SEMMELWEIS online stream launched May 2 - a music-theater work inspired by the "unsung pioneer

"Covid-19 has sparked a resurgent interest in [Semmelweis'] work — he was even the subject of a recent Google Doodle — but in 'Semmelweis,' New York-based composer Raymond J. Lustig tells his story as a musical 'death dream' of sorts, with compelling beauty and eerie prescience." - Washington Post

An online stream of the world premiere production of SEMMELWEIS, a music-theater work inspired by one of medicine’s most tragic heroes, Hungarian doctor Ignác Semmelweis, launched on Saturday, May 2, 2020 at 1PM ET, at, and will be available for one month. SEMMELWEIS was created by American composer Raymond J. Lustig, Irish-American writer Matthew Doherty, and Hungarian director Martin Boross. The world premiere performance in 2018 was co-produced by Budapest Operetta Theatre and Bartók Plusz Opera Festival. It will be free to watch, but viewers may make donations via the website to support organizations currently working to understand and combat the global coronavirus pandemic, and to alleviate its toll, especially on the most vulnerable populations: UNICEF USA, Alight, and the Semmelweis Foundation.

Seen and Heard International highlights the production's "scintillating, mystical score with evocative imagery" and further praises Lustig's style as, "modern, often minimalist: repetitive organ chords create an air of weight and solemnity in the opening scenes, while fleeting, klezmer-like passages added zest to the dreamlike score." Lustig recently wrote an essay for New Music Box, "Pandemic, Blind Spots, and the Story of Ignaz Semmelweis," reflecting on his work in the context of today's crisis.

Lustig was featured in interviews about Semmelweis with Connecticut Public Radio, which aired on Morning Edition; WWFM's On a Positive Note; and KMFA's Staccato."

The obstetrician Ignác Semmelweis – who championed the practice of handwashing in the 19th century that is the foundation of today’s antiseptic procedures – has had a resurgence of interest during the current coronavirus outbreak. Semmelweis was an “outsider,” a “foreign” doctor, Hungarian, but living and working in Vienna’s top hospital in a xenophobic era. Amidst a devastating epidemic in 1846, Dr. Semmelweis discovered that the deadly disease was being spread to healthy mothers by the unclean hands of their own doctors. Tragically, the medical community rebelled against Semmelweis’ discovery. They scoffed at his findings, rejected his theory, stripped him of his credentials, and the doctor was subsequently driven into an insane asylum where he died alone. It was not until decades later that his discovery was validated and accepted.

Google, which paid tribute to Semmelweis in its March 20, 2020 Google Doodle, reported, “Today, Semmelweis is widely remembered as ‘the father of infection control,’ credited with revolutionizing not just obstetrics, but the medical field itself, informing generations beyond his own that handwashing is one of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of diseases.” In response to the Doodle, the Wall Street Journal deemed Semmelweis “The Unsung Pioneer of Handwashing,” with CNN, Newsweek, The Washington Post, and Radiolab telling the doctor’s story as well in March 2020.

Lustig says, “There has never been a more urgent moment in history to reflect on the mystery of insight, the tension between truth and hubris, our deadly myopic inertia, and the clear truth that we as a society need our full human participation, our fresh perspectives and brave new ideas, literally to survive. My hope is that, by giving vocal expression to the Semmelweis story – not just that of the man himself, but also of the women and mothers from whom he is inseparable – we may all be inspired by his refusal to remain silent on a truth that was not merely inconvenient, but intolerable.”

SEMMELWEIS owes its inception to The American Opera Project’s Composers and the Voice residency. Several early workshops, directed by Matt Gray, were staged with AOP’s generous support at Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn, HERE Arts in New York City, the New York Academy of Medicine, and South Oxford Space, Brooklyn, and selected for a special AOP workshop with eminent director Jonathan Miller. The National Arts Club (NYC) also presented a concert performance of the full music of SEMMELWEIS on Sept 11, 2017, conducted by Ryan McAdams, with executive producer Edward Andrews. Additional support comes from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, Ensemble Studio Theater, Musiktheater Wien, and Dr. Warren Widmann.

Deliverance is a WALK, not an Event!

Rwanda 2007

Kigali, Rwanda - March 13, 2007

Hello Dear Friends in Christ,

I am sorry for this delay in posting reports from our mission to Rwanda. We had only one day to travel 6 hr on mountainous road from Bujumbura, Burundi to Kigali, capital of Rwanda. The next day, School of Deliverance started at 9 am. As you can see, this was a very intensive schedule. After 3 days of conducting the School, we were the next day travelling again on a very mountainous road to northern Rwanda, to the city of Gisenyi. We just finnished yesterday our 3 day School of Deliverance 101 with mass deliverancein Gisenyi and arrived 3 hr ago back to Kigali. Tonight, we are flying to Kampala, capital of Uganda. Here, we will conduct our last 3 day School of Deliverance 101 and I will be on my way to Canada and Pastor Gideon to Nigeria.

More on Rwanda soon.

Lord bless you all

Pastor Joseph

Pride, Prejudice, and Professionalism

Pride, Prejudice, and Professionalism

Pride, Prejudice, and Professionalism

By Grace M. White, PT, DPT

Download the article (pdf)

Congratulations to Georgia State University Physical Therapy Program graduate Grace M. White, PT, DPT, a finalist of the annual physical therapy student essay contest co-sponsored by the ACAPT Consortium for the Humanities, Ethics, and Professionalism (CHEP) and the Journal of Humanities in Rehabilitation. This writing competition is designed to encourage deep thinking by students about the role and value of humanities, ethics, and professionalism in academic training and professional life. The third in an annual series, the CHEP-JHR essay contest offers a creative opportunity to ignite critical reflection in PT students across the nation, to support holistic approaches to patient care. This year’s essay prompt was, “As healthcare professionals, working closely with patients, families, and colleagues offers opportunities for meaningful connection. However, challenges may arise when we encounter perspectives, values, priorities, and communication styles different from our own. Describe a time when you were challenged in such a way, and how you responded.” In this essay, “Pride, Prejudice, and Professionalism,” Dr. White relates how she used patience, insight, and a clever strategy to overcome her patient’s sexist bias against her and deliver his treatment.

Pride, Prejudice, and Professionalism

“Women can’t be doctors – that’s just asking too much of them.” The words echoed as I opened the door to leave my patient’s room. I was three weeks into my clinical rotation at an assisted living facility when I met Earle.* In the weeks prior to this visit, I had become well-acquainted with most of the residents, staff, and family members at the facility. I had learned that Earle was a particularly difficult man to be around. Aside from making inappropriate comments, he was rude and pugnacious toward the staff, primarily the female healthcare providers. So, when I saw his name appear on the schedule, I knew his would be a difficult case. Earle was referred to physical therapy for muscular weakness and difficulty with ambulation.

The first time I stepped into Earle’s room, I was met with an exasperated sigh laced with disapproval. Before I finished introducing myself, he interjected, “With how complex the medical field is today, I’m surprised to see a girl pursuing a doctorate degree.” I tried to reason with him to no avail. I explained the rigor of my curriculum, the pre-requisites, and told him I was just as capable as all my fellow classmates, men and women alike.

Throughout the evaluation, he scoffed, made verbal jabs, and by the end refused to do anything more with me. He told me this was a waste of time; that he “would be ready when they send in a ‘real’ doctor.” I assumed he meant a male. He cut the session short and sent me away. I felt angry and defeated. As the oldest of three daughters, in a family with a fiercely strong mother and one in which “feminist” was a word used proudly, tolerating discrimination for being a woman was unacceptable. I was ashamed that I had let this man get to me. But something about this session and this patient struck me in a way I wasn’t expecting, and I found it increasingly difficult to shrug off his sexist commentary.

Rather than fight his glaringly stubborn mindset, I decided I would prove to Earle how capable I was in a different way: by helping him. After discussing the case with my male clinical instructor, we agreed that I would come up with a plan of care for Earle that my CI would implement. The next day, we met with Earle and as my CI began to take him through the exercises I planned, Earle followed—willingly and zealously—all the while ignoring me. We continued like this for a few weeks. I observed and assessed, adapting his treatment accordingly, and Earle rapidly improved.

Eventually, my CI told Earle that I was the one who designed his plan of care. He skipped his next three sessions. I began to think he wasn’t going to come back to physical therapy.

However, the following Friday, Earle stopped me in the hall and asked me a question about his back pain. It wasn’t an apology, but I knew he was extending an olive branch. He started coming to physical therapy again. At first, he was reluctant to take instructions from me— occasionally making an offensive remark—but eventually, he came around. It was by no means perfect, but we worked within a distinctly authentic dynamic. Our relationship was like pulling on opposite ends of a rope, but somehow meeting in the middle, compromising enough to achieve his goals during these sessions.

I think back to Earle often, particularly when I am facing a patient, classmate, or co-worker with a conflicting viewpoint. I reflect on the feelings of defeat and anger I experienced with Earle, but also on the moment when I realized I needed to reconcile my own feelings with my professional duty in treating a patient. We often don’t realize how deeply we hold certain truths, values, or beliefs until they are challenged by others. This experience showed me how much patience and practice it takes to navigate these circumstances, especially when caught off-guard.

It was not easy to ignore Earle’s unfounded prejudice toward me, but I knew that arguing with this man, acting unprofessionally, and ultimately not delivering the care I knew I was capable of, would only confirm his preconceived bias. Although we held vastly different beliefs, I provided the best care I possibly could. Instead of fighting with Earle, I chose to fight for him.

J. Krentz Design can supply Construction Project Shop Drawings for approval before any work starts in the shop or out on the construction site. Our shop drawings provide detailed assembly information and precise fabrication information in both 2d and 3d to help speed construction accuracy and reduce costs. Below are some of the standards we use when preparing shop drawings for your project.

Comparison information for the architect and engineer on Construction Project Shop Drawings

Shop drawings address the appearance, performance, and prescriptive descriptions in the specifications and construction drawings. Shop drawings are more detailed in description than the information shown in the construction documents provided by the architect and engineer. References to the construction documents, drawings, and specifications are provided to assist the architect and engineer in their review of the shop drawings. We strive to provide clear, accurate and schematically complete shop drawings to facilitate the architect’s and engineer’s approval of product fabrication and assembly before construction.

Notes of changes or alterations from the construction documents

Notes concerning changes or differences from the original Construction Project Shop Drawings documents will be made for the architect’s and engineer’s approval prior to the completion of final shop drawings. Ultimately, the architect and engineer of record are responsible for any changes to the construction documents and should have the opportunity to analyze these modifications. A dialogue between J. Krentz Design and the architect and engineer is necessary to resolve any areas needing clarification. Successful installations are the result of collaboration between J. Krentz Design, the designer, fabricator, and contractor.

Information needed to fabricate the product

Dimensions, manufacturing conventions, and special fabrication instructions are included in the shop drawings. Clarity and accuracy are paramount to our drawings. The construction documents are rarely used as a reference in fabrication or assembly, with the fabricators relying on the shop drawing for all information.

Indication of dimensions needing verification from the jobsite

In renovations existing dimensions need to be verified. A dimension may be shown on the Construction Project Shop Drawings, but the actual dimension may vary, from very small to large increments, depending on jobsite conditions. We will field measure all existing conditions as needed to ensure the shop drawings are accurate for fabrication and assembly.

Some fabricators and manufacturers will use company specific symbols, data, or instructions concerning installation. We will work with the fabricator and contractor to prepare shop drawings that work in their language to provide the smoothest most cost effective transition from drawing to assembly.

Crypto Community Reacts to Ripple CEO’s Hint at Company IPO

Crypto Community Reacts to Ripple CEO’s Hint at Company IPO

Yesterday, it was revealed that the chief executive of Ripple Labs, Brad Garlinghouse, made a massive announcement during an event surrounding the World Economic Forum of 2020 in Davos, Switzerland.

At the Wall Street Journal event, Garlinghouse said that he believes in the next 12 months, âyou’ll see initial public offerings in the crypto/blockchain space.â

Garlinghouse, touching on the long-held sentiment that Ripple will eventually issue shares on the public market, went on to say that âWe’re not going to be the first and we’re not going to be the last, but I expect us to be on the leading sideâ¦ it’s a natural evolution for our company.â

In other words, Garlinghouse thinks it is a ânatural evolutionâ for his company to issue shares on public stock exchanges.

Of course, this comment quickly elicited a massive response from the crypto community. Some were positive, some were negative, and some were neutral.

Community Responds to Potential Ripple IPO

One of the most notable responses to this news was one from Bully, a cryptocurrency commentator who works as a lawyer. The pseudonymous commentator posted the below tweet, seemingly throwing shade at Ripple’s intent to issue shares on public exchanges, further adding to his point by publishing an image from South Park that says: 1) start up, 2) cash in, 3) sell out, and 4) bro down.

More seriously, prominent XRP and Ripple commentator GreenEggsnHam, who sports over 16,000 followers on Twitter, wrote that this news is disappointing to hear to him. The commentator specifically looked to the fact that Ripple has âhalf a billion dollars in cash and billions more in XRP escrow,â which would suggest that there is no need for the company to raise funds on public markets. They continued:

This is nothing but a wealth transfer mechanism and I find it utterly disgusting. There is zero reason for Ripple to become a publicly traded company â they don’t need the funds. I expected more from these guys.

This comment garnered hundreds of likes from others in the cryptocurrency community.

On the other side of things, XRP bull and eerily accurate cryptocurrency trader Credible Crypto shared an article from popular Ripple community member Hodor, in which he laid out the potential effects a public listing of shares of the fintech company could have on Ripple itself:

This influx of capital from an IPO is used by the company to expand and achieve far greater levels of growth than they otherwise wouldâ¦

Hodor suggested that if his calculations of a large multi-billion-dollar IPO is correct, the company could bag big business deals, enlist powerful marketing campaigns, and acquire many companies to help push the adoption of its technology.

This potential demand might not be hearsay. Per previous reports from Ethereum World News, the company was late last year valued at $10 billion in the venture capital markets in a $200 million Series C funding round. This made it more valuable than WeWork.

The Corbyn Rate

What interest rate would you charge to lend money to Corbyn? Imagine that Jeremy Corbyn managed to push Labour and its allies past the parliamentary majority of 321. What would happen to the UK gilt market?

by John Royden

Head of Research

Well, let’s step back and ask if it could happen? The Tories and the DUP hold a thin five seat majority driven by their combined 326 seats, over the key pivot point of 321 seats.

In the 2010 to 2015 Parliament there were 21 by-elections due to six deaths and 14 resignations and one re-run. That’s a rate of approximately four by-elections per annum.

If Labour won all four of the expected by-elections each year, Labour could climb from 262 seats to 282 over the next five years. At that point a Labour + SNP (35 seats) + Plaid Cymru (4 seats) coalition could perhaps get them across the 321 line by the time of the next election. That assumes that all by-elections are caused by Tory deaths and resignations with Labour wins; which is unrealistic.

But at that rate of four by-elections per annum, in just over one year, the Tory / DUP alliance could fall to a hung parliament if opposition parties won all the by-elections; with the Lib Dems and their twelve seats then being in the position of king maker. The question then would be, at what point the hung parliament drives another general election?

A general election driven by a mid-term hung parliament looks like being Corbyn’s best chance. Would he win? Corbyn appears to have Momentum (capital “M” intended) on his side. He surprised everybody with a result that was, in my opinion, partly driven by Momentum’s clever use of soft social media posts. These emphasised the softer side of Labour’s policies and ignored the economic impact: for example, free university education without working out who was going to pay for it.

The question then would be, at what point the hung parliament drives another general election?

The next step in this process is to work out what the effect of Labour policies would be. My reading of others’ assessments of the impact of Labour’s unfunded electoral promises seems to point to the national debt rising from c£1.75 trillion to c£2 trillion. I am uncertain of Labour’s own funding calculations given that in a meeting between a CEO of one of our preferred major utility companies and a prominent Labour politician, the Labour man said that they could nationalise the utility company without the use of debt. When pushed on the matter by the CEO, the Labour man said that they would use bonds. It appears that Labour do not consider bonds to be debt. Perhaps if they were irredeemable, zero interest rate bonds, he might have a case.

I have distant childhood memories of the previous hard-left socialist government of Harold Wilson. The internet tells me that the top rate of income tax was 83% on income above £20,000, but I recall my parents’ friends complaining that the unearned income tax surcharge took the rate to 101%. From what I remember, the tax and spend policies alienated investors who then found themselves unable to take their money out of the country due to tighter capital controls; the foreign currency allowance for my 1976 holiday in France was only £15. Attempts to transfer assets were also thwarted by the wide scope of the Capital Transfer Tax (basically a tax on gifts) with a top rate of 75%.

The foreign currency allowance for my
holiday in France was only

I conclude that a Corbynist government’s higher taxes, and the more likely threats of inflation and capital controls, would raise the returns demanded by investors. So interest rates would rise and gilts would fall. Whilst the probability of this is less than likely, it encourages us to stay with our current call of short dated bonds.

Non-Compete Contract Lawyers

Skilled Business Litigation Attorneys Fighting For Your Right To Work

Many employers ask employees and contractors to sign non-compete contracts. These contracts restrict the ability of employees to leave one company for another, competing company. These contracts typically apply to knowledge workers and professionals such as physical therapists, investment advisors, salespeople in specialized industries, and information technology specialists.

Why Hire Our Law Firm For Your Non-Compete Agreement Litigation?

At the Birmingham, Alabama, law firm of Johnstone Carroll, LLC, we have developed a particular focus on cases involving employees whose former employers are trying to enforce non-competes. Attorney Matthew F. Carroll has developed significant experience related to Alabama non-compete agreements, using his knowledge to teach other lawyers and to write articles on the subject for legal publications.

How Our Law Firm Helps With Problems Involving Non-Competes

Each case and situation are different. However, some of the steps we are likely to take include:

  • Review and evaluate proposed non-compete agreements before they are signed to determine whether they are legal under Alabama law
  • Advise clients about the likely outcome of their actions if they contemplate changing companies
  • Advise prospective new employers of the likely outcome of hiring an individual with a non-compete agreement with a previous employer
  • Ask questions that will help determine the enforceability of the non-compete agreement. Was the employee paid for signing the agreement? We he or she already working before being asked to sign a non-compete?
  • We provide clients with honest, realistic information. In addition to providing advice and counsel about non-competes, we can seek declaratory judgments to resolve a matter quickly or prepare for more lengthy litigation. Whatever we do, it is always in the best interests of the client.

An Example Of A Non-Compete Agreement Issue

Non-compete cases can be tricky. Even though Alabama law tends to favor employees, there are many exceptions to this scenario. Having a knowledgeable lawyer like Matt Carroll can make a huge difference. For example, an employer could claim that the individual covered by the non-compete was essential to the business. Mr. Carroll will investigate claims like these to determine their truthfulness. Proving that an employee was not “essential” can make a non-compete agreement unenforceable, allowing an employee to accept employment with a competing firm. We are known for spending the time necessary to investigate and build strong cases.

Contact Our Non-Compete Lawyers

With offices in Homewood, Alabama, lawyers F. Inge Johnstone and Matt Carroll help clients with non-compete agreements in Jefferson County, Blount County, St. Clair County, Walker County and Shelby County in the Birmingham area and throughout the state. Call 205-383-1809 or contact us by email to arrange a free initial consultation with our Birmingham attorneys today.

Interpreting and Markers in Nigerian Courtroom Discourse

Farinde Raifu Olanrewaju, Oyedokun Alli, Wasiu Ademola

It has already been affirmed that power and control embedded in questions varies according to question type (Luchjenbroers 1999, Rigney 1999 etc). The paper ranges question types according to their degree of control and observes that those with high degree of control lost their power and control through the process of interpreting. It is further observed that since lawyers always maintain power and control through the type of questions they ask (such as declarative, yes/no, alternative questions) they are at the losing end whenever there is the need for court interpreter. Similarly, the use of discourse markers in the court (such as now, so, and, ok), also signifies lawyer’s power and control over the witnesses and defendants and these are always used to further enhance the power, coercion and challenging nature of the lawyers (see Hale 1999). The study further notes that the power and control of questions coating discourse markers are always reducing through the process of interpreting. The paper opines that the presence of courtroom interpreters in court reduces the power and control of lawyers in court.

Startups: Help vets, help the economy

States that excel in business formation possess ecosystems that encourage entrepreneurship.

Douglas P. McCormick Michael T. Ertmer

Bunker Labs is mustering veterans, entrepreneurs, business leaders and elected officials to attack the biggest impediment to financial security for Wisconsin citizens — a lack of entrepreneurship.

Entrepreneurship is one of the best ways to grow the economy and promote financial security. A recent Kauffman Foundation study has generated lots of discussion, and controversy, across the state about the health of entrepreneurship in Wisconsin. According to the report, Wisconsin ranked last for start-up activity among the largest 25 states in the nation. While there are valid reasons to debate the methodology and accuracy of the state ranking, there should be no ambiguity about the conclusion: Wisconsin can, and must, do a better job encouraging and nurturing start-up activity.

The last place ranking is particularly surprising given Wisconsin’s significant size, resources and talent that have resulted in greater levels of entrepreneurship elsewhere in America. We have a large developed economy with significant accumulated wealth. Nearly 5% of Wisconsinites have more than $1 million of assets. Wisconsin touts an excellent public education system with one of the best graduation rates in the country and strong universities that rank in the top five for federal research and development funding. The Badger state showcases a thriving business base.

Given these strengths, Wisconsin should be able to effectively compete for its fair share of venture capital funding. This is the money and know-how that has supported major innovators of our time such as Amazon, Google, Facebook and Uber. Unfortunately, this is not the case.

The Venture Capital Association reports that in the past two years, Wisconsin attracted less than 1% of available national venture funding. This should scare Cheeseheads statewide; it portends a future of low growth and an exodus of young minds trained at our universities.

The current state of economic opportunity in Wisconsin is strong, illustrated by an unemployment rate that is consistently a full percentage point below the national average. However, the long-term prospects for job creation in the state will be dominated by start-ups and new businesses yet to be created. They will drive innovation.

States that excel in business formation possess ecosystems that encourage entrepreneurship through market incentives that attract talent, reward risk-taking and create successful entrepreneurs. There is no single solution to our entrepreneurship conundrum, but Wisconsin’s 400,000 military veterans have an important role to play, providing experienced leaders for the state’s aspiring start-ups and small businesses.

More than 80% of today’s active duty service members will navigate a mid-career transition to the civilian sector — including 200,000 this year. These veterans are young, ambitious and possess the critical personality characteristics required to be successful entrepreneurs.

But today’s veterans lack capital, access to a business network, and “entrepreneurial know how” as a direct result of deployments and relocating during their service. Bunker Labs is committed to overcoming these disadvantages by inspiring, educating and connecting veterans to the start-up community, business leaders and each other. Wisconsin’s business and political leaders must join us to ensure that we create both access to capital and an ecosystem to support a vibrant start-up community and help veterans lead the way.

Douglas P. McCormick is a former active-duty Army officer turned investor and entrepreneur. He is a board member of Bunker Labs Wisconsin, a non-profit that provides educational programming and other help to military veterans who want to start businesses. Michael T. Ertmer is a former active-duty Army officer and Silicon Valley engineer turned entrepreneur. He founded Bunker Labs Wisconsin Inc.

The Juice Academy Celebrate as three Apprentices are Shortlisted for the Made in Manchester Awards

Three apprentices from The Juice Academy have been shortlisted for the Apprenticeship of the Year category at the Made in Manchester Awards, meaning nearly half of those shortlisted in total hail from the UK’s first industry led social media programme.

Niall Wilson, of Pharmacist Supports, Sammie Williams, of POP Marketing and Jack Bocock, of Tunafish Media, are now through to the interview stage which will take place on the 5th January.

Pending successful interviews, the apprentices will be invited to the awards cermony on the 2nd February, to be held at the Hilton Manchester Deansgate Hotel.

Sammie Williams said: “I’m so proud to have made the shortlist, especially amongst so many other talented individuals. I’m looking forward to the interview in January and hope I can do enough to get through to the awards in February!”

Sandy Lindsay MBE, chair of Tangerine and The Juice Academy, added: “To have three of our apprentices nominated really speaks volumes about the quality of apprentices The Academy consistently produces.”

“Since launching in 2013, The Juice Academy has placed over 180 young people in positions across the North West and we’re so proud that Sammie, Niall and Jack will be recognised for their hard work."

The brainchild of Manchester’s Tangerine, The Juice Academy was launched to increase youth employment and fill an industry-wide skills gap by training young professionals in the practical application of social media.

The Wimbly Lu Journey

Three years ago, I received an e-mail from two women looking for a career change, and finding the answer in chocolate. We met and I listened to their tales of Wimbledon, their Volkswagen Beetle, and chocolatier classes. This was one of those rare days when perfect strangers came together to fulfil each other's dreams. They wanted to start a chocolate cafe, and I, up to this point, had been hoping for a small branding project. A cafe, preferably.

I conceptualized the logo based on our long chat that day, but most specifically, the Jln Riang shophouse that they were going to inhabit. From the way they spoke of their intended renovations, I already had a sense that the place was going to be 90% of their brand. Wimbly Lu, after all, was also half a reference to a place: WImbledon. The strong love of physical space and ambience ran through these two entrepreneurs. So I aimed to turn the physical building of Wimbly Lu into their trademark.

Wimbly Lu quickly became packed every night. It still is the kind of place that I liken to another world within a wardrobe. Not hipster and industrial, no, but very charming in a warm, rustic way.

Three years later, they met me to talk about Little Wimbly Lu. The new venue would be welcomed by patrons who couldn't find parking at Jln Riang, or who weren't keen on joining the queue. Again, this logo was based on interior drawings they did of their intended renovations. If you visit the outlet, you will find that it is one big house-shaped outline of lights.

Finally there was Three Years in a Balloon. The name was a nod to their three years on the Wimbly Lu journey. We came to a psychic mutual agreement that the balloon should have steampunk, old-world-voyager references. A makeshift ship, an adventurer's vehicle. This was easy to do because we understood each other.

It's not always so easy. Nor do most clients ask for my particular style of illustration. But once in a while the perfect matches happen.

Welsh Lovespoons

In the old days in Wales, a young man would carve a fancy spoon to give to the girl that he wanted to court. (The expression "to spoon" comes from this custom.) It was important to prove to the potential father-in-law that the young man was good at working with wood, because he would have to make all his family's furniture, dishes and eating utensils. The symbols carved into the spoon's handle all had meanings. Hearts are for love, of course. Bells are for the hoped-for wedding. A horseshoe is for luck (in Wales, a bride and groom are always given a horseshoe on their wedding day). A wheel promised, "I will work for you." Circles in a cage could mean either the number of children hoped for, or the number of years together. And so forth; there is a long list of possible symbols. Today lovespoons are often given as wedding and anniversary gifts; however, they are also given for birthdays, baby gifts, friendship, Christmas, etc. They are considered to be folk craft items first, and, under the right circumstances, romantic items as well.

How to Set Goals in Ramadan

how to set goals in ramadan

A dear friend of mine, Mai ElFarnawany, gave an amazing talk on productivity during Ramadan recently. We constantly hear about the importance of productivity during Ramadan, protecting our time and filling it with forms of worship. Many of us feel inspired with Ramadan approaching, yet when we begin fasting and days pass, we slowly drift into old habits or find it difficult to achieve the goals we were hoping to. Before we know it, Ramadan is over and we feel like we fell short and the disappointment and guilt overtakes us. So therefore, we know that we must do things differently if we are not achieving success, but how, and where do we start? The main idea behind achieving productivity is to prepare and set goals. So here is where Mai's talk comes in. Not only was she incredibly inspiring and informative, but also extremely practical. Mai mentioned the idea of using the word Ramadan as a criterion on how to set our goals. Each letter standing for a different way on how we should set our goals, what our goals should look like, and how to maintain them. Seems fairly straight forward and easy to remember right? So let's start setting and accomplishing our goals for this Ramadan inshallah.

R: Relevant. We need to find goals that are relevant. These goals are relevant if they help us achieve our ultimate goal which is to get closer to Allah (SWT). These goals also have to therefore be relevant to you personally. Is this goal going to work for your life and allow you to build that connection with Allah? This relevance has to also be linked to the Quran in some way as Ramadan itself is linked to the Quran.

A: Aspirational. We always hear about setting goals to be achievable, but in Ramadan our goals should not just be achievable, but aspirational. We should push ourselves out of our comfort zone, to improve and reach new heights and maintain that level throughout the rest of the year until the next Ramadan.

M: Measurable. To be able to successfully achieve our goals during Ramadan, they have to be something we can specifically keep track of and hold ourselves accountable to. For example, I will read 1 page of Quran every day, or I will read for 15 minutes every day. The more specific you get as well, the easier it will be to maintain it, as you will set this goal into your mind and into your day.

A: Assess. We have to be able to assess our goals and it can be whenever and however we chose. Whether that means at the end of the day you write in your journal or have a spreadsheet you check off everyday, the importance is that you're able to track if you're meeting these goals. Umar Ibn Khattab (ra) said, "bring yourself to account before you are taken to account, and weigh your deeds before you deeds are weighed". If you record and keep track of your actions today before the day of judgment, then you will become more aware of what will be presented to Allah on that very day.

D: Definite. Make things clear, precise and relate it to yourself and include the word "I" into your goal sentence. For example, "I want to read 1 Juz from the Quran every day". Mai mentions in her talk that your brain registers the "I" and continues to remind you to complete this task.

A: Appointment/Agenda. Just as we would set doctors appointments into our schedule so that we remember to go, we also need to set specific appointments with Allah in our day. Find an empty spot in your day, even if it is 15 minutes on your way to work, or 30 minutes before you go to sleep, and block that time. We're more inclined to complete our goals when we have set appointments with them.

N: Novelty. Have you been stuck setting the same goals and not been able to achieve them? This year, set new goals so that you're able to achieve what you're wanting to this Ramadan. There are many pathways of connection to Allah, so try a different path if your other ones are not working. Your brain registers previous goals that were unsuccessful as just that, not successful, and therefore pushes you away from achieving them as they reside in a negative mindset. Negative goals have the same affect on your productivity. Try to set goals that use the terms "I am going to do___" rather than "I am not going to do ___". A negative goal can become very consuming in your mind and thats all you may start to think about. A positive, new goal can help change your mindset and aid in achieving your goal and ultimately bring you closer to Allah, which is our main purpose.

 how to set goals in ramadan

So using these 7 letters from the word Ramadan, Mai continued in her talk to give advise about how to practically implement these types of goals into our schedule:

1. Look at your calendar and find the times where goals can be placed.

2. Look at your daily consistent routines and identify which routines can allow for you to accomplish a goal. If you attach a goal to this routine that is already in your schedule then you know you are more likely to achieve this goal during this time.

3. Have a different plan for the weekend and the weekdays as these days may be different.

4. Remember about barakah. If you are finding your schedule to be extremely busy and it appears that there is no time to fit goals into, remember that when you're intentions are for Allah and you're doing something to get closer to Allah, then there will be baraqah in it and you'll be able to achieve this goal even if it doesn't appear possible. Time will become longer you will be able to be more productive, efficient and achieve more. Therefore even if your schedule doesn't appear to have the space, block in your goal anyways with the intention for Allah and inshallah you will be able to achieve it.

A big shoutout and credit goes towards Mai who gave great insight into how to be productive and set effective goals during Ramadan! I'm just glad to have been there to pass these tips onto you and inshallah you will find them helpful. Remember, even though Ramadan has started, it is not too late if you did not get off on the right foot. Start now and end Ramadan the way you intended to!

No One Wants a Warty Nose

Dr. Benjamin Stong Facial Plastic Surgeon in Atlanta

When you have rosacea, the symptoms can be embarrassing. You never know when your face is going to flame up and then stay red. The small pimples over your nose, cheeks, and chin make you feel like a teenager all over again. But when you started developing small, warty-looking blemishes on your nose, that was the final straw.

Rhinophyma is part of the third stage of rosacea. Your nose gets thicker. It develops small spots that look like warts or maybe small pimples. But they don’t go away. In fact, more develop on top of the first ones, slowly disfiguring your nose and face.

The psychological effects of rhinophyma can be devastating. When you look in the mirror, you don’t see the same face you’ve always known. Instead, you wonder about what other people are seeing when they look at you. You don’t feel attractive anymore, and your self-confidence seems non-existent.

At Kalos Plastic Surgery, Dr. Stong helps patients with rosacea to overcome the distortion caused by the disease. Techniques to help rhinophyma may include:

Dermabrasion: At the K-Spa, we offer many facial treatments to rejuvenate your skin. While dermabrasion is not typically used on rosacea patients, there has been some success in using it to remove the small spots from early stages of rhinophyma. Because some people may find dermabrasion to be irritating, so we also offer…

Laser Therapy: With lasers, we are able to remove the small spots caused by the thickening of the nose. However, as the nose increases in size, becoming more bulbous and covered in blemishes, you may want…

Surgery: Double board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Stong, can revise the thickened nasal tissue, remove the wart-like spots, and return your nose to its former glory. You’ll recognize yourself in the mirror again and your self-confidence will return!

No congregational prayers at Jamia for 13th Friday; Khoje-Digar disallowed

Restrictions a preventive measure, says official, people make failed attempt to offer prayers at Khawajabazar, police use tear gas shells, mild clashes in area

Nasir Azam

Srinagar, Nov 01 (KNO): Authorities on Friday imposed strict curbs in downtown Srinagar to disallow the congregational Friday prayers at the historic Jamia masjid for the 13thconsecutive week and to bar people from participating in the traditional Khoje-Digar prayers at revered shrine of Hazrat Naqshband sahib (RA) at Khojebazar area of Srinagar’s Old City.

Meanwhile, life continued to remain out of gear across Kashmir for the 89th straight day—the first day after Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh were declared as Union Territories (UTs) officially.

Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, who continues to remain under house arrest since August 5, who would otherwise address devotees at Hazrat Naqshband sahib shrine (RA) on the eve of Khoje-Digar, the congregational Asr prayers, wasn’t allowed to reach the shrine, first time in the recent years.

Witnesses told the wire service –Kashmir News Observer (KNO) that security forces were deployed in strength across downtown including Nowhatta, Maharaj Gunj, Rainawari and Khanyar areas while as all the major roads were sealed with reams of concertina wires.   “Nobody was allowed to move on the streets, let alone private traffic. Only security vehicles could be seen plying while as security forces personnel wearing riot gear were patrolling the roads,” said a resident of Nowhatta, pleading not to be quoted by name.

As per KNO, he said that deployment was more in Nowhatta and Khawaja Bazar areas of downtown in view of Friday and the traditional Khoje-Digar—the congregational Asr prayers offered at the revered shrine of Hazrat Naqshband Sahib (RA) every year to mark the annual Urs of the saint.

Every year, hundreds of people would assemble at the shrine to participate in the congregational Asr prayers. Mirwaiz Umar Farooq would lead special prayers for repentance before the prayers and also shed light on the saint’s religious contribution.

Locals of downtown expressed their deep anguish and anger over the decision of authorities for not allowing Khoj-e-Digar. “This is religious interference and we strongly condemn this. Our religious sentiments and emotions stand badly hurt as this occasion comes once in a year and yet we were barred from participating in this spiritual event,” said aged Khawaja Abdul Aziz, a resident of Khanyar area of downtown, Srinagar.

Witnesses said that people made unsuccessful bid to offer Asr prayers at Naqsband Sahab (RA) shrine but were dispersed as police fired a few tear gas shells at the devotees. Mild clashes also broke out in the area.

As per the residents of downtown, congregational prayers were not allowed at the historic Jamia Masjid for the 13th Friday in a row as all the entry and exit gates of the grand masjid remained closed amid heavy deployment of security forces.

“Nobody was allowed to walk towards the historic Masjid. A few elderly people tried to walk towards Masjid, but they were asked to go back by the security men at Nowhatta chowk,” an eye-witness told KNO.

A senior police officer said that curbs were imposed in downtown parts given three reasons, Friday, Khoje-Digar and the first day of J&K as a Union Territory (UT). “Restrictions were put in place to ensure there is no law and order incident,” the officer said.

People will have to face tougher days ahead if military onslaught is not stopped: Geelani

Srinagar, Jul 09 (KNO) : Commenting on the second report about human rights violations in Jammu and Kashmir by forces, issued by United Nations Human Rights Commission, Hurriyat Conference (G) chairman Syed Ali Geelani Tuesday said that although ‘Indian atrocities and barbarism’ has crossed all the limits and is continuing unabated for the last 71 years.

“It is for the second time that UN has realized the gravity and severity of this grave and grim situation and recommended for the commission, to probe human rights violations,” Geelani said in a statement issued to KNO.

He said that this world body has testified our stand that Indian armed forces under the undemocratic and unethical shield of legal impunity continue the genocide of Kashmiris, with bullets, pellets, torture, rape, humiliation and incarceration. He further said that if this military onslaught is not stopped, people of the state will have to face tougher and harsher days ahead.

Commenting on the India’s rejection of the report, Geelani said that “it was expected as India has been holding this land by the deceit and denial for the last 71 years, but there ‘fairy trail rhetoric’ can no longer hold water in the age of modern and latest technology where nothing remains hidden from the sharp eyes of the lens, which displays even the minute details of the incident.”

Geelani appealed UN rights body to take serious note of this brazen denial of facts and pressurize India to abide by the universal obligations and fulfill long pending UN resolution on Jammu and Kashmir to pave way for permanent peace and prosperity in the region.(KNO)

KNBS asks media to report objectively on census results

Written By: Judith Akolo

Director-General of the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) Zachary Mwangi

The Director-General of the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) Zachary Mwangi has asked the media to report objectively on the recently released National Population and Housing Census 2019 provisional results.

KBC Radio_KICD Timetable

Mwangi said the Census results are 99% accurate and that the enumeration was carried out with precision through use of information technology.

“This success is attributed to the dedication and hard work by all Census personnel, cooperation by the public and the use of modern digital technology during the entire census process,” said Mwangi and added, “Effective use of digital technology ensured the speed of data processing and data security. This contributed to the short time within which the census results were released.”

“The results followed administrative boundaries which are not necessarily one to one with the political boundaries,” he said.

Mwangi said population size is influenced by fertility, mortality and migration and should not be seen from the single dimension of births and fertility alone. While giving an update on the National Population and Housing Census 2019 provisional results, Mwangi said KNBS is developing more publications from the census results through further processing of the data and “will provide an explanation for the magnitude of numbers that have been released.”

He said by February next year, the Bureau will release a publication on population numbers up to sublocation level adding that the current publications are according to administrative locations of the National, the Counties and Sub-Counties. By August 2020 the Bureau will generate census by fertility rate, mortality rate and migration.

Other reports to be released by KNBS are Population distribution by administrative units (up to sub-location level); Population Distribution by Age and Sex by county; Population distribution by Political units (constituencies and wards) and Population distribution by Housing and Socio-economic characteristics.

By the end of August 2020 KNBS hopes to prepare in-depth analytical reports including; Education, Housing, disability, mortality, labour force, fertility and nuptiality. “These reports will be released before end August 2020,” he added.

How the COVID-19 pandemic highlights the need for class consciousness among physicians

What labor struggles do a grocery worker, custodian, and doctor in the United States have in common? A few months ago, many people’s answers may have been – not much. But ever since the COVID-19 pandemic hit, our shared challenges are becoming ever more apparent.

The pandemic is revealing that physicians, under our current for-profit medical system, are workers. Doctors are being expected to labor in dangerous settings for long hours and without appropriate protective gear. Health systems continue to prioritize their bottom line over workers’ lives.

Although more apparent now, the exploitation of doctors is not new. In fact, Marx, writing the Communist Manifesto in the 19th century, viewed physicians as members of the working class: “The bourgeoisie [i.e., wealthy members of the upper class] … has converted the physician … the man of science into its paid wage laborers.”

It may sound strange to call doctors “working class,” given their relatively high incomes and prestige. However, under capitalism, doctors, like other workers, are compensated for only a portion of the true value of their labor. The surplus value — or the difference between the true value of their labor and what they are paid — becomes profit for the bourgeoisie. This holds true even for physicians who are self-employed physicians or in the public and nonprofit sectors since they remain beholden to the insurance, pharmaceutical, and medical supply industries.

Consequences of this exploitation include working long hours, sacrificing time with family, and alienation from the true practice of their craft (i.e., being forced to squeeze patient care into short 15-minute visits), ultimately resulting in high rates of burnout and suicide within the profession.

The “professionalization” of doctors helps conceal these processes of exploitation, obscuring them from the public eye and even from doctors themselves. Most doctors ideologically align with the bourgeoisie and believe they have escaped the working class. This mentality, ironically, can actually lead to a double exploitation. In addition to the siphoning off of their surplus value, many doctors voluntarily work longer hours and take on extra tasks out of a sense of professional obligation.

This “professionalization” also alienates physicians from their fellow workers. A tiny percentage of physicians across the country are unionized, even though the majority are employees at health care institutions. And physicians are among the least politically active groups, voting at much lower rates compared to other comparable professions and being less involved in community organizing spaces.

Now, the veil is being lifted. It’s clearer than ever that the dangers doctors face are shared with all other health workers. Corporations, not health workers, hold the reins to decide how essential supplies are produced and distributed. And doctors are realizing that their ability to survive the pandemic is linked to all essential workers, including farmworkers, grocery, and postal employees.

This opens up a wealth of opportunity for cross-sector solidarity. Health workers of all stripes are joining together in the fight for occupational protections and testing, led in large part by the powerful organizing of nurses’ unions. Physicians can also join with other worker-led movements to combat job loss, evictions, incarceration, and deportations during COVID-19, and to fight for adequate protections for all essential workers. Recognizing the material reality of our higher wages and relatively secure jobs, we can redistribute our earnings within our communities and/or offer clinical skills directly through mutual aid programs.

In joining together as workers, we gain power not only to support each other, but to topple capitalist health care. The current system prioritizes profits overhealing and has resulted in a decimated public health infrastructure unable to adequately respond to the current pandemic. Furthermore, triaging who gets ventilators and who gets tested is perpetuating the racism, sexism, ableism, and transphobia that thrive so well under capitalism.

All workers now have an opportunity to envision what a new health care system could look like, organized around community self-determination, rather than the profit motive. According to Marx, to achieve true revolution, the working class has to seize the means of production; in this case, the structures and resources of health care. What would that look like under COVID-19? How can we start creating material shifts? How can we draw from models outside of the US to get us closer to that goal?

These are scary, disorienting, and often tragic times. The life of the capitalist system is prioritized over our lives and the future of the planet. In addition to responding to the immediate needs during the pandemic, we hope that doctors take this moment to critically examine our position within capitalism and commit to worker solidarity. It is only together that we can collectively combat not only the pandemic, but the global threats of capitalism. We must join our fellow workers in building towards a more equitable future on the other side of the coronavirus.
