Author Irshad Manji teaches Class of 2023 about the psychology of arguments
April 15, 2021
In human psychology, there is an ironclad law: if you wish to be heard, you must first be willing to hear," said Irshad Manji, author of Don't Label Me: How to Do Diversity Without Inflaming the Culture Wars in a discussion with the sophomore class last Thursday. Manji hoped the talk informed students on how to turn destructive disagreements into constructive conflicts.
Manji founded the Moral Courage Project (MCP) in 2008, an organization that teaches people a "no- shaming approach to diversity, equity, and inclusion," she said. Manji developed the Moral Courage Method as a way to "transform disagreement into engagement and, ultimately, into shared action," she said.
Community Council (CC) member Ariela Shuchman (10) met Manji through her father, Daniel Shuchman P'21 P'23, she said. Daniel co-founded the organization Let Grow to promote children's independence and resilience through programs such as those the MCP offers.
Ariela thought Manji could equip students with skills for navigating disagreements from political arguments in history class and on social media to conflicts between friends and family, she said. "A lot of speakers focus on specific political issues, so we wanted to invite her to give us some tools for those discussions," she said. "Otherwise, it can get really nasty in class and on platforms like Snapchat."
Manji began her presentation by discussing the neuroscience behind how people react to disagreements. She described the fight-or-flight response, where the sympathetic nervous system prepares the body to flee from or attack perceived threats. The brain has a hard time distinguishing between mortal danger and mere discomfort, so it reacts the same way to both, making people defensive and aggressive when someone disagrees with them, she said.
"Social media is deliberately designed to exacerbate this impulse by manipulating people to seek out and validate those who already think alike," she said. "In that way, it feeds our instinct to manufacture an Us- Against-Them mindset."
Communicating through that bubble requires people to 'outsmart' their brains, Manji said. She gave five steps for doing so: breathe deeply, find common
ground, ask questions about how the other person came to their position, listen, and ask more questions. After these five steps, people can feel free to state their own views, she said.
Breathing calms the sympathetic nervous system and tells the brain there is no immediate threat, and finding common ground builds trust, she said. One way to find common ground is to establish that people are more than their position on one issue, so neither side should judge the other's entire character based on one disagreement, she said.
Dean of Class of 2023 Chidi Asoluka said that finding common ground helps people see the other person's humanity, which can feel impossible when they say and do things that run counter to one's beliefs.
For example, people with opposite political views also share concerns about where the country will be in the next few years, Asoluka said. "You can find common ground by saying 'we're both nervous about the future of this community. We just have different ways of trying to figure out how to fix it,'" he said.
Manji's next steps are to ask about the other person's experiences that influenced their opinion, listen to and understand their response, not rebut their point, ask more questions, and finally express one's own views, she said.
It can be challenging to bypass the urge to win an argument, Jerry Lascher (10) said. When he is speaking to someone he disagrees with, Lascher often asks questions to trip them up or prove that he is right, he said. "Instead, it's important to ask a question and hear their opinion, even if you don't agree," he said.
Megumi Iwai-Louie (10) said she liked how Manji revealed that the Latin roots of "respect" mean "to look again." "To respect someone isn't to agree with them," Manji said. "It's to engage with them, because the first impression you have of someone is usually cursory, so it should not be the only impression you have."
Iwai-Louie previously thought respect meant conceding to the other person in a disagreement. As a result, she would often stay silent because she believed it was disrespectful to argue, she said. "Manji taught me that you can and should share what you feel and believe, as long as you also see the other person and where they're coming from," Iwai-Louie said.
"If you adopt the Moral Courage Method and turn it into a habit, you've got a good chance of being heard even by those who disagree with you," Manji said.

Up and coming artist Sam Mudd has made their lockdown debut with the polyphonically electric Pop hit "Where Are You (All Up)" and stamped down their authentically expressive style.
The Lo-Fi track kicks off with a melodic guitar intro before sliding into an energetic EDM Pop beat layered with Sam Mudd's effect-laden vocals which find perfect synergy with the entrancing rhythms.
As much as we appreciated the artist's quintessentially endearing style, the reverb and use of autotune were slightly excessive. But that's not to say there isn't plenty of potential to be found in Where Are You. Any artist willing to be so bold with their debut track is more than worth having on your radar.
You can check out Sam Mudd's debut single Where Are You? by heading over to Spotify now.

Who we are
The Bulkley Valley Social Planning Society (BVSPS) is a group of citizens, social service agencies and community care providers that works to address social issues and improve the quality of life of the people living in the Bulkley Valley.
The Bulkley Valley Social Planning Society is a non-for-profit organization which acts to provide an inclusive community perspective on social issues and advocates for the resolution of those issues.
The Society liaises and collaborates with community groups, committees, agencies, the public, and government sectors to support a healthy thriving community that benefits all citizens. Membership is open to all residents of the Bulkley Valley.
We envision a society that is more just and encourage the community to move in that direction through full community participation and the awareness that everyone has something to offer.
The Bulkley Valley Social Planning Society strives to:
support the community in working together to provide a safe, convenient and people oriented environment, which ensures access to all community amenities by all citizens regardless of age, income or other factors
emphasize and foster citizen participation in all social planning decisions affecting Smithers
respond to changing social needs and issues in a responsible, flexible, collaborative and innovative manner
support and reinforce social development activities
The Society has been active in the community since the early 1990's, starting as an inclusive grassroots "Healthy Communities" initiative. Funding was secured through those years to work with community groups to implement projects that would identify priority social issues in the community, develop strategies, and take action on those issues.
In 2000, following recommendations from an economic development project initiated by the Economic Development Committee of the Smithers Chamber of Commerce, the group transitioned to become the Smithers Social Planning Council (SSPC). By 2006 a formal advisory role as a Committee of Council of the Town of Smithers was established. Over the next few years in partnership with the Town, the SSPC received funding from the Union of BC Municipalities Health Promotion fund to carry out several community development projects around community health, the determinants of health and quality of life measurements.
In 2009 Town Council restructured and devolved all Committees of Council and the formal relationship between the SSPC and the Town of Smithers ended. During the next few years the SSPC continued its work in an ad hoc role in the community until the decision was made by SSPC members to continue their work as a formal entity under the Society Act of BC. In June of 2010 the Bulkley Valley Social Planning Society (BVSPS) was incorporated as a not-for profit body that could work with and support individuals and groups throughout the Bulkley Valley area on social issues and concerns.

The service range of an optometrist
Article Tags: optometrist, optometrist services
Individuals always have good reasons to visit an optometrist. Sometimes they can not look and read the bill boards arching up high over the streets, and sometimes the words in a book burst into globules that fade and blur. A more dangerous situation because of poor vision is running into the street light. All these situations require people to drop in at the optometrist's office.
An optometrist is one of the members on the list of medical professions. This occupation along with ophthalmologists can be both called eye doctors. Optometrists are more general than ophthalmologists. An ophthalmologist covers a wider range of eye problems from eye diseases, injury diagnosis, and prescription eyewear to eye surgeries. Compared to an optometrist, a dispensing optician can only fit the contact lenses or eyeglasses according to the prescription made by an optometrist or ophthalmologist.
In general practice, optometrists can deal with nearly all issues described in ophthalmologists except for eye surgeries. One exception is that an optometrist can provide postoperative and preoperative care to all cataract patients after a cataract surgery. Serving children and adults, an optometrist can easily detect or diagnose common vision problems such as nearsightedness and farsightedness using a set of lenses. The precise powers of the eyes can be determined. According to this he can prescribe appropriate eyeglasses or contact lenses that offer vision correction. What's more, eye tests performed by an optometrist can also check patients' depth of vision, color perception, the focusing ability and vision coordinates.
An optometrist running private practice needs to keep electronic records, hire employees and prepare the patient's base. People can even get services from an optometrist at weekends. According to the American Optometric Association Survey, an optometrist works for about forty-nine hours every week. They will still reschedule the evening or weekend events for the sake of their patients.
Ralated Q&A
- Can an optometrist diagnose eye infection?
- What is the difference between an optometrist and ophthalmologist?
- Can an optometrist diagnose uveitis?
- Can an optometrist diagnose optic neuritis?
- Can an optometrist detect macular degeneration?
- Can an optometrist diagnose strabismus?
- Can an optometrist diagnose retinal detachment?
- Can an optometrist detect glaucoma?
- Can an optometrist diagnose cataracts?
- When should children start to see optometrist?

We are committed to ensuring a safe and happy environment for your child.
Following the incident on 17 September at Southern Cross University – Lismore Campus, we would like to share Headspace's mental health support resource (PDF 100.52KB) for students, teachers and school staff.
We support your child's health and safety through a range of strategies including:
- the behaviour code for students, which outlines the standards of behaviour expected in all NSW public schools
- anti-racism education
- anti-bullying programs
- conflict resolution and mediation training
- peer support
- road safety education
- the Healthy School Canteen Strategy.
For more information, visit the student wellbeing section of the department's website.
Like all NSW public schools, we promote the healthy development of students through:
- school programs and practices that protect and promote health and safety
- supporting individual students who need help with health issues
- providing first aid and temporary care of students who become unwell or who have an accident at school.
Student wellbeing
Like all NSW public schools, we provide safe learning and teaching environments to encourage healthy, happy, successful and productive students.
The department is committed to creating quality learning opportunities for children and young people. These opportunities support wellbeing through positive and respectful relationships and fostering a sense of belonging to the school and community.
The Wellbeing Framework for Schools helps schools support the cognitive, physical, social, emotional and spiritual development of students and allows them to connect, succeed and thrive throughout their education.
Restorative practices and wellbeing
Restorative Practices form the relational basis for Quality Teaching and Learning at Riverbank Public School. Our Restorative practice framework, because of its explicit nature, offers a common language and practice capable of fostering healthy relationships.
Please click here to view our Restorative Practises and wellbeing page for detailed information.
Supervision prior to 8:15am
Parents are advised that the school playground is unsupervised prior to 8:15am. Students should not arrive at school before this time. Students are asked to stay seated under the Covered Outdoor Learning Area (COLA) until the teachers are on duty.
An assistant principal will be on bus supervision from 2:45pm-3:00pm. Students have been shown where to meet after the 2:45pm bell so they can be escorted on to the bus.
Students arriving late to school
We understand that sometimes children need to arrive late to school due to specialist appointments, etc, however, no student is allowed to sign themselves in. To ensure their safe arrival at school, a parent must accompany them if they are arriving anytime after 8:45am. Should your child arrive unescorted after this time, you will be contacted and your child will remain in the school office until you return to sign them in.
Please do not drop your child at the gate after this time.
Any adult entering the school during school hours must report to the administration office and record their name and purpose of the visit in the visitor's book. They will be required to wear a visitor's badge while on the premises and to sign out on departure. Visitors will only be permitted to enter the school if they are on school business or by invitation from the school.
School parliament
An important aspect of modern schools is the establishment of student ownership in the day to day operations within the school; be it roles and responsibilities within the classroom, jobs out in the playground and also having a say in ways to improve the school. With this in mind, Riverbank Public School has established a student parliament. The parliament is run by Year 6 students who will take on the roles of speaker and prime minister.
The other prefects and house captains will adopt portfolios within the school, such as Minister of Sport, Minister for Functions, and Minister for Transport. During parliament, all students will have the opportunity to address the parliament and make suggestions of new things to be bought for the school, things that need changes, or things that need to be stopped.
Once the item is brought to the parliament's attention, the minister in charge of that area will take action on the issue under the guidance of school staff. The establishment of student parliament was an exciting step in the evolution of Riverbank Public School, and we know the students relish the opportunity to have a larger say in how the school is run.

Zackariah Harris Whiskey
Let's call a spade a spade.
Zackariah Harris isn't known for a smooth constitution.
It's a rough whiskey that burns on the way down.
And the people who drink it would burn before submitting to the status quo.
More alcohol is sold on the day before Thanksgiving than any other day – it's also known as "Blackout Wednesday".

I'm a beginner to timelapse photography, but I'm putting my notes here anyways for future reference.
When I had a stable tripod and setup, I used Adobe Lightroom plugins that adjusted the slideshow feature to make videos at adjustable framerates (this one, I think). This is easy and the Lightroom integration is nice for easily adjusting exposure or saturation in all the images. This simple workflow made this timelapse of my friends' wedding (title and music added separately):
In another run, my tripod wasn't perfectly stable, so I needed to align the images first. I couldn't figure out how to do that in Lightroom, so I used a few open source tools (after adjusting the images and then exporting them from Lightroom as jpegs):
sudo apt-get install hugin-tools imagemagick libav-tools
ls IMG*jpg | sort -n | xargs align_image_stack -a aligned -v -C
for f in aligned*.tif; do echo $f; convert $f $f.jpg; done;
avconv -framerate 12 -i aligned%04d.tif.jpg -r 24 -crf 25 -vf "scale=trunc(iw/2)*2:trunc(ih/2)*2" timelapse.mp4
This is an example from the second workflow. The camera is worse and so the image quality isn't as good, but the idea is the same.

UK Minister says farmers' issue 'absolutely, totally' a matter for India: Report
UK's relationship with India was also about how the two were working together, UK Minister Lord Tariq Ahmad said
The farmers' protests over agricultural reforms is an issue that is "absolutely and totally" a matter for the government of India, UK minister Lord Tariq Ahmad said on Friday ahead of his visit to New Delhi.
"The protests have been taking place for several months now and India as a democracy has totally guaranteed and secured the right to protest, which we fully acknowledge," he said, interacting with reporters ahead of a scheduled visit to India.
According to a report by the Hindustan Times, he noted that the principle of the farmers' protest in terms of the actual nature of it was "absolutely and totally a matter for the government of India".
"That position has been longstanding and has not changed," the Minister of State responsible for Indian Affairs in the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FDCO) said.
The minister categorically ruled out any scope of the matter overshadowing his extensive schedule in India, the report by wire service PTI published by HT noted.
The visit is seen as further finalizing the groundwork for the forthcoming tour of UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who is scheduled to visit India in the coming weeks ahead of the G7 summit in Cornwall in June, it further stated.
"The intense programme underlines the importance of our strong relationship with India. It follows on from our ongoing senior-level engagement at ministerial level. We look forward to the Prime Minister's (Johnson) visit in advance of Prime Minister (Narendra) Modi visiting as part of the G7," the minister said.
"Our relationship with India is not just one of bilateral importance, it's also about how these two countries are working together and there's no better illustration than the current Covid-19 pandemic which grips us… The role that India has played as the pharmacy of the world has been phenomenal," Ahmad said.
He argued that, "We've been extremely collaborative in our approach to this and publicly acknowledged the role India played in unlocking certain other pharmaceuticals, including the delivery of paracetamol."
With reference to planned supplies of a batch of Covishield vaccines from the Serum Institute of India to the UK, the minister reiterated that it symbolised the wide range of bilateral ties and would not impact both countries' commitment to ensuring supplies to more vulnerable regions through the UN-led COVAX facility.
Ahmad's visit to India will coincide with the UK's release of the government's Integrated Review into its post-Brexit foreign policy priorities next week, which is widely expected to confirm a so-called Indo-Pacific tilt in favour of countries like India.

The Dangers of Driving: Summer Sun Edition
Posted by admin at 2 July 2019, at 08 : 36 AM
Think that winter is the most dangerous time of year to be on the roads? Think again, when the sun comes out, there are a tonne of additional risks that you need to be aware of as a motorist. Here are some examples.
More pedestrians around
When the sun comes out, the first thing most people want to do is get outside. And so on sunny days, you're having to deal with pedestrians everywhere. This can be something to particularly bear in mind when you live in built up areas and people are constantly crossing the roads and close to vehicles. Combine this with the fact that schools out over the summer meaning more kids and teens are around (which are far more unpredictable around roads) and tourist who may not completely understand the road system in the country you live in- it can spell disaster. Always keep your speed low around built up areas, watch out for kids in the roads on quieter streets or people crossing from in between cars.
More bikes and motorbikes on the road
As well as more pedestrians to deal with, when the sun comes out, people tend to hop on their bicycles and motorbikes meaning you tend to have far more of these road users to watch out for too. Motorbikes tend to pose less of an issue, providing you give them space to filter through traffic they will overtake and get out of you way. However, with bikes it's always going to be you doing the overtaking. You need to give them plenty of space, while being mindful of oncoming traffic in the other lane- the last thing you need is to be dealing with a head on collision. Written off cars, serious medical issues and car crash lawyer bills could all result! Never try overtaking a bike when you're coming up to a junction or any hidden road such as dips or turns.
More road users meaning added congestion
More cars on the road causes traffic congestion which makes people feel irritated. When they start to get annoyed and rush, they can take risks which they might not otherwise take- pulling out at roundabouts when there's not a big enough gap, nipping into lanes of traffic without proper signalling and generally driving aggressively. Even if you don't fall into these traps yourself, others out there will and so these are additional things to be aware of when the traffic is busy.
More drink drivers
Not everyone is sensible when it comes to driving, and unfortunately the good weather can bring out the worst in some people. Some road users will blatantly drink drive when they're in a real mess, causing potential havoc on the roads. But many more will try and push it, they'll have a few so that they're over the limit but still think they're ok to drive. When in reality they're not, their reflexes are slower and their control of the car is poor compared with their normal driving. As road users, we all know that driving is about taking responsibility for ourselves, while being aware of what other vehicles are likely to do, so we can respond to this. Be aware that on sunny and warm days, there are probably going to be people around driving when they shouldn't be. If you see suspicious behaviour, pull over into a safe place and report this to the police.
Blinding sunlight
One of the reasons for many accidents in the summer is crashes due to poor visibility. When you think about poor visibility chances are it's rain, fog and snow over the winter that you think about, but the summer sun is incredibly blinding. Buy yourself a pair of polarised sunglasses to drive in, these are designed to reduce glare which can make it easier to see on the roads. If you really can't see what's in front of you, pull over and wait. If you can see but your vision is limited then keep your speed slow and your wits about you.
Excess heat can cause negative effects on your car and body
Finally, another reason why summer driving can be problematic is the toll that the heat can take on both your car and your vehicle. If you don't have AC then the inside temperatures can soar even with the windows open, then there's the dehydration and tiredness to deal with on long journeys. Very hot days can even cause the engine of your car to overheat and break down as a result. Make sure your breakdown cover is up to date, always park in shaded areas when you can and maintain your vehicle to give it the best chance of remaining reliable.

When you first start online dating, you are guaranteed to have just a few online dating benefits and drawbacks that you need to go through. The best way to accomplish this is to set yourself in the prospective lover's shoes. What would you wish to find in someone that you could potentially become involved with and eventually amourfactory sign in have a significant relationship with? This is decide on on the road to finding the perfect online dating sites match for you.
One of the positives to online dating services is that this allows you to get to know a person very well before making that dedication to actually reaching them personally. It can be extremely tempting to satisfy someone personally only to recognize that you do not actually click with them or perhaps they develop into the wrong person. This is especially true in the beginning of your marriage. With single profiles and photographs available to view, it is not necessary to take that risk.
Another pro to online dating websites is that this allows for superb communication. While you may be able to become familiar with someone better on a yourself to one basis, you can also consult with them more than chat or perhaps instant messenger. This allows for a great possibility to see the person in a several light prior to committing to an initial date and even an involvement. After all, if you do not find a biochemistry when you meet someone, chances are you is not going to find it while you are engaged. It's likely that, you might also wind up breaking up instead of getting married.
Probably one of the most important advantages and que contiene lists to discover is the an individual regarding wellbeing. Online dating provides for plenty of essential safety suggestions to be posted on the website to ensure that your personal data is maintained secure. For instance , most sites require that you give out a whole lot of fundamental information about your self. If you are the shy one who does not feel comfortable giving out the phone number or home address online, you should stay away from internet dating websites. Most likely, you will want to use a free dating site to begin with to let you build up an account that makes you look "safe".
One of the most well-known online dating advantages and disadvantages lists to determine involves the amount of time it requires to actually get acquainted with someone. The majority of people find that online dating services services take about 7 days for them to start seeing each other "in person". However , this can depend on how long you have been going to the site. Some people can be alright with it choosing them about a week, while others just do not need to wait that long. When it comes down to it, the choice is yours.
Another for the pros and cons to do this to see consists of the amount of wellbeing that comes with meeting someone. Online dating sites services do not offer face-to-face gatherings, which is something that can make or perhaps break a potential relationship. In spite of this, there are a lot of folks who do get along well enough when using the process that they do not brain. If you are someone who wants to do more, though, you may well be better off reaching someone face-to-face first. This could seem like an extremely obvious level, but it is one that people tend to forget about.
Although many online dating services give you the accessibility to meeting somebody first before occurring your first of all date, additionally, there are some that need it. Ahead of you register online for anything, it is always a good idea to do some research in whether or not a service offers this kind of service. Assuming you have friends that are upon any of these companies, you may be competent to get some first hand information. This would help you decide if you want to go through the trouble of reaching someone 1st.
Most likely one of the biggest internet dating pros and cons to do this you will ever see is that of the potential level of privacy problems that come from by using a social media system. Social media devices such as Facebook allow you to write about some very sensitive information about your self. If you are going on the blind time frame, this could be a big turn off just for the the two of you. For this reason, various people tend not to even bother with social media devices until they may have actually connected with in person. This could save a lot of time and avoid one of the more annoying potential relationship concerns.

After years of hearing critics blast the models' accuracy, climate scientist Zeke Hausfather decided to see just how good they have been. He tracked down 17 models used between 1970 and 2007 and found that the majority of them predicted results that were "indistinguishable from what actually occurred." "By and large our models have gotten it right, plus or minus a little bit," said Hausfather, a University of California, Berkeley scientist who is climate and energy director at the Breakthrough Institute.

In general, most birds are lighter than water. But diving ducks typically have higher body densities than other waterfowl. Just before they dive, the birds compress their feathers against their body, squeezing out air, which further reduces buoyancy. Next, with a single thrust of their powerful legs and feet, diving ducks arch their bodies upward and dive headlong, quickly disappearing beneath the water's surface.
These LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene) abstract shapes were cut from a sheet of melted common plastic bags. There are approximately 150 bags incorporated. Each shape is stud mounted onto a painted backdrop. Framing is pine.

Vice's new cable network is more popular on YouTube than on TV
In the weeks since the Viceland channel premiered on cable and satellite TV systems, the majority of viewers have actually been watching its programming elsewhere: online.
Vice Media Inc. released early episodes of six series on Facebook, YouTube and vice.com to stimulate interest among its younger, male fan base. On YouTube, episodes have drawn between 166,000 views (for the second episode of Ellen Page's "Gaycation") and 6.3 million (for the premiere of the show "Weediquette").
While Vice has declined to report TV ratings for Viceland, the company says views online indicate a happy fan base that will help pave the way for success in traditional TV, which promises higher ad revenue.
"Our strategy was to get the episodes out to as many people as possible and as many places as possible, and we got really healthy viewership on all platforms," Guy Slattery, general manager of Viceland, said in an interview. "Our audience will do the bulk of its viewing on nonlinear platforms."
Vice says 72 percent of Viceland's online viewers are between the ages of 18 and 34, and 73 percent are male, an elusive demographic for TV networks with aging audiences. Almost half of the people watching Viceland on Vice's website have a household income of more than $100,000, according to a fact sheet compiled to demonstrate New York-based Vice's digital reach. The music magazine-turned-media giant has released numbers meant to convey total video views, but has declined to break out viewership by episode or platform.
"When people don't tell you numbers, it's because they aren't jumping up and down to promote them," said Paul Verna, an analyst with eMarketer. "Vice is breaking new ground in going from online to cable. Until we see the numbers for both and how they interrelate, we won't have a clear sense of how they are doing."
So far, the most-watched episode on Viceland's YouTube channel is the premiere of "Weediquette," a show about marijuana's growing place in culture. With an average watch time on YouTube of 12 minutes, the 6.3 million views of the hour-long episode come to about 1.6 million views over the past three weeks. Using the same equation, the audience for "Gaycation" is around 465,000 viewers over three weeks.
Networks seldom release full episodes of shows for free on social networks, making comparisons difficult here. Still, none of the Viceland shows approach the online viewership of Fox hits such as "Family Guy," "Empire," "Scream Queens" and "Gotham," all of which top 1.8 million streams on Hulu and Fox's website (to say nothing of linear TV). They also are smaller than the traditional viewership of "Teen Wolf," a show squarely aimed at a younger demo that airs on MTV, which Vice Chief Executive Officer Shane Smith has said "imploded."
Yet Vice's popularity with young males has attracted the attention of old media companies like 21st Century Fox Inc., Walt Disney Co. and Time Warner Inc. Fox and Disney have invested in the company, while Time Warner has commissioned Vice to make programming for its premium cable network HBO. That show introduced Vice to an older, affluent TV audience, one Vice hopes to lure to a channel of its own.
Traditional TV is still the most lucrative medium for programming. That's why Vice, for all its talk about online, wanted a TV network. There are also no ads accompanying the Viceland shows online yet, meaning viewership hasn't translated into sales.
"TV has amazing reach," Slattery said. "We're introducing new audiences to Vice content. It's too early to evaluate."

Andrew Sullivan and Winnie the Pooh
I've been reading the Winnie the Pooh books to my four-year-old daughter, so it's extra cool to be able to click over to Andrew Sullivan's Daily Dish and see what the Hundred Acre Wood actually looks like. For this, we can thank Andrew himself, who is currently vacationing in Surrey, England -- where A.A. Milne set his Pooh adventures -- and posting snapshots like the one below. (Didactic Pooh wonks, such as my daughter, would point out that technically only Owl's house is located in the Hundred Acre Wood, and Pooh spells it "Hundred Aker Wood," and Pooh is yellow... but I'm intending this post for a lay audience.) Anyway, the Hundred Acre Wood is believed to have been inspired by Ashdown Forest, right near where Andrew grew up. Though I expected I'd wait a few more years before taking this step, I'm considering introducing my daughter to The Dish, just because she'd be fascinated by the "View From Pooh's Window" (please keep it clean, guys!):

A Canadian eTA usually entails a quick and easy application process, but sometimes things don't quite go as planned. Even if you do your best to fill out the form correctly, you may receive notice that your eTA authorization is pending. So, what does this mean? What can cause your application processing to be delayed? Here are some of the most common reasons that some Canadian eTA applications do not get automatically approved.
You made an error
Did you mistype your passport number? One digit is easy to miss, but it can make a big difference on your eTA application. If you made a mistake like this on your eTA application, you will experience delays and may have to reapply. This is an easily-avoidable scenario. When filling out your information, be very careful to type your name, passport number, and various dates correctly. Take the time to double-check your application when you are done. The good news is that a typo or clerical error will rarely (if ever) cause your application to be rejected entirely. However, mistakes will most likely need to be rectified by submitting a fresh eTA application.
Your name matched in a security database
If your identity is associated with security concerns, you will have to wait for your application to be manually processed. This can happen if you have a criminal record, or it can happen if you are in any way connected to human rights violations and/or organized crime. You may also experience application processing delays if you are associated with any other security concerns of Canadian immigration personnel.
You have been convicted of driving under the influence
If you ever needed a reason to avoid driving while drunk or under the influence of drugs, this is a good one. If you have been convicted of driving while impaired by a substance, your application may be flagged. In many cases, a conviction of this kind may cause your eTA application to be denied.
The computer flagged your application
Most applications are processed electronically, which is why eTAs can be approved within minutes. However, if the computer detects anything that seems out of place, it will trigger an alert for a manual review. This usually happens for security reasons, as described above.
You have a health concern
The eTA application asks for information about your health history. You must answer whether you have had tuberculosis or any contact with a tuberculosis sufferer. You also must select any conditions you have from a dropdown menu. Depending on the issue, a medical concern may cause your Canadian eTA authorization to be delayed, as it might need to undergo manual processing.
After reading this list of possible application delay causes, you were probably able to figure out why your Canadian eTA application authorization is still pending. Hopefully, you will receive notification of your eTA status well before your planned departure date to Canada. The best way to avoid complications due to processing delays is to begin the process early. If you haven't applied for your Canadian eTA yet, do it as soon as possible to avoid inconveniences due to unexpected delays.
If you hold a passport from a country that is eligible for the Canada eTA such as the UK, Ireland, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, or many other eTA eligible countries, you will need to obtain an approved eTA before your tourism, business or medical visit to Canada. Get started on your application, otherwise, visit the eTA requirements to learn more about the Canada eTA

Tony, In a follow up to our discussion, I wanted to review a few touch points we covered regarding the NADA Convention and Expo that could be useful to the manufactured housing industry and its trade shows.
There are many obvious differences between the NADA convention and the one in Tunica or Louisville, but the concept is essentially the same, "To provide value, education, business growth opportunities (best practices) and industry harmony – one unified front to effectively deal with the challenges facing the industry."
These can be explained in simple terms:
Creating value in a destination conference that gives both exhibitors and attendees a no-brainer decision to leave their business, invest in the cost of travel, hotels and out of office costs associated with the event, knowing they will get a return on their investment through education, best practices and the knowledge gained to improve their business and bottom line.
Bringing in experts in various specific subject matters to provide the valuable knowledge needed to compete in our ever changing business climate. Even if they come from a different industry, many businesses face very similar challenges. Those who do not evolve in this world WILL be left behind.
Business Growth Opportunity (best practices)
Contacts, product exposure, and networking are all ways to learn about best practices. What works for some businesses may very well work for another. Exchanging ideas and communicating with thought leaders also provide education and information not covered in many sessions or seminars.
Industry Harmony
By creating this overall environment it becomes easier to convey the ever changing issues facing the industry today. This continued exposure and spread of this information will get more people pushing the wagon in the same direction supporting the strength in numbers theory which is proven.
By bringing this type of value to convention/conference events is will go a long way towards moving the needle on any fence sitters who may find other reasons to either not attend or just stay for a shorter time period. There is a goal to make the event a stronger draw than the need to get back to the office a day or two earlier. If you can provide that type of value, then attendees and exhibitors will all win.
Following these concepts, we had strong growth for the convention linked below.
Tony, I have provided a pretty strong blueprint to what I feel may be some of the solutions to help improve the good things that already happen at MH Industry trade shows, to build on the foundation that is already in place. As we discussed, having education each day – not just the afternoon before the show opened – could have been a magnet for dozens if not hundreds of pros to stay longer or come on day 2 or 3 of the event.
Below is a link to the agenda schedule coming at the NADA auto dealer's event. The education list is a long one, but worth while to review and see what is being offered. I'm in no way saying that this is what the MH industry should cover, but it does show the depth and detail in what's being presented to an industry that just had record breaking sales in 2015. If MH wants growth records broken too, getting the best possible trade show is a piece of the puzzle for making that happen. ##

Bazooka PinkGary Holland
It was Private Archer's private nightmare.
A column of infantrymen shuffled slime-footed down a narrow jungle pathway wrapped securely in bulletproof vests, concealed in full-body camouflage, carrying every weapon known to combat. Private Archer shuffled second in line carrying rubber tourniquets, intravenous saline and a box full of "slam-and-squeeze" morphine syrettes. A lone soldier walked point, swarmed by mosquitoes feeding greedily at his thin white throat while he probed the dense foliage with an automatic rifle never finding what he sought. The point man stopped before a fire blackened opening, then turned toward Archer seeming to ask, "Are you with me?" But before Archer could answer the soldier turned again, walked a step forward, then disappeared into the dark inevitable.
The universe exploded in gunfire. Archer winced, stabbed with terror. Swarms of bullets like wildfire-panicked bees screamed past him seething to be anywhere else. Limbs and leaves, blasted to confetti, fogged the air while Private Archer quivered, stunned by fear.
He started to flee, but his feet remained stuck, embedded ankle deep in something the size of elephant dung. He was surprised by the smell---his favorite childhood bubble gum "Bazooka Pink." He struggled to free himself, but his boots remained pinned to the earth. There was no way to run, no place to hide, and no means of self-defense. His only choice was surrender. He surrendered his body to the ground.
There, belly to the mud, panic loosed its grip. But from the black hole burst a scream so agonizing he covered his ears trying desperately not to hear. "Medic!" The point man begged him by name. "Help me... Please."
Archer strained to crawl forward, but the "Bazooka Pink" would not let him go. He twisted his head seeking help from the infantrymen behind, but when he looked there was no one there.
The soldier in the black hole cried out again, "Medic!" And then Archer felt itp---a sharp pain deep in his abdomen. "I've been hit," he said aloud.
Archer groped his belly beneath his boxer shorts but felt no wet holes nor smelled smoking flesh. There was no wound, yet when he pressed firmly the pain increased. The deeper he pushed the greater the pain. Then he realized what that pain truly was. He had to go. He had to go badly---and wanted to go badly. But someone inside him, someone bigger than he, commanded "No!" Archer's instinct compelled him to obey. So he reached for his childhood mantra.
"I will not wet my pants," he whispered. "I will not wet my pants."
Private Archer awoke abruptly, straightened in his seat, wiped the drool from his chin and tried to free his boot which had glued itself by a wad of chewing gum to the carpet.
"Good morning, gentlemen," the stewardess said. "Hope you enjoyed your flight. Please fasten your seat belts and observe the 'No Smoking' sign. The weather in Saigon is hazy, the humidity is ninety-five percent, the temperature is currently one-hundred ten degrees. Hope you all enjoy your stay in the Republic of Vietnam."

Scientists develop new tool to study nicotine receptors
A team of scientists has developed a new technique to better understand the effects of nicotine on the brain. In a study published in Nature Methods, the investigators described the creation of a novel light-activated nicotine compound, which will allow scientists to better study receptors that play a key role in nicotine addiction.
"Investigators are now able to study the neurotransmitter receptor for nicotine in ways not previously possible," said co-corresponding author Ryan M. Drenan, PhD, associate professor of Pharmacology. "Scientists interested in studying nicotine dependence or acetylcholine—the neurotransmitter that normally binds to 'nicotine receptors'—now have a fantastic tool that, when properly employed, may enable us to uncover fundamental principles of cholinergic transmission."
Matthew C. Arvin, PharmD, a graduate student in Drenan's laboratory, was a co-first author of the study, which was conducted in collaboration with investigators at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute's Janelia Research Campus.
Photoactivatable versions of drugs, which can be activated by brief flashes of light, are an important tool used in pharmacological research to study processes in cells and to model drug behavior. Until recently, however, scientists lacked the ability to develop compounds for many drugs, including a class with a so-called "tertiary nitrogen," which includes nicotine.
In the current study, the team of scientists developed a new chemical method for preparing derivatives of such previously "uncageable" drugs—and applied the strategy to nicotine. After developing a photoactivatable nicotine, called PA-Nic, they utilized the compound to study nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
"We used the probe to reveal new details about how chronic nicotine exposure changes the activity and location of these receptors, paving the way for a new approach to studying nicotine dependence," Drenan said.
The new strategy will be essential for studies of acetylcholine transmission and nicotine dependence, but the approach could also be applied to other drugs that have a tertiary nitrogen, according to the authors. For example, the study demonstrates the creation of photoactivatable versions of the opioid fentanyl and the antidepressant escitalopram, among others.
"This could lead to novel research in many aspects of neurobiology that impact human health, including mood disorders or the opioid epidemic," Drenan said.

David Einhorn sniffed out fixed income trouble in 2008 and sees more ahead in the US corporate bond market. In fact, the hedge fund chieftain is shorting corporate debt.
So downbeat is Greenlight Capital, his firm, about corporates that it is betting on price tumbles for both investment-grade and junk-rated paper. And he points a finger at ratings agencies for going easy on companies that load on debt.
Right now, of course, defaults are low for corporate bonds, both investment-grade and not. And bond issuance has been robust amid low interest rates. A good chunk of those new bonds are to fund acquisitions, whose debt is a burden going forward. Perhaps the agencies are buying acquirers' line that the new combined entities, no matter how highly leveraged, will be stronger and future results will offset the debt loads.
"Rating agencies have been complacent and allowed debt/Ebitda and debt/equity ratios to deteriorate without a corresponding reduction in credit ratings," Einhorn wrote in a recent letter to investors, according to Bloomberg. "Meanwhile, we are a decade into an economic recovery and there are signs the economy may be slowing."
And it's recessions that prove the undoing of many an indebted company, as revenue dwindles, and thus paying interest and principal at maturity prove elusive.
Einhorn is far from alone in warning against a reckoning ahead for corporate bonds. Scott Mather, who is chief investment officer for US core strategies at bond house Pimco, in May sounded an alarm and recommended that investors opt instead for safer Treasuries. "We have probably the riskiest credit market that we have ever had," he said, even worse than the run-up to the 2008-09 financial crisis.
A similar note is sounded by JP Morgan Asset Management's head of global fixed income, Bob Michele. This spring, he did an about-face and suggested shedding corporates because it is late in the economic cycle, and these bonds get hurt in downturns.
Einhorn proved remarkably prescient in 2008, when he repeatedly inveighed against Lehman Brothers, which he viewed as laden with toxic housing-related debt, and ready for a fall. He also charged that it used dubious accounting practices. When Lehman collapsed in September of that year, which touched off the crisis, he emerged as something of a savant.
Since then, he has had ups and downs. In 2018, his main fund lost 34%, thanks to his value investing philosophy, which hasn't been in vogue for some time. This year through June, however, it is up 18%, the result of more concentrated bets.
Greenlight couldn't be reached for comment.
