Does anyone have a good reference for private corporations that want to do business with non-profits, specifically their boards of directors? What I'm trying to find (and I've searched Google, but apparently without the right keywords) is a guide for vendors who want to secure non-profit contracts. So far all I've seen are articles and blog posts about when or if a non-profit should outsource. I consult with a non-profit occasionally and they have a quasi vendor who's going about securing the bid, invoicing and completing the work completely wrong and now he's trying to threaten legal action. All because he doesn't understand the difference between working with a private business and a non-profit BoD. What is a quasi vendor , you might ask? There may be a better name for the relationship, but for this instance it means a vendor who was told by a single board member to start bidding on contracts, has only been awarded one - which he failed to deliver - but has

If you're in the US you should probably know this. While the conservatives are taking about activist judges due to the marriage equality case, they're noticeably silent on the erosion of the Constitution here. Originally shared by Tshaka “Villain McBeardface” Armstrong Today's #TheMoreYouKnow   The police now have the right to search your home without obtaining a warrant first. A Supreme Court ruling earlier this month says that if you're arrested or detained and removed from your home, that's now the same as being "absent" which means police can now enter your home and search, even if you don't give consent. Don't take my word for it though. Here's the dissenting opinion from Justice Ginsburg : “Instead of adhering to the warrant requirement,” Ginsburg said, “today’s decision tells the police they may dodge it, never mind ample time to secure the approval of a neutral magistrate.” She added that the ruling, “shrinks to petite size our holding

I think Mike Elgan​ summed it up best. Originally shared by Mike Elgan Why the Supreme Court's ruling on gay marriage is a huge victory for straight people. Celebrations and congratulations abound online over the Supreme Court's ruling that gay marriage is legal in all 50 states.  Most feel that it's an enormous win for gay people who want to get married, which (obviously) it is.  But as good as most Americans feel about what this means for our gay family and friends, the truth is that its effect on people who are actually gay and who will actually get married is only one part of what happened today.  The larger event is that in a huge test of the Constitution, the principle of equality emerged victorious.  The Constitution is pretty fucking clear on equality. The 14th Amendment says: "No state shall... deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." You have on the one side the mere idea of equality enshrined into the Constitution, a

I saw this movie. It was called The Fox and the Hound . Originally shared by Liz Quilty The German shepherd Tinni and the fox Sniffer met in a Norwegian forest when Sniffer was just a baby. Tinni’s dad, Norwegian photographer Torgeir Berge, assumed the fox’s mother had died, so he was seeking company and food. Torgeir realized Tinni and Sniffer’s immediate bond, and before he knew it, the fox and hound were playing, running, and writing their own rules about friendship.

It's an interesting question. Growing up, I kept looking for someone to explain why the world was so screwed up. Now I realise it was a stupid quest, because the people who should have known the answers were in fact the ones screwing it up. And it was Asimov's Foundation Series that helped me get through that time. It taught me about statistics and systems, albeit in not those terms. And I still see things through those lenses today, and it's helped me ever since. Which book helped you? http://io9.com/which-science-fiction-or-fantasy-book-helped-you-to-gro-1712073661

TL;DR version: Vet your source before commissioning work. via Pam Adger​ Originally shared by Mike Massa Wherein I relearn an important lesson after getting suckered (*originally posted privately, reposted to share publicly): I attended RavenCon 2014 with my family and purchased an art commission from Rob Quill (link), who is a frequent sight in artist alley at various national SFF cons. After paying up front and an initial brisk exchange of emails, including a pencil concept sketch, ol' Rob went, as we used to say in the Navy when describingd a ship that has lost main power, 'warm, dark and quiet'. He just wasn't there and I couldn't raise him by email at all. After a few months of this I did the basic due diligence that I should have performed at the outset. I found multiple pages of authors and fans describing exactly my experience with Rob Quill. Payment in full, a concept sketch and then radio silence. A few (perhaps half?) who persisted or knew someone in the

So, this is my cousin, Tommy. He's about 8 or 9 years older than me and ... well, I'll keep my personal opinions to myself. Regardless, his mother is my aunt and she's a very sweet woman who has already been through a lot recently. For example, she'll be here in Denver next week - maybe, after this - to help disperse the ashes of her sister, my other aunt, who died last year. Of four uncles, I only have one left on that side of the family, the rest, her brothers, having died from various causes over the years. My aunt, Tommy's mom, has raised three children, and currently has two grandchildren, Tommy and his fiance living with her, in a house that is dangerously close to falling into an old mine that decided to collapse recently. She was never "well off" and being retired, but with a part time cashier's job, she has very limited funds to bring to the table.  Tommy's been married before - twice, I think - one ending when the woman died, the other .

Isn't Texas supposed to be the home of little to no government interference? Don't get me wrong, the reason we cut grass is to keep wildlife, such as snakes and rodents, away from residential areas.

[1] Most people don't know who these people are which means no built audience which means no big budgets which means throw out most of the team stuff and anything with a lot of CGI. Sure Marvel's been successful about making entertaining movies with class 3 characters, but no one else has even made a decent Marvel movie with a class 1 character (except for Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2) much less a good movie about a little known comic book. [2] A lot of these sucked. WildC.A.T.S.? Seriously? Youngblood? Both were Avengers/XMen ripoffs and both were terrible comics. The WildC.A.T.S. cartoon was atrocious.

But this is Texas where sex education is a sin and abortions can only be had after jumping through dozens of hoops, especially for children and even considering rape or incest. http://www.plannedparenthood.org/planned-parenthood-center-for-choice/texas-abortion-laws [3] Five to eight months after the attack the 14 year old girl couldn't hide her pregnancy any more and her family found out.  Again, what kind of environment is Texas breeding where a victim of rape is too embarrassed to come forward, especially when a pregnancy occurs?
