Fuentek's quarterly e-newsletter provides exclusive information and insights on top tech transfer topics. Subscribe today and get free access to a recent webinar in the next issue of The Fountain.
Fuentek worked tirelessly to help us set goals and raise the bar by benchmarking our university against peer and aspirant schools."
And that's just the direct metrics. There are indirect metrics, too. Tracking things like startup success and other ways your organization contributes to sponsored research and economic development are all important measures of your impact.
Of course, collecting these metrics takes time—a well-constructed database helps—and it should be done strategically and meaningfully. Once you have them identified, make metrics part of your ongoing processes and procedures so that they will work for you. Here's how.
Additionally, balancing the metrics with tactful interviews of key stakeholders—from staff to inventors to management—also adds depth and insights into the analysis and recommendations.
Nurture Talent from Within and from the Start
Out-besting your best does not necessarily mean hiring significant numbers of new staff. We've developed some tactics to proactively build up your team from the inside and invest in the future:
Tremendous entrepreneurship training with Fuentek. It will help me a lot in clarifying my ideas!"
- Tech Transfer Staff: Onsite and virtual training tailored specifically to technology transfer professionals can add significant value and capabilities to the people you have already invested in. And with tight budgets and growing expectations, it's time and resources well spent.
- Innovators: Your success hinges on researchers keeping the tech transfer process in mind from the first lightbulb. Teach your entrepreneurial researchers about tech transfer tools to increase their chances for success. Even those who don't want to launch a startup benefit from tech transfer training, so cultivate relationships with those researchers as well.
- Interns: As you identify areas where you could use more staff, consider implementing an internship program. Having graduate students conduct market research helps free up your professional staff for other tasks. Just remember to pull the pros in for industry interviews.
Communicate Your Value—and What You Need—to Leadership
The tech transfer road is long and often winding. Making sure senior management understand this timeline can help set expectations appropriately. Also, give them insight into the resources needed at each bend in the road.
This report will be very powerful in helping us engage key stakeholders to make necessary changes. It will also serve as an excellent short-term and long-term road map."
It's also important to develop strategies for successful and positive interactions with leadership. Those metrics we talked about earlier? They may require a lot of data gathering, but the good news is that they will help you more thoroughly demonstrate the depth and breadth of your team's value and where you may need support for growth if you communicate them effectively. Professional-looking presentations and publications can help you do just that—they can be just as effective with your own leaders as they are with potential partners and licensees.
Be Willing to Make Big Changes
Thanks to the services provided by the Fuentek team, our tech transfer program has greatly improved and expanded over the past 3 years."
At some stage, broad organizational improvements may be needed. Sometimes a reboot is necessary. Sometimes your processes and procedures need streamlining, and this investment will pay off with time and resource savings down the road. We've posted lots of our insights on how technology transfer offices become more efficient.
Fuentek can put all of these insights to work for you, with our action-oriented, holistic approach. Our experienced team can help you set these strategies in motion. And if you like, we can implement their full execution. Get in touch today to discuss how Fuentek's services and expertise can be an extension of your own team.

It started as a squirrel hunt on a very early fall morning a few years back. I was hunting my friends place in central Indiana, but when I rolled up the drive, my friend came out to meet me. This was unusual, I hunted the property often but almost never saw anybody when I arrived before daylight, this was a hobby farm after all….. no early rising farmers here. Any said, hey Jim do me a favor, if you can take out some raccoons we'd appreciate. They got into the chickens last night and killed a bunch before we got out to see what was going on.
Shifting gears was not a problem, I had a baby squirrel distress call that didn't work all that often, but when it did to could be impressive. Normally I would use my Fox Pro with some raccoon fight sequences, but didn't have that packed in my gear bag for this trip. Shouldering my Benjamin Marauder .25, I hiked back into a woodlot in a somewhat saturated area and got ready to call. This was not a pure guess, I'd found a tree with a lot of coon droppings around it on an earlier trip, and always suspected it to be den tree and had intended to call it. I figured that I'd start for raccoon, but if I saw one of the big bushytail fox squirrels I'd revert to plan A for at least long enough to put one in the bag.
I sat for a few minutes looking around then pulled my distress call out. It was nothing much, the bellows style Knight and Hall call. It can also be flipped over and blown into, emitting a high pitch baby squirrel squeal. I blew it for a few minutes with no luck, then took a break. I watched a young doe pass by, then started up again.
This time I did see something, and all of the sudden the action cranked up fast. A coon was charging right towards me, the only problem I started with the call before I got myself into position and had the rifle laying on my lap. If I moved I was busted. Then he stepped behind a tree, and I raised the rifle, but nothing. I figured maybe he busted me, but gave the call another try letting loose a sorrowful squeal. Next thing I knew he stepped out from behind a tree a few yards from where I thought he was and looked right at me.
The gun was up and ready this time, and I was watching through the scope with the crosshairs right between the eyes. I squeezed the trigger and the pellet impacted with a "thwack" right where it had been intended to go, producing a clean headshot. The coon rolled over and was DOA. I tried a few more sets but didn't have any further luck, still my buddy and (more importantly) his wife felt that I had avenged their chicken and gotten rid of one pest that was living close to their poultry.
The .25 is a solid raccoon caliber, out of a medium to high power PCP it will do the job with either a headshot or a body shot, though head is better on these tenacious animals. I've taken scores of the masked bandit with the .25, and find a heavy round nose pellet is a consistent performer. That's one of the things I really like about the caliber, great for small stuff but is ready for bigger quarry when needed.
I want to wish you all a very happy Easter, a time for family and reflection, and hope you and yours have a great day. I am off on Monday morning for South Dakota for a couple days, and hoping for an early start to my P-dog hunts. It is kind of iffy though, I've been struggling with weather my last few outings. I am dying to get the Daystate Pulsar out for some long range field work, and hopefully will have a video coming your way soon.

Hello crafters, Kirsten here again. I can't believe it's May 20 already, the months are flying by. I've got three quick cards to show you today. The first one uses the Cardamom 12x12 paper from Kaisercraft's Honey Chai collection, layered onto black card. I stamped the Kaisercraft Birdcage stamp with Black Versacolor & heat set with clear embossing powder.
I wound some string around a length of seam binding, stamped the sentiment from the HobbyArt Butterfly Kisses Musical Print stamp set with White Versacolor ink, then heat set it with
white embossing powder & finished with Hobby House adhesive pearls.
On the second card I used the other side of the Cardamom paper on black card as the focal image, with a piece of the Always paper from the Art of Life collection behind. I stamped the Bubble Wrap stamp onto that with embossing ink, then applied Stamp 'n' Bond & gold transfer foil. If you've haven't tried this technique before, see my tutorial in this post.
The sentiment is from the Hobby Art Butterfly Kisses Nautical stamp set & I embellished with seam binding & punched out black circles covered with Glossy Accents.
For the final card I used kraft card as my base. I stamped the Bubble Wrap stamp randomly with Coffee Archival, stamping onto scrap card first so that I only got faded images. Then I stamped the Birdcage stamp with White Versacolor.
Next I stamped the Birdcage stamp again, this time with Black Versacolor & slightly to the right of the white image. I heat set the black image with clear embossing powder.
I embellished the card with Crafts Too tissue tape, a punched out piece of kraft card, a button, string, a tiny clothes peg & sentiments from the HobbyArt Butterfly Kisses Musical Print stamp set.
If any of these have inspired you, why not take part in the current blog challenge? See you next time, happy crafting.

For seven long and at times bitter years, Labour has struggled against the might of a National-led Government with one of the most popular Prime Ministers to ever hold office in New Zealand. For all his failings – and there have been many – Prime Minister John Key remains in office approaching the midway mark of his third term in large part because the Labour-led Opposition has failed to take advantage of the numerous bungles by various Ministers. It has failed to work as a cohesive unit and it has committed silly mistakes that turned off voters in one part of the political spectrum or another at various times.
Phil Goff took over a Labour Party still in shock at its 2008 defeat, and unable to comprehend that Helen Clark was no longer leader. He inherited a mixture of experienced Members of Parliament such as Annette King and Trevor Mallard, as well as rookies with potential such as Jacinda Ardern. A combination of the public generally tending to give Governments the first term to show their agenda and prove themselves and some spectacular opportunities to show leadership in the face of a crisis (or two), helped to ensure National would get a second term with a strong finish in 2011.
One would have expected a significant improvement from Labour over 2011-2014, but it never came. David Shearer came and went with no real progress. David Cunliffe might have done better, except for his gaffe where he said he was ashamed to be a man when addressing womens rights issues. Although as the political term progressed numerous opportunities to score potentially damaging hits were offered up, Labour M.P.'s seemed to be more interested in quarrelling amongst themselves.
But to me it was Cunliffe's gaffe that shot his credibility. This was something that turned off a lot of voters and it was only because New Zealand First picked up three seats and the Greens held their ground that National was denied a majority. Even before the voters went to bed on election night, the knives were already been sharpened for Cunliffe's head. The centre-left held their heads in their hands. The prospect of a four term National Government was seized on with glee by National and A.C.T. as well as media outlets with a conservative outlook. Things were not looking any better when Labour announced it had a new leader in November 2014.
But in the last year since Andrew Little took over, perhaps finally realizing Labour faced becoming irrelevant to the New Zealand political scene, its discipline has improved across the board. Although like any party it still has its in house arguments, that is largely what they have been: in house. With a media establishment that has been largely sympathetic to National, instead of showing impartiality or trying to present things objectively, perhaps it is not surprising that Mr Little's poll ratings have been relatively low.
Today, Mr Little will unveil a significantly revised shadow cabinet. This is something I have been waiting to see happen for sometime. Past revisions were a slightly more serious take on the rearranging of the deck chairs on the Titanic. There have been some seriously good performances by a few Labour Members of Parliament that need to be rewarded, such as Kelvin Davis' work chasing the Government over Serco. Another is Jacinda Ardern, whose profile continues to grow and her constant nipping at the Minister of Social Development Anne Tolley's heels is finally being noticed. A third is Andrew Little himself, as he plays a game of cat and mouse with the Prime Minister over his comments about rape.
Labour still have some significant work to do. It has not had a Don Brash type moment where an extraordinarily effective speech on race relations saw National's polling in early 2004 surge to the point that some suggested it might have won an election at the time. Whether it needs such an event to happen is a matter of academic debate that perhaps could be answered by a significant policy announcement. So far Labour has been very timid about policy announcements. It is also true that if Labour can take full advantage of the next big National failing, something that is likely to become more frequent and problematic for National if it follows the trajectory of a typical three term Government, the next splattering of mud might not be wiped from the face of the Government.
Hopefully Labour is about to step up a gear as a result of this shadow cabinet revision because by the time the summer holidays end, there will only be a year and a half until the 2017 election.

If you weren't in the Halloween spirit already, this recent archaeological find just mind get you there.
Professor Nikolai Ovcharov, affectionately known as "Bulgaria's Indiana Jones," announced last week that he made a spooky new discovery during a dig at the ruins of Perperikon, an ancient city near Bulgaria's southern border that was first established by the Thracians in 5,000 B.C. Ovcharov uncovered a "vampire grave," featuring a well-preserved skeleton with a two-pound iron stake driven into its chest. The skeleton's left leg had also been removed and placed next to the rest of the body.
The skeleton is believed to be that of a 40-to-50-year-old man who lived in the first half of the 13th century. Ovcharov believes the find is definitely evidence of vampire beliefs, though the stake wasn't there to "kill" the undead, but rather to pin it into the grave and keep it from rising up (the removal of one leg helps with that, too).
"We have no doubts that once again we're seeing an anti-vampire ritual being carried out," Ovcharov said. "Often they were applied to people who had died in unusual circumstances – such as suicide."
The find is the latest in a long string of "vampire grave" discoveries in Bulgaria, including two that were uncovered in 2012 and 2013 200 miles east of Perperikon. Bozhidar Dimitrov, who heads Bulgaria's National History Museum, said about 100 "vampire" skeletons in all have been discovered in the country. Every time one of those discoveries comes up, we get a fascinating insight into some of the creepier medieval beliefs about the dead, but this time around the "vampire grave" is perhaps not the spookiest thing Ovcharov unearthed. He also discovered the skeletons of a woman and a child who were arranged in their grave to look like the Virgin Mary with her child, likely as a measure to ward off the plague.

PUBLIC NOTICES. MERIONETH COUNTY GOVERNING BODY UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF WALES, ABERYSTWYTH. THE County Governing Body are about to award FIVE SCHOLARSHIPS of £ 10 each to Farmers' Sons and others, being residents of Merionethshire, to enable the holders to attend a seven weeks' course in Agriculture at the above College, commencing in January, 1898. Candidates are invited to apply to the under- signed before the 30th Nevember, 1897. The Governing Body may arrange a competitive examination in Elementary School subjects. R. JONES GRIFFITH, Clerk to Merioneth County Governing Body. Dolgelley, 6th November, 1897.
The meeting of ratepayers held at Barmouth on Friday night cleared matters to some extent. It was surprising, however, to see the attendance in the hall so thin at the opening of the meeting, and that at its best it could not be called a crowded meeting. The affairs, the difficulties, and the 11 misfortunes" of the town have had so much attention lately that the small attendance may have been thought to betoken a lack of interest on the part of the ratepayers. But cannot the leaders on both sides read the letters on the wall and arouse themselves to the fact that the ratepayers are sick and tired of mismanagement and wrangling ? A question asked by one of those present was very much to the point. He asked for a true state- ment of things as the old Local Board left them. The speech by Mr Adams avoided this point and so was most unfortunate throughout, he dealt with What the old Local Board should have done in years gone by and attributed to them the blame for everything that has since happened. This has been done so often that it is stale now; it was stale years ago when things were not quite so bad as they have now become. If one statement, made by thel supporters of the Council, is correct, there is reason to think that some person (Lot the Rector) contributed to the loss of the law-suit by the Council. But this is of sm,Il moment. What may fairly be complained of by the public is, that the public meeting endeavoured merely to find out who is to be blamed, instead of trying to find some solution of the difficulty. # The very same complaint must be made against the Rector's meeting last week. That rev. gentle- man and his friends met in the same room, and, instead of giving the Council suggestions how to settle matters, were content to abuse the members of the Council. We venture to say that the Council now in office have done much and saved much, and we also feel justified in saying they have made grievous mistakes. When misfortune came on them we think the Rector made a mistake in attempting to make capital out of it. It was then his opportunity to come forward to assist them he did not do so, and in future he must surely be sorry for this mistake. He forgot the old adage A friend in need is a friend indeed," and lost his opportunity. The council is by no means out of its difficulties. We take it that a Local Government Board en- quiry will be held, when an objection wl1 be made to the payment of money for the outfall sewer on the ground that it has not been completed. It is too soon to say how much validity lies in this objection, but there is the possibility that the council will triumph in the end. Barmouth is in need of charitable feeling, and until the leaders rise above the petty jealousy now existing in the town little good will be done. Ambulance classes in this district have been commenced with conspicuous success. The class at Towyn under Dr. H. G. Jones has exceeded the most sanguine expectations of the committee which met at the residence of Mr W. Rowlands four weeks ago. The class at Abergynolwyn numbers over 60, and it will give a feeling of satisfaction and security to the district if everyone of the members of this class pass the examination. The value of first aid to the injured at a quarry of the description of the Bryneglwys Quarry is inestimable. The classes are held in conjunction with the Evening Continuation School, and much credit must be given to Mr Thomas, the headmaster, who, we are given to understand, has taken the trouble of trans- lating the lectures of Dr Jones and of delivering them for the benefit of those Welshmen who could not follow the doctor in English. At Aberdovey another class bad been formed, with Dr. Bonner as the lecturer. This class is also making headway in point of numbers and popularity. The note on the constitution and aims of the new society called the Towyn Mutual Improvement Society in these coluuius last week has had the desired effect. The remarks made-and the mem- bers of the society are ready to acknowledge it- were written with the best intentions, and the society has shown an excellent spirit in acting on them promptly. It has been decided to hold the meetings at Cadvan House instead of at the English Chapel, and the Chairman and Mr Whittaker are willing to resign their positions in favour of others if the success of the society can be increased by their so doing. Members of every denomination are warmly invited to enrol themselves. As stated by the Chairman on Tuesday evening the Society will know no sect or creed, but will meet for the cammon good of all. The committee of the society will probably meet together and prominent gentle- men in the town will no doubt be asked to extend to it their patronage. That the society was started at the English Chapel is no reason now for anyone to think that its benefits are confined to the mem- bers of that chapel.
TOWYN. Notice of all events required to be reported in this journal should be given to our representa- tive, Mr R. R. ROBERTS, 3, Church-street, Towyn, or to the Head Office, Welshpool. PREACHING MEETINGS. — Special sermons are being delivered at the Wesleyan Chapel in aid of the Foreign Mission. The preacher is Mr Wm. Roberts, Maentwrog, a popular lay preacher with the connexion.

On Monday evening the members attended in good number when a debate took place on Whether public libraries should be supported by voluntary con- tributions or from the rates." It was stated by the Chairman and Mr Whittaker that the society was open to members of all denominations, and it was decided to hold the meetings at Cadvan House on Tuesday evenings. BETHESDA CHAPEL IMPROVEMENT SOCIETY.—The weekly meeting was held on Monday evening, the Rev J. M. Williams in the chair.

Roberts competition, im- promptu address on Towyn," the first was Mr George Williams; glee, "Deigryn," by a party led by Mr Rowland Owen. The meeting was shortened owing to the lateness of the hour, a preaching meeting being held in the chapel the same evening. TOWYN AND ABERDOVEY URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL.—FRIDAY. A meeting of the above Council was held at the Police Station, Towyn. At the commencement of the proceedings the chairman (Mr J. Maethlon James) was not present, and in his absence the chair was occupied by Mr J. M. Howell. There were also present:—Messrs Morris James, Meredith Richards, J. Geufronydd Jones, Edward Jones, D. Edwards, D. Evans, J. D. Evans, John Roberts, and Mrs RowlandE. with Mr W. R. Davies (clerk), Mr R. Barnett (assistant clerk), Mr Ernest Richards (act- ing surveyor), Mr Edward Williams and Mr John Jones (sanitary inspectors). ROADS TAKEN OVER. With reference to the Vicarage Lane havino- been taken over by the Council, the Assistant Clerk said notices had been posted up but objections could be made until some time in December.—Mr Morris James asked if the surveyor had beer acquainted with the fact that Llain Road had been taken over, and the Assistant Clerk replied that that was a long- time since, and he did not know.—On the proposi- tion of Mr Morris James, it was decided to inform the surveyor. THE CLOSING OF A DWELLING HOUSE. Mr Edward Williams (sanitary inspector) repor- ted that Mr Edmund Lewis, Bryncrug, had vacated his dwelling house in accordance with notice given him. ABERDOVEY COMMITTEE'S REPORT. The report of the Aberdovey Committee, with the surveyor's report to the committee, was sub. niitted.-The committee decided to repair Church Street as far as Mr Rawson's house, and that 100 tons of macadam be ordered for the work from Miuffordd.—The surveyor was directed to make the best arrangements he could with Messrs Harrison and Co., and others building on Hopeland View, as to the stoppage of traffic during the time the work in connection with the sewer and surface water drain was in progress.—The matter of the ventila- tion of Hopeland View was deferred.—Tenders for supplying pipes for inlet works of the reservoir were received from Messrs J. and T. Roberts (Coch- rane) and Stanton Iron Company, and the former was accepted.—The surveyor was directed to sell the surplus pipes to Mr J. C. Edwards, Ruabon.— The shelter had been erected on Penbryn, and the inscription for it was expected every day. The wall had been rebuilt, but much remained to be done be- fore the place could be considered satisfactory.— The Surveyor recommended that the engineer and clerk of the works should be consulted as to the purchase of a water meter.—The surplus pipes had since the meeting of the committee been sold to the Dyssyni Valley Drainage Commissioners, which saved the cost of carriage to Ruibou.Air Hugh Morris was anxious to have pavement laid in front of his shop on the Terrace. He suggested that the committee should visit the place.—At a meeting of the committee subsequently held the report of the surveyor was read and adopted.—The committee decided to visit the site of Hopeland View sewer and also Penybryn and the shelter, and recom- mended the Council to pay the cost of the shelter out of the loan account.—It was resolved to extend the sewer up to the path as far as the new houses of Mr W. V. Thomas, erected in Henlog Terrace.— The report was adopted.—It was stated that the cost of the shelter at Penybryn would be about X45. MATTERS RELATING To TOWYN. The report of the surveyor as to Towyn was submitted, and stated that the committee appointed to consider the question of deviating the read at Br-yncrug had met on the road on October 18th, when there were present-Messrs John Roberts, Ed. Jones, G. Jones, of the Council, and Mr Wynne and Mr Henry Evans, the latter as the representative of the School Board. The course of the road was marked out and Mr Wynne promised to consider at what price he would sell the land lying between the road and the school. Mr Wynne stated that he could not contribute more towards the cost of the road than giving the land, but possibly Mrs Scott would subscribe towards improving the road pro- vided the work was done as far as Bird's Rock. Mr Wynne could not allow the road to be deviated at Bank-y-Tyno, but was prepared to allow the neses- sary cutting and filling. He (the surveyor) sug- gested that the clerk should communicate with Mrs Scott. He had been in correspondence with the county surveyor and the matter was to come on at the next meeting of the County Council. The kerbing in connection with Idris Villas had been laid, and the place had been much improved. The work in connection WiLlI the rent shafts would be commenced next week, the piping for the construc- tion having arrived. He submitted a plan and elevation of the house to be built by Mr Lewis Morris.—The surveyor was requested to visit the County Council to lay before the members the facts about the bridge at Bryncrug. THE ROAD AT BRYNCRUG. Mrs Scott, Peniarth Uchaf, wrote that as the proposed new road leading to Llanegryn did not affect her she could not see her way to contribute. If she was allowed to use the road past Craig-y- Deryn she would contribute. RURAL WARD. The report of the surveyor as to the rural ward was next taken. The surveyor stated that Mr Richards, Tyddynyberllaw, and other farmers com- plained that the road leading from Tyno Morgan in a northerly direction to Gesail Road was not pass- able for threshing machines. Mr Vaughan com- plained that a part of the road to the south of Abertrinant Chapel was not safe for heavy traffic. The surveyor suggested certain alterations which could be done at a small cost. The Rhydyronen mountain road -,Iso needed repairing. The main road between Bryndinas and Troedybwlch had been much improved. Complaint had been made, espe. cially by cyclists, of the practice of trimming hedges and leaving thorns, briars, &c., on the sides of the roads. He suggested that notices should be posted requesting farmers and others to discontinue the practice.—A member said he did not think the roads were in a bad condition, and farmers as a rule were careful.—Mr Geufronydd Jones said it was not the branches left that were the most dangerous. Cyclists could avoid them, but it was the little thorns that could not well be cleared (laughter).—Mr Meredith Jones said he thought farmers were not to be blamed; they as a rule did clear the road after them.—The Clerk said some did and others did not.-It was decided to print notices. THE CLAIM FOR ALLOTMENT. A reply was received from Mr R. Gillart, the agent for Mr Corbett, to the letter sent to him by the Council enclosing the application of Mr Richard Thomas for an allotment. Mr Gillart said he would bear Mr Thomas's application in mind, but at pre- sent he regretted that Mr Corbett had no land available for the purpose.-Ttie Chairman said they had done their best, and he did not know what more they could do.—Mr Morris James suggested that they should send again to Mr Shuker, Tymawr. —This was agreed to. INSPECTOR'S REPORT. Mr Edward Williams, sanitary inspector, reported that two cases of measles had been reported to him and in each case disinfectants were used. INSPECTOR'S REPORT: TOWYN. Mr John Jones (sub-inspector) reported that he had asked that the playground of the National Schools should be kept in better condition. No steps had been taken to prevent the cellar at Pen- llyn, which was used as a dairy, from getting flooded in rainy weather. It was dry when he called there last Tuesday but the previous time it was ankle deep in water.—It was decided to inquire further into the matter at Penllyn. A HOUSE TO BE CLOSED AT ABERDOVEY. Mr Hughes Jones, Aberdovey, wrote that he had given notice to Mr Lewis Jones, Aberdovey, to vacate his house.—The Inspector said he under- stood Mr Jones intended to pull the house down and to build a new residence. UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF NORTH WALES. Mr D. H. Davies, B.A., headmaster of the Towyn County School, was appointed the representative of the Council on the Court of Governors of the University College of North Wales, Bangor. ABERDOVEY BOUNDARY. At the request of Mr Arthur Tomlins who was unable to be present., his motion for the extension of the boundary of Aberdovey was adjourned until the meeting in December. WATER SUPPLY AT ABERDOVEY.-AN AMUSING LETTER. The following letter was read to the meeting and created roars of laughterTo the Chairman of the Local Authority, Towyn. Tanyrallt, Aberdovey, 14th October, 1897.—Dear Sir,—I beg to advise you that we have had a continuous supply of water since Friday last for the first time this year.— Yours respectfully, ISAAC SHERWOOD.The Clerk: Is it this year or last year ? Oh, yes, 14th October, 1897 (more laughter). AGREEMENT. The agreement between Mr Corbett and the Council as to keeping the esplanade in order was signed. ABERDOVEY WATERWORKS. Messrs H. Harrison and Co. and Joseph Dewer, contractors of the Aberdovey Waterworks, wrote drawing attention to the heavy amount of the retention under their contract. The retentions were nominally 25 per cent, but last month they amounted to 40 per cent owing to the difference in the method of measuring up the work done. They would be greatly obliged if the Council could see their way to letting their retention stand at a lump sum of £ 500 which was about 15 per cent and as they had now reached the total of E538 7s 2d they would be glad to receive the balance with their next cheque.—It was decided to leave the matter to the engineer.

How Do You Lose Home Equity?
When you get a loan, you have to take into account a range of things: interest rates, exit fees, being in debt, having bad credit, etc. But one thing that people forget about is the home equity.
Life can be tough, especially when we're talking about money. Even so, you can't mess around with home equity. If you know how it works, it can benefit you. This article is a brief guide on this subject. We'll try to answer the most commonly met questions. Let's start – shall we?
What Is Home Equity?
When you get a new home, it has a particular value, a market value. You will have to pay an amount in the form of a home loan for that property. Home equity is the difference between the market value of your property and the amount that remains to be paid for your home loan.
How Can Home Equity Benefit Me?
Home equity can help you whenever your property's market value rises. For example, if the market dictates that your property is worth more, you can use the difference (the home equity) and invest in your home or purchase other things.
For example, your property's market value is one million dollars. Your mortgage is five hundred thousand dollars; therefore, the value of your home equity is at five hundred thousand dollars. But if you want to access that equity, expect to get less.
For home equity, it would be something like an eighty percent of the total market value of your property. That means you will get three hundred thousand dollars in home equity, give or take. It depends on your lender and other factors related to the market value of your property.
Why Do I Lose Home Equity?
Not being properly informed about the ways in which you can lose your equity could be risky for you. What may appear like a harmless thing could often turn into a severe issue.
On that note, home equity can drop in value because of certain factors. For example, the market can fluctuate in a manner that can quickly make your house and other houses from that area drop in value. What once was estimated at one million dollars, now may value nine hundred thousand dollars instead.
Other factors like high-interest rates or maybe not renovating your property can also have an adverse impact on your home equity. This is why you may end up paying more than you signed for.
Another way in which you can lose your home equity is by changing the structure or layout of the home. One thing is for sure: not all home enhancement projects are done adequately. Making a rushed decision such as turning a garage into a room or painting all the rooms in the house red could make you lose your equity.
The list of scenarios goes on: you could also lose your home equity if you refinance a home loan by taking out cash. In other words, considering that you would get cash on a refinance, the overall value of the loan will increase. So, if the value drops or depreciation doesn't keep up, you could end up owing more than the actual value of the home, which would result in losing your home equity.
Choosing to borrow on a home equity loan might also be linked to unwanted consequences. To put it roughly, when you decide on taking out a home equity loan, you renounce your equity to financing. Your equity diminishes as the financed loan increases. Evidently, considering that you intend to use the equity loan in order to remodel your master bedroom or bathroom, you could replace the equity you lost.
If the demographics in your neighbourhood changes, this could also impact your equity. For example, if your neighbourhood is often visited by criminals and thieves, this could imminently drop prices and negatively affect ownership. So, if house prices fall, your equity will decrease, too.
How Can I Avoid Negative Home Equity? How Can I Improve It?
If you already signed a contract that has no option regarding a negative home equity guarantee, you cannot avoid it. You can switch loans, but that will require an exit fee plus five percent of the value of your new home. However, you can avoid this situation if you do some research before signing any contract.
By that, we mean you can get a no negative home equity guarantee option in your contract. This way, if your property's market value decreases, it won't affect your payments. However, you should renovate your home and pay your taxes on time. By doing this, your home equity will remain positive.
So, if you don't want to lose home equity, it's time to pay your taxes on time and invest some money into your property. This way, you'll maintain your house's market value. You can opt for the services of NSW Mortgage Corp if you are in danger of losing your equity. We will tell you everything you need to know and will offer you solutions to prevent any issues from arising.

NEWCASTLE, AUSTRALIA – MARCH 31: Adam Cuthbertson of the Knights scores a try during the round four NRL match between the Newcastle Knights and the Canberra Raiders at Hunter Stadium on March 31, 2013 in Newcastle, Australia. (Photo by Tony Feder/Getty Images) Photo: Tony Feder iuytre
How the match unfoldedWhat we learnedObstruction rule baffles BennettNRL ladder
A bruised and battered Canberra is furious Newcastle's Akuila Uate escaped punishment for tackling Jack Wighton in the air after the Raiders winger hurt his wrist in Sunday night's 28-12 loss at Hunter Stadium.
Early in the second half, with Canberra leading 16-12, Wighton leapt for a bomb but appeared to be tackled by opposite number Uate before his feet hit the ground.
Wighton has carried his wrist injury all season but the Raiders fear he may have broken it in his exchange with Uate.
Referees Gerard Sutton and Brett Suttor ruled a knock-on against Wighton, and the Knights scored off the next set when halfback Tyrone Roberts embarrassed Josh Papalii with a dummy.
The Raiders were also unhappy Knights hooker Danny Buderus was not penalised for a clear shoulder charge on Canberra centre Blake Ferguson in the second half.
Canberra coach David Furner is likely to seek clarification from referees boss Daniel Anderson.
Asked if there would be any team changes for next week, Furner replied: ''I'm not thinking about that at the moment.
''I'm thinking a couple of mandatory penalties would have helped us in the second half. There's a couple I thought were mandatory.''
Officials have heavily policed the shoulder charge since it was banned before the start of this season.
Ferguson lay on the ground for some time before playing the rest of the match after the Buderus hit, but Furner was bemused it did not result in a penalty.
''I'm very surprised – very, very surprised,'' Furner said. ''There's been a lot of 'hoo-ha' about it. I had a quick look at it on the replay [after the game] and it summed it up.''
Raiders hooker Glen Buttriss (shoulder) and winger Sandor Earl (hamstring) will be assessed this week, while Knights skipper Kurt Gidley (concussion) played no part in the second half.
Having led 12-10 at half-time, a litany of errors and poor discipline cost the Raiders badly, the Knights scoring 18 unanswered second–half points.
In an early season hole at 1-3, Canberra need to regroup for crucial home assignments against the Sydney Roosters and New Zealand Warriors the next fortnight.
The Raiders trailed 10-0 early after Knights tries to Uate and fellow winger Anthony Quinn, but took a 12-10 lead through tries to Joel Thompson and Papalii.
However, momentum swung back in the Knights' favour when Roberts' ''show and go'' completely fooled Papalii.
Furner did not blame referees for the loss, saying Canberra was again its own worst enemy at times, especially in the second half.
They handed the Knights chance after chance, and two soft second-half tries to Newcastle prop Adam Cuthbertson sealed their fate.
Furner criticised the last-play options of halves Sam Williams and Josh McCrone, who are coming under increased pressure.
''Our last play options, our kicking game was pretty poor tonight,'' Furner said.
''We didn't give ourselves a chance in that first half, we visited their line four times and we didn't even get a repeat set.
''There were times there where our defensive principles and our discipline let us down.''
Roberts backed up his starring effort in last week's thrashing of the Cowboys with another brilliant effort, while Newcastle prop Kade Snowden made 192 metres from 16 runs.
As usual, Raiders lock Shaun Fensom was tireless with 103 metres and 59 tackles, while centre Ferguson (eight tackle breaks) looked threatening whenever he touched the ball.
NEWCASTLE KNIGHTS 28 (Adam Cuthbertson 2, Akuila Uate, Anthony Quinn, Tyrone Roberts, tries; Roberts 3, Kurt Gidley goals) bt CANBERRA RAIDERS 12 (Joel Thompson, Josh Papalii tries; Jarrod Croker 2 goals) at Hunter Stadium. Referee: Gerard Sutton, Brett Suttor. Crowd: 18,689.

Good morning to all the faithful. Have you ever met someone who was having a bad day? They were under a cloud and it had been raining. I think Noah and his family knew what it was to have a rainy day but when it ended God sent a rainbow as a sign that the rain was over and a great change had taken place. Ezekiel the Prophet heard from God after he was reminded about the rainbow. Ezekiel 1:28 "Like the appearance of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the brightness all around it. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. So when I saw it, I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of One speaking." When you meet people who are under a cloud could it be that God has brought you to them for you to be their rainbow? Could it be that you are their breath of fresh air and God uses you to make them feel that the sun, His Son, is breaking through? I believe that God does this all the time so may you brighten and give hope to everyone you meet today.
This Sunday I'll be sharing on, 'I Can See Clearly Now.' When I look back at where I've been I can see clearly that God has always been with me. I can see that all that I know has been deposited in me along the way. Invite a friend to hear a revelation from Heaven.
Continue to pray for all those in need. Looking forward to seeing you soon, lots of love Pastor Kevin and Alice

Using google as a search engineMost people on the internet have used Google at one time or another. There are 3.5 billion searches made daily and according to Google 15% are unique. When you go on the internet, it normally is for a specific reason:
- To search for information
- To find a product to buy
- To go onto social media
- Because you are bored
Using Google for your businessYou type into google 'How do I find an affiliate program'. When I did this I got back – according to google – 3,300,000 results. I find this incredible that there are that many pages associated with finding affiliate programs. But google will add any pages it can to all of your searches to make it look good. Google returns the results which it thinks you want to see from the query you type into the search box. From your point of view, you may have been having a conversation with someone prior to this, or you have planned out an article and need more information on a specific topic. But Google doesn't know this and only has the words you typed into the search box to go on. Some even shorten the question into just key phrases and get really frustrated when the results, to them, are garbage. But the old phrase comes to mind' garbage in garbage out'. you do need to help Google a little bit, and with that little bit of help you can get extremely relevant results every time you search for something. To improve your search results you need to learn a few key words to add to your searches. These words are the advanced operators.
Google advanced searchGoogle has an advanced search page, which most of us will not use. It looks intimidating when you jump on there, as a user interface it takes awhile to get used to. so going back to our search 'how to find an affiliate program' how do we get the actual number of results which are directly about that? Well my guess is that we use the second box – exact phrase. Scrolling down and clicking on search returns us 33 results. Wow – what a difference. from over 3 million results down to 33. How… Google will take each of your words and use that as a search term. As you can see if you carried out that search- google now has put the term in quotes or " ". This will search for all of the words, so reducing the number of results. In a way i wish Google would do this for every search or at least have a tick box next to the search box to allow us to use this search easily. You can go on to explore the other advanced search terms, but i would like to show you how to use a lot of them without having to resort to the advanced search page.
Google advanced search operatorsAs we have seen, google added the " " around the search term to search for that exact phrase. We can type this diirectly into the search box instead of having to go onto the advanced page. There are still a lot of results not exactly about what we want, from the displayed results. Well google has advanced operators to select words in the title and the text of the articles. These are 'intitle:' and 'intext:' or 'allintitle:' and 'allintext:' So if we put 'allintitle:' in front of the exact match, and search -we reduce the number of results down to 21. This is a lot less intimidating and you can easily scan these results to see which you like and read the articles. One thing i have done is to setup my google search. If you go to the settings and then search settings, you can set various parameters to improve your results. It is well known that google keeps an eye on what you are searching for and will tailor your results to previous searches. Under this menu you can effectively turn off the personalising of your search results. I also set it to return 100 results per page. To make sure the results are relevant you can get google to check if your search term is in the title as well as in the text. So we would type in 'intitle:"how to find an affiliate program" intext::"how to find an affiliate program" Notice we now use the intitle instead of allintitle, this is due to the fact that you cannot use any other operator with the allin.. operator. This result is down to 19 results and all of them have the term 'how to find an affiliate program' in their title and will have it in the text. To ensure that the results are up todate then you can use the tools settings. Clicking on the tools menu button will allow you to restrict the searhes to a time period- up to a year. Using these quick and easy hacks you can save a load of time not seeing irrelevant results. other operators include:
- site: – this will search only the site designated, e.g. site:moneysavingexpert.com (1,600,000 results). This will return all of the results for this site and can be combined with other search elements e.g. site:moneysavingexpert.com "save pounds"(60 results)
- AND -this is part of the boolean search and is used to combine two or more search temr together. e.g. "leather" AND "tools"(97,000,000 results) AND" uk"(47,000,000 results) AND "midlands" (898,000 results)
- OR another boolean search operator where you search for this OR that. e.g. "latest news" site:cnn.com OR site:bbc.co.uk -will return the latest news from only these two sites.
- filetype: or ext: – this will return files with certain extensions. e.g. " usb" ext:pdf returns results of pdf files about usb.
- inurl: – the title of the article may not be the same as the URL, so you can search the URL as well as the title of the article.
- ~ – include synonyms, associated words. e.g. ~tourism will return results for tourism, leisure, visits.
- related: -will return results related to sites. e.g. related:bbc.co.uk will return the independant, the times, the daily mail.
- near me: – you will find out what is happening near you – if you have your location set. e.g. near me:events – returns results of events which are close to your reported location.
- $ – added in front of a number to indicate price, e.g. camera <$100 will return results for cameras with prices under $100 – or £100
- .. – wil lsearch for results between two numbers. e.g. camera 200..400, searches for cameras with a price between 200 and 400 dollars.
- # – will return all articles with # ( mainly tweets). e.g. site:twitter.com #yankees
- time – this will return your time or if used with a town, city or country will return their time.

Retirement Life
War widow kicked out of home after 20 years
A war widow has been left to fend for herself after being told that she was getting kicked out of the apartment she had lived in for 20 years.
Up until a year ago, Ila Harvey lived in a small, low-rise complex owned by the War Widows Guild at Drummoyne, in Sydney's inner-west.
When Ila lost her soldier husband, who had served on the Kokoda Track and at Milne Bay in New Guinea, she found herself friends in her local area and hobbies that kept her busy.
However, this time last year, she was told the complex was being sold because the Guild had run out of funds, and the sale would help better serve the Guild's four thousand members.
Ila said the Guild suggested she move to a nursing home, but she felt there was still plenty of living to do, reported Nine News.
After contacting a nearby MP, Ila and her family members started lobbying for support from the government.
Her situation was eventually passed on to the Better Regulations Minister Matt Kean, who made an interesting discovery.
Mr Kean found that under the Retirement Villages Act, the Guild was obliged to provide Ila with support to find similar accommodation.
However, as the Guild have sold seven similar properties in their possession since 2002, the chances of her finding accommodation were slim.
But, when the NSW branch of the RSL heard her story, they stepped in to help the widow.
A new place in Cherrybrook was found for Ila through its aged accommodation arm RSL Life Care and state president James Brown.
After months of uncertainty, Ila is celebrating her new home with the people who helped her get it.
Meanwhile, the Guild wrestles with what to do with their Drummoyne site after Canada Bay Council's independent planning and assessment panel rejected the proposal to demolish Ila's old complex.

Running In The Rain
What a great feeling to wake up and be warm. Today we did 11 miles which seems a lot easier after a good night sleep and a big breakfast. After the hike we headed into town to resupply for the next two days. It rained all day while we hiked, it was really nice to be able to go back to Bob and Sandy's house and warm our boots by the fire. Bob has offered to drive us ahead so that we can all hike together tomorrow, these people are too kind. We are happy to be inside doing our laundry and dishes as we listen to the thunder and lightning outside. We are going to shower again and get our packs ready for another 9 miles tomorrow.

Rock-Wallabies Fighting Back
Date: 30-Mar-17
Author: Ryan Collins
It's always great to hear a story about a threatened species that's fighting back, especially when they are found nowhere else on the planet. The Australian brush-tailed rock-wallaby is one of those species and their comeback in the Grampians National Park is not before time.
The battle to save the brush-tailed rock-wallaby has been going on for many years, with captive bred populations created as part of numerous release programs across Victoria and New South Wales.
Planet Ark's Recycling Programs Manager, Ryan Collins was involved back in 2009 whilst working for WWF-Australia in what was then the biggest ever release of captive bred Brush-tailed Rock-wallabies. The 23 wallabies were flown by helicopter onto the top of a mountain in the Warrumbungle National Park.
In the Grampians, the last surviving rock-wallaby was captured in 1999 in an attempt to ensure the local population's survival. Key areas were closed off to human recreational use, like rock climbing, to enable the implementation of captive release programs. After several disappointing results since 2008 due to high mortality and low reproduction rates, success has occurred with four new offspring raising the colony's numbers to eight wallabies.
In an interview with the ABC, Ryan Duffy, a coordinator behind one of the programs said, "We've gone through some tough times but to finally start to see this glimmer of success, for me personally, it's quite uplifting."
These unique and beautiful acrobats of rocky outcrops and cliff ledges have done it tough since the red fox was introduced for hunting by European settlers and became their major predator. Habitat loss and hunting by humans hasn't helped. Currently, their genetic decline due to the low population and long-term isolation are threats that recovery teams are looking to resist.
Mount Rothwell Biodiversity Interpretation Centre in Little River plays an integral role working with the University of Melbourne to introduce new genes into the species. The process, known as outcrossing, increases genetic diversity, making them fitter, healthier and more able to "rock out" in the wild.

A season ago, Cooper City stunned St. Thomas Aquinas and high school football fans across South Florida when it went into Piccolo Stadium and upset the then-nationally ranked Raiders, 21-16.
The win ended years of frustration for Cooper City. It marked the first time since 1972 that the Cowboys had beaten the Raiders. And it came after four meetings where St. Thomas outscored Cooper City 239-17.
St. Thomas avenged that loss in the regional semifinals, ending the Cowboys season, but as the two teams prepare to meet again on Friday, Cooper City is hoping it can recapture some of the magic from that improbable win.
For many Cooper City players, seeing they had the ability to compete with St. Thomas was big. To see they could beat the Raiders, well, that was huge.
The Cowboys (4-4) go into their Friday night matchup again knowing they're probably the underdogs again. They graduated a number of players from last year's team and are young. St. Thomas, meanwhile, is 6-2 and has been playing well since a loss to Miramar.
But Cowboys coach Art Taylor believes his players have something now, that they may not have had in years past: confidence.
"Just to know that they are beatable, it plays a lot in their minds," Taylor said. "Once you have that thought that you can beat somebody, then you have a chance. It doesn't mean you're going to. But at least you know it's been done before. It's not taboo. It gives us just a little confidence, but once that whistle blows, it just comes down to playing."
