Zachary Cramer, a Westminster College senior accounting and business administration major, won the 2012 David W. Edward Entrepreneurship Scholarship competition. The award includes a $3,500 academic scholarship.
The competition, conducted by Westminster's Department of Economics and Business and supported by funding from the Edward Trust in Youngstown, Ohio, requires students to prepare and present a business plan depicting the creation of a new or substantially improved business, product, service, or some combination of the three. The competition culminated April 3 with a presentation of his business plans to a panel of judges.
Cramer's winning plan detailed the start-up of TL - The Lounge, a restaurant/lounge in downtown New Wilmington. The facility would fill a niche market not currently provided in town: a restaurant with a variety of foods priced to attract the college-student budget as well as many local residents with evening entertainment and late-night service.
The plan outlined a well-researched business analysis, as well as a realistic location and marketing plan capable of creating and supporting a local business enterprise. A set of comprehensive financial projections summarized the expectations from both a start-up and a future growth perspective, according to the judges.
Cramer is a son of Steven Cramer of Luthersburg and a graduate of DuBois Area High School.
Contact Dr. Gail Miller, Westminster professor of business, at (724) 946-7168 (email) or David Smith, Westminster associate professor of accounting, at (724) 946-7161 (email) for additional information.

jones_supa writes "Delays keep piling up for the Mir display server on the Ubuntu desktop. After already being postponed multiple times, Mir might not be enabled by default on the Ubuntu Linux desktop until the 16.04 LTS release — in two years time! This was the estimate by Mark Shuttleworth in a virtual Ubuntu Developer Summit. Using Mir, Mark says, will lead to supporting more hardware, obtaining better performance, and 'do some great things' with the technology. He expects some users will start using Mir on the desktop over the next year. Mir is already packaged as an experimental option, along with an experimental Unity 8 desktop session."
realized writes in with a closer look at the NSA's QUANTUM system. "Today QUANTUM packs a suite of attack tools, including both DNS injection (upgrading the man-on-the-side to a man-in-the-middle, allowing bogus certificates and similar routines to break SSL) and HTTP injection. That reasonable enough. But it also includes gadgets like a plug-in to inject into MySQL connections, allowing the NSA to quietly mess with the contents of a third-party's database. (This also surprisingly suggests that unencrypted MySQL on the internet is common enough to attract NSA attention.) And it allows the NSA to hijack both IRC and HTTP-based criminal botnets, and also includes routines which use packet-injection to create phantom servers, and even attempting (poorly) to use this for defense."
Hugh Pickens DOT Com writes "Kate Murphy reports at the NYT about a growing number of so-called agrihoods, residential developments where a working farm is the central feature, in the same way that other communities may cluster around a golf course, pool or fitness center. At least a dozen projects across the country are thriving, enlisting thousands of home buyers who crave access to open space, verdant fields and fresh food. 'I hear from developers all the time about this,' says Ed McMahon. 'They've figured out that unlike a golf course, which costs millions to build and millions to maintain, they can provide green space that actually earns a profit.'
Agritopia, outside Phoenix, has sixteen acres of certified organic farmland, with row crops (artichokes to zucchini), fruit trees (citrus, nectarine, peach, apple, olive and date) and livestock (chickens and sheep). Fences gripped by grapevines and blackberry bushes separate the farm from the community's 452 single-family homes, each with a wide front porch and sidewalks close enough to encourage conversation. The hub of neighborhood life is a small square overlooking the farm, with a coffeehouse, farm-to-table restaurant and honor-system farm stand. The square is also where residents line up on Wednesday evenings to claim their bulging boxes of just-harvested produce, eggs and honey, which come with a $100-a-month membership in the community-supported agriculture, or CSA, program.
'Wednesday is the highlight of my week,' says Ben Wyffels. 'To be able to walk down the street with my kids and get fresh, healthy food is amazing.' Because the Agritopia farm is self-sustaining, no fees are charged to support it, other than the cost of buying produce at the farm stand or joining the CSA. Agritopia was among the first agrihoods — like Serenbe in Chattahoochee Hills, Ga.; Prairie Crossing in Grayslake, Ill.; South Village in South Burlington, Vt.; and Hidden Springs in Boise, Idaho. 'The interest is so great, we're kind of terrified trying to catch up with all the calls,' says Quint Redmond adding that in addition to developers, he hears from homeowners' associations and golf course operators who want to transform their costly-to-maintain green spaces into revenue-generating farms. Driving the demand, Redmond says, are the local-food movement and the aspirations of many Americans to be gentlemen (or gentlewomen) farmers. 'Everybody wants to be Thomas Jefferson these days.'"
The city of Detroit is planning a 26.9-acre urban farm project on one of its vacant high school properties. Produce from the project will be included in meals for students in the district and later to the larger community.
Advocatus Diaboli writes "Aviation investigators and national security officials believe the plane flew for a total of five hours based on data automatically downloaded and sent to the ground from the Boeing Co. 777's engines as part of a routine maintenance and monitoring program. As part of its maintenance agreements, Malaysia Airlines transmits its engine data live to Rolls-Royce for analysis. The system compiles data from inside the 777's two Trent 800 engines and transmits snapshots of performance, as well as the altitude and speed of the jet. Those snippets are compiled and transmitted in 30-minute increments, said one person familiar with the system." Update: 03/14 11:41 GMT by S : The WSJ has since updated its report to say the data was from the plane's satellite-communication system. However, Malaysian authorities have denied both scenarios, saying neither Boeing nor Rolls-Royce received data past 1:07am (the flight initially disappeared off radar at 1:30am).
SmartAboutThings writes "After a long journey of more than one year, which included even a successfully ended Kickstarter campaign, the VLC app for Windows 8 is officially here. VLC for Windows 8 is currently in beta, and it lacks some important features, such as the ability to open music files or support for Windows RT devices. On the good side, VLC for Windows 8 supports the same codecs as the VLC application for desktop, from MPEG-1 to H.265, through WMV3 and VC-1; it also supports multiple-audio tracks selection, embedded subtitles, background audio playback, Live Tiles, removable storage and DLNA servers."
wabrandsma writes with this story from NewScientist: "Google may be a master at data wrangling, but one of its products has been making bogus data-driven predictions. A study of Google's much-hyped flu tracker has consistently overestimated flu cases in the US for years. It's a failure that highlights the danger of relying on big data technologies.
Evan Selinger, a technology ethicist at Rochester Institute of Technology in New York, says Google Flu's failures hint at a larger problem with the algorithmic approach taken by technology companies to deliver services we all want to use. The problem is with the assumption that either the data that is gathered about us, or the algorithms used to process it, are neutral. Google Flu Trends has been discussed at slashdot before: When Google Got Flu Wrong."
cartechboy writes "The presidential limo is known as "The Beast," and it's getting to be about that time where it's replaced. Currently The Beast is a General Motors creation with a Cadillac badge, but what if the next presidential limo was a Tesla? Stick with me here. The Beast is a massive vehicle, which means there would be plenty of room in the structure to have a long battery pack a la Model S. Plus, it could use the upcoming Model X's all-wheel-drive system. Tesla's air suspension would keep it from encountering high-centering issues. There could even be a charging port on both the front and back so a battery truck could hook up while driving, like in-flight refueling. Obviously the battery pack would need to have extra protection so it wouldn't have any issues with road debris, but that's a minor issue. Tesla is an American company, and that's a requirement for The Beast. So is it that far fetched to think the next presidential limo could be a Tesla?"
itwbennett writes "The U.S. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court has temporarily reversed its earlier order that call records collected by the National Security Agency should be destroyed after the current five-year limit. The court modified its stand after a District Court in California on Monday ordered the government to retain phone records it collects in bulk from telecommunications carriers, as the metadata could be required as evidence in two civil lawsuits that challenge the NSA's phone records program under section 215 of the Patriot Act."
An anonymous reader writes with official news that, as expected, "Amazon officially announced that it is increasing Prime Membership fees from $79 to $99. Amazon Students will pay $49, and participants of Amazon Fresh (the grocery shopping service) will continue to have a $299 fee. The price hike in Prime Membership is attributed to rising shipping costs, but some wonder if the 'real question around Prime is whether it's sustainable at all, even at a higher price.'"
Nerval's Lobster writes "For years, Microsoft remained adamant about its licensing fees for Windows Phone: if a smartphone manufacturer wanted to include the software on its devices, it would need to pay Microsoft a certain amount per unit. That was a logical strategy for Microsoft, which became a very big company thanks to licensing fees for Windows and other platforms. Unlike some of those other products, however, Windows Phone has struggled for adoption in its marketplace, which is dominated by Apple and Google. In response, suggests the Times of India, Microsoft may have dumped licensing fees for two Indian smartphone makers, Karbonn and Lava (Xolo). Microsoft's biggest rival, Google, gives its Android mobile operating system away for free, a maneuver that helped it gain spectacular market-share in a relatively short amount of time. If Microsoft pursues a similar strategy in different markets, it could encourage more smartphone manufacturers to produce Windows Phone devices, which could increase the platform's market-share—but there are no guarantees that scenario will actually play out. The smartphone market is increasingly saturated, and Microsoft's opponents have no intention of allowing Windows Phone to gain any ground."
An anonymous reader writes "Mt. Gox CEO Mark Karpeles wrote in a sworn declaration in the company's U.S. bankruptcy filing he suspected hundreds of thousands of bitcoins were missing on Feb. 7, more than two weeks before it finally halted trading. That means Mt. Gox allowed its customers to continue trading, knowing that its bitcoin stash was wiped out and collecting as much as US$900,000 in trading fees. Since Mt. Gox said it was also missing $27.3 million in cash from customer deposits, it raises the possibility that customers — despite seeing a cash balance displayed in their account — might have actually been buying bitcoins that did not exist, with cash that was already long gone."
SmartAboutThings writes "Up until today, I always had the impression that cloud storage was pretty expensive and I'm sure that many will agree with me. It's a good thing that some bright minds over at Google have the same impressions as they now have drastically discounted the monthly storage plans on Google Drive. The new monthly storage plans and their previous prices are as follows: $1.99 for 100GB (previously $4.99), $9.99 for 1TB (previously $49.99), and $99.99 for 10TB.The 2 dollar plan per month means that the price for a gigabyte gets down to an incredibly low price of only two cents per month."
RSA holds big-time annual security conferences. The 2014 U.S. edition had 25,000 attendees, Stephen Colbert as the closing keynote speaker, and a major controversy (and some anger) from potential speakers and attendees over RSA's reputed $10 million contract with NSA to make sure the company's encryption software had back doors the secretive agency could use to spy on people and companies that use RSA software. This is part of a story that might be called The Snowden Revelations if it is made into a movie, but right now it's still controversial, and enough of a bombshell in the IT security industry that F-Secure's Mikko Hyppönen decided not to speak at this year's U.S. RSA conference, followed by Bruce Schneier, DEFCON founder Jeff Moss, Princeton professor Ed Felten, and other security luminaries.
And so, TrustyCon -- the Trustworthy Technology Conference -- was born. It was a sellout, with 400 people attending at $50 a head, and another 300 on a waiting list who couldn't get in. Slashdot's Tim Lord managed to get in, and got to speak briefly with several people there, including one of the TrustyCon organizers, Joel Wallenstrom. These were crude interviews, done on a "catch as catch can" basis, and the sound in them is poor. (Google sent a camera crew and shot over seven hours of the conference speakers, which you can watch on YouTube if you want to view TrustyCon presentations in good HD with great sound.). Will there be another TrustyCon next year? According to The Register, "The conference organizers said that, at this point, the plan is to hold another get-together next year, but that a final decision will be made closer to the time."

SpankiMonki writes "Following on the heels of the Mt Gox bankruptcy, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) plans to impose new regulations on currency exchanges dealing in bitcoin and other virtual currencies. Virtual currency exchanges would need to verify their customers' identities and report any suspicious transactions under the new rules.
The MAS said its regulation of virtual currency intermediaries — which include virtual currency exchanges and vending machines — was tailored specifically to the money-laundering and terrorism financing risks they posed. However, the new regulations would do nothing to ensure the solvency of virtual currency intermediaries or the safety of their client's funds."
theodp writes "'I want to explain why Common Core is among the most important education ideas in years,' wrote Bill Gates in a USA Today op-ed last month that challenged the "dangerous misconceptions" of those who oppose the initiative (pretty confident for a guy who conceded there wasn't much to show for his earlier $5B education reform effort!). 'The Gates Foundation helped fund this process,' acknowledged Gates in quite an understatement of his influence. Receiving $6.5M in Gates Grants was Student Achievement Partners, whose founder David Coleman was dubbed the 'Architect of the Common Core.' So it's not too surprising that at last week's SXSWedu, Coleman — now President and CEO of The College Board (no stranger to Gates money itself) — announced a dramatic overhaul of the SAT that includes a new emphasis on evidence-based reading and writing and evidence analysis, which the AJC's Maureen Downey calls 'reflective of the approach of the Common Core State Standards.'"

MojoKid writes "The Asus Chromebox is a tiny palm-sized machine similar in form and footprint to Intel's line of NUC (Next Unit of Computing) mini PCs. One of the higher-end Asus Chromebox variants coming to market employs Intel's 4th generation Haswell Core series processor architecture with Integrated HD 4400 graphics. The machine is packed with fair number of connectivity options including four USB 3.0 SuperSpeed ports, HDMI and DisplayPort output, a microSD Flash card slot, 802.11n dual-band WiFi, and Bluetooth 4.0. It also sports a 1.7GHz dual-core Core i3-4010U processor with Hyper-Threading for four logical processing threads and 4GB of DDR3 1600MHz memory. Finally, the onboard 16GB SSD storage might be appear a bit meager, but it's backed up by 100GB of Google Drive cloud storage for 2 years. In testing, the device proved to be capable in some quick and dirty browser-based benchmarks. For the class of device and use case that the Chromebox caters to, Google has covered most of what folks look for with the Chrome OS. There's basic office productivity apps, video and media streaming apps, and even a few games that you might care to fire up. The Asus Chromebox handles all of these usage types with ease and it's also barely audible while consuming only about 18 Watts under load."
Rambo Tribble writes "Ultraviolet light flashes, or "corona", may be scaring animals and altering behavior. An international scientific team, first studying behavioral anomalies in reindeer near power lines, have found that sporadic flashes of UV from the lines are probably responsible. As most mammals can see into the UV spectrum, this has broad implications for the disruption of animal behavior. From the BBC article: "Since, as the researchers added, coronas 'happen on all power lines everywhere,' the avoidance of the flashes could be having a global impact on wildlife.""
sandbagger writes "The director of the U.S. government office that monitors scientific misconduct in biomedical research has resigned after 2 years out of frustration with the 'remarkably dysfunctional' federal bureaucracy. Officials at the Office of Scientific Integrity spent 'exorbitant amounts of time' in meetings and generating data and reports to make their divisions look productive, David Wright writes. He huge amount of time he spent trying to get things done made much of his time at ORI 'the very worst job I have ever had.'"
dcblogs writes that the Obama Administration is urging tech entrepreneurs "to sign up for health insurance under the Affordable Care Act, and said having the coverage will give them the 'freedom and security' to start their own businesses. 'There is strong evidence that when affordable healthcare isn't exclusively tied to employment, in more instances people choose to start their own companies,' wrote White House CTO Todd Park in a post to launch its #GeeksGetCovered campaign. Bruce Bachenheimer, a professor of management at Pace University and director of its Entrepreneurship Lab, said the effort is part of a broader appeal by the White House to get younger and healthier people to sign-up for Obamacare, and is in the same vein as President Obama's recent appearance on Between Two Ferns." Removing the tax structures that make companies by default intermediaries in the provision of health insurance, and allowing more interstate (and international) competition in health finance options would help on that front, too, aside from who's actually footing the insurance bill.
gnujoshua writes "Paul Kocialkowski (PaulK), a developer for the Replicant project, a fully free/libre version of Android, wrote a guest blog post for the Free Software Foundation announcing that whlie hacking on the Samsung Galaxy, they "discovered that the proprietary program running on the applications processor in charge of handling the communication protocol with the modem actually implements a back-door that lets the modem perform remote file I/O operations on the file system." They then replaced the proprietary program with free software.
While it may be a while before we can have a 100% free software microcode/firmware on the the cellular hardware itself, isolating that hardware from the rest of your programming and data is a seemingly important step that we can take right now. At least to the FSF anyhow. What do others think: is a 100% free software mobile device important to you?"

An anonymous reader writes "Since the NSA's phone metadata program broke last summer, politicians have trivialized the privacy implications. It's 'just metadata,' Dianne Feinstein and others have repeatedly emphasized. That view is no longer tenable: Stanford researchers crowdsourced phone metadata from real users, and easily identified calls to 'Alcoholics Anonymous, gun stores, NARAL Pro-Choice, labor unions, divorce lawyers, sexually transmitted disease clinics, a Canadian import pharmacy, strip clubs, and much more.' Looking at patterns in call metadata, they correctly diagnosed a cardiac condition and outed an assault rifle owner. 'Reasonable minds can disagree about the policy and legal constraints,' the authors conclude. 'The science, however, is clear: phone metadata is highly sensitive.'"
jfruh writes "Android apps sold through the Google Play app store require the user to enter their username and password before making an in-app purchase — but once they've done that, they can continue to do so for half an hour without re-authenticating. Now a lawsuit is claiming this loophole allows children to run up in-app purchases on their parents' credit cards, 'causing Google to pocket millions of dollars.'"
sciencehabit writes "A 40 micrometer crystal trapped inside a diamond unearthed by magma in Brazil could help settle a long-standing debate about the amount of water in Earth's mantle. Spectroscopic analysis reveal that the crystal contains hydrogen-oxygen bonds, which suggests it's composed of at least 1.4% water. The place where the diamond was produced--Earth's lower mantle--may not be typical of the entire lower mantle, but if it is then there could be a lot of water down there. This would be important, as changes in the temperature in the mantle could cause it to expel highly pressurized steam, which could lead to volcanic eruptions."

.- Archbishop Javier del Rio of Arequipa, Peru recently stated that Catholics cannot vote for presidential candidates who support abortion.
"In no way can one vote for a candidate who has explicitly stated his or her intention to go against marriage, human life and the family," the archbishop told CNA in an April 7 interview.
The country's presidential elections will take place Sunday, April 10.
"An informed Catholic can never vote for a candidate who supports these kinds of policies, because that is expressly stated in the compendium of Social Teachings of the Church," he explained.
Catholics have a duty to participate in the political life of their country and to inform themselves about the positions of those running for office, he continued. "We must not be influenced by whether we like or don't like a candidate, but rather we must conscientiously study their plans for governing," the archbishop said.
The backgrounds of the candidates must also be evaluated, he added, including their "credibility, their dedication to work, their seriousness and their honesty."
"This, together with the Social Teachings of the Church, should form the basis for our vote," he explained.
Bishop Miguel Irizar of Callao, Peru told CNA that voters must pray for discernment in choosing the best candidates. All Peruvians must be treated with dignity and respect, he said, adding that those who will assume public office must carry out the mission for which they were elected.
He exhorted future lawmakers "to follow the law, God's law first, and to enact legislation based on the common good."

Iv had plastic surgery before and that is what they use no pain her local is just like going to the Dentist except it wears off and you have horrible , horrible pain I was screaming please give me pain medicine or something Dr Campano was very annoyed and wanted me to wait finally after yelling so long she told her assistant to get me one of my pills. After all that pain and money my stomach looks worse Dr Campano said it was because I didn't rub it hard enough which hurt like heck . My stomach never got better looking and it was because her procedure ,she could cared less Dr Campano wouldn't even discuss it and tried to say it was my fault for not rubbing my stomach hard enough .

Tonsils out. Incredible pain post-op. Bleeding on Halloween night. Left message as heading to ER. Doc called me back right away and helped me get bleeding under control. Didn't have to go to emergency room. Worked with me to get meds to my Pharmicy over the phone. Follow up was good. Only issue I had was an initial snafu with scheduling that caused me to have to delay surgery. Directions on getting labs and everything I needed was given to me at an assumed level of understanding. Took some figuring out but got it straight. The staff worked with me to get the results pushed to my PCM for release for surgery. Overall, my experience has been very good considering the recovery was so very bad. I would reccomend this doctor to others.

I had post-op MRSA after a procedure with Dr. Campano. She was not interested in helping me, too busy. MRSA can be fatal. I sought care with another doctor who helped me. I was stupid to go for the post-op visit to see her and she was rude to me as she did not like the treatment the other doctor had prescribed. I do not recommend her.

Horrible Horrible!! Her and her staff are rude and condescending! Anything I questioned or brought up regarding my sons treatment was blown off as if I were an idiot! Waited over an hour and half to see the doc and received no apology or explanation. When I asked about the wait the Dr. said it was always going to be a long wait. And proceeded to be even more rude to me. NOT good with children at all, no patience. The final straw was after arguing with the dr. and staff over trivial things when scheduling surgery, I received a call from her office a few days later stating they would NOT do the surgery and were referring my son back to his pediatrician. More concerned with her plastic/cosmetic surgery rather than being an ENT dr., as is obvious by the glaring botox ads and the infomercial video playing non stop in the waiting room!! Would NOT recommend, see another doctor if you can!!! I am reporting her to my insurance company to have her removed from the referral list.

In 5/06 Dr. Campano did my 4th. sinus surgery and corrected what the 3 previous surgeons did not do. On Tuesday she is performing a thyroidectomy on me and I know she will do a wonderful job. She is pleasent and cheerful. She is a tiny little thing but she is a hugh size surgeon. She is also a woman not a male as indicated above.

My 5 yr old son has a very rare throat disease. I was refered to Dr.C by family doctor. She did one surgery to remove the throat obstruction. I felt certain that the obstruction came back. I could tell by his wheezing. She said everything was fine. I was not convinced. I took my son to Childrenes Hospital, he was taken in right away and operated on within 1 day. He indeed had a life threatening obstruction in his throat. My son could suffocated. I felt disapointed to say the least with Dr.C. She is an incredibly nice person, and I am sure extremely smart. I feel like she was not well versed in the rare condition my son has. She should have swallowed her pride, and just said I DONT KNOW what is wrong with your son, you need to see another doctor.

A sharp drop in West Texas Intermediate crude oil prices was not matched by either Brent Blend or Dubai Fateh, as stronger-than-expected European demand kept prices buoyed on that side of the Atlantic. Once again, a drop in OPEC crude production was more than offset by rising output outside the organization. Natural gas prices slipped on the Henry Hub, settling in the mid-$3 range, while production continued to trend upward. The U.S. Rotary Rig Count continued a steady year-long decline to around 1,740 rigs, 5% below the same period in 2012.

A Cleveland woman has taken it upon herself to petition Bradley County government to reinstate the animal control contract with the city of Cleveland.
Rachel Veazey has posted an online petition on www.change.org, which she hopes will convince county commissioners to continue the contract until a plan is in effect outside the city limits.
"It's one thing to disagree and have issues with a budget, but it's another thing to remove services without attempting all means toward compromise and before an alternative plan is put in place," she said.
Veazey is on the board of directors of Dames for Danes Great Dane Rescue out of the Knoxville and Oak Ridge area.
"That is the only [animal rescue] group I belong to," she said. "We work tirelessly to save many animals with our network all over the country — and the world for that matter."
So far, she has collected 492 signatures. Most are from within Bradley County, though many are from the Knoxville area. She has attracted some international attention from one person in France.
"Our goal is to convince the County Commission to form a working group to sit down with a working group from the City Council and rework the animal control contract immediately," she said. "While the county is discussing options and until they have an alternative plan in place, the animals and citizens of Bradley County and Cleveland cannot live with these conditions and risks."
Veazey said the county may want to separate from the city regarding animal control, but should not do so without a plan in place.
"They cannot abandon animal control while they discuss options. Starting their own services could take months or years, and neither animals nor residents have that kind of time," she said.
Since the contract between the two local governments expired June 30, she said homeless animals from the county are being dumped in the city at alarming rates.
"Local rescues are full and report the numbers of calls they are receiving has quadrupled in the last month," she said. "There is no protection or accountability for animal cruelty or diseased, starving or sick animals. Just as an example, I received a call regarding a city worker who was concerned about eight pups living in horrible conditions in the county. He has no one to call."
There is no plan in place for aggressive or fearful stray animals. She said a dog recently wandered onto the Bradley Central High School campus. It was snippy and scared. Animal Control could not come onto county property. Teachers and parents had to wrangle the dog into a car so children would not be at risk. The task took four hours and was not safe for anyone involved.
There is no plan for dog bites and the required 10-day quarantine. In the Benwood subdivision, a stray dog bit a child. The dog is still roaming around.
There is no plan for animals belonging to jailed, hospitalized, abandoned or deceased county residents.
"Three weeks ago, Bradley County sheriff's deputies arrested a man on I-75 at Exit 33. He had two dogs in his car. They had nowhere to take them and spent hours calling rescuers and vets until they finally found somewhere for the dogs to go for the night," she said. Finally, she said, there is no plan for lost animals to find or reunite with owners.
The Cleveland City Council began discussing the animal control contract at its Feb. 25 meeting, when Council members discussed a letter from County Mayor D. Gary Davis stating the county's intention to end the animal control contract on June 30. Davis said the county is exercising its option to terminate the "Agreement for Animal Control Services" first signed in 1994.
Davis wrote that he welcomed the opportunity to discuss options for a new contract which would be satisfactory to both parties.
A month later at its March 25 meeting, the City Council said it was willing to continue to provide all of Bradley County with an animal shelter, provide for animals needing protection and adoption, and continue toward certification as a no-kill city.
Banks offered a motion at the March meeting to extend the current agreement for a three-year period. The motion passed by a 7-0 vote.
The city's proposal was based on the fiscal year 2014 operating budget of $649,007 plus depreciation costs, which raised the amount to $663,174. After sales, fees and fines of $31,433 the net operating cost was estimated at $631,741. The county's share would have been 56.2 percent or $355,038.
The county proposed a contract based on the previous year's operating budget of $548,043. Under that proposal, the county share would be $298,455, or $56,583 less than the city's offer.
In the past calendar year, 1,687 shelter animals came from the city and 3,114 animals came from the county for a total of 4,801. Animal control officers responded to 7,888 calls, of which 3,867 were in the city and 4,021 in the county. Overall, 56.2 percent of the animals and calls came from the city.
City Manager Janice Casteel said if the Council offered to base the contract on audited numbers, "there might be some more (Commission) votes that would come in that direction. When you send a message that it's Option A or nothing, there could be some votes lost there."
Casteel said commissioners do not like the city proposal because it is based on the next year's numbers.
Two resolutions pertaining to the animal control contract were placed on the May 29 County Commission agenda. One option would use audited numbers on county animals served at the shelter from last year to determine the cost to the county. That option would have saved the county about $92,000.
The second option, which came from the finance committee, would have eliminated animal pickup outside the city limits. The estimated cost was more than $200,000. Under that proposal, county animals would have been accepted at the animal shelter.
In a story published Jan. 18, 2006, Cleveland Animal Control officers suggested service expansion by the county, since a majority of calls and pickups were outside the city limits.
As of fiscal year 2004, the county's share of animal control was just over $200,000, but under the contract at that time, the county could have expanded its service without participation from the city, or it could engage in a joint effort between the two governments.
At that time, animal control handled more than 8,000 animals each year.
The animal control contract between the city and county originated in 1994. It was renewed May 23, 2003 with new terms of the contract being an automatic renewal of the contract each fiscal year.
Veazey said the petition can be signed by visiting http://www.change.org/petitions/bradley-county-commission-cleveland-city-council-renew-county-animal-control-contract.

Of all the items to check off our first trimester to-do lists (find a medical provider, set up a budget, say no to alcohol), rarely do the experts advise us to slow down and savor it all. Sure, between morning sickness and swollen ankles, time seems to move at a snail's pace. But trust us, those nine months will be up in the blink of an eye. Take a moment now to stop and enjoy this truly special time. Read on for five sweet ways to ensure you remember these fleeting moments for a
From the first time you visit the doctor to confirm your pregnancy until your last prenatal appointment, your health care provider will continually remind you of foods that you can and cannot eat. Trust us, we know just how hard it can be to fight off the urge to indulge on a delectable plate of your favorite sushi or sip on a glass of wine after a hard day at the office. However, you should remain vigilant in staying away from these foods because they can cause severe damage to your
One of the most difficult parts about the first trimester of your pregnancy is dealing with morning sickness. This is very common in pregnancy, and most women experience at least some nausea. Feeling sick typically begins during the first month of pregnancy and can last well into the 16th week. However, some women experience morning sickness throughout their entire pregnancy. Although you may worry that feeling so sick can hurt your baby, it doesn't. You
There's no easy way to put this: Pregnancy will leave you feeling more exhausted than you've ever felt before (especially during your first trimester). Women typically feel the most exhausted during the first trimester and again when it returns toward the end of pregnancy. In fact, most women feel constantly tired before they start to show or even gain any weight, which is why fatigue is one of the most common early warning signs that you may be growing a baby inside your
A recent study conducted by Dutch researchers and published in the peer-reviewed BMJ found that the first three months of pregnancy is a crucial time for a baby's hearth health later in life. Researchers concluded that children who were small during the early stages of fetal development were at an increased risk of heart problems once they were older.Nearly 1,200 six-year-old children were assessed for cardiovascular risk factors as part of the study,
Your body undergoes many changes throughout pregnancy, and one of the more painful side effects is swollen and tender breasts. When your hormones start to do their work on your body, it causes an increase in blood flow and changes in breast tissue. As a result, you may experience sore, tingly, sensitive and swollen breasts. You may have noticed that breast tenderness was one of the first indications that you were pregnant. Changes to your breast, including swelling and sensitivity, can
Your pregnancy hormones may not be in full-swing yet, but it won't be long before they're taking over your body. This isn't as scary as it sounds, but you should be aware of your emotional health throughout your journey to motherhood. There are plenty of emotional ups and downs that you'll experience during pregnancy. From mood swings to bouts of depression, you may not even notice that hormones have started to wreak havoc on your body. You should know that
You're still in the early stages of pregnancy but labor and delivery are probably already weighing on your mind. Between the horror stories you've heard from friends and family and the stuff that you've read in books, you may not be sure what to think of it all, and you might even be a little scared. When you're preparing for childbirth, you can't just take some classes and show up, you've really got to get ready for this. It's going to be
The old adage "You're eating for two now" during pregnancy still finds its way into conversation, but in reality, this isn't really true. You're still in charge of consuming a healthy diet and managing your weight gain. However, you should remember that gaining weight during pregnancy is totally normal, depending on your pre-pregnancy weight.According to the Mayo Clinic, you may want to think about these guidelines for pregnancy weight gain:Women who are underweight before becoming
There's a lot that you'll go through on your journey to motherhood, so we're taking a moment to highlight some of the most important experiences along the way. First trimester Although you should quit any bad habits before you get pregnant, you'll definitely want to be sure that you're no longer drinking caffeine, drinking alcohol or consuming certain foods by week 4. One day you'll wake up and notice you're feeling pretty sick. Morning sickness usually starts between weeks 5 and 7 and can

When it happened, LeBron James going to Miami was pretty shocking. At first glance, a guy leaving the only team he's ever known for a chance to join an already established superstar's team was unusual. Of course, when you really think about it, a 25-year-old deciding he wants to play basketball with his friends while hanging out down by the beach makes a lot of sense. But for those first few minutes, it was a strange feeling.
So strange, in fact, that even Shaquille O'Neal thought it was a hoax. From Pat McManamon at FanHouse:
"I thought it was a joke," Shaquille O'Neal said when he heard of "The Decision."
"I thought he was coming back," said O'Neal, now a member of the Celtics. "When I got the e-mail that he was going to Miami, I said, 'Stop playing.'"
Outside of the people who watched "The Decision," I'd bet that was a pretty common reaction. Considering so many people were angry at LeBron's choice, it's safe to say that just as many people assumed that he was coming back to the Cavaliers. You don't get mad about something you know is going to happen.
But Shaq being surprised is kind of crazy. Of all people, you'd think Shaq would have been hip to the situation. Not only did he play with LeBron for a year, but opponents love him and he knows everybody because he's been around for so many years. Him being in the dark is strange.
That being said, when you're online as much as Shaq is, you probably get a lot of junk email. I'm sure it was easy to lump "LeBron's going to Miami" in with all the Nigerian prince schemes, boner pills and weight loss solutions. Sounds like his spam filters need some tweaking.

Notebook: Austin Long eager to play major role for offensive line
ATHENS — Austin Long grabbed a copy of Wednesday's injury report from a reporter after practice Wednesday.
"Looks about right," he said playfully. "Glad my name's not on it."
That is unusual for sure. Since he's been at Georgia, Long has had two back surgeries and at least another half-dozen twists and sprains. As a result, he has reached his junior year having played in just three games, including this past Saturday's opener.
That's a far cry from what was expected when he signed with Georgia out of Memphis. He was the No. 2 prospect in the state of Tennessee and a top-5 rated player at his position.
"I never missed a practice or a game like sixth grade through high school," said the 6-foot-5, 324-pounder. "I played the last six games of my senior year with a broken back."
Long is expected to make up for lost time this week. At the very least he figures heavily in the Bulldogs' plans and could end up starting at right tackle against Missouri. Starter John Theus and his main backup Watts Dantzler are both questionable with ankle injuries.
"It's a big motivator," Long said. "Coming here I always wanted to start. To be able to start in such a big game as this, the first SEC game against Missouri, it's an honor. I'm looking forward to it."
Long is competing with redshirt freshman Xzavier Ward for the start if Theus can't go. But indications are that Theus, the talented true freshman from Jacksonville, is going to give it a go.
Theus and Dantzler, both of whom have left ankle injuries, were working in green jerseys on their pass-protection drops under the watchful eye of a trainer off to the side of the line drills Wednesday. Both players had their ankles heavily wrapped. Theus appeared to be moving without much problem while Dantzler had more of a visible limp.
"They did OK," Richt said. "They didn't go very long, but we didn't want Theus to get anything more than scout team work."
Malcolm Mitchell's outlook improves
Georgia's injury situation improved dramatically on Wednesday. Starting cornerback Malcolm Mitchell, who missed the opener with a sprained ankle, practiced for the second straight day in a green (non-contact) jersey and appeared to be running around without limitations.
"He did pretty good," Richt said. "I'm encouraged. I'm not certain that he's full speed, but it's Wednesday. So I'm encouraged that we have a couple more days to see."
Boo feeling fine
Starting tailback Ken "Boo" Malcome practiced without limitations on Wednesday and says he's ready to go Saturday. The sophomore from Decatur had to leave the Buffalo in the second half with a sprained left hand. He said he'll wear a removable cast against Missouri but will carry the football in his dominant right hand.
Malcome missed Tuesday's practice but it wasn't because of the hand. "I think I had food poisoning," he said.
Like freshman Todd Gurley, Malcome seems unconcerned about starting.
"It's not about starting," he said. "We're all going to get in the game the same amount of time. It's about what we do with it."
Practice update
Georgia practiced for 90 minutes Wednesday in shoulder pads, shorts and helmets. Afterward, Richt was complimentary of the job the scout team did simulating Missouri.
"Right now they don't have a lot of substitute and I appreciate what they do," Richt said. "Everybody has a role to play, and Tuesday and Wednesday are really important days. They were working hard out there from the time we started special teams and that carried over into offense and defense."
Etc. . . .
Starting split end Marlon Brown said he feels fine and is feeling no ill effects of the hamstring injury that kept him out of last Saturday's game and expects to be full speed against Missouri. . . . Freshman Marshall Morgan will handle extra points and field goals Saturday but is competing with walk-on Jamie Lindley to handle kickoffs As the NFL opens its season this weekend, the Bulldogs feature 35 former players on active rosters. That's tied for second nationally with LSU and Texas. USC leads the was this year with 42 alums on rosters.

Wanderlust Colorado | From Woodstock to Wanderlust with Dr. Ron Alexander and Shiva Rea
by Tali Koziol
"It's unnatural for people to not come together" - Shiva Rea
What an amazing opportunity to hear from Dr. Ron Alxeander and Shiva Rea this morning. I had never thought of Wanderlust being like Woodstock however, as Dr. Ron put it...it is the refinement of Woodstock.
The Woodstock Festival is often credited as one of the first moments that yoga became engrained in America. However, it was yoga in a more primitive form than what we know now. Focusing more on Pranayama and the possibilities of getting "stoned" off yoga. Nowadays the yoga high is rarely discussed and almost taboo.
Shiva and Dr. Ron walked us through the evolution and how today's blend of yoga in it's many flavors and music is so natural. That we come together as tribe to learn, to be together and to delve deeper. We spend our days coming together in a discplined practice of yoga. Then our nights are spent cultivating what we've learned into the evolution of our spirit.
Not only does this opportunity allow us to braoden our tribe but we come together through travel and to meet those who are normally far away. We get outside our own practice, outside the usual way of doing things and we embrace uncertainty and exposure to something new.
It's the spirit to practice, to dance, to go inward so that we can have more meaningful experiences that keeps us coming back together. Forever wandering, forever gathering.

Date 2006-01-27 Availability unrestricted Abstract The primary goal of this study was to develop a preliminary tool to determine caregivers' needs regarding the management of a person with a traumatic brain injury (TBI), during the acute rehabilitation period. The potential impact of TBI on family dynamics, interpersonal relationships and functional independence is well documented.To facilitate achievement of the main goal this study was divided into two phases. In the first phase, caregivers' needs were determined by means of both qualitative and quantitative measurements in the form of structured and unstructured observations, the implementation of a "Needs Questionnaire", a focus group and semi-structured interviews. The results obtained during this phase indicated that caregivers have needs for support from professionals and the community, as well as needs regarding the general management of the person with a TBI and the management of the potential communication difficulties associated with TBI. Based on these needs, a preliminary tool, namely the "Needs questionnaire for caregivers of a person with a traumatic brain injury", was developed. During the second phase of the study, this tool was administered to caregivers of individuals with TBI before and after the presentation of a workshop to determine whether there is a change in caregivers' needs once they have received information. A pretest-posttest, experimental design was thus implemented during the second phase of this study. Although further research is required for the qualitative and quantitative validation of this tool, the use of this tool has implications for providing a better understanding of caregivers' needs during the acute rehabilitation period after TBI. The results of this study further emphasize that improved service delivery in the South African context is reliant on the early identification, by the professional team, of the needs that caregivers of individuals with TBI have.

It's a very strange powder. I have this in 03. And it has golden glitters in it which makes me hard to use it. So i decided to apply this in the summer, when i'm tanned. I think it will looks good on a body also
I remembered the summer I bought this product, I wanted a powder orange and sparkly, but not like a highlighter, which gives a mirror-like effect, and so I was recommended this one. I totally like it, and used to apply it on my cheek and T-zone everyday, it gives gentle light looking as its name. The things I don't like about it is the smell, which is so not enjoyable, and the sparkles look weird after some hours when my skin absorb the powder... in a word, I so much need a new one similar but better!
Clinique just discontinued this product and I am so bummed! I have been using it every day over my foundation for the last 10+ years. (AND Clinique also discontinued my Superfit foundation!) I used GLOW 02, and yes it is shimmery, but I was still able to use it everyday. On me, the shimmer isn't noticable unless I am in bright sunlight (which I don't do often!).

I didn't like this product very much, it was way too shimmery and isn't a good product for an every day use. It doesn't have any coverage, it's just sparkles. It's also way overpriced. I won't be buying again.

Nice powder, the lady at the counter advised this one, 04 neutral glow, nice amount of shimmer and i didnt look oily, coverage is light....i do like this one. Its exactly what its named, very gentle and light.
Went there to buy this in Shade 02 and the sales lady talked me into getting one with more color,03 Nutral which is shade 4. Looks like a bronzer on my skin.Nice glow for summer.
The warm golden shimmer flecks in this turned me orange. Highly unflattering.

When the MA at the Clinique counter matched this powder for me, it gave me a nice glow, which is one thing I really like about it. Unfortunately, there are more cons than pros; the powder settles into my pores and around my nose, giving a cake-y effect, and I have to reapply often because it doesn't control the oiliness of my face for the day. The sifter gives off too much powder (but that can be fixed by using the ole' tape-over-holes technique). The smell is weird but bearable. Overall, it wasn't worth the $22 I paid.

I've just rediscovered this in my stash...bought it about 5 years ago to use with liquid foundation but then I jumped on the Bare Minerals bandwagon and stopped...I don't know why, I like this so much better and it doesn't oxidize or make me break out like Bare Minerals did.
I'm currently using Gentle Light Powder over Revlon Colorstay liquid (the formula for oily/combo skin). The Colorstay covers my acne and red blotchiness and controls oil pretty well, and the Gentle Light powder gives me a nice, glowy, natural finish since the Colorstay tends to look too matte and dull. I think they both wear pretty well, the powder has some rub off, but not as much as other powders I've tried. They both stick to my greasy nose throughout the day, even if I'm using a moisturizer. I have an active job and sometimes I'm outside, sweating a lot, and this probably wears better than most foundations I've tried.
I'm using color 04 Glow 3 Neutral over the Colorstay 200 Nude. I think this is the first powder that hasn't gone orange or pink on me after a few hours. It doesn't oxidize, and it doesn't even discolor when I use it over glycolic acid/salicylic acid acne treatments. This is the biggest reason I'll stick with this product - Bare Minerals ALWAYS turned so orange on my skin!
It doesn't seem to break me out or irritate my sensitive skin, although the combination of Colorstay + powder needs a LOT of cleansing to get it all off. If I get lazy with it, it does clog my pores.
This powder is pricey, but it lasts for EV er, so it's worth it.
I don't use it with this brush, it's so tiny and tends to lay the powder on in thick blobs. I use a big fluffy Sonia Kashuk brush from Target and get nice, even, light coverage.
I'm finally at the bottom of the container and I'm definitely going to repurchase.

I like this powder- it is shimmery but i love shimmer! i have oily skin but it does a good job on my skin. It covers really well. i bought the wrong shade for my skin- several shades too dark (i'm pale) but even still it looks amazing u can layer if u want a darker look-more coverage. I would re-purchase this i really like it!

Like many companies, Diversified Communications, publisher of SeaFood Business magazine, analyzes business opportunities it would like to pursue.

New York, NY – The Nathan Cummings Foundation (NCF) –the leading foundation rooted in Jewish tradition and committed to democratic values and social justice – announced today the selection of Simon Greer as its new President and CEO. Mr. Greer will succeed Lance Lindblom, who is retiring from NCF after more than a decade at the helm of the family foundation.
The selection of Mr. Greer is a bold choice for NCF, representing the start of a generational transition in the leadership of major U.S. foundations. Mr. Greer joins NCF from the Jewish Funds for Justice where he has served as president and CEO since 2005.
"Simon is bold, collaborative, energetic, honorable, insightful, thoughtful and a shining exemplar of possibility," said James K. Cummings, the chair of the Foundation's board and the leader of the search committee that selected Mr. Greer. "As NCF transitions into its third decade of bold, innovative grant making, Simon is the natural choice as our next President and CEO. In today's challenging world, collaboration is paramount for success. Simon Greer's depth of collegial innovation is the perfect through line to lead NCF into its third decade of grant making, its fourth generation of family leadership and its evolving approaches to impact philanthropy."
As leadership changes at some of America's most prominent foundations, a generational shift is underway that includes innovative new executives who came of age during the modern technological revolution who continue to show profound respect and passion for the tradition of social justice.
Simon Greer, 42, has more than 20 years of experience as a leader in the movement for social change. As the President and CEO of Jewish Funds for Justice (JFSJ), he has overseen its growth and emergence as a strong advocate for a fair, just, and compassionate America. Under his leadership, JFSJ has undergone extraordinary growth including successful mergers with the Progressive Jewish Alliance, the Shefa Fund, and Spark: The Partnership for Jewish Service.
"It is a great honor to be able to help lead one of the most innovative foundations working to advance the values I believe in and with a track record of thought leadership and field building that is making a real difference," said Mr. Greer. "I see the role of foundations like NCF as more than just grant makers. I see them as partners in creating strategies that can significantly leverage their investments."
Mr. Greer will replace Lance Lindblom who is retiring on December 31st after more than a decade at NCF. Mr. Lindblom's retirement marks the end of an exemplary philanthropic career that has included senior leadership roles with the Ford Foundation, the Soros Foundation's Open Society Institute/Open Society Fund and the J. Roderick MacArthur Foundation.
"It has been a real privilege to lead the Nathan Cummings Foundation for more than a decade and into the 21st century," said Mr. Lindblom, the outgoing President and CEO of the Nathan Cummings Foundation. "The board, the staff and the family set the tone for the Foundation's collaborative efforts in the cause of social and economic justice. Simon represents the next step in the Foundation's growth and impact. I have no doubt that his dynamic leadership will inspire the next stage of program impact and the next generation of Cummings family involvement."
The Nathan Cummings Foundation is rooted in the Jewish tradition and committed to democratic values and social justice, including fairness, diversity, and community. It seeks to build a socially and economically just society that values and protects the ecological balance for future generations; promotes humane health care; and fosters arts and culture that enriches communities.
"How altogether fitting that Simon will use his talent to lead the foremost foundation supporting social justice causes. As head of the Nathan Cummings Foundation, he will play a critical role in continuing to deepen and strengthen our social justice movement," said Steve Fischman co-chair of Jewish Funds for Justice.
"While we are, of course, sad to lose Simon at our helm, we recognize that part of our contribution to our movement is training great leaders to assume great responsibilities."
Since its establishment, the Nathan Cummings Foundation, which has an endowment of more than $440 million, has generously supported cutting edge organizations and programs across the United States including to the New Israel Fund, the Breakthrough Institute, the Ella Baker Center, Americans for Energy Leadership, and the Clean Air Task Force.
The Foundation's approach to grant making embodies some basic themes in all of its programs: concern for the poor, disadvantaged, and underserved; respect for diversity; promotion of understanding across cultures; and empowerment of communities in need.
Mr. Greer went on to say that, "the Jewish values that have undergirded the Nathan Cummings Foundation throughout its history will continue to ground our work for justice as we make concrete change on the environment, health, economic justice and Jewish life."
Members of the NCF Board along with grantees from NCF's broader philanthropic community joined in offering words of congratulations to Mr. Greer.
Ernest Tollerson, Independent NCF trustee and NCF board chair from 2007 through 2009:
"With our selection of Simon as NCF's next president and CEO, NCF trustees have reaffirmed our foundation's deep and abiding commitment to tikkun olam, repairing the world," said Ernest Tollerson, one of the family foundation's independent trustees. "Simon has the intellect, energy and, most important, the values required to lead NCF in the second decade of the 21st century.
"Simon has devoted his life -- as a young community organizer and most recently as head of Jewish Funds for Justice -- to ideas, projects and movements dedicated to closing the enormous chasm between America's aspirations and the cold, harsh realities of everyday life for tens of millions of Americans."
Rachel Durchslag, NCF Vice Chair:
"As a fourth generation member of the Nathan Cummings Foundation, we were looking for a CEO who understands the importance of younger leadership around the table of a family foundation. Simon's demonstrated commitment to including people of all ages and backgrounds in his activism work, and his vision for helping the younger members of NCF grow into meaningful roles at the foundation, are inspiring and encouraging to us."
Jaimie Mayer Phinney, NCF Trustee, 4th Generation, Member of the CEO Search Committee:
"As both a member of the CEO Search Committee and the fourth generation of The Nathan Cummings Foundation, I find it impossible to control my excitement over Simon Greer as our next President. In our search for the next CEO, we were very cognizant of the fact that this leader would be the CEO not just for the second and third generations, but also for my generation, the fourth generation, as we continue to transition into leadership roles at the Foundation. Simon is a most impressive leader of the next generation himself, and I can think of no better person to help us foray into this next decade of foundation work, family involvement, and social justice."
Daniel Sokatch, Chief Executive Officer of the New Israel Fund:
"From my first days at the Progressive Jewish Alliance to my role today with the New Israel Fund, the Nathan Cummings Foundation has been invaluable and is synonymous with everything that is good with philanthropy. Bringing Simon onboard is a marriage made in heaven. He has been a partner and a leader in building the rising Jewish social justice movement. We would not be where we are today without Simon."
Rob Restuccia, Executive Director of Community Catalyst
"The Nathan Cummings Foundation consistently demonstrates leadership and strategic risk-taking in building a more just society. Most recently the Foundation led the development of the Affordable Care Act Implementation Fund, an innovative initiative by seven national funders to support the Affordable Care Act, the most important legislation since Medicare and Medicaid. We look forward to a continued partnership with the Foundation as we work together to improve health care access and quality for everyone."
Terry Norris, president of American for Energy Leadership:
"We're very excited to work with Mr. Greer in the years ahead. Nathan Cummings Foundation has played an essential role in fostering the next generation of progressive leaders and supporting path-breaking solutions to the world's ecological challenges. We're confident that under Mr. Greer's leadership, the foundation can take these efforts to the next level."
Carlton Turner, Executive Director for Alternate ROOTS:
"Anyone who runs a not-for-profit will tell you, it is that first money in the door for a new project, or a new idea, or an organization that is the most difficult to get and most significant. It requires risk, a leap of faith, and leadership from a foundation. The Nathan Cummings Foundation took such a leap with Alternate ROOTS; they provided the first funding for one of our core programs, the Community/Artist Partnership Program.
"The foundation's Art and Social Justice program is an incredible example of visionary leadership as they almost singlehandedly provided a platform for progressive community-based artists within the social justice world.
"We can tell you without hyperbole; Alternate ROOTS and the field of Art and Social Justice owe a huge debt to the Nathan Cummings Foundation because they understood the vision and value of this work, its potential to make a significant difference in the world, and took a risk when many in the field of philanthropy just really didn't get it. Because they paved the way, others have since joined them. We so look forward to continuing to work with them over the coming years."
