How to Make Smart Money Moves in College
Whether your college graduation is months (or years) away, it’s never too early to start planning for your financial future. The sooner you understand student loans and retirement funds, the better off you will be.
Set Up a Savings & Checking Account
A savings account allows you to save money for larger purchases or needs. Regularly deposit a portion of your paycheck into this account. Savings are built by depositing small sums of money over time; make it a habit to do so frequently, and savings will accumulate. A checking account provides convenient access to funds for paying daily bills.
Live Within Your Financial Means
Supporting oneself may be costly, and you’ll rapidly find yourself in financial trouble if you don’t make a budget. Calculate your take-home pay after taxes, then determine how much you can afford to spend each month.
Pay Your Bills on Time
Missed payments can harm your credit for up to seven years, affecting your ability to obtain loans, the interest rates you pay, and your ability to find work or rent an apartment. Consider automating payments for recurring expenses such as student loans, car payments, and phone bills. Utilize any reminder or notification features.
Consider Your Student Loans
Create an actionable plan for dealing with student loan debt before graduating. Make a list of your school loans and interest rates.
Make Emergency Plans
Emergencies can strike in an instant. Create a fund and try to save the equivalent of three to six months of living expenses in case the unexpected occurs. Begin saving right away, no matter how tiny the amount.
Reframe money mistakes as a way of learning how it works. This is probably the first time you’ve managed your money without supervision from your parents; treat it as an opportunity to learn more through experience. Discover the worth of money, the significance of making sensible decisions, and how to prioritize needs over wants. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The diamond and specialty minerals stocks box score for Tuesday was a positive 82-77-151 as the TSX Venture Exchange rose fractionally to 603. Good grief, can it be? For the first time in a few years, a private explorer is looking to go public through a reverse takeover of a cash shell based on a diamond property, although the crux of that property appears to be a major geophysical anomaly that has befuddled a few generations of geologists.
Craig Rollins, David De Witt and Marcel de Groot's Drummond Ventures Corp. (DVX.P: $0.12) has firmed up an arrangement with Carson Phillips's private Elton Resources Corp., whereby the latter company will go public, sailing onto the exchange with its flagship Darnley Bay property in tow. The resulting entity, which will assume Elton's moniker, will have 95.5 million shares outstanding.
Just over 10.2 million will be held by Drummond shareholders -- and to do so, that company will first split its shares 2:1. Elton's current shareholders will receive 35 million shares of the merged entity, while another 16 million shares will be held by Generation Mining Ltd. (GENM). Generation, which rose two cents to 29.5 cents on 404,000 shares today, is getting the shares as a result of it passing along the Darnley Bay property to Elton.
The remainder is available to Stockwatch subscribers.

It was sadness that we learnt that the Stonehaven Heritage Society had decided to wind up its activities. The Society has been active for nearly 40 years and in that time it has researched Stonehaven's rich history, educated the community and answered innumerable questions raised by the Stonehaven diaspora. It has also played a significant role in maintaining links between the local community and expatriats. However, time moves on and evidently it was becoming more and more difficult to find individuals who were prepared to give so much of their time to running the Society. In April the Society voted to dissolve and, after due process with the charity regulator, is in the final throes of winding up. All assets are being transferred to Stonehaven Tolbooth Association and a few members of the Society have join us at the museum. We are currently exploring ways in which we can continue the good work of the Society; one idea is to maintain the series of winter lectures on Stonehaven topics. If you have any ideas please contact us via . | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

How the Internet Effects Consumers Selling Structured Settlement Payments
Its estimated that 68% of Americans use the internet on a regular basis. This is an increase of over 120% since the year 2000. Over the next 3- 5 years the same type of increase is expected.

PONY TAIL PALM beaucarnea recurvata SEEDS FOR SALE HERE QLD AUSTRALIA.$4 PER 10 SEEDS.ADD $4 PACK/POST TO THE ORDER.
These are not really palms.
YES I HAVE THE PLANTS ALSO FOR SALE IN VARIOUS SIZES
Propagating Ponytail Palms using seeds
Indoor ponytail palms rarely bloom, and if they don’t bloom, there’s no way that you’ll get seeds.
One option is just buying seeds. I have white & pink seeds as per below.
However, note that propagating using seeds has a lower success rate compared to using cuttings or shoots.
On average, only one new ponytail palm can fully grow out of five seeds.
Now, if you already have the seeds, I’ll share two ways that you can propagate them; you can use paper towels first or directly on cultivation soil.
Method 1 :
For the first method, place them over two layers of paper towels. Moisten the paper towels until they are slightly damp.
Put another layer of damp paper towel over the seeds. Put the paper towel in a cool and dry area with no sunlight, heat, or wind.
Check the towels from time to time and make sure that they are still moist and not drying out. After that, you just need to wait for the seeds to germinate for about two weeks.
Once the sprouts start appearing, take the seedlings out carefully as well as the fallen seed hulls using tweezers. Be extra careful since these little babies are fragile.
Place them on seedling trays. Using seedling mix, cover the seedlings until only the top leaves are out.
Put the seedling tray in a place where it can be subjected with direct sunlight for two to three hours. If your fragile seedlings get too much light, they’ll dry out and die.
Be careful in watering them too so that the seedling mix that covers the seedling won’t wash away. When the seeds sprout for about two inches high, move the seedling with the soil around it onto a fresh pot with potting soil.
Position the pots in an area where it can get direct sunlight; water the new plant two times a day. You can also opt to plant them in an outdoor garden or just on the ground if they are bigger than the pot.
This is basically the same as the method above. The only difference is that you’re using a cultivation soil in a pot.
Simply press the seedlings down, about four to five centimeters apart from each other on the soil. Use a plastic bag to cover the pot. You can also place the pot in a greenhouse.
The ideal temperature around the germinating seeds is about 73-77 degrees F. Gently but regularly water them. With the perfect conditions, it can take a few weeks or months for the seeds to germinate.
Only move them to another pot (or again, on the ground) once the leaves start sprouting. If placed on the pot, position it on a partly shaded window sill; do not crowd the seedlings. Henry

Jacques Alexandre César Charles Biography, Life, Interesting Facts
Died On :
Also Known For :
Birth Place :
Jacques Alexandre Cesar Charles was a French scientist, physicist, inventor, balloonist, and professor.
Jacques Alexandre Cesar Charles was born on November 12, 1746, in the commune of Beaugency, province of Orleanais, France. Almost nothing is known about his family, except that he had no siblings. He eventually moved to Paris and began working as a clerk in the ministry of finance.
In 1779, Benjamin Franklin’s visit to France inspired Jacques Alexandre Cesar Charles to pursue science. He started studying physics at the National Conservatory of Arts and Crafts. In 1781, he started giving public lectures and demonstrations of his experiments. He soon came up with the idea of using hydrogen in balloons. He teamed up with Anne-Jean Robert and Nicolas-Louis Robert, two brothers who owned an engineering workshop.
They launched their first balloon on August 27, 1783. They attracted a large group of onlookers, including Benjamin Franklin. The balloon flew from the Champ de Mars in Paris to the village of Gonesse.
They launched their second balloon on December 1, 1783. This time, Charles and Nicolas-Louis were also aboard the flight. They flew from the Tuileries Palace to the commune of Nesles-la-Vallee. They spent two more years perfecting the design of the balloon. This type of balloon became known as the Charliere.
Around 1787, Jacques Alexandre Cesar Charles wrote a paper describing how gases expand when they are heated. In 1795, he became a resident member of the Academy of Sciences and a professor of experimental physics at the Conservatory of Arts and Crafts. In 1802, natural philosopher Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac took his old work regarding the expansion of gases and improved it.
He then published it under the name Charles’s law, or the law of volumes. Charles also worked on many other inventions. He invented the goniometer, a device that measures angles in crystals. He created the hydrometer, an instrument that measures the density of liquids. He also invented the megascope, an instrument that magnifies large objects.
Jacques Alexandre Cesar Charles made improvements on several existing instruments, such as Fahrenheit’s aerometer and Gravesand’s heliostat. He also repeated Franklin’s experiments, confirming his conclusions. In 1816, he became the president of the Conservatory’s department of physics.
In 1804, Jacques Alexandre married Julie Francoise Bouchaud des Herettes, a Creole woman who was 37 years his junior. She was known for her beauty, and she was the subject of Alphonse de Lamartine’s poems. She passed away in 1817, at the age of 33.
Jacques Alexandre passed away in his home in Paris on April 7, 1823. He was 76 years old. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) estimates that nearly 1 in 5 people live with some sort of mental illness, ranging from mild to severe.1 These conditions can have a significant effect on employee productivity and absenteeism. By providing education and resources to help employees manage mental illness, employers can help reduce or eliminate its effects on the individual and the workplace. Here are some tips to help companies reduce the stigma of mental illness, encourage treatment and provide a welcoming space for employees.
Dealing with a mental illness is a difficult enough challenge for people who live with it. Maintaining a career at the same time adds additional pressures that can affect the individual as well as their coworkers, managers and others. Here are some steps employers can take to raise awareness and lessen the impact of mental illness in the workplace:
- Include mental health awareness and educational materials in health fairs and during annual enrollment. Remind employees of the availability of these resources throughout the year.
- Educate leaders and managers on early detection and how to reduce stigmas and discrimination.
- Provide and promote employee assistance programs (EAPs) that offer confidential counseling and other benefits that support employees’ mental health.
- Proactively research potential barriers and solutions to help employees return to work after a leave of absence.
Returning to work
Employees returning to work after a mental-health-related leave may require time and accommodations as they resume their daily responsibilities—just as they would after other types of medical leave. Following these steps can help them gain the confidence needed to be successful:
- Stay engaged with employees throughout their leave of absence to ensure they are using all available benefits and feel reassured of their ability to do their job.
- Allow flexible scheduling and/or work-from-home options to accommodate medical or counseling appointments.
- If necessary, provide a graduated return to full-time status and allow time for employees to catch up on any outstanding items.
- Check in regularly through one-on-one meetings.

Your parents’ health could be one of the many factors that long-term care insurance providers take into account when deciding how much to charge you. One large insurer has started rating applicants based- in part- on the applicant’s parents’ medical histories.
Genworth- a major provider of long-term care insurance- announced that it would rate applicants based on whether their parents suffered from early onset coronary artery disease prior to age 60 or dementia prior to age 70. Genworth has four rating categories- from best to worst: “preferred best-” “preferred-” “select-” and “standard.” Applicants in the “preferred best” category pay less than applicants in the “preferred” category- and so on.
Under the new rating system- an applicant with parents who both had a history of dementia before age 70 could not rate above the “select” category. The difference in the cost of premiums can be as much as $60 a month- which can add up over time. If only one parent had a history of dementia before age 70- the applicant would be shut out of the “preferred best” class.
Long-term care insurance companies can also reject applicants whose families have a history of other conditions. For example- if an applicant’s parent has Huntington’s disease (a debilitating neurologic disorder)- the long-term care insurance company may reject the applicant altogether if she hasn’t been tested for it or has tested positive.
The Affordable Care Act prohibits medical insurers from denying coverage to applicants due to pre-existing conditions- but the same rules do not apply to long-term care insurance.

We have been on cruises all over the world but had never left from Seattle before our Alaska Cruise. It was so amazing to leave Seattle on our Alaska Cruise. Growing up in the Seattle area I am not sure how I had never taken a cruise from Seattle.
Leaving Seattle on an Alaska Cruise
Leaving from the Seattle Port Terminal is amazing. You have a fantastic view of the Space Needle and Seattle Skyline. The port terminal is a bit of a ways from downtown Seattle so make sure you have a shuttle or transportation to the port terminal.
We were lucky and had a beautiful day leaving Seattle. No rain in sight and only a few clouds.
We enjoyed watching movies on the top deck and the Seattle Skyline as we pulled out of port on our way to Alaska. The water was so smooth and calm. One thing I love about the Princess cruise ships is the movies under the stars. We were able to enjoy the Seattle skyline and relax with a fantastic movie playing. It was a gorgeous sunny day in Seattle!

Sci-fi continues to be a huge genre, with Netflix shows like 3 Body Problem and Prime Video’s The Expanse continuing to captivate audiences, and Apple TV Plus is a sci-fi TV show utopia, unveiling two new sci-fi shows – Sunny and Me – to look forward to.
If you’re impatiently waiting for Severance season two, the new arrivals could be right up your alley. Both of the shows are heading to the streamer in July. While the sci-fi shows have very different vibes to each other, they both sound intriguing.
Sunny and Me aren’t the only two new additions coming to Apple TV Plus this year. A new thriller movie called The Instigators is hitting the streamer sometime in 2024 that will see Matt Damon and Casey Affleck playing unlikely partners thrown together for a heist. Find out more about the new shows and movies coming to Apple TV Plus below.
Sunny sees Parks and Recreation star Rashida Jones playing the role of Suzie, an American woman living in Kyoto, Japan, whose husband and son disappear in a mysterious plane crash, leaving her completely devastated.
In an attempt to console her, her husband’s electronics company gives her Sunny, which is a new class of domestic robots they’ve been developing. Unlike some sci-fi shows we’ve seen, though, this robot doesn’t look like humans so it sticks out.
Unsurprisingly, it takes a while for Suzie to get used to having the robot around, but they develop an unexpected friendship. Together, they start to uncover the truth about what really happened to Suzie’s family, which in turn thrusts them into a dangerous world she never knew existed. You can stream Sunny from July 10.
The next is Me, which follows a 12-year-old boy named Ben, who is currently in middle school and dealing with all the drama that comes with it. But things get even harder when he realises he has superpowers, taking him on a journey of self-discovery. Along the way, he finds an ally in his new stepsister Max, who helps him to harness the powers and uncover some secrets among his community. You can stream Me from July 12.

Finally, Matt Damon and Casey Affleck’s new thriller movie looks like it’ll be a must watch when it hits the streamer on August 2. We don’t have too many plot details, but the brief synopsis is certainly intriguing.It reads: “A botched robbery causes two thieves to go on the run, dragging along one of their therapists in the process.”
There’s a great supporting cast attached to the movie too including The Night Agent star Hong Chau and Richard Jewell’s Paul Walter Hauser, and we’re looking forward to learning more about their characters when the movie drops.
While you wait, why not check out our list of the best Apple TV Plus shows to tide you over? There’s plenty of great stuff on here to suit all tastes, so we’ve got you covered.

Today, University of Texas System Chancellor Francisco Cigarroa sent a letter to Gov. Rick Perry weighing in on the touchy issue of allowing concealed handguns on college campuses. In short: He's against it.
Campus carry legislation passed the Texas Senate last session before stalling in the Texas House. This time around, more than half of the House members have already signed on in support of the bill, which certainly bodes well for its passage. The legislation has yet to be heard in committee in either chamber.
"As the legislature considers the important and sensitive issue of concealed handguns on campuses of institutions of higher education," Cigarroa wrote, "I would be remiss in my duties as chancellor of the state's largest university system, if I did not convey my concerns regarding this issue."
His concerns, it turns out, are numerous, ranging from unease on the part of campus mental health professionals to questions about heightened risks in laboratories and hospitals where pressurized gases are present.

Roald Dahl’s iconic story, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory has been transformed into a musical and will be hitting an Aussie stage for the first time at Sydney’s Capitol Theatre in January 2019.
It’s the magical story of a young boy, Charlie, who wins the tickets of all tickets – the golden ticket, that allows only five recipients to venture inside the mysterious and delicious chocolate factory owned by the eccentric Willy Wonka. The musical will feature the classic songs from the original film including “Pure Imagination”, “The Candy Man” and “I’ve Got a Golden Ticket”, alongside a toe-tapping and ear-tickling new score from the songwriters of Hairspray.
“Sydney has a huge treat in store next summer, and it’s a magical concoction ready to satisfy any sweet tooth looking for a golden ticket,” said Theatre producer, John Frost.
“Now prepare to be enchanted by the story once again on stage. I’m thrilled to bring this captivating production to Australia for the first time.”
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was first adapted into a musical production in 2013. It opened in London’s West End and was directed by Sam Mendes, starring Douglas Hodge as Mr Wonka. It ran for over three and a half years, with a reworked version opening on Broadway in April 2017 directed by Jack O’Brien.

AKA Stu's guest post #3.
That's right beloved reader, this is not Stephanie, but rather her home maintenance and bedroom satisfaction guy. I had to put that last part in since I was given strict instructions to "don't post anything naughty" (oops, blew that rule).
Anyway, the little lady was off this weekend being all PTAish and stuff while I pine away at home (don't cry for me Argentina). I took this opportunity to put in a new toilet and faucet in our downstairs bathroom. While buying the toilet and faucet, our son (who has a hard time with change) questioned me incessantly about why we need a new toilet. Regular reasoning did no good.
Boy: Dad why do we need a new toilet? I like our toilet.
Me: Because that toilet is always plugging.
Boy: It works fine for me...most of the time...
Me: Exactly. "Mostly" is not how I like my toilets to work.
Boy: Why is this one better?
Me: Well in our toilet the poop moves very slow. If I am poop (snicker) and move very slow toward you (I am now slowly moving toward him) how hard is it to stop me? (I am now sort of gently bumping and swirling around him)
Boy (now giggling as Poop Dad is bumping him): easy
Me: Now, if I am the same poop and I am running at you, can you stop me? (I am now running right at him)
Me: This is why we need a new toilet.
Poop talk always works with boys
Sorry to not have a very long post, but both of the kids are sleeping at friend's houses, Stephanie is almost home, and I need to get ready for some of that 'home maintenance' I was not supposed to mention... | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Green transport for rent in Holland
What They Said.
“The ‘pandemic’ represents a rare but narrow window of opportunity to reflect, reimagine, and reset our world”—Who says so?—Professor Klaus Schwab, Founder, and Executive Chairman, of the World Economic Forum.
“DNA, ‘COVID-19’ Vaccines Should Give Us Extreme Control Over Populations World Wide.”—Who says so?—Bill Gates. Contributing Partner, World Economic Forum.“Welcome to 2030.
I Own Nothing, I Have No Privacy, And Life Has Never Been Better!”—Who says so?—Ida Auken, parliament member of Denmark.
"We will own nothing and be happy!" "Everything we need we will rent!" World Economic Forum.
Little did we know—back in January 2020, that already, something called the Great Reset had been hatched and had begun.’ We were being set up! And, it had not only been planned, “years earlier” but had also been hidden, in “plain sight,” as they say, right under our noses and often discussed openly.
What is happening all around us—Massive price hacks, energy prices 125% higher than a person's state pension, unpayable petrol and diesel prices, food shortages and double-digit inflation can't all be blamed on Russia! This is an incredibly sneaky plan unleashed by the UN, corrupt governments and the elite.
During the last couple of months here in Holland, I have noticed a new phenomenon. Green electric scooters with the word "GO" on the side, see the video above.
They can be found on almost every street corner, and one appeared outside my drive just last week, apparently, someone just left it there after he /she finished their ride. These scooters can be hired by anyone who downloads an app onto their phone and pay the rent fee, simple right?
This week I began to see electric bicycles also on street corners alongside the scooters, also available for everyone to rent! So I visited the GO Sharing sight only to find out it is also possible to rent electric cars too! It's all green though, 100% electric.
And another new phenomenon—Since time and memorial petrol prices have been considerably higher than diesel here in Holland. In July diesel prices suddenly raced past petrol prices, which is an incredible feat when you consider petrol prices are also rising insanely fast. Diesel cars are over-and-out because it will be impossible to run one—All diesel delivery vans and trucks and trains will be gone within 5 years—Followed by petrol cars by 2030. I am not being a conspiracy theorist, that is a fact.
Owning a car will soon be a thing of the past, for the working and middle class that is! What is happening here in Holland is clear to see, the 4th industrial revolution, which is what they call it is being calmly introduced.
It is kind of ironic that today and Californians are being told not to charge electric cars because of overuse of the electric grid during the most recent heatwave. Heatwaves are here to stay and increasing at an alarming rate.

Duration : 1 year

COMMENT FROM THE AMBASSADOR
Unfortunately due to Covid19 the Easter 2020 pop-up we funded had to be cancelled, as has the Summer pop-up. The funding has been carried over to the Easter 2021 pop-up which we are hopeful will be able to go ahead. In the meantime, Gympanzees has launched a new “Our Home” project which provides online support to families with therapist-run Zoom sessions. They have also made available a Lending Library from which families can borrow specialist equipment such as sensory toys or therapy equipment.

SAILOR’S Society has launched a crisis appeal to support Ukrainian seafarers impacted by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
Ukrainian seafarers account for 4% of the global seafaring community, according to the 2021 Seafarer Workforce Report from ICS and BIMCO.
At the time of the report’s publication, this equated to more than 76,000 Ukrainian nationals working on merchant vessels.
A statement from the Sailor’s Society said seafarers’ jobs are already difficult, but the conflict has made life at sea even more challenging.
It said Ukrainian seafarers need urgent support, and their families now require additional welfare grants to pay for food, transport, medicine, and shelter.
Sailor’s Society CEO Sara Baade said those at sea may be thousands of miles away from friends and family, anxious and powerless to help as the crisis escalates.
“I have been talking to our chaplains about their conversations with those affected,” Ms Baade said.
“All are extremely concerned for the safety of their families. Some are frightened to return to their country, as they know it will mean taking up arms.
“Many sob as they talk about their fears and frustrations. This is tearing them apart.”
Sailor’s Society is maximising its support amidst the conflict through an increase in emergency grants for seafarers and their families.
The charity is also drafting in more trained staff to resource its Crisis Response Network, which provides financial and mental support for those impacted by traumatic events.
It is also increasing its capacity to respond to a larger number of calls on its helpline.
“I’m so thankful that we can be there for them – to listen and comfort, to pray by their sides and provide Wi-Fi units, so they can call their loved ones, hear their voices, and share messages of love and support,” Ms Baade said.
The charity has also set up three peer-to-peer support groups through WhatsApp, which will facilitate assistance and support between seafarers impacted by the conflict.
Two support groups will allow Ukrainian and Russian seafarers to connect with other crews from their respective countries in their own languages.
The third group will connect seafarers from other nationalities, who may be serving under officers from Russia or Ukraine who are concerned about their homes and families.
Sailor’s Society is also supporting its chaplains in Ukraine, who are trying to keep their own families safe while helping their communities. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Following Milan Design Week, I spotted a distinct trend for unusual shaped rugs. It would appear that rugs don’t just come in standard rectangle or circular shapes anymore.
A couple of months ago, we got a professional company in to clean the carpets at work. Both my bosses regularly bring their dogs in to work and with moderate foot fall through the building, the carpets were starting to look really rather filthy. It didn’t help that the carpets were fairly poor quality to
Happy Valentine’s everyone! Do you celebrate Valentine’s day? My husband and I tend not to only because it seems silly to celebrate your love for one another on one particular day.

And that is exactly what Sukhi is all about. Working together with skilled artisans in India, Turkey, Nepal and Morocco, Sukhi produces beautiful handmade
Other than wallcoverings, artwork and textiles, I think rugs are a really great way to personalise your space in a non permanent way. They allow you to put your own stamp on your interior and can really make a bold statement with the right design. Sadly in my flat we have no need for rugs
Today I wanted to share with you the latest collection of rugs from Rug Maker. I have previously featured the Stamp Rug Collection by Rug Maker, so I’m already of fan of their products.

(Note: This was written before Lebron James made his Decision to go back to Cleveland to play for the Cavs.)
Cleveland basketball fans may now have another reason to feel paranoid today.
That’s because Lebron James is buying a pizza franchise -10 of them, actually…and opening them up in South Florida.
That’s where King James decided to “take his talents” 4 short years ago.
And, now that’s where he’s investing-as part of his business strategy I guess, a teeny-tiny portion of his money.
Blaze Pizza Franchise: Why Is LeBron Opening 10 Locations
Important Update: This is Why
Have you ever heard of the Blaze Pizza Franchise?
I haven’t either.
Until now. Seems like Lebron has a business strategy here. Beyond basketball.
Remember: Lebron wants to be a billionaire. Basketball isn’t going to get him there.
From the Blaze Pizza Franchise website:
“Exceptional quality at lightning fast speed is what we’re all about. Blaze Pizza. Head food guy, Executive Chef Bradford Kent (aka “The Pizza Whisperer”). Fresh, made-from-scratch dough. Healthful, artisanal ingredients on the assembly line. Inventive to classic. You decide. Blazing hot oven + dedicated pizzasmith + 180 seconds = fast-fire’d, perfectly crisp perfection. Sound good? Enjoy the rest of your day.”
Blaze Pizza franchise restaurants features signature pies like the meat eater, green stripe, red vine, and veg out as well as custom-made pizzas. They’re all priced under $8.
At this time, Blaze Pizza franchises are only being sold to people who have the financial ability to open at least 10 franchise locations in an area. Obviously, Lebron qualifies.
Multi-unit franchising can be a great thing. Fortunes have been built over the years. There are franchisees in the U.S. -most of them in the food sector, that own 100+ franchise locations…and the revenue numbers are astronomical as you might imagine.
Do You Qualify For A Blaze Pizza Franchise?
See below-this information is from the Blaze Pizza franchise website.
Applicants must meet the below qualification criteria to gain consideration for a Blaze Pizza Franchise:
• Experience as a multi-unit restaurant operator and recognition as a top operator
• Well-capitalized to meet the aggressive development schedule
• Infrastructure and resources to meet our development schedule
• Real Estate experience in the market to be developed
• Total commitment to the development of the Blaze Pizza brand
• Cultural fit and a passion for the Blaze Pizza brand
Why Is LeBron Opening 10 Pizza Franchises in South Florida?
But, why is Lebron putting 10 Blaze Pizza franchises in South Florida?
Why not open 10 franchises in Cleveland?
GOP Convention attendees would probably flock to them if they opened near Quicken Loans Arena, where the Republican National Convention will take place in 2016.
Did I mention that’s where the Cleveland Cavaliers play?
Maybe I’m reading too much into Lebron’s Pizza franchise Decision.
Nah…I’m probably just being paranoid.
And, Lebron has a plan. A strategy.
A future billionaire’s plan?

Here is the second part of the best jazz albums of 2013, enjoy! Check out the first part, if you missed it.
Garrett's seventeenth album showcases the 52-year-old's immense talent and passion as he continues to be one of the biggest modern icons of jazz. The 12 tracks journey through a variety of styles with many of the songs being homages to fellow jazz legends. This album shows Garrett is a powerfully deep musician who is at the top of his game.
On his fourth album and debut on Blue Note, Jose James expands his sound as he blurs the boundaries between jazz, neo-soul, and funk as he breaks out to a more mainstream audience. To do this he works with an all-star line-up including Pino Palladino (bass), Robert Glasper (keys), Chris Dave (drums), Emily King(vocals) and Hindi Zahra(vocals). The result is sophisticated yet relaxing and a masterpiece by this young singer/songwriter.
Avant-garde improviser Roscoe Mitchell joins up with the talented Tyshawn Sorey as well as Hugh Ragin on a few tracks to create this explorative album. Full of intense interaction and fragmented bursts of sound, these musicians explore new realms of sonic possibilities with a variety of bells, horns, piano and percussion.
This solid album has a classic late 50's post-bop style but still sounds new and modern. The 50-year-old Douglas' tackles an array of challenging harmonic material with his adept band consisting of Jon Irabagon (sax), Matt Mitchell (piano), Linda Oh (bass), and Rudy Royston (drums).
This recording picks up where Coltrane left off and continues to explore the integration of Indian musical melodic structures and rhythms with western music. Mahanthappa brings in virtuoso guitarist David Fiuczynski to play with Francois Moutin (bass) and Dan Weiss (drums) and this group plays with passion and precision on these exciting recordings. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
If you haven't already read James' superb coverage of Iowa, do have a look at Coffee House.
It's certainly better than the nonsense and bias served up by the BBC, for which we are of course all forced to pay under threat of imprisonment. Last night's Ten O'Clock News on BBC1 - the corporation's flagship bulletin - decided that there was only one race, that for the Democrats. Justin Webb, the corporation's US Editor, did not consider it worth mentioning the name of a single Republican, or worth informing his viewers that there will be a Republican contender in November, too. His report was entirely focused on Obama, Clinton and Edwards. It is, presumably, beyond the conception of the BBC that the Americans might return a Republican to the White House after the experience of George W Bush, so why bother mentioning that there was a Republican contest in Iowa, too?
Webb has form. Last April,Mr Webb was being interviewed on Radio Five Live about how the US television networks were losing viewers to cable and the internet: There are three groups of people who don't watch the evening news any more, and they are intelligent people, young people, and right-wing people. Obviously there are some people who fall into all three categories - at least arguably [he added, laughing].
Clearly it is not possible to be Right-wing and intelligent, according to Mr Webb, So no wonder he doesn't think it worth bothering his British viewers with news of the Republican contest. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
- Registration type
About registration types
The registration types are as follows:
- The Breed Register is for pedigree dogs where both parents are also recorded on this register.
- The Activity Register is open to all dogs, both pedigree and crossbreed to allow them to exhibit in Kennel Club licensed events for disciplines such as agility, flyball etc.
- Not registered dogs can be viewed if they are related to a Kennel Club registered dog and may themselves be registered elsewhere with another club or society.
The results and calculated health information below are from information received and recorded by The Kennel Club, and may not include all health screening undertaken by the dog's owners.
You can find more information on what these results mean/breeding advice and also on what health screening is relevant to your breed on The Kennel Club Breed A-Z. Please note: you will need to click on your breed to see the full list.
The degree of inbreeding can be measured using a calculation called the coefficient of inbreeding (CoI), or inbreeding coefficient. The lower the degree of inbreeding, the lower the inbreeding coefficient.
What do these results mean?
Our inbreeding calculators give you a percentage score. The lower the percentage, the lower the degree of inbreeding.
To put your result into perspective:
- 0% = a dog with two apparently unrelated parents (based on all available pedigree information)
- 12.5% = the genetic equivalent of a dog produced from a grandfather to granddaughter mating, or the mating of a half-brother/sister
- 25% = the genetic equivalent of a dog produced from a father to daughter mating, or the mating of full-brother/sister
- More than 25% = inbreeding is accumulative, so if it has occurred to a significant degree over several generations, the inbreeding coefficient may be greater than 25%
Understanding this result
In general the lower the result, the lower the risk of this dog having health issues. It's important to remember that these results are a measure of risk, rather than a direct measure of health.
Always check the number of generations
Always check to see how many generations have been used for the calculation. If only three generations are fully complete, you may wish to use these results with care. If additional pedigree information or inbreeding resources are available to you, you may wish to consult these.
For dogs that have been imported, we may only have a three-generation pedigree, so it may be difficult for us to calculate an informative COI.
An individual's result should not be taken into consideration when selecting a dog for mating, instead it's the mating inbreeding coefficient that should be used, as this looks at how related two potential mates are.
You find the inbreeding calculation for hypothetical matings on our health test results finder service.
Where can I find out more about inbreeding, inbreeding calculators or breeding advice?
How is the breed average calculated?
The breed average is calculated each June using dogs registered with The Kennel Club born in the UK between January and December of the previous year. Using this data is a more effective means of monitoring yearly change than by using the average of all living dogs in that breed.
In smaller breeds, if no dogs have been born in that year, the breed average will default to the last year in which a calculation could be performed. In breeds where there is no available breed average data for the past five years, the annual breed average will display as N/A. This may include breeds where no dogs have been born in the UK for five years or more, or some newly recognised breeds.

A report suggests that a Samsung and OpenAI partnership is being discussed for the latter to power AI features in Samsung Galaxy smartphones. Currently, Samsung leverages Google’s Gemini Nano model to power the suite of Galaxy AI features, aside from Gemini, Circle to Search, and more.
If OpenAI manages to pull it off, it would be a major win for the company, as Samsung is one of the biggest smartphone makers in the world, which would help it expand ChatGPT access to a wider user base. However, whether Samsung will completely ditch Google in favour of OpenAI is unclear. That would be unlikely, though, as Google has maintained a long-standing partnership with Samsung, collaborating on numerous features.
Meanwhile, the report adds that OpenAI is also working on a ChatGPT-powered browser that will
announced ChatGPT Search last month. With the Search feature in the chatbot, ChatGPT will choose to search the web based on what you ask, or you can manually select to search by clicking the web search icon.A partnership with OpenAI and Google doesn’t mean Samsung is giving up on its efforts on AI, as the company recently unveiled its AI-backed Bixby in China. Samsung highlighted four major new capabilities of the next-generation Bixby, starting with incorporating video into responses. For example, Bixby can now add relevant videos to text replies when requesting travel tips. Another new feature enables Bixby to translate entire web pages, making accessing information in different languages easier. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

VALENCIA // Sebastian Vettel brushed wheels with Lewis Hamilton during the opening seconds of yesterday's European Grand Prix, but that was the only time anybody got close. The German was in a league of his own for most of the afternoon as he notched Red Bull-Renault's fourth Formula One victory of the season. Problems? They were for other people - and they were manifold.
Vettel made a decent start from pole position to lead Hamilton and the Ferraris of Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa, but Mark Webber was slow away from the grid in the second Red Bull. The Australian dropped from second to fifth within the space of two corners - and lost another four places before the lap was out. After that disastrous start, Webber peeled into the pits on lap seven to change tyres - a switch of tactics that was worth a risk, given the circumstances.
He came out almost at the tail of the field, down among this year's new teams and right behind Heikki Kovalainen's Lotus-Cosworth. As he and Webber approached Turn 12 for the ninth time, the Finn stuck to the centre of the road as the Australian looked for a way through. Webber's car rode up over Kovalainen's right rear wheel and the car somersaulted once before landing the right way up and continuing into the tyre wall at barely abated speed. He swiftly unclipped his belts, however, and strolled away, his title hopes less seriously damaged than his car, but dented nonetheless. Kovalainen spun left into the retaining wall and his race, too, was run.
The safety car was promptly scrambled - and its emergence conditioned much of what followed. Robert Kubica, in fifth place, and most of the following drivers headed straight for the pits to make their mandatory tyre changes while the race was neutralised, but Vettel, Hamilton, Alonso and Massa carried on. The safety car joined the track just as Hamilton reached the pit exit: the McLaren driver hesitated for a second, then overtook it while the two Ferraris slowed up and tucked in behind.
Hamilton would later be given a drive-through penalty for this misdemeanour, but he had an unlikely saviour: BMW Sauber opted not to pit Kamui Kobayashi during the flurry of tyre stops, a decision that promoted the Japanese driver to an unlikely third place on the road, ahead of Jenson Button's McLaren. When the race resumed at the end of lap 14, Vettel and Hamilton swiftly dropped Kobayashi and were soon far enough ahead for the Englishman to be able to serve his penalty, on lap 27, without losing a position. He resumed 14 seconds in arrears and spent the balance of the race chipping away at the German's lead, but Vettel was always in control.
"Once I knew about Lewis's penalty I just concentrated on conserving the car and bringing it home in one piece," Vettel said. "I flat-spotted a tyre shortly after the restart, which gave me a bit of a vibration, but it wasn't too bad and it just feels nice to win again." Kobayashi frustrated Button until the 53rd of 57 laps before finally making his tyre stop, which dropped him to ninth. But the cocktail of fresh Bridgestone tyres and low fuel gave him a significant performance edge and during the final two laps he rattled past Alonso and Sebastien Buemi to take seventh place, behind Rubens Barrichello (who capitalised on a swift tyre stop to record Williams-Toyota's best result of the campaign), Kubica and Adrian Sutil.
Post-race, the race stewards gave five-second penalties to 10 drivers for driving too fast behind the safety car. As a consequence Buemi and Pedro de la Rosa, the BMW-Sauber driver, both lost positions. Buemi losing eighth to Alonso, and de la Rosa gave up 10th to Nico Rosberg's Mercedes GP. @Email:firstname.lastname@example.org | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

It has been 150 years since the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was ratified by Congress and five decades since the march on Washington where Martin Luther King delivered his monumental “I Have A Dream” speech.
Nevertheless, even now, when common sense and equality for all reign as dominant ideologies in the Western world, we see cases like the shootings of Trayvon Martin – just two years ago – and Michael Brown on Aug. 9, which led to massive protests and accusations of racial profiling and discrimination by law enforcement.
Yet, beyond the questions of skin color and hierarchy during the past few weeks, a larger concern emerged. The people whose duty is to protect the public have transformed into an iron-fisted regime, arresting and persecuting those who show signs of being subversive or oppositional to government policies.
Militarization of the police department did not highly concern the general public until the problems in Ferguson, when Americans witnessed police forces using body armor, water cannons, tear gas and armored vehicles against innocent civilians. However, this is not something that simply started out of the blue.
Due to the worsening drug crisis of the 1990s, Section 1208 in the National Defense Authorization Act of 1990 had authorized for excess military hardware to be transferred to law enforcement agencies. Since then, it has also been extended to distribution to foreign military sales, humanitarian agency and emergency management in the U.S. According to the Defense Logistics Agency, $5.1 billion worth of equipment and property has been transferred since the regulation was adopted, with $4.5 billion of it transferred to the law enforcement agencies.
So, it shouldn’t be much of a shock to see Humvees in our suburban communities at night or for a police officer standing guard in a mall with an M16 in his hand. Of course, compared to mass shooters who escaped background checks in various gun stores, or the hardliners of the NRA who believe that the Second Amendment applies to every single American citizen to protect themselves from domestic “enemies” in the form of immigrants and asylum seekers, it would be better indeed to have the guns in the hands of those who have been assigned to protect our homes and loved ones.
Still, the question remains as to whether measures taken to ensure the people’s safety are really worth the guns, bullets, and armories in police possession. Wouldn’t it be better if police action were concentrated on building a “healthier” community that is economically living under a secure roof and has a decent source of income? Wouldn’t it be better to demonstrate the civility that the Western civilization claims to have over other ways of life?
Or should we simply continue to supply our police departments with heavy artillery and plant the seeds of distrust in our neighborhoods? Ongoing militarization of the law enforcement agency has shown that we would rather choose security in distrust than harmony in common sense.
Only time will tell if all of those bullets are worth the pennies spent and the blood spilt.

T-Mobil AG, the wireless service unit of Germany's incumbent operator, Deutsche Telekom AG, said Friday that it will start offering multimedia messaging service (MMS) from today.
T-Mobil will become one of the first operators outside of Japan to offer the high-tech evolution of the phenomenally popular short message service (SMS) technology, which has so far accounted for the build up of data service revenue generated by GSM network operators.
J-Phone Ltd and KDDI Inc, the two smaller rival of Japan's NTT DoCoMo, have enjoyed some success with their early variants of MMS, which the companies have both promoted by selling as an adjunct to handsets that incorporate digital cameras. The two companies have credited this new image-based dimension to messaging with enabling them to claw back market share form DoCoMo, which was slower to realize the appeal of camera-phones.
In Europe, T-Mobil is the first to enter service with a full MMS platform, and is taking its lead from its Japanese counterparts by supporting the service with camera-enabled phones. In this case the Sony Ericsson T68i, which has an add-on camera module, and the Nokia 7650 which has an embedded digital camera, will be offered to MMS users at heavily discounted prices: 299.95 euros ($295.87) and 349.95 euros ($345.19) respectively.
As a further sweetener, T-Mobile will not charge for MMS messages themselves for the first month of the service, after which it will charge 0.39 euros ($0.38) for a 30KB message (which might contain an audio message) or 0.99 euros ($0.98) for a 100KB message, which might contain a video file.
T-Mobil's progress with MMS will doubtless be watched closely by rival operators and handset makers alike. The whole wireless industry is currently sweating over the appetite users may, or may not have for next generation wireless data services, and MMS is believed by some to be most likely a "killer app" that will drive uptake of data network services. However, as T-Mobil's announcement shows, the unfamiliarity of MMS, and the high price of MMS-enabled handsets are both barriers which may delay its uptake in the near term. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Reviewer: Carrie Lee O’Dell
In his new solo show —To T, or Not to T— actor/writer/comic D’Lo addresses the intersection of multiple aspects of his identity. With razor-sharp wit and impeccable comic timing, he navigates the rocky road of coming out as queer, trans, and not-going-to-be-a-doctor to his Tamil family with a little help from Yo! MTV Raps.
Framing anecdotes from his life with excerpts from a speech his father made at his wedding, D’Lo describes life growing up in southern California, the tomboy youngest child of Sri Lankan immigrants in the late 1980s. As he grows up, he finds himself more and more uncomfortable in a female body. In college, he identifies as queer, and then trans, getting top surgery and eventually taking testosterone. His parents are unsure of how to handle having a trans child; while they aren’t always supportive, they “[don’t] disown” him and eventually embrace him not just as their child, but as a man.
D’Lo tells the audience early on that this is “a show about [his] Appa,” and it’s evident that father and child share a close bond, even when D’Lo was considered a daughter rather than a son. At one point, D’Lo’s mother, Sita, tells her son that he is just like his father; at this moment, it’s clear that D’Lo’s father has played a significant role in shaping the man he has become. Testosterone (the “T” of the play’s title) is only a small part of D’Lo’s masculinity, though it does make him sound “like Drake on Autotune.”
To T, or Not to T confronts some tragic events, including the death of a family member, and D’Lo somehow manages to give those events the gravity they require even in the midst of a side-splittingly funny show. D’Lo loves to hear his audience laugh; he is a generous comic, sensing when the room wants more and when they want to move on. Part of Dixon Place’s HOT! Festival, the show is presented on a set that’s designed to come down nightly, relying on monkey bars and a child’s tea set to establish themes of youth and innocence. Projections by Meena Murugesan help show D’Lo’s inner turmoil.
It is an absolute delight to watch D’Lo perform. He is welcoming, genuine, and positively hilarious. At the same time, he does not hide the pain and confusion he felt as he came into his own as a man and as a son. When the show ends and he invites the audience upstairs to Dixon Place’s bar, it feels like you’ve just been invited to the best party on the planet. Don’t squander that invitation; this play should not be missed.

Later, in 2016, he moved to Bahrain for another work assignment. During his time in Bahrain, he joined RGC (Royal Golf Club) and continues to enjoy playing there every weekend, even during the summer months.

Are we, as humans, capable of coping with the complex problems created by human progress? Population ageing and global warming are both challenges resulting from success. Globalisation too is hastened by man-made advances in technology and trade. But globalisation also brings great problems in its wake. Scanning this morning’s papers provides a fascinating insight into the dilemmas we face.
On the national finance scale Geoff Mulgan and Will Hutton’s piece in the Guardian calls for better regulation of banks to avoid further credit crunch fiascos. Individuals are just as vulnerable to the blows dealt by changes in the economic cycle, but thus far the benefits conferred to the banks have not been passed on to the individual – this is particularly important in terms of engendering public trust in national institutions.
In the FT, David Sproul and Bill Dodwell argue that the major companies are leaving the UK because they not only face relatively high corporate taxes, but are concerned that the treasury will tax certain kinds of overseas profit as well.
Reading these in conjunction reminded me of the debate around Joseph Stiglitz’s new book Making Globalization Work, which was recently reviewed by Robert Skidelsky in the New York Review of Books. For globalisation to benefit the whole world, and for developed countries to be willing to make the adjustments necessary for global fairness, we will need to have better global regulatory organisations.
The question is – where is the political will to make this happen? If one country were to act on its own it would inevitably lose out in the global market.
A lot of this is about complex policy issues and institutional reform at a global level. But underlying this are questions as to whether we, as citizens of this new world, are able to understand its realities and able to give our leaders the scope to show leadership. The choices we as citizens make are just as important as those of our leaders.
As David Aaronovich points out in the Times this tension is playing out in the Clinton / Obama race. Interestingly both candidates are keen to be seen as progressives on the world stage, while at the same time offering protectionist policies to their electorate.
So while the main victims of globalisation are the poorest people, mainly living in Sub-Saharan Africa, the most vociferous opponents are the formerly skilled manual workers of the developed world.
Skidelsky argues that the problem with Stiglitz’s book is that it doesn’t recognise that you need to co-opt those people in the developed world that feel they’re losing out, and show how they too can gain from globalization. Otherwise we have a globalised world governed by national imaginations.
Returning to a well worn theme the answers here must combine citizen-centric and government-centric solutions.
For example, we need new collective institutions (both in the real and virtual world) that help constitute a global civil society. Two examples of this are the fair trade movement, and, importantly, the Make Poverty History Campaign. Both are focussed in their scope but have had an impact on changing the way people think about their money and their ‘stuff’. Globalisation will only work for humans if appropriately regulated. Regulation has to happen on a global scale. But leaders will not rise to this challenge unless we as citizens are more able to think globally ourselves.
As we begin to imagine the post-pandemic world, we need to challenge our use of old metaphors to allow for new narratives and better futures to emerge.
With the post-Christmas resolutions looming, when we try to address the worst of our seasonal over-indulgences, the question remains: how can we give up bad habits for good? | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

To the list of unpleasing settings the center brought to Schmidt’s mind, he added a fishbowl.
And it implicitly normalizes what just six months ago would have looked queasily unpleasing or off-kilter to discerning audiences.
Maybe the tortilla-to-filling ratio is just totally off, or maybe the haphazard application of rice led to a clumpy, aesthetically unpleasing "burrito ball"?
On a night when the defenses ruled, Brady did just enough to win his sixth Super Bowl ring , leading the New England Patriots to an aesthetically unpleasing 13-3 victory Sunday over the Los Angeles Rams.
“The result is a sad jumble of shops, booths, and bazaars often unpleasing in themselves and incongruous when taken together.”

Accordionists are skilled musicians who master the art of playing the accordion. They're often hired to perform at special events such as weddings, parties, and cultural festivals. While the term "accordionist" is the most commonly used one to refer to these musicians, there are some synonyms that can be used as well. These include squeezebox player, concertina player, melodeon player and button box player. No matter what term you use, the accordionist is an important part of any musical performance that features this unique instrument. They add a distinctive sound to any songs and are skilled at creating the right atmosphere for any event. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Six Advantages of Using a Moving Service
Moving from one home to another has to be one of life’s most stressful events even if you’re only moving across town. After all, regardless of where you’re going, you still have to pack up tons of boxes, lift heavy appliances and furniture, and make sure that everything gets to its final destination safely.
If you’ve decided not to use a professional mover because you think that you’ll save money this way, think again. Most moving companies such as long distance movers in NJ, their prices are much lower than you think and hiring them saves you a lot of time as well. In fact, let’s take a look at some of the many advantages that a professional moving company can offer you at your next relocation.
1. They Do the Packing for You
Packing your household goods can easily equal one-fourth of your moving expenses because boxes, padding, and packing tape aren’t cheap. Hiring a moving company means that they’ll use just the right number of boxes; therefore, nothing will be wasted. It is much more efficient, not to mention a lot faster and a lot less stressful on your part. And, it will save you tons of time because they are the experts and can pack quickly but efficiently every time.
2. Their Moving Trucks Are Just Right
When you move your household yourself, you’ll likely end up borrowing a friend’s pickup truck but this is seldom sufficient for moving everything in your home. A moving company has vehicles of all sizes and can pack all of your belongings at the same time, which means that one trip is all you’ll need to make sure that your things end up at their new home safely. They also make sure that everything inside of the truck is packed properly so that nothing breaks along the way.
3. They Give Straightforward, Accurate Estimates
When you’re trying to come up with an estimate on moving your household goods yourself, that estimate is likely to keep changing because it is a difficult estimate to determine. This isn’t so with a professional mover because they will come out to your home and review your situation. Once they provide you with an estimate, that number usually doesn’t change unless something out of the ordinary happens.
4. They Provide Storage Facilities When You Need Them
When you’re relocating, it’s possible that you may need a temporary storage facility to hold your belongings for a day or two or even longer. Professional moving companies always have storage facilities where they can bring your belongings when you need them to. Their storage facilities are located everywhere; therefore, they’ll know just which facility to use to store your belongings in a place that is convenient for you until you need them again.
5. They Offer the Customer Service That You Need
Top-notch customer service is something that all professional moving companies offer and it goes a long way in helping you when something unexpected happens during the moving process. From the time the movers show up to pack your boxes to the time you get into your new home, these companies are there for you if something should go wrong even if it happens in the middle of the night. They will also let you know where the moving van is at any given time, allowing you to track when your belongings will get to your new home.
6. Your Belongings Will Be Safe and Insured
If you use a friend’s pickup truck for your move, you’ll never know how safe and secure your belongings are. When you use the services of a professional mover like Premiere Van Lines, they make sure that the items are safe and will even insure them so that if something does happen, they can make it right. For the entire move, you can therefore rest assured that your belongings are going to be safe and this offers the peace of mind that you can’t get when you move things yourself. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
I can say a word about our national service model for an integrated community stroke service, which involves a number of specific projects aimed at improving delivery of psychological rehabilitation. The ICSS model is vital to support psychological recovery, return to work and improved quality of life, and I would be more than happy to discuss it further with my hon. Friend.
Before I close, I want to recognise the remarkable work of the charities that help people across the country to rebuild their lives after a stroke. Once again, I thank the hon. Member for Glastonbury and Somerton for this important debate, and I encourage every Member of the House to go to change.nhs.uk and to get involved in the biggest conversation about our health and care service since its foundation in 1948.

Does your business need a re-brand? If so, here are a few important things to consider.
Innocent, Apple and Nike all have one thing in common – they are global brands with clear and purposeful identities.
A great brand can build your business reputation. Equally, a poor brand can reflect badly on your sales.
A strong, recognisable brand will help your business build a reputation in your target market. A brand can also be a work of artistic integrity, exhibiting heritage and tradition. So, how can you achieve this?
Firstly, if you are the one paying for the brand, you must admit to yourself that you are not a professional designer.
When it comes to proper design and proper re-branding, you must accept that a professional designer will, most of the time, have a better ‘eye’ than you.
When choosing a professional designer, look at their portfolio and their previous clients. Ask yourself – ‘Would I be happy to appear on that list?’
The pre-digital brand
Another key element to consider is how your brand looks and feels on digital channels. For example, if you have a ‘cluttered’ brand identity, it may not look quite so good on smaller mobile screens.
Four questions you should ask before a re-brand
Before you delve into a re-brand, you should ask yourself four simple questions:
- Does your brand feel out of date?
- Have your products or services changed in recent times?
- Are you losing your target audience?
- Is your brand consistent and understood across all of your business activities?
If your answers to these questions point towards the need for a re-brand, you should talk with a designer and discuss the following three elements:
Simplicity: Clean, bold lines with no clutter. Don’t use any elements that will distract from your key message.
Originality: The colour palette, shape, symbolism and flow of your design should be original. Don’t try and ape a competitor’s brand.
Versatility: Your brand should have a lasting impact on potential customers and it must be consistent as well as versatile. Your brand identity should be transferable across all media. It should look as good on a billboard as a smartphone screen.
Effective communication with your customers is key to increasing revenues. Your brand identity is a vital first step in that process. The more effective you are at communicating with your audience, the better you’ll be at bringing in revenue. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Wearing the right bra for your body shape is very important. Choose a well-fitting one that will complement your figure and body shape and will affect how good you look once you are dressed as well as give you a great foundation.
What you wear underneath your well-chosen clothes will make a big difference to the way you feel. Women have different body shapes, and these body shapes need different types of undergarment.
Bra for Apple Shaped Women
If you have an apple-shaped body, you have a larger bust, broader shoulders, narrower hips, and a less defined waist. Because you tend to have larger breasts, it is essential to choose a well-fitting one that provides the correct lift and support you need.
Wearing the right fitting bra completes the enhancement and should also be comfortable to wear. If you have larger breasts, it’s also a good idea to go for a professional measurement from time to time. Incorrect fitting bras can cause puckering, rubbing and even back pain, not to mention the obvious spilling out of bigger bosoms.
Bra for Pear Shaped Women
If you are pear-shaped, you have wider hips and thighs, narrower shoulders, wider bottom, smaller bust. You have smaller breasts, so it is quite easy to compensate and give yourself a boost in this area with the help of a push-up bra or a Wonderbra.
Padded bras will make you feel more blessed along the chest area, and it will also help to create the look of having a more defined waist.
Bra for Hourglass Shaped Women
If you have hourglass shaped body, your bust and hips are nearly the same size, and you have a well-defined waist. You may have a tendency to want to cover up your ample chest area as they feel they are too large at the top, some hourglass shaped women try to squeeze into bras with a smaller cup size as a hope to reduce the emphasis on the bust.
The classic underwired bra is perfect in that department!
Bra for Boyish Shaped Women
If your body is boyish shaped, you have an undefined waist, narrower hips, and a small bust. The boyish shaped woman usually has very little in the breast area; you can compensate yourself by giving yourself a boost with the help of the right bra.
In that case, go for a sensual push-up! Try one of the push-up styles out there. There a variety of them for every breast type. You can go for removable pads or a bra with gradual thickening of the foam in the cups. You can even have cleavage too! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

If you’ve ever wanted your site to have something like a lead capture page, a members area, or some other kind of page that requires interaction from the user, than Custom PHP Programming may be for you!
Custom PHP programming can also include service kind of sites. For instance, if you ever wanted your own Traffic Exchange, Tracker Site, and any other kind of service that users sign up for. Most sites that are services include some kind of free plan, and then an upgraded paid plan with more features.
So if you have some brilliant idea, how do you know it is worth hiring a PHP programmer? Below I’ll go over some things to consider:
Consider your budget
If you have less than $500, then I wouldn’t suggest hiring a programmer to create a full blown website. They can take quite alot of time, and you don’t want to find yourself having to cut corners! If, however, its just a modification or addition to your existing site, than having less than $500 wouldn’t be bad.
Consider your market
How big is it? Is it a unique market? Are there any sites that currently offer what your bright idea is? Try doing some real research on this. You don’t want to jump into a market that already has large companies spending tons of money on their sites that people already love. It would take a whole lot to compete with them.
Consider your target audience
If your target audience is teenagers, you’ll be in for some trouble. Rarely do teenagers have money to spend, and even if they do – most either aren’t willing to spend it online, or aren’t capable of it. The younger your audience is, the harder it’ll be to get them to spend (unless you target their parents). Of course, there are exceptions to this.. It’s just alot harder.
After you’ve considered those three things, and you REALLY think you have a GOOD IDEA, then you’ll want to start rolling it into action. Remember, you’ve got to really think this through, and do alot more planning than what I’m telling you here. I’m no legal expert, and their are tons of laws that are unique to certain types of businesses, so you’ll need to do some consulting on that too. Below I’ll go over what you need to do when hiring a PHP programmer.
Review their experience
If you hire someone with little experience, they’ll likely take longer to create what it is you are looking for. For instance, I’ve built dozens of traffic exchanges – I already know exactly what it takes to make one tick, I could build one much faster than someone who doesn’t. You could hire someone to build you a traffic exchange, and have to describe anti-cheating technologies, most of which you don’t even see while surfing an exchange yourself.
If a programmer doesn’t have a website with their portfolio, areas of expertise, etc – ask them for it. Just because they don’t have it on a website doesn’t mean they don’t have any, as I’ve gotten so busy that I haven’t had time to update my own sites. But if they are reluctant to give you any past experience, go with someone else.
Get an estimate
If you feel this person can do your project, try getting an estimate. From experience, I know it is hard to give estimates. However, I can generally tell if a project is going to take a while or be quick. I’ll also tell you if it just won’t work, or if I don’t think the idea is a good one, or if I think the project is over my abilities (or at least what parts are). Find out how much they charge per hour, if there is a minimum amount per project, and see if they can give you an estimate in hours.
Just remember, it is an estimate and it can be much quicker or much longer than expected. I try to overestimate my projects to have a happy client. Also remember, if you want something changed or added after the project is complete – those changes could require big changes in the backend. If you have to, make any changes as early as possible – it’ll save you money!
Well I’ve written alot, and I’m running out of writing juice. But of course if you’d like to hire me, you can find more information about me at Linden Software. I’ve also written alot of information at CLiX Network. Many clients have read what I wrote there, and hired me because they could see first hand what I know. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The one where we rose to the occasion of IPL 2019
2018 was a successful campaign for SunRisers Hyderabad. For 2019? They wanted to maintain a "we'll rise from where we left off last season" message. And so we delivered! We reached peak sports marketing with a fresh new take on their social media creatives and the overall fan engagement strategy.
2 - 2.5 months
Digital, Online &
Offline, Creative &
What we did
Right from every social media creative to stadium branding to behind the scenes with the team, we shadowed SRH throughout the season until they were annoyed with us. But you know what they say, you gotta do what you gotta do for that content! Fans loved our work, engaged with us and fell in love with the team all over.
Let's get innovative
From 3D posts on Instagram to WhatsApp stickers, the SRH social media activity was extremely special. We did ALL of that within tight deadlines too! See? The headline is more than just a pun.
Fan engagement is one of the most important aspects of sports marketing. And our focus on the #OrangeArmy yielded us some great results!s
Every tweet to us, every DM on Instagram and share on Facebook filled us with gratitude. And it made our monthly reports look great too. But that was secondary. Promise! Needless to say, our online reputation management machinery was flowing smooth as silk.
What we Achieved?
From gaining 400K organic followers on Instagram to 36.6 million video views across platforms, it was a great season for all the stat nerds! We leveraged on trends, made 73.1 million impressions and made virality as normal as a David Warner century! A little bit of strategy and a whole lot of social media optimization goes a long way in creating a successful campaign.

Tinker completes construction for the Air Force’s largest ESPC project Published Oct. 2, 2020 By Sarah McNair AFIMSC Public Affairs TYNDALL AIR FORCE BASE, Florida – The Air Force completed construction for a $243 million energy project at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, in September. The Energy Savings Performance Contract project will improve energy efficiency and resiliency for the base, said Les Martin, acting director for the Air Force Civil Engineer Center’s Energy Directorate. The largest ESPC project for the Air Force to date, Martin said the scope of Tinker’s project helped the Department of Defense meet critical goals. “The Tinker project was credited with helping the Department of Defense and the Federal Energy Management Program exceed the goals set forth for them in the President’s Performance Contracting Challenge,” he said. The collaborative effort between Tinker’s 72nd Civil Engineer Squadron and 76th Maintenance Support Group at the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex, AFCEC Energy and Operations Directorates, and the Defense Logistics Agency – Energy facilitated the contract award to Honeywell, the energy service company, in December 2016 for the upgrade and modernization of 57 buildings, totaling more than 10 million square feet by incorporating 25 Energy Conservation Measure upgrades. This project enabled OC-ALC at Tinker to improve the infrastructure on industrial processes and become the first federal government organization certified with ISO-50001. This certification provides sustained program structure and imposes a rigorous international energy management standard centered around continual improvement, enhancing energy, controlling costs, operations and maintenance savings and safety. “This project implemented significant upgrades increasing reliability to OC-ALC's facilities and contributing to Tinker no longer being the Air Force’s largest energy consumer,” said Joseph Cecrle, OC-ALC's energy manager. “The ISO 50001 Energy Management System certification also satisfies the Air Force Sustainment Center’s Art of the Possible for continuous energy improvements.” OC-ALC is one of the largest units in Air Force Materiel Command. The complex is responsible for providing aircraft maintenance, modifications, overhaul and repair including battle damage repair for a wide variety of commodities for the Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps and foreign military sales. The scope of this large-scale ESPC will increase reliability and resiliency with emphasis on its industrial infrastructure process improvements to increase productivity and operational efficiency. Energy-related and process improvements included: • two new 2,000-ton chillers to increase the reliability of the cooling system • more efficient LED lighting with wireless controls • automated tank covers and software to schedule production equipment • smart meters to monitor and track building energy consumption more effectively • new infrared heating at openings • an Energy Management Control System • demand control ventilation • new compressed air retrofits • upgrades to painting and thermal spray booths to increase reliability and safety through enhanced controls and sensors • updated wastewater treatment systems to provide equipment control and alarm monitoring • replaced aging high-pressure gas distribution systems to improve worker protection • decentralized steam heating plant with a distributed heat system to reduce energy use “With the dedication and commitment of Tinker civil engineers and OC-ALC personnel, DLA-E and Honeywell, this construction effort successfully accomplished the first Air Force project to address improvements in energy-intensive, process-related areas and it will pay for itself within the 22-year term,” said Tom Laney, project manager for AFCEC’s Energy Directorate. These improvements will generate a savings of 641 million British thermal units per year and more than 38 million gallons of water and wastewater. Based on the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s average annual household electricity consumption for 2015, that's enough energy to power 17 homes for a year and enough water to fill 57 Olympic-sized swimming pools. Tinker, previously the Air Force’s largest single-site energy consumer, will see a 35-percent reduction in energy usage and 9 percent in decreased water usage with $20.5 million in avoided utility and operation and maintenance expenditures. “The ESPC program gives the Air Force an important tool to make smart energy decisions, optimize energy using 21st century technologies and support mission assurance through energy assurance,” said Dan Soto, director of AFCEC’s Energy Directorate. Air Force readiness requires resilient energy to meet critical mission needs and support the enterprise. To date, AFCEC’s Energy Directorate has collaborated with contracting groups to develop and award $1.4 billion in energy savings contracts. Installations interested in pursuing energy projects can contact AFCEC through the Reach-back Center at (888) 232-3721 or email@example.com. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

MIAMI (AP) — Police in South Florida are trying to find New York Giants cornerback DeAndre Baker and Seattle Seahawks cornerback Quinton Dunbar after multiple witnesses accused them of an armed robbery at a party, authorities said Thursday.
Miramar police issued arrest warrants for both men Thursday on four counts each of armed robbery with a firearm. Baker faces an additional four counts of aggravated assault with a firearm. The residential community is located between Fort Lauderdale and Miami.
Baker, 22, and Dunbar, 27, were attending a cookout at a Miramar home Wednesday night when a fight broke out, and Baker pulled out a handgun, the warrant said. Baker, Dunbar and two other men began robbing other people at the party of thousands of dollars in cash, watches and other valuables, witnesses told investigators.
Police said the four men then fled the home in three vehicles: a Mercedes Benz, a Lamborghini and a BMW. Witnesses said the vehicles were parked in a way that would make it easy to leave quickly, leading detectives to believe the robbery was planned. No injuries were reported.
Baker and Dunbar are both from Miami.
Baker was one of three first-round draft picks the Giants had last season. He was the 30th pick overall out of Georgia. He played in all 16 games, starting 15. He had 61 tackles and no interceptions. He was the last of the three New York picks in that first round.
“We are aware of the situation. We have been in contact with DeAndre,” the Giants said in a statement. “We have no further comment at this time.”
Dunbar signed with the Washington Redskins as an undrafted free agent out of Florida in 2015 and was traded to the Seahawks in March. He started 11 games last season, making 37 tackles and four interceptions.
“We are aware of the situation involving Quinton Dunbar and still gathering information,” the Seahawks said in a statement. “We will defer all further comment to league investigators and local authorities.”
Dunbar spent Thursday morning on a video conference with the Seattle media for the first time since being traded from Washington to the Seahawks in March.
“You just want to feel wanted at the end of the day. ... I just hope to repay them with the way I carry myself as a person,” Dunbar said on the video conference. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Police Researcher: Officers Have Similar Biases Regardless Of Race
One common recommendation for reducing police brutality against people of color is to have police departments mirror a given area's racial makeup.
President Obama's Task Force on 21st Century Policing recommended that law enforcement "reflect the demographics of the community"; the Justice Department and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission said diversity on police forces can help build trust with communities.
Rashawn Ray, a fellow at the Brookings Institution and a sociology professor at the University of Maryland, studies race and policing. He says that diversity helps but that "officers, regardless of their race or gender, have similar implicit biases, particularly about Black people." Ray says it's not enough to have Black cops in a Black neighborhood if they don't know the area.
Ray and his University of Maryland colleagues have amassed policing data through tests and interviews with hundreds of officers. He talked with Morning Edition's Noel King about this research. Here are excerpts of that interview:
What kind of biases do police officers — implicit, explicit — say that they have?
The first big thing is that when officers take the implicit association test, they exhibit bias against Black people. They are more likely to make an association between Black people with weapons than they are with white people with weapons. We also know that officers speak less respectfully to Black people during traffic stops as well as during other sorts of settings. And they are particularly less likely to respect Black women in these encounters, even if they're more likely to slightly use more force on Black men relative to other people.
I was talking to a former police officer whose job is now to recruit more Black and brown police officers into [the Minneapolis] force. It sounds like what you're saying is if she is recruiting Black and brown officers from Phoenix or from Houston and bringing them over to Minneapolis, that is not likely to solve the problem.
That's exactly right. So the optics look good, but we can't make the assumption that simply because a person is Black that they're going to know about the neighborhood. Part of the fundamental problem when it comes to policing that I've noticed is that when police officers interact with a white person, there is a pause, a slight pause, a slight benefit of the doubt. The reason why that exists is because subconsciously, implicitly, when they interact with that person, they see their neighbor, a parent at their kids' school, and when they interact with a Black person, they are less likely to have what we call in sociology those "social scripts" that allow them to view people in those multitude of ways.
And if we're going to change this, one big recommendation I have: Police officers need housing assistance that mandates that they live in the metropolitan area where they are policing. Because community policing isn't about getting out, playing basketball with a kid in uniform. Community policing oftentimes is what you do when you're not on duty. The way that you're investing in a neighborhood.

- We have updated our categorisation of sectors to reflect carbon emissions normalised by revenue. We now have three categories – primary impact (e.g. airlines, integrated oil and gas, paper), secondary impact (e.g. food products, hotels, transportation services) and tertiary impact (e.g. apparel retailers, medical supplies, software). While we acknowledge that there may be companies in the lower impact sectors that have higher carbon emissions (and vice versa in the higher impact sectors), this provides an effective categorisation of companies and aligns carbon impact with FTSE Russell’s wider approach to sectoral classification (ICB).
- We have added seven new indicators that speak directly to the changes proposed by the TCFD. These are:
- The recognition of climate change as a relevant risk and/or opportunity to the business, and the timeframe over which this is assessed.
- How climate-related risks and opportunities are incorporated into strategy (mitigation, new products, R&D, etc.) and capital allocated (OPEX, CAPEX, M&A, debt).
- Whether the company has conducted climate scenario analysis and described the business impacts of one or more climate scenarios.
- Exploration and production intensity as measured in GHG emissions per barrel of oil equivalent (for exploration and production, and integrated oil and gas).
- Refining intensity as measured in GHG emissions per barrel of oil equivalent (for refineries and integrated oil and gas).
- Cement production GHG emissions intensity as measured in GHG emissions per tonne of cement/cementitious material (for cement).
- Scope 3 emissions (3 years) split by category type.
- We have extended the coverage of 3 indicators to companies in tertiary impact (or low impact) sectors. These are the indicators relating to whether operational GHG emissions are independently verified, whether the intensity of operational GHG emissions has reduced, and whether operational energy consumption data are independently verified.
- We have started to collect data on sector-specific emissions and performance for companies in the oil and gas, electric utility, cement, real estate, metals and mining, chemicals, steel, food producers, paper and forest products, agricultural products, beverages, agriculture and asset owner/asset manager sectors. For example, in the oil and gas sector, we collect information on oil and gas production by hydrocarbon (oil, gas, oil sands), reserve replacement ratios (RRR), production cost by hydrocarbon (oil, gas, oil sands), flaring emissions (CO2e) and methane emissions (CH4).
These enhancements will allow us to more accurately assess the quality of companies’ climate change disclosures and performance, the impact of climate change on companies’ strategy, and the quality of the scenario analysis being conducted by companies. We have started to apply these indicators across the full universe of over 4,000 companies covered by our ESG research, and expect to have completed a full cycle of this research (i.e. assessed all companies using these new indicators) by June 2018.
Prepared by: Charles Fruitiere (ESG Analyst, FTSE Russell) and Dr Rory Sullivan (Head of ESG Standards, FTSE Russell and Expert Advisor, Transition Pathway Initiative).
We have worked closely with FTSE Russell as it has gone through the process of revising its climate change indicators. The revisions will enable us to further align our Level 0 to 4 management quality framework with the TCFD’s recommendations and also enable us to conduct more sophisticated and robust analysis on some of our existing indicators.
FTSE Russell has presented these changes to the TPI’s Technical Advisory Group and we are now reviewing and revising the TPI’s indicators. Without pre-empting this work, our ambition is:
- To have clear alignment between the TPI and the TCFD’s recommendations.
- To introduce sector-specific indicators to complement the existing Management Quality indicators.
- To introduce a new Level 5 (or extended Level 4) that fully assesses companies’ ability to strategically manage the transition to a low-carbon economy. We see this as providing us with an explicit link between our Management Quality indicators and our Carbon Performance assessments.
We have also started to develop proposals on how we might assess the quality of companies’ scenario analysis, in conjunction with FTSE Russell, TPI supporters and other stakeholders. We will offer suggestions on general, high-level indicators that may be adopted by FTSE Russell (e.g. does the company publish a scenario analysis? Does it document its assumptions? Does it identify its central scenario?), as well as on a more detailed framework that may be used to analyse individual scenario analyses.

A new deal: Greece signs up to a painful, humiliating agreement with Europe
UK Only Article:
A new deal
Agreeing to long-resisted reforms is just the start for Greece
AT ONE point during marathon euro-zone talks in Brussels on the evening of July 12th, Alexis Tsipras was a few minutes late returning from a break. A rumour took flight: the Greek prime minister, facing brutal demands from his 18 fellow euro-zone leaders in exchange for an agreement to begin talks on a new bail-out, had fled the building. It turned out that he was in the bathroom.
That it seemed plausible for Mr Tsipras to have pulled a personal Grexit sheds light on the extraordinary pressure the prime minister faced during the all-night talks. At 6am, locked in discussions over a controversial privatisation fund with Angela Merkel, Germany’s chancellor, and François Hollande, the French president, Mr Tsipras did indeed come close to walking out. But spurred by pressure from Donald Tusk, the chair of the summit, the three eventually managed to forge a deal that could form the basis of a …<div class="og_rss_groups"></div>

Despite its enhanced security features, cloud computing isn’t 100% safe from data breaches. A small- or medium-sized business still needs to be proactive in making sure their data is secure in the cloud. The following tips will help tighten cloud data security.
Know your cloud apps:
Get a comprehensive view of the specific threats that business apps pose. Ask questions like: Which ones render you more or less prone to a breach? Does an app encrypt data stored on the service? Does it separate your data from that of others to limit exposure when another tenant has a breach?
Migrate users to high-quality apps:
Cloud-switching costs are low, which means that you can always switch to another application that best suits your needs. Take the time to consult with your vendor before switching to another app to make sure the new app is secure and compatible with your systems. Now more than ever, you have choices.
Find out where your data is going:
Take a look at your data in the cloud. Review uploads, downloads, and data at rest in apps to determine whether you have potential personally identifiable information (PII), or whether you simply have unencrypted confidential data. If you do have PII stored in the cloud, you need to make sure there are additional layers of security measures in place such as encryption. This is to avoid violating compliance regulations and paying hefty fines.
Look at user activities:
It’s important to understand not only what apps you use but also how these apps use your data. Determine what apps employees are using to share content and whether such apps have a sharing functionality. Knowing who’s sharing what and with whom will help you understand what policies to best employ.
Mitigate risk through granular policy:
Start with your business-critical apps and enforce policies that matter to your organization in the context of a breach. For example, block the upload of information covered by certain privacy acts, block the download of PII from HR apps, or temporarily block access to vulnerable apps.
The key to preventing a data security breach in the cloud lies in careful attention to your cloud applications and user activity. Analyzing your apps and looking into user activities might be time-consuming, but minimizing cloud and data security breaches makes this task worthwhile. Looking to learn more about today’s security? Contact us and let us manage and minimize your risks. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
