About the Kicker KMC5
Six channels of power
Six channels of power
Add serious sound to your boat with Kicker's KMC5 marine digital media receiver. Kicker gives you six channels of power if you want to add a slew of speakers to your party barge. A full-colour 3-1/2" full-colour display gives you control over two zones of audio on your boat, depending on your setup. And video capability means that you can connect an onboard camera for graceful docking. Plus, the big, clearly marked buttons are easy to see and easy to operate, even when you're wearing gloves.
Bring on the weather
This receiver fits into a standard gauge opening, so it's a solid choice if you don't have a lot of space to work with. IPX66 weather-resistance means you don't have to think twice about splishin' and a-splashin'. Kicker also builds in a weather-band tuner so you can get details on the dark clouds gathering on the horizon.
Fun sources
You can stream music from your smartphone, plug a music player into the rear aux input, or pop a thumb drive into the rear USB port. You can tune into your favourite local radio stations using the AM/FM tuner, get updates from the built-in weather band tuner, and with the addition of a SiriusXM tuner, you can enjoy the hundreds of satellite radio stations. And if you're planning to add an amp or two to your system, you'll appreciate the eight rear-mounted preamp outputs and a customizable EQ with 5 presets.
Bluetooth note: Use of this receiver's Bluetooth features will depend upon your phone's Bluetooth capabilities. Learn more in our article explaining Bluetooth profiles.

Product Research
IPX66 Certified: The Kicker 46KMC5 digital media receiver features IPX66 waterproof / dustproof certification, so it can hold up in the marine environment and withstand powerful splashes of water out on the ocean or lake. During testing, water is projected at all angles through a 12.5mm nozzle at a flow rate of 100 liters/min at a pressure of 100 kN/m2 for 3 minutes from a distance of 3 meters. It's also fully dustproof and does not allow any dust or debris to enter the unit.
3.5" Color Display with Rotary + Push-Button Controls: The Kicker 46KMC5 features a 3.5" full-color display that shows you on-screen song/artist/album information, album art, and track data. It even allows you to display video through the receiver's composite video input. The unit offers a 3-way rotary dial and push-button control for simple operation. A rubber cover is included to protect the unit's front-panel when not in use.
- Day/Night Mode: The Day/Night feature allows you to change the color scheme from Day Mode to Night Mode. The unit is defaulted to auto switch when your boat's lights are turned on. In order for the unit to automatically switch between day and night modes, the orange illumination wire must be connected. You can also set the unit to stay in either Day mode or Night mode by rotating the knob and selecting the desired setting.
- Dimmer: The Dimmer allows you to adjust the brightness of the screen and button illumination. You can adjust the brightness from 0 to +10.

Use the Kicker KRCY1 Y-Cable (sold separately) to add two 47KRC55 remotes to the 46KMC5 digital media receiver; you also need two KRCEXT25 extension cables (sold separately). The optional 47KRC55 wired remote controller features an IP67 water-resistant design so it can hold up to harsh marine environment. It features a 2.5" LCD screen and push-button control.
Note: The 46KMC5 does not support a wireless remote control.

Note: The receiver's chassis is round and does not include a mounting sleeve or ISO-mount screw holes to accommodate standard automotive installation.

TCW: "Corruption"
Posted By
Madalore and Duchess Satine make their Season 3 debuts in this week's all new episode of
The Clone Wars
. Supervising Director Dave Filoni guides us through this week's preview write-up for the episode titled,
(S3 Ep. 5). As always, don't forget to check out the preview video below as well!
Mandalore?s Peace is Threatened by Corruption in an All-New Episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars!
On a diplomatic mission to Mandalore, Senator Padm? Amidala uncovers a sinister plot lurking beneath the pacifist planet?s serene fa?ade. With the help of Duchess Satine, she investigates a mysterious illness spreading among Mandalore?s children, discovering corruption that extends into the highest levels of the Mandalorian government. An all-new episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, ?Corruption,? airs at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT Friday, October 8 on Cartoon Network.
?Corruption? explores a system divided. Deep in the midst of an identity crisis made even worse by the widespread turmoil of the Clone Wars, the people of Mandalore find themselves torn between their violent past and their leader?s promise of peace for the future.
?It?s a fascinating culture at a really interesting time,? says Dave Filoni, Supervising Director of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. ?Mandalore has a long history of violence, and they?re trying to move away from that. But this is all taking place in the middle of a galaxy-wide civil war, so it?s difficult for Satine to make a case for peace when there?s so much violence all around. And that?s exactly why peace is so important to her.?
While Season Two?s visit to Mandalore saw the schism reflected in the explicit aggression of the Death Watch, the latest plot indicates a far more subversive threat ? reaching into the highest echelons of the Mandalorian power hierarchy.
?There are bigger threats to peace than the Death Watch,? says Filoni. ?We?ve seen their approach in Season Two; they used violence as their message. But political corruption can be far more damaging in the long run. The scale?s so much broader here, and the stakes are system-wide. Ultimately, Mandalore?s allegiances are key to the Clone Wars, so every little transgression can have ripple effects throughout the war. Corruption can spread, and it?s threatening to poison Satine?s best efforts.?
Without the explosive threats of the Death Watch, the story necessarily takes an altogether different tone. Teamed with Padm? for the investigation Satine sets out to uncover the threat to her power ? and to Mandalore?s peaceful future. Though they come under fire as the investigation heats up, the two women face dangers with far-reaching consequences even greater than mere threats to their own personal well-being.
?Whenever we visit Satine, we?re going to see a war of ideals,? says Filoni. ?She?s very steadfast in her beliefs, and that?s what makes her a good leader. She?s got a tough job, though. She is often undermined by her own people, and her core beliefs are even at odds with the beliefs of the other Clone Wars heroes ? including the Jedi and the Senate. Ultimately, they all want the same thing ? peace ? but they have different thresholds. With an endgame that is so important to the entire galaxy, compromises can be difficult ? even when it comes to the means by which peace is achieved.?

Padm? and Satine begin their investigation into Mandalore?s dirty politics in ?Corruption,? an all-new episode of STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS premiering at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT Friday, October 8 on Cartoon Network.

Please take a look at the leaves that are mature to determine whether they're Deliciosa as well as Borsigiana. The real Deliciosa has a furrow at the point where the stem and leaf meet, which the Borsigiana doesn't.
Monstera Deliciosa Vs Borsigiana
Difference between the Monstera Deliciciosa and the Borsigiana
Here's an overview of the most critical differences between Monstera Deliciosa and Borsigiana. Understanding these vital differences can help you distinguish one from the other.
Unlike borsigiana, mature monstera deliciosa leaves will have a winkle or geniculum.
The most well-known distinctions between Monstera Deliciosa as well as borsigiana are the geniculum. In the case of plants, the geniculum refers to the joint on the stem that connects it to the leaf or leafstalk.
Monstera Deliciciosa has wrinkled or wavy skin at the tip of each petiole when it joins leaves. Many call them "ruffles" due to their appearance and curly texture. This unique design of the plant permits movement and flexibility.
Contrary to delicious, borsigiana is like other plants that have the geniculum.
The leaf base that joins them to their stems is straight and straightforward. It is smooth when you get it in your hand.
Monstera deliciosa leaves will have a winkle or geniculum.
The plant's geniculum can help you determine whether the plant is deliciosa or borsigiana. It isn't easy to distinguish between them in the stage of their development.
Deliciosa develops these ruffles when it is a semi-to fully mature stage as it creates.
Growth Habit
Monstera Deliciciosa is a plant with a horizontal and spreading growth characteristic. This implies that they are prone to grow and spread in tandem with their location rapidly.
Additionally, you'll see them scurrying along the ground all the time since they're slow climbers. As the deliciosa becomes older and matures, it will transform into the form of a vine.
The other side of the coin is that borsigiana is a vine-growing habit. It has a long stem that extends on the ground or upwards of the top of a particular stack.
In contrast to the deliciosa, Borsigiana has already begun to grow, and twine like it grows. It is a vine in its first growth.
If your Monstera appears to be a bit messy with a nesting leafstalk and stem, it's more likely to be a delight. If, however, your Monstera shows a more neat development, it is expected that you are a borsigiana.
Monstera Deliciosa Has Larger Leaves
Their size is a different aspect that stands out from the Monstera delicious from the borsigiana.
Monstera Deliciciosa has leathery and gorgeous leaves that look massive. Its leaves can extend as high as 3 inches (1 meter) in length and width within their habitat. (Source: University of Florida)
Monstera borsigiana On contrary has leaves that are smaller than Monstera borsigiana. The leaves of this species can reach the dimension that of 1.6 feet (0.5 meters). According to some reports, it can reach 1.6 feet (0.5 meters). It is nevertheless an attractive leaf-size plant to have in your house.
It is essential to keep in mind that the growth rate of plants is different under specific circumstances. Factors like light, water, and the environment's growth can cause each leaf to grow bigger or smaller.
The best method of determining the Monstera type is to compare two plants grown simultaneously and in the same condition.
Growth Rate
If the plant in your garden proliferates, you could have the Monstera Borsigiana.
Although the borsigiana is known to be smaller than the deliciosa, its growth rate is significantly higher.
In general, a deliciosa grows about 2 feet (1 meter) a year on average. Therefore, you can anticipate that your borsigiana will develop a little faster than this.
If you discover the deliciosa of your home instead of borsigiana, do not be concerned. Deliciosa may grow just as tall or even higher than thirty feet (9 meters) in their natural habitat.
It is also essential to keep in mind that the plant's growth rate may differ by certain conditions.
A lot of people mistake Monstera Borsigiana and Deliciciosa as two plants. It will be clear once you realize that they do have a slight distinction in taxonomy.
Taxonomy refers to science, which focuses on the method of identifying, categorizing, and giving names to plants.
Monstera borisigiana and Deliciciosa are taxonomic synonyms. This means they fall within the same taxon; however, they are of a different species. (Source: Global Biodiversity Information Facility)
Check the table below that shows the taxonomic hierarchy of the Monstera deliciosa and borsigiana.
|Monstera deliciosa Liebm with the other name of Monstera borsigiana Engl.
Stem Structure
Examining a particular pattern of Monstera stems can aid you in understanding what the plant is.
The distinctness that differentiates Monstera borsigiana from Deliciciosa is the gap that exists between their nodes. Nodes are the round areas or spots between the stems of plants.
It is also where the branches, buds, or leaves form. For the Monstera, this is the spot that joins the petiole that is the part that is the place where a leaf rests on the main stem.
If you take a closer look, you see that there is more space between the nodes to the closest one of Borsigiana compared to the deliciosa.
This is the reason borsigiana tends to grow at a higher rate when it encourages forward its growth.
If your Monstera appears to be a bit chaotic, with leaves that are nearby, it could be the borsigiana.
However, your plant could be a different type when its petioles look a bit disjointed and distant from one another.
In addition to the discernible physical distinction between Monstera Deliciosa and the Borsigiana, the prize will quickly discern the difference.
Monstera Deliciosa is an expensive plant, with prices ranging from between $20 and $100. It can go up depending on the area, location, store, and seller. Borsigiana is otherwise less expensive.
You can check it out on Amazon to verify and check.
Similarities to Monstera Deliciosa and Borsigiana
We will talk about some of the common elements of Monstera Borsigiana and Deliciciosa, which are the same.
Perforated Leaf Structure
Both Monstera Deliciciosa and borsigiana are well-known thanks to their dark, green foliage, which seem to have been cut by scissors.
The cuts made between leaves are a variety of cuts in terms of number sizes, appearance, and size. They are usually oval or semi-round in shape.
The natural leaf holes are scientifically referred to as "leaf fenestration." The circular incisions found along with the central veins of the leaf are designed to improve the moisture and nutrient intake from the Monstera.
This is because the roots, as well as the Monstera vine, are battling to get water.
Furthermore, Monstera develops these perforated leaf structures to provide an adaptation to winds and rainfall.
The holes let the rainfall through them and direct them to the roots. They also provide a form of relief for the plant from damage caused by wind.
Both Monstera Deliciosa and borsigiana are distinguished by the quality of the slit leaves.
Be aware that these changes are a result of the growing age that the plants are in. Therefore, the leaves of younger Monstera might appear less slender and uncut for a time.
Leaf Shape
Although the leaves of Monstera deliciosa are never greater than borsigiana however, their leaf shapes are similar.
As they are in the same genus of flowering plants of the Arum family, Monstera is also part of the Arum family. Monstera is cordate-shaped leaves.
The leaves are shaped like the outline of a heart. The base is deeply cut and extends across the vast, and flat surface, finished with an apex that tapers.
Despite the holes stretching out to the edge of the leaf in the middle, you'll see it in the form of the shape of a heart.
In general, Monstera deliciosa and borsigiana have heart-shaped leaves, though some might not be perfectly cordiform.
Root System
Apart from the similar characteristics present in both the leaves Monstera Borsigiana and deliciosa also share a similar root system. Both have many aerial roots, which are referred to as adventitious roots.
Aerial roots develop down the stem or up primary sources over the growing medium or the ground.
The aerial roots play a variety of roles, including absorption of moisture and nutrient uptake, air exchange, and propagation.
Usually, people place their Monstera on the soil. Then it slowly rises and exposes its roots.
Have you ever had the pleasure of seeing an orchid? Whether borsigiana or deliciosa, Monstera makes use of its roots similar to those of orchids to move upwards on the ground.
The roots are sturdy and flexible enough to attach them to supporting structures like trees or rocks.
Keep in mind the fact that Monstera Deliciosa or borsigiana develops aerial roots over time. This means that you could see the roots growing significantly from the air and down to the ground as the plant grows.
Growth Requirements
As members of an identical family, ever-growing demands for Monstera Deliciosa and Borsigiana are similar for the majority of times. Read on to find out more about these helpful tips for plant care.
Monstera requires a well-drained it can be a peat soil-based potter's mix to grow beautifully and stay healthy.
Both Monstera deliciosa and the borsigiana like soil that doesn't infiltrate too quickly or at a slow pace but a moderate rate. Additionally, a rising media with a lot of organic content can lead to the growth of Monstera.
Select a pot with dimensions that are two to four inches greater than the plant's root ball. Repot the Monstera when its roots are spread to the sides and down the bottom of the pot to decrease the chance of the embryo growing outwards.
Also, avoid using huge pots to prevent the risk of waterlogging, which can seriously affect the health of your plants.
Monstera thrives under the light that is dappled. Although it can withstand up to six hours of direct sun, excessive exposure to the sun could cause scorching and burning of its leaves.
It is also a pleasure to receive artificial light when there isn't enough sun to be a natural source.
You can set your Monstera Deliciosa or Borsigiana outside; however, make sure it's under a canopy or shade.
The rising temperature over the Monstera preferential high temperature between 60oF and 80oF (16oC up to 27oC) is not ideal for them.
Similar to a temperature that is falling below (7oC) can cause injuries from frost or cold.
Monstera has a moderate water requirement. This means it is possible to water the plant in dry soil at a depth of 2 or 3 inches away from the surface.
Be cautious not to drown or overwater your plant with a consistent watering regimen.
Monstera does not need an excessive amount of fertilizer. Feed it with dry mix fertilizer rich in nitrogen throughout its period of active growth and repeat the feeding every eight weeks during the year.
Increase the quantity of fertilizer gradually, and then reduce your frequency for application eventually.
Key Take Away on Monstera Deliciosa Vs Borsigiana

Closed Hebburn pub set for new lease of life with £475,000 revamp after saddened customer takes it over herself
The Mill Tavern in Hebburn closed in October 2018, one of a number of South Tyneside pubs to shut their doors in recent years.
But now it is due to reopen new licensees Alex and Gary Davison after a major £475,000 refurbishment by Star Pubs & Bars – the leased pub business of Heinken UK.
Alex had been saddened by the pub's closure and rather than bemoan its loss, she decided to do something about it – so has taken it on with the view to creating the best family friendly community pub in the area.
She said: "Having been brought up in the area, I have many family friends living locally so could see the unrealised potential of The Mill Tavern.
"We weren't looking to take on a pub, but when I heard The Mill Tavern was up for lease, I knew it was a challenge I'd love to take up.
"I am not interested in running any other pub. I just want to breathe new life into The Mill Tavern, put it back at the heart of the community where it belongs and make it the best it can be."
Gary Corney, regional operations director for Star Pubs & Bars, said he is confident Alex's passion for the pub and the company's investment "will be a winning combination".
He said: "We're delighted Alex and Gary have taken on the Mill Tavern.
"Alex knows the pub and the local community personally and is passionate about creating a great family and dog friendly local for residents.
"Over the last four years a lot of houses have been built in the area with more planned yet there are few invested in pubs offering food that can cater for them."
He added: "Heineken is a passionate supporter of the great British pub and is investing £50million this year in pubs like The Mill Tavern ensuring they continue to be relevant to their local communities and are sustainable in the long-term."
Plans for the pub
The Mill is due to reopen in September, with the revamp cash being spent updating and upgrading the pub, giving it "a modern look with a retro twist".
The interior is being opened up with pillars removed to improve viewing and create a spacious bar suitable for drinking, coffees and casual dining as well as a quieter restaurant area.
There will also be a new kitchen to enable the pub to offer fresh home cooked food, new oak flooring with tiling around the bar area, exposed brick walls and four large HDTVs ensuring sport can be seen anywhere in the pub.
"Colourful soft furnishing and high-quality mood lighting will add to the atmosphere," says Star Pubs & Bars, adding "the loos are also being completely overhauled with new fittings and décor".
Outside, the pub is getting a makeover including a "fresh dark green and khaki render, signage and lighting" as well as landscaping work and a reworked beer garden at the front of the pub.
What will be on offer?
Foodwise, there will be a new menu offering traditional pub classics and a carvery on a Sunday.
The drinks will include craft lagers, draught ales and draught and bottled cider, wine for all budgets, and a spirits menu including 30 different gins and cocktails.
Alex's plans for entertainment at The Mill Tavern include: Live Sky sports, a quiz night and darts as well as live local bands on the last Friday of the month
The Mill Tavern will be open from 11am to 11pm for "barista-style" coffee and drinks with food served daily from 12pm to 9pm.

A beach holiday in Goa is incomplete without a stay in the beach resorts in Goa. Here are the top 5 reasons why you must not miss out:
Best views
Beach views make your holiday truly memorable. Goa has some of the most beautiful views of the shoreline. The resorts set right on the beach enjoy some of the best views of the cerulean sea as far as the eye can see. Would you not wake up to heavenly views of the sunrise watching the waves, fishermen making their way with the fresh catch of the sea.

The Michigan Wolverines are the 2021 Big Ten Champions and will play Georgia in the College Football Playoff semifinal on Dec. 31. A 17-year conference title drought is over and Michigan has a chance for a program-record 13th win on New Year's Eve.
A team that was given a 0.0% chance of making the Playoff from ESPN's FPI preseason predictor is now two wins away from a national championship. ESPN should have pumped those odds up, don't they know pump it up?
Think back on the journey to even reach this point. Jumping around in Madison after blowing out the Badgers. Sweating out a seven-point victory at home against Rutgers. Brad Hawkins forcing a fumble at Nebraska that allowed Michigan to complete the comeback after trailing for the first time all season. Tight end Erick All taking a crossing route to the house on a cold day in Happy Valley to change the narrative of the program. And most importantly, beating Ohio State in resounding fashion.
Any team can win on their good day, but championship teams find a way to win on their bad days. While the Wolverines were far from bad against Iowa, they were also far from perfect.
Michigan was unable to establish a consistent running attack, quarterback Cade McNama struggled with accuracy and punter Brad Robbins tied his season-high with five punts. Outside of two explosive plays in the first half, the Wolverines were anemic with the ball.
Despite struggling to finish drives, the Hawkeyes were having success moving the ball against the Michigan defense early in the game. The emotional hangover from beating Ohio State was evident, but the Wolverines shook the rust off in the second half and quickly turned a slogging performance into a boat race.
Tied ends Luke Schoonmaker and Erick All took turns making one-handed catches. Running back Hassan Haskins set the single-season rushing touchdowns record with his 20th on the year. And defensive end Aidan Hutchinson notched another sack that could secure him a trip to New York as a Heisman finalist (it has been 41 years since a defensive linemen finished higher than fourth in Heisman voting).
Michigan arguably played the worst game it had in a month and beat a 10-win Iowa team 42-3. The Wolverines have now outscored their last three opponents 143 to 48 and have proved their resiliency week in and week out since losing to Michigan State in October.
Michigan is peaking at the right time and now has an opportunity to claim their first national championship since 1997 and the first outright national championship since 1948.
As a refresher, this is what was going on in 1948:
-The former Cleveland Indians won the World Series.
-The game Scrabble was introduced.
-Communists had seized control in Czechoslovakia.
-Rutgers was good at football.
With two games remaining, head coach Jim Harbaugh can do what very few have ever achieved at Michigan. Harbaugh doesn't have an opportunity to restore Michigan football to glory; he has an opportunity to take it to a level that has only been recently spoken about in prayers. Harbaugh can do something that Bump Elliott, Gary Moeller and even Bo Schembechler couldn't do in Ann Arbor.
Team 142 began the season unranked after a disappointing 2-4 campaign in 2020. All hope seemed lost within the program and this team's ceiling seemed to hover around the Gator Bowl. Now, the Michigan Wolverines are on the precipice of immortality.
On Saturday, we learned that those who stay will once again be champions.

A brand new facial recognition software in America is receiving overwhelming backlash as people feel their privacy is being invaded.
Clearview AI is a brand new facial recognition tool that can take a photo of your face and find every other photo of you that exists online.
Today's top videos
By downloading billions of pictures from Facebook, Instagram, etc., this software can find all public information about you within seconds.
In investigations by the New York Times and CNN, journalists and producers asked the creator to run photos of them through the software and were shocked by the results.
Not only did it pull up every social media photo of them, but it also found pictures that journalists didn't even know existed.
A CNN producer Donie O'Sullivan was shocked when Clearview AI found a photo of him from secondary school in Ireland when he was 15 years old.
The photo had been published in a local newspaper, and what's more, in the photo, Mr. O'Sullivan looks completely different. The software understands changing faces and can also find someone's photos even if they are wearing sunglasses or a cap.
New York Times reporters found that the software was already being used by law enforcement as high up as the FBI and has helped to solve a number of serious crimes.
However, if the software was in the hands of the public, it would be possible to take a photo of a stranger on the street, scan it, and find them online.
This is a huge privacy issue and could be life-threatening in the wrong hands.
According to the creator Hoan Ton-That, Clearview has downloaded billions of pictures across major social media platforms and small websites.
Companies like Twitter, Facebook and Google have already sent cease-and-desist letters, but the way that the startup has downloaded images is not against the law.
Once images are downloaded, they can be copied over and over and stored on countless computers around the world.
On the Clearview AI website, they claim that the product is for 'search, not surveillance'. It's advertised as a 'tool used by law enforcement' to identify criminals.
Investigators who have used the tool agreed that it was ideal for crime-fighting, but they had some concerns.
The tool has already been banned in New Jersey despite it helping New Jersey police solve a child predator case.
'I was concerned about its data privacy and cybersecurity measures that it takes,' said New Jersey Attorney General, Gurbir Grewal.
The system can recognise a face with sunglasses or a cap on, and trace it back to a photo that was taken of them 10 years ago.
In January, the London police department announced that they would also begin using similar tech to solve crimes. This resulted in a worldwide argument regarding privacy.
'If it can help locate missing children or vulnerable adults swiftly, and keep them from harm and exploitation, then we have a duty to deploy the technology to do this.'
Law enforcement in the US has been using facial recognition software for years. But this tool in particular that stores billions of photos of everyone online is particularly worrying.
It might even be the catalyst that causes enough protest and paranoia to finally outlaw facial recognition altogether.
Either way now would be a great time to change your social media settings to private.

BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, will step up its sustainability efforts next year by more than doubling the number of companies it will scrutinize for climate transgressions.
In 2021, the firm will start reviewing 1,000 of what it believes are the world's worst climate offenders, up from 440 this past year, according to BlackRock's "Our 2021 Stewardship Expectations," released Thursday. The $7.4 trillion asset manager plans to take shareholder action against any businesses that are not making significant efforts to curb carbon emissions.
"We will step up our engagement efforts with this universe and consider accelerated voting actions should the substance of companies' climate-related commitments and disclosures not meet our expectations," BlackRock said in its report.
Arguably the biggest sustainability advocate in the investing world, BlackRock made good on its promise to take action against companies this past year. Of the 440 companies it scrutinized, BlackRock took voting action against 55 directors and put another 191 directors on notice for next year, in the fiscal year ending June.
BlackRock said shareholder actions against directors have been effective in the past. Voting actions to revise pay policies resulted in changes at 83% of companies, while votes to increase board diversity occurred in 41% of firms.
How has BlackRock fared in its sustainability quest? Since July, challenges it backed at three businesses, aiming to elicit environmental disclosures, have had mixed results. The criteria it used to judge the companies were based on the framework created by the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).
At Australia's largest power company, AGL, a proposal asking it to disclose a plan to retire its coal plants by 2035 garnered support from just 20% of voting shareholders. At Spanish airport operator Aena, a bid to give shareholders a say on climate plans was met with 95% approval. At Denmark-based bioscience company Chr. Hansen, a request to submit better TCFD climate disclosures was dismissed by the board.
BlackRock's move to step up its efforts, along with increasing regulatory interest in climate change, has advocates hopeful that broader changes are coming for the financial sector after President-elect Joe Biden takes office in January.
This week alone, the New York State Common Retirement Fund (NYSCRF) said the companies in its portfolio would reach net zero by 2040, a more ambitious goal than the 2050 objective typically set by institutional investors. Meanwhile, the California State Teachers' Retirement System (CalSTRS) joined an activist push to elect four new board members to ExxonMobil.
BlackRock has been dialing up the heat on climate offenders for some time, particularly after CEO Larry Fink's bombshell letter this year to CEOs. Fink's missive sent shockwaves throughout the financial world after he said he would set sustainability as the standard for investments.

Small space? Reduced Mobility? No problem, just follow these tips!
Gardening brings peace and tranquility, but beyond that, it also offers numerous physical and well being benefits. For example, researchers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (or CDC) have listed gardening as a moderate-intensity level activity and just 2.5 hours a week can reduce the risk of obesity, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, heart disease, and depression amongst other things. With all these benefits, there's even more reason not to let mobility issues or lack of space get in the way of something you enjoy.
Gardening with Reduced Mobility
General aches and pains, injuries, and arthritis don't have to put a halt to gardening. Here are some ways to keep doing what you love without hurting afterward.
- Ease into it. Even if you have spent the winter doing exercises or other chores, it is likely you've been using different muscles. Pace yourself at the beginning of the gardening season so you don't overdo it. Experts suggest doing some light stretches before you begin, changing positions every 20-30 minutes and resting for about 10 minutes in between.
- Raised beds. Save your knees and back by using raised garden beds or planter boxes along with a chair or bench. While the height can vary, a good rule of thumb is to keep the width at an arm's length so you have easy access to all plants.
- Go vertical. Another option to the raised beds is to grow vertical plants using trellises, fences or outside walls. This way you can work standing up, just make sure they don't reach past your arm's length and are great space savers as well.
- Plant native. Native species offer a wide range of benefits, from attracting pollinators and beneficial insects to being drought resistant, but they also require a lot less upkeep. Cultivating plants that are native to your area means you can enjoy all the benefits of a garden without working overtime to keep it looking pristine.
But what if you don't have a yard?
Don't let downsizing or moving into a retirement community keep you from gardening. There are still many options available to keep you moving, boost your mood, and enjoying the fruits of your labour.
- Indoor plants. Keeping flowers, plants, and even herbs indoors offer great benefits. From having fresh herbs at your fingertips to cleaning the air inside your home and reducing stress, keeping an indoor garden is a great way to keep your thumb green.
- Container gardens. Many, many things can grow in planters and planter boxes, be it on a front porch or balcony. Use containers to grow herbs, tomatoes, and native species that will attract hummingbirds, butterflies, and other pollinators. With some forethought and planning, you can have beautiful blooms and bounty throughout the entire growing season. Just be sure to pay attention to how much sun or shade your plants will receive and how big they can grow.
- Community or shared gardens. If you want a larger project community gardens offer the perfect opportunity. Not only are you given your own plot to plant what you like, but you can also interact with other like-minded individuals and plan out blooms and harvests to share throughout the season.

Lessons for today from the fight over Prohibition
Trump loyalists find themselves in a similar boat as temperance proponents a century ago
OPINION — It's hard not to see the obvious parallels with today's political situation after only a few moments watching Ken Burns and Lynn Novick's terrific 2011 documentary "Prohibition."
The three-part series, which initially aired on PBS and is now available on Netflix, traces the growth of the temperance and Prohibition movements in the United States, noting the people and organizations that laid the groundwork for — and ultimately brought about — the 18th Amendment and the Volstead Act.
[That Time Congress Debated Prohibition and Used Beer Bottles as Props on the Floor]
"Prohibition would pit the countryside against the cities, natives against newcomers, Protestants against Catholics. It would raise questions about the proper role of government, about individual rights and responsibilities … and who is — and who is not — a real American," the narrator says, a little more than one minute into the first episode of the series.
"People found it necessary to believe that this was an Anglo-Saxon, white country," journalist and writer Pete Hamill says in the documentary. "And suddenly, here were all these Catholics, these Irish and Italians. Here were all these Eastern Europeans, including large numbers of Jews, who were not like them. And they were changing the country."
"In the small towns," the narrator notes, "particularly of the Midwest, where native-born Protestants lived a very, relatively speaking, stable life, they saw the cities as these cauldrons of debauchery and of large number of votes that were going to change the country."
Much of Donald Trump's appeal is to white Protestants of the Midwest and the South who see the country changing in ways that scare them. Like the small-town advocates of Prohibition, Trump's rural loyalists see the big cities as alien, filled with people who are less traditional in their views and behavior — and who don't look or sound the way they do. That's why Trump's rural and evangelical supporters have responded so enthusiastically to his attacks on elites, Hollywood, immigrants and the national media.
What women wanted
The role of women, first in establishing Prohibition and then in repealing it, is also worth noting.
Initially, women like Frances Willard, a pioneer in women's rights and the driving force behind the Women's Christian Temperance Union, led the charge for temperance. Later, around the turn of the century, Carrie Nation smashed saloons, and in the 1920s, Mabel Walker Willebrandt, assistant attorney general under Presidents Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge, proved to be an aggressive defender of Prohibition and a Republican firebrand against Democratic presidential nominee Al Smith.
Women often led the fight against alcohol because their husbands and fathers spent so much time and so much money in saloons. Drunkenness was a national problem in the 18th and early 19th centuries, and it touched all groups, native-born and immigrant, white and black, progressive and conservative, the documentary notes.
But while women marched in the streets and called for temperance, it was the Anti-Saloon League, established in 1893, that ultimately spearheaded the Prohibition movement. "More or less modeled on the modern corporation," the documentary notes, the Anti-Saloon League had a national headquarters, a salaried full-time staff, thousands of volunteers, deep pockets and a printing plant "that churned out 300 tons of propaganda every month."
The group quickly became a political force that defeated its opponents and elected its supporters, making it a forerunner to the National Rifle Association, which itself was formed in 1871 but didn't get involved in lobbying until the 1930s and election-related activities until the 1970s.
Proponents of Prohibition understood that the calendar was an issue, according to the documentary. "They had to get [the 18th Amendment] passed before 1920 because in 1920 there was going to be a new census. The cities, which were the wet parts, were going to have more representation in Congress and the small towns were going to have less representation in Congress."
The more things change
Conservatives and Trump loyalists face the same problem, as demographic changes over the next decade or two will likely alter the balance of political power in this country.
While today's Republicans seek to limit the number of polling places or place other burdens on voting, Republicans are unlikely to do what their ancestors did almost a hundred years ago — refuse to reapportion congressional districts so as to preserve the rural area's majorities in a country where population growth in the cities was exploding.
In fact, Congress was not reapportioned between 1911 and the passage of the Reapportionment Act of 1929. Most Americans never wanted the blanket outlawing of alcohol, which explains the widespread flouting of the Volstead Act.
When supporters of Prohibition refused to modify that law, which enforced the 18th Amendment, it only played into the hands of Prohibition opponents.
Ultimately, Prohibition failed because the American public tired of the hypocrisy it produced, the organized crime it encouraged and the view that some people could tell others how to live their lives.
The Great Depression also helped kill it, since legalization and taxation would raise hundreds of millions of dollars needed to help people, and since hard economic times opened the way for Democratic gains in the 1930 and 1932 elections.
Prohibition also failed because the views of women changed. Pauline Sabin, a "very wealthy, blue-blood New York socialite" and the first woman on the Republican National Committee, quit the RNC, and her party, to lead the fight against Prohibition. "For more than a century," the documentary notes, "women had been essential to the struggle to impose Prohibition. Now they were becoming central to the struggle to end it."
Same divisions
This year, we will once again witness a political fight between urban (and increasingly suburban) America and rural America.
We will also see a fight between conservative, white evangelicals and secular, non-Christian and non-evangelical voters. We will also see women again as a key voting group — they helped Trump win in 2016 but were responsible to a considerable extent for the Democrats' large midterm House gains just two years later.
Of course, 2020 isn't likely to replicate 1932. Times are very different, and there are more than enough political wild cards this year to produce unexpected outcomes.
My advice is simple: Watch the documentary on Netflix and enjoy a bit of American history presented in an engaging yet educational way. And think about why and how Prohibition came about and why and how the country ended up rejecting it.
Oh, and bartender, I'll have another, please.

Relieve Low Back Pain with Meridian Massage
The Bladder meridian is the key to relieving low back pain with Meridian Massage.
The Urinary Bladder (UB) meridian travels along the entire back, through the sacrum, across the buttocks, down the hamstrings and gastrocnemius (calf) muscles, and along the lateral (outside) edge of the foot ending on the 5th toe (see picture below). Whenever there is a concern about low back pain, always consider the UB meridian. (The Urinary Bladder meridian is the same as the Bladder meridian.)
Open the Bladder Meridian to Relieve Low Back Pain
For chronic low back pain, open the Bladder meridian along the whole back, down the legs to the 5th toes. Use vigorous, moving strokes, keep your attention on the Qi, allow yourself to improvise in the moment to create new methods of opening the meridian and moving Qi. Never cause any pain, just keep moving the Qi.
Use compression and movement to the gluteus (buttocks) muscles to allow the stagnant Qi from the back to flow down to the legs. Use compression and vibration along the hamstrings and gastrocnemius to draw the Qi down. Apply friction to the lateral ankle, foot and pinky toe to guide the Qi all the way through the meridian.
Points to focus on:
- UB 23 – the Shu point of the Kidney
- UB 31-34 located in the sacral foramen
- UB 36 – at the upper attachment of the hamstrings
- UB 40 – behind the knee, this is the command point of the back
- UB 57 – at the top of the Achilles tendon, in the center between the heads of the gastrocnemius
- UB 60 – behind the lateral malleolus, used to bring the Qi down the entire UB meridian
- UB 67 – on the pinky toe, the last point of the UB meridian

Hi Cindy,
its good information but we always need right and correct hands to imply massage which is very big problem either we cant find aright person or very expensive therapist for massage
Hi, have 3 bulged discs in the lower back for 11 years and have issues with the nerves and have recently had to increase the dosage of pain medication and heard someone mention the meridians so here I am. What's the best way to open the bladder meridian?
Hi Damien,
Working with meridians and acupoints can help relieve your pain. Given your circumstances, I would consult with a practitioner who practices Acupuncture or Meridian Massage or Shiatsu in your area. Hands-on contact to the acupoints, or acupuncture, gets the Qi (energy) flowing – when the Qi is flowing, pain reduces (that is the very short story). Many of the Bladder acupoints are on your back, so you will need someone else to massage them.
Here are resources for finding a practitioner in your area:
Meridian Massage – http://students.bigtreehealing.com/practitioner-directory/
Acupuncture – https://mx.nccaom.org/FindAPractitioner.aspx
Another approach that is helpful with these conditions is Feldenkrais – here is a link for more info – http://www.feldenkrais.com/AF_MemberDirectory.asp?version=1
I hope that you connect with a wonderful practitioner.
Just wanted to thank you for your web seminar that I watched online just now. Very informative and interesting. I thank you for your time in helping so many to help so many. Loved the worksheet and slides you offered as well!
You are most welcome!
I'm suffering from lower back pain and I "accidentally" clicked on this article…
My ? is now: how do you do it on yourself???
Hi Marianne,
That is the thing about massage to the low back, someone else has to do the work for us. I hope you can find a local hands-on practitioner who can assist you.
Thank you Cindy, I have used these points so many times … I call them my Magic Potion! Blessings & Love
Hi Cindy,
Just wanted to thank you for your web seminar that I watched online just now. Very informative and interesting. I thank you for your time in helping so many to help so many. Loved the worksheet and slides you offered as well!
You are welcome – I love my job!
Thank you for writing.
Quite interesting post and wish you were here in West Virginia!
Hi Heather,
Glad you enjoyed this post. if I'm ever in WV, I'll look you up!
Yes, and I will take a treatment. Bad toe accident several months ago to my left foot left my entire foot bruised and swollen; from there a whopping case of sciatica and piriformis syndrome have set it. Have had lots of osteopathic adjustments but really think the energy meridian has something to do with it. Contemplating some acupuncture 🙂
Ouch! Adding acupuncture treatments sounds like a great idea. I hope your healing moves along quickly.

This week, I watched Sir Ken Robinson's TED Talk, Do Schools Kill Creativity. My grand plan is to watch all the talks on the top 25 list in order to practice sketch noting and story analysis and Robinson's was the first on the list.
Robinson's message is still an important one. Creativity matters. Children are our future. We must not educate the creativity out of our children. His TED talk, which he gave in 13 years ago in February 2006, was nothing like what we've come to expect from TED talks.
First of all, the camera work is only semi-professional and there are no visuals at all. There's no death by PowerPoint here, you're safe. So visually, this video isn't as polished as what we're used to seeing now.
The talk itself is also really very different. He leads with his main point. In fact, just 3 minutes in, he states that creativity is as important as literacy and should be treated as such. He gets a round of applause, laughs a bit and makes a joke about telling his life story.
The language of his key message changes throughout his talk. He says we have to teach children to be used to mistakes, that they have extraordinary capacity, that they are all born artists (quoting Picasso), and that degrees aren't worth anything these days. He also talks about the value of human imagination and the importance of creative capacities. These are restatements of his central point.
That central point is that children are creative beings who will need creativity to succeed in the world and that our education system as it squashes that.
Near the end of his talk he tells the audience that we have to "rethink the fundamental principles on which we are educating our children." He doesn't offer his vision for what that might look like. He says that drama and dance are undervalued even in the arts, but doesn't share the vision of a school or system of education in which these are part of the core subjects.
Perhaps the thing that caught my attention the most was that the stories Robinson tells are still the things that stick in my mind. The child who draws God. The boy playing one of the three kings in the nativity play who says, "Frank sent this" instead of frankincense. The little girl who wasn't sick but a dancer.
This isn't a bad talk. But there's a vast structural difference between this one and the example I often use in workshops, Dan Barber's 2010 talk I Fell in Love with a Fishwhere he uses story and image to make the main point of the talk. His talk ends with an emotional vision of the kind of future change could bring.
Our ideas about what a good presentation looks like are constantly changing. It's fascinating to look back and learn from these developments, check the habits we are carrying with us and just be absolutely sure whether we want to hold on to them or not!

This paper aims to propose a typology of RFID-based tracking solutions designs to fit differing supply chains. The typology is developed based on a case study of a logistics service provider (LSP) interested in designing a tracking solution for different customers in fashion logistics. In addition to the LSP, four fashion retailers were involved in the study. The case study was carried out using a review of existing RFID tracking implementations in the fashion industry, analysis of a RFID tracking pilot conducted by the case company and interviews with representatives of the retailers. By varying three design parameters (place of tagging, place of tracking start, and place of tracking end) a tracking solution can be configured to fit the requirements and constraints of different fashion supply chains. In the fashion logistics context under investigation, such parameterization addresses retailer requirements, brings concrete and quantifiable benefits to both LSP and its customers and enables incremental adoption of RFID tracking. The proposed typology enables fashion companies to consider which configuration of RFID tracking best fits the requirements and constraints imposed by their particular supply chain. In addition, for fashion companies, who find adoption of RFID tracking difficult despite the obvious benefits, the proposed typology enables incremental implementation of supply chain-wide tracking.

september 19th is talk like a pirate day so don't forget to pull out your outlandish vernacular on this very special upcoming date.
john wants YOU to talk like a pirate on september 19th!
i saw pirates of the carribean on the weekend. as predicted (by me), johnny depp was rad in the film and (of course) stole the show. not that anyone else had a chance..
the acting was great, the governors daughter was mega hot, the special effects were superb and the whole mood of the film was quite cool. it clocked in at 2 hours and 23 minutes, but that isn't long enough in my books. yeah yeah, i like movies to be at least 3 hours if they're good ones. only the bad ones need be shorter than 2 hours.
colin contemplates life without the muffin
colin is applying for work in the uk and is planning on moving in the next month or two. i'll be sad to see him go but i understand the situation he is in with regards to employment and victoria. it's tough out here!!
those look like japanese frames. are those japanese frames on emmy?
i'll be going for coffee with emmy tonight. last time we went it was for spyguy's going-away. although spyguy didn't know about it until too late (he had made plans to play video games) we still made a 'toast' to him with our coffee-like drinks and drank said drinks to his success. he is spending his first full day in vancouver today.
erik gives the essential obvious expression to the camera
when i say i am going for coffee, that doesn't mean i am drinking coffee. i rarely actually drink coffee when i 'go for coffee'. it's more like, i am going to this place, and the place sells coffee, which some people may purchase. ya got it?

justin gave me a CD today with 2 new tracks from DJ Brian and John Kelley under the moniker of "Phonetik" — both rather large breakbeat tracks. i am not sure what record labels these will be coming out on, if any at all.. but they're great tracks and they're more of what i need in order to do another giant www.protonradio.com featured artist mix. the highlight on the CD is the Phonetik remix of Formulate (Justin)'s "Johnny Brooklyn" which is given the impossibly large sireny breakbeat treatment in the finest order. the final track on the CD is the new Formulate track called "No More" — very percussive, solid track.
nathan played me some of his new tracks last night. i have lost count of how many he has made. i haven't made anything in a long time. not that i am not inspired, i just don't have time to sit down and make music like i would like to. soon enough.. soon enough..
at work i listen to tracks, all possible pieces in the puzzle of my next mix or CD. i have found quite a few gems and i am refining the lineup for my next CD in particular. i am very close to being done.. pretty exciting!
this chair be high says i!!
