My first published photographs were taken to illustrate my work as a newspaper reporter and freelance writer. Later, as I followed a career path that led to ordained ministry in the Episcopal Church, photography became a form of spiritual discipline through which I seek to notice the presence that lies shimmering beneath every surface. I’m especially interested in the way light can be a metaphor for presence, and in particular in the way it breaks in and illuminates—light, like grace, changes everything. Lately in my photography I’ve been exploring how people interact with others around them, each encounter consciously or unconsciously reflecting the character of their connection to a greater whole.

Scholar Success Story: IIMA Student Kavneet Singh’s Mantra to Turn Challenges into Opportunities

As Chris Grosser has said, “Opportunities don’t happen. You create them.” If you want to achieve something, do not wait for things to be aligned, perform your task/duty for things to fall in your path. Take the story of Kavneet Singh from Ludhiana as an example who despite having a regular job at hand, worked hard to secure a place for himself in the prestigious corridors of IIM Ahmedabad. His energy and ambition helped him earn Capital First Scholarship 2018-20 which further boosted his career dreams.

Read Kavneet’s story to celebrate his success and get inspired by his determination to accomplish career goals. Excerpts from his interview with Buddy4Study:

Buddy4Study: Tell us about your academic and professional background before joining this management programme.

Kavneet: I passed class 10 and 12 from CBSE with CGPA 9.6 and 91% marks, respectively. I pursued my graduation in Mechanical Engineering from Punjab Technical University with 76.02% marks. After graduating, I joined Thermax Limited where I worked for about 7 months.

Buddy4Study: What drove you towards the pursuit of an MBA course?

Kavneet: After graduation, I started working in a company. It wasn’t long before I realised the importance of management in an organisation. Experience taught me that good management can bring success even when the odds are not in one’s favour. This strengthened my inclination towards management and hence, I finally decided to go ahead with the preparation for MBA entrance and crack CAT (Common Admission Test) in order to pursue my dream of studying an MBA course from one of the most prestigious institutions.

Buddy4Study: What were the key challenges you faced while preparing for your MBA admissions?

Kavneet: Since I was working while preparing for MBA admissions, it was really a huge challenge to manage my time so that my MBA preparation and work do not clash with each other. The MBA preparation in itself was the first MBA lesson. Other than that, occasional low mock scores, inability to grasp a few concepts, etc., were some of the problems I faced during the preparation phase. But, what matters the most is to never lose hope and keep moving forward with it.

Buddy4Study: What has been your source of inspiration?

Kavneet: I realised pretty early that to fulfill the dream of being in the top managerial position of an organisation, education is the only way to expedite the process. Seeing efficient young managers in my previous workplace really inspired me to focus on my dreams.

Buddy4Study: Despite the financial constraints, you decided to pursue an MBA course. How did your parents react when you told them about your ambitions?

Kavneet: I cannot thank my parents enough that they never asked me to drop the idea of pursuing an MBA despite financial constraint. My father wanted me to pursue whatever I wanted. Both my parents gave me their complete support. They told me to just focus on getting into a good institution without worrying for the money. It will be managed one way or the other.

Buddy4Study: How did you come to know about the Capital First Scholarship? What was the process you followed to avail the scholarship?

Kavneet: I came to know about Capital First Scholarship from a mail sent out by the General Secretary of IIMA. The procedure to apply for the scholarship was really simple. I followed the link mentioned in the mail and there was an entire guideline on how to fill in the information. After filling in the information, I submitted the form. Further rounds included some more information and a telephonic interview. The process was really smooth and not at all time consuming, considering time is a luxury at a B-school.

Buddy4Study: You grabbed a seat in IIM Ahmedabad. Which other B-schools did you qualify for?

Kavneet: I also qualified for IIM Calcutta, IIM Lucknow, IIM Kozhikode, IIM Indore, MDI Gurgaon.

Buddy4Study: What goals have you set for yourself in the future?

Kavneet: For now, my goal is to do my best at IIM Ahmedabad and learn as much as possible not only from the taught subjects and professors but also from my peers. In future, I want to focus on getting the best out of my internship experience. I also want to try out the classroom concepts in real life. Post that, I will focus on getting into a reputed organisation where I can continue to learn from the best business minds.

Buddy4Study: What advice would you give to the young ones who face various challenges towards pursuing higher education?

Kavneet: My advice to all would be – it is very easy to lose hope in the process of going ahead with the MBA preparation, it’s easy to lower your target from a top tier institute to a lower tier institute, and it’s easy to focus on all the things wrong with your profile or with your scores. All I can say from my personal experience is that don’t let these things get to you. Be honest with yourself. Just focus, work hard and believe in yourself! And trust me, you will surprise yourself as I did!

Arabic Coffee vs Robusta Coffee - The Differences

For most coffee drinkers, the origin or type of coffee that they’re drinking might not be given much consideration. The majority of coffee blends come from the Arabica coffee bean, which is a milder tasting bean with a caffeine content that is suitable for occasional coffee drinkers to frequent coffee drinkers.

However, there is another type of coffee bean known as the Robusta bean that has some benefits over its Arabica counterpart, and that’s why it’s included in my exfoliating Coffee Body Scrub.

  • Robusta coffee has a more bitter and burnt taste than Arabica coffee, which is why it is less popular for cafe coffee blends. Some blends will include a small percentage of Robusta beans for a stronger taste.
  • One of the reasons that Robusta beans have a stronger taste, is that they have a higher caffeine content than Arabica beans. Robusta coffee has almost double the percentage of caffeine than Arabica coffee, and while that’s not so good for taste it is very good for targeting skin conditions and signs of ageing.
  • Robusta beans also contain almost double the Chlorogenic Acid (CGA) content than Arabica beans, which is a powerful antioxidant and something that you definitely want included as part of your skincare regime. It’s also found in common foods like eggplant, peaches and prunes.
  • When Robusta coffee is used as part of an exfoliant, it can help to remove bacteria on the skin and increase blood flow circulation, which can reduce the appearance of stretch marks, signs of ageing and skin conditions. Buddy Scrub is one of the few coffee scrubs on the market to be using Robusta coffee grounds.

So why not harness the powerful properties of Robusta coffee with my all natural, cruelty free and vegan friendly Coffee Body Scrub!

Why Should You Put Oil On Your Skin?

For those of you trying to avoid oily skin and reduce the likelihood of getting oily clogged up pores, you might be wondering why I insist that you rub my oily goodness all over your body. Well, let me give you the information about my natural plant based oils that you might not be aware of, and you too will see that adding oil to your skincare regime is the way to go.

Coconut Oil

Coconut Oil hydrates your skin which can help to keep your skin cell connection strong and aim to reduce the appearance of wrinkles or sagging. Coconut oil will naturally clear away any dirt, grime, or dead skin cells. It also assists in soothing your skin irritations, prolonging your tan and reducing the signs of ageing. Features in: all of my body scrubs!

Grapeseed Oil

Grape seed oil provides a great source of Vitamin E which is important for keeping your skin well moisturised. Grape seed oil also has some antiseptic qualities which can help to reduce the likelihood of developing skin blemishes. Features in: all of my body scrubs!

Jojoba Oil

Jojoba oil is one of the oils most closely matched to the natural oil in the skin. Your skin produces wax esters which keep the skin hydrated and these wax esters diminish as you age. Jojoba oil produces these wax esters naturally and therefore gives your skin the much needed hydration that reduces with ageing. Basically, this means your skin will love absorbing this oil and it will help to restore the natural oil balance of your skin. Jojoba oil also contains essential vitamins A, D and E, as well as Omega 6 and 9 fatty acids. Features in: my Green Tea Body Scrub and Activated Charcoal Body Scrub.

Sweet Almond Oil

Sweet Almond Oil is a light oil that absorbs into the skin well. It is naturally high in Vitamin E, making it a great oil for use on your skin. As it absorbs into the skin it can help to dislodge oil and dirt, making it useful for reducing the likelihood of developing acne and skin blemishes. Features in: my Raw Cacao Body Scrub.

Vitamin E Oil

Vitamin E is a strong antioxidant that helps to target the signs of ageing. Vitamin E does this by smoothing skin and reducing the signs of wrinkles, hydrating skin to improve skin elasticity and rejuvenates dry skin. Features in: all of my body scrubs!

Essential Oils

Essential oils are not actually oils in the traditional sense. Essential oils are a natural oil that is extracted from plant or fruit sources and are 100% natural. Often fruit peels are cold pressed for their oil content, such as the orange essential oil in my Raw Cacao Body Scrub or the lime essential oil in my Green Tea Body Scrub. Other essential oils can be pressed from plant leaves, seeds or flowers, such as the peppermint essential oil in my Activated Charcoal Body Scrub. It often takes a large number of plant or fruit material to make one bottle of essential oil and the nutrients that are captured in the oil make them great for their skin benefits and aromatherapy properties.

8 Health and Skin Benefits of Green Tea Matcha

Green tea has been around for many many years, however more recently it has come to the forefront as a staple ingredient in food, beverages and skincare. Many of your much loved products are turning green and for good reason, as green tea has many health benefits that make it a superfood for your body and skin.

  1. Matcha is rich in chlorophyll which is a natural detoxifier and helps to remove toxins from your skin and body.
  2. Matcha contains high levels of catechins, which are a potent antioxidant and help to fight the processes that cause free radicals and prevent poor health.
  3. Matcha helps to absorb and prevent excess oil and sebum on your skin, which can help to reduce the appearance of acne and blackheads.
  4. Matcha naturally produces energising properties, which helps to stimulate skin cells and blood flow to help reduce the effects of ageing.
  5. Matcha contains more antioxidants than dark chocolate, spinach and fruits like acai combined.
  6. Matcha contains a number of important nutrients, including iron, protein, potassium, calcium and vitamin C.
  7. Matcha contains L-Theanine, an amino acid that supports relaxed and smooth skin.
  8. Matcha contains anti-inflammatory properties to help reduce the appearance of skin conditions and support radiant skin.

Now that you know some of the great benefits of green tea matcha powder, you can see why it’s included in my Green Tea Body Scrub. This scrub gently exfoliates your skin with sugar and pure sea salt, nurtures your skin with green tea powder and moisturises with plant based oils.

The benefits of Jojoba Oil

You may have heard the name Jojoba Oil floating around in skincare products recently and wondered what all the hype is about, or even what it actually is.

Jojoba oil is actually a 100% natural wax ester and is cold pressed from the seeds of the Jojoba plant. Jojoba oil has a fine texture allowing it to be easily absorbed into the skin and suitable for all skin types. Jojoba oil is the only known oil like substance that contains wax esters that are similar to those produced by the skins natural sebum. As the skin often recognises Jojoba oil as its own oil, it is deeply absorbed into the surface of the skin, which makes it great for replenishing dry skin, but also for balancing oily skin. As Jojoba oil is so closely matched to the skin’s natural oil, it is quickly absorbed, helps to hold moisture in the skin and does not leave a filmy residue on the skin.

Jojoba oil is also rich in skin loving nutrients. The oil is high in Vitamin E which supports skin elasticity and helps to reduce the appearance of ageing. Jojoba oil also contains anti-inflammatory properties which help to relieve the likelihood of developing acne or bacterial skin conditions. It may seem counterproductive to add oil to your skin to reduce oiliness, however by using Jojoba oil your body is encouraged to reduce or balance its natural oil production.

My all natural Green Tea Body Scrub and new Activated Charcoal Scrub include Jojoba oil for its many skin benefits. You can view these scrubs and their additional benefits here and organise a scrub date in no time.

Buffalo Bills live training camp update, Day 16: Wednesday, August 15

New, comments

The last day of Bills practice in Rochester.

It’s Pirate Day at Buffalo Bills training camp.

Now that we have that out of the way, the Bills will take the field this morning for the final time at St. John Fisher this summer. Practice begins at 8:45 a.m. Eastern preceded by an 8:15 press conference from head coach Sean McDermott. He will be asked, but likely won’t say anything about the player rotations on Friday night.

Things we are watching for

  • Rookie Josh Allen has been with the twos all week. If he’s there again today, we can expect to see him with the second-team offense on Friday night in the preseason game against the Cleveland Browns.
  • Is Shaq Lawson with the starting defense again and is injured starter Trent Murphy back on the field?
  • What’s the wide receiver rotation heading into Friday night? With Zay Jones returning from injury and Corey Coleman getting acclimated following his trade, the receiver depth chart is still very much up in the air.

Beaver Basketball to... uh... “Supplement” 2017 Season with AdvoCare Invitational

Oregon State accepts invitation to play in 2017 AdvoCare Invitational along with West Virginia, Nebraska, and others.

NCAA Basketball: Manhattan at West Virginia Ben Queen-USA TODAY Sports

Lost in the excitement of the Civil War win, Oregon State announced that hoops will be heading to Florida next Thanksgiving to play in the AdvoCare Invitational. For those that don’t know, AdvoCare is a company that sells nutritional supplements, which is why the title of this post is what it is. I just felt like that pun needed to be reiterated.

The AdvoCare Invitational has seen better years than 2017, talent-wise. Gonzaga won the 2016 tournament over the weekend. A tournament that has hosted schools such as Kansas, Michigan State, Xavier, and Florida State has fallen victim to the “College Bowl Game Phenomenon.” Now that everyone in the country goes to a tournament over the holidays, it’s gotten harder and harder to attract talented teams to travel to a tournament that might end up hurting their RPI later down the road. West Virginia will likely be the only team in the Invitational that will spend any time in the AP top 25 this year.

The brackets haven’t yet been announced, but barring a recruiting miracle elsewhere, West Virginia and Nebraska will be the teams to beat for the Beavers. The field also includes Marist, Central Florida, Long Beach State, Saint John’s, and Missouri (Missouri might end up being good next year but who knows. They lost to North Carolina Central last night.)

The Beavers travelling to Orlando and having the experience of playing against unfamiliar teams in a tournament format will be paramount to the youth of this squad should they end up in the tournament next March. Especially given what should be three winnable games, leaving Florida with a tournament win would be incredible momentum to ride into Pac-12 play in 2017. If nothing else, Drew Eubanks will hopefully leave with a few tubs of protein powder to reduce his salmonella risk from his 16 eggs a day.

Oregon State Draws Cal State-Fullerton In College World Series

New, 10 comments

The Titans held on to slide past the Dirtbags on Sunday afternoon in the Golden State.

NCAA College World Series Photo by Doug Pensinger/Getty Images

On Saturday night, Oregon State punched their ticket to Omaha after knocking off Vanderbilt with a convincing 9-2 victory, to win the “best of three” series in the NCAA Super Regional. On Sunday, they learned who their future opponent in middle America would be, when Cal State-Fullerton defeated Long Beach State, 2-1, to secure their own trip to the college baseball’s final eight.

The victory over the Dirtbags pushed the Titans overall record to 39-22 on the season, which includes a slew of remarkable moments along the way. Cal State-Fullerton started the season with an 11-2 record, which featured an impressive 8-game winning streak over the course of ten days in March. Throughout the season, the Titans have also had some strong outings against tough teams, which can be highlighted by a 4-1 overall season mark against Stanford and shut-out, 4-0 victory over Arizona back in March..

A solid regular season earned the Titans a spot in the Stanford regional, where they first blasted BYU before then-defeating the aforementioned Cardinal twice on back-to-back days, to secure a trip to the Super Regional round against Long Beach State. Against the Dirtbags, the Titans dropped the first game of the series but bounced back with convincing victories in Games 2 and 3, by a combined score of 14-1.

As a program heading into the season, Cal State-Fullerton has historically been one of the college baseball’s all-time best, as the Titans have won four National Championships (1979, 1984, 1995, 2004), made 17 College World Series appearances and have booked a trip to every NCAA Tournament in since 1992. However, this will be just the Titans second CWS appearance since 2010 and just the second trip under sixth-year head coach Rick Vanderhook. This season, the team is led by outfielder Sam Hurst, infielder Taylor Bryant, and pitchers Connor Seabold and Brett Conine.

While some match-ups have already been set for the final field of eight, the official NCAA College World Series bracket and schedules will be announced on Monday night at 8:00 PM PT. For more on Oregon State baseball in the meantime, check out our MLB Draft Preview, which features the draft prospectus for some of the top talents on the Beavers roster.

Ramadan Bazaars: SOPs for CMCO and RMCO areas this April to May 2021

They're back

Text: Adelina Tan

Image: Martin Tang

Ramadan and Aidilfitri bazaars are making a comeback this year. Here are the SOPs and operating hours you need to know about

Cancelled last year due to Covid-19 and the nationwide MCO, Ramadan bazaars are allowed to open in 2021. Aidilfitri bazaars, such as the one at Jalan TAR in KL, are likewise permitted this year by the National Security Council (NSC).

As usual these days, SOPs must be observed at the bazaars throughout the fasting month, from 12 April to 12 May. For easy reference, we’ve translated the do's (and don'ts) for both Ramadan and Aidilfitri bazaars in CMCO and RMCO states:

Operating Hours

Ramadan bazaar: 3pm to 8pm

Aidilfitri bazaar: 10am to 12am

Safety Protocols

  • Ramadan bazaars can only sell food and drinks
  • Aidilfitri bazaars can only sell dried goods
  • Controlled entry and exit into the bazaar, with physical distancing of 1 meter
  • Visitors and traders must wear a face mask at all times
  • Traders must also wear a special pass provided by the organiser, and a disposable plastic apron (Ramadan bazaar only)
  • Hand sanitisers will be provided at the entrance and usage is compulsory
  • Visitors must check in using MySejahtera at the entrance and at every stall—manually writing your name and phone number is permitted if there is no internet connection
  • Visitors and traders with a temperature above 37.5°C may not enter the bazaar

Do you think it’s safe for Ramadan bazaars to “open shop”—and will you be going to any this year? No matter what: stay safe, stay cautious and please follow the SOPs.

4x4 Parts in Darwin

Secure 4x4 Parts in Darwin with Ease and Hit the Trails Again

When you have a chance to work on your vehicle to get it ready for fresh adventures, what you need first is access to quality 4x4 parts in Darwin. With BushSkinz 4x4, you don't need to look far—you can tap into Australian quality right here and now. From suspension lift kits to important mods, the next step in your 4x4 journey is right here.

Tips Regarding 4x4 Equipment in Darwin

What are some helpful things to keep in mind as you look for the parts and kits you want?
  • Prioritise the parts that will yield tangible, beneficial results right away, then work on fine-tuning your system over time. Do you need to improve your suspension? Replace a broken spring or shock absorber? Have you already lifted your vehicles and now need an easier way to step up into the driver's seat? Start with the highest-priority alteration.
  • You don't need to stand in a store and stare at product packaging for hours, uncertain of what to buy. Not only can you shop from the comfort of your own home by browsing through the BushSkinz 4x4 catalogue online, but you can also receive the answers to your top 4x4 questions. We're always happy to help address your concerns to point you in the right direction.
  • Don't forget to customise parts to your liking when the option is available. At BushSkinz 4x4, we know that making your vehicle a personal statement is one of the best parts of our hobby. Ask about colour customisation before placing your order to find out what we can provide.

More Helpful Tips for 4x4 Suspension Lift Kits in Darwin

If you're looking to increase the height of your vehicle, you should:
  • Match your equipment to the type of terrain that you encounter the most. Heavy-duty shock absorbers and springs, such as those created by Australian-owned company King, are vital for rocky and uneven terrain. If you encounter sandy or loose terrain more often along with frequent on-road driving, you'll want a different set of shocks. We can point you in the right direction.
  • Don't forget to investigate supplemental suspension parts, including sway bar extensions, to ensure that you achieve the appropriate level of performance. No one wants to invest in lifting their 4WD vehicle only to discover that it doesn't have the appropriate equipment and level of freedom to move and engage with the terrain.
  • Take your typical load carrying capacity into account before making a purchase. Some kits are only rated for a few hundred kilograms of capacity, while others will allow you to travel with a heavy load.
Why We're a Cost-Effective Choice for 4x4 Parts in Darwin
At BushSkinz 4x4, we're here to help you enjoy your investment in your 4x4 vehicle to the fullest. To that end, we provide straightforward and fast access to quality brands and products that stand up to the tough Australian environment. When you can trust in your investment, you enjoy confidence and performance no matter where you drive. Questions or concerns? Contact us now.

Were digging in a ditch
Along came a bee
And stung them in their. .
Cock-tails, gingerale
Five centa a glass
If you don't like it
Shove it up your ass-k
Me no questions
I'll tell you no lies
That's what three Irishmen
Said before they died.

Coaches Association Withdraws Rangers GM Chukwu As NFF Technical Committee Representative

The Nigeria Football Coaches Association (NFCA) has recommended that the general manager of league champions Enugu Rangers, Christian Chukwu, is withdrawn as their representative on the technical committee of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).

This was contained in a statement released after the emergency meeting of the body’s executive committee in Abuja earlier this week.

The statement further pointed out that Christian Chukwu breached article 4:6 of the association’s statute after he failed to protect coach Imama Amapakabo from the injustice and unfair treatment meted out to him at Rangers.

Article 4:6 states that – “To advice guide and protect all football coaches of the ‘FEDERATION’ from injustice and unfair treatment arising from their employment and services arising from directly or indirectly from their performance of their duties as coaches within any organised football entity whatsoever.”

As a result of this breach, the executive committee therefore recommended his withdrawal pending his appearance before the body’s investigation and disciplinary committee.

Updated June 28

Finally, here are my favorite pictures from the Ball. Many more pictures have been provided very kindly by the  GOAL Ball Paris Flickr stream. Thank you, GOAL!

Surrounded by women. As usual.

Then surrounded by men!

Finally, all on his own.

The hands of Gabriel Byrne

And the bread of Gabriel Byrne

More pictures from the Ball are available in the Gallery!

Updated June 20

While we wait for pictures of the event to be posted at the official website, here is a (shaky) video of Gabriel Byrne’s remarks. Thanks to Stephanie for the heads up on this!

Roving Reporter Ara had a chance to meet Mr. Byrne! For more on that, head over to the Forum.

Time to dust off the top hat and get the tux out of mothballs!

The GOAL Paris Ball is Saturday night, June 18, at the Centre Culturel Irlandais in Paris. Ooo la la!

Please note: the event is sold out, just in case anyone was seriously considering catching a plane.

Guest of honour – Gabriel Byrne

Internationally renowned, award-winning actor, Gabriel Byrne is this year’s Guest of Honour thanks to Aer Lingus. Join him on the red carpet leading to a gala evening of entertainment in the specially erected marquee in the courtyard of the Centre Culturel Irlandais.

The Paris GOAL Ball committee is honoured to be welcoming Gabriel Byrne to Paris for this year’s Ball…

In 2010, the Irish Government appointed Gabriel Byrne as Cultural Ambassador for Ireland with the then Taoiseach, Brian Cowen, commenting:

“Gabriel Byrne is an internationally renowned, award-winning actor and is already well established as one of Ireland’s great ambassadors through his work in film and theatre, as well as his endeavors behind the scenes in supporting and promoting Irish artists”.

This is sure to be an evening to remember!

And be sure to give Paddy Sherlock and the Swingin’ Lovers, the headliners at the Ball, a listen!

More about GOAL

“Nature uses only the longest threads to weave her patterns, so that each small piece of her fabric reveals the organization of the entire tapestry.” – Richard P. Feynman

This Spring I was sitting at the table, in our breakfast room, and looking out the window at the dogwood tree which grows just outside. I stared at the tree for several minutes and all at once I grabbed my camera and went outside to make this image. I find that the creative process works best for me after a few minutes of quietly contemplating my subject.

9.1 Excellent
Pros:Beautiful view from the rooftop pool, good service, excellent central location on the waterfront. Good selection at breakfast, again with a beautiful view. Really good value considering this was a fairly late booking. Good coffee next door.

Cons:The suite was a bit bare for a 4 star hotel (no tissues, soap dish in the bathroom, spoons for coffee, water glasses, wine glasses/corkscrew despite fruit wine being a tourist item in the area, etc). The street was a bit loud, but OK after closing the bedroom door.

From a marketing perspective, cable’s foray into the telephone business is bad news for incumbent telephone companies. Getting there is not always good news for cable operators who have to overcome technical and marketing logistics to get into an alien business, according to panelists at this week’s Cable & Telecommunications Association for Marketing (CTAM) Summit in Philadelphia. Cable’s goal, said David Pulgliese, vice president of product marketing and management for Cox Communications, is to "put phone in the past for the RBOCs." The most effective way to do that is via a quadruple play of wireline and wireless voice, high-speed data and video entertainment, said Timothy Wyllie, vice president and general manager of telephony for Rogers Cable Communications, calling "the ability to provide the quad play all on our own network …very key." Rogers came into the phone business from a different perspective than U.S. providers. It already has a thriving wireless business and on July 1 launched Rogers Home Phone, a wireline VoIP business. Within "12 to 18 months" Wyllie predicted the two services will become a seamless phone number that can be reached via wireless phone when in the wider network and VoIP in the residence. Quad-play partner Time Warner Cable, which is trialing wireless service with Sprint in Kansas City, is taking a different approach by reselling Sprint PCS to its cable subscribers. As an incentive, those subscribers get free calls between their home and wireless phones. Time Warner has about 40,000 digital phone customers in Kansas City of whom about 40 percent already had a relationship with Sprint, said Dale Fox, the MSO’s vice president of digital phone. Even so, he said, convincing subscribers to buy into a Time Warner package is a "fairly complex sale" that "takes focus" to accomplish. "We’re all still waiting for this a-ha moment" when a wireless device is tied to cable, Fox said. That device "could be a conduit for the content we have today," especially as Sprint rolls out more EV-DO (Evolution-Data Optimized) broadband wireless phones. Even so, he concluded, there is "a little bit of a ways to go to get to the final product." By partnering with Sprint, Time Warner surrenders its brand name. That’s a route Sprint would like to see other cable operators follow as well, said John Garcia, Sprint’s senior vice president of sales and distribution, suggesting that cable should just resell Sprint service and let Sprint do the heavy lifting of being a wireless carrier. "The cable industry plays a very large role participating with companies like Sprint … to be a formidable competitor" to incumbent telephone companies, Garcia said. Cable, he added, should understand that the "wireless phone is becoming the third screen" for consumers. "There’s nothing you carry with you more often … than your wireless phone." Garcia stopped well short of offering cable a branded wireless play, saying Sprint will provide back office integration, a national footprint and retail presence so cable can get into the business "without the challenges of becoming a carrier." Home-grown wireless That strategy is still being mulled—not necessarily favorably—throughout the cable industry. Instead of giving up their brands for a quick-fix wireless play, some of the industry’s bigger players are more disposed toward a model like that being offered by GCI in Alaska. Via acquisition or home-grown tactics, GCI has acquired all the pieces for a quadruple play including GCI-branded wireless resale via a "major wireless carrier we partnered with," said Richard Dowling, senior vice president of corporate development. GCI sells branded service packages, including local loop telephone, data service—dial-up – and broadband—video entertainment and wireless. "Wireless is all about bundling," he said. It’s all about hard work and a "tremendous IT challenge to rolling out the wireless product." That, in fact, seemed to be the session’s message. There are a number of variants yet to be solved before cable adds a wireless leg to its services. Even the ebullient Garcia admitted that "integrated service … is going to have to show a lot more value than what’s out there today" because connecting the wireless service and VoIP—or even television—is "a daunting challenge." -Jim Barthold

It has only been a year since Comcast debuted X1, its cloud-based architecture designed to take TV to the next level. But before the MSO has even finished rolling it out to its entire footprint, Comcast chmn/CEO Brian Roberts on Tues once again took the main stage at the Cable Show to show off the next version called X2.

"The cloud is a game changer," said Roberts. "There’s a vibe at Comcast that I haven’t seen in many, many years." During an earlier on-stage interview, Roberts acknowledged that making all content available across devices is never easy as all sides wrangle. And he said that dynamic even takes place within Comcast as it manages its content and distribution units. "We’re like a family," he said. "Sometimes it looks messy."

Industry wide, he said all sides must create win-wins—or risk watching customers go elsewhere. "I continue to believe that we work together, and both sides can come out great," he said. "If you don’t have your products on every platform, you’re missing a generation." He also admitted TV Everywhere stumbles, arguing that "we haven’t made it as easy as we need to… We’re looking at all these problems. It’s very fixable." He said TVE triumphs include NBCU‘s well-received multiplatform coverage of the Olympics in London last year as well as plans to expand access for the upcoming games in Socci. And he noted Comcast’s recent "Watchathon," which opened up the TVE floodgates on massive amounts of TV content for a week. "For each of us, the answer is not the same," he said. "And we as distributors and content need to embrace that."

Enter X2, which Roberts hopes will start to tip the balance. Comcast has already tweaked its X1 platform a whopping 1200 times in the last year, but Roberts framed the X2 migration as a more substantial shift to an even slicker, more integrated platform that includes myriad new features including Web video integration, parental protections, more social media fun, "tablet-like" navigation (that ports more easily to those 2nd-screen devices) and even enhanced features for people with disabilities.

It’s also a more personal, customizable interface. A 4X faster and 3X smaller set-top that uses 50% less energy also will roll out in lockstep with the upgrades—although X2 will run on many legacy boxes. A smaller and simpler remote also will launch with the box. "I think we’re just scratching the surface," Roberts told attendees.

Later at a press conference at Comcast’s booth, Roberts seemed even more excited about X2, calling it a "quantum leap forward" and an opportunity to exploit an "inflection point" between consumer behavior and technology. "I think we’re going to have the best television service available," he said, adding that X2 will ensure that all customers get "one experience across the entire Comcast footprint" no matter what generation set-top box is in use.

So is X3 already in the works? Comcast CTO Tony Werner said Comcast will look at major upgrades of both software and boxes approx every 12 to 18 months—keeping a close eye on changing consumer behavior and expectations.

And yes, it’s still all about the speed. Before Roberts launched into his X2 pitch (and as Google continues to announce 1-gig plans in various cities), he demoed the real-world capabilities of Comcast’s broadband network, downloading in only a few seconds a 4K/UltraHD-quality video clip that weighed in at 4 gigabytes. The speedtest showed 3.282Gbps.

Got a crush on monster trucks? Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live! is rumbling into Corpus Christi

Meagan Falcon
Corpus Christi Caller Times
View Comments

See a robotic dinosaur breathe fire as it shreds a car with its claws and monster trucks fly more than 10 feet into the air at the American Bank Center this weekend.

Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live! will present two shows Saturday in Corpus Christi that will give families a chance to see monster trucks smash and crash.

Families are also encouraged to check out the show's crash zone, where arena-goers can pose in front of the monster trucks, meet the drivers and play with toy-size cars and monster trucks on Hot Wheels tracks.

The live show, which debuted in 2019, will visit Corpus Christi for the first time ever. This year's show will be one of 40 shows across the country.

Mike McFarlin, the show's operation manager, said the show will showcase six popular monster trucks as they compete in five specialized competitions for the chance to win the Titan Cup.

The competition categories include wheelies, donuts, a long jump, side-by-side racing and a freestyle round.

"The show is all about nonstop action," McFarlin said. "You'll never know what you can expect until it happens."

McFarlin said Hot Wheels fans will love the new truck designs of the V-8 Bomber, Hot Wheels Racing #1 and Bigfoot.

"We are happy to bring back the original Bigfoot body style that was popular in the 1970s," McFarlin said. "Fans of the original Hot Wheels monster truck will love this nostalgic throwback."

But that's not all fans can expect at the monster truck show. McFarlin said the show will introduce a robotic dinosaur called Megasaurus Rex. The transforming robot is known to breath fire and crush cars with its claws and razor-sharp teeth.

 "We are so excited to show Hot Wheels fans what this live show is all about. It's really something the whole family can enjoy," McFarlin said.

Your Facility Restored. Fast.

We’ve been doing institutional restoration work for 35 years, so we know how to minimize disruptions and downtime. Our priority is to complete your restoration work as quickly and efficiently as possible. We’re on the preferred vendors list of most of Canada’s insurance companies and we have an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. We’re on the preferred vendors lists of most of Canada’s insurance companies and we have an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.

What Kinds of Buildings?

Institutional restorations are distinct from other types of restoration and pose unique challenges. For example, protecting students in schools requires stricter safety and security measures than commercial or single-family residential buildings.

  • Hospitals, laboratories, and medical facilities: We assign specially trained teams equipped with machinery that meets the standards of local health authorities. We follow the CSA Z317 infection control protocols.
  • Schools: We observe strict safety protocols including criminal record checks for our employees and assigning additional staff to keep children safely away from the worksite.
  • Civic and government buildings: We staff civic building restorations with fully bonded crews that adhere to strict protocols. Our equipment is inspected daily so nothing is inadvertently brought onto or removed from the worksite.
  • Prisons: Fully bonded crews that adhere to strict protocols and equipment is inspected daily so nothing is inadvertently brought onto or removed from the worksite.

How Long Will It Take?

The time it takes to restore a damaged facility can be as short as a few hours or as long as a few weeks. How long it takes depends on:

  • Extent of damages/complexity of restorations
  • Weather (for outdoor restorations)
  • Type and size of loss
  • Number of specialty tradespeople & contractors
  • Custom orders

Completion times may be longer depending on the amount of damage and the construction of your facility. Your project manager will provide you with an estimated completion date.

What Will I Receive?

  • A dedicated project manager for easy, single point of contact communication. Every business is different and each project is unique, so your project manager will work with you throughout the restoration process to coordinate emergency remediation, provide work estimates and schedule repair and provide you with regular updates on our progress.
  • Fast & efficient service
  • Professionally trained, experienced tradespeople
  • Quality workmanship
  • Detailed invoicing
  • Documentation for insurance companies
  • Regular updates on progress of work

What Kind of Damage?

Fire and smoke damage can extend far further than the eye can see. Our experts can help restore your home after disaster strikes.

While water is essential for life, it is also one of the most destructive forces on Earth. We have restoration expertise to deal with damage from floods and leaks.

Storm damage can be caused by a number of different factors, such as falling trees and flying debris, high winds, and surface flooding.

As soon as it is safe to re-enter, our contents technicians begin working on the restoration of your contents, first on-site and then in our secure, climate-controlled facility.

Hazardous & Trauma

Our specialized training and experience means we can safely remove hazardous materials like asbestos, lead, and silica using the correct safety gear and disposal methods.

Health care workers of color fight twin pandemics of virus and racism

Brendan Kiley
The Seattle Times (TNS)
Microphone in hand, Hazzauna Underwood leads protesters in chants as they march from Harborview Medical Center to Seattle City Hall plaza on Saturday.

Before the pepper spray, before the pandemonium and the torched police cars that would light up media reports the next morning, Hazzaunah Underwood was downtown, peacefully protesting — and exhausted.

The nurse and single mother of four was worn out from several night shifts in the emergency department, on the front lines of fighting the novel coronavirus, but took the trip from her home in Mukilteo, Wash., to Seattle for the May 30 protest against police violence and embedded American racism.

It started peacefully but ended in flash bangs and shattered storefront windows — one of many protests across the country, then the world, sparked by the video of a white police officer killing George Floyd, a Black resident of Minneapolis.

For Underwood, it was supposed to be a day of recuperation from her two emergency-room jobs, one in Edmonds and one in Bellevue. She needed rest, and maybe a hike with the kids.

But she felt compelled to join the protest downtown, then other marches in days to come — despite the pandemic and its stay-home orders, and despite her own exhaustion.

“For me as an African American woman, police brutality has been my corona since before corona showed its face,” she said. “I have a 7-year-old son. I want him to be able to grow up, to walk the street, for me not to be fearful every time he leaves the house that he won’t come back.”

Her voice broke into tears. “It’s not OK,” she said. “So when do you speak? When do you stand up?”

For the past few weeks, the United States has been wrestling through two tough conversations with itself about two pandemics — though the volume got turned way up on the one about racism — and health care workers, particularly those of color, are living in the middle of both.

“Racism is the biggest public health crisis of our time,” said Dr. Nathan Colon (pronounced “cologne”), a Black surgeon at the University of Washington who attended a June 6 demonstration with thousands of health care workers and their supporters, which marched from Harborview Medical Center down First Hill to City Hall. (Underwood was at that one, too.) “As health care providers, we take care of people.”

But how do they navigate the tension between those two crises? To take care of people by urging them to “Stay Home, Stay Safe,” as Gov. Jay Inslee dubbed his March 23 social distancing order, or to wade into the streets for political action?

“I felt the risk was bigger not to go,” said Tupamara “Tupi” Maestas, an OB/GYN nurse from South Seattle. “By not going, I was risking the lives of the people I care about, people of color who are harassed and afraid to call the police, even for assistance. Both my parents came with me. We felt the benefit outweighed the risks for having our voices heard.” (Maestas’ mother is a public health nurse; her father, Juan Bocanegra, is a longtime organizer of Seattle’s annual May Day immigrants’ rights march.)

For Underwood, and other working parents like her, the negotiation between being on the front lines of coronavirus and the front lines of activism is complicated by even starker, more immediate factors: the needs of her children, and the number of hours in the day. Lately, because of the stay-home orders, she’s not only a single mother and a nurse in the middle of a pandemic — she’s a teacher, too.

“I’d be exhausted, mentally and physically at work, seeing the sickness, seeing the death, literally counting the bodies in the morgue to see if another one can fit,” she said.

Then she goes home.

“You have to keep it together, not only at work for people looking to you for direction, but for your children,” she said. “I’ve got to pretend I didn’t just see what I saw at work, but put on my mom face and my teacher face. So the question is: ‘When do I sleep?’” to credit the people helping her, including nearby siblings and an overnight babysitter who looks after the children during nursing shifts, and has been staying in the mornings to help with schoolwork.

But Underwood says that, despite these demands, the protests have provided an unexpected surge of energy — and hope.

After years, and generations, of talking and marching about racism, after so many videos and photographs of people of color being killed by white police officers or white vigilantes, she feels like the United States has hit a mysterious moment of critical mass.

“I don’t know how to explain it,” she said. “I feel like this time is different. I feel like people are a little more open-minded, finally willing to listen.”

Other health care workers think so, too. Some suspect it’s because the video of George Floyd’s killing was so graphic.

“It took irrefutable proof,” Nhi Tan, a nephrologist at the University of Washington, said at the June 6 medical workers’ march. “The perfect video, the perfect camera angle, the perfect light for America to see what’s going on.”

Hazzauna Underwood, front, with daughter Zanaii in tow, says she fights to balance the needs of her children and job, as well as the  movement for racial equality.
