Several years ago, I reviewed ITIL Version 3.0. When I got to the continual improvement volume, I asked the team whether the message was about continuous or continual improvement. I was told that continual improvement was chosen because improvement wouldn't ever be nonstop in IT. Clearly, in the disruptive era, improvement may need to occur continuously. Jeanne Ross, in her upcoming book, Designed for Digital: How to Architect Your Business for Sustained Success, suggests in fact that CIOs should aim "to make a company agile so that it can create an innovative and constantly evolving portfolio of digital offerings in response to rapidly changing technologies and customer demands."
How many organizations have moved from a cluster of improvement projects to embedding continuous improvement into their DNA?
One of the CIOs in our weekly #CIOChat Twitter chat session kicked off this part of the conversation by saying they don't believe in "organizational DNA." They said an organization's behavior and culture are a series of practices and people. They felt that CIOs should make it easier to do the right thing. By doing this, the above CIO claimed, people will make improvement happen more often. CIOs in general believe that continuous improvement requires management intent, resources, people, and a genuine level of care in the culture to make it real. Importantly, CIOs see continuous improvement as being a set of evolutionary steps.
CIOs suggest, however, that while continuous improvement is almost everyone's goal, most IT teams are not there yet. One problem is that only some organizations have the required processes such as agile retrospectives and follow throughs. This is because these are hard and time consuming. Nevertheless, several CIOs suggested a good way to get started is to embed in the business, special teams working on projects of importance to them. The results for these kinds of efforts will get continuous improvement embedded into the corporate DNA. CIOs suggest that when you reward and celebrate continuous improvement, more of it happens organically.
Former CIO, Tim McBreen, shared that in his IT organizations, he created 2 rotating SWAT teams. The first was for solution capability improvement and the second for data analytics. These teams rotate through different business units on a quarterly basis. Their focus was upon short-term, high value improvements. His business partners loved this. In the first 30 days, they figure out the what and how. In the second 30 days, they would build it; and in the last 30 days, they would deploy and support it. In this manner, value is received quickly in each group that they touch.
CIOs suggest that if your organization hasn't started continuous improvement as an initiative, you will cluster your way to irrelevancy. Clearly, success does not just require IT management; it requires the rest of the business. Continuous improvement needs the right business culture to flourish. As well, embracing continuous improvement involves admitting that something within the organization needs improvement. For some this can be a step too far. CIOs, however, suggest culture change starts by admitting you can do better. Clearly, organizations cannot change until they admit that they have flaws worth fixing.
What role do CIOs have in establishing a culture of continuous improvement?
CIOs believe they often have a leading role and it is essential that they develop a shared responsibility. CIOs stress that technology cannot be an island anymore. It relies on seamless connections everywhere. One CIO stated that CIOs need to use some of the concepts from Patrick Lencioni's "The Advantage" to create a proper culture and environment.
Unless we assume that only IT processes can stand continuous improvement, the CIO has the same role as every other business leader in the digital age. CIOs, however, should be in the center of helping apply technology to other line of business' efforts. But CIOs can only be part of the puzzle. The leadership team needs to buy in. Jeanne Ross agrees when she says in her coming book that "digital business design is a shared responsibility of senior executives in a company".
In some cases, the CIO needs to push for the involvement of the leadership team and build the process as part of the "grow" component of budget. Unfortunately, many leadership teams are only quarterly driven. These leaders like quick wins that provided immediate value. According to McKinsey & Company and Geoffrey Moore, it is a mistake not to also have mid-term and long-term investment horizons.
To succeed at continuous improvement, it is critical throughout the process to reward improvement, thinking, and partnership. CIOs should actively coach and mentor their immediate staff and require them to do the same for their teams. They need to be leaders and questioners, but they also need to be someone worth emulating. It is worthy that CIOs stress to their team that every time they hear some variant of "we've always done it that way," the speaker 'owes the kitty' a nominal amount.
It should be clear that typically, the CIO is the only executive who sees every process, across the organization from top to bottom. They're in a unique position to see what's needed holistically. They need at the same time to ensure that their organization is good at creating and deploying tools to map, change, and automate processes. This requires positive energy and proactive action to make sure that the right things happen at the right time.
CIOs believe IT organizations need to have a process perspective and mindset, and the tools to effectively manage change. CIOs suggest it is better to start somewhere than starting nowhere and fail everywhere. Clearly, it is important that CIOs be business savvy executives and have a business perspective when it comes to technology.
How can CIOs nurture the behavioral and cultural attributes of excellence?
There are many actions that CIOs can take here. CIOs should start by celebrating every time someone screams enough that we get it, or someone models a desired behavior. Every leader can foster specific behaviors by emulating them and rewarding/incenting properly. CIOs can best nurture and develop excellence by modeling the way. Don't expect everyone else to meet a high standard if you're not willing to meet them yourself.
CIOs must be an example of the behavior that is desired. With this said, they should provide mentoring and opportunities for 'A players' to learn and grow. It is also important, for CIOs to clearly articulate expectations and provide well-defined near-term and long-term goals. This includes measuring progress regularly including the increase in improvement velocity. Part of this involves providing reward and praise based upon results. It has always astounded me personally that managers don't provide authentic praise when great work is done. It costs nothing.
Apart from leading by example, CIOs need to make it easy for diverse populations to work within IT. This means, says one CIO, throwing away the 1950s playbook and implementing a 21st century playbook that enables people of color, women, and differently abled folks. When you do this, CIOs say the magic happens. In terms of the playbook, CIOs, when demanded, should be the model for the rest of the business. One CIO gave the example of a leader complaining about their staff putting in a full day, but their boss said they were having trouble with this leader being in the office.
Finally, CIOs have an advantage because they see all data flow. They need to use this picture to help people that don't operate at the 'process' level relate this to the big picture as it intersects business strategy. The c-suite handles 'how' so the CEO can do 'why' and 'what'.' A natural ally here is the CFO who understands how financial data flows up, down and across the organization. The CIOs can help them understand more than one dimension of the problem.
How can CIOs solicit ideas for improvement that can be responded to quickly?
CIOs had many suggestions. CIOs believe that the best way to create engagement is by being trusted. Next is by being available. CIOs referred to Tom Peter's concept of "management by walking around". Without trust IT Departments have no place to start. Without availability IT Departments miss opportunities. Given this, Melissa Woo, CIO of Stoneybrook University, asked "why, oh why, are our job ads/descriptions littered with technical requirements"? This is a great question. Why does one dimension of a CIOs job dominate their job description?
Clearly, public recognition of good ideas, plus support across the c-suite, often helps with getting ideas. And the reality is there is no shortage of employees who have great ideas. CIOs say it is important to ask front-line workers and middle managers, what IT is doing that prevents them from accomplishing their job. The management literature is filled with examples of companies that listen and take advantage of ideas surfaced internally or externally.
For CIOs, being at the right conferences provide external opportunity visibility. But it can be just as valuable to join LOB department meetings. Here they should see and be seen regularly. It is important that CIOs and their teams speak to people and know their business environment. Being heard and listened to is the simplest and most effective way to be available and reap the rewards. Another two suggestions are as follows:
- Invite recent hires (new enough to remember their prior shop, tenured enough to know our 'gotchas') for coffee
- Invite IT and business middle managers to a joint lunch and let them chat.
How important is making the improvement model simple?
CIOs say that any time you can lower the barriers to entry, you are likely to obtain improved involvement. Lowering barriers is especially important when you are trying to solicit new behaviors. Fundamentally, as with any idea, adoption will be increased by understanding. Transformation requires engagement. This means doing it 'with' the team rather than 'to' the team. Your process as a goal should foster engagement.
It is important that CIOs keep processes simple. They should make complex business solutions simple by following a simple review process. For example, removing functions to streamline a complex order handling. CIOs should, also, regularly meet with customers and prospects that picked a competitor. But most organizations have so many operational processes that need help that any function you visit will generate a long list. For this reason, portfolio management and agile, have become important skills.
Continuous improvement is an idea that has come of age in the digital era. It is needed because business today needs to do what Jeanne Ross suggests "be capable of delivering a constant evolving, innovative set of digital offerings." The question is your business ready and if not, what do they need to change to get ready.

Gift of music for at-risk youth
Above: The Boston Conservatory Honors String Quartet. Photo submitted
The perception of the classical music scene does not depict a lively one. It is not uncommon for the genre to be considered stuffy and for an older and wealthier crowd of elitists. However, the Worcester Chamber Music Society (WCMS) is making leaps and bounds in removing that stigma. Forming a new partnership with Bridging the Gap, the two organizations will team up to provide high-risk youth with the opportunity to learn and rehearse with a pre-professional string quartet from the renowned Boston Conservatory and share the stage for a concluding concert.
Bursting onto the classical music scene in 2006, the WCMS has spent the past seven years not only performing for the Worcester adult community, but garnering younger audience members, as well. Partnered with Clark University, WCMS created Neighborhood Strings - a program that offers free music lessons to students residing in the Main South area. Having been well-received, recently being recognized for the Emilia Peabody Foundation and awarded a $10,000 grant, WCMS began to make further strides to bring classical music to the younger generations of Worcester.
Receiving direction from lead corporate sponsor Bay State Savings Bank, WCMS first came in touch with Bridging the Gap – one of the city's social services organizations. Bridging the Gap, led by Amanda Thompson, is a 12-week life skill training Salvation Army program for high-risk teens, many of whom are state-mandated to be there. "After meeting with Amanda and learning more about the needs of her teens and where they are currently on their journeys towards obtaining constructive means for managing anger, speaking up and taking positive actions towards change, it was clear to me that music may be another useful tool for them to explore and [possibly] add to their 'life skills toolbox,'" explains Krista Buckland Reisner, Summer Festival & Camp director and Business Development director for WCMS.
With WCMS's Summer Festival & Camp for musicians, those attending have the honor of learning from Helen Lee, David Do, John Batchelder and Bryon Hogan, all from the Boston Conservatory acting in WCMS's fellowship ensemble-in-residence position. Showing a distinct interest to bringing music to kids in unconventional ways, Reisner realized a way to connect with Thompson's Bridging the Gap program. During the camp, the Boston Conservatory Honors String Quartet will meet with adolescents from Bridging the Gap four times to work on the basics of music construction, including rhythm, melody, mood/color and storytelling. "These fundamental building blocks of music can be explored with kids who have no prior musical training or knowledge as these are inherently in all of human beings, whether we actively know it or not," explains Reisner.
The quartet will work with those from Bridging the Gap to craft a short improvisational piece to present on stage at the Summer Festival & Camp's final student concert on July 19 at Clark University's Razzo Hall. Including the improv piece that the Bridging the Gap participants will create is a natural extension of what is already done with WCMS students. "These two improv groups … will show that the art of improvisation can be approached from opposite sides of the coin. Hopefully this will produce an effect that is even greater than the stand-alone pieces, not only for all the young budding musicians performing in the concert, but our audience," Reisner says.
This union epitomizes a facet of WCMS's mission - to teach life skills of personal responsibility, ownership and creative thinking through the study of chamber music. "The inspiration behind our partnership is based on the value of hope, the universality of the human condition and the commonality of music as a way of constructively giving voice to our struggles, frustrations, dreams and desires for positive change in the world," says Reisner.
WCMS's goal to change the longlasting perception that classical music is for richer, older white people, will be met by joining forces with Bridging the Gap. Reisner and her team, while acknowledging ridding the public's mind of the stereotype will take time, are committed to bringing their music to people on their own terms. "This requires that we listen to what they want and need, learn where we can be useful to them and then create programs and atmospheres that eliminate as many barriers to entry as possible."
In that vein, this year at WCMS's Summer Festival & Camp young musicians are working on tunes by popular favorites such as Bob Marley and Jimi Hendrix, and an improv group using Klezmer and Indian-classical music as a base. "The goal with including these styles of music in a classical chamber music camp is to help our own kids break out of some of the training they have had and free them up as they work towards personal expression," says Reisner. In turn, she explains, this influences the students' approach to classical works and allows them to really own the pieces.
"This is particularly important in a city like Worcester, which has thriving ethnic communities including Latino, Vietnamese, Albanian and Haitian. Each of these groups have their own musical heritages, traditions, current trends. While WCMS happens to play the classic music of Western Europe, other cultures have their own classic music, too," says Reisner.
In the end, it all comes down to sharing the universal gift of music. "Our goal is to put forth the idea that music is music, no matter what form it is in or where it comes from."
Witness budding musicians making their mark at the final student concert on Friday, July 19 at 3 p.m. at Razzo Hall at Clark University. For more information of WCMS, visit worcesterchambermusic.org.

I am so excited to be a part of Katherine's Corner and a few of her blog friends for an Easter on a tray tour. Get ready to pin some great trays!
With my love for a tiered tray, I was excited to create a tray for our kitchen table.
With my boys home for the Easter weekend, it was the perfect time to celebrate with spring colors for Easter. If you are stopping by *** welcome to Everyday Edits. If you are stopping by from Katherine's Easter tray welcome to Everyday Edits. My name is Laura and I live in Colorado. Hopefully, we do not have snow for Easter.
I love a tiered tray because it does not take up valuable real estate in the kitchen Instead, it takes advantage of the vertical space! A tiered tray is the condo of trays.
I keep my tray on the kitchen table because it does not take up much space on our smaller nook-like eating space.
I was late to the tiered tray obsession. They can get pricey and there are a ton of holidays and seasons to celebrate over the course of a year. Who knew? ;0) Here is how I created a spring and Easter tiered tray on a budget.
- Shop your house for pastel colors
- Add greenery
- Easter eggs
- I purchased the cheapest tray bundles here.
That's it! If you do not have a tiered tray this one is on sale.
Just remember that the rule for most decor ideas is not to overthink the process.
And keep a cabinet or bin for those objects that will fit into a tiered tray.
You will be surprised how many you have in your house.
I would love it if you pinned this image for others to find on Pinterest!
Please visit Jenna's Easter tray on her blog The Painted Apron here.
You can check out the full tour links below:

she passed away on saturday. we did her memorial service last night. today we will bury her ashes on top of her husband.
i was just looking over some of my previous posts. it's so fresh that reading them brings me back to the mindset of a week or a month ago. i think the hardest part about fresh death is that my mind hasn't completely integrated that she's gone now, so i still switch back and forth. dying. dead. here… when? gone.
i was running like a maniac before she died. first it was back and forth to her house. then it was back and forth to the hospice. go to work. go to the gym. planning the stops i needed to make that day. when she passed, my cousins and i still had tasks to accomplish. meet with the funeral home. meet with the celebrants. put together a dvd of pictures. make the posters. find those mementos my aunt wanted displayed. write the eulogy.
she talked to us before she died about how if she could visit us after she died, she would do it in little signs. that was a sweet little comfort. my mom got what she believed to be her sign right away. i think of her signs to me more as the legacy of our conversations, of her inspiring words and direction. so i go about my day with my thoughts wrapped up in things like, is this how she wanted me to do it? she talked to me about this aspect of myself, yes i'll make this choice right now. this opportunity, is this something she sent to me?
those thoughts and memories and the mad search for meaning i fill my mind with… that's definitely a positive way for me to carry out a personal legacy with her. people say your loved ones that pass live on, stay with you, they live in your heart. i believe that. i can call her up anytime with sweet memories and imaginary conversations.
but i'm also coming to the sad realization that when i calm my mind and just sit with it… she's not here. her spirit is not hanging around to comfort me for the rest of my life, she's not my personal angel. she's free. i can conjure her memory and feel my experience of her, but she's gone.
before she died, i was tied up in sadness, pre-mourning. i think part of me thought that i was getting the hard part out of the way before she died. i was getting impatient, devastated by the act of saying goodbye again and again. i was saying to myself, this has to end, God please take her so we can move on into the mourning! what a ridiculous wish. what did i want to move on to? this?
death is really hard to wrap my head around. i thought she would die and we'd be sad and then we'd move back into familiar routines of life. and that will happen. but there's this big empty space staring at me that i don't know what to do with. no more caretaking, no more fear about when and how she's going to die, no more what am i gonna do? just this empty space where her life was. so strange.

I marched the football field.
One end to the other end repeatedly.
I scored a great many touchdowns.
No one kept score.
I marched as much as humanly possible
in a non-marshal manner.
I did carry a long paper tube baton and twirled it,
but that was to keep mosquitoes away.
Much of the time I marched I pretended
I was part of a drum and bugle corp band.
The rest of the time I marched I pretended
I was a protester near the White House.
There was some overlap in my pretending.
It was not my intention to interrupt
the President's tea with India's ambassador
with a hundred and twenty bandmates.
The geese at the nearby lake
paid me little heed after they learned
that I did not bring them any bread
and honked their disappointment.

Mesh WiFi Network
Whole Home WiFi System: The Orbi RBK13 WiFi System creates dedicated high-speed WiFi connections to your Internet service. The Orbi system includes a router and two satellites. The router connects to your modem or gateway (not included), while the satellite extends the WiFi signal throughout your home. This 3-pack WiFi system provides reliable WiFi coverage up to 4,500 sq/ft throughout your home.
ISP Compatibility: The Orbi RBK13 WiFi System is compatible with all internet service providers (ISP) and recommended for homes with over 50Mbps Internet plans. Just connect to your modem to create high-speed WiFi for your whole home. Unlike some WiFi systems, Orbi works with your existing gateway or modem and Internet service provider right out of the box. You won't need to change your current equipment to use the Orbi WiFi Home System. Orbi uses a single WiFi name (SSID) and with just a couple of clicks, your secure WiFi network will be ready in no time.
- If your gateway or modem has router functionality, when you set up the Orbi network, choose AP mode and turn off your existing gateway or modem's WiFi to improve performance.
- If your gateway or modem does not have router functionality, when you set up the Orbi network, select router mode and turn off your existing gateway or modem's WiFi to improve performance.
Note: After your existing WiFi is disabled, you can use that WiFi network name for your Orbi network.
One Network Name: Orbi provides a single WiFi network for your entire house. With Orbi, you have one network name and password, and you don't need to change networks as you move around your home. In contrast, extenders work by repeating the WiFi signal of your router to other parts of your house. As a result, with an extender, you have two different WiFi networks to connect to - one for your router and another for your range extender. That means you need to reconnect based on where you are in your home. Orbi creates a single high speed network that gives your entire home complete coverage. Orbi dynamically optimizes your connections for you without having to reconnect.
710MHz Quad-Core Processor: A powerful quad-core 710MHz processor delivers high-performance connectivity, while a 256GB flash memory and 512MB RAM offers reliable throughput.
Dual-Band WiFi: Dual-band WiFi gives you the maximum flexibility when it comes to setting up a home network. Simultaneous Dual Band WiFi provides two separate WiFi networks - 2.4GHz for legacy devices and 5GHz which is less interference-prone for media streaming. Simultaneous Dual Band WiFi reduces interference for better connections to more WiFi devices.
- 2.4GHz: max 400 Mbps (802.11 b/g/n)
- 5GHz: max 866 Mbps (802.11 a/n/ac)
802.11ac: NETGEAR's Orbi features a WiFi 802.11ac chipset for fast download speeds. It is also backward compatible with 802.11 b/g/n devices. Next generation 802.11ac WiFi (2.4GHz/5GHz) avoids wireless interference and provides whole home coverage ensuring top WiFi speeds (up to 12Gbps) and reliable connections.
Amplified Antennas: High-performance antennas with high-powered amplifiers provide extremely reliable WiFi connectivity throughout larger homes for all your Internet-enabled devices.
Advanced WiFi Technologies: With features like MU-MIMO, WMM QoS, & Beamforming, you get enhanced speed and increased reliability so you can roam freely throughout your home without fear of slow or dropped connections.
- Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO): Using Multi-User MIMO technology, the NETGEAR router can stream data to multiple devices simultaneously. With MU-MIMO, your WiFi network can deliver faster throughput to every MU-MIMO connected device. That means faster downloads and smoother streaming for your devices.
- WMM QoS: WMM QoS prioritizes WiFi data packets from different applications based on four access categories - voice, video, best effort, and background.
- Beamforming: Beamforming boosts speed, reliability, and range of WiFi connections on 2.4 and 5GHz band. The result is a stronger, faster, more reliable connection that is locked in even when the device is moved around the home.
UPnP: Universal Plug N Play (UPnP) helps devices, such as Internet appliances and computers, access the network and connect to other devices as needed. UPnP devices can automatically discover the services from other registered UPnP devices on the network
Gigabit Ethernet Ports: The NETGEAR Orbi router is fitted with two 10/100/1000 (1 WAN / 1 LAN) Gigabit Ethernet ports. The WAN port is used to connect your Internet modem, while the LAN port is used to connect a local network device. The Orbi satellite are not equipped with Ethernet ports.
Guest Network Access: Separate & secure access for guests. Guest networks create a completely separate WiFi network for your guests' devices, ensuring they do not have access to your home network or to the shared USB hard drive with all your personal data.
Placement: The Orbi router should be positioned near your modem and in the middle of your home, while the satellites are placed in separate locations throughout your home. One of the Orbi satellites must be within range of the Orbi router's WiFi signal. The other Orbi satellite needs to be within range of the Orbi router's or other Orbi satellite's WiFi signal (but not both). At least one Orbi satellite must be within range of the Orbi router. Use the Orbi satellites' LED indicators to help you determine where to place the satellites.
Voice, App, & Security Control

Voice Control: Control your Orbi mesh WiFi network with voice commands using Amazon Alexa & the Google Assistant (devices sold separately). When you enable the Orbi to work with Alexa or Google Assistant, you can use voice commands to configure your router's settings. You can also ask Alexa or Google to send your network credentials to your smartphone or tablet, which makes accessing your credentials more convenient while still keeping your information secure. In addition, you can ask Alexa or Google to enable/disable the guest network and reboot the router.
- Before you enable the Orbi router to work with Alexa or Google, you must download the NETGEAR Orbi app, create a remote access account, and register your router with your remote access account.
- There are two ways to enable the Orbi router to work with Alexa or Google. You can use the command "Alexa, enable the NETGEAR skill," or "Ok Google, talk to NETGEAR," or you can manually link the NETGEAR skill to your Alexa or Google Home app.

Between John C. Reilly's Walk Hard and Russell Brand's Get Him to the Greek, Will Ferrell and Rachel McAdams show that a predictable formula can still make a quality film. In the end, Eurovision has so much heart and charm that its shortcomings are easily forgettable. Make no mistake about it, this is a great film.
From the mouths of legendary band Journey, "Don't Stop Believing." A common theme heavily entrenched in the first act of David Dobkin's Eurovision Song Contest. Lars Erickssong, played by the legend Will Ferrell, dreams of someday winning a spot on his favorite show Eurovision. Unfortunately, Lars is a laughingstock across his small town. Lars is widely considered to be the village idiot of sorts for ignoring the haters and never backing down on his dream.
While it might not be for everyone, there is a campiness about Eurovision Song Contest that I really enjoyed. Rachel McAdams is flat-out adorable and whether you like him or not, Will Ferrell puts in a very Will Ferrell performance. What worked in the film? What didn't? How did the film grade out? Let's take a look.
What Worked:
As it should be, Eurovision is all about Will Ferrell and Rachel McAdams. The chemistry between Ferrell (Lars) and McAdams (Sigrit) is dynamic. This is exemplified greatly during one of the film's best moments during a tender moment between Lars and Sigrit. The two are awkwardly embracing while a boat with all the singers ironically die in a fire (saga) explosion. With Lars and Sigrit as the only group left standing (literally), they have officially accomplished their lifelong dream. A spot on the show singing contest, Eurovision.
The heart of this film is rooted in its soundtrack and luckily, it's absolutely incredible
The songalong scene steals many of the same elements seen from Glee and 2012's Pitch Perfect. While this might be a tired act to some, it's handled so well and with so much love that it's nearly impossible not to jump into the dance circle and let it all loose. The music is so good that the film becomes somewhat disappointing between numbers and the film attempts to take its characters seriously. The music is that good and matches the zaniness of the competition and its competitors.
The film also does an excellent job balancing the comedy and the forbidden romance between Lars and Sigrit. Even further, the film introduces some truly standout side characters. Pierce Brosnan shines as Erick Erickssong. I don't think Brosnan's character spoke more than 10 words during the entire film. Don't be concerned though, the brutal stares from Brosnan towards Ferrell's character speak a thousand words.
Meanwhile, Dan Stevens is hilarious as Alexander Lemtov
Lemtov provides some romantic tension between Lars and Sigrit as a potential love interest. But my surprise casting of the film has to be Graham Norton playing, well Graham Norton as the host. Amazing. The beautiful scenery of Iceland and Scotland also deserves a mention here. The landscapes are as stunning as the soundtrack in this film. If you ever wanted to visit these countries, you will absolutely have your flight booked and bags packed immediately after watching this film.
What Didn't:
If you're looking for in depth story telling or deep character building, obviously there is none to be found here. Anyone watching this film should know exactly what they're in for: an absurdly bizarre musical romp including a soundtrack that shocking features way more bangers than I expected. While this is a very funny film, not all the jokes land. This should all be expected.
It's also a very long film, running at a hefty 123 minutes. Eurovision Song Contest is a film that could have easily been chopped down to 90 minutes. The film really drags between second and third act. The good news? The grand finale is so good that it's quickly forgiven.
Is it worth watching?
As you can see, there are way more positives about this movie than negatives. This is without a doubt a film worth watching. The performances by Will Ferrell and especially Rachel McAdams are noteworthy. Rachel McAdams is the real winner here. She's a star and if you enjoy her as an actor, then this is a must watch. Even if you're not a fan of Will Ferrell, the soundtrack is so good that I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a hilarious movie to watch. This is a feel good movie with a ton of heart and well worth your time.

Welcome to Day 9 since sports ended, I'm going to give you my top sea shanties to get you through quarantine. In Illinois, we'll be under full lockdown quarantine and these upbeat shanties will be getting me through it. If you didn't know, I'm a history nerd and love pirates so here is a list of my favorites that get me through the day.
1. Barrett's Privateers by Stan Rogers
This song is a story of a 23-year-old man who was a part of Barrett's Privateers (not a pirate but I'll take it). It's full of emotion, you can almost hear the anger in his words and it's my favorite at the moment. Also, any song by Stan Rodgers passes.
2. The Mariner's Revenge Song by The Decemberists
Another song with emotion and a good story. This one is about two sailors with bad blood between them, being trapped in the belly of a whale. Slaps as fuck though.
3. Captain Kidd by Nils Brown (From Assassin's Creed IV)
This one is a real sea shanty that tells tales of Captain Kidd, one of the most feared pirates at the time.
4. Spanish Ladies by Charlotte Cumberbirch (from Assassin's Creed IV) OR Sarah Blasko (From Turn)
The Turn version of this song is more ominous and slower so if you want an upbeat one to belt out, listen to Cumberbirch's version.
5. Go Fuck the Queen by The Pirate Charles
If it was 1776, this would be my bop heading into the Revolution.
6. Roll the Old Chariot Along by David Coffin
The Coffin version sounds like you're on a ship and it's echoing down the halls. Very aesthetic.
7. So Early in the Morning by Clayton Kennedy (from Assassin's Creed IV)
Classic shanty, can't leave it out.
8. Randy Dandy-Oh by The Dreadnoughts
Classic as well but this version gets you ready for a fight.
9. Shiloh by The Dreadnoughts
First of all, one of my favorites movies as a kid. Also a great story in the song.
10. Fifteen Men On Deadman's Chest by Salt Sea Pirates
"Yo ho ho, and a bottle of rum" You can't leave that one out.
I have a Spotify playlist that has these songs and more so you can check that out right here. Getting through this quarantine can be rough so just imagine being in a different place completely, even on a pirate ship singing some shanties.

Peter & Rachel's Fantasy Suite Date Isn't Up For Discussion
An essential part of every season of The Bachelorette and The Bachelor is the Fantasy Suite. While the explicit details are obviously never shown (this is an ABC show, after all), it's a big deal because it's pretty much implied that the star has sex with her final choices. With only Peter, Bryan, and Eric left vying for Rachel's heart, and the rumor that all three will be getting a key to the room, fans are asking: do Peter and Rachel have sex in the Fantasy Suite? It's really not anyone's business, aside from the people in question.
As a former final three contender herself, Rachel is more than familiar with how the Fantasy Suite goes. She made it completely clear that she had no intention of having sex with him when cameras were nearby, as she told People.
When it comes to the Fantasy Suite, when I was on Nick [Viall]'s season, I said I wasn't going to do it. One, because I didn't think I'd make it that far — but by the time I got there, my feelings for Nick were strong. I was falling in love with him. For me, that private time was really important to see if what we had was the same on camera as it was off.
Going into this season, Rachel said from the beginning that she didn't see herself getting into intimate with all three final choices.
She recently told to ET Online, "I'm a woman of my word! I just said, I didn't do it with everyone." She added, "It's the first time you have extended time with this person, for me, it's like, if I'm taking the next step, I have a list of questions."
So what does that mean for Peter? In promos for the upcoming episode, she definitely has a lot of questions for him. Rachel and Peter can't seem to agree on what they want out of a relationship. She tells him that she's not just looking for a boyfriend, while he seems to be struggling with finding "common ground" between them. Could their remaining issues mean that Rachel will be reluctant to have sex with him? Maybe, but it's not really anyone's concern but theirs.
Rachel clearly values her connections with the men she's chosen, and since so much of her life has been on camera, it's hard to blame her for wanting to keep this to herself. Whatever happens in the Fantasy Suite is deeply personal, and Rachel can choose to have sex, or not, with whoever she wants.

R2G Digital
Customer story
R2G Digital was founded by ex-Google professionals and aims to help its customers to overcome digital siloes and to grow their presence across multiple channels with a comprehensive, 360-degree plan that covered everything from paid ads to email marketing and deep data analytics. By removing these siloes and facilitating better data sharing, they help businesses to achieve revenue growth through data-driven advertising.
The challenges R2G Digital are facing
The main challenge that R2G Digital was facing was that they needed to set up new cold outreach and LinkedIn lead generation processes to bring in more high quality leads that they could follow up with. As advertising experts themselves, they knew the power of having the right tool for the right job. In this case, they needed a tool that would allow them to boost their LinkedIn lead generation and cold outreach campaigns without taking up too much of their time or costing them a fortune in the process.
Why Zopto?
R2G Digital knows all about strategy and latest lead generation best practices thanks to their existing work with Google advertisements and their proven track record of servicing their clients. They knew exactly what they were looking for when it came to a LinkedIn outreach tool, and Zopto was the one that ticked all of their boxes. It was affordable, customisable and easy to use, with no lengthy training required that would distract their already busy team members from servicing their clients.
R2G Digital's growth and how Zopto plays a role
Zopto takes away much of the heavy lifting, freeing up R2G Digital staff to focus on growing their clients' businesses through the strategic use of paid search techniques on Google. By using Zopto, they were able to quickly and easily create multiple campaigns to target the right people with the right messages at the right time, bringing in leads through LinkedIn at an unprecedented rate. It took what was usually an arduous, time consuming process that required huge amounts of manual work and allowed them to automate it and to deploy cold outreach campaigns at scale.

Portal keeps you in the loop
We have launched our 365 Hub!
Our service delivery team has been busy developing the new portal designed to support our customers and keep everyone in the loop.
Built using Microsoft Dynamics 365, it provides a unified, proactive and seamless service. We can instantly see customer's queries and they can stay up to date on what we are doing to help – from anywhere and in real time.
It's part of our drive to enhance the experience of working with us. Our 365 Hub is linked directly to an analyst who has access to information immediately.
Customers create cases, track their progress and update information, as well as receiving email notifications alerting them to updates. They can glean much more information, more quickly.
Amanda Castledine, our service delivery manager at Reflex Data, has been leading on 365 Hub's development.
"We have listened to our customers and believe this centralization of contact will bring major benefits all round, with dramatically increased visibility," she says. "The support element of 365 Hub is just the beginning as we have plans to add other areas of business to it as we progress, such as a knowledge center, billing and quotes.
"Invitations to join 365 Hub are sent to key users within a customer's organization and they will all be logging into the same place. This means that they will be able to see the questions being raised by their colleagues, share information and collaborate.
"It will assist Reflex Data staff to respond more quickly and effectively because we will have a much broader view of a customer's day-to-day challenges."
Steve Jones, Reflex Data's chief customer officer, said: "We are investing in this customer-centric portal to provide users with the self-serve functionality now expected within the industry.
It demonstrates our commitment to improving our customers' experience of working with us and our focus on contributing to their success."
Some key points:
- When a case is created, it is placed directly into an analyst's queue
- Updates to and from the user and analyst are available in real time
- There are two types of user: A super user can see and update all organizations' case and a standard user has access to his/her own cases only
- Customers can export information to Microsoft Excel for analysis

How 'Life' Really Could Be a 'Venom' Prequel and Why the Film's First Kill Is So Shocking (Spoilers!)
Warning: Major, major spoilers ahead!
A fan theory that sprouted on Reddit last week posited that Sony's new sci-fi thriller Life might possibly be a secret Spider-Man movie about longtime Peter Parker villain Venom. It was clever on a number of levels, beyond the fact that the awesomely named Redditor "Toomuchsoul" was astute enough to realize that the film's final trailer had lifted footage directly from Spider-Man 3 — the movie that first brought in Venom's human host, Eddie Brock (Topher Grace).
It quickly led to all sorts of speculation, namely: "What if Life is actually a symbiote/Venom origin story?" Then BOOM, the very same week, Sony "randomly" announces a Venom movie will be in theaters next year, while, of course, the latest webslinger reboot Spider-Man: Homecoming gears up for release this July.
The announcement further fueled the rumor, and this generally wasn't even taking into account that the screenwriting tandem behind Life, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick (who last collaborated on Deadpool), were previously set to pen a Venom movie back in 2013.
All in all, it made for one of the most intriguing fan theories to hit the web in eons, and it came from someone who hadn't even seen the film. And… well, now that we've all seen the film (or at least we hope you have if you're reading this spoilerific article… last chance to exit before we start revealing everything), the theory conceivably still — for the most part — holds up.
As we see at the end of Life, the hostile extraterrestrial that Ryan Reynolds, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Co. battle high above the clouds does indeed make it down to Earth. The scenario plays out via a nifty twist: We watch two vessels speed away from the international space station where the film's battle takes place. The vessel harboring Miranda North (Rebecca Ferguson), we think, is returning her to Earth, while the one with David Jordan (Gyllenhaal), in the spirit of Bruce Willis vs. the Armageddon, is on a one-way trip to outer-space obliteration.
It's implied that the sentient (or "Calvin," as he's known), outsmarts both surviving humans, and he rides Gyllenhaal's face to safe landing in a remote fishing locale. In our final glimpse at him, it sure as heck looks like he's bonding with his host. If this is indeed Venom, who in the comics hails not from Mars but the planet Klyntar, he's ready to roll come Homecoming and beyond.
There's also the growth and look of Calvin. He begins as a microscopic organism, and grows exponentially in Venom's trademark gooiness throughout the course of the film as he feasts on 6 Little Astronauts. And he's a pinkish-purple hue, which calls to mind more recent visualizations of him, like Mike Mayhew's dark purple print of him from 2007.
When Yahoo Movies touched base with Wernick and Reese during the film's press junket in Austin, they were impressed by the connection… and actually paid it some compliments. "It's a darn good theory!" Wernick admitted. "Quite honestly, it could reasonably be a prequel. Like if that is the Symbiote right there, it ends up in the water, it attaches to Eddie Brock. And it's off for the running. It's not that far-fetched. What's on screen right now could reasonably be considered a prequel to Venom.
Of course, there are also plenty of arguments working against the theory. Like, if Sony had a Spider-Man property on its hands, why not play up the Marvel connection and watch all those greenbacks roll in?
As for the trailer's Spider-Man 3 footage, Reese and Wernick pointed out that the practice of borrowing visuals from one movie to place in another's ads is actually pretty common in the marketing realm. "They thought they could get away with it and they got nabbed," Wernick said. "But then Spider-Man 3 made somebody think of Venom and the next thing you know we've got ourselves a rumor."
Also, while Calvin indeed turns into a nasty, bloodthirsty SOB worthy of comparisons to Venom Jr., he's not exactly a symbiote in the same sense as Venom. He does enjoy a good mouth-dive, sure, but he's not co-opting bodies, or Life would be an entirely different movie.
And then there's the Ryan Reynolds connection. We've seen other actors pull double duty in the wider Marvel universe (Chris Evans in Fantastic Four and the Avengers films; Michael B. Jordan in the Four reboot and the upcoming Black Panther). And if you look back at the comics, guess who the Symbiote's first human host was? Deadpool. But it's hard to imagine Reynolds being both Deadpool and… dead.
And that brings us to his glorious demise in Life, which is easily the film's best moment. Not only is it surprising to see the film's biggest name be the first to meet his maker, it's a shocking, visually stunning portrayal of bloodletting in zero gravity as Calvin literally squeezes the life out of him. "That was our favorite scene in the movie to write, because from the moment that thing grabs his hand to the second it gets out through the sprinkler system, it's like 14 straight pages of 'What the f–k?,'" Reese explained. "It starts to move like a freight train, and the movie doesn't really stop after that."
Reynolds was initially set to play Gyllenhaal's role of David Jordan (further muddying the Venom theory), but due to timing had to take the smaller part. The actor was excited to bite it, according to the writers. "He totally embraced it," Reese said. "And I think he does a phenomenal job. The look on his face when the alien is inside his body is so haunting. I can almost not even think of it, it just disturbs me, even though we wrote it and we saw the set they shot it on. It just really, really disturbs me, thanks to his performance."
And the writers were excited to kill him. "We spent all of Deadpool 1 trying to kill Wade Wilson and he's immortal, you can't kill him," Wernick joked. "So our first opportunity to stop Ryan's heart from beating, we jumped at."
Life is now in theaters.

"We do not remember days, we remember moments." Cesare Pavese
Nearly seven months into his wait for a kidney and pancreas transplant, Brian underwent the procedure that would cure both type 1 diabetes, which he had lived with for 38 years, and kidney failure caused by diabetes complications. Immediately after transplant, Brian was in awe - he never knew feeling so good was an option.
Thanks to an organ donor, Brian feels chapters have been added to the story of his life and he is able to achieve dreams he never thought possible; like purchasing his first house with his wife, Martie, or enjoying the simple pleasures in life, such as the occasional Krispy Kreme doughnut - something he was unable to have for years prior for fear of going into a diabetic coma. He maintains a healthy lifestyle and doesn't overdo it with Krispy Kreme, but there is satisfaction in simply knowing he can have one once in a while.
Today, Brian celebrates his 7th transplant anniversary. In the last 7 years he has celebrated a 5th wedding anniversary with Martie and renewed his vows in the Bahamas,walked on the beach with his mother, enjoyed an out-of-cage shark dive, enjoyed countless joy rides with Martie in their jeep and continues his love of skydiving.
Brian speaks of his donor family with many emotions saying, "Someone decided to turn a loss into a legacy during their unimaginable grief. I was so sick, I never knew if I would have the time to accomplish my dreams. Thankfully, because of my donor, I have had time to build a home, time to have adventures, and time to dream about what's to come."

I feel better now than I did when I came home earlier. I got a chance to actually sit down and pray and spend some time with me and God. It is amazing how much that helps. I was talking to a friend earlier today who said "we are always shocked when God answers prayers, you would think we shouldn't be because we have faith in him." I said, "Just because we know a rose is pretty doesn't mean we shouldn't stop to look at it." Sometimes when it comes to me and God, I forget who he is. Well, I know who he is. I never stop believing in him or anything, but I forget the experience of him. That is when I have to stop again and sit at his feet and worship and simply be amazed by his greatness all over again.

New England Venture Summit to Showcase Matrix-Bio
Matrix-Bio, Inc. is a featured startup company at the 8th annual New England Venture Summit on December 11 at the Hilton Boston Dedham. The cancer monitoring test uses the company's VeraMarker™ metabolite profiling technology platform to detect the recurrence of cancer months and even years earlier than current diagnostics tests.
Sponsored by Young Startup Ventures, the 8th annual New England Venture Summit is the premier industry gathering connecting venture capitalists, angel investors, technology transfer professionals, senior executives of early stage and emerging growth companies, university researchers, and business incubators. The Summit attracts more than 500 attendees seeking investment opportunities and funding.
Matrix-Bio heads into the New England Venture Summit with substantial early stage success. In February, Matrix-Bio signed a global licensing agreement with Quest Diagnostics for the development of a clinical lab-developed blood test using metabolite profiling to detect breast cancer recurrence (BCR). A commercial launch of the BCR test is anticipated in early 2015.
Colon cancer is the most preventable, yet least prevented cancer. It also has a high rate of reccurrence. As part of his pitch, Matrix-Bio CEO Eric Beier will explain how the company's VeraMarker™ metabolite profiling technology platform identifies the unique metabolite signature of cancer cells in blood serum samples, supporting early, more accurate cancer detection. Matrix-Bio is developing a suite of colon cancer tests, initially focusing on recurrence monitoring. The market for colon cancer monitoring tests is significant: three million CEA tests (the current test which often yields false positives or detects cancer recurrence late) are performed each year with an estimated total market of $450 million.
Matrix-Bio has licensed additional metabolite biomarker technology from the Purdue Research Foundation to evaluate the commercial potential of diagnostic tests for colon, esophageal, liver and pancreatic cancer; liver cancer in hepatitis C patients; and predicting preoperative chemotherapy effectiveness for breast cancer treatment.

According to reports, at least one person was killed and five others injured in Johannesburg on Sunday, after security forces clashed with looters in the latest outbreak of xenophobic violence.
South Africa's biggest city and other areas were hit by a surge of attacks against businesses owned by foreigners in the last week, leaving at least 10 people dead and prompting protests from several African countries.
According to the reports emanating from the police force, riot police who were on ground fired stun grenades and rubber bullets on Sunday to break up crowds targeting shops in the city's Central Business District (CBD).

According to reports, five more people were left injured, Captain Kay Makhubele, a national police force official, told eNCA news.

The president of the High Court has fixed next Wednesday to hear an "urgent" application by the Law Society for orders freezing personal accounts of suspended solicitor Declan O'Callaghan and of his former practice below €1.062m.
Orders will also be sought to freeze accounts of, and effectively wind up, the former practice, Kilraine O'Callaghan, at Pound Street, Ballaghaderreen, Co Roscommon.
On Friday, Mr Justice Peter Kelly was due to deal with the Society's application to join Aoife and Eimear O'Callaghan, solicitors and daughters of Mr O'Callaghan, as co-respondents in relation to the orders sought concerning the practice. They oppose that application.
The Society has stressed no dishonesty is being alleged against the daughters and it is not contending the deficit on the client account of the practice is attributable to them.
The Society is alleging dishonesty against Mr O'Callaghan himself and fears the client account deficit may exceed €730,000.
On Friday, Nessa Bird, for the Society, said, because the daughters became partners in Kilraine O'Callaghan last month, it is necessary to join them as co-respondents to the Society's "serious and urgent" application.
Ms Bird said, before the daughters became partners, the Society's Regulation of Practice Committee had told them freezing orders may be sought over the practice and they were strongly advised to get independent legal representation.
The daughters were represented in court on Friday by solicitor Sean Sexton who got time to file replying affidavits.
Mr Sexton said he wanted to stress there is no imputation of dishonesty or wrongdoing against his clients and they had had to become partners in the firm to ensure it would have insurance.
Earlier on Friday, Mr Justice Kelly told the sides he had received certain documents from the High Court probate officer and was giving those to the sides to consider.
Having read the documents, Ms Bird said she was "alarmed" as they appeared to amount to contempt of orders made by the court last July suspending Mr O'Callaghan from practising and having any involvement with Kilraine O'Callaghan.
Her concerns included Mr O'Callaghan was described on documents filed last month by Kilraine O'Callaghan as a retired solicitor when he is a solicitor prohibited from practising.
Gabriel Gavigan SC, for Mr O'Callaghan, said his client disputed any contempt and wished to give evidence immediately explaining the situation.
In evidence, Mr O'Callaghan said the probate matter dated back to 2016 when he agreed to act for a widow under a power of attorney in relation to seeking a grant of probate for the relevant estate. The probate office had since sought other documents and they were provided last month by Kilraine O'Callaghan.
It was in his capacity as attorney, not solicitor, he signed documents in his home then filed by Kilraine O'Callaghan. He had not breached the July orders, he said.
In reply to the judge, he agreed the description of him in the documents as a retired solicitor was "not the most accurate". He said it was put in that way to show he was not practising and agreed he should have given a "more accurate" description but said he did not intend to deceive anyone.
The judge allowed the Law Society time to consider whether to proceed with an application for contempt of the July court orders.
'Skirting around'
After lunch, Ms Bird said, while the Society remained "deeply dissatisfied" with issues arising from the probate matter, it was conscious of the high threshold for contempt and was not proceeding with a contempt application.
The Society feels Mr O'Callaghan has made a "material misrepresentation" to the probate office by describing himself as a retired solicitor when, as a solicitor and officer of the court, he must have known that was not accurate, she said.
The Society also considered he was "skirting around" the order restraining any involvement with his former practice.
This matter underlined the need for the Society to seek the freezing and other orders, she added.
Mr Justice Kelly said the probate office had "quite rightly" raised concerns and said he would observe evidence in the witness box or via affidavit is sworn testimony. Mr O'Callaghan had admitted in evidence a "retired" solicitor was "not the most accurate" description of himself when his actual status is suspended solicitor, he noted.
Because the Society is not proceeding further with that matter, he would "say no more", the judge said.

These photographs of me
were taken when I was 21 years old.
They were shot on Plus X with
a 105-millimeter lens on an Nikon F-2,
developed normal,
two stops overexposed.
I like this one a lot.
The F-2 was lost forever to a pawn shop
in Los Angeles four years ago.
The photographer lived
in San Francisco up until last week.
He was the worst man
I ever met.
Or maybe the best.
I'm still not sure.
If you're supposed to
learn from your mistakes,
then he was the best mistake
I ever made.
He was my most spectacular
and cherished fuckup,
and I was his Guinevere,
whatever that means.
## Tell me ##
## Why you keep foolin'
little coquette ##
## Makin' fun of the world ##
Harper, you look wonderful.
- Isn't your sister a beautiful bride?
- She really is.
Now, did I hear correctly?
Harvard law in the fall?
- That's right, yeah.
- We have to talk. I'm an alum, you know.
Harper, congrats.
Our John's
in law school there.
- Hey, weren't you engaged toJeremy?
- ## Someday ##
- ## You'll fall in love
like I fell in love with you ##
- You were, weren't you?
## Will just be foolin' ##
## And when
you're all alone ##
## With only regrets ##
## You'll find, little coquette ##
## I love you ##
- Sorry.
- That's all right.
anytime soon?
I'm not hiding.
Your father and sister
have been upstairs forever.
- I cannot believe they'd pull
this Oedipal crap today.
- What do you want me to do?
We have 300
f***ing guests here.
Just tell them to knock off the Greek
tragedy and get their asses down here.
And I can't find the photographer.
Find them.
Could you knock?
I did.
Mom is freaking out down there.
Is she crying?
No, she feels fat.
Sue, you're not fat.
What's so funny?
It's nothing.
- It's nothing.
I told them no one goes to Paris
in August. Everything's closed.
But they're young and dumb. They don't
care about the Musee Picasso anyway.
Excuse me.
Excuse me. Have you seen
the wedding photographer?
H-Have you seen
the wedding photographer?
- Sorry. Canape?
- Thank you.
Damn it.
F*** you. F*** you. It's my life.
F*** you. F*** you.
I don't care.
- F*** you --
- I know that song.
Ever try singing it
really loud?
You should do it sometime.
Opens up all kinds
of possibilities.
Having trouble
with that?
- My thumbs are too small.
- Let me see.
There you go, Guinevere.
My name's Harper.
I'm Connie.
That's tricky
with champagne.
Maybe you'd, uh,
prefer a little of this?
I'm usually
not much of a drinker.
No, neither am I.
the wedding photographer.
Today I'm
a wedding photographer.
It's a transformation that only seems
to occur when the rent is due.
Suddenly I find myself
wearing a secondhand tux,
surrounded by women
in chiffon.
maybe -- maybe
this sounds rude --
- Would it be possible for you
not to take my picture?
- Why?
I don't like
to be looked at.
It's a little late
for that.
Good. Mrs. Sloane, could I ask you
to move in slightly, please? Thank you.
Bride, turn your body
slightly in for me.
Mm-hmm. A little more.
That's great.
And can I ask the bridesmaid
to move to her right?
A little more.
Another inch.
- Looking this way.-
Come on, smile.
One more.
- Here we go.
Fine, I'll stop
screaming.Just say something!
I've been talking to you for hours!
You're not talking!
That's the point!
- You're breaking f***ing plates!
- I don't understand!
- You don't listen.
