WOMMA: Move beyond commercial results and just do good
WOMMA is an organisation advancing the practice of word-of-mouth marketing across the world. It has just held its annual conference in Nashville Tenessee. Sharyn Smith, of Social Soup, attended. Here she shares some of the highlights from day one.
The keynote trilogy
It's a hard gig opening a conference and an even harder gig when you are one of three keynotes, but author of New York Times bestseller Youtility, Jay Baer, kicked off with a bang. His talk, about the difference between selling and 'helping', was an incredibly powerful performance, full of valuable nuggets for brands. He started by stating that Youtility was a marketing tool so useful, that people would actually begin paying for it. Imagine a world like that?
He backed it up with a great example from Ikea Europe.
On a particular day in one European city a lot of people change apartments – the leases are all aligned for some particular reason. Ikea decided to play a role in the day by providing free moving boxes on every street corner. They built large box pyramids across the whole city to help people with their move. They weren't selling anything – they were just providing 'utility' (or help). The results from this initiative lead to a 24.7% sales increase for that period of the year.
Baer believes that to deliver true utility to customers we must really understand their needs and this is one of the biggest challenges marketers face today. He claims that we are surrounded by data but starved of insights. I'm with him on this one. We come across this all the time with the brands we work on too and it's something I think we'd all like to see tackled in the Aussie market.
Our second keynote speaker took a different shine to engaging people (including the audience, with his thumping music and strobe lighting). Dez Dickerson is all about creating the 'fan effect'. Dickerson, who runs an entertainment business in Tennessee, believes brands should understand how great rock bands have built audiences to be successful in their marketing.
He likened a brand's relationship with that of a band and their audience: "Think about the lengths people go to for a favourite band and mirror those emotional triggers – these are the connections you want to create for your brand. Unleash human passion and your brand will always have an audience."
Lastly, we heard from Geno Church, chief inspiration officer at Brains On Fire. Church stressed the importance of injecting passion into our conversations with customers and that we shouldn't be happy with a 'like' – we need to be loved. According to Church, anyone in the marketing game today is actually in the people business and needs to understand what motivates people to build real communities.
The buzz about…well buzz
Matthew McCarthy from Unilever and Kary Laskin from Edelman took the stage to talk through the success of their AXE Apollo Space Academy (AASA) campaign.
The campaign began with an insight: astronauts have the best stories. That evolved into sending 24 people out into space. The campaign journey was a powerful one. The brand team took a huge leap and did something very bold.
They seeded the idea, unbranded first – astronauts literally just started appearing at major events and created 'shareable moments'. Buzz Aldrin then agreed to be the spokesperson – giving it real authenticity. Once they made it official, they developed a global unifying platform where you could apply and attract votes – a destination – and then managed this community ongoing with lots of rewards along the way to keep them engaged. They let the idea evolve and didn't try and control it. And then, they finally launched some great TVCs at the Superbowl. Now, they are actually sending these people into space. The top 100 applicants will be participating in space camp for testing before going to the final 24.
The campaign was run over 60 countries with some great results including over 1 million applications and a sales increase of 17% during the campaign period.
McCarthy attributed the success to doing the opposite of what most brands do: treat their campaigns like Christmas trees. They try to add lots of ornaments but very few put their eggs all in one basket and go with one big idea.
Ending with a bit of soul
Day one ended with a presentation from YouTube superstars and media company, SoulPancake.
CEO Shabnam Mogharabi relayed a few sobering statistics – YouTube receives 800 million visitors monthly, with over six billion hours watched every month. That's an hour for every human on this planet. Half of the audience is also 12 to 17-years-olds. Mogharabi's take away was to stick to content that's uplifting and inspirational.
To wrap up day one, it's been about transcending selling and creating real value for people. It's about moving beyond the commercial outcomes and having this strong vision about what you do and why you do it for the good of people. Money will follow. Stay tuned for day two.
WOMMA was held in Nashville, USA, from November 18 to 20.
Sharyn Smith is the director and founder of the Influence Group, which includes Social Soup.

More on the Abandoned Civil Rights Investigation
Inside Higher Education writes about the decision by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights to abandon its probe into college admissions discrimination against women.
That's unfortunate, for a couple of reasons. First, the practice obviously discriminates against women who are penalized for their academic success by being held to a higher standard (although I completely understand why admissions directors do it; you don't want your campus drifting above 60 percent female). Men take advantage of that sex ratio, inviting abusive relationships.
Mostly it's unfortunate because the investigation could have exposed the obvious failures by K-12 schools to educate boys and girls equally. By granting admissions preferences to young men you mask the problem and guarantee the imbalances will persist.

These maxims of equity are statements which embody rules of equity. They are only guidelines. They are not applied strictly in every case. But they help us to understand what the rules of equity are. No logical sequence and they often overlap. You can have two maxim that actually says the same thing. You can have one equity which is the exact opposite of another maxim:
1. He who seeks equity must do equity
2. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands
3. Equity is equality (Equality is equity)
4. Equity looks to the intent or substance rather than the form
5. Equity looks upon as done that which ought to be done
6. Equity imputes an intent to fulfill an obligation
7. Equity acts in personam
8. Equity will not assist a volunteer (Equity favours a purchaser for value without notice)
9. Equity will not suffer a wrong to be without a remedy (Where there is a wrong there is a remedy for it) Ibi just ibi remedium
10. Equity does not act in vain
11. Delay defeats equity
12. Equity aids the vigilant and not the indolent (Vigilantibus non dorminentibus jura subveniunt)
Equity follows the law
Where there is equal equity the law shall prevail
Where the equities are equal the first in time shall prevail
He who seeks equity must do equity
This maxim means that a person who is seeking the aid of a court of equity must be prepared to follow the court's directions, to abide whatever conditions that the court gives for the relief. And this is most commonly applied in injunctions. The court will normally impose certain conditions for granting the injunction.
Illegal loans. An old case, though overtaken by law, is still important to illustrate this maxim: Lodge v National Union Investment Company Ltd 1907] I Ch. 300.This is a case in which B had borrowed money from a money lender, M, and B mortgaged some securities to M for the loan. It turned out that M was not a registered money lender by law(the Money Lenders Act of England). B sued M for delivery of his securities (back to him). And here the court refused to grant the order unless B first repays the loan. Today a court cannot enforce an illegal action, such as this one was.
Contrast that case with the case of Kasumu v Baba Egbe ,1956] AC 539. Another case: Barclays v. Prospect Mortgages Ltd [1974] 2 All ER 672. Said Lodge did not lay a principle for all time.
Another example--consolidation- we say that mortgagee has lent money to a mortgagor has given two mortgages.--on two properties. Under each mortgage there is a loan. And they could have been issued at different times.
A third illustration: notice to redeem a mortgage before the due date. He is required to pay notice to lender or pay the interest remains.
Last example: equitable estoppel. Promisory estoppel. By words or conduct, a representation of promise.
Equity will preclude the promisor from resigning from the promises. An example from a land lord-tenant relationship. Assume the lease comes to an end to leave the promises in the states in which he found them on excluding fair wear and tear. He can only avoid doing equity if he gives notice that he is not putting up a new flat and therefore he will require painting.
There is also proprietary estoppel --one person conducts himself in such a way that : proprietary estoppel arises where one person (a) knowing that another person B is acting under some mistaken belief that B has some right to A's property passively or actively encourages B's act. So B is the person who is mistaken. A is the person who owns ..such as improving the property, under the mistaken belief that he has an interest/right to A's property. A gets to know this, of B's mistaken belief. But he does not correct B. And equity provides here that A will be estoppeled: he will be excluded from denying B's interest in the property. An example is the case of Inwards v Baker, (1965) 2 QB 29 where B has incurred some expenditure in developing some property.
He who comes to equity must come with clean hands
Take the case of a tenant and a landlord and this tenant defaults in paying rent. The lease will be forfeited. A right of re-entry by the landlord where the lease is deemed to be forfeited. That is the common law position.
Equity gave relief against forfeiture if the tenant was willing to pay the rent that was outstanding. And therefore the lease could continue. But relief could only be given if the tenant had clean hands, i.e. had not breached other terms. The case that illustrate this point is Gill v Louis [1956] 2 QB. The tenant had used the premises for a purpose that was not allowed under the lease.
This scenario was summed up in another case: He who has committed inequity shall not have equity. This phrases in the Jones v. Lenthal (1669) 1 Ch, Ca 154). There is a limit to this rule. In some cases the court has the discretion whether to apply that maxim. Limit to the extent that maxim can be applied. the limit is this: It is not all unclean hands that will deny a plaintiff his remedy. The conduct must be relevant to the relief being sought.
Duchess of Argyll v Duke of Argyll [1967]
Contrast with Loughvan v L (1934) 292 US. Justice Brandeis said equity does not demand that its suitors shall have lead blameless lives. We are not concerned with issues of morality. If the breach is a trifle, a small matter, a minor breach, then that in itself should not deny the plaintiff the remedy.
Besant v. Wood [1979) 12 Ch. D. 605.
Hooper v Bromet (1904) 90 Lt 234.
The first maxim deals with now/future, the second deals with conduct in the past.
Equity is equality (Equality is equity)
1. Presumption of tenancy in common where there is
- purchase in unequal shares. Say two people have unequal shares, there is presumption of tenancy in common
- purchase in equal shares: severance of joint tenancy. To avoid injustice, to achieve equality, there will be assumption of tenancy in common.
- partnership property. Say five partners in a law firm and one of the partners dies. His shares go to his heir: There is presumption that the partners hold a tenancy in common.
It applies to a situation where two or more people are entitled to the same property and there is no other basis for division. Those who are entitled to property should have certainty and fairness of equal division. Equity in this sense does not mean literal equality but proportionate equality.
It applies to the division of property; where there are rival claimants to property and there is no formula for sharing it out, i.e. no will. And so the law steps in and it establishes certain rules that will guide the court. And the first rule is in relation to a presumption of a tenancy in common. That is equity will make a presumption to joint tenancy as opposed to a common tenancy.
[Tenancy in common is a tenancy by two or more persons, in equal or unequal undivided shares, each person having an equal right to possess the whole property but no right of survivorship.
Joint tenancy is a tenancy with two or more co-owners who take identical interests simultaneously by the same instrument and with the same right of possession. A joint tenancy differs from a tenancy in common because each joint tenant has a right of survivorship to the other's share
(In some states in the US, this right must be clearly expressed in the conveyance – otherwise, the tenancy will be presumed to be a tenancy in common).
Right of survivorship is a joint tenant's right to succeed to the whole estate upon the death of the other joint tenant.]
Joint tenancy: In certain circumstances the children could inherit, that is, equity will make a presumption of a tenancy in common to avoid injustice.
2. Equal division. Equality is equity. In general the maxim will be applied whenever property is to be distributed between rival claimants and there is no other basis for division. Where the following are involved. For example husband and wife who operates a joint bank account; each spouse may deposit or take out money. Upon divorce, the maxim applies. They share 50-50. The authority is that equity does not want to concern itself with the activities of a husband and wife – to go into the bedroom and make deep inquiries. Hence equal division. If children are involved, that may be considered.
Another example relates to trusts. How do you divide the property? Say there are three beneficiaries, in unequal shares. Then one of the beneficiaries passes away, i.e. one of the shares fails to vest. What should accrue to the surviving beneficiaries? Redistribute equally, applying the rule "Equity is equality". Re Bowers S.T. [1942] Ch. 97 discusses this formula.
Another illustration: copyright. You have a situation where you've two people and the author bequeaths the scrip to one person and the copyright to another person. Cannot utilize the manuscript without the copyright. Each requires the other. Where that is situation, the proceeds will be divided equally between the two. The case that illustrates this is Re Dickens.
-Husband and wife. E.g. after a divorce the court has refused to dissect meticulously the joint bank account into which the husband and wife paid their income, and upon which they both drew, and instead divided the balance equally between them. See Jones v Maynard. The principle does not apply while they are still living together, for then their rights in a joint bank account are not meant to be attended by legal consequences (See Gage v King, and each will be sole beneficial owner of any property which he or she buys with money drawn from the joint account, subject to any contrary intention.
The rule of equality has been applied in relation to club property as between the members of a club which has ceased to exist(see Re Sick and Funeral Society of St. John's Sunday School); and in relation to commission as between two estate agents who have been instructed in the sale of the same property (See Hampton & Sons v Garrad Smith (Estate Agents Ltd).
It has also been applied when an author bequeaths the manuscript of a work to A and the copyright to B, and the publication of the work is made possible only by using the manuscript, prima facie the proceeds of sale of the copyright will be divided equally between A and B (See Re Dickens).
The maxim also appears to be responsible for the decision that where property has been settled in unequal shares with a provision that any share which fails to vest shall accrue to the other shares by way of addition, accruer prima facie takes place in equal shares and not in the proportions laid down by the settlor for the original shares (see Re Bower's S.T.), even though equality is attained only at the price of altering the proportions prescribed by the settlor.
When to go for proportionate equality or literal equality: It depends. That is answer to every legal question.
Equity looks to the substance or intent rather the form
This maxim makes a distinction between matters of substance and matters of form. Equity will give priority to substance (intention) as opposed to form, if there is a contradiction. This maxim is normally applied to trusts. There have been cases where the court has inferred a trust even where the word trust does not appear.
Another illustration is the remedy of rectification of contract, where equity looks to the intention, where intention matters.
This maxim lies at the root of the equitable doctrines governing mortgages, penalties and forfeitures. Equity regards the spirit and not the letter.
Courts of Equity make a distinction in all cases between that which is a matter of substance and that which is a matter of form; and if it finds that by insisting on the form, the substance will be defeated, it holds it to be inequitable to allow a person to insist on such form, and thereby defeat substance. Thus if a party to a contract for the sale of land fails to complete on the day fixed for completion, at law he is in breach if his contract and will be liable for damages e.g. for delay. Yet in equity it will usually suffice if he is ready to complete within a reasonable period thereafter, and thus the other party will not be able to avoid performance.
Another aspect of this maxim is shown by equity's impatience with mere technicalities. Equity was never much impressed by a deed, and it will refuse to decree specific performance of a voluntary agreement even if it is made by deed and so enforceable at law.
This maxim has its most frequent application in the case of contracts. Equity treats a contract to do a thing as if the thing were already done, though only in favour of persons entitled to enforce the contract specifically and not in favour of volunteers. Agreements for value are thus often treated as if they had been performed at the time when they ought to have been performed. For example a person who enters into possession of land under a specifically enforceable agreement for a lease is regarded in any court which has jurisdiction to enforce the agreement as if the lease had actually been granted to him. Walsh v. Lonsdale the agreement for lease was as good as the agreement itself.
Souza Figuerido v. Moorings Hotel – held an unregistered lease cannot create any interest, right or confer any estate which is valid against third parties. However, it operates as a contract inter parties, it is valid between the parties and can be specifically enforced. The tenant in this case was therefore liable to pay rent in arrears.
If a person is under an obligation to perform a particular act and he does some other act which is capable of being regarded as a fulfilment of this obligation, that other act will prima facie be regarded as fulfilment of the obligation.
For example suppose that a husband covenants with the trustees of his marriage settlement to pay to them the sum of £50,000, to be laid out by the trustees in the purchase of lands in the county of Devon which are to be settled upon the trusts of the settlement. In fact, the husband never pays the money to the trustees, but after the marriage purchases lands in Devon for £50,000, and has them conveyed to himself in fee simple; and he then dies without bringing the lands into settlement. The purchased lands are in equity presumed to have been purchased by the husband in pursuance of his covenant, and as being in fact his performance of that covenant, so that they become subject to the trusts of his marriage settlement. It is on this maxim that the doctrines of performance and satisfaction are founded.
This maxim which is descriptive of the procedure in equity, is of less significance now than formally.
This is a maxim which is descriptive of procedure in equity, is the foundation of all equitable jurisdiction. Courts of law enforced their judgments in rem, e.g. by writs of 'fieri facias or elegit' but the originally equitable decrees were enforced by Chancery acting against the person of the defendant (ie by imprisonment) and not in rem against the property involved in the dispute. Later equity invented the alternative method of sequestrating the defendant's property until he obeyed the decree. These methods can still be used where necessary, but other and more convenient methods are often available today. So
a. The court can often make a vesting order, by virtue of which property will become transferred to some other person (eg where the court appoints a trustee and it is necessary that the trust property should be vested in him.
b. Where the court orders a person to execute a document (eg where specific performance is decreed against a vendor or land), the court can appoint some person to execute it on his behalf. Where appropriate, common law writs of execution can be used to enforce equitable decrees. Although the maxim has lost much of its importance, it is responsible for the general rule that English court has jurisdiction in equitable matters, even though the property in dispute may be situated abroad, if the defendant is present in this country = PENN V. BALTIMORE (the Defendant was ordered to perform a contract relating to land in America). But there must be some equitable right arising out of contract, trust or fraud.
Equity favours a purchaser for value without notice. A volunteer is a person who has not paid consideration. Exception to the application of this maxim is in Trust.
Ibis jus ibi remedium" if there is a wrong, there is a remedy for it.
He who seeks solace in the arms of equity will not go away broken hearted.
Each party has his or her share at the table of equity.
No wrong should be allowed to go unredressed if it is capable of being redressed by equity.
Not all moral wrongs should be redressed by equity.
The maxim must be taken as referring to rights which are suitable for judicial enforcement, but were not enforced at common law owing to some technical defect. Its meaning can be best explained by taking a few examples of the cases in which the court has acted upon it.
Enforcement of trusts: It was on this maxim that the court of Chancery based its interference to enforce uses and trusts. Where A conveyed land to B to hold to the use of, or on trust for C, and B claimed to keep the benefit of the land for himself, C had no remedy at law. Yet such an abuse of confidence was most distinctly a wrong, and a wrong capable of easy redress in a court of justice.
The auxiliary jurisdiction: Again, to this maxim may be traced the origin of the auxiliary jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery, by virtue of which suitors at law were aided in the enforcement of their legal rights. Without such aid these rights would often have been "wrongs without remedies". For instance, it was often necessary for a claimant in a common law action to obtain disclosure of facts resting in the knowledge of the defendant, or of deeds, writings or other things in his possession or power. The common law courts, however, had no power to order such disclosure, and recourse was therefore had to the Court of Chancery, which assumed jurisdiction to order the defendant to make disclosure on his oath.
Formerly a Lessor was not entitled to disclosure of documents in an action brought to forfeit the lease, as the court leans against penalties and forfeitures. This restriction of the normal rule has now been abrogated.
The court of equity is shy and does not want to be embarrassed by granting remedies that cannot be enforced or issuing orders that cannot be obeyed by the Plaintiff.
11. DELAY DEFEATS EQUITY OR EQUITY AIDS THE VIGILANT AND NOT THE INDOLENT: Vigilantabus, non dormientibus, jura subveniunt
A court of equity has always refused its aid to stale demands, where a party has slept on his right and acquiesced for a great length of time. Nothing can call forth this court into activity, but conscience, good faith, and reasonable diligence; where these are wanting, the Court is passive, and does nothing. Delay which is sufficient to prevent a party from obtaining an equitable remedy is technically called "laches".
This maxim, however, has no application to cases to which the Statutes of Limitation apply either expressly or, perhaps, by analogy. There are thus three cases to consider—
(a) equitable claims to which the statute applies expressly;
(b) equitable claims to which the statute is applied by analogy; and
(c) equitable claims to which no statute applies and which are therefore covered by the ordinary rules of laches.
(a) Express Application of the statute. Originally the statute applied only to courts of common law. but then several statutory provisions were enacted which were in terms applicable to equitable claims. Thus the Real Property equity must be brought within the same time as if it were a legal claim, and the Trustee Act 1888 limited the time within which an action must be replaced by the Limitation Act. The principal equitable claims so regulated are as follows:
(i) Claim by cestuis que trust to recover trust property or in respect of any breach of trust;
(ii) Claims to the personal estate of a deceased person;
(iii) Claims to redeem mortgaged land.
(iv) Claim to foreclose mortgages of real or personal property.
(b) Application of the statute by analogy: where a claim is not expressly covered by any statutory period but is closely analogous to a claim which is expressly covered, equity will act by analogy and apply the same period. This is so not only where equity, exercising a concurrent jurisdiction, gives the same relief as was available in a court of law and to which there is a limitation period prescribed; it applies also where equity affords wider relief than available to a claim for damages for fraud or fraudulent breach of contract is applicable by analogy to a claim to account as constructive trustee.
(c) Claims outside statute. The principles which equity applies to cases not covered by a statutory period have been stated thus:
"Now the doctrine of laches in courts of equity is not an arbitrary or a technical doctrine. Where it would be practically unjust to give a remedy, either because the party has by his conduct, done that which might fairly be regarded as equivalent to a waiver of it, or where by his conduct and neglect he has, though perhaps not waiving that remedy, yet put the other party in a situation in which it would not be reasonable to place him if the remedy were afterwards to be asserted, in either of these cases lapse of time and delay are most material."
12. Equity follows the law;
The Court of Chancery never claimed to override the courts of common law. "Where a rule, either of the common or the statute law, is direct, and governs the case with all its circumstances, or the particular point, a court of equity is as much bound by it as a court of law and can as little justify a departure from it. It is only when there is some important circumstance disregarded by the common law rules that equity interferes. "equity follows the law, but not slavishly nor always."
13.Where there is equal equity the law shall prevail;
This maxim forms the basis of the rules on priority and can be contrasted with the maxim where the equities are equal the first in time shall prevail.
14.Where the equities are equal, the first in time shall prevail;

Grant Gardner- Tess Durbeyfield, Guilty or not Guilty In the book Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy, Tess Durbeyfield suffers a great deal of tribulation in her tragic life. Although her life is filled with misfortune, she is not responsible for these tragic events. One of the first tragedies in Tess' life, that seems to lead to all the others, is when she falls asleep as she is taking a load of bees to the market and accidentally kills the horse. This is not Tess' fault. In the first place, it wasn't her responsibility to take to bees to the market. It was the responsibility of her drunken father.
If anyone is to blame for being irresponsible, it is Tess' parents. Tess is always doing work her parents should be doing because her parents are too lazy and Tess feels responsible for supporting the family. The night before Tess leaves, her parents go off to a bar while Tess is left at home to take care of the family and the chores. Another tragedy in the life of Tess Durbeyfield is her pregnancy by Alec. At first, one may think it is all her fault for getting pregnant, but if one takes a closer look at the situation Tess was really in, it is quite obvious that she was, once again, a victim of misfortune.
Tess' mother never educates her about some of the essential facts of life and Tess does not know what most men are like. In addition, Tess's elfish mother wants her to marry Alec so that Durbeyfield family can be financially well off. She isn't thinking about the best interests of Tess. The death of Tess' baby is a huge tragedy.
There is no way Tess is at fault for this tragedy. She does everything that any loving mother would do for her baby and more. It is very tragic when Angel decides he doesn't want to be with Tess any more. Angel, not Tess, is to blame for this catastrophe in the life of Tess. Tess forgives Angel for deliberately having an affair. However, Angel is unable to completely forgive Tess for being taken advantage of by Alec.
If Angel, who is the greater sinner of the two, really loves Tess, he would not leave her. Tess can not be blamed for going back to Alec. It is the logical decision to make because she, basically, has no choice and has not heard from Angel for a very long time. When Tess kills Alec, it obviously is not by accident.
Tess seems like the only person to blame for the murder because she is the one who stabs Alec. It is true that some blame should be placed on Tess for the murder, but this was not completely her fault. She is not a cold-blooded killer. She has lived a miserable life full of sorrow and tragedy.
When she learns that Alec is not her cousin and that he was wrong for making Tess believe that Angel would never come, she takes out all her anger and frustration in an impulsive crime of passion. Tess is wrong for doing this, but she does not deserve to be hanged. In conclusion, Tess Durbeyfield is indeed a pure woman who just happens to be extremely unlucky either by coincidence or by fate.

The vet techs are extremely professional and I truly get the sense that they remember my pets' different histories and see my pets as part of their extended family. Dr. Gooch is extremely knowledgeable and friendly and explains complex ideas and terminology in a very understandable way, using just the right amount of humor to lighten the mood, when appropriate. Calls are always returned in a timely manner. Visits are scheduled extremely promptly, especially when an unexpected health care need arises. I cannot say enough good things about my experiences taking our pet cats to Animal Health Center.
Having gotten to know Dr. Gooch and his staff over the past several years as such nice people, now I'd have to say that I would probably go visit them even if we didn't have pets!

This book was intended only as a memory aid for use after the pilot has made himself familiar with the particular type of aircraft by careful study of the A.T.A Handling notes or Air Ministry handling notes on the type. But if you had to fly a type of plane you had never seen before, Ferry Pilots Notes would get you up and down safely.

Brief Glory: The story of the Air Transport Auxiliary
by E.C. Cheesman
Re-printed exclusively by the Maidenhead Heritage Trust. First published in 1946 and reprinted in 2012.
"The men and women of Air Transport Auxiliary were civilians in uniform who played a soldier's part in the Battle of Britain and who performed, throughout the war, a task of supreme importance to the R.A.F.
They brought the airplanes to the squadrons. In foul weather and fair, by night and day, they kept the ferry moving." The Right Hon. The Lord Beaverbrook.

A Spitfire Girl – one of the world's greatest female ATA (Air Transport Auxiliary) Ferry Pilots tells her story.

From Tiger Moths to Hurricanes and Spitfires, from Wellington Bombers to post-war jets, Mary's desire to take to the skies has never faltered.

Spitfire Women of World War II
by Giles Whittle
This is the incredible true story of a wartime sisterhood of women pilots: a group of courageous pioneers who took exceptional risks to fly Spitfires, Hurricanes and Lancasters to the frontline airfields of World War II.
The women pilots of Air Transport Auxiliary came from all countries and backgrounds. Although not allowed into combat, they demonstrated astonishing bravery in their supporting role: flying unarmed, without radios or instruments, and at the mercy of the weather and enemy aircraft, they delivered battle-ready planes to their male counterparts, the fighter pilots of the RAF. The story of these remarkable women pilots – among them Amy Johnson and Lettice Curtis –is a riveting account of women in wartime, and a fitting tribute to their courage, skill and sacrifice.

Spitfire Girl
by Jackie Moggridge
"We had returned to a different world. We had taken off in peace at nine-thirty and landed in war at noon."
Jackie Moggridge was just nineteen when World War Two broke out. Determined to do her bit, she joined the Air Transport Auxiliary. Ferrying aircraft from factory to frontline was dangerous work, but there was also fun, friendship and even love in the air. At last the world was opening up to women… or at least it seemed to be.
From her first flight at fifteen to smuggling Spitfires into Burma, Jackie describes the trials and tribulations, successes and frustrations of her life in the sky.
About the author Jackie Moggridge joined the ATA during WW2, receiving a King's Commendation for Services in the Air. After the war she continued to fly professionally whilst raising her two daughters. She died in 2004; her ashes were scattered from a Spitfire.

The Female Few
by Jacky Hyams
Through the darkest days of the Second World War, an elite group of courageous civilian women risked their lives as aerial courier pilots, flying Lancaster bombers, Spitfires and many other powerful war machines in thousands of perilous missions. The dangers these women faced were many: they flew unarmed, without radio and in some cases, without instruments, in conditions where even unexpected cloud could mean disaster. In The Female Few, five of these astonishingly brave women tell their awe-inspiring tales of incredible risk, tenacity and sacrifice. Their spirit and fearlessness in the face of death still resonates down the years, and their accounts reveal a forgotten chapter in the history of the Second World War.

Maidenhead Through Time
by Elias Kupfermann & Carol Dixon-Smith
Maidenhead lies on the west bank of the River Thames and form part of the county of Berkshire. One of the largest settlements in the area, Maidenhead has a rich and fascinating history. Recorded as Ellington in the Domesday Book, the town's present name refers to the 'new warf' or 'Maiden Hythe', on the riverside. Upon the coming of the Great Western Railway, the town underwent significant expansion. Today, Maidenhead is a thriving town with a population of 78,000 people. The photographs in this book traces some of the many ways in which Maidenhead has changed and developed over the last century.

Villages Around Maidenhead
by Luke Over
ISBN: 978 0 7524 5289 0. Complied with the help of The Maidenhead Heritage Centre.
Today, most of our large towns and cities are surrounded by a dense cluster of satellite settlements. These outlying villages are hardly self-reliant, and depend on the major settlements for employment, services and administration, yet most will pre-date the main town. The Maidenhead area is no exception to these patterns of urban development. The town itself came into being no earlier than the thirteenth century, yet many of the surrounding villages and manors were well-established by the Domesday Survey of 1086.

From: Gregory R. Pachmayr
Clerk of the Supreme Court, Court of Appeals and Tax Court
December 21,2017
Indiana's statewide e-filing project is successfully moving forward, with more than half the state already requiring attorneys to electronically file and serve.
One important component of electronic service is the Public Service List, which is a directory where filers can find your contact information and select you for service in a case. Currently, your information is added to the List by you or your firm administrator through your chosen e-filing software.
On January 1, 2018, we're changing how the Public Service List is managed:
- All existing contacts on the Public Service List will be removed to prepare the List for synchronization with the Roll of Attorneys
- Service contacts attached to cases will not be altered in any other way so as not to affect service in those cases, even if they were initially added from the Public Service List
- All filing attorneys in the e-filing system will be automatically added to the Public Service List with their contact information from the Roll of Attorneys so they can be e-served
- Non-attorney service contacts will no longer appear on the List; only attorneys who are set up as filing attorneys in the e-filing system will appear on the List
- If you are a non-attorney service contact, you will add your e-service contact information directly into your cases through your e-filing software
- If you are a firm administrator, you will no longer manage Public Service List contacts through your e-filing software; attorney contact information is managed in the Indiana Courts Portal
For help and additional information about these changes and instructions on adding yourself as a service contact through your e-filing software, see How the Public Service List Works, the E-filing User Guide and E-service Tutorials.

Without a foyer in your apartment or small home, visitors and household members sometimes find themselves face-to-face when they would prefer a buffer zone between them. The addition of a foyer provides a degree of privacy as well as a transition into your main living space. With inexpensive and movable items, you can create a foyer that subtracts little square footage and functions as if it you planned it for the space from the beginning.
Dividing the Space
Form a division next to the entry door by creating the illusion of a wall. A tall folding screen or étagère on the floor immediately designates a foyer space. Screens may have painted scenery or embellishments of mirror tiles or other materials. For a softer or lighter divider, hang simple pocket-rod draperies from a rod mounted to the ceiling. Choose draperies in a fabric weight and thickness for the privacy you desire, or sew your own. Home improvement and department stores have experts in window treatments who can help you select the right rod and hardware for your decor. Decorative art panels made for hanging on the wall also make attractive room dividers. They often have iron frames with openwork wooden bead, rattan or other natural materials in their design. Hang one tall panel from chains attached to ceiling-mounted hooks, or vertically attach two smaller panels to each other and hang. Hardware stores sell chains that can be cut to the length you need.
Anchor Pieces
Even if the floor in front of your entry door if different from the rest of the floor, anchor the foyer space with a small area rug. A rug approximately 4-by-6 feet works well may be all you need. Select a rug constructed from synthetic fibers if you wish to save money. You will find a large variety of designs and colors to suit any decor. Further define the space with that staple of the foyer -- the console. A console can be a table or a chest as long as it is 30 to 36 inches high. Sometimes a narrow end table or side table make a good console table, particularly in a tight space. Place the console along a side wall. If there is no wall, place it against the faux wall you created with a screen or draperies, or position it under a hanging art panel.
Like any foyer, yours should function for the convenience of your household. If this is your home's main entrance and exit, place a tall ceramic or metal container on the floor to hold umbrellas. A standing coatrack will be appreciated by family and guests alike, especially if there is no closet in the area. If there is a sold wall, hang an attractively framed mirror for last-minute checks of hair and makeup. Include a decorative box or tray to hold mail or car keys.
Your small, new foyer should make a good first impression on visitors and work cohesively with the rest of the space. But rather than exhibit a formality that is not present elsewhere, have the foyer reflect your or your family's taste and personality. If you love color, paint the console, door or an adjoining wall in a bright hue. Choose a pair of console lamps or a floor lamp in keeping with your idea of style. If your divider is an étagère, fill it with art or accessories that showcase your family's talents or interests.

At the Embedded Linux Conference held in San Jose, California last month it was announced that Xilinx together with Cirrus Logic and Treasure Data have signed up as members of the Linux Foundation. The conference this year (now in its eleventh year) was themed on 'Drones, Things and Automotive'.
Zach Pfeffer, Director of Embedded Software Development at Xilinx explained that it was an important step for Xilinx because "Linux is a key embedded OS for our customers and aligns well with our Zynq®-7000 All Programmable SoC and Zynq UltraScale+™ MPSoC product application areas spanning wired and wireless networking, data center, automotive, and industrial, membership in the Linux Foundation allows Xilinx to better represent the needs of our embedded Linux customers."
"The use of Linux in embedded products has skyrocketed in recent years, with Linux now being used in avionics, industrial systems, automotive and consumer electronic devices of all kinds," said Amanda McPherson, Chief Marketing Officer at The Linux Foundation. "From new members to growing attendance at The Embedded Linux Conference, we're excited to expand the number of members and resources committed to growing the embedded Linux market."
The Linux Foundation is a not-for-profit consortium dedicated to fostering the growth of Linux and collaborative software development. Founded in 2000, the organization sponsors the work of Linux creator Linus Torvalds and promotes, protects and advances the Linux operating system and collaborative software development by marshalling the resources of its members and the open source community.

Hi, I received a package with some seeds, and it was marked with tape saying that it had been opened by customs. Will be police come knocking now? Should I take any precautions? I am not growing, but there may be some weed laying around.

Re: Cannabis seeds in mail
It's possible, but very unlikely. I've scoured some of the Finnish threads about the mail opened by customs, but none of them refer to police visiting the order address. Few posts I found about police coming over after a longer period of time, but I don't know if it's cause of the seed order. If the seed quantity is high and you have any past criminal record I would keep it nice and tidy for a few months. Nowadays we have quite a few growshops located in Finland, which are the most secure way to obtain your seed collection.

Re: Cannabis seeds in mail
In the package was there anything else that might got their attention? They have x-ray and shit, and your name on top of it, so no need to open packages with just seeds.

Re: Cannabis seeds in mail
I'm not sure what could have make them open the package, because they had gone through all the packing. One of the boxes was in wood, so maybe something like that made them curious.
It was about 20 seeds and I have no prior convictions. So that means I can continue my life as normal?

Also depends where are you living. If in Helsinki or pääkaupunki seutu all good I think but if you live in smaller place I'd keep all clean for three months. And also if you feel unsure wait for three months and see if anything happens.

About us
The Start
Rool Golf was founded by two cousins with a fanatical love for the game of golf. The Salt Lake City, UT brand has focused on delivering fresh and unique apparel options to a growing base of younger players with alternative style preferences and tastes. Competing with massive brands with endless budgets hasn't dissuaded the young company from following its passion for designing only the best on and off the course wear and accessories. Now carried in over 40+ Pro Shops across North America and having shipped to 14 countries and counting the company is gaining a large base of loyal customers and brand advocates.
The Name
The brand needed to have a short and memorable name that it could "own". Rool is a play on the word "Rule" (note the small crown that is incorporated in the logo mark). ROOL your game, ROOL the course… you get the idea.
The Experience
A major point of focus for Rool Golf is the experience that each and every customer has with the brand. An immense measure of care is given to every aspect of the business – from the meticulous design of the apparel and website, to the the way that orders are carefully packaged and shipped. The founders continue to interact on a daily basis with customers and fans via the site's live chat function, and don't be surprised if you receive a handwritten note from one of them expressing appreciation for your business.

As the national news media works overtime to vilify the Republicans who refuse to abandon their objectives in the interests of reopening the government and allowing business as usual, the lesson seems unmistakable: anyone who stands by his or her principles is obstructionist, extremist and hopelessly out of touch with the majority of Americans and in sharp contrast to the reasonable, patriotic members of Congress ready to put partisan principles aside for the common good.
As the shutdown drama drags on, major news organizations are trumpeting an NBC News/Esquire poll indicating that most Americans are "centrist." Of course, a survey by Newsweek from 2011 likewise shows that 64 percent didn't understand why the Cold War occurred, and 44 percent apparently couldn't explain what the Bill of Rights is. Even so, the message is clear: virtue lives in the center. But political change does not.
"The mainstream narrative reinforces a presumption that "business as usual" is a sane and rational course."Historically, movements of social change have begun among the disaffected, and among the relatively small numbers of people angry enough to act on their concerns. The moment an individual becomes impassioned enough about an issue to take to the picket line, or engage in civil disobedience, that individual has left the moderate, sensible, safe world of centrist politics. If they succeed, social change movements may win adherents among the "centrist" majority, who come to understand the importance of an issue that once didn't matter to them at all, but the centrists do not typically lead the charge.
Today, judging by their actions, most Americans, who we now know are "centrist," and the people they send to Washington apparently have no significant concerns about the Obama's administration assault on civil liberties, or its cruel and callous policy on deportations, or its support for pillaging America's public lands and coastal areas to fuel the addiction to fossil fuels. There seems to be little concern about the young lives sacrificed to urban violence and poverty, or the relentless poverty and dysfunction that marks so many American Indian reservations.
But imagine if progressives took a page from the Tea Party playbook, working to infiltrate both parties, pushing both parties to address these and other issues. Imagine if progressive concerns were front and center of a shutdown showdown over budget priorities and debt levels. Imagine if progressives demanded defunding of programs to sell-off America's natural resources, or round-up "illegal immigrants," or demanded an end to drone strikes.
Such a left/progressive strategy is difficult to imagine for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the seemingly boundless faith that people with progressive leanings seem to be willing to place in the centrist Democratic Party, as if, candidates fully yoked to the money machine that drives electoral politics will magically morph into stalwart champions of progressive causes.
Never Miss a Beat.

The rightward tilt of the Republican Party in the last three decades, however, did not occur by chance. It occurred because people acted on their views that abortion, gay rights and the demise of school prayer were dangerous social developments, and insisted the Republican Party respond to those concerns.
Doubtless, just as the major news media are braying about the Tea Party extremists in Congress, they would likewise characterize hypothetical leftist members of Congress as extremists and radicals. But isn't this the natural course of political change? Aren't those who demand it always seen as extremists and radicals?
True to form, major media outlets are calling the shutdown a disastrous political strategy for Republicans and offering polls showing that Americans are "blaming" Republicans. But this narrative, too, is a dangerous one for progressives.
For one, it overlooks what was gained from the shutdown in terms of advancing Tea Party goals. Can anyone doubt that anyone who knew next to nothing of the nation's yawning deficits and extraordinary debt is now much more sensitized to these issues, and just might become engaged around them?
Secondly, the mainstream narrative reinforces a presumption that "business as usual" is a sane and rational course. For two decades, interest on the debt has been near or exceeded $200 billion annually. By way of comparison, Obama requested approximately $70 billion to fund the Department of Education in FY 14, and $526.6 billion for the Defense Department. Obviously, $200 billion in interest, paid to people well off enough to loan money to the federal government, is unavailable for more useful purposes, such as improving conditions on Indian reservations. For FY 14, the Obama Administration requested $2.6 billion for the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
In short, the budgetary issues raised by the Tea Party faction in Congress have significant implications for progressive causes as does the mainstream narrative about their tactics. We should be cautious in supporting the view that their tactics are extremist, irrational or useless.

This was supposed to publish last night (Saturday) WHOOPS! So here you go!!
I am STILL, trying to put a dent in my baking supplies, and I honestly can't believe the amount of food that I have been able to make without buying anything, but butter. I don't really have tons and tons of sticks of butter laying around, so that was the only thing on the shopping list lately.
This morning, I ended up taking on the project of making some Granola Bars. Surprise, surprise, I made them chocolate chip and dried cranberry granola bars. I don't know what it is with this combo, but I LOVE it. I've always been a bit nervous about making these, simply because I thought there was a lot to it…or that it was complicated. But after making them, they couldnt' have been easier. I would absolutely say they are easier than making rice crispy treats (I have some trouble with making those).
|1/3 Cup Honey
|1 Stick Butter
|1/4 Cup Dark Brown Sugar
|1/4 Cup Light Brown Sugar
|2 1/2 Cups Rolled Oats
|1/4 Cup Sliced Almonds
|1/4 Cup Chopped Walnuts
|1/3 Cup Dried Cranberries
|1/3 Cup Chocolate Chips
1. In a medium sized sauce pan, on low heat, melt the butter, sugars and honey together. Do not boil the mixture.
2. Stir in the oats, cranberries, almonds, and walnuts. Then take the pan off the heat, and stir in the chocolate chips.
3. Line a smaller baking dish with parchment paper and press the granola mix into the pan. I used a 9 by 11 pan and ended up scrunching it to the end because it would have resulted in really thin bars that wouldn't stay together well.
4. Lastly, bake the bars for 25 minutes at 350 degrees. You want the top to be golden brown.
Let it COMPLETELY cool before taking it out of the pan and cutting it. While it is hot the bars will not stick together. You can pull the whole parchment paper out and lay it on the counter to slice easily. Use a sharp knife to cut the bars.
I am actually going to bring these bars with me to Naples. Brent and I are celebrating Christmas with his family and I thought it would be fun to bring some treats. I was trying to come up with a good way to bring them without the bars falling apart or sticking to each other and decided to wrap them individually in parchment paper. This way you can actually just throw them in a bag while you are on the run and don't have to worry about a mess! GENIUS!
I know this isn't really an original idea, but afterwards, I kind of felt really smart. Haha, no puzzle is to difficult for THIS one to solve! Just don't give me a rubix cube and completely kill my smarty pants ego.
Have you ever come up with a solution that just made you feel really, really smart??

Kai Hoffman: Thank You, Ella!
Without Ella Fitzgerald's Great American Songbook recordings, Kai Hoffman could well have stayed a professional French horn player, instead of chasing the dream of singing live on stage. Kai would have kept practicing her Mozart and never even begun to learn the beautiful 'Someone to Watch Over Me,' or the sassy 'Too Darn Hot.' Well, those iconic recordings changed the course of Kai's life… and she can think of nothing better than to spend her own birthday celebrating those wonderful songs, and one of the world's greatest-ever jazz singers!
Thank You, Ella! is Kai's vocal tribute to the First Lady of Song, and to her immense catalogue of recordings - especially during the years with Verve, when Ella Fitzgerald was not only recording some of the greatest 'pop' albums ever made, but touring for 40-45 weeks per year. In her own small way, Kai would like to pay homage to the great woman who inspired her, from childhood, to sing with energy, excitement, and joyful abandon. Happy birthday!
Kai Hoffman is fast gaining a reputation as a mesmerising live performer on the international stage, with shows at the Metropolitan Room in New York City, the Blue Note Milano and the European Jazz Expo, as well as performances in countries as varied as Bangladesh, the Netherlands and Russia.

We went to see Pitch Perfect 2 last night for Hayden's birthday. It was so good! All 3 of us laughed and the music and singing was awesome! Part of the message behind the movie was finding their voice again for their upcoming competition and it got me thinking about what I would post for my Saturday Morning Motivation. I searched for just a bit and found it…the perfect Saturday Morning Motivation.
So lace up, get your gear on, and head out that door. You might have a long run, a race, a bike ride, a swim, a workout planned for the gym. Whatever your "thing" is, I hope that this motivates you to go for it and go at it. Find your voice. Find what makes you you. Go look for it, find it, embrace it and rock it!
Thanks again to Our Sole Intent!
Go be awesome! 🙂

chloroquine tablets online Silence was particularly not golden last Tuesday at P.S. 53 in Manhattan when sophomore Irene Cordova was absent. Known by peers and teachers as that one student who always participates in class, Cordova left a gaping hole in discussions when she stayed home with a stomach virus.
"It wasn't that noticeable in Geometry because we just take notes and nod like we understand what's happening," sophomore Kennedy Lowell explained. "But during Honors English? Things fell apart."
Although students refused to corroborate this information, English teacher Fern Avery tasked students with reading two chapters from discover here Lord of the Flies the night before. She began class as she always did: asking for volunteers to discuss main ideas from the reading.
The last words spoken in Room 106 that period were "Who can describe why Piggy is the story's unsung hero despite his peers' general dismissal?"
After 15 seconds of waiting, Avery realized something was up. Students squirmed and cast meaningful glances toward Cordova's empty desk.
"It's hard to explain, but time became this weird blob," Cordova's friend Zoe Sitko reported. "I considered texting Irene for the answer, but Ms. Avery was, like, staring us down."
Avery affirmed that staring at students usually makes them uncomfortable enough to participate, but even she grew weary of the silence that had enveloped the class. "After five minutes, I wasn't staring anymore — I was zoning out completely," Avery admitted.
Forty-seven minutes later, the school bell's buy Pregabalin in uk ding…ding…ding broke the trancelike silence in 106. Students stumbled out of the room blearily.
Avery returned to her desk, slumped into her chair, and sipped the lukewarm dregs of her coffee while contemplating if that had all just happened or if it was just a disappointing lucid dream.
