School Meals In Egypt: Big Dreams In Small Villages
By Shereen Nasef
Tamia, FAYOUM -- Aya and Amani attend the informal primary school of Galala Albahria school in the remote Tamia district of Fayoum. The school is part of the governments Girls Education Initiative (GEI) that encourages families to send their daughters to school by bringing schools closer to their forgotten areas.
Ayas mother, Gelnar Shaaban, said that her other six children went to public primary schools but she preferred that Aya joins a GEI school because it is closer to home and she also thinks it is better than public schools.
As for Amani, she might have never been able to get any education if it were not for this government initiative. Amani doesnt have a birth certificate; she does not exist as far as the government is concerned, explains her mother Om Hashem. She would have never been accepted in a public school and this school was the only option.
The two girls are among 180,000 students who attend informal GEI and community primary schools in the poorest and most remote areas of Upper Egypt.
WFP school meals benefit more than 360,000 students and their families in the poorest governorates in southern Egypt and Sinai. WFP school meals projects in Egypt encourage girls education, help dropouts to go back to school and to complete their primary education and combat child labour. Students of the informal primary schools receive a daily nutritious snack fortified with vitamin A and iron which helps fight short-term hunger and provides needed nutrition. In addition, the students take a monthly food ration of 10 kg of rice for their familis if they attend more than 80 percent of the school days. The take-home ration is almost equivalent to the wage a child would earn if sent to work instead of school and is a major incentive for families to send their children regularly to school.
Ayas mother is happy with the take-home ration that eases some of the financial burden on the family. The mother is even keen on learning more about good nutrition and would like to attend WFPs nutrition awareness sessions held at her daughters school.

NIUHuskies.com - NEW YORK - Northern Illinois quarterback Jordan Lynch (Chicago/Mt. Carmel) earned All-America honors from the Associated Press Tuesday as the record-setting and NCAA-leading Huskie quarterback was named to the news organization's second team All-America squad as an all-purpose player. He was also an honorable mention choice on Sports Illustrated's All-America Team at quarterback. Lynch finished the regular season as the nation's leader in rushing (1,771) and total offense (4,753) while leading the Huskies to a 12-1 record, the Mid-American Conference Championship and the Discover Orange Bowl.
Lynch becomes the first Huskie to be honored by the AP since 2006, when Garrett Wolfe earned third team honors at running back. The NIU quarterback is also the first NIU player on the AP's second team since Michael Turner did so in 2003. He is the seventh Huskie to be named on the AP's first, second or third team.
In his first season as a starter, the junior commanded the NIU offense, helping the Huskies to a 12-1 record and the Mid-American Conference's first ever Bowl Championship Series berth,as NIU will meet Florida State in the Discover Orange Bowl on January 1, 2013. Northern Illinois currently owns the nation's longest winning streak (12 games), the longest conference winning streak (17 games) and the longest home-winning streak (21 games).
In his 13 starts, Lynch completed 222-of-353 (62.9%) passes for 2,962 yards with 24 touchdowns and only five interceptions. In the last nine games, he owns a touchdown to interception ratio of 17-2. He is the FBS leader in rushing yards with 1,771 yards on 271 carries with 19 touchdowns. Lynch has rushed for at least 100 yards in 12-of-13 games this year, including a NCAA FBS quarterback record 11-straight games, snapping the old record of five games.
At Ford Field during the MAC Championship game versus No. 18 Kent State, Lynch broke the NCAA FBS record for rushing yards by a quarterback in a season, surpassing the old record held by Michigan's Denard Robinson (1,702). In the 44-37 victory that clinched the Huskies' trip to the BCS, he amassed 372 yards of total offense (212 passing, 160 rushing) and four touchdowns (three rushing).
The performance by Lynch Nov. 30 marked the fourth time this season he reached the 150-yard passing and 150-yard rushing mark in the same game. The feat has been accomplished five times this season by five other quarterbacks, including Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel of Texas A&M, Michigan's Denard Robinson, Ohio State's Braxton Miller and Rice's Taylor McHargue.
With one more rushing touchdown this season, Lynch will become only the fourth quarterback in FBS history to rush and throw for 20-or-more touchdowns in a single season, joining former Heisman Trophy winners Tim Tebow (2006), Cam Newton (2010) and former Nevada quarterback Colin Kaepernick (2010).
For his efforts in 2012, Lynch finished seventh in the final Heisman Trophy voting, marking the highest finish by a Huskie player in the Heisman voting since LeShon Johnson finished sixth in 1993.
Prior to the showdown with the Golden Flashes, the Chicago native was named the Vern Smith Leadership Award winner, given to the MAC's Most Valuable Player as voted by league coaches. Lynch became the sixth Huskie in the last seven seasons to win the Vern Smith Award.
Last week, Lynch was named to CBS Sports' All-America Team as a third team quarterback. The junior is now the first Huskie since Larry English in 2008 to be named to multiple All-America teams.
Aside from the MAC Championship game, Lynch's biggest performance of the year came during NIU's contest with division rival Toledo, when he became the first player in FBS history to pass for over 400 yards and rush for 150 in the same game. He finished the night with 407 yards on 25-of-36 passing and ran for 166 yards on 30 carries in the Huskies' 31-24 win over the Rockets.
No. 15 Northern Illinois and Lynch will meet No. 12 Florida State in the 2013 Discover Orange Bowl on New Year's Day, with a 7:30 p.m. Central kickoff at Sun Life Stadium in Miami Gardens, Fla. on ESPN.

|MLB Career Stats
|23rd in NL
John Mabry is beginning his fourth year as the team's hitting coach after being named to that position on November 5, 2012. He was assistant hitting coach to Mark McGwire during the 2012 campaign. The duo helped guide a Cardinals offense that led the league in 2012 in both runs scored and on-base pct., while finishing a close second in batting average. In 2013, the Cardinals batted .330 with runners in scoring position, the top mark in the majors dating to 1974.
Mabry, 45, was drafted by St. Louis in the sixth round of the June 1991 draft and played 14 seasons in the majors, including three stints with the Cardinals. He made his Major League debut in 1994 and put up some of his best offensive numbers with the Cardinals from 1995 - 1998. He hit a career high .307 in 1995 and during the 1996 season played in a career high 151 games, hitting .297 with a career high 161 hits, collected 13 homers and 74 RBI as the Cardinals advanced to the NLCS. In addition to playing with the Cardinals, his Major League career included playing time with eight Major League teams and ended in 2007 with the Colorado Rockies.
Before joining the Cardinals staff as a coach, Mabry assisted the team in various community relations initiatives, including the team's "Doin' it Right" school program from 2010-2011. A native of Delaware, he graduated in 1988 from Bohemia Manor (Md.) High School where he played football, baseball and basketball; and was drafted out of West Chester (Pa.) University. Mabry was named the Cardinals Rookie of the Year for 1995 by the St. Louis chapter of the BBWAA.

What the First Moviegoers Saw
Great, uncanny early films.
Something about the peril of oncoming vehicles seems to capture how startling motion pictures were when they first appeared. By the early 1890s, of course, people were familiar with still photographs and even with images moving across a flat screen: Huge painted panoramas, unscrolling from one side of a stage to another, gave theater audiences the impression they were seeing a landscape move past a train window. But when films came along, they looked entirely new; they had an immediacy combined with an immateriality that seemed uncanny and perhaps a little disorienting. The novelty of these earliest films, most of which simply offered glimpses of the real world in motion, lasted for about a decade. By 1907, more fictional narratives than documentary scenes were being shot; and by 1915, Charlie Chaplin was using movies to generate a new kind of star power. A show this spring at the Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C., recalledthe astonishment that turn-of-the-century films provoked: The show brought together 60 of these early films—vast natural landscapes, views of city streets, cozy domestic scenes, vaudeville turns and dance numbers—and offered a portrait of the medium in its infancy.

The wrong strategic approach can be costly for ecommerce sites, but many still make some fairly basic errors.
Try to avoid these six common errorss in your ecommerce site to avoid deterring customers and generate more conversions.
As marketers, this is the little world we live in. We live and work on marketing all day long and it hurts to see such sin anywhere on the virtual web. A banner that looks lonesome would make us wonder if the poor thing gets any attention at all.
A shabby looking ecommerce site repels customers but invokes our sympathy. A non-responsive Twitter account or a Facebook page that belongs to an etailer doesn't bruise our ego, it just infuriates us.
In the world of comments feeding off on comments to form conversations, brands making a beeline at social media, and ecommerce sites working on the double to go quick and responsive, there are still plenty of adamant ecommerce stores that don't function as they should.
It's money lost for the ecommerce site owners and precious lessons for us smart marketers wise business owners.
Take a simple case of ecommerce store usability: according to a study by Neilsen Normal Group, the simple 'search' function on ecommerce sites still remains a sore point. Only 51% of users succeed in finding what they want on an ecommerce site.
Here are six common errors to avoid...
Getting the colors wrong
If you have your ecommerce store designed by, well, designers, you ought to get the complete package. You'd not have to think. You'd just have to run the store and profit from it.
Unfortunately, that doesn't happen with some ecommerce sites. If you started off with the wrong foundation on design, what'd you expect anyway? Color psychology is big in design and there's a reason for it: it works.
According to an infographic on the KISSmetrics blog, more than 93% of customers are influenced by the 'visuals' pertaining to the product. More than 85% of shoppers are drawn to products thanks to color.
Brand recognition owes about 80% of its effectiveness due to colors associated with brands.
Poor product descriptions
The written word, for ecommerce sites, is sometimes more important than images (for flat panel TVs, electronic gadgets, etc.) as most customers are aware of how these products look.
In other cases, images rule the roost for T-shirts, apparel, footwear, and accessories.
In all cases where content is important, most ecommerce stores fail to do justice. With product descriptions literally bleeding to touch the 350-word mark and with a font size or type you'd be a genius to read, every word on the page is akin to a dollar lost in potential revenue.
Social bridges: where are they?
While the world is busy straddling the social web, some ecommerce stores are like castaways on remote islands. They are completely disconnected from the world of social media, and that hurts.
For some sites, there's a lack of engagement, conversations, and responses to any comments on products, brand, or the business itself.
The comments drown in disparate communities without the interception of the ecommerce store's managers or owners. No one is listening.
Even Walmart can't pull off ecommerce sales operating off a silo like that. Amazon still focuses heavily on user reviews and popular recommendations. Most successful ecommerce businesses are as social as they can get.
All product pages should have social media buttons. Your business, ecommerce or not, needs real engagement, connections with people, and conversations.
It's not wise to burn bridges. Ever.
Technology pulls you from under the rock. But where are you?
Every aspect of your ecommerce store is technology backing it up or leading it. Sometimes, technology wedges itself in practically every aspect of your business. Heck, the fact you have an ecommerce store is a testimony to technology at work.
The question: just where did the use of technology end and complacency begin? Ecommerce design is facilitated by powerful ecommerce tools or engines backed by supportive, dedicated communities to help businesses start the right way.
NetSuite comes with its own ecommerce engines, tools, and community to aid businesses choosing to run off its platform. Shopify.com has certified web design and development experts.
Marketing, finance, accounting, operations, sales, and pretty much everything else now have technology all over your business strategy.
Today, ecommerce store design means profitability, UX/UI focus determines how customers connect with you, technology is at the core of business, and trends such as gamification bring fun to ecommerce.
Most ecommerce stores have technology until the design or development stage. Beyond that, you'll only find them operating as virtual lemonade stands.
Are you plugged in yet?
Stay low and they'll find us
Staying low is for spies; not for businesses. Marketing is essential to survive in business and ecommerce stores have more at stake than any other Internet-based business model. No one is going to find any website, given that there are millions in the stack.
In fact, as we write, there might be another million or even billion stores coming up. The only way to get business is to commit to a full-scale, full-fledged, and dedicated marketing strategy. With ecommerce, only the medium changed. None of the business principles did.
We now have new ways of doing business: interesting ways to market; engaging platforms such as social media to connect; open gateways for communication; one-to-one forms of engagement using email, etc.
Reaching out and marketing, however, is just as much a need now as it was for the ancient man who'd barter a pot for a pan.
Firing on all cylinders
So, you'd need effective design that simply works, great copy, excellent images or photography, socially connected pages, and a marketing strategy on full-steam. By the time you get to this stage, you'd have too many moving parts. You'd need the right way to do it all.
For marketing, you'd need a multi-pronged approach by managing your campaigns across all channels. Businesses have to focus on smooth operations, social recruiting, online collaboration, web-based accounting, streamlined financial management, and a keen eye out for analytics.
Who said running an ecommerce store was easy? Are you msaking any of these errors?
Comments (15)
I would say the best way to optimize your conversions is no doubt A/B testing and doing more analysis with Psycology in mind. When I was working on a site (http://www.spikepcs.com), I kind of created some plugins to test if those can increase our conversions. Those indeed work and now we have very subtle things that impact the behavior of our users and they do things we love them to do. Would love to talk more if anyone is interested.
Great points Mike.
One of the shortfalls with A/B and Multi-variate testing is that the results only show you what works best for the largest buyer persona group that visits during the time period tested.
Some new companies like Granify (http://granify.com) are able to understand your shoppers on an individual level, by analyzing over 400 data points per second, and contextually overcome their biggest objections to increase conversions. The conversion rate increase using this has been huge for many retailers.
great insight!
all the tips for converting visitors into customers are really good and not just for ecommerce sites but for normal websites too. thanks
thank for sharing about the tips for converting visitors into clients.
these tips are really good and not just for ecommerce sites but for normal websites too. Hope to read more helpful information from you. Have a nice day
In the current market with huge growth in tablet and smartphone ownership, etailers also need to be mindful of the device their customers are using to shop with and make sure that shopping experience is responsive and engaging. "Add to basket" is so 20th century and is not really fit for purpose when shopping on an iPad for instance. The site needs to be optimised by device to give not just great performance but improved usability; we should be swiping goods into our baskets on tablets, not clicking "Add to basket". To see what I mean, take a look at our YouTube channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/iStoneUK).
Getting the basics right is key. However in a time where competition is fierce, businesses need to take things beyond the basics and introduce a data driven culture that focuses on the customer. Taking A/B and MVT testing seriously is now a must for any business wanting to improve their conversion and to understand the pain points.
It might just be me, but (personally speaking) typos are a big speed bump - attention to detail is important and obvious errorss* make me question the credibility of a site I'm browsing.
I can't decide whether the mistakes in this article are deliberate, especially since *the first is a mis-spelling of "errors" - I also quite like the "Nielsen Normal" group, but am not sure Donald Norman would ;-)
I'll confess I stopped reading at that point.
Good point about product descriptions but equally I think poor quality product images are a massive problem even with large stores. If you can't make the product look good on screen, you're not going to inspire visitors to buy it
Oh the irony of spelling errors wrong
Great article, some very useful tips here.
Some good thoughts here, but perhaps the biggest conversion killer on retail websites is still the basic error that prevents would-be purchasers doing something. Links that don't work, missing images etc are still so often found, and the result is a lost sale and an angry customer going elsewhere.
Sitemorse compares the top 500 UK retail websites and top 250 global sites on a quarterly basis, and the latest benchmarks are on the website now (click on my name left to see it).
Retailers do indeed require a marketing strategy and one that needs to fit seamlessly into their online offering. 'Web governance' is a phrase used more and more often and is now a must-have, rather than a nice idea.
Interesting article (minus the spelling typos) but I disagree with the line "All product pages should have social media buttons"
Surely at this stage in the funnel the product page should focus on one call to action, adding the item to basket. Any social sharing buttons take the customer's attention away from the page and you lose the conversion?
I'm not arguing that businesses, "ecommerce or not, need real engagement, connections with people, and conversations" but placement is also very important to conversions. The example above could be better with social sharing post-purchase.
Agreed with John that product images are crucial, and descriptions go a long way as well. Modcloth is one of my favorite sites to share with clients, and I think they're hitting on these points- owning their brand personality through copy & design, surfacing a highly engaged, social community, and having an optimized experience across devices.
Well written tips, but i think the content of website should be so attractive and relevant with people you are targeting. Along with that the presentation of product that includes color, price, packaging and all is vital for conversion.

Top Guidelines for Creating a Paid Sick Leave Policy
It's been known that nationally paid sick leave is growing, and the trend seems to continue. Smart employers have noted that employee productivity is greatly increased when their personnel know that they can take off a certain amount of time they need.
What is a paid sick leave?
An Overview of PTO (Paid Time Off)
Paid sick leave is also known as PTO or Personal Time Off, and basically it's the hours that an employer gives to its employees for sick days, including paid days the employee can take off within a given year.
Companies have been facing the need to create a paid sick-leave guideline. They are discovering that, in fact, by implementing a proper structure, a paid sick leave can mutually benefit the company and the employee, as employees on paid sick leave become more productive upon their return.
Before putting into place their leave policy, an employer should take into consideration their own business needs and when setting guidelines for their employees' sick leave policy, they should determine if it is best to have a single vacation and sick day absence policy, or to custom tailor the time-off per situation and case.
Single PTO verses per Case Policy
It has been recorded that the majority of employees do not use their sick leave and try to save it for the future when they really need it most. Also, policing employees is a hard thing to do, as employees like to have the flexibility to select when they need to take time off from the work they enjoy. Therefore, looking at it from the standpoint of just manpower, if the sick leave policy is done on a per case basis, employees will take less time off, than if the company has an umbrella general policy regarding time off.
The "Ideal Policy" should separate the benefits of the sick paid leave policy by type, all while including:
- A way to track the build-up towards the leave
- A method for employees to ask for an anticipated leave
- The right of the employer to ask for a type of medical documentation
- A procedure to audit the employee and to prevent and discover sick leave abuse
Many companies have been starting to integrate their PTO, vacation and sick leave policies into bundles. Paid leave does not obligate the employer to pay the accrued and unused sick leave when an employee is terminated, although they most probably will have to pay out the accrued vacation time.
It seems that some business lawyers have also advised their clients that un-bundling "leave benefits" may be a better option, since the company will then not have to pay for unnecessary, unused sick and PTO time to the employee they are dismissing. Many companies have been separating the sick leave from the vacation time leave in their guidelines, so they will know exactly how much they will owe their employee when they depart from the company.
Bundled Benefits
What happens to those employees who are used to bundled benefits and want that type of benefit?
The lawyers recommend making it a "clear leave policy" by stating in the guidelines that PTO, vacation and sick leave come out from the same place; the entire company budget. The employee must be notified that every day they use for a sick day leave, they will be deducting that from their paid vacation time. That way they will use their paid sick leave wisely and with more thought put into it.
Absenteeism Abuse
The issue some companies are dealing with more and more is absenteeism taking place in order to simply get a paid day off! That is why it's important for business owners to start requesting their staff for a note from the doctor or be advised of foreseeable sick leaves ahead of time.
- Employees who are thought of abusing the PTO should be monitored and their actions documented.
- Some corporations have started paying sick-leave for part-time and temporary employees.
- Some employers, such as restaurant owners, need not concern themselves too much with abuse of absenteeism, as a "tipped" worker is less likely to call in sick.
Benefits of Paid Sick Leave
Many employers found that employees feel great about their job and themselves if they have better control over their work time. In turn there is less abuse of sick leave; enthusiastic employees who are energetic at work, are pleasant on the job, likable by the customers they serve, and totally beneficial for the companies they work for.
Successful companies integrate the suggestions and feedback from their human resources and staff when coming up with thriving paid sick leaves. Policies and plans that work really well for their firm or corporation are put into place and the workers needs are implemented into the guidelines; it's a win-win for everyone involved.

New York City subway riders may notice they are waiting a little longer for the train today.
Columbus Day marks the first time the MTA has implemented its "minor holiday" schedule.
After studying minor holidays, the agency discovered ridership levels are often less than 75 percent of peak ridership. The reduction in service on these days will be smaller than the reduction in ridership, according to the MTA. This is a pilot program that will see expansion if successful.
The "minor holidays" that will see service reduced are: Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Good Friday, Columbus Day, the Friday after Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve (when it falls on a Monday through Thursday), three weekdays following Christmas and New Years Eve (when it falls on a Monday through Thursday).

I'm walking on behalf of many people including: my grandmother, who was lucky enough to get her breast cancer detected early and has been fine since, and two friends of mine who were not so fortunate--they had double mastectomies. And even less fortunate than my friends was my aunt, who died of this terrible disease. Women's health is a huge concern and issue of mine, and this year I am once again putting my feet towards the cause!
Part of the reason why I got into the Beachbody programs was to help me get into my best shape for the walk. I did my first walk in 2010, and this year will be my third walk. So long as I have legs that work and this disease is still around I plan to continue to do so! I really hope that anyone who is reading my blog will consider assisting me by either donating any amount of money they can spare or will pass along my URL to others. Either way, you are helping me and many others and I thank you for it!
The link to donate is here:
And for those of you who are concerned: The Avon Foundation also does NOT support animal testing. Here's the scoop straight from their FAQ:
Effective Nov. 1, 2001, the policy of the Avon Foundation is that no funds will be used to support breast cancer research projects involving the use of animals. The Avon Foundation limits its research funding to clinical studies, human cell culture, and epidemiologic studies. Avon Foundation funding may not be used to fund studies involving animals. Our guidelines apply only to studies funded by the Avon Foundation and do not impact other research underway at these same institutions.

Delhi: The success of last season's inaugural Indian Grand Prix has convinced organisers they can build both a long-lasting legacy within Formula One and break even on their substantial outlay within "five to seven years".
Jaypee Sports International Ltd (JPSI) raced against time to get the $450 million (278 million pounds) Buddh International Circuit ready for motor racing's most prestigious series last October with the event running smoothly after some early teething problems.
The Herman Tilke-designed 5.14km circuit on the outskirts of Delhi has also landed a four-year contract to host a round of the FIM Superbike World Championship from next year, which the organisers hope will boost the facility's financial viability.
"The commercial proposition is such that you can't hope to recover it in a couple of years," JPSI managing director and chief executive Sameer Gaur told Reuters in an interview.
"You have to look at it from a long-term view. Maybe five to seven years, that's the time when one should be looking at breaking even," he said.
Now that the foundations had been laid, the immediate job at hand, Gaur said, was to develop the circuit into a Formula One village.
"It's time to create some entertainment zones. Fans want a race which would be a three-day picnic. We have to create that facility and we are doing it," Gaur added.
"The proposed underground metro service (scheduled for completion in 2015) would improve transport and there would be more restaurants and hotels too.
"In the next couple of years, we have to create an F1 village there, so that a fan can enjoy the race and the entertainment surrounding it."
World champion Sebastian Vettel triumphed in the inaugural race almost a year ago and Gaur promised an even better experience in the second race on October 28.
"God was very kind, we got a perfect start last year," he said.
"Of course, some finishing touches were missing but everything is in order this year and you won't hear any complaints."
McLaren's Jenson Button finished second last year and was among those who tipped the circuit to become a firm favourite among the drivers.
After witnessing close to 100,000 fans cheering the grand prix staged around the undulating circuit, Gaur said there was no reason for anyone to doubt Button's verdict.
"It should be, it has to, we have to do it," he stressed.
"Jaypee Group is proud of what we have created and we would be disappointed if it does not happen. We have to make this circuit one of the most favourite tracks on the calendar. It won't happen overnight, it's a process.
"We had nothing but positive feedback from the drivers and teams after the race last year.
"Some 95,000 people turned up to cheer them on the race day. We hope fans will come again with the same spirit."

Sentimental Sunday - Are We?
This morning I was preparing a post for the Sentimental Sunday prompt over at GeneaBloggers. All at once an interesting question popped into my head.
Are family historians more sentimental than the general population? Are we? Am I?
To answer this question we need to find the exact meaning of the word. I proceeded to search Merriam-Webster website and found interesting results.
a : marked or governed by feeling, sensibility, or emotional idealism
b : resulting from feeling rather than reason or thought <a sentimental attachment > <a sentimental favorite>
*He has a sentimental attachment to his old high school
What would you say about traveling hundreds of miles to visit an ancestral home or graveyard? I remember the feeling of instant connection when seeing my great-grandparents home. Also, the sense of comfort when strolling along the path in any cemetery. Does this make me sentimental or slightly crazy?
*She saved her wedding gown for sentimental reasons
Do we really need to talk about saving items of sentimental value? Cabinets, plastic containers, notebooks, bookcases and trunks full of things someone just MIGHT want someday. Taking inventory of our home you would discover most of what I own can be traced to an ancestor. Pack rat or sentimental lady?
*He has sentimental ideas about the past
Guilty! Most of our time as family historians is spent in the past. Meeting and connecting to people who have long since departed this life. Many times we are drawn into their world and may even have a somewhat romanticized view. No doubt many of our ancestors lives were difficult and filled with hardships. Even so, would we not love to time-travel back for one day and spend time walking in their lives? Oops, think I crossed from sentimental to sci-fi wacky!
*I tend to get very sentimental when I think of my childhood
Not necessarily my childhood but that of my parents, grand-parents, great-grand-parents and so forth. I can spend hours reading about the early life of any ancestor. Discovering where they went to school, what occupation they chose and how events shaped their lives. You have to give me a resounding sentimental on this one!
From the answers it looks like I am indeed very sentimental. That is a large part of being the family historian. Without the ingrained desire to preserve memories and heirlooms much of our family history would disappear.
Thank goodness along with being curious and tenacious we are extremely sentimental.
Been a sort of chicken/egg discussion happening. Are family researchers inherently sentimental or do they become so after connecting with an ancestor? What say you?
7 comments:
As we delve into our ancestors lives they become "real" people,, just not names on a paper. We know where they were from, where they worked and the history of the towns where they lived.ReplyDelete
With this information we do become sentimental about them.
Interesting observation.ReplyDelete
Are we inherently sentimental as researchers or does the sentimentality come once we connect with our ancestors?
Sort of like the chicken and egg question.
Could be an interesting post in itself! Thanks for the comment.
Honestly, Deb, the way your mind works! I love it!ReplyDelete
Speaking for myself, I become sentimental about almost anything that matters to me in some way. Hence the pack rat state of my home.
It is a chicken-egg thing, but I think the family historians have a different view and appreciation of life to begin with; that's why they become the legend-keepers.
What a beautifully worded post. To answer your chicken-egg question, as for me I am only sentimental about the things I love. The more I find out about my deceased relatives, the more I love them, and the more sentimental I become about them. I don't think I was particularly sentimental before I started collecting my dead relatives, or perhaps I just didn't have as much to be sentimental about. Hmmm...more chicken-egg?ReplyDelete
I've never considered myself as being inherently sentimental, but when reading this post, I need to reevaluate my ISTJ personality results. I not only get attached to my own family, but I have an attachment to the ancestor's of my clients. The more I delve in the lives of ancestor's the more their significance is illuminated. Then, I just want to chase that light to the end. Yeah...I'm sentimental! Who am I fooling?ReplyDelete
Love the post.I plead guilty. Which reminds me I have a post to make. :-)ReplyDelete
Talk about hitting the nail on the head. I think those of us that are sentimental get even more so when we delve into our ancestors lives. It makes us feel whole, and connected to something bigger than ourselves. Love this post.ReplyDelete

100 HMV shops may go in restructure
HMV's administrators are reportedly planning to shut up to 100 of the music chain's shops as part of plans to restructure the business.
Deloitte is set to announce the closure of between 60 and 100 shops this week, which could see 1,500 jobs axed, according to The Sunday Telegraph.
But under the plans, which would leave HMV with between 120 and 160 shops, the doors would not be closed until the stores have run out of stock.
HMV went into administration last month, putting more than 4,120 jobs and 223 stores at risk, but hopes of a rescue deal have been raised after restructuring firm Hilco - the group behind HMV Canada - bought the company's debt.
It is thought that Hilco was planning to begin negotiations with suppliers and HMV's landlords last week as part of a plan to salvage the group.
Hilco reportedly wants to rescue about half of the stores in the UK as it looks to repeat the strategy that has seen it turn around HMV's Canadian arm, which it bought in 2011.
Deloitte declined to comment.
Deloitte has already cut 60 jobs at HMV and last week staff used the company's official Twitter account to announce their own "mass execution" as administrators axed nearly 190 jobs. Workers tweeted live about redundancies being made across HMV's offices and distribution centres.
The store closures come amid the high-profile collapses of camera chain Jessops and DVD and game rental business Blockbuster last month.
Administrators closed all of Jessops' 187 stores after it collapsed into administration, but it has emerged that supermarket giant Morrisons has acquired seven leasehold properties - including four in London, two elsewhere in England and one in Scotland - which it plans to turn into convenience stores. On Friday Jessops was snapped up by a group of buyers that includes Dragon's Den star Peter Jones.

Workers' Compensation Medical Issues
Workers' compensation medical issues include treatment protocols, guides and guidelines, integrated care, pharmacy, fee schedules, physician reports, medical access, and quality-of-care measurements. Quality-of-care measurements assess medical outcomes in terms of physical recovery and patient satisfaction. Medical treatment also covers issues of costs to the payer, as well as costs to the system.

YouTube Taking Down Public Domain Works?
from the make-it-stop dept
The first story comes to us from two self-described "hippies," Haint and Littia, who had put up a video showing some of Haint's works, and used as background music a song by a group called the Psalters, who put their entire album into the public domain so that anyone could do what they wanted with it -- such as using it for background music in a video. However, music licensing company Rumblefish, supposedly uploaded its catalog into YouTube's content ID system -- and apparently (and I'm still trying to figure out how, because no one seems to have a good explanation), the Psalters song is somehow in Rumblefish's catalog. Hence, YouTube took down the video. Apparently others have also been finding their perfectly legal and licensed content taken down thanks to Rumblefish as well, and were told that they needed to call and get Rumblefish's permission to get the content back up.
Haint and Littia note that they can't issue a counternotice, because Rumblefish never sent a DMCA notice which they can counter (Update: to clarify, as explained in the next sentence, they can dispute, but that's slightly different than countering the DMCA notice, and comes with its own problems). The "takedown" was triggered by the content ID match, which still makes things a bit tricky, since "disputing" such things could potentially lead to a lawsuit, so there's a bit of a chilling effect in disputing a content ID match. Poking a big company with a stick where they can turn around and file a lawsuit is a bit scary -- even if you know you're in the legal right.
While looking into that story, reader Stephen Pate sent over his own story of having his entire YouTube account suspended. He's not entirely sure why, but believes it has something to do with video he posted of the recent "crash on the moon." The video was taken directly from NASA's live broadcast, which NASA makes clear is not covered by copyright.
But... along came everyone's favorite news organization, the Associated Press, and claimed the video was their copyrighted material. Nice of them. Due to at least one other similar incident, Pate's entire account was shut down, and to make matters worse, this apparently happened at about the same time that YouTube switched emails to gmail logins, leading Google to claim that it can't match his email to the email of the account in question.
I'm sure Google and YouTube are trying their best, within the confines of copyright law and various lawsuits, to handle such situations, but it seems like things are a mess -- and more and more users are finding that even if they have what appears to be perfectly legal content, they may face takedowns and even loss of their entire account, with limited avenues for recourse.

Councillor - Holgate
York is an amazing place to live and work and I am proud to be the Labour Parliamentary Candidate for York Outer.
I believe York Outer needs an MP who will stand up for local people and I also believe that an MP should be rooted in the communities they represent, informed by life experience and not through who their parents were.
I work in Adult Social Care in services, supporting adults with a learning disability. I know how the services that people rely on to live an independent life are under increasing pressure as a result of the Conservative and LibDem government cuts.
As a City of York councillor I have campaigned successfully for more flood defences in my ward, taking the campaign to Downing Street, after the Tory government put the funding under threat.
I have seen first-hand the effects of cruel welfare changes, such as the bedroom tax, are hitting people in our city and its villages hard. I have spoken out about their impact on people in York. The only way to prevent this from continuing is to change the national government, which has motivated me to stand down from the council and stand for parliament.
I have enjoyed meeting residents in the campaign so far and look forward to talking to as many people as I can before the general election.
Please get in touch to let me know your views.

What is this?
The condition and action scripts are bits of code used by the game to handle more complicated mechanics than can be expressed by just providing components and results.
The condition script adds restrictions on when a recipe can be crafted. If the expression in the condition evaluates to false, the recipe isn't available.
The action script allows the recipe to handle more complex inputs and outputs. For example, it's used when combining stacks of items to allow stacks of any sizes to be merged together.
