4 reasons why you can’t afford not to do research
July 29, 2020
- Product Development
You can’t build a house on sand.
Similarly, you can’t build a great digital product or strategy without truly understanding the people you are designing for.
Audience or user research is an essential task that identifies your audience and helps you understand their needs, emotions and pains. This enables you to find the opportunities that will deliver real value for the people you’re building for.
Yet oddly enough, it’s the first step that many skip in the rush to build that app, that product, that business that you’ve dreamed about and are sure is going to be the next big thing.
Over the years, we’ve taken on user and audience research for clients of all shapes and sizes. It might feel like you can’t afford to do user research, here are 4 compelling reasons why you can’t afford not to.
1. You can’t rely on subject matter experts alone
A subject matter expert (also known as SME) is someone who has a deep understanding of a product, process or technology.
When we’re in over our heads with a unique project, we listen to SMEs to leverage their expertise to solve complex problems and provide valuable insight. However, although we value SME wisdom, we always place greater worth on the opinions of another party —the audience.
Every product ultimately exists for its audience (and not the client). So how the product makes them feel, act and react is what matters most at the end of the day.
That’s why iterative research is so crucial.
Take for example…
Our work with Desirebull.
We were creating the first Tinder for bulls. It was a first-of-its-kind decision making tool for cattle breeders that involved simplifying complex genetic data into a farmer-friendly interface.
We wanted to come up with a new interesting way to visualise important data. So initially, we worked closely with genetics experts to come up with some initial concepts. However, when we sat down with breeders, we soon discovered that they didn’t want new. They were already comfortable with what they were used to, and weren’t keen on learning a whole new visual language.
What we originally thought was ‘well designed’ we realised simply didn’t click. User testing pushed us to rework our designs to create something that was much better understood by farmers.
2. What you think is valuable might not be
How many times have you thought you knew what was best for someone, only to figure out that you were way off? Like when you give a child a new toy, but they’re only interested in the box.
Sometimes what we think is valuable in a product, might not be for its recipient. That’s why research is vital. Research doesn’t just improve a product, it determines it.
Take for example…
The CropCount app.
CropCount is a mobile app we created that uses satellite imagery and GPS technology to help avocado farmers accurately forecast their yield. When we initially interviewed the farmers, we thought they wanted help accurately calculating their yield to help with their logistics and supply chain fulfilment. Makes sense right?
But, as we continued to dig deeper we discovered what was more useful and therefore important to them was actually maximising their yield. This changed the entire product design. If we had gone with what our client and our initial research deemed ‘right’, the app would’ve turned out very wrong.
3. People say things differently to what they actually do
Have you ever filled out a doctor’s form and fudged the numbers a little to say you exercise more or drink less than you actually do?
People are always trying to present their best side and best case future scenario. This phenomenon is known as hypothetical bias, whereby people tell the honest truth, although what they say may not necessarily match up with their eventual actions.
Reality is often different to what is said, stressing once more, that research takes skill, understanding and experience.
Take for example…
We asked our farmers what device to target, mobile or iPad. At first, almost everyone said the app definitely needed to be on their phone. But, when we trialled it in the field, we found that frequent incoming calls continually interrupted the flow of work.
Observation trumped what users originally said and revealed that tablets were actually a more important device for us to target. Budgets don’t always allow observational research, so if you have to rely on asking questions you want to make sure you are asking the right ones. If you can’t do observational research, you can instead ask people to tell you how they currently behave through real examples.
Take that hypothetical bias example above, instead of asking ‘How much exercise would you normally do each week?’ you are likely to get a more accurate understanding by asking ‘Last week, how many times did you exercise? Can you describe what you did and for how long’.
4. It’s crucial to understand context and emotion
Sometimes when conducting audience research, we tend to see our audiences as just ‘users’, and forget that they are people.
A holistic approach to understanding the people your product is serving is key to understanding not only the big picture, but the whole picture.
Context, nuance and emotion are all things that can be missed when you don’t do the right research, or forgo it entirely.
Take for example…
How we approached our research for the NDIS. The NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) is the government scheme set up to support Aussies living with disabilities.
We took an extremely empathetic approach to our research, sitting down with participants, stakeholders and advocacy groups. It was through this approach that we were able to gain a deeper understanding of what people needed, and develop an effective marketing strategy founded on genuine empathy.
Our client was appreciative of the valuable research we gathered as the insights generated painted a deep understanding of their audience that they could draw on for all future communication and projects.
Research might seem tedious, time-consuming and downright boring at times. However, if you can get into the habit of conducting research that:
- Distills the true motivations of your audience (and not subject experts)
- Determines what your audience, not you, deems important
- Caters for potential hypothetical bias
- And takes context and human emotion into consideration
You will give yourself the best chance of creating a digital product that people will actually want to use and share.

Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis thus form the two legs of the carbon cycle in which carbon is cycled back and forth between the atmosphere and the biosphere.
In lipid metabolism the oxidation of the fatty acid chains results in the formation of two-carbon atom (acetyl) fragments which then pass through Krebs cycle.
The carbon atom is then transfered through the entire cycle again.
Large quantities of carbon pass between the atmosphere and biosphere on short time-scales: the removal of atmospheric carbon occurs during photosynthesis, following the reaction CO2 + H2O = CH2O + O2, while most carbon leaves the biosphere through respiration, a reversal of the previous reaction in which an amount of energy equivalent to that absorbed during photosynthesis is released as heat. When oxygen is present, aerobic respiration occurs, which releases carbon dioxide into the surrounding air or water. Otherwise, anaerobic respiration occurs and releases methane into the surrounding environment, which eventually makes its way into the atmosphere or hydrosphere.
It takes a carbon atom one to five years to travel the short cycle
This thermostat works over a few hundred thousand years, as part of the slow carbon cycle. This means that for shorter time periods—tens to a hundred thousand years—the temperature of Earth can vary. And, in fact, Earth swings between ice ages and warmer interglacial periods on these time scales. Parts of the carbon cycle may even amplify these short-term temperature changes.
of years for a carbon atom to go through the long cycle.
The carbon cycle is of interest to understanding climate because it includes two of the most important greenhouse gases: carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). Most atmospheric carbon is in the form of CO2, while CH4 is present only in trace concentrations. Because CO2 is chemically inert, it is relatively well mixed within the atmosphere away from forest canopies, whereas CH4 is chemically active and is removed quickly from the atmosphere through oxidation to CO2 and water. The overall atmospheric concentration of these greenhouse gases has increased during the past century and contributed to global warming.
Carbon atoms are fixed in the process of Calvin cycle to ..
Students will take on the role of a carbon atom and record which reservoirs in the carbon cycle they visit. They will compare and contrast their trip with those of their classmates to discover information about sources and sinks, and residence times of the different reservoirs. Ocean processes are highlighted to allow the educator to define the biological pump and explain its importance to climate.
What happens to carbon atoms in photosynthesis
There is a continuous two-way flow of carbon between the organic and inorganic forms. Inorganic carbon is in an state which is to organic carbon during .

text: Monica has decided to go with “Everything to Me” as the official lead single off her new album “Still Standing”, which will be released on March 9th. I absolutely think this is a very bad choice for a FIRST single. The song just doesn’t have that “POW” that I’m looking for. Maybe a 3rd or 4th single or just leave it an album cut at that. I think she sounds great vocally and it’s aÂ really goodÂ song, but not for a first single. I sincerely hope her & the label change their minds ASAP. If we screw this up with the 1st single, Monica may never get the shine she deserves. Thoughts?

The car in happier times
I own a Maruti 800 car which I like to maintain, the first owners of the car were a little careless which caused the car to rust at a few places, but ever since I have got the car I have tried to maintain it well. One of the most important things to maintaining a car well is of course good servicing from an Authorised Service Center.
If you search around the internet, you realise that Maruti Service Masters is supposed to be the best (and the most expensive) service centre in New Delhi. I took a day off as there is a lot of rush on weekends and was off to their service centre. The 1st time I used them they had messed up the butterfly valves in my engine, at that time I thought it might be an exception to the kind of service they offer.
At the service center, I noticed a distinct lack of concern for the customer, they get a lot of customers due to their name so do not need to take customer delight seriously.The reception person was more interested in passing the blame rather than assigning a SA and pointed me to a senior who told me they are short of staff. In the middle of the week ? I waited for half an hour before a service advisor came out and actually took down my problems.
He advised some changes, one of them un-necessary, he recommended the change of the water pump which I agreed to as he said it would lead to better fuel efficiency and smoother performance. The car servicing estimate came out to Rs. 11000 , which is pretty much near the resale value of the 14 year old car, but it being my first ever car I agreed to the uber expensive service with the assurance that engine work be carried out by an experienced mechanic who understands the old Japanese carburettor engines.
The service took one whole day and next day when I came the car was dirty from the outside, while I made payments, the car was wiped once more and cleaned for outer appearance.
Here is where it went downhill for me:
1. The service advisor insisted on a blank feedback card, thinking at that time that he had done an impeccable job, I agreed and gave him the blank feedback form which he literally snatched from my hands. He had given me a test drive.
2. On reaching home, I rolled up the windows and saw major brown dust on the windows, I didn’t feel it was worth the concern and wiped it myself.
3. After 2 days I took out the car and noticed engine oil underneath the car and lots of it. I called the service advisor and asked him what I should do, his response was to bring the car on a weekday. He did not offer to get it collected from my home or to service it on a weekend. He said there is too much rush on weekends.
4. The next day I went to college , at the college parking I noticed a super large amount of engine oil leakage, scared, I came back home early and stopped using the car so as not to cause engine damage. Also the car was giving blue smoke on cold starts.
5. Angry, I wrote 2 emails to Maruti to which I got automated responses, I decided to get the engine fixed outside the MSM as engine oil was low and I couldn’t go to their workshop with a car low on engine oil and leaking it steadily. The same day the customer care lady called me, she was apologetic, +1 to MSM here but she couldn’t really help me, promised to get back to me.
6. She didn’t get back for 7 more days, I got the timing seal issue fixed and paid 900 to the local garage to repair the problem + cost of engine oil. The blue smoke problem has persisted. She called again after 7 days and again apologised but didn’t offer to do anything, did ask me to choose MSM for my next service. I told her I would never like to visit them again.
7. I emailed Maruti and asked for a fresh feedback form to incorporate the low level of service given to me. I got no response. I even told them about blank feedback being collected, no response to that too. 3-4 days later, dad got a call from the service advisor, he gave him my number, I got the call during class and was unable to pick it up. So the grand total of 1 missed call was received by me.
8. The blue smoke at cold start issue was discussed with an engineer at Maruti (who prefers to remain anonymous), he says the MSM people probably ruptured a valve seal,
This causes engine oil to leak overnight and when I do a cold start, I see blue smoke. He told me that complaints are a regular feature at MSM and they cant handle the huge rush. Most complaints are swept under the carpet.
He told me the timing seal issue was a direct consequence of bad workmanship during water pump change.
I have decided to take things to a logical conclusion, I will keep contacting Maruti till they accept that the levels of service are actually below par at Maruti Service Masters Delhi and I have asked for them to repair my car’s blue smoke issue at another Authorised Service Center free of cost.
Till then, let this serve as a warning to anyone looking to get their car serviced at Maruti Service Masters Okhla, they seem good, but very little accountability. One expects this from them but when the company also ignores customer feedback, you know its a problem.

Not too far from now, we’ll be part of a fantastic blog tour for Lauren Skidmore’s upcoming book, What is Lost, the sequel to What is Hidden. I got the chance to read What is Hidden when it came out last year. This girl has been busy. I’d know because we were actually friends before she was famous, you know.
What really impressed me about her first novel was her superb world-building skills. The book itself takes place in a Renaissance Italy setting where everyone’s donning the masquerade masks. Everyone knew their place based on the color and elaboration of the mask. The setting surrounding her cast of characters was fun to see. It’s a kind of place you want to visit, you know?
I’m most intrigued about reading What is Lost, mainly because of how Skidmore plans to link her two works. She plans to follow the villain as a main character on his own journey, as it were. Should be interesting.
We just wanted to give you a heads up about our part in this blog tour so you can read her first book first so my review of the second book makes more sense.
The blog tour will take place in March, so watch out for us on March 22nd. Now you can see just how ridiculous my excitement is.
What would you like for me to add in my review? Any questions?

As of April 30, the Anti-Terrorist Operation in Donbas has officially been replaced by the Joint Forces Operation (JFO).
The format change of the Anti-Terrorist Operation to the Joint Forces Operation is provided by the law on Donbas reintegration. According to the law, the Joint Operation Headquarters is the main HQ in the Donbas conflict zone. Read about the main differences between the two operations.
On April 30, the press service of the headquarters of the Anti-Terrorist Operation (ATO) stops its work due to this change. Ukraine’s President Petro Poroshenko declared that the Anti-Terror Operation in Donbas is completed. signed order on the start of Joint Forces Operation the same day.
Serhiy Nayev, the Joint Force Commander during the briefing at Donetsk Regional Civil-Military Administration said that the escalation in Donbas Conflict zone due to the beginning of Joint Forces Operation (JFO) is not predicted. Nayev also noted that the significant efforts will aim to strengthen the positions of Ukraine's Armed Forces at the contact line.
The military action’s nature in the combat area has not changed much over the week; Russian militants and regular troops of the Russian army have been landing attacks on positions of Ukrainian warriors and the residential quarters.
On Monday, the police of Donetsk region reported that over the first four months of this year, they detained 86 fighters of the local pro-Russian armed units. Ukraine’s State Security Service, the SBU, counted the casualties among its agents over four years of the ongoing conflict; meanwhile, Joint Force Commander said that the frequency of inspections at checkpoints in Donbas will drop. On Wednesday, Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council (NSDC) imposed personal economic sanctions against legal and physical entities involved in the Russian aggression against Ukraine.
On May 3, Head of OSCE SMM in Ukraine Ertugrul Apakan claimed that constant non-observing of the Minsk Agreements threatens the work of the Donetsk Filtration Station and puts the civilians at risk. According to him, almost 100 violations of the ceasefire were observed on May 2 near the Donetsk Filtration Station.
Another case of the use of a laser weapon is observed in Donbas. Arsen Avakov, Ukraine's interior minister reported this at Friday briefing in Kyiv. 'One of our fighters sustained injuries due to the use of laser weaponry, which damages the retina. It concerns, above all, the border guards who observe the situation, using respective equipment all the time. It's not the first time that they used this weapon against fighters of the State Border Guard and the National Guard of Ukraine. We are now considering the countermeasures, such as filters, protective goggles et cetera, but the fact remains - the Russian aggressors have been using a new kind of weapon against us,' Avakov said. The minister added that Ukraine intends to raise the issue of using laser weapons on the international level.
On April 30, Ukrainian border guards marked the Border Guard Day – for the first time since the date of this professional holiday was changed. Previously, it was celebrated on May 28. The change took place due to the presidential decree – to mark the centenary of Ukraine’s Border Guard, originally created in 1918. Ukrainian border guards paid a tough price for their active part in the current military conflict in Donbas; 70 of them have perished since the hostilities began in April 2014.
One of the most discussed news this week appears to be the one about the Javelins, the U.S. anti-tank missile launchers, reaching Ukraine. This actually happened several weeks ago; the media and the U.S. government confirmed this. On the other hand, the army has not yet officially adopted the new equipment, Joint Force Commander said. Since the beginning of Russia's military aggression in the spring of 2014, Ukraine has been negotiating with the United States on the supply of lethal weapons. Previously, Washington supplied Kyiv with only non-lethal assistance (including armored Humvee cars, RQ-11B Raven drones and counterbattery radars) and helped in the training of Ukrainian servicemen.
The US defense budget for 2018 presupposes the allocation of $ 350 million to Ukraine for enhancing security and defense, including the use of lethal weapons. In March this year, the U.S. State Department made a decision on the sale of anti-tank missile systems to Ukraine.
On May 3, the fire occurred at the armament depot in Balakliya, Kharkiv region. According to the Defense Ministry, the fire tank ran over some explosive device during the execution of the technical works. Also, a series of powerful blasts took place at the same depot on March 23, 2017.
As of 5 p.m, the overall area of the fire at the arsenal made some 35 hectares. 37 vehicles and 150 men had been putting out the fire at the military infrastructure object. Low-intensity blasts and small ignition sites were observed at the end of May 3.
As of 8 a.m. on May 4, the minor ignition sites were almost extinguished. The explosions have ceased as of 11 a.m. on May 4 as Emergency Service of Ukraine reported. The restriction for the movement of the vehicles around Balakliya was lifted. The evacuated population returned to homes.
Also, the Commander of the armament of the Armed Forces of Ukraine claimed that the fire at Balakliya armament depot could be caused by the falling of the spark of the fire tank’s exhaust pipe.
Odesa law enforcers checked the territory of the Kulikove Field (a historical area of Odesa with the House of Trade Unions, where the May 2 tragedy happened back in 2014) for explosives and enforced patrolling due to the fourth anniversary of the tragedy in Odesa.
Later it was reported that the fight took place near the entrance to the Kulikove Field. The police detained three partakers of the brawl and took them to the district department. According to this incident the criminal proceeding due to the slight intentional bodily harm was opened.
Law enforcers also opened a criminal investigation for violation of the racial and national equality of rights, a case of which occurred in Odesa, southern Ukraine on May 2. “Public anti-Semitic appeals in Ukraine are unacceptable,” Ukraine’s Interior Minister said commenting on the incident.
As we reported earlier, on May 2, 2014, the severest clashes took place in 2014 in Odesa. Forty-six pro-Russian protesters were killed and over 200 people were injured during a confrontation with pro-Ukrainian unity protesters at the Trade Unions House.
As for another tragedy that happened in Ukraine in 1932-33, New York adopted a resolution on recognition of Holodomor as genocide. It was noted that as of May 2, nine U.S. states recognized Holodomor in Ukraine a genocide. These states are Washington, Wisconsin, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Oregon and Pennsylvania.
Earlier, in March 2018, Massachusetts recognized Holodomor of 1932-1933 in Ukraine a genocide of Ukrainian nation.
Ukrainian MP Mustafa Nayem was beaten in the center of Kyiv on Bessarabska Square after a conflict on the road on April 30. He was hospitalized with jaw fracture. Three of four attackers were detained the same day and accused of hooliganism. Couple days later the surveillance video of the attack appeared online. The fourth participant of the conflict flew to Baku (Azerbaijan) 2 hours after the incident. He faces 4 years of imprisonment.
In their commentary to 112.ua, the Head of Kyiv police told about the fifth attacker, and why one of the perpetrators managed to escape from the country.

Carrier adds chilled water optimiser6th August 2017
USA: Carrier has extended its ChillerVu plant control system to include a chilled water system optimiser.
The new optimiser is said to extend control efficiencies beyond the chiller plant and improves the efficiency of the entire chilled water system, including air handling units, fan coils, and other chilled water distribution equipment. Based on laboratory and field tests, Carrier maintains that adding the optimiser to a building’s chilled water system can yield energy savings in the range of 3% to 15% compared to non-optimized systems.
The new optimiser solution consists of an i-Vu controller, a factory-engineered, control algorithm, and a pre-configured energy dashboard for the i-Vu building automation system that allows building managers to monitor and analyse the energy performance of their system in real-time. Once installed, the optimiser is said to intelligently manage the chiller plant’s chilled water and condenser water supply temperature set points to provide optimal energy usage, all while maintaining occupant comfort in the building.
The new optimiser is the latest product to be added to Carrier’s line of chiller solutions. In addition to high-efficiency chillers with factory integrated i-Vu controls, Carrier also offers the Carrier ChillerVu plant system manager, which is said to provide efficient, automatic control over all aspects of a chiller plant, coordinating the control of chillers, pumps and towers into a finely tuned, cohesive system. The new optimiser can then be added as an overlay on top of the ChillerVu manager, adding full system optimisation to the entire chilled water production and distribution system. Plants with Carrier’s 19, 23 and 30 series chillers are fully supported, as are plants with non-Carrier chillers.
The new optimiser is also said to interface seamlessly with existing plant controls and equipment, regardless of brand. Because the optimiser works with the equipment and controls already in place, costly system upgrades, pre-installation plant analysis and system modelling are not required prior to deployment.
It can also be used on plants of varying size, up to a maximum of eight chillers, and can be configured to optimise the chilled water side alone, the condenser water side alone, or both, depending on the building’s needs. In addition, the optimiser’s self-learning algorithm adapts to changes in environmental conditions or equipment performance, helping to optimise energy savings and occupant comfort over varying equipment and environmental profiles. The optimiser is also scalable, allowing additional chilled water distribution equipment to be added easily.

Earlier this month, ELEVATION RHYTHM announced their debut album Growing Pains is set to release April 1st. Leading up to its release, the group dropped its first single, “Fake Love,” offering the much-needed message of going back to what real love is, to truly know that we have a God who loves us for the essence of who we are. Following in its steps is the project’s title track, out today. Listen to “Growing Pains” here.
The central message of “Growing Pains” really unlocks the overarching theme of the entire twelve-song album. “I think people turn to music when they’re going through certain seasons,” explains Josh Holiday, who produced the album alongside Elevation Church pastor and executive producer Steven Furtick. “Either they need to hear something that validates how they feel, or they need to hear that things are going to be better. I know how important music is to people, and I hope with this album, they walk away feeling like God’s got them, and everything’s going to be OK.”
With youth and young adults at the forefront of their mission, ELEVATION RHYTHM’s sonic backdrop intentionally aims to keep up with the changing times, which is why the group experiments with a variety of bold sounds and textures, constantly blurring genre lines. Incorporating elements of pop, rock, worship, and hip-hop, Growing Pains is buoyed by the youthful energy found in its diversity.
“I think, sonically, RHYTHM is always going to be different,” contends Holiday. “Two years from now, RHYTHM won’t sound like it sounds now because the sounds of the next generation are always evolving.” To find out more about ELEVATION RHYTHM’s debut album, click on the bio tab below.
The group will share their songs live when they join Elevation Worship along with Pastor Steven Furtick on the spring arena tour Elevation Nights. Kicking off April 26 in Chicago, they will bring the experience of Elevation Church to cities around the U.S. The tour will wrap in Boston on May 5. Tickets are on sale now – for further information visit ElevationNights.com.


Punjab CM defends dope testing on government staff
Chandigarh, July 9 : Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh on Monday defended his decision to order dope testing of government employees and police personnel, saying such tests were also conducted in the Army as a precautionary measure.
"The current situation in the state, where addicts were resorting to the use of concoctions due to scarcity and high price of drugs, had warranted such harsh steps," Singh said while speaking to media after the passing out parade at the Police Recruit Training Centre at Jahan Kelan in Hospiarpur district.
"The pressure mounted on the drug smugglers and mafia had choked the supply lines, forcing addicts to go for concoctions, which were resulting in instantaneous deaths."
He however, said that regarding the dope test for politicians and elected representatives, he would leave the decision to their conscience.
A few politicians and lawmakers have undergone the tests in the past week voluntarily after the state government ordered it for nearly 3 lakh government employees, including police personnel.


Ferguson's interim city manager is stepping down
Ferguson is back in the hunt for an interim city manager, after its current interim announced she is resigning to take a permanent job in Richmond Heights.
Pam Hylton has been the interim city manager sinceJohn Shaw resigned in March. Shaw’s departure came just after a Justice Department report that was critical of city operations before and during the unrest following the Aug. 9 police shooting that killed 18-year-old Michael Brown.
Hylton most recently had been Shaw’s assistant and had been with the Ferguson government for four years.
Hylton’s last day in Ferguson will be May 15. In her new job, she will be Richmond Heights’ assistant city manager.
“After much thought and discussion with my family, we determined this is the best decision for me at this time,’’ Hylton said in a statement. “…Ferguson is a great community and I am glad I was part of it.”
Her announcement comes just weeks after Ferguson voters elected three new members of the six-person city council.
Ferguson Mayor James Knowles praised Hylton, and said in a statement that her departure was a surprise. “We appreciate her contributions and accomplishments during her tenure here in Ferguson," the mayor said.
“But I have no doubt that the dedicated employees of the city of Ferguson will continue to provide great service to our residents in an efficient manner.”
The city now plans to hire a firm that specializes in interim staffing for municipal governments. The aim is to hire an interim city manager and an interim assistant.
A separate firm is to be hired to conduct a nationwide search for a new city manager.

Come be a ‘Wisdom Seeker’
The Wisdom Seekers book group will begin reading Awe: The New Science of Everyday Wonder and How It Can Transform You Life by Dacher Joseph Keltner, on Tuesday, April 16th.
“In Awe, Dacher Keltner presents a radical investigation and deeply personal inquiry into this elusive emotion. Revealing new research into how awe transforms our brains and bodies, alongside an examination of awe across history, culture, and within his own life during a period of grief, Keltner shows how cultivating awe in our everyday life leads us to appreciate what is most humane in our human nature. During a moment in which our world feels more divided than ever before, and more imperiled by crises of different kinds, we are greatly in need of awe.”
Participants in Wisdom Seekers obtain books from their local library or purchase books from sellers such as Barnes & Noble or Amazon or other sellers online. The group meets on Tuesday mornings from 10 to 11:30am via Zoom. All are welcome at any time. For more information and a Zoom link, please contact the Parish Office at 302-475-4688 or firstname.lastname@example.org.
All are welcome!

I'm 30 weeks today, and the past couple of weeks I have had to force myself to eat, and I even forget to eat a lot of the time. If my husband and I go out to lunch or dinner, I only manage to eat half of my meal at the very MOST. Now I eat about a third of my meal and I just can't eat. I had a lot of issues with morning sickness most of my pregnancy that aren't really there anymore. I'm only 4lbs or less over my pre-pregnancy starting weight, too. Luckily, my little guy is healthy and growing but it's like I can't eat, and I'm losing weight and gaining baby.
Anyone else having similar issues?

When did our immigration system start functioning like a charity to benefit third-world countries rather than America?
When did it become the case that the interests of foreigners should take precedent over those of American citizens?
It’s a peculiar thing. A massive wave of third-world immigration has been engulfing America for half a century, yet all American citizens hear about from the “lamestream” media is what a racist, intolerant country we have. As their thinking goes, if we don’t openly accept millions of individuals who have no desire to embrace the language, culture, and values that made America the greatest country in the history of the world, then we must be racists.

During a time of need, several companies, volunteers and organizations stepped up to help the tradeshow industry workforce, most of which have been out of work since last March due to the lockdowns. Freeman graciously opened up their facilities both days for a Pop-Up Food Drive, on Feb. 12 for packaging and on Feb. 13 for the drive-thru pick-up event. Everything went smoothly both days with a focus on following proper safety protocols as the “industry came together to aid their own.”
Anthony Bartolomeo (pictured left), VP of client solutions at Freeman, says he knows how much people are hurting in this industry and wanted to be a part of the outreach efforts. He adds that “it was important for all of us to come together and give back to the community, and obviously we see that happening here today.”
As to be expected, the food drive was well organized. Recipients pulled up to each of the four drive-thru stations and the items placed in their trunks were: 1) a box of dry goods provided by Three Square, which contained provisions like pasta, rice, oatmeal and canned goods, 2) eggs and bread, 3) milk and 4) a dinner for four bag that included apples, oranges, carrots, a pound of butter, four flan desserts, a dozen large flour tortillas and two pounds of meat.
“This event came together with a lot of great people from the events and tradeshow industry, and it’s pretty amazing to see everybody from all over our industry working together to help others in need,” says Stephanie Selesnick (pictured right), president of International Trade Information, Inc., in Las Vegas.
Steve Walker (pictured left), executive director at MGM Resorts International, agreed and says that the group started meeting several months ago as everything started shutting down here in Las Vegas. They traded ideas and raised money to help families in need and this [the food drive] is the culmination of it all.
Robert Tracy, member of IBEW Local 357, says he came to the aid of his brothers and sisters going through difficult times right now, trying to give them some sustenance to feed their families during this COVID situation, and to support each other and grow as a family.
Laura Sims (pictured right), Teamsters Local 631 Business Agent for the Convention Industry, says this was extremely important to her because there are so many people in need. “My people haven’t worked for eleven months and we’ve done several of these food distributions just to try to help people sustain until we can all get back to work, and we really miss each other,” she explains. She adds this was also an opportunity to check in and give each other hope.
A bit of fun was also part of the scheduled activities. Mark Kamp (pictured left), a.k.a. Marvelless Mark®, not only volunteered as an entertainer, he also helped out with some of the logistics. He says he cares so much for the Las Vegas community and tradeshow industry that he wanted to give back, make a difference and be present. He truly lives his motto to always be “Energetic. Engaging. Charismatic. Interactive” as many there said how energizing and lots of fun he was.
Jesus Hernandez, IBEW Local 357 member, learned of the event when he went to his union website and signed up. He says this was a good thing that will help his family; also that it was nice to be out, and he was very grateful to everyone for caring this much and putting the event together. Charles Geoffrion, an IATSE member, shared the same sentiments. He hasn’t worked in months and says this is a huge helping hand for his family of five.
Natalie Relf, Teamsters Local 631 member, said she’s trying to navigate her way through these difficult times, and it has been tough, but it’s really glad to see that her brothers and sisters are doing the best they can. Dawn Hayes, whose husband is also a Teamsters member, praised all the volunteers and says, “You are all a blessing and a Godsend for helping us and we really appreciate it.”
Allison Aiona, a former Freeman employee, is originally from Hawaii and is now living in Las Vegas with two children and an elderly parent. She emphasized how grateful she is and says that this was awesome and definitely helps. Aiona adds that she honestly didn’t know how this was going to go or what to expect but it was a nice experience that ran seamlessly.
Jen LaBruzza (pictured left), national sales manager at Classic Exhibits and EDPA Las Vegas chapter president, was the food drive lead organizer and logistics expert. She says, “Through generous donations from both individuals and companies we provided food assistance to over 200 families in the Las Vegas tradeshow and events industry.” When planning the drive, LaBruzza said, “Our chapter is well versed in the importance of food security with our annual food drive and we are EXTREMELY grateful for the opportunity to partner with other generous people in the live events industry to help our industry family here in Las Vegas. It’s about being able to show some love for those in our industry and say, ‘We haven’t forgotten about you.’ ”
The food drive is grateful to the following sponsors/supporters:

LVPP also endeavors to elevate and promote its members and electrical industry in the interest of higher stander of citizenship.

I’m just going to warn you before we go any further that if you make this you won’t be able to eat regular omelettes anymore. The first time we tasted the Alton Brown perfect omelette over a year ago we were immediately struck by the intense flavours that come through when you don’t cook the s*** out of your eggs. They are sublime. They’re smooth and custardy in the middle, providing the perfect environment to melt a bit of cheese or sprinkle some chopped herbs…but not too much! You don’t want to take away from the beautiful decadent custardy flavour of the eggs, which is perfect with just a sprinkle of salt as well.
It’s really more of a technique or preparation method than a recipe per se. Bogdan is the one who makes them in our household and I’ve requested his expertise for this post. He’s made perfect omelettes in a variety of ways over time. Some of our favourite “recipes” include goat cheese & chive, gruyere & ham, and straight up crumbled sheep’s milk feta on its own. All taste amazing in a perfect omelette and if there’s one truth to be gleaned it’s that when it comes to omelettes, less is always more.
The weekend after we had our first perfect omelette we had a brunch date with friends. We had a fairly late start to the day and all our favourite brunch places had 45+ minute waits, so we went to a greasy spoon. Someone in our party ordered an omelette. Bogdan and I weren’t omelette people to begin with. We never would have ordered one and we never made them at home. I for one just didn’t like the intense jumbled flavours in a normal omelette. They were always so full of stuff and sometimes I felt like that stuff just didn’t go with the taste of egg. That was until we had a perfect omelette. It changed everything. We were believers. It became a fixture in our lives, taking up residence between sunny side up and eggs benny in our at home brunch repertoire.
So, after this monumental egg related paradigm shift, you can imagine we were really eager to see the (as yet totally foreign) real life restaurant omelette to compare. We waited with bated breath for what seemed like a really long time. When our server started bringing our breakfasts two at a time we watched for the omelette. When it arrived at the table we did everything not to gasp at the grotesque bloated, burned, and beyond overcooked rubber dome on the plate. As a general rule, I try to avoid any meal that’s all the same colour. Not only was this omelette all one shade of slightly browned egg, but it was dome shaped and filled to the brim with all sorts of things. As it turns out, this particular diner’s house specialty was baked omelettes that puffed up into an inexplicably sturdy dome shape.
Bogdan and I looked at each other and knew we had been ruined for omelettes forever. Thanks Alton Brown.
So here are a few of the cardinal rules of making a perfect omelette
- A perfect omelette is taken off the heat way before it’s cooked because it continues to cook with the residual heat. If you remove it from the heat as soon as it solidifies, you’ve already overcooked it. Once you taste a perfect omelette you’ll understand that overcooking is the worst thing you can do to eggs.
- A perfect omelette isn’t filled to the brim. Less is always more. A little sprinkle of cheese, a few pinches of slivered ham, a dash of chopped chives. You don’t need anymore than that and believe me it will be flavourful. For this recipe we used maybe half an ounce (15 grams or about 1 TBSP) of feta.
- If you choose mediocre eggs you’ll get a mediocre omelette. There are other preparations using eggs that don’t necessarily need the best eggs but in this case, as with custard or hollandaise, the eggs are the star of the dish so you should really use cage free and ideally organic. Farmers market would be best. The yellower the yolk the better.
- 3 eggs
- Half an ounce (15 grams/ 1 TBSP) crumbled balkan sheep’s milk feta
- Unlimited butter
- Pinch of salt (optional)
Alton Brown’s Perfect Omelette with Balkan Sheep’s Milk Feta
- About 5-10 minutes before you start put your eggs in a bowl of warm water so they come to room temperature. Putting them in the pan cold could make them cook unevenly. Likewise, if your fillings are very cold they can also affect the cooking process so those should also be taken out in advance.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet (preferably 8 inches for 3 eggs according to Alton Brown and Antonia Lofaso) on medium heat. This step is really critical. Imagine your oven dial on a 1 – 10 scale, you want to aim for 6 – 6.5 Too hot and they’ll overcook, not hot enough you might have some difficulty sliding the finished omelette off the pan.
- Prepare everything you’ll need because the eggs will only be cooking for about a minute. You’ll need to set our your butter, cheese, herbs, meat, salt, a spatula and a plate. Depending how much stuff you need to prepare you might have to do this step before you preheat your pan.
- Crack the eggs one at a time into an empty bowl. Lightly whisk until incorporated. Normally you would add a pinch of salt here but if you’re using really salt cheese (taste your feta before) it might not be necessary.
- Butter the pan. If the butter browns your pan is too hot. If it doesn’t sizzle at all it’s too cold. You want it just warm enough so that when you drop the eggs in they’ll lightly sizzle.
- When you’re ready, pour the eggs into the pan then act fast. Set a timer if you need to so the next
- Using a silicone spatula scrape up the egg in middle of the pan so the cooked underside mixes with the uncooked top. Then pick up the skillet and gently swirl the egg around the edges (not high along the edges just over the existing egg).
- Put your skillet back on the burner and use your spatula to gently scrape off the edges and let them fall as they will towards the omelette. By this point there should only be a thin layer of uncooked eggs in the centre of your pan.
- Sprinkle on your filling in the very centre, trying not to get any on the outer edge of your omelette.
- Use your spatula to loosen the omelette around the edges.
- Tip the skillet towards you and fold the bottom 1/3 of the omelette (closest to you) inwards toward the centre of the omelette. Then turn the pan toward your plate and use your spatula to slide the omelette onto the plate folded side first, flipping the final 1/3 over as you do.
- Garnish with any herbs you’re using. Serve immediately. Seriously. There’s no time for decorum here. If you’re cooking for a group tell everyone to just eat their omelette as soon as they get it because waiting even 5 minutes will really impact the final product. These are particularly nice served with tomatoes or field greens in a light lemon vinaigrette. Perfect.

The owners of three lolly buds cannabis dispensaries in Spokane, Washington, could end up their workers with up to $300,000 in allegedly unpaid wages and overtime from the past three years.
The Washington State Department of Labor and Industries (L&I) received a complaint in January 2019, and investigators found the dispensaries’ parent company, Cannabis Green, only paid employees overtime if they worked more than 40 hours at one store, according to L&I.
Unable to reach a settlement, officials from L&I and the Washington State Attorney’s Office (AGO) filed a wage and hour-compliant suit on May 11 in Spokane County Superior Court, suing that state Officials said It was the first against a cannabis retailer in the state.
The complaint names Cannabis Green and majority owners Elizabeth and Todd Beczek, with Lovely Buds, Lovely Buds North and Lovey Buds Division as the three dispensaries where the alleged allegations are being investigated.
“Not paying their overtime wages and benefits is a period of wage theft,” Attorney General Bob Ferguson said in an L&I press release. All businesses must follow the law. I am proud to partner with the Washington State Department of Labor and Industry to ensure worker wages are protected.”
The three dispensaries listed opened in August 2014, February 2015, and June 2016, according to retail sales data from the Washington State Liquor and Hemp Board. The three stores combined recorded more than $10.7 million in total sales in 2021. Since its launch, the retail chain has posted more than $64.8 million in total sales through the end of 2021.
After the 2019 complaint, L&I claimed investigators found that employees worked more than 40 total hours at various Lovely Buds dispensaries without receiving overtime, and that sick leave was distributed in much the same way.
Lovely Buds initially provided some payroll records before trying to stop the investigation by taking the state to court in Spokane, but L&I won the case, paving the way for its investigation to continue, according to the press release.
“Our goal in this case and any other wage and hourly issue is simple: to get these employees to pay the wages and benefits they received,” L&I Director Joel Sachs said in the statement. “If these abuses continue, we will also work to change the way Cannabis Green operates so that future workers do not also fall victim to wage theft.”
Through last week’s complaints process, L&I and AGO officials aim to determine the number of company employees from 75 to 100, and how much wages and benefits they may be owed.

My Real Garden is no ordinary gardening book – it’s the first of its kind. It’s been written and photographed by over 100 gardeners ranging from children to first time gardeners, experienced gardeners and professionals from across the globe. Together they have created a vibrant and accessible book which shares their gardens and is full of tips, hacks and heart-warming stories that reflect how gardening became mental therapy for the nation during the summer 2020 Lockdown.
On a mission to inspire all, My Real Garden is an inclusive expression of what gardening should be today. It features front line workers who have used their plots to relax, parents who have turned their gardens into outside classrooms, hobby gardeners who are now planning a career change to horticulture and people with ill health that have experienced the healing power of plants. Within the 224 pages you’ll find make-do-and-mend ideas, ways to have fun in the garden and so much more – this is real life gardening bound and printed like never before.
So how did all these gardeners meet? They formed a community around RHS Chelsea Flower Show gold medal garden designer Ann-Marie Powell’s daily live Instagrams @myrealgarden.
In March 2020 Ann-Marie humbly revealed her garden on Instagram, confessing it was a far cry from a ‘show garden’. Her live Instagrams continued without fail for 100 days as she transformed her Hampshire plot. Her positivity and practical how-to advice inspired thousands of other real gardeners to join her with followers from the UK, and countries as far flung as New Zealand, USA and Ghana took comfort in whatever small patch of green space they had. She had successfully created a gardening community.
Launching the book on 23rd March 2021, exactly a year since lockdown began and symbolically the start of the new planting season, My Real Garden - the book captures the essence of this community. It’s written in their own words and curated by Ann-Marie and her garden writing friend Tamsin Westhorpe.
My Real Garden has been crowd-funded through advanced sales together with support from the gardening app, Candide, and British Garden Centres Group. Some of the profits will be donated to support the work of Greenfingers.

The Russian sculptor Antoine Pevsner (1886-1962) has long occupied a secure place in the annals of modernist art as one of the pioneer talents of the Constructivist movement that flourished in Russia in the years just before and after the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. With his better-known younger brother Naum Gabo, Pevsner published a Realistic Manifesto , as it was misleadingly called, in Moscow in 1920, that rejected figurative art and all forms of representation in sculpture in favor of open-space abstraction. This celebrated manifesto, one of the many such pronouncements that marked the tumultuous avant-garde art world in the first years of the Revolution, had actually been written by Gabo, but Pevsner signed on, thereby identifying his work with a minority faction in the early Soviet avant-garde that rejected the use of art for utilitarian and propaganda purposes.
Having made that fateful choice in favor of disinterested esthetics, it was inevitable that Gabo and Pevsner would sooner or later have to leave the Soviet Union. Gabo left for Berlin in 1922, Pevsner a year later, and from that point onward the brothers pursued distinctly separate careers. First in England and then for many years in the United States, Gabo became one of the best known modernist sculptors in the English-speaking world. Pevsner settled in France, where he acquired French nationality in 1930, and was better known in Europe. In 1948, the Museum of Modern Art devoted an exhibition to both, yet until now Pevsner’s work seems never to have been the subject of a solo exhibition in this country.
That is one reason why the exhibition called Antoine Pevsner: Drawings 1912-1956 , which is currently on view at the Peter Blum Gallery in SoHo, is an extraordinary event. With 120 drawings tracing the course of the artist’s development over a 40-year period, this is the kind of exhibition we would ordinarily expect to see in a major museum. Yet the interest here is not merely historical. The revelation here is one of artistic development we have never before been in a position to observe in such concrete and voluminous detail. The exhibition is thus, among much else, an important contribution to our understanding of the esthetic origins of Constructivist sculpture, which itself radically altered our conception of the nature of sculpture as an art.
It was central to the project of Constructivist sculpture to deconstruct traditional notions of sculptural mass by establishing space itself-so called “empty” space, or voids-as a material susceptible to the formal inventions of the sculptor’s imagination. In the pursuit of this radical transformation of sculptural esthetics, Cubism-especially the early Cubist sculpture of Picasso-was the crucial starting point. And it is indeed for the light they cast on Pevsner’s highly inventive variations of Cubism’s formal precedents that these drawings are most interesting. At almost every point in this development, the artist is attempting to declare his independence from the figurative origins of Cubism, and never quite succeeding, for it is another of the revelations of this exhibition that it establishes beyond doubt the figurative origins of even the most abstract of Pevsner’s sculptural achievements.
It is worth recalling in this connection that, unlike his brother Gabo, Pevsner was first of all a painter who was creating Cubist-based abstract paintings before he ever turned to the sculptural medium. Unlike Gabo, Pevsner was from the outset a gifted draftsman, one might even say a traditional draftsman, and it was through the medium of drawing-largely through the drawing of figures and heads-that he developed a vocabulary of abstract forms that lent themselves to a Constructivist idiom. He was by no means alone in this development. You can see a parallel development from Cubism to abstraction in the oeuvre of Kasimir Malevich and certain other votaries of the Russian avant-garde, but I know of no other sculptor of the period whose pursuit of this esthetic goal is so clearly documented in so many drawings of a high order of accomplishment.
Of high interest, too, in this exhibition is the sheer range of stylistic experimentation in Pevsner’s drawings long after he had established his reputation as an abstract sculptor in Paris. Cubism undoubtedly remained central to the bulk of these pursuits, yet the exhibition is full of surprising turns in very different directions. At times one is reminded of Oskar Schlemmer. There is an Expressionist phase in which Pevsner’s drawings of bizarre heads look like a preview of Francis Bacon, and there is even an amazing drawing, Standing Woman (1928), that evokes an uncanny anticipation of the drawings and sculptures that Alberto Giacometti began producing in the 1940’s.
The effect of all this is bound to be a significant revision in our thinking about Pevsner’s standing as a 20th-century modernist master. I have frankly never much cared for Pevsner’s later abstract sculpture, with its swirling forms and labyrinthine voids, but the next time I go to Paris I will certainly take a more serious look at it. (You have to go to Paris to see the major efforts.) Meanwhile, on the basis of these 120 drawings he has overnight become a far more interesting figure than ever before.
It is to be hoped, moreover, that this large collection of Pevsner’s drawings, which derive from a single private collection, will somehow remain intact. This is a collection of museum quality, and it will be fortunate for us if it eventually finds a home in one of our major museums. Meanwhile it remains on view at the Peter Blum gallery, 99 Wooster Street, through July 31.


MALEY IN NO DOUBT OF LYNX TURNING THINGS AROUND
Perth Lynx captain Anneli Maley has full faith in her team being able to regroup and make a run to the WNBL finals because of their connection and commitment with one another, with fixing up things defensively the focus.
The Lynx slipped outside of the WNBL top four with a 21-point home loss to the Bendigo Spirit on Saturday night which meant they have now lost five of the six matches since star point guard Aari McDonald suffered a knee injury.
While it’s been tough going on the win-loss front for the Lynx, Maley has never had any reason to question their commitment to each other and connection as a group. As a result she remains confident of breaking back into the WNBL top four in time for the finals.
When looking back on Saturday night’s loss to the Spirit and Maley credits Bendigo for playing better on the night, but the Lynx captain is confident of making the necessary mindset shift ahead of playing the Boomers in Melbourne on Wednesday.
“We weren’t good enough and we showed that we could do well at certain points in time, but they were better than us and played harder. We didn’t and it’s that simple,” Maley said.
“There are days where we aren’t as good as the other team and I don’t think we’re not capable of it, we’re capable of being amazing. But we didn’t string 40 minutes together and they have some really talented players, and they beat us.
“I guess it’s an easy fix for us and it’s just a mindset shift. We don’t need to train harder because we train really hard. We don’t need to spend more time together because our culture is really good, we have a brilliant culture and we all support each other.
“It’s more about a mindset shift and that’s something that is easily done and that’s for us to go away and change it, and make sure we change it in time to keep our finals hopes alive.”
The Lynx might have lost four of their past five matches and things aren’t quite going to plan after starting off the season winning eight of the first 11 games, but Maley is taking a view at the bigger picture.
As captain of the team and someone who shows maturity well beyond her years, Maley understands that things in everyone’s life away from the court can have an impact on their basketball, and that not everything is about making your shots or winning games.
In the big picture, Maley is proud of the way her Lynx teammates give their all for the Perth community and take seriously their commitment to who they represent.
Provided they are giving their all and can hold their heads high about the WA basketball community they represent, then Maley will rightfully always walk away standing tall no matter the result.
“There’s basketball and then there’s life, and people have things going on in their life but that’s no excuse for not showing up to do our job,” Maley said.
“Our job is to put the ball in the hoop and to win basketball games, and we didn’t do that and haven’t been doing that. As basketball players, we’re allowed to have down games and we’re just people so I’ve just gone through a slump myself.
“I’m not shooting the ball as well as I want to, but I’m just a human and that happens. I think we need to allow ourselves space to be human beings, but make sure that the slump doesn’t last for too long and pick ourselves up, keep going and support each other the way we have been.
“At the end of the day if we all stick together and support each other, and show the Perth basketball community that no matter we play as hard as we can and work our arse off, and have each other’s back, that’s what sport is about.
“These are 15 sisters out here working together to put a ball in the hoop, but it’s bigger than basketball and it’s about the Perth community. If we continue to show that then there’s no negative to come out of this season.”
When reflecting on what the Lynx need to do to get back to winning starting Wednesday night in Melbourne against the Boomers, it’s not so much about rising the level of their play, but making the right adjustments.
Maley would never question that the team is putting in the work and loves the connection they have with one another. At the end of the day, it’s all about putting in the required effort at the defensive end that is going to be key to breaking back into the top four.
“It’s not the level, we just have to adjust style. We have 12, when they are all suited up, brilliant athletes but they’re no Aari McDonald and they are different,” Maley said.
“Chibba brings a post up presence that Aari doesn’t, Miela brings a panache that Aari doesn’t so everyone has their strengths. We just need to adjust to a new style and we haven’t yet. That’s not on the coaching staff, that’s on us as players to make it work.
“They can only do so much and can only go through so much scout, but in this game it wasn’t our offence that hurt us. It was our defence. In most games, we are scoring enough points and our D is horrendous, it’s horrid.
“That’s not an Aari McDonald problem, that’s an us problem and a problem for all of us. We’re not putting our best foot forward defensively and that’s what is hurting us.
“Obviously not having Aari sucks, but are we just going to ride out a whole season and saying we didn’t do well because we didn’t have Aari? No, we need to adjust and we are capable of it, 100 per cent. I know that we are capable of it, we just need to make the change.”
