Following a nationwide search, Utah Valley University officials are pleased to announce that Dr. Jared Sumsion will become the university's new athletic director. Sumsion served recently as the interim athletic director, and prior to that as senior associate athletic director for external operations.
"UVU's national search for a new director of athletics produced some truly talented candidates. After a thorough review, our search committee found that Jared demonstrated the commitment and track record on exceptional leadership, care, and results that align with UVU's values and direction," said President Astrid S. Tuminez. "He places our student-athletes at the heart of all that he does. He will usher in a new era of athletic excellence at UVU."
As the new athletic director, Sumsion will also serve as associate vice president of athletics. He will oversee 16 Division I sports involving 330 student-athletes and 84 staff, fundraising efforts, and the elevating of UVU's national profile.
In his position as senior associate athletic director, Sumsion oversaw the enhancement of current revenue streams, major gift fundraising, annual giving, donor relations, corporate partnerships, and strategic planning. He oversaw marketing, branding, licensing, major events, media relations, game operations, and ticket sales.
"During his tenure at UVU, Jared has proven he's the right person for this challenging job. He made that even more apparent with the leadership he provided over these past few months," said Val Peterson, vice president of finance and administration. "His commitment to UVU and the success of our student-athletes is boundless, and I look forward to seeing our athletics thrive under his leadership."
Before becoming athletic director, Sumsion was also the administrator for UVU's baseball, men's soccer, women's soccer, men's & women's cross-country, men's & women's indoor and outdoor track & field teams, and wrestling programs.
"I'm extremely grateful for the opportunity and trust that the university has shown me," Sumsion said. "UVU transformed my life. I love this university and what it's meant to my family and me. I'm ready to hit the ground running. Our student-athletes and staff are second to none. We have an incredible fan base and devoted community, and together we will do amazing things."
Prior to his time in athletic administration, Sumsion served as the assistant to former UVU President William A. Sederburg. In that position, Sumsion was a part of the administrative team that oversaw the institution's transition from state college to university. Additionally, from 2001-2005 he worked as a surgical assistant for Intermountain Healthcare, specializing in orthopedics.
He received a bachelor's degree from UVU, where he served as student body president. He holds a master's degree in business administration and a doctorate of education in organizational leadership with a minor in conflict resolution.
A native of Springville, Utah, Sumsion and his wife, Stephanie, have four children.

List all of your major products or services. For each
What qualities do you need in a location? Describe the type of location you'll have.
One of the main factors to consider while starting up a business is the products and services the business intends on offering to its customers (Macy's, 2017). It's also always advisable to offer products which fall under the basic necessity category. This is due to them being basic necessities and consumers prioritizing their purchase even during times of economic hardship (Kumar, 2008, p. 49). Macy has opted to specialize in offering affordable and high quality fashion clothing which allows the business to fall under the basic need category which helps ensure a stable client base. In addition to this Macy also offers unique house hold products and accessories which customers purchase if required. Clothing continues to be the main product offered by Macy's due to it being a basic requirement and most working class people needing to good clothing from well-recognized brands for their daily office use as well as for special occasions.
Today most people are growing financially stable and his results in them demonstrating their stability by wearing globally recognized clothing brands. Macy's has managed to distribute its stores across the globe but more importantly, has developed a powerful e-commerce website which can be accessed by customers from across the globe for their shopping (Warren, 2011, p. 515). Unlike most other e-stores which have subsidiary websites for each country, Macy's has a single website from where all customers shop. All products are then shipped from the USA to their customers across the globe which helps deliver an added feeling of prestige. This also means the customer is likely to purchase unique products which are not available on the global market thus helping set them apart from the common person.
Unlike most other e-stores like eBay which focus on selling their products at the lowest possible price, Macy's has always placed its main focus on delivering the very best quality (Allen & Wilburn, 2002, p. 92). All products sold by Macy's have under gone a strict quality check and audit before being listed and strict guidelines set for suppliers.Targeted Customers
This has resulted in Macy's targeting the middle-income groups who are capable of affording reputed brands and who are looking to purchase the best and highest quality. The majority of Macy's customers are from the working and business classes but an increasing number of sales are being generated from emerging countries like China, India, Brazil and South Africa. This is due to a growing population of people having surplus money in the emerging markets which result in them wanting to purchase top ranked brands so as to establish and display their social stature (Armstrong, Adam, Denize, & Kotler, 2014). By focusing on delivering high quality and the middle-income groups, the brand has been able to register continued growth and rapid international trade from customers in emerging markets looking to purchase unique brand clothing not available in their own markets.Macy's Client Demographics
Having targeted the middle-income groups who happen to also be the largest income groups globally, Macy's has managed to secure a huge client following across both developed and developing nations. Today Macy's has over 700 stores in the USA and several other major cities but online clients constitute to a larger number of sales as compared to their walk in customers. This has resulted in most Macy's sales being generated from internet shoppers mainly from Europe and emerging economies like China, India, South Africa and Brazil.
Macy Inc. is today ranked as being among the largest and most successful retailers globally and this is directly associated with the brand's product choice and focusing on specialization. Most other stores will have a huge verity of products which makes it difficult to monitor quality. Macy's has focused its attention on offering a basic necessity product and focusing its attention on just this one product and how to market, sell and ship them to customers across the globe (Bednarz, 2011). This is rare among online stores where they avoid shipping abroad. This has limited the options customers have of shopping abroad online which have given Macy's a competitive advantage.
With regard to its stores, Macys also spends adequate time strategically planning its expansion so as to maximize the store's exposure to customers (Church & Murray, 2009). Macy's focusing on several factors before selecting any store to expand to which also help improve the store's rate of success.
Space plays an important role while selecting any store as this determines the number of products that would be put on display as well as how clearly they can be displayed at the store. Macy's prioritized leasing stores meaning between 300-500 square yards which allow for adequate space to display their products as well as adequate space for customers to use while in the store. Offering clear displays helps also increase the number of sales as many customers are likely to see something they like and decide on purchasing it even while they had not planned to make the purchase
It's also important that the store is located at a famous and modern building as well as being located in the business district so as to maximize the number of customers visiting the store. Macy's prioritized on selecting stores within large shopping malls to which customers have easy access thus helping improve accessibility and the number of customers visiting the store.
It's also important that the store has access to a constant power supply and amenities which will ensure customers remain comfortable at all times while visiting the store (Bank, 2015, p. 74).

Turn holiday shoppers and diners into year-round customers
The holidays are upon us, and with that comes most retailers' – and even many restaurants' – highest-trafficked days of the year. As a business owner, you probably look forward to seeing some of your regulars turn to you for holiday tasks like gift-sourcing and party-hosting, but did you know that 32% of stores' holiday traffic actually comes from first-time buyers? That's a potential 32% increase in your customer base if you do the work to retain them in the new year.
Likewise, between holiday parties and festive post-shopping meals, most restaurants, too, see some of their busiest shifts and highest sales in December. Many of these gatherings bring in first-time diners as well. So if you play your cards right, you have a serious opportunity to turn those office party-goers into regulars.
What goes into a strong customer retention plan? We'll cover just that, but here's a preview:
Collect and segment data to create personalized marketing campaigns
Gone are the days of letting someone sign their receipt without getting a little more information out of them (or at least doing your best to!). When you collect – at minimum – a customer's name and email address, you can create their profile in your point of sale, now allowing you to track all of that customer's activity. You'll be able to analyze their shopping or dining preferences, how often they visit and when, how much they spend, even specific products or menu items they're drawn to. Then, you can use that data to craft personalized messaging, either through email, text, social media or retargeting ads.
Hit customers who purchased Brand X with an email or text as soon as a new shipment arrives. Reach out to anyone who bought a scarf with visuals that share ideas for how to style it. Target those who purchased a gift card with a reminder to spend them. Even if these items were gifted, it will still get your brand name back in front of the original buyer.
If you're a restaurant, experiment with personalizing your emails and text marketing.
We mean that literally: Put the recipient's name in the subject line. According to Experian, doing so increases open rates by 26%. That's how you stand out in crowded inboxes.
Learn more best practices for collecting customer data.
Offer bounceback coupons and gift cards
Secure repeat purchases and encourage upselling with bounceback promotions. A bounceback promotion rewards a customer for their current purchase, by offering a discount on a future purchase. For example, you could advertise that for every $100 a customer spends in December, they receive a $20 coupon to use in January. Similarly, consider offering a gift card promotion: Buy a $50 gift card as a gift, receive a $10 gift card for yourself.
Once the new year hits, run a point of sale report of all customers who took advantage of these promotions, and send an email or text to remind them that the window to spend their voucher has opened.
Note: If you have an ecommerce site, make any promotions you offer offline redeemable online as well. An omnichannel point of sale makes this easy.
Incentivize customers with loyalty points
If you don't have one set up already, it's time to consider a customer loyalty program. These provide a clear incentive for repeat business, all while adding additional data to your collection efforts. They can be as complex as a tiered points reward program, or as simple as a birthday promo. No one likes letting a deal go to waste — a quick email coupon is a surefire way to bring a past customer back through your doors.
Loyalty members are 4x more likely to be repeat customers than non-loyalty members, and letting them know why you're asking for their information develops trust.
Just remember: your loyalty program must be integrated with your point of sale system to help you monitor levels of customer engagement and help you respond accordingly.
Enhance the staff experience to nurture customer relationships
The holidays are busy and stress levels are high. It's easy for staff to let their guard down and deliver a less-than-pleasant response if they encounter a tough new customer. But 59% of people won't return to a business after a bad customer service experience. That means a single negative interaction could cause you to lose someone who otherwise may have turned into a loyal customer.
Providing an excellent customer experience should be your highest priority, and that starts with providing an excellent staff experience.
Make sure you're establishing a clean and safe working environment for them, and ask for their feedback to make sure you're in alignment about what that looks like. Have regular check-ins, show your appreciation and respect their time. Get your schedules done early, and be sure you are staffed appropriately for peak days and times (use your POS data from last year to determine these).
Here are some additional tips for managing stress and staff morale. The higher the staff satisfaction, the higher the customer satisfaction.
Refresh for the new year
If you're a retail store, get your holiday decor packed up and window displays refreshed by the first week in January. Mark down leftover seasonal merchandise and move it to the back to make room for new arrivals your holiday shoppers haven't seen. Don't have new inventory yet? That's ok. Remerchandise what you have and create fresh displays with a nod to other upcoming winter holidays and themes, like Valentine's Day or cold-weather getaways.
If you're a restaurant, change up your menu. That doesn't have to be an entire overhaul — consider adding some specialty cocktails or just a few new-year dishes. Think about what people are craving in January — they probably have resolutions on their minds and want some health-conscious options! Advertise that these additions are here for a limited time only to instill a sense of urgency. And while you're at it, this is a great time to consider saying goodbye to menu items that may no longer be performing well. You can pull these metrics from your restaurant point of sale, as well.
This season is busy for everyone, but don't skimp on these customer retention strategies if you want to welcome your holiday customers back in the new year (and who wouldn't?!).
Remember: Quick, secure and convenient checkout experiences play a large part in boosting brand loyalty. Learn more about our flexible payment processing and point of sale solutions for every budget.

With its many rivers, lakes, and beautiful open spaces, the Yuba Sutter region is an outstanding destination for anyone looking to spend time outdoors. These two Central Valley counties, located about 45 minutes north of Sacramento, might be better known for their agricultural traditions, but whether you're into bicycling, hiking, fishing, or birding, you'll find plenty of uncrowded activities.
Stretching from the flatlands of the Central Valley and into the Sierra Nevada foothills, the Yuba Sutter region encompasses a wide variety of environments. Bullards Bar Reservoir, situated off State Highway 49 in Tahoe National Forest, has more than 60 miles of shoreline and earned acclaim as one of the country's top recreational lakes from Water Ski Magazine. Watercraft rentals are available at the marina, and anglers come to this lake on the North Yuba River (formed by the New Bullards Bar Dam) for outstanding trout and Kokanee salmon fishing, as well as its big populations of largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass.
Where to Hike in the Yuba Sutter Region
Hikers can explore the lake and surrounding pine forests on trails ranging from short routes ideal for children to the 14-mile Bullards Bar Trail. There's so much to do that you might want to spend a few days at the lake, whether you get together with a group of friends and rent a houseboat, or pitch a tent at one of the reservoir's many campgrounds. There's more recreation on the water and along 24 miles of shoreline at Englebright Lake, where the campsites are boat-in only and you can rent houseboats and smaller craft at the marina.
The region is also home to the Sutter Buttes—dubbed "the world's smallest mountain range." This distinctive set of eroded volcanic peaks rise from the valley floor to an elevation of 2,132-feet. Because the range is on private land, trail access is limited to guided outings led by Middle Mountain Interpretive Hikes.
Where to Bike in Yuba Sutter
A mostly flat bicycling loop circles the Sutter Buttes, and the annual Bike Around the Buttes fundraising event lets you pedal along four different routes before the ride culminates in a celebratory lunch with live music. If you're looking for a short and easy ride, the Sutter Commuter Bikeway travels through farmland as it follows the onetime route of the Sacramento Northern Railroad on a scenic, mostly car-free 10-mile roundtrip with views of the Sutter Buttes.
Wildlife Spotting in Yuba Sutter
The region's many wildlife refuges and preserves give visitors a chance to enjoy a diverse range of outdoor activities. At the 11,900-acre Spenceville Wildlife Area adjacent to Beale Air Force Base, a 5.3-mile loop open to hikers, mountain bikers, and equestrians leads to two waterfalls. The wildlife area is also a popular destination for fishing.
About 20 minutes south of Yuba City, experience a surviving remnant of the natural Central Valley as you follow five miles of trails through oak forests and riparian woodlands along the Feather River at the 430-acre Bobelaine Audubon Sanctuary. More than 190 bird species have been identified at this preserve, and you might also spot river otters and beavers.
Yuba Sutter's location along the migratory route of the Pacific Flyway definitely makes it a hotspot for birders. The ponds and fields at the 9,100-acre Gray Lodge Wildlife Area northwest of Yuba City draw more than one million waterfowl, especially in the peak months from November into early February. There's also outstanding wildlife viewing at the Colusa National Wildlife Refuge, where a boardwalk overlooks a wetland filled with waterfowl, and on six miles of trails at the Sutter National Wildlife Refuge.
For birds of a very different feather, West Coast Falconry conducts an assortment of private and group outings during which you can observe and interact with birds of prey including falcons, hawks, and owls.
Be sure to explore the region's many rivers, including prime fishing for wild rainbow trout on a 21-mile stretch of the Yuba River, and kayaking and rafting along the Bear River's four miles of Class II whitewater. On the Sacramento River, Lovey's Landing Marina is the place to go for camping and to see if you can hook a king salmon during the season from August into December.

Less grind, more flow
Let's find a way that makes business feel easier. If you've ever felt overwhelmed at work, and imagined something better, welcome. We'll explore questions and themes like this, as it relates to your company:
- Retaining customers in tough times
- Scaling impact through technology
- Enabling teamwork through culture
Who we are
Easier business is a project started in 2022 by Ebusiness Brands, Inc., which was founded by Patrick Pitman in 2000. It runs ebusiness pros, an ecommerce consultancy, and ebusinessWP, a web support service, from Austin, Texas. Patrick's curious how to make the next couple decades easier than the first couple.
Patrick invited daughters Gabrielle and Abigail to help, as they imagined a future with more impact. New collaborators are joining to help us give definition to the vision of an 'easier business.' Will you?
Join Our Newsletter
Let's find an easier way of doing business...
Starter Questions & Themes
Let's dust off common business paradigms and take a fresh look. Which popular assumptions serve us today, and which make our work unnecessarily harder? We'll explore questions like these:
The Right Time
Between active and passive is the quality of being ready. At what pace do we work? What if we acted upon sensing the opportune moment?
With prospects, customers, and our team, how might we cultivate a relationship that feels good? How might they feel gotten, and we, also?
Our Friend
Could we carry a part, but not all of the responsiblity? What if part belongs to that which is Greater, who knows us, and helps always?
Imagine more of this, even as we veer. For example, how can our task-oriented 'left brain' qualities serve those of our holistic 'right brain'?
Big enough
Not small, just big enough. If success meant impact, and not pace of growth nor numerical or vanity measures, how might work be different? Better?
What if we aimed to solve new problems and not recurring ones? What would we design, using which methods and technology?

@Larry,I have been reading up on method resolution orders and class precedence lists and all sort of meta-model esoteria. Which brings me to ask myself, "How should all this be done in Perl 6?".
The current state of the prototype meta-model is that it only supports pre-order class traversal (like Perl 5). However we are not limited to this, the framework needed to support other traversal methods is now in place.
Basically in order to implement submethods as described by Larry (having an implicit "next METHOD if $?SELF != $?CLASS" in front of it), I needed to implement a stateful dispatcher. This made it very easy to then implement WALKMETH and WALKCLASS, which the metamodel now uses for dispatching, and then to also make 'next METHOD' (implemented as next_METHOD() in the prototype).
So this brings me to some questions regarding various traversal methods listed in A12, they are:
:canonical # canonical dispatch order :ascendant # most-derived first, like destruction order :descendant # least-derived first, like construction order :preorder # like Perl 5 dispatch :breadth # like multimethod dispatchMy first question is, how is the dispatch order changed? I assume it is through the %opt argument in WALKMETH and WALKCLASS.
My second question is, who would really be changing this? Is this something Perl 6 will utilize internally? Will other things be implemented which require these different traversal orders? Basically, what good is having all these different traversal orders?
And lastly I have questions on each particular ordering. - canonicalWhat would be considered the "canonical" method dispatch? I would assume it would mean the traditional Perl 5 style (pre-order).
- preorder Is this not the canonical way in Perl? - breadthI can see the usefulness of this if you are going to handle your own WALKMETH, but wouldn't CALLONE, CALLALL handle this same behavior? Or maybe I am not understanding its usefulness.
- ascendant/descendantThese two are the tricky ones, especially with multiple inheritance. But thankfully there is much work already done on this subject, and all we need to do is pick the one we like and copy... uh *ahem* borrow ... it :)
So my question is this, given the following class layout: A Least derived / \ B C | | D E \ / F Most Derived What is the method resolution order (for ascendant order)? F, D, E, B, C, A or F, D, B, E, C, AThe first one would follow a "strict" most-derived order, but will probably not be what the user will expect. It also looks a lot like breadth first traversal.
The second one is what all the other "cool kids" seem to be doing. It is called "Monotonic Superclass Linearization" or "C3" and it is what Guido and the boys are doing for Python 2.3. The original paper is on the language Dylan (http://www.webcom.com/haahr/dylan/linearization-oopsla96.html) and gives a pretty good explaination. And it is detailed again in this paper on python (http://www.python.org/2.3/mro.html). If you read both of these papers (even just skimming them) you will see that this approach makes a lot of sense. However it does impose some restrictions on funky MI class composition which we would need to deal with. Basically it should blow up in certain cases where the method cannot properly be resolved no matter what (the papers give several examples of this).
Personally I would go with the second one. It seems to "feel right" to me, and I like anything which blows up in the face of overwhelming ambiguity :)
I wonder too if we choose to use C3, then if that should not become the canonical way?
Thanks, Stevan

This is the second in our super simple sewing kits, using our wonderful range of fat quarters.
Our Make a Drawstring Bag DIY kit comes with 2 50cm square pieces of fabric, a metre of matching ribbon or cord and full written instructions; all in a voile bag.
This means that it's great to give as a present for someone who has just bought a sewing machine, though it is possible by hand too.
I have included lots of colour choices, but if you'd like 2 particular fabrics from our Fabric selection, just let me know in the notes when you make your order.

I've added lots of colourways to choose from, but feel free to specify which fabrics you'd like (from the fabric section) in the notes when you make your order.
Heart Pendant£0.50
These lovely heart pendants make a great necklace, or keyring. They are 28mm wide and high with a 6mm hole.

We bought them on our trip to India, and they are made of bone leftover from the food industry.

This versatile 1mm cotton thread is available in a variety of colours, and the price is per metre.
The 1mm Cotton Thread that we sourced all the way from India (that was a fun holiday/ business trip!) is available in a variety of colours.

Versatile thin 0.5mm cotton thread for use in craft and jewellery projects.

The price you see here is for one metre.
Leather 2mm£0.60
We sell our 2mm Leather by the metre and that seems to work out OK. We have Natural leather in stock at the moment .

Leather 0.5mm£0.60
Great value and great quality leather cord in a choice of colours.
Our 0.5mm leather comes in 3 colours, Black, Brown and Natural, and the price is per metre. The Natural is slightly rougher than the others because it is exactly what it says on the tin, Natural Leather! The Black and Brown are dyed and the shine wears off pretty quickly (don't worry you won't get a black neck!).
Brown Cotton Thread 3mm Flat£0.30
Thick 3mm flat cotton thread is sold by the metre. Great for your craft and jewellery projects.
Our lovely 3mm Flat Cotton Thread was bought to satisfy the vegetarian's out there who wanted suede but couldn't have it. Now they can have 'suede-a-like' flat cotton instead.

Thick 2mm cotton thread available in a variety of colours.
Our 2mm Cotton thread is lovely and thick. We sell lots of it to people who do re-enactment stuff, apparently because it laces up well. It comes in many lovely colours and we sell it by the metre.

m. calibo
I just feel i got...
The Holiday sale has lured me into buying this,.. but sadly, after trying it on a mix, I can honestly say that i really don't feel or can hear any difference using this plug-in at all, i just feel i got ripped, this is my 1st disappointment in buying a UAD plug-in so far, Sorry.!!
E. Kushch
I am delighted!!!
Choosing this plugin section Unison, my vocals began to sound very beautiful, I chose Neve 1084 and did not regret it, the vocal part very easily fits into the mix... this preamp is now my love
j. dee
Is it a Neve?
It's been a number of years since i worked a lot with the original pre's, so it's impossible to say if this anything like it, as i believe it's impossible for anyone to clarify that unless u can A/B them. I did however do a direct shoot out between the UAD and the black lion Audio B173.. Hands down, no doubts the B173 was a winner. Richer, deeper, clearer, more gain and of course that distortion. The UAD is good though, it really does do something as others here have expressed. I will use it for sure.
t. eighty-four
It works.
I bought this and was expecting some EQ type effect, a gimmick. Had just received my Apollo, bought for the conversion and DSP not the preamps. I run most things at line level. Now I run at line level, slightly hot through the mic pre with this thing and just listen for it to fatten the tone. It not an EQ effect b/c there is noise as there always will be with transistor based gain circuits. The signal the Neve Preamp puts out is strong and cuts cleanly through giving me a signal to noise ratio that is serious.
B. Lynn
Very good
Sounds really professional
E. Peterson
The sound is outrageous
Big fan of the neve sound and this one is my favorite followed by the 1084. There's lots of range with this one and get the sounds I want to hear. Awesome thank you UA
K. Jeppesen
Never disappointing!
I like the warmt and presence of the NEVE compressors
c. rosario
My go to pre on anything, even on main out mix.
J. Jakonen
It just works!
Great sounding Neve pre & eq, works for everything. Wanted this for a long time, demoed it eventually for the new mix I was working and bought it immidiately. Love it!
J. Bryant
Everything but the heat!
My first major console I worked on was an 88RS. So my first UAD purchase had to be the 88RS Channel Strip. This plug in is amazing. The only thing it is missing is the heat that could start to burn your finger if you held on to a pot or a fader too long
c. david
It's the best for a long time...
R. Gomes
R. Gomes
I love NEVE Compressors. The 33609 is my favorite on mix bus.
L. Martin Lee
freakin awesomeee!!!!
I wish I have a free SSL Channel Strip from you UNIVERSAL AUDIO, I would be nice LOL
A. Reverberi
Surprise !
You dont realize how good it is until you start using it, not to mention the Legacy version its very low DSP if you need a channel strip.
e. ceric
So easy to use, big results
R. Björnström
Just like the real thing
I have had the pleasure to work with the 1084 preamp/EQ several times in the studio and this plugin from the good folk at UA captures the true essence of what Neve stands for. Clarity, punch and true analog feel.
A. Smith
The sound and tone is excellent.
I've been wanting this for a while, now that I've got it I realise why it's as popular as the 1073, but with a few extra features.
M. Conway
Didn't disappoint, plus a bonus!
I nabbed the 33609 frankly because many of the engineers I 'follow' for tips and advice relied heavily on it and it did not disappoint. I'm trimming my compressor stable down to essentials, LA-2A, 1176, Fairchild, and this Neve compressor!
The 2254 was an unexpected bonus. I had the Plugin Alliance 254 (which is very good) but this is such a cut above and has become the resident Drum Bus compressor of choice. These are now essential tools!
M. Davis
Simple and clean
I love throwing this in as a unison preamp. Adds clarity and punch. Super easy to use interface!!

Nordic cooperation
Nordic cooperation participants include Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland, and Åland, the Faroe Islands and Greenland.
The vision of the Nordic countries is to make the Nordic Region the most sustainable and integrated region in the world by 2030. The vision will be realised by focusing on three strategic priorities: a green Nordic Region, a competitive Nordic Region and a socially sustainable Nordic Region.
The Nordic Council of Ministers is an intergovernmental cooperation body consisting of ministers and senior officials representing the Nordic governments. The overall responsibility in the Nordic Council of Ministers lies with the Prime Ministers.
In practice, the responsibility is delegated to the Ministers for Nordic Cooperation and the Nordic Committee for Cooperation, which coordinates the day-to-day work of Nordic intergovernmental cooperation. The Secretariat of the Nordic Council of Ministers is based in Copenhagen.
The Nordic Council of Ministers consists of several councils of ministers. Issues that fall under the administrative sector of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health include:
- social welfare and health
- gender equality, sexual minorities and gender minorities
- occupational health and safety
- food.
The aim of Nordic cooperation in the field of social welfare and health is to promote:
- the equal treatment of citizens
- solidarity in society
- the availability of basic services
- service quality and safety
Norway holds the Presidency of the Nordic Council of Ministers in 2022. The themes of Norway's Presidency in the area of social welfare and healthcare in 2022 include preparedness for health threats, the security of supply, use of data in the field of health, the development of data in the post-pandemic world, remote healthcare, pediatric medicines, the quality of life of elderly LGBTI people, and research on young people and marginalisation.
The aim of cooperation in the field of equality is to promote:
- equality and equal treatment in the Nordic societies
- the equal sharing between women and men of the responsibility for care, power and opportunities to exercise influence
- the realisation of equal rights, obligations and opportunities for women and men in all areas of society and in all life stages
- the eradication of gender-based violence
- the active participation of men in promoting equality
The official Nordic gender equality cooperation has been working for over 40 years to
make the Nordic region one of the most gender equal regions in the
world. In 2020, the cooperation was formally extended to include the
prevention of marginalisation, promotion of inclusion, and strengthening of the active citizenship
of homosexual, bisexual, transgender and intersex persons in the Nordic
The themes of Norway's Presidency regarding LGBTI issues in 2022 include promoting Nordic views on equality and LGBTI rights in international arenas through actions including the Generation Equality campaign, the Feminist action for climate justice commitment and the preparation of a Nordic Roadmap against anti-genderism. Under Norway's leadership, discussions will be held during the year on the relationship between climate, environmental and equality issues, violence against women, and equality in working life.
Cooperation in the field of social welfare and health is coordinated by the Nordic Council of Ministers for Health and Social Affairs. Cooperation on equality, sexual minorities and gender minorities (LGBTI issues) is coordinated by the Nordic Council of Ministers for Gender Equality and LGBTI.
Nordic agreements
Nordic social security and social service agreements have been drafted in cooperation between the Nordic countries. The agreements facilitate the free movement of Nordic citizens in the region.
The agreement on a common Nordic labour market for certain personnel groups in the healthcare and veterinary sectors facilitates the exchange of data related to the mobility of professionals and patient safety between the Nordic countries.
Under the Nordic Public Health Preparedness Agreement, the Nordic countries have committed to cooperate in providing healthcare and social welfare in case of emergencies and disasters, taking into account their national needs. Among other things, the countries are committed to informing each other of measures taken, developing cooperation in the field, and exchanging information on changes to their preparedness systems. They are also committed to otherwise promoting cooperation by eliminating obstacles included in national legislation, exchanging experiences and engaging in cooperation on training and exercises.
In March 2022, the Nordic ministers for health signed a joint declaration in Stavanger to strengthen health crisis preparedness in the Nordic Region.

by Clyde Hall and Jarrod Jones. AHOY Comics first set sail in 2018 and has caught favorable winds ever since. (You're just going to have to excuse the deluge of nautical puns in this piece; AHOY brought it on themselves.) Kept afloat by attention-grabbing titles like Second Coming and the comics-creator-death-match Steel Cage, as well as critically-acclaimed offerings such as The Wrong Earth, High Heaven and Planet of the Nerds (the latter of which has been optioned by Paramount Pictures), AHOY has navigated the choppier waters of the comics industry with a veteran's grace.
That's not a surprising turn of the tide. Consider who's steering this ship: AHOY was founded by Hart Seely, Tom Peyer, Stuart Moore and Frank Cammuso, publishing stalwarts all, each painfully aware that standing out in a flooded market is of the utmost importance. And AHOY has stood out—not just by supplementing each issue they publish with back matter material that's just as entertaining as the feature comic strips that precede it, or with their impeccable trade dress or publishing quality, but by imbuing each series with an aura of mindful irreverence that is unmistakably their own.
Fun fact: AHOY Comics stands for "Abundance, Humor, Originality and Yes." Did AHOY cop out with the last part of its acronym? That's not for us to say, but that assemblage of words has come to represent some of the funniest, most thought-provoking, downright best comics we've read.
AHOY's output is too good for a single feature. In the weeks to come we'll be exploring a sampling of works from the Syracuse-based publisher, titles we feel best represent this exquisitely curated line of books. DoomRocket's publisher-focused feature, HOT PRESS, has returned—and this month, we're dropping anchor for AHOY Comics.
THE BOOK: Planet of the Nerds
THE TEAM: Paul Constant (words), Alan Robinson (art), Randy Elliott (art), Felipe Sobreiro (colors), Lee Loughridge (colors), Rob Steen (letters).
THE GIST: In 1988, three members of the local school sports collective (i.e., cool kids on the varsity football team) find themselves accidentally placed in cryogenic stasis. They awaken 30 years later to find that their ilk's ancestral enemies—namely, nerds—have inherited the earth.
WHAT WORKS: The series is a nostalgic revisit to 1980s films like Back to the Future, Revenge of the Nerds, and Real Genius. Except Planet of the Nerds deals more even-handedly with its cast than its cinematic inspirations; jocks-out-of-time Steve, Chad, and Drew eventually find common ground with the geeks of today. They reconnect with former childhood associates like Jenny and Alvin, now nearing 50 and embodying the experience denied our three jocks.
Adapting isn't easy or instant. Their fruitless search for a payphone and their encounter with a modern comics convention evokes humor and reflection: Would our reactions be different were we plucked from our senior year of high school and deposited thirty years forward in time?
Taking the three protagonists out of the 1980s doesn't strain the era from them, as evidenced by discussions regarding Alf's sex life and consumer outrage at convenience stores brazenly charging $2 for sausage sticks. The series aims beyond laughs, though.
Paul Constant depicts the three main characters, their nemesis, and their former teen peers with compassion. African American jock Drew feigning surprise at a militaristic police force sent to quell a disturbance is matched by the shock of Steve and Chad, meant to be ironically humorous and sad. Moments like these reveal divisions among the jocks, differences concealed by their "teammate" commonality as promoted by their era.
Planet of the Nerds uses short feature pieces effectively, examining the origin of characters' mindsets in formative events from their lives. Chad is the worst of the displaced three, the jock who's intolerant of just about everyone and who presses buttons to achieve meltdowns. But in "Seven Punches", we find a young Chad impacted by tragedy and an abusive father. Once the battered child is strong enough to impact back, he becomes the bully.
Such reveals aren't the focus of Planet of the Nerds. Humor and characterizations own the spotlight. But moments of acuity lift the material onto a more thoughtful plain than readers may expect. Not all nerds are heroes. Jocks aren't all jerks. No one's entirely blameless but understanding comes from knowing experiences which shaped them. Constant's writing turns a throwback comedy romp into nostalgia with insight and soul.
Another working element is Alan Robinson's art. His style caters to comedic, caricatured facial expressions, his roadmap to many expressive destinations including mortification, vexation, slyness, folly masquerading as slyness, and mute surprise. As with the writing, humor abounds but is balanced by unexpected emotional depths. The final act may not work well for some. It's tidy, it's clean, and it doesn't set up a curtain call. Only a bow would wrap it more completely. Unlike hosts of narratives intent on sequels, Planet of the Nerds sets sail, tells its tale, and concludes the voyage.
DEFINING MOMENT: In issue #4, we see part of Jenny's backstory. Once Steve's former girlfriend, by 2001 Jenny is in her 30s. She has a job offer in NYC. Her artist boyfriend Mizzark is determined to go with, ready to gamble on the big time. Over dinner, Jenny's mother blithely (and with blisteringly fatalistic humor) lists the reasons their plans are doomed. Jenny doesn't take her big leap, but not because her hopes are strangled by a pearl necklace of maternal wisdom. It's because NYC has lost its luster; a generation's ability to dare and dream was impaired on September 11. A moment that defines the series' pith and poignancy.
IS IT SEAWORTHY? Planet of the Nerds isn't just buoyant. It's a yacht handled expertly and worthy of the Auld Mug. For those who were young adults in the era, the creative team has resurrected a humorous late-80s world and recalled cringe-worthy versions of ourselves. Chad, Steve and Drew may not be their generation at its finest, but we witness them grow to embrace the progress of today's world. They also reject what's wrong with now, a wrongness apparent even to their stunted, retro viewpoint.
The talent even pulls a U.S.S. Callister on us courtesy of the Three Comma Club of Competitive Commerce. Sympathies redirect, past ills are drowned in showers of Pringles, and we share Michael J. Fox envy as Constant & Crew impel us to be better. Better jocks. Better nerds. Better human beings, with a kickass Eighties soundtrack accompaniment required. — CH

THE BOOK: Second Coming
THE TEAM: Mark Russell (words), Richard Pace (art), Leonard Kirk (finishes), Andy Troy (colors), Rob Steen (letters).
THE GIST: Jesus Christ is sent by the Almighty to live on Earth with a superhero named Sunstar—and he soon learns what people have done in his name over the last two millennia.
WHAT WORKS: The satirical premise of Second Coming—one that lived and died (and lived again!) by its central character, the Lamb of God—proved to be too spicy for corporate comics. Unfavorable mentions on Fox News and an online petition with over 230,000 signatures meant that DC Vertigo, the former vanguard of controversial comic bookery, would leave Mark Russell & Richard Pace's Jesus comic adrift at sea. Luckily for comics readers (and particularly for the comics medium), Second Coming was soon offered a life preserver by AHOY Comics—a four-color resurrection of… oh, let's say Biblical proportions. Because why the hell not.
Second Coming seemed to be constructed with an acute awareness of the criticisms that would certainly be levied against it. Here, God is depicted as boozy lout who bombs around his celestial plane in robes stained with wine and fried chicken grease. The universe was his great ambition, once, but then he created people without thinking things all the way through. ("You can't just tell people not to mess with a tree and then leave them alone with it," Jesus says of Adam & Eve's fall from grace.) And since he's spent the last 2000 years shirking responsibility for his own shit, God dumps Jesus on the doorstep of Sunstar (a Superman analogue who can't have kids with his reporter girlfriend) because God hopes the superhero will toughen him up. (Or, as the Almighty puts it, "Show him how a real hero handles his chili.") It's the kind of stuff that's just gonna piss off certain people. So Russell & Pace run with it.
Second Coming is a study of theology and a criticism of modern society, told in an acerbic voice and illustrated with a grimy veneer. A risky proposition regardless of how far the team ultimately pushed things. What's so miraculous about Second Coming is how funny it turns out to be, how recognizably human these characters are, and how impactful its words feel when we let them settle between our initial prejudices and fears.
Pace renders his solo pages—where the narrative focus is placed on Jesus, his dad, and the mythology that surrounds them both—with unrefined lines and scratches. (Leonard Kirk provided slick finishes for the Earth-bound sequences.) It's almost as though these parts of the story, hallowed as they are, have been deliberately stripped of the pristine shapes and beauty you often find in churches around the world, as though the very act of Creation itself remains a concept that none of us could ever truly comprehend, especially in a ding-dang comic book.
By virtue of this approach, Second Coming reaches a deeper threshold of the reader's understanding and appreciation. There's a bit where God casts Adam and Eve from paradise, and Pace and colorist Andy Troy end up evoking the ethereal powers of Gustave Doré's "Adam and Eve Driven Out of Eden", a testament to the potency of the source material if nothing else. Then comes the kicker: Only one panel before, Pace has Adam tugging at his willie, fascinated with this new sin he's discovered. This contrast between artistic grace and comic goofiness creates exquisite conditions for satire—and an opportunity for the series' creators to show their clear respect for the book's primary subject.
Second Coming isn't here to callously provoke people or lampoon their faith. Faith isn't fodder for Second Coming. Faith-based sanctimony is. It's but another interpretation of the teachings of Christ, only this time it comes from a comics creator who wonders what Jesus might think of a culture that has bent to the will of mega-churches and manipulative, power-mad hypocrites—and you can call that blasphemy, sure, if you're prone to using such words in the literal sense. But it's blasphemy with a purpose: "We blaspheme, not to belittle the faith of millions," Russell says in the book's foreward, "but to offer the world something new."
DEFINING MOMENT: The entirety of issue #1. Few comics have faced demands to justify its existence as fiercely as Second Coming has, and the transition from Vertigo to AHOY clearly gave Russell and his art team time to finesse this book into everything it could be. Pages were added that elaborated on Shimon, a friend of Jesus' who came up alongside Christ, was gifted his family's carpentry shop, and who made the cross for the Roman army that was ultimately used to kill Jesus.
Shimon's story is framed as an anecdote for Sunstar's benefit, to illustrate why Jesus would feel compelled to aid even the most treacherous among us. Instead it becomes the coda for an issue brimming with ideas and potential, an indicator for things to come, and one of the most striking moments of the entire series. Here, Russell & Pace move in for the kill: "You think the most important thing I did that day was being nailed to some wood?" Jesus asks Sunstar. "It wasn't. You think punishment is what brings salvation to the human race? It isn't… It is saved one act of forgiveness at a time."
It's a literal genesis point, not just for the story of Second Coming, or for the relationship between Jesus Christ and Sunstar, but for the next span of years in the life of AHOY as a publisher. It's one of the most assured first issues of any series I've read. Second Coming dares to engage with its readers, to share perspectives and ideas that are often used as fuel for bitter disputes when they should be the things that unite us. So go read it.
IS IT SEAWORTHY? Batten down the hatches—it's possibly the best thing AHOY has published yet. Second Coming is a thoughtful and irreverent jaunt through faith, imbued with matters concerning love and personal responsibility, and the consequences that often come from engaging with both. It's also funny as hell. — JJ

Ferrari has revealed its Vision GT concept car exclusively for the Gran Turismo 7 racing game. The single-seat racing concept car will only be featured in the virtual gaming world. As indicated by Ferrari, the VGT concept additionally sees what its cutting edge road cars could seem to be.
Finely designed by senior designer Flavio Manzoni and team at Ferrari Centro Stile in Maranello. The car takes inspiration from the iconic racing cars of the 1960s and 1970s such as the 330 P3 and 512 S.
There is no real version announcement of the Ferrari VGT has been reported yet, while a full-scale physical study will be on display at the Italian carmaker's exhibition hall in Maranello from December 15.
Talking about the aerodynamics, there are two side channels that direct airflow around the cockpit and over the side pods of the concept car. Rear diffuser and biplane wing is taking the inspiration from Ferrari's real-world 499P LMHd racer combined to generate "extremely efficient aerodynamic downforce" that plants the car to the track, Ferrari said.
The concept was built around a carbon fibre chassis and sits very close to the ground. The front end is enhanced by a sharp nose with a huge splitter and slim LED lights, while in the back, the diffuser almost touches the ground, and the biplane wing generates extremely efficient aerodynamic downforce.
Under the hood of the Ferrari 296 GTB road car and 499P racer there is a twin-turbocharged 3-litre V6 engine is equipped which is able to churns out 1015bhp and 900 Nm of peak torque, with the option of additional 321bhp available via three electric motors one on the rear axle and one on each of the front wheels.
This engine is connected to a Formula 1-derived, eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox and makes the car able to sprint from 0-100kmph in less than 2 seconds, and to 200kmph in just 5 seconds and has a claimed top speed of more than 350kmph.

They've gone far, kids: Offspring to play hits new and old in Charlotte
One of America's most iconic punk rock bands is ready to "Come Out and Play" in Charlotte. The Offspring will perform at Amos' Southend on Friday.
Thirty years on the music scene, the group needs little introduction. Singer/guitarist Bryan "Dexter" Holland and bassist Gregory Kriesel (a.k.a. Greg K) started up the band in California in 1984, and guitarist Kevin "Noodles" Wasserman joined a year later. Pete Parada became the new drummer in 2007.
With their signature sound, The Offspring has produced numerous hits, including "The Kids Aren't Alright," "You're Gonna Go Far Kid," "Pretty Fly (for a White Guy) and "Why Don't You Get a Job." Their latest single, "Coming for You," is gaining momentum on the radio.
Noodles took time out of his schedule recently to talk about the band.
OFFSPRING'S EVOLUTION: "There's not been big changes. I think we're pretty slow to mature; it's something we fight against. 'Ignition' was the first record that really kind of stamped our style on something. I think the first record [1989's 'The Offspring'] really spoke to some of our own influences a little. 'Smash' was us being us. We still always go back to the hard, fast, heavy bass guitar kind of music, but we've kind of branched out, from ska to pop sounding. I think we've just kind of added to it, fleshed things out a little more."
GETTING ESTABLISHED: "We were a punk band playing in underground clubs and out-of-the-way places that really allowed punk bands to play. There really wasn't any mainstream acceptance [of punk music] until 1994." The 1994 album "Smash" turned their hobby into a career. "I think the time was right for our type of music. Nirvana really helped swing the musical theme into our favor."
CRAZIEST CONCERT MOMENTS: "We've had people light themselves on fire to do stage dives. But fortunately, that was at an outdoor venue [and could be easily snuffed out]. … As long as it's taken to the edge where everybody's energetic and nobody's getting hurt, that's awesome, and we see that on a nightly basis."
A NEW RECORD: Noodles said the band is touring a lot over the summer, but members get in the studio whenever they can. They don't have a deadline for the next album but hope to release one in the near future.
THE WRITING PROCESS: "Before, we couldn't really afford to spend all of our time in the studio. Dexter would usually write [songs] in his truck and them we would get together and hash them out. Now, it all ends up being written right in front of the microphone, and we change it there. It's still pretty organic."
THE WORKING RELATIONSHIP: "We really do appreciate each other. There are times when we have to go get away from each other, hibernate in our hotel for a day, but we really do get along well. We know when to poke fun at each, when to back off. We love playing together. There's no feeling like it in the world."
The Offspring in concert When: 9 p.m. May 1 Where: Amos' Southend, 1423 S. Tryon St., Charlotte Tickets: $30 in advance from www.amossouthend.com, $35 at the door.

New Delhi: India`s largest ever initial public offering (IPO), by Life Insurance Corp (LIC), was oversubscribed 2.95 times as six days of bidding came to an end on Monday, according to a stock exchange filing.

The price range for the issue has been set between 902 and 949 rupees per share and LIC is likely to be listed on May 17.
In the grey market, LIC shares were trading at a premium of less than 40 rupees, down from nearly 100 rupees earlier.
A clutch of foreign investors and several domestic mutual fund houses had bid for its anchor book which had closed on May 2.
An India government official on Monday said that listing had a tepid response from foreign institutional investors. "Predominantly this issue has been domestically lifted," said Tuhin Kanta Pandey, secretary of India`s Department of Investment and Public Asset Management (DIPAM).
Pandey added that share allotment will take place on May 12.
The 66-year-old company dominates India`s insurance sector, with more than 280 million policies. It was the fifth-biggest global insurer in terms of insurance premium collection in 2020, the latest year for which statistics are available.
