See How APA Celebrated NPW in Fine Style
There were many National Payroll Week;® (NPW) celebrations across the country this past September, and in typical fashion, APA led the way with a week's worth of games, festivities, and contests to honor the men and women of payroll.The week began with a company-wide word search contest, during which employees had to find 20 NPW-themed words as quickly as possible. Coming in first place was reigning NPW Queen Julie Hilton, Editorial Assistant, with Philip Trascher, Marketing Specialist, and Nicole Alabi, Receptionist/Chapter Relations Support, close behind.As the week progressed, staff competed in additional contests such as a word scramble, candy guessing game, and selfie contest in order to see who would be the overall victor of National Payroll Week. The final day of NPW was reserved for celebration as employees gathered for a festive luncheon and a beautifully decorated cake. Attendees dressed to impress with payroll-themed costumes and accessories as they convened for good food and a screening of APA employees on local television shows "Daytime @ Nine" and "San Antonio Living."Costumed attendees were judged on their attire after the luncheon. In first place, dressed as The Payroll Source;®, was Delia Hernandez, PHR, Human Resources Manager. Debra Rodriguez, Disbursements Specialist, dressed as an NPW Queen for second place, and Editor Kerry Cole, or should I say "Uncle Pennybags," earned third for his "Monopoly man" getup.In the end, it was a four-way tie for overall champion, unseating Julie Hilton from her four-year reign. Top honors this year went to Laura Lough, Esq., Director of Publications; Bill Dunn, CPP, Director of Government Relations; Delia Hernandez; and Debra Rodriguez.All in all, it was another banner year of celebrating NPW at APA. We look forward to hearing how other groups around the nation celebrated this year as we prepare for our big NPW wrap-up in January 2015's issue of PAYTECH.

Maybe I should predict a Broncos loss for the rest of the season. Maybe I should go snowboarding on gameday and watch the game later in the day after I've had a great day on the mountain. Maybe the Broncos should shop for players at the mall more often. Whatever was in the air yesterday gave the Broncos a two game lead over the Chargers for first place in the AFC West. A few players to thank for the win:
Spencer Larsen: Started at fullback, middle linebacker, and on special teams to fill the injury void.
Peyton Hillis: Not a big day yards wise, but he tacked 2 TDs onto the scoreboard.
Eddie Royal: 159 yards on 5 kick returns with a long of 58 yards. Fast Eddie Rabbit got the team in great field position each time.
The Defense: The team came up with stops in the fourth quarter, Dre Bly had an interception (finally!), and they held the Falcons to 114 yards on the ground.
Jay Cutler: No turnovers and distributed the ball fairly evenly among his receivers.
For the last two games, the Broncos have not been able to get going until the second half. For now, that's fine with me. They were playing on the road and doing everything they could to fill roster spots. A win is a win in the NFL…it doesn't matter how you do it. In the Broncos last 5 wins, they've won the game by 1, 2, 3, 4, and 4 points, respectively. In the Broncos last 5 wins, I've been clutching my heart and falling to the floor in astonishment as the final whistle blows, relieved to come out with a "W."

Goldsmith could face legal challenge over BAE Systems fraud inquiry
Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT) and The Corner House have instructed solicitors Leigh Day & Co to consider a legal action against the Attorney General. This is with respect to the decision to end the Serious Fraud Office investigation into allegations of corruption around the sale of military equipment by BAE Systems to Saudi Arabia. CAAT and The Corner House are meeting with Leigh Day & Co and counsel, Blackstone Chambers, on Monday, 18th December 2006.
CAAT spokesperson Nicholas Gilby said:
"The Government's commitment to fighting fraud means nothing if BAE Systems is placed above the law. Democracy must not give way to bullying by arms companies. As with other criminal investigations, the Serious Fraud Office inquiry should be allowed to run its course."ENDS
For further information or an interview please contact CAAT's Media Co-ordinator, Symon Hill on 020 7281 0297 or email media(at)caat·org·uk.
1. Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT) works for the reduction and ultimate abolition of the international arms trade.
2. The Corner House is a not-for-profit social and environmental justice group.
3. In 2003, the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) began an investigation into BAE Systems' dealings with Saudi Arabia. Matters being investigated include dealings since 2001. The inquiry has broadened to include matters relating to Chile, Czech Republic, Romania, South Africa and Tanzania. BAE Systems denied all allegations of corruption and stated that it was co-operating with the inquiry.
4. In December 2005, it was announced that Saudi Arabia had agreed a multibillion pound deal to buy Eurofighter jets from BAE Systems. In November 2006, it was reported that the Saudi authorities had suspended talks on the deal due to the investigation by the SFO.
5. On 8th December 2005, CAAT, The Corner House, British American Security Information Council (BASIC) and Saferworld wrote to the Government to call for the SFO inquiry to continue. They described as "pure fantasy" claims that the cancellation of the Eurofighter deal with Saudi Arabia would threaten 50,000 British jobs. They quoted a report commissioned by the Eurofighter PR and Communications Office and published on 16th June 2006. It is entitled The Industrial and Economic Benefits of the Eurofighter Typhoon and was written by Professor Keith Hartley of the Centre of Defence Economics at the University of York. The report states that by Eurofighter's own figures, around 11,000 jobs would be created across the whole of Europe, indicating less than 5,000 in the UK.
6. On 14th December 2006 the Attorney-General announced that the SFO was suspending its investigation into dealings between BAE Systems and Saudi Arabia. The Solicitor-General later added that the investigation is likely to have lasted a further eighteen months had it continued. It is understood that the SFO will continue to investigate allegations of corruptions against BAE Systems involving Chile, Czech Republic, Romania, South Africa and Tanzania.
7. CAAT spokespeople are available for interview on this subject.

AP Religion Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- Once a unifying cause for generations of American Jews, Israel is now bitterly dividing Jewish communities.
Jewish organizations are withdrawing invitations to Jewish speakers or performers considered too critical of Israel, in what opponents have denounced as an ideological litmus test meant to squelch debate. Some Jewish activists have formed watchdog groups, such as Citizens Opposed to Propaganda Masquerading as Art, or COPMA, and JCC Watch, to monitor programming for perceived anti-Israel bias. They argue Jewish groups that take donations for strengthening the community shouldn't be giving a platform to Israel's critics.
American campuses have become ideological battle zones over Israeli policy in the Palestinian territories, with national Jewish groups sometimes caught up on opposing sides of the internal debate among Jewish students. The "Open Hillel" movement of Jewish students is challenging speaker guidelines developed by Hillel, the major Jewish campus group, which bars speakers who "delegitimize" or "demonize" Israel. Open Hillel is planning its first national conference in October.
And in a vote testing the parameters of Jewish debate over Israel, the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations, a national coalition that for decades has represented the American Jewish community, denied membership in April to J Street, the 6-year-old lobby group that describes itself as pro-Israel and pro-peace and has sometimes criticized the Israeli government. Opponents of J Street have been showing a documentary called "The J Street Challenge," in synagogues and at Jewish gatherings around the country, characterizing the group as a threat from within.
"I believe this has reached a level of absurdity now," said Rabbi Sharon Brous, founder of the IKAR-LA Jewish community in California, which is considered a national model for reinvigorating religious life. "Even where people are acting from a place of love and deep commitment that Israel remains a vital and vibrant state, they are considered outside the realm. It's seen as incredibly threatening and not aligned with the script the American Jewish community expects."
In 2012, when Israel carried out an offensive in Gaza after an upsurge in rocket fire, Brous wrote an email to IKAR members that was published in The Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles. She supported Israel's right to defend itself, while also urging recognition of Palestinian suffering.
The result? She was overwhelmed with hate mail, and inspired competing op-eds and letters in the Journal from Jewish clergy and others until a prominent rabbi called for an end to the recriminations and name-calling.
American Jews have always vigorously debated Israeli policy, but mostly within the community and with an understanding that differences would be set aside if the Jewish state faced an existential threat. But the discussion within the U.S. has become more reflective of the very broad debate within Israel.
"It's a very old issue that many countries face and now Israel faces: to what extent should domestic debate carry over when you're abroad?" said Jonathan Sarna, a Brandeis University scholar of American Jewish history. "The critics of J Street and the like say, 'Of course, it's fine in Israel because the minute they call up the reserves, all politics disappear. Moreover, they have to live with the results of their decision.' Their argument is that there should be a great difference between what you can do and say in Israel and what you can do or say in America. There are all sorts of enemies who make use of the words in America differently than they do in Israel."
Internal American Jewish conflict has worsened as many Israel advocates have come to feel under siege in the U.S. The international boycott movement against Israel over its treatment of the Palestinians has gained some momentum in the U.S., and critics increasingly draw analogies between Israeli policies and South African apartheid.
The clashes among American Jews are partly colored by the sharp tone of overall left-right debate within the U.S. Earlier this year, the Brandeis chapter of J Street and one of its most vocal antagonists on campus, Daniel Mael, accused each other of harassment and made complaints to campus police. Mael, a 21-year-old Orthodox Jew, wrote a series of posts for the conservative site truthrevolt.org accusing J Street of bringing "Israel bashers" on campus.
J Street has said its opponents often distort the group's statements. The liberal lobby created a "Myths & Facts" page on its website challenging the claims.
Many leaders of the older, more-established organizations say the divisions are not as broad or deep as some claim. Defenders of the presidents' conference argue their 50-member association includes liberal organizations with similar views to J Street, and they blame the lobby group for whipping up a backlash to the vote.

Cinqo de Mayo: Eggs baked with Black Beans and Spicy Tomato in a Tortilla Cup
Celebrating Cinqo de Mayo has become the new St Patricks Day- just as the non-Irish drink green beer and eat corned beef, the non Latinos drink Margaritas and eat burritos. And why not? Celebrations are fun, and so are margaritas.
So here's to Cinqo de Mayo!!!! Bug off Arizonians (not all of you, just the racists).
Eggs baked with Black Beans and Spicy Tomato in a Tortilla Cup
Serves 1
1 Egg
1/4 Can Black Beans
1 tbsp Smoked Paprika
1/4 Cup Veggie Broth
2 Roma Tomatoes, skinned
1 clove of Garlic
1/2 small Red Onion
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro
1/2 Lime
1 Tortilla
Grated Cheese
Red Chili Pepper
Sriracha Sauce (optional)
In a sauce pan, heat some olive oil up and cook the sliced onions for 5-6 minutes. Add in garlic, beans, paprika, tomatoes (chopped), and broth. Stir well. Once the sauce has reduced, add in the lime juice, chili pepper flakes, cilantro and sriracha.
Heat oven to 375. Grease an oven proof ramekin and place tortilla inside, producing a tortilla cup or bowl. Pour in the bean sauce and crack an egg over top, grate cheese. Bake in the oven for about 10-15 minutes until the egg white has settled.

Danielle Cronin: Vale Bimbo. The Australia Zoo crew is mourning the death of Bimbo - one of the oldest elephants in Australia.
The Asian elephant, aged in her late 50s, had long suffered from severe arthritis in her hip and hind legs so veterinarians made the ''heart-breaking'' decision to end her pain when it became clear her condition would not improve.
Sabu is the sole surviving member of the zoo's elephant group after the deaths of Bimbo and Sabu - the latter died earlier this year. Given elephants are family-orientated, Australia Zoo is now working to find a more appropriate care arrangement for Sabu.
No elephants will be on display at Australia Zoo, on Queensland's Sunshine Coast, while the elephant enclosure is renovated.

Recipe: Roasted Cauliflower & Potato Soup with Dill Whipped Cream
They say the sign of an excellent cook is in their soup. But they also say that about their roast chicken. And their eggs. What dish do you think represents a good cook? As for me, I hope it's not the former. You see, soup is not my favorite thing to cook, nor is it my favorite thing to eat.
Don't get me wrong, I'll never turn down a bowl of French onion, with its bubbling cheese and toasty bread topping, and I always order the amazing chicken enchilada soup at my favorite hometown cafe. Oh, and that Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup? Yeah, that one's a winner. But other than that, I can usually take 'em or leave 'em.
So you can see it's a little random that I even chose to cook this, as I haven't really found too many homemade soup recipes worth keeping. One soup I really wanted to like is loaded baked potato. I've taken a couple of stabs at it, but it just never seems to replace the perfection that is an actual baked potato. I wanted to love beer cheese soup, too, but in the end I find its much more suited to dip form .
But with the strange winter weather, something took me over, and I found myself making this roasted cauliflower soup. Its inspiration came from many different places: a new cookbook, a dish I saw on a restaurant menu, and a new food mill. It came together on an unseasonably warm afternoon, and to my surprise I found myself slurping it straight from the pot. I kept the recipe straightforward and classic; I used my intuition to build flavorful layers while keeping the taste true to its ingredients.
It turned out to be a really good soup. But the best part? The dill whipped cream piled on top. I've read about savory uses for whipped cream before, even bookmarked them in my brain, and now I'm kicking myself for waiting so long to try one out. I love that something so simple can to take a standard dish from ordinary to extraordinary. The possibilities are truly endless here: I think it would be great dolloped on a smoked salmon blini, or even as a seasonal summer vegetable dip. Only your imagination is the limit.
So perhaps a soup really can reveal a good cook? Because maybe it's not really in the soup, but in the garnish.
Roasted Cauliflower & Potato Soup with Dill Whipped Cream
Dill Cream inspired by A New Turn in the South by Hugh Acheson
For the soup
1 pound russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 head of cauliflower, chopped into florets
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 leek, sliced into half moons and rinsed
1 medium onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups good-quality chicken stock
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup crème fraîche
4 ounces grated sharp cheddar cheese (about 1 packed cup), optional
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the dill whipped cream
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 heaping tablespoon chopped dill
Kosher salt, to taste
For the soup, preheat oven to 450°.
Toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, toss the cauliflower with remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Add the cauliflower to the pan with the potatoes, stirring to combine. Cook for an additional 25 minutes, stirring midway through cooking, until vegetables are soft and golden brown.
In a Dutch oven or soup pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add the onions and leeks and sauté until tender and translucent, about 6 minutes. Add garlic and cook for another minute. Add the roasted vegetables and stock to the Dutch oven and season with a little salt and pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes.
To puree the soup, either run it through a food mill fitted with the medium disc or process in batches in a blender. If you want a very smooth soup, push the puree through a fine mesh sieve or chinois, if desired.
Return the soup to the Dutch oven. Add milk and creme fraiche and rewarm over medium-low to medium heat. Whisk in cheese until completely melted, if using. Season the soup with kosher salt and pepper, to taste. (If making the soup in advance, leave out the milk, crème fraîche, and cheese until ready to reheat and serve.)
For the dill whipped cream, add heavy cream to a clean mixing bowl. Using a balloon whisk, whip the cream vigorously by hand until soft peaks begin to form. (I like a thickened, yet still malleable texture.) Gently stir in the dill and a generous pinch of kosher salt. Chill for about an hour to allow flavors to marry. If the whipped cream gets too thick, just fold in a couple splashes of cream until it reaches the desired texture.
Serve the soup with a dollop of dill whipped cream, coarsely ground black pepper, and a drizzle of good olive or walnut oil.

Looks delicious -- and not too thick (hate thick soups!).
Anna Thomas has a great way with soups... My favourite is pea soup with butter dumplings, and tomato soup with couscous dumplings from her Vegetarian Epicure books. (yes, I have a thing for dumplings)
I'm like you, I rarely make soup. My preference is for clear soups with interesting add-ins, like little liver dumplings or pancake noodles. But they are a lot of work, and so although the norm for my mother and grandmother, something I only do for dinner parties.
I gave this recipe a try last night and it was so delicious! My husband and daughter both said "Mmmmmm" on first bite, and then proceeded to scarf the rest down in a matter of seconds. This will definitely become a regular fall/winter meal for our family. Thank you for sharing. Now I'm off to eat some of the leftover soup for lunch! YAY!!!
That looks delicious!
I love using cauliflower in a soup. The flavor and texture goes so well with other ingredients, whether pureed or left in florets.
And roasting it adds depth! I made a soup this winter with roasted cauliflower, brown butter, caraway seeds, combined with potatoes roasted with rosemary. Lots of flavor, but not as elegant as yours!
I made this soup for dinner tonight and it was the best recipe I've ever found on this site. It really was phenomenal. My toddler son especially loved it. Thanks!

Lenzelle Smith Jr. helps Ohio State top Syracuse, reach Final Four

Updated: April 26, 2012 8:26AM
BOSTON — Even in these troubled times for basketball in Illinois, we expected Kentucky's Anthony Davis to give the Final Four a Chicago presence.
But Lenzelle Smith Jr.? Who knew?
The unheralded 6-4 sophomore guard from Zion came up with a big-time second half, scoring 16 of his 18 points after needing four stitches to repair a cut over his right eye in the first half to key Ohio State's 77-70 Elite Eight upset of Syracuse on Saturday.
The Orange wasn't just the top seed in the East. Playing in front of a partisan crowd of 19,026, this figured to be a TD Garden party for the Big East regular-season champion.
Even without its ineligible shot-blocker, Fab Melo, Syracuse (34-3), which survived Wisconsin on Thursday with stellar perimeter play and tough zone defense, seemingly had the poise and patience to make its first Final Four trip since 2003, when it won its lone national championship.
Instead, Syracuse legend Jim Boeheim fell to 1-7 against Big Ten teams in the NCAA tournament.
Ohio State (31-7) will be going to its first Final Four since 2007, when it lost to Florida in the title game.
''Honestly, I appreciate everybody that doubted this team,'' said Jared Sullinger, who led the Buckeyes with 19 points. ''[Everybody who] said we were underdogs, said we weren't good enough. Said we weren't mentally strong enough, physically strong enough. Too young. Too immature. We heard it all. When we were going through that slump in February, everybody was saying this team is going downhill.
''I want to thank you all because we pushed through all the adversity. I'm so proud of these guys. We came from nothing, according to you all, to something now.''
A 29-29 first half decided nothing, except to leave both teams fretting about fouls and unpredictable officiating. Sullinger played only six minutes, picking up his second foul on a ticky-tack call. And Boeheim drew a technical — his first in three years, he said — for protesting a shaky charging call on Brandon Triche.
That set the stage for a rock-solid second half by the Buckeyes, who had not looked like they had that in them in February home losses to Michigan State and Wisconsin that fueled the doubts.
''Everybody kind of pulled together,'' coach Thad Matta said.
''It was something we've been preaching. We told them, to win this game, somebody was going to have to step up and make plays.''
The key somebody was Smith, who joined Sullinger on the All-East Regional team. He'd had a big game before, going off for 28 against Indiana on Jan. 15. Other than that, though, he had not scored more than 12 in a game this season.
Smith didn't make it to the interview room because the cut required attention. But the Buckeyes knew what he had done.
''He did a lot for us, offensively and defensively,'' guard Aaron Craft said. ''He made a couple of big shots for us. And on the other end, he did a good job of keeping their great guards in front of him.''
Ohio State wound up 31-for-42 from the free-throw line, while Syracuse was 20-for-25 in a game in which the officiating was unsatisfying. The Orange was whistled for 28 fouls, Ohio State 20.
''Our defense wasn't the problem,'' Boeheim said. ''Our offense was the problem. And I guess we fouled them too many times.''
It left a bad taste for Syracuse's accomplished seniors.
''Like Coach said, tonight wasn't our night on the offensive end,'' Scoop Jardine said. ''The loss hurts, but me not playing with these guys for the rest of my life is going to hurt even more.''
Meanwhile, the Buckeyes will see if they can pull off another surprise or two.
''Hopefully, this is not our last game,'' Sullinger said. ''We're not going down to New Orleans for a vacation. It's a business trip.''

2013 Fantasy Football Rankings -- No. 25 Vincent Jackson, WR, Buccaneers
Is Tampa Bay deep threat a true WR1?
Published: May 15, 2013
» Get updates via Sportsmail
Height/weight: 6-foot-5, 230 pounds
Overall rank: No. 25
WR rank: No. 7
Average draft position: 28.83 (MockDraftCentral.com)
SN experts' mock:No. 38
2012 statistics: 72 receptions, 1,384 yards, 8 TDs
2013 Fantasy Source projections: 75 receptions, 1,350 yards, 9 TDs
The Fantasy Source is counting down its Top 25 players for 2013. Today, a look at Buccaneers WR Vincent Jackson.
Why you should draft him: Jackson, who carries basically the same imposing dimensions as Detroit's Calvin Johnson, delivered a career year with the Buccaneers that included 1,384 yards and eight TDs in 2012.
There are times when Jackson looks like the premier receiver in football, like the seven-catch, 216-yard effort against the Saints in Week 7. At other times, he disappears completely from a football field (two catches or less three times).
At least he's taking steps in the right direction. Jackson had at least 50 receiving yards in all but three games, and he had double-digit targets in eight games. He's a more consistent player, but fantasy owners have reservations.
Jackson was drafted in the fourth round in the Fantasy Source's latest experts' mock draft despite numbers that suggest he fits better in Round 3. Houston's Andre Johnson (No. 8) and San Francisco's Michael Crabtree (No. 9) were taken ahead of Jackson. Jackson is a value pick, but he comes with some baggage.
Red flag: Jackson kept the off-field distractions to a minimum in his first year with Tampa Bay, but those problems could always resurface with a disciplinarian coach like Greg Schiano. Can these two guys get along forever? The bigger problem is Jackson is not a high-reception guy.
Jackson had a career-high 72 catches in 2012, but that ranked just 25th in the league. The only other receivers in the top 10 who didn't have at least 85 receptions were Atlanta's Julio Jones (No. 4) and Seattle's Percy Harvin (No. 10). It's hard to consider Jackson a full-fledged WR1 because of that, but at least he ranked 10th in the league in targets (147). He needs to improve his rapport with Josh Freeman.
Stat that matters: Jackson averages 17.8 yards per reception for his career, second among qualifying active receivers behind former Saints home-run hitter Devery Henderson. Over the past three seasons, Jackson averages 18.8 yards per catch. Next to Megatron, Jackson is the best vertical threat in football. With more consistency, more receptions and continued good behavior on and off the field, Jackson could deliver on his tantalizing talent. Can owners count on all three things to happen?

Waldpolenz Solar Park, which was the world's largest thin-film photovoltaic (PV) power system, was built by German developer and operator Juwi at a former military air base to the east of Leipzig in Germany. The power plant was initially 40 MW solar power system using state-of-the-art thin film technology, and was fully operational by the end of 2008.[1] 550,000 First Solar thin-film modules from cadmium telluride (CdTe) are being used, which supply about 40,000 MWh of electricity per year.[2]
It was extended to 52 MWP in 2011[3] with the addition of a further 153,650 solar modules, also from First Solar.
The installation is located in the Muldentalkreis district in the state of Saxony in eastern Germany, built on half of the location's 220 hectares (543.6 acres)[4] in the townships of Brandis and Bennewitz.[5] The investment costs for the Waldpolenz solar park have amounted to some 130 million euro.[1]

Book news and reviews. Literacy. Reader empowerment. Anything else that inspires me.
It's a marvelous thing, the ocean. For some reason when two people sit together looking out at it, they stop caring whether they talk or stay silent. You never get tired of watching it. And no matter how rough the waves get, you're never bothered by the noise the water makes by the commotion of the surface - it never seems too loud, or too wild. Banana Yoshimoto, Goodbye Tsugumi (via bookmania)
The motion of the ocean. One of the most peaceful sounds I've ever heard. Often when I'm on a cruise ship, I'll end a busy day by staring out at the water, listening to the waves crash below me. I always sleep like a baby when at sea.
What a blessing it is to love books. Everybody must love something, and I know of no objects of love that give such substantial and unfailing returns as books and a garden. Elizabeth von Arnim (via booksandhotchocolate)
Teach a child to read, and give them a gift that will pay dividends for the rest of their lives.

"Everyone is hard-working, unbelievably friendly, dedicated and united for a greater purpose — ending global health inequality. When something so meaningful is a common factor in an environment, it's electrifying. Contagious. Invigorating. Really makes waking up every morning a pleasure rather than a chore," said Amanda Prifti, a senior at Northeastern finishing her final co-op at Partners in Health.
Acumen Fund
Very low-income people are too often invisible to businesses and society. Businesses see no significant market opportunity and governments view low-income areas as having insufficient tax revenues to pay for basic services like clean water, healthcare, housing and energy. Building new models that provide these critical services at affordable price – in the face of high costs, poor distribution systems, dispersed customers, limited financing options and, at times, corruption – requires imaginative business solutions and partnerships supported by investors willing to take on a risk/return profile that is unacceptable to traditional financiers.
An Unexpected Loss and a Gentle Reminder
Earlier this month we lost one of our beloved students, Naman Shah, to an untimely death at the age of 21. His short life reminds me of a something I read long ago, that given a choice between a life of comfort and a life of meaning, the wise person will choose the latter. We too often hear of unnecessary and premature deaths in the world, in fact we've all seen the statistic that several thousand children die needlessly each day from poverty and disease. Every life matters, and yet when it's someone you know, whose path crossed yours, the idea of a senseless death in the face of such promise is that much more powerful.
Valuating Nature
The goods and services that we depend on daily would not exist without the assistance of nature in the supply chain. Humans constantly derive ecosystem services from nature, like how watersheds source our taps and faucets or how bees fertilize plants for our morning cup of coffee.

Once the Miami Heat's namesake sidelined its leader, the San Antonio Spurs pounced on the opportunity and grabbed Game 1 of the 2014 NBA Finals in a 110-95 comeback victory.
After the air conditioning system went out of commission, the NBA's best player, LeBron James, followed suit in a sweltering AT&T Center in San Antonio.
James led all scorers with a game-high 25 points (on 9-of-17 shooting), but suffering from severe leg cramps, the four-time league MVP was carried off the floor with the game still hanging in the balance in the final minutes.
The scene was a shame (or given LeBron's circumstance, lame) for NBA fans, who witnessed players on each team undergoing their usual post-game rituals of icing down, much earlier — during the game — to keep cool through temperatures that approached 90 degrees inside the arena.
For Heat fans, specifically, it was even worse to see how their team folded defensively without James.
"You don't want to see you best player come out of the came in winning time," said guard Dwyane Wade (19 points). "We would have loved to have him in there, but we've got to finish the game no matter who's on the floor."
Head coach Erik Spoelstra admitted, "It felt like a punch in the gut when you see you leader limping like that, back to the bench… It was an unusual environment. We usually have the hotter arena this time of year… both teams had to deal with it… we're not making any excuses."
Just before James was forced to leave, center Chris Bosh (18 points) went on a personal 6-0 run to give Miami — which trailed 58-49 early in the third quarter — an 86-79 lead, with 9:37 remaining.
But a short while later, with the Heat up, 86-82, James missed a 19-foot jumper from the right wing with eight minutes left and immediately asked out of the game.
By the time he came back in, with 4:33 to go, the Spurs led, 94-90, after completing a game-turning 15-4 spurt, which they extended to a commanding 31-9 run to close the game.
Trying his best to remain in the game, James cut Miami's deficit in half, to 94-92, on a layup with 4:09 left. But in intense pain, James left for good, just 10 seconds later, as the game quickly got away from the Heat thereafter.
"It was an explosion," Spoelstra said. "The floodgates came open at that point."
San Antonio was especially sparked by forward Danny Green, who after starting 0-for-5 through three quarters, made all four of his shots in the final period, including a trio of buckets from 3-point range, to finish with 13 points.
"I was pushing him hard," said point guard Tony Parker (19 points, eight assists) of Green. "Every time out, I was yelling at him… I told him after the game, I was proud of him."
While Miami missed James' offense down the stretch, his defense had kept Green in check until James started cramping up. Spoelstra credited Green though, saying, "He has a way of shaking free when you're concentrating on other guys."
Regarding the arena conditions, new NBA commissioner Adam Silver said, "It is unfortunate, but these are the kinds of things that can happen at live sporting events."
Silver's league isn't the only one to have a venue malfunction affect a major sport's biggest stage. Far worse than what occurred in Game 1, was the blackout that suspended Super Bowl XLVII for more than a half-hour, 16 months ago.
Rod Thorn, the league's president of basketball operations chalked up the situation to such a luck. "Sometimes things transpire," he said.
In this case, what would transpire, caused all to perspire.
A former player, Thorn said, "I've recalled playing in [similar kind of] games in Boston Garden and Chicago Stadium."
Ironically, the old Boston Garden was the site of the famed "Heat Game," in Game 5 of the 1984 Finals, during which Larry Bird led the Boston Celtics to a 121-103 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers with 34 points and 17 rebounds in 97-degree heat.
Back then, the Celtics were often accused of intentionally making the Boston Garden as warm as possible for playoff opponents like the Lakers.
Although Spoelstra dismissed the notion of a similar conspiracy raised by a reporter, James — who has had a history of dealing with cramping issues over his career, and who received IV fluids after the game — told his teammates during a third-quarter timeout, "I'm gonna need some colder water. They're trying to smoke us outta here."
Former NBA star and current analyst Isiah Thomas, who battled those 1980s Celtics teams, joked about the reporters implication while agreeing with Spoelstra.
"It was only real in Boston," he quipped.
Not everyone on the floor was affected in a bad way.
"It felt like my gym in high school, so I felt right at home," Heat guard Ray Allen (16 points) said. "But it does fatigue you."
Parker, a Belgian native who began his career in France, said with a smile, "It felt like I was playing in Europe. We don't have A/C [in arenas there]. It didn't bother me at all."
Star forward Tim Duncan (team-high 21 points on 9-of-10 shooting), who was born in the U.S. Virgina Islands, where he played in high school, said of the building temperature, "It was significant. I don't think I've played in anything like [that] since I left the Islands. It was pretty bad out there."
Green noted, "I felt it in the first couple of minutes," while adding, "We couldn't give in to the heat."
Or the Heat.
Game 2 of the first series to return to a 2-2-2-1-1-1 format (switching from 2-3-2) since the 1984 Finals, coincidentally will be played on the 30th anniversary of Boston's "Heat Game," on Sunday, after the Spurs tied an NBA record with an 11th straight Game 1 victory, to match Bird's Celtics (1985-87) and Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls (1996-98).
Head coach Gregg Popovich, after saying, "I think everybody got a little tired, a little dehydrated, for sure," offered a solution — in typical humorous Popovich fashion — to keep his home arena much cooler for the next game.
"Hopefully, we can pay our bills," he said.

This is my favorite photo of Chona's from Sasquatch! because there is a man playing a tiny drum set on top of a converted ambulance/armored car filled with bros giving each other back massages. He also totally saw Chona take this and pointed at her lovingly with his drumstick. Check out her wonderful shots (and my nerdy words) at Herschel Supply's Well Travelled blog. (We lived out of their backpacks throughout the festival and I'd do it again because yaaaaay lack of excruciating shoulder pain!)
