Interview with:
Leahsandra Powell
What did you first read? How did you begin to write? Who were the first to read what you wrote?
Everything. Raced through kid's books and then through the classics. I typed my first 'book' at age 8. (Maybe 10 pages long. I was so excited!) My first reader was my father.
What is your favorite genre? Can you provide a link to a site where we can read some of your work or learn something about it?
Genre: Spirituality, though of a rather...eclectic non-mainstream sort. My website is: www.leahsandra.net where samples of my non-fiction, fiction, poetry and even some visions can be found.
What is your creative process like? What happens before sitting down to write?
I start my waking day in a quiet, contemplative state. I have pre-dawn meditation time outside, my form of prayer-time, and then I go still. Usually, within about half an hour, my muse is musing and I get to work. Sometimes, when I'm really 'in the zone' on a long piece, a book, say... I can actually awaken with a few paragraphs or even a page already written in my mind. I still do my normal routine, but kind of put the words 'on hold' until I can get to my computer. Occasionally I'll jot a few notes, but usually I retain it all. Love when that happens!
What type of reading inspires you to write?
Quality writing! Either quality writing, or real-life wow experiences - no matter what the quality is... I try to read authors I admire, that I'd like to someday reach their level of excellence... I study as I read them, trying to learn how to make my own craft better. At the same time though, I enjoy internet groups of non-writers, just spiritual people sharing their lives, and I'm often totally inspired by them... So I find inspiration really, in all kinds of writing. (I just canceled out my first answer I guess!)
What do you think are the basic ingredients of a story?
It would depend on the story.
What voice do you find most to your liking: first person or third person?
I'm comfortable with both, though so far, my published work has all been first person. I want to get back to third person eventually.
What well known writers do you admire most?
Oh, so many! Off the top of my head, Jodi Piccoult, Marge Piercey, Starhawk, Anne Rice, Stephen King, William Horwood, Pam Houston, Annie Proulx, Pat Conroy, John Irving, Tolkien and a host of others.
What is required for a character to be believable? How do you create yours?
I haven't written fiction in many years, though I look forward to getting back to it. With fiction... the characters just appear in my head. I guess my muse creates them. But they're entirely real to me, so I just need to study them, work with them, discover details of who they are and write them in.
Are you equally good at telling stories orally?
At times... not in groups. But one on one, around a campfire, or with a few close friends late at night around a kitchen table... I can be. I'm more comfortable though, with paper.
Deep down inside, who do you write for?
Partially for myself. Partially to leave a part of myself behind. The last half decade of writing, it's been to try to touch, to warn, to maybe help another not to duplicate my mistakes. Especially my two books "Woman... Speak!" http://www.leahsandra.net/WomanSpeak.html and "Drug Winters." http://www.leahsandra.net/DrugWinters.html But also, with my book "Spirit Stories: True Tales of Divine Intervention, Inspiration and Healing," http://www.leahsandra.net/SpiritStories.html I published that one definitely for others, and for the Spirit That Lives In All Things, in deepest thanks.
Is writing a form of personal therapy? Are internal conflicts a creative force?
Therapy, for me, yes. It has been an avenue of a lot of healing. I don't know about internal conflicts being a creative source, but when I have internal conflicts raging, my writing has certainly been a way of letting off steam and smoothing some of the combatants down! For me it would be more of an outlet for some destructive forces.
Does reader feed-back help you?
In the last few years, absolutely. My pre-readers have kept me going when I probably wouldn't have had the guts to keep plodding on (due to the topics of my books) or the strength. I've been fortunate to have wonderful writer friends who have worked with enormous patience, trying to beef my work up. (I'm dyslexic, only have a high school education, and grammar and I don't see eye to eye!)
Do you participate in competitions? Have you received any awards?
No, I've not entered any yet.
Do you share rough drafts of your writings with someone whose opinion you trust?
My first draft I share with my husband, author Nicholas Powell, ("Twelve Years with a Wolfdog" - http://www.codythewolfdog.net/ ), and my 'constant reader', a gal from South Africa, who's been my number one fan for years. Then after I've gone through my work a few more times, I ask other writers, at least 3, more if I can find them, and one or two pre-readers to take a look. It's amazing the different insights and errors they all can find, and I value their input - it's golden to me.
Do you believe you have already found "your voice" or is that something one is always searching for?
I think my voice changes with every piece I write. But I certainly have found it!
What discipline do you impose on yourself regarding schedules, goals, etc.?
I work at something just about every day, usually putting in at least 6 to 8 hours, and rarely taking a day off. That always entails writing of some sort. It might involve researching.
What do you surround yourself with in your work area in order to help your concentrate?
Oh my. My computer desk looks like - well, the top of it is - an altar. With little gifts from friends from round the world... a red stuffed dragon from Wales, a batik cloth from S Africa... a gorgeous wolf painting hangs to the right of me... that sort of thing. A picture of my father and a beloved old boss (from a bookstore) both crossed now, sit right here and look at me... still believing in me, from that side. A picture of my mom and hubby Nick too, believing in me from this side... When I get stuck... I just glance around the area... Gaze at or pick up one of these things... pause, get clear, and keep going.
Do you write on a computer? Do you print frequently? Do you correct on paper? What is your process?
Mostly computer these days, though I keep a clipboard handy at all times - especially for sitting on the porch. After 3 or 4 drafts on the computer, with edits and suggestions from others, I print one copy, do edits from there.
What sites do you frequent on-line to share experiences or information?
I've backed off the last year or so, from too many groups. I'm about ready to get back out onto the internet again, and I'm not sure where I'll end up.
What has been your experience with publishers?
My husband and I have been using the print on demand, self publishing system at Create Space. We have 6 books now between us, and have been very satisfied with the service.
What are you working on now?
I have two half completed books, a couple short stories rolling around, and a half-formed novel is incubating. But for the next couple months, I'll be focusing a lot of time and energy into marketing.
What do you recommend I do with all those things I wrote years ago but have never been able to bring myself to show anyone?
SAVE them. I ended up losing much of my early work, including three finished novels I wrote while in high school. I mourn those! Not that they'd have ever been publishable, but probably I could have used them in some way, even as inspiration for the adult author. But then, that's me. I do know some people make bonfires, but maybe because I have lost so much, I grieve when I hear that.

Elizabeth Seton Academy
to Complete Its Ministry
Declining enrollment and mounting financial difficulties have made it necessary for Elizabeth Seton Academy in Dorchester to bring its ministry of Catholic school education to young women to an end, it was announced August 3. The school will not be operational for the 2016/2017 academic year.
In an August 3, 2016 letter to families, Chair of the Board of Trustees Frances Birmingham, described insurmountable challenges that have saddled the school. She writes, "For more than a decade Elizabeth Seton Academy has offered families a private, all girls' Catholic college preparatory high school experience. Despite limited resources and enrollment challenges, Elizabeth Seton Academy has carried on its mission valiantly since 2003. This decision is based on the school's current financial situation, increased debt obligations, declining enrollment, and increased costs of operations."
A student/parent meeting will be held in the days ahead to respond to and assist students and families in transitioning to one of the area Catholic schools that have offered assistance to the students. The faculty and staff have committed to help facilitate in connecting families with the new schools, host open houses and offer guidance for students and their families.
The school's faculty and staff were informed on August 3. Details concerning their severance packages and unemployment benefits were provided and teachers' resumes will be shared with other Catholic schools in the diocese.
Elizabeth Seton Academy was established in 2003 in the spirit and values of Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton, as a private, Catholic all girls' college preparatory high school that provides a nurturing community for learners. At Elizabeth Seton Academy, each student is an important part of a community whose spirit accompanies every phase of student life, whether it is athletics, cultural and social events, or daily schoolwork.
This spirit of community is a feeling of loyalty to our school that promotes an atmosphere of respect and cooperation that is essential to the learning process. Each student contributes her own unique talents and gifts to this community and enriches the school spirit at ESA. The spirit serves as a common bond –a feeling of belonging- that will remain with each student throughout the years – and will be sorely missed in the community.
It is the Board's hope and prayer that students will continue their education at one of the local Catholic schools. This would be the greatest testament to the spirit and legacy of Elizabeth Seton Academy.

Finding Segovia - History & Strange Food
I was going to title this entry "Bus Blunder With Busting Bladder" but that is only part of the story.

Lunch among the Roman arches
... piece of Roman engineering. The huge aqueduct, built at the end of the first century AD, on a series of double-decker arches almost thirty metres tall, is in the middle of the modern town, dominating the central square. Segovia is a World Heritage Site, not simply for the aqueduct, but also for its medieval architecture, from palace and cathedral to monasteries and taverns.
A Day in Segovia! (Ashley)
Good afternoon!
This morning, we left Salamanca and traveled for two hours to Segovia. It was wonderful to drive through sunflower fields, especially since I did not know that was an important export from Spain!
Once we arrived in Segovia, we headed to the Alcazar, a castle/fortress with influence from the Moors and Catholics alike. It is really interesting to see the blend between the two cultures. While this is a common mixtures in ...
The Rain in Spain Stays Mainly in the Plain
Dennis and I had assumed that by this stage of our trip, we would have ditched our well-worn pullovers, relegating them to the depths of our backpacks. I had visions of frolicking through a summery Spain, which surely would be warm by late May... Wrong. Europe apparently had a mild winter, in contrast with most of the U.S., but is now paying for it with a chilly spring. How chilly? When Dennis and I arrived in Segovia around noon on May 22 (Day 148), the ...
Back into small town living

We walked upstairs and found ourselves right in the middle of all of the action. The first stop was to find a map and an ATM. Luckily for us this was a tourist area and there were maps everywhere and we even found one of our own banks to avoid the ATM fees! Once that was all wrapped up, we were on our way.

ConocoPhillips (COP) explores for, develops, and produces crude oil, bitumen, natural gas, liquefied natural gas, and natural gas liquids worldwide. Over the past week, the company's board of directors approved a 5.80% increase in the quarterly dividend to 73 cents/share. After this increase, this dividend achiever has managed to boost cash payouts to its patient long-term investors for a cool 14 years in a row. This was the second dividend increase after the spin-off of Phillips66. The first increase was by 4.50% to 69 cents/share in 2013.
When I last analyzed ConocoPhillips, I really liked what I saw. I have been adding to the stock for the past two years. I really like the fact that the company trying to deliver value to shareholders by focusing on projects with the best potential for return on capital, in order to deliver an annual growth in production between 3 – 5 % per year. As a result of the company's ongoing portfolio optimization and effort to increase returns on capital, the company has been able to deliver results to shareholders. One of the company's stated objectives of delivering a return to shareholders has been through regular dividend increases.
In fact, after the dividend increase was announced, the company's CEO was quoted in the press release, stating that "A compelling dividend remains a top priority for our company and reflects our commitment to deliver competitive shareholder returns".
One of the biggest misconceptions about ConocoPhillips is that the company didn't increase dividends in 2012. To the inexperienced investor, who doesn't dig deeper into the data, it looks like the company maintained the dividend at 66 cents/share between 2011 and 2013. The reality is that the dividend investor from early 2012 owned one share of COP that paid them 66 cents/share. This dividend investor received half a share of Phillips 66 (PSX) in the middle of 2012, after the company was spun off, that paid them 20 cents/share initially. In addition, they still held on to their original share of ConocoPhillips, which paid 66 cents/share. So as a result, the investor was left with a share of the new ConocoPhillips (COP), and the half share in Phillips 66 (PSX). The new ConocoPhillips company owned only the exploration and production portion of the old ConocoPhillips, but it still paid the same dividend amount as if it was the larger predecessor company. The first quarter after the spin-off, the shareholder received 66 cents from ConocoPhillips shares and 10 cents from their half share of Phillips 66. Subsequently, Phillips 66 dividend has been increased to 50 cents/share. Phillips 66 ended up with the Refining and Marketing assets from the original ConocoPhillips company from pre-2012. Those include Refineries in the US, as well as pipelines and terminals across the US. Contrary to popular opinion, the gas stations that you see in the US, that have the name ConocoPhillips or Phillips 66 are not owned by either company. Those have been sold out almost a decade ago, in an effort for the legacy ConocoPhillips to focus on its core competencies.
This is why you need to hold on to your spin-offs, and not sell them. Investors who fixate on having a certain number of companies in their portfolios might end up selling companies like Phillips 66, because they are arguing that they have too many companies in their portfolios to monitor. In my experience, selling a spin-off is usually a mistake. My experience includes Phillip Morris separating into Altria (MO), Phillip Morris International (PM) and Kraft, and the subsequent split of Kraft into Mondelez (MDLZ) and Kraft (KRFT). It also includes the split of Abbott into Abbott (ABT) and Abbvie (ABBV). I hold on to those positions, because the research I have read indicates that this has been the smart thing to do in the past. I initiated a position in ConocoPhillips after the spin-off however, which is why I don't own any Phillips 66.
I believe that this is a great company to buy and then hold on for many decades, while receiving higher dividends over time, that eventually surpass the cost basis of the stock.Unfortunately, I believe that shares have gone up quicker than I anticipated. Depending on other opportunities available for my capital, I would not be opposed to further building out my position in ConocoPhillips. It would be nice if I can add to my position at a starter yield of 4% or forward P/E of around 11.
What is your opinion on the company and the shares?

Aneristic Illusions / Paris attacks thread« on: November 14, 2015, 04:38:03 pm »
For those who want to talk about it.
I've mostly confined my points on it to Facebook, but I'll put this here, for people who want to know my take:
I've mostly confined my points on it to Facebook, but I'll put this here, for people who want to know my take:
With the caveat that I literally got up half an hour ago and so have not seen any coverage since 7am, UK time...
ISIS is also my chief suspect. The methodology could go either way, Al-Qaeda or ISIS, with Beslan, Mumbai etc. The gratuitous nature of the violence also suggests ISIS over AQ, the latter being slightly more stringent with targeting (see Charlie Hebdo, frequent AQ complaints about civilian Muslims being collateral damage etc).
According to some reports, just before I went to bed, one of the gunmen shouted "this is the fault of Hollande, he does not have to intervene in Syria" before he killed himself. I suggested, back in 2014, that if overt intervention in Syria looked to be on the cards, the strategic calculus would change for ISIS, that while they would encourage and agitate for attacks in the west, they would prefer to focus on their more immediate enemies except in the case of potential attack. In the long term, I think ISIS would always be looking at attacking the west, it has to wrest the crown from Zawahiri somehow, and beyond that, their overall ideology paints the west as enemies of Islam.
Another thing not to discount is their awareness of the refugee crisis in Europe, and how an attack could complicate the political response there or even work to inflame tensions. ISIS are remarkably media savvy, and I'd be very surprised if they weren't aware of how such an attack would, almost inevitably, be followed by calls to refuse refugees, crack down on Musims generally. That then plays directly into their propaganda. It also sends a message to the refugees - no matter how far you run, we can reach you.
Another thing, that was mentioned in the Vice article but that I neglected to mention above. ISIS has been put under quite a bit of military pressure lately. I suspect it's more of a short-term issue than the death knell of the group, given their ability to bounce back.
That said, a large attack like this...well, it's advertising. Get more men and women joining the jihad. Convince the potential donors in the Gulf states that ISIS is leading the Islamic revolution, and so deserves their donations. An influx of recruits and money could be just what they need to turn things around in those areas where they've been taking a beating recently.

Stephen Gallo Hired by Bank of Montreal as Currency StrategistLukanyo Mnyanda and David Goodman
Stephen Gallo, ranked the most-accurate currency forecaster in a Bloomberg-compiled review in June 2011, has joined Bank of Montreal as European head of currency strategy in London.
His appointment was confirmed by Alexis Brown, a Toronto-based spokeswoman for Canada's fourth-largest lender, in an e-mailed response to questions yesterday. Gallo started his role on April 8, Brown said in a telephone interview today.
Gallo left his job as foreign-exchange strategist at Credit Agricole SA in London in November. He had joined the French bank in May from Schneider Foreign Exchange Ltd., now called Monex Europe Ltd., where he was head of market analysis.

Hello, ESP32 team.
I am implementing BLE multi-connection : one central(client) <-> many peripherals(server)
As far as I know, I have to have gatt clients for each gatt server. But it seems like each gatt client is overwriting and interfering the other gatt client in terms of callback functions and other significant variables such as gatt_if.
What is the recommended procedure for BLE multi-connection with ESP32?
Please specify the procedure in detail. If there is a sample code for reference, please provide me.
Your help is greatly appreciated

He said it: Players, coaches talk after Stars' 4-1 win over Nashville
Courtesy of the Stars' PR Department:
Stars Head Coach Lindy Ruff
On executing the simple things in the game:
"We put the puck in the right spot a lot of the times and were able to create some pressure, and we have numbers back when teams are coming out. We have to give our forwards a lot of credit for coming back and doing the work their doing and getting shot leads and blocking more shots."
On Erik Cole's play tonight:
"I think Erik has played well for a good period of time. These last few weeks he has really played well for us and has skated well. He physically when on the puck, he is a hard guy to knock off."
On Chiasson's illness:
"Yeah he skated this morning, and he's lost a lot of weight. Just felt weak after the skate, and the plan was to try to get him in but he felt he just couldn't go in."
Stars forward Jamie Benn
On getting the win after Christmas break:
"Oh yeah, we'll take that after three days off. I thought it was a good win for our team."
On scoring the first goal 42 seconds into the game:
"Not too often. It was a good start for our team, and I thought we had a good group effort tonight. I thought our goalie was great. The biggest part were those points.
On setting the tone for the next few home games:
"These are very important, obviously. I think we have done a pretty good job on the road this year, and I think we've got to take advantage of the scheduled home games."
Stars forward Erik Cole
On how important it is to start this home stretch of games with a win:
"Yeah, very important. I think it's been tough for us to find any rhythm at home. We haven't had a lot of home games consecutively, so it's been difficult for us at times at home."
On his goals in the second:
"I think we had a couple really good scoring chances prior to them (the Predators) getting their one goal. I felt like we were creating opportunities, and them tying up the game was a little bit of a wake up call, and we were able to up our intensity a little bit."
On Kari Lehtonen's play tonight:
"His preparation and how he goes about his day inside the rink is pretty impressive. He's got a routine, and he sticks to it. He's not one that sits around and chats with the guys. He gets his work in and is focused on a daily basis. It's no surprise really from our standpoint. We see how committed he is to do work every day. I know he had a little bit of a tough stretch where he wasn't happy with his game, but at the same time we weren't playing that great in front of him. I think there has been numerous times when we've needed a save, and he's been there for us, and he just continues to impress us. "
Stars defenseman Alex Goligoski
On coming back from a 1-1 tie in the second:
"Yeah anytime you score a goal that quick after they tie a game up like that. I think we had a bunch of chances and then they score one, you don't know which way you want to go. If you don't get one right away the game kind of drags on especially against a team like that."
On the number of home games the team has coming up:
"We haven't played that many games, but I've got to think we are up there in road games. I think that's the big thing. It feels like we have been on the road a lot. We have a good chunk of these next games at home, and I think it's important that we play good solid defense where it's tough for teams to come in here and win."
Predators Head Coach Barry Trotz (http://bit.ly/1eKxT1W)
On getting off to slow start:
"Obviously we are down one-nothing one minute into the game, you are sort of chasing the whole game. I thought we battled back. I thought we got a little loose. We were trying so hard to battle back there we gave up a lot of two-on-ones, three-on-twos, a lot of things we haven't been doing a lot lately. We got that settled down we got a big goal and they snapped the energy right back, that first shift after a goal is critical. You want to get it and get some zone time and keep the momentum on the other team and we didn't do that."
On going through this winless streak and the goalie play:
"We've been giving up a lot of early goals and tonight I can't blame the goaltender, Carter (Hutton) was pretty decent tonight and our goaltending was adequate tonight. We needed some guys to snipe, we had Lehtonen down a couple of times and they didn't snipe."
On Lehtonen's play:
"He was pretty good. I thought we had some looks. We had some finish around the net and had a couple of real good looks and he stood tall."
Predators goaltender Carter Hutton (http://bit.ly/1eh0xmF)
On Benn's early goal:
"He came in with pretty good speed there from the side and somebody fell and their skates got jammed up in my pads, so I couldn't get across. And you know a guy like that is not going to miss an open net and definitely a tough way to start, but I thought I settled in well after that."
On the overall game and his counterpart Kari Lehtonen:
"I tried to battle, but giving up four is not good enough on any night and I thought he (Kari Lehtonen) played pretty well on the far end. Any chances we had he kept the puck, kept freezing everything and didn't really give up anything. We had some scrums but couldn't generate anything."

Urban decline and housing reinvestment: the role of construction costs and the supply side
Negative demand shocks have afflicted many American cities in the 20th century and are the main explanation for their decaying housing markets. But what is the role of housing supply? Rational entrepreneurs should not invest in new buildings and renovation when home values are below replacement cost. Households with an investment motive should behave similarly. Empirically, the authors find that construction costs are not very sensitive to building activity but do vary with local income, unionization rates in the construction sector, the level of local regulation, and region. They also document that the variance in building costs generates substantial variance in renovation expenditures across cities. Owner-occupied homes with market values below replacement costs spend about 50 percent less on renovation than similar homes with market values above construction costs. The authors also report on the distribution of the ratio of house value-to-construction cost across markets. The distribution is relatively flat in a number of declining cities, especially older manufacturing areas. In these places, a relatively modest 10 percent decline in replacement costs would find between 7-15 percent of the local housing stock moving from being valued below cost to above cost. Even though modest declines in construction costs are unlikely to change basic urban trends, the authors' results suggest they can be an important factor in determining whether various neighborhoods in declining cities will experience any significant reinvestment. In this respect, declining cities truly cannot afford to be expensive cities in terms of replacement costs: urban scholars and policy makers should begin to pay more attention to the cost side of cities.

San Diego Mayor Bob Filner has exaggerated and distorted the truth lots of times this summer. We've looked into seven recent assertions made by the mayor or his allies and found some creative spin, significant gaps in logic and even an outright falsehood or two.
The mayor's office declined to comment.
Issue: Filner Deputy Chief of Staff Allen Jones resigned.
The cavalcade of bad news for Filner began three weeks before allegations of sexual harassment broke. Jones and the mayor's former spokeswoman Irene McCormack, who later filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against Filner, resigned after a tumultuous staff meeting. Jones was seen exiting City Hall with police officers helping him carry out boxes.

Bolting at High Tor
Derbyshire Dales District Council has reported a recent incident where a climber was seen installing bolts on a sport route at High Tor, Matlock. This involved removing some hawthorn at the top of the crag, deliberately placed to discourage abseiling. High Tor is a sensitive area and climbers are asked to contact the local BMC access rep in future.

The guilty party for the constant stream of reposts and largely unoriginal content on Reddit? Reddit itself.
The site's lengthy spam rules generally discourage the submission of content from sites other than those with very recognizable URLs. In the self-promotion section of Reddit's official FAQ, it goes as far as to state, "If you run a subreddit that is only your own content or your own links, that's not okay and seen as linkfarming or using reddit for SEO. Even in your own subreddit, just submitting links to your own site/stuff can get you banned."
The section goes on: "We're not making a judgement [sic] on your quality, just your behavior on reddit. Your stuff's probably amazing and someone would be really interested in it but... If you submit mostly your own links and your presence on reddit is mostly for your self-promotion of your brand, page, blog, app, or business, you are more likely to be a spammer than you think!"
While such restrictions may effectively limit dedicated spammers, some redditors feel that it can be detrimental to the appearance of original content on the site.
"In my time on reddit I've come across numerous shadowbanned accounts belonging to bloggers who have been banned under Reddit's spam rules," redditor cojoco said in a July 31 post on r/TheoryOfReddit that discussed the matter. "While many of these blogs are not of high quality, there are some very well-regarded journalists who have been banned under these rules. While I'm not sure if there is a better alternative than the current system, I'm very sure that the spam rules as they're currently enforced have been driving content originators off Reddit."
A number of redditors shared cojoco's viewpoint.
"Reddit actually punishes people for being original. Have you ever looked at the new queue for /all? It's full of random, mostly original and boring crap. (also tons of porn) the front-page is mostly reposts with a shred of originality. Draw your own conclusions," redditor strains- said.
"Reddit is great for its candid commentary, but its penchant for low-hanging fruit seems like a huge hurdle to individual success," redditor wrexsol said in agreement. "Maybe OC wasn't what reddit was designed for in the long run, even though that thought could be attributable my individual biases. But I'm wondering just how common it is for some OC creator with a so-called legit claim to fame to actually make it here."
Other redditors disagree. "The good content creators take the time to understand the site they're using," said pigferret.
"Reddit was designed as a link aggregator so the gold standard here is a quality link," gentlebot argued. "Although in practice it hasn't quite worked like this, the idea is to filter the very best from the vastness of the web, not add to the vastness by posting something you wrote.
And considering many blog posts can probably be reorganized into the format of a self post, there is no reason to post uninhibited blogspam other than for personal and/or monetary promotion."
"Part of being a high-quality content originator means being active with both posts and comments and engagement outside of things that you yourself post," spkr4thedead51 said. "Anyone who is truly high-quality is going to do that, and the few shadowbans that target such people are unfortunate, but not so significant that they are going to drive away other participants."
Both sides seemed to agree that a site-wide shadowban was indeed too serious of a punishment for violation—especially unintentional—of Reddit's spam policies.
"[A shadowban] is really way too harsh, especially since they will have no idea they did anything wrong, no feedback at all no nothing," leva549 stated.
Bottom line: When submitting, stick with Imgur-hosted memes and you should be fine. Reddit is turning into an imageboard anyway.
The Daily Dot's subreddit, r/dailydot, highlights the most interesting and important discussions from around the social news site every day.
- A redditor just keeps going and going with the GIF requests. (/r/defaultgems)
- How did domestication actually happen? Or: Why can't my married friends come out to play anymore? (/r/askscience)
- Matt Mullenweg, cofounder of Wordpress, plugs in to Reddit for an AMA. (/r/IAMA)

Identifying Strategies, Engaging the Latino Community in Disaster Preparedness
New York•New Jersey Preparedness and Emergency Response Learning Center at UAlbany presents free webcast on March 22
A free webcast from UAlbany's School of Public Health focuses on disaster preparedness and the Latino community.
ALBANY, N.Y. (March 21, 2012) -- While more than 50 million U.S. residents identified themselves as Latino in the 2010 U.S. Census, little attention has been paid to the impact of cultural barriers on relief and preparedness efforts. The New York•New Jersey Preparedness and Emergency Response Learning Center at the University at Albany will examine this issue during a free webcast on Thursday, March 22, 2012 from 11 a.m. – noon.
The goal of the webcast is to provide public health and preparedness professionals with the tools needed to identify strategies for assessing the needs of a Latino community, as well as engaging community members in emergency response and preparedness activities. The event will also address culturally sensitive, cross-cultural risk communication methods that incorporate issues of language, trust, literacy and the use of new media.
UAlbany Associate Professor Blanca Ramos and Executive V.P. of La Raza Charles Kamasaki
"The program highlights the importance of engaging the Latino community in preparedness activities," said Edward Waltz, director of NY•NJ PERLC and UAlbany's Center for Public Health Preparedness at the School of Public Health. "Improved responsiveness to cultural considerations can decrease the barriers that put Latinos at increased risk during emergencies."
Keynote speakers include Blanca Ramos, associate professor at UAlbany's School of Social Welfare and a past vice president of the National Association of Social Workers, and Charles Kamasaki, executive vice president of the National Council of La Raza. The speakers will explore cultural constructs and coping mechanisms among Latinos that may influence behavior in preparing for and recovering from a public health disaster.
The project is supported under a cooperative agreement from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The contents of this program do not necessarily represent the official views of the CDC.
