The importance of doing what you love
When I was growing up, all I wanted to be was an
artist. When I got to high school and could choose
what classes to take, I took every art class that was
available. Painting, drawing, photography, you name
it - l took the class.
Then I took a chemistry class. I LOVED it. It was fun!
And I was good at it. I started thinking: wouldn't I make
more money if I went into the sciences instead of
being a starving artist?
So I threw away the art school applications and went
to study chemistry. College was fun, and when I
graduated with my chemistry degree, I went to
graduate school in Washington, D. C. to do a PhD
program in chemistry! It was OK to start with, but after
the first year, I was completely depressed. I hated the
program. It was dry and boring. But I didn't know what
to do about it.
So I quit. I spent the next month feeling bad about my
failure, unsure what to do next. Finally, I went to an employment agency to get a job. Something -
anything - that would pay money.
I got a temporary job filling envelopes at an NGO. One
day they needed some graphic design and I
volunteered. This was the major turning point in my
career. Over the next few months, they gave me more
and more design work. What began as a temporary
job turned into a permanent job. I was finally doing
something I loved, and I was making money doing it.
It's been difficult at times, but I really love my job.
Believe me, it is FAR more important that you are
happy and get to do what you are passionate about
every day and get paid less for it, than to dread getting
up in the morning because you dislike what you do.
NGO = non-governmental organization

Advanced Merging in GIT
Merging in Git is typically fairly easy. Since Git
makes it easy to merge another branch multiple
times, it means that you can have a very long lived
branch but you can keep it up to date as you go,
solving small conflicts often, rather than being
surprised by one enormous conflict at the end of
the series.
However, sometimes tricky conflicts do occur.
Unlike some other version control systems, Git
does not try to be overly clever about merge
conflict resolution. Git’s philosophy is to be smart
about determining when a merge resolution is
unambiguous, but if there is a conflict, it does
not try to be clever about automatically resolving
it. Therefore, if you wait too long to merge two
branches that diverge quickly, you can run into
some issues.

know about GIT. Apress, 2018 -Page 267.

about Merging in GIT that:

National Solid Waste Policy
and its emerging challenges in Brazil
The National Solid Waste Policy was approved in
2010 after almost 20 years of discussion in the National
Congress. Its main goal is to decrease the total volume of
waste produced nationally and increase the sustainability of
solid waste management throughout the country. In order to
do so, the policy establishes important instruments to deal
with economic, social and environmental issues related to
inappropriate waste management. The policy also promotes
sustainable consumption patterns, as well as a more intense
and efficient use of measures, such as recapturing, recycling,
reusing and proper waste disposal systems.
Although it is considered a groundbreaking policy, there
are many concerns regarding its implementation due to the
fact that it calls on states, regions and municipalities to expand
local plans so that the policy can have full effect. In this sense,
broad and integrated participation is demanded, not only from
the government, but also from companies and consumers.

Why I Became an English Teacher
More than one person has told me that becoming an English teacher was a bad career choice. There are too many English teachers
looking for work today, they explained. However, my decision to become an English teacher was not based on the job market, but on
where I think I best fit in the grand scheme of things. If language is at the heart of everything we do, then I want to be in the middle of
the action, helping others learn to use language well.
That brings me to a series of current events in which language has played an extremely important part: The Presidential campaign of 2012. It is at times like these, when we are bombarded with information, that we need our language skills to be first class. We not only need to understand what the candidates are saying, but we need to evaluate each statement’s veracity. We need to analyze and evaluate the information using strategic and extended thinking; this leads to creating a point of view on a topic. My goal as a teacher is to ensure my students have the skills they’ll need to make informed and logical decisions that benefit themselves and their community.

Want to travel? Be careful! Two countries with high risks for tourists
Chad: This African country has had some bad incidents with its political temperatures from its past. It has a high insecurity classification. It also has a high prevalence of armed bandits and groups; in fact its armed forces have to control the nation. Because of this, it is probable that travelers will encounter armed vehicles, attack helicopters and armed forces. The capital, Kinshasa, is particularly notorious for its crime at any time of the day. If you are in the country, don’t take photographs, don’t trust anyone who offers assistance, and don’t go to areas that the natives classify as high risk.
Bangladesh: In south-east Asia, Bangladesh experiences regular terrorist attacks. In addition to this, extreme weather conditions put this nation as having a high risk of natural calamities such as earth tremors, flooding and cyclones. In contrast, the Bangladeshi people are very friendly and hospitable. Even though this is the case, be careful because incidences can happen.

One of the things Jaime appreciates about Accela is that “they believe in their product so much, you don’t have to sign on for a year. With Accela, we didn’t feel they were trying to get the most money they could from the agency. We felt they truly were a company that wanted to work with us and were understanding of all the different requirements we had.”
Reno, Nevada, Improves Efficiency while Complying with Stringent Open Meeting Law Requirements
ADAMANT ABOUT TRANSPARENCY
The Reno City Council meets regularly to set priorities, approve the budget and address issues facing the community. These meetings
are guided by incredibly stringent open meeting law requirements. Staff must post the agenda, along with all supporting materials, on
their website at least three days prior to a meeting. Additionally, if any documents are presented during a Council meeting to help make
a decision, it must be uploaded within 24 hours after the meeting.
As a Senior Management Analyst, Jaime Schroeder has been responsible for all staff reports, supporting materials and the agendas for
the Reno City Council and the Reno Redevelopment Agency Board since early 2012. Back then, the agency was using a government
shareware product. “We realized we had quickly outgrown that system,” recalls Jaime.
The City’s communications and technology departments conducted a thorough search of alternatives and narrowed the list down to
three contenders. “We looked at Accela Legislative Management and realized it was the full package,” says Jaime. “It was something
we felt we could implement and get comfortable with quickly.”
HOW ACCELA EMPOWERS RENO
One of the things Jaime appreciates about Accela is that “they believe in their product so much, you don’t have to sign on for a year. With Accela, we didn’t feel they were trying to get the most money they could from the agency. We felt they truly were a company that wanted to work with us and were understanding of all the different requirements we had.”
City Council meetings are on average four to six hours long. In the past, citizens had to fast forward and rewind through an entire
meeting online in order to find what they were looking for. “The great thing about this product and why we chose it is that the video of
each meeting is integrated with the meeting documents and it also has time-stamp features, making it easy for staff and citizens to
quickly find what they’re interested in. I love that transparency.”
THE BOTTOM LINE
Once a document is posted online, staff and citizens alike can access it through a meeting portal 24/7. When citizens request a Council
or staff report, employees can simply direct them to the portal, where they can click on the meeting date, see the agenda and then click
on the item that interests them. When the media requests information, the Communications department can send links to staff reports
online, saving time, paper and money and helping to ensure accurate media coverage.
In the future, the City of Reno is looking forward to using the electronic voting feature available within Accela Digital Boardroom that
shows meeting participants’ votes on a screen during the meeting in real time.

their website at least three days prior to a meeting. Additionally, if any documents are presented during a Council meeting to help make
a decision, it must be uploaded within 24 hours after the meeting.
As a Senior Management Analyst, Jaime Schroeder has been responsible for all staff reports, supporting materials and the agendas for
the Reno City Council and the Reno Redevelopment Agency Board since early 2012. Back then, the agency was using a government
shareware product. “We realized we had quickly outgrown that system,” recalls Jaime.
The City’s communications and technology departments conducted a thorough search of alternatives and narrowed the list down to
three contenders. “We looked at Accela Legislative Management and realized it was the full package,” says Jaime. “It was something
we felt we could implement and get comfortable with quickly.”
HOW ACCELA EMPOWERS RENO
One of the things Jaime appreciates about Accela is that “they believe in their product so much, you don’t have to sign on for a year. With Accela, we didn’t feel they were trying to get the most money they could from the agency. We felt they truly were a company that wanted to work with us and were understanding of all the different requirements we had.”
City Council meetings are on average four to six hours long. In the past, citizens had to fast forward and rewind through an entire
meeting online in order to find what they were looking for. “The great thing about this product and why we chose it is that the video of
each meeting is integrated with the meeting documents and it also has time-stamp features, making it easy for staff and citizens to
quickly find what they’re interested in. I love that transparency.”
THE BOTTOM LINE
Once a document is posted online, staff and citizens alike can access it through a meeting portal 24/7. When citizens request a Council
or staff report, employees can simply direct them to the portal, where they can click on the meeting date, see the agenda and then click
on the item that interests them. When the media requests information, the Communications department can send links to staff reports
online, saving time, paper and money and helping to ensure accurate media coverage.
In the future, the City of Reno is looking forward to using the electronic voting feature available within Accela Digital Boardroom that
shows meeting participants’ votes on a screen during the meeting in real time.

Legislative Management and Information System
In May 2001, the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (SP − Provincial Council in English) under the leadership of Vice-Governor
Loreto Leo S. Ocampos embarked on the computerization of its legislative function through the acquisition of the “Legislative
Management and Tracking System”. The “Legislative Management and Tracking System” or “Legtrack” as it is commonly called,
is a software program developed as a tool to track, monitor and store communications, requests, proposed resolutions and ordinances,
communications, Sangguniang Bayan Resolutions and ordinances from different municipalities and cities to be acted upon.
The Provincial Government only spent sixty-six thousand pesos (P 66,000.00) for the cost of installation, airfare and
accommodation of two Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP) consultants and the training of five SP personnel on its
operation and application. Now, over a million worth of software program was given to the Sangguniang Panlalawigan for free.
The SP’s “Legtrack” can be considered as one of the most updated versions of the Tracking System used by different Local
Government Units in the country. It also holds the distinction of being the first “Legtrack” to be synced to a Paperless Legislation
Program.
The actual performance of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan and its individual members can also be gauged through statistics on
session attendance; committee meeting attendance; committee reports made, number of resolutions and ordinances authored,
sponsored and passed.
Furthermore, the System upgrade(s) enhances not only the intellectual capability of the Secretariat but also its technical
competence in support to the Sanggunian’s Office vows to be responsive, active and sensitive to the needs of the people. It has
undergone a total of seven upgrades over the years.
