Debbie Travis, Reigning Queen Of Renovations: An Entrepreneurial Case Study On Finding Your Hedgehog
Full text linkDebbie Travis, awarded the titled “Reigning Queen of Renovations” by TV host Regis Philbin, is an international television personality, best-selling author, interior designer, syndicated newspaper columnist and, most importantly, a beloved entrepreneurial icon in the home decorating industry around the world (The Naked Entrepreneur, 2013). Travis had a fast ride to the top decorating and design world, making the most of her opportunities as she went. With no formal decorating or design experience or training, Debbie was able to find her personal hedgehog. She went on to become an award-winning author, with all eight books becoming best sellers. Some of her notable titles include: The Painted House, Decorating Solutions, Weekend Projects, Living and Dining Rooms, Kids’ Rooms, Bedrooms, Kitchens and Baths, and Facelift (Debbie Travis, 2013). She started her own productive painting and design business, which set her off to be a leader in the paint and faux finishing design trend that was hitting North America (The Naked Entrepreneur, 2013). Following a very successful launch of her product line at Canadian Tire, Travis starred in her own television show, From the Ground Up with Debbie Travis. Double dipping in the house and home industry allowed Debbie to follow her two passions of television and home decorating while being very successful at both (Debbie Travis, 2013). When Travis was becoming a known personality in the decorating lifestyle industry, many people asked her, “How did you manage to get on Oprah?” Debbie’s answer was pretty simple, “I asked.” Travis was not afraid of the producers or talk show hosts saying, “No.” She figured there was no harm in asking. Her theory only proved to be successful as she was on all four shows with great success and response from the experience. With Travis’ unique background, Debbie is a sought after inspirational speaker for various women’s conventions, business organizations, and design and decorating shows around the globe. She is constantly looking for the next opportunity to add to her Debbie Travis ever-building empire
L’antiféminisme d’hier à aujourd’hui. Entretien croisé avec Mélissa Blais et Debbie Ging
No full textInternational audienceThis article reports on a joint interview with two researchers specializing in antifeminism : Mélissa Blais (author of a book on the 1989 antifeminist attack at Polytechnique in Quebec, reissued in 2024) and Debbie Ging (a long-time researcher on online antifeminist politics, the incel subculture, and the recruitment of boys and men into radical ideologies advocating male supremacy). They begin by sharing the experiences that led them to focus on this topic. Moving beyond a general overview of the antifeminist landscape, they shed light on the dynamics characterizing the phenomenon : its contemporary developments, its articulations with other reactionary movements, and its various manifestations. After exploring the ways in which antifeminism is shaped by – and shapes – feminism, the conversation addresses some of the challenges that feminist research faces when documenting it, as well as strategies for effectively resisting it without yielding to fear.Ce texte rend compte d’un entretien croisé, mené avec deux chercheuses spécialistes de l’antiféminisme, Mélissa Blais (autrice d’un ouvrage sur l’attentat antiféministe de Polytechnique survenu au Québec en 1989) et Debbie Ging (travaillant de longue date sur les politiques antiféministes en ligne, la sous-culture Incel et la radicalisation des garçons et des hommes dans des idéologies prônant la suprématie masculine). Elles y dévoilent tout d’abord les expériences les ayant conduites à travailler sur cet objet. Puis, dépassant le panorama de la nébuleuse antiféministe, elles éclairent les dynamiques qui caractérisent le phénomène : ses évolutions contemporaines, ses articulations avec d’autres mouvements réactionnaires et ses différentes manifestations. Après avoir rappelé la façon dont l’antiféminisme est transformé par et transforme le féminisme, l’échange aborde finalement certains défis que les recherches féministes ont à relever pour le documenter, mais aussi des pistes pour lutter efficacement contre l’antiféminisme et ne pas céder à la peur

Economic evaluation of a stratified transport method for Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) juveniles
No full textThe objective of this study was to evaluate a convenient, low-cost modification to conventional transfer methods for Atlantic halibut juveniles. A series of wire mesh cages were stacked within transport tanks creating a stratified transport system (STS), increasing the surface area for settlement and facilitating a more homogeneous distribution of halibut throughout the tank compared with the conventional insulated box (Unstructured, UTS). A stochastic cost-benefit analysis determined investment into a STS to be cost-effective, generating a mean benefit-cost ratio of 1.31 (95% CI, 0.68–2.00) after 2 years and a mean 5-year net present value of 85,176(9546,906–$125,630). The implementation of a STS was found to be technically feasible and economically efficient method to improve Atlantic halibut transport.Peter J. Sykes, Carol A. McClure, Debbie J.
