Learn about Shop The Neighbourhood
Shop The Neighbourhood is a national Yellow Pages initiative that encourages Canadians to build stronger communities –– and adopt healthy and sustainable shopping habits –– by supporting local small businesses.
Supporting local businesses.
Building stronger communities.
There are more than 1 million small businesses in Canada, employing over 8 million Canadians. Yellow Pages encourages Canadian shoppers to vary their buying habits throughout the year to support the small businesses in their communities.
Originally timed to coincide with the Black Friday and Cyber Monday shopping weekend, Shop The Neighbourhood is now a year round campaign aimed at encouraging Canadians to make local purchases; helping Canadian small businesses succeed and grow; and helping Canadian neighbourhoods thrive.
Now, small businesses can organize a Shop The Neighbourhood event and invite local businesses to participate. They can also show their support by downloading and displaying the Shop The Neighbourhood cling on their storefront and a digital banner on their website.
Why shop local?
Shopping local is a great way to give back to your neighbourhood, both culturally as well as economically. Local business owners and staff share your community's interests, and are often personally invested in the welfare and future of the neighbourhood. Supporting your local shops helps create lasting connections between neighbours and builds stronger community spirit both short- and long-term.
Why encourage local shopping?
Small businesses are the economic backbone of Canada. Dollars spent within the neighbourhood directly benefit the local economy and tend to be re-invested within the community, both in terms of job creation and in the contracting of locally-based supplies and services. Supporting local businesses also helps keep decision-making power close to home; and business operations and activities which may affect the community are made locally, by people aware of the impacts those decisions have on the surrounding neighbourhood.
Shop The Neighbourhood: Our history
Yellow Pages introduced the Shop The Neighbourhood campaign in 2013 to encourage Canadian shoppers to support small businesses in their communities.
In just one year alone, more than 12,500 businesses across Canada participated in the Shop The Neighbourhood event, over 1 million Canadians expressed their support to the campaign by shopping in their neighbourhoods, and $155 million went to Canada's local economy as a result.
Shop The Neighbourhood – a year-round campaign
Get involved!
Plan a Shop The Neighbourhood event in your neighbourhood. Participating businesses can also download and print a Shop The Neighbourhood digital window cling to display on their storefront, and download digital banners for their website and social media pages. You can also get useful resources you need to help plan your event by clicking on the link below.
As a shopper, all you have to do is vary your purchasing habits to include buying goods and services offered in your neighbourhood and at small independent businesses!

BT gets superfast Welsh broadband contract
BT has won the contract to roll out superfast broadband throughout Wales, aiming to provide 96 per cent of the country with internet connections of up to 80Mbps, with some areas receiving speeds as high as 330Mbps.
Creating 50 new jobs and 100 apprenticeships, the project is being funded by £58m of Welsh government money, £57m of the UK government's Broadband Delivery UK scheme, and £90m from the European Regional Development Fund. The ERDF pledged £6 of funding for every £1 of Welsh investment.
Total of £220m to Welsh communications strategies
BT is as well contributing a total of £220m to Welsh communications strategies, two-thirds of which the company says will be used exclusively for the broadband rollout.
"The project will transform the broadband landscape across Wales and ensure that local businesses can become global businesses. It will ensure that firms remain in Wales and it will as well attract a more diverse range of high-growth, high-value companies to the country across all our key sectors, from tourism to high-end manufacturing."
In a statement, BT outlined how the plan for Wales includes giving smaller businesses access to "big business" applications just as cloud services, data centres, backup, storage and fast data processing.
According to Ofcom, more than 20 per cent of Welsh homes currently receive broadband connections of less than 2Mbps, so domestic consumers - or those working from home in an increasingly telecommuting business world - will as well benefit from the scheme.

Groundhog Day
It's funny how you never know what a new day will bring.
Yesterday was grand. Herself and I went for a wee drive which was great. No problems. Also did some work on the Estate, chatted to neighbours and had a friend around.
Today all hell broke loose and Herself is back in hospital. We had the full works – ambulance and three young things wearing space suits carting her off and ignoring al her protestations.
So I'm on my own.
Apart from Penny and Cat of course.
I have the strangest feeling that I have been here before?

What's Cookin'?
Since we are talking about The Netherlands, Germany, and Northern Europe in Geography right now I thought this was the perfect companion dinner. The fact that I only had to buy a bag of carrots and an onion only added to my thrill. Also, since I rarely can leave a recipe alone, this is done my way (here and here are some recipes I found that I adjusted). That means tossing in a beef soup bone for added nutrition and, after cooking and straining, adding in some 'mush' from my last juicing adventure earlier in the week.
1-1/2 lb organic potatoes (the rest of the bag from the beef stew)
1 lb organic carrots (I left out 2 huge ones so dc would have some for snacks later)
1/2 large yellow or white onion (I would've used the whole onion but I thought I could use some for something else)
Optional: Any meat you would like to serve it with or add to it later.
Chop the potatoes, carrots, and onion (and beef soup bone if using). Place in the crockpot with plenty of water for them to boil and cook throughout the day (I put in 2 quarts water) until tender.
Remove the soup bone; drain the water. Mash. [This is where I added my juicing pulp] Add Butter and melt while stirring. Add milk and stir. Add salt, pepper, spices/herbs to taste. [This is where I added just less than 1/2 pound pre-cooked ground chicken].
We were literally scraping the crock pot to get every last little bit.

Thanks for your professionalism. I will be happy to share my experience with people who are important to me.
Beautiful salon, fantastic staff, special praise for Ana who is a really fantastic beautician, works fast and great, is open for consultations, and with her advice the results are immediately visible!

FeeSynergy Collect an intuitive, easy to use system. The user interface and dashboard has equipped us with the right information to make fast and smart decisions. We have experienced an immediate reduction in debtors, our processing time has been reduced and key system features have enabled better communication. We are highly satisfied with this great system.
Melanie Dawe
Business Manager, Bentleys SA
FeeSynergy Collect simply makes sense. The old adage – cash is king is as true as ever. A great system that is user friendly and support is also a key. Collect delivers on all fronts. November 2018 was a record month of collections for us largely due to the Collect system getting our average debtors days at one point down to 24 days. I cannot think of a single reason not to use FeeSynergy Collect.
Geoff Worsley
General Manager, Accru Harris Orchard
We have been working with FeeSynergy for over 10 years utilising their fee funding and also their online payment gateway. When the FeeSynergy Collect software became available we were very pleased to integrate this into our debtor management process. The team at FeeSynergy worked closely with us to customise the software to our requirements. Since its launch in February 20187 we have seen a significant decrease in both our outstanding debtors and the work required to manage them. We now have an easy, automated system with clear record of actions taken in respect of each invoice and debtor. I would not hesitate to recommend FeeSynergy Collect.
Karen Robinson
General Manager, Hall Chadwick SA
Before transitioning to FeeSynergy our debtors function wasn't automated and was run by a full-time team member. This resulted in debtors of approximately A$2.5 million at an average 67 debtor days. Since implementing FeeSynergy in 2019, we have freed up our debtors team to pursue other tasks, with our total debtors reduced to approximately A$1.1 million and debtor days are down to 34. Cash flow is critical for all businesses and FeeSynergy has delivered exceptional results in managing our cash flow.

Isotopes are a special kind of atom. Atoms with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons are isotopes of each other. For example, Uranium 235 and Uranium 238 are isotopes of the element uranium. They both have 92 protons in their nuclei but have differing numbers of neutrons. The nucleus of Uranium 235 has 92 protons plus 143 neutrons (92 + 243 = 235). The nucleus of Uranium 238 has 92 protons plus 146 neutrons (92 + 146 = 238).
Atom, Proton, and Neutron Briefly Defined
An atom is a tiny component of matter. An atom is 1/100,000 the width of a human hair, a human hair being one of the smallest things that we can see with our unaided eyes. In other words, if we could place 100,000 atoms side-by-side, they would span the width of a human hair, and we would barely be able to see the lot of them as a tiny dot.
An atom is composed of a nucleus surrounded by a negatively charged electron or electrons. Within the nucleus is at least one proton, a positively charged particle and, for the vast majority of elements, one or more neutrons. Protons and neutrons are similar in mass and about 1,837 times heavier than electrons.
An Example–Isotopes of the Hydrogen Atom
This diagram shows the three naturally-occurring stable isotopes of the hydrogen atom. Protium is ordinary hydrogen gas. Its nucleus is made up of one proton (shown in red). It has no neutrons. Deuterium has one proton and one neutron (shown in black). Tritium has one proton and two neutrons. Both deuterium and tritium are rare relative to ordinary hydrogen.
The hydrogen isotopes act similarly in chemical reactions. For example, all three combine with oxygen to form water molecules. In fact, the ocean is one of the best sources of deuterium and tritium. A small fraction of water molecules in the ocean include atoms of deuterium or tritium rather than ordinary hydrogen.
Water molecule. This diagram shows a "ball and stick" model of the atoms that make up a water molecule. A hydrogen atom (red) bonds with two oxygen atoms (white). The colors in the diagram are arbitrary.
Isotopes Behave Similarly in Chemical Reactions
Isotopes behave similarly to other isotopes of the same element in chemical reactions because such reactions don't depend on the properties of atomic nuclei. Rather they depend on the number and arrangement of an atom's electrons.
Because isotopes react similarly in chemical reactions, it can be quite difficult to separate one isotope from another. This creates a challenge when separating isotopes that are radioactive from non-radioactive isotopes of the same element. Scientists have developed separation techniques that are used in both creating fuel for both nuclear bombs and nuclear reactors.
Isotopes Vary in Weight and Radioactivity
Due to differences in their nuclei, the three hydrogen isotopes vary primarily in their weight and in their radioactive properties. Ordinary hydrogen, with no neutrons, is lightest, followed by deuterium, and then tritium. Ordinary hydrogen is not naturally radioactive. Deuterium is not naturally radioactive but is useful in nuclear reactors due to its vulnerability to nuclear fission. Tritium is naturally radioactive and gives off a greenish glow. This glow is put to use in creating the light of some Exit signs.

Think outside the box.
It was a beautiful summer day on Cape Cod. I sat outside tinkering with my harp and marveling at the perfect weather. As I wove my way through various chord progressions, I found a melody that reminded me of something. The pattern of notes sounded delicate and implied movement and grace. The memory was of a small music box I had as a child. Its wooden lid opened and a glass window displayed the intricate workings that created the wandering tune.
As I repeated the melody and added and shifted notes, it became apparent to me that this small wooden box held similarities with us humans. Yes-the spirit is strong AND (not but) there are delicate workings below the surface.
Taking care of the mind, body and spirit can be achieved in many ways. For me, the harp is my self-care. It's my respite from the hectic world and my busy mind.
Are you looking for ways to take better care of yourself? Think outside the box. Notice what you're drawn toward or perhaps what you used to be drawn to as a child. If it's music, consider spending some time listening to what soothes your mind, body, spirit.
So here it is-my Cape Cod summer day composition, Gentle Turning, performed on my 26 string harp. Enjoy:)

Back in February, I shared my favorite song from each 'Miracle of Sound' album.
This proved to be very difficult, as there are so many great songs there!
So I have decided to make a Top 10 or Top 5 list for each album, depending on how big the album is to begin with.
Here goes!
5. Nord Mead
A merry drinking song from the Nord warriors of Skyrim.
There is no better way to get your thirst up than slaying dragons!
4. Joker's Song
A ballad sung by The Joker, to his archnemesis The Batman.
This song gives you a look into the mind of the best villain in DC Comics.
3. Life In Bullet Time
The Max Payne series is gritty neo-noir about the titular Max Payne, an ex-cop with a grudge.
This song mixes Max's survivor's guilt and self-destructive behaviour with the game-series iconic gameplay feature, bullet-time.
2. Shooter Guy
This satirical song showcases a lot of the clichés you can find in video game shooters, while still appreciating them.
After watching this, you can get a good idea about the experience of playing around 80% of all shooters.
1. Take It Back
If you liked this music, you can buy the album here!

Lentil as Anything's Footscray outpost has been forced to close.
Despite a Go Fund Me campaign that raised $5000, the restaurant was forced to close on May 19.
Like Lentil's other locations in Melbourne and Sydney, the restaurant used a pay-what-you-feel system that, while providing a lifeline to those struggling economically, also left the business open to exploitation.
Save 20% when you buy two or more Broadsheet books. Order now to make sure they arrive in time for Christmas.SHOP NOW
Speaking to Broadsheet in March, the venue's Footscray manager Renae Greer Burt said despite the good will promoted by the restaurant, "The food isn't free, we're exchanging it for a contribution of some sort."
It's unknown at this stage if Lentil's other venues are also affected.

text: As far as British imports go, the IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) may not be as big as the Beatles. But the methodology is gaining adherents among CIOs who want to better manage the quality of the services they deliver.ITIL, which was developed by the British government and is now under the aegis of its Office of Government Commerce (www.ogc.gov.uk), comprises a set of best practices for IT service management, addressing such areas as service delivery, service support, service-management implementation, infrastructure management, applications management and business perspective.In the United States, interest in the library has grown steadily. Corporate and individual membership in the IT Service Management Forum (www.itsmf.net), for example, has increased from 50 members in 1998 to about 15,000 individual members, and attendance at the group\u2019s conferences is increasing by 25 percent each year, says spokeswoman Cynthia Hamm. (The forum meets next in Long Beach, Calif., from Sept. 22 through Oct. 2, 2004.) One of ITIL\u2019s most popular features among CIOs is its use of service-level agreements (SLAs) to ensure that IT and its clients have a mutually agreed-upon way to deliver and monitor the quality of service. Steve Bittinger, a Gartner research director, says IT groups that were pressed to cut costs and sign SLAs find the library useful. "ITIL provides a starting point for process definition for those organizations whose internal processes may need improvement." Paper-products giant MeadWestvaco is about six months into an ITIL initiative that James McGrane, CIO and vice president of enterprise information solutions, hopes will help information techology personnel understand the role they play in a process-based organization."We\u2019re working out service-level agreements with our business partners," he reports. "They can use these clear metrics to judge our performance."For his part, McGrane is a big proponent of focusing on processes?rather than raw technology?to gain efficiency. "I believe in process work. In effect, you\u2019re managing outcomes?not tasks. Disciplined processes allow us to introduce change into the organization and become more agile."

Job interviews can be some of the most stressful hour-long periods in a person's life, especially when these interviews result in high-stakes accomplishments (or failures). Some interviews are more difficult than others, but even the most straightforward interviews are no laughing matter.
Plus, believe it or not, a difficult interview is actually a good thing! According to statistics gathered in 2015, an interview process that is 10% more difficult led to 2.6% higher rates of employee satisfaction post-hiring.
With the COVID-19 at large, interviews are now being conducted via video calls. A number of people are searching and getting hired for remote jobs. An Online Career Coach can help to prepare and master an online interview for remote work.
Why interviews matter.
You know what they say—you never get a second chance to make a first impression, and it's often estimated that you only have about seven seconds to make a stunning first impression to your interviewer or recruiter. This is why knowing how to prepare for an interview and appropriately answer job interview questions is such an important skill!
Add to myWE:
A job interview is often a recruiter's only opportunity to meet you in person, making interviews the most organic way for a new company or future boss to learn what you're made of and why you're the perfect fit for the position. The interview is your time to shine, to highlight your talents and your personality, and to discuss the goals and ideas you can bring to the table.
Preparing for a successful interview.
You could spend time online muddling through lists and lists full of interview tips that may or may not work for your particular situation, or you could aim for an all-in-one solution that is tailored specifically to your individual career pursuits and needs.
This package deal comes in the form of an Online Career Coach, a professional who is trained in the art of helping their Clients to prepare for the career they want rather than the career they have.
Throughout your sessions with an online career coaching Expert, a Career Coach will guide you through the process of learning how to answer interview questions, what to wear, how to tackle interview anxiety, what to do for the best mental preparation, and how to stand apart from the crowd for an unforgettable and successful interview experience.
They may do this by giving you a list of practice interview questions relevant to your field of work, or they may encourage you to perform a mock interview with them so that they can analyze your performance.

In this research, we investigate whether reusable classes can be characterized by object-oriented (OO) software metrics. Three class-level reuse measures for the OO paradigm are defined: inheritance-based reuse, inter-application reuse by extension, and inter-application reuse as a server. Using data from a software company, we collected metrics on Smalltalk classes. Among the 20 metrics collected are cyclomatic complexity, Lorenz complexity, lines of code, class coupling, reuse ratio, specialization ratio and number of direct subclasses. We used stepwise regression to derive prediction models incorporating the 20 metrics as the independent variables and the reuse measures, applied separately, as the dependent variable. Inheritance-based reuse and inter-application reuse by extension can be predicted using a subset of the 20 metrics. Two prediction models for inheritance-based reuse and inter-application reuse by extension were validated using a new set of 310 Smalltalk and VisualAge applications and subapplications. Validation results show that it is possible to predict whether a class from one application can be reused by extension in another application. We also conducted a t-test to test whether the mean metric values between reusable and non-reusable classes are the same. Results suggest that there exists significant differences in the mean metric values between the reusable and non-reusable classes.

Saudi Arabia Invites the World to Enter the Metaverse at WTTC Global Summit in Riyadh
The 22nd edition of the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) Global Summit in Saudi Arabia will be attended by a galaxy of tourism leaders in Riyadh. It is also supported by a metaverse experience created for potential investors to explore investment opportunities and take part in some of the sessions that will be livestreamed from the Saudi capital.
According to the release, the use of the metaverse at the Summit is a practical example of how the Kingdom is already implementing its pioneering three-year Digital Tourism Strategy that was launched earlier in the year as the next step in its development of the sector.
Over the next three years Saudi plans to encourage experimentation to allow technology innovators to test new digital tourism solutions, to support tourism related extended reality applications and to incorporate technology that makes Hajj visits safer and more efficient than ever for millions of pilgrims. The use of this technology at the Summit is another important step along that road.
For the first time, the Summit in Riyadh is being live streamed to the general public, and those attending virtually can choose to join some of the livestream sessions via the metaverse or on the public live stream available at https://metaverse.globalsummitriyadh.com/
Commenting on this virtual first, Saudi Arabia's Minister of Tourism, His Excellency Ahmad Al Khateeb, said, "WTTC will arrive in Riyadh as tourism enters a new era of recovery and we welcome the world to join them virtually in our metaverse. Bringing together global leaders from both the public and private sector, the Summit will be fundamental in building the better, brighter future the sector deserves and technology and innovation will be key to our collective future success."
The metaverse experience has been designed to be easy to use, engaging and a novel introduction of how the metaverse can support and enhance physical events both for those on site and for those that wish to engage virtually only. Attendees can choose to create their own avatar, watch the live sessions available and set up appointments with exhibitors.
It will allow the user to explore Saudi as a tourist destination, see how the Kingdom is using technology to transform tourism, watch session highlights and gain insights on the topics being discussed. Users will also be able to connect with a global audience by discussing trending topics in the networking area as an avatar using both text chat and voice chat functionality.
The interactive nature will also enable individuals to understand the investment opportunities offered by Saudi Arabia and engage in live interaction in the investor's gallery and ask questions in real time.
This year's event has the theme "Travel for a Better Future" and will bring together global thought leaders to discuss the pressing issues affecting the post pandemic travel and tourism sector. It will feature a line-up of globally renowned speakers including Ban Ki-moon, former Secretary-General of the United Nations, and Lady Theresa May, a former British Prime Minister.
Saudi Arabia has already begun investing heavily in tourism projects that foster innovation, with the highest profile being NEOM that has become the world's most ambitious tourism project. This futuristic city being developed in North West Saudi Arabia will be a showcase of world-leading design and immersive digital experiences, smart cities and research areas.
It is hoped that this global gathering of tourism experts will foster an enhanced spirit of collaboration between countries as they journey along new and innovative development paths that are essential to help ensure the sustainability of the sector.

We at Lifeforce Records are extremely excited to welcome Polish blackened death metal act DEVILISH IMPRESSIONS to the family. It was very easy to convince us with their qualities as musicians and as extremely professional and hard working people! The bands Lifeforce Records debut and third album "Simulacra" will be released July 30th in Europe and July 31st in North America.
"We're very pleased to land this record deal with LIFEFORCE RECORDS. From all the offers we've got this one seems to be our best option at this point of the band's career and we truly believe working with them will push us up a huuuge step forward. What impressed us the most was Stefan's, the label's driving force, work ethic and attitude towards DEVILISH IMPRESSIONS music. His seriousness and passion about the band let us believe this was the best choice we've made. The worldwide release of the "Simulacra" album will initiate our new partnership and we can't wait to see where it is going to bring us in the years to come" – comments Devilish Impressions mainman, Quazarre.
Despite having only two albums under their belt DEVILISH IMPRESSIONS quickly managed to put their name out there. Critically acclaimed records and intense touring along with some of the biggest names onto the metal scene made them one of the most promising acts on the European map of extreme music. After a row of personal problems that eventually caused several line-up changes and temporary stage absence, the band strikes back with the brand new opus called "SIMULACRA" and is now ready to take the scene by storm again.
"SIMULACRA" is the 3rd full-length by DEVILISH IMPRESSIONS, considered as one of Poland's leading and most innovative modern black / death metal acts. Wrapped in breath-taking artwork created by Xaay (NILE, KAMELOT, NECROPHAGIST etc.) the album also features guest appearances of Orion (BEHEMOTH, VESANIA), Jacek Grecki (LOST SOUL) and Roman Berežnicki (LECTER) as well as session synth / samples / fx appearance by Flumen (ASGAARD) and Lestath (METRANSMISSIONAL).
SIMULACRA – In Stores
July 27th – G/A/S + Digital
July 30th – Europe
July 31st – North America

Most of us make things happen, get results, and deliver. But ask us if we're focused on building our vision, on our big goals or if we even know what our big goal is, and what will likely follow is some combination of this: a big pause, or a look down at the carpeted floor, or talk of corporate handcuffs, or a nervous laugh, or a sudden change of subject.
Creative, entrepreneurial types of people are awesome idea generators, but we can be challenged to create focus rather than doing more. I wrote about this in the post, The Biggest Impact. The analogy was that this disbursed attention to many things resulted in something more like a field of flowers, rather than a Sequoia. Beautiful, but not Big. But what I heard from you is that we often don't know how to pick the Sequoia — the big idea that can be seen from far away.
When work teams kill off options and pick the one thing to focus on, they have a better chance of winning against the competition. On a personal level, it's not about being able to win in the marketplace as much as succeeding at being your biggest, best self. (And that may be mean in the marketplace, also) Focus gives each of us a better chance of chasing our dream, because we actually know what it is and are willing to put our energy towards that dream. That, at least, gives each of us a chance of living our dream.
10 Steps to a Fighting "Chance To Live Your Dream":
- Create space. Brain research says we all make better decisions when we have space. None of us can make good decisions if we are conflicted, tired, or unsupported. When we are overspending, and have no financial reserves, we feel conflicted. Our challenge becomes make lots of $$ while ALSO trying to be passionate. Which is not to say you can't design for both conditions; it just raises the bar for what make the list. This conflict limits choices. We can be tired because we're in the middle of a lot of family drama. We can be in a relationship that doesn't support us changing. None of us can make the best decisions in those conditions. Unwinding conflicts or fatigue might take a good nights' sleep, or a yoga class, or a run in the sunshine, or a summer away in France, or going to Hoffman, or saving up a years worth of reserves. But resolve it you must.
- Figure out the Goal. For some, their purpose is to shape an industry, another must become a designer, another want a particular type of work environment, another wants a way to always be learning. Without knowing why you care, and what fuels you, you actually can't make any decision. Jonah Lehrer, Barry Schwartz and David Welch have all written great books on the art of decision-making. Barry makes the point that having too many choices is actually our biggest challenge. Our way to deal with that is to know what we're designing for. It can be multi-sided. (For example, it can be a quality of life, while contributing in a particular domain.) But it is not about what someone else wants for you. It is what matters to you, what you want to create.
- For Now. This is not to say your goal will be the goal forever. When we focus, we are not saying no to many other options. What we're actually saying is YES to 1 thing, and NOT NOW to all the other things. You're not giving up on the potential of many options. You're just picking what you most want to focus on NOW. (Logging or tracking those other options so they can be there for later really helps comfort this worry.) Rather than thinking about the entire future of life, think about what 1 thing could I do really well that would make a meaningful difference in the next period of time (i.e. few years). Once you are done with that period of time, then you can look up at the horizon again and pick a new point to aim towards.
- Not About Being Perfect. There is no such thing as a perfect choice. You need to get over that. Schwartz has countless examples of how we spend time over what paint to choose or what dinner choice, and his big point for life is that you'll never know perfectly all the choices and often good enough is good enough. What you need to do is figuring out what is right for you, and then be okay with that. Everyone else can live their life. You are designing for yours.
- Accept imperfect information. The underlying fear is that we'll regret our selection; that if we can find out more or do more, the decision will get easier. That assumes the answer is outside you. That someone else can give you more information and that will help. Rarely is a decision about the information itself, but about what we want. Return to step 2.
- Don't Fool Yourself. If you're like Shaherose or other leaders like her, you will then say, hey I can also do this, and that (and that and that). No, really you can't. It may be an hour here or an hour there, but it adds up and it's a tax of psychic energy. If you're going to big, you need to put the attention and energy in a dedicated area. People fear that those other opportunities won't be there later, but life has a way of giving you many opportunities over time. And for all the people who feel offended you don't have time for them, well, tell them (silently) you'll be offended you don't have time for your dream.
- Ask for Help. Figure out who could help you in this new direction and then surround yourself with those folks. If you are an entrepreneur, figure out who should be on your Board of Advisors and if they will help you shape your idea.
- Inspire Yourself. Sitting by oneself rarely does genius make. So make sure you are getting a regular influx of high caliber ideas. Whatever your domain, figure out who is the BEST in that space and either hang with them in real life, at conferences, or virtually.
- Set different Measures. Going for a big goal means that we don't have the same scoreboard as when we are doing many things. We move from transactions or daily/weekly wins to a bigger outcome. We need to decide what we can measure, that show us we're meeting our goal. Remember this is not about outside validation, but internal clarity. Which means you can decide what those measures are. (If we used the fitness analog, it's not about a certain weight point but measuring healthy food choices, or volume, or activity levels or some combination of such things.) If writing, it's not about whether this specific work will be a best seller, but whether I've done my best effort at writing 1000 words every day. To focus on the far away horizon seems defeating but you can break down that journey into parts you can manage. Then call that the win.
- Finally, pick. Until you have picked, and been clear that you have picked to yourself, you actually continue to be ineffective. You hesitate, you pause. You hope for more clarity. But all that is doing is actually killing your energy to move forward. So the actual process of deciding and getting clear creates the power of going forward. You can reevaluate and analyze the decision, later. Decide you'll stick to this path for x period of time. Without question, without doubt, and then go do it. And, for those that are saying to themselves, "this all sounds risky", remind yourself the most risky decision is not making one. The people who say they want to work on their book but then also hold down their day job are really not picking. They have never said, I can do this, and so they never do. Actions follow decisions. And outcomes follow actions.
I've gone through the CEO to TBD transition this year very much using this methodology; I'm simply repurposing all my business lessons of MurderBoarding for personal strategizing. So even though I've written sort of a 10-easy steps language, please know …nothing I'm writing of is easy to do. Nothing. There is no template to follow, no outside validation that what you're doing is right. It's hard. It's nearly painful. Because, it's chock full of tough choices and tradeoffs and letting go of "what is" to create "what will be".
But the alternative to this hard work is this: I'm not going to have a fighting chance at living my dream. Worse, I could be living someone else's life or a joyless life. What I can say about this process … it is doable. I can't share, yet, that my own application of this process is a "success" in any way I can prove to you but I've picked my big goal (actually 2 specific things that are compatible), and I'm allowed to look up again in 14 months (September 2012) to reassess.
Let me know what resonates/questions, challenges, et al. I welcome a dialogue, as always. But especially on this topic; this is the first time I've written on this choice process (ala MurderBoarding) in a personal context. So I am sure there's gaps you can help me see.
I wish you all a fighting chance to live your dream by picking your big idea and going for it.

Hi! How can I assign Sitecatalyst data on my site to different Omniture segments based on a some JS variables? What variable in the data layer points to segments? Thanks a lot.
Here's a thought and a suggestion because it seems like you're looking to create data. TealiumIQ (TIQ) has a great capability found in the Extensions tab of the TIQ interface, called "Set Data Values."
This extension allows users to create a variable on the fly to make available in the mapping toolbox of Adobe Analytics.
Here is a link with more information:

Hi @sean_browning, thank you! I'm familiar with that extension. The question is about Sitecatalyst segments. There are segments created in the backend checking for Page contains 'abc : xyz' Now even when in my profile the s.pageName is set to 'abc : xyz' it is not entering that particular segment. Is it possible to assign data directly to Omniture segments in Tealium itself? Thank you

Action If a 608 hang is encountered, verify that the ClientName.info file exists in the /tftpboot directory. If it does not exist, retry the NIM operation to create it. If it does exist, verify that tftp access to the /tftpboot directory is not restricted in the /etc/tftpaccess.ctl file. is also possible that the network adapter was not configured properly in the boot environment

611 - Remote mount of NFS file system failure
Action 611 hangs occur when the client machine is unable to mount a resource from a server. Ensure that NFS is running on the resource server. Verify that the resources specified for the operation are exported properly by checking the /etc/exports and /etc/xtab files on the server. Also, confirm that the resources have permissions set correctly for reading.
613 - Failure setting up route tables
Action 613 hangs usually occur because a route is incorrectly defined for a network in the NIM database. Verify that the correct gateways are specified between networks, and all gateways are functional. Use debug-enabled network boot images to determine which routes could not be defined.
Migrating AIX to new versions USING NIM LIVE alt_disk_install
It can be done using nimadm command.
Updating NIM lppsource and SPOT
If your NIM environment has a mixture of TL levels, then in order to have some NIM clients at the original level, you need to keep a copy of the original lpp_source and SPOT level. These clients will still need the original level of lpp_source and SPOT.
01. Create a new lppsource directory. In this example, we will update AIX 6.1 TL 6 to TL 7
#mkdir /export/nim/lppsource/6107
02. Copy the TL6 lopsource to TL 7 directory
#cp -rp /export/nim/lppsource/6106/* /export/nim/lppsource/6107
03. Create a new lppsource for TL7 using the copied files
#nim -o define -t lpp_source -a server=master -l /export/nim/lppsource/6107 6107-lppsource
04. Update the lppsource to the latest level. If the updates of are stored in the /updates directory, then
#nim -o update -a packages=all -a source=/updates 6107-lppsource
05. After lpp_source is updated, there might be some duplicate updates. You can perform the NIM lppmgr operation to remove them. This operation enables you remove any duplicate software, superseded updates, unnecessary languages, and non-simage software.
#nim -o lppmgr -a lppmgr_flags="-bu -x -r -e" 6107-lppsource
06. Create a new SPOT using the updated lppsource

Documentation ¶
Overview ¶
Package config is used to configure software systems. A configuration managed by package config is called a profile. The binary that loads a profile declares a set of named, global objects through the APIs in this package. A profile configures these objects (objects may depend on each other, forming a DAG) and lets the user retrieve configured objects through its API.
The semantics of profiles provide the kind of flexibility that is often required in operational contexts. Profiles define a principled overriding so that a base configuration can be extended by the user, either by composing multiple configuration or by editing the configuration through a command-line integration. Profiles may also derive multiple instances from the same base instance in order to provide small variations on instance configuration. Profiles define a concrete syntax so that they may be stored (e.g., centrally) or transmitted over a network connection (e.g., to bootstrap a remote binary with a particular configuration). Profiles are also self-documenting in the manner of Go's flag package. Profiles are resolved lazily, and thus maintain configuration for unknown instances, so long as these are never retrieved. This permits a single profile to be reused across many binaries without concern for compatibility.
Profile syntax ¶
A profile contains a set of clauses, or directives. Each clause either declares a new instance or configures an existing instance. Clauses are interpreted in order, top-to-bottom, and later configurations override earlier configurations. These semantics accommodate for "overlays", where for example a user profile is loaded after a base profile to provide customization. Within GRAIL, a base profile is declared in the standard package github.com/grailbio/base/grail, which also loads a user profile from $HOME/grail/profile.
A parameter is set by the directive param. For example, the following sets the parallelism parameter on the instance bigslice to 1024:
param bigslice parallelism = 1024
The values supported by profiles are: integers, strings, booleans, floats, and indirections (naming other instances). The following shows an example of each:
param bigslice load-factor = 0.8 param bigmachine/ec2system username = "marius" param bigmachine/ec2system on-demand = false param s3 retries = 8
As a shortcut, parameters for the same instance may be grouped together. For example, the two parameters on the instance bigmachine/ec2system may be grouped together as follows:
param bigmachine/ec2system ( username = "marius" on-demand = false )
Instances may refer to each other by name. The following configures the aws/ticket instance to use a particular ticket path and region; it then configures bigmachine/ec2system to use this AWS session.
param aws/ticket ( path = "eng/dev/aws" region = "us-west-2" ) param bigmachine/ec2system aws = aws/ticket
Profiles may also define new instances with different configurations. This is done via the instance directive. For example, if we wanted to declare a new bigmachine/ec2system that used on-demand instances instead of spot instances, we could define a profile as follows:
instance bigmachine/ec2ondemand bigmachine/ec2system param bigmachine/ec2ondemand on-demand = false
Since it is common to declare an instance and configure it, the profile syntax provides an affordance for combining the two, also through grouping. The above is equivalent to:
instance bigmachine/ec2ondemand bigmachine/ec2system ( on-demand = false username = "marius-ondemand" // (any other configuration to be changed from the base) )
New instances may depend on any instance. For example, the above may be further customized as follows.
instance bigmachine/ec2ondemand-anonymous bigmachine/ec2ondemand ( username = "anonymous" )
Customization through flags ¶
Profile parameters may be adjusted via command-line flags. Profile provides utility methods to register flags and interpret them. See the appropriate methods for more details. Any parameter may be set through the provided command-line flags by specifying the path to the parameter. As an example, the following invocations customize aspects of the above profile.
# Override the ticket path and the default ec2system username. # -set flags are interpreted in order, and the following is equivalent # to the clauses # param aws/ticket path = "eng/prod/aws" # param bigmachine/ec2system username = "anonymous" $ program -set aws/ticket.path=eng/prod/aws -set bigmachine/ec2system.username=anonymous # User the aws/env instance instead of aws/ticket, as above. # The type of a flag is interpreted based on underlying type, so # the following is equivalent to the clause # param bigmachine/ec2system aws = aws/env $ program -set bigmachine/ec2system.aws=aws/env
Default profile ¶
Package config also defines a default profile and a set of package-level methods that operate on this profile. Most users should make use only of the default profile. This package also exports an http handler on the path /debug/profile on the default (global) ServeMux, which returns the global profile in parseable form.

Get retrieves the value of the parameter named by the provided path on the default profile.
func Instance ¶
Instance retrieves the instance with the provided name into the provided pointer from the default profile. See Profile.Instance for more details.
func Merge ¶
func Merge(p *Profile)
Merge merges profile p into the default profile. See Profile.Merge for more details.
func Must ¶
func Must(name string, ptr interface{})
Must is a version of get which calls log.Fatal on error.
func Parse ¶
Parse parses the profile in reader r into the default profile. See Profile.Parse for more details.
func ProcessFlags ¶
func ProcessFlags() error
ProcessFlags processes the flags as registered by RegisterFlags.
func Register ¶
func Register(name string, configure func(*Constructor))
Register registers a constructor and later invokes the provided function whenever a new profile instance is created. Register panics if multiple constructors are registered with the same name. Constructors should typically be registered in package init functions, and the configure function must define at least Constructor.New. For example, the following configures a constructor with a single parameter, n, which simply returns its value.
config.Register("config/test", func(constr *config.Constructor) { n := constr.Int("n", 32, "the number configured") constr.New = func() (interface{}, error) { return *n, nil } constr.Doc = "a customizable integer" })
func RegisterFlags ¶
RegisterFlags registers the default profile on flag.CommandLine with the provided prefix. See Profile.RegisterFlags for details.
Types ¶
type Constructor ¶
type Constructor struct { // New instantiates the value provided by this instance, and // configured by the flags registered. // // TODO(marius): consider making this an interface{} so that we can // inspect the return type (typechecking can be done in Register) // and allow us to perform better type checking. New func() (interface{}, error) // Doc is a string describing the instance. Doc string // contains filtered or unexported fields }
Constructor defines a constructor, as configured by Register. Typically a constructor registers a set of parameters through the flags-like methods provided by Constructor. The value returned by New is configured by these parameters.
func (*Constructor) Bool ¶
func (c *Constructor) Bool(name string, value bool, help string) *bool
Bool registers a boolean parameter with a default value. The returned pointer points to its value.
func (*Constructor) BoolVar ¶
func (c *Constructor) BoolVar(ptr *bool, name string, value bool, help string)
BoolVar registers a boolean parameter with a default value. The parameter's value written to the location pointed to by ptr.
func (*Constructor) Float ¶
func (c *Constructor) Float(name string, value float64, help string) *float64
Float registers floating point parameter with a default value. The returned pointer points to its value.
func (*Constructor) FloatVar ¶
func (c *Constructor) FloatVar(ptr *float64, name string, value float64, help string)
FloatVar register a floating point parameter with a default value. The parameter's value is written to the provided pointer.
func (*Constructor) InstanceVar ¶
func (c *Constructor) InstanceVar(ptr interface{}, name string, value string, help string)
InstanceVar registers a parameter that is satisfied by another instance; the method panics if ptr is not a pointer. The default value is always an indirection; if it is left empty it is taken as the nil value: it remains uninitialized by default.
func (*Constructor) Int ¶
func (c *Constructor) Int(name string, value int, help string) *int
Int registers an integer parameter with a default value. The returned pointer points to its value.
func (*Constructor) IntVar ¶
func (c *Constructor) IntVar(ptr *int, name string, value int, help string)
IntVar registers an integer parameter with a default value. The parameter's value written to the location pointed to by ptr.
func (*Constructor) String ¶
func (c *Constructor) String(name string, value string, help string) *string
String registers a string parameter with a default value. The returned pointer points to its value.
type Profile ¶
type Profile struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
Profile stores a set of parameters and configures instances based on these. It is the central data structure of this package as detailed in the package docs. Each Profile instance maintains its own set of instances. Most users should use the package-level methods that operate on the default profile.
func Application ¶
func Application() *Profile
Application returns the default application profile. The default instance is initialized during the first call to Application (and thus of the package-level methods that operate on the default profile). Because of this, Application (and the other package-level methods operating on the default profile) should not be called during package initialization as doing so means that some global objects may not yet have been registered.
func New ¶
func New() *Profile
New creates and returns a new profile, installing all currently registered global objects. Global objects registered after a call to New are not reflected in the returned profile.
func (*Profile) Get ¶
Get returns the value of the configured parameter at the provided dot-separated path.
func (*Profile) Instance ¶
Instance retrieves the named instance from this profile into the pointer ptr. All of its parameters are fully resolved and the underlying global object is instantiated according to the desired parameterization. Instance panics if ptr is not a pointer type. If the type of the instance cannot be assigned to the value pointed to by ptr, an error is returned. Since such errors may occur transitively (e.g., the type of an instance required by another instance may be wrong), the source location of the type mismatch is included in the error to help with debugging. Instances are cached and are only initialized the first time they are requested.
If ptr is nil, the instance is created without populating the pointer.
func (*Profile) Merge ¶
Merge merges the instance parameters in profile q into p, so that parameters defined in q override those in p.
func (*Profile) NeedProcessFlags ¶
NeedProcessFlags returns true when a call to p.ProcessFlags should not be delayed -- i.e., the flag values have user-visible side effects.
func (*Profile) Parse ¶
Parse parses a profile from the provided reader into p. On success, the instances defined by the profile in src are merged into profile p. If the reader implements
Name() string
then the result of calling Name is used as a filename to provide positional information in errors.
func (*Profile) ProcessFlags ¶
ProcessFlags processes the flags as registered by RegisterFlags, and is documented by that method.
func (*Profile) RegisterFlags ¶
RegisterFlags registers a set of flags on the provided FlagSet. These flags configure the profile when ProcessFlags is called (after flag parsing). The flags are:
-profile path Parses and loads the profile at the given path. This flag may be repeated, loading each profile in turn. If no -profile flags are specified, then the provided default path is loaded instead. If the default path does not exist, it is skipped; other profile loading errors cause ProcessFlags to return an error. -set key=value Sets the value of the named parameter. See Profile.Set for details. This flag may be repeated. -profiledump Writes the profile (after processing the above flags) to standard error and exits.
The flag names are prefixed with the provided prefix.
func (*Profile) Set ¶
Set sets the value of the parameter at the provided path to the provided value, which is intepreted according to the type of the parameter at that path. Set returns an error if the parameter does not exist or if the value cannot be parsed into the expected type. The path is a set of identifiers separated by dots ("."). Paths may traverse multiple indirections.

PFAS Exposures Will Continue Under EPA Plan, Communities Warn
Communities affected by toxic drinking water and PFAS exposure agree that EPA PFAS Action Plan does nothing for communities that have been contaminated without consent for decades.

Philadelphia, PA. — Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced its PFAS Action Plan amidst a flurry of press conferences around the country, and the people impacted by the toxic contamination across the nation are saying it fails to prevent current and future exposure to PFAS in the environment.
PFAS, also known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), are man-made chemicals that are linked to kidney disorders, reproductive cancers, autoimmune disorders and more. The chemicals are estimated to be in the drinking water of at least 110 million Americans.
Local leaders from contaminated communities from across the country, working together through the National PFAS Contamination Coalition, say the plan is woefully inadequate for those that have been suffering from exposure to contamination for decades.
"My family and community in Merrimack, New Hampshire continues to endure active exposure to toxic PFAS substances via air emissions and contaminated water," said Laurene Allen of Merrimack Citizens for Clean Water. "The EPA has chosen to allow this to continue despite being an EPA-identified contamination site for three years and the known harm of the PFAS chemical class."
"Comments we heard today such as 'in process', 'committed to', and 'very soon' we have now heard for years," added Loreen Hackett of #PFOAProjectNY. "Babies are still being born today contaminated from exposed mothers, facing diseases that will last a lifetime. Two decades of information and the solid science, which includes the recent CDC report, absolutely showing lowering risk levels is necessary to be protective of health, isn't enough to yet set MCLs? It's insulting to all of us exposed. Woefully inadequate is an understatement."
"Our efforts began in this issue after the discovery of PFOA used in firefighter turnout gear, we soon learned there are no regulations for textiles. The end user of the Turnout Gear, the first responders, have had no idea of chemical content or amounts used to coat their specialized gear. These PFAS laden textiles are degrading in landfills and make their way to waterways," said Diane Cotter of Your Turnout Gear and PFOA. "We now maintain a growing list of municipal and rural fire stations that are contaminated with PFOA and PFOS thought to be from AFFF training and storage. We fear we are only seeing the tip of the spear."
The National PFAS Contamination Coalition envisions a world where people are no longer exposed to PFAS in their drinking water and their environment, where poisoned people's health is protected, where there is justice for past harms and deaths caused by PFAS and that regulations are in place so that nothing like this happens again. Leaders from impacted communities are calling on the EPA to immediately adopt a national enforceable drinking water standard of 1 part per trillion for combined total concentration of all PFAS that is health protective for infants, children, and vulnerable populations.
"The EPA Plan falls short of meaningful action to help communities that are suffering. It's unacceptable that they're only addressing a couple of chemicals, which is not looking at the broad range of the PFAS Class," said Andrea Amico of Testing for Pease. "The reality is that many communities are exposed to multiple PFAS in their drinking water and the EPA needs to address these compounds as a class to fully address the contamination people are exposed to when they turn on their taps."
"The hazardous substance designation has been discussed for decades," said Arnie Leriche of Need Our Water (NOW). "The EPA and Department of Defence must add more money in the budget to adequately address remediation, which will bring help to these communities."
"While we appreciate the work that went into this document, and the future actions it promises, today's announcement changes nothing for PFAS victims in Westfield," said Kristen Mello of Westfield Residents Advocating for Themselves.
"EPA does not propose any substantive actions to prevent the continued production and use of PFAS – in fact, over the last decade, EPA has registered and approved the use of more than 600 new forms of PFAS," said Laura Olah, Citizens for Safe Water Around Badger. "We cannot stop the flood of PFAS until EPA turns off the tap."
Linda Almazon from the Environmental Justice Task Force in Arizona states, "We express our strongest opposition to this proposal. It is immoral and unacceptable to Tucsonans, that EPA would put us in such a position, that poses a public health hazard to our residents, particularly our children,. EPA needs to stop putting corporate profits before the health of Americans."
"Acting EPA Administrator Wheeler's 'Announcement of the First-Ever Comprehensive Nationwide PFAS Action Plan' gets an 'F' for failure," said Sue Phelan of GreenCAPE. "Failure to establish a Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) for PFAS and failure to designate PFAS as a hazardous substance. Failure to define a cleanup strategy. The Plan made no provisions for protecting our communities today. We expected-and deserve-much more from the EPA. Show us the Action Plan!"
"What is the timeline? Where are dates?" asks Hope Grosse, Bucks-Mont People for Clean Water. "PFAS is not safe, why isn't it being declared a hazardous chemical? This action plan is a disgrace and unacceptable. We will not sit around and wait."
"Unfortunately, this plan doesn't do anything for the quarter of a million residents in Southeastern North Carolina who use the Lower Cape Fear River as their primary source of drinking water," said Emily Donovan of Clean Cape Fear. "99% of Wilmington residents tested have Nafion byproduct 2, a long-chain PFAS with zero available health data or scientific research, in their blood and nothing Trump's EPA proposed today will address our concerns or fears. DuPont, now Chemours, has proven through decades of irresponsible leadership they are ill-equipped to self regulate. We need Trump's EPA and our congressional leaders to take a bold stand against morally inept companies like DuPont and Chemours."
"What about the communities who have been exposed for decades? And what about the thousands of other PFAS chemicals beyond PFOS and PFOA?" asked Mary Jones of Community Action Works. "As an ally from the Coalition, the EPA needs to be listening to the communities at the front lines of this public health crisis."
The National PFAS Contamination Coalition is a network of communities who have been impacted by PFAS contamination, formed to support local community groups responding to pollution in their cities and towns and to work together for national change. PFAS-impacted communities should request to join the Coalition at pfasproject.net/join

Finding Balance in Brand
BY Stacey King Gordon
Getting back to the earth with simple, honest packaging.
Something interesting happens when you talk to Bevan Bloemendaal and Theresa Palermo, two of the minds behind footwear manufacturer Timberland's "green" packaging initiative that launched in 2006. Unprompted, they each start to use words and phrases like authentic. Holistic. And doing more with less.
While it's not unusual for the champions of a well-known socially conscious brand to slip into new-age-sounding talk, it is curious that they use such words to describe work they did in past jobs—Bloemendaal at Footlocker Group and Palermo at Kodak. Yet, for both, the theme of pure and simple branding has carried through their careers. And that background prepared them to pounce when the idea to convey Timberland's social responsibility through packaging began to take shape.
The kernel of the idea to tell Timberland's story actually originated from a challenge by the company's CEO. "Jeff Swartz had, on multiple occasions, asked the team for something that would provide transparency with regard to where and how our products are being manufactured [and] how we [talked] the talk with regard to our environmental footprint—to tell the story from the inside out," says Bloemendaal, senior director of global creative services.
Swartz knew exactly what he wanted to communicate, but the idea of how to get these messages across hadn't yet materialized. After some time, Bloemendaal and his team had a realization: whenever they had a conversation with Swartz about his goals, they noticed he would hold up a food or beverage container that had inspired him, such as a bottle of Honest Tea, with a label that told the company story.
"It didn't take long before we finally realized the obvious, that the medium already existed and was accepted by the consumer as the place to look for information [on] the products they were purchasing," Bloemendaal says. "It was the nutrition label."
The brand and creative teams loved the idea of a design inspired by the FDA's Nutrition Facts. "What an awesome opportunity to be the first in the footwear industry to provide an unprecedented level of transparency to our consumers," Bloemendaal says.
Food manufacturers can tell their stories in marketing copy on their bottles, but the real story is told through the numbers, and the stewards of the Timberland brand were excited about being able to demonstrate the company's commitment in an honest and straightforward way.
The result was the "Our Footprint" label, a diligent listing of facts such as the amount of energy, in kilowatts, used to make each pair of shoes and the city where each pair was manufactured. The "stamp" was originally used on investor communications like the annual social responsibility report, but the creative and brand teams saw the chance for it to become an emblem of the Timberland brand for consumers.
That's where packaging came in.
"I believe [brand and packaging] to be inextricably linked," says Bloemendaal. The creative and brand teams set out to purposefully rethink the packaging to back up, through more discriminating construction and materials, what the Our Footprint label was trying to communicate: the Timberland brand's full commitment to doing good."
The team stripped away everything and started with a blank slate. "We tried to do the bare minimum and have minimal environmental impact," says Palermo, the company's former senior brand manager. (Palermo recently moved to a new position as a director in one of the company's product divisions.)
The brand and creative teams researched and selected soy-based inks, 100 percent recycled, post-consumer waste cardboard and water-based solvents in place of chemical glues.
Palermo says her close work with Bloemendaal on developing the ideas for the new packaging and putting the ideas into action is indicative of a culture of cross-functional collaboration at Timberland. "It's how people work every day," she says. "It's part of who the brand is."
Take, for instance, another major project Palermo worked on in her two years as senior brand manager. The "women's initiative," as it was known, was a drive to transform Timberland footwear from a historically male brand to one that spoke to women. From marketing and advertising to the way products were designed, the company worked together to extend the way Timberland reached out to women.
That initiative segued well into the new packaging rollout. "The value messaging resonates with female consumers even more," Palermo says.
And it is another example of a well-orchestrated effort across a collaborative corporation. From the supply chain helping with durability testing to product development ensuring the shoes would fit in the new boxes, everybody had a hand in helping the new packaging come together.
"We even have an environmental scientist in house, to be able to verify that when the rubber meets the road, our efforts really do have the impact we say they do," says Palermo. "When I came to this company, I used to speak marketing-ese. Now after working with [the scientist], I speak science-ese!"
That collaboration has a global reach. In his eight years at Timberland, Bloemendaal has worked with many disciplines to oversee the design of the company's retail store in Tokyo's prestigious Ginza district. But he counts the Our Footprint design and packaging initiative as one of the projects of which he's most proud. At the end of the day, he believes the package and what it stands for stays with consumers long after they leave the store—and that part of Timberland's brand is helping to salvage the very ecosystem its products are made to enjoy.
"We are pulling on our boots to make a difference, equipping our consumers to feel unstoppable in [their] daily journeys," Bloemendaal says. "Our commitment [is to] reduce global warming and make the outdoor environment better for all of us to enjoy…today and tomorrow."

Night lights sold at Target have been recalled for potential burn hazard, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) just announced.
About 260,000 Energizer Rotating Night Lights are being recalled because they can overheat and smoke, which poses a burn hazard to consumers.
The defective Energizer Rotating Night Lights were manufactured in China by Ningbo Sun-alps Industry Develop Co. Ltd, of China; imported by Energizer of St. Louis, Missouri; and sold exclusively at Target stores, nationwide, from February 2010 through July 2012. The recalled night lights sold for about $6.
To date, Energizer has received nine reports of the night lights overheating. This includes three reports of minor property damage. No injuries have been reported.
The recall involves Energizer LED rotating night lights that are white and have an LED light inside an adjustable dome on its top. The night lights measure about two inches in width by 2 ½ inches in length. The model number "NLPLROT" and date codes between 0110 (January 2010) through 0111 (January 2011) are included in this recall.
The model number can be found stamped on the side of the night light; the date code is stamped in a circle on the back of the night light. The arrow points to the month of production (for instance, "12" equals December). The number positioned on either side of the arrow represents the year (for instance, "10" equals 2010).
The firm advises consumers to immediately stop using and unplug the recalled night lights and contact Energizer for instructions on returning the night lights for a $7 coupon towards the purchase of an Energizer product. Energizer can be reached, toll-free, at 1.800.383.7323 between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Central Time (CT), Monday through Friday, or at the firm's website at www.energizer.com.
