If you want to enjoy some benefits with your real estate company take your time when you are choosing your real estate company.

The manufacturing sector may no longer be the engine room of the UK economy, but it still accounts for around 10% of GDP, so it remains a critical component of domestic output and is a bellwether for the country's economic health and wellbeing.
Fastest growth in manufacturing since 2014
Amongst the mind-boggling range of monthly economic data, the Purchasing Managers' Index published by the Chartered Institute of Procurement & Supply (CIPS) is regarded as a key statistic. And in May, the PMI showed that UK manufacturing grew at its fastest rate for over three years. By leaping from 54.2 in March to 57.3 in April, this closely-watched indicator confounded many forecasters, and gave rise to new optimism around the UK's ability to weather the post-Brexit storm.
Main drivers of manufacturing growth
It can be tempting to read too much into data like this, which in reality is little more than a snapshot, yet it's worth exploring the reasons behind the recent surge. Some commentators have been quick to point to the weak pound as the chief cause of the rise in demand for UK goods. But the flipside of a declining exchange rate is that imported raw materials (such as metals and petrochemicals) drive up manufacturers' costs and damage competitiveness - so the case isn't as clear cut as many might suggest. And whilst the report specifically named strong demand from Africa, Brazil, Europe and USA, it indicated that the rise in output was also driven by increased orders from domestic markets.
A cause for optimism
The rise in Manufacturing PMI is certainly a compelling good-news story, and it shines particularly brightly as it comes at a time when many well-respected commentators seem to be focussed on bad news. And this is a significant point, because when consistent bad news erodes confidence, it can become self-fulfilling. So the integrity and strength of the CIPS data can serve as a powerful antidote.
Founded upon the responses of purchasing executives at more than 600 companies in the industrial sector, the index drills down into the heart of the sector's performance – taking account of the volume of new orders, output and employment levels. So in contrast to the many stories foretelling a tough future after Brexit, this recent growth in the manufacturing PMI should restore investors' confidence in UK firms.
A bright future?
It's difficult to ignore such a strong performance, even if it spans only a relatively short period. Yet the real question is whether this level of performance can be sustained in the medium- to long- term. Whilst this depends in part on factors outside the control of UK manufacturers (such as fluctuating exchange rates, the global economic climate, and the shape of trade deals in a post-Brexit world), there are a number of factors that lie within the control of UK firms - such as productivity, quality of output, and the ability to design and deliver innovative new products. And judging from recent performance, UK manufacturing appears to be well-positioned to leverage these assets to their advantage.

The Miami Student
Often, sexuality education is a taboo in American culture. As a result, sexual education programs at many schools create controversy.
Ohio only requires schools to provide HIV and STD education, and 13 states do not require schools to provide either. According to Dr. Gregory Garnett, medical director of Student Health Services, it's common for schools not to offer healthy sexual education. They take the mentality that students "aren't supposed to be doing that, therefore we don't talk about it.
"Students raised in this environment are uninformed; what they hear may be inaccurate," Garnett said. "It's difficult for students to discern what's real and what's not real."
In fact, several studies have shown that among young adults, levels of sexual activity have decreased or remained the same after sex education programs included information about condoms, according to the American School Health Association. There are disagreements about the form that sexual education should take, said Laura Ault, communications coordinator for Planned Parenthood. However, she added, "To say nothing is to teach nothing."
For many Miami students, their sex education developed at the university.
"My school's sex education program wasn't very good," said fifth-year student Kathleen Smith. Her seventh grade class at an all-girls school learned mostly about reproduction. STDs or contraception were not discussed until Smith's health teacher covered them in high school.
"In this day and age sex education should start earlier for kids," Smith said. "There's so much more to consider besides pregnancy, especially STDs and HIV/AIDS."
At Miami, there are organizations whose mission is to educate students about pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease prevention, HIV/AIDS, abstinence and "outercourse," or sexual activity that does not involve intercourse.
SHAPE, or Sexual Health Awareness Peer Education, offers a variety of programs geared toward college students. According to Karen Murray, adviser to SHAPE, a significant portion of the group's education programs have focused on HIV education.
All of SHAPE's peer educators are trained extensively. Murray said many times when students apply to become a peer educator they are surprised that people know so little about HIV, for example. Typically, they want to be part of the education process, she said.
"Peer educators are trained to deal with some ignorance. The education people get in school is not comprehensive," said Murray, also the director of Health Education.
Although the SHAPE program is geared toward college, it will present to organizations and to schools in the community. However, according to Murray, because many schools restrict the group's use of materials, "we're almost ineffective." In some schools, the group cannot use the word "condom" or show a condom. But SHAPE is willing to tailor its programs to fit the audience.
Tailoring programs fit to a specific age is one avenue sexual educators, parents and counselors can explore.
Planned Parenthood offers age appropriate kits for elementary, middle and high school students, according to Ault. These PASE, or "parents are sexuality educators," kits allow conversation between parents and children "without an intermediary, and hopefully begin a long-term process," Ault said.
Long-term sex education seems to be the ideal for future children. There is a push for Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) which encompasses issues including sexuality, culture and relationships. The goal of CSE, according to the video "Sexuality Education for the 21st Century," is to develop sexually healthy adults.
Advocates say schools should be involved in CSE because young people are enrolled in school when they initiate intercourse.
However, according to the video, only 5 percent of students receive CSE.
Garnett stressed that sexual education does not promote sexual activity. "The information may not be needed for five years, but that doesn't mean students don't need it."

The Ed Palermo Big Band: Take Your Clothes Off When You Dance
I recommend listening with an open mind. One doesn't necessarily have to be a devoted FZ listeneror even profess familiarity with the original musicto appreciate or understand Ed Palermo's arrangements. Although Zappa's unique style and twist in moods is present in each of the tracks, Palermo's own palette of colors shines through. "RDNZL, for example, is like a rollercoaster taking the listener down and up a variety of big band jazz-infused moments, while flirting with its rock 'n' roll heritage.
Palermo sometimes strips Zappa's music from its lyrics, so whatever story there's left to tell, Palermo has to make his arrangements work twice as hard to get the job done. His musicians really pull it off, although one might hope for a little more of the dynamics and vibrant energy usually present during live performances. "Gumbo Variations sure sounds danceable enough, but it seems to lack a little in speed and passion to really set things on fire. It's the restriction of listening to recorded music. All the more reason to catch this bunch in live performance.
Besides the whack, the humor and the intricate ingredients Zappa was known for, Palermo added a touch of melancholy and sensitive awareness one wouldn't ascribe to the genius of his hero.

NEW YORK | GENEVA (IDN) – Islands are often emblazoned across tourism pamphlets, glorified as the epitome of natural beauty and portrayed as idyllic places of escape. But this image is far from the dark reality they face.
Changes in sea level, temperature, precipitation, a growing number of extreme storms and floods, visible vulnerability of critical infrastructure such as ports and airports, growing unpredictability, and the fact that there is nowhere to go, is a daily threat for the 65 million people living in 57 small island developing states (SIDS) scattered throughout the world's oceans.

Larry Shyatt – Preparing to Be a Head Coach by Hal Gullick
On July 1, 2016, Larry Shyatt joined the coaching staff of the Dallas Mavericks as an assistant, who will work primarily with the post players. Shyatt was previously the head coach at Wyoming during the 1997 – 98-basketball season, the head coach at Clemson for five seasons (1998 – 2003), and returned as head coach of the Wyoming Cowboys in 2011. He also had a seven-year stint at the University of Florida as an assistant under Billy Donovan.
In 2015, Larry Shyatt shared some thoughts and ideas at a coach's clinic in Overland Park, KS about preparing for a head coaching position. He highlighted some valuable areas that I feel would be very beneficial for anyone preparing to become a head coach.
- Study the game and know your X's and O's. Players will always want to be certain that you understand everything you are teaching them everyday. Find a mentor to bounce ideas off.
- Force yourself to coach a team, either during scrimmages or practice, or at camps. A head coach's position presents a different perspective and requires a different focus than sitting on the bench as an assistant coach, balancing and dealing with refs, substitutions, offensive and defensive stats, and timeouts.
- Speak at as many events, luncheons, clinics, community functions, and camps as possible while an assistant.
- Learn to talk directly and honestly to players, parents, and other coaches when things are going well and also hen things are difficult. Communication needs to include constant listening to those around you.
- Be mindful that the people you work with daily (administration, parents, staff, and community members) may have an effect on your future. The relationships you build may come back to you ten-fold.
- Time management is key to be successful. Focus on managing your time and becoming efficient in staff meetings, phone conversations, and daily tasks.
- Get comfortable being uncomfortable. Constantly strive to work at your weaknesses, or areas you that you are least comfortable. Your staff down the road should complement these needs.
- As often as possible, start to daily prepare notes regarding staff meetings, individual workouts, practices, along with new drills and ideas to offer your coworkers or head coach. This will give you a sense of what each day as a head coach may be like down the road.
- Keep a notebook in as many different program aspects as possible.
The following areas are all vital to learn and gain experience in as you grow in the profession. Everyone is more comfortable and qualified in some areas than others are. However, you must find ways without it affecting your efficiency in your current role to become more prepared for operating a program in the future.
- Compliance
- Recruiting
- Scouting and game preparation
- Academic scheduling and mentoring
- Game scheduling
- Budgeting
- Team travel
- Public relations and promotions
- Facilities coordination
- Calendar of events and meetings for the year
- Summer camps and clinics
- Basketball preparation
-Individual workouts
-Preseason conditioning and training
-Practice organization
-Defense, offense, special situations
-Game day responsibilities
- Never be certain that your philosophy at the moment is the absolute, only right way. Be respectful and flexible enough to ask yourself the same that you demand of your players. Constantly study and analyze how you can improve.
- Take pride in understanding the rules and always ask your compliance department when there is any doubt as to how to proceed.
- Remember and respect the many different individuals who you work with and take no one for granted.
- Voice your opinions and stance when asked by your coworkers in a meeting. However, be careful and avoid personal comments to others regarding your basketball family outside those private times.
- Do not let your ego or vanity negatively affect your performance. Remember that you are representing yourself, family, and program at all times no matter where you are. Coaches are integral parts of each program, but not irreplaceable.
- Your reputation grows and follows you as each day passes, so work harder at being a good person.
- Make certain that you discuss problem areas rather than put them off or try and hide them. All successful groups need open dialogue and a servant's mentality for the program.
- As a rule of thumb, character is a priority when evaluating players. No program needs to add problems, but everyone can utilize another good player who possess high character. Close games are often decided by teamwork and character, whereas blowouts usually indicate superior talent.
- Not every player will select your program. Leave parents with a positive feeling about yourself and your program. Try not to discredit or demean anyone, regardless of his position in the process.
- Constantly force yourself to think "outside the box" and creatively when approaching recruiting, the game, and everyday assignments.
- Lastly, but certainly not least, balance your life and make certain if the quantity of time is not there with your family, there is quality time with them. You may need to sacrifice other pleasures that you have enjoyed in the past to make certain that the people you love the most, and who love you the most, remain supreme.
- Two great books that may have an impact on how you approach your life on and off the court:
- The Last Lecture, by Randy Pausch
- Doing What Must Be Done, by Chad Hymas

Online Slots Strategy – Always remember that knowing the strategy of your favorite trusted slot game is very important and useful that you may use when you are playing. The main slot machine was concocted towards the end of the nineteenth century. For more than 80 years land based opening machines worked with the reels really turning. In the first place, the wheels turned in light of the mechanical development of the arm and after that through electrical inputs. The principal video opening machine appeared just in 1975.
PC programming utilizing irregular number generators and electronic screens that showed representation were the essential inputs for video openings. No physically moving parts were required. The primary video space machine was imagined by Walt Fraley and was called Fortune Coin. Global Game Technology (IGT) saw a splendid future in video openings and purchased over Fortune Coin in 1976. IGT utilized the innovation to bring out other area based video openings too.
However, things did not go as IGT had arranged. Land gambling club players were careful about the product innovation and did not believe the virtual reels. They discovered more prominent solace in the physically turning reels. Like the other casino slot games, land based casino slot is different to online casino games but they have similarity according to its strategy. It was video poker that acted the hero of video spaces.
IGT Slots History
In 1979 arbitrary number generator based video poker machines were presented in area gambling clubs by IGT. These got to be mainstream in light of the fact that the recreations included a level of ability and luckiness. Players got to be OK with the virtual innovation furthermore took to playing video spaces. From that point, there was no ceasing the improvement of area based video space machines. New and energizing components were frequently presented.
Two elements that have added to the enthusiasm for video opening machines are the reward diversion on the second screen and dynamic big stakes. The connecting of bonanzas in state and nationwide systems empowered the dynamic big stakes to develop quick and hit every now and again. Dynamic bonanzas upwards of $18 million have been paid out for a solitary hit. In 1995 online gambling clubs first appeared.
Today there is maybe little contrast between area based video openings and online video spaces, yet in the mid-1990s, the online video spaces were certainly of substandard quality. Land based space machines were single diversion machines. The whole handling limit was intended to benefit only the one diversion and was coordinated with the necessities included. Online e-games betting clubhouse spaces must be composed remembering the handling limit of PCs claimed by people, which was exceptionally restricted and simple back then.
Additionally, online clubhouse players downloaded the whole online gambling clubs, which comprised of a large number of amusements. Thus the main online video openings must be exceptionally straightforward in structure and graphical substance. Today IGT rules the area based video opening machine scene. IGT was a little privately owned business when it procured the Fortune Coin space machine. 1981 it opened up to the world.
Its development from that point depended on a progression of acquisitions. Today, however, it keeps on being headquartered in Nevada, it has workplaces around the globe. The most recent destination was Beijing in 2009. IGT has various spearheading items in its range that incorporate Megabucks the primary wide region dynamic space machine arrange, the Wheel of Fortune dynamic opening and the Reel Edge arrangement in which players can stop the reels freely. In November 2010 IGT dispatched its two millionth area based video opening machine Siberian Storm. A considerable lot of the most well-known IGT titles have been changed over to online adaptations through its web gaming wing WagerWorks

ON ACTING: Banishing Consciousness of Purpose
But where these same actors often go wrong is having the character consciously aware of their objective during the playing of the scene.
Most people is life--which is what acting is attempting to emulate--do not know their purpose in most 'scenes' of their life. They often move through life unaware of ultimate goals. That's why they often create unproductive actions, why they often find themselves in the middle of comedy or tragedy. (In acting, in drama, of course, characters are ALWAYS by definition in the midst of comedy or tragedy!)
An actor who is consciously aware of his or her objective--the meaning of his/her actions--throughout the scene loses the possibility of wonderful moments of discovery, reversals of fortune, great emotional upheavals and surprises--all elements of an exciting performance. An all-knowing actor also invites the question: if the character was always so aware of his wants and needs during the scene, why did he or she get into the scene's dilemma in the first place. Consciously aware people most generally avoid unproductive situations.
I would argue that in the midst of drama or comedy most people--and interesting characters--lose awareness of their goals and actions. They are too caught up in life-saving denials. They are living 'moment-to-moment', their emotions too caught up in the present, their blood rushing to the heart and groin, and away from the brain.
I advise actors, in their scene analysis and preparation, to ferret out their character's objective in a scene, commit to it, be prepared to fight ferociously throughout the scene to attain it, but, once the scene commences, forget it, push knowledge of it away from their consciousness, bury it deeply in their unconscious muscle memory, so that it while it will energize their character's actions, there will be no residue of consciousness infecting the reality of their performance nor the innocence of their character.
Can an actor be knowing of their objective before the scene and unknowing during? Yes, of course. In life, as I mention above--it is called denial. It is part of a good actor's acting technique and craft...and training. Avoid it at peril.

A Picture is Worth 1000 Words.
Your headshot image is the first 1000 words you get to speak to your customer. Make them count.
What do you want to say to your customer? Are you in control? Approachable? Impeccable? Casual? Indoors? Outdoors? Not all headshots are the same, nor should they be. For Steve, a realtor with Coldwell Banker, indoor just didn't fit his personality. A black shirt, jeans, and boots cried out for the outdoors. Since many of his clients are looking for acreage, using the barn doors and some greenery as the background seemed only natural. The options we have in the Greensboro Studio allowed us to try some indoor looks, and then hop outside and try a couple of locations before zeroing in on the setup below. Of course, the lighting of the image is still spot-on, making Steve look great!

Scripture: Consequently, brothers, we are not debtors to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. For if you live according to the flesh, you will die, but if by the spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. (Romans 8:12-13)
Observation: These two verses are where I am at in my reading of the Bible this morning, and I was moved to journal on these two verses this morning, rather than the daily readings today. The revelation that I had this morning was that even as Christians we act as if we have to be suceptible to sin, because of our inability to be faithful to the gospel at all times. The truth that I read this morning is that we do not owe anything to sin, rather we have been suceptible to sinfulness in the past because of our lack of faith in the fact that Jesus died, so that we could conquer our sinful nature by his grace.
Application: I should see as well, when I am able to resist temptation, that it is only by the grace of God that I was able to do so. As I read earlier in the 7th chapter of Paul's letter to the Romans, there is no good that dwells in my flesh. I must also be aware that it is against my fleshly nature to follow God's will, so I must work tirelessly to put God first in my life and always be aware of the evil that resides in my flesh.
Prayer: Lord, send down your spirit to reside in me to resist the temptation to give in to the flesh. I ask this, as always, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy Spirit. Amen.

Back in 2002, I worked with a client who was a division administrator with the State of Wisconsin. He introduced me to the concept of "working in your Upper 50%" and it stuck with me. In fact, it is a method I have used with clients ever since. When people really get this, it can be very empowering and gets adopted as discussion norm.
What is working in your Upper 50%?
Working in your Upper 50% means working on those things that benefit most from your unique expertise, skills and abilities. It means working on those things where you can add the most value to the organization. The Lower 50% includes activities that you can probably knock out of the park, but they do not make the best use of your skills and capabilities. The activities in your Lower 50% are things that you should look to automate, delegate or delete. (Note: People gravitate to Pareto's 80/20 rule, but I find that 50/50 is easier to contemplate demands on one's time.)
How working in the Upper 50% helped this ELS exec
As a consultant, one of my functions is to counsel clients on finding and working in their Upper 50%. This requires having a deliberate conversation about what that means. For example, we were helping an emerging life science company build out a new functional area. The VP quickly understood the 50/50 concept and it became a weekly discussion item. The goal was to optimize the VP's time so, as the leader of Medical Affairs, he could focus on the data and the scientific narrative, creating a medical deployment plan, establishing performance metrics and collaborating with his peers on the go-to-market strategy. The team worked together to find solutions for his Lower 50%.
- We put a functional implementation plan together that delegated roles and responsibilities for completing prioritized activities.
- We established content guidance and review processes to delegate development of high-quality, consistent medical materials to the MSL team.
- We put a "send and move-on" system in place that he and his managers used to submit ideas, questions and decisions with confidence that a process and team would triage and act on them.
This allowed the VP and managers to focus on making decisions and developing cross-functional relationships with other departments and other activities where their time and attention was most needed.
Some people are reluctant about delegating Lower 50% activities. It's important to understand that it's not about relinquishing control; one person's Lower 50% is another person's Upper 50%. It's all about getting everyone to play to their strengths. Make the Upper/Lower part of your regular conversations.

Monkey God? Did I miss something here? Here's a quote from his blog (which is password protected for some reason) taken from TPMMuckraker,
The animals of allah for whom any day is a great day for a massacre are drooling over the positive response that they are getting from New York City officials over a proposal to build a 13 story monument to the 9/11 Muslims who hijacked those 4 airliners.
The monument would consist of a Mosque for the worship of the terrorists' monkey-god and a "cultural center" to propagandize for the extermination of all things not approved by their cult.
[Image of Hanuman taken from Passport of the Soul.]
Now to clarify, some within the Tea Party Express have come distanced themselves from Mark's comments calling it hate speech. But why monkey god? Why do some people feel the need to dehumanize the enemy? Does hate speech really help to disarm their opponents? Does dehumanizing the enemy help to justify the hatred? I'm assuming that Mark and his friends rationalize that they can love their fellow man as long as their human. For example Mark has apologized to Hindus for his remark (but not to Muslims) who actually worship a Monkey god, Hanuman, as a symbol of perseverance, strength and devotion. He goes on to say,
"Those are hardly the traits of whatever the Hell (literally) it is that terrorists worship and worthy of my respect and admiration not ridicule."What surprised me is that he probably took the time to Google "monkey god" and apologized to Hindus but didn't have the effort to Google "Allah" to find the similarities between Allah and the OT God of the Bible. I'm not defending terrorists only highlighting the dangers of throwing all practitioners of a faith into the frying pan for the actions of a few extremists. The very same can be done with Christianity by saying all Christians are white supremacists by looking to the KKK as the defining example of Christians. Of course Christians would be outraged and quick to argue that hate groups aren't "Christian" as much as Muslims would (or at least should) be outraged in being defined by the actions of the extremists in their faith. But hey, why bother apologizing to a monkey, right?

Mike KubzanskyChief Executive Officer
Welcome, but Long Overdue
The US Business Roundtable (BRT) is finally catching up to what many have found obvious since at least 2008.
After nearly half a century of predictable advocacy that focused solely on shareholders, last week the BRT issued a statement asserting that businesses should move away from pure profit maximization and consider their impact on a broader array of constituents. Put simply, they finally recognized the importance of shared prosperity to our economy, which is critical to a thriving society that allows a greater number of people to live with dignity.
A Different Kind of Capitalism
At Omidyar Network, thinking about capitalism differently is a longstanding mindset and practice. We have long argued that businesses can and should have a positive social impact on their communities and deliver important services that expand inclusion. To date, we have invested more than $700 million in companies that think simultaneously about both financial returns and social impact, and in groups like the Impact Management Project that measure that contribution.
But we also fully recognize that it's not enough to just fund businesses with a positive social impact. That's why we welcomed the BRT's about-face on the purpose of a business. They rightly updated their long-standing position that the goal of a business is to solely maximize shareholder value with the recommendation that companies should balance a range of considerations from various stakeholders: people who work for them, consumers, suppliers, the communities in which they operate, and so forth.
The Time is Now
And it's about time. The BRT is lagging a widespread societal consensus that purpose and profit are inextricably linked. We're not surprised — it took 35 years from when Milton Friedman first published Capitalism and Freedom until 1997 for BRT to officially enshrine "shareholder primacy" as doctrine, after many laws and practices had already changed. And it's now plainly apparent that this now-discarded doctrine — one of the central features of neoliberal economic theory — just isn't working. Not only has it failed to deliver broad, shared prosperity, it has actively undermined it by causing the conditions that keep hard work from being fairly rewarded and contributes to growing and destabilizing inequality. CEOs have finally recognized this and now rightly worry about their social license to operate.
Many of the reactions in the past week range from "wait and see," to deeply skeptical, to cautiously helpful in pointing out what businesses must do next. We share many of these concerns. For instance, for the statement to be more than words on a page, the BRT and its members must take real actions, like addressing how they will invest in workers who are struggling to make ends meet. Even Tom Wilson, the CEO of Allstate and Chairman of the Executive Committee of the US Chamber of Commerce, has pointed out that American workers are struggling and need higher wages.
Our skepticism is reinforced by the recent actions of many of the CEOs on the BRT. In 2017, President Trump announced massive corporate tax cuts. In response to the record high profits, corporations spent over half of it on stock buybacks and only six percent on workers. In dollar terms, that's over $1 trillion on stock buybacks to investors in 2018. And just last week, at the same time they released this statement, many BRT members were also pushing to weaken the consumer-protecting Volcker Rule that was passed as part of the Dodd-Frank Act in the Great Recession's aftermath.
But in some ways, we find the more useful critiques to be from those still (inexplicably) upholding the banner of Friedman. They are asking: "who empowered corporate leaders to make this judgment?" and "how will companies now adjudicate among their various stakeholders?"
Many companies (B Corps in particular) work hard voluntarily or as a matter of purpose to answer these questions, and do so well. But many companies simply cannot answer those questions voluntarily, nor should we ask them to. Under current rules, corporations will tend toward maximizing profits for their shareholders and executives, absent other pressures. Companies exist to make a profit, and they follow (for the most part) the rules and incentives built into the system through laws, regulations, cultural norms, and other means. Businesses and markets will never be fully self-regulating, nor should we ask them to be — regulating and bounding them is the clear job of the state, or at least of democratically legitimate states.
Changing the "Rules of the Game"
Given this reality, we believe that society — via our government — must now rewrite what Friedman called the "rules of the game" to better guide these tradeoffs. The ball is in the government's court, as a political economy question, as it should be. Richard Reeves of Brookings Institution recently wrote:
It's true that the market does not value environmental resources (any more than Soviet-style socialism); but that is not the fault of the market, but of politicians… The Great Lakes are not protected from pollution because American capitalists read Silent Spring and decided to put planet before profits. If they are relatively clean today, that's because the government protected them, on behalf of the people. Market forces are always being shaped, for good or ill, by politics.
But this still raises the question of business' participation in rewriting those rules. Our current neoliberal incarnation of capitalism — not to be confused with capitalism itself — suffers from a set of rules that are both deeply skewed and insufficient. This has happened in large part because of the lobbying muscle of the business community, which has considerable power to shape how the rules themselves are written. And unlike in 1997, BRT updated its 2019 doctrine before the laws and rules changed.
So, we argue that the announcement presents an opportunity, albeit a risky one. To us, the statement represents an open invitation to society to renegotiate. And the fact that this comes from some of society's biggest winners under the old rules is significant. They have introduced an invitation to write new rules, and to redefine the boundaries and incentives to which businesses must conform and adapt — including a clarification of their responsibilities toward various stakeholders. Although the immediate prompt comes from business about its role, the task and opportunity at hand is in fact a much broader one: to reimagine capitalism itself. We should seize the chance and accept the offer.
Two Tests
We are not naïve. We know that business may have issued the invitation, but that any new rules will be heavily contested by that community. Ultimately, we see two tests. First, how will business groups try to skew the new rules of the game? Will they continue to advocate for shareholder-first laws and regulations, e.g., on monopoly power?
And second, how will the same BRT members who signed the letter follow it up with actions that impact their own companies? People should be able to join a union without fear of retribution and they should be paid wages that allow them to raise a family and live with dignity. Stakeholder voices, aside from shareholders, should be at the table and included into corporate governance (for example, including workers on corporate boards). We should also watch to see who gets the proceeds of windfalls like tax cuts. Is it workers? Research and development? Or predominantly shareholders in the form of buybacks?
It's critical that we maintain active vigilance and contestation to ensure democratic legitimacy in the process and avoid capture of interests. New rules of the game should ensure that these questions are answered differently in the coming decades than they were in the past. To do that, we need to build a significant coalition and infrastructure to engage the coming rewrite, one which we have only just begun to fund through our support to groups like the Economic Security Project, Open Markets Institute, and Roosevelt Institute.
The Path Forward
As daunting as this may seem, new rules won't be enough. Real change — a new, more equitable form of capitalism — requires new mindsets, beliefs, and goals that go well beyond GDP growth. We need new ways of understanding and teaching economics. We need to rewrite the narratives we tell ourselves about the economy and who it should be working for. This challenge and opportunity requires a decades-long commitment, not dissimilar to the work that was done to deeply ingrain shareholder primacy years ago. It's up to us to set better rules for the next half century, ones that prioritize the good of the many over the gain of the few, because profit-seeking businesses will ultimately operate within the rules and incentives they are given.
Thanks to the shift in conversation, businesses are beginning to signal that they know they will lose their social license to operate if they keep narrowly focusing on their shareholders. They may be a decade (or more) late, but we welcome it nonetheless. We look forward to working alongside a broad coalition of stakeholders to seize this opportunity to reimagine capitalism — and hold companies accountable for their role in it.

Here is to another great year hearing about his time in the Arizona Gilbert Mission!
Elder Parker Bronson is serving a 2 year mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in the Arizona Gilbert Mission
Tuesday, June 3, 2014
Elder Bronson's year mark is June 5th. He has been loving his mission and has kept his fun-loving humor and personality. He is right where he needs to be. His missionary experience comes with many challenges (not excluding the AZ heat :), but his love for the people of the Gilbert area and his testimony of the gospel has proven to humble and strengthen him in so many ways. We love you Elder Bronson!

Week 47- San Tan Valley
hello mother and family! haha what did dad say about reminding me of vacations that i will be on next summer? i don't want to discuss my coming home date or anything but it's at the end of june not the beginning. just a heads up. how am i? i am doing just swell! yes it is definitely getting unbearably hot here. slowly but surely! we're usually at like 105ish. constantly. and it doesn't look like it's going to cool down! it is supposed to be one of the hottest summers ever! that is cool to hear about everyone coming over and seeing the home and asking so many questions. you never know how much of an effect you have on people with those pictures of Christ. i thought it was just totally normal growing up. now i go to houses and i'm like, "where are the pictures of Jesus?" especially during Christmas. Santa is just not as cool as Jesus. you can quote me on that. that sounds like a good quote. no didn't have any investigators this week at sacrament. it was a bummer.... but i got to go to a baptism yesterday! i will send you a picture. His name is Tony. he was in my last area. elder abramson and i taught him for about a month before i left. he was studly. he was one of those people that can recognize truth instantly. the story is actually pretty cool so i will tell it real quick.we were eating dinner with the randall family. we asked brother randall who it was outside working on his house. he told us it was one of his good friends that has helped him with projects around the house for years. we went outside and started talking to him and asked him if he would join us for our after dinner message. we decided to share our "temple presentation"(baiscally a video on the temple and some testimonies). he didn't have any questions but we felt inspired to talk about baptisms for the dead. not really something you always feel inspired to do. but we followed the spirit and did so. he told us that he had a few children pass away. the lesson was great and we asked him if he would meet with us again. two days later we taught the restoration. he knew it was true. those are the best kind of people! the people that recognize truth from the Holy ghost when it comes. he has been catholic his whole life so he understood the holy ghost. we invited him to be baptized. he looked distraught. we invited him again. he looked up and said something to the effect of, "I know this is true and i know i need to be baptized. but i have too many hurdles to jump before i can. i don't know if i can."we share our testionies and promised he could do it. he accepted a date. and then i left. it took him a few months to overcome his smoking problem, but he did it. the service was the most spiritual one i've ever been to. it was incredible. after he was baptized, he turned and gave bishop walker a hug (the guy who baptized him) and started crying. and so did the whole congregation. it was amazing! anyway... he's such an incredible guy. the most sincere guy you've ever met. so funny too. but a heart of gold. he just wants to do what's right no matter how hard it is.anyway... there's the story sorry it was a little long. the story doesn't do the experience justice. we don't bear our testimonies very often. always when we get into a new area though. we have the opportunity every hour of every day! you can't force anyone to share their testimony. you can invite but it won't do much either. when the spirit invites, that's when it's important. but yeah the fear gets in the way sometimes. just have to obey the spirit with courage.love, elder bronson

Week 46- San Tan Valley
(Memorial Day)
good morning to you too! mother and family! shoot i love the beach! i don't so much miss swimming as much as i do the beach. marcus is going to efy? what a stud. everyone says they go for the spiritual experience, and i hope they all do feel that way, but that wasn't necessarily my top priority when i went. "the power of every day missionaries" is an awesome book. i actually have not read it, but i know the principles taught in the book. i love it. i think one of the principles taught, if i remember correctly, refers to our outlook on who is ready to receive the gospel. sometimes we think, "man that family is perfect! they would make great members of the church!" when we should be thinking, "man! that woman is having a really hard time. the gospel would help her so much!" We should share the gospel with everyone, not matter what situation they are in, but sometimes we think that way. I was reading an incredible talk this week. it's not out of general conference or anything, but it is from Elder corbridge. It's called, "the fourth missionary." Basically teaches us what types of missionaries there are and what ones we should be. It really helped me understand the effect my mission CAN have on my life. Christ doesn't force change upon us. he invites us with open arms, and expects us to come unto him. "return unto me, and be converted, that i may heal you" or "follow thou me" or "come unto me all ye that labor..." he invites us to change. in order to allow your mission to take the most effect, you need to give it all to Him. leave nothing back. give all of your desires, passions, habits to him. and he will change you into what he wants you to be. We need to surrender our own will to the will of the Father. "offer our whole soul as an offering to him" (omni) like Christ submitted to his father. "not as i will, but as thou wilt." Christ is a perfect example of utter submission. "I came into the world to do the will of my father, because my father sent me." We need to put off the natural man (our own desires, passions, hobbies, future, expectations), and become as a child, "willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even as a child doth submit to his father." (mosiah 3:19). Alright preaching complete.Well good to hear you went out with the sister missionaries! if you help reactivate 2 people, you will get a baptism. statistically speaking. yeah it is so crazy that you can see her face. it's not even going to be a surprise at all whens he comes out. that's not even fair! you never got to know what we were going to look like! anyway love you much!

momma and fam.haha no more seminary, huh? happy day! sleeping in must be pretty great. i can't imagine!! that is so great that you only missed one day of seminary. whom the lord calls, he qualifies! even if that means qualifying you with a capable back and a healthy body! what the heck. kellie is graduating in a year? when you said that, i thought you were kidding. that is crazy to think about! does she want to go on a mission? is she thinking about it? tell her to start studying! i'm so grateful that the desire to study and learn the scriptures was instilled in me since youth! thanks to dad's scripture chase stuff! nothing is better than learning from the scriptures. they are the best. the book of mormon is true! "the church is true, the book is blue." Anyway... yes i got the forwarded email from christine moody. man she is the best! yes i keep in touch with mostly everyone. i don't email them every week. but probably once a month. I am also probably going back for a baptism at the end of the month. elder abramson and i taught a guy named "tony." he is getting baptized at the end of the month. it was awesome teaching him. he is catholic. We would teach him truths of the plan of salvation and restoration, he knew they were true. didn't even have to think about it. when he heard truths, he recognized them as truths. We were teaching him once and he was somewhat frustrated when we invited him to be baptized. we asked him what he was feeling, and he said something to the extent of, "I know this is true and i have to get baptized. It's just going to be really hard. But I know i have to." He had some things to overcome but he is ready to go now! what a stud! anyway... i get to see him get baptized at the end of the month. so pumped.next possible transfer is 3 weeks from wednesday. so not for a while. you're going out with the sister missionaries? that's awesome! for what? a lesson? i hope so. having good members there is one hundred percent essential. marcus is 5'7"? shoot. he's catching up. 6 more inches and he's got me. don't let him do it, mom. holy cow valerie had a kid? she got married like right when i left! you're going to israel and italy? shoot that is awesome. haha yes dad would definitely be mad if he knew you were talking about it. anyway... love you much! keep up the good work. i hope you get a new calling this summer so that you have no time off! but only because i love you! have a good week!Elder bronson

Our ladies team succumbed to a surprising 4-1 defeat against Leicester City Women at One Call Stadium this afternoon.
After a goalless first half, the visitors took the lead when Holly Morgan converted at point-blank range prior to the hour mark.
Katie Lowder, Kim Farrow and Summer Pratt sealed the win for The Foxes, before Emma Allen grabbed a consolation for The Stagettes.
The match was played in wet and windy conditions, on what was a thoroughly miserable afternoon in North Nottinghamshire.
The Stagettes had shot-stopper Emma Horsnall to thank for keeping the scores level early on, as she brilliantly kept out a drive from Rebecca Kemp in a one-on-one situation.
Farrow then fired wide as The Foxes started to dictate play, whilst The Stagettes' Kirsty Walton also had to make a vital last-ditch interception to prevent Chanelle Edkins.
The visitors should have gone ahead on 25 minutes, when Eleanor Towers found an unmarked Edkins on the edge of the six-yard box, who blazed horribly over.
Moments later, Farrow wasted yet another gilt-edge, as she capitalised on some slack defending by The Stagettes, but fired wide in a one-on-one.
Farrow came close again on 36 minutes, when she wrestled away from Catherine Davie on the edge of the area, but flashed a low shot wide.
The Stagettes almost broke the deadlock shortly after the re-start, as Walton's corner reached Becky Davis at the back-post, who stabbed an effort wide.
But in stormy conditions at One Call Stadium, the visitors took the lead on 56 minutes.
Kemp whipped a teasing cross into the six-yard box, and after Horsnall failed to claim the ball, Morgan was able to stab the ball home.
However, The Stagettes almost drew level instantly, as Jemma Douglas rattled the post with a stinging right-footed effort, following some good work by Georgina Williams.
But Leicester doubled their advantage as Lowder hit a low drive into the bottom-right corner from the edge of the area.
Matters then went from bad to worse for as The Foxes struck again on 65 minutes, when Farrow into the net, having already rounded Horsnall
By now, the match had become a case of damage limitation for The Stagettes, and Leicester showed no mercy whatsoever.
Pratt heaped more misery on our ladies, when she latched onto a through ball from Kemp and fired past Horsnall, to make it 4-0.
With 15 minutes remaining, The Stagettes pulled a goal back as Gemma Hodgkinson's clever near-post cross was powerfully headed home by Allen.
