever. It's okay for me to look at the menu as long as I don't order anything." Joe defended himself.
"No! You don't look at the menu either!"
"What the heck? You haven't cared before. In fact we even look at guys together at home!"
"That's different. Here there are too many cute Asian guys. Korean guys are tall and handsome…too many handsome guys here. I don't like it."
"You're just jealous."
"Of course I am jealous! When I am NOT jealous then maybe there is a problem."
"Ouch! What the Hell?"
"You were looking at that tall boy's bum. I saw!"
"I don't know what you're talking about. Seems to me YOU were looking at the tall boy's bum."
"See Sara? Your uncle is dirty old man. I think he was even looking at Bob. You should be careful."
Sara laughed. Tiffany called Tak-Sin to come and see some hair accessories that a woman was selling on the street.
"You guys really inspired me, ya know?" she said to her uncle.
"How so?"
"Well, after all these years you're still so much in love with each other."
"Of course. Why wouldn't we be? We loved each other from the beginning."
"But you guys have been the one constant for me. The couple that I could look up to and see that relationships do last."
"Oh good grief. Don't get all mushy on me. You know, I never give people advice. I don't think anyone listens anyway, and usually it comes off as condescending to give others advice. But I will tell you one thing. There is one thing that everyone can do to make sure a relationship will work. Of course it is only my experience. Are you ready for it? The magic advice?"
"What, are you expecting a drum roll?"
"That would be nice. Anyway, it's very simple. Don't hurt your partner. That's it. Don't do anything that you know would hurt him. Sure, unintentionally we may do things that are hurtful. But if you ever find yourself in a position where you know that something you are about to do or say would hurt them…don't."
"You get that from Oprah Winfrey?"
"Oh no, my dear. Someone much older and wiser. Joan Rivers."

The Morningstar paper is essentially assuming future returns will be lower than inflation, which seems a fairly extreme position to me. (With zero inflation and a 100% cash portfolio earning no interest, a 2.1% withdrawal rate gives you 47 years before you run out of money.) Also it's instructive to compare this figure with what can be obtained simply by buying an annuity at age 55 (which are generally considered not great value for money?)I don't understand why one's home country should have a significant effect on future returns. Putting aside the house I live in, I could be 100% invested outside the UK if I chose. That wasn't the case until recently.
Empirically, around 80% of the time the client would end up with more money than they started with by drawing down 3% rates....Should we really be basing client plans on the idea we are going to get market conditions that are worse than World War I and World War II type scenarios?

DJ Lou
Born in Santa Monica Ca in 1977, Lou was always moved by music and fell in to the likes of Disco in the mid 80s and always had an ear for electronic music as it progressed in the late 80s and early 90s. He began his musical career soon after he attended his first underground party in 1990. He was instantly drawn to the uniting vibe of loud music and the underground feel of the dark and hidden warehouses where our scene was born. From Hip-Hop (Sean Perry) to the break beat, tech-House sounds of DJ Dan, DJ Flash Barry Weaver and Doc Martin, Lou was inspired to explore the world of the DJ and soon he was sharing the music that he had grown to love and appreciate with beat lovers like himself.
Lous artistic tastes have progressed much and he has since developed a deep love for house music. When asked to describe his current playing influence, Lou says, My style is any laid down, funky beat with deep bass lines and smooth, jazzy, disco loops
, music that makes your body move... Lou is very intent upon expressing his love for the underground through his melodic music and has played at countless events in the Los Angeles area with many local greats as well as talents from across the globe such as , Mark Farina, Miguel Migs, Julius Papp, Dj Sneak, Tony Senghore of Sweden, Jonene, Marques Wyatt, Mark Grant, Joeski, Frank Ryde, Onionz, Sameer (N.Y.C), Steve Loria and Jaime Thinnes.
As most artists at this point in their career, Lou is beginning to focus on the production and distribution of his own tracks. He has already released a mixed CD called Dancing on Sacred Grounds. He is also working with producers at Sedated Recordings in Los Angeles to soon be on their label. There can only be more magic to come from this amazing talent so stay informed and keep an ear out for the deep and funky sounds of DJ Lou.

The community that I am a part of came together and created Jungle Cafe in 2014 to create a restaurant that would provide Greenpoint with affordable vegetarian cuisine. Its been fun to be part of creating everything from the logo, to menus, to writing and designing a informational pamphlet about vegetarianism, to picking the paint swatches for the green paint to go on the outside of the building.

People have known herbal skin care and herbal beauty products since ancient times. Regular synthetic beauty products tend to contain harmful chemicals that might cause skin hazards. Herbal skin care products are usually made of organic products like plant and herb extracts. Hence, they are free from any side effects and result in radiant and glowing skin.
There is an increase in consumers who prefer herbal skin cosmetics and skin care products. These herbal products usually contain a long list of mixed ingredients like Shea nut, essential oils, vegetable and fruit extracts and few other herbs. Such organic products are also a great vegan option, as they tend to be free of animal fat.
There are several choices for people who wish to use herbal skin care products. They can choose to buy vegetarian soap bars, herbal moisturizers and natural exfoliating scrubs made of oatmeal, fresh fruit and nuts. These leave your skin feeling smooth and fresh for long. These herbal products are now available for all skin types. Being free of chemicals, organic cosmetics do not dry the skin despite regular use.
Before buying herbal skin products look for few effective ingredients like Cynergy TK trademark, Extrapone Nutgrass Root and Phytessence Wakame in them. These reduce the visibility of wrinkles, prevent the skin from sun's radiations and reduce the melanin content to make you look fairer. Herbal skin care products are safe and gentle on your skin and reasonably cheap and can be found at any regular cosmetic and pharmacy stores. Herbal skin care products are safe on all body parts and keep your skin looking young and radiant for long time.

Stop staring,
I'm not caving,
I mean I like that thing you do,
When I'm that thing you blew
I mean I like you too,
I mean I like you to.
Don't get it twisted,
This isn't fated,
This be us getting high,
Headin for the sky.
I'm that thing you blew,
Don't stick like glue,
Don't hope for more,
This is all for show.
I mean can't you tell?
Don't go catching hope,
Though I'm dope,
You ain't lockin no one down,
In this god forsaken town.
Don't go catchin glimpses,
Of my inches,
You ain't meeting the crew,
Just cause I was something you blew.

So this is pretty exciting - we have a website now! Go and have a look and let me know what you think! www.hopelesslingerie.com - You can see all the previous ranges, and in the future we will move the blog over there and have a proper shop too. I have spent most of the week working on it, hence the slow updates here, and also show the new range on Monday - so also have been preparing all the costings and other bits and pieces for that too. I have also had a few guest blog posts to do, and also organising a small show of the new collection next Saturday! Stay tuned on Facebook for more details on that....! Phew, now to get back to all the orders waiting to be sewn!

How many times have you stopped yourself from going after a dream, or speaking up when you knew the answer, or expressing yourself when you had the urge? It's not that you can't. You know you are capable. But something is stopping you… makes you want to hide and not be noticed…
Something inside you: low self-esteem
Self-Confidence and Self-Esteem
There's a difference between self-confidence and self-esteem. Self-confidence is belief in your ability. Self-esteem is belief in your worthiness. Both can stop you from achieving, expressing, or even enjoying life. Of the two, self-esteem is more difficult to improve. Skills and knowledge can be acquired and you can build up your self-confidence with every small achievement or milestone. But…
If you don't feel worthy of success – or recognition, praise, prosperity or love… your life will be less than it can be.
The only way to raise your self-esteem is to change the way you think about yourself.
1. Get Out of Your Comfort Zone
Going about your life the same way day after day, doing the same activities you've always done, and planning the next weekend to mirror the last one is a good recipe for shrinking your awareness, joy and understanding of the world.
We have a natural (and often useful) tendency to stick with the familiar in life and avoid situations that make us uncomfortable. This is a good way to stay out of sticky situations, but it's also a good way to get in a rut and stay there. Pushing yourself to embrace new activities and experiences that force you to step outside your comfort zone is a good way to change the way you think.
Perhaps it's something physically intimidating, like skydiving or bungee jumping. Maybe getting outside your comfort zone means you seek out public spaces in which you're an ethnic, cultural or religious minority. Instead of vacationing in well-worn tourist traps, try a new destination that's off the beaten path.
2. Meet New People
To bring new thoughts, ideas and perceptions into your life, get to know someone with a different perspective, occupation, background, culture or religion.
Why? Hanging out with like-minded people is a good way to hear constant reinforcement of your own thoughts and beliefs. This also makes it easy to fall into "groupthink" and makes it more difficult to see (or acknowledge) faults, shortcomings and falsehoods of our own.
That's not to say you need to get rid of old friends — just spice up your life with some new ones. New friends and acquaintances increase the odds that you're introduced to new ways of thinking. You may be pleasantly surprised to have your worldview rocked a little bit by a simple conversation with somebody who views life much differently than you do. The great thing about widening your social circle is that new friends can help expand it even further by introducing you to people you might otherwise have little opportunity to meet.
You don't have to travel to exotic lands to meet new people who think differently than you do — in fact, they're all around you. It may just be a matter of being willing to initiate conversations with people from whom you'd normally shy away.
3. Work on Self-awareness
We can't think differently if we don't pay attention to the way we currently think. It isn't hard to walk through life with unchallenged or outdated beliefs, preconceptions, wrong assumptions and a personal narrative that's badly in need of updating.
Many people are afraid of acknowledging and exploring their own thoughts and emotions, choosing instead to focus on life outside their own skin — the needs of others, career goals that have been set, and the constant static of the Information Age. Focusing on self-awareness can help you reconnect with your true needs, desires and dreams. It can make you pay attention to how you treat people and how you feel about how you're treated by others.
4. Do Things Differently
Trying to change the way you think? Why not try changing the things you do? It's not easy to change your perspective on things, especially when you're doing the same old things over and over.
Even making little changes in your life can help. Pick up a new sport or activity that you've always wanted to try. Go to restaurants, parks and other gathering places that you don't normally frequent.
5. "I Will Think Differently, I Will Think Differently"
Some people believe that the best way to help yourself change the way you think is to tell yourself — repeatedly — to think a different way.The idea isn't new. In fact, it's very, very old. Most religious practices involve the repetition of prayers, appeals or affirmations. Militaries across the world demand that recruits change the way they think, and use chants, cheers and oaths to help do so.
You may decide to choose a very specific mantra — "Public speaking is fun!" — or something a little more broad, such as "Live in the moment." As long as your mantra or affirmation isn't grounded in the status quo ("Nothing must change, nothing must change"), it may help you change the way you think.
Learned Optimism Yields Health Benefits
People who learn to maintain an optimistic attitude may not only avoid depression, they may actually improve their physical health

EU Proposes Ban on Neonicotinoids; Syngenta, Bayer Respond
The European Union proposed a two-year ban on imidacloprid, thiamethoxam and clothianidin on crops attractive to honey bees, a move prompted by a European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) report that identified risks to the bees.
The Commission also wants to prohibit the sale and use of seeds treated with plant protection products containing these active substances, according to a Jan. 31 proposal at a meeting of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health.
The Commission asked member states to put in place a two-year suspension on clothianidin, imidacloprid and thiamethoxam as granules, seed treatment or sprays on maize, oil seed rape, sunflowers, cotton and cereals (except for winter cereals). The regulation is expected to be implemented by July 1.
"These are proportionate measures. We are giving the member states two years to see whether it's working. Then we will see if we need to review the legislation in Europe," the Commission's spokesperson for health and consumer policy, Frederic Vincent, said on Jan. 31 in an article on the Europolitics website.
In its report published Jan. 16, EFSA found that contamination of neonicotinoid-treated crops, neonicotinoid dust exposure, and nectar and pollen exposure contributes to declines in honey bees and weakens their hives. It also identified high risks from exposure to guttation fluid from corn for thiamethoxam.
Syngenta, Bayer React
Basel, Switzerland-based Syngenta, which makes thiamethoxam, said it believes the EFSA "found itself under political pressure to produce a hurried and inadequate risk assessment, which even they acknowledge contains a high level of uncertainty." A recent study cited by the company showed that without neonicotinoid seed treatment, crop yields would fall by 40% and cost the EU economy around $23.1 billion over five years.
"Seed treated with thiamethoxam has been used across millions of hectares of European crops for over ten years. When used properly the technology does not damage bee populations and this is why many EU countries have continued to support its use," Syngenta said.
Bayer CropScience — the principal manufacturer of imidacloprid — called the proposal "draconian" and a "missed opportunity to achieve a fair and proportional solution."
Bayer, of Monheim, Germany, requested EU member states "adhere to the principles of proportionality when addressing the Commission's proposal and refer back to solid science before taking any measures."
The company added: "Any disproportionate action would jeopardize the competitiveness of European agriculture and finally lead to higher costs for food, feed, fiber and renewable raw materials and have an enormous economic impact throughout the whole food chain."

By Suzi McKee After graduating from the University of Tennessee with a degree in finance, Lonnie Salyer never dreamed his life would take a musical turn - one that would impact not only his life but the lives of future generations in the Tri-Cities. Lonnie had always liked music and after participating in Leadership Kingsport in 2011, the seed was planted for making a concentrated effort to give back to the community in which Lonnie had grown up. The Dobyns-Bennett grad had collected a variety of things as he grew up: sports cards and Beatles and Rolling Stones music to name a few. But his thirst for the historical aspect of music and recording studios in the area started Lonnie on a journey that has brought him to a new chapter in his life. "About three years ago, I was looking on eBay for a CD of Sticks McGhee who was a blues guy from here in Kingsport," Lonnie began, "and I ran across a 78-rpm record that was listed from Kingsport Records. I knew about Trail Records here in town because a distant cousin owned it but learning about another recording studio really stirred my interest." With this one find, Lonnie set about to begin research to learn as much as possible about the history of early music in this area. One of the first things he learned was that between 1946 and the early 1980s, there were about 18 recording labels and studios between Rogersville and Big Stone Gap, Virginia. "Most of these records, companies and artists have very little documentation on them," Lonnie continued, "so my mission is to discover the musical heritage of our area one dusty old record at a time." Lonnie's musical step back in time is driven by a passion for preserving the history of the music industry in the Tri-Cities. He's become somewhat of an expert and continually searches in flea markets, antique stores and old record shops for labels and artists from this area. He currently owns two 78-rpm records that are the only known copies in the world, but he stresses that he values the historical preservation more than the monetary value of his collection. Because of the growing interest in his work, Lonnie has created a Facebook page called, "Big Lon's Crateful Dig." It's a play on words, he explains, because record collectors go "crate digging" looking for elusive labels and artists. "I just thought it was a catchy title and as more information about my passion spreads, my following continues to grow," he added. Lonnie uses the Facebook page to gather information from people in the Tri-Cities and beyond who have intimate knowledge of a band, a band member, or a record that is found in someone's attic. Lonnie was invited to join the founders of The Ernest Tube, a business in Bristol with a sister facility in Cleveland, Ohio, for their Open House during Rhythm and Roots last year. Lonnie played some of the local records that he's collected and received a lot of attention from the crowd in attendance. Kris Truelsen, Director of Radio Bristol, was impressed with Lonnie's knowledge and collection of local recordings and invited him to do a live radio show that has evolved into "Diggin' with Big Lon." Broadcast from The Birthplace Of Country Music Museum on WBCM 100.1 FM, Lonnie's show features local, original vintage records from the 45 and 78 rpm format. "The show is featured on Thursdays at 5 p.m. and is streamed to 130 countries around the world. You can also listen to it at listenradiobristol.org or with a smart phone app. The coolest part is they let me play what I want - soul, garage rock, country, bluegrass, gospel, all local records," Lonnie continued. In addition to the radio show, "Big Lon" plays a live 45 rpm show at Elderbrew in Bristol from 7 to 9 p.m., the last Thursday of each month. With exposure on the web and contact from an ETSU Appalachian Studies Program professor, Lonnie has begun working with a record company in Germany to assist them with the compilation of a historical collection that will be released soon. "It's really come full circle. I have avid music fans from all around the world contacting me about artists and records from the Tri-Cities and surrounding locales. I'm a brand ambassador, if you will, for Appalachian musical culture." The local community has recognized his passion as well. Lonnie has been a guest blogger for the Birthplace of Country Music Museum and was recently named to the board of directors of the Kingsport-based Appalachian Cultural Music Association and Mountain Music Museum. "I have a passion for what I do," Lonnie explained, "I'm not just a collector; I want to know the story behind the band, the record, and how the recording came into existence." And what will become of the hard work that Lonnie Salyer has devoted to the musical heritage of our area once he's finished with it? "I want to leave my work to a local museum or archive so that future generations can learn more about the important role our area played in the music industry of America," Lonnie said. INDEX Because of the growing interest in his work, Lonnie Salyer created "Big Lon's Crateful Dig" - a Facebook page where he gathers and shares information about the history of the region's early music.

By T. Glen Moody, Ph.D., Curator and Katherine Scoggins After I finished the Ph.D. in Organizational Leadership I spent 5 years in post-doctoral research teaching doctoral students Organizational Behavior, Organizational Culture and Change, Decision Science, and Behavioral Economics. In every class and research project we delved into the many facets and tiers of organizational structures, processes and changes. Not to anyone's surprise, we found time and again that (a) change in organizations is necessary and (b) we all hate change. Irish writer George Bernard Shaw said "progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything." The old expression "the only thing constant is change" is true in life and business, and especially true in the book business where an average of 5,000 new book titles are produced every day. The effect is that when a new book is published an older title goes out of print, so instead of just working with 5 million books in print, we typically work with a database of 5 million books in print plus nearly 100 million titles that are out of print (in English). Welcome to the "new AND used" book business. I Love Books Bookstore has about 400 different categories of books, many which include both new and used books. Because a category may have between 12 and 2,000 titles, new categories and sub-categories are continuously added and categories are relocated to different places in the store, depending on space, demand and utility. We have just expanded our quilting books, classic car books, woodworking books and architectural books. We're reducing our selection of business books (currently 2,000 titles), some fiction, and other slower categories. That means we constantly have numerous price reductions and sales' tables in the store and outside the front of the store. The majority of new book titles are released in the fall of the year, so we're trying to make more room. Embrace the change, the bargains and the wide selection of books at I Love Books Bookstore. You'll be glad you did. Speaking of new book titles... This year has produced two from popular regional author Dr. Lin Stepp - book 11 in her Smoky Mountain Novels series and "Discovering Tennessee State Parks" co-authored with husband J.L. Stepp. The Stepps will sign copies of their books from 2 to 4 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 8, at I Love Books Bookstore. The Stepps "specialize" in writing books about Tennessee State Parks and pack their websites and blogs with folksy information and lots of wonderful photos. In a recent phone interview with columnist Katherine Scoggins, Dr. Stepp explained what drove her to start writing the Nature Guide Books - and then what inspired the works of fiction. "J.L. and I liked to walk - not the long, strenuous hikes, the moderate-paced hikes. But we could never find books on hikes that we could find out much about," Dr. Stepp explained. They hiked 110 hiking trails in the Great Smoky Mountains to write their first guidebook, "The Afternoon Hiker" and then explored 56 Tennessee State Parks over a two-year period, culminating in their latest book "Discovering Tennessee State Parks." They love to get out of doors and are already starting another guidebook. One of those individuals who excels at multitasking, Dr. Stepp made it her goal to complete two novels a year. "I've always been a reader," she explains, "and I grew up in these mountains. The people here are honest people with good stories to tell. That's the type of stories I wanted to read. According to my publisher, a lot of other people wanted to read those stories, too, but there weren't any available, so I started writing them." And, based on her success, they were a huge hit - resulting in her reaching bestseller status in the publishing world. "I write about people I know, that we've met in our travels and people that live the kind of lives we live. I travel in the Smoky Mountains and around the Appalachian area a lot of the time. I stop in small towns, at music festivals, and like to visit old homesteads and farms," she said. Dr. Stepp's enthusiasm for this part of the country is infectious. She has been called "a wonderful ambassador of this area." Her books are popular with teachers, grandmothers, teens and a certain East Tennessee singer and actress (Dolly)." "I thought it would be a good idea to get Dolly Parton interested in some of my fiction and Dolly loves my books. By her request, I send her a copy of every new Smoky Mountain novel released," Dr. Stepp shared. All of the books have wide appeal. "My books are clean and decent - they don't deal with a lot of questionable conduct or graphic issues." Come meet the Stepps and purchase their books at I Love Books Bookstore this Saturday (Sept. 8) from 2 to 4 p.m. I Love Books is located on the upper level of the Fort Henry Mall in Kingsport. INDEX Dr. Lin and J.L. Stepp will sign copies of their books from 2 to 4 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 8, at I Love Books Bookstore. (Contributed) Change is constant at

Surf the Earth with SnoPlanks
"Why not develop product geared towards the greatest days you could possibly have on any mountain" - Holmes on mission
Outdoors sports and manufacturing are at the core of what Central Oregon is all about. SnoPlanks is a powder focused snowboard and ski manufacturer right here in Bend, where the long seasons and friendly business environment is the perfect place for James Nicol and Ryan Holmes to incubate their promising brand in collaboration with the community.
Interview highlights
Surf, sun, ski
San Diego roots
- James Nicol and Ryan Holmes met at the University of San Diego where the inspiration for SnoPlanks traces its roots. "It's such an outdoor, active community," Holmes admits. "We've been really able to tap into the emotions of surfing, and liken our products and what the experience provides on a SnoPlank, to that of what it feels like to being on the ocean on a wave."
Surf everything
- "The mantra for SnoPlanks is surf the powder, surf the mountain, surf the Earth," says Nicol. "Living in San Diego and accessing the ocean on a daily basis really created a backbone for this brand in a lot of ways. And the way we present the brand is almost as much of a surf brand as it is a snowboard brand." You can feel the beach vibes in everything SnoPlanks does, from it's designs, to it's marketing, to it's culture.
On craft manufacturing
Learning the ropes
- It's easy to take for granted the skill, time, and dedication it takes to make great products. Nicol reflects on the early days. "It took two years before we even had something that we would ever want to bring to market. Two years of vetting the product. Two years of riding the product. Two years of trying to break the product." Holmes adds "The only way to really develop a high-end, high-performing product is through years and years of trial and error."
Custom made
- While SnoPlanks works on some all mountain designs, you can really feel the passion they have for making handcrafted and specific products for powder. "You have that split board for the day that you want to go ahead and hike Tumalo or Broken Top or South Sister, you've got that edgeless powder board for that day it dumps 10 inches of snow, you've got those edge twin tip boards for certain days," Holmes points out. "When you are looking for the best powder riding experience you could possibly have, that's where you need a SnoPlank." It's tough to argue with that.
In Bend, community is key
On local support
- "This is a very entrepreneur-rich environment, and people can be successful here if they allow themselves to open up to the community," said Nicol in reference to their involvement at the Bend Venture Conference last year where they won a $15,000 award. "You always want to be a part of your community as a company, and the best way for us to do that is through our product," he added. The duo had a lot to say about what's next for them, but what impressed me most was Holmes challenging the company to think about "How we can continue to give back and how we can continue to provide value to the greater good."
Having fun with it too
- "We've had some awesome collaborations," noted Nicol. SnoPlanks worked with legendary rider Gerry Lopez this summer to develop a line of skateboards, helping the company branch out into a new market. Holmes referenced "The overwhelming support that companies are willing to give to one another," which sometimes is as simple as making a "bamboo carbon-fiber SnoPlank shot ski" for Boneyard Beer to use in their tasting room. If you don't know exactly what that is, then check this out.
The best day you could ever have on Mt. Bachelor
I asked them for some tips and tricks on how to make it all work
- "Step one is make sure you've got your crew...but make sure they can rip" said Holmes. "The days that are most memorable are the ones where James, or a group of buddies, or family are up there all thriving in that experience together." He also suggests paying close attention to condition reports in order to take advantage of the good powder days. "You gotta plan your calendar around these storms coming in, clear your schedule, call in sick, do whatever you have to do," says Holmes. Nicol addressed the more tactical items saying, "Get to the mountain at 7:30, miss traffic, hike the cone, and get some fresh laps in. Go ride Sky until Summit opens if its a sunny pow day, and then session backside summit all day to Northwest. That's gonna be your best day at Bachelor for sure, and it's pretty much unbeatable."
Favorite place after riding the mountain all day
The ultimate tailgate
- While Holmes voted for Crux, Nicol is a fan of a good old fashioned tailgate in the Sunrise parking lot at Mt. Bachelor

Would you consider this an historical find? It's exciting when one manages to get ones hands onto old documents which go way back into time. As for me, I was thrilled to see this document - part of a title deed - which dated back to the Year 1818, that is, 34 years after the founding of the Prince of Wales' Island as an English trading post by Capt Francis Light in 1786.
When Light died in 1794, his position as the Superintendent of this English settlement passed through several hands. The Prince of Wales' Island was later elevated to a Presidency of India with George Town as the administrative centre and governed through a Lieutenant-Governor who was appointed by the East India Company in Madras, India. In 1800, Sir George Leith was the Lieutenant-Governor but by 1817, this position of Governor was filled by Colonel John Alexander Bannerman who died in office in 1819.
Firstly, the semi-circular scroll in the bottom half of the seal. Without any doubt, it read as PRINCE OF WALES' ISLAND, the pompous old name for Penang as adopted by Light.
Secondly, adorning the top half of the seal in a semi-circular design were UNIT●E●IND●COMP which surely must have stood for the United East India Company. But I was bothered by the word UNIT or "United". Why was UNIT included in the seal? As far as I know, the United East India Company would refer to the Dutch East India(n) Company. Perhaps someone, a historian perhaps, can help shed some light on the matter.
Finally, the centre of the seal featured the cross of the East India Company and in the top left quadrant, I could make out a crown on top of a small shield. The shield itself was divided into four parts and there were some semblance of wavy lines in its top right and bottom left quadrants.

Keeping with the Christmas theme I am here to share some samples from Tattered Lace's Pick of the Week launch, which will be on Create and Craft TV at 12pm on Friday
I love to make something a little different and Love a 3D or home decor project at Christmas time.
Look how cute the Mice are helping to trim the tree, the tree is around 12" tall and I love how the mice are holding on to the twine and Baubles with their tails.
This card is my favourite one and I had a real hard time letting it go off to Create and Craft as I wanted to keep it myself.
This card started as a tag and then developed into a fun card which I think would be good for the little ones in your life.
I love a bit of tartan at Christmas so decided to use the lanterns on a shaped topper with a tartan mat below, I really like the colours of this card. I layered the black lanterns onto some white card and coloured them to look as if they are illuminated.
Next up more tartan but this time with gold lanterns, an snowy acetate aperture and a poinsettia.
For this card I cut the lantern die twice and separated the snow flakes. I wanted to make it look like the lanterns were hanging from the sky and the snow was falling around them. I added a gold MDF word to finish the look.
I used the following dies from the new launch to make my cards
You can watch the launch on the following channels

Reviewby Carl Kimlinger,
Sub.Blu-Ray 2 - Mayoi Jiangshi [Limited Edition]
Araragi is thinking about young ghost Mayoi when he travels into the past. He's time-travelling to get a little extra time to do his homework but he's thinking about Mayoi and her long-ago death and so instead of going back a single day he goes back eleven years, to the day before Mayoi was killed on her way to her mother's. He and Shinobu, whose powers he's using to trip through time, decide to take advantage of the situation and save Mayoi from her date with that kid-crushing truck. Much to their surprise—neither thought it'd actually be possible—they succeed. When they get back to the present, though, they discover that their little act of kindness has had some side effects. Like the end of the world.
When Monogatari wants to play around a little, go on a lark and have some fun, you know it can't do it like a normal show. A normal show would pack everyone off to a hot spring or go to the beach for sun and bikinis. Monogatari plays around with time-travel and ends the world. That's just the kind of show it is.
Make no mistake, though, Kabukimonogatari is a lark, albeit a NisiOisin-ish one. This is Monogatari taking a little time off (in a rather literal sense; all of this arc takes place in the artificial space/time created by Shinobu and Araragi's time travel so no time passes in the actual timeline of the show), setting aside the big changes and, really, consequences in general to just have a good old time mucking around with extreme story ideas. Thus we get a time travel saga melded rather novelly with a zombie apocalypse, yielding a dryly funny tale of cause and extreme consequence that delights in the turbulence it raises but ultimately retreats like the tide, leaving not a mark on the show's world.
Monogatari Series Second Season as a whole has a marked taste for bold character evolution and gimlet-eyed deconstruction, but Kabukimonogatari's pleasures are simpler, and yes, if we're being honest, shallower than that. Its pleasures are the pleasures of an imaginative writer allowed to indulge his imagination without rein: allowed to play butterfly-effect with the space-time continuum and ravage the world without worry that it'll screw up his ongoing plot. NisiOisin is quite clever in how he clips the arc off from the show's continuity. He uses an explanation for time-travel that is as good for voiding paradoxes and ensuring resetability as any I've encountered (and is scientifically sound to boot). And once clipped he's freed to be wryly, darkly extreme in his plotting. You know going in that Araragi and Shinobu's meddling will have unforeseen consequences, but the sheer monstrous scale of their cock-up is both horrifying and blackly funny, as is the pettiness, when discovered, of the trigger for the apocalypse.
There are plenty of other little pleasures as well: hearing Meme be his mysterious, manipulative self once more; ; meeting grown-up Mayoi; seeing the cast as children and watching Araragi's super-perv response to loli-Tsubasa, and Shinobu's equally pervy response to shota-Araragi (Monogatari is an equal-opportunity moe offender if nothing else). The dialogue retains its sinuous, oblique charm—wending its seemingly careless way through subjects as far afield as preferences in undeadness, the immutability of fate, and parallel realities, all with that peculiarly self-aware brand of wit. And then there are the more sizeable pleasures. Despite its sub-title ("Mayoi Jiangshi"), Shinobu is the heart of this particular arc, and she supplies a few good kernels of bittersweet feeling, first when she confesses the probable cause of the zombie apocalypse, and again during the finale, which opens a window into what she could become without her newly comfortable rapport with Araragi.
Piled together, all those little and medium pleasures add up to an undeniably enjoyable arc—quick and witty and unpredictable. But the pile is built around no central pleasure, no uniting concern, the way Nekomonogatari was built around Tsubasa's evolution or how Otorimonogatari will be built around the descent into Nadeko's psyche. And without that, Kabukimonogatari can't help but feel a little empty, like a narrative experiment more clever than profound, with more cheek than insight.
There's not a whole lot left to say about Akiyuki Shinbo's approach to the show. It's gorgeous and disorientingly inventive, keeping our eyes busy while the characters erect their towers of babble and matching NisiOisin's experimental writing with its own experimentations. Notable sequences include a breathtaking vertical flight from the zombie menace, some Tex Avery-influenced perversion, and the hypnotic abstraction of Meme's time-travel explication, but really, every scene is equally stunning. Shinbo makes good use of eerie emptiness in the post-apocalyptic episodes and flexes an unusual amount of animation muscle for the characters' expressions (the looks of lust on Araragi and Shinobu's faces while they're being super-pervs are deadly, and the play of emotions across the finale's adult Shinobu is lethal in whole different way), but otherwise this is the same Monogatari you've always known. Only with a lot less fan-service. Dammit.
Satoru Kousaki's score is also pretty much unchanged: simple, expressive, and at its best when turning its simplicity towards atmospheric ends. It remains most remarkable for how much it does with so little.
Equally consistent is Aniplex's treatment of the show. If you've been following their Monogatari releases, you know the song: two Blu-rays, with the four episodes split evenly across them; an extremely nice color booklet, mostly full of character art and synopses/intros, but also with welcome translations of the preview text; a collection of Monogatari postcards drawn by a variety of artists; minimal on-disc extras. On-disc this time are clean versions of the OP and ED (both more visually accomplished than musically), the usual CM and PV collections, and the series' second recap episode. As before, though, what you're really paying for is the video transfer, which is fabulous.
Even if Kabukimonogatari does feel a little hollow, you should enjoy this light(ish) little respite while it lasts. The arcs coming down the pike aren't nearly so playful or kindhearted.

When looking for a new warehouse partner, chances are that your number one priority is to make sure that your products will be stored safely, securely and that they won't be lost or damaged during transit. Not only can poor warehouse management result in the loss or damage of a product (which also means time and money for you) but it could also potentially harm your brand's reputation amongst your customers. So how do you know when you've found the right warehouse partner? One of the key indicators should be transparency.
Evidence of Transparency in the Warehouse
Transparency is about a lot more than just trust. Yes, it's a good thing when a warehouse partner freely provides information about their services and operations and will also tell you if something goes wrong. But this won't do you much good if you're losing products due to organizational errors and damage. The following are a few key indicators of transparency that you should look for when on the hunt for a suitable warehouse partner:
• The functionality of their warehouse management system – A good warehouse management system (WMS) will make it easy to access data in real time, including inventory data, order status, and productivity metrics. It will allow you to see the efficiency of their workforce. Additionally, their management system should enable them to easily track receiving, order picking, shipping, inventory audits, and item movement.
• The ease of use of their warehouse management system – The easier the system is to use, the better. A good warehouse system should allow everyone the ability to log on with ease and get the information they need at their fingertips. This can aid in reducing onboarding time for new users, as well as the risk of seeing potential errors.
• Their ability to scale – Whether the warehouse is growing and taking on new customers or your business is growing along with your supply chain needs; your new warehouse partner needs to demonstrate their ability to scale.
• Their willingness to disclose their track record – Set up a few meetings with some of their current customers to find out how they handle their supply chain. Visit their customer sites to see how the warehouse's system performs in any given setting. At Merchandise Warehouse, we even disclose some of our metrics right on our website. Metrics are essential to proving both past and future performance.
• The effort to keep you in the loop – Communication is an important part of transparency. Your warehouse partner should tell you how they plan on keeping you up-to-date and how often they plan to do so. Regular meetings with your team will help keep you in the loop and will provide you with a sense of control over the process.
• Their plan on how to deal with disruptions – A good warehouse partner won't just have a robust warehouse management system in place that will prevent disruptions in the supply chain, but a plan of action if one occurs. Interruptions will happen, and it is only the best warehouse partners that can quickly resolve issues and return you back to normal operation. Don't be tricked by a warehouse service that believes their system is foolproof because no system is.
As you can see, transparency is not just about communication. It's also about the ability to see how their warehouse works in real time and to be able to see the various organizational components down to the very last detail. This kind of transparency is what allows you to identify a reliable warehouse partner. Choose wisely.
