You've likely heard about the benefits of working in a state of "flow," being able to to arguably do our best work. While research has shown which environments and activities enable states of flow and which hinder it, new and surprising insights into how we can actively get into our flow continues to arise.
For example, on The Huffington Post, author Daniel Goleman dives through research from the University of Chicago, giving us three powerful ways to get into the flow at work. Goleman writes:
The first method involves assigning tasks according to skill set. In the Chicago study, this was put in terms of the ratio of a person's abilities to the demand of the task. The more a challenge requires us to deploy our best skills, the more likely we will become absorbed in flow.
When we're not challenged, our performance suffers and we become disengaged. That's the plight of a large portion of knowledge workers, some statistics suggest. Upping the challenge would help to immerse these workers, and for a lucky few perhaps get them into flow.
…we can get into a state of flow through fully absorbed focus. The stronger the concentration we bring to a task, the more likely we are to drop into flow while doing it. While the other paths to flow depend on external factors — the challenge/demand ratio, finding work that aligns ethics, excellence and engagement — full focus is an inner dimension. The better our ability to pay attention to what we choose and ignore distractions, the stronger our concentration.
How often do you find yourself thinking that you can't get into a work flow because of external factors? According to Goleman, if you want to really get into the flow of things at work you shouldn't blame how the office environment or other's attitudes makes you feel. Instead, you should attempt to find work you can get authentically excited about, work that challenges your abilities, and — most importantly — work that allows you to focus seriously for at least a few minutes every hour.
Read Goleman's insights on getting into a state of flow at work right here.
Previously: Not Too Hard, Not Too Easy: Finding Flow In Your Work
In a new study by Cornell University assistant psychology professor Emily Zitek and Vanderbilt University post-doctoral researcher Lynne C. Vincent proposes that entitlement can stimulate your creativity:
Our results suggest that people who feel more entitled value being different from others, and the greater their need for uniqueness, the more they break convention, think divergently and give creative responses.
The key is to stir feelings of entitlement right before doing something creative. In the study, subjects did this by writing a few sentences about why they deserved positive outcomes. Sort of like a pep talk before you take on a task. However, don't get too carried away; the study found that it only worked for those who had temporary boosts of entitlement, not those in a perpetual state of self importance.
Burnout. You know the stages, you know the signs and you know how to avoid it. But despite our best efforts, it still happens.
Entrepreneur, weightlifter, and travel photographer James Clear shares his simple visualization to help us lead a balanced life: a bucket.
Imagine that your health and energy are a bucket of water. In your day-to-day life, there are things that fill your bucket up. These are inputs like sleep, nutrition, meditation, stretching, laughter, and other forms of recovery.There are also forces that drain the water from your bucket. These are outputs like lifting weights or running, stress from work or school, relationship problems, or other forms of stress and anxiety.
Clear says that if we want to keep your bucket full, we have two options:
- Refill your bucket on a regular basis. That means catching up on sleep, making time for laughter and fun, eating enough to maintain solid energy levels, and otherwise making time for recovery.
- Let the stressors in your life accumulate and drain your bucket. Once you hit empty, your body will force you to rest through injury and illness.
Recovery is non-negotiable: you can recover on your own terms or on the terms burnout sets when it inevitably catches up to you. The choice is yours.
"It's easy to miss the real point of our lives even as we're living them," writes Arianna Huffington in her book Thrive. "And it is very telling what we don't hear in eulogies." Those things include making senior vice president, sacrificing kids' Little League games to go over those numbers one more time, or my personal favorite: "she dealt with every email in her inbox every night."
"You never hear, 'George increased market share by 30 percent,'" Huffington said at a recent event at Soho House in New York City. What you do hear in eulogies, she says, are stories of "small kindnesses."
It's well known that details make good art great. Subtle word choices separate great poets from amateurs. Small flourishes define superlative architecture. Tiny considerations make products world-class ("Jobs spent days agonizing over just how rounded the corners should be," writes Walter Isaacson about the Apple II in Steve Jobs).
I think the same can be said about building a great business. Tiny considerations in the interactions companies have with their customers are all about focusing on people before profits—and, paradoxically, this can yield huge returns. This is the mentality that Wharton professor Adam Grant talks about in his research on corporate "givers" versus "takers." In various now-famous studies in his book Give and Take, Grant has shown that the most successful people in the workplace tend to be the ones who give selflessly to others without expectation of returned favors. Research by Jim Stengel, former global marketing head at Procter & Gamble, shows that this also works at a corporate level. Businesses "center[ed] on improving people's lives outperform their competitors," he writes, after studying a decade of market performance of fifty thousand brands.
In Thrive, Huffington argues that power and money have too long been life's main yardsticks of success, and that we should measure our achievements instead by four new metrics: Wisdom, Wonder, Well-Being, and Giving. If the eulogy test is an indication, Giving is likely the most memorable of the four.
"It's tempting to reserve the giver label for larger-than-life heroes such as Mother Teresa or Mahatma Gandhi, but being a giver doesn't require extraordinary acts of sacrifice," Grant writes in Give and Take. "It just involves a focus on acting in the interests of others."
This is an excerpt from 99U's new book, Make Your Mark. It features 21 essays and interviews on building a creative business with impact, including the full text of this essay by Contently co-founder and journalist Shane Snow.
Over on Inc., Neil Patel, co-founder of KISSmetrics, shares 16 tips for getting 90 percent of your work done in the morning, after which you can push back from your desk to enjoy a leisurely lunch.
His approach is built on the Pareto principle, which holds that 80 percent of your results come from 20 percent of your efforts. Arrange the layout of your work day by front-loading, so that you're executing the meat of your workload when you're freshest and firing on all cylinders.
A few favorites from his suggestions:
Schedule your day the night before. Every day, you should list all your tasks and when you're going to do them the following day. You will not be productive unless you plan out everything you're going to do the next morning. Quick tip: Don't schedule too much. Keep your to-do schedule light to actually accomplish real work.
Make 60-second decisions. Decision making is a time-draining vortex. When you're faced with a decision in the course of your work, give yourself a one-minute limit. Your decision will be just as good, but it will take less time.
Do your writing early on. Writing is one of the most mentally demanding tasks. However, writing also has the power of focusing your brain and improving your productivity. Do you writing early in the day, and you'll improve both the quality of your writing and the rest of your day.
Reward yourself at a certain time. Set the clock–a countdown timer if you have to. At a certain point, you're going to stop. So, stop. Break out the kazoos, throw some confetti, and do your happy dance. It's time to reward yourself.
What better motivation than a refreshing mid-day break and the knowledge that you've drilled through the bulk of your workload? You'll be primed to zero in on the remaining 10 percent.
Conventional wisdom holds that the higher echelons of any industry are populated by people who never quit. But writer and designer Sarah Kathleen Peck suggests that quitting is not only OK, it can be richly constructive.
In a post on Medium, Peck describes what she learned from observing her enduring pattern of enthusiastically starting projects, pausing partway through, and beating herself up for failing to ship:
What was happening? Why was I quitting? Life happened. Things got hard, they got rough: deadlines built up. Real work pulled me in. The need to take a run and take care of my body surfaced. The competing pulls of attention and focus and deadlines wrapped me in their compelling arms. But something else was happening, too. Ten days of paper-crafting…led me to building an entirely new online program of my own.
Skimming the lessons in a business-building mastermind opened up a new way of creating sales pages. Reading half of a book propelled me into my next project. And then it hit me: what if I was getting exactly what I needed?
The idea is that quitting can beneficially lead to embarking on a different project that's informed and nourished by the abandoned one. Peck suggests that it's possible the ego is the only part of ourselves that actually cares about finishing, at least when it comes to exploratory creative work:
You don't have to do everything to get something out of it…. No one said you have to get 100% done and be perfect to enjoy the fruits of your progress.
If you're working on something that's not beholden to someone else's deadline or parameters, don't finish for the sake of finishing. Quit to see what space you've opened up for something even greater.
On the commentary track (around 5:11) for Pixar's animated film, WALL-E, director and writer Andrew Stanton discusses how the creative process can sometimes lead you to unexpected places and hard decisions:
I always sort of always equate story development to an archaeological dig, in that you kind of know the dinosaur you want to dig up and where it is. You pick a piece on the ground and you start digging and you bring up bones and you start trying to piece together this dinosaur or the story you're trying to find, but you just don't have much say about which bones you're going to get and what bones they are…
Stanton understands that sometimes everything about your dig will point to a tyrannosaurus rex. Then at the last minute you'll dig up something and realize all your bones were backwards and you actually have a stegosaurus. He asks the hard question: do you shift everything around at the last minute to show a stegosaurus or do you just force it to be a tyrannosaurus rex?
Even if it extends the deadline, it's better to realign your project then to force it to be something it's not. When the creative process takes your concept for a spin, go with it. Stanton concludes, "I am very, very lucky that I work for a place that encourages last minutes ideas."

Lucroy's homer gives Brewers 7-6 win over Reds
Jonathan Lucroy hit a two-run homer off Aroldis Chapman in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Milwaukee Brewers a 7-6 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night.
Jean Segura sparked the winning rally when he beat out a leadoff chopper to shortstop for his third hit. Lucroy then drove a 1-2 pitch to left for his 17th homer, snapping Cincinnati's five-game winning streak.
Lucroy clapped his hands as he rounded first base and ditched his batting helmet before heading into a crowd of teammates surrounding home plate. It was his first career game-ending homer.
Chapman (3-5) had converted each of his last six save opportunities.

The Port of Erie is located on the southeast shore of Lake Erie in a natural bay formed and sheltered by Presque Isle peninsula. Its harbor entrance channel is narrow and 29 feet deep. Dredging is a constant concern. In fact, dredging of harbors around the Great Lakes has been a hot button issue for the maritime industry.
Funding is provided by the Harbor Maintenance Tax which is a user fee collected by the federal government to ensure the adequate maintenance and operations of waterway infrastructure by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
On Tuesday, March 4, the Corps released their FY14 budget. It included an additional $25 million for Great Lakes harbors - $13.8 million of which will be dedicated to dredging. The Port of Erie is slotted to receive an additional $1.52 million toward maintenance dredging of their waterway.
Raymond Schreckengost, executive director of the Port applauded the news, "The simple fact is that without this allocation, we would be severely impacted in our operations. These additional dollars are a direct result of our industry lobbying efforts and we look forward to working with the Corps on ensuring that our channel and turning basin, which is about 10-15 acres, are ready for the 2014 shipping season."
Donjon Shipbuilding and Repair, a member of the Erie Marine community and whose business depends upon adequate water depth for deep water vessels to access the Lake Erie facility, offered the following comments by its President and CEO, J. Arnold Witte, "Since our creation in December of 2009, we have been making positive strides every year, with the help of our friends and business partners throughout the Erie area - most importantly the Erie-Western Pennsylvania Port Authority - to increase our business."
White continued, "With the recent signing of a new build contract for a 185,000 Barrel Chemical Barge, the future remains bright. This proposed dredging project will allow us to continue to be in a position to offer both new build and repair services to the U.S. and Great Lakes marine communities and will help Donjon Shipbuilding remain a positive contributor to the continued economic success of the region."
Proper dredging of the Erie Harbor is also critical to the ongoing operations of Carmeuse Lime & Stone Erie Sand & Gravel. Area Operations Manager, Scott Rehder, said, "Erie Sand & Gravel depends on the harbor for the safe and navigable access for our inbound stone shipments via self-unloading vessels, project cargoes and other port activities by salt-water vessels, dredging operations on the J.S. St. John, and for those vessels that come here each winter for repairs at our docks. We have also secured a multi-year contract with the Corps of Engineers to provide beach sand to Presque Isle State Park that must be delivered by lake vessel through the Erie Harbor."
The Port said it is looking forward to the 2014 shipping season and beyond. The Pennsylvania legislature has approved a five-year highway funding package that includes funding for the Port. Bringing in aggregates for highway construction is a primary function for the Port through its tenant, Erie Sand & Gravel. In 2013, the port handled between 500-750,000 tons and looks to meet or beat that tonnage in 2014.

Luke Cage and other superheroes to receive Netflix showsNovember 9, 2013 // 0 Comments
by Kyle Harvey
Television series like Orange Is The New Black and House of Cards have made the web-streaming service Netflix a viable alternative to traditional TV programming.
Netflix subscribers proudly binge on their favorite shows in one sitting and the company embraces that mentality, which has only made their brand more successful.
In a partnership between Disney and Marvel, look for more Netflix series of the superhero variety.
theGrio slideshow: Classic black comic book heroes
Following in the footsteps of ABC's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, Netflix will have four new live-action shows revolving around superheroes Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, and Iron Fist that will premiere in 2015.
For those who are unfamiliar with Marvel comics, the four heroes were all Avengers at one point — so potential crossovers with Iron Man, Thor and The Hulk are possible.
Rumors of Michael B. Jordan casting as Human Torch ignite comic book race debate
Fans of Luke Cage in particular should be elated. Cage is a pioneering black comic book character, and Hollywood has been interested in bringing him to the big screen for years.

Who Voted and Why? A Roundtable Discussion on the Ethnic, Religious and Social Makeup of Voters in the Elections
Exit polls are showing significant shifts in voting patterns among the electorate. Democrats succeeded in winning back some religious voters who had voted solidly Republican in the last few elections. For the first time since 1996, a majority of Florida Latinos voted Democrat. Young voters had a huge increase in turnout with two million more young people voting on Tuesday than in the 2002. And African American voter turnout made the difference in tight races like Missouri and Virginia. We host a roundtable discussion. [includes rush transcript]

If you rely on your cell phone to tell time, you're missing out on a great opportunity to complete your look and showcase your great taste. Watches are something women as well as your buds notice. A slip of the wrist can upgrade your outfit as well as communicate your lifestyle, interests and style savvy -- if you keep these rules in mind.
Make the rubber hit the road: A sport watch worn with dressier clothes automatically detracts from a sophisticated look, so match your timepiece to the outfit. Do you really need a stopwatch and heart rate monitor at your weekly meeting? OK, maybe you do, but keep yours back at the gym and away from the conference table.
Embrace the past: Vintage watches make a statement, regardless of their cost. If you want an instant conversation starter, rely on the storied past of your chronograph. If you inherited from your father or grandfather and it holds sentimental value, all the better. See more watches you'll want in the Ultimate Guide to Watches.
Bling can be too bold: Just like a guy who looks a little too perfectly coiffed, pressed and shined, a bit too-flashy. A stainless steel face and band is always appropriate, offering the perfect amount of style without being overly bold. Don't own one? Check out your chance to win a Gents Freelancer Automatic from RAYMOND WEIL.
The naked truth: You might not wear a watch for a variety of reasons, but a wrist without a watch still relays a message to her: it suggests you don't have a lot of regard for schedules, says Nascar's Danica Patrick. See what else she notices about a guy's watch.

Idle speed has been computer-controlled for the last 25 - 30 years. When the air conditioning turns on it puts an extra load on the engine. The Engine Computer will pulse the idle speed motor, (it's not really an electric motor), to keep the idle speed at the specified value. Engine idle speed should hold steady. It should not increase when the air conditioning turns on and it should not decrease when you shift into drive or reverse.

Governor Walker of Wisconsin and four of his supporters won recall elections rather handily last week. I found it interesting that Yahoo News called his 53 percent to 46 percent margin of victory a narrow victory! In fact, this victory could even be considered a landslide, because the victory was by a larger margin than Walker's win in his original election in 2010. It is clearly a mandate by the people of Wisconsin.

From ranch to runway
|| Print |
|Archives - November 2009
|Wednesday, October 21, 2009
In front of a crowd of black-clad urbanites sitting in the dark, rancher Jeanne Carver told her "sunlight story." It was the closing event of Portland Fashion Week in early October, and Carver had been asked to do something unusual for a fashion show. The cowgirl-slim evangelist stood in the spotlight and told the story of her historic Shaniko sheep and cattle ranch and her 10-year journey to bring the wool from the sheep off the ranch and onto the runway, which was about to debut that night as the Imperial Collection by Anna Cohen.
"I've been to a lot of rodeos, but this is my first fashion show," she admitted. And then she launched into the sunlight story, tying together the animals that eat the sun-grown grasses, converting it to food and fiber that sustain human life. It's a cycle that she witnesses every day at the Imperial Ranch, which she and her husband, Dan, have owned and operated since 1988. Dan was, of course, in the audience, wearing a white Stetson and surely the only cowboy boots in the room that had seen actual cows.
The collection's debut was the punctuation on a project with well-regarded Portland designer Anna Cohen that began a year ago, and to a journey by Carver that started long before that.
After the collapse of the American sheep industry, the Carvers in 1999 started creating retail products from their raw commodities to survive: artisanal beef and lamb for restaurants, and handcrafted yarn and apparel from the wool. They not only wanted the ranch to be environmentally sustainable, but also economically sustainable. A turning point for the fiber operation came in 2004 when clothing retailer Norm Thompson agreed to sell the garments that Jeanne produced in collaboration with local weavers, knitters and other artists. "It was the basis for everything we are doing today," says Carver, who wears her determination and passion as easily as her wool.
In November 2007, the ranch got a regional grant from Mt. Hood Economic Alliance to support its fiber business, and Erin Stone, who comes from a Sherman County family ranch, was brought on board two months later to direct sales and marketing. The two then submitted a grant request to the USDA to fund market research, a feasibility study and a business plan that would position the yarn and apparel business to a broader audience. Carver had kept a 2007 profile of Cohen, who specializes in sustainable fashion, on her desk for a year, and in the spring of 2008 she and Stone contacted Cohen about using "Oregon sunlight fabrics" in her designs. When the USDA awarded the ranch a $100,000 grant in the fall of 2008, which the Carvers personally matched, Cohen joined the team to provide creative direction, input into the business plan and to design a collection using Imperial materials, while Carver focused on production, delivery and her passionate vision.
"Dan and I have made a huge commitment," says Carver, who would like to return their focus to the land they steward. "What we are really ready for is a strong, sustainable financial partner and a strong leader to join us and take it on from here. We hope to solidify some interest so we can carry this local model forward." The pot is bubbling: The yarn line is outselling the ranch's production of wool, and is now being sold in Europe. The city of Portland is talking to them about creating uniforms for its police department. The team also plans to seek new grants.
"I've been telling that sunlight story for 10 years," Carver says. "I felt like the salmon swimming upstream. But now people are listening."
At the end of a show, it's tradition for the designer to appear briefly to accept the applause. But after Cohen took her bow, she brought out Carver and Stone to also be acknowledged by the crowd, which had warmly received Cohen's 11 sophisticated pieces.
A smug middle-aged couple who had been rolling their eyes and pointing to their watches while Carver spoke surprisingly wandered over to talk with her at some length. The next day, Cohen sent me a note saying, "You asked me if I thought people got it with Jeanne's story…I since have had lots of feedback from people who really loved knowing the story, who were moved and appreciated it. I thought it might be important to mention that."
Maybe Carver is right. Maybe people are finally listening.

Philip K. Dicks Phylogenic Memory and the Divine Fire
2007 11 06
By Brad Steiger |
In my book Gods of Aquarius: UFOs and the Transformation of Man [Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1976], I introduced the concept of the Star People, individuals who feel that they bear within their genes awareness acquired by extraterrestrial interaction with humans in prehistoric or ancient times and who have now been activated by DNA memory to fulfill a mission in assisting others in their spiritual and evolutionary advancement.
Sometime after the book's publication, I received a letter from Philip K. Dick, who told me that he suspected that he was such an individual as those whom I had profiled in the book. He had first realized this in 1974 when his own DNA memory packet began to fire within his psyche.
At that time, he told me, he was shown in a vision, more properly, an inner hologram, the cover of my book, Revelation: The Divine Fire (Prentice-Hall, 1973). A feminine voice told him that this book would help him to understand what was occurring to him. He was also told by the voice to get in touch with me.
Although Dick said that he did read the book and that he did receive the requisite information and comfort that he was promised during the vision, he was reluctant to contact me until he read of my research with those individuals whom I had given the name of Star People. Dick said that he was about to publish a novel (Valis, 1981) that would advance numerous similar concepts.
I wish to hide behind the veil of fiction, he wrote. I can claim that I made the whole thing up. The revelations that I received were so astounding that it has taken me five years to arrive at a place where I will even put forth the concept as fiction.
Dick was shown a vision of himself in a disabled spacecraft heading toward Earth in prehistoric times. He was one of the emigrants of a technologically sophisticated civilization that was undergoing vast convulsions. But the survivors of that extraterrestrial civilization feared that, once contact was lost with the home planet, they might lose continuity in terms of the handing down of their culture from generation to generation. The solution was phylogenic memory.
Dick explained phylogenic memory as complex DNA information packets distributed in dormant form:
These dominant DNA information packets would be disinhibited--induced to fire--in due time, depending on either synchronized inner biological clocks or pure chance stimuli. Or a combination of both, ideally. Thus even thousands of years later, the primordial civilization will be released in the minds of the astonished descendants who suppose themselves autochthones [aboriginal inhabitants] of the planet they now inhabit.
The DNA packets in a given individual will tell him: 1) Where he is from; 2) What made up that original civilization, his civilization; 3) His true nature and faculties; 4) What he must do.
Ideally, he will act out a series of responses based on the packet, the purpose of which is to create on his planet, insofar as it is possible, the civilization which his ancestors maintained.
I evaluate the current widespread firing of these phylogenic memory packets in those you call the Star People as a matter of supreme importance.
In February, 1974, my own DNA memory packet was disinhibited, either by an inner biological clock, which synchronized it with disinhibitions in other people, or by accident. It fired for one complete year.
When The Star People was published in February 1981, I included a number of anonymous quotes from Phil, attributing them to a "well-known science fiction writer's" take on what seemed to be a global phenomenon of men and women experiencing the awakening of their own DNA memory packets of somehow coming from the "stars."
During the course of our correspondence over the next few years, Phil told me that he had recognized the feminine voice that told him to read Revelation: The Divine Fire as the one that had spoken to him sporadically since his high school days. Eventually, the voice had identified herself as the Ruah, the Hebrew word for Spirit of God, Holy Spirit. She was, according to Phils understanding, a tutelary spirit, possessed of a transcendentally rational mind. The Ruah spoke to him in terse, succinct sentences, and communicated most often when he was falling asleep or waking up. He had to be very quiet and attentive in order to hear the brief messages that she relayed.
I had a revelation to share with Phil: The essence of The Divine Fire had been given to me in 1969 during a late night encounter with a hooded, monk-like entity. To silence my inquisitive--and startled--mind, the mysterious visitor had placed me into a deep sleep, but in the morning I arose with the complete outline of Revelation: The Divine Fire in my awakened consciousness. The book was published in 1973, about a year before Phil received the vision from the Ruah advising him to read it.
I lived in Phoenix in 1982, and Phil planned to come over around the time of my birthday in February to discuss a number of new concepts which were occurring to him. Blade Runner, based on his novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, had not yet been released. My memory is uncertain on this point, but Phil either called me after he had seen a rough cut of the film or just before he was going to see a screening. In either event, he died before the motion picture was released and before he made the trip to Phoenix that would have enabled us to have that final mind-meld. I was pleased a couple of years ago when Phils widow filled out the Star People/UFO Mystical Questionnaire that Sherry and I still make available on our website.
I know that Phils revelations are expanding with every new release of a motion picture based on his work, a film library that appears to birth another cinematic creation each year--Total Recall, Minority Report, A Scanner Darkly, Paycheck, Next. Somewhere Phil smiles upon his legacy with an even greater expanded memory packet, one now suffused with the cosmic awareness that awaits us all.

Swimmers must synchronize their movements with their teammates and the music.They must be able to execute inverted, gymnastics-like movements while holding their breath underwater.They do this in an unstable environment, never touching the bottom of the pool!
Synchronized swimming is simultaneously graceful and physically challenging. It is a demanding sport presented as a beautiful art form.

It's just time.
That is how Woodmore school superintendent Jane Garling describes her decision to retire on June 30.
"A lot of birthdays have passed," the educator said with a chuckle. Garling worked in the school district 17 years prior to being selected as superintendent four years ago.
Garling said she expects to enjoy retirement by spending a lot of time with family – especially her grandsons who attend Woodmore schools. That includes attending their hockey games – a luxury her schedule now doesn't always allow.
"I live in the community, so I will be around," Garling assured, adding she will likely volunteer for projects and events.
Before leaving, however, Garling will put all her energies into passage of a 2.99-mill emergency levy for the school district.
"We've been hurt pretty hard by the loss of tangible personal property taxes," Garling said.
The state began phasing out the tax on business inventory and equipment in 2006. The tax will be gone by the end of 2011. Since the phase out began, Woodmore has lost more than $1.2 million.
Cuts elsewhere have also been severe. She noted the loss of Ohio Reads state funding has impacted all school districts.
