El món és un mocador, és veritat, però només si viatgem ben lluny. Tothom té un amic que ha viatjat a Londres o Estocolm per dos euros més les taxes aeroportuàries. Podem marxar al matí, dinar en un bistrot parisenc i tornar a casa a sopar. És cert, però mireu de desplaçar-vos vint o trenta quilòmetres a la rodona de Girona. I, sobretot, feu-ho cada dia. Viatjar a més de mil quilòmetres pot ser tant barat com (per posar un exemple) un abonament d’una vintena de trajectes de Llagostera a Girona en un autobús de la Teisa (que, per cert, no us serveix ni per anar al cine, perquè l’últim surt de Girona a un quart de deu del vespre). Mentre construeixen l’AVE que ens portarà de vacances on vulguem, creix (per mantenir l’exemple) l’embús de rigor a la carretera de Sant Feliu de Guíxols a Girona, ara multiplicat perquè per resoldre les retencions del semàfors de Llambilles es construeix una rotonda que és provisional, és clar, perquè a la llarga s’ha de fer una variant, que no sé si serà de dos carrils o de quatre perquè, encara més a la llarga, aquesta carretera s’ha de desdoblar, i així atraurà més cotxes i podrem tenir saturada una carretera més ampla i més moderna. Aleshores potser algun usuari d’autobús atrapat en l’embús de les 08.55 clavarà els ulls en la línia paral•lela de l’antiga via del carrilet, buida i ensopida, esperant que arribi, amb el vespre o el cap de setmana, el trànsit ociós dels ciclistes que es desplacen sense cap altre motiu que el desig de moure’s. Potser l’usuari d’autobús somiejarà un moment i s’imaginarà un tramvia silenciós i pulcre que circula amunt i avall, alliberat del bloqueig dels cotxes, i es veurà ell mateix assegut al tramvia, fent pam i pipa als conductors atrapats en una magnífica carretera desdoblada tantes vegades com vostès vulguin. Serà només un moment, però quina felicitat! (El Punt, 25 de febrer de 2010)

LA Fundació Rafa Nadal HA ESTAT PRESENT A L’ACTE “ESPORT I AGENDA 2030: UNA ALIANÇA PER A LA TRANSFORMACIÓ SOCIAL” DE LA FUNDACIÓ VICENTE FERRER
La Fundació Vicente Ferrer ha organitzat un acte a Madrid per a reflexionar sobre l’esport com a eina de transformació social i vehicle per a aconseguir els 17 Objectius de Desenvolupament Sostenible marcats en l’Agenda 2030 per l’Assemblea General de les Nacions Unides.
”Joc i esport: aliats de l’agenda 2030”
Les associacions Alacrà i La Torre de Hortaleza han estat les encarregades d’obrir aquest esdeveniment per a presentar el projecte conjunt amb la Fundació Vicente Ferrer, ”Joc i esport: aliats de l’agenda 2030”, on atenen menors en situació de vulnerabilitat del barri a través d’activitats esportives i educatives relacionades amb els ODS.
A més, la Fundació Vicente Ferrer ha ofert formacions en comunicació i mesurament d’impacte als professionals de les associacions per a millorar el seu sistema de treball i potenciar el seu abast.
Es tracta d’un projecte en el qual existeix un interessant intercanvi cultural entre els menors del barri de Hortaleza i els menors lliguin didos en Anantapur.
Es tracta de col·locar als menors en el centre de la intervenció com a agents actius i protagonistes. Que els menors siguin considerats com a titulars de dret, donant-los veu i fomentant la seva participació.
I per descomptat, el projecte incideix en la importància del mesurament de l’impacte i en la visibilitat a través de les eines de comunicació que cada entitat té al seu abast.
És un projecte que es duu a terme gràcies a l’aliança entre entitats i que facilita el treball de totes les parts.
L’esport com una part fonamental del projecte de la Fundació Vicente Ferrer a l’Índia
Vamshi Origanti, Academy Development Manager en la Anantapur Sports Academy, va viatjar a Madrid per a participar com a ponent en aquest acte i acostar als assistents a la realitat de Anantapur a través dels projectes esportius que es duen a terme dins de les instal·lacions de la Fundació Vicente Ferrer.
L’esport funciona com a motor de canvi per a l’Índia rural.
Els programes esportius de l’ANSA ofereixen accés regular a l’esport per a la població infantil, promouen valors positius, generen oportunitats de futur i faciliten als menors l’ús d’infraestructures esportives d’alt rendiment, l’accés del qual és limitat a l’Índia rural.
L’esport és desenvolupament sostenible, contribueix a la fi de la pobresa, a una educació de qualitat, a la igualtat de gènere, a la reducció desigualtats i és una eina poderosa i un aliat per a inspirar i motivar a tots els menors i les famílies que formen part del programa.
Vamshi va citar dues històries d’èxit relacionades amb l’esport, demostrant la seva enorme capacitat de generar un impacte transformador en els nens, nenes i famílies amb les quals treballen.
Estudi “L’esport com a eina per al desenvolupament”
Luz María Sanz, la directora de la Fundació Vicente Ferrer, va aprofitar per a presentar l’estudi “L’esport com a eina per al desenvolupament” que han publicat recentment i que ofereix una visió holística sobre aquesta eina de transformació.
Taules de diàleg
Després d’aquest inici de la jornada, es van organitzar dues taules de diàleg per a tractar diversos temes relacionats amb l’esport.
La taula de “Esport i igualtat de gènere” ha comptat amb la participació de Reyes Bellver, advocada de la LWF Platform, Anair Lomba de la Fundació La Lliga, María Pelaez, nedadora professional i Paula López, de la Asociacion Torre de Hortaleza que han xerrat sobre la importància de l’esport femení, la seva professionalització, la importància d’educar en tolerància i el treball dels projectes que busquen la igualtat en aquest sector.
En la taula de diàleg “Esport i desenvolupament: una acció multi-actor” va participar Manuel Parga, del COE, Lourdes García, periodista de TVE, Beatriz Lara, docent en la Universitat Camilo José Cela i Eunate Gómez, responsable de projectes de la Fundació Rafa Nadal.
Junts van posar en valor el paper de diferents actors del sector públic, sector privat, societat civil organitzada, entitats i institucions del món acadèmic i ciutadania en general en la consecució dels Objectius de Desenvolupament Sostenible.
També van ressaltar l’esport com una poderosa eina socioeducativa i de transformació social, que promou el desenvolupament holístic de les persones, la cohesió social i la igualtat; generant impactes positius rellevants en les comunitats i la societat en general, i en la població infantil en particular.
És necessari incorporar la teoria i perspectiva de l’esport per al desenvolupament, en particular referent als objectius de desenvolupament sostenibles (ODS), integrar-ho en l’inconscient col·lectiu, en els programes i projectes, en les estratègies d’esport.
Eunate Gómez, va destacar a més, que la Fundació Rafa Nadal té com a filosofia desenvolupar projectes de continuïtat i sostenibles, per la qual cosa continuarà treballant més enllà de 2030 per la consecució d’aquests objectius que són simplement una manera de mesurar la incidència dels seus projectes i del treball que es duu a terme.
Gràcies a la Fundació Vicente Ferrer per impulsar aquest tipus de jornades tan importants per a compartir experiències entre entitats.

El jugador del València Pablo Piatti ha comparegut en roda de premsa després de l’entrenament d’aquest matí per a parlar del proper rival de Lliga, el Màlaga, i d’altres temes d’actualitat com el de la possible arribada del seu compatriota Enzo Pérez.
Piatti ha dedicat paraules de respecte al conjunt que visita aquest divendres l’estadi de Mestalla. “És un equip que va complicar l’Athletic la primera jornada i que s’ha reforçat molt bé durant l’estiu”, ha declarat. A més, ha recordat que els malaguenys no comptaran amb dos dels seus pilars fonamentals per sanció, Antunes i Duda.
Sobre Enzo Pérez, nom que ha estat present en pràcticament totes les darreres rodes de premsa, Piatti hi ha asegurat que “si el club creu convinent portar un nou migcampista serà benvingut” i ha afegit que a l’etapa en la qual va compartir vestuari amb ell a Estudiantes, l’encara jugador del Benfica “jugava més per la dreta, però ara el seu joc ha crescut i al Benfica juga més avançat i amb més protagonisme arribant a l’àrea”.
Per últim, Piatti ha afirmat que l’equip va a treballar “per a estar ahí dalt i complir l’objectiu marcat, què no és altre que les places que donen accés a Lliga de Campions”. | ca |
Maybe you’ve always know you’ve wanted to be a research professor in wildlife ecology. Perhaps you’ve just taken a course on fungi and stumbled into a whole new world of career possibilities. Either way, getting past the first step– your undergraduate degree– and onto the academic path isn’t easy.
Academic culture isn’t always intuitive. Many undergraduates aren’t getting the mentoring they need to successfully pursue their career goals (and this is true at every career stage, really), once you’ve discovered what those might be. If you’re an undergraduate with some sense that you might need higher education to pursue your dream job– or at least decide what that is– the idea of graduate school can be intimidating. As I work through my second round of graduate applicants, I’ve found that many students are poorly prepared for the process of finding a mentor and and reaching out with that first, inquiry email. It’s unfortunate, because that is the very first step in the process; you could be shutting yourself down without even having a real chance at your dreams.
Are you not sure where to start? Are you applying to schools without ever having contacted a mentor? Do you know the difference between a resume and a CV? Are you bombarding list-servs with emails about your passion for the natural world and what a hard worker you are (pro-tip: don’t do this)? This guide is for you.
Applying to graduate school should not be a random process! Do your homework first. Image courtesy of PhDComics.
THINGS TO DO LONG BEFORE YOU WRITE AN INQUIRY EMAIL
Get field and lab experience while you’re still in college. Before you even think about applying to graduate school, you should be looking for opportunities to work in labs. It’s okay if you’re not interested in Drosophila research (as an example); working in a Drosophila lab will teach you a lot about the process of science itself, and give you a huge edge when you apply. You’ll also get a sense of what you like and dislike, and where your strengths and weaknesses are. Check your university for positions, and keep an eye on society listings for job postings for summer research assistants. The ESA Student Section has a nice collection of resources here.
Cultivate relationships with potential letter writers. As part of your graduate school application, you’ll need letters of recommendation from around three references. These should ideally be from researchers you have worked with, an advisor, and/or faculty you have taken multiple courses with. Do not ask a professor who taught the 300-student lecture you took three years ago for a letter– you’ll want these to be people who can really comment on your work ethic, ability to work independently and with others, your sense of drive and creative thinking skills, or other attributs. Ideally, letters can help bolster applications with holes, e.g, “Tom had a rough start academically but really came into his own when he discovered ecology, and I’m confident that he’s found his groove and will be a great asset to any lab.” Note: you will not generally ever see the contents of these letters, so make sure they’re from people who know you and are in a position to write good things about you.
Read papers. The best advice I got from my undergraduate advisor when it came to preparing for graduate school was to read, read, read, and read some more. I knew I wanted to do paleoecology, but didn’t have a good sense of what was out there, so I dove into the literature and came up with a dream list of researchers who were doing interesting work.
THINGS TO DO WHEN YOU’RE READY TO CONTACT POTENTIAL ADVISORS
Organize your CV. A Curriculum Vitae, or CV, is like an academic version of the resume, but it is not a resume. I repeat: A CV is not a resume. CV’s may be more than a page long, and should include everything about you that’s relevant– your educational background, work experience, publications, presentations, awards and honors, etc. I strongly recommend reading several CVs before you build your own, especially from researchers from different stages. As an undergraduate, you may not have a lot for most of the sections you see on examples, but you can also add other elements (e.g., relevant coursework) that you’d later take off as you progress. Don’t put anything on your CV that you started before college– no high school grades– and avoid part-time jobs that aren’t directly related to the work you want to do (wilderness first responder is ok, bakery cashier is not). I strongly recommend starting a CV as early as possible in your career, and adding honors, research experiences, and other achievements as they happen (trust me, you’ll forget). If you’re unclear about the difference between a CV and a resume, start here.
Write a concise, tailored, informative, and mature inquiry email. You’ve got a dream list of prospective advisors, or perhaps have come across an advertisement for a funding opportunity you’re really interested in. If you don’t, go back to the literature, talk to your undergraduate advisor, and figure out who you’d like to work with. In the sciences, at least, you are very unlikely to be accepted to a graduate program if you don’t have a faculty advisor willing to work with you.
When you’re ready to contact people, take some time to craft a brief, informative email that is individually tailored. For example*:
Dear Dr. Rosalind Darwin,
I recently read your paper, Snails are way cooler than slugs, and am very interested in your work on the importance of shells in determining awesomeness in invertebrates. I am a senior a the University of Science, where I am working with Dr. Advisor on a senior thesis about how beetles are also very cool, using tools our lab has developed linking wing shininess to coolness. I’ll be graduating this fall with a BS in Biology, and I was wondering if you have any graduate opportunities available in your lab? Until recently, my background was in plants, and I was wondering if you’ve considered testing whether the plant the snail is on affects how awesome it is? In graduate school, I’d like to apply my research to conservation, particularly in relation to climate change and other threats. My goal is to be a research professor working at the interface of conservation biology and landscape coolness, with a strong policy relevance.
I have attached a copy of my CV for your consideration, and would be very interested in discussing possibilities with your lab.
Respectfully,
Undergraduate Student
Find a comfortable setting, free of distractions, to compose your inquiry email. Don’t blow it!
Note how this letter uses the appropriate salutation (not “hey prof,” or “Hi Mrs. Darwin” or “Yo,” or “Hi Chaz.”). Seriously: I have not responded to emails that addressed me as “Mrs.” — or worse, “Mr.” Gill” (It’s Dr. Gill, Professor Gill, or, at the very least, Jacquelyn Gill. Spell the name correctly. By tailoring the inquiry, as I’ve done in my example, you show that you’re not on a fishing expedition by directly connecting your interests with the researcher’s, and shows that you’ve done your homework. The example also gives Dr. Darwin a better sense of what your interests and goals are.
Don’t lie, but don’t be your own worst enemy. Tell the truth about your research interests and goals, even if you’re not completely sure what those are. Obviously, doing some hard thinking about what those goals actually might be is an important part of this process. Some advisors won’t be interested in working with you unless your goals are to obtain a PhD and work at a major research university, and so don’t be afraid to aim high and sound confident. Having said that, don’t say you absolutely want to get a PhD to study exactly what your prospective advisor studies, and to work at a top research university if it’s not true. If you want to use graduate school as the opportunity to decide whether academia is for you, that’s okay; just be up front about that, without sounding wishy-washy. Don’t use the inquiry letter as a therapy session; minimize personal details, and emphasize the positive. Don’t trash talk your previous advisors or institutions. Don’t copy text from your prospective advisor’s website and past after the words “I would really like to research_____.” Don’t lie about whether you’re applying to other programs (remember that even if you end up not studying with a particular person, they may end up reviewing your grant applications or papers). Don’t sound too tailored, in other words, and be honest, straightforward, enthusiastic, but not pandering. Keep your language professional, but don’t be afraid to sound enthusiastic– but keep your feet on the ground (no poetry or hyperbole). If this all sounds like a tough balance to strike, that’s because it is– but remember that if you’re disingenuous or trying to hard, it will show. It’s always a good idea to show other people (including your undergraduate advisor!) a draft of your email before you send it!
Don’t treat graduate school inquiries as though you’re applying for a position in a marketing firm. Career Services centers are often very poorly equipped to advise students when it comes to applying for academic positions (see the resume versus CV discussion above). For your inquiry letter, avoid what I call “business school language.” Notice how in the example above, I didn’t include anything like “I am a highly motivated student, committed to academic excellence.” That’s what I want to see in your letters of recommendation, not in your inquiry email. In other words, show, don’t tell. Your first sell, to me, is your brain– I’m interested in whether you’d be a good fit for the lab, and demonstrate an ability to think originally and well. Your CV should tell me if you’re a high achiever, whether you’ve done a lot of fieldwork in adverse conditions, and whether you’ve published. Saying “I have experience in conceiving, executing, and bringing to fruition an original research project” is pointless if your undergraduate thesis is listed on your CV, and just serves to make you come across as stiff or grasping.
Make sure you provide everything that is asked for, in the appropriate format. It may be that you end up responding to an advertisement instead of cold-emailing a professor. If that’s the case, follow the instructions to the letter: provide a CV (not a resume, and not a resume disguised as a CV), a cover letter only if asked, and any other relevant information. Don’t attach your transcripts, GRE scores, etc. unless explicitly asked for them. This sounds like a no-brainer, but a large proportion of the emails I receive don’t follow directions.
Applying to graduate school is a stressful process, but you can save yourself a lot of time, effort, and headache if you do a little background work and make sure you send targeted, well-crafted emails to the professors you’re interested in working with. They may not respond anyway (professors are notoriously busy and are often poor email communicators), but they’ll much more likely to respond than if you take the shot-gun approach. You may get a polite response with an apology that the researcher lacks funding, in which case it’s always a good idea to research graduate funding opportunities, both broadly (like the NSF GRFP) and at your institution of choice. Almost always nowadays, graduate school starts with the first email; it’s the modern-day foot in the door. Your prospective advisor will not only guide you through the application process and advocate for you, they’ll also be the one you spend the next two to eight years with, mentoring you in your development as to an academic adult. You’re going to be a huge investment of their time, resources, and energy, and your letter really needs to show them that you have the independence, intellectual maturity, and professionalism to succeed as a student. Don’t blow it!
Good luck!
*As John Anderson–my undergraduate advisor!– notes in comments, you should not actually use the terms “awesome” or “coolness” in your letter, as I did in my tongue-in-cheek example. In a real-life example, those should be replaced with appropriate scientific terms. I also have to credit John with a lot of the advice I’m sharing about writing a well-tailored letter. It got me into graduate school, after all.

Hi Professor Gill,
Still relevant in 2020. I sent an email to a pi and received the following response (see below). I am not sure how to respond. I was going to send the professor a 1 page project summary with aims and references, but I wasn’t sure if that was called for or if I should just thank him and hope to speak to him if I get invited for an interview?
Gabriel,
Thank you for reaching out. Looks like you have quite a bit of experience. Impressive.
Lots of questions, all relevant with no doubt. I have answers for some, not for all, some things you have asked we have done and some are in progress, some other ones haven’t been explored yet. But perhaps we can leave that to a conversation whenever we have the chance. It would be too long and most likely incomplete try to address all your question in this email.
But I guess the answer you care the most is whether I have room in the lab, and the answer is yes. Especially for highly motivated people that share the same interests I have.
Good luck with your application to the MCP Program, I believe interviews are at the end of January, right?
Happy Holidays,
Andrea

Hi, I’m sorry I missed this until now. This is a very promising response, and I hope it worked out — I woulds read between the lines here that this is a case where knowing more about the specific process this department goes through would be informative. It sounds like they do a central interview process at that institution? Feel free to report back with how it went!

Hello Dr. Gill,
I am wondering if you have advise for folks who have been graduated from undergrad for a while or maybe going into a different field than their undergrad.
I finished my bachelors in 2014. When I was younger, I wasn’t totally sure of what I wanted to do. I definitely did not know I would want to go to graduate school years later (in a bit different field than my undergrad).
The standard formula of an intro email doesn’t seem to highlight me.
In my intro email should I:
1. talk about my undergraduate research experiences that are not very relevant to what I want to study now (I do have more recent relevant field work (non-academic) and research experiences)
2. talk about why I want to shift my career
3. talk about my non-academic experiences
Thanks for any advice you may have!

Hi,
I’m not sure if you’re still taking questions or not, but I have one question I’m not sure what to do about. I emailed letters of intent to several potential advisors for graduate school and heard back from a few. After several weeks I sent out a follow up email to the ones I never heard from and several weeks later I still have not received a reply from any of those professors (I did recheck their email addresses). Would it be bad to send a letter of intent a third time to them or just assume they have no intention of accepting any new students for next fall or did not like my letter? Thank you.
Heather

Dr. Gill,
Your blog post is impressive with how it has stayed relevant for all of these years and that you are caring enough to continue to answer questions!
I read through the post and comments, but I still have another question: What is your opinion on emailing the graduate coordinator of a program you are interested in, just to introduce yourself? Are introduction only emails annoying to faculty? This program’s website is very informative so I cannot think of a relevant question that would not seem as if I was wasting their time. I am not interested in the coordinator’s area of study but want to cast as wide of connection net as possible.
Thank you!

I’m a graduate coordinator now (I wasn’t when I wrote this) and I can say I’m always happy to answer questions, but it’s always a good idea to do the reading first. It’s frustrating when students aren’t checking to see if the website covers their questions. You definitely don’t need to email grad coordinators, but if you have a question that’s not covered somewhere, it’s perfectly acceptable to do that. We’re often also regular faculty, too, so we’re often also overwhelmed with email, so like anything, I would say it’s a courtesy to be thoughtful in your communication, especially during the pandemic. So, TL;DR, not needed unless they tell you to explicitly or you have a question.

Thank you so much for sharing! Do you have any advice for students who do not have any lab experience or publications? I was a transfer student with one year left of school and most labs wanted at least three years dedicated. I have my bachelor of science and will be applying straight into a five-year doctorate program. I know I am capable and an asset but have no way of truly proving it. Thank you again for your time and advice!

This is tough, and it’s a competitive pool out there. Anything you can do to get some of that experience, even late in your undergraduate or after school, will help. Your best bet in these cases are often to talk to professors who know you from class, or a graduate student TA. Look for short-term lab and field jobs for the summer or coming year if you don’t get in, and don’t be afraid to look outside your institution. You might need to start with a volunteer experience first, just to get your feet wet. You might also consider being flexible and going for a Masters, which can give you experience with research in a more low-stakes way. Many faculty are hesitant to take a student right out of undergrad into a PhD, especially without a significant research experience.

Hi! This post has actually helped me a lot in drafting my mail for professors. However, I don’t think I’m done. My CV is not yet complete (with respect to appeal and spacings) and my SoP is not done. Moreover, I think the mails itself require slight corrections.
Do you think it is too late to mail professors by late September? I think everything, including my ToEFL (which is next Saturday) and obtaining LoRs, will be done by then.

You should start the inquiry process long before you start your application. Just the CV is needed when you reach out. Work on that first, and don’t worry about the other application materials until you’ve been encouraged to apply. Your statement should be tailored to each lab/program, for example. Most application deadlines are in December or January, so you have time to get the other pieces together. Test scores are contingent on when exams are given, of course, and it’s good to give letter writers lots of notice, but overall, you don’t need a full application package just to send an inquiry email.

Thanks for the advice! I’ve sent one mail and will send another today or tomorrow. My GRE is done, my ToEFL is coming up in a few days, so that end is tieing up well! A brief outline of the SoP is quite done and I have to add more info based on each program. One letter writer has agreed, am God willing I’m going to ask the others before the end of the month or so.
I hope things sort out well! I’m actually basing my mails on the fact that I am working on that very field at the moment, which is actually not so strong since this research work didn’t start much long ago and it doesn’t have much content to add to it. But hopefully, all things will turn out for good!

I really enjoyed the advice that you have given. I just wanted to know if it is actually appropriate in contacting prospective faculty that you may want to work with if for most of them you will be breaking contact with them sooner or later. Like what if the ball gets rolling and it rudely stops because you already chose someone?

We all know that you’re applying multiple places, and it’s okay to be up front about that. Rather than rudely stop, you can simply send a polite note thanking them for their time, and letting them know that you’ve decided to pursue an opportunity elsewhere. These may be your future colleagues, reviewers, postdoc advisors, etc., so it’s worth maintaining a professional relationship.

Hi Dr. Gill,
This has been a really helpful article and has really helped me reach out to a few professors! I did have one question though:
I’m looking to apply to programs in viral immunology and I’ve emailed a few professors (two at my top choice and one at a mid-tier). The only response I’ve received so far (and it was sent the same day I sent my initial contact email) was:
“Dear Omar,
Thank you for you interest and interesting questions. Yes, I will be accepting rotation students.
Good luck!”
I attached my CV to this email as well and discussed my interest in the professor’s research and asked a question. I am, however, unclear on how to interpret this. Is this the professor’s way of encouraging me to apply or is the generic response an indicator that they really did not look at my CV or fully read my email and just quickly responded? How should I respond to this email?
It may also be worth mentioning my undergraduate research is in Biochemistry and so I am looking to get into a field I have little experience in.
Thanks in advance for any advice you have 🙂

Rotations are a different system than the one I described (which is where you apply to work in a specific lab rather than a program). For departments that do rotations, which is more common in chemistry and the biomedical fields, you apply to the graduate program, then do a rotation through various labs until you find a home. That process is a bit different, and doesn’t require a faculty commitment in advance. Your best bet is to follow up with the grad coordinator for that program.

I wouldn’t mention your age; it’s not relevant. I would instead demonstrate your intellectual maturity by showing your curiosity, drive, and sense of purpose. If you want to mention you finished your undergraduate degree by a particular age, you can—it’s part of your narrative—but it’s not necessary. They have no way of knowing, though they’ll likely make some assumptions when they talk to you if you sound or look young. So if you can address this as part of your story, frame it around why you pursued higher education when you did, and your general passion and drive.
Good luck!

This article was really helpful for me. Thank you, Dr. Gill.
I’m graduating this year, and I’m looking for positions right now. A lot of people say that when asking about positions in a professor’s lab in one department you shouldn’t try to contact another professor in that department at the same time. However, I have worked on 2 projects, each in a different field, during my bachelor’s, and I like them both. (biomaterials and energy storage)
I was wondering if it’s okay to email more than one professor who works on these subjects. Because it will take a long time if I have to wait like a week and see if a professor replies at all, and then email someone else. Would it be somehow inappropriate if a professor accepted me and then found out that I had emailed others in the department as well?

I think it’s ok if you have interests that overlap with multiple folks to email more than one, though there’s no harm in waiting if you’re early enough in the cycle (like now). Faculty recognize that you’re likely reaching out to multiple prospective advisors, and will understand that you’ve got to make the best choice for your goals. What I wouldn’t do is spam the entire department, including people whose research is very different. That comes across as insincere, desperate, or like you’re not a serious candidate.

I’m so glad you’re still responding to questions because you have helped me a lot! Actually, I did ask a question which you responded to several months ago. I plan to apply for grad school in marine biology for either spring 2021 or fall 2021. I have a BA in biology in 2015, but couldn’t land a research position in the field except volunteering at an aquarium 1/2 day once a week. Also what held me back was dealing with a bout of depression. I will soon be training as a Protective Species Observer in the Gulf of Mexico and am planning on having my inquiry letters and statement of purpose completed before I start any jobs. Just a few questions. Do I have to mention my bout with depression (also have been teaching swimming and supervising at a community center and I got my advanced diving certificate)? When should I send these letters out? Lastly, what kind of questions would you ask current grad students in the labs you were interested in and could I do that now? So far you’ve been a great help! Thank you!

You definitely don’t need to disclose anything about your history. You can simply say that in your time away, you’ve increasingly known that you want to pursue work in marine biology. You don’t feel satisfied, you miss school, there’s a hole in your life, you want to contribute to the problems you read about in the news, etc. Just acknowledge the time since you graduated, talk about how volunteering helped inspire and motivate you, state your motivation and move on to what you’d like to do.
As far as questions floor other grad students, I’d ask things like:
– What is the advisor’s mentoring style?
– What is the lab/departmental culture like?
– What is the community like?
– How is funding? Can you survive on the stipend?
– What are the opportunities for training? Does the advisor/department support non-academic careers?
Basically, questions about what it’s like to be a grad student there, how well you’ll be supported, etc.
Good luck!

Hello,
I’m a sophomore and was wondering if it is a good or bad idea to email a faculty member for the graduate program I’m interested in, to ask for tips to becoming a strong candidate for that specific program. I really believe in everything the university is doing and feeling a little overzealous! I’m just trying to be authentic and in my draft I shared some of the work I’ve done in my field of interest but I’m afraid I’m over-sharing. Do they want to know if I’m an honors student?

It’s great that you’re eager and excited, and it’s never too early to start thinking about this process. What I would recommend is first reaching out to faculty at your university, especially if you have an undergrad advisor, to ask them what to do now to prepare for grad school. Faculty have a lot of demands on our time, so it’s important that you first reach out to your existing networks and take advantage of opportunities to learn before you start emailing outside faculty. Find out what the scientific societies are in your field, and see if you can present at a conference. See if there are on-campus activities (panel discussions, etc.) for preparing for grad school. Talk to grad students at your university, if any, or if you can do a summer research program, talk to your mentors there. Build your network now, and seek out the webinars, blog posts, and other resources on the pathway to success in your field — that’s going to give you the best advice. I would not recommend reaching out to total strangers to ask for advice — you’re not likely to get a response.

I don’t recommend sending transcripts as a general rule unless asked for them. I think it’s a courtesy to send a CV with an inquiry email because it demonstrates that you’re prepared, and gives me a quick at-a-glance sense of your background, skills, and interests, so you can focus your email more on what you’d like to do for grad school. Not including a CV doesn’t help you, even if it may not necessarily hurt. I can’t really think of a reason why you wouldn’t want to unless you’re concerned about some issues on your CV, or it’s not as informative as you’d like. But if that’s going to be a deal-breaker for someone, you’d want to know that before you start the process, not halfway through!

Hi Dr. Gill,
Thank you so much for posting this and offering insight from a faculty’s perspective. I have a masters degree in Microbiology and I’ve been trying to find a PhD in a country, different from where I went for my MSc so I’ve been sending out cold emails to potential faculty members whose research I find interesting and I’ve been getting responses like: sorry, I’m not taking on new students this year/I don’t have funding/a grant didn’t come through. Is it okay to check with them again later (about a year later) for any opportunities that may have opened up?
Unfortunately, my undergraduate grades were subpar and don’t mirror my academic or research capabilities. However, I believe I made up for the lack in undergrad academic achievement with my masters degree, from which I graduated with distinction (total grade and thesis) as well as a summer research position that I undertook at the lab of one of my professors. Despite that, I have found that some faculty members are still hung up on my undergrad grades and at one point I was rejected from a program at a university for that reason. To be specific, last year, a potential PI agreed to chat with me over Skype to discuss his research interests and I thought it went well. Towards the end of the conversation, I mentioned that I’d applied to the department he was involved with but had just received a rejection and I was concerned it may have been due to my undergraduate grades, to which he tried to reassure me that my MSc should make up for that and he’d inquire after my rejection. A few weeks later, he emailed me saying that my undergrad grades were in fact the problem and he wouldn’t be able to argue against it. To be honest, it was very demotivating to hear and I am a little concerned that this will be a recurring issue with all faculty members I might want to reach out to.
So I guess my questions are:
1) Should I continue trying to reach out to other PIs from that department at that school or just forget about it?
2) Can I reach out to PIs from another department at the same school?
3) Has the ship for a career in research sailed because of my undergrad grades?

Sometimes “I’m sorry, I don’t have a grant” or “I’m not taking students right now” is a polite rejection, sometimes it’s the truth. It’s hard to know which, and it can’t hurt to follow up a year later, though you may get the same response. I have a student in my lab right now who I originally turned down two years ago, so you never know!
As far as reaching out to other PIs in the same school: yes, that’s absolutely fine.
Undergraduate grades are not as important to most PIs as research experience. It might be worth asking your mentors what might be holding you back — is it grades? Did you get a publication from your MS thesis (if not, this can be a red flag)? Do you not have the background for the programs you’re interested in? Sometimes, taking a few courses at a community college or local university and showing improvement over previous grades can help demonstrate your readiness, so think about that as an option.

I realize you started this wonderful post several years ago, but noticed some people recently contacting you so I thought I’d take a chance. I graduated in 2015 with a BA in biology and would like to to grad school next fall I very nervous about writing the perfect inquiry letter to professors so your article has helped a lot. My questions are geared more to how to explain certain things. I took the few marine biology courses my school offered. I also did some group research projects and papers in the field. After researching articles by different professors I decided I was interested in the ecology of marine invertebrates. I have a few hurdles to jump and not sure how to address them. My GPA is only a 2.95 and I didn’t too well on the GRE despite tutoring due to test anxiety. In the past 4 years I’ve been teaching swimming and am currently volunteering at a top aquarium 1 1/2 day a week (that’s all they allow you to do) with jellies. I had a minor in museum studies and did do a lot of volunteer work at the schools natural history museum as well as at a museum in New Zealand during junior year abroad. I am also an advanced scuba diver. I know what I want, I know I can be successful and I love to do research with marine life. Unfortunately, I don’t come across well with numbers or experience. How would you address such deficiencies to a potential adviser? I don’t want to wait any longer since I am anxious to get into the field and do research. Thank you for all you can help me with. Signed, lost!

Firstly, many schools are dropping the GRE as a requirement, so I would look into narrowing your search to those. Secondly, I would recommend seeing if you can take some more courses at a local community college, or a graduate-level class or two at your nearest university (in a non-degree option — many schools will let you do this) to show you can handle graduate-level coursework. I would also start looking for experiences where you can use your skills (e.g., SCUBA certification) to work closer to your fields of interest — are there seasonal jobs or even volunteer experiences where you can find someone who can write a good letter of recommendation for you? Those are going to be more important than grades for most people. Good luck!

No, it’s not too early — you can let them know that you’re looking for programs starting in Fall 2021, and wanted to start a conversation now. Some of the programs in your field will be different in terms of the application process — more like a lab rotation, so you don’t need to make that inquiry. So I would actually start first by connecting with faculty at your current university to see what the process and norms are for applying, and what you can do NOW to prepare for 2021.

Great information, even though would be uncomfortable using words like “cool”, the idea is great. I read this weeks ago before I decided to comment.
I have my Masters and I hope to get into a doctoral program. I have emailed several prospective advisors, and it’s been a frustrating process. Sometimes I ask myself “How many people can I contact before I give up?”
Many don’t reply (I guess they’re busy), but those that have, it was either : A) not taking students due to funding B) not taking students because they’re close to retiring or, C) I’m going to be honest here…..weren’t too thrilled with my GRE scores.
One professor replied within minutes, with a brusque, one-sentence reply that she’s not taking students (she didn’t give a reason); that was extremely disconcerting given the fact that I took time to construct a well thought out email, and I stopped my program search for weeks after that.
I can certainly talk to my MS advisor, but he found a new position at a more prestigious university where I will be very unlikely to be admitted into.

I know a lot of students who successfully ended up in graduate school after many years doing other things. Many faculty actually prefer working with such students, because they’re often more mature and know what they want.
If it’s been a few years and/or your undergraduate degree is different than where you’d like to end up, volunteering or taking some classes in the field you’re interested in can help. As far as convincing the professors you’re very interested in research, I would just tell them the truth. What excites you about your field? Why do you want this career? What about the last four years helped you understand your goals better? Yes, your CV will have some unrelated work experience. You can leave this off, since it’s not related to your discipline and won’t be involved in evaluating you. In your personal statements/emails, you can list the things you’ve done in the interim.
It’s also worth thinking about how you can spin what you’ve been doing as being helpful for what you’d like to do. Have you worked with people? Have you had to demonstrate writing or quantitative skills? Have you worked in teams, or independently? Have you gotten to travel or worked in adverse conditions? Used interesting equipment? All of these can be useful skills –it’s all about framing the narrative.
Good luck!

Hi Dr. Gill,
Thank you for such a great article. Using your advice, I was able to get positive feedback from prospective professors I’ve emailed!
I’ve also gotten a response from my top choice professor and things went well. After the intro email he stated that he’s looking for one or two grad students and asked about my ambitions and some future goals. Given my responses he said our research interests match up well and he’s looking forward to my application (due in January) and don’t hesitate to email with any questions. My question is should I email him periodically just so he doesn’t forget about our exchange? If so, what are some typical questions people should ask at this stage? I don’t want to come off too pushy but I wasn’t sure if you’re typically supposed to keep in contact up until the application deadline.

Congrats on the positive encouragement! I think just quick updates when you’ve applied, etc. are fine at this stage, unless you have specific questions that will help you make a decision about where to go (e.g., “what is the funding like?”). It sounds like your top choice is excited, though, so just a “As a quick update, I’ve submitted my application, so I’ll let you know what I hear!” is fine. He’ll remember you!

Hello, Dr. Gill! I know this was posted a long time ago, but thank you so much for your very helpful and insightful article! I used your advice to craft my own inquiry emails, and am indebted to you for your help.
I have sent 3 emails so far, and received my first reply – which I am very excited for! I plan on sending more over the next coming weeks. I wish I had started this process a bit earlier, but I hope it is still not too late to find a professor whose lab would be a good fit for me, and has room for me.
I had two questions, the first of which is regarding the professor who replied to me. In his reply, he gave me a brief overview of his current research and said we could skype if I wanted to know more. I know I should treat this skype call like an informal interview, but I want to know what sort of questions I should ask. I have started coming up with some questions to ask directly about his research, but is there anything else I should ask? and will this call potentially be the start of him helping me through the application process? I feel a bit lost since I have been out of college for two years, and I am worried about what to write for my letter of purpose.
My second question is regarding the professors who have not responded to my email. I have sent these emails 1 or 2 weeks ago. Should I send them another email politely asking if they received my last email? and if so, when should I send it?
Thank you again for your helpful advice!

It shouldn’t be too late, especially since opportunities (e.g., grant-funded positions) can come up at any time of year.
I would treat the Skype like a formal interview, in that you should be professional, but it’s also a good way for each of you to gauge if you’re a good fit. Think about questions that will help YOU make a decision about whether to work with this professor, and also if this is a good department/university for you. You should ask questions about funding — does it include summer stipends, benefits, TA-ships versus research assistantships? What about the culture of the lab — are there regular lab meetings? What’s the professor’s mentoring style? What opportunities are there for training or professional development (will you get to go to conferences?)? Will you have the opportunity to teach (if you want), or mentor undergrads? You can also ask about specific research being done in the lab that you might work on, so it doesn’t hurt to have some science questions prepared.
If the fit is good, the professor will then encourage you to apply at that stage. They may be encouraging more than one student, so there typically aren’t promises made at this stage (though sometimes people will say “I’d like to offer you a funded position, once you apply and are accepted). Usually if a professor is willing to fund you, acceptance at the departmental/grad school level is a formality. Good luck!
I would give two weeks minimum before you follow up, especially if it’s the beginning of the semester, or a holiday. After that, just a quick and polite response expressing your enthusiasm if they’re still interested is appropriate. If you don’t hear after that, I would just move on.

Dr. Gill,
Thank you vey much for posting this article – it will definitely help me for the future (and is now bookmarked)!
I am currently in my third year, graduating May 2020, and I really want to go to graduate school. For some background, I am studying environmental engineering right now, but I am looking for more of an environmental science/oceanography graduate study program.
I was wondering if it is appropriate to reach out to just the graduate school (such as general inquiries/contact page) and say that I have an interest in these programs and was wondering what I can do as an undergraduate to prepare me for graduate school at their institution? Also, as a Junior in my undergrad, is there any one else typically on a campus (other than my advisor) I can reach out to help me through the process of applying to graduate school? And I am currently working in a lab for experience and am involved with several organizations at my school, but is there any other thing you like to see undergrads involved in while looking at graduate applications?
Sorry for the long message and questions – I know you’re probably busy! – but I hope to hear back soon! Thanks!!

There’s not much point in reaching out to the graduate school, as requirements are so department/field-specific. You’d get much better advice if you research the pages of departments you’re interested in, and also see if there are blog posts that go into detail about how to prepare yourself (there are a lot of these out there!). You can also ask professors at your current institution — go to their office hours, talk to your academic advisor if you have one, etc.
Generally, if you’re interested in environmental science and oceanography, I would advise you to take math (especially calculus), statistics, chemistry, and physics, as well as some earth and marine science classes. If math and chem aren’t your strong suit, don’t give up hope, as that’s not a deal-breaker, but it will make you more competitive. Also look into getting research experiences, which is good. For next summer, I would strongly urge you to try to find an REU in the fields that interest you — these can definitely give you an edge. Also, if you have an option to do a senior thesis, I recommend it. That’s about it — club leadership and other kinds of extracurriculars aren’t as important as the hands-on experiences.
Good luck!

Thank you for such a helpful article, Dr. Gill! I am a current senior who is planning on taking a gap year before applying to grad school. I’d like to prepare as many of my materials during this year as possible so that I don’t have to spend as much time preparing next fall. I’ve already identified programs and potential PIs whose labs and research I’m interested in. Do you think it would be acceptable to reach out to these PIs expressing an interest in and asking questions on their research, even though I’m not applying this cycle? Or would it be better to wait until the summer?
Thank you!

Thank you for this thorough post. As someone who feels daunted about the application process, this helps. One question I have — I’ve graduated almost five years ago with an undergrad degree in sociology. I’m looking to expand into the sociology of education by pursuing an MA program at my alma mater. I’ve been working in a seemingly unrelated field — public relations — and am looking to make a leap for many reasons I won’t delve into here. The MA program at my alma mater is competitive, and with my B CGPA, I wonder, from your perspective or experience, how are people with okay GPAs, but with work experience regarded by academics? Should I take a different approach in emailing the prof/ program coordinator I’m interested in? Is emailing plus requesting a face-to-face informational interview a good way to make a connection?

I wouldn’t ask for a face-to-face meeting. People will invite you for one, potentially, if the conversation progresses and the fit is good.
Grades are just one part of the package. Prospective advisors or programs will tell you if that’s the sticking point. Maturity, passion, drive, and real-world experience are worth a lot, too.

Hi Dr. Gill,
Thank you so much for the informative article.
I edited my draft upon reading your article. I wish you could give me some feedback on the current draft:
Dear Prof. [Professor Name],
I am a fresh graduate of X University, with a major in X. My graduation project is titled “…”. I worked as an undergraduate research assistant in two research groups; at X, where I conducted a research on [simple illustration of my research] (published at X Journal), and at X, where we [illustration of research] (published at X). I very recently joined a research group at X University where we are currently carrying out extensive literature review for X. I have good experience with [tools related to the field].
I read your paper titled “[paper title]” and I find your work on [topics the paper covered] really exciting.
I am considering applying to the University of X and I’d like to inquire whether you are currently accepting graduate students. If not, do you recommend any other professors at the University of X with similar interests who will be accepting students? I know you’re very busy, I appreciate any time you can give me.
and then I attached the CV.
Thank you for your time, Dr. Gill 🙂

I like it! I’d recommend a few things: 1) If you can be a little more specific about what you liked about the paper and how it ties into your research interests, it will come across as more genuine. 2) I would take out the request for info about other professors. Some people will send you names, but it’s really your job to do this work, and phrases like that make me think you’re just taking a scattershot approach. I would also 3) take out “I am considering applying to the University of X,” but that may be field-specific. In my fields, you generally apply because you want to work with a faculty member, not because you want to be at that university, so again, this would come across as a form message to me.
Good luck!

Thank you for your reply, I have a follow-up question though.
I am applying for M.Sc. program, do professors expect M.Sc students to be involved in research and understand their papers? I find it really exhausting to read a full paper before emailing the professor. What I normally do is check the papers’ topics and if it goes along with my research interests, I send the professor an email. If I have to fully read a paper of the professors, do you recommend a most-cited one or a most-recent one?
Many thanks!

Hi Dr. Gill, thank you so much for the informational post. I am currently sending out emails to potential mentors (in the clinical neuropsychology sect) and am feeling funny about what questions to include. After a brief summary of how my research interests match theirs, I have been able to ask most advisors if they’ll be accepting students, which has given my email a “point” per say, but I ran into a road block: one professor has already listed that they’re unsure and will update their website mid-September. I still want to get my name on their radar…do you have any recommendations about other questions I should include? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

I’m a big fan of keeping those inquiry emails brief. “I would love to discuss opportunities in your lab. Would you be interested?” Or “Are you currently accepting students? I would love to discuss opportunities.” is sufficient. You can always mention that you’re happy to look for funding opportunities. If a professor is unsure, they may be waiting to hear back from a grant, so just be respectful of that response and check back later. Then you can reply to the same email (unless I’m reading this wrong, you’ve already emailed them, right?) and continue the conversation. You don’t want to be too pushy here — that can come across as rude or like you don’t respect their time. Good luck!

I will be graduating in June 2019 and I am wondering if you have graduate opportunities available next academic year. I became aware of your research and your contributions to the field of forensic anthropology, especially in human juvenile osteology in various forensic anthropology and osteology classes.
Starting in September, I will be studying the effects of _____ movement and _____ on _____ and documenting the ______ for my forensic internship under the supervision of ______ of _____. The study is planned to be published in a scientific journal once it is completed. In graduate school, I would like to continue to study the___________ in different environments but I am open to other research questions.

Instead of “I became aware of your research,” something closer to “I read your paper on…” or “I’ve been following your work on X, and I find it really exciting.” Make it a little more personal — it shouldn’t sound like you can just swap the titles out for another professor. Good luck!

Hi Dr. Gill,
I would like to ask a question about CV writing as an undergrad applying for a Master’s program. I’ve read the section in your post on CV writing, visited the website you linked in the section (as well as other websites) to view examples of academic CVs, and came across the reply you gave on Dec. 6, 2017 regarding examples of appropriate sections to include in a CV but am still unsure about the following:
1. I conducted research in undergrad as part of a senior honors thesis (an 8-month undergraduate course). As this form of research fits many of the sections mentioned in your CV comment (i.e. research experience, relevant coursework, presentation), I would like to verify which section would be most appropriate.
I think that this experience would belong under “research experience,” but am also planning on including the “relevant courses” section for other courses. Should I list the undergrad research course under “relevant courses” or would this be too repetitive (since the course would have already been mentioned under “research experience”)?
2. In relation to Q1, would the circumstance in which the research experience occurred affect the professor’s perception of the student’s application to their laboratory (e.g. volunteering in lab vs. co-op position vs. lab course)?
Thank you for your consideration, and I look forward to your reply.
Sincerely,
Brendan

Undergrad research/senior thesis research would go under the research section, IMO.
I wouldn’t call a lab course a research experience (that goes under coursework), but it’s still a place where you learned valuable skills, and it’s okay to speak to that. Whether paid or volunteer, a lab or field tech experience is a bit more in-depth, and your mentor can often speak better to your skills and personality. A thesis is the best, if you can do one, because it’s the closest analog to what grad school is like. But we understand that not everyone has access to those experiences.

Your introductory email takes the place of a cover letter in this case. I can’t comment specifically on why these professors did not email you back, because I don’t have the details, but it could be a few reasons: 1) You were not a good fit or match for their lab. 2) It’s summer and folks are busy and often away, especially during the holidays. 3) There may have been some issues with how you formatted your CV, or perhaps you don’t have the experience they are looking for.
As a general rule, I tell students to give it a couple of weeks and then follow up with a polite, brief email, and if they don’t respond of that, just drop it and move on.

This is a great post. I wish I would have stumbled upon it months ago. I recently applied to Ph.D. programs, however, I made a grave mistake and did not send inquiry emails. The reason for this is that I had read online from others recommending not to email professors. I now realize my mistake in not sending emails early on. I did, however, research the professors I wanted to work with and made sure I made it clear in my Statement of Purpose of why I wanted to work with them. The earliest applications I did were in mid-December, while the most recent were just a few days ago. Would you recommend still sending them emails now, introducing myself and letting them know I’m a prospective student? Or would I just be hurting myself even more by highlighting the fact that I didn’t email before?

Having not read the advice you’re talking about, it’s tough to say. If the people giving you that advice are in your field (and it’s very different from mine) or if the departmental website says not to do it, then it might not be the standard for whatever departments you’re applying to. In my field, and in my department, we very rarely take students out of the general pool of applicants. It can never hurt to contact a prospective advisor, and when in doubt, ask one of your professors, your undergrad advisor, or the graduate coordinator in the department you’re applying to what the convention is.

Hello Dr. Gill,
I am graduating in June of 2019 and I’m beginning to look into the grad school application process. I found your blog post to be really enlightening and helpful, thank you so much for taking the time to share advice! I am an English Literature major, so the process may be completely different, but I was wondering if there was a way for me to also contact professors that I’m interested in working with during the PhD process (without asking about a lab). Do you have any advice for an English major in the application process or how to contact professors before my application is considered? Is there is a way for me to reach out and express interest in their work? Do you think they might be able to put in a good word for me or is that mostly something that occurs the STEM fields?
Thank you again for sharing your experiences and advice!

I’m not sure what SOP stands for — statement of purpose? You should only mention specific professors that you’ve contacted and have had a positive discussion with. Professors will generally be contacted to review your materials as part of the departmental approval process. There are generally application reviews by the graduate school, and also the department. It’s not typical to request review from a professor — they’ll be looking at them anyway. You can tell them you’ve applied and thank them for their support, which is fine. Otherwise, you just have to wait, because there are still a couple of steps your application has to go through before a potential advisor is even consulted. Good luck!

A CV can look different at different stages of your career. A Masters student can certainly create a CV — you’d have sections for: 1) Professional Preparation (your education), 2) Research experience (it’s okay if unplublished — list your projects), 3) Funding (if any, even travel grants, etc.), 4) Relevant Coursework (you wouldn’t include this later, but it’s fine now), 5) Skills (including programming, languages, etc.), 6) Publications if any, 7) Presentations if any, 8) Service (have you served on committees? Volunteered?), 9) Professional Affiliations (are you a member of any academic societies?
I see many CVs by undergraduates. There’s no expectation that your CV looks like someone with a PhD twenty years out — it’s meant to be a living document that you add to through time. Look up some examples. You can absolutely write a CV at this stage, it’s just going to look differently from mine.

This is a really good question. The answer is tricky, and is really something like “the optimal number of programs to apply to is the number that get you into grad school.” I know that’s not helpful! But it really comes down to how much time you’re putting into cultivating those relationships with prospective advisors, if that is the norm for your field. As a general rule, I counsel people to focus on a smaller number of applications and putting more time and effort into those, rather than sending out lots and lots of weaker applications. This is because, not only will you do better if you put more time into your applications, but as you point out, they are costly in terms of time and money. I generally see people who are successful who start off with a long list of candidates, say around 8 to 12, and then winnow down based on their research and responses they get to initial emails. In an ideal situation, you will have at least 2 to 3 offers to consider and compare. In my case, I had a firm commitment of funding from my top choice, so I only submitted one application in the end, though I pursued several labs in the beginning.
Good luck!

In what way can I know that I will be able to work with my supervisor in the next 3+ years and he/she will support me during my journey towards academia (e.g. publishing papers, participating in workshops and conferences) if they do not give the chance to exchange thoughts before I accept the offer for a PhD program?

I’m not really sure what’s going on in this case — it may be that you’re in a field that’s really different from mine, culturally. I don’t typically even consider a student without knowing our research interests are a good match. If you’re in microbiology, chemistry, or some other field where you might do a rotation, or would be on a funded project without a lot of flexibility, then it doesn’t make a lot of sense to put the cart before the horse.
It may be that people are being polite and encouraging you to apply as a way to “reject” you in a passive aggressive way, but that doesn’t sound like it would be that common. It may be that in your field, or the types of institutions you’re applying to (outside the US?) that advisors don’t want to put the time in before they know you’re competitive. In my case, an advisor wanting to work with you can be one of the biggest deciding factors in your being accepted.
If none of the above is true, and people are just blowing you off, that may be a sign that you should be looking to work with different kinds of people. It may be a red flag that these folks aren’t a good fit and won’t be very supportive. Or, there may be something wrong with your approach — are things breaking down during the communication process at some point? Are you being too pushy? Again, >10 instances of this seems really odd to me.

Honestly? Just be open and tell the truth. This is the narrative of your life. Why did you go into academic librarianship? Was it really a detour? Or was it an important step in learning about data literacy and information science? Did you find yourself more interested in the topic than the work itself in the end? What inspired you to go back to biology? Your personal experiences? Lack of feeling challenged? There are lots of ways to spin a career trajectory — the important thing is to convince me as a potential advisor that working with me is the next logical step on your path. Many advisors really like working with people like you — intellectually mature, you know what you want, you won’t take grad school for granted. This can be a strength, not a weakness. Good luck!

I usually give at least two weeks before I send a follow up, especially in summer. Many academics aren’t paid in summer, or are at conferences or in the field, so may be away from email. A follow-up would generally be something like, “Dear Dr. X, I wanted to send a quick follow up, in case you’ve been away from your desk or missed my earlier message. I’m still excited to discuss opportunities with your lab. Best wishes, X.”

Dr. Gill,
Thank you for taking your time to share this extremely helpful advice. I am about a year and a half out of undergrad (graduated May 2016), so I am a bit rusty when it comes to writing professors emails. I would like to ask you a few questions.
~Do professors look more at undergrad research than post-grad job experience in the field you’re looking to research? I never worked in a lab while I was an undergrad or wrote a senior thesis, I did however intern with the Forest Service and have been working for the US Fish and Wildlife as a Fisheries Technician ever since graduation, but I am afraid not having any lab experience will hurt my chances of pursuing a masters degree.
Do you have any suggestions on how to “market” my experience to make it more relevant to research?
~I am a bit confused at the process of pursuing a masters. Is the order to email an inquiry before applying to a graduate degree? Or should you apply first and then inquire about a graduate advisor?
Thank you!

Great questions! I think professors will look at the whole package, and more recent experience is weighted more heavily. So, the fact that you worked for the Forest Service is and USFW is great (if you’re interested in doing something related to field ecology and not, say, physics). Lab experience is not as big an issue in that case. If you’d been working in a retail job and didn’t have any lab experience, that might be tough. If you’ve worked in the field but not in a lab setting, but wanted to go into molecular work, you might say something about how your field internships helped you realized that what you really wanted to understand was how organisms operate at the cellular level. Try to tie in what you’ve done with what you’d like to do — show the progression of your ideas. Always spin things in a positive way when you can!
As far as when to email, I suggest (for ecology programs) that you make contacts with prospective labs first. Applying without a contact won’t always work if you don’t have someone you’ve made contact with. Here at my department at UMaine, students who apply to the general pool rarely get accepted. Usually, we’re working with students during the application process, and if nobody is interested in working with a student, we don’t accept them. Plus, applying costs money and time, so you want to minimize the number of applications you submit if they’re not going to be successful.
This practice varies by field, though! For example, it’s common in some chemistry or molecular biology departments to apply to a program, then do a rotation among labs and then pick an advisor. So talk to people in your field to find out what’s customary. And when in doubt, talk to the graduate coordinator for the program you’re considering and ask what their culture is. Good luck!

Thank you so much for this post, it has been so helpful in formulating my e-mails to potential advisors! I do have a question related to choosing writing samples. A few professors on their websites ask for samples, and I am having trouble deciding what to send. As an undergrad I worked in a lab studying the evolution of poison dart frogs, and I am now applying to forest ecology/forest hydrology labs. My honors thesis (on the frogs) is probably my most polished piece of work, having gone through many edits and having been seen by many different eyes, but it is not at all related to the research in these labs I am interested in. Should I go with less polished, but more relevant, samples, or the thesis? Thanks again!

Generally, faculty who ask for writing samples are looking to gauge your writing skills more than your expertise. So, send them your best work, and then feel free to mention you’ve got other work you could also send upon request, if they want something more topical.

I’m a little unclear — did you send a resume instead of a CV? Or a CV formatted for a different type of position? If so, just a quick “apologies, please look at this instead” is totally okay. But if both provide the same relevant information, don’t worry about it.

Thanks for the informative article. I was wondering if I could have some advice. I am currently looking to attend graduate school for fish and wildlife biology. My undergraduate experience is in political science though. I am currently working on research on a fish population but other than that, my work is biology is limited. How can I present that information to a potential advisor?

I think you do it just as you did it here, for me. You outline your background, why you’re interested in shifting to a new field, and the experiences you’re gaining to help you do that. You may end up being asked to take some math or science classes to help you prepare, but for your inquiry email, keep it brief and make the personal connection with fish and wildlife biology.

Thank you! Your post was a good way for me to start writing emails. I emailed about 40 profs all over canada a couple of months back asking for an internship towards my final year undergrad project. None of them had openings for an international student.
Now, I have to apply for masters soon and I have to secure a supervisor for that. I will be emailing the same professors again. Is it fine if I contact more than one prof from the same department with a similar email template? I really need to get through this time.

I’m sorry I missed this when you posted originally! I would just say you were reading the paper (no need to say you found it on the university website). I might avoid “brilliant,” since that sounds like flattery — maybe “exciting”? I’d also avoid saying “Although not directly linked” (that goes without saying) — just focus on the positive: “which has been a great way to learn these techniques, and I discovered I really loved field/lab science” (you get the idea).
I hope that helps!

So, if you look at your message, you do a few things that I suggest you to avoid, First, don’t ask if someone can supervise you. The inquiry email should be worded less strongly (“I was wondering if you’d be available to discuss opportunities in your lab?”). Secondly, I didn’t learn anything specific about your research interests — what questions do you want to pursue? Do you have a particular project in mind? This email reads like it could be a form letter sent to dozens of people — that’s what you want to avoid. Try to tailor it to the specific advisor, and get them excited by referring to a specific idea or project that’s in line with their work.

Dr. Gill,
Thank you for the article, I took your advice and landed an interview with my program of choice! However, I have been waiting to hear back for about 6 weeks and would like your advice on how/when I should initiate a follow up with the professor. I would like to ask if she has made a decision, but I obviously don’t want to be pushy. Should I continue waiting or engage? She was waiting on a grant proposal for the position I was applying, so I thought I could word it in a way that merely asks if she has heard back about the grant. I am being told by students at the school that the deadline for hiring grad students for the fall semester is mid-April. Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you.

Congrats on the interview! I would definitely follow up and say something like, “I wanted to thank you again for the opportunity to discuss possibilities with your lab. I was wondering if you had heard back on the grant yet, or if you had a timeline for making a decision? I’m also happy to consider teaching assistantships or to apply for other available funding.”
I think the mid-April deadline you’re referring to is the April 15th deadline. That’s a commitment by most schools not to pressure students to make a decision until then– that way people who have multiple offers who might be waiting to hear about funding decisions have a chance to consider all offers. In other words, most places won’t ask you for an acceptance until then.

This post is exactly what I was looking for! you absolutely answer all of our questions. I have been facing an issue that most professors whom I emailed have told me their labs are full for the year (almost feels that the department has no open position). How to deal with that? I am also tailoring an email to this amazing professor (who is also a surgeon) , his work is exactly what I want to do as a future scientist. I am really scared that he either rejects me due to space restriction or because of my low GPA ( I have ADHD which affected my capacity to stay focused during studying sessions sadly). But your post gave me some more insights on writing a brief/positive inquiry !

The best way around this is to try to contact people as early as possible — ideally in the summer before you applications are due (I’ve even had some people contact me a year in advance). Summer can be tough, so don’t be afraid to follow up. Early fall is the latest you really want to be reaching out.
GPA is only a small part of what they look for. I overlook a lackluster GPA if the student has good letters of recommendation (so cultivate those!), research experience, and shows enthusiasm and intellectual maturity.
Good luck!

Thank you so much for writing this article! It is exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately for me, I read it a few hours too late. I just wrote to a two professors for my dream graduate program. Most of the programs I have applied to are in the biological sciences, which have rotations in the first year and do not require applicants to contact faculty. Now I am applying to an ecology program and it’s really different! I didn’t realize that the inquiry emails were so important! I’m so nervous… I really, really want to get into this program. I feel like it’s perfect for me. I now realize that my emails were way too long (about three paragraphs) and included a little bits of my life story. I thought I was doing a good thing by including additional information about myself! I attended a small undergraduate institution, and I guess I didn’t realize how busy PhD advisors are. I also didn’t know that proposing new research ideas was appropriate. I thought you just had to find a professor who is doing what you want to do and work on a project they have for you. I did read some of their papers, but I neglected to mention that because I thought it was such an obvious thing that anyone would do before applying, so it wasn’t worth mentioning. Wow, I feel like an idiot! At least I have a few more professors to email so I can learn from my mistakes! One of the Profs actually just replied and wants to talk with me so that’s exciting! I’ll take her graciousness as a good sign 🙂 Dr. Gill, would you be able to give me some advice on how to prepare for talking to this professor? I’ll be sure to think of ideas for new research projects and familiarize myself with recent publications. What is a prospective mentor looking for when they Skype an applicant? Will it be her interviewing me? What do they want to know?
I have to say, you are doing an amazing thing my sharing your insight and expertise with all of us. I admire your dedication to the readers here. Thanks for replying to our comments, even though you have no obligation to do so. It is clear that many people’s graduate careers were made possible your timely advice!

I’m glad you’re getting responses! I want to clarify — there’s no one single best way to go about this (though there are lots of wrong ways!), but there are ways that will maximize the likelihood of getting a response. It sounds like you’re doing something right if people are responding, so just be yourself and don’t stress too much about this processes. Focus on keeping your interactions courteous and professional — that goes a long way.
As far as a Skype meeting, this is both an informal interview, but it’s also an opportunity to get to know the professor and lab a bit more. This will be an important relationship, so conversations can reveal if you’re a good fit for each other (this goes both ways!). Make sure that you have a list of questions — how is the lab run? What is the professor’s mentoring style? What is the funding like? Are there possibilities to develop your own project? These are important questions for you, too. Your professor will be getting a sense of your intellectual maturity, your strengths and weaknesses, and whether you’ll be a good personality fit (I cannot stress this enough — your relationship with your advisor can make or break graduate school, so pay attention to your gut!). This will likely involve questions about your interests, long-term goals, research experience, even strengths and weaknesses. Think of it as half interview, half conversation. To use a terrible metaphor, it’s a bit like a date. Do you have compatible interests? Can you work well together?
Good luck! And thank you for the kind words about my blog!

Without seeing the full email exchange it’s difficult to say, but if she didn’t give you any response (“Thanks, got it, will be in touch”) at this stage it’s okay to ask if it would be possible to schedule a phone call or Skype to talk about opportunities.

Wow, I came to this article hoping to find some solution to the problems I’m currently facing and I find that I’ve done literally nearly everything in this article. Maybe I’m going about it the wrong way but here’s my issue.
I’m a biology student applying to programs in ecology and evolution. And my biggest issues are I can’t get anyone to call or email me back!! And I’m running out of time for deadlines! I work full-time and have little time on weekends and late afternoons to tackle emails, background research, GRE studying, meeting setups with potential contacts, etc. I have my GRe scores ready but want to take it again. I’m also working on 3 different personal statements tailored to three distinct programs, one in ecology/evolution, one in agricultural biology, and one in microbiology.
I’ve formed multiple connections through internships and my undergraduate faculty and they’ve given me names of Admissions directors and faculty to contact. I’ve also done my HW on several professors at 6 different schools and have tailored each email almost eerily similar to how your example was set up. The only people that have e-mailed me back are department advisors who simply give me the names of faculty who I may be interested in working with who don’t email or call back. At this point I’m ready to ask these advisors to simply contact those professors & people for me!!
I’m going to end up applying to these programs and not getting in because nobody would try to form a relationship with me. I’m even a little upset at those who do have an intimate relationship with me don’t go out of their way to contact somebody for me.
I feel I’m literally doing this on my own and all of my network contacts are just handing me more names and contacts that lead to dead ends.

I’m sorry this has been a frustrating process. Having not seen your contact emails, it’s hard to assess what’s going wrong here, but from your comment there are a couple of possibilities.
First, your interests sound like they’re all over the place. Is this coming through in your inquiry email? Do you have the background that would make you a good fit for the people you’re reaching out to?
It’s not typical to contact admissions directors in our field until you’ve made connections with faculty and are in the process of applying, so you should really be focusing on finding a potential advisor first. Don’t ask departmental advisors to contact faculty for you — that’s not appropriate. It’s also not anyone’s job to necessarily be making these connections for you at this stage — your mentors should write you letters of recommendation and be a reference, but it’s important that this come from you.
I’d have to see your inquiry email to assess what’s going wrong. But if you’re reaching out to a lot of people and not hearing anything back, my guess is you’re reaching out to the wrong people (poor fit; I usually don’t respond to emails that look like they’ve been sent to 100 other faculty), or there’s something wrong with your approach that you may not be aware of. Have any of your mentors looked over your email draft first?

Hi, I know this is almost a year late. But i wanted to thank you for responding to my comment last November. little tips go a long way. I definitely was tailoring each inquiry to the mutual interests of my potential advisors and myself despite me having several interests. So it must have just been a string of bad luck that NOBODY was getting back to me. I just wanted to share my experience of finally getting in somewhere.
I got into Southern Illinois University’s Zoology and Wildlife department where I will be studying physiological ecology of endothermic mammals, I just started my first semester. The ONE advisor that was interested in having me emailed me back asking me to come up with a list of projects i could do in his lab (perhaps as a test?) cause he wasn’t actively looking for a grad student nor did he have any on going projects but would take one in if he or she was creative enough. Talk about on the spot pressure! I miraculously must’ve impressed him enough to get accepted! Currently I have no project set up so I’m working hard to learn his lab and put together a thesis project. My interests are still very broad, well, not that broad, i love ecology, conservation, and dealing with anthropogenic stressors but I think (I hope) grad school can help me to centralize a passion. Do you think this can happen or should I already have figured out what I wanted to do?
Anyway, thank you for your advice!

Generally, if you get a supportive response you continue the conversation throughout the process, and it’s also good to give them updates. But once everything is sent in, you’ll generally wait until you hear something — it’s outside the hands of the advisor at that point, but it’s a good idea to let them know where you are in the process.

Thank you Dr. Gill for writing this, as someone at this stage in the process it’s extremely informative and helpful. I am wondering, my research lab provided is with a guide in which those who have already been accepted into grad school provide some helpful information on applying. At their advice, I sent an inquiry email to a professor, but it did not include my personal research plans, only which aspects of her research I am interested in. She responded warmly and quickly, but now I am a little worried I may have missed my opportunity to include that extra information. I do not want to appear too overbearing, would it be too much to send a follow up email explaining my research goals, or cut my losses and hope my email displayed enough interest.

You should always diversity your applications, especially without a strong commitment. It sounds like she’s being open and honest with you. Those other students may make other choices, or you may end up on a wait list, so it’s a good idea to have a backup plan or three. In the meantime, I’d keep the conversation going with her if you can — ask if you can set up a visit!

This is not uncommon.

I’d also avoid using phrases like “please reply asap” in your email to him. 😉

You shouldn’t go to grad school without funding, period. Most professors won’t take you if you’re not funded one way or another — otherwise, you’d have to take out costly student loans, and would have no way to pay for your living expenses. Make sure you look for lots of options, including people posting advertisements for students on list-servs for the societies relevant to your field.

This is a green light that he’s interested, but not committing yet. There are likely other people that he’s also considering. Definitely do what you can to keep on the radar — if you have an idea for a project, or for funding, you can follow up with something like that. But don’t bombard him with emails. Do your best to make sure your application is strong. Feel free to email him if you come across an interesting paper, for example, and say “I read this and thought of a project,” or “I found this fellowship and would like to apply.” You could also ask if it would be possible to arrange a campus visit or a Skype session.

The article and all the comments were really informative. However, I have a question. While looking forward for PhD, sometimes we don’t have a strong research or publications (just an independent work of dissertation on some topic is the most we have done, and that as a part of graduate coursework). It is more often because of the lack of proper funding or the well equipped laboratories especially in developing countries. There is a desire to study further and explore and delve more of the research areas, but because of lacking of practical exposure one can’t exactly make up his specific area of interest and can’t precisely generate the field where he would want to explore more (because you know there are wide areas that could be explored as biomedical science is itself interdisciplinary & multidisciplinary, and on top of that when you don’t have chance to explore more of the areas each and every areas of researches would be fascinating…be that genomic researches, proteomic analysis, works on cancer related researches, microorganism or animal models for genetic modifications, works on vaccine production or any other molecular level researches). So, in such a case when we look for potential advisors, most of the faculty’s work would fascinate us and they definitely have different topics to work on. Now my query is how would we find out specific potential advisors? And can we approach all the faculty of a department or all faculties of 2-3 different but interrelated departments of the same university? If yes, while approaching the faculties of the same department, should we approach the same way to all building up our interest on one particular topic…or can we approach individual mentors differently making up our interest as per their research areas??
And how would each way of these approaches affect the way professor looks after us and our genuinty??
This is actually a very important concern, at least for me, because most of the time we have a very strong desire to get an opportunity but are helpless due to different factors.
P.S. I am sorry if I could not present the query effectively, but I hope you would atleast get what I mean to ask.

I think most students who apply for PhD programs don’t have publications under their belt, and that’s okay! The best ways to find out who you’d like to work with is 1) read, read, read, and 2) talk to your mentors. Sign up for email alters for journal articles, or go to your library and browse recent publications, or do a Google Scholar search on the topics you’re interested in, and see who is doing work you find exciting. If you’re still having trouble, your professors and advisor should have some suggestions, too.
I would urge you not to email everyone in a department, unless it’s a field with a culture where you don’t need to know your advisor to apply (e.g., common in chemistry). The last thing you want to do is come across as spamming — I ignore a lot of emails from students who have nothing in common with me and show no specific interest in my work, but are clearly sending hundreds of emails to faculty in the hopes someone will respond. Your absolute best bet is to do your homework, research faculty you’re interested in, and approach them individually and respectfully. If you’re contacting multiple people at the same department, as a courtesy, let each faculty member know that (e.g., “I am also reaching out to Profs. X and Y.”).

Thank you, this is super-helpful, as I am trying to navigate this particular minefield…
I was wondering if you have any advice on what the policy/good form/polite thing to do is if – having crafted an inquiry letter to the best of ones abilities, with relevant interests, academic rigour and all – there is no response? I’m looking at UK institutions, which specifically state that contacting potential supervisors in advance is crucial. So, if there’s no response, either after a first inquiry or after a request for a proposal/cv, is it ok to send a follow up email (after a week? A month?) Or contact someone else in the same program? Apply through the formal process anyway (as one would, I think, in the USA)?
What I mean, I suppose, is if this semi-informal initial back-and-forth simply fails to take off or fizzles out, is the only thing to do just forget about applying to the entire department/institution?

It’s sadly not uncommon to not give a response, and I’ve been guilty of this too. Sometimes email ends up in spam, sometimes we’re swamped and it falls off our radar, and sometimes it’s a passive aggressive way of ending the correspondence. It’s hard to know which!
If you send an initial response and get no answer, feel free to send a follow-up in a couple of weeks (especially if you emailed over the summer or the beginning of the semester). If you’ve had a back-and-forth and there’s been a sudden radio silence on the other end, it’s also okay to follow up in a week or two (I generally give at least a week). But if someone seems very slow to respond in general and a bit flaky, consider that as a possible sign that they may not be a good advisor! If you do decide to follow up with someone else in that department after a conversation fizzles, a courtesy email to the first person is appropriate. You can also send a message saying “Thanks so much for your time. I just wanted to give you a quick update about my graduate applications — I’m also reaching out to X and Y, but I’m still very interested in pursuing opportunities with your lab.” Good luck!

Thanks for this write up, Dr. Gill. I am applying to graduate school after working in a field I thought I would enjoy, but have discovered it is not for me. I did not do fantastic in undergraduate school, but a large reason was a major illness to a close family member. My CV will not be very strong in my academia or relevant lab experience – I worked in a Chemistry lab, but am applying to Biology graduate school (with similar interest to yours), but I am currently participating in an Ecology internship. My question is how to go about asking for advice without a super strong CV. I think what makes me such a qualified candidate for graduate school is the path I choose after undergraduate (spent 7 months hiking across country living with and observing wildlife, working on fishing vessel absorbing as much as possible about marine ecosystems, etc). Are those things acceptable to put on a CV, and would you send such things to a potential advisor? I was also wondering about timing – the fall semester is just getting started, and I was wanting to ask for advice on taking a few classes in the graduate college as a non-degree seeking student (because it doesn’t appear you can apply for a degree seeking position in the spring). Is that an acceptable questions to ask in the inquiry email – would he/she suggest classes to take in the Spring semester? Thank you for any help you can provide – doing poorly in undergraduate has kept me out of graduate school, but I know with a renewed focus and drive I can certainly prove myself as a strong graduate student.

You can absolutely put any and all relevant work on your CV (even if not academic). I’d also not worry too much about switching fields — I know people who have gone from music to biology! Your cover letter can absolutely (briefly) get into your background and any gaps or issues with your GPA, etc. If you can take some community college classes in the meantime to show that you can do better under better circumstances, that’s also good. And any and all field or lab work you can do will also help, because letters can go a long way to improve your chances with a rough transcript.
Some departments do accept people in the spring, so don’t rule that out! But you’ll probably be stronger if you take this year to apply, get some field experience (even volunteering), and taking some classes.
Also, chemistry can be REALLy helpful to a graduate career in ecology. Stable isotope analysis, stoichiometry, physiology, and other disciplines all benefit from a chemistry background. If you’d rather leave that behind, that’s okay, too — just emphasize what you learned as a chemistry major (careful lab work, processes fundamental to life, etc.), spinning the transition as a positive (“during y studies, I realized that my real passion was in…” — and try to use a concrete example, like “while I was in my X class, I found myself wondering more about how global warming would affect the rates of X in Y, than the actual chemical reactions themselves.” You get the idea. It’s all about framing — take your personal narrative and spin it in a way that shows that grad school in ecology is the natural next step, and that the trials you’ve overcome will make you a stronger student and scientist.

Awesome post. I have just started exploring options for my post-grad studies, after two years of working odd engineering jobs. While I definitely want to answer the big questions of how the snails use their shells (or in my case, how water causes erosion), I am not very enthusiastic about the idea of PhD. I have found a couple of courses that seem perfect for my needs, a Masters in applied sciences with significant research component.
Does it help to be true to myself and tell my potential mentors what I am actually looking for, since the faculties clearly seem to suggest a PhD after the course? Also, it seems I missed the deadline for this season by a few days, which means I’ll be having so much time to prepare. Should I try and inquire early?

You can be honest about wanting a Masters. It’s good to aim high if you’re not sure, but as a PI, I also appreciate students who are open about their goals. And yes, it’s likely (though not necessarily) too late for this fall, but it’s a good time to get a jump on next year! Just be aware that some people don’t work in summer (if it’s a 9-month appointment) or may be in the field, etc.

Dear Professor XXX,
I have finished a master degree in Electrical Engineering in the field of Semiconductor Device Technology at the XXX, Tehran, Iran. I am considering applying to XXXX University’s PhD program and would be interested joining your research group for Fall 2017.
I am personally greatly interested in semiconductor optoelectronic devices. In my master program, I worked on Fabrication and Characterization of GaAs-based Photodiode for Ultraviolet Detection. I read your recent paper, “Design of broadband and high-output power uni-traveling-carrier photodiodes”, on your website (https://users.encs.concordia.ca/~xzhang/index_files/Page359.htm) and was fascinated by your results. In particular, how bandwidth performance of uni-traveling-carrier photodiode can be improved by using graded bandgap structure in its absorption layer.
Please let me know if there is any funded open PhD position in your research group for me to join. I have attached my CV to this e-mail, but if there is additional information that I have not included that you would like, I would be happy to provide it for you. Thank you for your consideration.

I’m glad it was helpful. In terms of following up, that’s going to be very context-dependent, based on the nature of the responses. I think it’s worth doing your homework first when you ask a question, because it shows you’re serious (“I see that there are university fellowships I can apply for, and it looks like teaching assistantships are available. How competitive are those?”. You can also suggest a Skype or phone call and ask questions about funding then — something like, “Is there funding available? What’s typical? I’m also happy to apply for fellowships or other opportunities if that’s a possibility.” Generally, though, I think a second email is a good place to ask if you can set up a call to discuss opportunities further, if you’ve gotten a positive response.

What if you’re in your mid-40’s and don’t have a TIME MACHINE to go back to your undergrad and grad schools and “make” all those contacts NOW to get all those “recommendations” NOW – and you didn’t back then because things weren’t the way they are now and everything wasn’t requiring all that “back then.” What then? I don’t think I have time to pursue useless certificate programs that don’t require all those references and CV’s covering everything I’ve ever done since HIGH SCHOOL (now almost THIRTY YEARS AGO) and all that. But I’m at a dead-end in any and everything that I’ve ever majored in that I could feasibly call “my fields” as to getting so much as an entry level position in any of them with “just” my Master’s. I”m trying to eke out an existence freelance translating and even all of THAT is demanding a “CV.” Take “early retirement” in a country that has it, where if you haven’t paid into the system because you haven’t been able to scrape together enough work, that translates to “welfare”?? THAT’S what my Master’s degree from Yale is good for now – welfare?Just because it was exactly 20 years ago this year? Even foregoing going through to a PhD program, I’m looking at second Master’s programs and even THOSE are demanding way more accounting for all time since high school than I remember them doing back in 1994-1996!!

A lot of my colleagues prefer working with people who have been outside of school for some time, and a number of folks I went to graduate school with had taken time off (including students who were in their forties or fifties when they started their graduate programs).
Taking someone on as a student is a massive investment of our time and resources as faculty, and positions are competitive; letters of recommendation are helpful for us in figuring out whether you’ll be a good fit, or successful. If it’s been a long time since school, and you haven’t been working in your field of choice in the interim, your best bet is to take a few classes so that someone can speak to your skills.
A CV isn’t an unreasonable expectation for a job or a graduate position. If you think it is, then perhaps further graduate studies may not be a good fit, as there are many more hoops to jump through! Most programs don’t want a day-by-day accounting of your time, just a thoughtful narrative about why you’ve been out of school and what you’d like to get out of going back.

Hi there, I am a graduate in bioengineering as of May 2015. My original goal was to go to veterinary school, and I am going through the interview processes right now. However, I am not sure veterinary school is what I want to do any more for personal/professional/financial reasons. I have tons of veterinary clinical experience as that is what I did instead of doing undergraduate research. However I did dabble in water quality and environmental engineering with Engineers Without Borders, and I did my own water quality project in Kenya for 6 weeks about water quality of springs and community perceptions of water quality in the area I was volunteering in. I did received an undergraduate grant to complete the project. I decided that I needed to do more with vet stuff so I stopped doing anything related to engineering. Now that I am having these doubts about vet school, I am doing more research into graduate school for environmental engineering to investigate my other interests. I have some questions as I am not sure how to approach the graduate school. I have no lab experience other than that independent research project – what should I do about this? My undergraduate professors know who I am, but I never worked for any of them and I feel uncomfortable approaching them and asking for help regarding programs, letters, etc. I know I need to start by doing some research on what the professors are getting up to at the school I want to go to…. I guess I am feeling a little lost as what to do right now. Any advice you may have is welcome.

If you don’t have an academic advisor, it’s reasonable to ask a professor for guidance if they’re in your field. We’re there as resources, too.
My advice would be to find some mentors, start reaching out to professors you’re interested in and ask if you need to fill gaps in your background, and start looking for opportunities to get lab skills. You may need to spend a year or two working in a lab to get experience.
It does sound like you have a reasonable narrative– changing fields based on a transformative experience, so play that up. You may not need to do anything else. I’d suggest looking into masters programs first. Good luck!

There are opportunity costs to getting a PhD — delaying income, delaying saving for retirement, delaying life in many cases (buying a house, finding a partner, having kids), so it’s never a decision to be taken lightly. I know people who pursued PhDs because they thought they needed one, or they didn’t know what to do next: those are bad reasons.
It really comes down to career goals, which you may not even know yet. If that’s the case, start with a MS. I’ve noticed lately that students are really eager to jump right into a PhD out of undergrad, and I think this a bad idea for most people. A masters gives you the chance to field test a PhD-length idea, to get experience in the lab and teaching, and to get a feel for how you handle academic life. For me, the MS defense was harder in many ways than then PhD, because it was so new. You’ll know by the end whether you need a break, whether you’re not interested in an academic position, ideally how you feel about teaching or fieldwork (some people discover they hate fieldwork!), etc. Nothing will stop you from launching off a MS into a PhD– you’re arguably in much better shape to keep up that momentum.
As to whether you need one or both, it’s worth looking at people who hold jobs you can see yourself enjoying. And remember that you can always, always go back and get another degree if you need it — and sometimes, your employer will pay for that (e.g., the National Park Service might fund your PhD if you need one to advance). If you’ve looked at the possibilities and you’re still not sure, or you don’t know what you’d want to do yet, the MS is a good place to start.

It depends on a variety of things — your advisor’s funding, program deadlines, and whether they accept students after admissions deadlines. For example, my department has a soft deadline, but if the advisor has funding, we can accept students up until the week before the semester starts! So it’s never too late to try. They may tell you they don’t have funding and it’s too late this year, or they may have just gotten a grant and are looking — you’ll never know unless you ask!

First, apologies for taking so long to approve your comment — it went into the spam folder! Handling GRE scores varies a lot by institution. In cases where a student is from a non-US system, or if your undergraduate institution didn’t have grades, they may contain some useful information. I personally don’t find them super helpful, or a good indicator of success per se, and I don’t necessarily think schools should have cut-offs for admission if other aspects of the application are strong. Strong GRE scores can help overcome weaknesses in the application, and weak ones don’t help, but they won’t usually make or break an application. Every department will be different, though, and especially in the sciences your quantitative GRE is looked at as an indicator of whether you’ll be able to handle the math and hard science requirements of your program. I recommend talking to your prospective advisor and getting a sense of the culture at your desired institution.

Hi Jacquelyn,
I’m curious why you recommend a CV over a resume to share with potential advisors. Professors I have talked to in the natural sciences indicate that they prefer the brevity of a resume and, in fact, this is the only resource I’ve found on the Internet that discourages resumes (or even mentions CVs altogether!) for initial advisor contact. With that said, I’ve already fired off emails with my resume attached…

A CV is the standard for academics– a resume is typically a document used in business or other non-academic professional settings. Resumes focus on job history, and CV’s focus on academic history. A resume doesn’t include publications, society memberships, research interests, or relevant coursework, for example. And while your summer job at the YMCA pool may go on a resume, it wouldn’t go on a CV.
At the undergrad and grad level, CV’s are going to be short anyway, so I don’t see why brevity is an issue– plus, when I’m deciding on whether a student has the right background for my lab, more information is preferable (but that’s my preference). And most grad school and funding applications will explicitly ask for a CV, not a resume. If you’re applying to applied natural resource management-type programs, there may be a different culture, but I’m in ecology and I’ve never encountered a preference for a resume over a CV (to me, it would signal that a student hadn’t done their homework about grad school and may not be ready for prime time).
I’m not sure where you searched online, but there are a number of resources on the resume/CV difference and grad school:

Programs will differ — some fields, like chemistry, accept applicants broadly and they do rotations before choosing a lab. For other fields, like ecology or geology, you’ll want that advocate or you may not get accepted if there’s no one who can work with you (that’s how my department is– we often reject strong applicants because there’s not a clear connection to any one faculty member). You’ll want to ask professors as soon as you possibly can. For December and January deadlines, I generally recommend September or October at the latest.

I think it’s always okay to check (sometimes the web is out of date), as long as you acknowledge that you saw that they’re not taking students. You can always make a strong case and say “I understand you’re not currently taking students, but I’ve been following your work on X and think I would be a great fit for your lab. Will you be considering taking students in the future, or would you consider someone who brought in their own funding?” You can also ask if they can suggest anyone else out there, as there may be someone new in the field taking students you don’t know yet.
Applying for two schools can be okay, as long as they’re the RIGHT two schools — the ones that you’ve developed a rapport with.

It’s always better to get letters from people who can speak to your success in a graduate program in the field you’re interested in, so definitely prioritize Ecology if that’s what you’re applying to. If you can’t think of three solid letter writers from Ecology, someone in Language could be a good third letter. It’s generally better to have letters from people you’ve done research with, rather than just taken classes from. Letters can make or break an application!

This is the case for many undergrads — your CV will feel quite underdeveloped compared with what, say, a PhD will have. For that reason, I recommend adding a couple sections to an undergraduate CV that you may not see on a PhD’s CV, like “Relevant Coursework” (where you might list classes, including short courses, that are related to your field) or “Skills,” which can include programming, field methods, lab analyses, computer programs, languages, or other things that may be important but not listed. You’ll definitely want to list your internship under “Professional Appointments.” For things like gaps, you can address all of that in your cover letter/inquiry letter. Remember that the CV is not the only thing they’ll see!
Definitely check the conventions for the country you’re applying to. In Europe, it is common to put things like home and family information (e.g., marital status) on a CV, but in the USA this is NOT done.
Good luck!

Thank you for the excellent overview and the fact that you are still replying to queries is very encouraging as well. The question though which i had was what if someone has actual field experience in a professional industry and no research experience at all but now want’s to go into a research based masters. How should he include this experience into his CV?.
I graduated in 2013 with major in mechanical engineering and have diversified experience in 2 very different fields (manufacturing & petrochemical ) so how would you advice about including this information in a CV?.

Great question. You can definitely add professional experience to a CV– just like a postdoc position. It’s very common for people to take time between degrees, and if the work you did was related to your field, add it to a “Professional Experience” section. This should go right after the “Education” experience. Your personal statement or cover letter can go into details about what those were about.

Hey Jacquelyn! Thanks for the awesome advice. I’m in the process of applications myself, so I’ll be taking your advice into consideration! Just a question, if you don’t mind giving comments or advice, about the CV. Do you recommend including information on previous research experience that’s completely different from the area that you plan to go into for graduate school? For me, I plan to pursue psychology, but earlier in my undergraduate studies I did quite a bit of research on cellular biology and received a grant award from it. Do you think it’ll look out of place if all my recent experience is much more relevant?

Go for it! Many undergraduates will have research experience that is totally different from what they pursue in grad school. But knowing that you did it is useful, because it tells me about your work ethic, curiosity, and skill set (statistics, handling equipment, etc.). Professors know that students have a trajectory, too. For my undergrad, I did research with ground-burrowing sea birds, but my senior thesis was in paleoecology (which is what I went to grad school for).

Great post, lots of useful advice! I am preparing to apply to grad school, but from the position of a PhD graduate with European degrees. The first time around I did Philology, concentration in Renaissance literature (2013), and now I’d like to continue with Medieval Studies. The institution I’ve had my eyes on for two years advises candidates interested in a PhD to take their MA there too (essentially for solid preparation in medieval Latin). I would be thrilled to do it, their MA is what sparked my interest in the first place. I have recently read online, however, that PhD graduates are not preferred PhD candidates. Can that be true? That would mean they are even less agreeable as MA candidates. I would give worlds to be able to discuss my background and situation with someone from the department, but I live thousands of miles away. I do not know whether I should write or call or go there. Who should I talk to first, truly the very first person to contact? Now I also fear that perhaps my foreign credentials might be a hindrance as well, since my letters of recommendation would be coming from people largely unknown to this other institution. Do you think I should go ahead and apply to the MA without previously contacting the department (no supervisor is needed for the MA, this is a no thesis program)? Or maybe contact the chair or a potential PhD supervisor straight away to discuss my intention to finalise at the PhD level? Oh dear, these are so many questions and such a load to bear: I have no undergraduate supervisor to consult with, I wish I did, and my former PhD supervisor, well, he does not know how things are being run here (no disparaging intended).
Many, many thanks for any advice you might have,
Laura, Canada

It’s definitely not unheard of, especially for people changing careers. But given the job prospects in the humanities, consider very carefully what your goal will be.
In this case, definitely contact the grad coordinator in the department, and talk to some prospective faculty. Even if you don’t need to, you’ll get done good advice, and having an advocate in the department never hurts.
Good luck!

Great article – I am in the throws of grad school application now. Contacting professors is my next big step, and I am drafting my inquiry emails. My biggest challenge, mentally, is wrapping my head around making my second choice schools sound as if they are all my first choice. At the same time, I don’t want to spread myself too thin and come across as uncommitted because I have too many options.

I’d hold off on the idea of first and second-choice schools for now. When you visit and interact with professors, your list will change a LOT. Treat each interaction separately, and don’t bring up where you’re applying unless asked. Applying costs money, too, so that may be a limiting factor. I’d recommend starting with a long list and winnowing down based on email responses. Ultimately, having two to five solid leads is the goal.

Is this too long or do you have any suggestions on how long this email should be? Yours is super short, only a paragraph is that what I should be striving for? I want to make sure I include my current research and that takes up a lot of space but I think it’s pertinent for each Prof to know. Let me know and thanks!

Great question! Summer is rough for a lot of professors, because folks are in the field or at conferences. So, you can get a jump on the communications now, but you may not get a response (conversely, for some people it can be a good time, because most of us aren’t teaching!). If you’re attending a conference, that’s a great time to introduce yourself to someone, and then follow up later.
Definitely DO NOT WAIT until you send in an application! You’ll want to be communicating with a professor WELL before you apply (and generally, you shouldn’t apply unless and until you’ve got someone in mind to work with — success in grad school is so much more about good mentors than it is about individual schools or programs). In many cases, departments won’t even consider an application that isn’t being supported by a faculty member. At the very latest, start contacting people in September.

Thank you for the advice! I have a question, though. This passage:
Saying “I have experience in conceiving, executing, and bringing to fruition an original research project” is pointless if your undergraduate thesis is listed on your CV, and just serves to make you come across as stiff or grasping.
Can you elaborate it further? What do you mean by ‘grasping’ here? Thanks.

Grasping as in desperate, clingy, or trying too hard. Those aren’t signs of confidence. It’s always a good idea to let your record speak for itself — highlight what you’ve done, not who you are. Leave the interpretations up to your prospective mentor. 🙂

Secondly i need to support my family after MSc so would i be able to support them while pursuing a PhD. In such conditions which things i should focus on while selecting a thesis or Project based Master. Waiting for your reply.

Thank you! It really depends on your career goals. If a PhD will help, the go for it — and make sure you are in a program and with an advisor that appreciates the needs of someone who wants to go into industry. Most PhD programs are funded, and include health insurance and a stipend. It can be possible to support a family on this, but you’d most likely qualify for food stamps here in the US! Most people with families in grad school that I know have had a two-person income. Good luck!

What is your opinion on “follow-ups?” I took your advice and wrote several professors, and the ones that did respond were positive, but concise, basically affirming the desire for me to apply, but not discussing the specific research issues addressed in the body. Is a thank you email warranted? Are these short responses expected, or is that a bad omen of their potential interest?
Thanks,
John

Depending on the time of year you email someone, it’s definitely okay to follow up even if they didn’t respond the first time. If someone’s in the field, at a conference, at the end of the semester, etc., you may or may not have a response right away, and professors are notorious for not getting back to people. Short responses may be more of a reflection of business than interest. I’d respond with a succinct follow-up in that case asking for a phone call to discuss opportunities, as well as funding availability. If they weren’t interested, they’d either not respond at all or say they weren’t taking students/didn’t have funding.

This is a great article. However, many of my fellow researchers (and admissions deans at some schools, such as NYU and Cornell) have pointed out to me that since a grad student usually has to complete rotations before joining a lab, it is not necessary to contact mentors before applying to the general Ph.D. program. What is your take on this?

A small point but a good one John. Some undergrads do make the mistake of overemphasizing their enthusiasm, and underemphasizing specifics (why do you want to work with me as opposed to someone else? how will grad school help you achieve your long-term goals? etc.) Being enthusiastic is great. But all prospective grad students are enthusiastic, so conveying enthusiasm doesn’t really make your introductory email stand out from the piles of such emails many supervisors get. Plus, enthusiasm is no substitute for the other elements that go into a good introductory email.

This is excellent. One additional suggestion: If you have undergraduate mentor/advisors, don’t just see them as letter generators. Talk to them about what programs they might recommend as a fit for you, and even ask them if they’d read a draft of your inquiry letter to places (especially where they might be personally acquainted with a potential advisor.) Not only does this help you improve your inquiry email, it gives the people writing letters on your behalf a better understanding of your interests and priorities in grad school, and might result in an even more insightful letter from them. | en |

Hungry For Change, Planting Some Knowledge, Plotting for the Future: A Business is Born
By Jeanette Smith Americorps VISTA for BYW, September 22, 2020.
By summer’s end, the Coaches in Training Program has evolved into a running business of rising high school board members who created the tagline: Hungry For Change, Planting Some Knowledge, Plotting for the Future. If you are wondering, What is the Coaches in Training program? Read this introductory article and then read all about their gardening projects under the News section.
Forbes Magazine article “Why Wrestlers Make the Best Employees” highlights the everyday athlete’s mentality in the workforce, “The one constant observation is that wrestlers have a capacity to push themselves harder than most and display an unrivaled mental toughness—”
To dive deeper into this correlation between wrestling and work, take a look here. The summer Coaches in Training (CIT) program incorporates entrepreneurship to tap into these career-ready successes for our student-athletes.
This summer, 12 CITs banded together under Boston Youth Wrestling to build out the first entrepreneurial venture as part of its fifth running season. The program tackled the issue of food accessibility in their community. By combining the Health and Wellness segment of the coaching program with their business venture, The Hungry Wrestler, the desired outcome has focused on the long term, sustainable solution.

But that was not all. The CITs felt each other’s hunger for change just as Helen Maroulis hungered for the women’s Olympic gold medal. They knew that by sharing their newly harnessed health and wellness knowledge, that change could happen. But how?
Logo part two of a two-piece set featuring all of the founding board members.
Two guest speakers, Dr. David Kimball, a business professor at Elms College, and Yarty Kim, an entrepreneur and co-founder of A4E Consulting Services Llp provided a soundboard for the CITs to ask questions about accounting and taxes. One CIT eagerly asked the guest speakers, “How does a small business like ours start out advertising our product? How do we get people attracted to our product?”
“Getting a first-hand experience from people who are real entrepreneurs will be invaluable in our business project,” another CIT commented about the prospect of questioning experts in the field.
Moreover, the participants were quick to seize yet another opportunity for having a business professor available to offer college readiness advice, “What should we expect when we major in business? How can we fully prepare or educate ourselves before majoring in business? What are some things that we should be aware of when investing in the stock market? How can we efficiently start investing?”
The nascent board of rising high school student coaches ultimately wish to plant new roots with like-minded community partners. Fulfilling the duties in their executive board positions, they are meeting throughout the year to design a website with their branding to kick off their venture. The members believe a stronger network will make their locally grown food even more accessible to those most in need.
The CITs collaborated virtually to design recipes using their locally grown crops for each dish. This photo captures one of their recipes using kale.
Prior to all of this, BYW has laid the groundwork, converting urban green spaces into locally grown food sources. As the process took shape, the participants’ aspirations grew too; CITs designed a presentation that evolved into a recipe book based on ingredients from the two gardens.
When asked: What was one thing you learned from working as a team to complete a shared goal? One CIT wrote the following reflection about the garden project presentation:
“I learned effective communication. We had three or four different platforms to communicate
[virtually], and we had to balance that, which I think we did well. In the end, we did manage to coordinate our presentation.”
To plot for the future, the members are creating a system around delivering The Hungry Wrestler’s fresh food to its community that incorporates its ingredient-specific recipes. This first year started small and intimate by sharing the harvest with the CIT participants’ close family and friends. They organized Community Day around the theme unity and community to showcase their hard work and to celebrate the growing season’s end while discussing big ideas for the future.
Highlights from the CIT planned event, Community Day, features a celebration of locally grown food and more.
To store up the ripe tomatoes for the colder season, we are searching for a local community kitchen or restaurant to provide space for canning and jarring our harvest. For this first season, we wish to thank our generous sponsors with preserved tomatoes and more!
And in order to transport our food stores, we need to secure a cargo van. Looking ahead, we are also on the search for more green spaces to scale the production of locally grown food sources. Give us a shout out if any of these items resonate with you or if you would like to share information.
Be on the lookout for an upcoming website with more information specific to The Hungry Wrestler initiative!

Psychologists Pratkanis and Aronson present a thorough overview of how individuals and the mass media manipulate us using devious persuasive techniques. In order to understand how and why we are persuaded, the authors analyze the various tactics people use to get us to comply; point out ways we might deal sensibly and effectively with propaganda; and examine persuasion in a context of argument and debate. The authors' quarrel with persuasive communication today is that, rather than using logical argument, it uses emotional symbols to manipulate us. Advertisers, for example, use short, catchy, visually oriented messages to get us to buy things we might not need. Pratkanis and Aronson skillfully summarize research findings from the field of social psychology to illustrate their points. While a large portion of the book is devoted to advertising techniques, the authors also examine media coverage of the Gulf War, cult leaders, and political elections. Highly recommended for public and academic libraries.
From an Amazon Reviewer....
http://www.amazon.com/review/R2ZGZ5K6O91X96/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm
This insightful book explores the profound differences in decision-making over the last 2,500 years. Despite a penchant for social science jargon, the authors successfully translate a tremendous amount of current communications research on the creation and maintainance of belief systems into an accessible book. "Age of Propaganda" documents the rise of advertising, the decline of genuine public discourse, and the inherent dangers of ten second soundbites in determining our desires, needs, and goals. Further, they detail the unique difficulties in making a "rational" decision in a fast-paced, message-dense, mass-media culture. This provocative and disturbing book also paints a potentially bleak picture for America's democratic traditions. Fortunately, the authors provide readers with "an arsenal" of intellectual tools to decode messages and protect ourselves. As the authors conclude, "we must depend on our own knowledge of propaganda tactics and our own efforts to treat important issues as if they were truly important."
And this detailed Comment, providing key excerpts from the book...
Behavioral principles - repetition, intensity, association (link content to the recipient's experiences) and ingenuity (make the ad distinctive)
According to information-processing model, a persuasive message must successfully pass through a series of stages. First, the message must attract the recipient's attention; ignored messages will have little persuasive impact. Second, the arguments in the message must be understood and comprehended. Third, the recipient must learn the arguments contained in the message and come to accept them as true; the task of the advertiser and other persuaders is to teach arguments supportive of the cause, so that these arguments will come easily to mind at the appropriate time and place.
Finally, the recipient of the message acts on this learned knowledge when there is an incentive to do so; a persuasive message is learned, accepted, and acted upon if it is rewarding to do so. Given that later stages of the persuasion process are dependent on the completion of earlier stages, the chances of any given persuasive communication passing to the final stage are quite low and thus the effects are minimal.
The recipient of the message, according to the information-processing model, is quite rational, deciding on how much information to accept from each communication depending on how that information satisfies and rewards.
Subtle and indirect - may not tell you what to think, but they do tell you what to think about and how to do it.
The successful persuasion tactic is one that directs and channels thoughts so that the target thinks in a manner agreeable to the communicator's point of view; the successful tactic disrupts any negative thoughts and promotes positive thoughts bout the proposed course of action.
Here are six facts that professional persuaders have learned about modern propaganda:
Ads containing the words, new, quick, easy, improved, now, suddenly, amazing, and introducing sell more products
Merchandise placed on shelves at eye level sells best
Ads that use animals, babies, or sex appeal are more likely to sell the product than those that use cartoon characters and historical figures
Merchandise placed at the ends of a supermarket aisle or near the checkout aisle is more likely to be purchased
Bundled pricing often increases the customer's perception of product "value"
In solicitations and sales calls, asking the target "How are you feeling?" and then acknowledging the response can double the rate of compliance with the request.
Two routes to persuasion - peripheral and central
Peripheral - a message recipient devotes little attention and effort to processing a communication. Persuasion is determined by simple cues, such as the attractiveness of the communicator, whether or not the people around you agree with the position presented, the pleasure or pain associated with agreeing with the position, or whether a reason is given for complying with the request.
Central - a message recipient engages in a careful and thoughtful consideration of the true merits of the information presented. The person may actively argue against the message, may want to know the answer to additional questions, or may seek out new information. The persuasiveness of the message is determined by how well it can stand up to this scrutiny.
What determines which route to persuasion will be adopted? - the recipient's motivation to think about the message - the personal relevance of the issue. * we are cognitive misers, forever trying to conserve our cognitive energy, we adopt the strategies of the peripheral route for simplifying complex problems.
Cognitive dissonance - describes and predicts how we humans rationalize behavior - occurs whenever a person simultaneously holds two inconsistent cognitions. This state of inconsistency is so uncomfortable that people strive to reduce this conflict in the easiest way possible. They will change one or both cognitions so that they will "fit together" better. This is especially true in situations in which a person's self esteem is at risk. In these circumstances, individuals will go to great lengths of distortion, denial, and self persuasion in order to justify their past behavior. When our self esteem has been threatened by our own past behavior, we all have a powerful tendency to become rationalizing animals. By reducing dissonance, a person defends the ego and retains a positive self image.
Rationalization trap = first intentionally arouse feelings of dissonance by threatening self esteem, for example, making the person feel guilty about something, by arousing feelings of shame or inadequacy, or by making the person look like a hypocrite or someone who does not honor his or her word. Next, offer a solution, one way of reducing this dissonance, by complying with whatever request the propagandist has in mind. The way to reduce that guilt, eliminate that shame, honor that commitment, and restore your feeling of adequacy is to give to that charity, buy that car, hate that enemy, or vote for that leader.
Almost every war in modern times has been accompanied by characterizations of the enemy as less than human. Dehumanization succeeds in resolving any dissonance that may be aroused by our cruelty toward our enemies. However, watch out; the more we justify our cruelty, the easier it becomes. The rationalization trap becomes an escalating spiral: "I committed an act of cruelty; I justified this act by believing that the victim deserved it. If the victim deserved that cruelty, well maybe they deserve more and maybe I am just the one to give it to them.
In our everyday experience, we have seen people break out of the rationalization trap by courageously admitting to their mistakes and learning from their errors. By understanding of our defensiveness and dissonance-reducing tendencies and, second, through the development of enough ego strength to recognize and face up to errors in past behavior that require correction - not justification.
Four stratagems of influence
The first is to take control of the situation and establish a favorable climate for your message, a process we call pre-persuasion. Pre-persuasion refers to how the issue is structured and how the decision is framed. If fully successful, pre-persuasion establishes "what everyone knows" and "what everyone takes for granted" By cleverly establishing how an issue is defined and discussed, however, a communicator can influence cognitive responses and obtain consent without even appearing to be attempting to persuade us. Next, the communicator needs to establish a favorable image in the eyes of the audience. We call this stratagem source credibility. In other words, the communicator needs to appear likable or authoritative or trustworthy or possessed of any other attribute that would facilitate persuasion. The third stratagem is to construct and deliver a message that focuses the targets' attention and thoughts on exactly what the communicator wants them to think about - for example, by distracting the targets' attention on a vivid and powerful image, or even by inducing the target to persuade themselves. Finally, effective influence controls emotions of the target and follows a simple rule: Arouse an emotion that just happens to be the desired course of action. In such situations, the target becomes preoccupied with dealing with the emotion, complying with the request in hopes of escaping a negative emotion or maintaining a positive one.
Glittering generalities - use of words that have positive connotations but are usually ambiguous in the context in which they are used
The purpose of Newspeak was not only to provide a medium of expression for the world view and mental habits proper to the reader, but to make all other modes of thought impossible. It was intended that when Newspeak have been adopted once and for all and Oldspeak forgotten, a heretical thought - should be literally unthinkable, at least so far as thought is dependent on words.
Language, words, labels, categories organize our realities and serve to divide up the world into neat little packages and to imply the range of appropriate courses of action to take. Words have the power to pre-persuade. It defines our reality, our thoughts, our feelings, our imagination and thus influence our behavior.
Framing a situation
episodic - depicting a single concrete, specific event
thematic - an abstract report about a general topic
Agenda setting is of great importance in maintaining power - by determining what issues will be discussed and when, what criteria will be used to resolve disputes, who will sit on what committees, and, which information will be widely disseminated and which will be selectively ignored.
How do analogies and metaphors persuade? By highlighting some comparison while hiding others and by providing a theme or structure for making sense of potentially ambiguous information
Defining the issue as "losing something" was more persuasive than stating it in terms of a gain
Never ask a question for which you don't know the answer. Never ask a question that doesn't get the answer you want.
Card stacking - the order in which questions are asked and the order in which information is received can distort and bias the decision making process.
Question asking can be a powerful persuasion device because questions structure our decision making process. They do this by directing our thoughts about the issues at hand and by implicitly specifying the range of possible answers.
Context makes a difference, judgment is relative, not absolute. Depending on the context, objects and alternatives can be made to look better or worse. Often we do not pay much attention to the influence of context, must less question the validity of the alternatives presented.
One of the important tasks of media research is to keep tabs on the "reputation and credibility" of public figures. Advertisers want to know which figures are most believable, who is most liked by the public. The answers to such questions determine the figures value as a spokesperson for the advertiser's product. Credibility has become a commodity not only to be feigned but also to be bought and sold on the open market.
Advertisers know that we believe what we believe and buy what we buy in the service of self image. They imbue their products with a "personality". To claim the desired persona, all we need to do is to purchase and display the right products.
Communicators can make themselves seem trustworthy by apparently acting against their own self interest. If we are led to believe that communicators have nothing to gain and perhaps even something to lose by convincing us, we will trust them and they will be more effective.
When the message conflicted with their expectations, listeners perceived the communicator as being more sincere and they were more persuaded by his statement
Not only do we tend to take more notice to unexpected events, but we also attribute more credibility to speakers who appear to resist the pressures of their colleagues and who take stands in opposition to their backgrounds.
Another way of increasing the perception of credibility: The apparent trustworthiness of a person can be increased and the apparent bias of the message deceased if the audience is absolutely certain the person is not trying to influence them.
Specific advice for making yourself likable: say what the audience thinks (which you can find out through polling), make others feel comfortable, and control the atmosphere (the situation) for your best advantage.
For increasing credibility - set easy initial goals and then declare victory (this will create the perception that you are a strong leader); use setting to support image; choose the negatives that will be written about you; and understand how people see things, then appeal to what they prefer.
Float an idea without attribution (that is, circulate a rumor). If everyone likes the idea, then claim it as your own. If it gets shot down, then deny your campaign ever said it. In this manner, you can always be sure to say exactly what everyone wants to hear. Another piece of advice: make sure you appear consistent in the media. And the best way to do this? Just say a few things over and over again (that way, you don't contradict yourself)
Credibility is manufactured, not earned. Credibility is created by carefully managing the situation so that the communicator, looks just the way he or she is supposed to look - likeable, credible, strong, expert, or whatever image is needed at the time.
Models are effective for two primary reasons. First they teach new behavior. Second we behave like our model because we believe the rewards received by a model for a given behavior will also come to us. It serves as a cue to indicate that a certain behavior is legitimate and appropriate. It can shape and twist our understanding of what is right and wrong. A model is most effective when he or she is high in prestige, power, and status, is rewarded for performing the behavior to be learned, provides useful information on how to perform the behavior, and is personally attractive and competent in facing life's problems - the model is a credible and attractive source.
Confidence of the speaker - the more self assured and confident a communicator appears, the more likely that we well accept what is said - low rates of speech error, an authoritative tone of voice, and a steady body posture, are positively related to persuasion.
Load a speech with the "correct" symbols and buzzwords as a means of informing the recipient that the message is acceptable and worthwhile.
Five conditions that are most likely to lead to heuristic rather than rational decision making (Heuristic - a simple cue or rule for solving a problem.)
When we do not have time to think carefully about an issue
When we are overloaded with information that it becomes impossible to process fully
When we believe that the issues at stake are not very important
When we have little other knowledge or information on which to base a decision
When a given heuristic comes quickly to mind as we are confronted with a problem
Self generated persuasion - getting someone to role play an opponent's position, or by asking a person to imagine adopting a course of action - is one of the most effective persuasion tactics ever identified. It gains its power from providing subtle social cues and directions that ask the target of influence, in effect, to think up as many positive cognitive responses about the issue as you can and, if you do happen to come up with some counter arguments, to be ready to refute them. The resulting message will come from a source that you almost always consider credible, trustworthy, respected, and liked - yourself. The act of generating arguments is an act of commitment to the cause. After all, they're your ideas, aren't they?
Vivid messages affect our cognitive responses in at least four possible ways:
Attracts attention - it helps the communication stand out in the message dense environment
It can make information more concrete and personal
Its appeal directs and focuses thought on the issues and arguments that the communicator feels are most important
It can make the material more memorable. This is especially important if we do not reach an immediate conclusion but base our later judgments on information that comes readily to mind.
Frequent repetition of an advertisement helps to meet multiple marketing objectives in a cost efficient manner. Repeatedly exposing consumers to an ad is a good way to introduce a new product or to remind customers of the value of an older brand. Often, repeat exposure is an unintended consequence of attempting to present an ad to multiple target audiences (the members of which may overlap). With the high cost of creating and producing new advertising ideas and slogans, its makes sense to stick with proven winners.
All other things being equal, the more a person is exposed to an item, the more attractive it is.
The rank and file are usually much more primitive than we imagine. Propaganda must therefore always be essentially simple and repetitious. In the long run only he will achieve basic results in influencing public opinion who is able to reduce problems to the simplest terms and who has the courage to keep forever repeating them in this simplified form despite the objections of intellectuals.
Advertisers know that repeated exposure can leas to what is known as "wear out" - when an ad loses its effectiveness because consumers find repeated exposures to be tedious and annoying. Wear-out effects are most likely to occur with ads that attract much attention, such as humorous ads and informational messages. Advertisers attempt to eliminate wear-out by using a technique known as "repetition with variation". In this technique, the same information or theme is repeated many times, but the presentation format is varied.
If you don't have anything to say, sing it. In other words, a mild distraction can disrupt counter arguing and increase the effectiveness of a persuasive message. A lively song can make us happy and thus help use think happy thoughts about a product. At other times the song may get stuck in our head, reminding us of the brand name. At still other times a catchy song or a big production number can attract our attention to the ad so that we don't change the channel or go to the bathroom and we at least hear the advertisers message.
The trick for the advertiser is to provide just enough of a distraction to disrupt counter arguing but not so much that it eliminates the reception of the message.
Distraction increases the effectiveness of weak arguments (because it disrupted counter arguing) but decreases the impact of strong arguments (because it disrupted the ability to pay close attention to the cogent argument being made).
People are less able to develop counter arguments to a time compressed message and that time compressing a message consisting of strong arguments reduced persuasion whereas it increases the persuasive impact of a message containing weak arguments.
Most of us have a strong desire to be correct - to have "the right" opinions and to perform reasonable actions. When someone disagrees with us, it makes us feel uncomfortable because it suggests our opinions or actions may be wrong or based on misinformation. The greater the disagreement, the greater the discomfort. But this does not necessarily mean the members of an audience will change their opinion.
There are at least four ways in which the members of an audience can reduce their discomfort:
Change their opinion
Induce the communicator to change his or her opinion
Seek support for their original opinion by finding other people who share their views, in spite of what the communicator says
Derogate the communicator - convince themselves the communicator is stupid or immoral - and thereby invalidate that person's position.
One sided or two sided argument
If a communicator mentions the opposition's arguments, it might indicate that he or she is an objective, fair minded person; this could enhance the speaker's trustworthiness and thus increase his or her effectiveness. On the other hand, if a communicator so much as mentions the arguments on the other side of the issue, it might suggest to the audience that the issue is a controversial one; this could confuse members of the audience, make them vacillate, induce them to search for counter arguments, and ultimately reduce the persuasiveness of the communication.
It depends to some extend on how well informed the audience is and on the audience's initial opinions on the issue. The more informed the members of the audience are, the less likely they are to be persuaded by an argument that brings out the important opposing arguments and then attempts to refute them. This makes sense: a well informed person is more likely to know some of the counter arguments; when the communicator avoids mentioning these, the knowledgeable members of the audience are likely to conclude that the communicator is either unfair or unable to refute such arguments. On the other hand, an uninformed person is less apt to know of the existence of opposing arguments. If the counter argument is ignored, the less informed members of the audience are persuaded; if the counter argument is presented, they might get confused.
Another factor is the partisanship of the audience. If a member of the audience is already predisposed to believe the communicator's argument, a one sided presentation has a greater impact on his or her opinion than a two sided presentation. If, however, a member of the audience is leaning in the opposite direction, then a two sided refutation argument is more persuasive.
The more frightened a person is by a communication, the more likely he or she is to take positive preventive action. Fear can be a powerful motivating psychological force, channeling all our thoughts and energies toward removing the threat so that we don't think about much else.
The principle of fear then relief
People who had a reasonably good opinion of themselves were the ones most likely to be moved by high degrees of fear arousal. People with low opinions of themselves were the least likely to take immediate action when confronted with a communication arousing a great deal of fear - but after a delay, they behaved very much like the subjects with high self esteem. People who have a low opinion of themselves may have difficulty coping with threats to themselves. A high fear communication overwhelms them and makes them feel like crawling into bed and pulling the covers up over their heads. Low or moderate fear is something they can more easily deal with at the moment they experience it. But, given time - that is, if it is not essential they act immediately - they will be more likely to act if the message truly scared the hell out of them.
If the recipients of fear appeal perceive that there is no way to cope effectively with the threat, they are not likely to respond to the appeal but will just bury their heads in the stand.
In sum, a fear appeal is more effective when:
It scares the hell out of people
It offers a specific recommendation for overcoming the fear arousing threat
The recommended action is perceived as effective for reducing the threat
The message recipient believes that he or she can perform the recommended action
The recipient's attention is first focused on the painful fear. In such a frightened state it is difficult to think about anything other than getting rid of the fear. Next, the propagandist offers a way to get rid of that fear - a simple, doable response that just happens to be what the propagandist wanted you to do all along.
Creating granfalloons - proud and meaningless association of human beings.
People acted as if those who shared their meaningless label were their good friends and close kin. They indicated that they liked those who shared their label. They allocated more money and reward to those group members who shared their label and did so in a competitive manner.
What makes a granfalloon tick - two psychological processes, one cognitive and one motivational. The knowledge that "I'm in this group" is used to divide up and make sense of the world. Differences between groups are exaggerated, whereas similarities among members of the granfalloon are emphasized in the secure knowledge that "this is what our type does." One serious consequence is that out group members are dehumanized; they are represented in our mind by a simple, often derogatory label, as opposed to unique individuals. It is a lot easier to abuse an abstraction. Second, social groups are a source of self esteem and pride. To obtain the self esteem the group has to offer, members come to defend the group and adopt its symbols, rituals, and beliefs.
Herein lies the secret to the persuasiveness of the granfalloon. If the professional persuader can get us to accept his or her granfalloon, then we have a ready made way to make sense of our lives - the propagandist's way - and as our self esteem becomes increasingly linked to these groups, we have a strong motivation to defend the group and to go to great lengths proudly to adopt its customs. What the propagandist is really saying is: "You are on my side (never mind that I created the teams); now act like it and do what we say."
Sometimes granfalloons come ready made. Each group is associated with a certain self image and lifestyle. Products are given a "personality" that fits the image of the target market; this advertising then goes on to create further the image of each granfalloon by specifying what needs to be done to maintain a certain image.
Shared emotion and feeling can also create a granfalloon. A sense of oneness with others can be produced by sharing a fun time, a sad situation, or a harrowing experience.
Co option tactic - subtly to change a person's granfalloon - corporation gives active critic a new position, often highly visible but without real power within the organization. Gradually, the critic becomes increasingly isolated from old "activist" friends and increasingly dependent on the corporation for material resources and a sense of identity. The opposition is defused as ties with the old granfalloon are dissolved.
Guilt - the feeling that we are responsible for something wrong whether real or imaginary - leads to compliance
Why it works
Sympathy, or feeling sorry for the victim
Restitution, or feeling the need to compensate for the wrongdoing
Generalized guilt, or the desire to repair a self image tarnished by a transgression
When we feel guilty we typically pay little attention to the cogency of an argument, to the merits of a suggested course of action. Instead, our thoughts and actions are directed to removing the feeling of guilt - to somehow making thing right or doing the right thing. We fall into the rationalization trap.
The norm of reciprocity - if I do something for you, then you are obligated to return the favor and do something for me - establishes a feeling of obligation and indebtedness
Commitment can be self perpetuating, resulting in an escalating commitment to an often failing course of action. Once a small commitment is made, it sets the stage for ever increasing commitments. The original behavior needs to be justified, so attitudes are changed; this change in attitudes influences future decisions and behavior. The result is a seemingly irrational commitment to a poor business plan, a purchase that makes no sense, a war that has no realistic objectives, or an arms race gone out of control.
When made to feel like a hypocrite, these people found the one sure way to restore their feelings of integrity: to begin to practice what they were preaching. If we are not made starkly aware of our hypocrisy, we all share the tendency to push the hypocritical behavior out of sight and do nothing about it.
When we discover that a commodity is scarce or may be unavailable, one of first inferences is that is must also be desirable. Why else would it be so rare? We tend to use a simple rule, or heuristic: If it is rare, if it is unavailable, then it must be valuable.
Scarcity and unavailability can do more than just make an object appear more desirable. When a phantom alternative is present, it can also result in a change in the perception, evaluation, and ultimate choice of the available options.
The presence of an attractive phantom made the other options look less attractive - a contrast effect similar in nature to, but opposite in direction from, that found with decoys. Second a phantom changed the relative importance given to the criteria for making a decision. Specifically, the attribute on which the phantom was superior was rated as most important for making the decision.
Owning an object that is scarce for or unavailable to everyone else is a means of defining one's self: "I am unique and special because I won something that no one else (or at least not many) has been able to obtain." Just hearing about a phantom may induce worry and concern: "If they bring out a better product, I'll be stuck with this thing. Maybe I should wait."
Phantom trap - fixation - focus attention on the scarce or unavailable item By concentrating on the scarce or unavailable, we may forget or overlook the possible. The presence of an attractive but currently unavailable object can focus our attention and resources on obtaining the desired prize. Settling for less than the phantom becomes a conflict that can only be resolved by "strength of willpower," a test that many of us often fail.
In many cases, phantom fixation can be a waste of time and energy, especially when the phantom is really a "red herring" of sorts - a truly unavailable option.
Consumer catch 22 carousel - obtaining a scarce and rare product adds to one's self image as a unique and special person. Manufacturers know this and design and market their products accordingly. If the marketer does a good job of creating a perception of the product as unique, then you desire and acquire it. But the catch is, so does everyone else; suddenly you are no longer an original. Instead of acquiring a product that makes you unique, you have obtained one that makes you just like everyone else. This further heightens the need for uniqueness, and off we go in an endless pursuit of the next faddish phantom. Once we begin using material goods to define ourselves, we are doomed to be on an endless treadmill of dissatisfaction.
Selectivity of news - without some form of censorship, propaganda is impossible. In order to conduct propaganda there must be some barrier between the public and the event. Access to the real environment must be limited, before anyone can create a pseudo environment that he thinks wise or desirable. For while people who have direct access can misconceive what they see, no one else can decide how they shall misconceive it, unless he can decide where they shall look, and at what.
Everyday news - selection of news
News reporters typically work beats - they are assigned a group of institutions to cover. This immediately injects one source of bias into news coverage - something that happens off or between beats has a lower chance of being covered unless it is a major disaster or other spectacular event. Off beat stories rarely are covered and aren't considered news.
Most reporters are on a deadline; they must prepare a given number of stories by a certain time regardless of what is happening. In order to meet their deadlines, reporters place a premium on sources that can be easily contacted and trusted. This also creates bias in at least two ways. First, the reporter develops a routine for covering a story - ignoring potentially relevant avenues of investigation. Second, the reporter's routine results in the same type of people appearing on the news repeatedly.
Increasingly, reporters work for a corporation. This concentration of ownership results pressure on the reporter; certain stories are encouraged or not encouraged depending on their implications for the parent corporation. More subtly, however, corporate ownership biases programming and coverage.
As difficult as these pressures may seen, the journalist faces one more pressure that may mean her or his livelihood - the ability of the news story to hold the audience's attention. All television programming, including the evening news, must strive for profits - and that translates into securing ratings and viewers that will attract advertising dollars. And what induces people to watch the news concludes that most viewers want to be amused and diverted; being informed is only a secondary motive for watching. To guarantee high ratings and revenues, mass media content tends to be agreeable and to require little effort on the part of consumers, while still being arousing, emotionally engaging, and above all entertaining.
What makes a great news story? Stories that:
Are new and timely
Involve conflict or scandal
Concern strange and unusual happenings
Happen to familiar or famous people
Are capable of being made dramatic and personal
Are simple to convey in a short space or time
Contain visual elements
Fit a theme that is currently prominent in the news or society
The result of this itch for entertainment is sound bite and photo op news - a montage of brief visual images that play to the crowd. Each event and every idea must be part of a dramatic story amply illustrated with visual displays. Stories that are easily dramatized and visualized are readily covered. More complex issues receive little attention unless they can be made concrete and visual.
As one's confidence is weakened, a person becomes less prone to listen to arguments against his or her beliefs. Thus the very people you most want to convince and whose opinion might be the most susceptible to being changed are the ones least likely to continue to expose themselves to a communication designed for that purpose.
People tend to acquire information mostly about things that they find of interest and tend to avoid information that does not agree with their beliefs. Should someone find that they have been unavoidably exposed to uninteresting and disagreeable information, a common response is to distort and reinterpret that information, thus ignoring its implications for updating beliefs and attitudes.
The use of entertaining programs to disseminate a point of view has been successful in achieving high audience ratings and in changing people's attitudes and behaviors. Not appearing to be explicit attempts at persuasion, they should arouse little resistance, inhibiting the formation of counter arguments by distracting the audience. Most importantly, people will probably watch them without switching channels.
Information campaigns can succeed if they follow these simple rules:
Make the program entertaining
Do not directly attack a viewer's attitude and beliefs
The term cult is used to describe a pattern of social relations within a group. At the core of the relations is dependency. In a cult, members are dependent on the group and its leader for most if not all resources, including money, food, and clothing, information, decision making, and, perhaps most importantly, self esteem and social identity.
This dependency results in a specific pattern of relations. First, cults tend to be highly leader oriented, since the leader is the source of all sustenance. Second, because the leader is so important, he or she cannot be criticized or second guessed. Cults are marked by little or no checks and balances on the leader's power. The leader is typically exempt form the rules of the cult. Communication is highly centralized, with little information available from outside the group. The agenda, objectives, and work tasks are set by the elites. Finally given the importance of the group to the individual, all influence and persuasion is directed toward maintaining the leader's power. Dissent is immediately quashed. Persuasion is based on simple images and plays on emotions and prejudices.
Seven tactics for creating and maintaining a cult
Create your own social reality - by eliminating all sources of information other than that provided by the cult. Cult headquarters should be isolated from the rest of the world. If cult members must remain in the larger community, then they should be isolated psychologically by keeping them busy chanting, reading cult literature, or working continuously for the cult. Members' mail should be censored. Family should be prevented from visiting members. Strict boundaries between believer and unredeemed must be maintained. Such censorship can be physical. However, it is much more practical to teach members self censorship by labeling everything that is not "of the cult" as "of the devil."
Then provide a cult's eye view of the world. This picture of the world is then used by members to interpret all events and happenings. One useful technique for constructing social reality is to create your own language and jargon. A good vocabulary is useful for putting the "right" spin on things. By teaching a battery of clichés any event is quickly defined as good or evil and critical thinking is abruptly terminated.
Repeat your message over and over again. Repetition makes the heart grow fonder, and fiction, if heard frequently enough, can come to sound like fact.
Create a granfalloon - the granfalloon technique requires the reaction of an in group of followers and an out group of the unredeemed. The technique allows you to control members by constantly reminding them: "If you want to be a chosen one, then you must act like a chosen one. If you are not chosen, then you are wicked and unredeemed. To be saved, you must act like you are supposed to act." Seasoned group members serve as role models and guides on how to behave for new group members. Intense peer pressure is applied to secure conformity. The result is a uniformity of opinion and behavior in the cult, which then serves to further reinforce cult practices - if everyone is doing it, it must be right.
A new recruit is often brought into a granfalloon with a practice called "love bombing" - the newcomer is showered with attention, approval, and support by cult members. Cult recruiters are taught to mirror the interests and attitudes of the potential new member, thus making it feel as if there is rapport and understanding between the recruit and the cult. In order to keep this support and approval, the recruit must conform to the group.
The essential ingredient in establishing an in group of believers is the creation of a social identity - an image of who "we" are. Joining a cult represents a break from the "other" world and the acceptance of this new identity.
The outward trapping of the believer - the new name, distinct garb, a special diet - all confirm that the member is indeed a chosen one. To retain this valued membership, all one needs to do is continue to grow in this newfound life and, of course, continue to obey.
The reverse side of the granfalloon tactic is the creation of an out group hate. The creation of an evil out group serves the dual purpose of making members feel good about belonging to their own group (I'm glad I'm not like them) and increasing their fears about leaving and not supporting their won group (I don't want to be like them; I can't let them take over the world.)
If granfalloon techniques are correctly applied, then you should be successful in creating fear of the "outside" world and the belief that the cult is the only solution to a happy life. Life is thus impossible outside the cult - the only solution to life's problems.
Create commitment through a rationalization trap. Cults can insure members' obedience by establishing a spiral of escalating commitment; the cult member, at first agrees to simple request that becoming increasing more demanding. After making an initial commitment, one does not feel comfortable reneging on the deal. To justify the sensibility of the initial commitment, the member if often willing to do more and then still more - to meet increasingly demanding commitments. In this way, the resolution of dissonance and maintenance of one's self image as honoring commitments form a powerful rationalization trap.
Shower new recruits with attention and gifts; consistent with the norm of reciprocity, it is now time for the newcomer to do something for the group.
Note also that the member, after having done all these things, is faced with a dilemma: "How can I explain all that I have done to those outside the group?" This requires the creation of the sensible, coherent justification that is not easily forthcoming. The rationalization trap is sprung.
Establish the leader's credibility and attractiveness. Most cults have leader myths - stories and legends passed from member to member concerning the life and time of the cult leader. What is the purpose of such myths? Cults require members to engage in extreme behavior - that extreme behavior arouse dissonance; we are more likely to comply with extreme requests if common means for reducing our dissonance are not available (eg. Derogating the requester) and we can rationalize our extreme actions - we must do it for God and to "the son of God" or, at least, blessed by a divine purpose. Anybody in his or her right mind should seek to identify with and be like such a holy person.
Send members out to proselytize the unredeemed and to fund raise for the cult. Witnessing to the unconverted has the obvious advantage of bringing in new members. Perhaps just as important, proselytizing can ensure that members are constantly engaged in self sell, or self generated persuasion. The act of witnessing requires the member to state anew to many different people the positive advantages of being in a cult. In arguing to convince others, members convince themselves. In testimonials given to other cult members, many cults encourage members to embellish how bad they were before joining the cult. The worst you were, the more approval you receive from the group. By constantly recounting these stories, cult members come to believe in the power of the cult to effect change and how hopeless they would be without it.
Distract members from thinking "undesirable" thoughts. Most cult doctrines are hard to take seriously, must less accept. The cult member, especially a new recruit, is likely to question and counter argue basic points. Teaching that any "disagreeable thought" is evil and from the devil. Members become their own mind police. Control your own thoughts, or at least the expression of those thoughts.
Fixate members' vision on a phantom. The successful cult leader is always dangling a notion of the promised land and a vision of a better world before the faithful. If is also likely that most new recruits will be in a state of despair. Phantoms can establish hope - a powerful motivator of human behavior - by providing a sense of purpose and mission.
Effective propaganda relies on heuristics and appeals to the emotions.
Its propaganda's effect for the most part must be aimed at the emotions and to a very limited degree at the so called intellect. We must avoid excessive intellectual demands on our public. The receptivity of the great masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, by their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.
Acceptance of the idea that persuasion was to start at the top of society and be directed downward toward the masses. It was the responsibility of the ruling elite to make the decisions and then inform the masses of the wisdom of those decisions through propaganda; the responsibility of the masses was to follow. And what better role for the masses, since, by and large, they are ignorant and cannot think.
COUNTERACTING THE TACTIC OF PROPAGANDA
Third person effect - in communication - a tendency to believe that the mass media will have a greater effect on others than on oneself - "I will mot be influenced, but others may very well be persuaded." Simply because we think we are immune to persuasion does not necessarily mean we are immune.
We often watch the mass media while we are in a mindless state. The communications are typically just not that involving or interesting. But, ironically, that often makes them all the more persuasive. In such cases, despite knowing that the advertiser is "out to get us," we still do not make much of an attempt to refute the message and, as a consequence, are often persuaded.
Forewarning seem to say "Watch out, I'm going to try to persuade you," and people tend to respond by marshaling defenses in two ways - by playing attitudinal politics and by preparing a possible rebuttal to the anticipated communication. By attitudinal politics we mean holding and expressing an opinion not because it is believed but in order to secure some strategic purpose. For example, many people dislike having their perceived freedom threatened by a communication and thus seek to appear independent but consistent. When these motives are invoked, the goal is to appear unpersuaded - regardless of the merits of the communication. On the other hand, there are times when one seeks to appear informed, reasonable, and open to discussion. In such cases, a forewarning may result in more persuasion, or at least becoming more moderate in one's opinion. As a result of attitudinal politics, the effects of forewarning may be short lived. As the audience for our beliefs or the strategic purpose for why we hold an opinion changes, so does the opinion. On the other hand, a forewarning has little effect when an individual is distracted from fully thinking about the message or has little time or opportunity to prepare a defense. Under certain conditions, even a clear forewarning will not always lead to an attempt to refute the message. One of these conditions is when the recipient believes the message or topic is unimportant.
Stealing thunder - revealing the negative information about oneself or about the issue at hand before it is revealed by an opponent or others. Supposed if you are faced with a situation in which negative information can be revealed that will hurt your cause. What can be done to limit the impact of the attack?
A concession coming from your mouth is not nearly as hurtful as an exposure coming from your opponent's. We cannot be forgiven for a wrongdoing we have committed and tried to cover up.
Why it works - first it enhances one's credibility; it shows that you are fair and willing to look at al the evidence regardless of its unfavorability to your cause. Second, it indicates to the audience that the negative information isn't all that bad (you're willing to admit it), and thus it takes the "sting" out of the potentially damaging information.
Inoculation technique - increase resistance to persuasion - if people receive prior exposure to a brief communication that they are able to refute, they then tend to become "immunized" against a subsequent full-blown presentation of the same argument, in much the same way that a small amount of an attenuated virus immunizes people against a full blown attack by that virus.
Prior exposure, in the form of a watered down attack on our belief, produces resistance to later persuasion tactics because 1 we become motivated to defend our beliefs and 2 we gain some practice in doing so. We are better equipped to resist a more serious attack.
Monitor your emotions - get out of the situation and then analyze what is going on or redefine the situation mentally until you can escape
Explore the motivation and credibility of the source of the communication
Think rationally about any proposal or issue - what is the issue, what labels and terms are used to describe it, what courses of action are being discussed, what are the supporting and opposing arguments and how cogent are these arguments.
Don't base your evaluation on what someone says but on what the person actually does
When everyone is doing the same thing, use this as a cue to ask why
Avoid being dependent on a single source of information. One of the hallmarks of intense propaganda is centralized communications for a single perspective

Subject: Re: Age of Propaganda: The Everyday Use and Abuse of Persuasion Mon 04 Jan 2010, 5:26 pm
and this from another Amazon reviewer (really good summaries here)....
http://www.amazon.com/review/RJEFHW65EE6VV/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm
Peoples' data-processing capabilities are limited. In the information-dense world people are unable to critically review all the information they receive. In order to be adequate to the situation, they resort to so-called heuristics, simple cues or rules for solving the problem. Heuristics are based on peoples' previous experience in similar situations. Although relying on heuristics is sometimes a useful way of dealing with the onslaught of the decision-rich environment, basing our decisions primarily on heuristics can present some problems. First, heuristic cues that we possess may be false. Furthermore, a rule may be appropriate in certain situations but be misapplied in others. Another serious problem is that heuristics can be easily faked and manipulated. Knowledge of heuristics enables propagandists to control peoples' course of action.
The authors did a research of propaganda techniques and set four stratagems of persuasion:
1. You create favorable climate for the massage (called pre-persuasion). You subtly outline what picture has to be drawn in the end. Here you decide what way thoughts and perceptions of the audience will be shaped and channeled. Having established right basis for further discourse you secure the results you seek. At this stage you should identify some statements as axioms, i.e. `what everyone takes for granted' and `what everyone knows'. You attribute labels (positive or negative) to objects of further discussion, put black-or-white colors in non-disputable way. You use generalities to depict the situation - they are usually so ambiguous that you may change their meanings in the future. You use rumors and gossips.
2. You create a `source credibility', i.e. establish a favorable image in the eyes of the audience. The message must come from `experts' or `unbiased' and, of course, personally attractive communicators. Try to switch on the self-persuasion mechanism of the audience.
3. You create a message that focuses the target's attention and thoughts on exactly what you want them to think about. Research has identified at least five conditions that are likely lead to heuristics. Heuristics are most likely to be used when people do not have time to think carefully about the issue, when they are so overloaded with information that it becomes impossible to process it fully, or when they believe that the issues at stake are not very important. Heuristics are also used when people have little other knowledge or information on which to base a decision and when a given heuristics comes quickly to mind as they are confronted with a problem.
4. You create an emotion of the target that will help you channel thoughts of audience in right direction. Fear appeals are most effective when they raise high levels of fear and suggest a doable and effective responses (the authors also explain why sometimes fear does not work). Guilt: once we are filled with guilt, our thoughts and behavior are directed towards ridding ourselves of this feeling that's where propagandists take advantage of us. Feeling of obligation and indebtedness: large initial request and immediate concession by the requester invokes the norm of reciprocity -we concede. Feeling of commitment based on our desire to be self-consistent. For example, to `soften up' the target you make him involved in a much smaller aspect of the action. This serves to commit the individual to `the case'. Once people are thus committed, the likelihood of their complying with the larger request increases. Another way is to show uniqueness of the offer (scarcity sells). Use the `minimum group paradigm': You are on my side (never mind that I created the terms); now act like it and do what we say. Etc.
The book can be used by target audience to learn persuasion techniques and withstand or organize propaganda tricks. The book is entertaining, rich in vivid examples, and ... has everything to be a success in conveying authors' ideas. Instructive. Great read overall.

Mission statements are provided by organizations themselves. Each states, in the organization’s own words, what it hopes to achieve.
What to look for
The organization’s mission should be consistent with your own giving objectives. Moreover, the organization’s actual activities and achievements should advance its stated mission. If not, that may indicate that the organization is on the wrong strategic course, and not paying adequate attention to its basic direction and use of resources.
Why we include it
We think the mission statement is one of the first places to look in choosing beneficiaries for contributions. It reflects the organization’s highest aspirations for its activities. These should be consistent with your own giving objectives.
Caveat
The mission merely reflects an organization’s goals. Its actual performance may fall short of these objectives.
Activities
What to look for
The organization’s activities and achievements should be consistent with your own giving objectives. Special attention should be paid to the amount of resources devoted to, and achievements in, those areas you value most highly. Also, activities should be evaluated against the organization’s stated mission. If activities do not match the mission, that may indicate that the organization is on the wrong strategic course, and not paying adequate attention to its underlying goals.
Caveat
The organization’s programmatic activities are among the most important indications of its success in advancing its goals. However, programmatic success is often hard to measure. Quantitative measures must be taken as no more than one indicator of performance. An organization can serve a large number individuals, and yet provide little benefit to each. In that regard, we suggest donors also review the Program Evaluation section of this report. Moreover, other aspects of operation, such as efficiency, are important as well. Therefore the description of organization’s activities must be viewed in the overall context of all indicators.
Background: Summary of IRS Regulations Regarding Grants by US Charities to Foreign Organizations
Under US law, nonprofit organizations which can accept tax deductible contributions may make grants to charities which themselves are not permitted to accept contributions that are tax deductible in the US. A common example are donations to US charities that grant funds to Israeli charities. Many of the American charities are called American Friends of XYZ Israeli charity.
Here is a brief summary of the relevant regulations the IRS imposes to assure contributions to the US organization are deductible.
a. The American and Israeli charities must be independent organizations. The American charity “cannot serve as agent for or conduit for” the Israeli charity. In particular the American charity may not accept tax deductible contributions from US donors and then simply turn the proceeds over to the management of the Israeli charity.
b. Under IRS regulations, if an Israeli charity desires a grant from a US charity, it must submit a grant request that specifies the use to which the funds will be put. The US charity board has complete discretion to award the grant or not and must review each request to assure that it meets US charity’s purposes and objectives.
c. If the US charity approves a grant to the Israeli charity, it “must ensure the use of funds for permitted purposes by limiting distributions to specific projects that further [the American charity’s] purposes. [The American charity] also needs to retain control and discretion as to the use of the funds.” The American charity may not earmark donations for the Israeli charity in the sense that it guarantees to any donor that funds will be transferred to the Israeli charity.
d. The Israeli charity must furnish the American charity’s board “a periodic accounting to show that the funds were expended for the purposes which were approved by the [American charity’s] board of directors.”
f. The American charity may withdraw the grant at any time.
IRS regulations do not require that the details of grants as described above be disclosed to the public. However, Tzedakah, Inc.’s transparency standards require publication of (a) the particular activities financed by granted funds, (b) amounts granted to finance each activity, (c) review of the impacts of grant-financed activities and (d) relevant accounting of the uses of granted funds.
When grant-making is a major activity of the American charity, it is likely to be required to report to the IRS accomplishments achieved through activities sponsored by its grants using “specific measurements such as clients served, days of care provided, number of sessions or events held, or publications issued.” If the output of activity supported by grants is intangible such as research, the American charity is likely to be required to “describe the activity’s objective, for both [the current] period and the longer-term goal.” The information described in this paragraph would be included in the annual information form filed with the IRS which is available for public inspection.

Program Evaluation
What to look for
Charities should regularly review the successes and failures of their activities and they should report to perspective donors the methods and results of those reviews. While the effectiveness and efficiency of any charity’s programs can often be very difficult to measure, charities should nevertheless seek out the best — if still imperfect — ways to learn about the impacts of their activities on targeted beneficiaries and society at large. Donors should review and assess various charities methods for measuring and responding to both successful and unsuccessful programs. Tzedakah, Inc. believes that continuous and thoughtful consideration to determine what “success” means and how it can be assessed can help to better focus nonprofits’ activities.
Useful techniques can include (a) performance measures like the number of students in job training programs who get and hold good jobs after training and how many don’t, and (b) techniques to determine who are most (and least) likely to benefit from the charity’s services, for example, which among those requesting scarce food, clothing, and housing are the most needy and what methods are used to select them for benefits? Charities involved in outreach should learn (and report) the effects of their programs on those who use them. For example, what proportion of those who encounter the program increases religious observance or increases their support of Israel? Some charities might retain independent outside experts to analyze programs’ successes and failures. Also, surveys of stakeholders can help shed light on the impacts of charitable activities. Decision makers can have active programs to remain familiar with current research on the best practices for achieving their goals. That might include, for example, attendance at training programs or college courses. Staff views should be routinely and actively solicited regarding program failures, challenges, and weaknesses as well as successes.
Attempts to measure successes and failures can be costly, but not measuring them can lead to a complete waste of resources.
Caveat
Measures of impact are often difficult to understand and to compare between different charities. Moreover, many charities will have a natural inclination to select those measure of impact that show them in the best light. Nevertheless, Tzedakah. Inc. believes every charity can and should be able to describe how it tries to identify and use successful activities while it seeks to avoid unsuccessful approaches.
Endorsements, Supporters, and Awards
What it is
This section provides a list of special recognition the organization has received in the form of written endorsements, major financial grants, and awards.
Why we include it
External recognition can be a valuable source of information about the quality of a nonprofit organization. External recognition may reflect in-depth knowledge about the organization on the part of the group or individual granting the special recognition.
What to look for
The more items listed in this section the better. More reliance should be placed on recognition from people and organizations you know and respect than those you do not. More recent approbations should be given more weight than those that are several years old. Look for evidence of a first-hand knowledge of the work, accomplishments, and leadership of the organization in question. In the case of a letter of endorsement, check to see how strongly the writer encourages donations to the particular organization and how well the writer appears to know its operations. The more information that is provided about any particular recognition, the better able you will be to assess its quality. We do not recommend that heavy reliance be placed on a mere assertion that the organization has received this or that endorsement. Be sure to click on relevant links to get more detail about the exact nature of the recognition received.
Caveat
The extent of familiarity with an organization that is implied by a particular form of recognition can vary a great deal. Endorsements by distinguished individuals, for example, may or may not indicate that the individual is thoroughly familiar with the organization. As with all criteria for evaluating a nonprofit, recognition by other organizations and individuals is only one of many measures, and the organization should be evaluated in its entirety.
Chief Executive Officer
Why we include it
The chief executive officer is responsible for leading the organization on a day-to-day basis, and for providing informed input and advice to the board as it seeks to oversee and guide the organization. Information about the CEO’s background provides an indication of his or her ability to do the job.
What to look for
The chief executive officer should have the necessary education, skills, and experience to effectively perform his or her leadership role. Check the CEO’s bio for the relevance of her or his formal education and work history to the demands of the current position.
Caveat
As with all criteria for evaluating a nonprofit, the CEO’s background is only one of many measures, and the organization should be evaluated in its entirety.
Board and Officers
Why we include it
The board is the ultimate governing authority for the organization. The board’s job is to choose, supervise, and evaluate the organization’s CEO, set the organization’s strategy, policies, and procedures, and assure the adequacy of resources. This obligation includes such duties as establishing the CEO’s job description and compensation; oversight, review, and approval of major programs and budgets, and assurance that adequate financial controls and effective policies and practices are in place. It is, therefore, important that the board be active and effective.
What to look for
Boards that meet infrequently or whose members devote little time to their board service may not be exercising the necessary oversight and guidance for the organization. With regard to size, governing boards should be large enough to do their work but not so large as to be unwieldy. Generally smaller organizations with straightforward missions and finances might get by with fewer meetings and smaller boards. Larger organizations with more complex programming and finances would require more meetings and larger boards.
Caveat
While an active and involved board increases the likelihood that an organization will be effective, it is possible for an organization to be effective with little or no board input, and for active, involved board to be ineffective.
Years on the Board
Why we include it
In order to balance the benefits of a fresh perspective with the value of experience and continuity, board membership should reflect a balance between relatively new members and those who have been on the board for several years. In addition, a board too heavily weighted toward long-standing members may run into succession problems should a large number retire from the board simultaneously.
What to look for
Board membership should reflect a roughly even mix among those members who have served fewer than three years, those who have served between three and eight years. Very few board members should serve over eight years.
Caveat
As with all criteria for evaluating a nonprofit, board tenure balance is only one of many measures, and there can be extenuating circumstances to justify a heavy weighting toward one end of the spectrum or the other. For example, a new organization will necessarily have more board members who have served a short period of time.
Hours of Service
Why we include it
Independent oversight and guidance is very important to effective and efficient operation of any organization. Nonprofit boards should actively partner with management to help achieve the organization’s mission. Moreover, the board should serve as representatives of the public, and oversee management to be sure that the mission is being advanced effectively, efficiently and ethically. Performance of these responsibilities requires time to gain an understanding of the organization’s mission, program, and finances, as well as time to participate in the organization’s governance.
What to look for
The number of hours board members should devote to their duties depends on the organization. Smaller organizations with straightforward missions and finances might get by with board members spending relatively little time serving the organization. In some cases, attendance at three or four board meetings a year, with a few hours spent in preparation for each meeting might be adequate. Larger organizations with more complex programming and finances should require that board members spend more time. Tzedakah, Inc. suggests that each board member should devote at least 10 hours per year to the organization. Larger organizations may require that typical board members devote an hour or two a week (50 – 100 hours per year) on average. On each board, some members, especially officers, should devote relatively more time than average. We believe that board members who devote less time than these minimums cannot be performing their function adequately.
Note: Most US-based organizations profiled are required by the Internal Revenue Service to report on the disclosure form 990 the number of hours per week each board member devotes to board service. Unfortunately, most organizations do not seem to provide plausible answers. Typically charities will list nearly every board member as serving exactly the same number of hours per week. Tzedakah, Inc. is skeptical about that uniformity. Tzedakah, Inc. requires charities to ask each board member to independently estimate the number of hours he or she devotes to board service.
Caveat
As with all criteria for evaluating a nonprofit, the number of hours per week that board members devote to the organization is only one of many measures.
Policies and Practices
What it is
The governing board of any organization has the ultimate responsibility for the strategic direction and operational oversight of the organization, and evaluation of the chief executive officer. The board’s policies and practices are the mechanisms instituted to fulfill that responsibility.
What to look for
The board should have in place well-defined policies and procedures that assure that the organization advances its mission effectively in accordance with relevant laws and ethics and consistent with sound financial practices. Larger organizations with larger boards should have in place specific committees to handle special tasks. These may or may not include an audit or finance committee to take the lead on budgeting, and insuring accurate accounting for, and control of, funds; a personnel committee to guide development of personnel policies and the evaluation of the chief executive officer; and an evaluation committee to guide the evaluation of programs and the board itself.
Caveat
Nonprofit organizations can experience great difficulty in recruiting effective and active volunteer board members. Therefore, not all volunteer boards can set up and implement an ideal structure to effectively guide every aspect of the organization. Tzedakah, Inc. believes that the presence of an effective board is a very important “plus” in evaluating any organization. However, organizations can run effectively even with less than ideal board oversight and guidance. Moreover, organizations with strong board policies may not implement them effectively.
Board Meeting Frequency, Attendance, and Content
What to look for
The board should have regular meetings. Tzedakah, Inc. suggests that boards should have a minimum of three meetings a year, with a majority present at all meetings. We ask charities to provide minutes or a summary of minutes of meetings held over the previous year. Minutes should indicate a board that is actively involved in the operations and finances of the organization. In particular, the board should discuss such items as strategic vision, successes and failures of programs, adequacy of finances, as well as personnel and other resources.
Board CEO Evaluation and Salary Determination
What to look for
The board, or its personnel committee, should develop a job description and performance objectives for the CEO against which performance can be measured. The job description and objectives should be reviewed on a regular basis, at least every three to five years. The CEO should receive performance reviews at least annually. Procedures should be in place to establish appropriate CEO salary, based on performance and overall market conditions. These procedures should include a mechanism to assess the current state of the market for comparable positions. Effective CEO salary review procedures are particularly important when executive salaries appear to be high in absolute terms.
Board Financial Oversight and Control
What to look for
Board members should be familiar with financial operations and assure, to the best of their ability, that resources are being allocated as effectively as possible to advance the organization’s mission. The board should determine the scope and frequency of financial reports. Each board member should receive a complete set of financial statements annually and such internal financial statements and reports on operations and organizational performance as are prepared by management. The organization should develop, in consultation with relevant experts, effective policies regarding financial control, protection of assets, and management of risk. By way of example, these policies should cover such matters as the rank and number of individual signatories on checks by size and nature of disbursement, controls for cash receipts and disbursements, safeguarding of assets from theft, balance of investment risk and return, and the approval process for transactions by size and nature of transaction.
Chief Executive Officer
Why we include it
Planning and Budgeting
Board Planning Committee staff inputs.
a) Assessment of needs to be met and measures of ***
b) Determination of inputs to the planning process by staff and leadership
b) Products and services to be provided.
b) Staffing and other resource requirements.
c) Sources and uses of funds
Assurance of Ethical Behavior
What to look for
Ethical behavior. Boards should establish policies to assure the organization behaves ethically in its dealings with donors, beneficiaries, and the community at large. Ethical issues might include such areas as (a) fundraising practices, (b) protection for whistleblowers, (c) treatment of individuals in the care of the organization, (d) employee policies that include appropriate non-discrimination clauses and treatment of conflicts of interest, and (e) policies regarding the acceptance of contributions from questionable sources.
Staffing and Salary Information
Why we include it
One measure of the effectiveness of any enterprise is its ability to control payroll costs, recognizing that any organization must pay wages high enough to attract qualified people, and that staffs must be large enough to get the job done. Moreover, Tzedakah, Inc. holds that nonprofit professionals are fully entitled to earn a market wage, like everyone else, and that employees of nonprofits should not be overworked because organizations are understaffed. Mistreating employees***
What to look for
Top salaries and staff size should be compared with those of organization of similar size, location, and mission. Questions should be raised where top salaries or staff size are considerably above those of comparable organizations. If you suspect that salaries are too high, review the organization’s policy with regard to CEO Evaluation and Salary Determination. Apparently high salaries can be justified if the board or a relevant committee carefully analyzes performance, value to the charity, and market conditions. Salaries that appear to be below market, may be a sign of dedicated senior staff worthy of greater consideration for contributions.
Caveat
As with all criteria for evaluating a nonprofit, salary and staffing information is only one of many measures, and the organization should be evaluated in its entirety.
Volunteers
Why we include it
Effective use of volunteers helps make financial resources go further. Moreover a cadre of volunteers is a measure of the organization’s ability to facilitate and encourage the mitzvah of chesed (acts of kindness), a supremely important Jewish value.
What to look for
Check out the number of volunteers, and the amount of time each devotes, on average, to the organization, where the information is made available. The more the better. The ability to attract trained volunteers like healthcare professionals, social workers, etc. is a particularly good way to stretch limited dollars.
Caveat
As with all criteria for evaluating a nonprofit, the use of volunteers is only one of many measures, and the organization should be evaluated in its entirety.
Finances
What it is.
In most cases, financial information is based on audited financial statements, although the financial statements of some organizations are not audited by an outside accountant. The data provided in this profile represent just a summary of the organization’s financial statements. Tzedakah, Inc. provides financial statements in summary form to make it easier for the non-accountant to see the overall financial situation.
Source of financial data Tzedakah, Inc. obtains financial data from publicly-available disclosure forms provided by the charity to the Internal Revenue Service. These form are available online on the guidestar website. Synagogues, churches, and other religious organizations are not required to file disclosure forms with the IRS. Financial data for organizations that claim to be religious are not generally available to the public.
Special note: Tzedakah, Inc. does not generally present data reported by charities on the allocation of spending between programs on the one-hand and spending on overhead (management and fundraising) on the other. Increasingly that allocation as reported by charities is seen by experts as being counter-productive as a tool for evaluating charities. Consider this quote which mirrors similar conclusions reached by a number of research studies:
“Our research reveals that a vicious cycle fuels the persistent underfunding of overhead. The first step in the cycle is funders’ unrealistic expectations about how much it costs to run a nonprofit. At the second step, nonprofits feel pressure to conform to funders’ unrealistic expectations. At the third step, nonprofits respond to this pressure in two ways: They spend too little on overhead, and they underreport their expenditures on tax forms and in fundraising materials. This underspending and underreporting in turn perpetuates funders’ unrealistic expectations. Over time, funders expect grantees to do more and more with less and less—a cycle that slowly starves nonprofits.”

Net Assets
What it is
Net assets are the excess of assets over liabilities at the end of the fiscal year. Negative net assets means liabilities exceed assets.
Why we include it
The information is provided for donors who want to judge an organization’s need for funds by the amount of resources it already has.
What to look for
The organization should have on hand an adequate level of liquid assets relative to operating expenses and other obligations to assure its smooth operation, but should avoid the accumulation of excessive assets. As a guideline, organizations should have available assets, unencumbered by donor restrictions, and excluding plant and equipment, equal to between three and 18 months of operating expenses.
The accumulation of net assets in excess of amounts necessary for the smooth functioning of the enterprise indicates that the organization may not have adequate beneficial uses for the contributions it receives from donors. Moreover, a large net worth can encourage profligate spending. In evaluating whether asset holdings are excessive, due regard should be given to the need for physical assets used in the provision of services and assets whose use is restricted by donor conditions. According to Jewish custom, funds set aside for the poor should not accumulate unduly, as the poor have urgent needs.
Unrestricted funds
What it is
These are assets on which donors have placed no restrictions with regard to how or when they can be spent. Unrestricted assets are not necessarily immediately available for spending. For example unrestricted assets can include holdings of real estate or other non-liquid assets. Boards may restrict the use of funds to specific purposes like a building or endowment fund (these are sometimes called board restricted funds). But unless restrictions are placed by donors, the assets are considered to be unrestricted.

According to Jewish custom, funds set aside for the poor should not accumulate unduly, as the poor have urgent needs.
Oversight
Why we include it
A reasonable assumption is that audited financial statements are more likely to accurately reflect an organization’s financial situation, based on generally accepted accounting principles, than statements that are not audited. Moreover, one might expect that audited financial statements are more comparable from organization to organization. However, there are no guarantees that even audited financial statements are wholly reliable or comparable across organizations (see caveat section below).
Audited financial statements
The most rigorous form of outside accounting oversight is the audit, which involves an examination of the organization’s financial statements. An audit includes independent verification, on a test basis, of evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures made in the financial statements. For example, letters are written to a sampling of banks, suppliers, creditors, donors, etc. to confirm that amounts reported to the auditors are correct. Each audit results in an opinion as to whether the financial statements fairly reflect the financial position of the organization. Tzedakah Reports indicate any problems auditors have with financial statements. If no auditors’ comments are indicated that means that, in the auditor’s opinion, the financial statements fairly represent the organization’s financial position.
Reviewed financial statements
Reviewed financial statements provide the middle level of assurance by the CPA. The CPA reviews the information supplied by the organization and makes specific inquiries relating to accounting policies, record keeping and accounting practices, actions of the Board of Directors, and changes in business activities. The CPA applies procedures to identify unusual items or trends in the financial statements that may need explanation.
Compiled financial statements
Compiled financial statements are prepared by the CPA based solely on infomation provided by the orgqanization. There is no attempt to check information provided. When financial statements are merely compiled, accountants do not express an opinion or provide any assurance regarding whether the financial statements fairly represent the organization’s actual financial position.
Caveat
Audits do not guarantee that financial statements are accurate or comparable across organizations. First, there are often elements of subjectivity in preparing financial statements, even within generally accepted accounting principles. Thus, two accountants can prepare quite different sets of financial statements for the identical organization. Second, there are limits to an audit’s ability to uncover accounting errors and irregularities, as auditors often emphasize. Finally, recent corporate accounting scandals show that auditors can deliberately or unconsciously tilt financial statements in management’s favor. Therefore, as with all criteria for evaluating a nonprofit, accounting oversight is only one of many measures, and the organization should be evaluated in its entirety.
Nihul Takin (Certificate of Proper Management)
From the Israeli Registrar of Charities (translation below)
ודא/י כי לעמותה אישור ניהול תקין בתוקף
אישור ניהול תקין הוא אישור הניתן מדי שנה על-ידי רשם העמותות לעמותה, אשר עמדה בחובות הדיווח המוטלות עליה על-פי דין. ככל שבוצעה בעמותה באותה שנה ביקורת מטעם רשם העמותות, אישור ניהול תקין מהווה אינדיקציה גם לתקינות פעילותה. יובהר, כי ככל שלא בוצעה בעמותה ביקורת, כאמור, אישור ניהול תקין בתוקף אינו מלמד בהכרח על תקינות פעילות העמותה. לשם כך, יש להוסיף ולבצע בדיקה עצמאית
Source
One should be sure that the charity has a Nihul Takin [Certificate of Proper Management]
The Nihul Takin is granted annually by the Registrar of Charities to organizations that meet reporting requirements imposed by law. In any year in which there is an audit by the Registrar of Charities the Nihul Takin certificate is also an indication that the charity followed proper management. Note that in years for which there is no audit as mentioned above, a valid Nihul Takin does not certify proper management. Therefore one must perform an independent examination…
Public Support
Unless otherwise specified, public support consists of contributions made by individuals, government agencies, federated campaigns (e.g., Jewish federations), corporations and foundations, plus membership dues and proceeds from fundraising events including net income or loss from fundraising events. It does not include revenue from related organizations.
Unrestricted funds
What it is
These are assets on which donors have placed no restrictions with regard to how or when they can be spent. Unrestricted assets are not necessarily immediately available for spending. For example unrestricted assets can include holdings of real estate or other non-liquid assets. Boards may restrict the use of funds to specific purposes like a building or endowment fund (these are sometimes called board restricted funds).

According to Jewish custom, funds set aside for the poor should not accumulate unduly, as the poor have urgent needs.
Temporarily Restricted Funds
What it is
These are amounts for which donors restrict the purpose of the gift or stipulate that it must remain unspent for a specified period of time, or until some event takes place or condition is met. Boards may restrict the use of funds to specific purposes like a building or endowment fund (these are sometimes called board restricted funds). But unless restrictions are placed by donors, the assets are considered to be unrestricted.
Why we include it
In evaluating whether asset holdings are excessive, due regard should be given to restrictions placed on the use of assets by donor conditions. Generally speaking, Tzedakah, Inc. believes that organizations should not accumulate excessive amounts of discretionary assets. The accumulation of net assets in excess of amounts necessary for the smooth functioning of the enterprise indicates that the organization may not have adequate beneficial uses for the contributions it receives from donors. Moreover, a large net worth can encourage profligate spending. Finally, According to Jewish custom, funds set aside for the poor should not accumulate unduly, as the poor have urgent needs.
Program Service Income
What it is
Program service income is income earned from the sale of goods or services such as school or camp tuition, fees for medical services, and so on.
Investment Income
What it is
Investment income includes interest, dividends, and capital gains or losses. Some organizations do not count unrealized capital gains or losses as part of revenues. Tzedakah Reports includes all capital gains whether realized or not as revenues. Where Tzedakah Reports practices differ from those of the organization, that is pointed out in a note at the bottom of the page.
Permanently Restricted Funds
What it is
Amounts which donors specify may not be spent. Only income from these funds may be spent for either specified or unspecified purposes. Boards may restrict the use of funds to specific purposes like a building or endowment fund (these are sometimes called board restricted funds). But unless restrictions are placed by donors, the assets are considered to be unrestricted.
Why we include it

Moreover, a large net worth can encourage profligate spending. Finally, According to Jewish custom, funds set aside for the poor should not accumulate unduly, as the poor have urgent needs.
Personnel Training and Development
Why we include it
Nonprofit organizations should recognize that training and development is important to allow personnel to maintain and develop technical and professional skills and to keep up with innovations in the profession. In addition, staff may be able to benefit from training in areas such as community relations, ethics, safety, computer skills, and changing law. Board members could improve the the quality of their service with appropriate training. Spending on training and development often is counted as overhead expenditures, which some donors view as unproductive. However, the smart donor will recognize that thoughtful spending on training can improve the quality of service and reduce costs in the long run.
What to look for
Charities should consider spending on such training and development options as college and university courses, training programs, access to relevant professional publications, in-house training, and attendance at professional seminars and conferences. Tzedakah, Inc. strongly encourages thoughtful expenditures on the development of human resources, which are charities’ most valuable assets. For their part, donors should encourage such spending and reward charities that show they have thoughtfully allocated funds to develop their human resources.
Board Self-Evaluation
What to look for
An effective board should evaluate its own performance on a regular basis, perhaps annually. The board should establish explicit standards against which to measure itself. Some illustrative questions the board might usefully discuss are: (1) Does the board effectively guide operational activities of staff? (2) Does the board’s make-up include necessary skills and representatives of major stakeholders? (3) Does the board effectively monitor the organization’s financial and programmatic developments? (4) Is the work-load shared optimally among the various members of the board? (5) Does the board effectively supervise, evaluate, and reward the chief executive?
Board Policies to Assure Ethical Behavior
What to look for
Boards should establish policies to assure the organization behaves ethically in its dealings with donors, beneficiaries, and the community at large. Ethical issues might include such areas as fundraising practices, protection for whistleblowers, treatment of individuals in the care of the organization, employee policies that include appropriate non-discrimination clauses, and policies regarding the acceptance of contributions from questionable sources.

Soar Like An Eagle – The Start Of Something Huge
I’ve written a few posts about the beginning. The excitement that you feel when you start something new. A relationship, a business, whatever it is it is full of possibilities. The possibilities are endless. It can turn out to be something great, the start of something huge. The beginning is the best time and with perseverance, soon you will be soaring like an eagle.
I have two daughters who are currently attending college. This post is about my oldest daughter, Nicole. She will graduate in December from the University of Central Florida. Her degree will be Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and Exercise Science. She is also a certified personal trainer and is spreading her wings, getting ready to soar. She is opening her first business, SOAR Fitness, and will be conducting personal training, as well as, group classes. Her website is soar-fit.com.
Big DREAMS
It is exciting to watch your children venture out on their own knowing they have everything to succeed. Her journey is just beginning. I have taught her to enjoy every step. Enjoy the good, the bad, and the ugly. Nicole has big DREAMS. She knows what she wants and is driven to achieve it.
She decided to help people to become physically fit in college. Ever since making her decision, she has been focused. We have been updated on her plans for the last couple of years. I now see how committed she is to her decision. It will happen no matter what. She has written down her goals and formulated plans.

Soon She Will Be Soaring Like An Eagle
Nicole works on her plans daily and, I can see how much she believes in herself. She is quickly developing FAITH! When you have FAITH, nothing can stop you. I know when I talk to someone if they believe in their dreams or not. Nicole does and, soon, she will be soaring like an eagle – the start of something huge.
She already has begun training clients and, there will be more to come. In the future, she will have her clothing line, a brand of supplements, swimwear, and fitness app. Her big dream is to open up her gym.
The Mind-Body Connection
She is currently working on her website and shooting exercise videos to upload. Eventually, she will sell exercise programs online. She is developing an eight-week program to build muscle and reduce body fat.
Nicole’s philosophy is to strengthen the body and the mind together. A strong mind will lead to a strong body. Developing a person’s mentality along with physically strengthening their body will lead to sustainable results. Soon her clients will be soaring like an eagle.

Aquesta matinada s'han tornat a avistar senglars a Platja d'Aro, aquest cop passejant al passeig marítim. Davant de la presència creixent de famílies de porcs senglars als carrers dels pobles i ciutats de costa, els agents del medi rural demanen prudència. Aconsellen aturar immediatament el vehicle si es topa amb un d'aquests animals ja que són robustos i poden generar destrosses i avisar immediatament la Policia. Recorden que no els hem de tocar perquè són animals salvatges i que és important no alimentar-los perquè tornaran.

Els Premis Ciutat de Benicarló constitueixen a dia d’avui la plataforma més potent de captació de talent literari i de difusió de la literatura del Maestrat i ocupen un lloc que es consolida en cada edició en el panorama dels premis literaris en llengua catalana, que, com és sabut, conformen en bona mesura la maquinària de reproducció de la literatura en aquesta llengua. Els Premis es dediquen a gèneres que defugen la convencionalitat del camps més trescats: la novel·la, la poesia i el teatre. Dedicats a l’àlbum infantil il·lustrat, la divulgació científica, la narrativa memorialística i la gastronomia, semblen cercar una diversificació en què l’editorial Onada ha anat obrint nínxols de producció.
Alfred Giner Sorolla. La passió i la lucidesa implica en bona mesura la consagració literària de la seua autora, Amàlia Roig, que disposava anteriorment de dos llibres publicats: Un viatge fora forat: entre el Delta de l’Ebre i les Columbretes i Xarxa prima, obres que cal adscriure al memorialisme, la no-ficció i l’autoficció, un territori literari propici per a una biografia del caire que té Alfred Giner Sorolla, que s’inscriu a la perfecció en l’univers literari de l’autora, fixat fermament en l’eix del seu poble natal: Vinaròs. El premi, doncs, és el reconeixement per una obra que suposa una fita sòlida en una dedicació de temps a la conformació literària d’un univers vinarossenc que l’autora, que ha viscut amb un peu a Sant Cugat del Vallès i l’altre al seu poble, reconstrueix per a una sensibilitat literària molt personal i, alhora, molt característica.

Un viatge fora forat
He llegit amb interès Un viatge fora forat d’Amàlia Roig, escriptora de Vinaròs que, com diríem al Maestrat, viu a la capital. I quan diem la capital donem per descomptat que es tracta de Barcelona, la nostra metròpoli. Això que tenim en comú: la residència a l’urbs i el vincle inestroncable amb l’origen (“El meu destí és el meu origen“, que cantaven Orxata Sound System). El llibre és el número 4 de la col·lecció Narratives d’Onada, que el va publicar al 2009.
El subtítol Entre el Delta i les Columbretes ja apunta a la coberta el sentit del viatge. Es tracta d’un viatge al país de la Ilercavònia, aquell territori mental de la continuïtat central dels Països Catalans, contradictori en la seua unitat fragmentària. Malgrat els referents marítims, l’itinerari que descriuen els 21 capítols s’endinsa fins a Tortosa i Morella, indefugibles en qualsevol visió de conjunt que aspire a tindre fonament. Se m’escapa l’expressió del títol “fora forat”. No la trobo en cap diccionari i barrino si deu ser un ús comú del topònim Fora Forat, conegut actualment sobretot per donar nom a una de les platges més concorregudes de Vinaròs, i antigament al barri de Sant Pere, que hi havia des d’antic fora murada, habitat per pescadors. La preposició, lexicalitzada en el topònim, va acabar donant nom també als habitats: forinyo. Aquí, doncs, “fora forat” fa esment amb originalitat a aquest viatge fora del forat, del cau que constitueix la llar més pròpiament local. Continua llegint →

Els dolços i els salats als forns de Vinaròs
A la Setmana del Llibre en Català, que aquest 2011 que ara toca a la fi va tenir lloc al parc de la Ciutadella, a la parada dels editors valencians, hi veiem aquest llibre que ens atrau de cop. Certament, l’editorial Onada, de Benicarló, té un gust especial a l’hora de produir els llibres de cuina de la col·lecció La Teca. I això no únicament pel disseny acurat de les edicions, en què es combina una imatge impactant amb el receptari entenedor i a l’abast de qualsevol; sinó sobretot per la tria de continguts que hi apareixen. Lluny de sofisticacions artificioses, els llibres de La Teca són un intent de preservació del receptari tradicional de la cuina del Baix Maestrat, de moment. Com tota cuina tradicional, la del Baix Maestrat és sobretot de subsistència, feta de productes dels que abans es tenien a mà, quan es tenien, decididament estacional, tant en el sentit que aprofitava els productes de la temporada com en el de vinculació al cicle festiu religiós. Una cuina potser en vies de desaparició, de residualització si més no. Tret d’alguns productes amb projecció, com ara el llagostí i la carxofa, tota la resta és una cuina amb una difusió totalment limitada a la societat que l’ha heretada i la manté en els seus usos poc o molt tradicionals. I aquesta societat no és altra que la dels pobles ilercavons a ambdues parts del Sénia. Una societat i una cuina sota pressió de les transformacions de tot tipus que suporten.
El llibre no el coneixia i crida l’atenció per la referència explícita als forns de Vinaròs. Continua llegint →

Ous fregits amb llagostins
L’abril passat, a la fira del llibre de Vinaròs, vaig a presentar-hi Un riu de crims. A més de l’editor, que ha vingut del Vendrell i està content d’haver despatxat uns quants exemplars del llibre en qüestió abans de dinar; hi som Josep Igual, Andreu Palatsí i jo mateix, és a dir, els escriptors en aquesta banda del Sénia que han participat en el volum. A l’hora de la veritat és com si heguéssem de parlar per la ràdio, ja que des d’una taula on les responsables de la fira ens entrevisten, el que diem se sent en tot el recinte. A la taula, s’hi asseuen també dues persones que conec allà mateix: Juanjo Roda i Dani Miralles, autor i fotògraf de La cuina del mercat de Vinaròs, impecablement editat per Onada de Benicarló. El llibre m’arriba a les mans com a obsequi de la meua participació en la presentació d’Un riu de crims, així que com tinc l’autor allà mateix li demano que el dedique a Salomé, que és una gran amant de la gastronomia, segons resa la dedicatòria. Creuem quatre paraules mentrestant. A Juanjo el veig de seguida com un cuiner dels sorgits de l’escola castellonenca de restauració, entre els quals cal esmentar Abel Calvet del restaurant Ram-Sol de Xert i Rafael Gauxachs de la Casa dels Capellans, a la Font de la Salut de Traiguera. Son cuiners jóvens que tenen els conexiements per recrear la cuina del Maestrat de tota la vida. Uns renovadors nats a partir de les receptes més tradicionals. Mentrestant comentem el llibre, Juanjo em parla dels ous fregits amb llagostins, recepta original de Ricardo Serret, que va incorporar al llibre després de tastar-la a casa seua. Continua llegint →

El 24 de maig, el Consell de Govern ha aprovat la convocatòria de 14 nous concursos, quatre dels quals són de selecció al cos de catedràtics i catedràtiques d’universitat i deu, per accedir a la categoria de professorat agregat.
11/06/2019
En el marc de les ofertes públiques d’ocupació de Personal Docent i Investigador (PDI) de la UPC del 2018 i del 2019, el Consell de Govern ha aprovat la convocatòria de quatre concursos de selecció del cos de catedràtiques i catedràtics d’Universitat, adreçades al PDI Funcionari, en quatre àrees de coneixement: Ciència dels Materials i Enginyeria Metal·lúrgica; Estadística i Investigació Operativa, Teoria del Senyal i Comunicacions I Enginyeria Hidràulica.
De les quatre places a concurs, tres estan reservades al torn lliure i corresponen a l’oferta pública d’ocupació del PDI per al 2018. La quarta plaça es reserva per al torn de promoció interna, d’acord amb l’oferta pública d’ocupació de PDI per al 2019.
Aquests concursos es desenvoluparan d’acord amb el Procediment d’accés a cossos i categories de personal docent i investigador permanent (Acord 66/2009 del Consell de Govern).
Així mateix, s’ha acordat la convocatòria de deu concursos de selecció de professorat agregat, quatre de les quals estan reservades per al personal investigador doctor del programa Ramón y Cajal que hagi obtingut el certificat I3, en vuit àrees de coneixement: Ciència dels Materials i Enginyeria Metal·lúrgica; Enginyeria Mecànica; Enginyeria Aeroespacial; Física Aplicada; Matemàtica Aplicada; Enginyeria Telemàtica, Enginyeria i Infraestructures dels Transports i Expressió Gràfica Arquitectònica.
Els concursos es desenvoluparan d’acord amb el Reglament per a la selecció, provisió i contractació de professorat Agregat (Acord 60/2015 del Consell de Govern i Acord 114/2015, pel qual s’aprova l’esmena d’error al Reglament). | ca |
First, apologies for my absence yesterday… another meeting day. It suddenly dawned on me also that school starts in less than two weeks — yikes — when I go on vacation, I really go on vacation…
When I posted on Monday about photographer Edward Burtynsky, I had no idea that he was one of the recipients of TED‘s 2004 Prizes. Thanks to Anna for pointing that out, as well as noting the unique nature of the prizes: promotion of three wishes by the recipient.
I must admit — TED is one of those programs that has fallen through the cracks of my attention span, but after spending a little time on their website, I realize that was a major oversight on my part. So, in order to make up for my ignorance, I’d like to offer up space on sustainablog for addressing the first of Edward’s wishes: “To encourage a massive and productive worldwide conversation about sustainable living.” The plan of execution involves promoting WorldChanging (something I’m happy to do, obviously) as part of a media campaign incorporating Burtynsky’s work along with Sagemeister‘s design. Take a look at Burtynsky’s wishes, as well as those of the other winners, U2’s Bono and scientist Robert Fischell, and offer your suggestions for other ways I/we can promote the ideas that TED espouses (although I freely admit that I see no role I can play in finding cures for brain disorders…).
Finally, I am happy to promote WorldChanging regardless of the situation, and am grateful for their promotion of sustainablog, but, hey, WC folks, who’s a guy got to sleep with to get on your link list/blogroll??? | en |

Quedar sorda als dos anys ha estat duríssim. “Agafa la creu i marxa” la meva frase diaria per poder tirar endavant, el meu art és el reflex de la meva ànima
març 18, 2020 By Mokis
L´anèmia, una patología de la que parlarem avui amb la Naturòpata Mònica Mercadal, la col.laboradora del programa ens recomanarà quins són els aliments rics en ferro que ens poden ajudar a combatre-la.
On està el límit davant les noves tecnologíes?
Com poden ajudar els pares? En parlarem amb el Doctor en psicología i autor del llibre “Nuestros hijos y sus videojuegos” Hèctor Fuster.
També reflexionarem de la importància de pendre consciència dels Arquetips que transita la dona en les diferents fases menstruals, avui amb la Ginecòloga Holística la Dra. Emma Esteve.
Saber dels nostres talents ens ha de servir per poder escollir la vocació més adecuada. El Terapeuta Humanista Josep Guarch a la seva secció de viure amb consciència ens explicará les diferencies entre una feina i una vocació.
Finalitzarem el programa d´avui conversant des de l´essència amb Teresa Jordà Vitó, als dos anys a consequència d´una malaltia es va quedar sorda. Actualment és una de les millors aquarel.listes abstractes tant a nivell nacional com internacional. Gràcies a que va començar a parlar abans dels dos anys a dia d´avui la seva comunicació pot ser més fluida.

La finalitat d’aquest virus no és de salut sino econòmica…. ens ha de portar al pitjor colapse econòmic de la historia de la humanitat… a veure si així fem canvis! sino….. vindrà la tercera crisis i definitiva, on ja no tindrem opció.
Perquè els fa tanta por el virus si no és més greu que una grip?….
1.- per la seva facilitat de contagi i ràpida expansió.
2.- perquè afecta greument a persones grans i amb patologies prèvies, que pot desencadenar un colapse total als serveis d’atenció sanitaria…
3.- perquè el virus no s’aturarà a l’estiu, com passa amb el grip… només cal veure el mapa de països afectats per veure que els països càlits també tenen Coronavirus…
4.- ells saben que un virus pot mutar en qualsevol moment a una cepa sumament agressiva i repetir el drama de la Grip Espanyola. De manera que, les mesures que prenen de cap manera és alarmisme o mesures injustificades…. de fet, jo crec que aquí anem tard. El virus s’ha escampat ja massa i anem en camí d’Italia…. De tota manera, no hem de tenir por. El virus ve a fer Justicia! De moment ja ha aconseguit fer caure les borses de tot el món… que els països prioritzin l’atenció a les families i a les persones…Italia ha parat el cobrament d’impostos i ha suspès a tot el país el cobrament de les Hipoteques… la pregunta és: Perquè aquestes mesures no es van prendre durant la crisis del 2008?…. calia un virus?…. doncs sembla que sí.
Al meu entendre, el virus té un objectiu… fer caure el mon “macro-econòmic”, és qui ha de pagar la crisis que ells mateixos van probocar amb la seva ambició irreflrenable! i que no puguin tornar a passar la factura de la crisis a les persones, que al cap i a la fi, nomes pretenen viure.

Com gestionar i fer un bon ús de la intel·ligència artificial?
març 10, 2020 By Mokis
Una alimentació sana és vital perquè el nostre cos estigui en equilibri i harmonia; parlem amb la naturòpata Mònica Mercadal de com combatre una patologia que afecta a gran part de la població, el restrenyiment. Quines són les mancances en el món educatiu? Reflexions amb el doctor en psicologia Hèctor Fuster; la seva passió és acompanyar a tota classe de persones en el procés de descobrir el seu propòsit de vida. Conversem del cicle menstrual, la influència de les hormones, els cicles de la lluna i la natura amb la doctora ginecòloga holística Emma Esteve. El terapeuta humanista Josep Guarch ens parla sobre el destí i la llibertat d’elecció. La intel·ligència artificial fa temps que va abandonar l’espectre de la ciència-ficció per colar-se a les nostres vides i, tot i que encara en un punt inicial, està cridada a protagonitzar una revolució equiparable o més a la que va generar internet… com gestionar-la? com fer-ne un bon ús? En parlem amb el Pepe Amoraga, emprenedor, visionari i amb una extensa trajectòria en el món de les noves tecnologies en la indústria.
José Corbacho: “No canviaria res de la meva vida, si no, no seria qui sóc”
març 3, 2020 By Mokis
L’artritis reumatoide va ser la malatia que va trucar a la porta de la nostra col·laboradora, la naturòpata Mònica Mercadal. A la seva secció d’hàbits saludables ens explica com va ser la remissió i quins són els hàbits que va adquirir per poder superar-la. El doctor en Psicología Hector Fuster reflexiona sobre com l’educació formal s’ha quedat estancada a conseqüencia de la digitalització i ens respon a la pregunta de què podem fer davant aquesta realitat que moltes vegades sens escapa de les mans. Conversem amb la doctora Emma Esteve, ginecòloga holística sobre el cicle menstrual, un tema moltes vegades tabú i alhora molt necessari: que les nenes tinguin informació abans de la seva primera regla. A la secció “Viure en Consciència” el terapeuta humanista Josep Guarch, amb més de 40 anys d’experiència en l’astrologia ens endinsarà en el coneixement de la personalitat. Com és crea i d’on parteix? És important saber interpretar la “partitura” de la nostra vida. El gran convidat del programa és l’actor José Corbacho, molt a compartir amb el carismàtic professional de l’escena que sempre ens treu un somriure. Ell ens recorda que tot és molt més simple i que a dia d’avui no canviaria res de la seva vida, per una vital raó, si no, no seria qui és. | ca |
This year, we explored the theme of being broken vessels, perfect in original design, broken along the way, yet used by God nonetheless. As we try to love and raise our children, we are trying to be aware of the areas that are broken in us so that God can redeem and repair them. Here are some of the key lessons that were shared at this year's retreat. | en |
The Oyster card was a small revolution in ticket payments when it was launched less than a decade ago, but it seems it may soon become obsolete. Transport for London has confirmed that by the end of 2012, it will accept contactless credit and debit cards at the tube turnstiles, according to The Register.
Card payments on the bus will be enabled earlier in 2012, in time for the Olympics, but due to the work involved the tube will follow only later in the year. While changing the ticket system is quite complicated, it is cheaper for TFL to deal directly with the banks, omitting the Oyster middle-man.
There are some problems related to the project still – such as the time it would take for the system to call up the bank to check if there’s any money available. Commentators are speculating the solution may be to check this later in order to avoid massive pile-ups at the turnstiles, and then catch the cardholder as they tap out to leave the underground system.
I for one will miss the Oyster card, which feels like an integral part of London life. But an all-in-one chip that covers payment as well as travel is appealing too – actually we can probably just go ahead and implant this magic chip directly into our phone handsets?

In the tech world, it’s rare these days to spend more than a few years at one company. So we were curious to learn more about Kristin Wisnewski after hearing she’d been at IBM for 18 years. In her words, she “basically grew up at IBM,” and made a rapid transition from an individual contributor role to a leadership position in 2016, where she now leads an award-winning design team.
We got to know the story of that career transformation, and what it took to get there. We also spoke with Kristin about clearing roadblocks for better work, and how to bring women into more leadership roles at technology companies.
Takeaways:
How to remain authentic to yourself as a leader
The keys to peak team performance
The way DesignOps works at IBM

Ahir va tenir lloc al Consell Comarcal la primera trobada del Consell Regulador de la IGP Gall del Penedès, amb la participació dels sis criadors que l’integren i representants de l’administració.
La reunió ha comptat amb la presència del director general d’Alimentació, Qualitat i Indústries Alimentàries de la Generalitat Antoni Díaz Vendrell, qui ha explicat que el Gall del Penedès és un dels molts productes catalans diferenciats que ha de promocionar la Generalitat en una comunitat on el 19% del PIB té a veure amb la gastronomia, entesa en un sentit ampli. Díaz ha posat l’accent en què una IGP implica la responsabilitat d’estar a l’alçada i ha dit que la promoció es pot iniciar ja a Catalunya i a la resta de l’estat mentre arriba el segell de certificació, és a dir el reconeixement europeu, previst per principis d’estiu.
Díaz ha destacat el bon moment que acompanya l’arrencada de la IGP, amb la celebració Fira Alimentària i el fet que Catalunya és, aquest 2016, regió europea de la gastronomia. Precisament, la fira Alimentària serà la primera parada de la IGP. La Consellera de Promoció Econòmica Susanna Mèrida ha explicat que el 25 d’abril al migdia, el Gall del Penedès tindrà un espai dins la fira amb la participació d’una criadora i dos restaurants que mostraran com cuinar el producte.
El Gall també apareixerà al programa Cuines de TV3 properament i serà present a les jornades gastronòmiques de la Fundació Alícia, el cap de setmana del 30 d’abril i l’1 de maig. Per la seva part, el Conseller d’Agricultura Pere Soler ha remarcat que la IGP donarà a conèixer el territori i revertirà beneficis sobre tot el Penedès.
Des de l’Associació de Criadors de la Raça de Gallines Penedesenca, M. Antònia Udina, ha emplaçat la DO Penedès a treballar plegats per promocionar el gall negre.
Per la seva part, el president del Consell Comarcal de l’Alt Penedès Francesc Olivella ha manifestat el compromís de l’ens per treballar amb el Consell Regulador.
El Consell Comarcal també ajudarà el consell regulador a optar a possibles subvencions.

The development of compact low-power-consuming nano-optoelectronic devices is one of the great challenges to tackle for the convergence of microelectronics and photonics. During this talk, I will review our recent results on InP-on-SOI photonic crystal devices. I will show how these wavelength scale structures allow the achievement of nanolaser diodes and amplifiers which can be densely integrated in a photonic circuit. | en |
Masquerade during the Eyo festival in Lagos, Nigeria. Photo credits: olasunkanmiariyo (via Wikimedia Commons).
This event will take place both online and physically in Leiden. All registrees will receive a link to the online platform one day before the start of the event.
In the Nigerian cities of Lagos and Jos, rituals and festivals are increasingly deployed not only in memory of ancestors, or in the promotion of a particular (ethnic) identity, or as a tourist attraction, but also as political instruments to demonstrate and express ownership of urban spaces. Nigeria is often characterised as a deeply divided state in which major political issues are forcefully or violently contested along the lines of complex ethnic, religious and regional divisions. Currently, the performances of festivals and funeral rituals have increasingly become the sites of struggles and contestation over claims to ‘ownership’ of urban spaces. In doing so, through festivals and other rituals ideas are expressed as to who belongs, who does not, and to who ‘owns the city’ and who does not. This study shows how Nigerian urban dwellers invent and perform festivals and funeral rituals to define belonging and express ethnically based claims of ownership of cities.

Ballar és cosa de llibres és un espectacle escènic participatiu i per a tots els públics. Tu tries si balles, o bé mires com ballen. Una iniciativa que combina la dansa i l’observació de la dansa, el fet de ser ballarí i el de ser espectador, la força d’una experiència física i el plaer de sentir-se seduït per un cos que balla amb un llibre. Un espectacle on un llibre es pot convertir en la teva parella de ball, o el teu acompanyant.
Ballar és cosa de llibres ens embarca en un viatge estimulant, una experiència a mig camí entre la dansa i la literatura, entre la força del cos i la màgia de la paraula. Ballar amb llibres i observar la dansa que es crea quan es balla amb llibres. Descobrir el plaer de ballar llegint, de llegir mentre ballem, de ballar allò que llegim o llegir allò que ballem.
Crítica: Ballar és cosa de llibres

Un joc fresc i lúcid per intercanviar experiències
per Jordi Bordes
La proposta de Pere Faura, Clàudia Solwat i Javier Vaquero es tracta d’una versió del Balla’m un llibre que fan en sessions escolars. El repte és trobar nexe entre la literatura i la dansa a través de l’objecte: el llibre. Si en el taller familiar (i escolar) el joc pretén trobar la relació entre el ball, jugant a convertir l’objecte en altres elements (un paraigües, un ocell, un cavall...) alhora que es llegeix i es deixa seduir per les il·lustracions dels contes, en aquest nou treball hi ha un nou mirall. Ara, també hi ha la possibilitat de ser espectador. En aquest cas, el repte és aprendre a llegir el ball. Això, en realitat, dóna a l’observador eines per entendre la complexitat d’una creació (des del so i la llum fins a la coreografia). Per conèixer què és el focus (on radica el centre de l’acció on es redirigeixen les mirades del públic).
És un enginyós treball en el que el joc sempre hi és present, amb la frescor de notar que disfruten i es diverteixen els propis artistes alhora que il·lustren, pedagògics, els viaranys aventurers de la dansa, com si fos un joc imaginatiu infantil. Potser aquest cop hi ha menys oportunitat per deixar-se seduir amb els mon que descriuen i dibuixen les pàgines dels llibres. Però hi ha un diàleg constant entre el públic que balla el públic que mira, perquè intervé, puntualment, des de les cadires amb el seu llibre per aprendre a llegir un espectacle. En realitat, la peça és un pas intuïtiu en el camí de la prescripció i la crítica...

Poor puppy dies on flight
With another act of negligence under its wings, United Airlines maintains its notorious reign as the most talked about airline. Previous incidents of forcefully removing passengers from seats and leaving a sexual assault victim in harm’s way are just a couple of reasons why this Airline has been generally disliked in the media. The airline’s most recent misfortune concerns that of an innocent animal. A 10-month-old French bulldog, named Kokito, boarded a flight in his doggy carrier, going from Houston to New York. The owner of the dog, who was accompanied by her young teenage daughter, and toddler, stored the TSA-approved pet carrier under the seat in front of her. A flight attendant argued with the passenger, insisting that the carrier was somewhat blocking the aisle. Trusting that the flight attendant would not willingly put the dog in a dangerous environment, the passenger agreed to store the dog and carrier in the overhead bin.
During the three-hour flight to New York, passengers heard soft barking, echoing from the compartment. Before the plane landed, the barking stopped. The owner of the dog opened the overhead storage to find her dog’s lifeless body. The dog died from lack of airflow. Certain dogs, such as the French bulldog, have short nasal passages, and are more susceptible to suffering from scarce oxygen.
United Airlines representatives have commented on the event and assure the public that the airline’s policies do not support the actions of the flight attendant. Pets are never allowed in the overhead bins and are only allowed in the cabin if they are housed in appropriate kennels that fit securely under the seats.
The airline is fully committed to taking full responsibility for the incident and intends to compensate the family in refunded ticket fees and a necropsy for the dog. United promises to implement strategies and policies to prevent this type of episode from happening again. Unfortunately, United Airlines is the leader in animal deaths on its flights, with 18 deaths in 2017. American Airlines and Delta Airlines had two animal deaths each last year.

Perquè els castells atrauen tant la nostra mirada? Per la història que arrosseguen? Per la seva altivesa, pel poder que havien ostentat? Per la representació de fortalesa que potser voldríem per a nosaltres? Potser ens atrau només l’alçada o el paisatge, o la sensació de protecció que s’experimenta des de dins dels seus gruixuts murs?
Penso per exemple en els castells càtars, com l’espectacular promontori inexpugnable de Montsegur, o en la filigrana de Balsareny, en l’inacabat cilíndric de Torroella de Montgrí amb les seves esplendoroses vistes cap a l’Empordà, i en tants altres: Peñafiel enmig de les planes castellanes, Miravet que controla els meandres de l’Ebre, la gran fortalesa de Carcassona al Llenguadoc, o Montsoriu al peu del Montseny … He recordat ara mateix el llibre “Terra de castells”, aquella guia que resumia tots els de Catalunya, i que convidava, amb tota mena de dades i detalls, a anar-los visitant un per un.
Els castells a peu de costa tenen però un gran al·licient afegit: El mar. Castelsardo mateix, que fa pocs dies esmentàvem, Tossa de mar, Peníscola …, tots ells en primera línia de defensa contra possibles invasors.
Vaig descobrir Peníscola per primer cop durant el servei militar (condemna que complia a Castelló). Aleshores en dèiem Peñíscola, i va ser durant les festes de la Magdalena, un febrer de 1978, que ens trobàvem un amic malagueny i jo, després d’un trajecte en tren des de la capital, asseguts al terra de l’ampli terrat del castell, escrivint cartes d’amor a les nostres parelles respectives, mentre admiràvem entre paràgraf i paràgraf les vistes espectaculars de la badia.
Havia tingut jo molt d’interès a poder trepitjar aquella massa rocosa que es perfilava llunyana des de l’autopista, durant els trajectes d’alguns caps de setmana, quan amb el cotxe d’algun altre company de batalletes, podíem escapar-nos alguns caps de setmana cap a casa. Així que començar a recórrer el poble durant aquella primera visita, arribar a la porta del castell del “Papa Luna”, veure les antigues masmorres, i enfilar per les escales que conduïen a cadascuna de les torres i de les estances, mentre la salabror del mar s’escolava entre els merlets i que juntament amb el vent d’hivern feia ressecar els llavis, va representar tota una descoberta, a més d’una bona iniciació en tot el que significa el món d’aquestes construccions.
És podria dir, per altra banda, que resulta una incongruència per part meva denigrar la vida militar i sentir atracció pels castells, però què hi podem fer, la vida n’està plena de contradiccions …

La meva primera estada a Peniscola va ser l’any 1951 o 1952. La meva àvia hi tenia us familiars. No li agradava el poble. Deia que només hi vivíen mosques. He anat diferents vegades. Aquests poblets de costa són ja uns desconeguts per a mí.

The tables below provide the suggested measurements of the body for each size. However, garment style often influences the fit, so we also include the exact measurements of each product across sizes in our product descriptions.
Centimetres
Inches
Selecting your size
Because our clothes are not fitted we have chosen an Alpha (e.g. S, M) size set with the above suggested numerical size range.
With fitted styles like pants take your normal size. For example if you are usually a size AU10, choose S, if you are AU12, choose M, and so on.
Size up if you prefer an oversize fit or down if you like your clothing more fitted.
We have an in-depth blog article breaking down our size guide that you can read here. We also explain how to measure yourself correctly below.
How to Measure
The three key measurements to determine your size are your bust, waist and hip measurements. We list which ever measurements are relevant to the fit of the style in each product description. We recommend you use a flat, fabric measuring tape to take your measurements. For best results, measure without clothes on and in front of a mirror so you can make sure you are holding the tape firmly and correctly. Below is a guide to where to take each measurement however each body is different so please adjust placement where necessary and make sure you are measuring the widest part of each section.
Bust Measurement
The bust measurement is the most important measurement in the majority of our styles. To measure your bust, place the tape measure underneath your armpit and run it all the way around the fullest part of your bust and across your back and shoulder blades. For best results, wear the bra you plan on wearing with the garment.
Waist Measurement
To measure the waist you firstly need to find your natural waistline which is usually at the top of the hip where the waist naturally dips in, mid way between the belly button and bottom rib cage. If struggling, when you bend from side to side, a crease should form where your natural waist sits. Hold the tape measure at one side and loop the tape measure around the front and back of your torso.
Hip Measurement
With your feet placed together, stand up straight and run the tape measure over the widest part of your buttocks and hips. Starting from one side of your hip, run the tape measure right around your front and back to where you started measuring from. Make sure you keep the tape measure as firm and straight as possible.
Hot Tip
Writing your measurements on your phone or sticky note will help you become more familiar with reading size charts and getting a better understanding on how to interpret. With changes to how we shop for clothing changing dramatically over the last few years it can still feel overwhelming. If you spend some time measuring yourself and a few garments you will quickly learn what to look for and feel more confident reading size charts. From my personal experience it definitely takes some of the stress away with sizing.
Measuring a Garment
Alternatively you can take measurements from a style existing in your wardrobe that has a similar shape and you like the fit of. For bust you measure from armpit to armpit and double the measurement. For hips and waist you can measure from one side of the garment to the other where your waist and hip falls and again times the measurement by two. This is a good alternative if purchasing a style you are familiar with. For example, our Satu Dress is our VH version of your classic Smock shape so you can take measurements from another smock in your wardrobe.
You bust is the most 'flexible' measurement because it can be affected easily by what undergarments we wear, how the neckline of the dress sits and how much 'squish' (not a technical term) you can get away with. So we always recommend measuring a few garments to get a better understanding of your range for this specific area.

NEW YORK (AP) — As he played to a crowd of supporters in Robstown, Texas, former President Donald Trump drew cheers as he talked up his first two runs for the White House—and teased a third.
“In order to make our country successful, safe and glorious again, I will probably have to do it again,” he said last month.

That carefully placed “probably” may soon be gone from Trump’s stump speech. Aides to the former president are making quiet preparations for a 2024 presidential campaign that could be launched soon after next week’s midterm elections as Trump tries to capitalize on expected Republican wins to propel himself toward becoming the front-runner for his party’s nomination.
“I’m like 95% he’s going to run,” said Reince Priebus, Trump’s former White House chief of staff. “The real question is, are other big challengers going to run? If President Trump runs, he will be very difficult for any Republican to defeat.”
Supreme Court clears way for Graham testimony in Georgia
Another campaign would be a remarkable turn for any former president, much less one who made history as the first to be impeached twice and remains embroiled in multiple and intensifying criminal investigations, including probes of classified information held at his Mar-a-Lago club and his effort to pressure election officials to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Trump has a history dating back to the 1980s of publicly toying with White House bids only to back down.
But Trump, according to people close to him, is eager to be back in the political game. While he has been talking up a bid since before he left the White House, aides and allies are now eyeing the two-week stretch after the Nov. 8 midterms as a possible window for an announcement, though they caution that he hasn’t made a decision and that—as always when it comes to Trump—things could change, particularly if the election results are delayed due to recounts or a possible runoff election in Georgia.
Trump Organization faces criminal tax fraud trial over perks
Indeed, even as discussions are underway about potential venues and dates for a formal announcement, Trump continues to tease the possibility of declaring his intentions at one of the rallies he’s planned for the election’s homestretch. The preparations come as Trump has been stepping up his efforts to help midterm candidates in the election’s final weeks, hoping to piggyback off expected Republican gains in Congress to build momentum for his own campaign.
Trump has dramatically ramped up his spending after facing criticism for failing to financially help his favored candidates while continuing to vacuum up small-dollar donations. His newly launched MAGA Inc. super PAC has now spent more than $16.4 million on ads in a handful of competitive states, according to the ad tracking firm AdImpact, with additional investments expected through Election Day, according to people familiar with the effort, who, like others, spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal operations.
GOP gains in deep-blue New York’s governor race rattle Democrats
And Trump continues to hold events to bolster his candidates, with 30 rallies so far in 17 states, along with dozens of virtual rallies and more than 50 candidate fundraisers. His final midterm rally blitz will take him to Ohio and Pennsylvania, two crucial presidential voting states where his endorsements helped candidates secure their nominations. He’ll also return to Iowa, which holds the first contest of the presidential nominating calendar.
In total, Trump’s Save America PAC says he has raised nearly $350 million this election cycle for Republican candidates and party committees, including online fundraising solicitations.
GOP bracing for Trump indictment soon after Election Day
While Trump’s team has been identifying potential staff prospects in key states and drawing up paperwork to file should he move forward with an announcement, according to people familiar with the planning, one stressed that hiring has not yet commenced. Trump’s campaign, at least in its early months, is expected to remain headquartered in Florida and look much like his current political operation, overseen by the small clutch of advisers he’s fostered since leaving office—reminiscent of his famously threadbare 2016 campaign.
Chris LaCivita, the Republican strategist who was behind the “Swift Boat Veterans for Truth” campaign that badly damaged Democrat John Kerry’s 2004 presidential prospects, is working for Trump’s super PAC and expected to take on a senior leadership role in the campaign operation, according to people familiar with the conversations, as is Susie Wiles, the longtime Florida operative who has been overseeing his political efforts.
Pelosi says husband faces ‘long recovery’ after ‘horrific attack’
The 2024 campaign will effectively kick off when the polls close on November 8, and potential challengers have spent months carefully laying the groundwork for their own expected campaigns. That includes Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is widely seen as Trump’s most formidable challenger and who has been cultivating a deep donor network as he runs for reelection.
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Florida Sen. Rick Scott, and Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton have been aggressively stumping for midterm candidates, as have former Vice President Mike Pence, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley.
Clinton wants Trump to pay her legal fees after tossed conspiracy lawsuit
Trump, meanwhile, faces mounting challenges. He remains a deeply polarizing figure, particularly after spending the last two years spreading lies about the 2020 election. And while Trump remains overwhelmingly popular among Republicans, an October AP-NORC poll found that 43% said they don’t want to see him run for president in 2024.
Underscoring that polarization, many in Trump’s orbit had urged him to wait on an announcement until after the midterms to avoid turning the election into a referendum on him. Others close to Trump remain skeptical that he will ultimately go through with another run, contending that his ego can’t take another loss or fearing a possible indictment. Others question whether he will ultimately end up on the ballot in 2024, even if he does launch a campaign.
‘Vicious, biased’: Trump assails judge in NY fraud lawsuit
Campaigns also need staff and Trump’s orbit has shrunk considerably over the last two years. Many former aides are expected to steer clear of another effort either because they have broken with Trump, have moved on, or are fearful that involvement could expose them to potential legal scrutiny—and lawyers’ bills. And for someone on the verge of launching a presidential campaign, Trump also remains unusually distracted by legal threats.
There is the Justice Department’s intensifying investigation into how hundreds of documents with classified markings ended up at his club in Palm Beach, Florida. State prosecutors in Georgia continue to probe his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election, as do the DOJ and the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol attack, which recently served him a subpoena demanding testimony.
Trump: Attack on Paul Pelosi a ‘terrible thing’
In New York, Attorney General Letitia James has sued Trump, alleging his namesake company engaged in decades of fraudulent bookkeeping. The Trump Organization is now on trial for criminal tax fraud charges, and Trump recently sat for a deposition in a lawsuit filed by E. Jean Carroll, who alleges Trump raped her in the mid-1990s. Trump denies the allegations.
All the while, Republicans across the country, from high-dollar donors to longtime GOP leaders and rank-and-file voters, have been considering whether they want to stick with Trump. At a recent Iowa Republican Party fundraiser headlined by Pence, voters praised Trump’s time in office but were mixed on whether they wanted him to mount another campaign.
States where abortion is on the ballot in November
“I’d like to see him run again,” said 81-year-old Jane Murphy, a longtime county Republican volunteer who lives in Davenport. “He makes me angry with some of the things he says. But he gets the job done, plain and simple.”
But Carol Crain, an eastern Iowa GOP activist, voiced reservations. “I think a lot of Republicans are just tired of the drama and the fighting,” said Crain, 73. “It’s really wearing. Under their breath, people say it would be nice if he could endorse somebody and go away with grace.”

This week’s Weekly has my review of 1:5:25 at Slought Foundation. Below is my copy with some pictures.
Video is a huge part of the art world and many galleries now include the medium as part of their regular programming. Shows of all video art are less frequent although they too occur. Slought’s “1:5:25” is an all-video show curated by a team of 5 and presenting works by 25 artists or artist groups. A veritable dim sum video banquet of stuttering, fast-paced, culture-questioning videos, the show is good but it raises the question: How much video is too much?
One of the videos at Slought. This appeared on a loop with other videos that used split-screen and pop-culture imagery. I think it’s by David Romberg
1:5:25 decentralized the curating by inviting each of the 5 young co-curators to organize their own “mini” show on a theme. The videos loop on five screens, each dedicated to a different theme: sex, the body, architecture, language or technology. The resulting experience is like going to five shows in one gallery.
Same dancing split screen video–it really is a fun piece.
The individual pieces are short, and some of those I saw are very good. Mariya Dimov’s upside down whirling dervish is a great take on everything from voyeurism to religious imagery to torture; David Romberg’s split-screen hip hop dance sampler shows the same dance moves around the world and is a great embrace of humanity as well as technology; Jennie Thwing’s video of a sock-puppet-like leg snaking its way through a landscape is Pee Wee Herman meets Brothers Grimm—terrific and terrifically odd.
Mariya Dimov’s upside down dervish. A performance/torture/religion piece.
Seating was not available for comfortable viewing when I was there at the crowded opening. But I’m assured there is now seating which is great because standing to watch time-based media is an immediate turn-off.
Alana Bograd’s swirling paintings look bolder and stronger than ever.
In Slought’s back gallery is another show, also, like 1:5:25, part of its emerging artist series. Alana Bograd’s large colorful, loop-de-loop paintings are standouts; digital portraits of mom and dad and digital video by Asher Barkley are worth a look as are installations by Tina Zavitsanos and Aki Torri and deadpan photos by Didier Clain.
Constantina Zavitsanos’ mirror and video piece catches you coming and going. Zavitsanos has a similar piece in her Fleisher Challenge show.
“New Media in the White Cube and Beyond,” a collection of essays on the phenomena of all things new media (video, internet art, game-hacking art, etc) provides examples of alternative modes of display for mediated art. Implied throughout the many essays is the need to engage the viewer and prevent viewer fatigue or frustration for works that demand much more than a painting does. Sarah Cooke’s essay suggests, among other things, “one night stands,” instead of the 30-day show, for work that would benefit from artist-viewer interaction and explication.
Didier Clain’s street photos.
Asher Barkley, portrait of mom done with paint samples.
It’s a great idea and would work perfectly for “1:5:25.” Maybe five one night stands, one for each theme, would allow viewers to get a grip and digest individually what’s presented here as a big smorgasbord.

Política de galetes
En compliment de la Llei 34/2002, d’11 de juliol, de serveis de la societat de la informació i de comerç electrònic, informem sobre l’ús de galetes en aquesta web.
Què és una galeta?
Una galeta, o cookie, en anglès, és un fitxer que es descarrega al vostre dispositiu en accedir a determinades pàgines web. Les galetes permeten a una pàgina web, entre altres coses, emmagatzemar i recuperar informació sobre els hàbits de navegació d’un usuari o del seu equip i, depenent de la informació que continguin i de la forma en què utilitzi el seu equip, poden utilitzar-se per reconèixer l’usuari
Quin tipus de galetes s'utilitza?
En funció de l'entitat que gestioni les galetes, aquestes es poden classificar en els següents grups:
• Galetes pròpies: les que s'envien a l'equip terminal de l'usuari des d'un equip o domini gestionat pel propi editor i des del qual es presta el servei sol·licitat per l'usuari.
• Galetes de tercer: Són aquelles que s'envien a l'equip terminal de l'usuari des d'un equip o domini que no és gestionat per l'editor, sinó per una altra entitat que tracta les dades obtingudes mitjançant les cookies.
Segons el termini de temps que romandrà encesa en l'equip terminal es divideixen en:
• Galetes de sessió: Estan dissenyades per recollir i emmagatzemar dades mentre l'usuari accedeix en aquell moment, a una pàgina web.
• Galetes persistents: Tipus de cookies en el qual les dades segueixen emmagatzemats en el terminal i poden ser accedits i tractats durant un període definit pel responsable de la galeta, i que pot anar d'uns minuts a diversos anys i per tant, pot tenir una durada més llarga que la visita de la pàgina web en aquell moment.
Segons la seva finalitat es classifiquen de la manera:
• Galetes tècniques: Les galetes tècniques són essencials i necessàries perquè el web funcioni correctament i per usar les diverses opcions i serveis que ofereix.
• Galetes d'anàlisi: El nostre lloc web utilitza galetes de Google Analytics. La informació que recullen aquestes galetes es transferida i arxivada per Google en els seus servidors dels Estats Units, d'acord amb les seves pràctiques de privacitat. Per a més informació de les pràctiques de privadesa de Google i com s'apliquen a Google Analytics visiteu: Política de Privadesa de Google Analytics (link is external)

Es rebaixen les penes per als condemnats i exiliats independentistes. Es manté el delicte de rebel·lió per castigar futurs desafiaments al Règim del 78. S'incorpora un nou tipus penal que augmentarà les penes contra la protesta social.
Sergio Linares
divendres 11 de novembre
L’anunciada reforma del delicte de sedició presentada aquest dijous pel PSOE i Unidas Podemos queda lluny, molt lluny, de derogar del Codi Penal tipus delictius d’excepció. És més, amb l’aplicació del nou delicte de “desordres públics agreujats” és molt probable que vegem augmentar el nombre de condemnes a presó contra activistes socials i polítics pels quals fins avui l’acusació de sedició era massa exagerada fins per al lliberticida règim espanyol.
Com quedarien els processaments pel referèndum de l’1-O?
Segons l’anunciat, la proposta del govern de coalició, que compta amb el suport d’ERC, rebaixaria la pena màxima de 15 a 5 anys per als condemnats i encausats per sedició arran del referèndum de l’1-O a Catalunya.
Per als qui van ser indultats, la reforma no afectarà el seu estat de llibertat, encara que sí que podran veure reduïdes les seves penes d’inhabilitació -que passen de 13 a 8 anys de màxim-. Per als exiliats, en cas de tornar, podrien veure rebaixades les peticions de presó.
El repartiment de “gràcia” no és igual per a tots. Carles Puigdemont i els exconsellers Toni Comín i Clara Ponsatí, estan acusats per sedició, malversació i desobediència. Mentre que l’exconseller Lluís Puig i la secretària general d’ERC, Marta Rovira, ho estan per malversació i desobediència el primer, i només per sedició la dirigent republicana.
La més beneficiada seria Marta Rovira, que quedaria en un ventall de 3 a 5 anys de presó. Els tres primers haurien de sumar això a la pena pels altres delictes, que podria sumar uns altres 8 anys, i Lluís Puig a una possible pena màxima del mateix temps.
En quant a inhabilitacions, els ja condemnats van ser indultats parcialment només de la pena de privació de llibertat. Es manté, per tant, la seva inhabilitació i la consegüent prohibició de que es presentin a eleccions. No obstant, la rebaixa a 8 anys d’aquesta pena permetria que Oriol Junqueras pogués ser candidat a les pròximes eleccions autonòmiques catalanes previstes per el 2025.
Evitarà aquesta reforma nous judicis sumaris contra altres dissidents polítics?
La resposta a aquesta pregunta és clarament no. El delicte de sedició desapareix com a tal del Codi Penal, però queda intacte el tipus penal de “rebel·lió”, que té una pena màxima de 30 anys de presó.
L’aplicació d’aquest tipus penal a la protesta social o moviments que desafiïn el Règim del 78, com va ocórrer amb el català, no sols no es pot descartar sinó que és molt probable que succeeixi. Al mateix judici del procés aquesta va ser l’acusació no només de l’extrema dreta de Vox, sinó de la Fiscalia General de l’Estat.
Finalment, el Tribunal Suprem va condemnar assumint les tesis de l’Advocacia de l’Estat, controlada ja pel govern del PSOE. Però l’absència d’un tipus com el de sedició pot afavorir que en següents embats repressius s’apliqui el de rebel·lió amb penes tan dures o més que les que vam veure en la sentència de 2019.
Com afectarà la reforma al dret a la protesta?
çEl més pèrfid de la reforma és que el nou tipus de “desordres públics agreujats” pot acabar sent una nova i més ofensiva eina en mans de la Judicatura i la Fiscalia. L’element que determinarà que una acusació pugui passar del delicte de desordres públics - amb una pena màxima de 3 anys - a un de “agreujats” - amb 5 - serà que l’“alteració de la pau pública” es faci en grup.
El que podem arribar a veure en els pròxims mesos i anys és un enduriment de les penes contra la protesta social. Alguna cosa que, unit al manteniment de la Llei Mordassa i la resta de la legislació lliberticida per part de l’anomenat govern “progressista”, dibuixa un futur immediat cada vegada més autoritari.
Lluny de celebrar la reforma, com fan els dirigents d’ERC i la progressia mediàtica, i malgrat els naturals atacs que li llança la dreta i l’extrema dreta, estem davant un acord entre els qui governen a Moncloa i Palau per consolidar la restauració de la normalitat autonòmica.
L’única solució que podria començar a posar fi a l’escalada repressiva contra la protesta social i la dissidència política iniciada pel govern de Rajoy és l’amnistia per als milers d’encausats i empresonats, al costat de la derogació de la Llei Mordassa i la resta de legislació contra els drets i llibertats democràtiques. Res d’això està a l’agenda ni del PSOE, ni d’Unidas Podemos, ni d’ERC.

ARLINGTON, Texas — No. 10 Arkansas jumped out to a 14-0 lead against No. 23 Texas A&M in the first quarter and appeared headed for its fourth win, but then some questionable decisions plus a turnover and missed field goal allowed the Aggies to take a 23-21 win.
“Well, that was a tough one,” Sam Pittman said. “Give A&M all the credit in the world.
You know, they fought back from 14 down. And, you know, had a couple big plays in there, a big
run, and then certainly a big fumble and the recovery.
“But I was proud of our kids. I thought we fought back in the 4th quarter. We had a chance to win
there at the end. Just, unfortunately, we didn’t. But give A&M credit. They came in. They were
physical. They were well coached. Max Johnson made enough plays. And their offensive line
blocked well in the run.”
The Hogs have dominated the fourth quarter the past two weeks and appeared set to be in position to take a win over the Aggies. Texas A&M missed a 53-yard field goal attempt with 6:30 remaining in the game.
The Razorbacks took over at their own 36 and many felt another winning drive was set to take place. Arkansas took nine plays to move to the Aggies 23 where they faced a fourth-and-12 play. Little came on to attempt a 43-yard field goal that he pushed to the right. It hit the top of the upright and bounced back to allow A&M to get the ball back with 1:35 remaining and run out the clock. Texas A&M (3-1, 1-0) opened SEC play with the win.
“He just pushed it a little bit,” Pittman said. “Didn’t hit it real well, just pushed it a little bit and hit, obviously, the top of the goal posts. After the game, I told him that he’s won a lot of games for us and he’ll win a lot more.
“But, I mean, you know, he’s distraught. But he didn’t mean to miss it. It just didn’t go through. And we had a lot more opportunities than just that, you know. But it came down to that — you know, that play. And just we were unfortunate. But he’ll win a lot of ballgames for us before his career is over, and he already has.”
Arkansas (3-1, 1-1) got on the scoreboard on its second possession when KJ Jefferson found Ketron Jackson for a 32-yard touchdown with 9:44 remaining in the first quarter. The drive was five plays and covered 69 yards taking on one minute, 43 seconds.
On its next possession, Jefferson found a wide open Warren Thompson for a 56-yard touchdown to take a 14-0 lead with 5:25 remaining in the opening period. Little added the PAT on both touchdowns.
To start the second quarter Arkansas had the ball facing a third and four at its own 21. Jefferson scrambled for 14 yards and a first down. This series had started at the Arkansas 15 following another three-and-out sequence for the Aggies. This series marked the debut of running back Dominique Johnson. His first carry was for only one yard. But then he had runs of 12, eight and seven yards to give Arkansas the football a first down at the Texas A&M 38.
It appeared the Hogs were on the verge of going up 21-0, but with first down at the Aggies 38 Arkansas went away from Johnson. They inserted Malik Hornsby at receiver. On first down, Jefferson threw incomplete to Hornsby. On second down Hornsby lost one yard. He was held to no yards on third down. Max Fletcher had to punt.
The Aggies quickly turned the momentum following that series. Running back Devon Achane raced 63 yards on the first play of the drive to take the ball from his own seven to the Arkansas 30. Max Johnson threw a 10-yard pass to Evan Stewart to get the Aggies on the scoreboard. It was a six-play, 93 yard-drive. Randy Bond added the point after touchdown to pull within 14-7 with 8:45 remaining in the first half.
Arkansas then went on a drive of its own. The Hogs drove from their own 25 to the Texas A&M three. They had a mixture of running plays by Jefferson and Rocket Sanders to go with 12- and 16-yard passes to Jadon Haselwood. But on first down, Jefferson tried to jump from the three and stuck the ball out. The fumble was caused by Chris Russell Jr, recovered by Tyreek Chappell who returned it to his own 18. At the 18, Chappell handed the ball back to Demani Richardson who scampered 82 yards for a touchdown. The PAT snap wasn’t good and the Aggies had to try to run it in which the Hogs denied. Arkansas led 14-13 with 3:11 remaining in the first half.
“You know, I mean, it was a huge play, obviously. It went from 21-7 to 14-13,” Pittman said. “It was first down too. You know, we had a list of things. It was a huge play in the game. Unfortunately, it happened to us. But, you know, we can’t do that on first down, you know. If it was fourth down, that’s a different story. Unfortunately, it just got popped out.”
For the game, Jefferson led the Hogs in rushing with 18 carries for 105 yards and a touchdown. He completed 12 of 19 passes for 171yards and two touchdowns while only being sacked once.
The Aggies took the lead for the first time on its first series of the second half. They went 70 yards in six plays with Achane covering the final nine yards for a 20-14 advantage. On its next series, Bond added a 31-yard field goal with 3:48 remaining in the third quarter to put the Aggies up 23-14.
Arkansas fought back on its first drive of the fourth quarter. Jefferson led the Hogs on a 13-play, 74-yard drive with him running it in from the six. That pulled the Hogs to within 23-21 with 10:05 remaining in the game. At that point, many of the 63,580 fans felt the Hogs were likely to be on verge of another comeback.
On the drive for the touchdown, Arkansas got good runs from AJ Green, an 18-yard pass from Jefferson to tight end Trey Knox, 19-yard pass to Haselwood and some nice gains on the ground from Sanders and Jefferson.
That set up for the ending where both teams missed field goals. Arkansas will return home to host No. 2 Alabama at 2:30 p.m. on CBS Saturday.

LES EMOCIONS OBREN L'ESCOLA DE FAMÍLIES DE GUISSONA Aquest dimarts va engegar l’Escola de famílies a Guissona amb la primera xerrada presencial després de la parada de dos any per la pandèmia, titulada "Què són les emocions, per a què serveixen i com actuar davant les emocions dels nostres fills i filles". https://www.guissona.cat/actualitat/noticies/les-emocions-obren-lescola-de-families-de-guissona https://www.guissona.cat/actualitat/noticies/les-emocions-obren-lescola-de-families-de-guissona/@@download/image/escolafamilies.jpeg
LES EMOCIONS OBREN L'ESCOLA DE FAMÍLIES DE GUISSONA
Aquest dimarts va engegar l’Escola de famílies a Guissona amb la primera xerrada presencial després de la parada de dos any per la pandèmia, titulada "Què són les emocions, per a què serveixen i com actuar davant les emocions dels nostres fills i filles".
DIMECRES 23 NOVEMBRE 2022
La xerrada va anar a càrrec de Mònica Gasa, psicòloga especialitzada en neurociència i educació, fundadora de Psicosalut Lleida, professional de Programa Nereu i docent universitària del Departament de Psicopedagogia de la Universitat de Lleida.
Una sessió en la qual una trentena de famílies vam aprendre a treballar l’educació emocional, a com actuar com a models de conducta i com afrontar les situacions que ens toca viure: parlar sobre el que preocupa, ajudar a gestionar les diverses situacions, felicitar pels avenços, potenciar l’autonomia i els recursos personals.
Aquesta xerrada s’emmarca a una programació promoguda pels plans educatius d’entorn de Guissona i Cervera, juntament amb l'Oficina Jove de la Segarra, en el marc del cicle "Escola de famílies" del curs 2022-2023.
Aquestes xerrades, en el cas de Guissona són escollides i consensuades amb les AFES, a les que agraïm la seva implicació.
La propera proposta sobre l’ús responsable de les pantalles tindrà lloc a Cervera, el pròxim 30 de novembre. | ca |

During one of the conversations series organized by the 2020 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), thed iconic fest's executive director and co-head Joana Vicente catches up with Hollywood stars Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan in Francis Lee directed 'Ammonite'. The romantic drama is inspired by the life of 19th century British palaeontologist Mary Anning (Kate Winslet) who was in an all-consuming same-sex love with geologist Charlotte Murchison (Saoirse Ronan). Asha Bajaj brings you excerpts:
To Kate: Your performance is both beautiful and powerful. How did you approach the character of Mary, who was so brilliant, and yet struggled with the constraints of being a woman and a scientist in 19th century England?
Kate: Women's purpose at that time was to only get married to a man in order to have a life and a livelihood. Being poor, Mary did not marry a man in order to lift herself out of poverty. She continued to do fossil hunting taught by her father and felt that by doing this work she was honoring her father’s memory who was long dead. Not accepted by society, and left to work alone led people to believe she was rebellious or demonstrative. I approached the situation by learning fossil hunting for about a month by working with paleontologists and also got arts training from artists since Mary was a good artist.
To Kate: What was most challenging for you during the filming?
My most challenging part was embracing Mary’s stillness. Being an animated person, I had to train myself from not moving all the time. Like Mary, I also had to keep myself aloof. The daily routine I followed was to go home, make soups, write and work scenes for the next day, and go to bed until the routine became anchored in me, which helped me to stay rooted in Mary. It also reduced my anxiety and nervousness about enacting same-sex relationships every day or being panicked thinking about people’s reactions to my accent and to my role. I kept reassuring myself that the things I had planned to do and discuss with Francis would hopefully underpin me throughout.
To Kate: What was the chemistry like with Ronan?
Finally, when Ronan and I started real rehearsals, it was clear that our collaboration would be fun, and rewarding. Having met before and been familiar with each other’s way of working, building our friendship was quite seamless.
To Ronan: You play geologist Martienssen like a real person. What was your approach to this role?
Ronan: It progressed through preparation when Francis and I started talking once or twice a week a month about our relationships, enabling us to take a dip into Mary (played by Kate)'s everyday life. It was important to remember that this was just an imagined version of these people's original stories and their lives and we were giving it a life of its own. I started keeping a diary of Kate, writing down various simple facts like her relationships with family and friends so that when we started rehearsals, we already knew Mary well. Kate and Francis laid more emphasis on my role which built her up.
To Kate and Ronan: The movie had a long rehearsal. Can you comment on that?
Kate: Climbing cliffs and going to cold beaches did not matter. What terrified me most was enacting delicately constructed same-sex relationships with Ronan every day. We used to discuss these delicately written and delicately constructed parts a lot. What most impressed me when I watch this film is the same-sex romantic relationship, intimate relationship in a period setting. They are not hiding, not having to avoid society. They are simply in love and they discover who they truly are through this connection that they form. Same-sex does not really matter. I am proud of that because it makes me feel that Ronan and I along with Francis are part of a big important change here. More of these kinds of stories should be filmed showing that these relationships are absolutely commonplace, not hidden or talked about or salacious. I am very proud of that. Ronan and I did a lot of work in that we were very grounded and connected and never overstated. We enjoyed that side of the story. Neither of us had played such parts before. It was new, interesting and I loved the whole experience. Very honored to be part of the story.
Ronan: I actually felt safe in that environment as well and comfortable because I was with someone that I totally trusted.
To Kate: What was your realisation playing a character in love with a woman?
Kate: Although both Ronan and I enjoyed the whole experience, it made me emotional and I questioned myself [on] how I allowed myself to be steered by writing in the past when I had been a part of something that has been a male and female relationship. So often the part of a romance is a man taking the woman and the woman allowing herself to be taken. It made me feel mad at myself. Have I done that? I am used to speaking for myself. I am strong. But things tend to automatically happen in writing when it is about a heterosexual couple in an intimate setting. There was something so incredibly equal about this that it made me feel quite emotional, grounded, and safe. We are women, and women know what they want. So there was a sort of shorthand that we already had that was fantastic and definitely helped. | en |
El Centre Quim Soler, la literatura i el vi, com a continuïtat del projecte “Terra i vi” que l’any passat va presentar amb el seu creador Josep Barjuan, a la Fira del Vi de Falset, enguany us proposa el projecte intitulat LES CARES DEL VI.
Aquest projecte fa un pas més en l’objectiu de plasmar en el treball artístic els elements de la cultura del vi que en la dinàmica dels darrers anys han estat determinants en la vida i evolució del Priorat.
Aquest projecte vol posar imatges i paraules a la realitat i l’esforç de tota la gent, la majoria de manera anònima, que han fet possible aquesta transformació que ha comportat que la realitat del Priorat s'associï a qualitat, superació, promoció i il·lusió. Són imatges reals de persones que han col·laborat en aquest procés enriquidor i amb aquest treball volem, en certa manera, homenatjar-les i fer-les visibles en l’àmbit de la cultura.
LES CARES DEL VI se centra en una exposició, de caràcter itinerant, el contingut de la qual el formen vint dibuixos i deu textos literaris. La primera exposició va tenir lloc durant la Fira del Vi de Falset els dies 1, 2 i 3 de maig de 2010.
Els dibuixos són de persones, homes i dones, que han dedicat i dediquen el seu esforç al món del vi, en tots els seus camps: pagesos, (en actiu o ja retirats) enòlegs, cooperativistes, treballadors, comercials, etc, que conformen l’ampli ventall de les feines relacionades amb el vi. En tots els dibuixos s’ha utilitzat el vi de les DO Montsant i DOQ Priorat com a part important de la composició. Tots els dibuixos són obra de Josep Barjuan.
Els textos literaris (prosa, poesia, prosa poètica...) són el contrapunt i complement a les imatges, amb la finalitat d’ampliar i completar el lligam entre les persones i tot el seu món, amb la terra que treballen i els treballa i , en definitiva, els identifica.
Són textos breus que permeten una agradable lectura en les exposicions. Els seus autors són una barreja, meitat i meitat, d’escriptors reconeguts de fora de la comarca i d’escriptors residents al Priorat: Pere Audí, Jordi Coca, Fede Cortés, Agustí, Masip i Vidal, Maria-Antònia Oliver , Toni Orensanz, Maria Mercè Roca, Màrius Serra, Emili Teixidor i Roser Vernet Anguera
En el marc de la 15a Fira del Vi de Falset els passats dies 1, 2 i 3 de maig es va fer l’exposició dels dibuixos i dels textos en el Castell de Falset.
Van assistir a la inauguració, a banda del Director General de l'INCAVI, Oriol Guevara Sendra i l'alcalde de Falset, Jesús Torralba López, l'autor dels dibuixos, Josep Barjuan, la major part dels escriptors que han col·laborat en el projecte: Pere Audí, Jordi Coca, Fede Cortés, Agustí Masip i Vidal, Toni Orensanz. Maria Mercè Roca, Màrius Serra i Roser Vernet Anguera, així com Oriol Izquierdo, director de la Institució de les Lletres Catalanes, que col·labora en el projecte.
Han estat patrocinadors d'aquesta iniciativa, l'Ajuntament de Falset, el Consell Regulador de la DO Montsant i la Cooperativa del Masroig.

El passat dissabte 12 de desembre va tenir lloc al Priorat la trobada dels escriptors que donaran suport escrit al projecte LES CARES DEL VI, que té com objectiu homenatjar les persones anònimes que han aconseguit que els vins de les DOQ i DO Priorat i Montsant tinguin ressò mundial.

TERRA I VI
2009
TERRA I VI , dibuixos de Josep Barjuan i poemes de Jordi Carrió és un projecte que es va exposar per primera vegada al Priorat, al castell de Falset durant els dies 1,2 i 3 de maig en el marc de la fira del vi de 2009.
Posteriorment s’ha exposat a Porrera i al Masroig i el Masnou.
El projecte té com a elements centrals una publicació numerada i signada i l’exposició de les estampes digitals i els poemes que la composen i gira al voltant dels eixos vi i literatura – vi i art – vi i paisatge.
Aquesta exposició il·lustra de manera clara la correspondència entre aquests elements, que confereixen un valor afegit als vins de qualitat reconeguda de les denominacions d’origen de la comarca (DOQ Priorat i DO Montsant).
El maridatge entre els nostres vins singulars, que impregnen els dibuixos i inspiren els poemes, és una mostra de diferents expressions de l’art i, alhora, il·lustra l’aposta de futur dels nostres cellers, basada en el perfeccionament i la superació constants.

El pols entre Endesa i el govern municipal de Barcelona pels talls de llum aquest gener té un capítol particular al Raval. Diversos carrers del barri han patit interrupcions del subministrament, tant al desembre per una complexa avaria en un clavegueram, com aquest gener durant l’onada de fred. El regidor de Ciutat Vella, Jordi Rabassa (BComú), ha anunciat una reunió amb la companyia la setmana vinent per acordar com “reparar i actualitzar” una xarxa elèctrica que considera “obsoleta”. La companyia no ho veu així: Endesa diu que té un paquet d’obres fetes al barri que esperen llum verda municipal per a la posada en servei. Si no s’han activat encara és perquè comporten una apagada elèctrica important que deixaria les llars sense calefacció, diu la firma. El districte, en canvi, assegura que no ha rebut cap “pla” ni “proposta”.
En un fil de piulades, el regidor ha reclamat a Endesa “posar fi” als talls de llum al territori, que atribueix al “mal estat o infradimensionament de la xarxa”. A la reunió preveu proposar una “taula tècnica” Ajuntament-Endesa on s’acordin quins són els treballs prioritaris. També vol establir nous mecanismes per fer “seguiment constant de la càrrega de la xarxa”, davant les queixes de veïns per manca de potència elèctrica.
? (2/4) Per aquesta reunió demanem:
1️⃣ Informe de les incidències dels darrers mesos amb persones afectades
2️⃣ Informe de l'estat de la xarxa de subministrament
3️⃣ Pla d'inversions
— jordi rabassa (@jrabassa) January 14, 2021
Obres fetes, segons Endesa
Fonts d’Endesa neguen a aquest diari que la xarxa de Ciutat Vella, com la de tota la capital, estigui “obsoleta” o que els talls siguin un mal “endèmic com diuen els veïns”. Recorda, a més, que a l’estiu va presentar un pla d’inversió al districte i ja té “executada tota l’obra civil”, que inclou “obertura de rases, nou cablejat ja estès i un nou transformador nou”. Ara bé, no han entrat en funcionament encara: “Estem pendents de rebre l’ok de l’Ajuntament per posar-ho en servei, perquè comportarà un tall de subministrament una mica llarg”.
Per fer la connexió amb el material nou i retirar el cablejat vell caldrà deixar unes hores sense llum al veïnat i el consistori hauria preferit que no coincideixi amb l’onada de fred. “L’Ajuntament ens ha dit que esperem i hi estem d’acord, esperem que a finals d’aquest mes o febrer puguem connectar-ho”, diuen portaveus de la companyia. “Una cosa són avaries urgents de resoldre i una altra són plans de millora, que pots programar perquè l’afectació sigui menor”, raonen. Amb les millores en servei, afegeixen, no hi haurà una garantia del 100% que no hi haurà mai més talls de llum, però confien que es reduiran molt les incidències perquè “la xarxa serà més forta”.
“Com abans millor”, diu el districte
El regidor no està gens d’acord amb aquest diagnòstic de situació. Afirma que l’Ajuntament no ha rebut cap pla de l’elèctrica: “Tan bon punt presentin una proposta i un projecte per solucionar els problemes de xarxa al Raval i la resta de barris, jo ho firmo tot”. “Confiem que ens ho presentin a la reunió de la setmana vinent o abans, com abans millor”, declara al TOT Barcelona.
L’empresa sosté que en tot 2020 només hi va haver una avaria destacada al gener i una altra al desembre, en aquest cas més difícil de resoldre perquè implica intervenir en el clavegueram municipal i ha saturat les línies auxiliars que s’havien fet servir per arribar als veïns directament afectats, per exemple al carrer d’en Robador. La companyia diu que aquesta reparació li “preocupa” i està “estudiant diferents maneres de reconfigurar la xarxa” per reduir l’afectació. Pel que fa a la reunió, assegura que està disposada a “col·laborar, escoltar i recollir totes les aportacions” del districte.

Vaig comprar el llibre tan bon punt va sortir al mercat, tot i que fins ara no he trobat el moment per llegir-ho, el fet d’estar abonada a la biblioteca i reservar els llibres per internet fa que moltes vegades se m’acumuli la lectura amb “data de caducitat” i els meus llibres van quedant per mes tard.
Però tornant a l’inici, he llegit aquest llibre d’una volada i l’he trobat senzillament deliciós. Ens explica la història d’una nissaga de dones Maria Roderich (la Vella), Maria Magí (la Senyora) i Maria Costa, que al llarg de quasi un segle han regentat la Principal, el casal més ric del poble de Pous a la comarca vinatera de l’Abadia. Elles són, àvia, mare i filla que han fet prosperar el negoci familiar lluitant amb els convencionalismes i amb l’ombra d’un crim comès el 18 de juliol del 1936. Un cop passada la guerra un inspector de policia decideix resoldre el cas i comença a estirar el fil d’una història plena de sorpreses i personatges inoblidables com l’Úrsula, la vella majordoma de la casa o en Llorenç, el jove capatàs.
.
Passat i futur es lliguen al llarg d’aquesta novel·la on els secrets de la família surten de mica en mica a la llum. La narració abasta des de finals del segle XIX al 2001.
Però no és solament un llibre sobre dones, Lluís Llach ens explica de rerefons els problemes patits pels agricultors amb la plaga de la fil·loxera, l’adaptació a les noves tècniques d’elaboració del vi, la transformació de la dona en el món empresarial, el poder de l’església abans i després de la guerra civil, l’homosexualitat reprimida, castigada i condemnada per l’Església i el franquisme.
Lluís Llach (Girona, 1948) va tancar el 2007 la seva carrera musical dalt dels escenaris. La seva música i les lletres de les seves cançons formen part de la meva vida des de sempre. I ara ens continua acompanyant com a escriptor. Les dones de la Principal és el seu tercer llibre després de “Memòria d’uns ulls pintats”, la seva primera novel·la i “Estimat Miquel” dedicat al seu gran amic Miquel Martí i Pol.

Sensacional! Em va agradar molt! El vaig llegir d’una revolada el cap de setmana passat! Ja vaig disfrutar moltíssim de la memòria d’uns ulls pintats” ( potser, fins i tot, encara més). El recomano. Es llegeix ràpid i té molta intriga fins el final!

‘¿Te está llegando algo?’, de Sara Aliana i Sara Marhuenda, i ‘Pan y Circo’, de Jorge Isla, triats per unanimitat pel jurat
La convocatòria forma part de NEGRE, projecte de programació per a la sala audiovisual del Centre Cultural Las Cigarreras a Alacant, on s’exhibiran els projectes
El Consorci de Museus de la Comunitat Valenciana presenta els dos projectes seleccionats en la segona edició de la convocatòria pública de creació artística audiovisual, Scroll, que la institució impulsa juntament amb NEGRE, el projecte de programació audiovisual del Centre Cultural Las Cigarreras d’Alacant.
Després de l’avaluació i valoració de les 36 propostes presentades, el jurat ha seleccionat per unanimitat els projectes ‘¿Te está llegando algo?’, de Sara Aliana i Sara Marhuenda, i ‘Pan y Circo’, de Jorge Isla, que s’exposaran en la sala audiovisual —Sala Negre— de la Caixa Blanca del Centre Cultural Las Cigarreras d’Alacant durant 2022 i 2023. Juntament amb els projectes de Sara Aliaga i Pablo Isla, se n’han seleccionat dos més de reserva: ‘Animals and Grandmas Try VR’, de Mayte Gómez Molina, i ‘LOOP’, de Tamara García Iglesias.
El jurat convocat pel Consorci de Museus, presidit per la directora general de Cultura i Patrimoni i presidenta de la Comissió Científico-artística del Consorci de Museus, Carmen Amoraga, ha estat compost pel director del Consorci de Museus, José Luis Pérez Pont; la subdirectora del Museu CA2M i assessora d’Arts Plàstiques de la Comunitat de Madrid, Tania Pardo; la comissària i coordinadora de programes públics del MACBA, Alicia Escobio, i la directora del projecte NEGRE, Leticia Cano.
Els projectes s’han valorat d’acord amb criteris de qualitat, coherència, viabilitat, adequació a les línies curatorials marcades per la convocatòria, adaptabilitat a l’espai expositiu, innovació i aportació a la creació artística, per a la qual cosa s’ha posat especial atenció en el desenvolupament de treballs que exploren les possibilitats del vídeo en un context contemporani i s’ha donat preferència als presentats per artistes emergents o susceptibles d’enfortir la seua trajectòria amb aquesta convocatòria.
“Destaca la qualitat dels treballs presentats en aquesta segona edició de Scroll, que revelen la capacitat de reflexió que té el mitjà audiovisual sobre temàtiques vinculades a la tecnologia. El nostre compromís amb aquesta convocatòria és impulsar el talent emergent i mostrar noves expressions artístiques que desenvolupen narratives interactives en la seua forma més experimental en un espai de referència com Las Cigarreras”, assenyala el director del Consorci de Museus, José Luis Pérez Pont.
L’àmbit digital com a tema
La convocatòria Scroll es presenta en aquesta edició com una invitació a explorar l’espai que se situa entre l’aparentment innocent tecnofília i les fosques distopies de la tecnofòbia, una reivindicació de les pràctiques artístiques com a lloc d’experimentació radical per a reimaginar la verticalitat infinita de l’‘scroll’ i explorar estructures que es relacionen de manera rizomàtica, a través de cossos que requereixen altres cossos connectats per xarxes d’atenció mútua.
Sobre ‘Pan y Circo’
En ‘Pan y Circo’, l’oscense Jorge Isla proposa una immersió en el ‘mukbang’, un ritu gastronòmic i espectacle de masses on una persona, denominada ASMR-tist, consumeix grans quantitats de menjar en ‘streaming’ mentre interactua amb l’audiència a canvi de guanys econòmics. L’artista ofereix una sèrie d’estímuls ASMR referents a la manipulació dels aliments, propiciant una sèrie de sensacions d’empatia i plaer sobre l’espectador i ‘ficciona’ una utopia de proximitat i interacció.
El projecte proposa una escenografia immersiva que contempla vídeo, so i escultures que transmeten una visió fragmentada, al mateix temps que caòtica, del ‘mukbang’, la seua simbologia i codis visuals.
Sobre ‘¿Te está llegando algo?’
El projecte ‘¿Te está llegando algo?’, de Sara Aliana i Sara Marhuenda, parteix de la dificultat de convertir la pràctica artística en un treball a temps complet capaç de sustentar econòmicament l’artista, la qual cosa fa que accepte treballs aliens al seu àmbit professional que acabaran aniquilant l’ànim creatiu, fet en el qual ha tingut una gran influència la tecnologització de la vida. Partint del personatge fictici de María, que treballa amb dades en ‘l’app’ d’un banc, i de l’exhibició de l’obra audiovisual projectada sobre un llençol en el festival d’art contemporani documenta de Kassel, el projecte aborda els límits del cos, les seues necessitats i la seua vulnerabilitat, i mostra com podem adaptar-nos a la realitat infinita de la digitalització, a la constància i a la rapidesa que té, a la imposició d’uns ritmes vitals que no podem comprendre des de la nostra finitud.
Sobre NEGRE
NEGRE és el projecte de programació expositiva de TODO BIEN, ubicat en la sala audiovisual de la Caixa Blanca del Centre Cultural Las Cigarreras. L’objectiu d’aquest projecte és l’impuls d’aquest espai com a lloc d’exposició, experimentació i de difusió de projectes artístics contemporanis que exploren les possibilitats de l’audiovisual en el seu ús i context contemporani. A més, NEGRE pretén generar suport a nous creadors que treballen amb el mitjà audiovisual, impulsant i generant condicions que faciliten l’exhibició i la difusió dels seus projectes dins i fora del Centre Cultural Las Cigarreras.

Collaborative robots enable new ways for people to work alongside robots. Collaborative robots typically entail a six- or seven-axis robot arm with power- and force-limited manipulators. Unlike large industrial robots that must be fenced off from humans during operations, a collaborative robot, or cobot, may feature moving parts and sensors that limit torque and resistance. This creates an inherently safer robot that can be customized and automated for human-robot collaboration.
The Collaborative Robot Laboratory at Southwest Research Institute opens new opportunities for our customers and industry consortia to develop agile, mobile, automated capabilities for leading collaborative robot platforms. We develop software, perception, and automation technology that solves technical challenges in manufacturing and assembly where there is inherently a benefit to humans and robots being in proximity. The facility features a flex-lab with collaborative robot workstations in addition to meeting rooms where we host training and industry events.
Collaborative Robots in Manufacturing
SwRI works with industry partners, including ROS-Industrial and Texas Manufacturing Assistance Center, to develop enabling technologies for collaborative robots in manufacturing. Some applications may provide input information or lead to development of new ways to enable humans to train robots on specific tasks. These approaches are equally applicable to traditional industrial robots and are an extension of what has been thought of as a collaborative robotic application. Laboratory project examples and capabilities include the following:
Collaborative robot force control capability
Cobot cable management
Robotic prepreg composite layup
Mixed reality for robotic teaching
Teach through demonstration
Responding to human markings
Robot welding and sanding
Perception and advanced vision
Robot risk and safety assessments
Safety note: when equipped for these types of activities, the collaborative robot presents potential safety risks so additional safety measures must be evaluated.

La pel·lícula està protagonitzada per Chaplin com un còmic acabat que salva a una ballarina suïcida, interpretada per Claire Bloom; altres personatges estan interpretats per Nigel Bruce, Sydney Earl Chaplin, Wheeler Dryden i Norman Lloyd, amb una aparició de Buster Keaton. A les escenes de ball, Bloom és doblada per Melissa Hayden.
Al llançar la pel·lícula, la recepció de la crítica es va dividir; va ser fortament boicotejada als Estats Units i va fallar comercialment. Tot i això, la pel·lícula es va tornar a estrenar als Estats Units el 1972, que va incloure la seva primera projecció a Los Angeles. Aquesta pel·lícula es mostra present a la 45a edició dels premis Oscar on Chaplin va guanyar el seu únic Oscar en competició.

ArgumentModifica
La història se situa a Londres durant la Primera Guerra Mundial. Un veterà còmic anomenat Calvero (Charles Chaplin), alcohòlic i en plena decadència, salva una noia quan està a punt de suïcidar-se intoxicada amb gas i l'acull a casa seva. Després de l'accident, la noia sofreix un trastorn psicològic que fa que es cregui paralítica de cintura en avall. El còmic intenta que la jove Thereza torni a caminar i recuperi la seva afició per la dansa. L'esforç de tots dos fa que Terry, com l'anomenen els pocs amics que li queden, triomfi en el ballet uns anys després.
Però Calvero veu que el seu temps ja ha passat: és rebutjat pel públic en el seu retorn als escenaris. En canvi a Thereza no només se li obre la porta de l'èxit professional, sinó que també té fortuna en l'amor, ja que es retroba amb un jove pianista que va conèixer una vegada i amb el qual no va aconseguir fer-hi amistat per timidesa.
Malgrat el retrobament, Terry es dedica amb devoció a qui ho va apostar tot per ella, i deixa de banda el jove pianista. Calvero abandona el seu domicili i talla el contacte amb la seva amiga, per tal que pugui continuar la seva carrera artística.
El qui un dia va ser el còmic vagabund damunt d'un escenari avui es veu convertit en un autèntic rodamón que guanya unes monedes amb un trio de músics en la seva mateixa situació. Una tarda troba casualment el seu vell productor i el pianista pretendent de Terry, els quals, moguts per la llàstima, organitzen una gala benèfica en honor del famós actor d'altres temps. El dia de la representació, Calvero és ovacionat per tot el públic, i, en acabar la seva actuació, mor després de sofrir un desafortunat accident causat per un atac de cor. Però mor feliç en sentir-se estimat novament pel públic. Mentrestant, Thereza interpreta el seu número de ballet, aliena al que passa entre bastidors. Una generació deixa el seu espai sobre l'escenari perquè sigui ocupat per la següent.
AnàlisiModifica
És l'antepenúltima pel·lícula de Charles Chaplin. L'artista britànic espaiava cada vegada més els seus projectes. Però aquest film està fet a consciència. Chaplin sap mesurar perfectament els temps de la comèdia i el drama. I tot embolcallat amb uns diàlegs tendres i molt elaborats.
Chaplin dona a la pel·lícula uns certs tocs autobiogràfics: Calvero és la representació d'un còmic veterà, cansat, que actua en un temps que ja no és el seu. Això s'accentua encara més en l'escena final on Charles Chaplin interpreta un gag al costat de Buster Keaton, dos dels millors còmics del cinema mut compartint pantalla.
Cal destacar també la banda sonora de la pel·lícula, composta pel mateix Charles Chaplin, que és un dels grans temes de la història del cinema. Per aquesta composició, Chaplin va guanyar, el 1972, l'Oscar a la millor música original 20 anys després de l'estrena de la pel·lícula[3]
CàstingModifica

ProduccióModifica
Charlie Chaplin i Claire Bloom a Llums d'escena.
Encara que la pel·lícula està ambientada a Londres, va ser filmada enterament a Hollywood, sobretot en els Estudis Chaplin. El carrer on viu Calvero és un conjunt reparin en els estudis Paramount; les escenes de music-hall van ser filmades a la RKO, i algunes escenes d'exteriors utilitzen material d'arxiu de seguretat de Londres.
Chaplin va dir que esperava que Llums d'escena seria la seva última pel·lícula. Durant el rodatge estava molt content i ple d'energia, fet atribuït a l'alegria de tornar als inicis de la seva carrera en el teatre de varietats. La majoria de les persones que han estudiat la vida de Chaplin suposen que el seu personatge a la pel·lícula es va basar en el seu pare, que també havia perdut el seu públic i s'havia convertit en alcohòlic, cosa que el va conduir a la seva mort el 1901. Tant en la seva autobiografia de 1964, i el seu llibre de 1974, La meva vida en imatges, Chaplin insisteix que Calvero es basa en la vida de l'actor de teatre Frank Tierney.
L'actuació de Charles Chaplin i Buster Keaton en el número musical final és històrica per ser l'única vegada que els dos van actuar junts a la pel·lícula. Chaplin en un primer moment no havia escrit la part de Buster Keaton perquè creia que el paper era massa petit. No va ser fins que es va assabentar que Keaton estava passant per temps difícils que Chaplin va insistir que Keaton fos contractat a la pel·lícula.[4] Cal remarcar, en aquesta escena, la generositat de Chaplin, que atorgà gairebé tot el protagonisme a Keaton.
RecepcióModifica
Mentre estava de gira a Gran Bretanya per promoure la pel·lícula, Chaplin es va assabentar que se li havia negat un visat de retorn als Estats Units a causa de les seves suposades simpaties comunistes, i en molts teatres d'Amèrica es van negar a projectar Llums d'escena. Fora de les sales de cinema en diverses ciutats de la costa oriental, la pel·lícula no va ser vista pel públic al cinema americà. No va ser fins a 1972 que la pel·lícula va ser vista per últim en el llançament americà d'ample i va rebre l'Oscar a la millor partitura original.
MúsicaModifica
El tema d'aquesta pel·lícula, titulat "Terry's Theme" (escrit per Charles Chaplin), es va convertir en una cançó popular.[5]

Learn everything about Delas Freres, Hermitage with wine tasting notes, wine and food pairing tips, best vintages, a history of the property and information on the vineyards and winemaking. If you want to read about other important wineries and wine makers from the Rhone valley: Links to all Rhone Valley Wine Producer Profiles
Delas Freres Hermtiage History, Overview
Delas Freres is one of the top producers of Rhone wine in a myriad of appellations. Delas Freres makes outstanding wine from Cote Rotie and Hermitage in the Northern Rhone.
The company also produces one of the top value wines from the region with their Cote du Rhone. Delas Freres has one of the longest histories in the appellation.
What we know of as Delas Freres today was formed in 1835 when Philippe Delas and Charles Audibert agreed to purchase Maisons Junique. The new company changed their name to Audibert and Delas.
Philippe Delas had two sons, Henri Delas and Florentin Delas. Florentin Delas eventually married the daughter of his fathers partner, Charles Audibert. In 1924, the two brothers took over management of the company and altered the name to what is still in use today, Delas Freres.
When the next generation took over management of Delas Freres in 1960, the company had become one of the top producers of Rhone wines with holdings in Cote Rotie, Hermitage, Cornas and Condrieu in the north as well as in the south in Chateauneuf du Pape.
In 1977 the company merged with the well-known Champagne firm, Deutz. In 1993, Delas Freres was in turn taken over by another Champagne producer, Louis Roederer in 1993.
Delas Freres also produces wine from a myriad of Northern Rhone appellations including Cote Rotie from La Landonne, Crozes Hermitage, St. Joseph, Cornas, St. Peray and Condrieu.
In 2016, Delas Freres hired the highly, respected, Architect, Carl Fredrik Svenstedt to design the most modern facility in the Rhone Valley. The winery will be located in Tain Hermitage.
Delas Freres Hermitage Vineyards, Grapes, Wines, Winemaking
Currently, Delas Freres produces 2 Hermitage Rouge wines and 1, Hermitage Blanc wine.
Delas Freres Les Bessards is their flagship, Hermitage wine. As you can surmise from the name, the wine is produced solely from grapes planted in the Bessards vineyard.
Les Bessards is perhaps the most famous vineyard in Hermitage. Les Bessards has a terroir of steep, granite hillside soils. The grapes are planted in the Bas de Coteau area of the lieu-dit.
While Delas Freres Les Bessards is one of the top wines in the Hermitage appellation. Interestingly, the company thinks a better judge of the quality they produce is in their high volume wines. They also own vines in the L’Hermite and Les Grandes Vignes vineyards.
With Les Bessards, they have been striving to produce a higher quality wine since they released their outstanding 1990 vintage. All of the grapes are 100% destemmed. The grapes are cold macerated before fermentation, there are minimal rackings and the wine is aged on its fine lees, giving the wine more richness.
At Delas Freres, for the barrel aging, they stopped using large 40 hectoliter barrels and have since moved to small, 225 liter, French oak barrels. Generally speaking, the wine is aged on average for about 18 months in barrel before bottling. In 1999, they renovated their fermentation cellars and added new temperature controlled vats.
Made from 100% Syrah, vinification takes place in concrete tanks. The wine is aged in a combination of new and used, French oak barrels, with a large percentage of their wine aged in new French oak. On average, about 500 cases are produced each vintage.
Delas Freres Domaine des Tourettes Hermitage. Until 2007, the wine was sold under the name of Marquise de la Touretts. The grapes are 100% destemmed.
The wine is produced from 100% Syrah and is aged in an average of 15% to 30% new, French oak barrels for about 18 months before bottling. Domaine des Tourettes is one of the larger productions in Hermitage as close to 3,000 cases of wine are produced each year.
Marquis de la Tourette is a lighter style of Hermitage that can be enjoyed in its relative youth, while wait for their Bessards to mature.
Delas Freres Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes Blanc comes fruit planted in the southern part of the Bessards lieu-dit and from vines placed in the Grandes Vignes lieu-dit.
Produced from 100% Marsanne in some vintages, and blended with Roussane in other years, the wine is aged for 8 months in 50% new, French oak barrels before bottling. Not much wine is made, as the production averages about 300 cases per vintage.
The best vintages of Delas Freres are: 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2012, 2010, 2009, 2007, 2005, 2003, 2001, 1999, 1998 and 1990.
Delas Freres has annual sales of almost 1.7 million bottles per year. They produce Hermitage Blanc as well as wines from St. Joseph and Crozes Hermitage. Their fruit comes from a combination of vineyards they own as well as from other growers.
In Hermitage, they own 6 hectares of prime vineyard land on Les Bessards, along with plots in L’Hermite and Les Grandes Vignes. Aside from Les Bessards, their top red wine, they also produce an affordable Hermitage wine called, Marquis de la Tourette.
When to Drink Delas Freres Hermitage, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Young vintages can be decanted for 2-4 hours, depending on the character of the vintage. This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment. Delas Freres Hermitage is best with 10-15 years of aging, and can remain at that peak level for at least 15-25 years.
Serving Delas Freres with Wine, Food, Pairing Tips
Delas Freres is best served at 15.5 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift.
Delas Freres is best served with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised and grilled dishes. Delas Freres is also good with Asian dishes, hearty fish courses like tuna, mushrooms and pasta.
The white wine of Delas Freres is best served with a myriad of different seafood dishes, shellfish, crab, lobster, sushi, sashimi, chicken, pork and veal, as well as Asian cuisine.
Delas Freres Bessards Hermitage wines are big, ripe, rich, deep, bold and powerful wines demanding 15-20 years of bottle age before maturity in the top vintages.

With the backbone to age, this is all about the intensity of flavor, purity of the fruit and the deep gravel that comes through on the nose and peppery, red berry palate. Give it 7-9 years and this will rock!

Smoke, earth, truffle, and deep black fruits on the nose get you ready for the blast of ripe, rich fruits and salty tannins. This is a parcel selection from their vineyard that truly competes with many more expensive Hermitage wines.

Cracked black pepper galore is the first thing you find. From there you enjoy a blend of herbs, spices, truffle, crushed rocks and red fruits. In the mouth, the wine is vibrant, focused, fresh and clean, with a crisp, peppery, red berry finish. Give it a few years before pulling cork to develop more secondary notes and softness.

This just gets going and never quits. The wine is incredibly intense, perfectly balanced and the purity in the fruit coats your palate with layers of lush, powerful, ripe, mineral-driven, salty, deep, dark red fruits. The seamless finish stays with you for about 50 seconds. Wines this good can be enjoyed young, but the real fireworks should kick in between 2025 and 2030. It is going to be worth the wait.

There is a purity to the fruits that stands out, and is made even better by the appearance of spice box notes, truffles, wet earth, licorice and pepper. Lay this down for another 6-10 years and this will be a superb wine.

Still opaque in color, this intense wine opens with mineral, smoke, blackberry, boysenberry, earth and spice. This powerful, full bodied wine is packed with layers of ripe fruit and tannins that require at least 10 -15 more years to come around. Not much of this stunning Hermitage wine is made as the production hovers at close to 500 cases per year. Fortunately, for fans of the wine, prices remain reasonable for a Northern Rhone of this quality.

I have to say, I was disappointed in this bottle tonight. The attractive perfume delivered blackberries, earth, coffee bean, dark cherry and mocha notes. On the palate, the wine was missing the fresh acidic pop I get from Cote Rotie. It was not nearly as good as it was a few years ago. This is a wine that needs to be consumed over the next year or two, before it declines further.

Perhaps with its the small production, (250 cases of Landonne), people do not get to taste the wines enough. Oh well... This is better for fans of the wine, as it keeps prices down.

This can be enjoyed now, or over the next 12-20 years.

Really nice wine, with its meaty, olive tapenade,, blackberry and earthy profile. Big, bold and concentrated, the wine has depth of flavor and complexity in the nose, leaving you with a big dose of fruit in the finish.

As wines age, every bottle is differernt. Some are better and of course, some are worse. We got lucky with this bottle of 1990 Delas Bessards, as it was much fresher and more interesting than the previous bottle from the same case. The debut vintage of Delas Bessards offers smoke, earth, minerality, black cherry, spice, truffle, tobacco and tar. Soft, elegant in a masculine sense, ripe, spicy cherries and strawberry complete the finish. This is fully mature. There is probably not much to gainied by holding it any longer.

WOO Network wins milestone AML approval from Taiwan
By PR Newswire On September 8, 2022 17:20 IST

TAIPEI, Sept. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — WOO Network, a top 10 crypto trading platform, has secured approval of its anti-money laundering (AML) registration application with Taiwan’s financial regulator.
The crypto trading firm is the only foreign applicant that is included in a list of 24 registered virtual asset providers or VASPs released by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) of the Banking Bureau of Taiwan.
“This is an important milestone for us as many foreign-owned firms are seeking to serve the Chinese-speaking market who are looking to diversify their portfolios. Taiwan’s potential on its own is huge given its high per capita income and fin-tech-savviness,” said Jack Tan, founder and CEO of WOO Network.
“This decision gives us ample confidence that Taiwan regulators are trying to strike a balance between supporting innovation and protecting users,” Tan noted.
“Our key differentiator is that we can provide deep liquidity and zero fees on transactions, thanks to our partner, Kronos Research. Simultaneously, we are able to launch new features and implement upgrades with our system – all of these allowed us to be on the top 10 crypto trading platforms in just one year of operations,” he highlighted.
Kronos Research is a cryptocurrency quantitative trading firm that specializes in arbitrage and high-frequency trading. The quant trading firm incubated WOO Network to provide professional traders and exchanges with improved liquidity.
To date, the total historical trading volume on WOO X is over 240 billion USD. WOO Network has more than 20 partners including Avalanche, Binance, Crypto.com, Cardano, and NEAR.
Taiwan approval details
“In general, the approval that we obtained means that we are fully compliant with implementing the AML measures, as stipulated by Taiwan law. It allows us to engage in: crypto to fiat exchange; crypto to crypto exchange; transfer of cryptocurrencies; safekeeping or administration of cryptocurrencies; and offering and issuance of cryptocurrencies,” said Chloe Tsai, Head of Legal and AML at WOO Network.
According to the FSC document, businesses that have completed the declaration of compliance with the Money Laundering Prevention Act are responsible for the implementation of the Money Laundering Prevention Act on their behalf. Those who obtained the approval are to take measures to prevent money laundering and combat terrorism on their virtual currency platforms and trading business.
“One of the requirements for us is to create an independent Taiwan app to house all Taiwanese users. On our Taiwan app, users cannot access futures/margin, while all FE and BE are separated from our global app,” explained Tsai.
“We are also taking big steps to allow our platform to engage in crypto to fiat exchange starting with one of the big local banks in Taiwan, and hopefully soon with other banks,” said Tsai.
For many decades, Taiwan’s financial sector is highly-regulated as it is cautious of the inflow of capital related to money laundering. However, the government has recently relaxed its rules in a bid to spur financial innovation and turn Taiwan into a fin-tech hub.
With its neighboring countries looking to tighten their rules on crypto, Taiwan has a good chance of achieving its goal with its recent approvals.

Students in COM 369 – Integrated Marketing Communication – partner with a real-world client each semester to develop an IMC plan that promotes the client’s products, services, or brand. They also use their media skills to produce promotional messages the client can use in their IMC campaigns.
Here is a TikTok video that Hanna Hyland produced for Hatfield Quality Meats, the client for the Spring 2021 IMC class.
COM 369 provides students with both a theoretical and practical understanding of integrated marketing communication (IMC). Given the modern media marketplace, this course gives special attention to IMC in the digital and social media age, and how they can work in tandem with traditional media. Students engage in a semester-long team project of five milestones where they assume the roles of a Marketing Communications Manager and Marketing Team for a real- world client. In these roles, students perform the research, market analysis, and creative brainstorming necessary to develop a robust IMC Campaign Plan that they present to the client at the end of the semester. Students leave this class with a better understanding of integrated marketing communications, client relationship management, and project management. Beyond that, students’ IMC Campaign Portfolio becomes a top-notch “sales tool” to impress potential employers.

OKLAHOMA CITY (KOKH) — Recreational marijuana will be on our ballot soon, but the fate of similar ballot questions failed in three of five states that voted on it last night.
This leaves many questioning if State Question 820 here in Oklahoma will pass next year.
Campaign Director for Yes on State Question 820, Michelle Tilley, told Fox 25 that they are still very optimistic that Oklahoma will pass SQ 820 on March 7th.
State Question 820 is a law that has been brought by the people of Oklahoma through the petition process.
“What it will do is legalize recreational marijuana in Oklahoma, and it’s going to provide a 15% tax on that marijuana which is going to provide funds for our schools, health care, or local governments,” Tilley said.
Tilley says SQ 820 is different from the laws rejected in Arkansas, North Dakota, and South Dakota last night, their measures not having provisions to expunge criminal records for marijuana convictions like SQ 820 does.
“It also allows for a process for those who have been convicted of minor marijuana issues in the past to have that cleaned up the record,” she said.
She says the Yes on State Question 820 Campaign is not phased by the other states’ rejections.
“Honestly, we’re focused on Oklahoma. We are Oklahomans and this has been a process we’ve been working on for the last three years to get this law right for Oklahoma,” she said, “We know that an overwhelming majority of Oklahomans support the idea of legalizing marijuana and taxing it and regulating it so that our state can see the benefits of that program.”
They say they are still confident that the question will pass come the special election in March.
“We’re very optimistic,” Tilley said, “People think it’s past time to legalize recreational here in Oklahoma.”
State Question 820 will be voted on in a special election on March 7th, and the Yes on 820 Campaign encourages Oklahomans to vote on election day.

Mighty Black Knight Slot Review
Prepare for an adventure that will take you to the middle ages, at least visually. Mighty Black Knight slot is the latest release from Barcrest and comes with some entertaining and exciting bonus features. Read our entire Mighty Black Knight review, discover all of the details about this online video slot and embark on this one of a kind crusade.
Mighty Black Knight Overview
Mighty Black Knight slot has five reels, five rows and amazing 50 fixed paylines. The reels are set against a dark and spooky castle. On each side of the reels there are torches that bring some light into this online video slot. As we said Mighty Black Knight slot was developed by the popular software provider, Barcrest and has three super cool bonus features.
Like most other online video slots, this one has two types of symbols, the low and high valued ones. The lowest value symbols are represented by the classic card symbols, which are all in different colours, pink, red, blue and purple.
On the other hand, there are also the high valued symbols, which will help you land the bigger prizes. Those are the map of France, a signet ring, a crown, a golden orb, the Queen and of course her King.
Mighty Black Knight slot also has a wild symbol. As you probably know, the wild symbol has the ability to take the place of all other symbols on the reels and help you land more winning combination. There is an additional symbol, the bonus one, which is represented by a chess piece. The bonus symbol is the only one that can’t be replaced by the wild one. What makes these two symbols more special is the fact that they can help you trigger the Mighty Black Knight bonus features.
How To Play Mighty Black Knight Slot
Setting the bet is one of the most crucial parts, before you start spinning the reels of Mighty Black Knight. The betting range varies from the minimum of 0.10 to a maximum of 250.
Mighty Black Knight Bonus Features
Mighty Black Knight slot has three really mighty bonus features. So, when spinning the reels of this interesting online video slot, you will have a fair chance of activating one the following bonus round: the Big Bet, the Mighty Black Knight Free Spins and the Mighty Reels. Let’s get into detail about each of these bonus rounds individually.
Mighty Black Knight Free Spins
If you manage to land at least three bonus symbols represented by the chess piece, anywhere on the reels, you will trigger the Mighty Black Knight Free Spins bonus round. Depending on the amount of symbols you land, you will receive a different number of free spins. Three bonus symbols will bring you eight free spins. Landing four bonus symbols will bring you 12 free spins. Lastly, if you manage to land the maximum of five bonus symbols, anywhere on the reels, you will be rewarded with 20 free spins. The best thing is that you can even win more free spins or activate the next bonus feature on the reels, the Mighty Reels bonus round. All you need to do is land the required number of matching symbols.
Mighty Reels
In order for you to trigger the Mighty Reels bonus round, you will need to get the wild symbol, represented by the black knight. When this happens, the gate that is located on the top of the screen will rise. The higher reel positions will be uncovered and the number of paylines will be a total of 100. Furthermore, the black knight will start to expand until it covers all of the positions on the reels.
Big Bet
The Big Bet bonus feature in more of an optional round, where you will be able to buy five spins. You can buy each of the options for a different price and they also come with different benefits. Let’s start with the cheapest option and move our way up to the highest one.
£20.00 Option
If you choose this option, the wild symbol will trigger the Mighty Reels bonus feature. This will also happen, even if the symbol is only partly in view.
£30.00 Option
If you choose the second option, the wild symbol will trigger the Mighty Reels bonus feature. This will also happen, even if the symbol is only partly in view. In addition, all of the symbols, represented by the playing cards will also be removed.
£50.00 Option
The third and last option is similar to the second one with few extra benefits. If you choose this option, the wild symbol will trigger the Mighty Reels bonus feature. This will also happen, even if the symbol is only partly in view. Also, all of the symbols, represented by the playing cards will also be removed and the wild symbols will keep their place for the rest of the spins you have.
Out Mighty Black Knight Review
Mighty Black Knight slot is a really entertaining online video game slot. Depending on the Big Bet option, the return to player rate will also differ. So, choosing to play the Big Bet option will means that the RTP will be 96,00%. However, choosing to bet £10 per spin, will increase the Mighty Black Knight RTP to a jaw-dropping 98.00%.

El gener passa ràpid, és un d'aquells mesos productius, que passades les festes de Nadal i fins a Carnaval no fas gaire més que treballar.
No ha estat un mes gaire productiu en la lectura, una de les novel·les que no he deixat, tampoc és massa llarga, és 1933 was a bad year, traduida en castellà com a Un año pésimo de John Fante. De fet el 2020 ha començat pel Camp de Tarragona de forma pèssima pels temporals i els accidents químics, però Fante, amb el seu hiperrealisme brut es referia al desvetllament de l'adolescència i de com el somni americà acaba quan un wasp et diu de males maneres que te'n vagis de la festa, que tu no hi ets convidat. Fante és un autor que ha revingut, de manera que segur que trobareu persones que us en parlaran amb menys pressa que jo.
Arola ha publicat les obres en català del dramaturg Marc Artigau, a l'atzar he començat per Caixes i m'ha semblat una bona obra, amb una arquitectura equilibrada amb arcbotants i voltes agosarades. Una mena de Temps obert pedrolià sobre possibilitats de la vida que s'obren i passen de llarg, però al segle XXI i amb aquella edat que ho hauries de tenir tot resolt i encarat, i no.
Quan he de fer adaptacions de balls parlats m'agrada llegir Shakespeare, que el seu llenguatge em vagi ressonant pel cap mentre miro d'adaptar versos menys acurats que el seu. El Rei Joan no és de les millors obres que té, els personatges fan llargues tirallongues de versos sense que tinguin passatges molt lluïts com els que ens té acostumats. De tot plegat en destaco el personatge del Bastard, una mena de bufó i de veu de la consciència que deixa anar perles com: "Món guillat! Reis guillats! Conveni estúpid!" o "Per l'Interès / aquell que el món desvia! Abans el món/ per ell mateix rodava en equilibri/ sobre una terra plana, i l'Interès que fa com un pendent irresistible..." o Pandeolf: " el que has jurat sense raó, no fora de raó complir-ho lleialment", o com sempre trobem belles comparacions: "refrescar el gel o bé afegir un color a l'arc de Sant Martí..."
El foc follet de Louis Malle m'ha impressionat força. és una pel·lícula sobre el final de la joventut i l'apatia de saber-te adult i d'haver de comportar-se com cal i com s'espera. El foc follet és un foc que crema sense control, però també sense sentit i això carrega la pel·lícula sobre la banda de l'existencialisme. el protagonista és un personatge que ho té tot de cara, però que no connecta amb la seva realitat, amb la trista realitat humana, l'infern són els altres, però el patim naltros mateixos.

Product Overview
ModeloDrive FRP BC2 Side Skirts > Acura TSX CL9 2004-2008 (modelodrive_110110)
This is a BC2 Side Skirts manufactured or distributed by ModeloDrive with FRP being the primary exterior surface material. ModeloDrive FRP (fiberglass) parts are made to a higher standard than most mass produced US market fiberglass parts. Holes will not always be pre-drilled so you still will need to dry fit the parts before they can be prepped and finished. Due to the nature of fiberglass there may be cracks or surface imperfections that need filled and/or leveled. This should be fixed in the prep stage of installation at a professional body shop. Bolts, screws, and double sided tape is not included. All ModeloDrive fiberglass parts require modification, shaving, sanding, drilling, filling in order to ensure proper fitment but generally speaking less than the competition.
New: A brand-new, unused, unopened, item in its original packaging (where packaging is applicable). Packaging should be the same as what is found in our retail store. To be installed professionally by a bodyshop with a valid automotive repair business license. Fiberglass parts always require prep work before they can be primed and painted. This product is made with fiberglass material, therefore it will exhibit chips, breaks, cracks, waves, scratches and holes which require modification. It is necessary to dry fit and drill mounting holes and preform body work before paint. Cutting and adding of fiberglass may be required for proper fitment. Ships direct from the manufacturer or a distributor. Primer finish. Hand layup is the manufacturing process used for the majority of our fiberglass parts. Hoods require hood pins. We do not offer any guarantee of fitment on vehicles that have been in involved in accidents and/or have body damage or customization. | en |
Community Care Choices is a community based program offered by Community Hospice, your local nonprofit hospice providing compassionate and quality care, education and support to patients and their families, regardless of ability to pay, since 1979.
California’s SB 1004 was put into place to establish standards and provide technical assistance for Medi-Cal managed care health plans (MCPs) for the delivery of Palliative Care. Palliative Care, in this context, “consists of patient and family centered care that optimizes quality of life by anticipating, preventing, and treating suffering”. Palliative Care is intended to be added to other services that a patient may need such as home health care and/or curative treatments. Interventions provided with Palliative Care include pain and symptom management, advance care planning and complicated healthcare navigation. A patient in this program may have begun to use the emergency room or hospital for their care needs, have a decline in health status but are not eligible for hospice or not interested in hospice, or wanting to attempt in-home care and to participate in Advance Care Planning discussions.
(DHS All Plan Letter 17-015, Oct 2017)
Community Care Choices was created in 2017 to further meet the needs of our community offering specialized and compassionate care to patients in our community with a chronic/serious illness (not hospice).
Community Hospice is licensed by California and certified by Medicare and Medical to provide comprehensive palliative and end-of-life care. Our program is accredited by Community Health Accreditation Program (CHAP) and affiliated with the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization (NHPCO).

The Most Common OSHA Violations for Electrical Contractors
The Most Common OSHA Violations for Electrical Contractors
August 29, 2022 | Categories: Blog, Articles
Between October 2020 and September 2021, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) charged nearly $2 million in fines to electrical contractors in the United States. These penalties were all the result of failure to comply with OSHA standards, but which standards in particular?
By understanding where other electrical contractors have gone wrong, you can help to ensure your firm doesn’t make the same mistakes — and, more importantly, avoid devastating workplace injuries. Here are the 10 most-cited OSHA standards for electrical contractors, according to the latest figures released by the Administration.
Note: This content is for informational purposes only, and should not be considered legal advice. For official help complying with these and other OSHA standards, contact your local OSHA office, or contact the Administration at 1-800-321-OSHA.
1. Standard 1926.416: General requirements for protecting employees
This standard covers the general requirements for working with electrical systems in the construction industry. It contains nine distinct rules, covering everything from preventing contact with energized power circuits to the necessary condition of electrical cables. According to this standard, OSHA citations may result from failure to:
Prevent employees from working near power circuits unless those circuits are deenergized and grounded or sufficiently guarded from contact.
Ensure employees wear insulated gloves when using hand tools near the potential location of underground power lines.
Locate all energized power circuits prior to allowing employees to work near them.
Set up barriers around exposed and energized parts of electrical equipment.
Keep all walking/working spaces free of hazardous cords.
Prevent load increases in circuit protectors beyond the top wiring load rating.
Make sure employees use appropriately insulated tools to handle fuses in energized systems.
Avoid the use of “work or frayed” cords and cables.
Never support extension cords with staples, nails, or wire.
In the October 2020 to September 2021 study period, OSHA issued 39 citations to electrical contractors for violating this standard. These citations led to fines worth a total of $324,353.
2. Standard 1925.501: Duty to have fall protection
This standard lists employer responsibilities related to preventing falls and injuries from falling objects. In 2021, dozens of electrical contractors failed to comply with at least one of the following provisions found in the Code of Federal Regulations, subpart 1926, standard number 1926.501:
Employees can only be allowed to work on elevated surfaces that support them safely.
Elevated working surfaces require guardrails, safety nets, or personal fall arrest equipment if they’re six feet or higher above the ground or lower level.
Workers tasked with setting up these elevated platforms must be protected by guardrails, safety nets, or fall arrest systems, too.
All holes in working platforms (including skylights) must be set up so workers won’t trip over them or step into them.
Holes must be covered when there’s a risk of objects falling through them onto those working below.
Elevated walkways above six feet require guardrails.
When employees work six feet or more above “dangerous equipment,” some combination of guardrails, personal fall arrest systems, or safety nets must prevent falls into that equipment.
Employees must wear hard hats in workplaces where there’s a risk of falling objects.
In addition to this PPE requirement, elevated walkways should include toeboards or other guards against objects falling over edges.
This list isn’t comprehensive, but it illustrates the kinds of mistakes that led to OSHA fines for contractors (and, presumably, the workplace incidents that sparked an OSHA investigation).
During the study period, OSHA issued 37 citations for noncompliance with standard 1926.501 in the electrical industry, leading to fines worth a combined total of $409,839.
3. Standard 1926.453: Aerial lifts
Standard 1926.453 provides safety rules for working with (and on) boom platforms, aerial ladders, and other work platforms that take employees high in the air. Key OSHA requirements in this section of the regulations include:
Staff must test aerial lift controls every day, before using them, to make sure they’re working like they should.
Only trained, authorized staff can operate an aerial lift.
Anyone in the basket of a lifting device must stand on the floor; no use of planks or ladders to reach work locations.
Employees in these elevated baskets must wear a body belt, and attach it to the boom or basket itself with a tethering lanyard.
Before you lift someone, the vehicle that supports an aerial lift must be parked on a solid surface. If there’s any incline, use wheel chocks — and brakes must always be set during use of the lift device.
Electrical contractors failed to comply with these and other rules listed in standard 1926.453. For these mistakes, OSHA issued 28 citations to electrical employers during the study period, charging total penalties of $83,078.
4. Standard 1926.1053: Ladders
The OSHA standard covering safe use (and construction) of ladders is one of the longer lists of rules in the Code of Federal Regulations. Electrical contractors should familiarize themselves with the whole thing, but key sections that often get missed include:
All ladders must be built and tested to support at least four times the maximum intended load (or 3.3 times the max load if they’re considered “extra-heavy-duty.”
When ladders reach 24 feet or more, employers must outfit them with “ladder safety devices” or lifelines and rest platforms at least every 150 feet.
Ladders must be free from oil, grease, or similar substances that increase the risk of slipping.
The team must keep the surrounding area of a ladder, both at the top and the bottom, totally clear of items and materials.
These are just a few examples of OSHA’s rules for ladders in the construction industry. When in doubt, consult an OSHA-qualified safety expert. For electrical firms’ failure to comply with standard 1925.1053, OSHA issued 21 citations during the study period. Fines for these citations amounted to $61,933.
5. Standard 1926.405: Wiring methods, components, and equipment for general use
This standard provides ground rules for electrical systems in the construction industry, including temporary wiring for lighting and equipment at the job site. Standout requirements include:
You can’t hang temporary lights by the cord (unless both the cord and light are designed for this purpose).
If you run a flexible cable or extension cord through doorways or potential “pinch points,” those cords must be protected from damage. You must avoid running cables around sharp corners or objects that might cut them.
To power electric tools and appliances, you must only use three-wire extension cords rated for “hard or extra-hard” applications.
Electrical equipment can’t have exposed live elements.
For these and/or other violations of the standard, OSHA issued 18 citations to electrical contractors in the study period, with fines amounting to $54,576.
6. Standard 1926.20: General safety and health provisions
This standard clarifies how other standards will be enforced, covering general topics from safety programs to personal protective equipment (PPE) and employee training in the construction industry. It makes several important safety responsibilities clear:
Employers are responsible for offering effective safety programs.
These programs must include frequent inspection of job sites, equipment, and construction materials, and must be conducted by “competent persons.”
Multiple standards within part 1926 of the OSHA regulations require employees to provide safety training as well as appropriate PPE. Standard 1926.20 (f) specifies that each failure to train or provide PPE is a separate violation. So if you fail to train a whole team, you could be cited once for each employee, for instance.
Among electrical firms, violations of standard 1926.20 resulted in 15 citations from OSHA during the study period. Total fines amounted to $57,576.
7. Standard 1926.21: Safety training and education
Here, OSHA spells out the government’s authority over industrial training programs in the construction industry, and clarifies employer responsibility to train employees for safety and health. Sections that may lead to citations for electrical contractors include:
Employers must teach employees how to recognize and avoid unsafe conditions, as well as methods of removing or at least controlling these hazards.
Employees who work with “harmful substances” must be trained on how to handle them safely.
Employers must also provide training for the safe use of flammable substances or hazardous materials — and potential exposure to dangerous plants or animals.
Between October 2020 and November 2021, OSHA issued electrical contractors 15 citations related to this standard, with fines totaling $87,022. That breaks down to an average fine of over $5,800.
8. Standard 1926.403: General requirements for approved electrical conductors and equipment
This list of “general requirements” covers the use of electrical equipment in the construction industry, including rules for setting up and working around electrical devices. In part, it states that:
Employers must ensure that electrical equipment is safe for use in a variety of conditions.
Any equipment that requires certification or official documentation must be installed and used as described by the paperwork.
Electrical equipment must be safely secured to mounting surfaces (which means no wooden plugs driven into concrete, which apparently was a common problem when OSHA wrote the rule).
Electrical equipment must have a certain amount of empty space surrounding it (usually not less than 30 inches, but sometimes up to four feet).
Violations of standard 1926.403 led to 13 OSHA citations among electrical contractors in the study period, with fines totaling $35,576.
9. Standard 1904.39: Reporting fatality, injury, and illness information to the government
Notably, standard 1904.39 is the only item on this list that doesn’t cover the construction industry alone. It comes from part 1904 of the regulations, which governs how employers must record and report workplace injuries and illnesses to the government. Specifically, standard 1904.39 states, in part, that:
Employers must report workplace deaths to OSHA within eight hours of the incident.
If a workplace injury leads to an employee being admitted to a hospital — or if there’s an amputation or loss of an eye — those incidents must be reported within 24 hours.
Employers can make these reports either online, using OSHA’s Serious Event Reporting Online Form, by calling your local OSHA Area Office, or by calling the central OSHA phone line at 1-800-321-OSHA.
During the study period, OSHA issued 11 citations to electrical contractors for violations of this standard, and charged total fines of $33,158.
10. Standard 1926.503: Training requirements for fall protection
According to OSHA standard 1926.503, employers must provide fall-protection training programs for all employees that might face falling hazards. Here are a few details about these training programs listed in the standard:
Training programs must teach employees about the risks of falling and reliable ways to reduce that risk.
Not just anyone can teach a fall-protection program. The instructor must be a “competent person,” with detailed knowledge of specific fall hazards on the job; the right way to handle the job’s fall protection systems; use of guardrails and other safety equipment; each employee’s role in a fall protection plan; and, of course, OSHA standard 1926.503.
Employers must document fall-protection training with official certificates.
While the standard doesn’t require annual retraining, it does state that training should be repeated when there are changes in the workplace, you get new fall protection systems, or it seems that an employee isn’t following the rules of the training.
This, the tenth most-commonly cited OSHA standard for electrical contractors, led to 9 citations from October 2020 to November 2021. The Administration charged total fines of $92,690 for these violations.
The best way to avoid OSHA citations — and the workplace hazards that lead to them — is to work with the experts, either professional safety advisors or OSHA itself. Small and medium-sized businesses can get cost-free services through the OSHA On-Site Consultation Program. For more assistance, contact your regional OSHA Office.

On-Air Challenge:For each category, name something in the category starting with each of the letters in the word "trail." For example, if the category were "books of the Bible," you might say Timothy, Ruth, Amos, Isaiah and Leviticus.
Any answer that works is correct. And you can give the answers in any order.
Last week's challenge from listener Steve Baggish of Littleton, Mass.: Think of a well-known actor, three letters in the first name, seven letters in the last. One of the letters is an "S." Change the "S" to a "K" and rearrange the result, and you'll name a well-known fictional character. Who is it?
Answer: Tinkerbell, which comes from the name of the actor Ben Stiller.
Winner: Lynette Hendricks of Dallas
Next week's challenge from listener David Rosen, a member of the National Puzzlers' League:The name of something that you might see your doctor about is a two-word phrase. Three letters in each word. When these six letters are written without a space, a three-letter word can be removed from inside, and the remaining three letters in order also form a word. What's interesting is that the four three-letter words — the two in the original phrase, the one that was removed, and the one that remains — all rhyme. What is the original phrase?
Submit Your Answer
If you know the answer to next week's challenge, submit it here. Listeners who submit correct answers win a chance to play the on-air puzzle. Important: Include a phone number where we can reach you Thursday at 3 p.m. Eastern.

While breathing in salty air at the beach is often credited with bringing serenity, there’s more truth in the healing benefits of salt than you might think. In fact, halotherapy, the technical term for salt as an alternative treatment, has been a wellness method for centuries. It dates back to the salt mines and caves in Eastern Europe where salt miners, unlike their prospecting peers, thrived with good health. Today, salt therapies are incorporated into spa treatments and beauty products, and entire buildings are dedicated to salt rooms.
Recently, Buckhead gained its own salt room at the newly renovated The Whitley Atlanta Buckhead hotel, whose spa is open to the public. “The large room simulates the environment of a therapeutic salt cave, with Himalayan salt blocks covering the walls to calm and detoxify the mind and body,” says Drinne Rawlins, the assistant spa manager. Dry salt therapy, in which micro particles of salt are dispersed into a room by a halogenerator, is said to improve ailments ranging from asthma to sinus inflammation, and for good reason. By nature, salt draws out moisture, leaving lungs and sinuses clear.
According to Rawlins, during a relaxing 30-minute salt room session, the “micro particles of salt are promoting better breathing, healthier skin, sounder sleep, improved physical fitness and endurance and overall wellness.” Rawlins simplifies the experience even more, “We consider dry salt therapy like a toothbrush for your lungs and skin.”
Other area spas and businesses have various salt-related products, treatments and remedies that can be just as beneficial as dedicating time in a salt room. Here are a few more ways you can implement the benefits of salt into your wellness routine.
Try a spa treatment.
Spa Sydell’s CBD Calming Body Treatment includes a sea salt body polish.
The newly opened Spa Sydell in Buckhead offers a body treatment combining two buzz-worthy ingredients: salt and CBD. The CBD Calming Body Treatment includes dry brushing, a body polish using sea salt that rids the body of unwanted dry areas while exfoliating and nourishing the skin, a CBD mask and a warm wrap. It ends with a massage sure to send you into relaxation bliss.
Use a salt lamp.
Himalayan salt lamps are said to be natural ionizers and mood boosters. The lights, made from blocks of Himalayan salt, are sold at big-box retailers such as Bed Bath & Beyond and HomeGoods. The Phoenix & Dragon Bookstore in Sandy Springs also has a modest selection.
Incorporate holistic solutions.
The bath salts available at Sama are good for everything from eczema to stomach cramps.
Shannon Salter Sliger, the founder and CEO of Sama Food For Balance, has her own line of bath salts, which are “created to help you find your balance according to your ayurvedic dosha.” According to Sliger, “The Pitta salts have red kaolin clay, rose, Epsom salts, Himalayan pink salt and Dead Sea salt. This is a very cooling bath. It’s great for the summer months or for those with skin issues such as eczema and psoriasis, or for menopausal women. The Vata Bath is very grounding and warming, while the Kapha Bath is great to use before going out to revitalize you. It has matcha, mint and French green clay along with Epsom salts. The medicinal benefits include readily absorbable magnesium that can calm you or reduce stomach cramps.”

Amb la boca oberta, ens hem quedat amb el joc que ens ha portat el Bernat, és impressionant. Ha reproduït el món del MineCraft en un taulell de plàstic de colors molt ben treballat.
Jugar-hi és una mica complicat perquè hi ha moltes trampes i laberints, però segur que ens en sortirem.

Digues el trànsit: «Passatge», de Manel Rodríguez-Castelló
Fa poc més d’un any vaig comentar en aquest blog Farem un pensament (metaforismes i saials), de Manel Rodríguez-Castelló, que havia editat Lletra Impresa Edicions (vegeu Entre l’instant i el fragment). L’autor hi feia servir el terme saial per a referir-se a textos de denúncia i de reflexió cíviques, en les seues paraules «draps de neteja d’una realitat social sovint espúria i bruta, escàpola i complexa, punyent i contradictòria, i d’aclariment, com tota escriptura que vol posar una mica de llum enraonada en les coses», mentre que els metaforismes eren una mena d’aforismes o instàntanies que «intenten atrapar el pensament en fuga sota una fórmula verbal precisa», la matèria primera de l’obrador poètic, el germen o l’origen del poema: apunts en brut que només esperaven desenvolupar-se per a convertir-se en un poema.
Ara acaba de publicar Passatge en Edicions del Buc, un llibre de poesia que porta a la pràctica la poètica exposada en algunes de les proses de Farem un pensament, i que converteix en poemes alguns dels seus motius més insistits. A més, la definició que l’autor proposava del metaforisme —«la concreció de la naturalesa discontínua del pensament adaptat a les circumstàncies canviants»—, sintetitza un dels fils conductors de Passatge, que ja apareix indicat en el títol. Aquest mateix títol reapareix en un dels poemes clau, «Passatge», on llegim la tensió que incita molts dels versos d’aquest recull: «El món és a penes com el veus passant / entre el fulgor i l’ombra, / [ … ] L’ull cerca el que roman transformant-se, / el que transita entre mudances, / el que se’n va i torna per omplir les formes / de cercles i cicles d’oblit i memòria».
Digues si pots el trànsit, escriu Manuel Rodríguez-Castelló en un altre vers de Passatge. Molts dels seus poemes responen a la voluntat de projectar «l’ombra del que batega / per platges d’oblit / i boscos de memòria», de recollir «els escorrims d’una veu / que es mou per les venes / amb el seu batec sempre confús». Són versos que ressonen entre ells. Passatge adquireix un caràcter fortament unitari a partir d’una xarxa de mots i motius que es reprenen i varien d’un poema a un altre. Però la densitat dels símbols, el joc de relacions i de variacions que s’hi estableix, no cauen mai en una escriptura críptica, d’un verbalisme gratuït. D’altra banda, Rodríguez-Castelló construeix els seus versos a partir de la combinació de peus rítmics, i no en prosa penosament retallada. Això és una condició sine qua non de qualsevol vers, però resulta una sorpresa molt agradable, tenint en compte el que solem trobar en la poesia actual.
El recull està organitzat en quatre blocs: Universos, Cantar lleu, Sicut i Quatre passatges. El segon, Cantar lleu, contrasta amb els altres perquè recull poemes de caràcter cívic o directament polític, d’expressió més directa, l’equivalent poètic —proporcions guardades— dels saials de Farem un pensament. Els del tercer bloc, Sicut, comparteixen el fet d’estar generats a partir d’un símil, que en la majoria dels casos apareix al final del poema, com una síntesi que l’obri alhora a una altra dimensió de sentit. En l’última part l’autor juga amb la polisèmia del mot passatge, ‘acció de passar’ i ‘lloc per on passa’. Els quatre passatges porten cada un com a títol el nom d’un lloc.
Passatge és un dels millors llibres de poesia que he llegit aquests últims anys. Segurament el millor. Demana a canvi, és clar, una lectura atenta i concentrada. La que es mereix. Crec que la manera més efectiva d’incitar-vos a llegir-lo —aquesta ressenya no té un altre propòsit— és reproduir-ne algun poema. Aquest, per exemple:
PEIXOS
El soroll era estrany, inquietant.
Vaig acostar-me al lloc prop del riu
d’on provenia
aquell clapoteig metàl·lic,
com un crit esmorteït que demanava
desesperadament auxili.
En un toll d’un dit de fondo a penes
uns quants peixos
lluitaven desesperadament
per mantenir el cap
dins aquella aigua fangosa i escassa
on havien quedat aïllats,
encerclats per la sequera.
Com aquells peixos moribunds
jo enfonse ara el cap en aigües
fangoses de memòria
i respire a fons, àvidament,
les darreres glopades d’oxigen
de la vida.
Com els peixos
atrapats en aquell toll.

Monday morning inspiration – Just draw
Posted on October 19, 2009 Written by Cindy Frewen 709 Comments
via swiss-miss.com (thank you, swiss-miss!!)
Milton Glaser says that kids who don’t draw fail to grow whole brains. Imagine life without drawing! I really can’t. We wouldnt have any of the objects in my view, much less the house, neighborhood, city. Yet many people rarely draw. Glaser talks about that as he lightly sketches William Shakespeare, his 60th drawing of the Bard this year. (Repetition creates habits that can become rituals that then shape your life. Each time is new and also familiar.)
I rarely drew beyond diagrams while I was completing my doctorate last year. This spring I took a sketching class just to remind myself and it was like going to a spa twice a week. We drew fast – 5-20 min drawings on large pads for 2 hours. I emerged refreshed, renewed. Our assignment was a sketch a day, 100 total. Like practicing piano scales.
Steven Holl, architect, starts every day with an hour of sketching or painting to make sure he remains creative. Sometimes he has a project in mind, and other times not. http://www.arcspace.com/studio/s_holl/. If it’s important enough for a world-renowned architect to do in what must be an impossible schedule, why not me/you?
It’s like breathing for your right brain. It’s not important to be beautiful or accurate, but to express with your hands and eyes. That’s all. Use those muscles, coordinate them, keep it simple.
Very soft pencils, charcoals, felt tips are best on a not too finished paper like newsprint or sketch pads but any tools will do. Just draw your hand, coffee mug, or William Shakespeare’s face. Primitive sketching is as good as Glaser’s – the point is to draw, use your hands and eyes to see whole things. You can almost feel the right hemisphere light up. | en |
Infusió soluble de llimona amb mel, seguint les tradicions més naturals, s’utilitza la mel per acompanyar les infusions amb els ingredients més naturals i saludables.
La clàssica combinació de mel i llimona, en dissoldre-la en aigua s’aconsegueix una beguda rodona amb un sabor cítric suau. Ideal per prendre freda les tardes d’estiu o calenta a l’hivern.
Preparació per pendre com infusió: dissoldre 2 o més cullerades en aigüa calenta o freda. No és necessari bullir. 20gr per servei.
Les infusions amb mel són també una gran solució per endolcir sucs de fruita, a banda d’aportar la dolçor de la mel també estan incorporant el sabor i les propietats de la infusió.
També són ideals per acompanyar torrades de pa: Un aport d’energia ideal per esmorzars o berenars.
Les infusions solubles amb mel també permeten fer maridatges amb formatges tendres, cremosos, de vaca o de cabra.
De la mateixa manera que amb les melmelades, també pots utilitzar aquestes infusions amb mel per endolcir d’una manera diferent els iogurts. | ca |
A few weeks ago we discussed the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for social good, and presented ways in which drones could contribute to genocide prevention. But while there is great humanitarian potential for drones, several challenges lie ahead. Chief among these is a lack of safeguards that restrict their use, completely or in part, to humanitarian purposes.
Governments are usually very good at dressing their repressive tactics in the language of benevolent paternalism, and all too often the media adopt that frame, or at best juxtapose it as an equally valid frame to the counter-view held by human rights activists. As long as drone technology remains in the exclusive control of governments, drones are prone to abuse, mischaracterization, and window dressing or subterfuge to cover their true purposes, which remain surveillance, control, intimidation, and killing.
These government uses of drones have created another challenge for the humanitarian use of drones — what has become known as the “drone stigma.” With such a strong association of drones with negative applications, many civilians do not trust them at all, even for good applications. India offers an example, where civil society activists are not at all convinced that anti-poaching drones aren’t also being developed for other, less benevolent purposes. This stigma is also seen in Yemen, where people are more fearful of drones, due to their ability to strike silently without warning, than of on-the-ground human terrorists and attackers.
Safety also poses a very real concern for the use of drones for any purpose. Drones embody a sophisticated technology that even at the high-cost end can malfunction at times. Crashed drones imperil both human life and property.
In response to the statement made in the last blog that if drones are used to protect endangered animals, why not use them to protect endangered people, the question could be asked, “Aren’t those vulnerable people typically made vulnerable by the very same people who would deploy the drones?”
The Sentinel Project does not advocate the expanded use of UAVs in humanitarian situations by governments (though we’re not opposed to that in principle either, assuming that proper safeguards are in place against abuses). In terms of the endangered animals versus endangered humans analogy, we assume that the UAVs would be deployed by some preferably non-governmental third party in an attempt to counter a likely governmental threat, not by the same people causing the harm in the first place.
So the big question is, who exactly is deploying drones? After all, if people assume that the violation of a state’s sovereignty by another state is a bad thing, is it not just as bad when NGOs do it? Who decides when violating laws and norms is morally justified and when it isn’t?
The drone debate centres around the control of state-of-the-art drones – those with major reach and the ability to send pictures instantaneously even if they’re out of visual range. Currently, these drones can be fielded only by governments with access to sophisticated technology, like encrypted GPS. This being the case, if a foreign power deploys drones in someone else’s sovereign territory, we’re looking at an erosion of long-standing norms of international law.
Another challenge in using drones for humanitarian purposes, particularly to acquire images of repressive activities that are then shown to the public in the hope of raising an outcry, is the potential for disaster fatigue – the phenomenon by which the empathy of people for the victims of tragedy begins to wane when observers become overloaded by relentless news coverage and horrific images. And even without the creep of disaster fatigue, will the international community’s response be any different when it is unequivocally known that genocide is taking place somewhere? Did “we” do something about Rwanda, where we saw what was unfolding in real time? Are “we” doing anything about the many other genocidal and mass atrocities situations around the globe? Unfortunately, greater knowledge about a crisis situation doesn’t necessarily correlate with increased global concern. And, sad to say, interventions often have more to do with geopolitics than they do with a genuine concern for the dignity and well-being of the people under attack.
Another unintended effect of the humanitarian use of surveillance drones to document genocidal campaigns may be to raise expectations in the victimized community that help may be on its way, when in fact it may not be.
As with any other tool, we should be focusing on uses of UAVs that actually influence outcomes. Watching a massacre happen doesn’t stop it, as history has repeatedly shown. However, adding another method of data collection that can strengthen early warning efforts before a massacre begins can significantly improve local attempts to get people out of harm’s way.
