How do I brand my ministry well?

1. Promote an identity, not a product

The best brands in the world do this; brands like Coca-cola, Apple and Nike.  Nike’s motto isn’t “use incredible athletic gear”, it’s “just do it”.  They’re promoting a lifestyle, an attitude, an identity, what it says about you if you buy into their brand.

A photo by Liz Weston., practically, how do you do this?  Branding is simply communicating about your identity and inviting people to participate. Your identity is what makes you unique, your DNA, who you are, your story. Try getting in a room with some of your key leaders and making a list of words that define you.  Use this time to describe your current identity, not to try to brainstorm about who you want to be.  Unless you have the help of branding experts, branding is usually done best when the goal is to reinforce your identity, not to try to reinvent it.

One reason you might want your branding to be shaped by your identity, instead of your product, is to avoid promoting a consumerist church culture, where people attend because of what they can get, not because of who they are.  One way you can do this is by communicating more about who you are and less about what you have coming up.  If your website, emails, social media, lobby signage and announcements are inundated with communication about events, classes, and upcoming series, but don’t include core beliefs, mission statements, or defining characteristics, consider changing that. Announcements are important, but don’t allow that to be all you communicate.

In my student ministry, I made a rule a long img_6095time ago that I was going to take less
photos of special events and on-stage elements, and more photos of our students.  I want the photos we post to communicate more about who we are as a community, and less about what cool things we have to offer. Using genuine photos of people in real interactions communicates identity, not product.

2. Be consistent

Reinforce your branding by coming up with a look and feel, and sticking with it… for several years! Choose a font or two, a color scheme, a style, and a few key phrases, then build all of your communication out of that framework. Slapping your logo on something does not mean you have “branded” it. Building your logo and all of your communication from the same design scheme, a scheme that is informed by your identity, does mean you have branded it.  If you work hard at getting it right in the beginning, this will actually save you lots of time and creative energy in the long run.

A new series or upcoming event can be a challenging exercise in consistency.

 Sometimes we want those things to be fresh and totally different, but think of them as branches of the same tree.  A new series or event should have some consistency with your current branding, but can break a couple fullsizerender-8of the rules as well.  Our brains are wired to make associations. So being consistent allows people to begin recognizing your brand, and making associations to other times they’ve encountered it.
For a great example of this, follow @shereadstruth on instagram. Every time an image of theirs pops up in my feed, I know it’s from them, even before I look at the profile name.

3. Stay Current

Is this something I really need to prioritize?  The gospel doesn’t go out of style, right?  We know that God doesn’t become outdated or irrelevant.  But even Jesus contextualized His message.  He understood the culture and He referenced it frequently to relate with people.

Especially if you are working in student or college ministry, trends are important, and here’s why.  We want students to feel like our ministry is a place where they belong, where they can be accepted, where we get them.  I’ve seen it a bunch of times in our student ministry.  When a new leader walks in who dresses trendy, knows current song lyrics, and uses some of the slang their students use, they win automatic relational points. Students often open up quicker, and are able to be more vulnerable with these leaders because they feel understood.  For older leaders, staying up to date might be a little harder, but let others help you.  Use social media, pinterest, blogs, and your younger friends to influence you. Here’s a list of resources I use for inspiration.   Be yourself! Don’t be the leader who’s trying too hard! But, as genuinely as possible, try to keep an open mind as you allow the pulse of culture to inform your approach.

4. Be inclusive

We want students to know that being a img_6089Christian means they are a child of God,
adopted into His family and given the opportunity to participate in the redemptive work He is doing on earth. They should feel like they’re part of a family, they belong, they aren’t going to be overlooked. Social media has the ability to make them feel very included or very excluded, depending on how it’s used.  Use photos of students, photos of leaders, and photos of the prep you are doing throughout the week to make them feel like they’re part of it all.  Invite them to participate, to be heard, to contribute. Be personal in your wording. Use the words, “I” and “you”.

The goal is for students to go from using phrases like “I go to Mosaic Students” to “I am a Mosaic Student”, from “I go to church” to “I am a son or daughter of God”.

Instagram Photo Trends

Intentional photography is a great way to highlight the people, the events, and the identity of your group. Here are some creative types of photos that have been popular on social media in many churches and student ministries.

Go-To Online Design & Production Resources

Collaboration is the lifeblood of creative disciplines.  Some of the most practical information we can share with each other is where we go for helpful tools, resources, and inspiration. Here are several websites, apps, podcasts, and social media influencers I use frequently.  Without these tools, my effectiveness and skill level would be drastically lower than it is today.

Animoto is a website with templates for quick, easy, and beautiful videos or slideshows.

Fiverr provides a ton of graphic design and marketing services, but we’ve utilized them for their $5 or $10 custom intros & animated logos.

Monoprice is an online store that sells a ton of electronic and tech equipment.  It is frequently the first place our production team members go when we need to buy anything from a speaker, to a cable, to an ipad stand.

Vimeo Video School is a place to go for some quick, engaging, and very helpful training videos on just about anything you can think of related to video production.

Planning Center Online helps us plan and execute our gatherings.  It’s a super-powerful church management tool that has capabilities to facilitate check-in, event registrations, volunteer management, worship team scheduling and more.

Collaborate Worship is a website and facebook community page that creates and shares useful articles for people in production and worship ministry.

Church Stage Design Ideas is a website and facebook community page that shares stage design example, ideas, materials, and tutorials.

Visual Church Media is a facebook group of more than 10,000 members, willing to share their ministry and production experience with you.

Unsplash and Creative Commons are my go-to websites for finding great images that I can legally use, share, and modify.

Ripl App

Created with Ripl App

Over helps you add beautiful text or graphics to your images.

Tangent incorporates geometric image filters to your photos.

 uses short animations to bring your images to life and help them stand out on social media.

Finely Crafted is a podcast hosted by two guys from Proof Branding in Nashville.

Under the Influence is a branding podcast with Terry O’Reilly produced by BBC.

The Student Ministry Podcast is produced by a good friend, Kenneth Ortiz, who’s experience in Student Ministry, I highly respect.  It’s full of helpful resources, wisdom and tips.

Guest: Crime Theory meets Cheaterspeak.

Featured Image -- 281Here’s an interesting article from Honey and the Homewrecker on how some people employ a process of rationalization to justify bad or unethical behavior. I loved the featured graphic: “a guilty conscience needs no accuser.” Very true, but if and only if the person in question actually has a conscience. Some people simply don’t. My experience with a serial cheater has shown that some people can exist under layer after layer of deceit, and do so for years. Their lives are so highly compartmentalized that it can work for long periods, until …

Honey and the Homewrecker.

What is the difference – ethically speaking – between a common criminal and a man (or woman) who cheats on their spouse? I’d argue very little.

Human values are formed by internalizing social norms, which is how we each come to decide what makes us a good – or intrinsically valuable – person. These norms are shared among the people within a society and become the basis for laws and ideals about appropriate human behavior. For example, I think most people who favor fair play and integrity would agree that defrauding widows of their life savings is wrong and never okay. If only there were such a hard and fast rule about marital betrayal and robbing a family of one of its most vital members.

Alas, adultery is casually glossed over as being little more than a nebulous or murky part of the nuances of adult love relationships. It’s not. It should be called out for…

In Pictures: Social Distancing Around the World

Read in your language:

DESPARDES — It’s estimated that about a third of the world’s population is under lockdown in their own homes, and, in many countries, social distancing is being enforced by the police.

Setting Up the Labs

Use these instructions to install the lab repository on your computer prior to starting the labs. You must also install Node.js (the most recent LTS version).

  • These labs are intended to be used on systems running Windows 7 (and later), macOS X 10.1 (and later), and Linux.
  • Multiple browsers - although individual labs may require a specific level of support for progressive web apps, we recommend trying out the labs on multiple browsers (where feasible) so that you get a sense of how different users might experience the app.
  • A programming editor - for example, Atom, Sublime Text, or Notepad++ (for Windows only).

Install Git

Install the latest version of Git on your computer.

Clone the repo

Open your computer's command line interface. Clone the course repository with Git using the following command:

git clone

Then navigate into the repository:

cd pwa-training-labs

Some projects in the download contain folders that correspond to checkpoints in the lab. You can refer back to these checkpoints if you get stuck during the labs.

Set up Node & NPM

If you don't have Node.js, download and install the latest long term support (LTS) version from the website. After Node.js is installed, you can skip the rest of this doc and start the labs.

If you already have Node.js installed on your computer, check that it is the latest LTS version with the following command:

node -v

If it's not the latest LTS version, follow the instructions below to install the right version.

Using NVM

If you have an existing version of Node.js installed that you would like to keep, you can install a Node.js version manager (for macOS and Linux platforms and Windows). This tool (NVM) lets you install multiple versions of Node.js, and easily switch between them. If you have issues with a specific version of Node.js, you can switch to another version with a single command.

Install Node.js by running one of the following commands from the command line:

If you have installed Node Version Manager (for macOS, Linux, or Windows):

nvm install node <version>

For example:

nvm install node 8.9.4

For the Windows version you can specify whether to install the 32-bit or 64-bit binaries. For example:

nvm install node 8.9.4 64

Without NVM

If you did not install NVM, download and install Node.js from the website.

This also installs Node's package manager, npm.

Check Node and NPM versions

Check that Node and npm are both installed by running the following commands from the command line:

node -v
npm -v

If both commands return a version number, then the installations were successful.

Excluding terms

To exclude a term from search results, prepend the - character to the term you want to exclude. For example, the following search returns all functions with the term main, but excludes matches found in C++ files.

function:main -lang:cpp

ELLIS COUNTY, Texas (CBSDFW.COM) – A tornado reportedly touched down in Ellis County Monday night, May 3.

CBS 11 storm chaser Mike Prendergast was following the path when he came across a serious crash on I-35E near Waxahachie involving a big rig.

Big rig wreck on I-35 in Ellis Co. during reported tornado (credit: Mike Prendergast).

“It was a really bad accident,” said Prendergast. “That was where the tornado crossed. Several people that were a witness to it say they saw it cross. There were several cars that were thrown into the field next to Interstate 35E. There were at least two semis that were blown over and several cars involved as well in [the accident].”

Predergast also held the hand and comforted the man injured in the big rig.

He explains what happened here.

There is no official word on injuries, but witnesses said rescue crews were still working to pull the man from the big rig as of 10:35 p.m.

The northbound side of the interstate was shut down indefinitely while crews worked on getting the man out and later removing the wreckage.

Heavy rain, winds and lightning were prevalent issue in multiple North Texas counties Monday night.

Skylar Runnels shared video on Twitter of a tornado in Blum in Hill County.

There have been no reports of injuries or serious damage as of yet. Staff

Work on theoretical and descriptive linguistics

I worked at UCL from 1964 to 2004 as a linguist (what I’d prefer to call a ‘linguistician’ to avoid misunderstanding). During that time I taught undergraduates and PhD students and did research on the theory of language structure. My brainchild is a theory called Word Grammar.

Since retirement my research has continued, but I’ve combined it with a great deal more work on education.

Here are some links to my work:

And at least one tip for those writing about linguistics:

Chrystal Macmillan to Jane Addams, May 11, 1916

46 Cranley Gardens,

May 11th. 1916.

Dear Miss Addams,

I was very glad to get your letter of April 18th. a few days ago but am very sorry that your health keeps you more or less a prisoner. It is [illegible] difficult to know where to take up one's correspondence. So many letters go amissing. I think by this time you will have received the letter I wrote months ago at The Hague. It was sent back to The Hague and then to Stockholm after being through the British censor's hands but I sent instructions to have it posted on to you. I left Amsterdam in order to attend the Annual business Meeting of the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies and do some other things while I was here and intended to go straight back to Holland as soon as possible. <There was no hidden reason although it was a great pleasure to be in my own country after being almost an exile for a year.> When there was some word of changing the place of meeting to Copenhagen, or Stockholm, I postponed starting, or rather making application for a permit, till the place was decided. Even after the meeting was put off I intended to go back, and have put in an application for a permit now nearly [page 2] four weeks ago, but have as yet no reply from the authorities.

You say you do not know whether the meeting was indefinitely postponed after consulting the members of Committee, or not. I think you will have by this time have received from the Amsterdam Headquarters the two circular letters 13 and 14 which show that all the Committees have been consulted and which give an indication how very much more difficult it now is to get permits and passports than it was a year ago. I agree with Miss Manus and Dr. Jacobs that it would not be possible to get together a representative meeting.

I should very much like to meet Miss Balch to hear all that has been happening in the United States the last six months. There does not seem to be much hope of meeting her.

The Women's International League had a Conference a few weeks ago to discuss subjects which may arise in our Conference after the War, but we have not yet chosen our 20. The Danish 30 seem to be going very systematically to work; they have regular meetings. That is the advantage of being such a small country. The Norwegian Committee has sent about $125 to the central fund. It is splendid considering how poor Norway is and how little other women's societies give to international [page 3] objects.

You seem to have kept the [program] well to the fore at your January Conference at Washington. I see an account of it now for the first time in "INTERNATIONAAL" for March-April. I am glad you went again to President Wilson and Secretary Lansing. Things are not looking very bright just now.

I have asked the Women's International League to send to the various National Secretaries the Official Parliamentary Reports of speeches likely to be of special interest to them. I hope Mrs. Thomas has been receiving her copies.

Hoping you are getting stronger,

I am,
Yours sincerely,

Chrystal Macmillan. [signed]

Replace one widget with another

Under Plugins → Replace Selection with Widget, I succeed in replacing several widgets but I seem to have no control over the widgets that the selection is being replaced with. How does that work?

Did you see the description in the brief plugins-documentation? If I understand you correctly you have to first copy the widget to the clipboard…

Ok, that worked. Thanks!

Web MIDI API support for MIDI 2.0

Greetings all. MIDI 2.0 was approved on January 19th, 2020. I’d like to see Web MIDI API updated or complemented with support for MIDI 2.0.

There’s a lot of new capabilities in 2.0! It’ll probably take some work to get there, but it’ll be great when the Web can fully make use the newly expanded Musical Instrument Digital Interface.

Just a stub right now, but I did open a repository for this initiative. I’ll look for better source/reference material soon to start work off of.

I also opened web-midi-api#211 to discuss this, and followed the steps to file a Project Fugu feature request with Chromium.

I am trying to also get V1.0 running first while V2.0 is evolving. I started a topic at the Midi Org forum today and also at Chromium which is linked to in my topic. I have a Roland keyboard that has undisclosed features that I have obtained documentation from hardware engineers just as V2.0 may encounter. My current system can alternatively boot Android 9 or Linux / Debian 10 / Ubuntu 20.04 to test.

What Are You Watering?

No matter where you go, water is both a basic and universal need. According to The USGS Water Science School, about 71 percent of the earth is covered by water and the oceans hold about 96.5 percent of all Earth’s water. Health experts recommend drinking six to eight glasses of water a day. While most of us are finding ways to earn and save money, there are many parts of the world that are searching for clean water and ways to conserve it.

As water is a key component to sustaining life, it can also be used to represent the time, attention, and affection we commit to see things grow. There are three essential areas of life worth asking the question, “What are you watering?”

  1. Priorities (Health): Overall health is a key performance indicator in life and is a predictor of growth. Consider these areas of health to stay grounded in your priorities: Spiritual health centers on our internal system of operation and it impacts our thinking. Some practices to help water your spiritual health are prayer, quiet time, Bible reading, and meditation. To the degree we are renewed spiritually we can operate effectively. Physical health consists of what we put into our bodies as well as the amount of exercise and rest we get on a daily basis. Relational health is the deep connections we are developing and growing with others. Being authentic and transparent in conversation and action is a key practice. Financial health is living within your means. It involves living on a budget, having a rainy day fund, saving for the future, as well as diversifying your investments to build long term wealth. One important concept to keep in mind in financial health is that your income is your best wealth building tool. Whether income comes by dividends, endorsements,business profit, or working a job you earn money by what you do but you use it by who you are. Your money flows in the direction of your character. Your priorities are what give you a solid base of support in life.

  2. Opportunities (Height): These are the moments made available to you by time and chance and what you do with them. They come in all shapes and sizes and are beneficial to the degree you can discern them and mesh them into your daily routine by giving ample time and attention to them. Opportunities can be given or created. They can be given in response to preparation and connection. They can also be created out of a desire to meet a need in the world. Whether given or created, they have the ability to greatly improve quality of life if you approach them correctly and apply yourself wholeheartedly to them. Opportunities often carry the aura of excitement and adventure and we can miss opportunities staring in our face because of this single track thinking. When I took advantage of the opportunity to write blogs and books, I didn’t realize the sacrifices I would have to make for the sake of the opportunity. In economics this is referred to as opportunity cost. There were days when ‘exciting’ and ‘adventurous’ was replaced by ‘mundane’ and ‘uninspiring.’ Don’t let bad days turn you off from the opportunity in front of you. Two questions to ask when assessing an opportunity: Is this the time? How will this opportunity impact my priorities?

  3. Proclivities (Habits): These are your tendencies, inclinations, bent, bias, or predictive responses toward life as it happens. Our habits are our repetitions which eventually form our reputation. Our habits will either trend our lives upward or downward depending on their effect on our lives over time. Our lives are continuously designed by the pen of our habits. The blame game is as old as Adam in the Garden of Eden, and is always the path of least resistance traveled by those who are reactive rather than proactive. When you are proactive you focus on watering essential habits in two distinct areas: attitude and paradigm. Your attitude is the posture of mind you hold at any given time. Your attitude determines your altitude but it also plays a critical role in growing your aptitude (competence). Your paradigm is the view or lens through which you see life. Your view will either lighten or darken the world around you. By changing your attitude and shifting your paradigm, your habits will become an aide and not a hindrance to your progress.

Final thought: Water is vital to the development of a seed. It is part of what will change the structure of the seed in the ground to bring out the fruit it is capable of producing. What we water becomes stronger. What we don’t, wilts. As we water what is necessary for our lives, we operate from a place of strength and not stress.

Keep On Keeping On!

  1. Good afternoon Brother David, thanks for the blog. Watering covers a multitude of areas about life. Never looked at watering this is way before. Will take inventory of what I am watering and how I am doing it. Thanks Brother David for such insightful and intelligent information. Have a good day, God bless.

Peer tutoring in schools: cognitive models and organizational typography

Allen Thurston, Keith J. Topping

    Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

    The authors define peer tutoring and describe the types of peer tutoring reported in the literature. An organizational typography of peer tutoring in school classrooms is presented, and the variables that influence patterns, nature and effectiveness of peer interaction are explored. Cognitive models of peer tutoring approaches that follow either Piagetian theories of cognitive conflict or Vygotskian theories of co-construction are compared and the similarities and differences of each model interrogated. The influences each model may have on cognitive and affective development, as well as metacognition, are illustrated. The authors discuss knowledge transfer issues to facilitate the development of effective models of peer tutoring in the classroom practice of teachers in schools. Finally, areas for future research and development are highlighted.

"Captain Turner Returns" is the sixteenth episode of the Disney Channel animated series, Elena of Avalor. It premiered on April 8, 2017.

Naomi is giving Elena a tour of the Lighthouse. She is showing Elena Isabel's invention the Light Writer, a special lantern to send messages to ships at sea, when Felipe comes in with a message from Naomi's mother, Scarlett, saying she is coming home with a big surprise for her father. Naomi uses the Light Writer to give the message to her father Daniel, who heads home to get the house ready. Naomi, Elena, Daniel and his crew arrive and instantly start cleaning. While they clean, Naomi confides in Elena how she hopes her mom is finally coming home for good.

Scarlett arrives and tells them her big surprise: She has indeed gotten the job that will allow her to stay with her family. To Naomi's disappointment, Scarlett announces that she got the job in the Kingdom of Norburg, the Turner family's homeland, and because of that they have to move back there in four days. Naomi tells Elena she does not want to move back to Norberg because she has not seen the place since she was two years old and Avalor has been her real home since she arrived. Elena resolves to find a way to convince her mother to let her stay in Avalor. Naomi warns Elena that her mother will not be easy to convince but Elena is adamant.

The next day, Elena offers Scarlett the position of Surpreme Commanding Master Chief Admiral of the Avalor Coast Guard but Scarlett says no. Elena then offers her a new carrige, her choice of a new ship, and a set of stainless steel swords if she says yes but she still says no telling Elena that she feels at home in Norberg since she grew up there. Elena and Naomi then take Naomi to Doña Paloma's store, but the delicacies only make Scarlett decide to take them back to Norberg as souvenirs. Elena and Naomi then take her to the lighthouse to show her the Light Writer, but this only makes Scarlett decide that they should leave the next day so Naomi can build one in Norberg. Francisco and Luisa tell Naomi she should just tell her mother the truth. Naomi tries to do so when she gets home, but her parents make such a big deal out of being together in Norberg that she does not have the heart to because she also wants her family to be together. When Naomi tells Elena, Elena resolves to give her a proper goodbye.

In the Throne Room, Elena thanks Naomi for her services on the Grand Council and gives her a medal with a Maruvian Crystal in it. The Citizens of Avalor also come by to say farewell to Naomi. Scarlett is surprised that her daughter means so much to Avalor to which Daniel tells her it is because she makes a difference wherever she goes. On the way to the ship, Scarlett stops everything and asks Naomi what is wrong as she knows when her daughter is brave-facing. Naomi tells her that she does not want to go back to Norberg as her heart belongs to Avalor and that she did not say anything to her and her father about it because the move made them so happy. Scarlett tells Naomi home is where the heart is and agrees they are staying in Avalor, to everyone's joy.

  • Isabel's invention in this episode is the Light Writer: a lantern that sends messages to ships at sea.
  • Moral: Home is where the heart is.
  • Scarlet Turner mentions Corinthia, a kingdom from Sofia the First.

#DisneyMagicMoments: Enter the Grid on TRON Lightcycle Power Run at Shanghai Disneyland

Jeremy Schoolfield

by , Managing Editor, Walt Disney World Resort Public Relations

Are you prepared for digitization? Then enter the Grid and hop aboard TRON Lightcycle Power Run at Shanghai Disneyland!

In this new “Ride & Learn” video, you’ll discover all sorts of fascinating insights into the creation and story of this thrilling and iconic roller coaster attraction. The feeling of launching out under its undulating canopy is unlike anything else I’ve ever experienced in a Disney park (especially at night!).

I’m typically a front-row coaster guy, but on TRON Lightcycle Power Run, I love sitting farther back, like you see in this video. From this perspective, you have a fantastic view of the glowing lightcyles as they race along in front of you and power through the Grid.

So jump on your virtual lightcycle and sync the pedal to moto-metal while twisting, turning and riding for victory in the cyber-fi world of TRON! And keep checking back with us here at the Disney Parks Blog for more #DisneyMagicMoments like this one.

  • the most iconic attraction, excited by the opening in the Magic kingdom

  • This coaster is really cool, short, but cool. I rode it about a year and half ago when I went to China. Can’t wait to ride it again.

Diva's Quick Tips Health and Wellness

Diva’s Quick Tips: 4 Ways to Modify Your Wardrobe While on Your Weightloss Journey

Image Credit:Universal Standard

One of the most challengibg times a woman may experience is her weight loss journey. It can be filled with highs and lows both in weight and emotion. And to add to all of that, knowing how to dress your body during your own journey to a better you can add another layer of stress. I know because I am currently on my own path to a healthier me. Here are a few things I picked up along the way and will continue to implement until I reach my goal weight.

1. Shop Sales

Shop sales as much as possible. No need buy an item at full price when you don’t intend to stay that size. This doesn’t mean sacrifice quality.  Choose items that will be easy to get some money back for when it is time to purge your older clothing.

2. Elastic is Your Friend

I have soooo many elastic waist skirts now. A stretch in the waist allows you to have some fice as your weight fluctuates which also allows you to extend the wear.

Tip: While shopping, look for thick and durable feeling elastic waist bands that have a sturdy snap back as well as adjustable waist skirts and pants.

3. Go for Dresses

I know, I know, dresses aren’t everyone’s cup of tea. Hear me out, will you? They can be so forgiving, versatile, and comfortable! Dress ’em up, dress ’em down, gain or lose a few pounds and it will still fit!

Tip: Go for A-Line dress that pull over your head or wrap dresses. Sheath dresses that button or zip don’t always allow much room.

4. Prepare to Buy New Undies

When your waist shrinks, the boobs and booty will follow. You may have to get measured a time or two while you sweat away those inches.

Tip: This is the perfect time to cash in on sales, points, bucks, cash, or whatever your favorite store calls it where you get your lingerie from.

There you have it! Any tips you would like to add? Let everyone know in the comments!

My breaker box is surface mounted in my garage. I want to install an outlet right next to it by running a conduit nipple out the side of the breaker box to the new outlet box. I then want to run NM from that outlet box in conduit up the wall and through the ceiling (conduit for protection and get me through the ceiling). From there I will take the NM across the attic (no conduit needed) to another wall then down through the ceiling and down the wall in conduit to a second outlet box.

Will this be within code? Am I allow to come out the side of the breaker box?

Go ahead -- although you may have to run THHN through the nipple from the panel

Coming out the side of a panelboard is a nothingburger under the NEC under most cases. The reason why you're confused is you're thinking this whole assembly is a protective sleeve under the 312.5(C) exception, which requires the sleeve come out the top, when it really isn't as the receptacle box interrupts it.

The easiest way to dispel any confusion is to use short lengths of THHN in the nipple for the home run, if you will, and then run the NM from the first receptacle up the sleeve from the receptacle box to wherever it needs to go. This bypasses 312.5(C) and its rather limiting exception altogether.

Just remember to use a conduit-to-NM transition fitting (EMT-to-NM transition fittings are standard parts) on the free ends of the conduit sleeves.

  • And if you buy white THHN, that's all you need. It's neutral. Or it's hot if you wrap both ends with tape. Strip it bare, it's ground. But EMT conduit is already ground. Your NM cable will need to take ground off the EMT; there'll be a tapped hole in the steel box for a 10-32 ground screw. Receptacle grounds by its steel ears being clamped tight to the steel box. Cut the screws short so they don't bottom out on the EMT pipe fitting. – Harper - Reinstate Monica Jan 5 '17 at 4:10
  • Run a separate ground wire -- either green or bare -- from the grounding busbar to the outlet. Even though it's permissible to use the conduit as a ground, a separate ground wire is WAY more reliable. (If a locknut gets loose, you can lose your ground.) It should be connected to the tapped hole in the back of the box in addition to the green screw on the outlet and the ground wire in the NM/Romex. – Jonathan J Jan 5 '17 at 5:50

I bought my first place in December, five months ago. It's a new 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom condominium in San Francisco CA, and they finished construction in October 2019.

Over the last few days, other residents have been complaining about mold in the same position as my closet in the multi-story building. I decided to check my closet, and found a load of mold along the exterior of the wall. Some areas area more localized, where it follows the wall. In other areas, it's covered the items of clothing, such as my shoes.

  • What should I do immediately about the mold? I'm worried about breathing in the mold, and unsure of whether I should try and save the items of clothing that have mold on them.
  • What should I do in the medium-term? Do the builders have an obligation to address the root cause of the issue, and/or pay for damaged items?

Thank you in advance for any advice! I'm a little stressed out by it, so will very much appreciate it.

Edits –

Building description. 9 levels with 8 floors of condominiums, 4 to 6 on each floor. I am on the 4th floor. Some parts of the exterior are concrete.

New learnings: The room where this occurred is on the exterior of the building, where the exterior wall is concrete. I have since found out that the same unit in 3 floors above me and 1 unit below me have found mold in the same area of their units.

What's happened since: I agreed to let the building company arrange for a mold inspector to see the mold, and arrange for cleaners to remove the mold. When the inspectors arrived, they arrived with 3 others' from the building company. I didn't know one of them - they might have been a legal representative (they asked again for permission to enter our unit, and were particularly cautious). The unit above me decided against accepting their offer (to provide mold inspection and removal) on the advice of their legal advisor.

Current state: The cleaner who was sent by the building company removed all the visible mold from my unit, though they only wiped it off surfaces, and didn't check under the carpet etc. The carpet in that area is still damp. I put a dehumidifier and an air purifier in there, though the dehumidifier is pulling up about the same amount of water each day.

Short term ask: San Francisco is going to be in a 'shelter in place' situation for a while longer, so we cannot leave. I therefore need to fix this as quick as possible, even if I pay myself. I don't want to risk health issues due to the mold that has been growing about 10 feet away from my bed, and 5 feet from my desk. I therefore want to identify whether there are affordable solutions that reduce the health risk to me.

    I've seen a similar case, it was due to builders forgetting to put insulation in one spot of the exterior wall, causing moisture to condense there. Builder fixed it without charge (they have 10 year liability here by law). – jpa Apr 27 '20 at 15:29

    You can kill the mold on the items of clothing by washing them at high temperature and/or using rubbing alcohol to clean away the mold. Bleach also works miracles but will damage the items. You can use bleach to remove mold front the closet being careful not to damage paint if any. – JoErNanO Apr 27 '20 at 20:21

    Seems a little odd in San Francisco, as it is not an exceptionally cold climate. But I suppose the humidity is high at times, and that can be a factor. But the usual cause is condensation (from moisture in the inside air) collecting on the cold (and probably inadequately insulated) wall. Though it could also be due to some sort of ventilation problem. – Hot Licks Apr 27 '20 at 22:04
  • Condominium. Need to contact the 'association'. The builders have an obligation to pay for w/e after the association sues them. Or if the representative gets them to make a deal. If that's you, this has nothing to do with DiY yet. Once that's out of the way, and you're captain of the entire ship, we can progress. Otherwise all of this will get hired out. – Mazura Apr 28 '20 at 23:20
  • There's a stack or a wet wall that has a leak, or the entire exterior of the building needs to be inspected. That is beyond any one home owner, and you should do nothing (except clean at it) until the root of the problem is addressed, which requires all of you on board. – Mazura Apr 28 '20 at 23:24

What should I do immediately about the mold? I'm worried about breathing in the mold, and unsure of whether I should try and save the items of clothing that have mold on them.

There's a couple of things about mold to consider.

Mold needs moisture to grow. The first step in any mold problem is to identify where the water is coming from. If it's an outside wall, it could be as simple as the wall has a draft that allows cooler air to penetrate the wall and condense moisture. It could be as complex as an undetected water leak inside the wall. You need to know what's going on with that first, as simply removing the mold won't stop the mold from recurring. This may entail opening the wall up to figure this out. Any good mold remediator will probably do that anyways.

As far as health goes, most mold is of the grey variety. Black mold is the nasty stuff, but it's also pickier about environments. Most grey mold will grow anywhere that is damp, but black mold likes it wet all the time. If you have had someone look at the mold, what you might want to do is remove everything with mold and clean it with either bleach or a mold-killing cleaner. Mold likes to grow where it has material to feed on (like clothing). Because this is a closet, it's unlikely to have any serious impacts in your health (unless it's black mold). Regular mold is mostly a lung irritant. Leave the door closed and you should contain most of the problem.

What should I do in the medium-term? Do the builders have an obligation to address the root cause of the issue, and/or pay for damaged items?

If this is new construction, and there is a building fault causing this (leak or poor insulation) then the builder is likely liable (consult a lawyer to know what California law says, or ask on Law.SE). Most states have laws to protect buyers against immediate problems after new construction. Most likely they would have to pay for mold remediation, as well as any repairs (like I said, you will probably have to cut drywall out to find the source).

  • Assuming you've had it looked at and are staying there, once you've removed the mould it may be a good idea to dehumidify the closet and use it for less perishable stuff. I lost an expensive coat to a similar issue in a rented house many years ago - the mould stains just wouldn't come out. – Chris H Apr 28 '20 at 8:09

First of all, you should probably contact a mold abatement contractor. Not only should they be able to remove the existing mold, they should be able to identify its cause as well.

Then you may need to consult an attorney since from what you've said, this doesn't seem to be a one-shot deal in your unit but a systemic problem likely due to defective materials and/or workmanship. So the builder may be liable and the city, who presumably inspected this work, may be liable too.

But it certainly doesn't sound like a DIY project. Note also that it may not be safe for you to continue to live there until it's resolved. I'd take the advice of the mold contractor on that.

    With mold abatement companies it would be in your best interest to obtain several opinions/quotes. – Platinum Goose Apr 28 '20 at 12:50

First, since it is new construction, you shouldn't need to DIY it.

Second, there can be many causes of mold, but you need a source of moisture and generally temperatures over 80F.

Missing vapor barrier (and probably insulation) - especially if overhang is <2ft.

  • common in corners of buildings that use external foamboard insulation as a sheathing, but plywood on corners to meet code - if its in a corner, it may be the culprit. If you were air conditioning the space it should stay cool enough to minimize mold growth even with the closet door shut as long as there was some insulation.
  • improperly positioned sprinkler systems can exacerbate this problem

Roof leak anywhere on that corner half of the house

  • Roof leaks around ridges and valleys can run along rafters and ventilation to end up far away from the source making them difficult to track down.

Vent from dryer or bathroom not fully exhausted outside - allowing warm damp air to condense in the floor/ceiling/wall cavities.

  • sometimes a builder will leave the exhaust duct in the ceiling, intending to connect it later, but forget or it just gets disconnected.

Slow water leak or bad tiling.

  • If a shower or other water source is on the other side of the wall it is possible that a water pipe or drain pipe is leaking. Its also possible that the tile in a shower was placed on an inappropriate base that allows water to permeate.

Below grade ground water seepage

  • if it is in a basement, the water barrier(s) may be broken (or nonexistent) but is less likely to grow mold that quickly

Take pictures/video for documentation.

Add Borax to bleach (bleach only works on the surface) to clean off the mold.

Keep the door open with air circulation to allow moisture to dry out and the temperature to be low enough to inhibit mold growth (<80F for most molds).

Contact builder to arrange warranty repairs. If they don't respond in a timely manner, ask them where to send legal documents.

Focusing on immediate remedies here which bridge and mitigate the issue until the probably underlying construction defect is fixed.

The main reason for mold is condensation inside, usually on badly insulated outside walls in badly ventilated places (behind furniture, or in your closet).

The mold buildup can be prevented by the following measures:

  • Increasing the wall's inside temperature, which is what the constructor must do by improving the insulation.
  • Decreasing the humidity of the air inside. Absolute humidity of the inside air is usually higher than that of the outside air because human activities like breathing, sweating, cooking and drying clothes add moisture to the air. The relative humidity is often low especially when a room is heated; but the air next to a cold wall is cooled down below the dew point because cold air can carry less water vapor. Avoid the activities you can avoid, for example do not cook your beans for half a day on the stove. (But do continue breathing ;-).)
  • Improve ventilation of the area. This is a double-edged sword though because new inside air also transports new moisture to the molding area. Best would be to ventilate the closet with outside air which is drier in absolute terms. Sealing the closet door but providing some air exchange with the outside, e.g. through a vent, would be optimal.
  • Actively decrease the moisture of the inside air by airing the space out frequently. Ventilating will transport the moisture produced by human activities to the outside.
  • Use an anti moisture agent like DampRid in the closet. This is only a sensible measure if the air exchange with the rest of the apartment is reduced; otherwise air from the apartment will transport fresh moisture into the closet so that the agent is used up too quickly. If you access the closet frequently it won't work well. I would also try to seal the closet door(s) as well as possible.
  • UV light kills germs, including fungi and their spores. You can install a UV light source in the closet and run it for some time every day. Of course it only works if it can reach the moist places. UV light damages colors and materials over time, so shield delicate items from the light (a plastic foil, even transparent, should suffice).

UN Criticizes Sudanese Authorities’ Failure to Stop West Darfur Violence

GENEVA – The U.N. human rights office is urging Sudanese authorities to speed up the deployment of security forces to West Darfur, in an effort to protect civilians from ethnic and tribal clashes in the region.

The latest resurgence of violence nearly one week ago has left more than 130 people dead and more than 200 injured, with thousands forced to flee their homes.

This is the third eruption between Masalit and Arab tribes since former Sudanese dictator Omar-al-Bashir was ousted and a transitional government took power in April 2019.

Marta Hurtado, spokeswoman for the U.N. human rights office, says her agency is appalled by the carnage and disturbed by authorities’ slow progress in holding the perpetrators of the violence accountable.

“Similar to previous situations of violence in Al Geneina, the authorities failed to stop the clashes despite a robust security force presence in the town,” she said. “We urge the authorities to fully uphold their role of protection for the population without discrimination. In this regard, we call on the government of Sudan to accelerate the implementation of the National Plan for the Protection of Civilians.”

Clashes over land and access to water resources have been going on for decades between the Masalit, who are mainly farmers, and the Arab herder tribes. The United Nations estimates the war in Darfur that broke out in 2003 killed some 300,000 people and displaced 2.7 million.

Hurtado says all tribes responsible for violence in Darfur must be disarmed and the state must maintain order and ensure the rule of law. This, she says, means authorities must prevent armed civilians from taking the law into their own hands.

“We acknowledge that, after the latest clashes, the authorities have taken steps to contain the situation in the area,” she said. “We also welcome the government’s commitment to addressing the root causes of the violence, especially disputes over land, pasture and water resources — disputes that are at the heart of the entrenched tribal divisions.”

The human rights office is calling for an independent, impartial and thorough investigation into the acts of violence. It says effective accountability for crimes and justice for the victims will pave the way for reconciliation and lasting peace.

    Client Testimonials and Reviews

    “David is one of the most polished, even tempered attorneys I’ve ever met. I was the defendant on a spurious criminal case and he carefully dissected each unsubstantiated allegation and was able to refute the basis for the charge itself (which was the intent to commit a crime). I have to say that he really made the prosecuting attorney look foolish by carefully researching and laying out the facts combined with his patient, even tempered demeanor. I also appreciated the fact that he knew the behind the scenes political motivations for why the prosecution in the D.A.’s office acted so illogically-he knows these people and their work environment, so he was able to use this to craft a winning strategy to get my case dropped.”
    J.B., charged with Felony
    “David is a consummate professional. Through a normal background check I found out I had a very old warrant, I attempted to call the county and they would’t even talk to me. It could have cost me my job. I contacted David (one of the challenges is I live 500 miles away); and he secured a dismissal the next day, saving my career. He cut right through the red tape. I’d highly recommend David to anyone!”
    R.B., charged with Misdemeanor
    “I highly recommend criminal defense attorney David Nachtigall. While he represented my son, David consistently displayed a calm and professional demeanor, careful attention to detail, and thoroughly researched every aspect of a very complex and challenging criminal case. His ability to deduct the truth was commendable despite the complainants who kept changing their story. I am thankful we had David on our side. His previous experience working in the DA’s office was an advantage in understanding how the courts worked. I especially appreciated his compassion to stay in touch with us and that he was easily reachable when we had questions. If you need an attorney that will truly listen and fight for you, I recommend David Nachtigall.”
    P.T., parent of child charged with Felony
    “David Nachtigall is a true professional. He handled my case (a second degree felony) with such expertise that the charges were dropped. His experience as a former prosecutor proved to be a tremendous asset. He kept me well informed and provided much needed personal support. I highly recommend David for any legal need you may have.”
    P.S., client charged with Felony
    “I was recently charged with assault on a peace officer which is a felon charge. I have never been in trouble with the law in my life. I was raised in a strict catholic house I was at the wrong place at the wrong time. I hired David after dealing with a bad lawyer. He picked up the slack with no problem. David did everything in his power to get the charges dropped. I left with a misdemeanor charge and 6 months probation. David answered ALL of my phone calls & emails. He showed up to every court setting and didn’t send anyone for him. I would highly recommend David to anyone.”
    J.U., client charged with Felony
    “David Nachtigall was my attorney for a DWI that I received in December of 2013. He really did a great job on my case. He was always very polite, prompt, and diligent when dealing with any questions that I had and he always took the correct steps to accomplish our desired outcome. Even though my case was stacked against me, he still was able to negotiate a DWI Pre-trial Intervention plea (which was the best and most realistic outcome considering the circumstances). Just to make things clear, the deal I received is not one that is easily ascertained. In fact, it took two tries to receive it. However, thanks to Mr. Nachtigall’s hard work and persistence, the deal went through. He never kept me in the dark about anything in reference to my case, he was not difficult to contact, and he always returned my phone calls as soon as possible or as soon as he had an answer to any question I asked (all of which are increasingly rare qualities in a busy lawyer). I can’t thank him enough for his help, and I would recommend David Nachtigall to anyone in need of a great, hard-working lawyer who knows how to get things done efficiently and effectively.”
    J.C., client charged with Misdemeanor
    “I was recently traveling on business in Houston and was caught with a tiny amount marijuana. All it takes in Texas is half a joint and you are in a world of hurt. Dumb mistake on my part. Let me be the first to advise everyone in a similar situation, you will need strong representation. The Houston court system is beyond challenging and unbelievably confusing. What I thought was no big deal could’ve meant losing my license, probation, and possibly more jail time. Typically people hate attorneys, David saved me in a huge way. He treated me like a friend and always kept me posted on the status of my case. He was willing to work with me due to my work schedule and he came to his office, before it even opened, to meet me. Because of his experience and persistence my case was dropped. I am so thankful I found him and would highly recommend his service. Trust me, you will not be disappointed.”
    J.W., client charged with Misdemeanor
    “Within my industry I consult with many lawyers and whilst on a business trip to Houston I required legal counsel and David was recommended to me. Initially David’s age surprised me; as it did not reflect his wealth of experience, local contacts and immediate control that he took of my case and me. David promptly providing sound, logical and concise legal counsel which demonstrating a comprehensive understanding of the local system and the law. David has great integrity and a supreme confidence born from experience. A quiet man but with a firm, resolute character that enabled a professional court demeanour that when coupled with his succinct legal strategy provided for a most successful conclusion in court – Thank you David. I vouch for and strongly recommend David services, he is great lawyer.”
    J.G., client charged with Misdemeanor
    “David was the first and only person I considered calling for legal advice for a friend in an unusual and complicated situation. His advice was spot-on accurate and the best solution. David is not only one of the smartest lawyers I know but he also has a unique grasp of the nuances involved in working with different personalities and negotiating on behalf of them. He can quickly synthesize various outcomes and options into a well-defined solution. He does it all with integrity, clarity and confidence that I’d want representing myself or a loved one.”
    B.S., client under Felony Investigation
    “Mr. Nachtigall is an exemplary attorney. Overall, he was always responsive to the various amount of questions I had, also he kept me informed on how things were looking during my case. I have spoken to plenty of attorneys, but Mr. Nachtigall seemed to stand out for his sincerity, his willing to make your case his responsibility and maintaining a positive attitude that seem to be hard to find nowadays.”
    A.R., client charged with Felony
    “David went above and beyond to help me in defense of a DWI charge. With his background as a prosecutor, he already knew the ins and outs of navigating through the process and was able to get me a better deal than I otherwise would have received. His hard work, open communication, dedication and intelligence are all very valuable for anyone in an unfortunate situation like I was. I couldn’t be more pleased with his representation and would definitely recommend him to anyone considering hiring an attorney.”
