Evita cast member Tony Howell “comes back home” to Chicago and shares his feelings with us:
I am so grateful to be performing in Chicago. I came through in 2010 with Disney’s Beauty and the Beast–but I am so excited to return on Evita‘s fabulous #RainbowTour!
Chicago feels like home–or at least a homecoming. I have a real community here with Ball State classmates, regional theatre colleagues and friends from New York performing in The Book of Mormon and other shows. Chicago and its audiences offer the best energy. You are so warm and inviting–taking me back to my Hoosier roots!
Some of my favorite Chicago experiences include attending the river architecture tour and Musical Mondays at Sidetrack with my mom in 2010. A fellow tweetheart, @Foodtiq made me a list of the Top 10 Must-Sees inspired by the show! I hope to follow her suggestions and check out The Art Institute and Navy Pier ferris wheel when my mom visits me on this tour. Aside from the sites, I love the resources available in Chicago. I’m keeping my physique strong at Equinox and getting great technique classes at the Joffrey Academy and Lou Conte Dance Studio. Beyond the thrill of performing nightly at the Oriental Theatre, the thing I’m most looking forward to is teaching my marketing and networking seminar, Creative Social Media, on September 30th at Stage 773.

COHOES, N.Y. -- The Cohoes Fire Department has a new life saving tool to use during fire rescues – masks for four-legged friends.
The masks come in three different sizes and are designed specifically for animals suffering from smoke inhalation.
Each fire truck in the city of Cohoes is now fully equipped with special pet safety gear. The department tells us far too many pets die each year because firefighters have no way to revive them.They are confident these kits will help cut back on those loses.
The masks were donated through a nationwide campaign called the Wag' N 02 Fur Life Program.

The Spectacular Tulips of Showa Kinen Park
Showa Kinen-The Ultimate Urban Park
One of the things I love about my city is that there are more than enough things to keep one occupied for an entire lifetime and beyond. Tokyo is known for everything high-tech and trendy, and while most visitors come for all the action and excitement that this incredible city offers, I find the need to take breaks from all the glitz and glamour on a regular basis.
One of my most recent discoveries of this incredible city is, what I believe to be the ultimate public park in all of Tokyo. Not only is it one of the best parks in all of Japan, but is probably the best place to view a variety of flowers that bloom year-round.
*Photos taken by myself unless otherwise noted.
Get to Know Tokyo
A visual and descriptive exploration of Tokyo that combines old, new traditional and trendy, like no other city in the world. Tokyo Megacity presents the districts of the city in the order they originally developed, starting with the Imperial Palace all the way to High-City. The combination of stunning photographs and wonderful descriptions capture the diversity, vitality and sheer livability of this megacity.
Escape to a World of Incredible Beauty
On this particular day, I literally felt the effects of everyday stress getting to me as my head swirled uncomfortably with anxiety. My head was not in the best place and I desired two things. I craved something different, an escape from things familiar. I wanted to go to a place I've never been to before - somewhere peaceful and quiet and hopefully a place with lots of space.
As I boarded the train, I wasn't exactly looking forward to the long train ride to visit a park. But at least I found an empty seat so I could relax. I decided to do some research online with my ipad to find out more about this park.
Apparently this park was established as part of a project to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Emperor Showa's reign, and it is huge as it comprises an area of approximately 163 hectares. There are also a variety of things to see and do, it's almost mind- boggling.
According to the official website, there are forests, spacious lawns, beautiful flowering plants and even a Japanese garden. Visitors can take part in activities such as bonsai classes, tea ceremonies, bird watching, cycling, boating and croquet. Add to that numerous restaurants, a handful of cafes and barbecue areas, and you barely have enough hours during the day to do it all.
What Should I Do First?
After learning more about the variety of things at the park, I became excited to see it with my own eyes. Once we arrived and took a look at the map, I was surprised to see how big the park actually was. I had underestimated the size of the place. According to the brochure, there seemed to be a flower festival going on. Various flowers were supposed to be in full bloom including rapeseed flowers, poppies and colorful tulips.
Due to the sheer size of this park, the recommended way of touring is by bicycle. However the hour-long wait for the bike rentals immediately ruled that option out.
City or Country?
Where do you live?
A Proper Tea Near the Bonsai Garden
While perusing the brochure, the Japanese Gardens immediately caught my attention so with map in hand, I went in search of this area. After a good 15-minute walk, I finally caught a glimpse of the main entrance to the gardens in the distance.
The Japanese Gardens was located inside its own enclosure, forcing you to enter through one gate, so it felt more like a separate park rather than a part of one. This arrestingly beautiful area included carefully arranged trees and plants that were planted around wooden bridges, meandering streams, and man-made hills. In the center of it all was a large pond with a Japanese Teahouse, allowing one to enjoy a refreshing cup of Matcha. Further back, one could find a bonsai garden, showcasing masterpieces as old as 150 years!
I spent quite a bit of time here. Beautiful koi fish and turtles swam through the streams and pond while the azaleas and wisteria plants added color to the otherwise zen landscape. After a soothing cup of Matcha, I made my way out to discover the rest of the park.

Bonsai Makes the Perfect Room Decor
Neither plastic nor silk, this preserved bonsai tree has real foliage and a wooden trunk that was carefully handcrafted and preserved to protect its natural fragrance, color and texture indefinitely. No maintenance is required. The perfect accent piece for any room.
Komorebi Village-A Japanese Farm Village
Right next to the Japanese gardens lie Komorebi Village, an area depicting a farm village on the Musashino Plain in the 1950s and 1960s. This area features authentic rice paddies, sweet potato and tea farms, where we can learn about the wisdom of nature through agriculture.
On this certain day, the area was decorated with "Koinobori" or "carp streamers" to celebrate Children's Day. There were many activities planned throughout the day in this small area, and although I was immediately interested in the soba ( buckwheat noodles ) making class, I knew I wanted to see the tulips way on the other side of the park.

In Search of Tulips
Looking for the tulips was not an easy task. After a light lunch and rest at a cafe, I continued to walk through the park looking for those tulips that were advertised in my brochure. After walking for what seemed like hours, the trees opened up to an expansive open space of grass. And way on the other side of the open field, I could just make out the colors of what looked like a field of tulips!
Encouraged by the colorful sight, I put one foot in front of the other towards the promised land. Fifteen minutes later, I am rewarded with the most beautiful sight. Row after row of tulips in all its variety fill my vision and I am amazed at the beauty of it all.

What About the Dragonfly Pond?
As all good things must come to an end, it was time to head on home. Unfortunately, the park closes at dusk and I was asked to start heading towards the exits. As I made my way out, I realized something. Although I had enjoyed the day, I was kind of bummed. I wanted to see more and I barely scratched the surface of this huge park.
As I looked at my map, I realized that had barely covered half of the park and I didn't want to leave yet. I haven't even gotten to the rapeseed field, or the poppy field. Or the dragonfly pond! I wanted to feel the wind through my hair on a bicycle. What about those rowboats on the brochure? There was so much more!
Sitting on the train ride back home, I had already decided to come back. In fact, my desire was so strong that I knew I would be back soon. I wasn't exactly sure when, but I knew it would be soon enough.
Where do you go to escape? What do you do to add variety to the everyday grind? As always, your comments are appreciated. Thanks so much for reading!

Long before Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime made binge-watching shows the norm for many people, movie studios were capitalizing off their biggest films by building franchises around them. Now those streaming services and studios have come together to make it easy for audiences to binge-watch entire franchises no matter how big or small right from their living rooms. Here are iconic movie franchises (of three or more films) to binge-watch, and how long it will take!
Kung Fu Panda
For a family-friendly choice of franchises, a good one to turn to is Kung-Fu Panda. The first film was released in 2008 in which Jack Black voiced the main character Po Ping, a giant panda who is unexpectedly chosen as the Dragon Warrior. Upon its release, the animated film was acclaimed by critics and viewers and was soon followed by Kung Fu Panda 2 in 2011 and Kung Fu Panda 3 in 2016. Watching all three films will take just over four hours, and offer entertainment for the young and the young at heart. If you can’t get enough of Po and his adventures there are also three short films as well as two television series: Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness and Kung Fu Panda: The Paws of Destiny.

Glaucoma is a disease in which the optic nerve is damaged, leading to progressive and irreversible loss of vision. Glaucoma can develop at any intraocular pressure (IOP), but elevated intraocular pressure is one of the major risk factors for the development and progression of glaucoma. Most treatments for glaucoma are targeted at lowering the intraocular pressure, either by decreasing the formation of aqueous fluid in the eye, or, as in the case of glaucoma filtration surgery, by increasing the outflow of fluid from the eye. Trabeculectomy is a filtering surgery where an ostium is created into the anterior chamber from underneath a partial thickness scleral flap to allow for aqueous flow out of the eye. The aqueous flows into the subconjunctival space, usually leading to an elevation of the conjunctiva, referred to as a filtering bleb . There are several suggested routes for the aqueous after reaching the filtering bleb. These routes include filtration through the conjunctiva into the tear film, absorption by vascular or perivascular conjunctival tissue, flow through lymphatic vessels near the margins of the surgical area, and drainage through aqueous veins . Trabeculectomy is performed for treatment of glaucoma inadequately controlled by maximally tolerated medical therapy.

Tugs and workboats
Year of realization
Dutch family owned company ”Oeverwerken” opts for a green battery solution
One of our latest projects, a hybrid crane vessel named ‘Stormvogel’ went for a succesfull sea trial. Stormvogel is owned by the Dutch family owned company ” Oeverwerken” with the mission to become more green. Compared to a ship with conventional technology, the design of Stormvogel can save 30 percent in fuel.
This is partly thanks to the underwater hull that has been completely redesigned and optimized with the help of computer simulations. As a result, the hull has 30 percent less resistance under water and thus 30 percent fuel savings. This is just one of the many techniques on board to reduce CO2 and emissions.
The entire propulsion is diesel-electric. The crane is also fully electric and will be equipped with a flywheel. This means that when the grab drops, the excess energy is stored and can be used later. This also saves an additional 30 percent in fuel.
It was a great collaboration with Oeverwerken B.V., Technisch Installatiebureau Oechies bv, Afresh and PLM CRANES.

There are some basic specifications that apply to archival-quality products. We want you to know exactly what you’re getting, so we list specifications for our archival products in our catalog and on the Specs tab of the product pages on our website.
Acid-Free – Having a pH of 7.0 or greater at the time of manufacture. Applies to paper/board products.
Lignin-Free – Must test at less than 1% for lignin, a component of plant cells believed to aid chemical degradation. Applies to paper/board products.
pH – The pH of the paper material at the time of manufacture; 7 is neutral; 0 to 6.9 is acidic, 7.1 to 14 is alkaline. Papers and boards usually test within a pH range. Plastics are not described by pH.
Construction – The thickness and type of material; pt. and mil are both terms that indicate 1/1,000 of an inch.
Color – Color is based on preference only and does not indicate archival-quality material. All of our boards and papers are archival quality unless we specifically note that the product is recommended for short-term storage only. Our colors do not bleed.
Buffer – This line indicates whether or not an alkaline substance has been added to neutralize acids or counteract acids in the future. Some items may be sensitive to alkalinity and require unbuffered materials. Learn more about buffered vs. unbuffered storage materials. Applies to paper/board products.
The Photographic Activity Test (P.A.T.) is a simulated aging test developed by the Image Permanence Institute to predict which storage materials will cause accelerated deterioration or staining in photos, a very sensitive medium. Most of our storage materials have been submitted and passed the test. Look for this logo in our catalog and on our website.
The absence of the logo does not indicate that a product has failed the P.A.T., as some products have not yet been tested.

To celebrate National Selfie Day — yes, along with doughnuts, cats, stupid questions and popcorn, selfies have a holiday — Physicians Formula recruited beauty vloggers, possibly the world’s best selfie-takers, to dole out cell phone and makeup tips at Ulta Beauty and Duane Reade today.
The event is part of the Markwins-owned beauty brand’s efforts to promote its #InstaReady products, including the best-selling Super BB Contour Trio BB Stick SPF 30, developed to diminish shine for flawless filter-free posts, and to raise its profile among digital influencers and their audiences. YouTubers Jessica Harlow and Deepica Mutyala are heading to Duane Reade in New York’s Herald Square, while YouTuber Emily Eddington and celebrity makeup artist Joanna Schlip are meeting fans in Ulta Beauty at Chicago’s The Shops at Roosevelt Collection.
Leading up to National Selfie Day, Physicians Formula held a contest encouraging consumers to take selfless, renewing and empowering selfies. “We’ve had huge growth on Instagram because of this contest. We’ve seen 12 percent growth since we started,” said Alice Chen, vice president of marketing and head of corporate communications for Physicians Formula. “People are really engaged by doing something fun with their selfies and posting an image of themselves being more selfless versus just showing pictures of themselves.”

The contest isn’t the only initiative Physicians Formula has undertaken to amplify its social-media messaging. The brand constructed an in-house studio to produce how-to tutorials, photograph influencer shoots and conduct interviews, and is expanding its digital marketing team to escalate influencer programs. “We rely on influencers and our web site to educate consumers about how to use our products, what’s in the products and the product claims. There is so much to our products, and we utilize them to tell the story,” said Chen.
Physicians Formula has been in a state of transition since former chief executive officer Ingrid Jackel decamped for Yes To Inc. last year, but Chen suggested the transition is in the rearview mirror, and the brand is poised to surge. “The turnaround of Wet ‘n’ Wild in the last seven years has been huge, and I’m hoping to bring that success over to Physicians Formula,” said Chen, a Markwins veteran who joined Physicians Formula in September. “We have a lot that we’re looking forward to for 2017, and we’re really building this brand to its potential.”
Before 2017 rolls around, Physicians Formula has plenty on the docket. To capitalize on the strobing and color-correcting trends stocked by social media, the brand will focus on its existing product Butter Bronzer and release a new color-correcting item. “We started in color correcting as a brand, and it’s a big part of our business. We are number-one right now in terms of dollars for color correction,” said Chen. “In the second half of this year, we are launching a first-to-market color-correcting product that’s never been seen before at mass or prestige. That’s going to be a huge push for us.”
Already in 42,000 doors globally, Physicians Formula is getting a distribution boost by reentering Walgreens in December and January. “It’s a huge win for the brand,” said Chen. “The brand seven years ago [when it departed Walgreens] is drastically different from the brand now. In the past five years, the brand has been a lot more on trend. Since the acquisition of Physicians Formula by Markwins [in 2012], we have really improved our inventory and sell-through rates in stores. Our consumer reach is much broader, and our innovation is still first and foremost.”

Responding to social media posts alleging racism and an online petition signed by over 2,200 people accusing Biglerville High School of being “complicit in the abuse and harassment of students of color,” PA state officials and the Upper Adams School District (UASD) administration said today they were taking allegations of racism and sexism raised on social media seriously and that there was a mechanism in place for responding to complaints and concerns.
As the district collaborates with the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission (PHRC), Department of Justice, Attorney General’s Office, and Department of Education, UASD Superintendent Wesley Doll asked people to use the state Safe 2 Say Something website to report any concerns they may have.
Doll assured people the hotline was completely anonymous, despite some rumors that it was not. “Any concerns that that come through that site are presented to our trained staff and we address them,” said Doll.
Chad Lassiter, PHRC executive director, said the district had not yet received any complaints and that the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act provides a framework for investigations and compliance for potential future complaints.
Lassiter said he would be working with UASD to bring expertise in unconscious bias, diversity, inclusion, and anti-racism training to help young people of all races and ethnicities share their experiences. Lassiter said the state was also prepared to provide counseling dealing with trauma and the potential of vicarious traumatization.
PHRC Acknowledges Systemic Racism
Saying Pennsylvania ranks number eight in the country in terms of hate groups, Lassiter noted that UASD was a “microcosm of structural systemic racism” in Pennsylvania. “A lot of this is being socialized in homes, so we can’t whitewash it. We can’t get away from it. A lot of it is more than just kids being kids.”
“We’re not looking only at this county. We’re not looking only at this school. We know that in order to reach a level of reconciliation you have to have an admission of truth. You have to be willing to make sure that you don’t get back to a sense of normalcy. This is going be a protracted initiative that’s going to take time. There is accountability,” said Lassiter. “We need to make sure that we’re holding the adults in the lives of these children extremely accountable. When we’re talking about the shadow of hate, when we’re talking about forms of bigotry and prejudice, it’s not merely name calling.”
Responses to the Facebook Page
Doll said despite allegations from community members the district had not tried to shut down the Racism @ Biglerville High School Facebook page. “We do not have anyone seeking out who is running that website or anything about it. The website created an awareness for us. That’s something that needed to happen,” said Doll. Doll said the district was looking at the systems already in place and what additional things the district needed to put into place. “We want all students to feel safe here at our school,” said Doll.”
Doll said the school has had one officer on duty over the past week, similar to the police presence that is normally at the school on any given day. Doll said last Monday there was one police officer on duty. “We had one local police officer here in light of the number of Facebook postings we were receiving. We had some concerns from parents regarding those. So that individual was here just to be present,” said Doll.
Doll said some students had come to the open meetings that were set up with the Biglerville High School principal and assistant principal last week. “It was more of a sharing of what types of things were happening. They were mainly just listening to any students who felt comfortable to come down.”
Doll said the district had been communicating to students, parents, and teachers via email letters and that it would continue to collaborate and communicate as needed to keep people abreast of any situations.
Doll said the district would be scheduling a meeting with stakeholders to identify what the next steps will be to put new systems into place or to enhance the systems the district currently has.
“This isn’t going to be a sprint. It’s going to be a multi-marathon,” said Doll. This isn’t something that will be fixed in a week, a month, or a year. This will be an ongoing process within our school community.”
PHRC Marketing & Communications Specialist Laura Argenbright said the state and the district encouraged people to speak out. “I’m just encouraging everyone to come to this with an open mind and an open heart from either side. This isn’t something that just happened. It’s something that has been happening and will happen in the future.”
Doll said he preferred communication about this issue to go through him but he had not asked school board members, school staff, or teachers to not talk about them.

Experts say the mass exodus of people from the devastated Gulf Coast region is unprecedented in American history.
Federal officials say up to one million people, mostly from New Orleans, have been displaced in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. More than 200,000 victims have taken refuge in nearby Texas, while others are scattered in cities and towns from California to New York City.
War, economic disaster, religious and social persecution and natural catastrophes have forced large populations to relocate many times in American history.
Experts say this time, however, the migration of hundreds of thousands from New Orleans and the U.S. Gulf Coast is completely different - as the newly homeless are coming from one of America's most unique and diverse cities, and it is happening over a much shorter period of time.
Some information for this report provided by AP.

L.A. inspiration fuels Zella Day’s sound
Thu., Aug. 11, 2016
Singer-songwriter Zella Day moved to Los Angeles four years ago, having fantasized about living in the city since she was a kid. Born and raised in the small resort town of Pinetop-Lakeside, Arizona, Day got her start performing in her parents’ coffee shop, releasing an independent album titled “Powered by Love” when she was only 13.
“I had my sights set on California for a long time,” Day said. “I always viewed California as being more open-minded, a place where there was room for everybody and everything. There weren’t kids my age making music when I was growing up. So I had this idealistic approach to California and how being there would further my career, which it did, and I’m actually still inspired by the same things being here.”
Day’s latest album, “Kicker,” is defined by the wide-eyed optimism of a small town kid newly arrived in a big, sparkly city, a collection of stories about runaways, modern-day outlaws, hippies and heartbreakers. In that sense, it’s a distinctly Los Angeles record. But Day, who performs at the Knitting Factory on Wednesday, says she was conscious about allowing her Arizona roots to creep into the music.
“I found it important to bring in my home and somehow incorporate the landscapes and influences of Arizona,” Day said. “I quickly realized moving to L.A. that my upbringing wasn’t something to be ashamed of.”
“Kicker” is also a record of conflicting interests, since its characters are as troubled as they are carefree, and a song about an intense love affair might be followed by an aching, heartsick ballad. That approach clearly reflects Day’s headspace when she was working on the album.
“I moved out of my mom’s house in Long Beach, was living in L.A. by myself, going through a break-up and finishing a record,” Day said. “There was a darker thematic side of my heart being torn between two places and two sides of who I was. … But there’s also an optimistic side of the record, with my fresh eyes of L.A. and the excitement and rush of being in California, and the departure from being a kid.”
Day cites Fleetwood Mac and Joni Mitchell as early musical influences, and she says that everything from the Zombies and old-school country inspired her most recent batch of songs. “Kicker” was produced by pop impresarios Wax Ltd., and it’s fueled by pulsating electronic rhythms, arena-ready percussion and lush harmonies. Day’s airy, come-hither voice recalls Lana Del Ray and Florence Welch, and her lovelorn, radio-friendly lyrics resemble Taylor Swift’s most recent work.
“My taste definitely became more eclectic as I was around different bands here in L.A. and exposed to different music,” Day said. “It’s been years of connecting with producers and writers and growing into myself as a songwriter.”
Day comes to Spokane as an opener for rock-rapper Michael Franti, and she’ll be backed by a full band. Day says her live songs sound identical to their recorded counterparts, but the energy on stage is much more vibrant.
“I wrote ‘Kicker’ before I had ever toured a day in my life, so the way the record comes to life onstage feels a lot more rock ‘n’ roll,” Day said. “Which I think is exciting, because people don’t know what to expect from an alternative pop artist. The show is a beautiful representation of the record. I think I enjoy the record more onstage than I do off stage.”

Jonathan Terrell Will Make You Love Texas Again in His New Song and Video
Look, it’s easy to shake your head over Texas these days. The governor can’t keep the lights on, nincompoop senator Ted Cruz spends his time thinking about Pete Davidson, and the state is restricting women’s rights while loosening gun laws. But Jonathan Terrell, a Longview native fond of using phrases like “let me throw some bacon in the pan” when he’s making a point, will make you appreciate all that’s still great about the Lone Star State with his new song and video “Texas.”
Shot at the Austin-area ranch of Midland’s Jess Carson, who adds acoustic guitar and co-wrote the song with Terrell, the video is a love letter to Texas on par with Willie Nelson’s own sublime reading of Alex Harvey’s “No Place But Texas.” Terrell, who kicked up a fuss at this spring’s Luck Reunion at Nelson’s ranch, croons about the state’s wide open spaces, its gorgeous springtime bluebonnets, and the ubiquitous sounds of a steel guitar, played here by Simon Page.
He does all of the Texas things in the video too: strumming his guitar on a horse, galloping across the Hill Country, and…introducing an alien to a spaceman. (Just watch it.) “Well, you can be from Japan or some far away star,” he sings, “but we’ll take you just the way you are.”
“Texas” is Terrell’s latest release off his upcoming EP A Couple, 2, 3…, due Sept. 9 and produced by Beau Bedford. Earlier this summer, he leaned into tender vibes for the ballad “Better for You” and college rock for “I Know.” Terrell is set to open for Midland at two shows at Billy Bob’s in Fort Worth, Texas, on Aug. 5 and 6, and has joined the band on the road throughout the summer.

D Michael B's Resort Bar & Grill
Enjoy classic American cuisine at this family oriented restaurant that also features sixteen satellite televisions, pool tables, dart boards, and a variety of video games for the whole family to enjoy.
The place has a nice atmosphere and good food but the ad is incorrect. There are no pool tables, dart boards or even video games. Good dining experience overall. Unfortunately, I was looking forward to the pool and darts described. Also, great happy hour special from 3 till 6 all of my drinks were $2 a piece.
I absolutely love this restaurant. The food is always good & the service is excellent. I also enjoy the environment, very tastefully decorated & clean. Appealing to all generations, whether it's families going out to lunch/dinner or to have a little fun with friends I recommend D Michael B's!
I like the atmosphere of the place but the day we were there the place was very crowded and under staffed. My mother ordered the beef barley soup and I had the lasagna. The soups, the chicken wild rice, which we received by mistake, and the beef barley were so peppered that there was no other taste. The soups were far too thick to be called a soup. The lasagna might have been enjoyable if the pepper hadn't overwhelmed the other ingredients.
I have visited this establishment on several other occassions and have had a great experience. I feel the price is reasonable and hope that the cooks get a handle on seasoning,
This place is great for lunch, dinner, or for some cocktails late at night. They have great drink specials after 10pm daily, even on weekends and the decor symbolizes a hunting shack. Rather diverse croud both young and old come to this place to enjoy a few beers after work. Same people own Bugaboo Bay a few miles north, also a fun spot.
From the moment I got inside, the air was filled with hazy layers of smoke. It was this cigarette smoke that made the atmosphere extreamely unpleasant, the food taste bad, and all in all not worth it. The service lacked because no effort was made (on request) to reduce the smoke inside.

Starting with a build of sweeps similar to Bassnectar's "Magical World", light guitar chords and Joni Fatora's gracious vocals, the song then moves into a break of grungy synths to give you your bass, hard snare, and melodic violins to help carry the melody. This one was crucial to get me through the work week and I think will be great for you as well. This is Stephen Swartz's first release so I cannot wait to see what comes next from the young U of Miami student.

How Shareholder Engagement Can Reshape Finance
This spring, a small hedge fund called Engine No. 1 led a shareholder revolt against Exxon, one of the biggest oil companies in the world. Despite being a new firm with relatively meager assets, they shocked the world by rallying shareholders to eject existing Exxon directors who have ignored the threat of climate change and replace them with clean energy experts.
This signature victory signaled a new era for shareholder engagement, a core activity of investment stewardship which can be key to sustainable investing strategies.
As sustainable investing has grown from a niche interest to headline trend reaching an all-time high of $21.5 billion added to sustainable funds in the first quarter of 2021, investment strategies that prioritize investment stewardship activities, including shareholder engagement and proxy voting, are propelling its influence. Indeed, shareholder engagement is gaining steam as a tactic to move businesses toward more climate-friendly practices.
But what is investment stewardship? How do shareholders engage with companies to improve returns and sustainability? How have these strategies evolved, and how can they help reshape the finance world? Here, we lay out the basics.
Who are shareholders?
Publicly held companies are generally run by a chief executive — but that chief executive reports to a board of directors, who are elected by shareholders.
These shareholders own equity (stock) in the company. Shareholders want the company to do well —and some would argue that the whole point of the company is to do well by them, too.
Thanks to the rise of 401ks and other low-cost investment formats, there are more types of shareholders than in the past. At the same time, the incredible turn toward so-called passive investing, where an individual puts money in an intermediary fund that tracks an index rather than actively trying to pick winning stocks, has led to a few investment management firms owning huge chunks of the market. The “Big Three” asset managers of Vanguard, BlackRock and State Street all mainly follow a “passive” strategy. Taken together, they constitute the largest shareholder in 88% of all S&P 500 companies.
Institutional investors, such as universities and state and city pension funds, also hold enormous amounts of stock: some 80% of the public equities market, much of which is invested through the Big Three.
How can shareholders advance sustainability through investment stewardship?
The UN Principles of Responsible Investment (PRI) define investment stewardship as “the use of influence by institutional investors to maximize overall long-term value including the value of common economic, social and environmental assets, on which returns and clients’ and beneficiaries’ interests depend.”
Shareholders concerned about these issues have several inroads to address concerns about corporate performance. They can influence corporate management via earnings calls, elect the board of directors who can replace executives and, depending on how much stock they own, they have the ability to file and vote on shareholder resolutions.
Shareholder resolutions indicate the direction that shareholders want the company to take. They are considered the most serious investment stewardship tactic and a last resort for when conversations haven’t led to desired changes. They are voted on during companies’ annual meetings where shareholders are updated on business activities.
Shareholders use these tools to express concerns about all matters of corporate strategy, but in recent years more and more shareholders have used them to push companies they believe are exposed to or creating climate risks. Climate risks — both physical risks from the impacts of climate change and transition risks from the switch to a low-carbon economy — are present for nearly every company, but investors generally believe these risks are not being acted on fast enough.
A growing movement argues that environmental, social and governance, or ESG, risks are “material” or “relevant” to future performance. That’s why shareholder resolutions are increasingly pushing companies to improve or remedy their actions as the externalities affect ESG-related issues such as to avoid slave labor, hire more women executives, reduce their carbon emissions, and improve environmental and social outcomes and avoid risks.
Who organizes shareholder resolutions?
Shareholder resolutions take a lot of resources and time to coordinate. As a result, they are typically organized by large institutional investors. It would be hard for a small investor to navigate the bureaucratic process, and passive managers historically don’t bother initiating them, preferring to charge lower fees rather than chase a marginal edge on their investments through engagement.
However, even these large investors still need to coordinate their proxy voting activities in order to result in positive stewardship results. In order for a shareholder resolution to pass, investors who hold the company’s stock will vote on the resolution and it must receive at least 51% of votes in support of the resolution. Even large asset owners and managers cannot reach the 51% mark alone, which is why collective engagement efforts for ESG-related shareholder resolutions are increasing and key to positive stewardship outcomes.
Why hasn’t shareholder engagement worked well in the past?
The more shares you hold, the more attention management pays to your concerns. And for decades, big asset owners and managers simply didn’t take climate change and other ESG issues as seriously as they needed to.
Shareholder resolutions on climate change were sometimes filed, but often didn’t get the votes they needed. This contributed to the fossil fuel divestment movement, which posited that it was better to sell off stocks with climate-negative impacts than try to change fossil fuel companies’ business models (and the threat of selling alone may be enough to change some companies’ minds). Additionally, shareholder engagement only works for public companies. Many private companies — including state-owned enterprises who contribute to the use of fossil fuels — don’t have many shareholders or the transparency that empowers them to push for change.
Due to the bureaucratic nature of proxy voting, unless you had lots of money and the time to coordinate among many different investors, few shareholder resolutions for the planet went anywhere. The success rate for shareholder resolutions related to the environment was less than 20% just 10 years ago.
Why is shareholder engagement gaining steam today?
If investors with enough capital come along and make demands, companies are more likely to listen. In recent years, that’s exactly what has happened, with big investment managers — including the Big Three — increasingly concerned about climate risk.
Before the last few years, active managers were more involved in investment stewardship than their passive peers due to taking a more involved investment approach in general. Yet recently, passive managers are becoming more active stewards of capital. Since passive managers are “permanent, universal owners” of the market, they are particularly exposed to growing, systemic risks like climate change, which threaten financial stability writ large, as a US Commodity Futures Trading Commission report concluded last year.
The uptick in active stewardship from passive managers, including the Big Three, is notable after the 2020 proxy voting season — perhaps due to immense public pressure aimed at their size, influence and past inaction. Prior to 2021, the reticence of the “Big Three” passive managers was notable. Then, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink identified climate change as a top priority to maintain durable financial value in his 2021 Letter to CEOs. Year over year, BlackRock doubled the rate at which it supported shareholder proposals from 17% to 35%, which can be attributed in part to activist pressure on BlackRock and other investment managers.
In the case of Engine No. 1, they successfully courted some of the largest American pension funds. In turn, the “Big Three” supported its resolution at Exxon, resulting in a successful outcome where Engine No. 1 itself only owned 0.02% of shares. The coordinated effort ousted existing directors and replaced them with new directors with experience in renewables — a far cry from an actual pivot to the oil giant’s outdated business model, but a start toward what Morningstar called “shareholder-driven climate governance.” But it wasn’t just Engine No. 1 at Exxon — the 26 climate resolutions in the 2021 voting season received an average of 51% support.
Other examples this year show that sometimes shareholder resolutions don’t need to go to a vote to get the goods. Proposals asked Costco, Sysco and Wendy’s to measure and reduce their total contributions to climate change. Each was withdrawn due to “substantial implementation,” evidence that investor pressure caused management to devise tangible plans to improve its sustainability behavior before a shareholder resolution came to a vote.
What’s next in shareholder engagement?
Passive giants cannot carry the torch alone to the 51% support mark. Despite being the largest owners of S&P 500 companies, they are rarely a majority owner, and therefore can only influence so much on their own. However, collective engagement efforts among asset managers and large institutional asset owners have gained traction.
Climate Action 100+ coordinates investors to engage with companies, pushing them to reduce emissions and improve climate disclosure. Its hundreds of signatories hold a hefty $55 trillion in assets under management, making them a group that executives cannot ignore. Among other successes, Climate Action 100+ has already passed a resolution for Chevron to cease lobbying against climate action and for Southern Company to set a net-zero target for 2050.
Even individual investors can join the effort. For example, Engine No. 1 recently launched a low-cost exchange-traded fund, $VOTE, which allows individuals to invest in a diversified fund where corporate engagement is key to the investment strategy. For both large and small investors, passive investing is evolving to take an active role in stewardship efforts.
All this takes place against the backdrop of swelling interest in sustainable investing, creating what CERES president Mindy Lubber called a “sea change” in support for ESG shareholder resolutions. Approximately half of sustainable funds supported ESG shareholder proposals over 75% of the time, while only 6% of non-sustainable funds voted their support at the same levels, according to Morningstar. As more and more managers market their funds as savvy to environmental risks, investors will check to see which ones really follow through on their rhetoric by supporting ESG shareholder resolutions.
Successful stewardship outcomes require the collaboration of all types of investors. Climate change will continue to be paramount in upcoming proxy voting seasons as investors and companies recognize the materiality of climate-related financial risks.


British scientists are gearing up to release robots in Bay of Bengal in a bid to better predict and understand the seasonal monsoon of South Asia. This will be done as part of a study of how the rainfall patterns might be affected by ocean conditions. India gets more than 70 per cent of annual rainfall in the seasonal monsoon which hits the region between June and September.
Hundreds of millions of subsistence farmers across the country eagerly await the arrival of monsoon as delays usually result in drought and can even ruin crops. Rains are hard to predict and can weather phenomena like El Nino can affect them. According to scientists, increasing climate change and air pollution can turn rains even more erratic.
“We are aiming for a better understanding of the actual physical processes,” lead researcher Adrian Matthews of the University of East Anglia’s School of Environmental Sciences said in a statement. “Ultimately, the goal is to improve the prediction of monsoon rainfall over India.”
Scientists from British university, as part of the newly launched $11 million study, will release seven underwater robots in sea and will spend a month in the process. The torpedo-shaped robots will be released in sea from an Indian research ship across a 400-kilometer (250-mile) stretch of water.
Gliding through the water, the robots will monitor its salinity, temperature and current. They will then surface and transmit data to a satellite. In a related study which will take place at the same time, the scientists from the University of Reading and the Indian government will take atmospheric measurements. The two sets of data will then be compared in order to better understand how monsoon patterns are affected by ocean conditions.

Around 80 people, including council representatives, friends, supporters and neighbours, gathered at the National Trust Tea Room, Dapdune Wharf on Thursday 7 December to celebrate the opening of YMCA Guildford Foyer, Wharf Road. Previously known as Midwey House, the YMCA’s 13 bed hostel has been redeveloped to provide modern accommodation for 34 local young people.
Within Guildford the Bridge Street hostel is a familiar sight, but the first YMCA hostel in the town opened in 1969 in Wharf Road. Now, thanks to a grant from the Housing and Communities Association, generous donations from supporters and funds from the sale of other assets, that same building has been enlarged and extended.
At the reception John Slater, Chairman of YMCA DLG, thanked all those present for their interest and practical support that has helped to bring this major project to fruition. He said, “There is no sign of an end to the shortage of affordable accommodation in Guildford. I am proud and passionate about the wonderful offering provided by the YMCA in so many ways to help young people belong, contribute and thrive. Because of the generosity of our many friends and supporters we have been able to commit over £3 million to transform an old, tired, not fit for modern purpose facility into a modern, well-equipped home for 34 young people.”
Following the reception at the Tea Room, the guests made their way along to the new YMCA Guildford Foyer where His Worshipful the Mayor of Guildford, Cllr Nigel Manning officially opened the new facility. The guests were able to tour the new facility which will be staffed around the clock.
Young people have started to move in, having fulfilled the criteria required by the Foyer Federation. The building offers local young people the opportunity to live independently – most rooms are self-contained while some share kitchen facilities – in a safe environment.
