From websites and online stores to easy customer support, the internet is a platform for connecting with those who want to make a purchase. Even in situations where a business is not using the internet to actively reach out to potential customers, it is still an important tool in communication between employees and transferring information. If you own a business in Indore, WV, then having a good internet connect is a must. Having the internet makes it possible for you to advertise, draw potential customers to your website, gain feedback, and maintain a relationship with those who have used your products in the past. You can use MyRatePlan to help you discover the Indore, WV business internet service provider who will best meet your specific business needs.
What Types of Business ISPs Are Available in Indore, WV?
Anyone who has been around for the last couple decades has seen how much the internet has advanced, and it's continuing to do that every year. That also means that if a business has been using the same internet service year after year, it may be missing out on some excellent upgrade options. Every business internet option in Indore, WV does have its own specific limitations, and one of those limitations are distribution networks. That's why businesses need to check out the options that are available in their areas before they make any decisions. There are a few common types of internet, and they are cable, DSL, fiber optic, T1, satellite and fixed wireless.
Business ISPs in Indore, WV almost always offer much more than just internet. Other services they typically offer include business phone lines, web hosting and email accounts. It's smart for a business to look for a full bundle package that includes all the services it needs, because these bundles come at a significant savings, compared to buying all those services separately. ISPs also offer service packages, providing businesses with support and assistance with getting their internet service set up. This is another excellent way for a business to save money, because they'll get to use the ISP's service experts instead of needing to spend money hiring their own. The result is decreased operation costs.
One way ISPs provide support to businesses is through consultative services. This type of service is when one of the ISP's experts goes to the business's office and checks out its current setup. The expert can then make some suggestions on ways the business can get more efficient performance, such as making upgrades to old hardware. The expert will also be able to determine how much bandwidth a business is going to need based on how many employees and different devices are at the office. When the expert is there, they can also explain other options and features the business may have available, such as remote device management.
Key Factors to Research with Business Internet Service in Indore, WV
When crucial data takes hours to upload or download, it is not only frustrating to employees but it can be detrimental to the success of the company. Selecting lower speeds as a way to save money can end up hurting the business. Purchasing business internet service in Indore, WV should not be based on minimum requirements. Business internet needs to accommodate peak hours, multiple devices, advancements in technology, and future growth.
When researching different internet bandwidths and speeds, it is necessary to consider bandwidth caps and throttling. Another important aspect to determine is if the ISP restricts the download rates during certain times of the day. Inquire about any potential factors that may limit convenience and capabilities (these can sometimes be found in the fine print).
Companies in Indore, WV should also be hesitant of internet providers that offer little to no security measures. Experienced ISP firms utilized a host of protective measures such as anti-malware, anti-spam, anti-virus, and anti-spyware protection. Ensure that the internet provider provides the details of the amount of protection offered.
Additionally, it is important to inquire how they plan to cover any mobile devices that utilize the system. Also, a good provider will have precise backup systems in place in the event of a crash. A backup located at the place of work may need to be moved to a cloud-based system.
Choosing the Right Business Internet Plan in Indore, WV
While every ISP has support available, the standard amount isn't sufficient for businesses that rely on the internet to conduct business. Any downtime for these types of businesses can result in a huge loss of sales and productivity. Those Indore, WV businesses should make sure that their ISP has a Service Level Agreement, which guarantees a set amount of uptime. In the event that the ISP doesn't meet this guarantee, it provides a remedy, with the usual remedy being a bill credit.
The business should also look into what phone support options the ISP has, and specifically that it has support phone lines specifically for assisting its business customers. Besides that, the business must also research how effective the ISP's tech support is when it comes to resolving problems.
Looking at what has worked for other businesses in the past is a smart way to choose an internet service plan. With MyRatePlan, Indore, WV businesses can compare internet plan options in their areas by punching in their ZIP code. This is an easy way to check if there are any new service options available, so a business can make sure that it's not settling for less serviced than it should be getting.
Often Overlooked Factors Regarding Business Internet
Depending on the physical location of a business, the ISP choices may be scarce. Regardless of the available options, a careful review is still necessary to ensure business owners get the best service for the money - now and in the future. Considering that devices have more online capabilities today than in the past, all business internet service providers in Indore, WV should be prepared for industry-wide developments by tweaking their services in response to upcoming changes and advancements in internet technology.
The IPv6, or internet protocol version six, is one future internet development that will replace the IPv4, or internet protocol version four, because IPv6 has a limitless number of IP addresses. Once the implementation of IPv6 occurs, every device will have its own IP address. In turn, the internet will be more easy to configure and businesses will spend less money for the ability to get online. Therefore, when business owners look for an ISP, they need to keep future internet developments in mind. With just one search inquiry at MyRatePlan, owners can substantially lower expenditures while enhancing operational capabilities.

This sponge fleece hoodie will be your best friend on all your cool summer nights and winter days.

The design is a circular midnight mountainscape applied with rugged-black ink on a marbled grey or red-orange fabric. 85% combed and ring-spun cotton, 15% poly.

We will send an email, Facebook Messenger or Webpush when product available. Your email address will not be shared with anyone else.

I know therefore I am.
I choose to believe therefore I know. When we acknowledge the existence of a possibility, we gain knowledge and thus we understand more.
I don't possess the practical knowledge of a scientist however I know to ask the question and not to believe all that is stated as fact. The strongest most obstinate question in any language is "What if?"
What if what we believe as the least possible is the reality that persists? Science tells us there is a finite limit to the universe based on a calculation of visible mass. Yet there is always a persistent and unanswerable question of 'what if?'
Similar questions should be persistent when considering climate change. Climate change is real, and no matter which theory is considered it remains and threatens us all. My what if question is 'what if climate change is due to earth shift?' Acceptance of earth shift is becoming more prevalent in science today as studies have shown the shifting of earth's axis is measurable and will eventually tip the world to a new axial point. This earth shift could be the cause of climate change with polar melts, rising seas, varying temperatures, storms, etc…
Consider the possibility that with the axis shifting the existing movement of winds around the planet will be altering direction leading to confrontations. Polar ice melts as it shifts to a new location and will eventually reform at the new location.

Indiana Office of Environmental Adjudication Rules Preventative Maintenance Plans Required for Emission Units
By Jennifer Thompson, Attorney, Bingham Greenebaum Doll LLP
On December 9, 2003 Nucor Steel Corporation ("Nucor') filed its objections to Prevention of Significant Deterioration ("PSD") and Part 70 Significant Source Modification ("SSM") No. 107-16823-00038 regarding modifications to its steel mini mill located in Crawfordsville with the Indiana Office of Environmental Adjudication ("OEA"). Additionally, on May 12, 2006 Nucor filed objections to the issuance of PSD and Part 70 SSM No. 107-21359-00038 with the OEA. These two permit appeals were consolidated. Central to the appeal was Nucor's contention that IDEM incorrectly required preventative maintenance plans ("PMPs") for emission units, rather than requiring PMPs only for the emission control devices at Nucor's facility. Prior to 2002 no permit issued to Nucor had required a PMP for an emission unit.
Nucor moved for partial summary judgment on the issue of whether PMPs can be required for emission units, rather than only for emission control devices at its facility. In response to Nucor's motion, Environmental Law Judge Catherine Gibbs entered Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law concluding "[t]he first sentence of this section [326 IAC 1-6-3] clearly states that the owner or operator of a facility shall have a preventive maintenance plan" and goes on to hold that 326 IAC 1-6-3 authorizes IDEM to require PMPs for emission units in addition to emission control units. Judge Gibbs, citing to Indiana Rule of Trial Procedure 56(B), then granted summary judgment in favor of the IDEM.
Although Judge Gibbs concluded "that 326 IAC 1-6-3 authorizes IDEM to require PMPs for emission units in addition to emission control units," her analysis did not address the apparent inconsistency between 326 IAC 1-6-3(a) and (b). The specific wording of 326 IAC 1-6-3(a) commands that a permittee shall prepare and maintain a preventative maintenance plan. While, 326 IAC 1-6-3(b), on the other hand appears to be discretionary where it states: "As deemed necessary by the commissioner, any person operating a facility shall comply with the requirements of subsection (a) of this section." If 326 IAC 1-6-3(a) requires all facilities to have a PMP for both emission units and their control devices, the decision is not only a departure from IDEM's current policy of not requiring PMPs for all emission units but also raises a question as to whether IDEM has been including all applicable requirements in Title V Permits.
Because Judge Gibbs' order does not resolve all of the issues in Nucor's appeal, we must await her Final Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law to see whether or how the inconsistency between 326 IAC 1-6-3(a) and (b) is addressed. Nucor's appeal is docketed under Cause Nos. 03-A-J-3253 and 06-A-J-3716.

North Dakota Department of Health warns residents about wildfire smoke
BISMARCK – The North Dakota Department of Health (NDDoH) urges residents, especially those with respiratory conditions, to consider limiting prolonged outdoor activities while smoky conditions remain across North Dakota.
Wildfires along the West Coast and in Montana, Idaho and Canada are sending smoke across the state. Particulate matter consists of extremely small particles of ashes and soot found in the air.
Particulate matter can be irritating to the respiratory system, especially for those who suffer from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or conditions such as asthma and allergies. The NDDoH advises people with respiratory conditions, the elderly and young children to limit prolonged outdoor exposure. People reacting to smoke to the extent that it is affecting breathing should seek immediate help from a medical provider.
Except for northeastern North Dakota, ground-level particulate concentrations are currently decreasing in the state. However, satellite imagery and fire conditions show increased transportation of particulates in the upper atmosphere. Elevated particulate numbers may become a concern as upper atmospheric conditions change.
For up-to-date information on the region's current air quality and tips on respiratory protection during a smoke event, visit https://deq.nd.gov/AQ/monitoring/Wildfire.aspx.

151 SEO Glossary List for 2017
There are times when we come across a particular term while reading about SEO and then end up Googling about SEO Glossary or SEO Definitions.
SEO best practice keeps changing and evolving – something a comprehensive glossary should reflect.
This made me write this article on SEO Glossary.

Though there are already some SEO glossary published online, however, even the most comprehensive of them fail to cover the latest additions to SEO glossary.
I thought it would be a novel idea to write an SEO glossary which is up to date and more relevant to the modern SEO marketers in 2017.
If I've missed anything important or if any new terms come along post writing that would be worth adding, please drop me a note about it.

Chances are if you're a casino fan you've tried traditional slots at least once in your life. However, with the emergence of online casinos there is no longer a need to drive to the casino to enjoy your favorite slot games. Video slots online offer players the option of playing new and traditional slots from the comfort of their home or office.
Video slots are actually nothing more than a computer game, set up as a slot. Many of them include thrilling bonus features, interactive scenarios, music and outstanding graphics. Video slots online offer players the chance to experience an interactive slot playing experience from anywhere!
The main difference between video slots and traditional slots is the fact land based slots are essentially operated by a traditional machine design and video slots are built with computer software and graphics. However, there are more differences to explore when comparing the two.
Video slots almost always come with many paylines. While land based casino slots are offered in multi-line styles, it's more likely players will feel comfortable playing multi-line video slots than multi-line traditional slots. Video slots can feature paylines that fall horizontally, diagonally, or even zigzagged. The more lines a player can play, the more they have a chance of winning and winning big!
Unlike traditional pull-lever slots, video slots are much more interactive in most cases. They can offer free spin features, bonus rounds and even wild symbols. With the video slots being more interactive, players can feel as if they have more control over their playing options. Video slots can be found offering various coin sizes, starting with one cent.
When you're ready to try your luck at video slots, there are quite a few online casinos to choose from. But, US players most often head to popular casinos like Bovada Casino. Bovada offers players video slots, sports betting, various poker choices and more. They completely welcome US players and offer many bonus options for new and old players.
If you're impressed with casinos who offer hefty new player bonuses, Lincoln Casino and its new player bonus of $5000 will get you interested quickly. All new players are given a 100% match bonus on their first 5 deposits. This free casino money can go a long way at Lincoln Casino!

Quynh Nguyen '09 (Vietnam), PhD at Aarhus University
I am Quynh Nguyen from Vietnam. I studied Environmental Chemistry at the University of New South Wales, Australia and worked as a technical advisor on improving institutional capacity for water pollution control at Vietnam Environment Protection Agency before joining MESPOM in 2007.
The two-year-journey has been full of great experiences and memories during which I have lived and learnt so much more intensively than ever before. The programme has indeed provided me with in-depth scientific research opportunities (from my 3rd semester and my thesis research in Manchester) in addition to the holistic approach which brings a broader and comprehensive mindset in understanding and handling any specific task in the field.
I have recently started my PhD on a joint project between the National Environmental Research Institute (NERI) and Department of Chemistry of Aarhus University, Denmark. My research work involves secondary organic aerosols, which are one of the most serious and complicated air pollution problems and have great impacts on human health and climate. The project should contribute to the understanding and assessment of present and future particle pollution and the formulation of a policy for efficient pollution reduction.
My new life on the land of Andersen's fairy tales, bikes, wind and windmills has been very amazing so far, which hopefully will be another exciting journey after MESPOM.

You, humans, intrigue me
You act as if you live in Quetelet
but your world is much more like Mandelbrot
True, there's no giants around the corner

I am trying to figure out a way to have a badge of some sort on their profile page and/or a ribbon on their avatar on the different subscription levels.
So, if someone is a lifetime member they would have some way to be recognized as such in the forum.
Any suggestions?

Bayern Munich striker Sandro Wagner insists he's happy to be back playing for the Bundesliga champions.
The German signed a two-year deal with Bayern at the beginning of this month, having left the club for MSV Duisburg 10 years ago. He knew full well that competition for places would be tough, but decided to leave Hoffenheim anyway, and even hopes that Robert Lewandowski will stick around.
"I'm happy with my decision to join Bayern even though I knew it would be difficult to get much playing time," Wagner said in an interview Abendzeitung.
"I certainly hope Lewy will stay at Bayern and remain fit, he is very important to us and also a very nice guy. It's always fun with him."
With the next World Cup just around the corner, the 30-year-old is hoping to have a spot on the plane to Russia and really fancies his chances as a result of Bayern's profile.

"Joshua Kimmich started for Germany at Euro 2016 even though he wasn't a regular starter for Bayern," Wagner explained. "This just shows the incredibly high level at FC Bayern"
"If I stay healthy, I'm very optimistic that Joachim Low will take me to Russia, I get along really well with the boys in the DFB team and played an important role at the Confed Cup, even though I did not always play.
"My chances are better than ever, otherwise I could have stayed in Hoffenheim or changed to another club - there were plenty of requests in winter."

The sun glistens off the side of the Rokh as she slowly glides through space towards the station orbiting Amarr. This has been the end of a long journey, you had to go through the fire and brimstone of hell, but yet you made it in one piece. Those bastards who said I could not get her to Stain were right when they said it would be tough, they were also right when they said you would be rich.
The ship glides to a stop as the station's docking computer takes over control of the "Saturn". Before you are even ready to exit your pod the request is sent to your computer… "They†are ready for you in the meeting hall, they are anxious to hear about the journey and the status of the mission that you are on.
Manasi wondered if Janelle's parents would enjoy meeting him or what the meeting might entail. Though much changed with Jenelle as time with her has moved forward, he was still somewhat nervous about meeting Jenell's parents. The trip to Tash Murkon Prime was slow as he wanted to drive the clone he was in all the way back to a more 'permanet' settlement. When Jenelle's mother and father learned of this they told Manasi that they had a small facility on Tash-Murkon Prime, but they would meet him in Amarr as they wanted the facility to be a secret.
Manasi had picked the "Saturn" for her durability and firepower. Opting for very Short range blasters, and a full complement of Anti-matter ammo, 2 flights of medium scout drones and tackling gear he had been prepared. The 'Saturn' was sitting on very high shield resists and an active armor tank, just for the survivability of this clone, so he had to be careful.
The last gate coming out of 0.0 to low sec was the 'nasty' as they come. Goonswarm was camping the gate and had almost dropped a bubble on the gate when he had hurridly jumped to 0 on it. Immediately a Warp Interdiction bubble had popped on the inbound side of the gate. Manasi did not worry about that as he jumped through he wondered what the other side would hold. Seconds ticked by while he remained cloaked…then the inbound indicator of shiips incoming spiked.30.. 40… 50… all looking like they were heading to the gate and sure enough at the 23 second mark 40 warped in to the gate he was still cloaked at. Bubbles popped up and Manasi aligned and cloaked for the next gate. 8 jumps to 0.5 system. By far the most dangerous part of the trip was the low sec run although this was the single most dangerous point.
as he aligned slowly…ever so slowly….. he realized that providence was with him…there was a big fight at the gate and as long as his speed held he could slide out while aligning to close planet.he was fully aligned and dropped his cloak, and punched it…6 seconds later as locks were resolving he slipped away.
Arriving at The gate he realigned towards the next gate and set it to automatically warp when he hit 75% speed. The Rokh suffered not a scratch as others were more interested in different targets. Manasi met Jenelle's parents on the hangar deck, as they walked back aboard Manasi relayed all this to Jenell's parents and then calmy asked is there anything you need for me to tell your daughter?
"Chief of the boat" intoned Manasi to his wrist, jeff replied "Sir?". "Make way to Amarr coordinates and all relays through Mr. Forsythe coms", said Manasi
"Aye Aye sir, all ready to roll on your order.."said Jeff.
"The order will be handled by Mr. Forsythe temporay designation Alpha sub 1"
Manasi approached Jenelle's Father ,"make sure nothing dings up my ship will ya?"
Mr. Forsythe gaped, stammering " I've never commanded a Rokh before…."
Manasi wispered "don't worry you just get to be navigator, and this way it stays classified."
In his quarters Manasi offered his guests anything they woudl like to eator drink, both were very kind and some small talk was made. Then, Jenelle's father came to him and asked him sternly, "You're protecting her aren't you?, How do you know if she is safe when you ahve just made 71 jumps?" Manasi said to him, "if I am shot down I will end up where she is even if I pull the plug myself I'll wake up near where she is staying, and yes I watch out to make sure she is 'safe'.
Mr. Forsythe relaxed and said, "Your a good man sir please see that no harm comes to our daughter she has been through much…. and tell her to visit us more often." Manasi replied, "I will certaily do that sir." Jenelle's mother came over to him and hugged him as hard as she could kissed him on the cheeck and said pass those on to my daughter if you could 'Mr. mule', Manasi laughed she knew more than she let on this Amarr Genetic scientist thats for sure.
After installing his clone, Manasi smiled to Mr and Mrs. Forsythe. "I will see you soon ok? If you need me send a message, The chief of the boat will stay till he makes sure you're safe then he will scrub the logs. I'll pass on the messages and take care of your daughter… Take care for now."
He blinked and Jenelle was smiling at him. "Uneventfull?" she asked, after he showered, "smooth as silk.." He smiled " It was a long trip."
One Response to "Been a long way back home."
Very enjoyable read. Keep up the good work!

OpenCon was this past weekend (Nov. 11 – 14) in Washington, DC. I was (and still am) honored to have been selected as one of ~200 attendees. Before I get into my reflections on the conference, I want to extend a huge thank you to Nicole Allen, Nick Shockey, all of the volunteers on the planning committee, SPARC, and all other sponsors. The sponsorship provided by many public and private organizations makes OpenCon what it is.
What is OpenCon?
OpenCon is a conference held yearly in different cities around the world. To date, it's been in Washington, DC twice and Brussels once. The in-person conference is relatively small, consisting of ~200 attendees from all over the world. The application process itself is not difficult, but they did receive ~10,000 applications for less than 200 slots this year. I believe that speaks to their success in being an open and inviting place for anyone trying to improve the state of open access (broadly defined). In addition to the in-person conference, they live stream every presentation, and try to live stream as much of the other work (unconferences and even receptions) as possible. In addition (yet again) to the live streaming, they organize OpenCon satellite events in major metro areas to build local relationships and networks in Open Access.
On Diversity
OpenCon is a very diverse gathering. Because it focuses on many flavors of Open Access, there are a wide range people there, including researchers, librarians, administrators, etc. Obviously, everyone has their niche interest, but hearing what other people are doing outside of my niche interest (open data in academia) was really useful.
A unique part of OpenCon is their model for providing scholarships to people that cannot otherwise afford the full cost of travel and conference fees. Other conferences provide scholarships, but I get the feeling that OpenCon provides a lot of scholarships comparatively. I was the recipient of a scholarship for the conference fee ($300 to attend) and I am very grateful for that. As a 100% self-funded attendee, the $300 outlay would have been painful. It was very interesting to talk to people from all over the world who are working on Open Access. I found it tiring to slow my normal English speaking pace down by half a beat (I talk fast :-/), so I can't imagine how exhausting it was for so many people to spend an entire weekend speaking and learning in a non-native language.
Which leads me to my next point: we spoke a lot during the conference about diversity and barriers to access. That the conference is held in English is definitely a barrier to access, but I don't know of a more "inclusive" way to conduct the conference. One attendee (Iara Vidal) was providing Portuguese language summaries of what was going on, which I think was great. I never really focused much on the intersectionality of class, race, and open access before this conference, and I am definitely better off for the conversations we had around institutional changes that need to happen as a part of open access.
One thing that was somewhat disappointing was the criticism that OpenCon got for having their first 3 speakers as white men. While I respect that viewpoint, I will note that the speakers (in order) were the head organizer of the conference, a representative of the key funder of the conference (Max Planck Society), and the keynote speaker (Brewster Kahle). And while the argument could be made that a more diverse keynote speaker could have been invited, I think that Brewster Kahle was a very deserving person to keynote a conference on Open Access (not to mention that his speech itself was interesting). As time goes on, I'm sure keynote speakers will continue to be diverse choices.
At all points, it seemed as if the organizers and attendees were all very committed to self-critical openness. And while there were some viewpoints I disagreed with, I was thankful for many other conversations that helped me grow in this community (especially April Hathcock's comments in 2 panels).
I hope that I will be a better ally and advocate for openness as it relates to equality and justice in the future. My work, in particular, rests at an intersection between the open research data and civic tech movements. There has been a lot of conversation in civic tech about "techno-determinist" solutions to problems; i.e. technology is a hammer, so every problem in society looks like a nail. It's a conversation I haven't engaged with heavily because I don't think I have much to add, but I think that critical self-awareness is finally coming to open government and civic tech, and I think that a lot of what was discussed at OpenCon would greatly affect that conversation. Perhaps next year there will be more open government people at the conference in addition to early career researchers and librarians. That community could certainly use the help and the OpenCon community can learn from open government's considerable successes.
On The Program
By way of flowing one idea into another, I will note that diversity was a big part of the official and unofficial program at OpenCon. I'm very aware that openness can still serve to reinforce current power structures, and that we need to be ensure that the work we're doing does, in fact, actually serve to level the playing field in research, government, and education. Again, these were not dots that I had really connected before this conference. And, uncomfortable as it is, I'm doing my best to square some of what was discussed at OpenCon with the way that I viewed the world beforehand.
The official program at OpenCon was inspiring. Much of the first full day was devoted to listening to program/project updates by OpenCon alums and other people in the open community. And while everyone was doing a lot of neat stuff, I think that a full day of sitting in chairs and listening to lectures was pretty draining. I would have liked to see more of the quick lightning talks (2 minutes on a wide range of projects), even if that meant fewer of the longer successful project presentations.
I was also somewhat disappointed by the time we had to do discussion/moving ideas forward/work on our interests with like-minded people. The unconferences were really good for that because people were able to divide up into things that were interesting to them and have discussions around those things. I would have liked to have that format be a larger part of the conference. Similarly, while I do like the unconference format, if there were more planned breakout sessions around common topics of shared interest first, I think that the unconference sessions would be much more productive. As it was, most of the unconferences that I went to spent time going through basics of the topic and there wasn't enough time to brainstorm strong ideas. Or perhaps I just wanted more time for that in general. Balancing learning sessions that allow people to focus on their specific interest with making sure that people have a broad view of what is happening in the whole open community is difficult. There's also a difficult balance to strike between learning and doing at a conference. But I would like to have seen the balance be a bit more towards specific interest and doing (or at least discussing doing).
Flexibility, I believe, was a big part of the organizing committee's ethos. And I did like that. The conference was able to change and adjust as important issues came up that deserved billing on the schedule. What was unfortunate was the we didn't have any idea what the broad schedule was going to be until just a few days before the event (and there were times that well planned parts of the conference were unknown to individual participants until just before the event). I do wish there was better/more open communication around the schedule as it was happening from the organizing committee.
On Advocacy Day
The final day of the conference is "Advocacy day" where groups of attendees go out to various federal agencies and/or legislators' offices to educate and advocate for "Open Access" broadly. Some people we met with had no prior background around open access anything at all, and the goal was simply to educate. I think for those types of people, advocacy day is an amazing opportunity for the OpenCon community to raise awareness of the issues.
Some of the people we met with were already experts in the issues surrounding open access. For those people, we were tasked with making specific "asks" of the person for a policy change or improvement. I think that in the cases where the OpenCon members were asked to talk to experts and make specific asks, we were caught slightly unaware. The people that go to OpenCon tend to have a strong understanding of open access, but that's not the same as having a good view of a specific organization's open access policy, their current initiatives, and specific policy proposals that could make sense. And I think that giving groups a few hours to become experts on people and organizations is not fair. So that could mean revealing who is placed in which advocacy sessions earlier than the day of the meeting, or it could mean making sure that there are strong dossiers on the people and organizations. Being conscious of the already large amount of work that the organizing committee puts in and trying to avoid piling on more work, I think letting groups know who they're going to advocate to earlier in the process is the most reasonable change.
Another change I'd like to see on the advocacy day is around how attendees are matched with organizations. Ostensibly, the organizing committee matches attendees with people/organizations relevant to them. And while I have no doubt they worked very hard to do just that, I think they missed the mark for many people. For example, I was paired with the National Institutes of Health to talk about the NIH open access policy. Unfortunately, I've never had any special interest in the NIH or medical research. And while we wound up talking about pre-prints in the grant evaluation process, which is a good topic and important, my work has been focused on open data. We were a very large group, so it worked out fine that I didn't need to carry a conversation. At the same time, I currently live in Massachusetts and my Senator was one of the advocacy meetings; I was not invited to that. I'd like to see future participants be allowed to give some input on where they're assigned to advocate (perhaps a ranked voting system would be appropriate). This could ensure that people are advocating for things they're passionate about to people they're passionate about.
Overall Impressions
I've just spent the better part of 2 typed pages suggesting changes to OpenCon. But that doesn't mean that it was a bad experience; in fact, it was an amazing experience in many ways. Randy Pausch, in his Last Lecture, tells a story about a football coach riding him hard during practice; criticizing him constantly. And the assistant coach telling Randy that, rather than being angry about the constant criticism, he should be concerned when the coach stops criticizing him, because that's when they've given up on him. My thoughts and criticisms come from a place of true belief in the spirit, mission, and work of OpenCon, and a genuine confidence that the organizing committee is willing and able to take that criticism constructively.
The reason that I have such confidence in OpenCon is because, through this weekend, I have seen a sliver of the potential of open access that these people see. I applied to OpenCon in about 15 minutes at eleven o'clock at night one night, figuring that it didn't hurt to try. These people believed in my work. And, in all honesty, they believed in it before I did. They gave me a shot to come, share my passion with like-minded people, and grow from their feedback and experiences. I will say that the support, positive feedback, and constructive criticism have been amazing. I have been able to refine the story around OpenAcademicData.org and hopefully convinced some people that administrative and educational data are important to open to the world. I am honored and humbled that they believed in my work enough to select me to become a part of the OpenCon family.
OpenCon is a young conference at only three years old. They are still learning and changing rapidly. I hope and believe that as time goes on, it will only get better, smoother, more mature. I also believe that these are the sort of people who will always be restless, never quite finding exactly the right way to do the conference because there never will be one. They will change with the times as appropriate. And, because so much of this community is comprised of early career [researchers, librarians, government employees, etc.], they will always be on the cutting edge of open access. I look forward to seeing the next iteration of the conference and how impactful it can be on the lives of the participants.
Note: If I have mentioned your name specifically in this post, it is because I want everyone to get the credit they deserve. If you would prefer that I not mention you by name or that I remove the link to your social media account, please message me and I will remove it immediately.

Working while studying
Whether or not you can work in the UK will depend upon the type of visa that you have.
Primary page content
Your visa will confirm whether you are permitted to work. It is very important that you follow the conditions of your visa.
Short-term study visa
If you have a Short-term study visa, you are not permitted to take paid or unpaid employment nor are you able to undertake a work placement as part of your course.
Tier 4 (General) Students
Generally, students studying at degree level or above or who are on a study abroad program can work a maximum of 20 hours per week during term time and full-time during vacations; this will also be stated on your student visa.
If you are studying a course at Goldsmiths below degree level (for example, on one of our International Foundation Certificate programmes), then you can work a maximum of 10 hours per week during term time and full-time during vacations.
If you are unclear about your working conditions or think they are incorrect contact us for more information.
Restrictions on employment
It is important to understand that there are some restrictions on your employment if you have a Tier 4 visa.
You cannot:
- Be self-employed or engage in business activities. Business activity includes working for a business, not as an employee. For example, as a contractor
- Fill a permanent position
- Be a professional sportsperson or sports coach/entertainer, although music and dance students studying at degree level or above can undertake a work placement that involves professional performance if it is arranged by the university and is an assessed part of your course
- Setup a business, or be involved in the management of a business, for example, as a director
- Work more than the number of hours stated on your visa during term time under any circumstances
Term time
Term dates are set by Goldsmiths, and cannot be amended.
The start and end dates on your visa are linked to these official term dates.
For postgraduate students, the summer period is still considered to be term time for you, which means you cannot work more than the 20 hours per week. Once the official course end date has passed (as listed on your CAS statement), you can work full time until your visa expires. During Easter and Christmas vacation, you can also work full time.
For undergraduate students, you can work full time during the summer vacation period. During the Easter and Christmas vacation, you can also work full time.
Work placements
You can participate in a work placement for up to half of your course if you are studying at degree level or above or even more if it is a legal requirement (for example, if you are a PGCE student).
If you are studying below degree level, then your work placement cannot be more than one-third of your course.
The work placement can be carried out in addition to your other employment but only if your work placement is an assessed part of your studies and was originally stated on your CAS letter. If you are unsure about this please contact us before taking on the placement.
If you need help finding work in the UK, speak to our Careers Service.
Volunteering work
There is a difference between voluntary work and volunteering; if you are genuinely volunteering, then these hours can be undertaken in addition to the cap on hours.
However, if you do voluntary work, then this and any other (e.g. paid) work that you do must not exceed the number of hours you are permitted to work during term time. Voluntary workers will usually have contractual obligations to perform the work (e.g. to attend at particular times and carry out specific tasks) with the employer being contractually required to provide the work – the contract does not have to be written. The worker is usually remunerated in kind.
Please contact us if you are considering volunteering so that we can advise you further.
National Insurance Number
You do not need a National Insurance number when you are looking for work, but once you start a job, you will need to apply. Information on applying for a National Insurance Number is on the GOV.UK website.
Dependents working in the UK
If you have a Tier 4 dependent then they can take any type of employment including self-employment but they cannot work as a doctor or dentist in training.
