With Africa increasingly attracting investors and progressively becoming a business hub, it’s clear that the continent is ripe with opportunities. No one understands this better than the countless African entrepreneurs starting small businesses everyday, playing their role in transforming the economic narrative of the continent.
But what would a continent’s economic landscape be without its source of business knowledge and breeding ground for entrepreneurs? Business schools not only help nurture tomorrow’s business leaders but also work with companies, helping them take advantage of emerging opportunities and tackle challenges. The following are a select few of the numerous leading business schools in Africa.
The school was established in 1991, starting out as a small institution called the Centre for Professional Communications. At the time, it only offered management courses relevant to the Nigerian business environment, but the school has since grown to provide academic programmes and executive programmes. It added the full-time MBA programme in 2003 with the aim of developing professionals with practical management knowledge relevant to the global business environment.
Ever since its establishment, the school has crafted a solid reputation based on the quality of its learning, its ability to recruit high-quality staff and students, and create valuable international partnerships. It should come as no surprise then that the institution is regarded as the leading business school in West Africa, having been ranked among the best in the world by the Financial Times for the tenth year in a row since 2007.
Is this the best business school in Africa? Yes – according to the UK’s leading financial publication, the Financial Times. The school has featured almost every year on the publication’s annual list of leading business schools in the world for customised executive education programmes. The 2016 rankings place the Gordon Institute of Business Science within the top 50 in the world, making it the best not only in South Africa but on the whole continent.
Founded in 2000, the institution offers open programmes for individuals and custom programmes for organisations, with courses such as internationally accredited MBA programmes, Doctorate in Business Administration, Post-graduate Diploma in Business Administration, and a wide range of executive and academic courses.
Formerly known as the School of Business Economics and Communications, the American University in Cairo School of Business got its new name in 2009 with the aim to create an environment that nurtures innovative business leaders and entrepreneurs.
In 2013, the institution became the first business school in North Africa to feature on the yearly Financial Times’ list of top institutions in open enrolment and executive education, successfully positioning itself as one of the best in the world. The institution made the prestigious list again in 2016 – a clear sign of its strengthening position on the global map.
Despite education in the North African region having been deeply disrupted by the Arab uprisings, which swept through the region between 2010 and 2012, the American University in Cairo School of Business is one of the Egyptian institutions that managed to quickly pick up the pieces. The school has built a reputation for teaching executive programmes and entrepreneurship, particularly in the technology sector.
This is one of the continent’s highly-rated business schools. It is located on the main campus of The University of Dar es Salaam, the oldest and largest public university in Tanzania. The school started in 1961 as an affiliate college of the University of London. In 2008, the University of Dar es Salaam transformed its Faculty of Commerce and Management to give rise to what is today known as the University of Dar es Salaam Business School.
UDBS’s quality of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes as well as extensive training and consultancy courses in business, entrepreneurship, and management, earns the school its reputation as one of the leading institutions in business and management research in the Sub-Saharan region. The institution’s four departments include Accounting, Finance, Marketing, and General Management.
The school started off in the 1960s as Nakawa College of Business Studies, offering business and management diplomas. In 1997, the college merged with Makerere University’s Faculty of Commerce, forming what is today known as Makerere University Business School.
The institution excels in business and management teaching and research, which explains why it’s viewed as the benchmark for Business and Management education in East Africa. Its faculties include the Faculty of Commerce, Faculty of Management, as well as the Faculty of Computing and Business Science. The school also has the Faculty of Marketing and Hospitality Management.
Wits Business School has for several years featured in various international rankings as one of the top business institutions in the world. It has rubbed shoulders with the best of the best in prestigious rankings such as the Times Higher Education Alma Mater Index and the BRICS & Emerging Economies Top 100 Ranking.
Established in 1968, the institution is based in Johannesburg, Africa’s economic hub. The school offers an array of executive programmes, including a Senior Executive Programme run in partnership with Harvard Business School, an MBA and other Master’s business degree courses, as well as variety of short courses. Wits Business School is also known for its design of programmes for companies, whereby it partners with organisations to come up with a solution to address the company’s business challenges or how to grow the business.
Strathmore Business School is one of the most sought-after on the continent, thanks to its solid reputation and academic prestige. But the institution excels in areas beyond academia – it influences leadership in Kenya’s private and public sectors. Apart from its development of international executive business management and leadership programmes, the school contributes towards the development of small businesses in Kenya. It recently took a group of small and medium business owners to China on a 10-day educational trip, with the aim of exposing them to new business practices and experiences. Launched in 2005, the school offers MBA and other postgraduate programmess, as well as executive education programmes.
One can’t talk about top business institutions in Africa without mentioning Morocco’s HEM [Institut des Hautes études de management] Business School. Founded in 1988, HEM is one of the largest private business schools in the North African country. It’s home to more than 2,000 students spread across its campuses in Rabat, Casablanca, Marrakech, Fez, and Tangier.
The school offers various master’s degrees and an MBA, with specialisations in Business Finance, Marketing, Accounting Control Audit, and Industrial Management. HEM has been attracting a slew of investors over the years. Its biggest to date is the World Bank affiliate, the International Finance Corporation, which invested US $7 million in 2013.
With a multitude of students from neighbouring countries enrolling at the United States International University-Africa Business School every year, the school enjoys its status as one of the continent’s finest. The institution is the oldest private university in Kenya, having been founded in 1969. It initially started as the Nairobi Campus of United States International University and became a separate university in 1999, under its new name The United States International University-Africa.

Enjoy snack time again with our delicious recipe for gluten free crackers!
Most store-bought crackers are a no-no for people on a gluten free diet, but this gluten free copycat recipe is here to rescue you from snack boredom. These Buttery Ritz Crackers deserve a spot on your gluten free snacks list. Top these gluten free crackers with your favorite cheese or some peanut butter to make a great snack. They are sure to become a favorite of yours and your kids. Make these crackers when you have some extra time during the weekend and then snack on them throughout the week. We promise that everyone is going to be raving over these homemade gluten free crackers.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cut four tablespoons of the butter into small cubes and place in the freezer while gathering and measuring the rest of the ingredients. Place the remaining butter into a small microwaveable bowl and set aside.
In a food processor, combine the flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, sugar, paprika, and half of the salt. Add the frozen butter cubes and pulse until the mixture is the size of peas. This could also be done in a large bowl using a pastry blender. Add the vegetable oil and pulse, then add the cold water by tablespoons until the mixture just begins to come together. The entire 1/2 cup may not be needed.
Remove the dough, form into a flat disc, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.
Place the dough on a piece of parchment paper and lay another piece of parchment on top, then roll with a rolling pin to 1/8-inch thickness. Put this rolled dough into the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes before proceeding.
Peel off the top sheet of the parchment paper and use a small round cookie cutter (about 1 1/2-inch size) to cut out circles. Lay them on the parchment-lined cookie sheets, leaving a small space between each. Don't worry about spacing because they will not spread as they bake.
Poke a few holes in each circle with the tip of a toothpick and bake about 10 minutes. They will be very lightly browned. The timing will depend on the size of the cookie cutter used.
Melt the reserved butter in the microwave and when the crackers come out of the oven, brush them with the butter and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.
These Buttery Ritz Crackers are a fantastic recipe for gluten free crackers. Ritz crackers are such a versatile and yummy snack that they've become a staple in pantries everywhere. First introduced in 1934 by Nabisco, they took the world by storm as the lightest and most buttery cracker. 5 million Ritz crackers were sold in 1935, which equaled at least 40 crackers for every man, woman, and child in the United States. That's a lot of crackers!
As you may have assumed, the crunchy crackers got their name from the Ritz Carlton Hotel. The initials are even the same for the crackers and the hotel (R.C.). Since the cracker gained traction during The Great Depression, enjoying the crackers conjured up images of luxury while being affordable to most Americans at just 19 cents a box.
Also, if you've ever wondered if the holes on the cracker have any significance, the short answer is no, they do not. They are simply poked with holes in order to bake evenly.
What a fabulous idea! I LOVE Ritz crackers, and the idea of making a homemade version sounds ideal!
These look fantastic. I'd love to eat them with some sharp cheddar cheese on top!
While they weren't crispy or crunchy like I'd expect crackers to be, they were pretty good. They had a warm flavor to them, thanks to the paprika, which I really enjoyed. I had them with a bit of cheese spread on top and it was a pretty good snack.
These were tasty and filling, and they had a nice cheesy flavor. They were just a bit too salty for me.
I can definitely taste the paprika and that was actually a nice addition. These crackers were really soft though, so it would be hard to spread anything on them. I would bake them longer to make them more crispy.
Buttery is not the word I would use to describe these, and they don't taste quite like Ritz, but they were good enough. Next time I will roll them out thinner and so that they get crispier in the oven.
I'm gluten and I even want to try these! They would go wonderfully with a nice cheese or vegetable dip!
Love this recipe! It looks so easy to make.

Vatican distances itself from former envoy's comments; Chief Rabbinate: Relations never better.
The Vatican has distanced itself from comments made by its former ambassador to Israel, who last week charged the Knesset with lacking the political will to make the hard political decisions necessary if it means to honor Israel's international commitments. Archbishop Pietro Sambi accused Israel of dragging its heels over implementing the terms of the 1993 treaty that established diplomatic relations between the Holy See and the Jewish state. However, the Vatican quickly distanced itself from the comments, saying they were the archbishop's personal views, not church policy. While the archbishop's comments are not likely to harm Catholic-Israeli relations in the long term - an official with the Chief Rabbinate's office told The Jerusalem Post relations have never been better - they underscore the tension within the Catholic Church over its Israel policy. Pope Benedict XVI is an avowed advocate of closer political relations with Israel and theological dialogue with Judaism. However, his views are not held by all within the Roman Catholic Church's hierarchy. In an interview published on the Italian Catholic Web site Terrasanta.net on November 16, Sambi, who served as the Church's nuncio (ambassador) to Israel from 1998 to 2005, said Catholic relations with Israel were at a low ebb, and had even been "better when there were not diplomatic relations." The Vatican had established relations with Israel as an "act of faith," with the belief that the "concrete aspects" of the concordat would be settled over time, he said. However, he said, this trust in Israel had been misguided. Ten years after Israel and the Vatican signed a treaty dealing with resolving disputes over taxation of church property, restitution for "unjustly seized" land, and "equal compensation" for work performed by Catholic social service agencies, the Israeli government had done nothing to implement the reforms, Sambi said. "Since the Fundamental and Legal Personality Agreements [of 1997] have been signed, they are internationally valid. But not in Israel, because Israeli law requires that any international agreement be approved by the Knesset for it to come into force on Israeli territory. And so far, no one has bothered to get the Knesset's approval," he said. "After 10 years of negotiations, the economic agreement has not yet been signed, undercut by delays and the Israeli delegation's limited power to negotiate, weakened, that is, by a lack of political will. Everyone can see how much faith can be placed in Israel's promises!" The Vatican moved quickly to minimize the diplomatic damage caused by Sambi's gaffe after Oded Ben-Hur, Israel's ambassador to the Vatican, asked for an explanation on Friday. Vatican Press Office director Fr. Federico Lombardi responded that the Archbishop's comments reflected "his opinions and his personal lived experience during the years of his service as apostolic delegate to Jerusalem and as nuncio to Israel." "The Holy See confirms, for its part, support - already expressed on the occasion of the recent visit of President Peres to the Holy Father - 'for a rapid conclusion of the important ongoing negotiations' and for a solution of common agreement for the existing problems," the Vatican said in a statement posted on the press office's Web site on November 19. Sambi's remarks also have contradicted recent public and private statements by Israeli and Vatican officials. Peres's September 6 visit to Pope Benedict XVI was considered a great success by Vatican insiders, while on August 16, Ben-Hur told the Catholic News Service that "officially and institutionally, relations are constantly improving" between Israel and the Vatican.

Have noticed that it gets harder to make decisions toward the end of the day? You’re too tired to figure out what to have for dinner or what to watch on TV. That’s because we all have a finite amount of decisions that we can make on any given day.
Chances are you already have a morning routine. You get up, you get your coffee, read the paper or check your email/scroll through social media, and fix some breakfast before heading into the shower. Let’s expand on that. If you create a “uniform” for yourself, you don’t even have to think about what to wear. You just grab a pair of pants and a shirt, or a skirt, tights and sweater and off you. If you’re like me, deciding what to wear in the morning can take 15-20 minutes.
If you don’t have a morning routine or want to make it over, join me in the Makeover Your Morning Challenge. You can sign up using the button below.
Try to implement some routines into your workday wherever possible. Meal planning helps you figure out what meals to fix and eat. I meal plan on Sundays so that all I have to do is grab my lunch out the fridge and pack it into my bag. A cleaning schedule will help you stay on track with your household chores without you having to spend any valuable decision-making skills in the process.
Wrap your day up with a bedtime routine that not only helps when you’re too tired to make smart choices, it also helps you fall asleep more easily. What works for a toddler, works for you as well.
Start by doing a few chores that will make the next morning easier. Making sure the kitchen is clean and the kids’ school things are in order are great examples. Come up with a few calming things that help you slow down and get ready for sleep. Read a book, listen to some music or wind down with a cup of herbal tea. Looking to remake your nighttime routine? No worries, I have a challenge coming soon.
Sit down with a pen and piece of paper and think about what parts of your day and week you can turn into routines. Write down and create daily to-do lists for yourself until you’ve established these new habits and routines. This may sound like a lot of work, but trust me, once these things become routine, life will get easier.

Odilia and her four sisters rival Odysseus in cleverness and courage as they embark on their own hero’s journey. After finding a drowned man floating in their secret swimming hole along the Rio Grande, the five sisters set out to El Sacrificio in Coahuila, Mexico. Their trek across the border, to return the body of a man they believe to be a loving husband and father to his family, is disappointing. However, their disenchantment is nothing compared to the heartbreak and troubles they endure as they try to get back.

The busiest short-story writers in Australia are working in speculative fiction, a mixture of dark fantasy, science and other unsettling stuff. They are also some of the best, although largely ignored by the major local publishers. Biancotti has won various awards and been commended in international listings. She is working in the Zeitgeist of The Road and Steven Amsterdam – the apocalypse and afterwards – but at much shorter length. There are 21 short stories here. Most have the germ of a novel within them. A robot dog rusts in a decaying royal palace, but sticks to his duty. A girl slips into the interstices of Sydney. Thugs tussle over black market electricity. What Biancotti will do with more space, and a novel framework, remains to be seen. But the stories are succinct and powerful. Best ordered online, as the publisher is a micropress.
Similarly, I have been trying to outwit the gods.
But, no more! People are worried the strategy will work too well & I’ll jinx myself & the gods will forget entirely to honour me. Henceforth I’m throwing away the pessimsim & working hard on proving that my novel is a charming, beautiful, honourable baby. I shall call it BROKEN, not because it *is* broken, but because that’s part of its real name, that’s what it’s about, a novel about being broken and living anyhow. A novel about shards of consciousness and subconsciousness and about how we shape the world with those.
Also, I am still getting my perverse delight from calling it BROKEN.

If you have been rather overdoing the whole avocado thing in the last few years, then you will be relieved to read that in Noor, Paco Morales’ new restaurant in Cordoba – open from March 17 – they are strictly off the menu. And not just avocados: there are no tomatoes, potatoes or peppers either. Hell, there’s not even any chocolate. This all sounded a bit odd to me at first, but it all made sense after I had a chat with Paco Morales at the Madrid Fusión gastronomic conference earlier this year.
He explained that Noor – which means ‘light’ in Arabic – is inspired by Al Andalus (the period of Muslim rule in Spain from the beginning of the eighth to the end of the 15th century). Morales is concentrating on the 10th century, the period of the Umayyad Caliphate of Cordoba, when the city was at the height of its splendour and was one of the most advanced places in the world.
Morales, who will be 35 this year, was awarded a Michelin star when he ran the restaurant at the Hotel Ferrero in Bocairent in the province of Valencia and was also named Best Young Chef in Spain. He did several stints with Andoni Luis Aduriz at Mugaritz in the Basque Country and also spent a season with Ferran Adrià at elBulli in Catalunya. He now oversees Al Trapo, the restaurant at the De Las Letras hotel in Madrid, the Torralbenc hotel in Menorca and the Alacena restaurant in Rio de Janeiro.
Morales has been researching this rich heritage with the help of renowned gastronomic historian and consultant Rosa Tovar and other experts.
The wine list – yes, there is one – features bottles from all around the Mediterranean, including some unusual choices from Egypt, Morocco and the Lebanon. There are local wines too, from Montilla-Morales in the province of Cordoba, and a range of interesting sherries, which I suspect will pair very well with some of the dishes on the menu. There are also offers quite a few intriguing non-alcoholic cocktails and teas.
Noor has three menus to choose from (€70, €90 & €130) and has only eight tables – so book well ahead if you fancy going. It’s a pretty good excuse for a jaunt to Cordoba, if you ask me, and an excellent way to slip into the exotic mood of this sensual city.
Hi Cheryl – this isn’t the restaurant website, which is noorrestaurant.es. They’re open Wed-Sat for lunch I think.

Even as the Middle East plunged deeper into the maelstrom of fear, hatred, violence and despair, recent diplomatic developments, ironically, made the conditions for achieving peace tantalizingly real. Most notable, there was the declaration by the Arab nations meeting in Beirut of their willingness to recognize Israel, after fifty years of denial of its right to exist.
Predictably brushing aside the Arab vision, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon revved up his tanks for a military solution, declaring a “state of war” with the Palestinians and invading the West Bank. Their nation, he told Israelis, is “at a crossroads.” So it is. The road down which Sharon is taking them, with a green light from the Bush Administration, leads to more deaths, more brutalizing of civilians, more violations of human rights–and answering violence and anger by the Palestinians, with more suicide bombers making barbarous war on Israeli civilians.
The other road, the road to peace, leads toward the goal, articulated anew in Beirut, of a complete Israeli withdrawal from the West Bank and Gaza, making way for a Palestinian state with its capital in East Jerusalem, in return for normalization of relations with the Arab states.
At Beirut, in another step for regional peace, the Arab nations brokered Iraq’s recognition of Kuwait’s sovereignty, called for an end to UN sanctions, for dialogue between Baghdad and the UN and for the elimination of weapons of mass destruction in the region. Most significant, they expressed united opposition to US military action against Iraq. This move undercut the Bush Administration’s political rationale for attacking Iraq and in effect denied it the regional bases and logistical support essential to success in such a war.
Faced with those impediments, the Administration put its Iraq plans on hold and turned to the crisis in the Middle East. But Bush seems more concerned with maintaining the domestic political momentum of his war on terror (just as Sharon is driven by the harder-line challenge on his right from Benjamin Netanyahu) than he is with making the tough political choices that would lead to a just settlement.
Bush still could choose the road to peace, whether or not Sharon takes that same road. He could reaffirm the US commitment to the March 12 UN resolution calling for a two-state solution, adopt the Arab peace scheme as a vision that could give Palestinians hope of an independent state, re-endorse the recent Security Council resolution calling for Sharon’s withdrawal from Palestinian cities and dispatch the Secretary of State to the region with a plan that guarantees Israel’s security, calls for abandonment of Israeli settlements and the withdrawal of Israel to 1967 borders–a plan backed up by firm promises of monitors and the material and financial resources necessary to make it work.
Does Bush have the courage to take that road–to risk the prestige of his Administration and the resources of the United States in the cause of achieving a just peace? The State Department mildly criticized Sharon’s incursion, but Bush seems to be giving Sharon free rein. The only hope is for the thus-far-small opposition in this country to build pressure on him and make clear that Sharon’s way condemns both Israelis and Palestinians to more suffering and bloodshed. We in America must add our voices to the burgeoning protests in the Middle East, Europe and Asia and to the eloquent warnings voiced by UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, Pope John Paul II and other world leaders. Only a US-led third-party intervention can forge a settlement that will end the violence.

Falling ill is not always that bad, so long as you don’t catch anything nasty. Specially, if you are regularly working hard and are hardly ever with free time to do what you would otherwise do on an ideal day off. There is always “something” to keep you occupied and away from what you want to do.
So, today was that day for me. I’ve been feeling ill all throughout the day but it isn’t fever or anything. Seems some internal tiring or exhaustion, I cannot say.
Anyway, I spent most of the day working from home, since most of the work was unavoidable, but afterwards I did what I had wanted to do for years. I remained in bed and watched TV for almost 5 hours straight. And, I was watching my favorite channels like Nat Geo, Discovery and Animal Planet. Every hour passed by in a soothing manner, watching new and wonderful things these channels showed today, right from Air Crash Investigation to wildlife programs with snakes, lizards and crocs. It kept me relaxed for a very long time and I really enjoyed everything. I also wanted to read a bit but I knew that would stress me even more because I would need to sit in a proper posture, whereas watching TV was the laziest thing possible.
Now, it is close to midnight and it has just occurred to me that I could perhaps blog about it and encourage others to take a break for their own sake and do something calm and enjoyable even if it is as simple as reading a book or just watching TV. It really charges up your batteries and gives your mind a break from the everyday hassles of life.
I have switched off my TV now and would probably fall asleep next but I would like to know from you if you would also fancy the idea of falling ill once in a while to escape the grilling demands of everyday life and just relax. Do leave me your comments and tell me if you like this.

text: The ability of staurosporine, a potent inhibitor of protein kinase C, to block certain cellular events initiated by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) was examined. Treatment of MDA468 breast cancer cells with TPA decreases EGF binding to the cell surface and this effect is blocked by pretreatment with staurosporine with an IC50 of 30 nM. Either 10-9 M EGF or 100 ng/ml TPA stimulated the accumulation of both EGF receptor and TGF-α mRNA and staurosporine (50 nM) completely abolished these mRNA accumulations. Staurosporine did not block EGF-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of its receptor as measured by immunoblotting with anti-phos-photyrosine antibodies. The ability of staurosporine to block the mRNA responses of either EGF or TPA suggests that these two agents have common signaling pathways and it implies a role for protein kinase C in the control of EGF receptor and TGF-α expression. © 1989.

Recently, a volunteer with the San Diego Maritime Museum contacted us with some questions relating to our previous research on lanyards. They had been exploring a new work positioning lanyard system and came across our ITRS paper from 2006 that addressed Purcell Prusiks as lanyards.
The work environment the volunteer was addressing was for climbing the high rigging on Tall Ships. The San Diego Maritime Museum is home to the Star of India, which is the world’s oldest active Tall Ship. The sailors that climb the high rigging do so without any protection until they get to a position where the work is to be conducted (e.g. furling a sail, painting, repairing, etc.) – at that point they secure themselves with a work positioning lanyard.
Following the phone consultation we provided regarding Purcell Prusiks as work positioning lanyards, an offer was made “if you are ever in San Diego…” Well, it turns out we were already going to be in the area and a private tour of the Star of India was too good to pass up. The captain generously signed off on a climb of the high rigging – what a thrill.

Back in my early blogging days , I interviewed singer/songwriter Matthew Mayfield. He recommended a duo that I needed to listen to called The Civil Wars and wrote it on my interview notebook (incidentally, he also recommended Thrice, a rock band out of Birmingham).
Out of nowhere, a brilliant new video called “Poison & Wine” had spread like wildfire over the Internet. When I first saw it on YouTube, I couldn’t take my eyes off of the almost uncomfortable intimacy between this couple. Their lulling vocals had intertwined into beautiful harmonies.
The word-of-mouth on this duo is turning into a cacophony of praise for their passion, tension, and longing in their perfectly paired voices. This duo relies on the simplicity of their two vocals, guitar, maybe piano and a kickdrum which equates to a deafening quiet that is paralleled by few.
Something about their music begs more questions about where all that tension and pain came from. It’s so raw. La douleur exquise! In fact, it’s so compelling that I set up (read: stalked them for) an interview with Joy and John Paul to get those questions answered. You’re welcome, audience.
We met at Ugly Mugs Cafe in East Nashville on a snowy morning in February for me to find out.
John Paul hums all the time.
Most important question: WHO is the real star of The Civil Wars???
Fittingly, the interview was set-up at a coffeehouse so the background noise becomes…charming! As always, the full interview is posted on the Podcast section and this 5-minute clip will give you the Cliff’s Notes version.
Joy Williams and John Paul White were the most gracious of people to interview. Joy was exceptionally warm and thoughtful and John Paul was kind, funny, and very open. According to their growing fan-base, including Eddie Owen of Eddie’s Attic, their live shows are dramatically breathtaking and intimate.
Introducing…Marc Scibilia. Oh the Places You’ll Go! The Interview.
Allison–loved your interview! I went right away and downloaded their live album at Eddie’s Attic, and I can’t wait to see them March 18! I loved seeing Joy Williams at Ten out of Tenn, so I am excited to see her perform more songs with The Civil Wars.
Cool! I actually just interviewed The Civil Wars too. Well… twitter interview. Twinterview?
Found your site from Tina J/Brett H – very cool. Thanks for more info on Civil Wars – heard of them through Jason Isbell’s Tweets and now am hooked.
I rarely comment on stuff online unless I really feel moved but I just HAD to write my own review on this.
I just found them out today by chance on some Christian blog and I was absolutely…taken aback. There is not a lot of well real though out beautiful music these days. The lyrics are overused and the same theme but this…just something about it was soo relaxing and meditative and I FELT their emotions in the music. I’ve already began downloading their songs and Poison & Wine was the first video and song of theirs that I heard.
this duo is absolutely BEAUTIFUL.

Matthew 13:15, "For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them."
The word "waxed" means "to become gradually more intense or to increase" and shows that this condition of the heart is not something we are born with or that strikes us suddenly. It has to be nurtured over a prolonged period of time. This is why we should not violate our conscience, even in small things. Guarding our conscience will keep us sensitive to God and will stop our hearts from becoming hardened. If we will stay faithful to God, even in the small things, then we will be faithful in the more important things also.
Keeping the commandments doesn't affect God's willingness to love us, but it affects our awareness of how much He loves us. If we live in sin, our conscience becomes defiled and it condemns us. It's not God condemning us, but our conscience. God still loves us.
John was speaking of this same thing in 1 John 3:20, when he said, "For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things." However, as far as this earthly life goes, our awareness of God's love is everything. Therefore, we must keep Satan from blinding us to the love of God.
The most effective way of doing this is to give no place to the devil through sin. John went on to say in 1 John 3:21, "Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God." Holiness is essential in keeping our hearts assured of the love of God (1 Jn. 3:19).
It's the nature of a Christian to walk in the light and not in darkness. When you are rightly informed of who you are and what you have in Christ, holiness just naturally flows out of you. That's your nature.

Civil tort. Reverses denial of Allstate’s motion to strike and motion for summary judgment, and remands for proceedings. The trial court erred by allowing Cleve Hatfield’s response to Allstate’s motion for summary judgment to be filed after the 30-day period allowed under Trial Rule 56(C). The reply should have been stricken, which then would have required summary judgment in favor of Allstate.

Dehydrated skin is a common problem and many of us go through this condition time to time. Many people misunderstand the difference between dehydrated and dry skin. However, it is clear from the name that dehydrated skin lacks water while the later one lacks oil. For dehydrated skin, one need to treat it properly but for the dry skin one can use serums and creams.
It is easy to treat dehydrated skin if you take the right steps. Before we get into the details of treating dehydrated skin, we must first look into major causes for skin dehydration. Dehydration usually occurs when there is not enough water intakes to replace what you lose during the day. The internal system literally dries out. Many times dehydration occurs for very simple reasons like you do not get enough time to think about drinking water because of sickness or busy schedule or you are unable to get safe drinking water because you are travelling or hiking etc.
Some other major reasons include diarrhea, vomiting, fever, excessive sweating or increased urination.
The best way to treat dehydrated skin is to drink lot of water and fluids to cover up lack of water in your system. Since dehydrated skin can aid to uncomfortable itching, no matter you are a male or female you need to learn how to hydrate your skin. As you age, your skin becomes thinner and oil gland become less effective making you prone to sun damage and vulnerable to wrinkles and dry skin. The best thing is, always try to keep your skin hydrated to delay aging and occurrence of wrinkles. Following beauty tips will help you to keep your skin hydrated for long.
Exfoliate: Dehydrated skins leads to flaky and dead skin. In order to get rid of that, you need to exfoliate. You can use facial scrubs suitable to your skin type to remove dead skin cells.
Hydrating Face Masks: Try using hydrating face masks since they can help to hydrate your skin deep down. Never choose for oil based face masks since they end up in development of black heads and dark spots on your skin.
Moisturize: The quickest and the best method to avoid dehydration is to moisturize your skin on a regular basis. Use good quality moisturizers and get rid of dry skin. You can have two different moisturizers, one for the daytime and other one for the night times. Use lighter moisturizer for the daytime since it will not give you oily and shiny. While for the nighttime, you can use a heavier one. By doing so, you can allow it to penetrate deep down the skin over night thus having a long-term hydration.
Fluids: Drink a lot of water to provide the necessary fluids to your body and skin. If you cannot drink plain water you can add freshly squeezed lime or lemon juice. You can even try herbal tea bags with some ice.
Hydrating foods: Add foods that hydrate skin from inside out. Many of the fruits and vegetables are not only a rich source of fluids but vitamins, minerals and other useful nutrients. Avoid consuming foods that are rich in sodium since they draw water from the body that can lead to dehydration.

This Event was a 280 ft Handstand walk for time. Katrin set off quickly and took an early lead. She managed to walk the entire length of the stadium on her hands without stopping once. Right before the finish line she paused for a second to regain her balance, then stepped across to take first place. She really showed her athletic prowess with this performance.
The fight at the top of the leaderboard between these two athletes was incredibly competitive throughout the entire CrossFit Games. Minutes after the Handstand Walk was completed, the Suicide Sprint Event started. Tia-Clair needed to respond and regain lost ground, and she fought back with great determination to take the win.
Josh Bridges finished his final two lifts at 147 kg (325 lbs) during Event 6 in the CrossFit Games. This is what pure guts and mental toughness looks like, not pretty, but he had decided to complete the workout and that is exactly what he did! The other athletes and crowd were cheering him on and the atmosphere was incredible!
This was Brent’s first year at The Games, and the Canadian showed the world just how much he had improved as an athlete.

I do not recommend home multi gyms at all as these are always machine at different stations.
A Bowflex machine would be better than any home multi gym, and I always recommend free weights over any machine including a Bowflex.
If you already have a Bowflex machine, then yes, you can start out with that. You will eventually easily max it out on the best exercises and you'll need free weights.
Barbells, dumbbells, and kettlebells are highly recommended. You can get just a set of adjustable dumbbells and do way better with those than any multi station home gym. And dumbbells take up a lot less space.
If you have space for a multi station home gym, you should go ahead and get a power rack, Olympic barbell sets, dumbbell sets, dip stands, and an adjustable weight bench.
But please, whatever you do, don't get a multi station home gym.

What’s the point in signing someone who isn’t fully healthy which is what you were suggesting?
That has been the lynchpoint with DT all the time. Definitely not "ready" (as in even close to 80%) for first part of camp so only limited time with Brady apart from video sessions.
It is a question of how much he is looking for. If he can be had relatively cheap then there is nothing wrong with him going the PUP / IR. The risk is minimal.
Lets be honest with BB and Brady around chances are that the most important games will be late in the year / start of new year. There is enough time.
We’ve whiffed this offseason on a number of good WRs. We have to hit a few home runs in the draft.
I don't think we whiffed on anyone.
Fair enough but I don’t really see the point in signing someone to put on PuP. Sign him now if he’s healthy or sign him when he gets healthy. The other thing to bear in mind is that the only WR we have on the roster next year is Berrios. We need to draft one and probably two just so that we have some WRs signed for next year and so roster spots need to be taken into account. We can probably manage it with Thomas but we’re at the limit: Edelman-Gordon-Dorsett-Thomas-Rookie-Rookie makes six. Of course one of the rookies could get Foxboro flu but six is a full roster.
So we didn't whiff on Humphries, Tate, Shephard, and Cole Beasley? Pretty clear the Pats were interested in all of them, at least according to reports.
Edelman-Gordon-Dorsett-Thomas-Rookie-Rookie makes six. Of course one of the rookies could get Foxboro flu but six is a full roster.
I wouldn't be shocked with Edelman-Gordon(other vet)-Dorsett-Rookie-Rookie-Rookie.
A triple dip in the draft? AJ Brown or Samuel early, maybe Boynkin or Sills middle, Morgan or Renfrow or someone later? This seems to be the position where the Pats are having the most trouble in nabbing bodies.
Fair enough but I don’t really see the point in signing someone to put on PuP. Sign him now if he’s healthy or sign him when he gets healthy.
Which brings me back to my initial posting.
I think there is some logic in signing a WR fully aware he will most probably start the year on PUP. Him being not cleared for practice doesnt mean he cant participate in meetings, do tape review with Brady or study the offense while he is working through his rehab.
The issue with DT is the question of compensation. You can only do what I mentioned above if he risk is minimal (e.g. lots of game roster incentives ect.). But what incentive would DT have to sign a contract like that now when he can just work on his own and then maybe sign a bigger deal during the beginning of September (or late August) when one teams panics because someone got injured.
The other thing to bear in mind is that the only WR we have on the roster next year is Berrios. We need to draft one and probably two just so that we have some WRs signed for next year and so roster spots need to be taken into account. We can probably manage it with Thomas but we’re at the limit: Edelman-Gordon-Dorsett-Thomas-Rookie-Rookie makes six. Of course one of the rookies could get Foxboro flu but six is a full roster.
I agree. Which is I still think 1-2 trades will happen and not necessarily only for players on their final year. Any FA signing at this point will most probably be short deals for veterans anyway.
I am not disagreeing with you at all manx. I just dont think that Gordon's and Thomas' situation are linked much.
The only one of those that they 'whiffed' on was Humphries. The rest might as well have been the players' agent using the Pats name as negotiation tool.
I am not even sure why you would mention Shepard here. If you do that then why not also mention AB and OBJ ?
With the majority they did their due diligence but it was only Humphries where they increased their offer.
I don't know why, but from all the reading and film, I like Samuel for the Pats more than Brown (1a and 1b).
Cole Beasley and Tate said they turned down NE, as did Adam Humphries. The point I’m making is the Pats have struck out so far this offseason in improving their WR group. Not sure why some of you get so sensitive about it. Like I said, the team needs to badly address this in the draft, as I’m sure they will.
I love Samuel too so I’d have no objections. My number one WR is Hollywood just because that explosion/speed is so rare but AJ and Deebo are 2 and 3 with tags touching. McLaurin is my no4.
Whether they “whiffed” or not, they were clearly interested in a number of WRs and failed to bring them in for whatever reason. This is not, or at least, should not be a controversial point.
Because Humphries is the only player that you listed where they actually struck out.
The others it was the same kind of deal as every year where the team offers them a cheap deal and dont care much further if the player says no and signs somewhere else for more money. With everyone else in your list nothing different is happening than in the last 15+ years of BBs tenure.
There is nothing sensitive about this. This is just reality.
The controversial point is making this out to be different than any other offseason in the last 15+ years. It is business as usual. Humphries is the only anomaly on his list of names where the team actually went back with a bigger offer. Something they rarely do.
I agree. But they’ve clearly been in the market for trade and FA WRs (the level of interest is unknowable) and they’ve failed to add anything beyond a couple of replacement level guys. The reassuring thing is that they’re clearly aware that they need to upgrade the position. Sterling Shepard would have been nice though. Big fan of his coming out.
Now you are changing the goal posts. Do you have any proof that NE gave Tate and Beasely low offers? All I know is NE attempted to get them and it didn’t work. If someone makes an attempt and misses it’s a whiff. You’re being too sensitive.

This paper explores the behavior of rational probabilistic deciders (RPDs) in three types of collectives: zero sum matrix games, fractional interactions, and Edgeworth exchange economies. The properties of steady states and transients are analyzed as a function of the level of rationality, N, and, in some cases, the size of the collective, M. It is shown that collectives of RPDs, may or may not behave rationally, depending, for instance, on the relationship between N and M (under fractional interactions) or N and the minimum amount of product exchange (in Edgeworth economies). The results obtained can be useful for designing rational reconfigurable systems that can autonomously adapt to changing environments.

This post was originally written in Japanese by Keiko Tanaka for Global Voices Online, and Taylor Cazella translated it into English.
Civic tech initiatives, which attempt to take advantage of technology to improve communities, have been springing up in recent years around the world. In Japan, innovators in various cities have held hackathons that have made use of public data and resulted in software/application being developed in short periods of time.
But for many Japanese, the word “civic” and “tech” are still foreign. It’s not easy for them to imagine information and communication technology and civil society coming together to solve community issues.
In December 2013, volunteer translators gathered in the Shibuya district of Tokyo to discuss how to introduce a practical example of civic tech to Japanese. They found “Beyond Transparency“, a book by American non-profit Code for America, which compiles essays about community’s learning around open data under a Creative Commons License (CC BY-NC-SA-3.0), and decided to launch a collaborative project to translate it into Japanese. Participants ranged from freelancers and university teaching staff to employees at IT companies, and all of them were brimming with enthusiasm to attempt a joint translation.
This project uses Transfex, a platform that allows anyone to participate in translation projects, even if just for a few minutes of their free time. It is also planned that Code for Japan, which promotes civic tech in Japan, will provide editorial supervision. At present, 25 percent of the articles are already online [ja] and available to read in Japanese.
Their goal is to have the project completed by around springtime. Once it’s translated, it will help bring more civic tech initiatives to Japan, which will hopefully mean examples for the English-speaking world to look to in the future.

In Sanskrit bandha means to lock, to hold, or to tighten and these locks are engaged to gain control and lock your energy, leading to a heightened axperience. One of these bandhas is the Uddiyana Bandha and here we want to talk about Uddiyana Bandha benefits.
The bandhas are an ancient practice deeply rooted in the yogic tradition and they are a step towards total control of your energy. There are four primary bandhas and they are basically muscular contractions that help you to breathe, focus on your awareness, keep your body strong, and give you a sense of lightness as you move through postures.
As we have said Bandha means to lock, close-off, or to stop. It can also mean “to bind” or “to hold captive”. In the practice of a Bandha, the energy flow to a particular area of the body is blocked. This is done as a method for harnessing the body energy or prana (life force) and bringing it under control.
Mula Bandha is performed in the pelvic area, Uddiyana Bandha is performed in the abdomen area and Jalandhara Bandha is performed in the chin area. Maha Bandha is the combining of these three bandhas all together at the same time.
The Uddiyana Bandha is the stomach lock and in Sanskrit uddiyana means to fly up, or to rise up. So Uddiyana is called the upward flying lock and is mostly known from Hatha yoga.
It is the abdominal lock and it is the second of the three interior body “locks” used in asana and pranayama practice to control the flow of energy (prana) in the body. Each lock seals a specific part of the body.
Uddiyana Bandha can be done either sitting or standing, and actually people do it both ways. It basically invloves contraction of the abdomen into the rib cage. It’s easiest to learn uddiyana bandha in a standing position since the abdomen is not compressed when standing.
To do Uddiyana Bandha it is best to be standing with the feet about three feet apart or the width of the yoga mat.
Hollow the belly completely, drawing it up underneath the rib cage.
Do not strain, but be firm.
Release the abdomen slowly and with control, softening the abdomen and then inhale. You can repeat this exercise three times.
When the Bandha is released, this causes the energy to flood more strongly through the body with an increased pressure.
When you are not used to holding your abdominal muscles this way, the feeling is quite intense. In fact you may even have sore abs the next day.
Bandhas are energetic locks that contain the prana in the torso and concentrate it in the three main energy channels (nadis) of the body. Uddiyana Bandha can be performed in a physical manner engaging the skeletal muscles and it can also affect a subtle and internal energetic process.
It engages and tones the abdominal muscles and thus creates a strong core. It tones, massages and cleanses the abdominal organs as well as deep interior muscles, and this toning increases the efficiency and productivity of the diaphragm muscle.
The numerous benefits of engaging Uddiyana Bandha are not only for the organs of the abdominal cavity.
It can help increase the range of motion of the diaphragm so the Dukkha, which is stagnant stale air that remains in the lung sacs, is massaged up and out, thus helping cleanse and purify the body.
It can aid with clear seeing, improved alertness and maybe longer life and general better welfare.
Uddiyana Bandha encourages the evolution of one’s Self from a limited self- centered existence into one that is based in love.
Of all the Bandhas, Uddiyana is the best, for by its activation liberation comes spontaneously” – Hatha Yoga Pradipika.
Uddiyana Bandha helps you regulate and control your internal systems, hormonal, sexual, metabolic, digestive, and more.
It helps you develop a beautiful you.
This ‘flying up lock’ is about your insides flying upwards, meaning your energy as well as your diaphragm, stomach, and abdominal organs.
With Uddiyana Bandha the energy moves upwards with much more force than Mula Bandha, thus allowing you to invert and jump more easily. It also can help you float back and forth more lightly, and twist better.
Uddiyana Bandha is a muscular contraction that helps you to breathe better, focus on your awareness and keep your body strong.
It can create more strength and stability in certain poses and can be used along with specific pranayama breath practices to heighten your experience and practice.
Known as the “flying upward lock,” Uddiyana Bandha brings fire to the digestive system and lightness to your yoga poses.
In hatha yoga, Uddiyana Bandha is a physical contraction that gives structural support to the body, mainly in the organs in the abdomen.
When engaged in conjunction with pranayama (breath work) and kumbhaka (breath retention), Uddiyana Bandha is used to stop the movement of prana (the vital life force, or energy), so we can begin to control or retain Prana.
According to the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, Uddiyana (upward flying) is so called by the Yogis because, by its practice, the Prana flies up the Sushumna Nadi. Sushumna Nadi is the central channel that correlates with the central nervous system housed in the spinal column. This is healthy for the body and mind and can lead to heightened awareness.
Uddiyana Bandha supports us in lifting ourselves up against the downward magnetic force of gravity and it is with Uddiyana Bandha where the upward lift against gravity can be seen most clearly.
It is important to view Uddiyana Bandha and its relation to breath because without breath, there is no prana to control. Uddiyana Bandha can help create a container within the body to make the most out of the prana energy.
Uddiyana Bandha strengthens the digestive fire and tonifies the body’s energetic core. With this bandha the abdominal organs are massaged, toned and purified and the adrenal glands are balanced by the abdominal contraction. It can be very helpful in relation to high blood pressure, heart disease, glaucoma, and pregnancy.
Uddiyana Bandha focuses on the navel region which is associated with digestion and with the generation of internal heat. From this hub energy radiates outward to the rest of the body in the prana channels called nadis.
Uddiyana Bandha can be the ultimate remedy for abdominal and stomach ailments, ranging from constipation to indigestion. It stimulates the digestive juices and increases your metabolism. Plus it is very good for toning your abdominal organs.
It balances the adrenal system bringing relief from stress, lethargy and tension.
It can help with your Will, firmness and self-confidence plus provide an increased capacity for acting efficiently in any direction we want to go.
Uddiyana Bandha can lead to a constant state of optimism and joy and it is a sure fire way to get flat washboard abs without ever doing any crunches!
Uddiyana Bandha helps us to manage, harnass and control the prana energy within the body.
It can have sexual benefits as well, such as increasing the sexual energy to superior levels, along with sexual will, affection and intuition. It gives a boost to the mental and spiritual levels and it stimulates the courage and self-confidence, providing you with lucidity and calmness.
We use Uddiyana Bandha to harnass and manage the prana energy bringing much benefit as a result. It is used with breath control to gain the full energy that is available in yoga.
However it is good to keep in mind that harnessing and channeling the prana energies is best done with the aid of a Higher Power. Some call it Buddha, or God, or The Tao or Christ but whichever one is your choice the Higher Power is the best asset for practicing yoga and energy management.
Scripture says that the prana is a modification of mind. Thus it is created by the mind and is actually overseen by the mind. When the Higher Power is kept in mind it illumines the mind and is reflected in the prana. This adds an entire new dimension to the practice and adds the light that is seen on the famous yogis faces and body glows.
Being mindful of the Higher Power is highly recommended and is actually in the scriptures like the Vedas which are the original source of yoga itself.
Here we have talked about Uddiyana Bandha and the many benefits of it. It can be a great aid to the practice and can be used to take it to the next level.
Uddiyana bandha should be practiced individually at first, and then it can be incorporated with the other bandhas, asanas, pranayamas and eventually mudras.
Although it may seem like a special function or technique, it is pretty common in yoga classes to be told to keep the belly toned and the navel moving toward the spine in many standing and seated postures. Uddiyana bandha works very well with the breathing practices and can aid in avoiding injuries.
Sometimes when yogis are muscling through poses without the support of breath and Bandha activation we find many root causes of on-the-mat injuries.
And remember that we can use Uddiyana bandha for heightened awareness also.
According to the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, a classic Sanskrit manual on hatha yoga, when the prana force stops moving, the mind stops moving as well.
That’s what we want for peace and good meditations!

Welcome to the 7th Annual Acton-Boxboro-Maynard PMC Kids Ride!
It's that time of year! The seventh annual Acton-Boxboro-Maynard PMC Kids Ride will take place on June 2, 2019, from 8:30 am to 12 pm at NARA Park in Acton, and we are hoping to have 200+ kids of all ages participating in this event. Last year we had over 200 kids come out to ride raising over $53,000 for Dana-Farber!
Help us surpass last year's success by signing up today as a rider or volunteer!
The PMC Kids Rides program became an official PMC program in 2005 as a way to include young cyclists in the Pan-Massachusetts Challenge's (PMC) mission of raising money for cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI). Since then, PMC Kids rides have raised over $9 million. The program engages youth in philanthropy, instills the value of working for the benefit of others, and promotes athletic fitness and physical activity.
The PMC Kids Rides program offers children, parents, and neighbors an opportunity to work together to create individual bike-a-thons in neighborhoods, at schools, or in business complexes. These rides enable children to ride their bikes and solicit sponsors to donate money to cancer research. 100% of all money raised at this event and by the children will go directly to DFCI via the PMC.
In 2018, the Pan-Mass Challenge raised $56 million for Dana-Farber. Make the commitment to join us because you want to help cure cancer! This ride is dedicated to all of our loved ones whose lives were cut short by cancer and to those who continue to inspire us as they live with cancer. The Acton-Boxboro-Maynard PMC Kids Ride will bring us "closer by the mile" to a cure!
We look forward to seeing you at the ride and thank you for your support!
8:30 to 9:30 am: Bike check and decorating – have your bike and helmet inspected by Pedal Power before the ride and then decorate it!

Every organization, no matter what its mission, should periodically measure how well it fulfills that mission and how effectively resources are being utilized in the process. While the specific metrics that each nonprofit adopts to assess its performance will differ, certain key ratios should be used to effectively measure overall performance, identify trends month over month and year over year, improve decision making and benchmark against similar organizations. To help our nonprofit clients, prospects and others, Barnes Dennig has provided a summary of some key ratios below.
Current Ratio – A basic measure of financial fortitude, the current ratio simply divides current assets (e.g., cash reserves and investments, real estate, vehicles and equipment) by current liabilities (e.g., taxes and lease agreements). This resulting number represents the ability of the nonprofit to meet short-term obligations. Generally speaking, a current ratio exceeding one indicates an ability to meet existing obligations.
Net Operating Ratio – This figure indicates how efficiently the organization is using its money to fund operations. To calculate net operating ratio, deduct total expenses from total income and divide the result by total income. The higher the ratio of income to expenses, the more cost efficient the organization is. Compare this data year over year to analyze the organization’s growth.
Fundraising Efficiency Ratio – Nonprofit organizations rely extensively on fundraising through events such as galas, golf outings and raffles, which involve significant planning, marketing, staffing and logistics costs. By dividing the total amount spent on fundraising by the total amount raised, the organization can calculate whether or not they are realizing a gain on the investment in fundraising efforts. A result of less than one means that the organization gained more than it spent. Conversely, if it is greater than one, the organization spent more than it gained. To gain further insight, consider dividing total contributions by unrestricted contributions, which can be used as the organization sees fit, including for general operating expenses.
Program Efficiency Ratio – This figure indicates how efficient an organization is at using funds for its core purpose and is determined by dividing total program expenses (money spent directly on furthering the organization’s mission) by total expenses. Essentially, donors and board members would like to see a one-to-one ratio, but it’s unrealistic for all funds to be dedicated to programs without some administrative costs.
Operating Reliance Ratio – Nonprofits use this ratio to determine how easily they could pay expenses solely from program revenues. It is determined by dividing program revenue by total expenses. The desired result is one or greater, which would allow the nonprofit to use additional funds to expand programs or grow other areas of the organization.
Operating Reserve Ratio – A certain amount of liquidity is expected to ensure that a nonprofit remains financially strong for periods when no additional operating revenue is available. When comparing expendable net assets (i.e., savings and the total value of everything that could be used to raise cash if necessary) to total expenses, a ratio of 25% or greater (enough for at least three months of expenses) indicates that resources are sufficient and flexible enough to support the organization’s mission without having to borrow funds.
Using the right financial metrics can provide your organization and its board and donors valuable information to help benchmark against past performance, measure advancement toward growth and profit goals and make decisions about programs and processes. If you have questions about nonprofit financial analysis or are looking for help with your annual audit or tax compliance needs, Barnes Dennig can help.

The camera records the process of painting: the artist is painting directly on the street. Instead of using oil colour or acrylic paint the only material utilised is water. Due to the specific camera angle the immaterial water-painting becomes visible. The fluid surface is rejecting the sky and trees.
Water as one of the most important and precious resources of our time creates a “virtual image” revealing the view of nature. The reflection works like an irritation: it exposes the view of nature as a past image and at the same time as a present reality. Water on Asphalt shows the ambiguity between digital progress and a vanishing nature. It remains a “memento mori” – a virtual memory rejecting the ecological dilemma of our times.

When I was looking into the different German-speaking countries that offered semester study abroad programs through OU, one of the aspects about Austria that appealed to me was that it was a more unusual choice. However, something I never considered was that visiting such a small country might have some drawbacks on the administration side of study abroad. In order to live in Austria for five months, I needed to apply for a visa–no problem, right? Fill out some forms, hand over some cash, and I’d be good to go.
