We all know in the meantime that it is incredibly important to get enough fluid in one day. Especially when the temperatures are outside, it is essential to drink enough, because if you do not, you can get a lot of health problems. What exactly can happen to your body if you do not drink enough? How many liter of water should you drink. We have put the nasty consequences for you in a row.
One of the first things that often happens when you do not get one and a half to two liters of water a day is that you get a headache. This is because especially your brain can not cope well with dehydration. Your brain consists of 75 percent water. When you become dehydrated, your brain has a shortage of water and you can get a headache. The headache is caused by the blood vessels in your brain expanding as much as possible to use the moisture that has remained behind. This causes the blood vessels to press against the brain membrane, causing you to get a headache. This changes again as soon as you drink water.
If you drink too little and your brain does not get enough fluid, you may also experience dizziness. You will mainly suffer from this if you regularly drink too little. This is because too little oxygen can reach your brain. Drinking water will cause this dizziness to go away again.
If you drink enough water in a day, so between one and a half and two liters per day, the chances are small that you have a bladder infection. That is because you will regularly have to visit the toilet, where any bacteria present will be washed away when urinating. If you do not drink enough, you will have to go to the bathroom less often and it is more likely that bacteria will reach your urethra. This can give you bladder inflammation.
Too little drinking can also ensure that you get dry skin. Your skin cells need moisture to function properly. When you drink too little in a day, your skin cells shrink and you get drier skin. Drinking water from a water cooler from Prestige Water Cooler Brisbane will help adding minerals to your skin.
Your heart rate is also influenced by how much you drink in a day. By drinking too little, your heart rate goes up to keep your blood flow going. Because of a high heart rate you can become restless and get a rushed feeling. In addition, you can also get ailments such as headaches. Here too, the only solution is to drink more water. Lose weight by drinking water.
Water ... source of life, source of health.
We can happily praise for so much healthy water. Our water is so good that we do not need bottled water from all kinds of manufacturers. Tap water in the Netherlands may not be trendy, but it is very good for us.
We do know that we need to drink water regularly. Soft drinks, up to 7 cubes of sugar. Water from Prestige Water Cooler Brisbane contains no calories. One and a half to two liters of water a day, says the Nutrition Center, where coffee and tea can be added. They drive according to recent research, no moisture at all, as is sometimes claimed. The advice of one and a half to two liters of water amounts to 8 to 10 glasses per day. That seems a lot, especially if you work and you run from her to all the clients or residents entrusted to you to provide the much needed care.
Healthy drinks instead of water. Yet you have to take the time to drink water. Not only because our bodies are 85% water and a few percent less indicates that you are drying out. The moment you get thirsty is actually already too late ... you have to avoid thirst!
Besides pampering your body with a glass of water, you also increase your productivity and the quality of what you produce. As soon as you get thirsty, you become more sloppy, slower, irritated, and your short-term memory slows down. That is quite a lot ... to solve with a glass of water!
Drinking nine glasses of water a day. That's a glass every one and a half to two hours, assuming you're 16 hours and taking 8 hours of sleep. Difficult? No. Difficult? Perhaps. Because you have to braid that water drink through your activities or activities. But above all: you have to be aware that you have to drink water, and now you do. If you are aware of drinking water now, then you must also take action. This sounds like god-knows-what needs to be done. That is of course not the case, but it turns out that sensation does not always lead to action, especially if you are not thirsty. But you have to avoid thirst, remember?
So build in your working day and environment fixed moments when you drink a glass of water, whether you are hungry or not. You can put a can of water on your office, possibly with some mint or a slice of lemon. Yummy! Or such a nice bottle that is ecologically sound and not made of that softened plastic that is not healthy for you. You can simply clean such a bottle in the dishwasher, or by hand. There you can also add something to the water if you do not like water solo. Personally, I think water is the best thirst quencher there is ... oh! Mistake, then I'm already too late ... I have to drink water before, nothing thirst quencher!

Drinking plenty of water! Give the body what it needs: Water. You read and hear everywhere that you have to drink water to be healthy and preferably a lot too. But why is drinking water so important for a healthy body? We list five convincing reasons about why drinking lots of water is healthy.
You can stimulate your fat burning by drinking enough water. Those who drink more water have a fat burning system that works 3% faster. Fat cells contain various toxins or toxins that are released when you lose weight. Those unnecessary toxins will leave your body faster if you drink approximately 1.5 liters of water every day.
Drinking enough water is essential for a healthy body. Your body consists of about 70% water and needs moisture all day so that all your organs remain sufficiently hydrated. This is important for the proper functioning of your body. When you absorb less water, your body functions function less well. Drinking water ensures that the moisture balance is maintained and that everything continues to work properly.
Sometimes your brain confuses thirst with hunger, so you often grab a snack instead of a glass of water. Don't you drink an extra glass of water when you think you're hungry, bet that the feeling of hunger will soon be over?
Lemon water health benefits.Those who do not like dry water can always choose to add a natural seasoning such as lemon or a natural extract such as SkinnyLove to the water. That way the water gets more taste and you get extra fiber and vitamins.
Water ensures that all unnecessary toxins disappear from your body and keeps your skin healthy. If you drink a lot of water, you will immediately see the result on the skin. After only a few days of drinking more water, you will see that your skin looks less dry and feels much softer than before. Moisture and drinking water.
Finally, water is also just healthy. It contains no calories and no sugar, while quenching your thirst like no other drink. It is also much better than a can of soda or fruit juice full of sugars and fats. We know what we choose! 5 Reasons why drinking water is good for your heart, brain and metabolism.
Anyone who proclaims that drinking water is healthy is therefore right. So putting aside other drinks and focusing on water has nothing but benefits for your body! Questions?

Our story is a simple one. For us it is not only about making furniture, it is also about quality, craftsmanship and creating the perfect surroundings that define a home where one can relax and get that special feeling of good company, good wine, good food and a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I work towards my goal and vision of designing and creating high quality furniture for all aspects of life. Most of my designs are inspired by the 20th century industrial era as well as the clean cuts well known from the Danish mid-century design traditions.
We incorporate reclaimed materials into our designs where we feel that it will contribute to the overall look of the piece. The term reclaimed is very popular these days and we have come to realize that using reclaimed materials, we might contribute to destruction of old and otherwise well-preserved structures. For us the word reclaimed means bringing something old back – this could be the materials themselves or the revival of traditional craftsmanship techniques. It can also be an perspective on design and ways of thinking about design, functionality and longevity so that each individual piece of furniture can be passed on for generations to come – thereby contributing to a sustainable future. My profession and formal training is in metal fabrication, but I have a true passion for woodworking so I try to combine them in my work as much as possible.
My name is Chris Demant and I am the owner, designer and craftsman at Reclaimed by Demant, LLC.
I am a Dane by citizenship, but American by heart.
Ever since I can remember I have been interested in building things. When I was 2 years old, my dad got a job offer and took the family overseas from Denmark to Atlanta where we lived for 5 years. During the years in Atlanta I became familiar with woodworking as I drove around the neighborhood in my little electric car looking for houses that were being renovated. Here I traded cold Coca Colas for wood pieces and began building small furniture pieces on the porch. When my parents could no longer store any more of the completed pieces, they were put outside on the front lawn for the public to buy. I know for a fact and am proud to say that until this day some of those pieces still exist and are in use.
When my family decided to move back to Denmark in 1995, I continued the woodworking in my grandmothers basement where I created both wood and metal pieces. After primary school I attended the Danish technical school and a 4-year apprenticeship and graduated as a metal fabricator specializing in stainless steel. After graduation I worked as a metal fabricator in the food and dairy industry, which brought me to work in countries like Singapore, China, Sweden, Norway and the Netherlands, providing me an endless source of inspiration for my projects.
During my spare time I went back to working with wood learning all the traditional carpentry methods as well as reclaiming the old blacksmithing methods.
In 2009 I stumbled into a woman that turned out to be the perfect match for me – my wife Ann. She quickly saw something in me, that I didn’t see myself at that time – an artist. We quickly became a couple, moved in together, married and planned for the future. Only weeks after meeting each other I invited her to see what I considered my second home, Atlanta. Within hours of arriving she felt home and we started planning a future that would give us the possibility to follow our common dream of a work environment where our creative potential can be realized and where we at the same time can create a unique experience for each of our customers. | 2019-04-24T12:20:15 | https://www.reclaimedbydemant.com/atlanta-handcrafted-furniture/ |

E-Wood is a two component epoxy wood putty used to fill in wood voids in decayed wood. It can be textured to match the appearance of the surrounding wood. Hardened E-Wood filler can be sanded, shaped and stained. Soft or decayed wood should be consolidated with M-Balm first before applying E-Wood.
That E-Wood is great! Thanks for selling that, it sure took care of that log rot problem, and your free webinar kept me on the right track with this project.
I found this product to be fairly easy to work with. Our home had a couple of places where animals had chewed on the logs in the past, so we wanted to fill in those areas. We cleaned those areas up, then applied a little M-Balm, and then put the E-Wood right on top of it. We had to sand it down a little, but it does look pretty good so far. We are going to stain over it soon.
We used the E-Wood after Shell-Guard and M-Balm to restore some decayed wood on our log home. We are very pleased! | 2019-04-21T09:10:33 | https://store.permachink.com/p-43-e-wood.aspx |
Spring brings about the most beautiful natural wonders, and San Diego has been receiving an abundance of them this year! All over San Diego, natural beauties can be seen, making for a more unique side of San Diego!
The Flower Fields, located in Carlsbad, California, just 30 mins away from downtown San Diego, are the perfect location for an afternoon stroll. The flowers seen blooming here are ranunculus, specifically buttercup ranunculus. Colors from white, pink, orange, yellow, and mixed varieties can be seen blooming from mid-March, all the way to Mother’s Day weekend in May. The weekends are filled with local venders serving refreshing beverages and snacks, along with tractor rides through the gardens. The Flower Fields are open seven days a week, being the perfect location for photos!
Located in the town of Escondido, San Diego, 30 mins from downtown, the San Diego Safari Park, sisters to the San Diego Zoo (link zoo post here), features their butterfly display from March 11-April 23. Visitors can walk into a butterfly sanctuary filled with these colorful friends. The brighter the color clothing you wear, the better chance a butterfly will land on you. Have your cameras ready, these fast little creatures will buzz around in a moment’s notice. Butterfly food, which is watermelon soaked in nectar, is sold in the park to increase the chances of butterflies landing on you!
While at the park, be sure to check out the Lorikeet Landing, a live aviary filled with colorful birds that you can feed, along with the Cheetah Run, watching the cheetahs run in seconds across a grass field!
With the increased amount of rain Southern California has received this past winter, there is a ‘Super Bloom’ of wild flowers in the desert! An hour and a half day trip from downtown San Diego, these bright wildflowers can be seen covering this small desert town. While here, be sure to stop in Coyote Canyon to see the flowers, along with the flowers on Henderson Canyon Road. Environmentalists have been discussing how this ‘Super Bloom’ could be once in a lifetime, with record breaking blooms!
If you don’t want to drive roundtrip in one day, La Casa del Zorro, a small resort and spa I stumbled upon while day tripping, is the perfect location to stay at, or camping is also an option.
*Photos were taken in late March.
Located one hour from downtown, the Temecula Blueberry Farm opens up to visitors in May, where you can enjoy picking your own fresh berries. The blueberries are grown on a large open farm, in the hills of Temecula, a neighboring town of San Diego. This is the perfect trip for families, and a picnic can even be taken up here! If you are here without kids, I recommend pairing this trip with Wilson Creek Winery, to taste some local almond champagne!
With the weather being enjoyable and warm, spring is the perfect time of the year to wine taste. With over 115 wineries just in San Diego, it is time to start taking advantage of all the local wine! I enjoy going to Orfila Winery, which is near the Safari Park in Escondido. The property is stunning, the tastings are open to the public, and there are so many photo ops!
With the superbloom of flowers, wild flowers can be seen literally everywhere, even on the side of the road, like the photos above. Located off Poinsettia and PCH in Carlsbad, there are countless fields of these yellow wild flowers, with a ton of buds that haven’t even opened yet! Chasing this superbloom is one of the best spring time activities to do, because it may be awhile before we get this again! | 2019-04-21T02:25:27 | https://www.thejessicajourney.com/home/2018/1/10/7-spring-time-activities-nature-beauties-in-san-diego |
Thanks so much for playing along everyone.
I had a heck of a tiring couple of days, and was actually in bed at 7 this evening.
I woke up with a jolt, thinking "Oops! I'm supposed to do the Upsy Daisy draw tonight!!!"
It's always a thrill to see your stuff in the mags...these two pubs are pubs 5 and 6 for me.
Now...I want to show you these cute jingly jangly earrings I got the other day.I took my girls to get haircuts after school, and the owner of the salon was unpacking some new shiny sparkly stuff.
I spotted these earrings, put them right on, paid and walked out wearing them ...instant gratification is the name of the game!
Don't forget the Upsy Daisy givaway.
This week has been awsome!
Sooooo, to celebrate, I'm giving away some "Upsy Daisy" goodies.
I have the entire "Bebe" line of papers; some rub-ons and a stamp set.
Anyone else ready for some sunshine?
Thought I'd make a card.
Hoping it can twist Mother Nature's arm a bit.
I've been playing along in a "Use Your Stash" challenge at one of my online hangouts and this has been great in that I've been unearthing a treasure-trove of goodies I've plain forgotten about.
In other news, I was happy to discover yesterday that a winner of my RAK last week, Yve, actually lives right here in St.Paul!
Wow, talk about small world.
Tonight is my Spanish class, and it's going really well. I kinda prefer it when the class moves fast rather than at a more leisurly pace...I almost learn/retain more that way.
The other night Hubs and I watched a movie which had a bit of non-subtitled Spanish dialoge and I managed to translate it...correctly...I think.
Needless to say the Hubs was muyo impressed and is now busy planning exotic trips to Spanish speaking lands...Oy vey!
Ms Kelli, come on down!
Today I have a LOAD of gorgeous ribbon and trims for you.
There are 23-24 different types of trim here.
You will get twill, grosgrain, satin, lace, ric-rac, GIANT ric-rac, satin-edged sheers, printed twill and so so much more.
Sorry I'm late with this draw...it suddenly got muyo busy here the last couple days.
Anywhoooooo....I printed out all the comments up to the end of yesterday, snipped 'em up, popped them into Hubby's cap and pulled one out (sounds like a lot of work right?
So, without further ado, would Yve please e-mail me at [email protected] and let me have your postal details.
I am loving the Grammys this year.
The last couple years were a bit lacklustre but this year the performers were AWSOME!!!
Al Green and Justin Timberlake!
Jennifer Hudson (love love love her!!!) and Coldplay (brilliant!).
Hubs is at work tonight and the kiddies are in bed.
Here's our little Zuzzi, who woke up to a runny nose and some minor congestion this a.m.
A quick update on my excercise regime.
I've been treadmilling for 4 weeks now.
Averaging 35 minutes per day.
I think I'm starting to see results.
My earlobes look waaaaaaay skinnier.
Ben & Jerry's all around, I say!
I'll be collecting comments until the end of this weekend.
One promise I made to myself at the end of last year was to PURGE my scrappy stuff regularly.
Well, I'm a little late since January just ended.
Here's a page I did last week.
Okay, I'm off to conjugate Spanish verbs...F-U-U-U-N!!!
...what followed me home this weekend!!!
"You have good Husband...good Husband"
Then she looked me up, head to toe, and says "Well, beautiful wife needs beautiful things"
Someone should put that down in a book of famous quotes.

Have a great week ya'll!! | 2019-04-26T01:58:37 | http://lacintha.blogspot.com/2009/02/ |
The ABCERI declined 2.26% in September largely due to a reversal in Energy markets. Gasoline and Heating Oil led the decline followed by Crude. Cotton produced a small gain which offset some of the loss in Ags while Soybeans produced the overall sector loss.
The ABCERI is down 2.66% YTD 2013. The index continues to outperform (see table below) most of the comparable indices on the year. The strategy now holds 5 long components or 42% of the possible basket.
The following table highlights the strategy’s ability to capture the upside while limiting the downside.
The ABCERI does not attempt to simply track the broad commodity markets or predict their direction, but rather aims to tactically capture upward price trends from those commodities that are making sustained moves higher while protecting capital on those that are making sustained moves lower.
As outlined in an independent report by ETF Securities, the Auspice Broad Commodity Index remains one of the top performing global broad commodity indices. If you would like a copy of the most recent report, please contact Auspice.
In September, the ABCERI was flat 1 of 3 broad sectors.
Energy markets declined with Gasoline providing the largest loss to the index. Heating Oil and Crude Oil also retracted from their long term trend upwards. There is no Natural Gas weight currently.
The index remains without a long weight in Metals.
The Ag sector was mixed in September with Cotton providing a good gain however not enough to mitigate the loss from Soybeans. The index has no weight in Wheat, Corn or Sugar due to long term declining trends in these markets.
While the past few years have been challenging for commodities, remaining tactically exposed has proven advantageous given the non-correlated diversification benefits. It is the continued goal of the ABCERI index strategy to minimize the downside with low volatility and drawdown and remain a store of value until upside opportunity presents itself.
We believe that commodities provide important diversification for investors however proper risk management and downside protection must also play a key role in any investment decision.
The Auspice Broad Commodity Index aims to capture upward trends in the commodity markets while minimizing risk during downtrends. The index, which is considered to be a “third generation commodity index”, considers both risk and reward. The index uses a quantitative methodology to track either long or flat weights in a diversified portfolio of 12 commodity futures which cover the Energy, Metal, and Agricultural sectors.
Auspice Indices utilize dynamic risk management to produce superior risk adjusted performance in a variety of market environments. By dynamically managing the volatility of each commodity, Auspice ensures that no one commodity dominates the index thus maximizing the benefits of commodity diversification. Enhanced contract roll optimization further increases performance. On a risk adjusted basis, the Auspice Broad Commodity Total Return Index significantly outperforms its global peers.
The Broad Commodity index is available in Total and Excess Return versions. The cash return for the total return index will be calculated daily using the 3-month CDOR (Canadian Dealer Offered Rate). The CDOR is the average rate for Canadian bankers' acceptances for specific terms-to-maturity (one year or less), determined daily from a survey on bid-side rates provided by the principal market-makers, including the major Canadian banks.
Auspice is an innovative asset manager that specializes in applying formalized investment strategies across a broad range of commodity and financial markets. Auspice’s portfolio managers are seasoned institutional commodity traders. Their experience, trading one of the most volatile asset classes, forms the backbone of their strategy for generating profits while preserving capital and dynamically managing risk.
Auspice Capital Advisors Ltd. is a registered Portfolio Manager / Investment Fund Manager / Exempt Market Dealer in Canada and a registered Commodity Trading Advisor (CTA) and National Futures Association (NFA) member in the US. Auspice’s core expertise is managing risk and designing and executing systematic trading strategies.

Jamaica, a Caribbean island nation, has a lush topography of mountains, rainforests and reef-lined beaches. Many of its all-inclusive resorts are clustered in Montego Bay, with its British-colonial architecture, and Negril, known for its diving and snorkeling sites. Jamaica is famed as the birthplace of reggae music, and its capital Kingston is home to the Bob Marley Museum, dedicated to the famous singer. The greater part of Jamaica is a limestone plateau, with an average elevation of about 460 m (1,500 ft). The interior of the island is largely mountainous, and peaks of over 2,100 m (7,000 ft) are found in the Blue Mountains, which dominate the eastern part of the island; the highest point on the island is Blue Mountain Peak, at 2,256 m (7,402 ft) above sea level.
The coastal plains are largely alluvial, and the largest plains areas lie along the south coast. The island has numerous interior valleys. There are many rivers, but most are small, with rapids and falls that make navigation virtually impossible for any distance.
The official Language is English but Patios, a dialect, is widely spoken across the island.
The money in Jamaica is called Jamaican Dollars (JMD). Bank notes are issued for the following amounts $50, $100, $500 and $1000. One Jamaican dollar is equal to about $0.01 USD US dollars. The exchange rates change everyday.
The climate ranges from tropical at sea level to temperate in the uplands; there is relatively little seasonal variation in temperature. The average annual temperature in the coastal lowlands is 27°c (81°f); for the Blue Mountains, 13°c (55°f). The rainy seasons are May to June and September to November. The period from late August to November has occasionally been marked by destructive hurricanes.
Electric power in Jamaica is almost the same as in the United States and Canada. In Jamaica the power sockets are of type A and B. The standard voltage is 110 V and the standard frequency is 50 Hz.

All children, teenagers and adults at the Open Door Centre take part in some form of gymnastics or sport activity according to their interest and ability.
The activities aim to offer the participants the satisfaction of action, movement, team-spirit and achievement, with the overall purpose of improving their physical condition and their health and well-being.
The main structure of the programme is focused on group activities, but individual needs are taken into account.
One of the chief purposes is the integration and participation of children from other mainstream or normal schools and many joint activities are organized.

Here are two quick tips for improving your pass code strengths and remembering passwords.
1. Turn off your computer or Pad or Smart Phones ‘Remember Password’ option.
Firstly this is safer for you if you ever lose your phone or computer and secondly, it means that you have to remember the password yourself. For a start, you may have to work hard to remember it but after logging on or registering it a few times you will soon have it safely locked into your memory.
Using your phone or computer to remember it for you will never get YOU to remember it!
2. I remember shapes better than I can numbers or passwords so why not use shapes for your bank card pin?
How about remembering the pin: 7415369563214789 could you remember that one?
Actually its really easy to remember and you can do it too – be ready to amaze yourself!
Just trace the letters ‘Me’ on a numerical pad you will get this number…Try it!
…which means that you can have a long complicated pin that would be really difficult to break by using a simple letter or word which is really easy to remember!
Do you have any other Quick Tips for remembering passwords and codes? Tell us in the comments box, we would love to hear more.

Expanding habitat protection is a common tactic for species conservation. When unprotected habitat is privately owned, decisions must be made about which areas to protect by land purchase or conservation easement. To address this problem, we developed an optimization framework for choosing the habitat-protection strategy that minimizes the risk of population extinction subject to an upper bound on funding. The framework is based on the idea that an extinction-risk function that predicts the relative effects of varying the quantity and quality of habitat can be estimated from the results of a demographic model of population viability. We used the framework to address the problem of expanding the protected habitat of a core population of the endangered San Joaquin kit fox ( Vulpes macrotis mutica) in the Panoche area in central California. We first developed a stochastic demographic model of the kit fox population. Predictions from the simulation model were used to estimate an extinction-risk function that depended on areas of good- and fair-quality habitat. The risk function was combined with costs of habitat protection to determine cost-efficient protection strategies and risk-cost curves showing how extinction risk could be reduced at minimum cost for increasing levels of funding. One important result was that cost-efficient shares of the budget used to protect different types of habitat changed as the budget increased and depended on the relative costs of available habitat and the relative effects of habitat protection on extinction risk. Another important finding was the sensitivity of the location and slope of the risk-cost curve to assumptions about the spatial configuration of available habitat. When the location and slope of the risk-cost curve are sensitive to model assumptions, resulting predictions of extinction risk and risk reduction per unit cost should be used very cautiously in ranking conservation options among different species or populations. The application is an example of how the results of a complex demographic model of population viability can be synthesized for use in optimization analyses to determine cost-efficient habitat-protection strategies and risk-cost tradeoffs.

They made a concerted effort to take better care of the customer AFTER the sale with speedier parts delivery to dealers and improved responsiveness to customer questions and complaints.
Many in business too often forget that building a valuable brand doesn’t really start with a logo, tagline, beautiful photography, slick websites or clever advertising. In fact, the birthing of a trusted brand doesn’t generally start in the marketing department at all. Oftentimes, it starts in engineering. Or in customer experience planning. Or even with dealer loyalty programs. It starts by being the best at something, and ultimately becoming a leading brand because of it.
I’d argue that consumers may not be loyal to some of the P&G brands anymore, but it’s not necessarily because consumers have changed. It’s because the brands have lost their leadership edge. As they were mimicked and copied, they failed to continually and relevantly differentiate.
Take retail in general. Retail brand after retail brand is closing stores right and left. Just recently it was announced that Sears and Kmart are closing 43 more stores. J.C. Penney – 138 stores. Macy’s – 68 stores. Payless ShoeSource – 512 stores. Radio Shack – 1,000 stores. And while the list goes on, the point isn’t that “consumers just aren’t buying so stores are closing.” The point is that consumer shopping preferences were changing, and these brands failed to recognize it and adapt. For example, had someone else in retail leadership seen the future and power of the Internet the way Amazon’s Jeff Bezos did, perhaps THEY would have created the best shopping experience on the web ... and ended up with the same bucket of money that Bezos now has.
And it doesn’t always take leading edge technology or product innovations to be the best. Case-in-point: Chick-fil-A.
This brand continues to confound the market as it seemingly competes with one arm tied behind it’s back year after year (closed on Sundays), yet consistently reports the highest per-square-foot retail sales among ALL fast food joints. Incredible! And what’s their edge? Where are they the best? I’d submit that it’s not necessarily the food or the stores themselves but simply the way they treat the customer. Yes, a brand can be best at being nice. And it can pay off BIG TIME. Just ask the cows at Chick-fil-A.
So what does this mean for your brand? Well, if you’re not already best at something, ask yourself where you COULD be best. List out the options. Discuss them with your leadership team. Then create a plan to relentlessly focus on your difference — but keeping your eyes on the horizon so you don’t get caught down the road being irrelevant. And someday, you just may be first. | 2019-04-19T10:48:48 | https://www.huebnermarketing.com/single-blog/news-flash-great-brands-are-not-born-in-the-marketing-department |

We wanted to go to le Vauban restaurant which offers some of the best value for money in Antibes, but unfortunately it was fully booked so we had to find another place. A restaurant I used to go often when I worked in Mougins is le Brûlot, famous for their magrets de canard cooked in a woodfire oven, but it was also closed today at lunch time. Considering Antibes is quite a popular tourist destination, having the largest marina in Europe, its old town and fortress, there are quite a few tourist trap restaurants so we were a little worried. We decided to go to this one, nicely located at the place nationale between many other restaurants.
Their main promotion was a moules frites formula at 12.50 euros (marinière, oriental, with cream, with safran). They also had roasted chicken with fries (9 euros), lasagne with salad (10 euros) and as meal of the day they had a sirloin with mushrooms and cream (12 euros), gambas à la provençale (shrimps cooked with tomatos, onions and garlic – 14.50 euros) and a couscous maison (home made couscous – 15.50 euros). They have woodfire-baked pizzas too.
We ordered a sole meunière (butter fried sole – 23 euros) and a magret de canard au poivre (duck breast with pepper sauce – 18 euros). As drinks we have a bottle of sparkling water Badoit (5.70 euros) and a 25 cl carafe of red wine (5 euros). The wine was very average.
The sole meunière (butter fried sole) was very good. It was nicely seasoned and the fish perfectly cooked – firm, and easy to slide off the bones. With a touch of lemon juice, was really a perfect lunch. It was served with some new potatoes, and a small salad and green beans. I wouldn’t hesitate to take this dish again.
The magret de canard (duck) was a little strange. It looked they removed the fat from the top of it… Well usually people like the fat when it is well cooked so it becomes crispy. The meat itself was not bad but the pepper sauce was on the too salty side, a little like at French restaurant Gastro in Clapham Common (London) by the way. The fries could have been warmer.
Cost and conclusion: it was 51.70 euros. The lunch was ok, but nothing special. Same with the service. There are better restaurants around offering much better value for money like le Vauban, le Brûlot Pasta or la Gravette within 2 minutes walk.
A good way to digest lunch is to walk around the marina! | 2019-04-25T18:05:19 | http://www.trusted-gourmet.com/2009/09/restaurant-pizzeria-chez-marguerite-in-antibes/ |

Earl Weaver Baseball was a possible unreleased game by Electronic Arts.
A Chips & Bits advertisement from the May 1992 issue of Gamepro listed a title called "Weaver Baseball", which I assume is related to Earl Weaver Baseball II, which was released on DOS in 1991. It is possible that EA was planning a SNES release of this game. | 2019-04-21T03:23:36 | http://snescentral.com/article.php?id=1081 |

Bloomberg reports that Samsung will reportedly unveil its long rumoured smartwatch on September 4th. According to the publication, the South Korean company will call the product the Galaxy Gear, which will include similar functionality to a smartphone. It’s not entirely clear if the watch will operate independently of a smartphone or pair as a companion device, but Bloomberg alludes to the ability to make phone calls.
In addition, the watch will apparently allow wearers to check their email and browse the internet. That seems a little impractical for a small screen device that’s supposed to sit on your wrist, but we’ll have to see how Samsung will implement all the features that have been mentioned by Bloomberg. The publication did quash rumours of a flexible display, however, but noted that Samsung is continuing to research the technology.
Bloomberg’s report corroborates a similar claim made by SamMobile. The site also believes that the Galaxy Gear will make an appearance on September 4th, going on to say that the watch will work alongside current Galaxy smartphones running Android.
We’re also expecting to see the Galaxy Note 3 at Samsung’s September 4th event a few days before the official IFA 2013 event kicks off on September 6th. Rumoured specifications for Samsung’s latest Note entry include a 5.7-inch 1080p Super AMOLED display, a Snapdragon 800 SoC, 3GB of RAM, and a 13-megapixel camera with optical image stabilisation. | 2019-04-19T04:23:52 | https://recombu.com/mobile/article/samsung-galaxy-gear-smartwatch-announcement-rumour_m19459-html |

Systems of electronic QMATIC queue are a simple solution to the complex problems of optimization of customer service in different types of organizations. Such systems are becoming increasingly popular among companies around the world, who are fastidious to the quality of service to its customers. On one hand, for the institutions and the organizations that implement it, they can solve the problems of queue management and distribution of loads on the personnel, and on the other hand, they improve the service for their visitors. By monitoring the queues, you raise the prestige of the company and significantly simplify the work of your employees.
ES «DOGRULYK», being the official partner of Qmatic, offers complete solutions for the installation of electronic queue systems of different “turn-key” complexity on the basis of equipment that has been manufactured by the world leader in this field.
hardware warranty and software support for 12 months.
In the service hall, the visitor chooses the service of his interest or a department on a touch screen terminal (kiosk) and is registered in the electronic queue. Having received the ticket with the number of registration and reference information (place and time of the service, the approximate waiting time, etc.), the visitor waits for its call by the registration number, which will appear on a special board of electronic queue. At the same time, he can estimate the time until his call and comfortably spend this waiting time doing other things. Seeing his number, he comes up to the window or to a desk operator, the number of which is displayed on the Main monitor. Thus, “Electronic Queue”, the traffic management system of users, organizes and distributes the visitors, eliminating a chaos and an uncertainty in the service hall.
the implementation of multipartite services’ algorithms becomes possible (with the need to visit multiple “windows”, and making several successive actions).
an overall improvement in the quality of work in the office.

Here I'm sharing some pictures and a short video of our mini trip from Monday (February 25) that we made to practice and talk about firearms safety with our son.
"TEACH YOUR KIDS ABOUT FIREARMS SAFETY"
Today we played with pulleys by getting our lizard friends up in the tree.
We search for sticks, rocks, acorns, and other things to create a shelter in the mud for our lizard Leo.
Today Alfredito and I went to our 1st Tinkergarten class. It was great to go outside and learn while playing.
"Tinkergarten is on a mission to elevate childhood. We’re growing a technology-enabled network of leaders that bring families together in a natural place in their community for classes where kids learn through play. Each class becomes a tight-knit group of children and adults who learn together through well-designed, outdoor play-based activities. We help kids develop a host of important capabilities, including empathy, collaboration, creativity, persistence and problem solving. Our expert-designed classes and activities help kids ages 18 months—8 years develop core life skills while enjoying healthy, fun, engaging experiences in the physical freedom of local green spaces."
Our Tinkergarten Teacher is Ashley Deer. Alfredo was shy at the beginning of the class and she knew exactly what to do. He started participating and enjoying all the activities.
Alfredo practice his focus skills during the lizard hunt.
This is our 4th visit to Vail, Colorado! We enjoy the peacefulness of the place.

Cold Spaghetti Salad | Medical Division - Articles on medical subjects every half hour!
This recipe has certainly been a lifesaver over the years. My sister, Debra first introduced me to this delicious salad a few years ago. It's so economic to make and only has a few ingredients. Sometimes, homemade salads can get quite expensive but not this one. It really is a budget stretcher and it's certainly a show stopper on any table.
I really enjoy making this cold spaghetti salad because it's easy to make, packed with lots of flavor, and it never fails to satisfy. Every time I make this recipe it is the talk of the table. In fact I just made it this past Labor Day for a cookout at my niece house. Everyone loved it and it was the first salad to disappear. The cucumbers and tomatoes give this recipe extra freshness which make this recipe truly unforgetable. Once you make it, you'll be making it quite often and you'll always remember how delicious this recipe is.
Even though this is a salad, I normally serve with my appetizer menu because it goes with so many appetizer dishes-both hot and cold including meat balls, chicken wings, seafood dishes as well as turkey and ham sandwiches which are all the making of a great appetizer menu. And it's a great addition to your holiday menu without the fuss and long hours putting together. This cold spaghetti salad is surly a winner and is a welcoming addition to any menu. Enjoy and please share this recipe.
Place spaghetti in a large bowl or pan; season spaghetti well with garlic powder. Add about 4 ounces of Pesto sauce to cold spaghetti; mix well. Refrigerate. One hour before serving, add cucumbers and tomatoes; add season salt and black pepper as needed. Mix well making sure all ingredients are covered with the pesto sauce. If more Pesto sauce is needed, add according to taste. Mix well. Serve cold. Yield: 6 to 8 servings. Enjoy and please share this recipe.
Tip: I usually purchase my tomatoes and cucumbers during the summer from the local farmer's market.

Trophic status of different waterfalls in the highlands of west and northwest regions of Cameroon was assessed by using diatomic index. Ten waterfalls were sampled, in the rainy season (August, September and October 2008) and dry season (January, February and March 2009). Diatomic index and species dominance were calculated. Diatom samples were collected upstream and downstream of each waterfall by scraping the rocks. Samples were treated with oxygenated water to destroy organic matter. Two to three drops of prepared sample were used to mount permanent slides. Identification was made using a light microscope. Diatoms species were observed at 1000x. The state of poor ecological status and moderate ecological status were the most observed respectively during rainy and dry season. The Balatchi waterfall was the most degraded and was characterized by the absence of aquatic plant called Podostemceae. Diatomic index varying between 2.27 and 3.76. Dominant species were Gomphonema parvulumand Navicula leptostriata (upstream), Cymbella amphicephala and Gomphonema parvulum var. lagermanii (downstream). The less degraded non Podostemaceae waterfall was Metchie and index values varied between 2.99 and 4.23. The most degraded Podostemaceae waterfalls was Anyajua. | 2019-04-19T04:33:56 | http://journalcra.com/article/trophic-status-some-waterfalls-sudano-guinean-highland-zones-cameroon |
Supermodel Twiggy, Python Michael Palin and England manager Gareth Southgate are among more than 1,000 people awarded in the New Year Honours 2019.
The list celebrates heroes – from 43 responders to terror attacks, to the divers who stunned the world in the Thai cave rescue.
But there are also awards for Dark Knight director Christopher Nolan, Downton Abbey’s Jim Carter and authors Philip Pullman and Margaret Atwood.
And a cronyism row is set to brew after Theresa May rewarded big business chiefs who just happen to back her Brexit deal.
There are plenty of famous faces in the honours list – but far more people who quietly work away at doing good for their communities.
So to honour them all, we’ve reproduced the list in full – and highlights – below.
Overall, 1,148 recipients are named in the 2019 New Year list.
That includes the 43 people recognised for their acts responding to the terror attacks in Manchester and London in 2017.
The oldest is 100-year-old World War Two veteran Robert Lingwood, who gets a BEM for services to the community in County Tyrone.
43 people who responded to the Manchester and London terror attacks have been named in the New Year Honours.
Among them is Special Sergeant Jared Simpson, one of the first officers on the scene at the Manchester Arena on the night of 22 May last year.
Suicide bomber Salman Abedi had just detonated a homemade device laden with shrapnel in the lobby of the Arena at the end of an Ariana Grande concert, killing 22 people, the youngest just eight years old.
“My first thought is always for the victim or victims that have been affected by whatever I am dealing with, and they will always be my first priority,” Sgt Simpson said, after learning of his British Empire Medal for services to policing.
Other honours include an OBE for Paul Woodrow, Director of Operations at the London Ambulance Service; an OBE for Joy Ongcachuy, a theatre nurse at Barts Hospital; and a BEM for Theresa Lam, the Family Liaison Lead for Greater Manchester Police.

Seven firefighters who saved elderly residents from a serious blaze at a care home in Cheshunt in 2017 are also honoured.

But fans could be angered by an OBE for outgoing Premier League chief Richard Scudamore – topping up his £5m departure bonus.
Motor neurone disease sufferer and former Scottish rugby player George “Doddie” Weir gets an OBE for services to rugby, motor neurone disease research, and the community in the Scottish Borders.
Theresa May was embroiled in a cronyism row last night after she announced that a prominent Brexiteer had been made a privy counsellor ahead of her meaningful vote on Brexit.
Sir Edward Leigh, who has yet to announce how he will vote on the deal, said earlier this month that the Prime Minister’s efforts to secure concessions from Brussels could yet pay off.
Two other Tory MPs who have both said they will back the Prime Minister’s plans were also appointed to the secretive official body – Philip Dunne and Sir Roger Gale.
It came after hardline Brexiteer John Redwood – one of the Eurosceptic Cabinet ministers branded “bastards” by John Major – was knighted in the New Year’s Honours list.
With the crunch vote due next month, speculation has been swirling at Westminster honours may be deployed as a means of luring MPs to back the Prime Minister.
In an apparent bid to reassure supporters that he will not be swayed by his gong, Mr Redwood published a blog just days ahead of the announcement outlining “Eight things wrong with the withdrawal agreement”.
Tory MP Gary Streeter, who backed Remain in the 2016 referendum and has already made clear that he will support the PM, also received a knighthood.
Tory donor John H J Lewis, who has given thousands of pounds to the party, was awarded an OBE for philanthropt and supporting the arts.
Airbus UK chief Katherine Bennett, whose company had warned it might reconsider its investment in the UK in light of Brexit, but has now offered cautious support for the PM’s plan, gets an OBE.
German-born Siemens UK chief Jürgen Maier, who has also backed Mrs May’s deal over crashing out without a deal, receives a CBE.
Whitehall honours include a knighthood for HMRC chief executive Jon Thompson who received death threats after disclosing that a customs option preferred by Brexiteers would cost up to £20bn.
Knighthoods also go to Richard Heaton, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, Laurie Bristow, the UK ambassador to Moscow who dealt with the fall-out from the Salisbury poisoning and Roy Stone, who has served under seven PMs, latterly as an aide to the chief whip.
Mrs May’s deputy principal private secretary, William Macfarlane, gets a CBE for public service.
The model, born Lesley Hornby and dubbed the world’s first supermodel, has been awarded the title in the Queen’s New Year Honours list for her services to fashion, the arts and charity.
The 69-year-old told the Press Association: “It’s wonderful, but it makes me giggle.
“When we wake up every morning we turn to each other, my husband (Leigh Lawson) and I, and we just giggle. So it’s a very nice, warm feeling, and obviously I am very honoured.
“The hardest thing has been keeping it a secret, because we’ve known for about three-and-a-half weeks”.
His work on the Dark Knight trilogy as well as movies including The Prestige, Inception and Dunkirk brought him blockbuster success as well as an Oscar nomination.
Now, the 48-year-old can add a CBE to his already illustrious CV after being recognised for services to film in the New Year Honours.
In a 2005 interview with The Guardian, Nolan, who holds dual UK and US nationality, lamented the lack of support he received in the country of his birth while trying to break through in the film industry, reflecting: “But there’s a very limited pool of finance in the UK. To be honest, it’s a very clubby kind of place. In Hollywood there’s a great openness, almost a voracious appetite for new people.
The former Monty Python star, who gets a knighthood in the Diplomatic Service and Overseas list for his international contributions to travel, culture and geography, said news of the accolade had not sunk in yet.
She is alone this time round in receiving the highest honour it is possible to bestow in the New Year list.
The creator of the hugely successful His Dark Materials trilogy said he was “very surprised and honoured” to receive a knighthood for services to literature.
Carter, who played Mr Carson in the hit British period drama Downton Abbey, said he was “delighted” his OBE for services to drama came in time to be seen by his 99-year-old mother, who “lit up at the good news”.
Broadcaster and naturalist Chris Packham said “our wildlife needs a voice to shout above the noise” after being awarded a CBE for services to nature conservation.
Stagecoach co-founder Ann Gloag is to be made a dame for services to business and philanthropy, and former CEO of Virgin Money Jayne-Anne Gadhia also gets a damehood for services to the financial industry and to women in the industry.
Daphne Self, the world’s oldest working professional model at 90, gets a BEM for services to women and fashion, while the editor-in-chief of Harper’s Bazaar Glenda Bailey becomes a dame in the overseas list for services to the GREAT Britain Campaign and UK prosperity, charity, fashion and journalism.
Consultant plastic surgeon professor Simon Peter Jabir Kay, of Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, will get an OBE for services to complex reconstructive hand surgery, including hand transplantation.

November 2017 – "You Have Your Hands Full!"
Tell Me a Mitzi is a picture book written by Lore Segal and illustrated by Harriet Pincus. I was very excited about the opportunity to share this book with my girls because this was a book I remembered from my own childhood. We loved this book so much that we even named one of our cats Mitzi, and she was my mother’s favorite cat of all time. I still have my copy of this book on cassette, probably a relic from a Scholastic book flier.
The Secret Diaries of Miss Miranda Cheever is a historical romance novel written by Julia Quinn. It’s the first book in her Regency-era Bevelstoke trilogy. I did not have a chance to read this book when it was originally published in 2009, so I was very excited when it was available as part of an Audible sale.
Miranda Cheever is an only child, and she has formed a friendship with Olivia and Winston, the Bevelstoke twins who live nearby. Once day, her friends’ older brother Turner escorts her home. He is kind to her, and encourages her by suggesting that she keep a diary to look back on when she is grown up.
Marrying Winterborne is a historical romance novel by Lisa Kleypas. It’s the second book in her Ravenels series, and I recently listened to the audiobook via the Audible app. I had picked up the first two books in the series during a sale, and I started listening to this book almost immediately after finishing Cold-Hearted Rake.
Lady Helen has been sheltered for most of her life, rarely venturing away from the manor house in which she was raised. She has not encountered very many eligible young men, and finds Rhys Winterborne absolutely charming. Their courtship actually began in Cold-Hearted Rake, and I was very interested in seeing what was going to happen to Helen and Rhys.
I recently listened to the Audible edition of Cold-Hearted Rake by Lisa Kleypas. I have enjoyed many of Kleypas’ historical romance novels, and when this book popped up as part of an Audible sale, I took the opportunity to catch up on her return to the genre.
Devon Ravenel never expected to inherit his cousin’s title, and he journeys to his new manor house with the intent to sell the estate in parcels to pay off debts. However, upon his arrival, Devon becomes reacquainted with his three cousins, whose future is dependent on him now that their brother is dead.
The household also includes Kathleen, who had recently married the Earl of Trenear and now finds herself widowed and alone. She sees Devon’s arrival as an annoying interference, and she is especially disgusted by his plans to sell off the estate. Can she persuade him to change his mind?
This is a wonderful example of the enemies to friends trope. I enjoyed watching Devon and Kathleen’s relationship develop over the course of the novel. This was definitely not a case of insta-love. They each have qualms about commitment that they need to overcome as they consider what they mean to each other.
Another thing that I liked about this book is the inclusion of top-notch secondary plotlines. It is not terribly common for books in the genre to have narrative from the point of view of a secondary character, but it worked well here. It also set up the second book in the series very nicely.
I would absolutely recommend Cold-Hearted Rake. Devon and Kathleen are both likeable, and they have good chemistry. The secondary characters are well rounded as well; I especially enjoyed the twins. As soon as this book ended, I was ready to start the next book in the series! I am looking forward to reading the rest of the Ravenels series in the future!
The Silent Duke is the fourth book in Jess Michaels’ 1797 Club series of historical romance novels. I have not read any of the previous books in this series, but I belong to a group for fans of romance novels, and this book came up in response to a query about atypical heroes. Needless to say, I was very excited about the opportunity to read this book.
Ewan is the Duke of Donburrow, but his ascension to the dukedom was somewhat controversial. He is mute, and when he was a child, his father attempted to have him declared incompetent and relegated to an asylum. Ewan was rescued by relatives, who protected him from the machinations of his immediate family. Ewan inherited the title when his father passed away, despite the protests from his younger brothers.
The Ghost of Christmas Past is the 17th book in Rhys Bowen’s Molly Murphy mystery series. I am a big fan of Rhys Bowen, and I have read many (although not all) of the Molly Murphy books. I was definitely excited about the opportunity to read this book.
With This Christmas Ring is a historical romance novella written by Manda Collins. I’m a big fan of her Studies in Scandal series, so I was very excited about the opportunity to read this book.
Merry’s friend Charlotte died following childbirth, and Merry made a solemn promise to care for the tiny baby. Charlotte, who insisted that she was married, had been thrown out of her home when her husband failed to materialize. Now, it is up to Merry to track down the errant rogue, but doing so means that she must go back to a place she never thought she would. Five years ago, she broke off an engagement with Alex, the Viscount Wrotham, but given that his cousin is Charlotte’s alleged husband, Merry is left with little choice. Likewise, Alex is puzzled by Merry’s sudden reappearance in his life, and is determined not to let her slip away again.
No Other Duke Will Do is the third book in Grace Burrowes’ Windham Brides series of historical romance novels. This is only the second book of hers that I have read, but she is quickly becoming one of my favorites.
Julian St. David is the Duke of Haverford. The family seat is in Wales, where he is quite content to remain. However, the estate has fallen into financial ruin, mostly because his predecessors cared more about spending money on rare books than maintaining the estate. Despite this- or perhaps because of this- Julian’s sister suggests throwing a lavish house party so that Julian can find a wife.
The Bride Who Got Lucky is the second book in Janna MacGregor’s Cavensham Heiresses series of Regency-era historical romances. I thoroughly enjoyed the first book in the series-The Bad Luck Bride- so I was already looking forward to reading this book even without knowing anything about it.
Nick and Emma were secondary characters in The Bad Luck Bride, so I became even more excited when I found out that they had been paired together for The Bride Who Got Lucky. | 2019-04-20T20:45:22 | https://handsfullmama.com/2017/11/ |
Today, Cheryl & I went on a site visit to the Museum of Nature and as expected we were utterly impressed with the space and what it has to offer. Vendors, you will fall in love with this space because it truly reflects the “urban” nature of our wedding show. The concrete floors, high ceilings, loft style decor lend an all around uniqueness to our event. We know it’s gonna look pretty amazing in there come February 22nd.
Since the website’s been up and running and our invitations have been sent out to the selected group of vendors, we’ve already had the opportunity to chat and make contact with some awesome people. We hope all of them are able to participate in Tie The Knot in some capacity or another and look forward to many further dealings with these amazing small businesses. Who knew Ottawa had such great businesses ??? | 2019-04-23T09:53:24 | https://tietheknotweddingshow.com/site-visit/ |

The oil industry from upstream to downstream is a multi-faceted industry and a broad shop employing everyone from administrative staff to accountants, lawyers, chemists, production technologists, health and safety officers through to procurement, business economists and pilots. But its life blood is first finding and then producing commercial quantities of oil, and this starts with an understanding of the geology.
Anyone who is employed in the oil industry should have a basic understanding of this quest to find oil, how it starts, what the fundamentals are and what the exploration geologist is looking for to make a discovery. They should also be aware of the risks involved and what the geologist does to minimize these. When that commercial oil field has been found and is being produced, it is also necessary to have a basic understanding of how the geology influences the fundamentals of oil and gas production rates, water saturations and ultimately the oil field life upon which all these jobs depend.
This 5-day interactive GLOMACS Petroleum Geology for Non-Geologists training course has been designed to provide a high impact and holistic learning experience which will allow the non-technical staff members to understand the objectives and aims of a Petroleum Geo-scientist in his quest to find and replace oil reserves for the company. Through understanding comes improved communication and enhanced team and company performance.
This GLOMACS Petroleum Geology for Non-Geologists training seminar will be based around PowerPoint presentations for each module followed by interactive and participative individual and team exercises. There will also be workshop sessions based around real exploration and development examples to get participants to actively become aware of the critical role that an understanding and interpretation of the geology and the petroleum system plays in the oil industry. Some geological risking games will be undertaken so that participants can get an idea of how the risk element combined with exploration costs can lead to strategic decisions being made when a prospect portfolio is presented for drilling out.
Anyone working in the oil and gas industry should have an idea of the fundamental geological requirements to first find and then produce hydrocarbons. They should also have an idea of how these commercial volumes are exploited.

Today, I’d like to introduce you to a new web site I found that can help you select food to fit your particular needs. It’s called EatThisMuch.com.
What I like about it, aside from the fact that it has a wide array of choices, both commercially made and homemade, is that it drills down so that if you’re watching your sodium, cholesterol, sugar, etc, it’s listed in a drop down menu (far right).
Greg’s been watching his sugar so I’ve been paying careful attention to how much sugar are in ingredients before I use them.
Not only does the web site have nutrition information of individual ingredients, but also entire meals, including restaurant food. I especially like the search function (far left) so I don’t have to scroll so much.
Try it out and let me know if you found it useful.
We’ve been watching our sugar and fat for a few months now. We recently had a checkup and both my sugar and cholesterol went down. It was never high to begin with, but the change in our diet brought it down even lower. I was very happy to see that with only minor changes in our diet we could make a difference.
Greg needs a little more stringent care with his intake, but he too did better.
That is a very cool site, thanks for posting the link. I always struggle with ideas for breakfast, so I will definitely be using it.
I have to avoid sugar, cholesterol, and unhealthy carbs in my diet, but I’m finding a lot of new ideas for meals and dishes from the keto diet folks who post recipes on YouTube. One with a 90-second keto bread that you make in the microwave, has been a godsend (recipe here: https://tasty.co/recipe/90-second-keto-bread.) Most commercially-made breads are too high in carbs for me, and with this recipe I can make just enough bread for one sandwich.
Lynn: I wonder if you can switch your sides to things like beans or zoodles (zucchini spirals). I’ve been cooking more beans since we’ve cut back on sugar.
I don’t know what to recommend as a rice substitute for stir fry. Like you, I’m content to go riceless, but Greg likes to have it as a side. On days when I make stir fry I sometimes overcompensate with more vegetables in the stir fry to make it seem more filling.
Last physical, all was well overall according to the numbers, but I’m always trying to be and eat better/healthier. I’m focusing on reducing – not eliminating! – carbs at the moment.
I’ve been lucky/blessed/whatever — cholesterol and blood sugar have always been on the good side. Even my blood pressure is in the normal range. I expect that to change some day in the not so distant future (when my mitral valve regurgitation becomes worse), but that day’s not here yet. In the meantime, I continue walking on the treadmill and working out the best I can. The pill I take to prevent a return of my cancer just makes my bones ache at times so my exercise suffers. Only four more years of that crap.
Stacy: I wonder why your cancer drug hurts your bones. Is there a supplement you can take to ease the pain? It’s a vicious circle to be sure.
It’s cool that they come up with different meal plans at the touch of a button. I have high cholesterol, but to be honest, it’s hard to know what to do. Doctors are still saying fat causes high cholesterol, but an up and coming school of thought says that it’s the sugar causing it. Maybe everything in moderation is the key.
Gwen: I don’t understand it either. I had a friend who had super high cholesterol and blood sugar and she was 90 pounds soaking wet. It was just genetic. She was on drugs all her life for it too and it was always a balancing act.
Thanks for sharing this site. I, too, am such a sucker for carbs. Maybe this can help me with that addiction – erm – issue.
Angela: I try very hard to curb the carbs but I know I’ll never eliminate them completely. I believe in moderation in all things.
That’s a cool site. Excuse me while I go play with it. | 2019-04-19T21:12:23 | http://mariazanninihome.com/eat-this-much-web-site/ |

Ephesians 4:28. Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, producing with his hands something that is good, that he may have something to give to him who has need.
Proverbs 10:4-5. He becomes poor who works with a lazy hand, but the hand of the diligent brings wealth. He who gathers in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during the harvest is a son who causes shame.
Proverbs 12:24. The hands of the diligent ones shall rule, but laziness ends in slave labor.
Proverbs 13:4. The soul of the sluggard desires, and has nothing, but the desire of the diligent shall be fully satisfied.
Proverbs 21:5-6. The plans of the diligent surely lead to profit; and everyone who is hasty surely rushes to poverty. Getting treasures by a lying tongue is a fleeting vapor for those who seek death.
Romans 12:9-13. Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good. In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate to one another; in honor preferring one another; not lagging in diligence; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; rejoicing in hope; enduring in troubles; continuing steadfastly in prayer; contributing to the needs of the saints; given to hospitality.
1 Timothy 6:1. Let as many as are bondservants under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and the doctrine not be blasphemed.
2 Peter 1:5-8. Adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge; and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control patience; and in patience godliness; and in godliness brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love. For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful to the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
2 Thessalonians 3:7-12. We didn’t behave ourselves rebelliously among you, neither did we eat bread from anyone’s hand without paying for it, but in labor and travail worked night and day, that we might not burden any of you; not because we don’t have the right, but to make ourselves an example to you, that you should imitate us. For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: “If anyone will not work, don’t let him eat.” For we hear of some who walk among you in rebellion, who don’t work at all, but are busybodies. Now those who are that way, we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. | 2019-04-22T06:20:55 | http://www.talktotheword.com/p/industrious.html |

I first met Abby after a mutual friend informed me of someone looking to get in the wedding industry as a planner / coordinator. I knew that I could use some help planning my next styled shoot, and soon Abby and I were sitting down for coffee making plans for the Wheeler styled shoot we did last August.
Recently, I was asked to photograph her and her husband, and their pup, in one of my favorite ways: an inhome session. I've talked about it before, but there's something beautifully honest about opening up your home to be photographed in. I think it adds another element of vulnerability, but also comfortability that leads to an authentic encounter with the story.
After shooting in their cute home, we were able to take a walk to their favorite nearby park. The fall colors were still out, giving a picture perfect background to reflect the setting sunlight. We laughed together, were able to discuss Grayson's new found venture in Law School, and Abby's upcoming projects.

Day 763: George the Horse!
Madi was back at school today after her March Break. She has a new friend in her class who’s name is… Madison! The class agreed to call her Mads so there’s no confusion haha.

Tonight I’d like to give you a few tips on how you can deal with adversity, or any challenge you may be going through. These are simple methods that you can apply. I bet you’ve already practiced them before. You may be practicing them now. If not, tonight should hopefully reinforce them a little bit.
What are some difficulties we may face? Loss of employment, loss of a loved one, an accident, divorce, and children moving away from home only name a few, the list continues. Some may practice yoga, some may go away on a weekend retreat, and some may take a vacation.
But these are simple, daily things I do that I believe can also help you. My hope is that you receive something, and gain something positive. If only one of these tips help you, that would make me happy!
Daily Prayer – I talk to God daily. I sometimes read Bible verses and short prayers in the morning. If I can commit to just fifteen minutes a day of doing this, it really helps. I especially talk to God when it is quiet. That is when I can hear Him best, in feelings and in thoughts.
We can read the psalms. We can say the Lord’s prayer. We can light a candle. We can simply say “Amen.” We can thank Him throughout the day via a powerful form of prayer, praise.
Exercise – Exercise or physical therapy is something you should be doing at least a few times a week. If you do not need physical therapy, exercise is still priceless. Find a physical therapist or trainer that can design a safe but challenging program for you. Keeping an exercise log is a great way to track your progress!
There are more suggestions and tips I would like to give. And you will be hearing more about them in the upcoming weeks. Let me know if you have any ideas of other ways we can deal with obstacles in our lives. You can leave a note for me in the comments. | 2019-04-25T20:08:26 | https://notwithoutgod.net/tag/exercise/ |
Now that you have made your mind what sort of Halloween decorations you will put up this year. It’s time that you do something about your windows. You need to dress up the windows and give your house a perfect ghoulish look. To help you achieve it, we are giving some Halloween Window Decorations that will spook everything up.
This is the old Dracula and vampire cliche, but it still holds strong today and therefore you can’t skip this one. It’s better if you start with LED candles instead of real one. These will give you the real effect without creating any mess. To create the effect. You will need a real red candle lit and spill its wax over the led one. Now place the LED candle on a Black candle holder. Don’t forget the last bit because it scares away people.
This is new and fun, to be honest. It can freak away people if you add some hide and scare away factor. Start with drawing a ghost on a large white poster paper and cut it out. You need to tape the ghost to the inside of the window and make sure it looks like it peeks out from the side. For better, you need it to be angled perfectly to show it’s leaning over. For better, give the ghost two black eyes and a big round mouth.
This is for the artist inside you. If you want to take things into your hand, then you need to buy some window paint and markers. You can draw a mural and create your very own Halloween Window Decorations idea. Just place the template under stencil paper, cut it out, and stencil the pattern into your window. It will create a scary effect. | 2019-04-24T01:06:51 | http://residencestyle.com/halloween-window-decorations-4/ |

We hopped in the car late Wednesday night and took off for our Road Trip. First stop: New Orleans.
We had plans to stop in Baton Rouge to see an old friend of mine from middle school. It had been TEN years since we had seen each other. We were lucky enough to time it right so that we got to meet her fiance!
After a few more hours we finally crossed over into TEXAS!!
We arrived at the hubby's business convention a bit early and hung out at the pool with our friends and fellow Bumper Man Families. Got to catch up with my good friend Nester.
After a wonderful weekend of being wined and dined we took off for The Alamo.
Tired and ready to be out of the car, we were thrilled to arrive at our hotel.
We unpacked and took off immediately in search of cowboys and guns..

The patterns of embroidery on blouses and underskirts vary from region to region. Embroidery is used to emphasise the lines of the cut. A straight blouse (cămașă dreaptă) usually has embroidery around neck, on the shoulder seam and along the lengthways seams of the sleeves, and on the hem of the poale. These blouses also are sometimes made from fabric with woven motifs (especially if made of thin woollen material or silk). Gathered blouses (cămașă încrețită) usually have embroidery around the neck, front, and sleeves, with little or no embroidery on the back. The hem of the poală was usually decorated with a narrow band of embroidery. In areas where catrințe were worn (parts of Oltenia, and southern parts of Muntenia – Teleorman, Vlașca, Ilfov,) where the poală was more visible, vertical rows of embroidery continued up the seams on either side, and in Pădureni, Hunedoara the seams of the gussets were marked with rows of embroidered motifs.
Threads used for embroidery were made at home originally from local materials; wool, hemp, linen, or silk. Industrial threads were introduced from the end of 19th century. The colour schemes varied from region to region. The main colours used were red, black, sometimes dark blue, white, black, brown, beige or yellow. Older blouses were decorated in geometric designs. Floral designs were introduced later, also more elaborate blouses were decorated with gold and silver metal thread, spangles, beads. The range of colours used broadened once factory made threads were available. On a single women’s blouse there can be 8-10 different types of embroidery stitches.
Decoration on variants of cămașă dreaptă with platcă and umerași in northwest Romanian (Țara Oașului, Sălaj, Bihor, and Maramureș) have decorative patterns grouped into compactly stitched areas on the edge of the shoulders. Seams are joined using 2 rows of decorative motifs (cheița de dantelă) sewn in white thread. White thread is used in many rows (râuri), along the cheița in middle of the sleeves from the shoulder to the wrist. Sometimes these vertical râuri continue into a tablă on the sleeves, as in Arad. In Maramureș cheițe are used together with white smocking (crețuri de Maramureș) around the neck, and top of sleeves. The smocking is decorated with small embroidery stitches in white and yellow thread. The cuffs are gathered tightly and decorated with a narrow row of coloured geometric embroidery, and then open out into a frill edged with white drawn thread embroidery called ciur împiedicat.
There were four main typical types of decoration on cămașă încrețită which can be differentiated by the arrangement of the motifs. The first type was found on gathered blouses in Oltenia, Muntenia, Dobrogea and Moldavia, the other three types of blouse decoration were found in Transylvania.
Decoration on the sleeves of this style of blouse is divided into three parts, the altiță, Încreț and râuri. A rectangular strip is embroidered across the top of the shoulder (altiță). Originally this decoration was a single row of embroidery on the base of the altița as can be seen on old blouses from Oltenia and Muntenia, Hațeg, Târnavelor, middle Carpathians, and blouses of Moții Apuseni and in certain zones of northwest Transylvania. This decoration developed into rows on three sides of the rectangle, leaving the middle white, without ornament. This form was still found in Câmpia Dunarii. Most often embroidery on altiță was in horizontal rows embroidered with silk or dyed cotton thread, older blouses had between 3 and 9 rows with the row on top separate from the body of the altiță. The motifs on the altiță were traditionally not repeated anywhere else on the blouse. Since the end of the 19th century the structure of the blouse has changed so the altiță is not separate, so the sleeve is often cut from a single piece of cloth and the altiță became purely an element of decoration.
The încreț (literally, “puckering”) is a band of 1-2 inches wide which separates the altiță from râuri. Its main function was originally to join 2 pieces of fabric of unequal width and it was initially gathered. It is decorated with one horizontal stripe of monochrome embroidery in white, greyish or yellow silk using an embossing stitch also called încreț. The design of the încreț runs at right angles to the sleeve embroidery which gives a contrast to the altiță and râuri.
The râuri contains between 1 and 5 vertical (or occasionally diagonal) rows of embroidered motifs. These cover from below the încreț to the sleeve hem. Occasionally individual motifs were spread all over the sleeve in a decoration called flori sărite (jumping flowers) The râuri can also merge into a tablă when all the sleeve below the încreț is covered in a rectangle of closely grouped embroidery motifs.
The fronts of gathered blouses (cămășă încrețite) are decorated with several vertical rows (râuri) of embroidery reaching to the neck of blouse. The width of these râuri varies, the narrowest are found on blouses from north Moldavia, wider râuri are found on blouses from Muscel, Argeș, Vâlcea, and Mehedinți. The neck and collar edges are decorated with a row of small delicate motifs. The back of the blouse is either be plain or alternately has a smaller number of motifs either in râuri or scattered, the latter being found especially in Oltenia.
In the zones of Hunedoara, Arad, Caraș-Severin, Timiș, and part of Bihor the sleeves of the cămașă are decorated with a large rectangle of compact embroidery covering from shoulder to wrist. The colour of the threads depended on the zone; red predominated in Pădureni, Hunedoara, black in Făget (Timiș), and white in Bihor.
In Sibiu, southern parts of Alba, Târnave valley, south and east Hunedoara, and north Brașov a narrow horizontal line of motifs is embroidered in black on the shoulder (umeraș) with 3 to 5 vertical rows of tiny motifs down the sleeves (șire). The sleeves are gathered with a frill at the wrist, which is often edged in black crochet lace. This type of blouse is also found across the Carpathians in certain villages of north Oltenia, where this costume type was called ungureasca (Hungarian) referring to Transylvania having been part of Hungary in the past. This was a modified survival of an older blouse with altlță and râuri found in southern Transylvania.
This type of cămașă was found in a large part of Transylvania, in the zones of Sălaj, Cluj, Bistrița–Năsăud, Hunedoara, Alba, Mureș, Lapuș, Făgăraș and Târnave (in the last two it appeared concurrently with the type above). This type of cămașă has two distinct characteristics. The sleeves are gathered in just below the elbow and then opened out into a flounce fodor decorated with hand woven lace at the wrists. These sleeves were decorated with a horizontal linear band of embroidered motifs at elbow level. The rest of sleeve is undecorated except for a single row of embroidery at the wrist end of the sleeve. In some areas the neck of this type of blouse is tightly gathered (smocked) into an embroidered cuipag. In the Apuseni mountains. and central Transylvania this cuipag extended over a large part of the front of the blouse. It is embroidered in one colour – red for young women, black for older women, and consisted of small geometric patterns, occasionally grouped around a large central pattern. The blouse with ciupag is coexistent with the distribution of zadii vânătă (blue aprons) in a large area of central Transylvania from Valea Arieșului in the Apuseni mountains to Valea Gurghiului in the upper Mureș and along the Someș valley in the zones of Năsăud and Lăpuș.
A recent decorative variation is mâneca cu râuri de la umar sau râuri lungi. These blouses have 1 to 3 straight parallel vertical lines (râuri) of embroidery down the sleeves from shoulders to wrists. This style is found in Vrancea, Oltenia and in certain zones of Transylvania and more seldom in the rest of Moldavia and Muntenia. | 2019-04-19T18:56:07 | https://eliznik.org.uk/traditions-in-romania/traditional-clothing/womens-chemises-and-blouses/chemise-and-blouse-decoration/ |

Do you own property that you rent out, either as an investment or as a trade? Then you should look at incorporating as a limited company, as this can save you money!
Recent changes in legislation have eaten into the bottom line profitability of renting out properties. The changes include additional SDLT, restriction of tax relief on mortgage or loan interest, and the replacement of the old wear and tear allowance with a more restrictive relief on the replacement of domestic items in rental properties. You can read more about these changes in our companion blogs on these topics, all on ‘Raising the Bar on Property-Ownership’. Running as a limited company will not solve every issue, but it’s certainly worth considering.
You retain control as director/shareholder.
You have ongoing access to the income (subject to withdrawals from the company suffering income tax at your personal rate).
Flexibility of ownership for married or civil partners with property portfolios and for other family members. It is much easier (and cheaper) to deal with transfer of shares than ownership of the actual properties.
Enables the transfer of a property portfolio into a limited company in a tax efficient manner.
Takes advantage of statutory reliefs that enable the transfer to a limited company without triggering any Capital Gains Tax (‘CGT’) charge.
The loan interest is relievable in full against the income at the Corporation Tax (‘CT’) rate (within the company).
Income is charged at CT rate rather than at individual rates 20%/40%/45%.
The company acquires the properties at the market value (crystallising the increase but no CGT on transfer. Any future sale would reflect only the uplift in value between transfer into limited company and sale.
Stamp Duty Land Tax (or its Scottish equivalent, Land and Buildings Transaction Tax) should not be payable on transfer (subject to very specific circumstances relating to partnerships).
In due course Entrepreneurs’ Relief is available on sale of shares, irrespective of whether or not you are retiring from the business.
Protection of your other personal assets as only the company’s assets are liable for the company’s debts.
The cost of renegotiating loans with the lender. You may have to provide a personal guarantee initially.
Cost of legal transfer of properties.
Initial cost of setting up the limited company.
Compliance obligations as a limited company (but the cost of this is likely to be minimal).
Unused rental income losses will be lost when the business is transferred to a limited company.
Unused interest relief will be lost when the business is transferred to a limited company.
For a partnership, it must be demonstrated, that a legitimate and active partnership is undertaking the act of working at making a profit. If there is no partnership, then the SDLT/LBTT may be reduced, by the multiple dwelling relief.
This is not a simple transfer to undertake and will only work in a tax-efficient manner, if undertaken in the right circumstances. Remember that no course of action should ever be undertaken solely to secure a tax advantage – it has to be commercially viable and work for your personally. If you own a property portfolio or just one or two buy-to-let properties why not ask for a review?
Directors’ remuneration (subject to NIC if above the threshold).
Dividends – but bear in mind that the former tax credit on dividends has been restricted to basic rate tax only, with the first £5,000 per annum of all an individual’s dividend income being tax-free (expected to reduce to £2,000 for tax year 2017/18).
You also need to bear in mind that when the company sells a property there will be CGT to pay and also that, if you die, the properties will not benefit from the tax-free uplift in value for CGT which would apply if you still owned then as an individual (but your shares in the company will!).
The structuring of extraction of profits in the most tax-efficient way, as well as succession planning for when you retire can be quite a complex issue and I recommend that you take professional advice from your accountancy and taxation adviser.
Your company will be classified by HMRC as either being a trading company or an investment company. If you can demonstrate that a significant element of property management or property development is being undertaken by the company itself then you can seek to be classified as trading. In my experience this is unlikely unless the company owns at least 7 – 10 properties. Otherwise, if the reality is that you let the properties and enjoy the profits, it’s likely that you will be classified as an investment company.
The significance is that generally there are more tax-efficient strategies available to a trading company.
There is an annual charge for companies owning properties in the UK valued at £500,000 or more on 1 April 2016. But if the properties are buy-to-let properties and are let on a commercial basis to third parties, then a relief can be claimed to set against the annual rental tax due.
Non-natural persons (companies, partnerships with company members and collective investment schemes are collectively referred to as non-natural persons (‘NNPs’) owning UK residential property are subject to ATED if the property is valued at more than at £500,000 or more on 1 April 2016.
ATED returns must be submitted on or after 1 April in any chargeable period. There are however reliefs and exemptions from this tax, which may mean you don’t have to pay.
The amount you’ll need to pay is worked out using a banding system based on the value of your property.
If you satisfy the criteria for a trading company, you may want to keep the premises from which the business trades in the hands of the business owner personally. This avoids the potential charges to SDLT or LBTT when the premises are transferred into the company but are not part of trading stock.
It may also be helpful if you anticipate a future sale of the business. When a property is sold any gain in value is subject to Corporation Tax (‘CT’) within the company on the proceeds of sale, and in addition there would be an additional charge on the individual where the proceeds of the sale are released from the company.
Entrepreneurs’ Relief is still available on the chargeable gain if the business owner sells the property within three years of the disposal of the company.
If the business premises are held outside the company then it may be more tax-efficient from the owners’ point of view for the company to pay the owners a commercial rent, rather than the profits of the company being artificially inflated by not having to pay for business premises. As a result of the changes in taxation of dividends applicable from April 2016 (and further restricted in the March 2017 Budget) extraction of profits from a company via dividends is no longer as tax-efficient.
There is no interest relief restriction on commercial premises and if the property is subject to a mortgage full relief for the interest paid is allowable either through the company or for the owner, if the property is owned personally.
So, in conclusion, the benefits of trading as a limited company tend to outweigh any disadvantages and if you can establish it as a trading company, better still. Why not consult your accountant for a review of how this would work for your property portfolio? | 2019-04-18T22:32:41 | https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk/blog/rental-property-tax-incorporating-your-property-rental-portfolio/ |
Jez San, the founder and CEO of FunFair, has announced to followers that his team is on the “home stretch,” though he wouldn’t be drawn on any specific date for the blockchain gambling platform’s release.
The next landmark will be testing the FunPass KYC (Know Your Customer) solution, described as a “blockchain-based identity construct” which enables uses to be recognised and affirmed immediately, without the need for frustrating and time-consuming form-filling. After that will be beta-testing and finally the first gaming license. | 2019-04-23T12:13:06 | https://cryptocoinspy.com/funfair-fun-development-is-on-the-home-stretch/ |
Dr. Guy is a facial plastic surgeon practicing in The Woodlands, Spring, and Houston. He believes in creating a natural, unoperated look.
Your appearance matters in society. This is not just a statement but a fact. Research has shown more attractive people earn more money, are more likely to be hired and promoted, and are more likely to draw in customers when all things are considered. Furthermore, more attractive people are often judged to be more kind, decent, and honest. Even the renowned philosopher Aristotle commented that, "Beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of introduction." Considering how many doors the right letter of recommendation could open, this “secret” to successful living should be taken seriously by anyone committed to creating memorable impression. And although the definition of beauty changes with time, numerous experts have supported the finding that favors are granted to people considered to be attractive.
Dr. Guy is a firm believer that inner beauty and physical beauty are complementary and that improving one will improve the other. As you begin this journey of rejuvenation and take the steps to improve your physical appearance you will improve your mental wellbeing as well. One of the best ways to naturally improve your mental self is with exercise. This is not coincidental as the body releases endorphins with exercise which are one of the chemicals in the body that makes you feel good. At the same time, as your health improves you have more energy, and you feel better about how you look and about yourself. James Allen, who may well be the precursor of all self-help authors, wrote, "The body is the servant of the mind." It is only once the mind realizes the beauty you have that you can truly feel youthful. As one improves, so will the other. Cosmetic surgery is a complementary part of the process of rejuvenation. By improving the signs of aging, you can look as good on the outside as you feel on the inside.
And although everyone is not born with the perfect proportions of attractiveness, there are certain learned behaviors and actions that can improve one’s overall “appeal.” This includes how you carry yourself, how you stand without slouching, and how you sit. Your overall level of physical fitness can improve your appeal. How you coordinate your attire including clothes and accessories affects the impression you create. Finally, your outlook on life, how cheerful you are towards others, and letting your inner beauty shine through can improve your appeal. These are all attributes which can be improved without any surgical intervention which is why there is virtually no excuse for not looking one’s best.
For those patients who are appropriate surgical candidates and desire to maximize his or her appeal, the right surgical procedure performed by the right surgeon for the right reasons can play a vital role regardless of age.
For individuals just beginning to shows the signs of aging, “maintenance surgery” can go a long way to preserve your youthful appearance. For those with more advanced signs of aging, an experienced surgeon can restore the body to a more youthful appearance. Dr. Guy takes a very natural approach to surgery. Through his extensive training in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, he can create a very natural, refreshed look and avoid the "operated on" look, as you can see in the before and after section. Age truly is just a number, and there is never a better time to look your best.

An independent home care provider based in Kent has set and industry record by gaining the highest possible rating from the Care Quality Commission.
No Place Like Home was rated ‘Outstanding’ in all five categories – safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led – during the inspection in February.
With this achievement, the provider has become the only Kent-based home care service specialising in elderly and dementia care to receive the 5/5 standards rating, according to CQC data.
It has also become one of just eight home care providers in England, which cater only for the elderly and people with dementia, to receive the top rating.
No Place Like Home was set up in June 2013 by Alison Carter in response to her family’s challenge of caring for her father, who had dementia.
The aim of the service, which operates in Canterbury and Swale, is to help people make the most of later life by providing companionship, developing confidence and tailoring the services to people’s needs.
This is the second ‘Outstanding’ rating for No Place Like Home since the introduction of CQC’s Ofsted-style approach to inspection and regulation in 2015.
During its previous inspection in May 2016, it was rated Outstanding in three out of five areas.
In the latest CQC report, inspectors said the service “continued to be exceptionally effective, responsive and well-led” and that staff had worked continuously to further develop these areas and the areas of safe and caring.
“As a result, it provided an exceptionally outstanding service for the benefit of people and their family members,” the report said. | 2019-04-24T02:21:39 | https://www.homecareinsight.co.uk/double-outstanding-providers-perfect-score-marks-first-for-kent/ |

When I integrated the TrinketPro into the bag movement alarm prototype project, the power circuit did not work. So I needed to redesign the power circuit.
It uses two MOSFETs: a P-channel MOSFET up top, and then an N-channel MOSFET at the bottom. The EN is the pin by which you control the bottom MOSFET: when it is high, you allow the N-channel MOSFET to open and pull the gate pin on the P-channel MOSFET to ground (it is normally pulled high to the VIN+ through resister R1), opening the P-channel MOSFET to connect the Load to the VIN+.
I set this up on another small breadboard, without a button, to test it out. It worked, and was super stable (unlike before, where I had to adjust the pot periodically). I used a 10k resistor for R1.
This is pretty sweet. If you were going to reincorporate the push button, where would it fit into this? I’m trying to accomplish a scenario similar to the one you described in the Arduino forum, with a push button turning on the Uno, and shutting it down programmatically.
Glad this is useful! When I reincorporated the push button, I put the push button connected between the +9V from the battery and the Vin pin of the Uno. This way, the push button essentially shorts out the transistor circuit.
Micah, my mosfets finally came in today and I’ve had a chance to test this out. I guess I’m not crystal clear on what should happen. When I put them in, the LED comes on for several seconds and then goes off, repeat. With a momentary push button in place, it only powers up while the button is pressed down (let off, and everything shuts off).
I started off with a set of P and N channel mosfests (very much like the N you started with in the arduino forum) and with those, the circuit does power up and stay on with the press of the momentary button. In either case though, the LED continues to light up and then go out in sequence. Please correct me if I’m wrong, but shouldn’t the LED light up for several seconds, go off and stay off? Any idea what I might be missing? As far as I can tell, everything is wired up exactly as you have yours. Sorry to pester you with newbie questions. Just starting out with this stuff, and naturally something tough like this lands in my lap.
Are you referring to the LED on the Arduino? Or is this a different LED placed in the circuit?
Have you attached a pin from the Arduino to the gate of the N-channel MOSFET? If so, have you included in your sketch that it puts that pin high as soon as it is powered up?
My assumption is that you would have the LED light up and then stay on, until you decided to turn it off in the sketch. Perhaps we are trying to do different things tho – are you trying to have this as a power supply, where you press the button and the Arduino turns on, but pressing the button doesn’t turn it off (only the program can turn itself off)? Can you describe what you are trying to do?
Hmmm… are you are able to post a picture of the circuit?
1) What transistors did you get? It may be helpful to check the pin layout for the transistors. If it only turns on when you press the button (i.e. the transistor can’t keep the Uno on) then it is likely that the transistors are the issue.
2) Are you powering this from a battery, or do you have the USB (also) plugged in? If you have the USB plugged in, you will get the flashing LED behavior: your transistors don’t actually turn the circuit off, so the entire sketch runs instead of putting the OnOffPin to low turning things off. | 2019-04-25T17:56:20 | https://makerself.wordpress.com/2014/12/23/power-circuit-redesigned/comment-page-1/ |
Flowers, candy, cards, and other heartfelt expressions are just a few of the many ways couples across the U.S. are celebrating Valentine’s Day this month. Love is no doubt one of the most powerful emotions we experience. That’s why it’s no surprise that love is strongly and abundantly present in adoption. The reason: the bond between a parent and a child, whether biological or not, is a connection like no other. Let’s take a look at all the ways that love comes into play throughout the adoption process.
When an expectant mother learns she’s pregnant, she may feel scared, sad, or confused. But no matter how she is feeling, a bond between her and her unborn child begins right away. She’ll think about what her child will be like, how she will care for him or her, and what resources she will need in order to give her baby the best life possible. Sometimes this means making an adoption plan. Although a difficult and heart-wrenching choice to make, this decision is one that is made out of love. An expectant mom who decides to place her baby for adoption does so because she loves that child so much that she wants to give him or her a better life — a life she is currently unable to provide. Even after the adoption, a birth mom will think of her child often, grieve deeply, and love him or her for the rest of her life. I remember a card our daughter’s birth mom sent on her first birthday. It read: “I love you so much! But I know that your parents are the best parents for you.” Reading that brought tears to my eyes. She made the ultimate sacrifice for her child — and that’s powerful!
“I loved him before I met him.” “I couldn’t imagine loving her any more if she were born to me.” These are common sentiments expressed by adoptive parents everywhere. Oftentimes, the children they adopt settle into their homes quickly and fit into their new family as if they belong there. I remember interviewing a classmate in high school, who was also an adoptee, for an article on adoption in our school newspaper. When asked how it feels to be adopted, she told me: “I feel natural” and explained that she didn’t feel different because she was adopted. She felt like she belonged in her family. I know not all adoptees feel that way, but it is always incredible to see the love and bonding that are present in families formed by adoption. At the time, I didn’t know that I would adopt one day, but my friend’s words and example stuck with me and helped me see what a blessing adoption can be. When it came time to form my own family, I was certain adoption was the right choice.
When a child joins his or her family through adoption, that relationship is often called “a forever family”. Why? Because from that day forward, the child and parents will always be connected. Every smile, every tear, every accomplishment, and every challenge will be shared together. Adoption is for life and so is the strong and lasting love that grows and develops. My husband and I love our daughter more than anything in the world, and I know the feeling is mutual. We are truly a forever family.
So as you celebrate Valentine’s Day this year with roses, cards, and chocolate, remember that love is about so much more than romance and candlelight dinners. It’s the kind of love that can only be shared between a parent and a child. It’s the unselfish love that birth parents will always feel for their child and how that love has made adoption possible. It’s the longing to protect, nurture, and make life better for another person. When you think about it, there is no doubt that adoption brings all of these things and more. It is a perfect example of what love really is. | 2019-04-21T00:09:53 | https://www.adopting.com/adoption-blog/adoption-is-about-love |
It’s a very different world that my children are growing up in, compared to the world that I knew as a child. Technological advances over the past 30 years have been immense, and I truly believe that as a result, our children’s minds are being wired in a completely different way to our own.
Technology today is all about instant gratification, and as much as it worries me as a parent, it’s getting very hard to resist. As a child I remember walking as a family in the rain to the phone box down the road, to call my relatives in York for a weekly chat. I vividly remember the day our first home phone was installed, which I think we were too scared to use for a while! I remember sitting in front of the radio on a Sunday afternoon with a cassette tape ready to record my favourite songs in the charts, always trying my best to press ‘record’ at exactly the right moment. And who can forget VHS tapes, with the titles of recordings written on and scrubbed off, a million times over. Then when a film came on that I wanted to record, there would be a mad panic to find a cassette tape that had enough space on it. I had so many films with the first 10 minutes missing, or the last 20 minutes chopped off. I don’t think I ever saw the beginning of Dirty Dancing until I was an adult!
Although things certainly weren’t as easy or accessible, they meant a lot a more, probably because we had to wait for what we wanted. If there was a movie out at the cinema that I really wanted to see, it would be years before it hit the video rental shops, and another couple of years before it was available to buy. So when I finally came to own a copy of Ferris Buller, for example, I was over the moon. A friend was telling me just the other day that she’d managed to watch the whole eight seasons of Dexter in just one month via Netflix. To me that felt like cheating! It’s taken me and my husband something like six years to watch all of Dexter, waiting with anticipation for the next season to air!
A 2012 study into young people and their hyperconnected lives by the Pew Internet and American Life Project predicted that this generation ‘will exhibit a thirst for instant gratification and quick fixes, a loss of patience, and a lack of deep-thinking ability’ due to something called “fast-twitch wiring”. I’ve already seen evidence of this in my four-year old daughter. She’s so used to watching TV or movies on demand, that she has no patience for live TV and not being able to forward through ad breaks. Similarly with mobile apps, she’s never had to wait – the download is instant.
My technology and gadgets are certainly no longer my own, except for my prized Kindle which I have learnt to not let anyone near! My tablet I lost to my daughter and husband a good couple of years ago, and it had reached a point where even my smartphone was full of more princess and education apps than my own. Surely the predicament of many parents out there!
Nowadays though, mobile phones are for so much more than making phone calls, and are essentially a gaming device, particularly for youngsters. While I imagine it will be a good few years before I’ll agree to let my children have their own tablet, I have to admit I see the benefits in them having their own entry-level smartphone from an early age. If you restrict usage to free apps only, in the long-run it can certainly work out a lot cheaper than children’s tablets such as the InnoTab, or big brand gaming consoles. PAYG models mean that there’s no need for a contract or monthly bills – a £10 top-up card will probably keep you going for quite some time, so long as no calls or texts are made. It goes without saying that good parental controls need to be set up first.
One thing I like about a child owning their own smartphone (aside from it freeing up mine!) is that it’s small and ‘mobile’, and much easier to take outdoors than a PC or PlayStation. I’d always prefer that my children are out of doors getting fresh air and exercise, to being stuck indoors playing on a console or watching a movie…so maybe a kid’s smartphone offers a good middle ground.
Ultimately, while I worry about the reliance that my children will have on gadgets and technology, both mentally and emotionally; I don’t think there’s much that we can do to stop it. Hyperconnectivity is infiltrating every aspect of our waking lives. This is the world we’re living in now. The best we can do is to teach our children when to ‘shut down’ and ‘log off’, and remember to lead by example.
* Disclaimer: Mobile network 3 kindly sent us a PAYG mobile phone to review, as background to this post. The subject matter and words above are entirely my own.
I heard something that troubled me the other day, although in my heart I already knew it to be true. That we are ‘no longer left alone with our own thoughts.’ Mobile gadgetry allows us to be constantly entertained. I thought to myself how awful that is. So now, when I’m waiting for a friend, or a bus, I don’t look at my phone. I just look through my mind. | 2019-04-22T20:44:24 | http://www.mummymcauliffe.com/family-life%E2%80%99/should-we-gadget-up-our-kids/ |

One of the interesting things at the exhibition in Stratford-Upon-Avon was watching people engage with the paintings of our artists – spending time, almost having a dialog with the artwork and letting it speak to them.
One art lover was particularly taken with Gheorghe Tarna’s painting ‘Gossip’. He studied it in detail and at varying distances. The birds, he decided, were noisy and gossipy species depicted in contrast to the chairs that, according to his view, silently showed so much character.
Another gentleman spent time examining Ghenadie Sontu’s painting ‘The Secret’. He was particularly impressed by the fine detail, both in the depiction of the cloth bag that lies draped on the table, and of the wall.
An artist particularly appreciated Cezara Kolesnik’s ‘Me, You and the Poppy Field.’ She liked Kolesnik’s use of colour – particularly the reds. And she expressed curiosity regarding the legend that lies behind the work.
It was gratifying to see the works of our artists eliciting serious and sustained attention. There is something about these works that draws people in, that makes them want to know more and that invites them to spend time understanding how the painting speaks to them.
More people will get the chance to engage with these paintings in a few days in London. The paintings will be on display at the Fine Art Trade Guild’s London Exhibition Space between May 15 and May 28. | 2019-04-26T05:38:15 | https://fineartmoldova.com/blogs/news/167969991-moldovan-art-draws-interest-at-stratford-exhibition |
It was once the bread and butter of every working woman’s wardrobe, but after its nineties heyday, Karen Millen experienced somewhat of a phase-out thanks to the growing popularity of the likes of Zara, Marks & Spencer, Topshop and Whistles.
While it never disappeared altogether – like so many other high street stores – it was not as poignant as it once was.
And while you may think this is the first you’ve seen/heard of Karen Millen in the mainstream for a while, you’ve actually likely been lusting after it for a few weeks now without even realising. It is, after all, frequently championed by one of the UK’s most popular and sartorially influential women around right now.
Whether you’re into zesty neon trouser suits, feminine floral dresses or well-cut flattering basics, it’s time to re-visit Karen Millen. | 2019-04-24T16:17:22 | https://theplatformonline.com/2019/03/26/the-high-street-store-fashion-fans-are-falling-back-in-love-with-because-of-this-spring-collection/ |

The standard of care in vascular access in trauma patients is the intravenous route. Unfortunately, not all patients have veins that can be quickly accessed by prehospital providers. Introduction of the intraosseous device (IO) has made vascular access in the field much more achievable. And it appears that most fluids and medications can be administered via this route. But what about iodinated contrast agents via IO for CT scanning?
Physicians at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit published a case report on the use of this route for contrast administration. They treated a pedestrian struck by a car with a lack of IV access sites by IO insertion in the proximal humerus, which took about 30 seconds. They then intubated using rapid sequence induction, with drugs injected through the IO device. They performed full CT scanning using contrast injected through the site using a power injector. Images were excellent, and ultimately the patient received an internal jugular catheter using ultrasound. The IO line was then discontinued.
This paper suggests that the IO line can be used as access for injection of CT contrast if no IV sites are available. Although it is a single human case, a fair amount of studies have been done on animals (goats?). The animal studies show that power injection works adequately with excellent flow rates.
The authors prefer using an IO placement site in the proximal humerus. This does seem to cause a bit more pain, and takes a little practice. A small xylocaine flush can be administered to reduce injection discomfort in awake patients. Additionally, the arm cannot be raised over the head for the torso portion of the scan.
Bottom line: CT contrast can be injected into an intraosseous line (IO) with excellent imaging results. Insert the IO in a site that you are comfortable with. I do not recommend power injection at this time. Although the marrow cavity can support it, the connecting tubing may not. Have your radiologist hand-inject and time the scan accordingly. And don’t be surprised if your radiology department doesn’t have a protocol for this!
Note: long term effects of iodinated contrast in the bone marrow are not known. For this reason, and because of smaller marrow cavities, this technique is not suitable for pediatric patients.
Reference: Intraosseous injection of iodinated computed tomography contrast agent in an adult blunt trauma patient. Annals Emerg Med 57(4):382-386, 2011.
Bottom line: If you are considering contrast CT, try to get a history to see if the patient is at risk for nephrotoxicity. Also consider all of the studies that will be needed and try to consolidate your contrast dosing. For example, you can get CT chest/abdomen/pelvis and CT angio of the neck with one contrast bolus. Consider low dose contrast injection if the patient needs formal angiographic studies in the IR suite. Always think about the global needs of your patient and plan accordingly (and safely). | 2019-04-26T00:27:00 | https://thetraumapro.com/tag/contrast/ |

I’ve talked a bit about the Affordable Care Act here on my blog, but I know it’s still confusing in a lot of ways. Thankfully, there are people out there committed to making it understandable and breaking down exactly how it could affect, possibly benefit, you. This video gives a great overview of how things will change once the law goes into full effect in 2014, especially in terms of employer coverage, government coverage (particularly Medicaid), and individual benefits.

A step-by-step guide for preparing low carb cheesy shrimp and cauliflower grits in the Instant Pot. You won’t believe the simple, pantry-friendly ingredient swaps we used to make this classic comfort dish lower in carbs and lower in sodium.
Before scrolling down to the recipe, be sure to read my easy tips for making your recipes low carb, keto friendly, lower sodium, and delicious.
Note: I am thrilled to announce this post is sponsored by my fabulous friends at Tony Chachere’s, however, as always, all opinions are my own.
Question Time: Do you love grits? Do you love flavor?
Grits. So creamy, so yummy, so comforting, it’s the ultimate southern breakfast comfort dish. Growing up in Bayou Country, my Saturday and Sunday mornings started by rubbing my eyes, rolling out of bed, and heading to the kitchen for a heaping bowl of yummy grits with a large pat of butter and sprinkle of salt on top. Little did I know, my yummy grit combination would cause a little spat in more ways than one…..
My love of grits was quickly halted when Mr Skinny Louisiana revealed his dislike for grits (trust me, I cried) and his somewhat fear of spicy foods (I prefer to use the word flavor). He proceeded to share his favorite breakfast recipes from the Midwest, which sadly lack flavor, only using salt and pepper – where was my spice?
I was on a mission. Secretively, I started to bring Mr Skinny Louisiana over to the flavor side with a seasoning I grew up with, Tony Chachere’s. And just like that, Mr Skinny Louisiana was getting seconds (exactly how I knew he liked a dish). The best part? I knew that I was keeping his heart healthy (I am going to embarrass him by saying he has high blood pressure) thanks to the lower sodium count in Tony Chachere’s.
It’s time to take the traditional Shrimp and Cheesy Grits to the Skinny Louisiana drawing board to not only cut the carbs and sodium, but to also update to this classic dish to the Instant Pot. The most important? I needed my Yankee husband and 2 kids to eat this dish, with Mr Skinny Louisiana throwing out his dislike for grits. With a few simple ingredients swaps and a little help from our friends at Tony Chachere’s, we transformed the classic Shrimp and Cheesy Grits to a low carb, low sodium dish the entire family would love.
And did he go for seconds? Yes!
Before I go over ingredients, know the items used in this recipe can be found at many of your local supermarkets and Drug Emporium. Many of you know my love of Drug Emporium stores. Not only does Drug Emporium have amazing prices (often the cheapest in town), I work with this amazing company in putting on Low Carb Food Demonstrations and product selection for shelves. No Drug Emporium in your town? No worries, you will be able to find the items at your local supermarkets.
Bacon has received a ton of attention in the last few years (remember the chocolate covered bacon recipes flying all over Facebook). While we love bacon in the Skinny Louisiana house, be sure to select bacon with the lowest amount of sodium. Simply compare the sodium on the label of various bacon brands at your local supermarket and select the one with the lowest amount of sodium.
Looking for flavor? Salt has always been the answer for flavor, but coming in at 2300 mg of sodium in ONLY 1 tsp (yes, the small spoon), salt can wreak havoc for our heart health. I will be the first to agree, foods without salt that use other ‘salt substitutes’ are … terrible. I’m Cajun. I need flavor. Enter Tony Chachere’s No Salt Seasoning Blend. Don’t panic, this blend contains ZERO salt substitutes, making it safe for our families with renal (kidney) disease. The taste? Amazing.
Continuing on the honestly train, I need SPICE! Containing zero carbs AND a whole lot of kick, Tony Chachere’s BOLD Creole Seasoning gives this dish a POW without hiking up the sodium content.
Grits is a must in this dish, but in the low carb world grits makes us run away, very fast. 1/2 cup of cooked grits yields 16 grams of carbs. Enter our amazing vegetable, the cauliflower. From pizza to bread, cauliflower is an amazing substitute for both rice and grits. Riced cauliflower is available frozen or in the produce section of the stores.
With the main purpose of a thickening agent, whipping cream gives our dish a ‘creamy’ texture. Heavy whipping cream has only 1 gram of carb per tablespoon serving. No worries, we don’t go overboard on this product.
START with the Instant Pot.
PLUG in your Instant Pot. Remove lid and place aside. Be sure not place your Instant Pot under a cabinet in order to give space for the venting (release of steam) process.
Press the SAUTÉ function. You will know the Instant Pot is hot when you hear a beep. Add only half the olive oil (1 tablespoon).
Add chopped bacon. Using your WOODEN spoon, sauté bacon for 4 to 6 minutes. The bacon will ‘shrink’ and get crunchy. Using a SLOTTED spoon, remove half the bacon and place aside.
Add remaining olive oil, onion, and green pepper. Using your WOODEN spoon, stir and sauté for 5 to 7 minutes. Beware, the smell will be amazing.
Add Tony Chachere’s No Salt Seasoning Blend, Tony Chachere’s BOLD Creole Seasoning, lemon juice, riced cauliflower, and broth. Stir until all ingredients are combined.
Turn OFF Instant Pot. Secure lid. You will know the lid is secure when you hear a beep. Make sure venting valve is sealed (closed). Press manual function (located in front of the Instant Pot). Using the ‘+’ and ‘-‘ button, cook on manual low pressure for 8 minutes.
When timer beeps, use a quick release method (use a wooden spoon to move value from sealed to vent). Please note, the steam will ‘shoot’ up. When the valve drops, remove the lid.
One more TIME to SAUTÉ.
Add shrimp. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until shrimp is pink.
Turn off Instant Pot. Stir in bacon, cream and cheese.
Heat 1 tbsp. olive oil using the sauté setting of the Instant Pot.
Add bacon. Sauté for 4-6 minutes. Remove half of bacon from Instant Pot. Place aside.
Add 1 tbsp. olive oil, onion, and green pepper. Cook 5-7 minutes.
Add Tony Chachere’s No Salt Seasoning Blend, Tony Chachere’s BOLD Creole Seasoning, lemon juice, riced cauliflower, and broth.
Press manual function. Cook on manual low pressure for 8 minutes.
When timer beeps, use a quick release method.
Press sauté function. Add shrimp. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until shrimp is pink.
Stir in bacon, cream, and cheese.

Oh, you (not you personally, Kidsnurse), with your is it sarcasm, is it sincere. Just like Histiocytosis X, it's both! That is why the House Wilson friendship has lasted all these years - House can make pregnant, trenchant comments and it isn't wasted on Wilson. Wilson can get all of what House is saying (or he has that capacity when he is used well). I think the Foreman trying to make explicit pats on the back is the exact counterpoint. House IS truly sincere both with Wilson and with 13 because he says it in his language not in somebody else's. House's language is sincere and sarcastic at the same time - he's that good.
House's language is sincere and sarcastic at the same time - he's that good.

Who do we root for now?
(SPOT.ph) Organizers of the 2016 UAAP Cheerdance Competition released today, October 26, the order of performances of the seven contending university-based cheerdance groups for November 19, 2 p.m. at the Araneta Coliseum. Yes, you read it right, only seven schools will be fighting for the title as the University of the Philippines Varsity Pep Squad (a.k.a. UP Pep Squad or UP Pep) decided to not be part of this season's competition.
Less than an hour after the order of performances was released, the UP Pep Squad came out with an official statement clarifying their position regarding the matter through their official Facebook page. "Last year was one of the most striking seasons in the history of our team. If you have been following our story since, thank you for your interest and patience. Finally, we can share the news to those who have been wondering that, regretfully, we will not be part of this season’s UAAP Cheerdance Competition," the statement started.
In 2015, the squad filed a protest questioning the results that had National University defending its title and University of Santo Tomas finishing second. UP Pep Squad placed third. In a letter dated October 5, 2015, UP Diliman Chancellor Michael L. Tan wrote to the UAAP Cheerdance Committee: "I am endorsing the letter, convinced that unless all these questions are answered, the future of cheerdance as a sport, and UAAP as a university sports federation, will remain under a cloud of doubt."
The committee replied "that the results of the 2015 UAAP CDC are valid" without clarifying any of the examples pointed out by UP Pep Squad Coach Lalaine Juarez-Pereña as "gross disregard for the competition criteria (provided in the UAAP Season 77 Cheerdance Competition Rules and Regulations)." Her review highlighted stunts that did not abide by the competition rules as well as what should have been deductions for the violations and mistakes in routine. She also pointed out "questionable techniques" through illustrations. "We seek an explanation as to whether the board of judges put more premium on quantity over proper technique," she asked further. In an interview with GMA News Online in October 2015, Pereña said: "Kung di sinagot, then UP will be out of UAAP CDC next year."
That next year is now and the UP Pep Squad didn't get their answers. "Reared in the institution we represent, we abide with our principles of honor and integrity, and stay true to our word of foregoing with the competition, should the same organizers be hired to handle the event again," they said in their official statement.
The team is now focused on their other commitments, including their participation in this year's Asian Cheerleading and Dancesport Competition. The team took home five medals from the Cheerleading World Championships in Berlin last November 2015.
"What matters is knowing what you stand for, what you represent, and the freedom to act on it. What matters is knowing your capacity to endure, your value and how your worth is being measured. And again we are reminded, gratefully, that we are measured in love," the team said in a final note. UP Pep Squad fans are equally sad and proud about this news; even the UP Bonfire can't help but shed a tear.

The housing market is on an uptick across much of the country and you may be considering selling your home. The first thing your real estate agent is going to tell you is that staging your home will make it more attractive to potential buyers. While you may be in love with the home you’ve created, you will need to turn it into something of a blank slate so that house hunters can picture putting their stuff in the space.
This means that even before you move out, you’re going to need to box up many of your belongings and put them in storage, possibly in an offsite storage unit so that your home doesn’t end up full of boxes.
If your personal library overflows to stacks on floors, tables, and other flat surfaces, box up the excess and move them to storage. Same with media such as DVDs or CDs, games, puzzles, and collectibles. Shelving, bookcases, and display cases should have a few items tastefully displayed rather than being stuffed.
Too many family photos, refrigerator drawings and art projects will keep potential buyers from seeing themselves in your space. A few keepsakes and mementos in quality frames and displayed sparingly are fine. The rest should go to storage.
This category applies to toys used by your children, your pets, and you and your spouse. Adults have their own hobbies that tend to take over a living space and could qualify as clutter. Pet toys call attention to the fact that animals live in the house and may be unsanitary. Box them up and put them in storage or discard if they are old and worn.
If you use your closets, garage, or spare bedroom as storage areas, transport those items to the rented unit. House hunters are looking for a place to live, not a place to keep their boxes.
Consider moving any ratty, worn, ripped, scratched or otherwise damaged furniture into storage. It may be difficult to do without key pieces of furniture, but a well-staged home is going to sell faster than one that looks like a thrift store. Keep the best furniture and consider renting replacement pieces for the weeks you’ll be showing the home.
Paint cans, plumbing supplies, and other items that you use to repair, maintain or renovate your home should all be put into storage.
The overriding thought should be how to make your home look like their home. Anything that detracts from that should be stored away.
