- Have you looked for a technique that gives you the greatest
freedom in design, yet that is fast and accurate?
- Have you ever wondered how far you can go into detail
with your quilt?
- How wide can you stretch your wings when it comes
to creating your visions?
- Could this unique technique offer you a new window
into your creativity?
WHO IS THIS eBOOK FOR?
- Do you like appliqué, thread painting (or free motion broidery),
stained glass technique?
- Have you ever got frustrated with endless marking, cutting and
ironing your appliqué pieces?
- Have you ever ironed the wrong side of your appliqué piece
fusing it straight to your iron instead of the background?
- Have you ever forgotten to add the seam allowance to
your appliqué piece?
- Have you ever mixed up the thousand numbered tiny pieces?
- Have you ever wished to use delicate or textured fabrics
that were problematic with the fusible web?
- Have you ever had a fabric that was too thick or too dark to see
the design through the light box?
- Have you ever changed your mind about a fabric after the
whole piece was already put together?
- Would you like it if you did not need to unpick a lot of threads
when you make a mistake or you change your mind about
a colour?
- Would it help if you did not have to mark your quilt and pieces
more than once, at the very beginning of your process,
yet you knew exactly where each piece belongs?
- Would you be relieved if you did not have to bother with the
seam allowances for they would create themselves in the process?
If your answer is yes to any of these questions, my Draw-Sew-Trim (DST) method might be a helpful technique for you to try.

Algiers, LA
M.R. Pittman Group, LLC was a turnkey subcontractor for Healtheon in construction of new flood protection structures at the New Orleans Sewerage and Water Board Pump Station No. 13 in Algiers, LA. The project involved construction of multiple temporary retaining structures around an existing 30" high pressure gas main operated by Chevron. Cranes were mobilized via barge due to limited and restricted access to the work areas. Upon completion of the temporary retaining structures, M.R. Pittman excavated to expose the 30" high pressure gas main and drove 11,000 LF of steel H-Piling. New concrete T-walls were constructed in place taking great care as to not damage the 30" gas line which remained operational at all times. Reconstruction of the levees followed behind the temporary flood protection structures as this work was performed during hurricane season.

Our Manufacturing and Operations recruiting and consulting team maintains and grows a national network of professionals with experience across various industries and specialties. We understand the needs of our clients and are able to flexibly and cost effectively provide companies with the exact resources they need for their business. We assist clients in obtaining the talent and expertise they need by recruiting full-time hires, providing senior operations interim executives or expert consultants with specific operations, industry, or issue area expertise.
Manufacturing and Operations Trends Impacting Recruiting & Consulting
Our recruiting team partners with companies to understand the detailed skills needed and provides the right talent quickly, flexibly and affordably and often focusing on new skill sets needed by our clients.
Here are some of the key trends driving manufacturing and operations recruiting needs:
- Operational Executives With "Hands-On" Engineering Skills: Increasingly, companies are in need of operational leaders who can play "hands-on" roles in addressing issues and opportunities. Companies are looking for more than operational leaders who are versed in lean manufacturing techniques and manage from their office. There is an increasing need for recruiting executives who are engineers and have experience and know-how to work and mentor the engineering team and other employees.
- 3-D Printing: 3-D printing improves their outputs while decreasing waste. Where a single part might require a half-dozen pieces to be crafted and assembled, a 3-D printer can create the part in one piece. These printers also recycle their materials and greatly reduce time spent waiting for replacement parts. Recruiting executives and plant managers requires professionals that have skills and experience with incorporating 3-D printing.
- Internet of Things (IOT) Manufacturing in particular has benefited from how IoT has streamlined processes and simplified complicated work flows. With increased automation comes increased efficiency. This not only improves the capacity to focus on customer needs through better online support and mass customization, but it also provides insight into new revenue sources. The concept of "smart factory" enabled by containing data that connects CAD/CAM, suppliers, ERP, and production machinery and by the Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) allows manufacturing operation management and powerful new analysis. Recruiting Operations leadership that has the skills to leverage this capability is becoming an increasing need.

The Vaults of Terra are opening up this Saturday, with new stories taking you deep into the corruption at the heart of the Imperium.
The Vaults of Terra is a new series by Chris Wraight that showcases the insidious goings on in underbelly of Terra. It's every bit as corrupt and Machiavellian as you might expect, only there's an even greater horror to the story because the trail of an investigation leads an Inquisitor to the very doors of the Imperial Palace. With the Great Rift about to open wide, horror looms in the heart of Terra. Let's take a look.
via Warhammer Community
The Hollow Mountain continues Inquisitor Crowl's investigation that began in The Carrion Throne, as the corruption at the heart of Terra becomes plain. The inquisitor – ably assisted by his interrogator, Luce Spinoza – takes the initiative and uses the authority of his office to get inside the mysterious Hollow Mountain, home of the Adeptus Astra Telepathica. But dark times are coming to Terra. Far across the Imperium, great events are occurring that will have ramifications for the Throneworld and beyond, and Crowl will have to deal with the horrors that are unleashed as well as the terrors thrown up by his own work.
It sounds like we'll be getting a peek at what's really going on, not just with the Emperor, but with the Imperium Nihilus. And as more and more Primaris marines roll out in 40K, maybe we'll get a glimpse at what secrets they might hold. For now, here's what you missed in The Carrion Throne.
In the hellish sprawl of Imperial Terra, Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor Erasmus Crowl serves as a stalwart and vigilant protector, for even the Throneworld is not immune to the predations of its enemies. In the course of his Emperor-sworn duty, Crowl becomes embroiled in a dark conspiracy, one that leads all the way to the halls of the Imperial Palace. As he plunges deeper into the shadowy underbelly of the many palace districts, his investigation attracts the attention of hidden forces, and soon he and his acolyte Spinoza are being hunted – by heretics, xenos, servants of the Dark Powers, or perhaps even rival elements of the Inquisition itself. Soon they discover a terrible truth, one that if allowed to get out could undermine the very fabric of the Imperium itself.
The Hollow Mountain is up for pre-order this Saturday. So check back then for more!
What secrets are buried in the Hollow Mountain?

We are all busy people and taking time out for a conference or networking event costs us time away from our 'day job'. So, if you do make the time to attend an event, here are some ways to make the most digital impact from your time away from your desk.
Prepare in advance – follow the organisers and any of the keynote speakers or panellists announced in advance. Find out if there is an event hashtag, post to let people know you are attending and what you are looking forward to.
Engage on the day – post your thoughts, questions and photos throughout the event and ensure you use the event hashtag.
Connect live – when you meet people find them on Twitter or LinkedIn while you chat. They'll be able to confirm that you've found the right person and they are more likely to follow you back at the same time.
Follow up – post notes to people on social media. Let them know it was great to meet them, and virtually introduce them to people of interest. Then follow up with a DM or email to arrange a coffee.
Always use the event hashtag, and if it is part of a bigger day, then be sure to use the national or global hashtag as well, this will increase your impressions and help other attendees find you.
A few digital changes can really maximise the impact of your networking time, have you tried any of these tips? What worked best for you?

How to create a culture of collaboration in the workplace
A collaborative working environment is often what marks a really successful workplace out from those that are just good or ok. Genuine teamwork and the sharing of ideas sound like the simplest of solutions but the reality is that collaboration can be hard to achieve. At the heart of it all is creating processes, culture and values that ensure everyone understands the basics of getting along with others. This is a set of skills that can be learned and, without it, true collaboration in the workplace is virtually impossible to achieve.
Fostering understanding provides the foundation for collaboration
At the heart of improvement in collaboration is the need to understand what it is that drives each of the teams within the business. What are their goals, thought processes and biases and how do attitudes and systems differ from one team to the next? Your PR team might be motivated by finding the right story to give to the media but for the product team it's about understanding the customer or driving innovation. While the end goal for everyone is business success, each team is driven by different motivators and encouraging everyone to understand each other's will set your business up for better ongoing collaboration.
The importance of incentives
If you're looking to achieve change in the workplace then it's crucial to start by explaining why. What's the point of making these changes, what's in it for employees who become more collaborative and exactly what are you looking for employees to do differently? It may be important to sit down with different teams and get an understanding of what each of their incentives are and what would motivate them to do things differently. If you understand and structure your incentives well then you'll give staff the motivation to change until they start to see the benefits for themselves and the evolution becomes more natural.
Speaking the same language
It's not just in terms of goals and incentives that teams can differ but communication style too. Teams within the business may communicate very differently and this can create significant roadblocks to collaboration. The key is to recognise the differences, and why they exist, and then encourage everyone to find common ground so that there is a way of communicating that makes people feel like they are speaking the same language.
Celebrating the differences
Collaboration doesn't mean forcing everyone to be the same. Different teams within the business will necessarily do things their own way – in fact, that could be vital to overall success. Encourage staff to observe the way others within the business see the world, their roles, their issues and the enterprise as a whole. It's through observing without judgement that staff will gain a better understanding of each other and be able to find ways to work together, share and improve each other's working lives. The natural consequence of that will be improved productivity and results.
Collaboration doesn't necessarily come naturally to humans, especially within a classic business structure. However, it is worth the effort to foster it in the workplace, as it is where the secret to true business success really lies. Get in touch with Enterprise Study today to find out how we can help.

WTF Is It And Should You Try It? is an original A Plus Lifestyle series: Every now and then, we take a closer look at the lifestyle trends taking over our news feeds and find out whether they're worth the hype.
Maybe you set aside 45 minutes every other day to go for a run, catch a yoga class, or do some moves you learned from YouTube. Or, if you're nothing like me, you have a standing appointment with your spin instructor every day. Either way, there's no doubt that taking care of your body is an important part of being a healthy, happy human.
But, uh, what about your face? Are the weird, but remarkably fun skin care treatments you've been doing and the organic makeup routine you've switched to not enough? Does your face also need some workout attention?
The minds behind sexy salons like FaceLove Fitness and FaceGym definitely seem to think so. Facial exercises certainly aren't anything new, but these salons are making the practice more relaxing, luxurious, and appealing.
First things first: What even are face workouts?
The purpose of face workouts are to tone, sculpt, and tighten the face.
"The principle of facial muscle exercises is that you identify the specific muscle and work it, first by itself and later with your fingers to create resistance," cosmetic facial plastic surgeon Dr. Michelle R. Yagoda told A Plus. "The problem is that some muscle areas are difficult to work, and the movements may be exceptionally subtle." For this reason, Dr. Yagoda recommends having an expert supervise your technique.
"There are 57 muscles in the face [and neck] that can be toned and strengthened," Rachel Lang, esthetician and co-founder of FaceLove Fitness, told A Plus.
If you go in for a FaceLove session, you'll start working out those muscles by doing a warm up that releases tension in your neck, head, and shoulders. "[This] maximizes circulation to the muscles of the face," Lang said. "[And is] ultimately designed to enhance facial posture."
After the warm up, your trainer will instruct you to move your face in certain ways while practicing resistance. "This directs the muscles in an upward, lifted direction while improving circulation 10 times more than an inactive muscle, and over time has an accumulative effect just like exercising the body," Lang said.
Finally, you'll enter the cool down part of the session that aims to tone your facial muscles through massage.
The best part? One of the FaceLove instructors does most of the workout for you while you sit back and relax. "We call it the 'no workout, workout' because it's exercise, but we do most of it for you and you don't break a sweat," Lang said.
So, what're the benefits?
Facial exercise experts say their practices help tighten and tone your face by stimulating collagen production and preventing sagging.
"The muscles of the face are connected to each other as well as the bone structure and the skin they support, which is unique to the face. It is beneficial because, when one muscle group is toned, it has a ripple effect on other aspects of the face," Lang said. "For example, at FaceLove we designed a forehead exercise routine, which not only nourishes the skin of the forehead, but gives the eyes a lift too. The muscle holds strength and activity memory just like the muscles of the body, which is why both can be sculpted and defined with routine practice. When muscles are improved, the integrity of the skin is improved, including the functions and responsibilities such as absorption, protection and elimination."
"Our clients who come every week are insisting that they see a visual difference in their face posture and skin after four weeks," Lang said.
Should you try it?
The answer is ... well, it's complicated.
That's because there's a lot of conflicting information out there about whether these exercises actually work. No scientific studies have been done specifically on facial exercises, and experts have differing opinions.
Dr. Yagoda believes in the benefits. "These days, no one questions the assertion that you can get a fitter, younger-looking body by exercising your muscles, yet somehow, the notion that exercise can give you a fitter, younger-looking face is somehow surprising," she said. "Facial exercises can be rejuvenating. However, in order to be effective they must be customized and done consistently."
However, some experts think the benefits are overstated. I contacted distinguished facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Steven J. Pearlman's office who told me that facial workouts could potentially make matters worse:
"In terms of facial exercises, they would strengthen depressor muscles that pull down the jowls, cheeks, corners of the mouth, and create vertical neck bands. By strengthening the facial depressor muscles you would have the opposite effect of anti-aging and and would actually lead to your face looking older. The whole premise of Botox is that it relaxes muscles that have become overactive due to age and expression," Audrey Matney, the aesthetic coordinator for Dr. Pearlman, said. "Secondly, these exercises can stretch out the skin, causing loss of elasticity and fine lines."
Clearly, we need some scientific studies performed on facial exercises to straighten us all out. But, until then, you may just want to be your own guinea pig. All you have to do is sit back, relax, and wait for the facial trainer to finish working your face out.

Netsmart Forges Path to Coordinated, Integrated Care with its California Behavioral Health Clients
Company serves as knowledge, technology and coordinated care partner
Netsmart continues to provide knowledge leadership and collaboration-oriented technology solutions to county-based and private behavioral health and addiction services providers in California. Netsmarts innovative clinical and business solutions enable major California providers to furnish recovery-based, coordinated care to millions of people each day.
With our long-time experience in California and focus on innovation, we are pleased to help providers in California be successful in the face of an increased demand for services, complex and unique requirements, and a challenging funding and reimbursement environment, said Michael Valentine, chief executive officer, Netsmart.We also have the strategic vision and solutions to connect the dots toward a system of coordinated care that truly treats the whole person.
Examples of this comprehensive approach include:
Los Angeles County DMH Establishes New Era in County-Contract Provider Coordination In January, the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health (LACDMH) launched the Integrated Behavioral Health Information System (IBHIS).More than just an electronic health record (EHR), IBHIS is LACDMHs comprehensive behavioral health clinical, administrative and financial information system through which LACDMH coordinates behavioral health services for a county with a population of nearly 10 million.
In the next several months, more than 3,000 clinicians in the countys directly-operated programs will use a Netsmart CareRecord as the countys EHR. In addition, the IBHIS project includes new integration methodologies that facilitate electronic exchange of administrative and billing information to support the countys more than 600 contract providers. This interoperability solution will allow the contract providers to fully adopt health information technology and improve efficiencies by eliminating the need to key client information into multiple electronic health systems. With the full implementation of IBHIS, both county staff and contract providers will use IBHIS information in real time, providing coordinated care through instant access to comprehensive authorized health record information.
Netsmart Introduces the LACDMH Essentials Solution for Contract Providers
To support LACDMHs focus on interoperability, Netsmart introduces the LACDMH Essentials EHR packaged solution for contract behavioral health providers in the County of Los Angeles. The solution uses the countys well-defined requirements as the baseline for this systems features and functions. Built on the Netsmart CareRecord platform, it delivers a pre-configured system that uses the electronic data exchange mechanisms established by IBHIS and includes the clinical forms required by the county for providers. By pre-configuring the system, implementation time is minimized, providing a lower cost of ownership for contract providers.
The LACDMH Essentials solution also gives contract providers the convenience and continuity of utilizing the technology provider that manages both the countys system and a tightly-integrated provider EHR.
San Mateo County Leverages Data with Analytics
San Mateo County Behavioral Health & Recovery Services is using the Enlighten Analytics® solution provided by Netsmart to leverage clinical and financial data for strategic planning and day-to-day decision making. With Enlighten Analytics, San Mateo County is maximizing reimbursements, shortening revenue cycles, analyzing how many and what types of services they are providing, and making informed decisions about how to staff their clinics and what services to offer.
Tarzana Treatment Centers Ramps Up for Comprehensive Care Tarzana Treatment Centers is using Netsmart solutions to provide client-centered, whole-person, coordinated care.
Tarzana integrates primary and behavioral health data with the Netsmar tPrimary Care Module. The Module includes both primary care and behavioral health information in the same client CareRecord for a full picture of client health. Medical assistants, providers and billing staff use iPad® mobile digital devices for easy access to forms and data. Cases can be completed and signed off on quickly, and charges are posted immediately. The intuitive design of the Primary Care Module on the iPad shortens the staff learning curve and prevents the loss of productivity that often negatively impacts implementation of EHRs in primary care.
Tarzana also recently began using myHealthPointe.portal from Netsmart. The portal enables Tarzana clients to request appointments, reorder medications, and view their medical records and lab results online. These self-service options are designed to increase the level of satisfaction of Tarzana clients, enhancet he productivity of Tarzana staff and help Tarzana meet Meaningful Use Stage 2 requirements.
Tarzana is also implementing Netsmarts enhanced Treatment Plan to integrate primary care with substance use disorder and mental health treatment. This includes equipping clinicians to identify and treat co-occurring disorders such as diabetes,and addictions such as smoking.
Having all of a patients primary care and behavioral health problems addressable in a comprehensive treatment plan allows Tarzana staff from all disciplines to collaborate in caring for all of a patients health problems, said Jim Sorg, Ph.D., director of information technology at Tarzana.

1968 Summer Games: Previous Summer Games ▪ Next Summer Games
Host City: Ciudad de México, Mexico
Date Started: October 18, 1968
Date Finished: October 21, 1968
Events: 6
Participants: 125 (103 men and 22 women) from 18 countries
Youngest Participant: Yevgeny Kuzin (20 years, 107 days)
Oldest Participant: Lorna Johnstone (66 years, 52 days)
Most Medals (Athlete): 5 athletes with 2 medals
Most Medals (Country): West Germany and Great Britain (4 medals)
The dressage and jumping events were contested at the Campo Marte, an equestrian venue located next to the National Auditorium in Chapultepec Park in Mexico City. Eventing was held at the Club de Golf Avándaro located in the Valle de Bravo state, which was 180 km (110 miles) west of Mexico City. The club was built in 1959 and is now part of a resort in Valle de Bravo. At an altitude of 1,800m, it was famous for its mild climate, with a permanent breeze from a nearby lake, although tropical rain fell almost daily from October to March. The original choice for eventing was Oaxtepoc, 110 km south of the capital at a 1,450 metre altitude, but the stony surfaces and a subtropical climate forced the FEI to ask for an alternative.
As in 1964 the equestrian program consisted of the standard six events, with individual and team events in dressage, eventing, and show jumping. All events were open to both men and women, which started in 1964 when women were allowed to compete in eventing.
Eight nations won medals with the six events won by six different countries. Great Britain and the Federal Republic of Germany (West) won four medals, with the United States winning three.

This gluten free Berry Rhubarb Crisp is made with rhubarb and all your favorite berries and topped with an almond flour-based crumble that makes for the ultimate gluten free dessert.
Three cheers for berry rhubarb crisp! I've probably said this a million times, but ever since giving up chocolate, I've become a HUGE fan of fruit-based desserts. I mean, I already liked them, but now I love them and they tend to be my dessert of choice. As much as I love all things fall, I strongly prefer summer produce–give me all the berries! This gluten free berry rhubarb crisp screams summer and will get everyone in the mood for warm weather. *This post originally appeared in 2017, but has since been updated with new photos!
Ok so let's talk about the fact that this berry crisp is not only delicious, but it's vegan AND gluten free! Here's the thing: even if you yourself aren't vegan and/or gluten free, it's nice to have a dessert on hand for any friends/family/guests who might be. I'll admit that making gluten free cakes can be a little tricky, but making gluten free crisp is EASY, I promise.
So what makes this recipe vegan? Well, there's no egg in it and it uses dairy free butter. Essentially it's made with berries, "flour" and sugar. The topping uses brown sugar, and I've learned that not all brown sugar is created equal, so if you aren't sure if your brown sugar is vegan, simply use regular sugar instead. Ok, but what makes it gluten free? Instead of regular flour, it uses almond flour and arrowroot starch, both of which are gluten free.
- Chop and coat the berries: This recipe calls for blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, and rhubarb, so you'll have to chop both the strawberries and rhubarb so they're bite-sized. Otherwise, you'll be left with large chunks of those and you want them to be similar in size to the blueberries and blackberries. Once they're chopped, add them to a large bowl and then pour the arrowroot over top and use a spoon to stir everything together. You want the berries to be completely coated with arrowroot. SUBSTITUTION: if you don't have arrowroot, you can use tapioca flour instead.
- Make the topping: The topping consists of almond flour, brown sugar, dairy free butter and cinnamon (optional). Again, if you're strict vegan, use granulated/cane sugar instead of brown sugar. The cinnamon adds a nice touch, but it's optional depending on whether you like cinnamon+fruit together. You'll stir the dry ingredients together, then pour the melted butter over them and stir. The mixture should be a little chunky–that's a good thing!
- Add the topping and bake away: Pour the berries into your prepared dish (I used a pie pan) and then add the almond flour topping over the berries. You may need to use your hands to evenly distribute it, but you want the topping to be covering the berries. Last, bake the berry crisp for 35-45 minutes or until the berries are bubbling along the edges. Every oven is different, so I recommend checking the dessert after 35 minutes and going from there.
Gluten Free Berry Rhubarb Crisp
- 3 stalks rhubarb sliced
- 2 1/2 cups strawberries sliced
- 3/4 cup blueberries
- 1/4 cup blackberries
- 2 tbsp cane sugar
- 3 tbsp arrowroot starch
For the crumble topping:
- 1 1/4 cup almond flour
- 3/4 cup brown sugar*
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon**
- 1/3 cup butter melted***
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Add fruit (you can use fresh or frozen) to a large bowl and add sugar and arrowroot; stir to combine and then set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Melt butter and pour overtop of almond flour mixture and stir.
- Grease a pie pan or baking dish with a bit of coconut oil and then pour fruit mixture into it. Pour almond flour crumble on top of fruit, making sure it's evenly distributed.
- Bake dessert for 35-45 minutes, or until fruit is bubbling around the edges and the top is golden brown.
- Remove from oven, wait 5-10 minutes before digging in; it's delicious eaten on its own or with ice cream, just saying!
- Enjoy!
**Cinnamon is optional
***Use dairy free butter to make this dessert vegan

And the winner in Mexico's presidential contest is… Señor Blank-o!
The official count of the ruling party is: 36.38% and 35.34% for the challenger.
Or, to put names and numbers to it: The Bush-o-philiac candidate, Felipe Calderón, collected 402,000 more votes than Bush-bashed Andrés Manuel López Obrador. But the big winner was Mr. Blank "" the 827,000 ballots without a mark for president.
I smell something rotten… eau d'Ohio, vintage 2004. In that state, as in Mexico this week, the presidential "winner," George Bush, had victory margin smaller than the combined "undercount" (blank ballots) and rejected and mangled ballots.
Blank ballots are rarely random — in the USA, nearly 88% were cast in 2004, notably, in minority areas, the result of bad voting machines. That is, Democrats' ballots "spoil" and "blank out" a heck of a lot more often than Republican ballots. What about in Mexico?
I intend to find out. As soon as I saw the "official" vote count, I booked a plane to Mexico City. I'll be there to tomorrow to join our investigators on the ground — and to fill in the blanks.
And what about the "spoiled" vote — ballots rejected, lost, mangled? Well, some are sitting in dumpsters in Veracruz State which is controlled by the old ruling PRI. (There's a darn good chance that the PRI, hoping to stave off its extinction, played a bigger role than Calderón's PAN in shoplifting votes from challenger López Obrador.)
In a prior missive, I noted that the Bush Administration, under the guise of a secret War on Terror contract, hired ChoicePoint Inc. to filch the voter and citizen files of Mexico. These are the same characters (the Bushes and ChoicePoint) who helped purge Florida's voter rolls of African-Americans before the 2000 race. Were the Mexican rolls "scrubbed" with Dubya's help? And what exactly was the International Republican Institute, the imperial arm of the GOP, doing down there? Shouldn't someone ask? Shouldn't someone investigate?
Too many uncounted votes, too many blocked voters, too many statistics missing from the official tallies to jump to the automatic conclusion of US mainstream media, that this election was Mexico's first "clean" vote. It may look clean and neat from the Intercontinental Hotel in Mexico City where reporters shuttle from bar to press conference. But sniffing into the garbage piles and ballot piles of Veracruz, it smells more like Ohio con salsa.

While chemists still had to admit an essential distinction between the "organic" of organic chemistry, and the "organized" of organisms, and so leave the study of the organization and functioning of organs to anatomy and physiology, the fact that substances found in living beings were composed of the same elements and obeyed the same laws as mineral chemistry nevertheless allowed them to establish a foothold in animal and vegetable physiology. It likewise became perfectly legitimate to talk of "applied chemistry" with respect to agriculture, physiology, medicine, etc.
The twentieth century saw economic and industrial rationality raise chemistry up to its highest point, demanding the substitution of natural materials by those produced in the laboratory. This process of substitution has at one and the same time been chemistry's greatest blessing and its most profound curse. In a sense, one can argue that pharmacy was a precursor of this industrial development, as it enjoyed its own kind of "chemical revolution" as early as the sixteenth century. It was in this period that Paracelsian pharmacists tried to add chemical remedies, often composed of metallic salts, to the range of plant and animal extracts that constituted the traditional pharmacopoeia.

Alan Man
University of California Berkeley, Haas School of Business
"An open-minded, determined and caring CPA/Lawyer who is passionate about advocating for LGBTQ inclusion."
Hometown: Auckland, New Zealand
Fun Fact About Yourself: I love hugs! You will know this about me as soon as we meet, because I will (and I mean, I will) go in for the hug!
Undergraduate School and Major: University of Auckland, Bachelor of Law and Bachelor of Commerce (double major in accounting and management)
Most Recent Employer and Job Title:
Ernst & Young– Senior Consultant, International Tax
Describe your biggest accomplishment in your career so far: My greatest achievement has been the positive impact I have had on the LGBTQ community through fostering inclusion at EY and beyond.
At EY, I established and chaired the Western Australia LGBTQ affinity group. Through my advocacy, I was able to quickly create a more positive working environment for the 650+ employees in the state. Then, because of the significant impact made, I was selected from over 6,000 nominations worldwide as the Oceania winner and Global finalist of EY's 2016 "Better Begins with You" awards.
Outside of work, I was a board member of Living Proud, a non-profit that has supported the Western Australia LGBTQ community for almost 40 years. I also founded Perth's Interfirm committee, a network of LGBTQ champions from 25+ professional services firms who work together to drive LGBTQ inclusion in the workplace.
What quality best describes the MBA classmates you've met so far and why? I have been surprised by how open and honest my classmates have been. We have had so many meaningful conversations. Because of this, I feel as though I have known my classmates for longer than just a few weeks. It has helped me to feel comfortable and supported as we all embark on this MBA journey.
Aside from your classmates, what was the key factor that led you to choose this program for your full-time MBA and why was it so important to you? Aside from my amazing classmates, the key factor would have to be the Defining Leadership Principles: Question the Status Quo, Confidence without Attitude, Students Always, and Beyond Yourself. I am so excited to be a part of, and contribute to, the culture at Haas and to be part of an organization that has values which truly represent my own values. Each principle has a place in my heart – talk to me about which defining principle I identify with the most because I will give a different answer each time. (I identify with each of them so much!)
What club or activity are you looking most forward to in business school?
I am most excited to drive LGBTQ inclusion and awareness through Q@Haas (our LGBTQ club). Haas has people from all walks of life who will go on to do outstanding things, so I feel that I have an opportunity to raise awareness among these leaders so they might go on to help in leading progress for LGBTQ people around the world.
What led you to pursue an MBA at this point in your career? After six years gaining accounting and legal skills in the world of taxation, I came to appreciate how passionate I am about helping my clients solve problems and succeed commercially (and not just from a tax perspective). For me, business school represents a transformative two years of study which will allow me to pivot to a different industry, location, and function while still utilizing my existing skillset.
And on a personal note – after a year of being in a long-distance relationship, business school also enables me to be in the same place as my husband, who started his MBA at Stanford GSB last year.
How did you decide if an MBA was worth the investment? I simply trust that this experience will be worth it because of the thousands of others that have gone through the same MBA journey with no regrets. I have spoken to a number of alumni who have genuinely expressed to me that Berkeley Haas has been the best experience of their life.
What other MBA programs did you apply to? Stanford GSB, Berkeley Haas, Yale SOM. As you can see from the programs I applied to, I was intentional in applying for programs with a smaller class size because I wanted the advantages of a small class size.
How did you determine your fit at various schools? In deciding which school to attend, I used both quantitative and qualitative methods of analysis. How typical MBA of me! I had a weighted-average spreadsheet that listed a number of factors that were important to me. I also wrote a personal journal entry outlining what was important to me. The factors I considered were broadly: People/Fit, Learning Environment, Extracurriculars, Post-MBA considerations, Cost, and Proximity to Significant Other.
After all this analysis however, I just went with my gut based on the place I felt the closest connection to and based on where I thought I would be happiest.
What was your defining moment and how did it shape who you are? At the age of 17, as an early entry college student, I volunteered for a three-month internship in Kenya. It was, and still might be, the most challenging experience of my life.
Within a month of visiting, I was mugged in broad daylight. Weeks later, violent riots erupted across Kenya due to national elections. Even though I feared for my safety and was asked to come back home, I stayed because I wasn't going to let the team down.
By persevering, I ended up meeting the most amazing, warm-hearted people – many of whom left a mark on me. Through my experiences in Kenya, I realized that, despite my Chinese immigrant upbringing, I was so privileged to grow up in a safe, stable and economically thriving country like New Zealand. Later, this realization turned into a drive to help others, to make a difference and to create a better world for those around me.
What do you plan to do after you graduate? Who knows! There are so many amazing opportunities at Berkeley Haas and beyond.
Where do you see yourself in five years? I thought long and hard about this question and the most truthful answer is that I hope to be living my best life with my husband and (future) kids. Family is so important to me. Even though I genuinely don't know what the future holds for me career-wise, I am excited because as long as I have my family around me, everything else will be ok!


text: Reading a paper by Jack Duggal called Rigor without Rigidity – How to Achieve Balance this week, I found it a bit absurdly comical when he compared the process of raising children to that of a successful implementation of a project management process. I suppose the correlation works if you view raising a child without the emotional attachment of love and compassion. The ultimate project, one spanning longer than the Project Managers own life time (since we all hope that our children out live us), intensely complex; requiring an extreme amount of patience and fortitude. Mr. Duggal states "Whether you are trying to bring up your child in a disciplined environment, or you are trying to implement the discipline of a project management practice, you go through a similar struggle. To bring about the discipline you need the rigor of standards and process…a primordial paradox between the need for discipline and freedom at the same time." Some aspects of his arguments I agree with and make a bit of sense to me. Sure we need to allow our teams freedom to blossom and grow as we do our children, yet they need to know there will be consequences for poor decisions as our children do as well. But I also disagree with his arguments. In no way do I rationalize my team members as my children! My team is composed of full grown adults that have hopefully been given the tools to survive in society by their own parents. When we start taking on the roll of parent to our team members we start asking far too much of ourselves. In fact, the maternal side of me wants to reach through the paper I'm reading and smack Mr. Duggal! I glance over at my infant son and laugh a bit. I wish the decisions I'll have to make as his mother in the years to come were as easy as choices I'll make as a Project Manager! Do I have any readers that are parents out there? What do you think? Absurd or agreeable?

BOULDER, Colo. -- A Boulder resident hosted a very unwelcome guest Thursday night when a mountain lion managed to find its way inside the home in the 400 block of Marine Street.
Police tweeted a photo of the giant cat sitting between a couch and coffee table. The homeowner says the mountain lion entered the home through a screen window and police were called after a roommate returned to find the scary surprise.
Last night, a mountain lion entered a home on Marine St through a screen door, No people were injured but a house cat was killed. Please keep ground level doors and windows closed and locked at night and when you are not home. (This is also good advice for bears and burglars.) pic.twitter.com/cGseNpx2LI
— Boulder Police Dept. (@boulderpolice) August 10, 2018
"Yeah, he said it was terrifying," said Kayla Slaughter, the homeowner. "It looked right at him and licked his lips and he (roommate) took off. I do have a picture of the mountain lion laying on the couch. It looks like it's watching TV."
The family's house cat, Klondike was stuck inside. Sadly, she was eaten.
"She was fine and that is hard, that it's the end that she had," said Slaughter.
It was heartbreaking for the Slaughter's, but getting the mountain lion out was an even bigger concern. Neighbors watched as police and wildlife officers shot beanbags at windows.
"It was kind of amazing. It was sort of like looking at a zoo exhibition but you're looking at a house," said Jessie Frankel, a neighbor.
"It's just violating that this animal had free reign of our house for three hours," added Slaughter.
Authorities finally managed to coax the animal out of the front door. He walked down the street and back into the woods.
Police urge homeowners to keep ground level doors and windows closed and locked at night and when you leave the house.

You're probably in the habit of regularly posting content to a wide range of marketing channels, including your website and social media pages. However, when you have your fingers in many different pies, your marketing drive could easily unravel into an unruly mess.
This is particularly true with your company's tone of voice. This should be kept consistent throughout your content – but why and how should you ensure this? Here are a few pointers.
What does "tone of voice" actually mean?
You might have long assumed that you know what exactly constitutes "tone of voice". However, it can be easy to confuse "tone" with "voice", that you may too often mistake one for the other. You need to realise that "tone of voice" is more than just your corporate "voice"…
The latter refers to your brand's personality, as Twitter explains. Depending on what exactly your firm does, you probably settled on its brand at an early stage. A law firm, for example, could adhere to a very formal brand, while a purveyor of ice creams is likely to favour a much quirkier style.
"Tone", meanwhile, concerns how you might apply the voice in particular contexts. To this end, while your social media content may use a casual and conversational style in keeping with how people typically use these platforms, your tone could turn more serious when you are handling customer grievances.
Why should your tone of voice be kept consistent?
As we have made clear, you might want to slightly vary your tone of voice depending on when and where you use it. Nonetheless, there should remain a significant degree of consistency in how you deliver that tone of voice – and there are good reasons why.
One reason is that, as the Content Marketing Institute explains, it can make your voice more distinct and recognisable – and thus, easier to differentiate from competitors' voices.
Furthermore, when a customer sees a company using the same tone of voice across multiple channels, it can help to give this customer the impression that the company is consistent and reliable.
Just say the word – but the right word
When crafting your tone of voice, you should carefully consider your target audience. If you wish to reach out to people of various reading levels, you are advised to stick to shorter words, as these will be easier to understand. However, longer words can have their place; they hint at sophistication and nuance.
All of this still leaves the question of when you ought to use jargon. Keep in mind that the phrases you use should not conceal the truth and induce confusion; it should be jargon that your target audience would easily comprehend. The right jargon can be time-efficient and foster the feel of a specialised community.
As Business 2 Community says, striking the right tone of voice can see you balancing between formal and casual – or you might prefer to think in terms of seriousness and humour. Regardless, here at Tunafish we can help you to strike just the right balance with your own creative content.

Sandbox:Property editor
Property editor

This documentation is not finished. Please help and contribute documentation.
Gui Command explains how tools should be documented. See Draft ShapeString for an example of a well documented tool. Browse Category:UnfinishedDocu to see incomplete pages like this one. See Category:Command Reference for all commands.
See WikiPages to learn about editing the wiki pages, and go to Help FreeCAD to learn about other ways in which you can contribute.
The Property Editor is one of the most important tools of FreeCAD and a main element while working with FreeCAD. The Property Editor allows managing the properties of the objects in your document.
Generally the Property Editor is intended to deal with just one object at one time. The values shown in the Property Editor belong to the active object of your active document (be careful of which document is really active if you work on multiple documents). If you did not select any element (or there are no elements), the Property Editor will be blank.
The properties of an object are grouped in View properties and Data properties, and shown under different tabs.
The Property Editor has two tabs: the View tab and the Data tab.
- The Data tab allows modification of the physical parameters of an object. See Data Properties
- The View tab provides access to the properties related to the visual display of the object. See View Properties
Data Properties
The picture above shows the Data properties of a PartDesign Box feature. The Data properties hold the parameters that are characteristically for a parametric CAD system. The length of the box can be changed at clicking into the edit field beneath the Length attribute and giving it a new value. The box will visibly change its length in the 3D-view at leaving the input field. At some other object a visible changes happens with any edit action.
The input field provides three methods to set the length.
- The little arrows at the right side, let us dial the value per mouse click. In this case the value changes in tenth of millimeter.
- By direct editing of the input field. The input field has a number with a dimensional unit. Both can be edited. So the length can be set to 3 inches with an input of 3 in. This is part of the quantity system of FreeCAD. It allows input of different quantities and supports calculation of the number with standard mathematical formulas like "3*pi cm". The formula will be calculated at setting the input and replaced by the result. There exist certain limitations regarding the displayed decimal numbers and setting of a value with more than a few decimal numbers. See [#Limitations]
- By giving an parametrically expression at clicking at the small blue symbol which opens the expressions dialog. The Expressions allow to input a formula with references to other objects in the document. The result of this formula will be updated whenever the referenced object is changed.
Not all the properties can be modified in any moment. Depending on the specific status, some properties will be shown as read-only. This is often the case for the placement, which is inherited from a parent object, and can only be modified inside of the parent object. The placement may be difficult to manage from the property editor. It is easier to click on Picture and open the Placement dialog in the task-panel.
Different objects may have different sets of properties. These are explained in the help-page of these objects.
However, some properties are common among most objects. The attribute Label can be set to an arbitrary name, that is than shown in the tree view of the document. The object has still an internal name, that can not be changed after creation of the object.
View Properties
The view properties define how the model is shown in the 3D-View.
- ViewAngular Deflection and ViewAngular Deflection do define the tessellation of the model for rendering in the 3D-view. Tessellation means that all curved surfaces and curved edges are approximated by facets and polygons respectively. Smaller values of both parameters causes smaller facets at the cost of computing power. Both values can here be set per Body. There are corresponding global values in the Preferences under PartDesign → Shape view. These settings do also influence the export of the shapes to meshes like stl for 3D-printing.
- ViewBounding Box adds a frame around the model, visualizing its largest extent in the main axes.
- ViewDraw Style is a helpful setting, that allows to show only a wire frame instead of a filled body. Hidden edges can easily be selected in wire frame mode.
- ViewLighting is helpful in debugging broken solids. Sometimes faces are wrong orientated. Setting Lighting to one side shows the backside of a face in black, so that a problem can be identified.
- ViewShape Color is the setting of the color of the whole shape. There exist a special menu entry, which allows further settings of the appearance of the shape. View → Appearance.
- ViewTransparency lets appear the shape more or less transparent.
The default value for the decimals shown in the data properties is two. So it looks like, as if the value of the object can not be set to a higher accuracy as two decimals. This is not the case but there are certain limits. The number of decimals can be changed in the Preferences up to 12 under General→Units . This setting is used by several functions, like the measurement tools available in FreeCAD. At need of accurate measurements this setting should be used to show the number of needed decimals.
The next limit is the accuracy of the geometric model, which is defined by a relative tolerance parameter of the CAD-kernel. This value is typically in the magnitude of 1e-8.
For certain objects like the PartDesign Additive Box the input number is rounded to four decimals before applying the setting in the Property editor. The dialog, that opens at double clicking the Box in the tree-view rounds the input to two decimals. So it is not possible to set a higher accuracy with this dialog.
This is no problem for most technical parts, but in certain cases more decimals may be needed. A workaround is to set the Length in the python console. This method allows to set the Length of the Box to the limits given by the CAD-kernel. The field in the Property editor may show a higher accuracy, when set to 12 decimals. But the Length in the model is limited by the CAD-kernel. This can be seen at measuring the Length with the measurement tools.
Property definition
A property is a piece of information like a number or a text string that is attached to a FreeCAD document or an object in a document. Properties can be viewed and modified with the Property editor.
Properties play a very important part in FreeCAD, since it has been designed to work with parametric objects, which are objects defined only by their properties.
Custom scripted objects in FreeCAD can have properties of the following types:
Boolean Float FloatList FloatConstraint Angle Distance Integer IntegerConstraint Percent Enumeration IntegerList String StringList Link LinkList Matrix Vector VectorList Placement PlacementLink Color ColorList Material Path File FileIncluded PartShape FilletContour Circle
