The Big Networking Event
So you've invested oodles of money and time preparing, attending, meeting and cultivating relationships at a networking event like the eWomenNetwork International Conference and Business Expo. You say your good-byes. You get home feeling full and satisfied that your experience was everything you hoped for and more. Now what?
Follow Up! Follow Up! Follow Up!
This next part is the 2nd most important part of your investment. Successful networking is all about the follow-up, which should start right after your event.
Here are some tips on what you should do immediately following your event:
1. Send an invitation on LinkedIN with a personal note. Don't just invite everyone you met to connect with you on LinkedIN and call it a day.
2. Send an "SS" (Short & Sweet) email to each person saying how nice it was to meet them at the conference, a personal comment you remember like, "Hope your daughter's soccer game goes well," and then suggest a day/time in the near future for you to get together for coffee. Simple, sweet, personal.
3. Organize yourself with a reminder that will pop up in your calendar for you to follow up with each person.
4. Follow each person on their social media platforms.
5. Social media, like Facebook, will tell you what your contact is up to, when they have a birthday and other celebrations that can present you with a good reason for a follow-up.
6. The Power of 3's. Ken Kragen, the mastermind producer behind "We Are the World" and "Hands Across America" and Manager to Lionel Richie, Kenny Rogers, Olivia Newton John, and the Bee Gees just to name a few, spoke at the eWomenNetwork conference on "The Power of 3's." He says to create notoriety, you need to do 3 things together. For example, 1. Send an email 2. Send a handwritten note and 3. Make a phone call.
7. Give First. This is one of the core principles that Founder & CEO of eWomenNetwork, Sandra Yancey, lives by at her company. She says networking is all about creating relationships, and a healthy relationship is about giving first and expecting nothing in return. She says it's all about "lust" building, not "list building."

Both Sides Admit Alex Beccue Shot Joshua Smith
Published on June 18 2019 11:26 am
Last Updated on June 18 2019 12:48 pm
Written by Greg Sapp
There's no argument; Alex Beccue shot Joshua Smith. The circumstances behind the shooting are what will be decided by a Fayette County jury in determining Beccue's future.
Beccue is charged with first degree murder in Smith's shooting death on August 11, 2017. He also faces lesser charges of possessing a stolen vehicle and being a felon in possession of a weapon.
Fayette County State's Attorney Josh Morrison said in opening statements Tuesday morning that Beccue's shooting of Smith was "absolutely unnecessary and intentional." Morrison also said Beccue had taken a car, a change of clothes, a gun and gloves with him to Chelsea Beasley's house in Ramsey the night Smith was shot. Morrison alleged that Beccue washed the clothes he was wearing in the river and then put on the other clothes he'd taken with him and then threw the gun into the river. Morrison also alleged that Beccue gave differing versions as to the circumstances surrounding the shooting.
Defense attorney Ed Deters said, "this is not a whodunit", acknowledging that Beccue shot Smith. Deters also stipulated that Beccue was using meth at the time, had not slept much in the couple of days leading up to the shooting because of his meth use, but also alleged that Beasley was a meth dealer and was selling to Beccue and Smith and using meth with both of them for a period of time.
Deters contended that his client was acting "weird" about that time and alleged that Smith told Beasley that "if Alex keeps acting weird, he had something for him." That something, Deters said, was a bag containing a gun, zip ties, and bullets. Deters showed the jury a photo of a gun clip found by or beneath Smith after he was shot, intimating that Smith was loading his gun at the time of the shooting and to Beccue...not thinking logically, not clear-headed, not sober...he thought "it was him or me" and shot Smith.
Judge Don Sheafor told the jury that the trial is expected to last into next week.

|...Dare not speak to me that way again... My work is humanity's greatest triumph... Depraved? Ha! ...Show them the meaning of genius! Come, my children, defend me! Come, my Feral Ones!
— Izuka
Unforgivable Sin (Japanese: 許されざる罪 Unforgivable Sin) is the fifth chapter of part 4 of Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. In this chapter, Tibarn and his army finally strike down Izuka, the insane creator of the Feral Ones.
- Main article: Unforgivable Sin/Script
- See also: Unforgivable Sin/Conversations
As Tibarn's army continues to travel to the Tower of Guidance, they take a short break in the woods. At night, when most are sleeping, he speaks with Elincia about Almedha and Pelleas (the latter only if he was spared). Tibarn remarks that he initially doubted that Almedha was really Dheginsea's daughter, but came to believe it after seeing how fierce she truly was. Elincia, on the other hand, noticed how similar she and Kurthnaga looked and acted. Tibarn then notes that laguz mainly identify others through scent, as well as that Almedha lacked a distinct beorc or laguz scent. Elincia then remarks that Almedha lost her powers when she became pregnant with Pelleas. Tibarn recounts an old song telling how, if a laguz and a beorc produced a child, the laguz parent would be punished, becoming something that was neither laguz nor beorc. Suddenly, Count Bastian returns to Elincia from his long disappearance. Using flowery language, he then asks Tibarn, Elincia, and Reyson to speak with him in private. Elincia is then led to Geoffrey, Volke, and a mysterious hooded man. Volke announces that "their captive" has disappeared, and Bastian pays him to recapture him. Bastian then asks Reyson and Tibarn to instead meet after they recover the escaped captive. He then takes the hooded man away, leading Elincia and Lucia to wonder about the man's identity.
The next morning, Geoffrey begins his hunt for the escapee, asking Tibarn and Ranulf to assist him. When Elincia and Lucia see him up so early, he bolts away, and the two follow him. When they catch up to the force, they find a horde of Feral Ones being controlled by a strange man; Bastian clarifies that this man is Izuka, their escapee, and that he is the creator of the process of turning laguz into Feral Ones. Tibarn is infuriated by Izuka and threatens his life, while Izuka rebuffs him and calls the Feral Ones "humanity's greatest triumph." Elincia then orders the army to strike him down.
After Izuka dies, his "creations" soon follow. With him out of the way, Reyson sings a galdr for the repose of the laguz that were harmed by Izuka's practices. Jorge then calls Bastian, alerting him that the hooded man is out of control, and Daniel is unable to hold him down. As Bastian and the others go to the hooded man, he is revealed to be none other than Duke Renning, Elincia's uncle, albeit with his mind broken by the Feral One drugs. Away from Renning, Bastian reveals that Renning survived Daein's attempts on his life, and, when Ashnard heard of this, he was kidnapped and fed the drug, turning into Bertram, one of the Four Riders. After Betram's defeat in the previous war, Bastian took him to his castle, and hired Volke to investigate into a cure for him. Volke and Bastian then later captured Izuka and interrogated him, where he unsuccessfully attempted to barter his freedom by offering to create an antidote. When Bastian is done speaking, Elincia asks Reyson to sing the galdr of rebirth to Renning to heal his mind. Confident in his ability, boosted further by the order granted by Ashera, Reyson then sings the galdr, returning Renning's sanity. Tibarn and Reyson then speak together, musing how they find it more difficult to see Ashera as a villain when her power aided in healing Renning.
Beginning log
Tibarn's group passes quickly through Salmo, drawing steadily closer to the imperial capital. The hardships of the journey lead the group to overcome their racial differences, and form bonds of friendship and trust. However, Almedha, the queen mother of Daein, remains alone and aloof, lost in thoughts of her own. Her son, Pelleas, also seems to guard some secret thought, tucked deep within his heart.

Please fill out all information fields so that we may assist you better. An email confirmation will be sent by Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. after receiving this agreement.If you do not hear back or get an e-mail from us within 24 hours please call us.
This agreement is between Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. and the customer digitally signing below and purchasing the rental of satellite equipment via discoverak.com hereby referred to as RENTER. This agreement is valid until the rented satellite phone and equipment is returned to Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. and all agreed upon fees have been paid in full.
The following standard equipment has been or will be provided to the customer as part of this Agreement. Proof of delivery and return will be provided by both parties through execution of a delivery receipt or signed delivery via common courier. If additional equipment / accessories are provided and/or selected by the customer, customer will pay additional rental charges.
Satellite Phone with Battery
Pelican 1200 Case
AC Charger
User Guide
Leather Case
(Stipulated equipment value of Standard Equipment is $1,500 for the 9555 or the Iridium Extreme)
The rental period begins on the date that PLANET EARTH ADVENTURES, LLC. delivers the satellite equipment to the RENTER and continues for the amount of time the RENTER purchases at the time the order is placed. The rental period may not be shortened or extended. If rented equipment is not returned by the end of the rental period Late Fees will be added to the final rental bill as described below.
A reserve against the Customer's credit card will be made on, or before the Effective Rental Date. Currently Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. charges $1000.00 for the Iridium 9575 or 9555 as a security reserve. This reserve will be maintained by Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. and will be applied against any default of Customer in payment of rent or for damage or loss of the Equipment or other payment due Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. which is chargeable to the Customer. If the customer believes they may be late in returning the equipment, they must notify Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. prior to the expiration of the contracted rental period, or the phone's airtime may be suspended (which will render the phone inoperable). If the customer is more than one week late, the security reserve will be captured until the equipment is returned. When the equipment has been returned, the security reserve will be credited back to the customer minus all charges that have been incurred including any late fees and costs of the additional week(s) that rental was out. Upon termination of this Agreement, and after final airtime and other charges are paid in full, the remainder of the reserve will be released from the credit card.
Airtime charges for rental periods of one month or less will be billed at the end of the rental period at the our current published rate for the equipment being rented and will be due immediately to Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. Airtime charges for rental periods of more than one month may be collected on a monthly basis or at the end of the rental period and will be due immediately once the airtime bill is generated. If the RENTER prepays for any airtime at the inception of the rental period then only the airtime exceeding the prepaid amount will be billed. Unused prepaid airtime is not refundable. POSTPAID AIRTIME unless otherwise specified. Our Iridium satellite phone rentals automatically come with postpaid airtime (at our standard rental rate of $1.79/minute). The rate per minute applies to all outgoing calls worldwide - voice & data from the Iridium phone to any terrestrial destination throughout the world *(also to another Iridium phone). There are no additional charges or roaming charges (excluding taxes).
CURRENT IRIDIUM POSTPAID AIRTIME RATE: $1.79/minute
Due to the technical nature of data setups and the inherent sophistication of data transmission through a variety of operating systems, Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. makes no representation as to the success of data calls through the Iridium Satellite Network. Customer agrees that all data call attempts regardless of ultimate successful transmission and termination will be paid for and no credits will be given in the event of dispute of this nature. Along with potential incorrect use (i.e.: next to a building/obstruction), the Iridium system (a low earth orbiting satellite constellation) has inherent flaws and anomalies that can create dropped calls of either voice or data nature. Dropped calls will not be credited. Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. can provide data setup technical support beyond the normal provided setup instructions at an additional charge. Please consult with a sales representative for more details.
Planet Earth Adventures, LLC cannot guarantee that the RENTER is satisfied with the quality of service. Planet Earth Adventures, LLC is obligated to deliver working satellite equipment to the RENTER by the date that the RENTER has indicated they need the satellite equipment. If the RENTER feels they have a non-working satellite phone or terminal they may be eligible for a refund. In such a case the RENTER must report the defect to Planet Earth Adventures, LLC and return the satellite equipment within 48 hours of receiving it. Planet Earth Adventures, LLC will test the equipment that the customer has claimed to be defective and if it found to be defective the renter will not be responsible for the rental fees. If the equipment is found to be in working condition or if the above procedure is not followed the RENTER will still be obligated to pay for all rental charges. Planet Earth Adventures, LLC strongly advises that the RENTER make arrangements to receive the equipment far enough in advance of their trip that they would have sufficient time to test the equipment before their departure. Planet Earth Adventures, LLC makes every effort to work with customers to help them understand how to use their satellite phone or terminal and troubleshoot any apparent problems prior to the RENTER's departure.
All rented equipment must be returned to Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. in the same condition in which it was shipped. If any of the rented equipment is broken, damaged, stolen, lost or missing the RENTER is responsible for paying Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. for a replacement or repair fee equal to the current retail price of the damaged or missing equipment. If the RENTER purchases rental insurance at the time of the inital order then their equipment can be returned in a damaged or broken condition with out penalty, but ALL equipment rented must still be returned. Rental insurance does not cover loss or theft. The RENTER understands that he or she is responsible for the full replacement cost of the equipment should it not be returned. If returned equipment appears broken due to misuse, a test and repair charge of up to $350.00 may be charged for inspection, testing and minor repairs required to return the Equipment to service. This charge will be payable at the end of this Agreement. If the phone can not be repaired, the customer will be notified and will be responsible for the designated replacement cost of the phone.
Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. allows a three day grace after the end of the rental period before applying late fees. The RENTER is obligated to pay a late fee of $20 per day for every day the satellite equipment is not returned after the rental period and the three day grace period. Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. will not charge a cancellation fee if the RENTER cancels the order more than 4 business days prior to the scheduled delivery of the equipment. If the RENTER cancels within 3 business days of the scheduled delivery of the order, Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. will apply a cancellation fee to the order equal to 50% of the order total.

David Atria
A composer, musician, and writer, Belgium born David Atria created an online journal of art and literature called "in situ!" with Nunzio d'Annibale and Raphael Denys in Paris in 2002. This journal publishes interviews with important writers and musicians such as: Philippe Sollers, Jordi Savall, Fabio Biondi, Etienne Klein, Stéphane Zagdanski, etc. David also published reviews from classical albums in the Magazine Littéraire in Paris and later started composing music for a Parisian's Musical Firm making mostly advertising and continued to work on his own compositions getting inspired by the great metropolis of France. In 2007, Fabio Biondi performed his first sonata for violin at a concert in Norway. In 2010, David collaborated with a quartet from the National Orchestra of Bordeaux and teamed up with violinist Anne-Sylvie Primo who leads the Ensemble Darius and continued performing many of his repertoire and compositions. In 2012, David started creating Continuum Presence, performance dance/music/video in collaboration with videographers and the artist Olivier Pé, as the co-director. During the same year, he accomplished two books of French Poetry, and another book based on his own experience with musical compositions titled "How I came back to where I was." This book opens our eyes to his perspective through the study and history of music by analyzing great composers, and deepens the artist's spiritual lineage through the present and future course. David's released album Continuum Presence gathers the best compositions created for the Ensemble David Atria. His new album, Via Tertia was digital released in 2015. David also published on SoundCloud two albums of acoustic-electronic music called : Music for Imaginary Scenes I & II. The fifth disc « Exogénèse », which will consist of pieces for chamber ensemble, is in preparation for the Parnassie label (2016).

Batch Import
Batch import provides signatory firms that have their own internal databases an easy, transparent and reliable way to export project data from the database to a CSV or XLS format, and then import it into the AIA 2030 DDx directly. The feature is available to firm administrators, and can be accessed on the <My Account screen, the Batch Import Logs section.
The following is an excerpt from the Batch Import Guide, which goes step by step through the Batch Import process.
The Basics: A step-by-step on How to Use
Step1: Firm administrator logs into the AIA 2030 DDx
The process begins when the signatory firm administrator logs in to the DDx. To have access to this feature the user must have 'administrator' status.
Step 2: Go to > My Account
Select "> My Account", which is on the upper right of the screen. On > My Account, go to section 7 - Import Portfolio Logs and select "< Batch Import".
Step 3: Select Reporting Year
Select the "Reporting Year" that will be associated with the imported projects from the drop down list. By default, the current reporting year will be displayed.
Note: If you would like to import projects for two different reporting years, they will need to be in separate CSV/XLS files.
Step 4: Choose File
Now you are ready to select your import file. Select the "Choose File" button launches a browser so that you can locate and select the file.
Note: If there are questions about what fields can be imported, you can either download the CSV or XLS template to see or additional information on the input fields and input options per field that will be recognized by the DDx in the Batch Import Guide.
Step 5: Validate Data
Once you have chosen file, you can select "Validate Data" to run the Error and Warning verification checks. For a list of the error and warning checks that are run, see the Batch Import Guide.
Step 6: Review Validation Report
When validation is completed, a validation report is displayed. The main components are the summary table at the top, followed by the Errors table and Warnings table. For each error and warning identified, the row number on the CSV/XLS is listed, as well as the column name, and a message providing guidance on what the issue is and how it can be addressed.
REMEMBER - Errors need to be addressed! Warnings can either be addressed or ignored. Warnings are identified for your benefit.
Step 7: Decide how warnings are handled
If you have warnings included on the validation report, you can use to address them by updating the CSV/XLS, and then doing the validation process again. Another option, if you have no errors, is to ignore the warnings and complete the import process. If pursuing the latter, you'll need to select the checkbox "Ignore Warnings Identified".
Step 8: Import Data
As displayed in the figure in Step 7, when there are no errors identified in the validate date process, and there are either no warnings identified or the checkbox is selected to ignore them, then the "Import Data" button turns green and is active. Selecting the button launches the final import.
Step 9: Review Summary Table
When the import is complete, a summary table appears. The summary table identifies the total number of projects imported, as well as the number for each project category type. In addition, it provides feedback on the number of rows that were inserted (new project) or the number of rows updated (existing project).
Step 10: You're Done!

We're In This Together/
You may already know that The Art of Saving Humanity is a one-woman-run grassroots organization that collects used art supplies from the community and redistributes them to locally resettled refugees, but did you know that's only a small part of what goes on?
In between art supply solicitations, collections and distributions, between art therapy workshops, classes and exhibitions, between social media promotions and articles, I am busy meeting in-person with refugee artists to pursue event venue opportunities, design websites and business cards, assist with filling out artist residency applications, and help with grant proposal writing.
This is not a one-sided operation, however. There isn't an artist participating in this program who accepts help without giving back in some big way. Despite my eager willingness to give my all, I rarely get far without being inundated with goodwill, friendly gestures and gifts of meals and handmade crafts. In return for knitting supplies, I've received a bushel of freshly harvested beans; for weaving supplies, a brightly woven basket; for websites, the payment seems to always be hot, home-cooked, amazing meals. Despite my insistence that the artists should receive 100% of any sales proceeds, the topic always comes up that they would rather I take a commission for my troubles. I haven't budged on that last point, but I can see I'll need to continue to evolve this business model, as I don't ever want to make anyone feel like a charity case. These are brilliant, talented, motivated creative thinkers, survivors, and entrepreneurial spirits, and I admire them all so greatly.
We are equals, navigating this path of second chances and artistic self-sustainability together - and in one of the costliest, most competitive art scenes around. Our progress is slow, but relentless and filled with hope. We've become family and confidantes, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I went into this project hoping to give of myself, in a selfish way, so that I could feel I was contributing to humanity in some small sense. So that I could feel good about myself, really. It has evolved into something so much richer and more meaningful. I've gained a global community of incredibly diverse, like-minded souls - artists, donors, partners, and volunteers alike.
In short, I set out like Don Quixote on a misguided mission to save humanity. To my surprise, humanity has been saving me, in a time when I never would have imagined that was possible.

YIA art fair Brussels
YIA Art Fair – Brussels
Pleasurable, interesting, and most of all affordable. The 'Young International Artists – YIA' art fair held in Paris, Maastricht, and Brussels should not be missed by anyone who is on the lookout for new talents and somewhat affordable art!
Held at Le Square Brussels Meeting Center (Mont de Arts), the location of the venue is breathtaking and offers the most amazing overview of the city.
With 45 international galleries and 300 young artists present, the choices are plenty.
The ones I truly enjoyed were Dirk Salz, Gustavo Diaz Sosa, and Jose Luis Puche at Victor Lope Arte Contemporaneo Larissa Sansour at Montoro12 Contemporary Art gallery Omar Saadoune at Blanc Art Guillaume Castel at Galerie Ariane Thomas Henriot at Galerie Celine Moine and Olivier Truyman's photography!
Do take the time to visit this fair, and I literally mean take some time, because you will probably want to walk around that specific area of Brussels, sit on the steps overlooking the city, stroll along the delightful flower park, and have a delicious bite at the Kwint just next door to the fair.

Regular readers will know that I am no fan of the Tories, Liberal Democrats or the Coalition.
However, like many people, I am painfully aware that the last Labour Government did make many mistakes during their thirteen years in power and there are many things that they failed to do as well.
I do believe that Labour did become health and safety-obssessed. In many areas of our everyday lives, rules were enforced at the expense of common sense.The regulations that are necessary in 'hazardous' jobs have been over-zealously applied to all other professions too and this is clearly wrong.
This was particularly the case in education. I recall hearing a case where a teacher was not able to put a plaster on a five-year old's knee without calling another member of staff into the room to act as a witness.
The emergence of the compensation culture in the UK has had a highly detrimental effect on children's development.
We have seen a big drop in school trips and other extra-curricular activities, as teachers are too frightened to take children anywhere in case there are accidents and for fear that they will be liable to pay compensation.
And adults are now frequently unwilling to take responsibility for children in other pursuits and even in simply transporting children to and from their activities.
Lord Young's review of the current health and safety legislation is therefore, a welcome step.
Of course today we live in a world where awareness of child abuse has made any adult a potential offender.
But a situation where a teacher is not allowed to physically restrain an unruly child in the classroom for fear of being labelled a paedophile is clearly unacceptable.
Therefore I also applaud the Coalition's pledge to abolish the 'no touching' rule in schools.
Labour did get it wrong on this issue and I hope that the new guidlines will allow common sense to prevail.

If you have a conversation about forward-thinking construction, you'll probably talk about sustainability. As we build new homes, new businesses, and the structure of a new future in the United States, we want to make sure it's going to last, and contribute to the continuing health of the environment. This is incredibly admirable and important, of course. The growth of sustainable building has seen the slow of environmental destruction, and preserved biological life around the globe. This post is not to undermine the great responsibility to progress and meet the growing needs of our society, while making sure we don't compromise the opportunities of health and well-being of future generations. But as sustainable design becomes standard in the construction industry, it often overshadows the importance of and focus on resilience. If we really want to prepare for the future, we need to take advantage of the resilient power of home batteries.
What is Resilience?
Resilience is toughness. The ability to recover quickly after taking a hit. When it comes to energy, resilience means the capacity of a power source to sustain a disaster, on a large or small scale. Resilience means that you are protected from the unexpected blackouts that result from the increasingly unruly weather. It means you don't have to worry about losing heat when it's freezing, or air conditioning when the heat is unbearable. Resilient power is essential and life-sustaining, and key for preparing new homes and businesses for what the future has in store.
The power grid, as it stands, is pretty vulnerable. Weather related events cause about 70% of all power outages, including the weight of ice storms, heavy winds, and lightning strikes. Severe weather can hit anytime, anywhere, and climate experts have predicted that the unpredictable nature of nature will continue, with precipitation levels fluctuating greatly over the next decade and beyond. This isn't great news for the grid.
Natural disasters pose a direct threat to electrical lines, but the power demanded by homes and businesses during severe weather put heavy strain on the grid itself. The high demand of electricity to power air conditioning during heat waves, for example, has overloaded the grid and caused widespread shortages, especially in the last few decades as homes depend more and more on high levels of electricity. This is where the Catch-22 comes into light: the more we rely on electricity, the greater strain we put on the grid, the higher likelihood of grid failure. But weather, and the growing need for power, aren't the only threats staring down the utility companies.
In Ted Koppel's recently released book, Lights Out, he details the possibility and likelihood of a cyber attack on the power grid. Though utility companies work to protect the grid from outside influence, it's certainly not impenetrable. While doing research for his book, Ted Koppel caught mention of power grid vulnerability from various government officials, and reports that even the President himself included power grid failure when speaking about cybersecurity.
Speculation about power grid vulnerability was made tangible, however, by Felix Lindner, a German IT security guru who conducted a simulation of power grid infiltration in 2013. Germany's fortunate it was only a simulation. Lindner's experimental probing gained access to Ettlingen's control room, and could have "switched off everything: power, water and gas" for a town of 40,000 people in southern Germany. The simulation gave new reality to the sensitivity of the power infrastructure, and the reality of its vulnerabilities.
Growing demand, unforeseen disaster, and even attack could render the electrical grid useless at any point. Thinking about the potentially devastating effects of a long-term power outage makes it crystal clear why resilience should be a top priority.
How do we secure resilient power?
The key to crafting resilient design stems from anticipating vulnerabilities, and making sure each home, or business, is prepared. Most of the time, being prepared means simply investing in an off-grid power source, and a way to store the energy you generate.
Finding a power source independent from your power company:
You can tap into other renewable energy sources (like wind or water, for example) but solar panels are attractive because of their long life and minimal maintenance required. Once installed, solar panels usually last over 25 years, generating electricity directly from sunlight. Awesome, right? And completely off-grid.
Most households install photovoltaic solar panels on the roof of their house, where nothing can block them from the sun. When the sun hits the panel, cells made up of silicon semiconductors collect the energy, creating an electrical direct current. This direct current, when passed through an inverter, is converted into an alternating current, which is what your home uses. Generating electricity from solar panels provides you with a reliable, resilient energy source that isn't vulnerable to high demand or cyber attack. It is, however, intermittent. Meaning, the sun does go down. This is where energy storage comes in.
In order to truly break ties from the power grid, you need a way to store the electricity your solar panels generate during the day, so you can use it at night. Home batteries do just that. A home battery is like a power reservoir. Water reservoirs continuously provide water to overcome the intermittency of natural water flows. Home batteries ensure continuous power to an off-grid home, overcoming the intermittency of natural solar flows. With a home battery, your house can have off-grid energy, even when the sun isn't shining.
Most home batteries on the market today are wall-mounted, indoor or outdoor systems with quiet, unobtrusive operation. Unlike gas-powered generators, they don't need to be moved into place for operation, or refueled. With solar home batteries, there are no noxious fumes or obnoxious noise. You won't even notice it's there… until disaster strikes, and you're free from the stress of grid failure.
The combination of solar panels and home batteries provide households with the essential resources of resilient power. As builders start projects with the future of energy in mind, resilient power can be built right into any new home with just these two easy steps. The solution is pretty simple.
The Cost of Resilience
Some customers are intimidated by the up-front cost of installing solar power systems and home battery storage. We've got good news there. A lot of good news. Because policy-makers are putting increasing value on renewable energy initiatives, there are tax credits available for new solar installations. Individual states have individual programs for customers generating their own power, like California's Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP), that can also help offset costs.
It's also really important to consider the cost of not having a resilience option. For businesses, these costs are easily seen and quantified, like lost/spoiled inventory, and lost revenue from a closed facility. In residential cases, things get personal. Not only could you lose a fridge full of food and the ability to heat and cool your home, many people need electricity to sustain communication and working remotely. Others rely on electricity to power life-sustaining medical equipment. There's a myriad of important reasons to make resilience a priority both for businesses and households.
Sustainability and Resilience Together
The case for sustainability is already strong, and getting stronger. Growing environmental concerns have spurred government incentives, making sustainable design more financially viable. Consumers are also demanding more intentional, sustainable planning in housing projects, driving the sustainable building market forward. This is really good stuff. But as we create more building designs with the future in mind, it's important to keep resilience in mind too.
Preparing for the future means thinking about protecting new, environmentally sustainable projects from the threat of unexpected disaster, and the cost of unreliable power. Homes that don't have a way to deal with the growing natural and unnatural threats on grid-connected power are setting themselves up for failure. Power failure. In 2012, hurricane Sandy showed the country the devastating effects of prolonged power outages. Exposure to extreme hot or cold temperatures, food poisoning, contaminated water, and a shortage of life-essential supplies were just the beginning of the difficulties faced by those without resilient power. The blackout aftermath of this disaster cost the east coast both millions of dollars, and human lives. These horrible results, which added to the already overwhelming destruction of the storm itself, could have been avoided with resilience plans like solar panels and home batteries.
It's a life-sustaining way to build up a more secure future. It's time to recognize that sustainable building necessarily involves power resilience.

Volume 47 number 2 (2019)
Alexander William Roberts observed around one hundred variable stars mainly during the period 1891–1912. In 2004 we succeeded in digitizing around 70,000 of his visual observations which were added to the AAVSO International Database (AID), ensuring these are available for further study. These observations, many of which pre-date the existence of the AAVSO, extend the period of observation of many variable stars by one or two decades earlier. This paper summarizes the observations made by Roberts and added to the AID, and gives examples of some apparent discrepancies which warrant further investigation.

Careers rarely develop the way we plan them. Our career path often takes many twists and turns, with particular events, choices and people influencing our direction.
We asked Damien Mason from CRH plc to give some advice for people considering this job:
If you are really interested in people and have good interpersonal skills, you will find this job very rewarding.
Like a lot of jobs, you will not be using all the theoretical knowledge you gained in University or College, but you will develop significant management potential and the environment is stimulating and rewarding.
As an engineer, you will probably spend about 50% of your time in the office, and the other 50% out in the plant.
You should also expect that you may be asked if you are willing to travel abroad. This would be very attractive to most people, and a definite means to gain great experience, but it may not suit everyone.
You should ideally be a balanced person, someone with a good deal of technical knowledge, but also a good ability to deal with people.
Responsibility and challenges will be given to you from day one, and if you can handle the pressure, you will gain more and more responsibilities, ultimately leading you to gain invaluable experience, and undoubtedly onto a successful management position.
With the global nature of ICL's parent company CRH, this could be yours in Ireland or one of many countries worldwide.
Not surprisingly, some aspect of the natural sciences will run through the Naturalist's interests - from ecological awareness to nutrition and health. People with an interest in horticulture, land usage and farming (including fish) are Naturalists. Some Naturalists focus on animals rather than plants, and may enjoy working with, training, caring for, or simply herding them. Other Naturalists will prefer working with the end result of nature's produce - the food produced from plants and animals. Naturalists like solving problems with solutions that show some sensitivity to the environmental impact of what they do. They like to see practical results and prefer action to talking and discussing.
Looking for a Job? We have a number of tools and plenty of advice to help you find the best graduate jobs in Ireland.
A-Z of graduate training programmes. These are often run by larger companies who provide students with a valuable bridge between university and working life.
Choosing an employer that suits you is just as important as choosing a job - if your way
of working or living is at odds with your employer, neither of you will be happy.
Undertaking a post-graduate programme is a big investment in terms of time and money, so
it's worth exploring all options before making a decision.

Jesse B. "JB" Morgan, Jr. (Sign Guestbook)
Jesse Bryon "JB" Morgan Jr. passed away July 19, 2019 at age 91. He was a veteran of the United States Army, served during the Korean Conflict, owned and managed several Wholesale Optical Laboratories and was a member of Fountain City United Methodist Church.
JB is preceded in death by his parents, Jesse Bryon Morgan, Sr. and Evelyn Holland Morgan; sister and brothers, Olivia Morgan Brown, Clarence Morgan and Dean Morgan. He is survived by his wife of 62 years, Willie Swan Morgan; brother and sister Neal (Jackie) Morgan and Betty (James) Law; children, Sandy Morgan, Jeff (Rene) Morgan and Susan (Andrew) Crawley; grandchildren, Brandi (Kenny) Smith, Morgan Crawley, Josh (Charlotte) Morgan, Johnny (Casie) Morgan and Jordan Crawley; great grandchildren, Kierstin Parson and Jaxson Morgan as well as many beloved nieces, nephews, cousins, in-laws, Glenwood NC school classmates and friends.
JB loved his family well, enjoyed his profession "making eyeglasses," and filled a garage full of classic cars. In 1949, JB met Ray Odom who persuaded him to work for American Optical in Jacksonville, FL rather than return to his hometown of Marion, NC. After working in the Surface Department at AO, JB was drafted and served in Korea in the 31st Infantry Regiment on the fighting front. In 1952, JB returned to American Optical and worked his way up to Assistant Manager while attending business college at night. JB also persuaded Willie Swan to be his wife and they were married in 1957. That same year, JB and two partners bought Peninsula Optical in Jacksonville, FL. For 15 years, JB was instrumental in building Peninsula into a thriving progressive lab. In 1972, Peninsula was sold to Itek Corporation. One year to the day later, JB turned in his notice to Itek. The family moved to Tuxedo, NC where JB opened a General Store similar to the one his father owned in Glenwood. However, JB was soon lured back into the Optical business to become General Manager for Wren Optical Labs in Augusta and Savannah, GA and Charleston, SC. He served in this capacity for 8 years. In 1982, JB and Willie visited the World's Fair in Knoxville, TN and stopped by to visit Charlie Arnhart at Volunteer Optical. In 1983, JB purchased Volunteer Optical. JB worked until age 79 when he sold the business to Hoya Vision in 2007 and retired. JB was joined at Volunteer Optical by his three children, Jeff Morgan – Knoxville Laboratory General Manager, Sandy Morgan – ERP Manager/IT Specialist, and Susan Crawley – Director of Internal Audit & Compliance who continue to work for Hoya Vision.
JB leaves a wide legacy and impact on all who knew him. He was known for his honesty in business and love for people in all settings at home, work, church or travelling adventures. He had a unique ability to build relationships by treating his customers, vendors, peers and friends with care and respect. From the beginning, JB embraced technology, education, and networking in the optical industry. JB served as Lightbender President and OLA Director. He was also recognized as an OLA Pioneer Hall of Fame Inductee, Knoxville Enterpriser of the Month, TOA 2003 Public Service Award Winner, and Rodenstock Lab of the Year Owner.
Our hope is that he was met by beloved family and had a beautiful Packard waiting for him!
In lieu of flowers donations may be made to Remote Area Medical (2200 Stock Creek Blvd. Rockford, TN 37853 or online at www.ramusa.org). The family will receive friends from 5:30-7:00pm, Thursday, July 25th at Fountain City United Methodist Church with a Funeral Service to follow at 7:00pm. Graveside will be at 9:00am on Friday, July 26th at Berry Highland Memorial Cemetery.
Gentry Griffey Funeral Chapel is honored to serve the Morgan family and invites you to view and sign the online registry below.

Meet Fleur Hoefkens-Lee, the new Creative Producer of Bath Dance. Fleur has recently taken over from Lisa Lort, who has moved to Pavilion Dance South West in Bournemouth. I caught up with Fleur to find out more about her background and her vision for Bath Dance.
1. What is your dance background?
My love of dance started at school, the age of 11 when I did my first after school dance club. A teacher noticed a spark in me and suggested I join a dance school. From that moment dance became my life. I took part in 100s of performances and competitions, went to Italy to perform with my school a number of times and studied GCSE and A-Level Dance.
At this point most of my studying had been in commercial styles such as show dance and street dance, which I loved. However, Contemporary Dance at GCSE and A-Level spoke to a different part of me that other styles hadn't. It felt like it gave me a voice, a way to express myself and complete creative freedom in the choreographic process. This led me to take the contemporary dance route in higher education and I applied to various university courses. (At this point I hadn't had any exposure to vocational courses that places like Laban and The Place offer, otherwise I'd probably have applied to those too.)
All my auditions went well, however one stuck with me. I remember turning up to the audition at Bath Spa University and listening to the head of dance talk about the course. I was bubbling with excitement and enthusiasm at the thought of being able to spend every day dancing and learning about my craft. The energy of the teachers and their backgrounds sold the course to me and that September I started my journey into Contemporary Dance.What I loved about this course was the diversity of areas it touched upon. Rather than simply training us as performers/choreographers, it opened up our eyes to a wealth of opportunity and possibility within the dance world. Somatics and Contact Improvisation were the two modules that resonated with me most as an individual. They not only taught me exciting skills that complimented my dance training, but encouraged me to look at myself as an artist at a much deeper level- as a human with emotions, strengths and weaknesses & experiences. This then developed my creativity and helped me decide what sort of artist/ practitioner I wanted to be.
I went on to achieve a BA Dance Hons 1st Class degree and was awarded an Artwork Bursary Award.After my studies I spent time doing class in London, traveling and performing with various local companies in Bath. The Egg Theatre gave me my 1st paid job as a workshop assistant for YPT dance and my love of teaching and youth dance was born.
For the last 8 years I have been a dedicated dance artist, passionate about dance performance, engagement and education. I have worked extensively within the BANES and Bristol area in dance performance, project management and teaching. This has included working in a variety of settings such as schools, theatres, community groups, higher education, youth dance companies and professional dance companies.My main project over the last 4 years has been founding and running a not-for-profit contemporary youth dance company. Dedicated to facilitating creative exciting opportunities and advanced training for 8-19 year olds.
2. Tell us more about your work with Banes Youth Dance Co and why you decided to initiate the company?
As a company we strive to get the best from all of our dancers with fun, energetic classes. We pride ourselves on offering exciting opportunities, regular technique classes, performance platforms, arts award, work experience as well as confidence and friendship. We now have three groups, Juniors, Rec and The Company, which offer classes from age 8-19yrs. Our partnership with Bath Spa University means we are a great stepping stone into studying dance in higher education.
We try and ignite in our dancers the following characteristics…
TRUST : To work well together and trust each other
CONFIDENCE : To take part in regular performances and have confidence in your own ability.
RESPONSIBILITY : To be responsible for their personal body development – warm-up, stretch, live a healthy lifestyle, wear the correct clothing.
INSPIRATION : To draw inspiration from and be open to the wealth and diversity of different choreographers and dancers.
DESIRE : Imbue students with the desire to keep training in contemporary dance to a higher level.
We aim to do this by:-
INSPIRING : Young people to engage and develop their skills in Contemporary Dance through working with professionals, partnering with the University Dance Department and delivering exciting workshops.
NURTURING : A pilot youth dance company that responds and evolves to the needs of the participants and the local area.
SUPPORTING : Listening to and supporting the dancers in their aims, dreams and development.
SIGNPOSTING : Directing young dancers to access specialist knowledge, expertise and high quality opportunities.
When I first thought about setting up a youth dance company for the area, Bath and North East Somerset (B&NES) was rich in it's abundance of private and community led dance schools, providing opportunities for young people and children to engage in dance from Tap to ballet, from Street Dance to Stage School. At least seven out of it's 14 secondary schools provide some form of dance accreditation through G.C.S.E, A Level or BTEC Dance. B&NES was a thriving youth dance scene, but had a significant gap in the lack of opportunities for young people to access Contemporary Dance outside of school.
Unless young people attended a school with dance as part of the curriculum or offered it as a form of accreditation, they may never have got the chance to discover, explore or be inspired by contemporary dance. In turn this had led to a lack of B&NES youth dance representation at regional and national events and initiatives.The lack of opportunity for young people to experience contemporary dance in B&NES is what spurred me to found B&NES Youth Dance Company.
I proposed in a funding bid that my dance company – Peppered Frills Dance – would work in partnership with Bath Spa University to develop the vision of a B&NES Youth Dance Company. A Youth Company that would support young people's aspirations, support Bath Dance's mission to make dance visible in B&NES, as well as develop passion in young people to access Contemporary Dance and take it to a higher level.From this, we were given the funding to develop B&NES Youth Dance Company and have been going strong since 2012.
3. What is your vision for Bath Dance?
My vision for Bath Dance is for it to be a catalyst for high quality dance provision of all styles and at all levels. I'd like Bath Dance to be known nationally for it's high quality dance offer, excellent local practitioners and artists and as a place where graduates and professionals want to stay to develop their careers.I'd like there to be an annual event that showcases and shares high level dance made in BANES as well as bringing exciting companies into the area. An event that people from all over the South West and beyond come to see and take part in dance. I'm hoping to draw on what Bath already has to offer and support the excellent things already taking place. This includes offering work experience, volunteer opportunities and connecting with all the dance groups/ organisations in the area.
Accessibility and transparency is key to Bath Dance's plan, with the aim of inspiring, supporting, nurturing and signposting the local talent in the area.I'd also like dance to be part of Bath's culture. I'm hoping to develop strong relationships with Bath's museums, libraries and other cultural hubs to help strengthen our connection with the wider community and help bring these community buildings to life.
Bath Dance is in a period of transition. I'm currently contracted for a year at 2 days a week. We are now at the end of our funding remit, so this year is all about raising funds for the next few years and holding carefully all the great things Bath Dance has already put in place.
With limited capacity, in the short term I will be prioritising:
* Meeting and connecting with local people and listening to what they feel is needed/wanted for the area
* Developing a strategy to take Bath Dance forward
* Applying to G4A and writing other funding applications for Bath Dance
* Supporting local practitioners with mentoring 1:1s, Creative Cuppas and Dance Seed Funding
* Developing a deeper understanding of what dance opportunities are currently offered in Bath
Being a face for Bath Dance by attending local performances as well as local and regional meetings concerning dance provision.

CHICAGO -- A nationwide migration enforcement operation targeting people who are in the United States illegally is expected to begin as early as this weekend after it was postponed last month by President Donald Trump, according to two administration officials and migrant activists.
The operation would target people with final deportation orders, including families whose cases were fast-tracked by judges in 10 major cities, including Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and Miami.
It has sparked anger and concern among migrant-rights advocates and lawmakers.
"Our communities have been in constant fear," Estela Vara, a Chicago-area organizer, said Thursday at a rally outside the city's Immigration and Customs Enforcement offices where some activists chanted "Immigration Not Deportation!"
The sweep remains in flux and could begin this weekend or later, according to the two administration officials, who were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. Still, the American Civil Liberties Union pre-emptively filed a lawsuit Thursday in an attempt to protect asylum seekers.
Meanwhile, activists ramped up efforts to prepare by bolstering know-your-rights pocket guides, circulating information about hotlines and planning public demonstrations. Vigils outside detention centers and hundreds of other locations nationwide were set for today, to be followed by protests Saturday in Miami and Chicago.
The operation is similar to ones conducted regularly since 2003 that often produce hundreds of arrests. It is somewhat unusual to target families, as opposed to migrants with criminal histories, but it's not unprecedented. The administrations of Trump and President Barack Obama have targeted families in previous operations.
But this latest effort is notable because of the politics swirling around it.
Last month, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement director at the time, Mark Morgan, signaled that agents would escalate efforts to round up families. Days before the operation was to begin, Trump forecast the plan on Twitter, blindsiding immigration agents whose safety officials feared would be compromised as a result.
In early June, the Department of Homeland Security's acting secretary, Kevin McAleenan, told Morgan to call off the operation. McAleenan did not support the raids, officials said at the time, in part out of concern that parents who are in the country illegally could be separated from any of their children who are U.S. citizens.
In a meeting with White House officials June 21, two days before the raids were scheduled to begin, McAleenan again outlined the challenges of the operation, including the separation of families and the logistics of housing them until they can be removed. If parents are found to have children who are U.S. citizens, for example, immigration agents will need to wait with the children in a hotel room until a relative in the United States can claim them.
Homeland Security officials also worried that many of the families that the administration had hoped to detain might have left the addresses known to Immigration and Customs Enforcement after Trump tweeted the agency's plans.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., called Trump after his tweet and urged him to halt the operation, which in a statement hours later she described as "heartless."
Trump then tweeted that he would delay the effort at the Democrats' request. But he also threatened to resume the deportations if Democrats refused to join with Republican lawmakers to "work out a solution to the Asylum and Loophole problems at the Southern Border."
Days later, the Senate passed a $4.6 billion humanitarian-aid package for the border.
The Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency said in a statement that it would not discuss specifics about enforcement operations.
"As always, ICE prioritizes the arrest and removal of unlawfully present aliens who pose a threat to national security, public safety and border security," according to the statement.
Trump started hinting anew in recent days that more removals were coming. He said last weekend that they would be starting "fairly soon."
"Well, I don't call them raids," he said. "I say they came in illegally and we're bringing them out legally."
Ken Cuccinelli, the new head of Citizenship and Immigration Services, told CNN on Wednesday that the raids were "absolutely going to happen."
Pelosi said she hoped the administration would reconsider. "Families belong together," she said.
The administration has been straining to manage a border crisis, and some officials believe deporting families would deter other people from coming. But others have criticized any move that draws resources away from the border at a time when the Border Patrol is detaining four times the number of people it can hold. Also, a watchdog report found filthy, potentially dangerous conditions at some stations.
Democratic Rep. Pramila Jayapal of Washington state, co-chairman of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and a former migrant advocate, accused the administration of showing a "willingness to be cruel at every turn. It sickens me that this is the United States of America. We are so much better than this."
House Minority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy, a California Republican, blamed Pelosi for the raids, saying she had done "nothing" since they were delayed. "It is the speaker who caused this problem," he said.
He said Trump would have postponed the raids again if he saw progress in the House.
Operations in New Orleans were put on hold because of severe weather there. The city tweeted that it confirmed with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency that enforcement would be suspended through the weekend as the region faced the first hurricane of the season.
Some activists said they were gearing up for operations to start Sunday and planned to protest. Organizers estimated a rally planned for Saturday in Chicago would draw about 10,000 people.
"We will not be swayed by fear and fiat," said Justin Valas with Asian Americans Advancing Justice in Chicago.
The ACLU lawsuit, filed in federal court in New York, argued that thousands of migrants fleeing violence in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras were not allowed a fair chance to request asylum but were still ordered removed from the country. They are asking that those individuals get another hearing.
Others said they were skeptical that Trump would follow through on the threat.
Advocates have ramped up know-your-rights training since Trump took office, reminding migrants, regardless of their immigration status, about their right to remain silent and to ask authorities for proper paperwork.
They have also explained that migrants can often avoid arrest simply by not opening doors to agents, who need permission to enter private homes. That has forced Immigration and Custom Enforcement officers to wait outside courthouses and other public places to make arrests.
"We don't want to alarm folks, but we want to alert folks," said Melissa Taveras of the Florida Immigrant Coalition.
Information for this article was contributed by Sophia Tareen, Colleen Long, Lisa Mascaro and Mary Clare Jalonick of The Associated Press; and by Caitlin Dickerson and Zolan Kanno-Youngs of The New York Times.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said Thursday that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is to blame for immigration officials' plans to carry out raids in major cities, saying she has done nothing since the initial raids were delayed by President Donald Trump. He said Trump would have postponed the raids again if the House showed any sign of progress on immigration legislation.
