Bring on the Brave! 15 Women Share Their Most Daring Career Moves
Turns out you don't have to search long or hard for women's stories of courage at work—especially when you have our contact list! We asked and were swamped with responses. Here's the first installment of fear-defying deeds and what our speakers and friends have learned from them. Be prepared to be inspired.
Annie Heckenberger, vice president at Red Tettemer O'Connell + Partners
My bravest act: "Fairly early in my career, I was approached with an opportunity to focus on a specialty in marketing. I bounced the idea off some seasoned professionals and every one of them cautioned me against segmenting my path—it might box me out of a bigger growth opportunity. Despite that input, I listened to my gut and took the specialized position. And I lucked out. That specialty—media—became a highly coveted area in my field."
My takeaway: "Trust your instincts. A few years later, I was presented with another opportunity to pivot into another emerging field—social media. I jumped without a second thought, having learned to take the leap if it feels right."
The secret to conquering fear is… "Moving forward despite the fear and not allowing it to paralyze you into complacency."
Jane Hyun, co-author of Flex: The New Playbook and author of Breaking the Bamboo Ceiling
My bravest act: "For me, it was leaving corporate America to start my own leadership coaching and consulting practice. Until that point I had a steady paycheck and benefits, a nice office, etc. It's amazing what we take for granted until you go out on your own! It took about five years to get into a groove with the work I do currently and I learned a lot from those early experiences."
My takeaway: "I learned patience and to surround myself with those who challenged me to keep pressing on, as well as leaning on friends who were quick with words of love and support."
The secret to conquering fear is… "Being honest with yourself about what it is you offer and knowing when to ask for help. And, I have needed a lot of help over the years."
Cathy Kangas, president and CEO of PRAI Beauty
My bravest act: "Deciding to sell my skincare line only on home shopping networks. When I began PRAI Beauty in 1999, it was considered risky to not have a brick-and- mortar store. But I believed I could reach more women and I knew in my gut that I could win them over if they heard the story of our products on television. Now PRAI Beauty is the fastest growing skincare company on home shopping networks in the US, Canada, the UK, Germany, Italy, Australia and Dubai."
My takeaway: "I learned to think creatively and to forge ahead even when others told me that it wouldn't work. I also discovered how important it is to believe in yourself and what you are selling."
The secret to conquering fear is… "To tell yourself every morning that you are going to do one thing that makes a difference in the world. Knowing that every time I sell a product, a portion of the proceeds helps animal causes motivates me to do the best job I can."
Elizabeth Thornton, professor of management practice at Babson Executive Education and author of The Objective Leader: How to Leverage the Power of Seeing Things As They Are
My bravest act: "Transforming my life and career after losing a million dollars. I had risked everything in an international fruit juice business venture and lost everything—my condo, my savings, my stock portfolio. After many months of movie marathons to avoid thinking, I finally got off the couch and began the painful process of putting my life back together and confronting how I had crashed and burned so badly."
My takeaway: "I began studying a wide range of subjects including philosophy and neuroscience, and I realized that how I framed my world was the problem—the underlying assumptions that drove my perceptions and responses to people, circumstances and events. I realized that I did not always see things clearly and as a result did not always respond objectively."
The secret to conquering fear is… "To know that fear is a thought and that you have the power to choose a better thought. The key is to change your mind about what you expect, learn to be more objective and see and accept things as they are."
Nazli Yuzak, senior global social media consultant at Dell
My bravest act: "Leaving my previous company to work at Dell. It required moving from a city I had lived in for 10 years, leaving a lot of good friends and my network behind and coming to Austin to join a very large organization. So much was at stake."
My takeaway: "Amazing things happen in your life when you are ready to let go of stability—which is in fact an illusion since things are always changing—and take bigger risks. It has been an incredible journey. After four years at Dell, I have a larger network than I've ever built, work with some of the smartest people in the industry and have a circle of great friends."
The secret to conquering fear is… "Just start somewhere and take an action! The more you stay stagnant, the more your fear grows and becomes much harder to handle."
Lynn Bardowski, aka The Million Dollar Party Girl
My bravest act: "Buying a hot pink suit. As one of the few women selling B2B custom business forms in the 80's, I had changed who I was, wearing dark, no-nonsense suits in hopes of fitting in with 'the guys.' I was super intimidated by my male competition and I was worried my clients wouldn't take a young career woman seriously. But one day I saw that pink suit. I felt like a rebel buying it. It was exhilarating! That was a defining moment in life."
My takeaway: "I learned that trying to fit in and be who everyone else wanted me to be chipped away at my self-esteem and confidence. It wasn't until I owned who I was that I felt like I was truly stepping into my power."
The secret to conquering fear is… "Letting go. Most of our fear comes from worrying about what everyone else is going to think."
Jessica Craft, founding executive director of Rock to the Future
My bravest act: "During the recession in 2010, I left my job at a prestigious investment firm to start Rock to the Future—a nonprofit organization that provides free music education to underserved youth. It was unnerving to start the project without full funding or promise of a paycheck, and we had to volunteer for the first two years to get the organization up and running."
My takeaway: "Pursuing dreams and passions may take exponentially more effort and time than a well-paid desk job. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, because I'm proud of what I do and wake up excited to work each day. I never knew what I could accomplish until I tried and now realize that most people are willing to help if they are just asked."
The secret to conquering fear is… "Realizing that if it's not a life-or-death situation, why be afraid? You'll make it through, learn something about yourself and maybe others, and be a stronger person."
Kathy Kinney, recently seen as Bunny on The Secret Life of the American Teenager
My bravest act: "Over 30 years into my career, I know that the biggest key to my success was that as frightened as I was, and terror barely covers it, I simply said yes and walked forward one tiny step at a time. For me bravery is the act of how you handle your fears every day of your life."
My takeaway: "I have learned that there is nothing I can't handle or survive. Life can be difficult and there are many things I have no control over, but I get to choose how I want to face each day. And my choice is with my sense of humor intact and the belief that I am a loving, kind, valuable and brave woman."
The secret to conquering fear is… "To make friends with it because it will always be with you."
Katrina Alcorn, author of Maxed Out: American Moms on the Brink
My bravest act: "Definitely, it is writing a book about my experience burning out at work. When Maxed Out was first published about a year ago, I kind of held my breath. I didn't know how people would react to reading a personal story about such a taboo subject. I was terrified no one would want to work with me again."
My takeaway: "The whole experience has been a huge lesson to me about authenticity—accepting your flaws and your mistakes. It's very brave to be your true self, to be vulnerable. But it's worth it. Career success feels far more satisfying when we stop pretending to be something we're not, and we're able to be our authentic selves. The response I've received since the book came out has been the exact opposite of what I was afraid of. I've also gotten many wonderful job opportunities as a result of people reading the book."
The secret to conquering fear is… "Choosing to do what you know is right, even if it feels very, very uncomfortable in the moment."
Stacy Doherty, founder of Errands Etcetera
My bravest act: "Following my dreams and turning my ideas into a thriving business. The Errands Etcetera platform is totally out of the box, and there were many naysayers. I had my own fears—what if there was no need for what I was doing?—but instead of listening to all the negative voices, I let them motivate me."
My takeaway: "Understanding the difference between naysaying and criticism was mandatory to grow. Many times when people are challenging your intentions, it's not because they are staging a personal attack—they want to have a more clear understanding of your plan."
The secret to conquering fear is… "Having a deep understanding about what you are afraid of and what might be holding you back, embracing that fear and determining which is greater—the risk or the reward."
Kate White, former editor in chief of Cosmopolitan and author of I Shouldn't Be Telling You This: How to Ask for Money, Snag the Promotion and Create the Career You Deserve
My bravest act: "Taking a job as the editor in chief of Working Woman magazine (a business magazine for women in the 1980's) when I knew absolutely nothing about the subject matter. I never expected to get the job because I was seven months pregnant at the time, but the owner seemed to love me. Proof that when you are relaxed and un-needy in an interview, you come across really well, so try to fake it. Once I accepted the job, I feared I'd made a terrible mistake and I confessed this to my husband one night just before I started. 'I know nothing about the subject matter,' I told him. He asked, 'But aren't you a working woman?' Of course, I was! At that moment I saw I could simply make the magazine about all I wanted to know for my work life—and make it scintillating as well."
My takeaway: "Being challenged not only helps you learn and grow, but it's what catapults you to the next level. If you aren't willing to stretch, you'll never make the big bucks and earn the great title. Though I was lured away from Working Woman by a fabulous offer after only a year and half, I learned so much there. Not only did the job lead to me writing successful career books, but the business strategies I discovered through the content absolutely helped me later in boosting Cosmo's circulation by 700,000 during my time there."
The secret to conquering fear is… "Remind yourself of your core competencies. Sure, a project or new job may demand things from you that you've never done before, but instead of fretting over that, focus on the related skills and experience you are bringing with you. For instance, you may be about to deliver the first speech you've ever given—in front of 100 people. Sure, you're new at it, but remind yourself of the great skills you have that apply: your of love of people, your desire to share, your knowledge of the material."
Lindsay Reilly, owner of Lindsay Tia
My bravest act: "While still in college, I opened an online store and did my first manufacture run of 105 bags. Up until then I had been making totes by hand for friends and family. After I graduated, I pushed production to 400 bags a season, telling myself I have no one else to support but myself, why not just go all in? I'm now making 500 bags a season."
My takeaway: "I have never been more grateful, broke and happy all at once! When I think about all the hard work and obstacles I have overcome—well, it's an incredible feeling to know what I accomplished by myself."
The secret to conquering fear is… "Not to run away but to dive in and enjoy the journey. If it takes you somewhere amazing, good; if it doesn't, it's a lesson to learn from."
Jumoke Dada, CEO of Signature RED
My bravest act: "Investing in real estate and starting my own business. Both required the willingness to step into unknown territory, learn something new and be resourceful. After taking real estate classes and passing the certification exam, I eventually bought property and then learned the ins and outs of home ownership and property management. Similarly, when starting my company Signature RED, I decided to take the leap of faith. I didn't have any business experience or a mentor but I committed to it and went for it."
My takeaway: "My biggest lessons with both endeavors were not to let fear or inexperience stop me from taking risks."
The secret to conquering fear is… "Understanding that it is powerless and surrendering to that which is greater than you. In short, trust God."
Christina Linnell, founder and chief idea officer of Linnell Media
My bravest act: "Clicking the 'submit' button for my Linnell Media Facebook page. I had been doing business behind the scenes for a while but when I shared that I had 'hung my shingle,' so to speak, on social media, I knew there was no turning back for me. I was all in!"
My takeaway: "I learned that I need to trust my gut. I knew that I was destined to be an entrepreneur, but I needed to trust myself and my instincts."
The secret to conquering fear is… "Just Do It! Sorry, Nike! Don't hesitate, don't hem and haw. Make up your mind and jump!"
Ali Warren, author of Where Hope Lives
My bravest act: "Volunteering to be a firefighter at the age of 16."
My takeaway: "I've learned that even in the face of what seems like insurmountable odds we all have the power inside of us to push past the fear and accomplish anything we set our sights on."
The secret to conquering fear is… "To embrace it. Embrace that the most important and exciting things in life are going to absolutely terrify you and that is all the more reason to attempt them. Fear is an incredibly powerful and useful tool if we learn how to work with it and let it fuel us."

What is EMI?
EMI is an abbreviation for "Equated Monthly Instalment" which is the amount you will pay to bank on a specific date each month till the loan is repaid in full.
The EMI comprises of the principal and interest components. These components are designed in a way that the interest component is much larger than the principal component during the initial years of your loan, while the principal component is much larger than the interest component during the later years of the loan.
You can use our EMI calculator to find out your monthly payments based on the loan amount, the rate of interest and the repayment period.
What does the term "Market Value of the property" mean?
Market value of the property is the estimated amount that is expected to be fetched on the property as per the prevailing market conditions.
In how many ways, repayment of the loan through EMI is possible?
Bank offers multiple ways for repayment of the loan through EMI as follows-
- One can issue standing instructions to his/her bank to pay the instalments through ECS (Electronic Clearing System)
- Opt for direct deduction of monthly instalments by his/her employer
- Issue post-dated cheques from his/her salary account
In how many instalments bank disburses the loan to the borrower?
Bank offers multiple ways for repayment of the loan through EMI as follows-
Once bank receives the request for disbursement, it can disburse the loan in full or in instalments, which usually do not exceed 3 in number.
For under-construction property, bank disburses the loan in instalments based on the progress of construction, as assessed by the bank.
If someone has enough funds to buy a house, is it still worthwhile to avail of a bank loan for buying a house?
It is usually beneficial to take a Housing loan as it would enable you to get tax exemptions. However, one can consult his/her income tax advisor to know benefits/disadvantages in his/her specific case.
What is a co-applicant? Who can be a co-applicant?
Co-applicant(s) is/are the co-owner(s) of the property which is being offered as collateral/security to the loan. Co-applicants to the loan are generally husband/wife, father/son, etc. All co-applicants need not be co-owners.
What are daily reducing, monthly reducing and yearly reducing balance systems of EMI?
- Annual Reducing: In this, the principal, for which one pays interest, reduces at the end of the year. Hence, one continues to pay interest on a certain portion of the principal which is actually paid back to the lender.
- Monthly Reducing: In this, the principal, for which one pays interest, reduces every month as one pays his/her EMI. This means EMI for the monthly reducing system is less than the annual reducing system.
- Daily Reducing: In this, the principal, for which you pay interest, reduces from the day one pays his/her EMI. EMI in the daily reducing system is effectively less than the monthly reducing system and the annual reducing system.
What are the different stages involved in taking a home loan?
Following 3 stages are there under home process-
- Application: To be submitted with the necessary documents.
- Loan Sanction: Approval for a specific loan amount is given based on one's repayment capability, the value of the property and requirement.
- Disbursement: This is the final stage. In this stage, home loan agreement is signed and the lending bank will issue a cheque in the favour of seller/builder. Under home construction, the disbursement will be made as per stage of construction. It takes around 5-8 days to complete the entire process from the day of submission of the documents to avail disbursement.
What is Home Loan Balance Transfer?
You can transfer your existing home loan to any bank which is offering a lower interest rate with a Balance Transfer home loan. The main reasons why customers switch their loans are relatively higher interest rates and poor service from the existing lender. When the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) reduces rates, lenders should also reduce the same but it doesn't happen in reality and even if they cut rates, this reduction usually is not be in line with what RBI did. Some of the lenders offer conversion of existing higher interest rate to a lower rate to their existing customers but the conversion rate is high. This also leads to home loan transfer from existing lender to new lender.
What are the benefits of Home Loan Balance Transfer?
- Reduced EMI: You can reduce the EMI amount on your Home Loan Balance Transfer.
- Saving for the long term: You can enjoy the savings for the other important things in life.
- Decide upon Tenure & Term: You can decide the tenure and term of EMI as per your own choice.
- Availability of Repayment Options: Customised repayment options are available that suit your needs.

I am considering adding an update to my iPhone app that allows the user to choose many new features such as the background image, where certain buttons are located, button colors, button design, certain label colors, etc. While I have a lot of ideas on where I could allow the user to change things, I wonder how much choice I should give them.
If I give them too much choice is it possible they will give me bad reviews, or is the opposite more often true?
Also, if I give them that choice, should I put that all in a single preference panel, or should I split it up somehow? (I don't like using the Settings App, so I'm not asking about that here)

Sales are plummeting, and as a small business owner, you might not have a ton of extra fluff to lean on while you wait for things to recover. The worst part is that there isn't anything you can do about it; it's just a regular economic slump, and you're stuck dealing with it…or giving in. Sometimes, there's just not a way to quickly fix your issue, especially since your business is unique in many ways, so you can't just copy another company's strategy without a significant amount of risk. However, there are some things that help almost all business owners recover, so let's take a look at what those are.
There is Always a Big Picture
Sometimes looking at the big picture is scary at best and absolutely horrifying at worst, but often, it's a good idea. Focusing on the small problems isn't a bad idea, especially since those problems are immediate and obvious, but looking at the overall picture can help you look at things that will enact lasting change and, hopefully, give you more insight on the true size of the problem you're facing.
Let's look at a quick example. There is an employee at your company that, when you look at their overall performance, you notice is making tons of mistakes when it comes to inventory. Sure, you might want to just let this employee go, and assume that will fix your problems. However, what if the problem isn't with the employee, but with the person who trained him or her? The initial reaction may be to fire the employee and you may feel like that will fix the problem, but the bigger picture shows you that it wouldn't fix everything.
Take a Hard Look at Your Employees
Generally speaking, one of the top expenses of your business is payroll, so it's important that you look at it post haste if you're having a budgeting issue. Unfortunately, sometimes this means a review of your staff so that you can be sure that everyone is doing everything they need to be doing. This will help you confirm that everyone getting paid to be there is doing their job to the best of their abilities and effectively, too. Sometimes this may mean replacing a cheaper employee with a more expensive one as well—someone who works twice as hard for 20% more of the cost is someone you definitely want on your team.
Keep the Quality Up
Even if your issue is all about the money, the answer is not to sacrifice quality—ever! If your entire problem is with a product, it make sense to handle that issue. If the product you create is too expensive to create, then it may be time to look at other venues for creating it, but not to reduce the quality. If you own a pizza shop and you're known for your fluffy crusts and large portions, you should not sacrifice those things to stay in business. When the business does come back, they will be less likely to come back to you when you do.
All in all, keep an eye on the bigger picture, make sure you evaluate your employees and never, ever sacrifice quality to save a few dollars—it's never worth it. Cut other places. Tighten your belt, and carry on.

Activism and BDS Beat 25 July 2014
I vividly recall the first time I saw Sinéad O'Connor live. She looked shy and fragile as she walked onstage. And then she began her song "Troy," whispering to us one second, screaming at us the next. It was enchanting and haunting.
That was 26 years ago. Ever since then, I've admired O'Connor as a woman of talent and courage. So I felt a bit hurt when she rejected me in a distinctly 21st century manner last month: by blocking me on Twitter.
All I had done was to ask politely that she cancel a gig in Israel.
This morning my admiration was fully restored when I read in the Irish magazine Hot Press that O'Connor had decided to withdraw from her Israel show.
"Nobody with any sanity, including myself, would have anything but sympathy for the Palestinian plight," she said. "There's not a sane person on earth who in any way sanctions what the fuck the Israeli authorities are doing."
O'Connor's interview suggests that concert promoters are offering enormous fees to musicians willing to ignore the Palestinian-led call for boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) against Israel. O'Connor was promised "100 grand" (she didn't specify the currency) to play Caesarea — a town between Tel Aviv and Haifa — in September. Normally, she would only expect one-tenth of that amount for a show.
Her decision is a timely gesture of solidarity. Caesarea (known as Qisaryia in Arabic) was conquered by Zionist forces headed by Yitzhak Rabin, a vicious military commander who later became prime minister, in 1948. Benny Morris, the Israeli historian, has written that the Palestinians of Qisaryia suffered from "outright expulsion."
Today, the Palestinians are still being terrorized by Zionist forces. Israel is bombing schools, mosques and hospitals in Gaza.
To its eternal shame, the Irish government abstained from a vote in the UN Human Rights Council calling on Israel to respect international law this week.
With a few exceptions, I have long been ashamed of Ireland's politicians. I would prefer not to share the same nationality as these lickspittles, so eager to please their masters in Brussels and Washington.
I am proud, though, to hail from the same island as Sinéad O'Connor. Her cancellation of a gig in Israel is by no means the first time that she has put principles ahead of financial considerations.
In the US, she is best known for tearing up a photograph of Pope John Paul II on the television program Saturday Night Live.
That protest undoubtedly had adverse consequences for her record sales. Yet she has been vindicated in moral terms: it has been proven that the Catholic Church's hierarchy engaged in a massive cover-up of child abuse.
My aforementioned first encounter with O'Connor was at an anti-apartheid concert in Dublin, marking Nelson Mandela's seventieth birthday.
Later in that 1988 gig, she performed a duet with Christy Moore, a balladeer with a deeply soulful voice. Unaccompanied by musical instruments, they delivered a poignant version of "Irish Ways and Irish Laws."
Their message was readily understood: the oppression that Ireland has endured gave us some insight into what the black majority in South Africa was experiencing. One verse reads: "Eight hundred years we have been down/The secret of the water sound/Has kept the spirit of a man/Above the pain descending."
A "die-in" held outside the Irish foreign ministry this week made a similar point. No matter how supine our government may be, ordinary Irish people empathize strongly with the Palestinians.
Thank you, Sinéad O'Connor, for boycotting Israel. You have given the Palestine solidarity movement a boost at a very depressing time.
And I have forgiven you for blocking me on Twitter.

Great article man, and have shared this amongst those, like myself, who are utterly outraged and devastated by the genocide currently taking place in Gaza at the hands of Israel. Well done to your good self, and to SOC too. She has been the subject of scorn, laughter and ridicule in this country but I stand fully behind her on this issue, as would many (if not most) rationally-thinking, and decent men and woman of Ireland. Its just a pity that our own Government can't find ( or simply lack) the courage to condemn whats happening in the Middle-east right now. I guess that they have too much to lose in the "political sense", and have given up on their own law of ethics and morality. Shame on them, and history will remember their abstinence from doing the right thing as humans forever!!!!!! THIS IS NOT THE IRELAND COLLINS AND PEARSE DIED FOR!!! FREE PALESTINE!!!

One day we will all come to realize that Sinead O'Connor is one of the greatest human rights activists we have, and she has sacrificed her career more times than I can count because of her principles. Given the hell she went through as a young person, and the pain that misguided public perception has caused this fragile but powerfully talented human being, I would have expected her to give up long ago. She is a true warrior, and a beacon of light showing those of conscience how to do the right thing. Buy her albums, pack her concerts, and pay this woman back a hundred times over for her sacrifice!!!!! Sinead, we love you and we honor you for all you have done for humanity throughout your life and works. Blessings be!

If you spend a lot of time Web surfing on the couch — or on the patio, or in bed, or anywhere else where there's no tabletop in front of you — you know that one of the biggest liabilities of laptop computing is a burned-out lap. In the past, I'll confess to making ample use of plump living room pillows to block the considerable heat generated by my laptop, but that's not the optimal methodology (especially since it actually made the laptop hotter — just not on my legs).
I have now reformed my ways thanks to Targus's US$50 Chill Mat for Mac. The Chill Mat, as its name implies, sits directly on your lap while your furnace of a laptop sits on top of it. The Mat weighs about 1.6 pounds and is constructed of a light piece of rigid — mesh plastic on the top (where the computer sits) and a flexible — mesh screen on the bottom (where it sits on your lap). It comes in a neutral color called lunar gray, which by itself is not appealing, but which looks nice with every Mac laptop available. Inside the Chill Mat's two layers sit two USB-powered fans that run agreeably quietly. An on/off switch lets you control the fans, so you can still make use of the Mat if you choose not to run the fans. However, there's no speed adjustment; the fans are either on or off.
If you mainly use your laptop around the house or office, you never need to detach the Chill Mat — I've found it quite convenient at home to keep the device tethered to the computer, storing them together. You can run the Chill Mat from a hub, as well, so you need not block a precious USB port to keep cool.
The Chill Mat has an angled-top design for comfortable laptop typing, and its dimensions (15.2 inches wide by 11.2 inches deep) can easily accommodate a 17-inch MacBook Pro. The Mat is just under 1.5 inches thick.
How well does the Chill Mat work? Just great. I've been using one for several weeks, and it always keeps my lap cool; more to the point, it lets me use my MacBook safely on my lap. I also found there to be little additional drain on the MacBook's battery from the Chill Mat: in my testing, battery life was reduced by fewer than 15 minutes when the Chill Mat's fans were enabled. Of course, if you're using the computer at home, you may (as I do) just run your laptop off its power supply, so there's no need to worry about battery life. The Chill Mat also works well with tabletops and other surfaces to prevent the computer's hot bottom from damaging them.
The Chill Mat for Mac is an excellent product. It does what it says it will do, quietly and efficiently. For US$50, you can have a cool, comfy lap and a lightweight, attractive platform on which to store your laptop.

The year of 2016 saw more high-profile data breaches than at any time in the history of the internet. 2017 stands to break the record. With data breaches on the rise, the results from the most recent Data Breach and Customer Loyalty Report, published by Gemalto, sheds some interesting light on subject.
According to the report, more than half of consumers surveyed (58 percent) say that they fear they'll fall victim to a data breach sometime in the coming year. A solid majority of those consumers (66 percent) also say that if and when it happens, they will refuse to do business with that company, post-breach.
Of particular interest is the perception of consumers about where the responsibility for such breaches resides. The breakdown is 70/30. Seventy percent of the responsibility lies with the company in question, and 30 percent of the responsibility resides with the consumers themselves.
The major takeaway here is that consumers increasingly have the expectation that the companies they do business with are overwhelmingly responsible for data security, and would be quick to abandon them in the event of a breach.
Even more ominous is how widespread the impact of data breaches has been in recent years. Nearly a quarter of consumers surveyed (21 percent) say that they have been the victim of a breach and have had at least some of their personal information exposed. An overwhelming majority of consumers say that businesses aren't doing enough or moving quickly enough to provide greater security.
To cite just one example, most banks still use a standard, text-based passwords for account access. Only very few have implemented any form of two-factor authentication such as thumbprint or other biometric security or image-based passwords.
This represents an enormous opportunity for business owners. If you can demonstrate that you are taking tangible, visible steps toward greater data security, you can do quite a lot to allay the concerns of your customer base.
The report is well worth reading in its entirety as it contains a number of other hidden gems and insights.

Apple's numbers have a story to tell
And the story isn't just "we're rich!"
Anybody who stuck by Apple in its underdog days should be feeling pretty smug today: after yet another record-breaking quarter, Apple now has all the money in the known universe.
Apple's profits now exceed Google's entire revenue, and the world is its oyster.
Tim Cook could commission a helicopter made of cheese, a robot army and a selection of intercontinental ballistic missiles to point at Samsung without making the tiniest dent in Apple's cash mountain, but that's not the most interesting thing about the latest financial results.
What's interesting to me is that once again, reports of Apple's doom have been wildly exaggerated.
For much of the last year, we've heard that Apple's doomed (John Gruber of Daring Fireball fame has been collecting the predictions). 2011 would be the year that everyone dumps the iPhone for other smartphone OSes. 2011 would be the year that rival tablets give the iPad a wedgie. 2011 would be the year that Apple's bubble bursts.
It hasn't burst. And it doesn't look like it's going to. Even if you hate Apple with a passion, it's worth looking at the numbers, because they're not just figures on a balance sheet. They're tea leaves, or runes, or crystal balls.
They're in the money
The numbers are extraordinary. The "disappointing" iPhone 4S drove sales of iPhones to a record high - 37 million in three months - with the 4S far and away the most popular model.
Get daily insight, inspiration and deals in your inbox
Sign up for breaking news, reviews, opinion, top tech deals, and more.
Sales are up 128%, and given that many iPhone 4 owners - me included - are hanging on for iPhone 5 before upgrading, and that Apple has barely begun to sell in huge markets such as China, 2012's numbers are going to be even bigger.
Tablets? 15.4 million iPads, up 111% on the previous year. Whoever's buying Kindle Fires, they aren't buying them instead of Apple tablets. Maybe they're buying them instead of BlackBerry Playbooks, or sheds.
Macs? Up 26%. Even the Apple TV shifted 1.4 million units. The only thing that isn't doing so well is the iPod, which Apple predicted would be replaced by the smartphone.
To do those numbers at any time is incredible. To do it in the middle of a global recession is bordering on the miraculous.
Apple's numbers are telling a story, and the story is that Steve Jobs was right: the post-PC era is here. Whether you're an Apple fan or an Android one, the chances are that more and more of your everyday computing is taking place on a post-PC device - a tablet, or a smartphone.
It's personal computing, but we're doing less of it on PCs.

The most common complaint with sourdough foods is that the more choosy of our family members don't care for a sour flavor. Did you know that sourdough does not have to be sour?
These six tips will help you ensure that your sourdough baked goods are pleasantly tangy, rather than overly sour — or perhaps not sour at all!
1. Regular Feedings
A sourdough starter (the active mother culture) contains both wild yeasts and beneficial bacteria (called lactobacilli). Regular flour feedings keep the organisms fed and in balance. But missing a feeding gives the bacteria a leg up. You see, the yeasts run out of food when the simple sugars in flour are all consumed, and they start dying off. But the bacteria still have food to eat. They eat the expired yeasts, along with the yeasts' wastes, and continue to produce lactic acid, the main sour flavor. And so the starter gets more sour.
This video shows you how a sourdough starter works! Plus, you'll learn an easy way to start your own sourdough starter and can download a free sample chapter of our Sourdough eBook.
In our Sourdough eCourse, we recommend twice daily feedings — about once every 12 hours. However, if the temperatures are very warm, the organisms go through their food more quickly. So you might consider adding a third feeding to your routine! This will help the yeasts keep the upper hand at all times. 🙂 Just make sure you feed after the starter shows signs that it has consumed the sugars from the prior feeding; this includes the production of hooch (the liquid that rises to the surface), lots of bubbles, and/or collapse of the peak.
2. Lose the Hooch
Pour off the hooch — the acidic liquid the organisms produce after consuming the simple sugars in flours. This is where the sourness from the lactobacilli mainly resides. If fed regularly, your starter may not produce much hooch.
3. Shorter Rising Times
Let your sourdough foods rise for shorter times, rather than longer. Sourness develops over time. As the wild organisms consume the simple sugars in flour, they produce acids. The acids give the characteristic sour flavor. Less time = less sour.
4. Cooler Rising Location
Let your sourdough foods rise in a cooler location. The wild organisms that work on grains to optimize nutrition and digestion really go to town at warmer temperatures. When they feast, they produce those sour acids. So, slow them down by keeping them cooler.
5. Use More Starter (What?)
Use more starter in a recipe, not less. This sounds strange, but here's why it works. More starter will work more quickly to rise and prepare the dough for digestion, resulting in less time for the dough to become sour. If adjust a recipe to add more starter, you should lessen the amount of water or liquid.
6. Use Baking Soda
Ever heard the phrase "soda sweetens"? It's true! Many sourdough recipes call for baking soda. Not only does the baking soda react with the starter to give a good rise, but it sweetens the dough or batter by neutralizing some of the acidic taste.
So, now that you know sourdough does not have to be sour… why not get started? The following recipes are great for beginners or experienced bakers alike: fluffy pancakes, waffles, english muffins, crepes, chocolate cake, spice cake, or pizza crust.
Want video tutorials, more recipes, or more hand-holding? Check out our Sourdough eCourse or the Sourdough A to Z eBook. Please let me know how I can help you!

The following is a listing of all the currently defined variable names and their types. If a PIC doesn't support some feature, the variables do not need to be defined for that feature.
- memtype (string)
- The type of memory in the PIC. This can have one of the values "eprom", "flash", or "flashe". "eprom" can be used for any eprom/OTP device. "flash" can be used for any type of electronically erasable device. "flashe" is similar to "flash" but in the programming cycle, the END_PROG command is required.
- wordsize (integer)
- The size of an instruction word in bits.
- codesize (integer)
- The number of words of program memory.
- eesize (integer)
- The number of bytes of data EEPROM. If the device doesn't have a data EEPROM, this can be set to 0 or not specified at all.
- progcount (integer)
- The maximum number of times to attempt to program a memory location before reporting an error. Defined in the programming spec.
- progmult (integer)
- The multiplier for the number of times to overprogram. Defined in the programming spec.
- progtime (integer)
- The number of microseconds in each programming attempt for one memory location. To be on the safe side, the maximum value from the datasheet should be used for flash devices.
- erasetime (integer)
- The number of microseconds that a bulk erase takes.
- configmask (integer)
- A bitmask of all valid (non-reserved) configuration bits.
- configdefault (integer)
- The default value of the configuration bits after an erase.
- configsave (integer)
- A bitmask of persistent bits in the configuration word. These bits will be saved before and restored after a chip erase. They will also not be modifiable when programming the device.
- cp_mask (integer)
- A bitmask of all the code protection bits.
- cp_all (integer)
- The value of the code protection bits when all program memory is code protected.
- cp_none (integer)
- The value of the code protection bits when no program memory is code protected.
- cpd_mask (integer)
- A bitmask of the bit(s) that enable data memory code protection.
- cpd_on (integer)
- The value of the cpd bit(s) when data code protection is enabled.
- cpd_off (integer)
- The value of the cpd bit(s) when data code protection is disabled.
- bkbug_mask (integer)
- A bitmask for the bit(s) which enable the on-chip background debugger.
- bkbug_on (integer)
- The value of the bkbug bits when the debugger is enabled.
- bkbug_off (integer)
- The value of the bkbug bits when the debugger is disabled.

Spread the cost of your pet's preventative healthcare and get peace of mind with Pet Health Club™!
Please see our latest client guidelines below
Last updated: 18th November 2021
If you are self-isolating or experiencing any symptoms please DO NOT visit the practice and reschedule or book an alternative video or telephone consultation.
The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and the British Veterinary Association, following Government announcements, have advised that farm animal veterinary surgeons are key workers.
We are working, but our services are limited to what is considered essential. In addition, each job is triaged by our staff and vets (essential or not) and a risk assessment is conducted at the time of making the appointment and on arrival of our vets at your premises. It is vitally important to both you and our staff that we observe the 2-metre ("length of a cow") social spacing while we work together.
We request your patience in these difficult times as the above draws out the usual process of making an appointment and completing a call on farm. If we do not all observe the Government's guidelines on social spacing and cutting out unnecessary travelling, our categorisation could be revoked!
We are observing Government guidelines. If staff suspect they have any symptoms of Covid-19, they will self-isolate at home. This may affect our day-to-day work and is another reason for triaging calls.
Yes, when they have been pre-ordered. Due to limited staff availability, try to phone a minimum 48-hours' ahead. You will be advised at this time on our current pick-up protocol. Ring us as early as possible to add to existing orders or if necessary while you are sitting in your vehicle at our premises.
Each case will be dealt with individually. Our farm vets may be able to give telephone or video calling advice that allows you to carry out the treatment required. The use of photographs or short video clips sent to the vets can help with this. Please ring the practice with any enquiries.
Yes. Staff will ask if anybody on your farm/premises is self-isolating, has COVID-19 symptoms etc. We must minimise risk of transmission when on farm by observing the 2-metre social distance rule. A single farm staff member to assist vets when on farm - there may be exceptional circumstances where more help is required, but our vets will risk assess this when on your premises.
Yes. We are following current APHA guidelines on TB testing during the Covid-19 outbreak. It may be necessary to leave some animals untested (between 42 and 180 days) if we are unable to maintain adequate social distancing and test them safely. Further advice is available from the practice.
We are following the Red Tractor guidelines. Please check www.redtractor.org.uk for further guidance and updates. If you have any concerns, contact the practice and/or Red Tractor for advice.
Yes, we will continue to supply vaccines for you to administer. We ask you to plan ahead, allowing wherever possible more than the standard 48 hours.
If you still have questions that weren't covered above, please contact us directly.
We are open and have resumed services with social distancing measures in place.
Our preferred payment method is via our website or by card.
Due to the ways of working we have had to adopt to keep our staff, you and your animals safe, things are taking us a bit longer, reducing the number of horses we can see in a day. Please bear with us while we continue to prioritise appointments and operations, and offer video or telephone consults for some cases.
Can my horse receive it's vaccinations?
Yes. Please contact the practice to arrange an appointment and instructions on how we will keep you and our staff safe to enable us to carry out this treatment for your pet.
Can my horse's routine dental care be carried out?
Yes – but this will require risk assessment and due to the need to maintain safe working practises SEDATION will be mandatory (if required).
Can mares be scanned to see if they're in foal?
Yes – we will risk assess this – but generally we are now able to perform fertility work, AI and other services.
Can my horse get COVID-19?
There is currently no evidence that a horse or pony, can suffer from or transmit COVID-19. The World Health Organisation continues to monitor the latest research on this and other COVID-19 topics.
Can I get my horse's feet trimmed or shoed?
The Farriers Registration Council confirmed on Tuesday 24 March that its farriers can continue to provide essential services to equines, using their judgement as to matters of priority and/or urgency, with appropriate social distancing, hand washing and equipment cleaning. Many are using a traffic light system for assessing essential care. Routine shoeing should be delayed for three weeks. Please check with your vet if special remedial shoes are fitted, as it may be necessary to reshoe within the current period. Please note this position is subject to change.
Can I get repeat prescriptions?
Yes. It would be required normally that an animal is seen every six months to allow us to write the prescription for you. As this would not be deemed essential contact, the prescription is likely to be issued subsequent to a video or a phone call.
Can I be there to say goodbye, if my horse needs to be put to sleep?
Yes. You can be close to your horse whilst adhering to government advise on social distancing and hand washing to keep our vets safe.
Will my horse insurance be affected if my horse can't get their routine care?
Insurance companies are reviewing their policies regarding routine care to reflect the current period and reasonable adjustments. Leading equine insurers have assured the British Equine Veterinary Association that policies will continue to be honoured in circumstances such as delays in annual boosters being administered or treatment plans not being completed prior to 12 months cover ending, directly resulting from COVID-19 restrictions. Please check directly with your insurance company for specifics.

Colors vary. Please contact gallery for availability: 508-349-9451; firstname.lastname@example.com
Paul's work has evolved over the years to become an expression of all his passions, not just his love of the medium of wood. He began more than 20 years ago as a traditional wood craftsman, making jewelry boxes and furniture. His interests branched out to explore the textural possibilities of weed, then to color, and on to the addition of other materials until his work became truly mixed-media.
Paul's most recent work involves combining metal with wood. An avid antique tin collector, he has used a variety of animal and insect forms as a way to expand his palette to include old tins, which are outstanding for their color and pattern. The tins also allow him the opportunity to explore the possibility of introducing words in to the visual realm of art. He likes to hint at meaning or humor using text he extracts from his tins.

MaxSumo – shows how to plan, monitor and evaluate mobility projects
With MaxSumo you can effectively plan, monitor and evaluate Mobility Management projects. It provides standardised guidance during all steps of your project, e.g. when setting targets, defining target groups, selecting services and mobility options. MaxSumo can be used for single measures as well as for combined measures.
Using MaxSumo, you break down the complex process of behavioural change into smaller steps that can be monitored and evaluated successively. This is comparable to using the staircase when going down instead of jumping from the highest floor. By going in small, successive steps, possible deviations can be corrected at an early stage.
These steps are presented in MaxSumo as successive assessment levels. For each level you need to decide your target and how to measure these. You might decide to skip some steps, as in some projects it is neither possible nor necessary to monitor all levels.
How to start
- Download and read the MaxSumo guide: EN, DE, ES, FR, NL, PL, PT, SE
- Go straight to MaxEva, which is MaxSumo on the web. You can start entering data and look at other projects that used MaxSumo.

They did a good job and were able to get the DCS parts, which at the time were hard to find. had some renovations done to my DSC grill when i moved in to my new house, including the conversion from LP to natural gas.
Samuel G.
They explained the process and answered all my questions over the phone. They were able to come out in january on one of the few days of nice weather. The technicians completed the work and explained the results. They stayed around and witnessed the test run. In addition, about a week later, my wife thought she smelled a strong odor of gas near the deck. She use the "soapy water bubble" test to find the leak at the valve. We shut off the gas and called the company. They came right out the next day and repaired the valve connection. Thank guys.
William B.

The Only Danger To Humanity Is Man Himself
Thursday, January 1st, 2015 @ 23:50
Thursday, January 1st, 2015 @ 23:50
My dearly beloved daughter, the person who perseveres in prayer will become closer to Me.
With so much confusion in the world and amongst My Church on earth, the challenge for humanity is to be able to differentiate between right and wrong in the Eyes of God. But, for many Christians, they will be drawn away from Me by a new global form of evangelisation, which will focus exclusively on politics. Instead of being encouraged to remain loyal to Me and trusting in all that I Am, you will be pulled away from Me. You must never confuse My Word with the aspirations of a secular world. I have always made it clear to humanity, through My Father's Book, of the dangers in doing so. A secular world serves only its own needs and men of power, ambition and selfish aspirations create the rules, which govern it.
So much misinformation has been spread in relation to the environment, when only God can dictate how the earth behaves. Man may harm and damage the earth but he can never destroy it, for all these things are in the Hands of God. A lack of trust in God means that man believes he has control over the universe. The foolish man thinks that his actions can change God's Laws. The wise man knows that God is All Powerful and as long as He is revered, and His Laws adhered to, then man's survival will be secured. The survival of the earth has nothing to do with mortal man. Only God has the power to control the air that you breathe; the water you drink and the ability to sustain life. The only danger to humanity is man himself.
Man will fool others in the interests of self-gain. He will lie if it is to his advantage and when it suits him. Trust is easily broken and now you are living in an era where you must know that the earth will remain as it was before and that any climate upheaval is by the Hand of God. Man's intervention in such a divine creation will only be permitted if it is according to the Will of God.
My Church is My Body. All those who believe in Me are part of My Body. Those who are part of Me will follow My Teachings. Those who say they lead My followers must abide by the Word of God. Their role is to defend the Truth – not deviate from it.
If you are being pulled away from Me, and if My Word is being rejected by the world, then the duty of My sacred servants is to remind the world of what is right and what is wrong. When they remove themselves from matters, which concern the soul in exchange for matters, which amount to socialism, then know that this is a subtle and cunning deception. It also betrays all trust in Me.
Your Jesus

Abu Dhabi will welcome the best swimmers in the globe for a six-day show between December 16 to 21 for the 15th edition of the FINA World Swimming Championships, according to a statement by the Abu Dhabi Sports Council. The competition will take place in the iconic Etihad Arena, which for the occasion will be transformed into a 25m temporary pool.
Further, an Aquatics Festival will now take place in parallel with the FINA World Swimming Championships (25m) which will feature three additional FINA disciplines (diving, high diving and open water). Yas Island will host the FINA World Swimming Championships (25m) as well as the FINA High Diving Qualifier, the ultimate leg of the FINA/CNSG Marathon Swim World Series 2021, a brand new Open Water Swimming Mixed Relay and a FINA Diving Team Exhibition.
The FINA High Diving event will serve as the final qualifying event for the 19th FINA World Championships, scheduled to take place in Fukuoka (JPN) in May 2022. The FINA Diving Team Exhibition, meanwhile, will feature a Mixed Team event, with those alternating dives from 3m springboard and 10m platform.
The final leg of the annual circuit of the FINA/CNSG Marathon Swim World Series will see competitors complete a 10km race, while an innovative Mixed Relay event will be staged for the first time ever. In the Mixed Relay, each team's four competitors (two male and two female) will be challenged with completing a 1500m swim for a total of 6km.
With the new competitions added to what was already an action-packed swimming schedule, the event will represent a true aquatics celebration right in the heart of Yas Island. The United Arab Emirates will play host to the prestigious short-course showcase for the second time, after a successful edition in 2010 in Dubai, while Hangzhou (CHN) and Windsor (CAN) hosted the two previous editions in 2018 and 2016 respectively.
