The financial sector is on the move, with the Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSEARCA:XLF) rising 0.7% to test the upper end of a long consolidation pattern going all the way back to December. It’s not a great day for bank stocks, but it’s a good one … and it could portend better things ahead.
The current move represents a nearly 10% gain from the recent lows set in May. But really, bank stocks have been mired in indecision over the past eight months over everything from the health of the U.S. economy, loan activity, the shape of the yield curve, and the success of investment banking activities in this environment.
The reporting of largely solid second-quarter results from the key players in the sector didn’t really move the needle. But now, with investors shying away from big-tech stocks on valuation and sentiment concerns, the big banks could be ready for a lift here. That’s on account of their large market capitalization weighting in the major indices — which are continuing their relentless march higher to incremental new records.
Here are three bank stocks to watch.
Bank Stocks With Breakout Potential: Bank of America (BAC)
Bank of America Corp (NYSE:BAC) reported earnings on July 18, including 46 cents per share in profits that beat expectations by a pair of pennies, and a 7.1% rise in revenues year-over-year.
BAC shares are rising off of short-term uptrend support near the $24-a-share level today, maintaining a positive stance above both the 50-day and 200-day moving averages. The March high lies just above at $25.50, which is a 4% move from here.
A breakout could return shares to levels not seen since the financial crisis meltdown of 2008. That’s boosting the Aug $25 BAC calls recommended to Edge Pro subscribers.
The company will next report results on Oct. 13 before the bell.
Bank Stocks With Breakout Potential: JPMorgan Chase (JPM)
JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) shares also are rising to test their prior highs from early July — also representing approximate resistance from its early March high as well — as the bulls try to put a definitive end to the eight-month-long holding pattern.
The company, like a handful of other bank stocks, benefited from some positive coverage in Barron’srecently on expected tailwinds from a deregulation push.
When JPMorgan last reported on July 14, earnings of $1.82 beat estimates by 23 cents on a 4.6% rise in revenues. Average core loans increased 8% from the year prior while net interest income jumped 8% on the impact from rising rates and loan growth.
JPM will next report results on Oct. 12 before the opening bell.
Bank Stocks With Breakout Potential: Citigroup (C)
Citigroup Inc (NYSE:C) shares are breaking higher to levels not seen since 2008 and ending a five-year stasis between $50 and $60. The late 2008 consolidation range near $80 is a likely upside target, which would be worth a 15% gain from here.
It’s probably just coincidental that the company felt confidence enough to hold an investor day presentation on July 25 for the first time since 2008, with management targeting a 15% to 20% earnings growth rate by 2020.
Citigroup will next report results on Oct. 12 before the bell. Analysts are looking for earnings of $1.31 per share on revenues of $17.75 billion. When the company last reported on July 14, earnings of $1.28 beat estimates by seven cents on 2% rise in revenues.

This market is still controlled by realtors, who ring up the register again and again with outrageous commissions based on an archaic law that allows them to monopolize the market for home listings.
But you should know that realtors are only half the battle…
While realtors may be exorbitant in their commission structure, there are worse alternatives out there that are pitching themselves as bargains.
There are a slew of companies that offer the allure of pure convenience and a “great” price – but it never really works that way.
Think about your neighborhood 7-Eleven. It offers great convenience, but at what price? I have never found that 7-Eleven is less expensive than a full-blown grocery store. Have you?
If it’s convenience you want, the price is always going to be higher.
It’s no different in the real estate market. Right now, two companies (Opendoor and Offerpad) are grabbing all the headlines. They’re called “iBuyers.” (Yes, we’re in the “i” generation for everything.)
They offer a quick solution: Give them your address, and they’ll make you an offer for your home. Accept, and the check is on the way. Closing is a breeze. Wow! What a great concept?!
Yes, they’ll charge you a commission as well, but you don’t have to list your home or clean it up to show to people. Just sign on the dotted line, and you’re dancing to the bank, check in hand.
Well, that’s how the commercials make it sound…
But the fact is, you may pay MORE than you would to a realtor. (Surprise, surprise!)
It turns out that these companies are preying on the same soft spot that causes us to get our groceries delivered and our outfits chosen and delivered by clothing experts every week.
The “convenience” of never having to set foot outside our home again, for anything from a generator to a meal from a five-star restaurant, comes at a steep price. Look at the graphic below to get an idea of the price of convenience.
As you can see, both Offerpad and Opendoor ended up costing well more than these sellers would have lost to any of the options I mentioned a couple of weeks ago.
What these companies’ ads neglect to mention is that the offers they make are contingent on a home inspection that could knock thousands off the proposed price.
You can bet your bottom dollar that they will find every little thing to nickel-and-dime your final price down. At least, that is what the reviews from people who have had experience with these iBuyers have shown.
Buyer beware when it comes to using these too-good-to-be-true convenience outfits. Sure, take a shot and let them make an offer. You never know, and you’re not obligated to sell until you sign on the bottom line and accept their offer.
But you must be prepared to walk – or run – away if the need arises. These companies tend to know little about the subtle nuances or characteristics of the markets they serve. It’s all a numbers game, and they can promise big at the outset.
Selling a home is stressful enough that you shouldn’t have to deal with a roller coaster of disappointments just for the sake of convenience. Of course, that applies to your realtor as well, should you choose that route.
It’s YOUR money… make them ALL earn it!

A tale of a brave younger brother rescuing his sibling from a python in a mountain valley.
In the village of Hutian, there was a family surnamed Hu. Two brothers were cutting firewood and entered a deep mountain valley. They encountered a large python. The older brother was in front and got bitten by the python. At first, the younger brother was scared and wanted to run away, but when he saw his older brother being bitten by the python, he angrily pulled out the firewood axe and struck the python’s head. Although the giant python was injured in the head, it continued to swallow. Seeing that his older brother’s head had been swallowed by the python, fortunately, his shoulders got stuck at the python’s mouth and couldn’t go down further. The younger brother was extremely anxious but had no other option. He grabbed his brother’s feet with both hands and struggled with the python, miraculously pulling his brother out. The python, in pain, fled. When they looked at the older brother, they saw that his ears and nose had already melted away, and he was barely alive, close to death. The younger brother carried his older brother and walked back home, resting more than a dozen times along the way, before finally returning home. After receiving medical treatment and rest, the older brother took almost half a year to fully recover. To this day, his face is scarred, and he has only holes left where his nose and ears used to be.
Ah! Among the rural farmers in the mountains, there is indeed such a younger brother who respects his elder brother so much! Some people say, “The python did not swallow the older brother because it was moved by the younger brother’s moral integrity and righteousness.” Is it really so!

Background: The prevalence of obesity, inactivity and related morbidity and mortality is higher amongst people with intellectual disabilities than in the population in general, an issue of global concern. This research examined the perspectives of people with intellectual disabilities and their carers, on exercise and activity. Materials and Methods: Qualitative data were collected via interviews and a focus group with people with intellectual disabilities and their paid and family carers, recruited via state-funded community-based day centres in Scotland. Results: Three barriers hindered service users with intellectual disabilities from regular involvement in physical activity: (i) acceptance of an inactive lifestyle by carers; (ii) restrictions on activity due to paid carer preferences and resource limitations; (iii) communication issues between family carers and paid carers. Barriers were based on assumptions made by paid and family carers, so there is potential to increase activity by changing attitudes, improving communication and reconceptualising activity as integral to everyday living, rather than as additional exercise requiring special resources. Conclusions: Carers should be supported to promote physical activity in a variety of ways to enhance the motivation of service users, to encourage them to engage with physical activity as an integral part of a healthy lifestyle and to transfer this to their lives beyond day care.

The Capitol Theatre—This 1,800-seat concert venue on the National Register of Historic Places has had previous incarnations as a catering hall and vaudeville and cinema theater. Acts ranging from the Stones and the Grateful Dead to the Spin Doctors and Courtney Love have performed here. The grand-opening performance in 1926 included “The Star Spangled Banner” by a 10-piece orchestra and a showing of The Sea Wolf (based on the Jack London novel). A double feature at the time cost a nickel.
El Tio—Jay and Patty Barajas have been serving genuine Mexican fare (try the chimichangas and taco trio) since 1991.
Hubba—Formerly know as Pat’s Hubba Hubba, Hubba is a greasy-spoon institution where seating consists of 13 counter stools, dollar bills stand in for wallpaper, and menu items are scribbled on paper plates in marker. Whatever you order, get chili on it.
Berger True Value Hardware—Skip the nearby Home Depot and opt instead for this independently owned hardware store for everything from key-cutting to a new grill.
Pollo A La Brasa – Misti Restaurant—The name refers to blackened or rotisserie chicken, so you know the signature dish to order at this Peruvian restaurant.
Spanish-American War Memorial—Okay, so it’s no World War II or Civil War (it lasted but 4 months), but the 1898 Spanish-American War did give the US two of its five unincorporated territories: Guam and Puerto Rico. The names of 22 Port Chester men who died serving in the conflict are inscribed here.
La Placita Supermarket—Aisles of Latin American foods—Mexican, Colombian, Brazilan—can be found here.
bartaco—California-beach-bar-inspired décor; Mexican street fare; a curated tequila list; and a stylish patio facing the Byram River make this a hotspot for people-watching and hook-ups.
Landmark Condominium (former Life Savers factory)—Remember the giant Life Savers replicas that once adorned the lawn at this former factory from 1920 to 1984? Production of Life Savers now happens in Montreal, Canada.
The Kneaded Bread—If you find better artisan loaves in the county (must-tries are the provolone bread and seasonal holiday fruit bread), please inform us.
Tarry Lodge—Celeb chef/The Chew co-host Mario Batali and restaurateur/MasterChef judge Joe Bastianich are behind this bustling and fashionable Italian restaurant with rooftop seating.

Westchester NY Deck Repair & Refurbishment
We all love our decks on a sunny day, but it’s when it rains that your deck tells you most about its health. When it rains, water should bead up and run off your railings and floorboards. If water sits or pools on your deck or other wooden structures, that water damages the wood and reduces the lifespan and health of the structure.
During our pre-clean inspection, many of the decks we work on are found to need little repairs here and there, and our deck repair team gets to work bringing decks up to peak functional order before we clean or seal them.
Wood Deck Repair
Wooden decks, in particular, are frequently plagued by small breakdowns that are best when repaired quickly and professionally. For example, when a single board is warped or cracked the best thing to do is replace it. Damaged wood can throw off the balance and health of the wood around it.
Handrails, steps and boards all play a critical role in the health of your deck as well as its look and feel, our team has the professional know-how to repair your deck and seamlessly integrate repairs into your structure so it looks good as new once we are done.
Deck refinishing is not a fancy word for a temporary deck repair. Deck refinishing is an investment in your existing deck that when done thoroughly and professionally will extend the lifespan of the wooden structure. We can help refinish decks, pool decks, patio coverings, front porches and other wooden structures that need some love and rehab to tackle the next five to ten years of use and look good doing it.
The hands of time, the battering force of the weather and simple wear and tear are constantly working on wooden structures and it is no surprise that just like your car your deck or wood structure will have a need for occasional inspection and tune-up, we call this process deck refinishing.
In recent years deck refinishing has grown in popularity and for good reason. The before and after impression is significant.

Underground cities can be found all across the world, but one particular underground city has everything in it.
Located in present-day Turkey, the historical Cappadocia region has become a popular tourism destination for its unusual rock formations, unique historical relics, and cultural importance.
Cappadocia’s landscape is considerably one of the best things created by man and by nature, but underneath all that greatness is something more than just dirt, land, or rock. One may not expect that underneath Cappadocia lies a one-of-a-kind network of underground cities.
Derinkuyu is the most famous of them all because of its size and depth – it extends 60 meters into the ground and could accommodate 20,000 inhabitants. This ancient city dates back to the 7th century BC.
The early inhabitants of the underground city built it to save themselves from invasions and war. Ingenuity presented them with an opportunity to build a livable area where they could go unnoticed and where they could protect their possessions.
This city consists of 600 doors that lead to amazing and massive rooms, chambers, and facilities. The city could be closed entirely from the inside with large stone doors, and even each floor could be closed off separately. It was also methodically designed like a maze so to make navigating the city difficult for unfamiliar intruders.
Derinkuyu is open for visits but only allows tourists to see around 10-15% of the entire underground city.

Experts are raising the alarm – AI will replace lawyers when it comes to estate planning. With the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), some people may be tempted to use AI tools to draft their estate plans. However, there are several reasons why AI should not be used for this purpose.
Estate planning is essentially about control. How will your assets and possessions be distributed after your death? Who will manage your care and assets, in the event you become incapacitated and unable to make financial or medical decisions? Who will answer your family’s questions after your death? Estate planning is complex and time-consuming for a reason – you are trying to anticipate the probable events that may affect you and your loved ones.
First, estate planning is a highly personal and often emotional process that requires careful consideration of your unique circumstances and goals. While AI tools may be able to generate documents quickly and efficiently, they are, by definition, impersonal and generic. While AI can extrapolate on what has happened in the past, it cannot draft documents in anticipation of the future. To get personalized attention and expertise requires an estate planning attorney.
Second, estate planning involves legal and financial considerations that require specialized knowledge and expertise. While AI tools may be able to provide basic information and guidance, they cannot replace the experience and expertise of a human attorney.
Third, estate planning involves sensitive and confidential information that should be kept private and secure. While AI tools may claim to be secure, there is always a risk of data breaches and cyber-attacks that could compromise your personal information or alter your documents.
Fourth, estate planning involves complex tax, legal and financial concepts that require careful analysis and interpretation. While AI tools may be able to analyze data and provide recommendations, they cannot provide the same level of critical thinking and analysis that an estate planning attorney can.
Finally, estate planning involves ethical and moral considerations that require careful consideration and reflection. While AI tools may be able to provide objective data and analysis, AI cannot provide the same level of moral and ethical guidance that a human attorney can. Furthermore, by working with an estate planning attorney, you have the peace of mind that your wishes will be carried out and your loved ones will be taken care of as you intended.

We Share the Same Passion for What We Do
All of our products are continuously developed for horticulturists, growers, and gardeners by horticulturists, growers, and gardeners. We make sure to offer something to every community out there that was designed and created by people who already harbor a personal passion for what we do. This means that not only do we have our consumer’s needs in mind, but we have an intimate understanding ourselves of what works and what doesn’t in the world of growing. Everything that we have built has come from the understanding that we want to provide high quality products we would want to use ourselves.
It is because of this that we arduously commit to testing everything we create. Our growers test and prove that everything we put out on the market are tweaked to perfection. We are committed to ensuring that nothing which would not meet our own standards in growing is released.
Our Research Takes the Time to Perfect
This reason alone is why we do not settle for knowing that our product has been working for thousands of years already—our goal is to perfect what has already been working for generations into something that will continue to benefit growers all over the globe, even more.
We understand that nature has already provided all of the organic goods necessary to harvest the best yield and growth. Our goal and belief is to not manipulate this with artificial additions, but to find which combination of nature’s nutrients complement each other the best. It is our belief that this ultimately provides the public with an organic solution of nutrients and amendments which will potentially revolutionize each end-of-year’s yield.
If it not something we would personally use, it simply does not go out to the public. We take our time testing each, individual product until we feel it is something we can be proud to put on the market.

Owosso & Durand Area Phone Scam
There seems to be a lot of news lately about phone scams in the area and here's another one to add to the list. The Shiawassee County Sheriff's Office alerted residents over the weekend that there was a phone scam that was being reported in the Owosso and Durand areas where several grandparents reported that they had received a phone call from a young man calling from a blocked number. The caller claimed to be their grandson and reportedly said that he was in jail and needed some bond money immediately in order to be released. Like a lot of the other phone scams, the caller then requests that you purchase gift cards and scratch off the code on the back and send him a picture of the card's numbers.
The Shiawassee County Sheriff's Office is reminding residents that this is a scam and if you or anyone you know receives a call similar to this DO NOT give out any information or buy any gift cards. You can also call the jail at 989-743-2240 if you have any questions or concerns.
Here's more from the Shiawassee County Sheriff's Office about the phone scam:

He has won 46/48 of the binding arbitrations and jury trials he first chaired. A number of his appeals are published. The discrimination attorneys employed by the Employment Lawyers Group have worked at the firm well in excess of five years, have also tried employment cases, and have all been extensively trained on employment discrimination by Karl Gerber.

If you believe your employment decision may have been motivated by discriminatory animus, Call 1-877-525-0700 for an experienced discrimination attorney.
Helpful Evidence Our Discrimination Attorneys Use to Prove Employment Discrimination
Employment discrimination is often subtle. The employer never comes out and tells the employee they are being fired due to a protected characteristic such as age, or sexual orientation. Helpful facts used to prove employment discrimination include:
Pinedo v. Premium Tobacco, 85 Cal.App.4th 774, 102 Cal.Rptr.2d 435 (2000) was an ancestry discrimination case involving an American Indian. Important employee rights in employment arbitration were decided for the employee in this appeal.
Boonyarit v. Payless Shoesource, Inc., 145 Cal.App.4th 1188 (2006) involved a fight against allowing a large corporation trying to take advantage of a plaintiff. This appeal shows how Firm Founder, Karl Gerber, will not let an injustice exist no matter how small.
Young v. Exon, 167 Cal.App.4th 1467 (2008) stands for the proposition winning defendants in employment discrimination cases under FEHA must actually have incurred attorney fees for the court to consider the issue of reversed attorney fees.
Sparks v. Vista del Mar Child and Family Services, 207 Cal.App.4th 1511 (2012) stands for the proposition that employees cannot be forced to arbitrate employment disputes if they did not knowingly agree to do so in writing, with their signature.
Alamo v. Practice Management, 219 Cal.App.4th 466 (2013) involved the largest issue to be decided in employment discrimination in at some decades which involves the standard for winning an employment discrimination case. This case was a pregnancy discrimination case that was won by Karl Gerber, but which the employer appealed claiming one word in a jury instruction was wrong.
Vasquez v. Franklin Management, 212 Cal.App.4th 819 (2013) involves the important rights of low wage employees not to have to pay employment expenses without reimbursement.
Our discrimination attorneys have handled hundreds of employment discrimination cases.

Now that our sites are locked and loaded on Australian servers and with WP Rocket good to go, which host is burning rubber this week in London?
Speed Test – Week 187 Method
- Compare 6 WordPress Hosts
- Use 6 Live Sites, each with a Different Host but with Identical Content (you can check them out here)
- Use GTmetrix Speed Test
- Host Server Location: Australia
- Location of Test: London, UK
- Caching Plugins Installed: WP Rocket
- Frequency of Testing: Every Hour for 7 Days
- Number of Weekly Tests = 1 x24 x7 x6 = 1,008 (xHours xDays xSites)
- Speed Testing is checking how long it takes for a website to fully load using a desktop internet browser
Which WordPress Host will conquer the Speed Test this week?
Identical Live Sites
SiteGround Weekly Speed Results
Lightning Base Weekly Speed Results
flywheel Weekly Speed Results
kinsta Weekly Speed Results
pressidium Weekly Speed Results
wp engine Weekly Speed Results
SPeed Test – Week 187 Summary Table
The fastest host this week in London is Flywheel with a truly remarkable time of 0.60s.
With our 4 new premium hosts on board in 2019, Kinsta dominated early with fastest load time across 4 of the first 5 weeks of testing. Then Flywheel took over, claiming the fastest host honors in 4 of the next 5 weeks.
When we changed the host’s server location from USA to Canada, Flywheel & Kinsta continued to perform well. Kinsta recorded the fastest average speed across 5 weeks, while Flywheel was fastest 3 times.
With the server location set in the UK, Kinsta once again was the most impressive, recording the fastest load time 5 out of the 10 weeks.
And the 10 weeks of testing from Indian servers resulted in Flywheel & Pressidium performing the best, with Flywheel being the fastest across 5 weeks and Pressidium 3 weeks.
This week marks the 7th that we’re testing from Australia, and the 2nd with caching support from WP Rocket. Across the first 4 weeks, it was Pressidium that found itself on top of the speed rankings. The last 2 weeks has resulted in Kinsta taking the honors. Now its Flywheel turn to smash all hosts with an amazing average load time.
The most disappointing result came from Lightning Base and WP Engine, who were significantly slower than all other hosts. The results are even more concerning for WP Engine, as they are a premium host who have been beaten out by our 2 budget hosts (SiteGround & Lightning Base).
For next week’s test, I will change up the test location London to Mumbai. I am most interested to see if WP Engine can speed things up in India to justify their premium price tag?
And this Week’s Winner is…
With 40 weeks of testing on USA, UK, Canadian & Indian servers now complete, click below to find out which host proved to be the fastest so far in 2019.

Distance 39.11 km | Ascent 1,614 m | Descent -1,614 m | Highest point: 1,781 m
A physical lap with many pushing sections today made particularly challenging by the great heat that has been afflicting us for too long now.
We start from the Queens, just below Abetone, and immediately reach Lake Nero, the first of the 6 that we will visit today. We pedal without any particular difficulty to the Shepherds’ Hut where we get fresh water. From here on to the refuge on the lake, there are very few stretches where it is possible to pedal both for the slopes and for the very loose surface. After a coffee and a piece of cake, we resume our journey with our shoulders to reach the ridge at the foot of the Denti della Vecchia. Finally we get back in the saddle and very quickly reach Lake Piatto.
We continue following the CAI 519, passing through Passo Annibale and arriving at Foce a Giovo. From here begins the most strenuous stretch to visit the third and fourth lakes, Torbido and Turchino.
In fact, most of the path is not cycleable, forcing us to push or load the bike on our shoulders. We continue to follow the 519, always alternating between pedalable sections, even challenging ones, and push sections until we reach Lago Santo. Before arriving at the latter, we make a short detour to Lake Baccio. After visiting the Holy Lake, we descend to the parking lot via a short path and continue on the asphalt until we take the CAI 531 which flows into the road to Rotari. After passing the small village, we arrive at the Flank where a dirt road branches off to the right and recovers the Via del Duca that will lead us to Casa Coppi. We continue to climb up to the Val di Luce car parks where we continue the route following the Sentiero del Tedesco.
At the end of it, instead of staying at high altitude, we try a path not marked on the maps on a steep slope which, however, makes us lose more elevation gain than we thought. Once we reach the Val di Luce state road below Faidello, we decide to return to the car on asphalt.

Chemistry A Level
Monmouth, United Kingdom
Request application deadline
EARLIEST START DATE
Request tuition fees
Request study format
Explore scholarship opportunities to help fund your studies
Chemistry is a challenging A level, which complements the other science subjects well. It can also be studied as a contrast to arts and humanities subjects. It is excellent preparation and a requirement for some university courses. Students go on to study a wide variety of disciplines, including engineering, medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, biochemistry, maths and economics.
The course followed is based on the AQA A level syllabus and consists of the three strands spread over two years. Two teachers teach each set to provide variety and to allow flexibility in practical and theoretical topics. In Year 12 Physical and Organic Chemistry will be taught in parallel, with the Inorganic Chemistry split after that. In the more advanced Year 13 courses, Inorganic and Organic Chemistry are taught in parallel and the Physical Chemistry is split.
The approach is to teach through practical work wherever possible; each exam paper will contain some practical techniques assessment, so development of practical awareness and confidence is an important part of all three strands.
You will be provided with in-house revision booklets and material in addition to standard text books and revision books. You will also have a book targeted at bridging the gap between GCSE and A level.
We have a highly qualified set of teachers who not only aim for exam success but also to produce confident, communicative, practical scientists. The considerable popularity of Chemistry at A level in the Monmouth Schools shows the success of this philosophy with our students.

Top tips on giving presentations
1 Present tense
Giving a presentation is close to the top of the list of stressful experiences. The prospect of being looked at and listened to by an audience disconcerts and worries most people. Even worse is the thought of standing in front of an audience that is clearly losing interest. That’s why visual aids are so popular – they take the attention away from you, providing support as well as an alternative focal point. And if they are relevant and informative they will help ensure success.
2 Picture power
Presentation software and projectors make it tempting to use too many visuals. Keep the number of words to a minimum, and make them big – this not only improves readability but ensures you can’t put too many words on a slide. Pictures can convey a message more effectively, with the words coming from you as the speaker. A cartoon can do wonders for capturing attention and engaging the audience. And video clips are great to help vary the pace and break up static text.
3 Take note
Too many words on screen and your audience will read and won’t listen. By the same token, don’t use slides as a script – at the most, treat them as a set of prompts. Keep things moving – slides lose value after approximately a minute so move on, or turn off. Use handouts for detailed information, but make sure you don’t give these out until after the presentation, otherwise your audience will be distracted, and will be reading while you are talking.

John and Paul Jr.
I’m pretty sure about John and Paul Jr. being from Paul’s first wife Anna Maria. I still haven’t found any information on Anna Maria except she is mentioned in Church records, “First Reformed Congregation at Lancaster, PA” as being Paul’s first wife.
Catherine and Margret
As for Catherine and Margret (or Margaret), it’s likely that they both are daughters of Paul and Anna Maria although many have them issue with Anna Margaretha (Mengle) Olewine. Olewine was Anna Margaretha Mengle’s married name. I believe both are issue with Paul and Anna Maria as Paul names them along with John and Paul Jr in his Will as his four oldest children. So maybe we can verify this with DNA.
Note: I’m thinking that Catherine and Catherina are two different people.
George #1 and Catherina
I believe that George is definitely Olewine per Lutheran Church records indicated via his death record . Trinity Lutheran Church records have Catherina as daughter of Archibald and Anna Margaretha Olewine.
Henry and Abraham
Henry and Abraham along with George are mentioned in Paul’s Will as his three youngest children. Church marriage records indicate that Paul and Anna Margaretha didn’t marry until 1800. Abraham was born in 1801 after Paul and Anna were legally married. So the question what happened to Anna Maria?
George #2 Ackerman
George is listed in Paul’s will as one of this three youngest children. George, Henry and Abraham.
Note: Since Paul separated his older children from the younger children in his Will, it is my belief that it was because they were from the two different marriages. Also Paul was 55 when he married Anna Margaretha and died 4 years later in 1804.

I currently using AcmeBlog theme for scientiarum.com. Since CSS allows user to do editing some style sheets, I want to know how to customize single post (also known as single.php), from left side into full-width post. I’ve been looking for the tutorial like hours, and didn’t find the correct one. And hopefully, it wouldn’t break any terms and conditions of using Acmethemes. Thanks in advance!
According to the query answer given to me, it’s kind of not helping because I knew it since the first time how to setup sidebar layout (left, right, or none of it). But, what I asked was how to make a single page of post (templates/single-content.php) becoming full-width page (without sidebar). Kind of reading a page of article in Microsoft Word. Pardon my bad English.

Market penetration becomes more achievable when businesses use extensive distribution strategies. This unique strategy is typically used when a company wants to take advantage of multiple delivery channels at the same time.
This is quite different from selective distribution where businesses would have to hand-pick retailers to sell their products.
Table of Contents
What is Extensive Distribution?
It’s a distribution strategy that aims to spread the word about a specific product or product line to multitudes of people.
Because of its complexity, this distribution strategy is able to target a number of delivery channels for maximum results. It’s often used when a company wishes to target as many potential customers as possible. However, this can be quite tedious if you don’t have a proper plan in mind.
Using multiple deliver channels ultimately increases product awareness, ensuring that a maximum number of people have information about the product. This is practically the opposite of selective distribution which targets specific channels.
Extensive Distribution Strategy
Selecting the right distribution strategy is a pivotal decision that could either steer your business to success or plunge it down. While an extensive distribution strategy initially sounds like a good idea, it requires a plethora of resources to execute, not making it a suitable choice for small businesses.
Your decision will ultimately impact how your product is received in the market. Here are a couple of factors you ought to keep in mind while selecting a distribution strategy:
- Type of product: Businesses that deal with everyday products are likely to do better with this kind of strategy as opposed to companies that sell designer wear.
- Budget: The budget is perhaps one of the most crucial factors one ought to consider while selecting the best strategy. An extensive distribution strategy may require a hefty budget to execute so be prepared to make a few cutbacks elsewhere.
- Middlemen: Depending on how things work out, you may have to employ a middleman to ensure quick and efficient distribution of goods and services. However, you’ll probably have to take a look at your budget first before making any decisions.
Ideally, this strategy is better suited for big companies that would have an easier time controlling multiple channels.
Examples of Extensive Distribution
Companies such as The Coca-Cola Company and PepsiCo are known for implementing extensive distribution strategies.
Because of their consistent efforts and enviable marketing tactics, both brands have a huge competitive edge over other nonalcoholic beverage brands.
Extensive Distribution Advantages and Disadvantages
Every distribution strategy offers its own list of advantages and disadvantages. Let us start by discussing the advantages of extensive distribution:
Companies are able to cover more ground. Since the whole point of this campaign is to boost product awareness, businesses are likely to benefit from optimum market coverage. If used wisely, this strategy can be used to build thousands of loyal customers.
Increased product awareness
Extensive distribution strategy increases product awareness and helps generate a buzz among potential customers.
Companies can easily maximize these results by increasing investments and putting in more efforts in marketing.
Disadvantages of Extensive Distribution
Some major disadvantages of extensive distribution may include:
Requires more effort
Instead of focusing on a few outlets, extensive distribution strategies requires businesses to dissipate their energies over countless channels.
This would also require access to a larger number of resource that small businesses may not have access to, especially in the beginning.
Difficult to control
Because of its extensive reach, companies may find it difficult to control market coverage. Additionally, businesses may also have a tough time gaining over sales if they don’t have the correct resources to execute this strategy.
Hopefully, this blog has taught you everything you need to know about extensive distribution and how it can benefit businesses. Happy learning!

A "swatch" is a term that's deeply woven into needlework terminology, but one that's not immediately obvious to the novice knitter. Whether you're struggling to master the art of knitting a swatch or simply not sure why you would need one in the first place, Ajanta Studios are here to give you some much needed reassurance on the matter.
What Is A Test Swatch?
A swatch is a small, rectangular-shaped piece of knitted fabric that you are going to test using your particular yarn of choice. It is used to test the gauge - which is the number of stitches per inch, so you can align the gauge of the pattern with the swatch gauge. The swatch is also great for you to work out if you're going to like the yarn you'll be using and to determine if it's suitable, whether it will bleed, and how it feels and handles.
Once you're done knitting your swatch and you're happy with everything, you won't need it again, but it is very useful to ensure that there aren't any unwelcome surprises when it comes to creating your larger knitting project. By using a swatch you can work out how an item of clothing or similar accessory is meant to be knitted, helping you create something that's true to size and fits correctly.
Some items, such as scarves and blankets, won't require the creation of a test swatch. This is because dimensional accuracy for these accessories isn't as important as it is for other types of garments. So making a swatch is something you can skip here and you'll be able to get started on your main project without one.
How To Create A Test Swatch
#1. Firstly refer to the pattern gauge and cast on the necessary stitches required. It is recommended that you apply two stitches to measure the right amount of stitches that are in the middle of edge stitches.
#2. Knit the number of rows outlined and add a few extra before you bind off. Count the number of stitches in 4 inches and look over a few places to get an idea of an average. This is the row gauge, and although it's not crucial, ensure that you have roughly the same number of stitches and rows in 4 inches as written in the pattern instructions.
#3. Wait, what if I have too many stitches!? Don't worry, simply try again with a bigger needle if you have too many and a smaller needle if you have too few. More complicated projects may require a few swatches to get it right, but you'll be thankful once you have a perfect finished and fitted project.
#4. If the fit really matters for your project, you may want to block your swatch before you measure as blocking can significantly influence the knitted fabric. This is a great thing to do if you're making a fitted jumper or similar garment where you want to achieve that perfect fit.

Find Your Path to Retirement Confidence
Alerus Managed Account Program
You may have a vision of your retirement — but how will you get there? The Alerus Managed Account Program (MAP) monitors, invests, and adjusts on your behalf — in accordance with your retirement goals.
- Log into My Alerus
- Under Financial Wellness, click on Retirement Planning.
- Complete the workout and click Choose Selected Plan > Do It For Me
We all have a dream for what we want in retirement.
Get Started Today!Frequently Asked Questions
Alerus’ managed account program (MAP) delivers retirement advice directly to participants, helping them navigate retirement with confidence. MAP is much more than an investment solution, it allows participants to prioritize personal goals to deliver a tailored solution. This includes advice on contribution rate and investment strategy to meet participant goals around retirement income range, retirement age, and risk appetite.
Personalization. Unlike target-date funds that focus on a hypothetical retirement date or risk-based solutions with static portfolios, Alerus’ managed accounts create solutions based on personalized goals. According to research by the Vanguard Group, Inc., most participants who adopted managed account advice realized higher projected retirement wealth through improved expected returns and savings.
Not all managed account programs are equal, many focus on investment allocation only and are often constructed from the line-up in the current retirement plan. Alerus’ solution offers holistic retirement advice including contribution rate, prioritization of retirement goals, ability to include external retirement assets in your scenario, no proprietary mutual funds, and cost savings to balances above $400,000 by introducing individual securities ultimately reducing fund costs.
When a participant enrolls in MAP they provide relevant retirement information through an intuitive digital experience. MAP then analyzes combinations of retirement goals (retirement age and retirement income) and actions (savings rate and investment strategy). For each combination of these four elements, MAP determines the statistical likelihood that the strategy will fund an acceptable level of retirement income from the start of your retirement through your life expectancy. Alerus will monitor your managed account’s performance, periodically rebalance it back to its target allocations, and if your personal or financial circumstances lead to a different suggested strategy, we may change your investment to reflect the updated strategy. We recommend participants review and update their MAP data annually or as material changes in your personal situation occur.
Alerus will act as your investment advisor with full decision-making authority over the investments in your account(s). Alerus acknowledges that we are an “investment manager” as defined by ERISA’s Section 3(38). Unlike most other providers, the Alerus Managed Account Program does not use proprietary mutual funds in the participant asset allocations. This gives Alerus the freedom to create the most effective portfolio for participants. In addition, Alerus may offer individual securities to balances above $400,000 reducing management cost.
There is no minimum balance requirement.
The fee is 0.45 percent prorated over 365 days and applied to the average daily balance of your managed account. The fee is accrued daily and collected monthly. On an annual basis, the fee equals approximately $4.50 for each $1,000 invested.
Alerus MAP offers a digital experience to help you navigate your retirement goals. Alerus has backed this technology with a team of financial professionals to support more complex situations or questions. Participants are able to pick-up the phone and talk to a professional at no additional charge.
Upon enrolling in the MAP, participants no longer have the ability to direct investments. However, they can take an active role at any time by personalizing their retirement strategy. For example, participants can adjust their risk preference, change their desired retirement age, adjust savings rate, change desired retirement income, or include other investment accounts outside of the plan, and a new simulation will analyze and re-run their scenario.
Participants can exit the MAP at any time, moving assets from the Alerus MAP to the core funds in the plan. Transfers into and out of the Alerus MAP require three to five business days for processing.

Based in the Cardiff School of Management at Cardiff Metropolitan University (formerly UWIC) Cardiff Institute for Co-operative Studies (CICS) was a research unit dedicated to co-operatives with a worldwide reputation.
Formed initially in 2002 from a conversation between myself and the founding Director, Dr Len Arthur, it continued to go from strength to strength under the direction of Molly Scott-Cato until she moved to the University of Roehampton in 2011. It continued for a while under the directorship of Russell Smith, but is now inactive.
The Institute was the first Wales-based research centre working to focus primarily on exploring and developing knowledge about co-operatives, credit unions, mutuals and member-based organisations in the region, and for the whole of its existence I chaired the Advisory Board, as well as collaborating on some the research projects.
It comprised academic and research staff within the school, together with a broader network of practitioners and academics from across Wales and the UK and is part of various international networks of academics who are engaged in complementary work. Through collaborations and networks, members of the Institute are actively involved in the promotion and development of the co-operative organisations and applied research through umbrella organisations such as the UK Society for Co-operative Studies, Co-operatives UK and Co-operatives and Mutuals Wales.
Key areas of expertise included critical management, applied economics, regeneration policy and practice, social, environmental and economic aspects of sustainability, quantitative and qualitative methods of social research, and practical experience of developing and supporting a wide range of Co-operatives, Mutuals, Credit Unions and other Social Enterprises in a variety of settings.

Proper sex education is so far the only thing that is proven to prevent teen pregnancy.
Not having sex is another but teaching abstinence made no difference in the statistics.
Encourage the use of contraceptives and make it easier kids to get.
Help parents in how to speak to their kids about this since many kids don tell their parents or feel they can talk to them about this. Many parents are in denial that their child could have sex.
To support teen moms there has to be daycare and also welfare so they can handle school without getting a job. Taking care of child and homework is usually more then enough. Especially if you want good grades.
Make sure the teen moms knows about contraceptives after they've had their baby so they don't have one before the school is over. This happens. Also educate the father.

Saudi Arabia’s keenness on undertaking a large project like The Line at this time, in addition to the follow-up by Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, affirm the seriousness towards diversifying the economy and promote development, NEOM board member and Minister of Commerce and acting Minister of Media, Majid Al-Qasabi, told Al Arabiya.
The Line project aims to fulfill the transformative model for future cities, so that NEOM will become a global interface to attract a unique urban model across the world, Al-Qasabi added.
NEOM reflects the unprecedented radical transformation that the Kingdom is witnessing, as it is a new polarized and attractive platform across continents.
NEOM is a distinctive and innovative model, which will create opportunities in various fields, whether job opportunities, investments, or partnerships.
The minister asserted that taking advantage of these opportunities will put Saudi Arabia in the ranks of developed countries.
The project is considered an economic engine for the region, as NEOM will play a pivotal role in development, he highlighted, pointing out that the city will set a scale to measure future cities and determine the Kingdom’s image in general and Saudi citizen in particular.
Earlier this week, the Crown Prince unveiled The Line project within NEOM, a city of million residents, as its development will start during Q1 2021, according to data compiled by Argaam.

ArmorCode helps organizations shift from chasing vulnerabilities to reducing risk, helping application and infrastructure security teams burn down their critical security tech debt and eliminate complexity in their security programs.
Modern software delivery has changed the security game
Software is delivered in more places, more often than ever before. Risk is fragmented across the SDLC, and security teams are running siloed security scanners that generate a massive number of alerts to gather all the pieces. They’re trapped in an Excel hell of manual correlation, reporting, and sprinting to stand still.
What is ArmorCode?
The AI-powered ArmorCode ASPM Platform helps teams identify, communicate, and remediate their most critical security vulnerabilities and risks. It integrates with all your scanners and streamlines pentest management to create a unified understanding of risk across your application portfolio, leverages intelligent risk scoring to prioritize your most critical risks, and orchestrates security workflows with developers to remediate issues efficiently and at enterprise scale. ArmorCode enables security teams to scale their impact, remediate and prevent high priority security issues, and identify coverage gaps and overlaps across their ecosystem.

Many people are interested in trading stocks online for a variety of reasons. Over time, this is a great way to earn extra income or to build wealth. Anyone who is looking to make a difference in their finances needs to understand the basics of online trading. Making money is a lot harder than many people realize. There are several basic rules that you should follow when trading online.
- Never panic
- Think long term
- Buy on weakness
- Sell fast pops on stocks
- Admit your mistakes
A lot of people view online trading as just a quick way to make some money. However, there are a lot of applications for stock trading. Not only will this get you more connected to the overall economy, but it will also help you to make a difference in your finances in the future.
Which stocks to buy
The key to making money in the stock market is to buy the right stocks at the right time. There are examples of stocks where it may be a good company, but for whatever reason the stock is not a great one. A lot of investors will chase stocks after a big run.
This is never a good idea. If you are looking to purchase a stock, make sure you buy into weakness. The best time to buy the stock of a quality company is when the entire stock market goes down and takes that company along with it. Quality companies have several things in common:
- Brand value
- Customer loyalty
- Strong balance sheet
- Good leadership
- Strong growth
Before buying the stock of any company, always make sure that you truly understand the core business principles that the company is about.
When to sell a stock
There are several different views of online investing. Some people believe that daily trading is the best way to make money. Other people believe that buying and holding for the long term will help you build wealth the most. The truth is that there are times when it makes sense to do both. If you recently purchased a stock before a big run, it may be time to take some profits off the table. There is nothing wrong with selling a stock and making money.
One of the biggest reasons to consider holding onto a stock is the dividend payout. This is basically money paid out to investors that helps to increase your overall level of wealth. Dividends are usually paid out quarterly, and this can be a great way for you to get regular income from your investments. There are even some people who have built up so much wealth in stocks that they can live off of dividend income.
Investing online is not a fast way to get rich. However, it can be a nice way to make some extra money or to build wealth for the future. If you are interested in doing this, make sure to conduct some research on the front end. A lot of people get into trouble by trying to invest all of their money into a single stock that goes down in value.

An important part of manhood has always been about having the competence to be effective in the world — having the breadth of skills, the savoir-faire, to handle any situation you find yourself in. With that in mind, each Sunday we’ll be republishing one of the illustrated guides from our archives, so you can hone your manly know-how week by week.
Nothing caps off a day quite like a roaring campfire. But, one of the cruel ironies of summer is that even though we spend more time outside, the warm weather makes those perfect day-ending fires less comfortable to be around. Luckily, there’s a smarter way to build a fire that suits the season, so you can enjoy its crackle, smell, and glow, without having to break a sweat.
Building a summer fire starts with sourcing the right wood. Unlike most fire-building techniques, a summer fire demands that you start with some green, unseasoned wood. Ideally, your green logs come from a slow-burning species of wood like white oak, ash, or birch. It’s also useful if they come whole and unsplit. Such wood won’t blaze as big, bright — or hot. Use the above tips to enjoy a cozy fire even in the heart of summer.

Olympic 580BR with Suzuki DF115 2019 SOLD
Here we have an almost new Olympic 580 Bowrider very fitted with a Suzuki DF115 ATL low hrs and dry stored.
Like all Olympic boats, so the 580BR is unsinkable, with smooth running and easy handling performance. High quality construction materials are used to achieve perfect surface, high strength and superior osmosis resistance.
The fiberglass self-bailing cockpit allows easy cleaning, whereas the curved safety-glass windshield offers long-life optimum visibility and great look. Lots of storage spaces are provided for your gear, as well as many comfortable seating for your friends and family.
Combining the above with the style, the long list of standard features, the five-year warranty plus the attractive price, the Olympic 580BR sorts out as the ideal boat of your dreams you can trust.
Length: 5,72 m
Beam: 2,28 m
Weight: 710 KG
Fuel tank:140 KG
Passengers: 8 Person
Hull deadrise: 18 Degrees
Olympic’s boat building process involves both innovative techniques, as well as traditional craftsmanship. In every stage, only the best materials and brand name components are used to ensure long-lasting quality. But the key component in producing a boat is the people who build it. With that in mind, Olympic staff has been highly trained and specialised in a specific sector.
With safety as a first priority, Olympic boats comply to the CE regulations. However, we didn’t stay there. We have established even higher standards than those necessary, so that you don’t have to worry about a thing when you travel with an Olympic. And to be sure of that, all our boats are constructed as unsinkable.
Our hulls have been tested thoroughly to provide the best performance. Also, all Olympic boats are now using reversed chines in order to deflect spray downwards and produce a drier running boat, with better tracking and even more stability in tight turns.
In our design process, we blend both style and functionality to create a combination of luxury, performance and safety. Computer-aided design (CAD) is used to design the boat and optimise every centimetre to the maximum. Plus, a great deal of time is dedicated to the details that make every new Olympic boat unique.
Quality control is performed throughout the entire build process. The lamination process is closely calibrated for ratios of glass to resin, for correct pressures on spraying equipment, for resin temperatures, catalyst percentages and cure time. These details ensure maximum structural strength and resistance to the hard marine environment. Finally, all boat parts remain in the mould through the entire curing process, thereby eliminating any possibility of warping.

Two hundred feet down the cliff from Deadman’s Point lies an exposed coal vein that, according to the coal miner who discovered it, contains enough fuel to change the face of San Francisco. “I am of the opinion,” the man told the San Francisco Chronicle in 1891, “that it marks the opening of a vein of coal that will develop fully as good as any that can be found on the Pacific slope.”
Found by a lifelong coal miner named Charles Jackson more than 120 years ago, the announcement rocked the young city and sparked a frenzy of development in a remote corner of Land’s End, a popular tourist attraction on the San Francisco Bay. Strangely, little documentation exists about this spectacular find; San Francisco historian John Martini helped us track down a meager three newspaper notices from the time.
Tourists rarely attempt to enter this space, though, and most locals don’t know that it exists. Aside from a few nimble raccoons, it’s likely that no one has seen the inside of this tunnel in more than 40 years, let alone photographed it.
Adolph Sutro owned the land where the coal was discovered and, after finding the quality to be higher than anything else on the West Coast, started development of a prospecting tunnel within days of Jackson’s discovery. Meanwhile, Jackson followed the vein north, clear through Marin County, finding deposits of coal the entire way, 30 feet underground. Every indication pointed to a bonanza of high quality coal just on the outskirts of the already booming Gold Rush city.
Until that point, coal of this quality had to be shipped from as far away as Vancouver, British Columbia. Looking at the land now though, it’s clear that the vein was never fully exploited. The reason remains a mystery.
As the land around the tunnel eroded, it became more and more difficult to access until only the most adventurous neighborhood kids would venture into it. The story of the tunnel’s origins faded too. The only fragments of evidence that remain include a handful of newspaper articles from March and April of 1891, worn brick and iron infrastructure, and a 250-foot tunnel bored through solid rock, a portion of which cuts through a thick column of jet black bituminous coal.
The tunnel was dug parallel to the coastline and was, at one point, accessible on either end by a footpath. Landslides have since taken out the path and portions of the tunnel, leaving it in three broken sections. One of these sections is bisected by a sea cave. This provides the only reasonable access to the tunnel but still involves technical climbing and careful planning. When it was first dug out of the cliff face, the tunnel was about seven feet high and at least four feet wide. A century of earthquakes and stormy weather have taken their toll though. There is clear evidence of cave-ins and some points have been reduced to crawl spaces.
The tunnel and its openings are only visible from the beach below and the beach is only accessible at exceptionally low tides. Depending on the season, the level of sand can also vary dramatically, meaning the difference between walking on dry sand and wading through chest deep tide pools. Even under ideal conditions, it’s extremely important to pay attention to the tides. It’s easy to lose track of time and wind up swimming out instead. If you do decide to explore this piece of San Francisco history, understand that the name Deadman’s Point didn’t just come out of nowhere.

Looks similar to a couple i had - one was black, red and white- had the same white plastic grille - had a 10HP teccy , i knew that one was early because it didnt have posts for a magneto, had a 'brain box' and points.
I also had a blue one similar to yours, cept that had been pretty much stripped tho - had these huge rear tires and trans pulley - thing had a cigarette lighter also .
Im not sure if its one of those rare ' Richard Petty ' blue ones - reguardless, id restore it to original . i dont think that seat is original either - i have an original 82 dynamark , along with the the 10HP teccy one- they both had lowback black seats.
After a certain point, dynamark went to black grilles - so its probably an early one- if it has a briggs motor- check the 1st two digits of the code on the flywheel shroud - thats the year of the motor

The responsibility for the social sustainability of the content broadcast by Atresmedia comes to the forefront when covering key political, economic or social events and situations where truthful and quality news content is an absolute must. It is also embodied in Atresmedia’s pledge to function as a mouthpiece for social issues and concerns, showing society in all its diversity and making numerous social causes more visible, thus helping to raise public awareness and calling society to action by undertaking different campaigns and initiatives (see 8.2.2. Commitment to the society surrounding Atresmedia).
Atresmedia formally sets out its commitments to society in its General Corporate Responsibility Policy, which was updated in 2021 in response to emerging social changes. This policy was approved by the Audit and Control Committee and is further supplemented by other policies and commitments that build on the Group’s commitment to society and the environment:
Atresmedia also worked on drafting a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Policy in 2023, which will be approved in early 2024, to set out the Group’s commitments to these values.
Atresmedia offers a quality-based model and is firmly committed to the social sustainability of its content
As mentioned earlier, the principles and commitments set out in the General Corporate Responsibility Policy are a key element when it comes to building the Company’s strategic priorities and in steering the actions undertaken to achieve them.
The Atresmedia Corporate Responsibility Committee, set up in 2010, meets annually to address the Company’s sustainability challenges and objectives with an all-encompassing perspective, thanks to the representation of various corporate areas that are key to success in the daily management of sustainability (Human Resources, General Services, Operational Management, Internal Audit, Corporate Governance, Advertising, Content, News, Suppliers, Finance and Strategy). Some of the most topical issues addressed by the Committee in 2023 included the regulatory tsunami in sustainability, the Company’s Net Zero strategy, the commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and the launch of the Zero Waste project to ensure proper waste management.
Each year, the Group reports on the progress made towards the commitments set out in the General Corporate Responsibility Policy by disclosing relevant information in its Statement of Non-financial Information (SNFI), on Atresmedia’s corporate responsibility website, which is regularly updated, and on its non-financial dashboard.
Atresmedia includes its commitment to society and the environment in its General Corporate Responsibility Policy, which reflects its tireless efforts to become more sustainable.
For all these reasons, and given that Atresmedia considers corporate responsibility to be part and parcel of its strategy, the Group strives to find and learn from good practices in other sectors, as well as the latest trends in ESG matters and any regulations that may have a direct or indirect impact on the Company. Along these lines, Atresmedia plays a proactive role in the Transparency, Social Commitment and Environment clusters of Forética, a benchmark organisation in sustainability and corporate social responsibility in Spain. It is also actively involved in the activities carried out by the SERES Foundation and the Global Compact and attends the quarterly meetings of the Responsible Media Forum, all of them prominent organisations that work hard to integrate social, environmental and good governance aspects into the strategy and management of companies.

Answers to common questions regarding therapy at our practice
How long does each therapy session take?
Sessions are 55 minutes long. Occasionally it may be better to go on with a session, rather than stop or postpone work on a particular issue. When this extension is more than 10 minutes, your therapist will tell you, because sessions that are extended beyond 10 minutes will be charged on a prorated basis. Some insurances will cover extended sessions based on medical necessity criteria.
How long will I be in psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy is unique to the individual and the length of treatment cannot be determined from the outset. Therapy depends on many factors in relation to the individual and to the scope of issues to be addressed. Successful psychotherapy also depends on maintaining the momentum of the work. Thus, committing to attend regularly set sessions is important. Most clients find weekly sessions the most productive. At times, your therapist may recommend bi-weekly, or twice-a-week sessions are the right pace for you. This will be discussed during your initial visit and revisited if the recommendation changes.
Do you offer online virtual therapy?
Yes. Online sessions are available to those who reside in New Jersey. You must be physically located in New Jersey during each session due to licensing regulations. Some insurance companies will cover online sessions. It is best to call your insurance and ask if your specific policy covers this service. Online sessions are conducted over a HIPAA compliant platform.
How much does seeing a therapist cost?
If you are using insurance, the cost is dependent upon your policy and may include a co-payment, deductible, or co-insurance. These fees are determined by your insurance company and are due each session. Some people do not pay anything. Others have a small co-payment, while some have a large deductible. Each policy is different. It is best to contact your insurance company to verify your benefits prior to the first session.
If you are utilizing out-of-network benefits or private self-pay, the fee schedule is as follows:
Initial Evaluation $250
Individual 55-minute session $200
Family sessions $175
Reduced rate sessions available for those who do not have insurance or have an insurance we do not accept - Individual 45-minute session $60
Couples/Family 45-minute session $80.
To help meet the needs of the community, we offer services with our associate licensed associate therapist at a reduced rate. These rates are reserved for those who do not have insurance or have insurance we do not accept. Associate therapists are able to accept select insurances and are under the supervision of Kimberly Schaffer, Maureen Mulvanerton, Kathleen Azzaro, Andrea Magistro, and Annette Smith. Associate licensed therapists are licensed in New Jersey and have met all education requirements to practice under the supervision of a certified clinical supervisor.
Clinical Consultation via phone contact (not a meeting) $150
Clinical Consultation virtual or in-person meetings $350 per hour plus travel time
Reports $250 per hour
Letters $150 per hour
Clinical consultation with other professionals (psychiatrists, primary care physicians, therapists, school staff) is provided at the rate of $150 per hour.
Charges for other services, such as hospital visits, home visits, or school meetings will be based on the time involved in providing the service at the hourly rate of $350 including travel time.
Some services may require payment in advance. We write letters for established clients for specific clinical issues.

Aged care stakeholders have voiced concerns about the challenges many providers will face to meet additional reporting requirements announced in the Federal Budget.
Under the new measures aged care providers will have to report on care staffing minutes at the facility level annually from July 2021.
Then from July 2022, they will need to report staffing minutes quarterly as well as provide a monthly statement to residents and family members outlining the care received including any significant changes or events during the month.
This information along with the reporting requirements attached to the new $10 Basic Daily Fee supplement will inform the star rating system on My Aged Care from December 2022 as of a $200 million package to help people compare aged care homes.
Then from October 2023 providers will be required to deliver a minimum of 200 care minutes to each resident daily including 40 minutes with a registered nurse as part of budget measures to boost the amount of care delivered to senior Australians.
- $18b aged care budget outlines new care model
- Govt favours Briggs’ leadership model
- Budget measures welcome, but more to do, stakeholders say
Aged Care Industry Information Technology Council chair Dr George Margelis welcomed the increased transparency, but said it would be challenging for aged care providers using manual systems.
“Those people who don’t already have digital systems in place will find it quite challenging. And I suspect that they’ll have a little bit of a roadblock in that they’ll try to implement a system for capturing the sort of data in a very short time frame,” Dr Margelis told Australian Ageing Agenda.
“Because there isn’t a [computer] set up at every resident’s bedside to start capturing this information, they need things like wide area and WiFi networks, which enable them to login and capture this information so they will find this challenging,” he said.
Dr Margelis said another challenge is streamlining the reporting process, so it doesn’t become an “onerous task on staff to spend all their time logging hours”.
It would have been better to start a pilot in July 2021 to better understand what is involved and implement it in steps from there, he said.
“It sounds good on paper but when it comes to doing it at the bedside, a number of other complexities come into play. Personally, I would have had it as a more iterative process,” Dr Margelis said.
Most providers not equipped
Similarly, the CEO of aged care software vendor Health Metrics, Steven Strange said most providers lacked the technology to easily report care minutes.
“I’d say the vast majority of providers are not geared for it,” Mr Strange told AAA.
“The reality is, if providers want to be strong and viable, they need to get their electronic act together. Because the world’s changing the need to report data in real-time and other things of that ilk are just accelerating now,” Mr Strange said.
Providers who are not appropriately equipped “will be in lots of trouble,” he said.
Dr Margelis said providers should be looking closely at their workflows in preparation to report care minutes.
Care minute reporting as interim measure
Macquarie University’s Ageing and Aged Care Researchers Network chair Professor Denise Jepsen said reporting requirements for care minutes should be viewed as a short-term requirement to change operations.
“What I would like to see is we report this data for a couple of years until providers and society gets used to it. And then we don’t have to do this micro-reporting, unless it’s technology-enabled or automated in some way,” Professor Jepsen told AAA.
“Hopefully after a couple of years, it’ll be so embedded that the reporting won’t be required and it just becomes a short-term strain as we change from old world to new world. But we don’t want nurses, carers or our managers to spend all day reporting,” she said.
Professor Jepsen said a provider representative told her it would cost $2 to $3 per resident per day to record the care minutes.
“It’s taking away from resident care,” she said.

At 6:30pm on Friday, July 19th, Austrans received an urgent call from an Energy Provider, reporting a serious incident that required immediate attention. A car had collided with a power pole, causing the transformer to fall and spill oil across a car park and the adjacent grass area. This unexpected accident resulted in multiple houses losing power. Recognising the severity of the situation, Austrans sprang into action, demonstrating their commitment to efficient emergency response. By 8pm, a dedicated team was on-site, ready to tackle the challenge.
Austrans prides itself on its ability to respond swiftly and effectively to emergencies. Mobilising a skilled crew, the team secured the accident site, cleaned up the spilled transformer oil, and transported the oil waste for recycling in strict compliance with environmental regulations.
Austrans holds a contract with an Energy Provider, which operates across Queensland, to manage the recycling of outdated transformers. Older transformers, often contaminated with PCB, require special handling and disposal methods. Once the transformers are due for replacement, Austrans deploys their vacuum tankers to pump out the oil, and this oil is then transported to an oil refinery for further treatment. The remaining steel from the transformers is recycled and repurposed for various industrial applications, demonstrating Austrans’ commitment to sustainability and resource conservation.
Understanding the urgency of the situation, especially given the presence of contaminated oil, Austrans swiftly dispatched their specialised Non-Destructive Digging (NDD) unit. The NDD unit’s jetter hose was used to break up and vacuum the contaminated soil, effectively removing the oil-contaminated material from the site. Additionally, the team pressure washed the bitumen and concrete surfaces, restoring them to their original condition.
Throughout the entire process, Austrans’ team worked diligently, showcasing their expertise and dedication to resolving the crisis efficiently. By 10pm, the cleanup operation was completed. The site was secured, the spill was thoroughly cleaned, all waste was disposed of safely, and the affected households were on the way to having their power restored.
This incident underscored Austrans’ capability and readiness to handle emergencies. Their comprehensive approach, from the initial response to the final cleanup, ensured that public safety and environmental health were prioritised at every step.
Austrans are proud of their team for stepping up! We’re committed to our customers 24/7. Your emergency is our emergency.
Austrans does it best
With safety and efficiency at the forefront of our services, Austrans is here to help. Established in 1999, the Austrans Group is proudly Australian-owned and operated, and is now recognised as an industry leader in waste management, industrial services, project management, and high-pressure water blasting all over South East Queensland.

Strawberry Mochi Ice Cream with Baileys
A trending Japanese-inspired dessert with an indulgent Baileys twist in a few steps? Yes please! If you haven’t heard of Mochi balls then no fuss, we love trying out new recipes for you to enjoy. Strawberry flavoured Mochi dough hugs a thick scoop of vanilla ice cream and a splash of Baileys, for a burst of flavour in every bite. An intricate dessert you can batch make and store in your freezer for a delightful treat whenever you fancy.
300g vanilla ice cream, softened slightly
100g glutinous white rice flour (available in Asian grocery stores)
80g caster sugar
1-2tsp strawberry essence
35g cornflour, plus extra for dusting
Few drops of pink food colouring
- STEP ONE
To prepare our Mochi ball filling, in a bowl mix together ice cream and Baileys until smooth. Pop into the freezer and freeze until firm. With a warm ice cream scoop or spoon, scoop 12-15 balls of ice cream and place them on a lined baking tray. Pop them back into the freezer again for at least 5 hours or overnight if you can.
- STEP TWO
To make the casing, in a bowl mix the rice flour and caster sugar well, set aside. To a saucepan add 200ml of water, followed by the strawberry essence and food colouring. Add the rice flour and sugar mixture, place over medium heat and continuously stir until the mixture thickens. You are looking for the mixture to bind together to create a sticky dough, this should take around 3 minutes.
- STEP THREE
Evenly dust a baking tray with half the cornflour and pour out your pastel pink mochi dough. Flatten the mochi dough and dust with the remainder of the cornflour. Your mochi casing is done, leave to cool completely before dividing up into 12-15 pieces.
- STEP FOUR
Roll your 12-15 mochi pieces into balls. Try to match the size of these balls to the size of your ice cream balls, as this will make sure you have enough dough to cover each ice cream ball generously. Carefully roll the dough into flat circles and place into a small ramakin or cupcake dish. In the middle of each circle add a frozen scoop of your Baileys flavoured ice cream. Bring the edges of the dough together in the middle and pitch to seal.
- STEP FIVE
Pop your finished Baileys Strawberry Mochi Balls into the freezer until firm. Dust with icing sugar and take a bite. Store in the freezer for whenever you need a delicious, sweet treat.

Benefits for the construction industry
Despite the current challenges, robots and AI have the potential to benefit our businesses and our clients. Robots can access small or dangerous places on site, reducing the risk to employees. They can carry out repetitive tasks that people might not want to do because they are monotonous or logistics-based tasks like taking items from one place to another.
Once programmed, AI could carry out data entry, document control, meeting organisation and placing orders. It could improve our customer service by acting as a 24-hour helpdesk, dispatching the right people or equipment to resolve issues. However, it is not just about what technology can achieve on its own.
Erik Brynjolfsson at MIT believes the real challenge is “…combining machines and humans in new ways to allow us to do tasks we previously couldn't have done.”
1 With this in mind, the construction industry needs to identify opportunities to fuse machine and human skills to deliver optimal outcomes.

October, 2024: A Cappella Company, Dachau's first women’s barbershop choir, has launched an innovative project to advance the spread of German-language barbershop music. With the vision of making the a cappella genre "barbershop," which originally hails from the USA, more accessible to a German-speaking audience, the choir is pursuing a unique endeavor. This project aims not only to enrich the local choral scene in Dachau but also to take a pioneering role in the nationwide barbershop community.
Project Overview: The focus of the project, which is funded by the Federal Government for Culture and Media (BKM) as part of the Amateur Music Fund, is on developing new barbershop arrangements tailored specifically to German pop and jazz music. By collaborating with renowned arrangers such as Kevin Köhl and Thorsten Engels, modern German pop songs have been adapted for the four-part barbershop style. These arrangements are intended to appeal especially to younger audiences, thereby not only expanding the A Cappella Company’s repertoire but also making choral singing more attractive to youth. Kevin Köhl, who began arranging in 2010 and has already worked with numerous choirs and ensembles, brings his extensive experience to the project. In 2023, he won the gold medal at the German Barbershop Competition with his quartet "Chord Cracker" and is a member of several award-winning ensembles. For this project, he is arranging the songs “Bin heute Abend bei dir” (Roger Cicero), “Ich bin dann mal weg” (Daniel Caccio), and “Lichterketten” (Sascha). Thorsten Engels, also an experienced barbershop singer and arranger, has been commissioned for the project as well. With his mixed quartet “SomeSing,” he won the gold medal at the German Championships in 2018. For the A Cappella Company, he is arranging the songs “Habt uns gern” (Carolin No), “A Cappella” (Wise Guys), and “Schnee im Gefrierfach” (Nicole Rost).
Regional Importance: Strengthening Cultural Diversity The project is also of special significance for the Dachau region and district. By creating a locally rooted yet innovative choir project, the A Cappella Company contributes to the cultural diversity of the area. In the planned concert series “Chöre wie wir” ("Choirs Like Us"), the new repertoire will not only be showcased but also the importance of regional cultural work will be highlighted. The involvement of local artists and collaboration with publishers of German choral literature underscore the close connection of this project to the local music scene. A central aim of the project is to make barbershop music in the German language more accessible to choir members and other choirs in Germany. Barbershop is a niche genre in Germany, primarily sung in English. The project seeks to address this imbalance and, through German lyrics, inspire more people to enjoy this style of music.
Long-Term Goals and Impact The project goes beyond merely creating new German arrangements. By developing so-called "teach tracks," it aims to make it easier for choirs without music-reading skills to start performing in the barbershop style, significantly simplifying access to the music.
With this initiative, the A Cappella Company is laying a sustainable foundation for the continued development of barbershop music in Germany. The promotion of young talent and the effort to make choral music contemporary and appealing ensures the future of choral singing in the region and beyond. The project began in January 2024 with the selection of German songs and collaboration with the arrangers. By the end of 2024, the arrangements will be completed and presented in the choir’s upcoming concerts.

How to prep and smoke spare ribs like a pro. Prep Time: 20 Minutes Cook Time: 4 Hours 30 Minutes Yield: 20 Ribs
- 2 racks of Pork spare ribs
- Rubs: Bam Bam’s Picks - Plowboys Yardbird, with a top layer of Smoking Guns Sweet and Heat.
- Heavy duty aluminum foil
- Clover honey
- Parkay butter
- Brown sugar
- BBQ Sauce: Bam Bam’s Picks - It's gotta be Blues Hog Original.
- Spray Bottle
- Apple Juice
- Wood chunks or pellets: Bam Bam’s Picks - Apple wood and pecan wood
- Preheat your smoker to 250 degrees. Now it’s time to prep your spares. Start by trimming your spare ribs however you like to. If you want a St Louis cut, find the tallest bone and from that point, cut a straight line all the way across the rib. You will be left with a nice rectangle St Louis cut spare rib, the leftover top piece is what’s called the rib tips. Don’t throw away the tips! Cook them! I like to trim some of the fat off the top. Then flip them over and with a butter knife, get under the membrane and pull up a corner. Grab the corner with a paper towel and pull the membrane off.
- Now you are ready to season your ribs. To retain moisture in the rib hold off on seasoning them until 30 minutes before you are ready to place them on your cooker. Apply both of your rubs to the top side and sides of your spare rib, let them sit out for ten minutes, you will notice your rib sweating , this process allows the rubs to penetrate the meat. After ten minutes flip the rib and repeat. Now you are ready to place the ribs on your smoker.
- Once your smoker hits 250 degrees, place the ribs on the smoker for two hours. For the first hour, DO NOT open your cooker. This gives the rubs time to set. After the first hour, spray the ribs with apple juice every fifteen to twenty minutes. This helps with moisture, color, and adds another light level of flavor. Once you hit 2 hours, pull your ribs off. Its now time to foil. Lay out the sheets of heavy duty foil. On the foil itself, sprinkle your rubs, a small handful of brown sugar, a few ounces of Parkay Butter, and honey. Lay the ribs meat side down on top of the foil mixture. Repeat the same process on the backside of the rib and seal the foil. Place the ribs back on the cooker meat side down for an additional 2 hours.
- Remove the ribs from the foil and check for doneness. I like to use a toothpick to poke the meat between the bones. If it slides through with ease, the ribs are done. If there is still some resistance, wrap the ribs back up and put them back on your cooker for another 15 minutes, then check them again, repeat this process until the ribs are done. Now that your ribs are done. Take them off the cooker, break the seal of the foil and let them rest. If you forget to break the seal, the ribs will continue to steam and overcook inside the foil. Heat up your Blues Hog BBQ Sauce on the stove. Pull the ribs from the foil and baste them with the Blues Hog. Now it’s time to cut and serve! Enjoy!

Why not everyone is happy with the City of Vancouver's new look
The City of Vancouver recently released a new logo. The simple logo generated a lot of discussion about both the cost and whether it was needed in the first place.
This prompts the question, when is a good time to change your logo?
Having been through a large-scale logo change before, it is a daunting and expensive task. The initial design costs aside, the real cost is the implementation on hundreds if not thousands of locations, from simple decals to full-blown backlit signs. That is where the real expense comes in.
There should be a good reason to change or update a logo given the significant expense. Keep in mind that, when you change the logo, consumers expect something different. If you change the logo because you are tired of it or you just think it’s time, save your money. It might backfire.
The best time to change the logo is when there is a significant change in strategy for the organization—that is when you get the most value for it. Consumers see something new, and therefore expect something new, so give it to them.
That’s what Mountain Equipment Co-op did. In June 2013 the company unveiled a new, very simple logo. The outcry from its long-time customers was swift and sharp, demanding a return to the original. “It could be a bank logo,” decried one commentator. But the change in design was in recognition of a change in strategic direction for the outdoor company, from a mountain climbing supplier to an outdoor supplier. Regardless of the design, it sent the right signal: there is something new and different here, come by and take a look.
Sometimes a logo just looks tired, so a refresh is in order. A good refresh doesn’t involve a lot of change, just enough for someone to say, “That looks better,” without really realizing it looks different. The rollout can happen over a long period of time, and most people won’t even notice; they’ll just feel better about you. The Netflix refresh is a good example. Its revision was so minimal the company didn’t even call it a logo change—it was just a “new icon.” An alternative description, I guess.
The cost of changing a logo can be daunting. The $8,000 the City spent is a fairly good deal. Sure, the logo looks simple, but all great ideas seem simple after the fact. Stare at a blank piece of paper, and coming up with something is hard. I’m sure there were many, many versions and iterations before settling on that particular logo. Some companies spend thousands, even millions on a new logo design, only to have a few stylized letters in various colours. Again, before going to the expense, make sure there is a good reason.
Finally, depending on the brand, there may be backlash. The Gap introduced a new logo in 2010, got hammered by its customers and quickly backpeddled. Nothing had changed in the stores, but the logo was supposed to honour the “heritage through the blue box while still taking it forward,” as stated by the company at the time. It went from svelt and somewhat stylish to blocky and plain, not really what a fashion brand is looking for. Poof, there goes more than a few million dollars.
So will the new Vancouver logo survive? There won’t be a large outcry to stay with the old one, even though most people like it better. The difference in this case is simple—if you don’t like a company’s new logo and you complain loudly enough, it will back down hoping you’ll continue to spend money with them.
The City doesn’t have that problem. It gets your money anyway, regardless of what the sign on the door looks like.

The Greece Halkidiki region is famous for its beautiful sandy beaches. The second or middle peninsula in this region is called Sithonia and is a must go if you would like to experience one of the most beautiful beaches of Greece. This place, which is near to the city of Nikiti is very easy to reach with any kind of vehicle, which you can park on a park place just next to the road and some 100 m away from the beach. This beauty is some 750 m long and up to 40 m wide. The inclination of the slope is normal and becuase of the point of swim beeing at around 30 m it is also suitable for small children. You will find many beach infrastructure here, and even a hotel soon and some beach catering.

Nara Prefecture has been a production area for various thin textiles since ancient times. Under these circumstances, the mosquito net fabric was improved and "dish towels" with carefully selected materials and stitching began to be manufactured. This dish towel was named `` Shirayuki'' because of its ability to absorb water, remove stains quickly, and feel silky smooth compared to conventional products.It maintains a fresh white color for a long time. Due to its time-honored tradition and quality, it is presented every year to the Great Buddha of Todaiji Temple in Nara for the annual body wipe.

A new centre for pupils on the autism spectrum at a school in Bedfordshire has been hailed as exemplary and praised by experts in Special Educational Needs (SEN) for its innovative design, which uses colourful carpets from Heckmondwike FB to meet the special visual and spatial needs of its pupils.
The new Nightingale Centre, which has become part of the specialist provision for autistic pupils at Mark Rutherford secondary school, features 240m2 of Supacord fibre bonded carpet. The carpet was specified by Mark Ellerby Architects in two carefully selected colours to create a calming, yet visually interesting, floor design.
The school has achieved a BREEAM Very Good rating thanks in part to the use of Supacord, which has a Building Research Establishment (BRE) Global A+ environmental rating for use in school buildings, offices and retail outlets.
Onyx and Kingfisher colourways were chosen to complement the green-blue colour scheme that runs throughout the school, creating a visually interesting aesthetic which avoids overwhelming the pupils, considering that colours can be particularly powerful and emotive for children on the autism spectrum. The centre provides the school with two additional classrooms, a computer room, kitchen and sensory room.
Project Architect Mark Ellerby said: “In addition to the well known durability and robustness of Supacord fibre bonded carpet, the colour range was ideal for creating a visually pleasing design which engages with the pupils whilst also having a calming effect. The choice of colours available from Heckmondwike also helped us to meet Part M regulations by creating sufficient contrast between the colour of the walls and that of the carpet.”
Mark Ellerby added: “The school has been praised by specialists as exemplary, both in terms of plan arrangement and colours. The flooring design was central to this achievement and so it was vital for the carpet to be high-quality and durable, to ensure that it retains its appearance and won’t be costly for the school to maintain.”
Supacord is widely specified for education buildings because it is renowned for its durability, helping to withstand areas of heavy wear and tear. Supacord also offers anti-slip and antistatic properties, both of which are a major concern for schools which are looking to protect their students and their equipment.
The robust properties of fibre bonded carpet, which will not ravel or fray, allowed contractors Richardson and Peat to cut the Supacord carpet on site to create a unique circular design in the sensory room, creating a flexible space whilst reducing the cost of installation.
Mark Ellerby explained: “Supacord proved to be a cost-effective solution and helped us to achieve a build cost per square metre that is well under normal building costs for such specialist education facilities, proving that it is still possible to achieve high quality design at a sensible build cost.”
Supacord is also compatible with F40 high tack adhesive which provides a sustainable and cost-effective end-of-life solution allowing carpet to be lifted without causing significant damage to the floorcovering or subfloor.
Heckmondwike FB is one of the leading carpet suppliers to the education, commercial and public sectors and is well-known for the excellent value, durability and high performance of its products.

You work really hard and are good at what you do, which is why you got promoted. You have a lot of knowledge about your organization, and can solve any problem that comes your way. You are a manager, and as the manager, you are ready to provide your insight and knowledge to your team to keep moving. However, maybe you should hold those thoughts.
When my son was a preschooler, he showed extreme aptitude in math. He was able to grasp the concepts of multiplication and division by the time he was in kindergarten. To this day, he loves math and deliberately looks for new math challenges and works on them until he figures it out. A lot of this ability started very early in his life when he first started doing addition. He would ask me simple questions like, “What is three plus four?” Instead of answering, “Seven,” I would challenge him. I would encourage him. Then he would use his fingers and figure out the answer. I knew he had enough information to connect the dots. Over the years, he continued to stretch his ability to problem solve.
As a manager, your job has fundamentally changed from the days when you were a worker. Your job is no longer to supply the answers; your job is to develop and nurture your team to be able to provide the answers. Solving problems for your people helps the organization in the short term, but it doesn’t help your people develop their own skills. By developing those skills, your employees will become engaged and more passionate to step up and solve situations for your organization, leaving you a better and more successful manager.

Third-Party Logistics (3PL) refers to a process where a third party takes on the responsibilities of logistics and distribution. Companies that produce and sell goods often contemplate the implementation of 3PL. Let's explore in more detail what 3PL is, including its unique features and its relationship with inventory management.
Fulfillment, Distribution, Logistics... and 3PL!
In the fast-paced commerce environment where speed is key, fulfillment and distribution are vital to a business’s competitiveness. Fulfillment includes the transportation, storage, loading, packaging, repackaging, and warehousing of goods, while distribution is a broader concept that connects the journey from production to consumption. Simply put, distribution is the strategic process of figuring out how to sell products to customers. Together, distribution and fulfillment are referred to as logistics.
What prompts the frequent outsourcing of this vital process to external entities? The principal driver is the potential resource savings in fulfillment and distribution. Undertaking comprehensive in-house logistics and distribution functions can lead to several constraints for a manufacturing business.
Manufacturing enterprises predominantly prioritize precise management and enhancement of production processes to elevate product quality and efficiency. However, should they also contend with decisions regarding packaging materials, warehouse placement, inventory and returns handling, and delivery time reduction, the allocation of time, effort, and resources might shift notably. The difference in expertise would be glaringly obvious.
Businesses that are relatively new or smaller in scale, with limited manpower to invest in fulfillment and distribution, can greatly benefit from adopting 3PL. Cost reduction, expertise enhancement, and improved customer satisfaction are some of the many benefits. Professional logistics companies can provide a faster and more efficient fulfillment and distribution experience using the knowledge gained from working with various manufacturing companies.
Typically, 3PL services vary in type depending on the extent to which they substitute for logistics. They may simply take care of storing and transporting goods, or handle the entire distribution process for more effective sales, from raw material procurement to return management. Some even go a step further, offering strategic partnership services under the name of fulfillment, utilizing outstanding infrastructure and IT technology to handle all order-related processes.
E-commerce Companies ‘Amazon’ Focuses on 3PL
Companies providing logistics services can be considered as 3PL. Recently, not only logistics companies but also e-commerce businesses driving fast deliveries have been leading the 3PL market. Take Amazon’s FBA (Fulfillment By Amazon) as an example.
FBA stores, ships, and manages inventory for retailers. By providing 3PL services to Amazon sellers struggling with logistics, it made sales worth 117 billion dollars in 2022 alone. FBA continues to grow rapidly and has established itself as a core business segment of Amazon.
Maximizing the Effect of 3PL
If you want to make wise business decisions that yield optimal effects, you must first analyze the current state and identify areas for improvement. Subsequently, you can determine the appropriate extent for outsourcing logistics functions. To accomplish this, a holistic understanding of the current logistics and distribution processes is imperative. An inventory management solution that compiles records of warehousing, purchase, and sales can provide appropriate data for companies wishing to implement 3PL.
It's important not to overlook fulfillment and distribution despite adopting 3PL. Take a moment to assess if your 3PL efforts align with your intended goals. A valuable approach involves seamlessly connecting your 3PL partner with an inventory management solution for instant data exchange. A well-structured process and guidance, integrating the inventory solution with your 3PL provider, prove crucial. Take BoxHero, a simple inventory management app, for example. With its intuitive user interface and fluid user experience, anyone can learn how to use the app within a day or two.
Equally vital is the application of barcodes, enabling our 3PL (Third-party Logistics) partners to effectively oversee the products. Barcodes accurately monitor inflow and outflow quantities, facilitating seamless inventory checks, given their specialized utility. With BoxHero, you can print custom barcodes with select information. Also, anyone with a smartphone and the BoxHero app can easily scan barcodes to check the inventory status. There is no need to purchase separate equipment, so 3PL providers can use it easily as well.
Exploring the integration of 3PL to streamline fulfillment and distribution? Consider using an inventory management solution such as BoxHero. Before implementing 3PL, it will be used to evaluate the current problems and directions for improvement, and after implementation, it facilitates regular reviews of inventory maintenance and prompt logistics procedures.
