Researchers say consider enzymes from the start to broaden industrial applications of nature’s catalysts

Valerio Ferrario

This lipase is one of the most largely employed enzymes in industry

Taking an unconventional approach to biocatalysis has allowed scientists in Italy to improve enzyme recyclability with a solvent-free reaction mixture. And by emphasising a need to design processes, biocatalysts and reactors together, instead of separately, they hope to widen the industrial applications of nature’s catalysts.

Lucia Gardossi, from the University of Trieste in Italy, has been investigating solvent-free reaction mixtures, which appeal to industry because of their comparably small production volumes and lack of organic solvents to dispose of. Although their efficiency and selectivity are attractive, biocatalysed versions of industrial reactions are rarely economically viable. The typically viscous reaction mixtures require vigorous mixing, which damages the enzymes and limits their recyclability.

Gardossi’s team’s solution involves a thin film with enzymes covalently immobilised on resin carriers that they tested on a lipase-driven polyesterification. This system preserved the enzyme’s integrity, as the reaction mixture does not need to not stirred, improving recyclability.

The research emphasised the need to stop trying to use enzymes as normal catalysts. Instead of using general reactors, under standard conditions, processes need to be designed specifically to suit biocatalysts. ‘In many cases process engineering, enzymology and organic chemistry are treated and developed in parallel. In the future, if we want to design very efficient processes, we will have to integrate these from the beginning through a multidisciplinary approach,’ explains Gardossi.

Thin films enabled this solvent-free enzymatic polycondensation and could be replicated for other biotransformations

Polona Znidarsic, who researches ways to incorporate microreactor technology into biotechnology, at the University of Ljubljana in Slovenia, praises the researchers’ achievements: ‘By addressing several key parameters, this study represents an important step towards sustainable and economical industrial polyester production.’

The group are now looking to improve the sustainability of their system, by replacing the current petroleum-based carrier resins with ones made from biomass.

A new architect has been been selected to progress and advance the multi-million pound Chester Northgate regeneration scheme to detailed design.

Manchester-based AHR will join an array of specialist advisors working with Cheshire West and Chester Council to bring forward the £60m initial phase of the project.

The regeneration scheme is the largest to be delivered in the city centre for many years.

Dominic Manfredi, director at AHR and a resident of the borough, said: “The Chester Northgate scheme is set to deliver a fantastic boost to the city and we’re tremendously pleased to have been appointed to the project.

"The development will reinforce the leisure and culture offering at the heart of the transformation of the city delivering a new relocated dynamic and modern market, six-screen cinema, host of new restaurants and public square.

A new image of what the new market hall and cinema would look like within a new civic square as part of the proposed £300m Northgate Development.

“The project will also provide vital new car parking. This will increase capacity and ensure visitors can enjoy the development and the wider city centre with ease, benefitting local businesses across the city.

“We’re confident that this ambitious project will help further strengthen Chester’s reputation as one of the North West’s premier destinations.”

AHR has replaced previous architects, London-based ACME, after the authority looked to appoint more local based practice with specific skills appropriate to delivery of first phase of development.

Northgate is part of the One City Plan 2012-2027 which guides development decisions across the city, providing an economic boost and more jobs in the heart of Chester.

AHR is working with several local authorities across the UK on public-sector-led regeneration plans, with the practice’s multi-service and multi-sector nature valuable in transforming the varied that integrate to help regenerate communities and enhance town centres.

Building work for the initial phase of Chester Northgate - due to cost £300m - is set to start early 2020.

Updated plans for phase 1 will be released in spring 2019.

Pre-construction and enabling works are due to start in autumn 2019 and construction on site in early 2020.

The latest timetable has a phase 1 completion in spring 2021.

Join the CVS Career Cruise

Bob the Would-Be Carpenter

A story for Chippewa Valley students planning for high school
By Michael J. McGahey

Bob was a senior in high school, and was looking forward to graduation in June, and to beginning a life away from school. But he did not know where he wanted to go or what he wanted to do, and he was not alone. His class had never received any career development instruction; they had never explored their interests and the world of work. Many of them lacked a sense of direction and plans.

When asked about post-high-school plans, one of Bob's classmates indicated that his plan was to buy a motorcycle, ride it out to California, spend a year cruising up and down the coast while learning to surf, and then he would come back to Michigan and get a job! There was no indication of how this adventure would be financed or what the job might be! One of the young ladies in the class said that her plan was to convert her part-time job into a full-time job, work and save money for a couple years, then marry, have babies, and stay home raising a family. Does this sound a little like the "Cinderella myth"? The reality in our world is that over 60% of women who have babies in the U.S. are back at work in less than 6 months. Career development is as important for females as it is for males.

Bob's English teacher became aware of this need for direction and he created a Career Development Unit for the class. Students completed interest surveys, researched careers, developed resumes, interviewed people in interesting careers, and wrote "Thank You" notes. This was interesting work. How could it not be? - It was all about them and they were interesting people!

As luck would have it, the school counselors had planned a Career Day at about the same time that the unit was ending. This event involved about 50 guests from a variety of occupations sitting at tables in the gym, available throughout the day. Students came with their English classes, because everybody had English, and they had the opportunity to talk with representatives from a variety of careers. There were travel agents, lawyers, accountants, nurses, radiologists, physical therapists, engineers, truck drivers, cosmetologists (who actually did a hair cut and styling in the middle of the gym). There were skilled tradesmen - electricians, plumbers, carpenters, heating and cooling technicians, auto body repairers, and many more. Mr. M's English class was finishing the career development unit and they eagerly went to the Career Day expo.

The class was gone for about 45 minutes. When they returned, Bob came in the door outrageously angry! Mr. M had never seen Bob angry like that. Bob couldn't even talk; he just snarled snarl and stomped around the room and snarled incoherently some more. He looked like he was going to put a fist through a cinder block in the wall! And Bob was a big, strong kid who probably could have done that! Mr. M finally got Bob to calm down and sit. He took a seat next to Bob and tried to find out what had happened, once Bob seemed able to talk.

"Bob, what happened? This was supposed to be a good experience; what went wrong?"

"Well, Mr. M, after doing this work in your class, I now know that I want to be a carpenter."

"Good. That's an important discovery. So what happened?"

"What happened is that I got down to the gym, and they had some skilled tradesmen there - an electrician and a plumber and a carpenter - and I thought ‘O.K., cool, this is just what I want.' And I went over and sat at the table with the carpenter and I told him that I wanted to be a carpenter and asked what I should do next. He said ‘Well son, first I need do know more about you. Tell me, what grade are you in?'

‘I'm a senior. I'll be graduating in June.'

‘Very good. Congratulations. And how much Math have you had?'"

Bob had been the kind of student who tried to avoid the challenging classes, the ones that might bring some more-difficult work with them. He had taken only the two easiest Math classes, the minimum required for graduation at the time.

"‘What? You didn't have any Geometry? No Advanced Algebra or Trig?'

‘What about Wood Shop? Did you take Wood Shop?'

‘Did you take any Shop classes?'

‘Did you take Drafting or Blue-Print Reading?'

‘Did you have a part-time or summer job in a cabinet shop or lumber yard or in any related work?'

‘Is your Dad a carpenter? Do you have an uncle who is a carpenter?'

‘No. No.'

"Mr. M, then he looked at me, and shook his head, and said ‘I hate to tell you this, son, but you better go talk to someone else. You're not going to be a carpenter.'"

The disappointment was written all over Bob's face. And then some of the anger returned to it. He looked at Mr. M and said "You know what makes me really mad, Mr. M? How come nobody did something like this 2 or 3 years ago when it could have made a difference?" He was talking about the career development unit.

Bob had a valid question. Today, Chippewa Valley and schools across the state are helping students to explore their interests and learn about careers. They are being helped to develop a focus and a plan for high school so that they do not miss the educational opportunities that are important to their lives. Chippewa Valley students have the opportunity to do some personal research and planning, and can avoid Bob's fate.

Bob was angry at the school. But he was also angry at someone else. Any idea who?

Himself! He was the one who chose the easy classes. (They were called "Mickey Mouse" classes back then; you call them "Blow-off" classes today.) He owned the choices; and he owns the consequences. When we have the feeling of regret, it's a pretty clear indication that we somehow defeated ourselves, that we made the wrong choices. As you progress through high school, you will have the freedom to make more and more choices. You own those choices and the results that they bring. Choose wisely and do it right. Take the cruise - the "Career Cruising" cruise. Do some research. Do some careful planning. Include your parents in the process; their support really is important. Make the most and take the most, of what Chippewa Valley has to offer you. Remember Bob, and don't go there.

Anderson Parks Board talks priorities

Sheila A. Vilvens

General improvements planned for 2016 and beyond in Anderson Township basically mirror those from past years.

The focus continues to be on: public Wi-Fi; restrooms in parks without and additional restrooms in parks with; covered dugouts; model air plane flying area; family swings; playgrounds; shade structures; shelters; trails and trail extensions; land acquisition (priority on properties adjacent to existing parks and facilities; parking lot improvements; all weather ball fields; indoor recreational space; planters and plantings; operations/maintenance support facilities.

All of the items are priorities, but not all will be completed in 2016. The priorities list were developed following a 2013 community survey conducted by the park district.

At Beech Acres Park, summer programs will continue in 2016. The RexPlex, which is owned by Beech Acres Parenting Center and used by the park district, will also continue to be part of the summer programs, at least through this summer, Executive Director Ken Kushner said.

Clear Creek Park saw many improvements in 2015 with the addition of the pickleball courts and the Little Miami Bike Trail extension. A ribbon cutting ceremony for the official opening of the trail is scheduled for May 21, Kushner said.

Over the years, Clear Creek has been on a well system for its water, he said. This summer the park will connect to public water at the driving range end.

Juilfs Park will be busy this summer with the installation of the new water play area thanks to funding from two grants received by the park district, Kushner said. This will complete the park’s playground.

Last December the Juilfs family donated another $10,000 making it possible for the park district to redo the basketball courts.

At Johnson Hills Park, nature programs will continue. The park district is working with Anderson Township on getting sidewalks to the park, Kushner said. Connectivity is important, though no work is expected to occur in 2016. Once work begins, sidewalks will most likely be installed on Bridle first.

“There’s been no engineering work on it as yet. It’s a project that’s years out,” Kushner said.

Other work to be done his summer at Johnson Hills will be similar to last year. Clearing of brush and of dead ash trees, restoration of the pond and removal of invasive species.

A playground was installed in Kellogg Park last year. Work this year will focus primarily on trail extensions.

At Laverty Park, honeysuckle removal is the focus. The installation of restrooms and parking enhancements are both priorities for this park, but both would require the purchase of an adjacent property, Kushner said. Also on the list for a future project is covered dug-outs.

A new playground structure was installed at Riverside Park last summer, replacing an old structure moved from Nagel years ago. An engineer will look at parking improvements for the future, specifically at fields No. 1 and No. 2. Other priorities for future projects at Riverside include restrooms at the all-weather fields, the installation of all-weather fields for fields 3-6 and installation of a shelter by the main parking lot.

A project happening this summer at Riverside is the painting of the fencing and backstops.

A priority for Veterans Park is covered dugouts. This park is what park board members referenced as one of the park district’s “best kept secrets.”

“There are people at Veterans Park all the time,” Park Board President Nadine Gelter said. “I don’t think people realize it’s there because there’s not a lot of sports scheduled there. It’s a sweet little park. One baseball field, two soccer fields in the fall. It’s a destination area for moms groups.”

It all starts with a high school degree or GED®

GED® Classes

Adults who have not received their high school diploma are eligible to receive an equivalent credential by passing the GED® test. The exam tests basic subjects that students are taught in high schools nationwide. Although students who take the test are not awarded a diploma, they do receive an equivalency credential certification that is accepted by employers and higher learning institutions around the country.

The GED® exam consists of five sections- language arts (writing), language arts (reading), science, math, and social studies. Each section awards a score between 200 and 800. A score of 800 puts the test taker in the top 1 percentile of all high school students. To pass the test, a student must obtain a minimum score of 410 on each section and an overall average of 450 on the entire exam.

More than 15 million people have received certification since the program began. One in every seven Americans with high school credentials received the GED® certificate, as well as one in 20 college students. Seventy percent of recipients complete at least the 10th grade before leaving school, and the same number are over the age of 19, with the average age being 24.

Students who are interested can prepare for the test with prep classes offered at public libraries, literacy centers, workforce learning centers, adult education centers, high school libraries, community colleges, universities and other volunteer organizations. Our website provides you with a list of the nearest GED® classes to your home. The GED® examination cannot be taken online and must be taken in paper and pencil format at an official testing center. We also offer a nationwide directory of GED® testing locations.

International trade marks via WIPO

You can file trade marks in over 100 countries via the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) on one application.

The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) makes getting a trade mark in several territories possible with one application and one initial payment.

WIPO offers the Madrid System, which makes it possible to file a trade mark in a number of countries around the world in one application, as a bundle of national rights.

First you will need a registered national trade mark in a territory signed up to either the Madrid Treaty or the Madrid Protocol (click here to see a list of these territories). This ‘base registration’ is what your application for multiple new territories will be based on.

It is important to note that an international registration will be linked to the fate of the base registration for a period of five years from the date of international registration – this means that if the base mark is limited or removed from its register, the entire international trade mark will suffer the same fate.

An application for an international registration is filed via the same IP office as that of the national/regional base trade mark.  When filing the international registration, you choose which countries and territories that you would like to gain protection in (“designate”) with your trade mark.

Once WIPO receives and processes the international application, they send it to each of the countries you have designated. Each has up to 18 months to conduct its own examination and raise any objections. In the event the objection is maintained, the application is refused for that country, but may proceed in the others.

How much does it cost?

The more countries you specify, the more it will cost you.

In terms of official fees, the base rate is 653 Swiss francs (around £520), or 903 Swiss francs (around £720) for a colour trade mark.

WIPO has a fees calculator, click here

You will usually need to pay an administration fee in the territory of your base mark to transmit it to WIPO. In the UK this is £40, in the EU it is EUR300

Registering through the international system is advantageous because:

Ease of administration – an application can be filed in English but can provide protection in multiple countries. By contrast, national applications usually require a trade mark attorney in each country.

Cost effective – official filing fees can be less and there can be further cost savings because there is no need to appoint local trade mark attorneys unless issues arise during the registration process.

Subsequent management – maintaining the trade mark is managed centrally at WIPO and so is administratively easier and more cost effective. It is also possible to add countries to an international registration at a later date, so your trade mark protection can expand with your business.

There are pros and cons to using the Madrid System and it is advisable to speak with a Chartered Trade Mark Attorney to ascertain the best international strategy for you.

Yard Waste

The yard waste collected by the City of Cape Girardeau is ground into mulch and made available to the public in the southeast corner of Arena Park on a first come first serve basis.

There are several different options for disposal of leaves, bush clippings and limbs.

compost bag with green sticker

City Compost Bags can be purchased at Schnucks, Food Giant, City Hall, and Public Works for leaves, grass clippings and gumball disposal.  After purchasing the city compost bags, call Public Works at 573-339-6351 to schedule a Wednesday compost pickup.  The bags come in groups of five for $6.25 and there is no charge for the pickup.  The city compost bags are the ones with the bright green stickers.

Recycling Center
Yard waste items (leaves and twigs with 1/4" diameter or smaller) can be taken to the Recycling Center at 2007 Southern Expressway for no charge.

Transfer Station
Limbs with a diameter of 1/4" of larger will need to be taken to the City Transfer Station at 2055 Corporate Circle.  Normal transfer station fees will apply for limb disposal.

Wednesday Pickups
Wednesday Special Pickups can also be scheduled for limbs and brush.

Leaf Program
Between October and March, the city provides curbside leaf pickup for Cape Girardeau citizens.  The program includes leaf pickup with an automated truck in both scheduled and unscheduled routes.  The vacuum hose on the automated truck picks up the leaves that have been raked curbside.  Leaf piles must be kept free of limbs and other debris to avoid damaging the equipment.  Detailed information on the current year's program can be found in our Leaf Season Brochure.

The City's Leaf Collection Program consists of 3 Phases:
Phase 1 runs through the month of October.  The automated leaf truck travels the entire city continuously on unscheduled routes.

Phase 2 runs from November through December.  The leaf truck runs the routes designated on the brochure map during the dates outlined for each route.  Leaves will only be collected at each residence one time during this phase.  It is important to have the leaves curbside before your route's start date so they are not missed.  Scheduled routes can be affected by weather.

Phase 3 begins at the end of phase 2 when all scheduled routes have been completed at least once and continues through the end of March.  The leaf truck will travel the city continuously on unscheduled routes during this phase and may be at each residence more than once.

Christmas Tree Disposal
From Dec. 26 through Jan. 31, real Christmas trees can be dropped off free of charge in the southeast corner of Arena Park (near where the animals are during the fair). Trees can also be picked up curbside as part of a Wednesday Special Pickup. The fee for this service is $5 per tree.

Home Team Hits the Road

by past week the Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra performed at Carnegie Hall. Tonight we leave for a 12-day tour of Spain. After a busy year of concerts, teaching and travel, do I really want to leave the sanctuary of my home and garden for an exhausting trip to a hot country with 112 youngsters?

Well, yes.

First a brief explanation of why we ended up with two tours, one to New York and the other to Spain. Already by January a three-week tour to six cities in Brazil for this June was largely in place—one of the concert venues reported that they had already sold 1000 seats for the concert! Suddenly, in March, we were forced to cancel, because of the Zika virus.

How could we find a suitable replacement for that tour, so the season could end in a manner appropriate for the extraordinary orchestra gathered this year? The answer came when I called Carnegie Hall and asked if they had any available dates in June. There were two—Monday June 6th and Tuesday June 7th. This presented us with an extraordinary opportunity to take to New York the highly successful programs the BPYO had performed in Symphony Hall in November and February. Both concerts had sold out and had been received with acclaim by critics and audiences alike. The online ArtsFuse named the November concert as the Best Orchestral Concert in Boston in 2015 and the February concert of the Eroica and Rite of Spring inspired the publisher to enthuse: It is my pleasure to report that the BPYO outing at Sanders on Sunday afternoon satisfied me more fully than any other orchestral concert I have heard all season.” Performing these programs in Carnegie Hall would make a perfect cap on a glorious season and would cost no more than the $400k budgeted for the trip to Brazil. I asked the Carnegie Hall booking office to pencil us in for both nights.

Did we achieve what we set out in two sold-out concerts there? In most respects, absolutely. Everyone had a fantastic time and the performances were first-class. In the New York Times, James Oestreich wrote, “The performances were generally excellent, and would have been so even if this had been an adult professional ensemble…he can achieve often glowing results from young musicians with, yes, shining eyes.

That is no meager compliment. Professional orchestras have very high standards these days, and for an orchestra of musicians 12 to 21 to match that level in such repertoire, on consecutive nights, is an extraordinary achievement.

In an hour we leave for Spain. How different it will be from the pressured excursion to New York! We will give fine concerts, I am sure, and there may be the glowing review in a Spanish newspaper. But takes a backseat to the purpose of this tour: to deepen the relationships among the players in the orchestra, to explore Spanish sights, sounds, and people, and to bring great music and great spirit to the people of Spain.

As the hour of departure nears, I am excited by the prospect of spending the next 12 days with some of the finest young people I have known, performing great works we play with ease and joy, absorbing new experiences, and sharing what we have learned about living in possibility with people from another culture. Relationships will flourish, and everyone will have a magnificent experience, and then, truly, we will be surrounded by shining eyes.

Meet the Cast of The Winter's Tale! Spotlight on Connor Scott (Antigonus/Time)

Connor Scott takes on a pair of the more intense roles in The Winter's Tale. Without too many spoilers...Antigonus is the one who has to exit pursued by a bear (so you can imagine how that ends for him). And Time is a concept personified at the start of the second act.

Connor also recently participated in Shakes Day, celebrating Shakespeare's birthday with Classics on the Rocks.

Read on and get to know this wonderful new addition to our family! We think he might be from somewhere in Wisconsin but it's just an educated guess.

What's your favorite thing about your hometown?

Beer. And cheese.

What does your ideal Saturday look like?

Time outside, be it hiking, biking, kayaking, a good book to read, and a cookout at sundown.

What's your favorite role you've played, Shakespeare or otherwise?

Rudi the Carpenter- Cardenio by Chuck Mee.

What excites you about The Winter's Tale?

There's a little bit of everything in it; drama, suspicion, pastoral humor and clowning. It's great fun, it's a great challenge!

Featuring a mad king, an exit pursued by a bear, and three of Shakespeare's strongest female characters, The Winter's Tale is a lesser-known, lesser-told story that gives us both tragedy and comedy, love and loss, winter and spring.

The Winter's Tale performs July 20, 21, 27, 28 at 7pm and July 29 at 5pm at the Alchemical Theatre Laboratory. Tickets may be purchased in advance here.

About Classics on the Rocks:

Shakespeare doesn't have to be complicated and it's our mission at Classics on the Rocks to make classical theatre accessible, exciting, palatable, and fun for everyone - whether you're brand new to Shakespeare or have read the canon cover to cover.

At Classics on the Rocks, we believe that just as whiskey doesn't need anything more than rocks to tame it's bite. Shakespeare doesn't need fancy concepts, modernizations, frilly costumes, or big sets to make it relatable. All you need are talented actors who trust the text and tell the story. It's classics served simply on the rocks.

Process Variation

A robot. Maybe not the type that will transform your business though.

The year is 2020, and things are a little different now, especially when it comes to corporate operations and the presence of people in offices; together.

Remember that? And everything that came with it…

Tiredness, distractions, and many other negative human factors were associated with ‘office’ life. And whilst it’s is true that many staff and employers are now reporting higher productivity and better wellbeing than those who now don’t have to negotiate an early morning commute in the dark and a pre-9am chat with Ian about the latest episode of ‘Strictly’  (agreeably, both draining things to deal with before anyone has even considered a day’s work); even with a generally fresher workforce, managers and directors are having to accept two things – humans are still, well, human, and – there is a need to incorporate technology more so now than ever.

In the years running up to this one, especially more recent ones, technology was advancing rapidly. Sure, we were ‘digitally transforming’, but it really was not until this year that we embraced it with such gusto; albeit because we had to. Nevertheless, it has been a learning curve, and some of us are being astounded by the potential of the tech available to us.

Advanced tech can and is changing how we work, and used properly, for the better. We live in a world where we can embrace tech’s power to carry out repetitive work and organise us, while human thinking, creativity, and nature can be left to thrive.

Let’s take a look at one option favoured by organisations choosing to combine human and technology to optimise their new workplace…

What is RPA?

Robotic Process Automation is software that mimics human actions. RPA should not be confused with AI (Artificial Intelligence) which is designed to display its own intelligence.

Now, let’s not get completely carried away… RPA is only designed to mimic the actions of a human interacting with digital systems; however, the resolutions this presents are still exciting in this modern world of 2020, and beyond.

Where and when to embrace RPA

Consider Data Entry. For a human, this can be tiresome. Mistakes can (and usually will) be made, not to mention a human will need management, holidays, and other such things but a robot? Not so much.

Remember though, RPA is not AI. To confirm, it is designed to carry out repetitive processes (ideally optimised ones) created by humans, not to think in itself.

With that in mind, modern organisations are now considering a hybrid of human and robotic input to optimise their processes and maximise their minds.

How to install RPA successfully

As exciting as the prospect of a human/robot remote/in-person eutopia is, the road to it will need to be paved well, as a robot is only as good as what it is programmed to do. There is significant risk to an RPA implementation if the current manual process being replaced is not fully understood.

This means that even now when we are already in the ‘new normal’, managers and directors will need to factor in time to monitor our revised ways of working, and certainly ahead of passing any repetitive processes to an RPA system.

Note: While a workforce is working separately, individual ways of working will be being developed. The best workarounds may not be known by all people; equally, that is true of the worst. It is now a matter of understanding and training. If you want to ‘roboticise’ a process, you’ll need to fully understand the ‘as-is’ way of working then optimise it before it is programmed.

Remember, an automated bad process is still a bad process!

Furthermore, by roboticising an element of a process, you need to be very clear on the downstream impacts. In other words, there is little point in increasing throughput via RPA in an upstream process if it only creates bottlenecks further down the line.

So, what’s the solution?

Before handing any part of your new process to a robot, ensure it is fully understood, optimised, and documented. Be aware of where issues are arising and also have the potential to, and ensure all of this is accessible and changeable as your organisation naturally evolves.

Build Your Own Burger (Market Segment)

Build Your Own Burger (Market Segment)

Purchasing 3rd party data is like assembling your perfect burger…or market segment. Only, it has to be the most satisfyingly gut-busting, best-dressed, seared to a sizzle-crisp market segment that you will ever take a bite out of. If I could use an emoji in this post, it would be drooling.

Put your finger on the pulse of the nation with Clickagy’s farm-fresh 3rd party data and be confident that your campaign will reach your intended audience. Clickagy offers pre-made and custom market segments made to order:

1. Decide what to eat:
By carefully subdivide your target market into segments that will best fit the product or service you are marketing instead of targeting all of the segments possible. With that in mind, what do you want your burger to ultimately taste like? A little spicy chipotle or a tad sweeter with grilled pineapple? How about adding a Southwest theme with perfectly crisp and salty hickory-smoked bacon topped with a homemade bacon aioli? Whatever your chosen medley of tastes may be, you definitely want to avoid the flavor of lighter fluid (black box segments) — trust me on this one.

What does your campaign need?

– Big or small audiences: Whether it be a regular-size burger or a slider version, your market segment will be packed with flavor. Always look at the monetary potential of a segment rather than the number of people in a segment. Take advantage of the expansive reach at your fingertips and deliver your marketing message to your desired audience.

– Granularity or scale: 80/20 ground beef is the perfect blend that results in a moist, juicy burger. We avoid the pre-packaged frozen hamburger altogether and focus on quality data. The more granulated a segment is, the deeper the details go. The details are important, and we provide them at scale.

– Custom or ready-made: From the classic, tried-and-true, all-American garnishes to ones that borrow flavors from popular international cuisines, you can customize your burger to your liking. Or, order a pre-crafted burger that’s never been frozen from a professional. Customize your burger toppings to suit your taste preferences. Our granularity allows you to create custom segments that meet the needs of each one of your campaigns.

2. Make the burger using Audience Lab:
So, you’ve chosen to make a Mexican cheeseburger that is going to hit your taste buds in the most mouthwatering way. To ensure that your burger has that scrumptious oomph to it, you’d handcraft the patties, adding a spicy homemade salsa, before throwing them onto a grill. Then, top it off by heading to the garden for farm-fresh ingredients to make a fresh batch of guacamole. It’s so handcrafted, it’s like a master chef made it.

Our Clickagy segments are created with similar care and intentionality. Since Clickagy is a farm-to-table data company, we prepare everything from scratch. Our AI NLP processor browses web pages for keywords, ranking them according to relevance. With accuracy and scale, Clickagy can reach both broad populations and controlled audiences with specific interests, all in real-time.

4. Take a bite:
Now, you have the most delectable burger sitting in front of you, taunting you to take that first bite…but wait! Get into your burger stance and grab some napkins before biting in! All there is to do now is savor your hard work and observe as those around you devour the burgers that you’ve assembled. Connect with those most interested in what you have to offer by using precise segments based on user behavior. Made-to-order segments such as this will never leave you wanting for another data source again because our data will provide a gratifying ROI.

This is far from an ordinary burger. One bite and you’ll wonder where this has been all your life. We have the BEST audience formulas here at Clickagy. Our taxonomy is our menu, and you’re up to order! So? What’s it gonna be?

Bon appétit!

Home    Museum 2014 Update    Neon Blue Fiction    The Haunted Village    Deep Outside SFFH    Far Sector SFFH    About (Old)    Clocktower Fiction    Contact

Museum (2014 Update)

Recognition by 2014. Courtesy Mike Ashley et al., our magazine has become listed in the online SF-Encyclopedia with at least one entry: Deep Outside SFFH later Far Sector SFFH 1998-2007. There is also a stub pointing to this link from Outside: Speculative & Dark Fiction, our initial publication name on 15 April 1998 before threats of a law suit from a backpacking magazine. Brian and I then came up with the new name Deep Outside as a compromise. We soon added SFFH for SEO and as a concept sharpener.

In the course of our ten year run, we* published many talented newcomers, a few of whom went on to Nebula, Hugo, and other major awards or nominations. We also published at least one Nebula Award recipient (the late Pat York), and at least two SFWA officers including Linda Dunna and Dr. Andrew Burt. With the folding of Ellen Datlow's Event Horizon in the fall of 1998, we became the world's oldest web-only magazine without print antecedents, paying SFWA professional rates and following all their rules for a professional organization, until we ended our run in early 2007. By *we, I include such dedicated staffers as A. L. Sirois, Dennis Latham, John K. Muir, and Shaun Farrell. Brian (and Gwen Callahan, who had helped read submissions) left me as sole proprietor in 2001, at which point I kept the magazine but changed its name to Far Sector SFFH (which happened to be a domain name I had recently acquired and wasn't sure what to do with, though I really liked it and still do). We had changed Clocktower Fiction to Clocktower Books, and I became sole proprietor of the publishing house as well (Clocktower Books ISBN prefix 0-7433).

Mike Ashley, historian of 20th Century SFFH Magazines. I have been in touch with Mike Ashley (prominent U.K. anthologist and researcher) over the past few years. He is, among other things, the editor of many Mammoth anthologies. Mike's impressive projects include a signature history of 20th Century SFFH magazines in four volumes, his Story of the Science Fiction Magazines series. Mike originally sought me out a few years ago as he was beginning to plan the fourth and last volume, yet to be released from University of Liverpool Press at this writing (11 July 2014). He is an astute and detailed researcher, and had already done his homework well. He had found us (Deep Outside SFFH, Far Sector SFFH, Clocktower Fiction) on The Wayback Machine among other references (The SF Magazine in Canada; John Labovitz' list from the 1990s; and more). Recently, we pieced together, as best we could from my old notes and folders, a history of this magazine (1998-2007). I will add more notes to this update, but it appears that we are finally going to be on the historical map. Presumably, that means we can soon have a Wikipedia page as well, which should open up a link section to Clocktower Books as well. This is just one of several positive things that are happening this year to put Clocktower Books better on the map. We became a recognized publisher of International Thriller Writers (ITW) in 2009. Mike Ashley's will undoubtedly be the final, comprehensive, and definitive history of SFFH magazines in the 20th Century, and our magazine helps end the final chapters in that saga as the Internet age started breaking open in the late 1990s. More info to follow soon.—JTC

Museum (Original 2010 Info Below)

Side Notes

John T. Cullen has been online since early 1996, joining the early Web pioneers in publishing exciting stories in several fields. On these pages, in March 2010, we begin to gather as much of the old work that has not been lost by time, computer crashes, upgrades, fatigue, and neglect over the years.

Past web endeavors with founding years (as best able to recollect) include Neon Blue Fiction (1996), The Haunted Village (1996), Clocktower Fiction (1997), SharpWriter.Com, Clocktower Books (1998).

As to the web magazine, it began as Outside: Speculative & Dark Fiction (April 15, 1998), quickly morphed to Deep Outside SFFH (late 1998 to late 2001), and finally Far Sector SFFH (late 2001 to January 2007). Most of the art work on the first two versions was done by Brian Callahan (, who was my business partner until his departure for other green pastures in 2001. After that, much artwork came from A. L. Sirois and some from myself.

Brief Aside by JTC. Reality, technology, truth, and progress are sending the New York City ('Big Six') publishing anomaly's self-ordained and mercenary gatekeepers packing. Early on, many of us saw that the Internet was a unique new publishing opportunity. This is not because we are unintelligent, or amateurs, or heretics, or the unclean whose trivial and ridiculous scribblings have not been blessed by the high priests and their acolytes in akad¯me, and so forth. Quite the opposite will eventually dawn on even the dimmest of bulbs. Many of us have multiple degrees, often quite relevant. My three are a BA in English (Univ of Connecticut), a BBA in Computer Information Systems (National University), and an MS in Business Administration (Boston University). I am a professionally trained editor, journalist, author, and scholarly researcher. Many of us have years of professional experience in writing, editing, journalism, book editing, and various other disciplines. In other words, some of us, at least, bring the highest professional standards to the work we create online. Many of us are far better educated and knowledgeable than many of the gatekeepers of cheap, sentimental trash that New York typically purveys. How many of their books of the last 40 years, since the advent of shopping malls and big box stores, will survive to still be read in the classrooms of 2212 or 2412? Given that they have literally owned the entire industry, vertically and horizontally, we may expect that a few literary works got through the censorship and gatekeeping—but not enough to justify their self-adulation.

I remember seeing a survey in The Los Angeles Times (remember them?) around the early 2000s. Most of the respondents (authors, editors, etc in the print industry) tended to think the Internet and digital publishing had no future. One or two still vocally railed against the idea that one would sell print books on line through retailers like Amazon. Stories of such shortsightedness and lack of vision abound. They are not worth mentioning in detail, because they are all dreck that has already run over by the wheels of progress. You can imagine similar outrage among the monks of the scriptorium when Gutenberg used moveable type to grind out Bibles. Does anyone remember the loathing among publishers (which lasted for decades, and still echoes even today) when Betty and Ian Ballantyne revived the Liberty Book (softcover, in WW2 rationing) and created the paperback in the late 1940s—which was anathema to the shamans and their acolytes of the publishers in boards. Ironically, they who speak of 'hardcovers' have not produced a true hardcover in over half a century. A real book between boards, hand-stitched in an antique wooden machine, entirely by hand, has not been manufactured in popular quantities in nearly a century by now. For all the drama and the posing, modern 'hardcovers' are really nothing more than paperbacks glued together between cardstock or cardboard. In fact, even the 'trade paperback' is really no more than a cardback that has come unglued.

In the long term, reality and the free market place will determine the outcome of the current death and birth struggles. Only a few years ago, in a survey of publishing and writing professionals by The Los Angeles Times (remember them?), there were still several people who loathed and condemned the new practice of selling print works online via and other retail sites. There remains to this day a vast horde of [censored] who keep insisting that everything online should be free, including tens of thousands of hours of hard work and sacrifice by dedicated and talented writers and musicians. If many of these artists online do not meet the standards of their'onors, the [censored], then we may well recall that most of the print industry's output ends up being remaindered for failure to sell. But again, discussions like this are pointless.

What is Traditional Publishing? In 2011, I did some studies for an online publication. I found several truths. First, most great authors (meaning that their work transcends their time and culture, and is read generations later by an avid public) had to self-publish because of the mediocrity and myopia of their era's gatekeepers. This includes writers like Edgar Allan Poe, Walt Whitman (who was a trained typesetter and printer), Virginia Wolfe (who owned her own press), D. H. Lawrence, James Joyce, Erma Rombauer, Zane Grey, Beatrix Potter, Anais Nin, Stephen Crane, and entirely too many great authors to name. They fill up much of the syllabus of the typical literature department whose hierophants despise 'vanity' publishers. If only they had a clue. Secondly, I could plainly see that the Big Six (or is it Five by now, or Four, as they collapse one by one?) is not the so-called 'traditional publishing' of which people so vacantly-eyed speak. The real traditional publishing, in the United States of John Peter Zenger, press freedom, and the First Amendment, consists of over 40,000 small press publishers who have survived the now moribund big-box, shopping mall industry of the New York City cartel. But make no mistake—I don't loathe them, because I am a business person as they are. I just hope to do it smarter and better. Time will tell. With their unholy monopoly broken by the new freedoms of digital publishing, anyone has a fair shot now. With the gatekeepers sent packing, the world's James Joyces and Walt Whitmans, its Virginia Wolfes and Beatrix Potters, are no longer at the whimsy of distant strangers half as smart and not a tenth as talented. That's as it should be—a level playing field. It's all anyone can or should ask for.

Ultimately, the partisanship we have seen (print versus digital, mall stores versus online retail sites) amounts to nothing more than hollow posing by those who have a vested interest in keeping old economies alive. It's like the oil billionaires who have long stopped the world from progressing to clean energy. Ultimately, speaking of oil and cars, it's not about the destination or the vehicle, but about the journey. It's not about whether it is 'okay' to read a digital book. One elderly editor I once called at a New York house for information on pricing, around 1998 or so, commented about e-books, as if she were speaking of child molesters or lepers, in a voice dripping with disdain and loathing—"I would *never* read one of those." She is probably now working as a barrista, and glad to have any kind of job. Time and progress move on, leaving their tire tracks on those who didn't have the vision to get on board. Soon enough, nobody will question whether it is moral or correct or smart to read a digital text. I remember when the Library of Congress refused to allow me to register a copyright because the book I had electronically published with Nuvomedia around 1998 'wasn't really a book,' but I could register the manuscript as 'unpublished.' Who really has time for this? Write a good book, publish a viable package, and find out whether readers will come. Ironically, that is all the New York industry ever did, and it was the right thing to do—except they got way too big for their britches. Pride goeth before a fall.

The free market will prevail, as it always does. It's all about the end user, the reader in this case. Give them a good tool and a decent story, and they'll turn the page on this entire industry, faster than any so-called gate keepers can keep up with. In the end, the only thing we artists and intellectuals can control is how well we do our work, and how lovingly we apply ourselves to it. Very few of us will be remembered, print or digital, but that cannot ultimately be what matters. The age-old joys of story telling, and story hearing or reading, remain as fresh as they were around the Paleolithic campfire.

First E-Books Ever Published Online

We Made History Clocktower Books, the world's second-oldest e-book publisher (as of 2013+; third in 1996) pioneered in a number of areas during the halcyon, virginal genesis days of the World Wide Web as a publishing medium. When you buy an e-book (including our own titles) from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, iPad, or any other retailer, you are buying a product whose concept we pioneered in our early incarnation as Clocktower Fiction in 1996. That, along with other pioneering firsts by us, makes this website and publishing house a historically important landmark. We are proud of this heritage, and happy to share these true facts with a world that all too often moves on and leaves its history in the dust. Note: We only obtained a real domain name by about 1998--see Wayback Machine and other historical resources.

To be absolutely clear: At the moment in 1996 when we went online with our digital publishing project, digital publishing of full, proprietary books had not advanced beyond physical media (CD-ROM). One or two publishers offered portable media for sale by physical home delivery, and Amazon was just rocking New York City's boat by offering physical books that could be ordered for home delivery from Amazon's website. There may have been some public domain texts available. Pioneering short story publishers were already active—e.g., John T. Cullen's first third-party-'published' story was in Andy McCann's Planet Magazine, which existed already online since about 1993. However, no book author or publisher had ever, before us, published entire proprietary (intellectual property, registered with the U.S. Library of Congress) books online for digital download. We also pioneered, among other innovations, the concept of weekly serial chapters online. Note: Since both Brian Callahan and I, among our various degrees, have B.A.s in English or Literature, we were quite aware that Charles Dickens, for example, got his career start during the early 1800s publishing in weekly serials (magazines; journals). Interesting how history appears to sometimes repeat itself.

A Brief Clocktower Books Chronology

1995 While working at a San Diego software firm, a group of us were amazed one day to download a single image (of one page from an ancient Byzantine codex) on our Mozilla browser, which took about an hour or more. Memory is a bit hazy by now, but I'll try to retell the story sequentially as best possible.

1996 In April 1996, Brian Callahan and I created our first website (Neon Blue Fiction), which consisted of a splash page and a content page, without a single image at first. This was our venue to publish mystery and suspense thrillers. Initially, all we had were a number of short stories and one novel—the eponymous Neon Blue. We added an image of the NBF logo (TBD), and later in 1997, Brian uploaded the magnificent website now in the Clocktower Books museum.

1996 A few weeks later, on July 5, 1996, Brian Callahan and I added our second website (The Hau

Returning from the EC2i Business Mission

Following three successful EC2i missions in China and the United States since 2018, the EC2i project embarked on the second US Bussiness Mission 16th - 20th of September 2019 in New York and Boston in the United States. The successfull mission was a collaboration with Smart City tech (SCT), Bridge Innovation Partners (BIP), World Climate Limited (WCL) and NECEC in order to identify and create opportunities for European SMEs within the Cleantech and SmartCity sectors. The Mission offered the opportunity to European SMEs to meet potential US partners through matchmaking sessions. After returning back home, the European SMEs are now in the important process of following up on contacts and possibilities.

American coach makes his mark by winning Austrian title

National Sports

FILE – In this file photo dated Wednesday, Nov. 27, 2019, Salzburg soccer coach Jesse Marsch stands on the sidelines during a Champions League group E soccer match against Genk at the KRC Genk Arena in Genk, Belgium. Marsch led Salzburg to this season’s Austrian league title, the most significant trophy won by an American coach in Europe, and says he wanted “to see if my idea of leadership could thrive in this competitive setting,” the Wisconsin native told The Associated Press Friday July 3, 2020. (AP Photo/Francisco Seco, FILE)

DÜSSELDORF, Germany (AP) — Jesse Marsch came to Europe to make a name both for himself and for every other American soccer coach.

He managed that in a big way.

Marsch led Salzburg to this season’s Austrian league title, the most significant trophy won by an American coach in Europe.

“My main emphasis in coming to Europe — of course, ambition was a part of it — but it was more to see if my idea of leadership could thrive in this competitive setting of our sport,” the Wisconsin native told The Associated Press. “And, you know, I mean, it’s very sink or swim in Europe.”

In his first season as coach of Salzburg, Marsch had little trouble staying afloat despite a raft of problems. He had to contend with both the coronavirus shutdown and a mid-season rebuild after the club sold Erling Haaland to Borussia Dortmund and Takumi Minamino to Liverpool.

Marsch also became the first American to coach a team in the group stage of the Champions League, and he drew plenty of praise for his team’s all-action style in European soccer’s biggest club competition.

Against Liverpool in October, Salzburg bounced back from a 3-0 hole in a battling 4-3 loss at Anfield. Footage of his halftime talk was widely shared on social media. In a mix of German and English, laced with expletives, he urged the players not to show Liverpool too much respect.

“In some ways, Liverpool was the worst possible draw we could have, not just because of their quality, but because they play similarly to us,” said Marsch, who made two appearances with the U.S. national team as a midfielder in the 2000s.

“We could surprise them maybe by the quality that we had, but not really surprise them by the way we play or the speed at which we play or the intensity at which we play, because they do the same, but probably better. But at the same time, it was an incredible strategic challenge to to match up against such a great team.”

Salzburg’s game is built around high-intensity pressing, just like Liverpool. And the results are rarely dull — since June 7, Salzburg has won games 6-0, 5-1, 7-2 and 5-2.

Quite the statement, especially coming after an 11-week break in which Salzburg’s players had to stay match-ready with a mix of home fitness exercises and socially distanced training sessions.

Marsch also took a keen interest in his players’ personal lives and mental well-being.

“I made a lot of phone calls. They were more just about seeing how guys are doing, making sure their families were safe, making sure they were doing OK and cooking and everything that they had to do,” he said. “And I think it actually brought the group together and made us stronger.”

The virus also cost league rival LASK Linz some points — the leaders at the time of the suspension were deducted points for holding training sessions in violation of league rules.

But Salzburg’s nine-game unbeaten run since the restart negated any advantage that would have given them.

“Our plan was to win the league as if LASK had the points,” Marsch said. “So we wanted to be emphatic.”

Other American coaches have led bigger teams, including Bob Bradley at English club Swansea and naturalized citizen Jürgen Klinsmann at Hertha Berlin. Neither won a title. American coach Pellegrino Matarazzo, however, led Stuttgart to promotion in Germany this season.

Marsch is a strong believer in nurturing leadership from within his squad, even with a young team. Salzburg relies on developing up-and-coming talent to make Marsch’s tactics work, and to fund the club with player sales.

“To play our kind of football we need young players. We need players that are fast and powerful and can play game in and game out,” he said. “We actually need young players here to subsidize our financial situation and to play our football.”

With backing from energy drink company Red Bull, Salzburg is a financial giant in the Austrian league, where it had already won six straight titles before Marsch took over for the 2019-20 season.

In the Champions League, it’s an underdog. That means preparing drastically different tactics.

“It’s crazy, right? It’s like the levels are so different and the demands are so different that sometimes it feels like it’s almost preparing two different kinds of settings or sports,” Marsch said.

Red Bull’s network of clubs around the world has developed young players like Haaland and Timo Werner, but it’s also developed Marsch as a coach. When he joined the New York Red Bulls in MLS in 2015, his only head coaching experience was a one-year stint at the Montreal Impact three years before.

Marsch spent three years in New York, leaving with the most wins of any coach in franchise history, to take an assistant coach role at Red Bull’s German club, Leipzig. A year later, he took over at Salzburg.

After winning the Austrian title, Marsch says he wants to stay “in the moment,” rather than making longer-term plans. Another European campaign starts in the fall, after all.
