The kids are out of school and it is hot. The good news is that it is almost peach season. If you’ve never had a fresh peach ripe from the tree you are missing out on life’s little pleasures. They very well could be my favourite fruit, it is a toss up between raspberries and peaches.
Why peaches? It started when we were little. I can still remember taking a trip out to Harrow with my mom and siblings in order to pick up some peaches to freeze. My mother would have to specifically tell us not to eat any on the way home…. it didn’t work. We tried to quietly eat them but we’d end up covered in peach juice and we ate plenty during the half an hour drive home.
Now you may be thinking, ‘what is so special about them?’ And I can understand your confusion if you have never eaten a peach from Essex County. They are simply the best, no question.
You have to eat them leaning over otherwise you get juice all over and the taste is hard to find in a grocery store. In fact, I can’t bring myself to buy peaches from a grocery as they simply can’t compare.
Moral of the story, if you have the chance, go for a drive and find the nearest peach orchard and buy them. You will not be disappointed. | <urn:uuid:d8fcd1ce-6ee1-4918-8a86-6df9624987fb> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://thelittlecidercompany.ca/peach-season/ | 2024-04-18T06:38:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.979225 | 292 |
Designed to unleash death at range, the Forgefiend is a Daemon Engine that can mount either the Hades Autocannon, a weapon capable of spitting a hail of shots, or the terrifying Ectoplasma Cannon, a weapon that blasts daemonic plasma at foes!
More like a daemonic beast than a machine, the Maulerfiend charges forward, determined to wreak as much havoc among the enemy lines as possible. Whipping tendrils draw hapless soldiers close to the brutal claws and jaws of this fearsome Daemon Engine.
Both the Chaos Space Marine Maulerfiend and Forgefiend are hulking models from which
numerous barbed, segmented tendrils are unfurled. A fusion of metal and
flesh that manifests in brutal creations, they feature a mind-boggling
array of details, from vents, stretched skulls, wires, bundles of
cables, pistons, cogs, spikes, claws through to their hoof-like feet,
and the Mark of Chaos is emblazoned across the carapace.
This multi-part plastic boxed set contains 67 components and a large oval base, with which to build one Chaos Space Marine Maulerfiend or Forgefiend. On this kit, the heads and arms are swappable.
This kit is supplied unpainted and requires assembly. | <urn:uuid:96bf65f7-485d-44e8-adcc-8759c9a879d4> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://thelootroom.com/product/chaos-space-marines-forgefiend-maulerfiend-99120102165/ | 2024-04-18T07:09:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.877814 | 281 |
Confideal is a new smart contracts platform that seeks to make it easier than ever for users to interact with smart contracts and create their own uses for blockchain technology. While it is possible to create smart contracts manually on the Etherium blockchain, this typically requires advanced coding skills, or at the very least the additional cost of employing a developer. additionally, in the event that there is a conflict it is often required to bring in third-party arbitration, who may not even be familiar with smart contracts and their properties. By making it straightforward to visually create, manage and enforce smart contracts, they are making a full stack of tools available to the general public, letting them take advantage of things usually reserved for programmers.
The ecosystem consists of three parts, a smart contract builder, and arbitration module, and the CDL token. The smart contract builder is a user-friendly platform that can be used to create Ethereum smart contracts visually, without coding. The arbitration module offers non-biased, experienced arbiters and legal firms to settle disputes from within the Confideal platform. The CDL token is the internal cryptocurrency for Confideal platform which allows users pay inside Confideal’s ecosystem without the commission.
While there have been several attempts at creating visual smart contract development tools, Confideal stands out by lending itself to a variety of use cases, as well as integrating arbitration modules. For example, within the cryptocurrency community, their visually program smart contracts could be applied to ICO’s and the creation of ERC20 tokens. This could also facilitate affiliate systems, e-commerce and online services. For individuals you could involve freelancing or programming of smart home systems, even escrow and leasing deals could take advantage of the platform. Within small business use cases, internal and international trade will become visually programmable.
The new product will be integrated with existing cryptocurrency tools, such as MetaMask.
The ICO will officially launch on the 2nd of November with a total token supply of one hundred million CDL tokens. Each thousand CDL tokens will be sold for one ether, with a bonus depending on the amount of ether collected during the ICO. 74% of tokens will be distributed during the ICO, with 10% going to the team and another 6% reserved for pre-ICO participants. The remainder of tokens will be used for promotional activities, advisors and bounty campaigns.
Confideal boasts a strong team of 14 members, many of whom have already worked on numerous ICOs. The project also features the support of several established cryptocurrency investment funds, including Cryptonomica and ICOPromo. Those interested participating in the Confideal ICO are advised to take a look at the project white paper, available at Confideal. Also, join Confideal’s Telegram.

The eleventh hour is fast approaching…gulp!
We just heard from the movers to confirm that they will be here on Monday morning between 8:30 and 9:00 a.m. It’s down to crunch time now and in my opinion, the most difficult in terms of packing. All the last minute stuff needs to be placed in boxes and it’s those last boxes that will contain odds and sods of everything that we’ve been using up until the last moment.
I’ve never NOT made my bed and for the last couple of weeks, the “WHY BOTHER” mode has kicked in.
I promise that this will be the very LAST time that you will ever see an unmade bed in our house! And where does the dust come from???
The living room is virtually impassable.
Heck, you can’t even tell that it’s our living room.
Well, here’s what it looks like now.
Pretty sad, huh?
Ever since the “SOLD” sign went up on the front lawn, we’ve both been detaching ourselves from the house. With all the painting and unpacking we have to do in Nova Scotia once we get there, I think our Christmas will be non-existent this year in terms of decorating. There is no way we can possibly get everything done in three weeks and that’s okay because we want to do things right the first time.
We had to move some boxes out of the kitchen because we just couldn’t get around. At least now we can get to the sink.
Tomorrow is the auction where we’ve placed all of the things that we haven’t either given away or sold that won’t be coming with us. That leaves Sunday to take care of the VERY last minute stuff. Tuesday, we’ll be on our way to our new home.
Wish us luck and please say a little prayer.

A UK-based Nigerian man has been left heartbroken after discovering that his girlfriend, whom he was planning to settle down with, had a child with her ex-lover.
The man, simply identified as Pascal, shared his heartbreaking tale on Twitter, stating that he had returned from the UK with the plan to surprise his girlfriend with a marriage proposal, only to be met with the shock of his life.
Upon his return, he discovered that his girlfriend had welcomed a child with her ex-lover within one year that he was away. She had kept it a secret from him until he returned to Nigeria.
Sharing the incident that he claimed changed his life forever, he wrote,
“I came back from the UK 🇬🇧 to propose to my girlfriend, only to find out that she had already had a child with her ex within a year. I have our chat on my phone.
She kept it a secret from me until I came back to Nigeria. On that fateful day, I called her so we could have a heart-to-heart discussion, and she broke the news to me. My life changed from that day, December 18th, 2022. The child was born on my birthday, May 12th.” | <urn:uuid:9373d014-9e93-4d00-90ea-3a0849c71064> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://thepodiummedia.com/heartbroken-nigerian-man-who-returned-from-uk-to-propose-to-his-girlfriend-narrates-how-he-discovered-she-welcomed-a-child-with-her-ex-while-he-was-away/ | 2024-04-18T07:16:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.997048 | 258 |
Doctor Joseph Ambani has revealed the ‘early’ warning signs of liver cancer, as most people are diagnosed during the later stages.
Around 5,800 people die from liver cancer every year in the UK – equivalent to 16 every day – making it the 8th most deadly cancer.
The disease either strikes in the liver, known as primary liver cancer, or starts somewhere else in the body and spreads to the liver, called secondary liver cancer. If it is diagnosed at an early stage, it may be possible to remove the cancer completely using a number of treatment options, including surgical resection or a liver transplant.
Unfortunately, most people are diagnosed when the cancer has spread too far to be removed or completely destroyed, warns NHS Inform. The American Cancer Society explains that it is often hard to spot the disease early because symptoms usually don’t appear until the later stages.
However, one health expert has pointed out the “first” warning signs that could signal liver cancer. Joseph Ambani, Medical Doctor from GlowBar, highlighted the red flags that strike “early on” during the course of the devastating disease and crop up at mealtimes.
He said: “Generally, people living with liver cancer will find themselves losing their appetite for food or being unable to eat as much as before due to abdominal discomfort or nausea. Additionally, those affected by the disease may find that even eating small amounts causes pain and discomfort in the stomach area.”
Changes in your appetite could ring alarm bells and alert you of the serious condition – but the symptom may also be linked to a number of other health problems. Understanding the symptoms of liver cancer is key to catching the disease early, and there are 10 red flags to watch out for.
Liver cancer symptoms
According to Ambani, the full list of early symptoms could include:
- Abdominal pain
- Unexplained weight loss
- Loss of appetite
- Jaundice (yellowing of the skin and the eyes)
- An enlarged abdomen due to fluid build-up (ascites)
- Shortness of breath
- Fatigue or weakness
- Nausea or vomiting.
He advised: “To identify potential liver cancer, pay close attention to your body’s warning signs.”
While these symptoms are considered ‘common’ signs of the disease, Cancer Nurse at Perci Health, Lisa Jacques, added that red flags can also be caused by conditions that are not cancer.
The nurse added: “So having these symptoms does not mean you definitely have liver cancer. It is important to speak to your GP about these symptoms, or any other symptoms that you are concerned about. If they are caused by cancer, detecting cancer earlier means it is more treatable.”
The NHS also recommends getting any symptoms of liver cancer checked “as soon as possible”.
What causes liver cancer?
According to NHS Inform, the exact causes of liver cancer are unknown, but most cases are associated with damage and scarring of the liver known as cirrhosis.
There are a number of causes for cirrhosis, including drinking excessive amounts of alcohol over many years and having a long-term hepatitis B or hepatitis C viral infection.
Obesity and an unhealthy diet can also increase the risk of liver cancer because this can lead to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The health body recommends cutting down on alcohol, eating healthily, exercising regularly, and taking steps to reduce your risk of becoming infected with hepatitis B and C. | <urn:uuid:17dc852d-612d-4df2-830d-594287452d0a> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://thepodiummedia.com/liver-cancer-early-warning-that-strikes-at-mealtime-could-be-signal-silent-killer/ | 2024-04-18T08:26:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.96333 | 731 |
It’s been a tough month for investors. As of yesterday, roughly half of the stocks in the S&P 500 have fallen into bear markets, with declines greater than 20%. International stock markets have fallen dramatically, with the losses accelerating on the heels of the latest Asian currency “event”.
We’ve seen stuff like this before. There is a worthwhile lesson in considering how a pair of history’s greatest investors have dealt with this kind of thing in the past.
On the surface, Warren Buffett and David Tepper don’t have a lot in common. One runs a diversified conglomerate and reinvests the insurance premiums into both long-term common stock positions and outright acquisitions of great companies. The other manages a hedge fund and aggressively trades in the markets each day.
But they have something in common that is worth considering today: Both Warren Buffett and David Tepper know that volatility is where returns come from and the losses of today set up the outsized gains of tomorrow. They’ve “lost” some money on the way to earning tons of it.
In the summer of 1998, there was a currency crisis that originated in the far east and eventually wound its way around the globe, culminating in the devaluation of the ruble and the blow-up / bailout of the first systemically risky hedge fund in history, Long Term Capital. Both Buffett and Tepper took quite a beating during this so-called “Asian Contagion” event.
As Nick Murray explains, Warren Buffett was down quite a bit that summer.
A very large sum of money, wouldn’t you say? Now what, you ask, does it represent?
It is roughly how much Warren Buffett’s personal shareholdings in his Berkshire Hathaway, Inc. declined in value between July 17 and August 31, 1998. And now for the six billion dollar question. During those forty-five days, how much money did Warren Buffett lose in the stock market?
The answer is, of course, that he didn’t lose anything. Why? That’s simple: he didn’t sell.
Berkshire Hathaway’s “A” shares had dropped in price from roughly $80,000 per share in June to $59,000 by the end of September. These same exact shares just hit a high of $229,000 this year. Buffett knew that while the price may have been changing for his company’s shares, the value that his companies were creating would not be permanently impaired. This allowed him to wait out the ’98 episode rather than reacting to it.
Meanwhile, 1200 miles away from Omaha, David Tepper’s New York-based Appaloosa hedge fund was struggling with the same market environment. He had all the wrong trades on and it went against him severely. As Tepper himself related to us at the SALT Conference, it was a painful episode, despite how quickly things turned around for him:
Tepper tells us his fund has been down 20 percent or more on three different occasions. This includes the episode in 1998, where he was blown out because of the Asian Contagion and subsequent Russian currency devaluation. Tepper was heavily exposed to emerging markets and Russia, the combination crushed the fund. But then he made it all the way back to Appaloosa’s high water mark within 6 months.
“We did it two more times – people started flooding us with money whenever we were down big because counter-intuitively they knew it was good timing to get in.”
The lesson of 1998 for Tepper was that the massive market drawdowns are the biggest opportunities if you can stick it out. He (and his investors) learned to use these episodes to get even more aggressive. It was a tactic he would famously employ ten years later, during the even more difficult post-Lehman meltdown with Appaloosa down more than 20% from its high watermark.
A million dollars invested with David Tepper in the mid-1990’s would be worth more than $250 million today. These gains would not have come easily for the LP, however. As Tepper once described his strategy, “We’re consistently inconsistent. It’s one of the cornerstones of our success.”
There is an equity risk premium in the markets. Over the long term, stock investors can earn average annual returns that are close to 5% above what they’d be able to earn at the risk-free rate. That’s a huge number when compounded over decades.
But it must be earned the hard way – battling through the worst the markets can throw at us. And, as both Buffett and Tepper can attest, its when stocks are treating us the worst that this premium is right around the corner. | <urn:uuid:38ed4b5e-d34f-4c44-9007-4a989df21815> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://thereformedbroker.com/2015/08/13/how-two-of-historys-greatest-investors-deal-with-losses/?curator=thereformedbroker&utm_source=thereformedbroker | 2024-04-18T08:32:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.976846 | 1,007 |
2nd Annual Jobapalooza Hiring Festival Returns To Belmont Park
Summer is right around the corner and Belmont Park is hosting its second annual park-wide hiring festival, Jobapalooza on Friday, April 28th.
The largest hiring fair in Mission Beach will connect job seekers with local employers from a variety of industries, including hospitality, service, ride operators and more.
Job seekers will have the opportunity to meet with employers, learn about available positions, and submit resumes and applications on-site.
Work at the beach this summer!
Belmont Park’s goal is to give everyone coming to the hiring fest a feel for the amazing culture that working at Mission Beach, and specifically at Belmont Park offers its employees. It’s going to be a full day of fun with a DJ, food for potential employees, a swag bag with merchandise from tenants, and more! Showing everyone that “working is better at the beach.”
Belmont Park tenants will have tables and booths setup along the Adrenaline Alley and Food Court areas and interviews will be conducted at Coaster Terrace.
This is an all-park and all-tenant fest, so there will be lots of job opportunities! Last year, Belmont Park hired over 25 employees from the event alone.
All interviewees are asked to bring their resume, IDs and any references.

Liz Roncevic was working a full time retail job in northern New Jersey, but knew she wanted more. Her $10 an hour salary wasn’t cutting it and her manager treated her terribly. She had always had the desire to be a business owner, so in spite of friends advising her against it, she decided to strike out on her own and start her own business. Today her company Bizmap serves over three dozen small businesses in the United States and Europe, helping them with the complexities of digital marketing so that they can focus on what they do best.
Roncevic’s story, as told to The Story Exchange 1,000+ Stories Project:
I started Bizmap with a handful of freelance clients who would regularly use my digital marketing services. At that time I was going through my own professional and personal hardships. I was struggling to support myself and also dealing with family issues that were affecting my personal and work life. At that time, I was working a retail job. I saw that retail was being affected by e-commerce and it was hard to support myself. I knew that, although I didn’t have many professional skills (I had studied fine art in college), retail clothing as a profession was on its way out. But I also knew that I had always had the feeling that I would be a business owner. So I ran with it. After having a terrible experience with a manager who treated me very badly and questioned my ability to do menial tasks, I realized that my future would be similar to hers (and she was clearly bitter and unhappy in retail). The terrible experience motivated me to do more. And the rest is history!
In my opinion, success is not in any way related to money. Success is doing what you love and finding fulfilment and meaning in it. I think we often equate success with a six or seven figure income. But there are many people who have that and are still unhappy. That is not success. Success is doing something, finding your niche, and getting satisfaction from it in some way. You could be making $10 an hour or $300 an hour. It doesn’t matter. It’s an emotional state that is defined by fulfilment and happiness.
One of my biggest successes was leaving my full time retail job because I knew I wanted more. Everyone I spoke to advised me not to leave my full time job, but I knew I was unhappy and couldn’t support myself on a $10 and hour salary living in northern New Jersey. It’s been the best thing I ever did and I’m so grateful I had the strength and independence to take that leap of faith.
My other greatest success was to persevere in spite of a very rough upbringing. I grew up with two alcoholic parents who suffered from addiction and mental illness. I had a lot of my own problems due to the neglect, shame, and lack of support I experienced. For a while, I let the lack of stability and love define me and anger me. Today, I’ve made peace with that part of my past and I’ve developed close relationships despite that struggle. I have a wonderful fiancé and people in my life who are supportive of me, and I couldn’t be happier.
My top challenge has been “being too nice.” I have a natural inclination to help and trust others, and although that is a very good thing, there are times when I shouldn’t try to help when it puts my business and wellbeing in jeopardy. Knowing when to say no and when not to work with a client who is draining and toxic and knowing when not to hire someone who may not be reliable has been a challenge. I have experienced a few bad professional decisions where I took on people who I knew weren’t really putting in the time and effort for my business. What I realized is that it’s human nature to start slacking after a certain point I think. But certain warning signs at the beginning shouldn’t be ignored. So I’m trying to make better hiring decisions, trust my intuition right from the start and not micro manage people. I’ve had more positive experiences with employees since doing this!
My most important role model has been my Aunt Seka. Although we are very different people, she has shown me a lot and I’ve always admired her. My aunt is always kind to others and she is very selfless. She would do anything for anyone and she never has a negative thing to say about it. I don’t think I’ve ever heard her talking badly or negatively about anyone which is a wonderful quality. It’s very humbling to watch her and the way she leads her life and I always have felt inspired to be more like her. | <urn:uuid:31076675-5c8c-4bcf-8d47-ae6c0cd37f1a> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://thestoryexchange.org/liz-roncevic-bizmap/ | 2024-04-18T08:14:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.988552 | 992 |
Move over Valentine’s: Here are 10 activities for Palentine’s and Galentine’s at KCL
Boyfriends and girlfriends are gonna come and go, but this is for life
If there’s one thing I am an expert in, it’s how to thrive and flourish being a single girl in London. The secret is to be able to comfortably do things on your own, however you should also be able to lean back on your friends. Valentine’s Day is the most perfect day to do this.
It’s a celebration of love, and not just romantic love. So extend this love to those you adore the most and embrace February 14th. To help you do this, here are a carefully curated collection of ten activities to do with all of your most treasured pals and gals this V Day in London.
1. Have a Galentine’s (or rather, a Palentine’s)
If you’ve never done so before you need to host your very own “Galentine’s”. The Valentine’s collection in Flying Tiger totally inspired this – the mugs and tealights were too cute for me to bear. You must make sure to add in the coquette cups for an essential pink ribbon. M&S and Lidl also have plenty of love themed food, like heart shaped pizzas and chicken nuggets.
Put all this together, tell your friends to bring something of their own each and, just like that, you have a wholesome evening. I had glowing reviews at my “Galentine’s”, and in true Beauty and the Beast fashion, sent them all home with a single rose each.
2. Movie Night
Valentine’s Day is the ultimate day to binge watch all the greatest romcoms and romance films ever made. You can laugh at the corniness and all the cringe and be glad that you do not have to worry about what silly gift you should buy for your significant other this year.
A personal essential to a collection of V Day films is Valentine’s Day the film. Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner? Unreal.
3. Canvas Painting
Paint a pretty picture. Again, another wholesome activity that is super simple yet incredibly effective. You can buy little canvases and oil paints in most places. Flying Tiger, Hobby Craft, or order on Amazon. They’re not very expensive and it’s a nice little Valentine’s memento.
Who doesn’t love a brunch? The best time to combine Valentine’s and pancake day too. Apple Butter in Covent Garden serve the most magnificent pancakes you have ever seen in your life and they change their toppings most weeks.
Be prepared as they’ve got a Valentine’s edition and everyone is queuing fast outside their doors.
5. Hot girl walk
Obviously a hot girl/ hot guy walk is a reliable, inexpensive but enjoyable V Day activity. You can venture to any park in London you like or even get on the Metropolitan line and go all the way to the end in Chesham. There’s a popular route that takes you through the countryside to Chorleywood – then you can hop back on the train and back to London.
6. Puppy Yoga
Aka, the best thing ever. The Puppy Yoga London studio in Angel was the most wholesome and healing experience.
The puppies are there just for a few hours in the day for their socialisation before they go to their forever home when they are old enough. The session begins with about 30 minutes of beginner’s yoga and then another 30 minutes of puppy playtime. The yoga instructor and the staff are so lovely and you can see they really care about the welfare of the four-legged babies.
7. Cooking Class
As students, we could probably all do with brushing up on our chef skills, because student meals look more like a Kitchen Nightmare than anything cooked up by Carmy in The Bear. With a glass of prosecco in hand, you can make your very own fresh pasta at Eataly. Sounds divine to me.
8. Social Pottery
Social Pottery in Kentish Town is another creative activity with a stellar tone for this Valentine’s Day. You can make and paint animals at the cheapest price of £20, mugs for £22 and then as big as plant pots for £45. Any opportunity to paint pots sounds like a therapeutic and relaxing event to do with your pals.
9. Bring your own board
Similar to the galantines, but a bit more of a group effort where, as the name of it suggests, you each bring a board of something, whether that be cocktails or cheeses. Feel like some guys could really nail this for one another, or just fill cups with the most disgusting combinations of alcohol. Either way, it’s a entertaining evening. TikTok is just the gift that keeps on giving.
10. Happy Hour
Plenty of bars around London are offering up a Valentine’s Day happy hour. Take advantage of the discounts and go and drink all that your single heart desires (no drowning of singledom sorrows allowed).
Hopefully some of these ideas persuaded you to make the most of Valentine’s Day, no matter your relationship status. V Day is just a day of love – no matter what kind of love that is. | <urn:uuid:4cc5b3fc-72fa-4a9d-979f-92adfb57111a> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://thetab.com/uk/kings/2024/02/13/single-on-valentines-day-here-are-ten-activities-for-you-and-your-pals-to-do-in-london-34253 | 2024-04-18T06:54:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.936695 | 1,147 |
No Alpine’s or waterfalls here, but maybe a little smoke on the water, just looking at plants that have a similar theme. So I thought I would start with music, Heavy Metal/Rock music to be precise and for those of you who follow me on Twitter, this will be of no surprise.
Yes, I know I maybe a Head Gardener, but there has been many a time I have brought a plant just because it’s a name of a song a band, or there is some other connection with music…. sad isn’t it! As long you have the right place for the plant I can’t see there is a real problem. But there maybe a few plant snobs out there would say, this is not the way to plan a garden, and they are probably right!
So what’s the best one to start with… well there is only one you can really start with and that is…………
Panicum virgiatum ‘Heavy Metal’
A truly wonderful plant. It has taken me a few years to persuade some of the gardeners to include this in our borders. Panicum virgatum ‘Dallas Blues’ is another great plant we have recently added to our gardens and I must admit, it is a better plant than Heavy Metal.
Where and when Heavy Metal music started is slightly unclear, some say it was with the Rolling Stones, others say with the release of The Kinks song, You Really Got Me. But for the majority of Heavy Metals fans it was in the late sixties with the introduction of bands like Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and Judas Priest.
Penstemon barbatus ‘Iron Maiden’
The name itself, makes you think it will be tough and hardy. I lost all the ones I grew within a year, either I was doing something wrong or it is a complete wimp! Good for cut flowers, that’s if you don’t kill it of beforehand!
As for the band……….
They have to be the most successful band to emerge from the NWOBHM (New wave of British Heavy Metal) genre, which started in the mid 1970’s. And they are still going strong to this very day. Famous for their large stage productions and their mascot, Eddie and also in 1982 they hit a lot of controversy with the release of the Number of the Beast album. In many American states, the album was publicly burned by many religious groups, with reports of people running away from the fires saying the smoke was possessed by the devil.
Petunia Plush ‘Deep Purple’
Not much to say about this one….. it’s a Petunia and it is purple. Sorry can’t get excited about Petunia’s. But every plant has it’s place, with this one preferably the bin!
One of the original Heavy Metal bands formed in 1968 and still performing today. This band has had more line up changes than any other band in history, with what must be now an average of over 90, their main stage prop being a Zimmer frame and Sanatogen being there drug of choice. But listening their music still gives me a buzz.
Phormiun ‘Back in Black’
A small Phormium with dark purple/black leaves, can be grown in sun or partial shade. Another new one for me, we planted our first one this year at Trinity.
For many rock fans, it is the ultimate Heavy Metal album of all time. This was the first album to be released by AC/DC after Bon Scott’s death in February 1980. The band very nearly disbanded, but hired Brian Johnson soon afterwards and the album Back in Black was released on the 25th July 1980.
Polemonium reptans ‘Stairway to Heaven’
A low mound forming plant with a creamy white variegated leaf that turns pink when the weather is cooler. This plant I have yet to grow, but I already have several areas in mind where I would like to plant it……..well every garden has to have a stairway to heaven somewhere.
Very little you need to say about this one apart from listen and enjoy……..
Begonia metallica is a bushy evergreen perennial, it can grow to approx 1 metre in height. They have large dark metallic-green leaves, red veins and has small pale pink flowers in the autumn.
Formed in 1981 in Los Angeles, they have gone on to be one of the biggest metal/thrash metal bands in history. Still going strong to this day, and recently was part of the Big Four tour alongside Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax.
Too many favourites, had to have more than one link…….
Lathyrus odoratus ‘Brian Clough’
A slightly scented Sweet Pea that has coral pink flowers and can reach over 6 ft tall.
Alright, so Brian Clough has nothing to do with music, and to be honest his views on Heavy Metal would have been interesting to say the least. But the man was a total legend, I had to include him somewhere…….
Oh, I nearly forgot…………….
One year on…..
It’s now over a year ago since I started these Rock Garden blogs….and they seem to be very popular. All done as a bit of fun, but many have said how informative they find them (whilst drunk that is) and a good way of remembering plant names. So you may get a few more of them in the future…sorry!
The added extra….
If I had known about this plant a year ago, it certainly would have made it into the blog, first time round.
Sansevieria ‘Twisted Sister’
A short and twisted plant that can be grown both indoors and outdoors. It is a plant that thrives on neglect.
Twisted Sister are a Glam Heavy Metal band from New York. Formed in 1972 and still going strong today, they are the kings of cheesy metal; along with their charismatic front….. Dee Snider. I absolutely love this band 🙂
One more for luck….. | <urn:uuid:f4ea39fc-c0ba-42bd-bd00-7c1c366870f5> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://thetattooedgardener.com/the-rock-garden | 2024-04-18T08:26:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.969291 | 1,287 |

Saugatuck might be a small town in Michigan, but its 12 miles of shore and six Michigan beaches bear a striking resemblance to the Mediterranean coastline. The town is heavy on the art scene, and knows how to cook delectable food and brew fine wines. We find it one of the most romantic places to visit in Michigan, especially in the summer when the whole town comes alive!
If you want to see the artistic hub of the town, visit the artists’ favorite Saugatuck Center for the Arts, Waterfront Invitational Art Fair, and Ox-Bow School of Art.
Make sure to get some memorable pictures at the Peterson Mill and wander along Butler Street.
Charlevoix is your classic American small town along the beautiful Lake Michigan. It offers the best of both worlds with the nature surrounding it and the whimsical man-made wonders within it.
For a fairytale experience, visit the Mushroom Houses — also known as the Hobbit Houses — designed by architect Earl Young. Where the mushroom houses will make you feel like a hobbit, the Castle Farms will have you feeling like royalty.

It’s hard to pick which Michigan small town gives the best access to the beach, but South Haven is somewhere in the lead. This lakefront small town, with its lighthouses, piers, dune-filled beaches, manicured lawns, and beach activities is the byword of a small American beach town.
You can enjoy a majestic view of the water from the South Haven Lighthouse or bike through the trail at Kal Haven and take in the breathtaking views along the path.
As you enjoy one of the many beaches of this small town, don’t miss out on the Bumbleberry Acres to get up and close to the town’s farming side.

The crystal-clear waters, widespread beaches, dunes, thick green forests, waterfalls, and psychedelic sandstones ensure endless adventures.

The small town of St. Joseph is a well-crafted oyster for summer tourists. From miles of soft sandy beaches to fine dining experiences, this town seems to have everything needed for that breezy summer where new stories unfold.
When you are in St. Joseph, your itinerary must include the highlights of the town such as sailing, a game — or more — of volleyball, a visit to the lighthouse, and a day spent in wineries and craft breweries.
The small Michigan town of Frankenmuth remains a hotspot all year.

Just an hour’s drive from hustling and bustling Detroit, Tecumseh offers a striking contrast. The town of Tecumseh is small, relaxing, and chock full of attractions. A visit to Tecumseh must always begin with a stroll down the Art Trail, a free-of-cost outdoor exhibit that showcases the artistic talents of the locals.
If you love cars and bikes, you will have a grand time at the Classic Car and Bike Show which brings all the gearheads together. Readers and fairytale enthusiasts may skip the car show but never turn down the opportunity to embark on the Fairy Door Adventure.
The name of this small Michigan town is a big giveaway that it was established by Dutch settlers. Decades later, Holland still maintains a European flavor, evident from the towering Dutch Windmill on Windmill Island.
If you want to tap into the history of this town, what could be a better place than the Cappon and Settlers Houses, where the first settlers resided? Make sure you write down DeGraaf Nature Center in your itinerary so you can lose yourself in the 18-acre nature preserve.
Most importantly, leave ample time to enjoy the beautiful beaches of Little Holland in Michigan.
Grand Haven is one of the best small towns in Michigan with a grand view of the coast, and it embodies the essence of a charming beachside community.
The most buzzworthy spots in Grand Haven include the two lighthouses, the Musical Fountain, and the subliminally breathtaking Rosy Mound Natural Area.
Of course, we can’t forget the beautiful widespread beaches that offer the most mesmerizing view of the setting sun.
It’s the perfect beach destination in Michigan and is a popular place to head during a Michigan summer weekend. After spending your day at the beach or enjoying the famous Grand Haven Coast Guard Festival make sure to walk downtown and eat at Snug Harbor, one of the best Grand Haven restaurants.
Small but mighty, Traverse City is known across the country for being the Cherry Capital of the world. This small Michigan town perfectly encapsulates the cute and uplifting ambiance with its beauty.
The town is brimming with upscale eateries, wineries, cafes, and microbreweries.

Be sure to witness the area yourself by visiting the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, Logan’s Landing, and the Grand Traverse Bay.
A very small town with only 500 residents, Leland has a lot to offer visitors. A trip to this quiet and quaint town is incomplete without visiting Fishtown, a fishing village with an impressive collection of shanties, charter boats, tugs, etc.
The town is also a walking distance from the exceptional Van’s Beach, we say exceptional because this beach has nearly white sand.

Schools have existed across cultures and throughout time; the knowledge they transmit leads us out of childhood, shapes our values and world view, and grooms us for citizenship. Schools help us build ego strength and adapt to cultural norms, the goal of the first half of life and the first stage of individuation. School experiences also wound us, as Jung recalled in his memoir. Collective schooling instills the uniformity needed for a cohesive culture, but individual uniqueness may be lost. Individualized education—including home life–can enhance personal uniqueness or compensate for special needs, but lacks universal principles and methods. Education by example allows the influence of the unconscious to be most openly included—whereas in other methods its power may be unacknowledged or denied. Jung says, “I would say, in the light of my own experience, that an understanding heart is everything in a teacher, and cannot be esteemed highly enough.”
Here’s the dream we analyzed:
“I am participating in some sort of arts class where most of the students are younger and less experienced than me. We are assigned a project where two art works are placed on each of the four walls. The teacher/facilitator puts on some very interesting music that I like and the students/participants are to dance around the space and interact with the art works in a semi-choreographed dance. There are art materials available if they choose to add to the works, or they can choose to just interact through semi-choreographed dance (pointing, touching, etc.) I make a conscious and intentional choice to sit to one side and observe and absorb rather than to actively participate. During the dance, only one of the participants, a black female, chooses to use the art materials to make changes to one of the paintings. She is frustrated when her colored pencil breaks almost immediately so all she can manage to do is sign her name to the painting. The song ends and the teacher/facilitator immediately expresses her frustration that I did not actively participate. She treats me as though I am a hostile, unwilling participant who chose not to participate out of fear, which is simply not true. She refuses to understand or believe that I had made a conscious and intentional choice. I offer multiple times to explain myself and she refuses to hear me, saying instead that we will move on to the next activity and I better participate this time. I become quite agitated and angry that she won’t listen to me, and say so: “Since you aren’t listening to me, I’m going to FORCE YOU TO!!” I then tell my story angrily in such a way that she and the class have no choice but to listen. I tell how in my readings and studies, I’ve come across two stories that are the reason I’ve done what I’ve done. The first is a story of a man who lived in Greenwich Village in the 70s or 80s who would throw huge, elaborate parties in his apartment, inviting 20-40 intentionally cultivated younger men. He would provide the food and the drugs and the music. Decades later, multiple people who had attended these legendary parties would all describe the scene the same way: that this man would never actively participate, but only sit in the middle and observe and absorb the goings-on. “Don’t you understand,” I scream to my classmates/participants and the teacher/facilitator, “You can’t observe and absorb if you’re focused on participating!!! There was a second illustrative story but I’m too worked up right now to remember what it was!”

Born 1969 in Lancashire, Great Britain, lives in Brighton.
The art of Keith Tyson seems to want to encompass the entire cosmos: the natural sciences, philosophy, mathematics, aesthetics, and science fiction. To this end, it uses speech as its starting point. Tyson first gained attention in the 1990s with his “Artmachine”, a combination of computer logarithms and books into which he entered various words and similar concepts. He then converted the randomly created word combinations into drawings, paintings, and objects that he exhibited under the title From the Machine. He collected more than 14,000 such ideas, of which only a fraction has been exhibited.
There followed Tyson’s History Paintings, which consist of red, green and black stripes whose order was randomly determined by a roulette wheel. The names of the paintings—for example, St. Petersburg 1905—referred to famous casinos. In another set of paintings, made between 2005 and 2008, Tyson left everything up to chance. He covered aluminum panels with paints, pigments and chemicals, and exposed them to various temperatures, lighting, and mechanical influences. The results are color paintings reminiscent of fantastical landscapes, psychedelic patterns, or expressionist abstract paintings. And because they were created by nature, he called them The Nature Paintings.
Tyson’s most noteworthy work so far is his Large Field Array at New York’s Pace Gallery in 2006. In this installation, he used a modular system to fill a gallery and its walls with a diverse range of objects, including a copy of millionaire Donald Trump’s wedding cake, the logo of the London Underground, a chair in the form of a skeleton, or a lunch designed for space flights. This maze of Pop cosmology was open to any associations.
Tyson’s exhibition at the London headquarters of Deutsche Bank, 12 Harmonics, was no less spectacular. The cosmology of the 21st century plays out on several aluminum panels 3.5 x 2 meters in size. Each panel is assigned, as Tyson describes it, a certain “numerical essence”. On the first we can see the sun, while the last depicts the moon. Six are dedicated to the day, six to the night, and the seasons of the year are addressed as well. The panels contain everything, from the chemical formula for hydrogen and the famous smoking cowboy from Las Vegas all the way to Michelangelo Caravaggio’s Amor—everything that, as Tyson says, contributes to “a joyful visual experience”. Few artists today are capable of encompassing the entire world with such an almost Renaissance generosity. | <urn:uuid:4cc11367-9ac4-46ff-a958-e8f8027e6a64> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://tichyocean.com/tyson | 2024-04-18T06:41:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.956033 | 544 |
You know you’re a geek when one of the best parts of your day in Las Vegas is seeing a new hot new keyboard.
Art Lebedev is showing the real, non-vaporware, made-of-actual-atoms Optimus Maximus keyboard, on which each key houses a tiny OLED display. When you switch your layout from QWERTY to Dvorak, all the keycaps change with it. Perhaps more usefully, special function keys and the standard Fkeys can display application icons to remind you what they’re all going to do.
At $460 a pop, the Optimus Maximus is a splurge for most people, but I can see how it would be useful for public computers that are used by an international group – I’ve been to dozens of conferences where the participants had to mentally remap a physical keyboard to their home country’s layout. I suspect it’s also just a matter of time before some lifehack Web site comes up with a method to make this a fantastic productivity tool; just think of what you could do with AppleScript, macros, and a keyboard that dynamically changes functions and shows you how it’s changing to automate your workflow into one or two keystrokes.
There are some fascinating power accessories here at CES. Powercast is demoing various methods of transmitting power without wires, which would be great for charging cell phones and laptops without plugs. Aqua PowerSystem is looking for American distributors for their batteries that run on water. Any kind of water: “It will work with alcoholic drink, beer, cola, coffee, and even saliva or urine in an emergency situation without water.” Apparently fuel cells are also being demonstrated elsewhere on the show floor; finding them is on my to-do list.
The winner for Best Geordi LaForge iPod accessory is i-Vue’s video eyewear. A decent display and built-in headphones make this a killer toy for watching movies on a plane, but text starts to break down at greater than 800 by 600 resolutions, so it won’t do much for portable productivity.
It’s cool, but is it useful? SanDisk’s Cruzer Titanium Plus is a USB flash drive with 4 GB of memory, with a twist. The gimmick is that everything you put on the drive is also uploaded simultaneously to online storage. (Through your computer; the drive itself doesn’t go online.) It’s good to have a redundancy plan, but I can’t think of a use where I’d need to have a file in three places, one of them being on my person – if I’m physically carrying a file, that’s because I’ve decided I won’t have online access to it. The drive costs $60, and the online storage costs $30 per year after six months for free. (I have to say, when you’re
carrying around about 20 GB in free flash storage from exhibitors, it lowers your opinion of the market value.)
Another neat idea – I think – comes from PhoneCasting, which lets you record a podcast or audio blog entry by phone, simplifying what can be a tricky process. PhoneCasting also assigns a phone number to every podcast it records, enabling your listeners (all 3.25 billion worldwide cell phone subscribers, according to PhoneCasting’s rather breathless press release, which you can hear at 702-553-2764) to call up and hear your latest podcast over the phone. There are SMS messages to alert people to the existence of a podcast show, and PhoneCasting can insert radio-style ads into your podcast so you can generate revenue as well. How many
people want to listen to podcasts via long and likely expensive phone calls? I can’t criticize too much, having accidentally left my iPod nano at home, but it seems questionable. Podcasters receive 250 MB of storage for free and presumably pay for extra; the cost, if any, to those making the calls is oddly not mentioned in my press kit or on the home page. | <urn:uuid:06d6823c-8143-4ddf-9171-4acadd683c1e> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://tidbits.com/2008/01/09/ces-2008-day-1-keyboards-power-eyewear-and-more/ | 2024-04-18T08:04:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.939175 | 859 |
Finally got to sit down at an internet cafe, and while they don’t have new enough computers to take a thumb drive, and can’t set me up with an Ethernet connection, there’s nothing to stop me from reading the laptop screen and retyping my blog entries into their computers. So that’s exactly what I’m doing. Please go back and read the earlier entries if you get a chance.
Nothing new happening today. I’m going to the goldsmith’s later, will update when I see more.
Passed some kids digging out a rathole and killing rats on the way – they had one dead one already and looked very pleased with themselves. I hope it wasn’t for dinner…although I’m told rats are eaten here, and I’ll probably try it before I go. | <urn:uuid:6aacc2d9-ae4d-452e-ba80-01fb4e0391f9> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://tienchiu.com/2007/01/finally-got-to-an-internet-cafe/ | 2024-04-18T06:50:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.942717 | 182 |
You may recall that I’d been mulling over where to take my work next – primarily, whether to try selling my work in high-end galleries, establishing a “name” for myself as an artist and hopefully being collected by museums someday. (As opposed to continuing to show my work in the guild/craft world, which is mostly separate from the gallery/museum circuit.)
I’ve thought about this the last few days, after seeing my dress in the museum exhibit and after a long talk with the insightful Bhakti Ziek. I think I’ve decided not to try selling my work to galleries (or anywhere else, for that matter), and not to worry much about developing the kind of reputation that makes collectors chase after you. It’s not because I don’t think I could succeed in that world – my work is solid, I’m good at networking, and I’m enough of a businessperson to be able to figure out what sells and tailor my work accordingly. Randy Darwall told me once that I could be a success on the gallery circuit within a few years, and I think he’s right.
But, as they say, “Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should.” What would be the purpose of selling to galleries and collectors? I don’t need the money; my day job pays really well, far better than any living I could make as an artist, and doesn’t interfere much with my creative life. I might be able to scrape out a living from my art if I decided to live elsewhere, but I like the Bay Area, I have a mortgage to feed, and it’s nice being able to save money towards retirement – all of which are much harder to do if I were trying to make a living off my art.
And, if I were trying to sell to galleries, I’d have to tailor my work to the things that are likely to sell, and which would bring in enough money-for-time-spent to be worthwhile – which would crimp my artistic freedom.
So why would I want to sell to galleries? The only thing I can think of is prestige – the ability to say that my work is being collected by so-and-so, and the satisfaction of seeing pieces sell for hundreds or thousands of dollars. And while that would be gratifying on quite a few levels, I don’t think it’s healthy – it’s chasing after what Buddhism calls maya, the illusion.
I’ve had an interesting life as a weaver. Somehow, in the last six years, I’ve gone from being a rank beginner to being a minor rock star – complete strangers come up to me at weaving shows to tell me how much they like my work (or my blog), guilds ask me to speak to them, people go out of their way to attend shows just to meet me. This never ceases to amaze me, because I don’t think of myself as anyone special – in my mind, I’m still that rank beginner, I just know a bit more than when I started, and my work is a bit more ambitious. I don’t see myself as being in possession of any magical knowledge, and I’m certainly not a god, so it always surprises me when someone comes up to me and says how much they admire me or my work. Because I know how much left there is to know, and I know only a tiny fraction of it! The world is much, much bigger than me.
But, as I keep reaching artistic milestones (having my work published for the first time, having it featured on the cover of Handwoven, getting it into a museum), I keep realizing how little they mean. Yes, it’s incredibly gratifying, and I’m sure I’ll be over the moon for at least a month after seeing my work on display at the museum. But you know what? I woke up the morning after the reception, and my work wasn’t one bit better than it was after getting my piece into the exhibit. I hadn’t acquired new skills, my work hadn’t suddenly leaped in quality, and I certainly didn’t have deeper artistic insights. So while it was fun getting the recognition, it’s not something I want to chase after. Because in the end, for me anyway, it’s not about being famous and getting collected: it’s about the work, and the work doesn’t care about my reputation one whit. It cares about the skill and care I put into it; it cares about my design knowledge; it cares about the time and effort I lavish on getting it Just Right. But my reputation? Not even one teeny bit.
So, then, why would I want to sell to galleries and collectors? I really can’t think of a reason. It’s definitely not a “bonus”; I can’t just make things and then dump them into galleries. Getting going with high-end galleries requires networking, an awareness of the market, and, well, effort – and if I don’t need the money and it won’t improve my art, why do it at all? The one thing I would like to do is to share my work with others, and, as Bhakti pointed out, there are other venues for doing so.
So in the end, I’ve reached a conclusion that should really have been obvious from the start: I’d rather stick with making my work for myself. For me, it’s not about the glory, but the work – and the work just doesn’t care. | <urn:uuid:21d13dbf-deef-45b9-beb4-1fc2327bac01> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://tienchiu.com/2013/04/its-about-the-work/ | 2024-04-18T07:01:22Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.976815 | 1,214 |
A lottery is a form of gambling where people purchase tickets in order to win prizes. The numbers are drawn randomly to determine the winners. Lotteries are often used to raise money for a specific project or cause. They are also used to make decisions about public services such as subsidized housing or kindergarten placements. There are many different types of lotteries, including sports and financial ones.
A lot of people believe that winning the lottery is a matter of luck, but it is actually a game of chance. There are a few things you can do to improve your chances of winning the lottery, including purchasing more tickets and making careful choices about the numbers you choose. For example, you should avoid selecting numbers that are close together or those that end with the same digit, as these are more likely to be chosen by others. Also, you should avoid selecting a sequence of numbers that holds sentimental value for you, such as those associated with your birthday or other special events. Instead, try to cover a wide range of numbers from the available pool.
Some people use the lottery as a way to increase their wealth, but they should be aware that it is not foolproof. It is not unusual for a person to lose some of their winnings, so it is important to plan carefully and have a backup fund in case of a loss. It is also a good idea to spend some of your winnings on charitable causes. This is not only the right thing to do from a societal perspective, but it will also help you feel more fulfilled as a person.
The odds of winning a lottery depend on how many tickets are sold and the number of players. The more participants, the lower the odds. This is because the total number of possible combinations becomes higher. There are some ways to improve your odds, including playing smaller games with fewer numbers and choosing random numbers that have not been picked before. However, the chances of winning are still very low.
Most states regulate the lottery to ensure that it is played fairly. In addition, most states have laws that prohibit the sale of tickets to minors and certain groups of people. This is designed to prevent exploitation and protect the interests of the lottery’s players.
There are a number of different ways to play the lottery, including online and through mobile apps. Some of these apps allow you to buy tickets for multiple games at once, which can increase your chances of winning. Some of them even offer a free trial period so you can see if they are worth the investment before you commit to a subscription.
Many people like to gamble, and the lottery is one of the most popular forms of gambling. It can be addictive, but there are some tips to help you avoid pitfalls. You should never play for more than you can afford to lose, and you should always use proven strategies when betting. | <urn:uuid:aac3af77-df2d-4f47-bafa-e5a3100e8a68> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://tierranuevacocoa.com/what-is-a-lottery-8/ | 2024-04-18T06:41:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.978119 | 573 |

Dear Integral Meditators,
Meditation and the development of expanded states of awareness always needs to go hand in glove with psychological development and maturity. This weeks article looks at one method I use in my coaching practice to help people (and myself, I do use it myself!) to develop a more mature psychological vision of what they are experiencing.
November meditation workshops are mainly focused around Zen practice from an integrated point of view on Tuesday evening 19th December we have An Introduction to Meditation from the Perspective of Zen Level 1 and then on Sunday 24th November we have Zen Meditation Workshop Level 2: Journeying Deeper into the Path of Zen , It you are able to make it , see you there!
Finally, here are the various free audio meditations that I have posted on the IMA website during the month of October in case you missed any of them: Dropping Your Conceptual Leaves, Meditating With Your Shadow Self, Transforming Your Stress,Finding a Place Beyond Ordinary Happiness and Suffering.
Yours in the spirit of a more integrated vision of life,
Upcoming Courses at Integral Meditation Asia:
Sunday October 27th, 9.30am-12.30pm – Finding Freedom From What Holds You Back in Life: Practical Meditations And Techniques For Working With your Shadow-Self – A Three Hour Workshop
Tuesday 19th November, 7.30-9.30pm – An Introduction to Meditation from the Perspective of Zen Level 1
Sunday 24th November, 9am-1pm – Zen Meditation Workshop Level 2: Journeying Deeper into the Path of Zen
Sunday December 1st – Shadow Meditation Level 2: Developing the Language of Your Shadow Self
An alternative title to this article might be “How do you coach psychological insight and growth?” In my coaching with people, one of the main ways in which I help people to increase the quality and power of their mind is to help them increase the number of points of view from which they are able to look at their life circumstances and challenges.
Normally we think about out life challenges mostly from one point of view – our own, occasionally interspersed with how one of the other people in the situation might be feeling or thinking. Not surprisingly, as a result our vision of our life and the circumstances remains very limited and partial.
The aim of the exercise that I will be explaining below is to turn the way you view a life challenge from a partial vision to a more integral or integrated vision. An integral vision is simply one that is able to take many perspectives on the situation, each of which will reveal a certain part of the REALITY of what is going on. The more points of view you can take in, the more “whole” and integrated your understanding of what is happening will be.
Developing an Integrated Vision on One of Your Life Challenges:
This is an exercise that I sometimes do with clients. You can simply do it mentally as you are reading through it if you like, but it really starts to take off as an mind development tool when you do it as a written exercise.
Begin by selecting a situation or life challenge that you wish to process. Think of it clearly in your mind, or write it down.
Then ask yourself these eight questions, write freely and quickly without over-analyzing:
1) What is my personal experience and perspective of the situation?
2) How might the other person/peoples involved be experiencing the situation?
3) What does a 3rd person or objective experience of the situation look like?
4) What might a “spiritual” (spiritual in your own terms) interpretation of the situation be?
5) Describe the situation in purely sensory and physical terms
6) How would you describe the principle feelings involved?
7) What are the economics of the situation?
8) Of the people involved, who is looking to gain what from the situation?
Now consider what you have written or thought about with each question, considering each one in turn.
Then, finally ask:
9) Taking into account all of the perspectives I have considered above, what might be the wisest way to positively move forward in the situation right now?
The first eight questions are designed to give you an integral or fully rounded vision, or set of perspectives about what is actually happening in your life challenge. This gives you your “integral vision”. With all the insights you have gained, question eight then asks you to make the all important step of turning your vision into action.

The first week of the Fringe is over already. And its accolade as the world’s largest arts festival seems pretty safe. Organisers say ticket sales in the first weekend broke all records.
Over 50,000 performances of more than 3,500 different shows. It’s a remarkable achievement to recover from the pandemic which closed our city three years ago. I salute those who have worked so tirelessly to make it happen facing down challenges of labour shortages, rising costs, the cost-of-living squeeze on audience budgets and the turmoil in short-term rented accommodation.
But there are problems ahead and now that we’re over the existential threat we should start thinking about them. The first is getting this city to love its festival in a way other cities love theirs. Many local people revel in the weird and wonderful array of performances on their doorstep. But many see the festival as something that is done to them, not for them.
The Fringe started in the city centre, it’s where most of the venues were. But over the decades it has tried to expand to other parts of the city. This year it looks as if there’s been an artistic implosion into the Old Town. The western end of my constituency is a big rectangle bordered by Princes Street to the north and Melville Drive to the south. Lothian Road sets the western border and the Pleasance/St Leonards the eastern. It’s less than one square mile. And it hosts 90 per cent of the Fringe.
As I turned onto London Road from Leith Walk on Wednesday it was as if the Fringe – and the other festivals – stopped. Going out past Meadowbank and Jock’s Lodge and down to Porty you would have no clue there was anything on. In part this is because the journey back has been cautious. The Fringe is a commercial world. Venues have to sell tickets or drink or both with no public subsidy. So, people look to what they know. And what they know is the Old Town.
Back in 1998 the Fringe programme boasted 168 venues compared to today’s 248. Still the world’s largest arts festival then. 25 years ago, 12 of those Fringe venues were in Leith. Today, even with the new tram link, there are fewer. Not good.
An accommodation crisis has been postponed. We should use that to plan a series of exemptions for the artists that make the festivals. I strongly support regulation of short-term lets. But we mustn’t throw the baby out with the bath water.
Someone offering festival lodging in a spare room in their own home shouldn’t be entrapped in bureaucracy. And we could improve regulation by creating a not-for-profit lettings agency – backed by the city, festivals and government. Owners using that agency could do so without the need for licenses or permissions for the period of the festival.
There’s more. Much more, from creating training and employment for local people to using the festival to enhance our city’s schools. It does of course take two to tango. So, much as I exhort those running the festivals to embrace the city that hosts it, we in turn need to make it our own. Perhaps for starters the council could put up a sign saying welcome to festival city – they did 30 years ago. | <urn:uuid:1dd31af4-2a6d-4bbe-b3c4-835b4d0dc9b1> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://tommysheppardmp.scot/tag/short-term-lets/ | 2024-04-18T08:09:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.963216 | 703 |

A tragic event took place in Mexico not too long ago: two opposing gangs opened fire on each other inside a restaurant, causing multiple diners to lose their lives and dozens to sustain injuries. Anjali Ryot, a technologist and travel blogger of Indian ancestry, was one of the people who ended up being killed.
Who Was Anjali Ryot
Anjali Ryot, a computer programmer and travel blogger who now makes her home in the state of California, was born and raised in the region of Himachal Pradesh in India. She worked at LinkedIn, where she held the post of senior reliability engineer, and she has been actively affiliated with the organisation since the month of July.
Before that, she worked for Yahoo as a senior reliability and service engineer for a period of five years. During that time, she held the position.
The engineer’s passion for seeing the world led her to launch her own channel on YouTube, which is only for the purpose of recording her travel experiences. Her Instagram account currently has a staggering number of 42,500 followers, which is evidence that she has a sizable number of devoted followers.
She Had A Passion To Travel
Her passion for discovery took her all over the world, to places like Italy, Puerto Rico, the Philippines, Hawaii, and California, to name just a few of the most stunning places she’s ever seen (her current place of residence). Her Instagram handle reads “never stop dreaming”.
When Did The Event Took Place
The event happened on October 18 at about 10:30 p.m. on the terrace of the LA Malquerida Restaurant in Tulum, Mexico. The location was in Mexico. Anjali and four other persons from another nation were sitting on the patio of the restaurant when four guys armed with assault weapons began firing at the table that was near to them.
If one accepts the accusations, one must also agree that Anjali was one of the people who was shot.
About the Gun Fire Incident
As a direct consequence of the ensuing gunfire, the foreigners were injured. On the spot, Anjali and a German woman both lost their lives, and three other people, two of them were from Germany and the other from the Netherlands, were hurt. Anjali and the German woman both died at the scene. In the hospice where they are currently residing, medical professionals are seeing to their wounds and providing therapy for them. It was found out that Jennifer Henzold was the other woman who passed tragically, and her name was exposed.
The authorities soon pointed to a conflict between the criminals as the cause of the incident shortly after it took place. The perpetrators were identified as two rival organisations who handle drug sales in the region. Because of the way things are currently standing in Mexico, many people consider it to be the epicentre of the global drug trade and trafficking.
As soon as the members of the deceased’s family heard the news, they immediately began crying in anguish. They have never been able to come to grips with the fact that their beloved daughter departed tragically under conditions that were completely unexpected.
Drug Trafficking Organization in Mexico
Over thousands of people are killed on a yearly basis as a result of the violent drug war that is currently raging in Mexico. The power trafficking organisations are engaged in a fierce competitive environment in which they seek to establish their proximity to the drug market and their level of influence inside it. These cartels have direct command over a substantial area of the country and continue to expand their influence.
According to the reports that have been published in the media, they not only have a position of influence within the country’s internal politics but are also substantially to responsible for the corruption that can be found in the political institutions of the country. The fact that drug cartels are suspected of being involved in a number of kidnappings, killings, and other crimes causes the general inhabitants of the area in which they operate to feel a tremendous deal of fear.
The United States government is of the opinion that a Mexican drug cartel known as the Sinaloa Cartel is one of the most powerful and influential drug trafficking groups in the entire world. | <urn:uuid:12b3f3d8-7825-4684-8c66-bac25c2ea98d> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://trendingnewsbuzz.com/anjali-ryot/ | 2024-04-18T08:33:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.985715 | 856 |
Staring at the direction where the forest and hospital were, I couldn’t stop worrying about my mate.
Yes, I knew he was there undergoing a dangerous double agent and I also knew he could do this seemingly impossible thing, but I couldn’t help but worry about him.
“The hospital hasn’t been accepting patients lately, saying that the inpatient ward is full or whatever the reason is for refusing all those who need help there” My father, Alpha Blake told me as he stood beside me in front of my tent, standing gazing at the horizon “Are you alright?” he added asking me.
I looked back at him and gave a small smile as I nodded.
“That doctor, has anyone seen her again?” I asked him.
He shook his head “Many say she is nowhere to be seen, neither in the hospital nor anywhere else” He said, yes, we put some people to guard at the hospital but it has been a long time since everyone said that we could not see her anywhere, even my father who pretended to ask about the whereabouts of his son, Titus, also said that the older brother was still accompanying his younger sister in the hospitalisation room, not knowing that their lie had been exposed and I was no longer there, but why did they continue to tell that lie?
Could it be what they always said about those patients they hurt? That they were still under treatment and that the treatment didn’t work so it drove the waiting mates crazy?
“Should we raid the hospital?” I asked the old man beside me who had wrapped his arm around my shoulder for support.
“Melissa said the sisters appear to be brainwashed, they don’t realise what they’re doing, we’re just going to hurt innocent people” My father replied and made me let out a long sigh of annoyance.
‘Doctor Wendy knows what she’s doing and has foreseen everything, she knows we can’t possibly hurt those nurses‘ Destine added and sounded very upset as well. I stared at the direction where the three stoves and cauldrons were lit, the place where Melissa was openly trying to make potions.
Yes, everyone knew that she was a white witch and harmless, but many were still reluctant to help her with/open arms, and only certain people stood by her side and helped her, like Alexa who was my loyal guard, she understood that what the white witch was doing was so important that she left my complete protection to Kurt, who never left me alone.
Following the direction of my gaze, my father sighed when he saw Melissa and Alexa there “Are you sure she’s not dangerous?” He asked and looked at them. I just smiled, understanding the werewolf’s dislike for witches due to the damage

done by Pearl, but I knew that Melissa had her heart in the right place.
So I nodded my head confidently “Yes, she is learning how to make potions so that all those who were enchanted by the evil doctor can be awakened” I said softly while sending a smile towards her who was currently waving a hand to
“Do you believe in the ghost of the doctor’s former mate?” My father asked again and I nodded my head while looking into his eyes.
Yes, maybe for people who can’t see Abel, hearing stories about him is unbelievable, but I am a person who can see him so I know that everything is true. “Yes, father” I answered firmly “Because I can see the ghostly figure named Abel” I added which made my father widen his eyes in surprise at my answer.

Laughing, I patted him on the back before named Melissa who was busy with her potion. As I walked closer I realised that Abel was there and raised a surprised eyebrow at Alexa’s reaction as if she was afraid to approach the ghostly figure, could it be….. “Can you see Abel, Alexa?” I asked my guard who quickly glanced in my direction before nodding her head slowly.
Melissa snorted “She can take on scary enemies but is afraid of ghosts that can’t hurt mortals” Melissa said with a roll of her eyes and made me think amused.
“Abel is the most handsome and kind ghost you could ever see, Alexa” I said and Abel just laughed at me “What?” I asked the ghost.
He just nodded his head “You’re right, my figure is not far from my human figure, if only you could see the horrible figures of the ghosts, you could also understand why your queen finds me handsome” He said casually and I just nodded my head. Melissa grumbled “This is the hardest potion Abel, I don’t understand how you who is only a human can make it”
I looked at the cauldron that was currently bubbling and green.
“What are you making? And how did you get here, outside the forest?” I asked curiously.
Melissa glanced at me and flopped down to sit on the floor “I took a part of the forest to make this area seem like a part of the forest so Abel can be here” She answered with a tired sigh and the ghost approached the stirring potion before. nodding her head.
“It’s almost done, it only needs one more full moon night” the ghost said as he continued to stare at the potion in front of him before looking back at me “It’s a potion to wake up all the disoriented nurses, so we can enter and search the hospital without any innocent victims” he explained to me as if he knew what I was going to ask him.
“I see” I said silently and glad that it seems like I have the luck I need coming from them.
The Alpha Kings Fated Mate
This must end soon so that there are no more victims and my eyes can be with me again.
Doctor Wendy was nowhere to be seen, they also said that no one had seen my mate either.
Where are they?
How could they disappear without a trace and no one knows? | <urn:uuid:a270981f-5c34-4fbe-afaf-6a500873b8e1> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://trends302.com/the-alpha-kings-fated-mate-by-yui-ismutomo-chapter-126/ | 2024-04-18T07:51:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.988985 | 1,328 |
A video clip published by former Israeli Foreign Ministry official Noga Arbel on her page on the “X” platform yesterday, Saturday, documented her demand in the Israeli Knesset to destroy the UN organization.
Erbil said in an intervention in the Knesset Foreign Affairs Committee: “Out of 6.7 million Palestinians, 5.9 million were registered with UNRWA, including the poor Palestinians who lived in Jerusalem in 1948, and UNRWA has the intention of re-entering these millions of refugees into Israel again.”
This has GOT to be one of the most ridiculous posts ever.
It is repeating something completely TRUE, that I’ve repeatedly said myself, that have been discussed at LEGTH on X two month ago (and wasn’t breaking news then since I SAID IT MYSELF time and again).
But its somehow… https://t.co/kJgmxF70Ho
— Noga Arbell (@NogaArbell) January 7, 2024
She added: “Any refugee can register himself with UNRWA via phone, and the Palestinian Authority is not the one providing services to all these people. Rather, UNRWA's services reach terrorists in Gaza.”
She added, “UNRWA is teaching the Palestinians to believe that the genocide of the Jews and the destruction of Israel is the only way for them to return to their country and live. UNRWA was the educational seed for the evil committed against us, and for this reason UNRWA must leave.”
She continued: “UNRWA creates terrorists and supports terrorism, and has become a source of much violence in Israel, and for this reason it must cease to exist. It will not be possible to win the war if we do not destroy UNRWA… This destruction must begin immediately.”
Noga Arbel is a researcher in political strategy, and a former official at the Political Research Center of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
What is UNRWA?
In November 1948, it was established United nations An organization called “United Nations Relief for Palestine Refugees” to provide aid to Palestinian refugees and coordinate services provided to them by non-governmental organizations and some other United Nations organizations.
On December 8, 1949, pursuant to General Assembly Resolution No. 302, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) was established as a temporary ad hoc agency, with its mandate renewed every three years until a just solution to the Palestinian issue is found.
UNRWA began its operations on May 1, 1950, and assumed the functions of the previously established relief agency, and received the records of Palestinian refugees from International Committee of the Red Cross.
The agency has two main headquarters in the Austrian capital, Vienna, and the Jordanian capital, Amman, and provides its services to approximately 5 million people, while the number of students enrolled in its schools reaches 476,000, and the number of refugees who receive support through the social safety net is about 283,000.
The organization also treats tens of thousands of patients in 139 health centers in addition to 117 dental clinics.
The organization provides food to more than 1,200,000 people Refugee Palestinians throughout the Middle East, in addition to providing safe housing for more than 1,300,000 refugees in 58 official refugee camps.
For 10 years, UNRWA has been facing a funding shortfall, and every year the shortfall is carried over to the next year, despite sending calls and appeals at the beginning of each year to raise $1.6 billion for its programmes, operations and emergency response in Syria, Lebanon, the West Bank – which includes East Jerusalem – and the Gaza Strip. And Jordan.
The international organization says that the lack of funding over 10 years has severely affected the quality of some of the agency's services. | <urn:uuid:36c4e200-5cd0-4fee-ac70-0d7f4b9bfbaf> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://trendswide.com/a-former-israeli-official-calls-for-the-destruction-of-unrwa-news/ | 2024-04-18T06:47:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.964597 | 802 |

As a new shooter there are many techniques one might feel are seemingly reasonable. They can be justified largely by their lack of understanding being new to the trade craft.
First time Gun Owner
I worked with a student, an engineer by trade who wanted to improve her ability to protect herself and loved one. We started the class with the typical array of subjects. One subject I find important is Conditions of Readiness. Usually when I get to Condition Three, empty chamber with loaded magazine inserted a few will nod their heads in agreement. I will go on to explain the value of this condition, but not without explaining the risk. For some, they are new to owning a firearm and to ensure unauthorized access will secure the firearm in a storage locker or vault. Typically these are equipped with quick access features to help the new firearm owner and give the intrepid consumer a warm and fuzzy.
To Each Their Own
However, they may take it a step further by storing the defensive firearm in condition three. I have had several families weigh the risks versus rewards who come to the same conclusion. While a home invasion or robber is possible, it is not probable. They have a higher risk of an unauthorized person gaining access, mostly children or young adults. I respect this concern. My belief is each family must conduct similar analysis to determine what is in their best interest giving all the variables. Create their own system, but periodically evaluate it for relevancy and effectiveness.
However, all that stops when you decide to carry the defensive pistol on your body. The justification you may have created for home defense does not carry the same merit when you carry concealed. The biggest concern for this belief is safety. The justification stems from a higher level of safety created in their homes when securing firearms. However, the mistake is believing you will have the time, ability or space to charge the weapon. It is all but wishful thinking and most of the time once I am able to explain the difference between these two situations there is a greater understanding. Most acknowledge the different situations require different systems and techniques. There is no single or simple answer to solve all the problems.
Face Your Fears
There is another reason some will resort to this method of carry. There is a safety concern with a chambered round while on the body, typically inside the waistband. What is often overlooked is the why. Why does this fear exist in the first place. To me, understanding the why is is at the heart of the matter. Rather than ridicule and potentially ostracize a new shooter, we should take a more mentoring approach. What may seem second nature to us, did not materialize overnight. It took time, practice, but most important knowledge. The key to managing this fear is in education. New shooters must be educated on why their anxiety exists. Honestly, it is not unreasonable to have this safety concern as a new shooter. It may also be a signal to the new shooter they need more training, practice and experience.
It is important to emphasize carrying an empty chambered defensive pistol is dangerous. It’s not even a really good hammer. | <urn:uuid:50bd7268-baa6-4193-9469-868da431f870> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://tridentconcepts.com/2018/01/20/conditions-of-readiness/ | 2024-04-18T07:14:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.967382 | 635 |

We value you as a resident and understand these difficult times. Many of you have been impacted financially in from COVID-19. If you have suffered a loss of income due to COVID-19, have exhausted all efforts for assistance to pay April's rent on April 1st, there is a link below that is provided and a Representative from our Corporate Office will be in contact with you. We will review the application (which will need proof of income and a verification of job loss). Any deferral amount, you would be responsible to pay back over a period of time - communication with our Team-19 Experts through this process, is important. We will need to contact you via email and/or phone.
We encourage you to search for resources offered by federal, state, and local governments – as well as local community organizations – to help secure financial assistance, food, and healthcare. The federal government is providing significant resources to support those affected by this pandemic, including an extension of unemployment benefits, direct payments to Americans, and assistance to select industries to get people back to work.
For those of you not financially impacted by the pandemic, it is critical that timely rent payments continue. We are committed to helping those directly impacted by the pandemic and supporting everyone living in our communities, but we rely on rent payments from those who haven’t been affected so we can continue to pay our employees who are keeping communities open, maintaining cleanliness, and taking care of residents’ needs. By not paying rent, the community’s financial obligations are also affected – mortgages, taxes, and insurance payments must still be paid. Our goal is to keep our communities open, the lights on, and our residents comfortable in their homes.

The game of poker can be credited to several predecessors. It is believed that Jonathan H. Green first attached the name “Poker” to an earlier game after witnessing it played on a Mississippi riverboat. According to Green, the game was played by two or four people using twenty cards with only the Aces. He then went on to describe the game’s rules, and added the word “cheating” to its name. Since that time, poker has been known as a largely American game.
Game of chance
Inexperienced players argue that poker is a game of chance, but skilled players understand that the real skill in poker lies in anticipating the cards and not guessing. The game of poker has become more complex and strategy-oriented over the years, so players can better predict the cards that they’ll be dealt. Let’s look at two common types of games of chance. Games of chance include bingo and keno, and those with a high degree of skill usually win more often than those who aren’t.
Gambling experts often debate whether a game is a game of skill or a “game of chance” because the probability of winning a hand is determined by how well the players perform. A game of skill involves strategy and experience, whereas a game of chance is completely random. No strategy or skill can affect the outcome of a hand. Even if an expert player beats you, he or she still stands a 60% chance of winning.
Game of skill
Whether or not poker is a game of skill depends on the skill of the players. Some people argue that poker is a guessing game, while others insist that true skill in the game lies in anticipating and predicting the cards. While luck is involved in the game, it has become increasingly complicated as the game has evolved in strategy and tactics. To answer the question, both sides must make their case. In order to determine whether poker is a game of skill, it is important to understand the rules of this popular card game.
The most successful players in the game have learned to make mathematical decisions, which has helped them win many poker games. However, even if the poker players win more often than not, the game of poker still relies on luck to some extent. Although poker is largely a game of skill, there are many cases where luck plays a role in the outcome. The best players have consistently beat the odds of the game in order to maximize their profits, and this fact has led to the emergence of several strategies that aim to improve poker players’ strategies.
Variations of poker
There are many variations of poker, from the traditional five card draw to the more modern no-show game. The most basic form is five-card draw poker, which has no face-up cards. Players may discard up to five cards before their turn ends, and then draw two additional cards to build a Middle Hand or Bottom Hand. While this variant of poker is not commonly played in casinos, it is also widely available online. Unlike its more famous cousins, poker variations are easier to learn, and their main purpose is to have fun rather than destroy bankrolls. Similarly to Omaha and Hold’em, five-card draw begins with five face-down cards, which are then dealt to players. A small blind is placed to the left of the dealer, and then two other players place bets on the hole cards.
Other variations of poker include Texas Hold’em and Omaha. Although Texas Hold’em is the most popular version, there are many other variations you should try. Most casinos offer Texas Hold’em, and it is a great choice for beginners. In addition, it is also one of the easiest poker games to learn, making it a great choice for people who want to expand their poker experience. The simple rules of Texas Hold’em make it a great choice for beginners, as it is very easy to learn and play. | <urn:uuid:79f28808-83ee-4b37-8b60-f8ce3b16b220> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://trippinwithray.com/is-poker-a-game-of-skill/ | 2024-04-18T07:02:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.980694 | 810 |

Joe Batchelor has signed a new three-year contract at the Saints which will see the 27-year-old stay into the 2025 season.
The second rower joined the club initially on a three-year contract from York City Knights back in 2019, after helping them achieve promotion from League 1.
He went on to make his debut for the club that year against Hull FC after spending a majority of it out on dual registration at York City Knights and Leigh Centurions and made four appearances that season as the club went onto win the Grand Final against Salford at Old Trafford.
In 2020 he made another four appearances as Saints again went on to win the Grand Final, but 2021 under Kristian Woolf was his breakthrough season at the club, making 22 appearances and scoring three tries, as the club tasted a third Grand Final success in a row, beating Catalans at Old Trafford.

In season 2022, he was handed the number 12 shirt by former Coach Kristian Woolf, and has gone on to make another 29 appearances and had his best try-scoring season to date, scoring 12 times in a lethal edge partnership with Jonny Lomax.
An England debut followed back in June against the Combined Nations All-Stars and he was recently named in Shaun Wane’s England Rugby League World Cup squad and will hope to continue his strong form.
Batchelor told saintsrlfc.com: “I’m absolutely delighted to be staying I couldn’t think of anywhere else I’d rather be playing my rugby so to stay for another three years was an absolute no brainer and I’m absolutely delighted.”
Head Coach Paul Wellens said: “It’s great that Joe’s signed with us for another three years.
“We rewarded him with the number 12 shirt at the start of the season after working hard to force his way into the team back in 2021. He really took his opportunity and improved on that again last season. It’s really pleasing for us as a club to see Joe’s form rewarded England selection, proof that it’s not only us that see the value he brings both on and off the field.
“He’s a great player to work with, he epitomises everything we value as a team and has earned every success he’s had. His re-signing is a great boost for us ahead of the 2023 campaign.” | <urn:uuid:c754bc5e-5909-4f11-a73e-561c539b57de> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://tv.saintsrlfc.com/2022/10/13/batchelor-signs-new-three-year-contract/ | 2024-04-18T08:06:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.983635 | 570 |
All kinds of articles pop up about “superfoods.” It can be hard to understand what a superfood can do for you. “The term “superfood” has become so widespread that it has an entry in the Merriam_Webster dictionary: ‘A food (such as salmon, broccoli, or blueberries) that is rich in compounds (such as antioxidants, fiber, or fatty acids) considered beneficial to a person’s health.’”1
Type 2 diabetes superfoods
When you have diabetes, choosing foods that boast the term superfood can be very beneficial. Let’s check out a few of them!
Legumes, also known as beans and peanuts, are great superfoods for everyone. “...they’re rich in key nutrients like iron, potassium, zinc and folate. And an abundance of fiber- both the heart-heatlthy soluble type and the digestion-friendly insoluble type- make legumes especially filling, with long-lasting satiety that can help with weight management. Research shows that when people with diabetes eat legumes regularly, they tend to have better blood sugar control and lower rates of heart disease.”1 So how can you incorporate more legumes into your diet? Here are a few examples:
- Peanut butter on celery sticks
- Black bean burgers
- Chickpea and vegetable stir fry
- Green beans as a side to a chicken dinner
- Edamame for a snack
- Chili made with kidney beans and ground beef or turkey
Although antioxidants aren’t a type of cuisine, they are found in many different foods and their benefits are astronomical. Antioxidants help to prepare our immune cells when illness hits, as well as repairing them after. You can see why loading up on them is a great idea for anyone! Plants are extremely rich in antioxidants and a good rule of thumb is choosing bright-colored foods to obtain the most antioxidants. There are a few caveats such as cauliflower and shallots so don’t discount a food based on its color. Instead, try to include all of the colors when choosing fruits and vegetables. Here are a few ways to incorporate more antioxidants into your daily meals:
- Change your morning caffeinated beverage to green tea
- Add berries to your oatmeal for breakfast, or salad for lunch
- Make it a point to have a dark, leafy green salad with dinner each night
- Swap your afternoon snack for a few handfuls of raw vegetables such as carrots, celery, yellow peppers, or tomatoes
Complex carbohydrate choices
When you have diabetes, choosing what, when and how many carbohydrates to eat can be difficult. Choosing whole grains, as well as whole starchy vegetables, are the best options not only for your health but also for satisfying your hunger. Your goal should be to consume 25 to 38 grams of total fiber each day. Sources of whole grains are bread with “whole grains” listed as the first ingredient, as well as quinoa, farro and brown rice. Instead of white pasta, try a whole wheat-based one, or even one made from vegetables or chickpeas. Opt for baked potato or baked sweet potato over potato chips or French fries. Here are a few examples to incorporate complex carbohydrates into your daily meals:
- Peanut butter on a whole-grain English muffin for breakfast
- Add quinoa or barley to homemade vegetable soup for lunch
- Try stuffing a baked sweet potato half with lean ground turkey, broccoli, and cheese
If you have specific questions about your diet, be sure to reach out to your physician or diabetes care team.

James Fowkes was President of the Burton-upon-Trent Branch of the church until he left Britain with his wife Mary and family on the steamship Wisconsin in June 1880. He and his family settled in Nephi, Utah, they remained faithful in the Church and there are many Fowkes’ to be found in the Church today. James is mentioned here in relation to Derby branch because one of the children of his first marriage remained in Britain and became a driving force for the branch in the twentieth century. The child’s name was Elizabeth. Though born into the church (James having been baptised during the time of Heber C. Kimball’s mission to Britain), she was only baptised in her late thirties, well after her family emigrated to Zion. She had moved to Derby in her twenties where she met and married George Bradley in 1885.
It would later be reported of her life as a young wife and mother:
It was while rearing her family that she became aware of the inadequacy of the religious creed of the chapel she and her children attended. Its teachings did not square with those of the Bible, which she believed to be the word of God. What was she to do? Sincere in her questioning, she was not left long without answer. A Mormon missionary directed to her by her brother in America—a tract—earnest soul-searching—a witness that this was the truth. She accepted the Gospel, and was baptized, and with her into the Church she brought her husband and her entire family.
In the late 1800s, the small LDS congregation in Derby met at the London Road ‘LDS Hall’, and had a succession of missionary Elders in charge of the branch. But by the early 1900s the Bradley family were becoming stalwarts. George Bradley Senior, husband to Elizabeth, while still an Aaronic Priest, was sustained as Sunday School President and also as Branch Clerk in 1904. The following year he was released as Sunday School President and replaced by his son, James E. Bradley (aged nineteen) with George Bradley Senior as first assistant and George Bradley Junior (age sixteen) as second assistant.
In November 1904, the Saints left London Road, and moved to rented rooms in the newly built Trades Hall (later re-named Unity Hall) in Derby. This was destined to be the meeting place for the Saints for over a half century. The new home was quickly put to good use. On January 25, 1908, the record reports,
A successful social was held in the Unity Hall, Burton Road, Derby. When about one hundred and thirty Elders, Saints and their friends met. Thru (sic) the efforts of Mr. Wilfred Sykes one of the best orchestras in the city was obtained.
The little branch seems to be doing well at this point in its life. A report from May 21, 1908, provides the following information:
Elders Thomas Martin and David J. Sutton report the Derby Branch in a prosperous condition. The Saints are striving to live their religion, are helping the Elders in their work among the people, are united, have a great love for one another, and many are faithful in paying their tithes. Friends and investigators are attending the meetings.
The missionaries were well taken care of and were often the senior leadership in the branch at this time. One missionary during this period, Daniel W. Grover, who served for two years starting October 1908, wrote home to his wife and family describing his Christmas.
We went to the Bradley families’ home at 1 o’clock Christmas day and helped get away with a 30-pound turkey and many other good things and of course they had invited several of the young girls in, where the girls were the only ones that belonged to the church in their family so that we had a very nice crowd and 5 of us Elders. After dinner we sang songs played games until 8 o’clock then had tea. Went on with our games and singing until about 1 o’clock. Well, you can’t imagine, or I can’t tell you the time we did have.
Throughout the period before World War One the branch was active with regular socials, and when possible, MIA meetings in addition to Sunday services. An indication of the strength of the membership is found in a reference to a Christmas party in 1909 which had over two hundred in attendance. The corresponding party a year later drew an attendance of one hundred and fifty.
One event of note from this period occurred on February 28 1910, when the first Relief Society was organised in Derby. The organisation came at the hands of Charles W. Penrose – one of the Twelve Apostles, who visited Derby with his wife. The report is as follows:
Monday, Feb. 28.
Pres. Charles W. Penrose, Sister Romania B. Penrose, and Pres. Daniel W. Grover [President of the Nottingham Conference] went to Derby and organised a Relief Society. The following were set apart: Elizabeth Bradley as president, Annie E. Levy as first counselor, Alice Wathall as second counselor, Charlotte Orme as secretary, and Sarah E. Bradley as treasurer.
The sisters were addressed by Sister Penrose about their duties and work, and Pres. Penrose also gave them good counsel and advice.
As well as her Relief Society responsibilities, during the war when fewer missionaries were called and many of the local Priesthood holders were serving in the armed forces, Elizabeth served as a local missionary. She delivered tracts from door to door, bearing the soul-comforting message of the Restoration, so needed in those trying times.
In March 1916, George Bradley Jnr, then aged 26, was sustained as branch president. He was one of the few leaders of the Church in the area who were locally born, rather than serving missions from the USA, and had been ordained an Elder only six months earlier. He was to serve for only two months before he announced that he was joining the army to fight in France. He stated that his younger brother Wilfred would serve in his stead while he was away. He also joined the Royal Army Medical Corps. Conscription was introduced in January 1916, but it is not clear whether George joined voluntarily or was conscripted. In truth he was probably following the example of his brother John. He returned on leave later in the year and still presided at the meeting, but was released in absentia in January 1918, when his father, George Bradley Senior, was sustained in his stead. Wilfred Bradley was sustained as first counselor.
A few days later George Junior died as he was returning home on leave, apparently one of the earliest victims of the Spanish Flu that decimated the young of the time. The record states that he ‘contracted a cold, which developed into pneumonia.’ He was given a military funeral in Derby. He was twenty-eight years old.
The death of George hit the little branch hard, the Bradley family in particular. On February 10, District President Leroy S. Dickson spoke in Sacrament meeting in Derby on the life and example of the recently deceased Brother George Bradley Jnr. George’s father, George Senior, who had been in office as branch president for exactly one month, was released, and George Jnr.’s younger brother Wilfred, aged 24, was sustained in his stead.
Sister Elizabeth Bradley served as the Derby Branch Relief Society President for thirty-six years during a period of extremes – two world wars and the great depression, as well as the ‘Roaring Twenties’. Her grandson, George Bradley, wrote the following in her biography.
One of the early stalwarts of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Derby Branch was Elizabeth Bradley.
Always very active, Elizabeth was called to be the Relief Society President in the Derby Branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1910, an office she always cherished. She had many amazing experiences during her presidency. Her service brought her through two world wars helping her sisters in the branch as many of their husbands were gone to serve their country in the armed forces
Elizabeth Bradley had five children; James, Sarah Elizabeth (‘Lizzie’), George, John, and Wilfred – all of whom were strong in the church. In 1910, however, the numbers in her immediate reach began to fall. John (aged 19) and his elder sister, Lizzie (23), announced their plans to ‘go to Zion’. A farewell social was held in the branch on July 20, as they were leaving in company with Elders William Howard and John Barker, who were returning home from their missions. John Bradley later returned to Britain in 1915 and joined the Royal Army Medical Corps to serve at the front in the Great War. Before leaving for France, he spoke in sacrament meeting and gave a glowing account of life in Utah.
The war ended in November 1918. In contrast with World War II, the American missionaries had not all been withdrawn from Britain, and they continued to play significant roles in the leadership of the Church. Farewell socials were the norm for missionaries who happened to be serving in Derby when their missions ended, or even if they were transferred to another area. The missionaries were so integrated into the activity of the branch – as branch presidents, counselors or clerks, Sunday School and MIA superintendents, etc. that the branch could hardly function without them. For example, George Bradley, son of Wilfred, was married to his wife Isabelle in 1950– and the marriage ceremony was performed by one of the local missionary Elders.
When the war ended people attempted to return their lives to ‘normal’. It was difficult, however, because of the huge losses caused by the war and the Spanish Flu. The Bradleys were not the only family in the branch suffering loss. On the other side of the world John and Ellen Lomax Belliston lost their daughter Velma, aged eighteen, to the pandemic. John had served in the British Mission, where he met Ellen in Derby. In addition, Brother Frank and Sister Charlotte Orme’s son Louis died while serving in the navy in June 1919. Louis served in the submarine service. Frank and Charlotte had seven children, two of whom died as children. At the time of Louis’ loss, they had only recently bidden farewell to another son, Harold, who with his wife Martha, and one-year old daughter Florence, had emigrated the previous month. Frank and his wife had joined the Church in 1908, and along with the Bradleys they became pillars of the Derby branch.
In April 1924, Branch President Wilfred Bradley, who had served since shortly after the death of his brother in 1918, was released and Elder Ianthus L. Richards was sustained as the new branch president. The leadership of the branch had once again reverted into the hands of missionaries serving from the United States. This pattern of the branch being led by missionary elders was destined to continue for the next several decades as capable local leaders heeded the call to emigrate, and as a result the branch tended to be populated by relatively new members.
In August 1925 Wilfred Bradley was sustained for a second term as branch president. At a branch conference the following month, among the leaders sustained were:
Wilfred Bradley, Branch President
Elizabeth Bradley, Relief Society President
Emma Bradley (Wilfred’s wife), First Assistant to Sunday School Superintendent
Missionary activity continued in strength. In October 1927, a conference was held in Derby at which it was reported that:
Sunday was a special day for the members of the Latterday (sic) Saints, popularly known as “Mormons” residing in the Derby area, the occasion being the semi-annual conference of the church in this section. Large assemblies characterised each session, the gatherings comprising resident members of the Church, their friends, and an unusual number of investigators and interested listeners curious to learn more of these strange people... Each session of the conference was presided over by Mr. Frank Orme, vice president of the Derby Branch. Musical selections were of pleasing variety, a vocal duet by Mrs. Wilfred Bradley and Mrs. Frank Orme being a special feature.
Wilfred Bradley served until released in December 1928. The cause is unclear, but he died only a month later, January 26, 1929. He was only 35 years old.
In consequence the leadership of the branch reverted to the missionary elders. In contrast to the activity of the previous few years the Manuscript History of the Branch in 1929 records:
No meetings had been held for some time as a result of no active participants and change in conditions in branch (sic), but on this date a Priesthood meeting was held at #56 St. Giles Road, Derby. Pres. Kendall H. Curtis presiding. Five were present.
Brother George Bradley, husband of Elizabeth and a long-time stalwart of the branch, passed away at the age of seventy-five a month earlier on September 27. Since the Bradleys were such a strength to the branch, it is possible their mourning, for George Jnr., for Wilfred, as well as for George Snr. was the reason for the inactivity.
In 1935 The Derby branch celebrated a Jubilee – marking both the twenty-fifth year of the reign of George V, and twenty-five-years Elizabeth Bradley had served as Relief Society President.
Twenty-five years ago, on the 28th of February last, their society was organized, and commenced its work of love and mercy among the people of Derby. But that was not all. The occasion marked still another jubilee. Sister Elizabeth Bradley, set apart as president of the Derby Relief Society on that day in 1910 when it was organized, is still its president. February 28th was a silver jubilee date for her as well—twenty-five years as a Relief Society president. Throughout its entire existence as an organization, she has stood at its head.
One would think that this were enough to observe in one celebration—and celebrate the Derby sisters did! But no—for still another reason the last day in February was a festive day in Derby. It was the 78th birthday anniversary of the oldest Relief Society president in the British mission—who is none other than Sister Elizabeth Bradley herself!
Sister Bradley holds this distinction with becoming grace. Her fellow workers in Derby have cause for nothing but respect and reverence for her in the able way she discharges the duties that devolve upon her. Her life reveals a splendid example of what a Relief Society president and a Latter-day Saint should be.
She bears a deep and convincing testimony that her life in the Church has been rich with blessings and happiness, and many are the men and women who are better for the influence of her good life on theirs.
In 1946, Elizabeth Bradley was finally released from her position as the president of the Branch Relief Society. She was eighty-nine years old. Her grandson, George Bradley wrote:
During her presidency she had many opportunities to serve the sisters that she loved. Saints attending the October 1946 District Conference were thrilled to hear her appeal to keep the commandments of the Lord and by doing so earn for themselves a place in the Celestial Glory. She was 90 years old. All who knew her have the memory of her kindness, generosity, and love as she set a wonderful example to all future Relief Society presidents and members of the Church.
This dear lady had a hard life losing two of her four sons as young men, her only daughter and later her husband, but she always had a great testimony of the gospel. She leaves a wonderful memory for all of us who knew her and left a great example for us to follow.
Following the war, the devastation in Britain was such that the USA was an even more attractive emigration destination for the British – especially for members of the Church, many of whom already had relatives and friends in the valley of the Great Salt Lake. The challenges of the war had led some members to become inactive, and many more travelled to Zion. In the first half of the 1950s these included several of the Bradleys, and as a result membership dwindled to a point lower than it had been since the 1840s. But in good times and lean for the branch, through wars, hardship and loss, the Bradley family – along with others – had played their part in keeping the restored gospel alive in the Derby branch. | <urn:uuid:4b91cb8d-2b60-4125-ab8d-88f5e584f5e4> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://uk.churchofjesuschrist.org/the-bradley-family-stalwarts-of-derby-branch?lang=eng-gb | 2024-04-18T06:32:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.990101 | 3,403 |
There is a wide range of efficient and innovative eco-friendly electric heating solutions that will reduce energy bills. One example of this is in electric storage heaters which store energy from off-peak times to be used at a later point. This avoids the increase in energy bills associated with using energy at peak times to heat your home. Many electric storage heaters will also stop drawing power once the required amount of energy has been stored.
Ensuring that the boiler is functioning correctly is also an important step in heating houses efficiently. A well-maintained boiler can ensure that heating costs are reduced. Government-backed ECO4 grants are available to provide a range of upgrades to a home’s heating and insulation. Where households are eligible for the grant, changes and upgrades can be made to gas boilers in addition to installation and upgrades to insulation and heaters. In leading to more efficient energy usage these grants also ensure that heating for households is more energy-efficient.
Read more below for some different options for eco-friendly heating solutions as well as some other factors that can impact energy efficiency.
Electric Storage Heaters
In drawing power from the mains electricity supply, electric storage heaters are more compatible with a move away from fossil fuels than many other heating options. Modern electric storage heaters draw power efficiently and retain this power for later use. There is also significant control over how much power is used allowing this energy to be used as necessary and storing any excess energy which is not used. Electric storage heaters are most efficient when utilised alongside a range of other solutions implemented to improve efficient energy consumption in households.
There are a range of other factors that can impact the energy required to heat a home. One of the most important factors is insulation. If a house is not properly insulated then significantly more energy will be required for heating, even if efficient heaters are used. This is why improved energy efficiency stems from a system of solutions working together to achieve the best outcome. Ensuring that cavity wall insulation and loft insulation are both properly insulated can lead to significant savings. Another option to improve energy efficiency is installing properly fitted double-glazed windows throughout a property.
At UK Energy Management (NE) Ltd we offer a range of energy-efficient solutions available through ECO4 grants. The ECO4 scheme has been brought in to ensure that homes can be heated more efficiently reducing carbon emissions. To find out if you are eligible for an ECO4 grant for insulation or heating improvements, fill out our quick-and-easy form today. | <urn:uuid:ac347b12-2d24-4426-add8-47ed81682b91> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://ukem.co.uk/post/what-are-eco-friendly-heating-solutions/ | 2024-04-18T07:06:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.950454 | 513 |

WWF-India and NTT DATA Foster Safe Human-Elephant Coexistence in Terai Elephant Reserve
LAKHIMPUR KHERI - October 4, 2023 - WWF-India, with financial support from NTT DATA, is initiating the first-ever project in the Terai Elephant Reserve to understand the patterns of crop losses faced by local communities due to elephants. The project will also focus on the implementation of mitigation measures involving the local communities to better coordinate elephant movement between Nepal and India.
The forest of Terai in Uttar Pradesh is a transboundary elephant landscape where elephant herds regularly move between Nepal and India. In view of the critical priority of the landscape, the area has been declared an Elephant Reserve, the latest addition in India. However, as elephants slowly expand their range in this area, proactive solutions are required to ensure safe coexistence between elephants and the local communities.
Under this project, WWF-India will be conducting baseline assessment of crop losses due to elephants and other wild herbivores, create coordination groups to ensure safe passage of elephants between India and Nepal, support local communities in crop guarding by building watch towers, enrich wetland habitats for elephants, and organize health camps for captive elephants of the Dudhwa Tiger Reserve. The project implementation will be done in close collaboration with the local communities in India and support from their counterparts in Nepal.
Speaking about the partnership Mr. Yash Shethia, Director, Wildlife and Habitat Division, WWF-India said, “Elephants from Nepal have always traversed to and fro in the shared Terai region between our two countries. A population of elephants also resides in Dudhwa. When the herd ventures into agricultural areas, there is conflict. This project will help us understand better and address the causes and consequences of this conflict benefitting both the elephants and local communities”.
Dr. Aritra Kshettry, National Lead for Elephant Conservation says, "This project will be part of our long-term engagement with the State Forest department and communities to ensure that elephants and local people are able to share space. The first leg of the project will help gather valuable baseline data and bring together all the relevant stakeholders to find shared solutions to the impacts of elephants on local lives and livelihoods."
“This initiative marks a significant milestone in our commitment to sustainability as the financial support given to WWF-India will help in protecting wildlife and foster harmony between communities and elephants,” said Mr. Ankur Dasgupta, Vice President, Global CSR & India Marketing, NTT DATA Services. “We believe that through our joint efforts, we will be able to enhance the future of these majestic creatures in our shared landscape.”
WWF-India has been working towards wildlife and environment protection in the country since 1969. WWF- India is part of the WWF-International network and its national presence extends to over 75 state and field offices across more than 20 states. The organization works in different geographical regions of the country towards the conservation of key wildlife species, protection of habitats, management of rivers, wetlands, and their ecosystems, climate change mitigation, sustainable livelihood alternatives for local communities, water and carbon footprint reduction in industries, combating illegal wildlife trade, and inspiring students and citizens to take positive action for the environment through outreach and awareness campaigns. WWF-India’s mission is to stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature.

Nobody builds a bad credit score intentionally – an impulse buy here, a missed payment there and the problem just snowballs out of control. Before you even know it, you could be staring at a mountain of debt than you can’t possibly return on time, pulling your score down to dangerously low levels. Once you get there, it can take a long time before you recover and regain your financial stability once again. It’s a vicious circle and only a systematic, disciplined effort can turn the tides.
Of course, people with bad credit still need a way to finance their ongoing expenses and respond to emergencies. The easiest way to handle such financial matters is through a credit card, but getting the card approved might prove difficult if your credit history is less than sparkling. Finding a credit card company willing to issue you a new card is just as difficult as picking an option that won’t make your long-term debt situation even more untenable.
To help you make sense of all the available options, here is a brief overview of credit cards most commonly used by those who have some black spots in their credit history. And by the way, we have no affiliation with any of these credit card companies nor will we benefit in any way if you obtain one of their cards. Our suggestions here are completely unbiased and listed in no particular order.
TOTAL VISA UNSECURED CREDIT CARD
Advantages of having a VISA card are obvious – it is accepted almost everywhere in America and abroad, as well as online. That’s why many people with shaky credit scores decide on this card, which can be obtained very quickly through a simple online application process. As an unsecured card, it provides the user with a degree of financial freedom, while the financing comes in monthly installments that shouldn’t be too hard to meet. It is not without its limitations – a checking account at the issuing bank is required, and a processing fee must be paid upon approval before the card can be activated. While you are using this card, regular reports will be sent to credit monitoring institutions to keep track of your punctuality with due payments. In other words, this card can help you get out of trouble but it must be used very carefully to avoid further debt accumulation.
INDIGO PLATINUM MASTERCARD
Simplicity and availability are the main reasons for picking Indigo Platinum card to be your primary source of credit. If you are interested in getting this card, it won’t take you long to find out whether you are eligible, since the prequalification process is automated on the company website. Previous bankruptcy is tolerated and there is an opportunity to gradually rebuild your score by using this card in a responsible manner for a while. Don’t forget this is a MasterCard product, so you can pay with it practically anywhere you happen to be at the moment. In case you need to control your account from a mobile phone, that’s going to be easy with this card regardless of the time and day of the week, and you won’t have to pay any hidden charges to do it.
MILESTONE GOLD MASTERCARD
Another widely accepted card that can be easily obtained even after you sustain a bankruptcy, Milestone Gold MasterCard could be the right solution for the most sensitive transition period. Prequalification process is very expedient and bears no impact on the credit score, with applicants receiving the response almost immediately. Fraud protection is provided in case the card gets stolen, while funds can be accessed online without having to pay a fee for the privilege. There is a variable annual fee that ranges from $35 to $99, and regular APR is set at 23.95%, close or slightly above the industry average. To complement practical advantages with an aesthetic touch, card design can be customized at user’s request – and this service comes with no extra charge.
CAPITAL ONE SECURED MASTERCARD
People looking to build up their credit score often choose secured cards like this one, but Capital One MasterCard offers some unique benefits. It comes with no annual fee, which helps a bit when your revenues are tight. However, this is not a pre-paid card and it brings you full benefits with the credit bureau if you meet your obligations on time. The card allows for online and mobile access to funds, so you’ll be fully covered if you need to pay for something electronically. The initial credit line is limited to $200 and can be approved only with deposit, but the limit can be lifted after five months with no additional deposits if the payments are made on time. On the negative side, this card has a comparatively high interest rate (24.99% APR), and like many other secured cards it doesn’t include a rewards program for loyal customers. In this case, financial freedom comes at a price.
NAVY FEDERAL nREWARDS SECURED
Best suited for members of the military, this card delivers some excellent advantages that might be very useful at times of financial distress. In addition to active and retired soldiers, other employees of the Department of Defense, as well as their family members, also qualify for this unique financial instrument. This is a secured card that comes with no annual fees and features a variable APR in the range from 9.24% to 18% – much better than most other cards on this list. There is also a strong loyalty program in place, with 1 point won for every 1$ spent with the card, which can yield significant savings in the long run. When you consider that your repayments on this card count towards your credit history, it looks like the best choice for anyone who meets the eligibility criteria.
FIRST PREMIER BANK CREDIT CARD
This is another product belonging to the MasterCard family, with all the associated convenience of a globally accepted credit card. Having an account with the First PREMIER Bank is a precondition to get it, but the procedure is minimal and bad credit rating shouldn’t present a problem. If you manage to take out this card, your regular payments can have a positive impact on your credit score, gradually returning you to good financial health. 24/7 online access is a part of the deal, with the possibility to follow your current credit score on the company website. Overall, this is a solid choice for people looking to rebound after a bankruptcy, since it allows all the essentials without too many conditions.
USAA SECURED CARD AMERICAN EXPRESS
In order to apply for this card, you have to open a deposit account with USAA and put up some funds. Like with other secured credit cards, the limit approved directly depends on the deposited amount, with a $250 minimum and a $5000 maximum. Additional deposits can be made at any time, providing the user with a chance to expand the credit line when his financial picture improves. Since it is issued by the United States Automobile Association, this card also grants the holder some rather unmatched benefits when travelling, with no extra fees for foreign transactions and collision damage coverage for private and rented vehicles. The card is protected against identity theft, and you can count on company assistance to cancel unauthorized bills charged from it.
FINGERHUT CREDIT ACCOUNT
Issued by WebBank, this convenient card can be obtained through a simple online application process. The response is typically received very quickly, as the bank runs its checks and determines your eligibility automatically. Bad credit rating is usually not a reason to be turned down, so this option is open to almost anybody in need of a new financial instrument to pay the bills. There are no annual fees and debt is paid off in monthly installments, while the credit limit can be gradually raised if you don’t miss any payments. The card allows you to buy items from a shopping list that includes over 700.000 products, although it makes most sense to limit your purchases to necessary things if your priority goal is to boost your credit score back to respectability.
As you’ve seen, a low credit score doesn’t have to be an obstacle that would prevent you from getting a new credit card. There are plenty of options you can apply for, and some of them are coming with full benefits that traditional card holders can count on. By finding one that’s well suited to your personal circumstances, you can regain your normal financial capacity and solve ongoing problems without jeopardizing your long term solvency.
No matter which credit card you choose, you absolutely need to be on your best behavior if you are serious about rebuilding your credit score. Keep in mind that most cards available to people with bad credit rating have relatively high APR’s, and plan your expenses with full realization how much you will end up paying and how much revenues you are likely to receive in the same period. It is also wise to avoid temptations and use the funds only for things that can’t be delayed, or otherwise you might end up stuck in a cycle of perpetual debt. | <urn:uuid:6a0c3b46-d1f5-45a0-8223-efc52931ba97> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://usamoneytoday.com/the-best-credit-cards-for-people-with-bad-credit/ | 2024-04-18T08:44:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.961023 | 1,848 |
Hello, friends! I hope you’re having a fantastic summer and are finding time for some much needed and well-deserved R&R! My family and I have just returned from a weekend of fun and family time in Branson, MO and we’re prepping for the week ahead. On our four hour ride home through the Ozark Mountains (thank you, Lord, for Dramamine!) we talked about setting goals for the week. Our conversation focused around what we want to learn or accomplish throughout the next week, and a comment from my oldest daughter really had me thinking about how teachers – and parents – can leverage the power of technology to reach an authentic audience.
A little background – my oldest daughter, Hanna, will be entering 2nd grade this fall. She’s brilliant and beautiful and wonderful and amazing – the list goes on and on – but she isn’t a huge fan of reading. She’s a fantastic reader, don’t get me wrong. The kid is reading almost two grade levels ahead of her age, but she just doesn’t love reading. As a reader, it hurts my heart that she hasn’t been bitten by the reading bug. But, we’re working on it. Last summer, when Hanna struggled with wanting to read, I asked her if she wanted to create a blog about the books that she reads (check out Illuminate for ideas on how to get started with book blogging for kids!) and, after hearing her goals for the week, I think we’re going to build upon that idea this summer.
I asked Hanna if she wanted to add book reviews to her blog about the books that she reads. After explaining what a book review is to her – and then calling my mom (an upper elementary/middle school ELA teacher) to figure out a different way to explain the concept, because she wasn’t quite getting it – I saw a gleam in her eye. She’s excited about adding to her blog this summer!
The component of the book review idea that really sparked Hanna’s interest was that the not only gets to use Mommy’s flair pens to create a poster but that she gets to put her reviews on YouTube. When she blogs about the books that she reads, I also record her reading her book and put it on YouTube — I add her videos in “private” mode. When we talked about adding book reviews to her site, she said, “can you put it on YouTube so I can find it? I want to see how many thumbs up I get.” That comment really put into perspective the great motivator that authentic audiences provide for our students. Hanna is going to create the best product she can and use technology to share her work with her authentic audience. She’s a 7-year-old who wants to share her work with the world. How cool is that?
I’ll be sharing Hanna’s reviews with you soon — be sure to give her a “thumbs up” on YouTube when you see it 🙂
What about my youngest daughter, you ask? Molly’s goal for the week is to “learn to read,” so I said we would start with some sight words and build from there. Molly said, “ok, so my ‘scores’ for the week are to learn to read and work on sight words.” She’s a soccer sister 🙂
Check back next week for a new series I’m working on — the F.I.E.R.C.E teacher series. | <urn:uuid:9a6a4d30-50b0-484f-9bc0-17489d02dc12> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://usingeducationaltechnology.com/using-technology-to-reach-an-authentic-audience/ | 2024-04-18T08:40:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.969334 | 756 |
Singer, songwriter, and musician Bryan Bielanski has just released his third album, Bryan’s Super Happy Fun Time 3. He has been playing guitar and making music since he was a teenager. In his many years of being on tour he has been all over the world, traveling everywhere from Canada to China to Costa Rica. Bielanski is inspired and influenced by a wide variety of artists and rock bands from the ‘60’s and ‘90’s, which he categorizes as “golden ages” in music. Having grown up listening to those artists, his musical sound is influenced by musical icons of the ‘60’s like Elvis Presley and the Beatles, as well as 90’s rock bands like Nirvana, Weezer, and Green Day.
Bielanski’s own music is a unique mix of pop and modern folk. With catchy lyrics, pop rock, and an upbeat melody, listening to his music will make you feel like you are having a happy and fun time with nothing but good vibes all around. The overall vibe of the album is catchy and you cannot help but tap your foot along. With it being the third “Happy Fun Time” album, it had to have more joy and energy than before. He used his time in between shows on his 2022 tour for Bryan’s Super Happy Fun Time 2 to work on creating this new album. Bielanski explained in an interview with the Free Press that the vision going into this album was to give fans what they wanted. More happy, fun times, more pop culture references, and covers. A staple of a Bryan Bielanski song is a good old fashioned pop culture reference. With them being fan favorites, Bielanski ensured that he bumped up the amount of references in this album. This album included a fun and flirty song called “Star Wars Marathon” where he makes references to a bunch of beloved characters from all episodes I-IX. However, not every song on the album is a Bielanski original. He often performs covers of some of his favorite songs. For the first time ever he has included a select few on his new album, including two absolute classics, “All the Small Things” by Blink-182 and “Baby One More Time” by Britney Spears. Just like his originals, you couldn’t help but sing and dance along to these songs.
Despite having toured five of the world’s continents, he has never performed in Maine until now. This summer Bielanski will be performing at the Saint George River Cafe in Warren, Maine on Tuesday, June 20. In his goal to perform in all 50 states, Maine will mark #47, and as a Steven King fan he is excited to visit the author’s home state. If you’re unable to attend the concert, you can catch Bielanski on 90.9 WMPG in a pre-concert appearance. Bryan’s Super Happy Fun Time 3 is also available to stream on both Spotify and Apple Music.

Can you drill into asbestos sidings? Yes, you can drill into an asbestos siding. While it is advisable to replace the asbestos without having to drill with non-asbestos-containing materials, but if you are to do it, it must be done right with the precautions ringing right in the mind.
Drilling into asbestos sidling can be life-threatening. During causing a hole into asbestos sidings, they produce glooms of dust, which is a danger to the driller and the people around who might inhale the floating particles from the process.
Away from polluting the air, the accumulation of this dust can lead to a waste disposal problem which is also hazardous to the community.
Does it mean you’re doomed because your asbestos needs to be drilled? No, aside from how challenging it can be to have the drills done yourself, a few techniques are available to ensure you can contain the dust and accurately dispose of them, avoiding the environmental hazard that comes along with drilling.
Australians refer to asbestos as a “ticking time bomb”. It is being said to have caused health challenging diseases because of constant exposures to the residuals from drilling or tampering with asbestos. If it will be done, it needs to be done well to avoid undesirable health challenges.
What is drilling?
Drilling is a simple method of cutting a hole into a solid object using a vibrating cutting tool (drill bit). It can either be cutting through a hole or expanding a drilled hole.
A drill bit is a vital tool used in performing a drilling process. It is a rotatory cutting device, easy to handle, with multi-points.
It is a simple process of placing the drill bit to a solid surface and then pressing down against the surface, with the drill bit moving deeper into the surface.
Can You Drill into Asbestos Sidings?
Yes, you can drill into an asbestos siding.
However, drilling into asbestos sidings is like climbing the highest mountain. It is possible but dangerous if not perfectly done.
- When drilling into an asbestos siding, lean backward
- Have the asbestos sprayed with water, and
- Ensure you use the shaving cream
The essence of shaving cream around the places you intend to drill is to restrict dust from escaping into the air.
Using duct tapes in places you want to drill is also advisable to help in segments where you want to punch from places you don’t want to touch.
Without these procedures, drilling can be life-threatening. Inhaling the dust from asbestos can make you vulnerable to several life-threatening diseases.
Is it Safe to Drill Through Asbestos Siding?
Safety to drill into asbestos sidings is a two-edged sword. There’s a possibility of varieties of the result depending on who is drilling and what precaution the person takes.
Such precautions are duct tape, a shaving cream, a hose to run through the drilled hole, and a protective mask to prevent yourself from inhaling the asbestos residuals, you can be safe.
Avoiding these can bring you close to a health challenge. There is only one connection between a chronic disease developed because of inhaling asbestos residuals and a safe zone from any form of the life-threatening condition is to “Avoid the asbestos fiber”.
Also, it is advisable that while you drill, you spray water into the drilled hole, with the drilled hole wet; it becomes impossible to have the atmosphere polluted with dust. No dust means safety.
Moreover, because of how dangerous asbestos is when drilling, it is better to disclose asbestos when selling a house. It is the right thing to do.
What Kind of Drill Bit to use for Asbestos Siding?
Twist drill bit is a perfect selection in drilling asbestos sidings. It is the most popular, having a manual and automatic operating system.
A drill bit is used to make openings in materials and to do this; we should have the best tool for the best material.
There are assortments of drill bits, some function admirably with penetrating the wood, while some play a clear role in boring into iron sheets, contingent upon how the drill bit is created.
To get your asbestos sidings drilling right, you need to avoid going through the entire drilling process by ensuring you have the right knowledge of what drilling bit to use.
Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that serves a major purpose in construction organizations. It is highly flammable and very vulnerable to water and chemicals.
To drill the sidings of asbestos, a notable drilling bit is required to ensure dust is minimized or prevented the best possible way.
How Do You Drill Into Asbestos Siding
- Use Duct Tape to Close the Entry and Exit Point: Before drilling, it is essential you tape the entry part and also tape the exit point to ensure you drill rightly.
- Cover the Drilled Entry and Exit Point With Shaving Cream: Shaving cream prevents dust from escaping into the air while drilling. Having it around ensures you and the people around are safe.
- Drill Through the Creamed Part: The next procedure after adding shaving cream is to drill through it. While drilling, the cream captures every possible escaping dust from reaching the atmosphere.
- Use Damp Rags to Clean Off the Cream: After drilling, you withdraw the drill bit and wipe off the cream and any residual with a damp rag.
- Dispose of Damp Rags: After wiping off the shaving cream, dispose of the rag because it will contain dust and fibers from the asbestos.
Can You Put Siding on Top of Asbestos Siding?
Yes, you can put sidings over another asbestos siding.
Just like every other thing, asbestos also gets damaged with time. It sometimes requires some complications and dangers if not done the right way.
The ringing important factor is that you stay protected from sniffing the asbestos fiber.
Can You Put New Siding Over Old Siding?
Yes, you can put new sidings over old siding if you intend to reinforce the old sidings. To do this, it is advisable to be sure if the new sidings wouldn’t hide the flaws of the old sidings.
It is quite appropriate to install a new siding over old-looking sidings. If the two sidings are compatible, you are free to have the new one installed over the old one.
Can You Put Hardie Board Over Asbestos Siding?
Yes, you can put Hardie board over asbestos siding as long as your local laws or building codes permit you to do so.
Maybe you have a house built covered with asbestos sidings and you want to place your Hardie over it because you don’t want to go through the stress of having to remove the asbestos and then putting a Hardie afterward, the good news is that you can put your Hardie board over your asbestos.
Consider the environmental rules in your location, but if you are free to have your way, then you can install a vinyl Hardie over your asbestos tidings.
Drilling into asbestos is a task you need to play right to avoid getting yourself hooked with health challenges or having to destroy your structure because of lesser knowledge on how to handle your drill bit or what type of drill bit to use when drilling. It can be easy and safe if you abide by the laid down steps listed above. | <urn:uuid:7e863881-03c1-421c-80f3-74ce4e02198e> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://validbuilding.com/can-you-drill-into-asbestos-siding/ | 2024-04-18T07:25:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.937595 | 1,527 |
The University of Toronto’s Katherine Tamminen says that we don’t know much about the mental health of young people involved in high level sport.
“There is a lack of research on the mental health of elite youth athletes compared to adult athletes who are at those elite levels,” she said.
Tamminen says it’s important that sporting environments don’t prioritize performance to the point of being detrimental to a young athlete’s overall well-being.
“Some of the tensions that arise can be around, this idea of a win at all costs mentality that is not something that just permeates from the athlete, but that they’re experiencing from their coaches whose own jobs and performance might depend on how the athlete performs,” she said.
Those situations could create stigma, if athletes fear repercussions for raising concerns about their well-being, says Tamminen.
“They might feel like, ‘well, if I don’t make it on this team, then I might not have another chance,'” she said. “That might lead to them not talking about it, or if they do talk about it, it might get kind of brushed under the rug or downplayed, because we have to keep going, we have to keep performing.”
“If we can try to de-stigmatize that topic of mental health and also remove some of those potential consequences that we fear when it comes to talking about mental health in sport, I think that that could be really helpful.”
She says that the idea of not needing to fear that asking for help could cause career repercussions is something that could benefit all of society, not just those in the sporting world.
“I think a lot of people would probably benefit from that reduction in the stigma associated with talking about mental health.” | <urn:uuid:1384dc64-26be-4f0a-8a87-0eeccfa448ba> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://vancouverislandmentalhealthsociety.org/podcast/elite-youth-athlete-mental-health/ | 2024-04-18T07:20:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.975244 | 389 |

Cycling Clubs of the late 1870's and into the1880's were established on a somewhat militaristic fashion employing the moving formation of mounted horse calvary. There was a Captain, Lieutenant, and usually a Bugler. Each club had it's own uniform and colors. This formality lent a degree of legitimacy to the appearance of cycling clubs appearing on the roads in the early 1880's Often cyclists were met with hostility from pedestrians and teamsters who felt they didn't belong on public roads.
The job of the Bugler was to announce such calls as boots & saddles (mount up), slacken pace, dangerous hill, dismount, attend to cycles, assemble, etc. much like mounted Calvary .
This bugle was a presentation piece presented to the Hartlepool Liberal Cycling Club, Hartlepool England in 1892. The presentation inscription reads as follows:
Presented by T.S. Arrowsmith, Mac Orville Inn Elswick, (to) The Hartlepool Liberal Cycling Club, Largest Muster at the Feast, August 8th 1892.
Pictured below is the McOrville Inn today. It was named after a famous 19th century race horse that was stabled nearby.
The Greatham Feast has been held annually for the past 550 years in Elwick. This bugle was awarded in 1892 to the cycling club with the greatest number of attendees.

Fuso Truck and Bus Australia has confirmed it has a secured a steady supply of Canter light trucks.
While supply issues continue to affect the industry, the Japanese truck-maker now has consistent supply of its most popular model. This includes the full Canter range, including Built Ready factory tippers, wide cab and city cab models.
Fuso also has good supply of the Canter 515, the best-selling single model truck in Australia.
The Canter has become a household name with more than 70,000 sold since it first arrived in Australia showrooms back in 1971.
Fuso Truck and Bus Australia Director, Alex Müller, says Fuso is pleased to have secured reliable production flow for Canter.
“We are very excited to be able to offer our customers consistent and solid supply of our Canter, giving them peace of mind that we now can provide the trucks they need to get the job done,” he says.
“A lot of work has gone in to clearing the hurdles required to release a steady supply of our most popular truck,” Mr Müller concludes.
Fuso also has a decent supply of its medium duty Fighter and heavy-duty Shogun models.
All Canters come with a generous manufacturer warranty that covers the vehicle for five years or 200,00km, whichever comes first.
The Canter features class-leading 30,000km service intervals, helping customers make the most of their trucks, and has the best-in-class payload for maximum productivity.
All Canter 4x2 models can be driven on a car licence, when specified by the customer.
A full suite of safety technology including Advanced Emergency Braking System (AEBS), Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) and hill-hold brake feature come standard on all 4x2 Canter models.
The Fuso AEBS system uses superior radar technology to enable automatic emergency braking in the event of a potential collision and can even begin braking for pedestrians. | <urn:uuid:8d8c1749-78be-4aa0-af8f-ab25d7b3fdf8> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://velocitytruckcentres.com.au/news/breaking-news-steady-supply-confirmed-fuso-canter | 2024-04-18T07:03:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.949406 | 407 |
Japanese verb conjugation is quite simple, because most verbs are regular.
The regular verbs are divided in Ichidan and Godan verbs.
Ichidan verbs end in -eru and -iru. The Godan verbs end in a consonant or vowel and -u.
There are two irregular verbs:
Suru is one of the most used verbs in Japanese, because it is used to form compound verbs, such as benkyousuru (勉強する)’to study’ and dansusuru (ダンスする)’to dance’. From the latter example you can see that suru is used to make new verbs from loan words, too.
While the verb conjugation itself is easy, the use of the verbs is not. But that’s another story. | <urn:uuid:3eae82d9-4123-4035-a7b6-9ad53c93af8e> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://verb-blog.verbix.com/2012/05/japanese-verb-conjugation/ | 2024-04-18T07:04:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.908624 | 183 |
Social Care Packages For the Elderly
Estimated Reading Time: 7 minutes
Put simply, a care package for the elderly lists the services (and sometimes equipment) required to meet somebody’s needs. This care package will be created as part of a care plan.
Here, we’ve elaborated on exactly what a care package is, who can get a care package, what can be included and who offers care packages in the UK.

- Who offers care packages in the UK?
What is a Care Package?
A care package is a mixture of services that are put together to meet somebody’s needs after they’ve received a care needs assessment by a social care professional. This will be as a part of a care plan.
A care package for the elderly will explain exactly what an individual needs in the way of care, services and any other equipment in their daily life.
Appealing or complaining about your care package
The Care Act of 2014 says that a care package should never be put together based on affordability or the constraints of the individual team responsible for a person’s care.
Knowing this is especially important when you consider that pressure on social care and social services is currently increasing. Meanwhile, the workforce capable of providing an excellent level of care is shrinking.
Getting a care package right may end up taking several attempts. If it still isn’t working further down the line and you disagree with social services as to what you believe you or your loved one need then you can appeal this.
While some local authorities will do an amazing job at putting together care packages, you’ll find that many others don’t. If you have any serious concerns surrounding a care package for yourself or a loved one then we’d recommend speaking to a solicitor. They may talk to you about how the Court of Protection can help.
What Can Be Included in a Social Care Package
Some of the services and equipment that are most commonly included in a care package are:
- Help with cleaning and shopping
- Disability equipment and home adaptations
- Regular assistance with personal care and cooking
- Day centres and adult day care to give the care seeker different social interactions and experiences while the caregiver gets a well-deserved break
- Going into a nursing home or other type of care home
- A personal assistant to help with everything mentioned in this list
Who Can Get a Care Package?
Who is eligible to receive a care package depends on the company or organisation providing it.
For example, you can ask a GP, social worker or health professional to arrange an initial screening process for NHS continuing healthcare. This type of NHS care package will determine whether you or your loved one is eligible for a full assessment. You can also ask for a fast-track assessment if your health or the health of someone you care for is declining.
An organisation called Beacon offer free and independent advice concerning this type of healthcare.
You should ask your local council’s social services department for a needs assessment. From here, they’ll identify where you might need some extra support and will put together a care plan which will include an elderly social services care package.
Care Packages For Care At Home
If you or a loved one require elderly care at home, you can find home care near you using our website.
You can also contact the adult social services department of your local council by phone or online to start this process. Any services offered will be based on an assessment carried out by this department. Ask them for a care needs assessment and provide an overview of any challenges you or your loved one will require support with.
If your loved one has been discharged from the hospital then hospital staff should make sure your loved one can get home, has been given a copy of their care plan/care package and has been provided with any medicine or specialist equipment they may need.
Home care specific services that may be written into your or your loved one’s personal care plan include:
- Getting in and out of bed in the morning
- Getting dressed and undressed
- Personal hygiene and using the toilet
- Eating and drinking (including meal preparation)
- Nursing care from a registered nurse (and any other health-related tasks as agreed in a care package)
- Other admin tasks like collecting pensions, managing money and paying bills
- Companionship care and being taken to meet friends
A package of care at home may revolve around temporary care (usually lasting for a maximum of six weeks) or ongoing care (which is expected to last a longer period).
The home care agencies we’re partnered with also offer a range of specialist services for older adults. These include:
- Dementia support (early-stage and late-stage)
- Administering intravenous drugs
- PEG feeding
- Stoma care
- Wound dressing
- Catheter care
- Physical disability support
Each of our home care listings includes which services are and aren't offered, along with the types of home care provided.
Care Packages In the Hospital
If you or a loved one are in the hospital then your healthcare team will automatically be considered if an elderly care package is required. They’ll discuss this with you, along with offering any necessary advice.
If you or a loved one may benefit from a social services elderly care package or an NHS care package then this will be arranged before leaving the hospital.
Who Offers Social Care Packages in the UK?
Age UK can help with the process of deciding what care you need, whether this be within a care home, 24-hour home care or having adaptations and alterations made to your home. The NHS also offer care packages for the elderly through NHS continuing healthcare.
Care package for the elderly through the NHS
NHS continuing healthcare is a type of care package for the elderly that you may be entitled to if you have a serious disability or illness.
This will cover the full cost of your care and support (within your own home or a care home), including:
- Any personal care such as help with getting washed or dressed
- Care home fees, along with any accommodation costs
You may qualify for NHS continuing healthcare if you’re classed as having a ‘primary health need’. This means that the majority of your care involves managing health needs, rather than any social care or personal care needs.
This qualification process involves an initial screening. If this goes well then you or your loved one will move on to the next stage - a detailed and full assessment of needs.
Though this assessment process can be complex, you or a loved one who you care for will have all health and social care needs funded by the NHS if eligible.

Once again, Bashaev proved to be more dangerous, while Rakhimov showed a good sense of balance until he was totally exhausted and couldn’t resist the last o-soto-gari. It was another vu ctory for Tamerlan Bashaev, but with not quite the same physiognomy of the final in Dushanbe.Galymzhan Krikbay (KAZ) gave hope to the Kazakh public by qualifying for a bronze medal contest against the second Georgian judoka in the category, Saba Inaneishvili. Today was not a good day for the Georgian judoka in the men’s heavyweight division. After Tushishvili’s defeat, Inaneishvili was thrown with a massive ura-nage for ippon.Bashaev was the first to action, with a kata-guruma, that made Rakhimov shake to his foundations but the Tajik colossus resisted. Halfway to the end, Bashaev had one penalty to his name, while Rakhimov also had one. If the strongest attacks came from Bashaev, the Tajik champion had a few very good opportunities, showing his capacity to anticipate his opponent’s actions. It was soon time for golden score.There was an air of deja vu among the men’s heavyweights, since the Grand Slam final in Astana strangely resembled the one we experienced two weeks ago in Dushanbe, between world number one, Tajik Temur Rakhimmov, and Tamerlan Bashaev (AIN), the victory on that occasion going to Bashaev. So there was potential revenge in the air between the two men.Well established at the top of the world rankings, Rakhimov won his first contest against French judoka Joseph Terhec. For that, he brought him to the ground with a small de-ashi-barai for no score, before concluded with a shime-waza that Terhec could not resist. Facing Valeriy Endovitskiy (AIN), Rakhimov scored with a first counter-attack, then with a second to head in the direction of the semi-finals. Opposed by Saba Inaneishvili (GEO), he won again, to try to recover the gold from Bashaev’s hands.The latter had a more complex first round in reality than on paper, against Giannis Antoniou (CYP). He nevertheless scored a first waza-ari from a rolling seoi-nage, before concluding just a handful of seconds before the gong, with a kata-guruma. Two shoulder movements later against Jonas Schreiber (GER), Bashaev opened the doors to the semi-final, against former world champion Guram Tushishvili (GEO), whom he defeated.Valeriy Endovitskiy (AIN) and Guram Tushishvili (GEO) fought for a place on the podium. A little casual and visibly tired, Guram Tushishvili was scored on in the first half of the contest with a counter-attack. A few seconds from the end, he managed to pick up the score with an uchi-mata that came out of nowhere but during the golden score period it was finally Valeriy Endovitskiy who regained the upper hand with a superb counter for ippon.

Pinterest gives legal punch to ‘serial cybersquatter’
Pinterest is sounding its battle cry — it’s had enough of one certain alleged Chinese cybersquatter.
The social network filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in San Francisco last week against Qian Jin, who is from Nanjing, China. Pinterest claimed that Jin partook in cyberpiracy, trademark infringement, trademark dilution, and more. According to the complaint, Jin has snatched dozens of domain names that are strikingly similar to pinterest.com, including pintesrest.com and pinterest.es.

Enterprise Backup Solutions-Available, Scalable and Protected.
The demands for backup and recovery are dynamic and ever-changing. It's time to move on and abandon reactive strategies in their wake. The public cloud is influencing the evolution of enterprise backup solutions.
Data backups are becoming a basic need in businesses. If something terrible occurs to your PC, it guarantees you will be able to restart it. Additionally, it saves a backup copy of your data in case anything unanticipated and horrible occurs in your workplace.
Cloud backup is currently a significant deal in corporate backup solutions. Given that everything is digital, it is a desirable option. There are no cassettes or hard disks to break or lose.
This post will define an enterprise backup system and show you how to safeguard your data from potential catastrophes.
Enterprise Backup: What Is It?
A company data management and backup storage solution are referred to as "enterprise backup" in this context. Enterprise backup systems transfer data from the primary storage device to a secondary backup device using computer hardware and software.
The essential tools used to store information make up the hardware. Hard disks and server networks are two examples of hardware. Alternatively, an enterprise backup system's software is a computer application. The enterprise backup solution controls how information is moved from one place to another.
Enterprise backup technology has advanced rapidly recently, much like everything else in the contemporary world. Data used to be archived on tape reels in the past. Data is now stored on hard drives and even in the cloud.
Using enterprise backup solutions to transform IT
As organizations rely more than ever on their IT systems, enterprise backup solutions have evolved into mission-critical technology.
Superior corporate backup software and hardware may revolutionize a company by lowering costs, easing administration, streamlining compliance, maximizing the value of data assets, and safeguarding data from loss, corruption, and theft.
VTG offers market-leading data protection technologies, including strong enterprise backup solutions for enterprises of all sizes, to assist firms in their IT transition.
Reasons for Seeking Enterprise Backup Solutions
As technology has grown more ingrained in daily operations, there has been an increase in the demand for enterprise-level data backup and storage. Therefore, this data transit and storage may occasionally be handled by data centers.
There are choices accessible now. But not all systems are made equal. Every company owner should keep this in mind while making emergency plans.
Business networks are becoming more sophisticated and use more data. Because of this, maintaining and having successful operations depends on the network infrastructure.
Organizations constantly face new issues as they try to preserve, backup, recover, duplicate, and archive data due to the complexity of IT infrastructures.
Increased data protection
The quantity of data being produced by IT trends like the Internet of Things, the emergence of Big Data, the widespread usage of video, and the use of data-intensive apps is enormous and is growing exponentially every year.
- Progressively more complex surroundings
Enterprise backup solutions must now safeguard data in public, private, and hybrid clouds and data stored on-premises.
- More demands on productivity and compliance
To lessen the impact on program and system performance, backup windows are continually getting smaller. In addition, enterprise backup solutions are being subjected to higher expectations as regulatory environments become more stringent.
- Fractured tools
The usage of several enterprise backup solutions inside the company, which are frequently acquired as a consequence of organic expansion or through merger and acquisition, hinders the ability of many IT departments to simplify data protection.
- Encryption of backups
Data security is essential for moral and legal grounds alike. Unprotected confidential information can cost a company money and the ability to innovate. Failure to secure client data may result in draconian legal proceedings and governmental intervention. Many organizations are wary of cloud data backup because it entrusts at least some data protection to a third party.
Pricing for Enterprise Backup Solutions
You are aware that the first question your superiors will ask is, "How much will this cost?" It's a frustrating question, generally. They presumably gave you the assignment to find the answer, but when you do, they behave like you're personally out to get them. At this point, concrete solutions are accessible.
The most straightforward and unpopular answer regarding the cost of business backup systems is "It depends." These services don't have a set pricing structure. You could be looking at a per-gigabyte charge or a tier system with range-based pricing. Prices might change based on the precise features you choose.
Most businesses will provide estimations based on your actual and planned data volumes. An estimate, however, is not a price, as everyone who has ever had their house renovated knows. This may become a problem since it is more difficult to budget for an expense that may change over time.
The constraints of backup and data management
As technology advances, organizations have challenges meeting their data availability and administration demands. In addition, the pace at which businesses must adapt to changing market demands, the dynamics of the global supply chain, and rivals' activities all add to this strain. All of these put pressure on IT to promote company innovation and development.
Data is spread across numerous settings, including hybrid and multi-cloud as well as remote and dispersed environments, raising the risk of data loss and impairing data recoverability as more and newer technologies are added to satisfy the objectives and wants of the companies.
This combination is unavoidable as IT develops and new technologies are added to address problems. Data silos are produced due to multigenerational technology's fragmentation of workloads and data throughout the whole data landscape. Ultimately, this makes it more complex and challenging to guarantee consistent recoverability throughout the ecosystem.
Data backup at the enterprise level is nothing new. However, the technology it makes use of has significantly advanced.
Implementing an enterprise-wide backup solution might protect your firm from unanticipated disasters if your business's infrastructure depends on safely maintaining significant data collection.
However, data backup and storage are intricate processes. You're allowed to feel perplexed. We can assist!

VS Code PowerShell Tool Gets Major Feedback-Driven Overhaul
Microsoft's dev team for the PowerShell extension for Visual Studio Code has updated the tool in a major revamp some two years in the making, driven by user feedback submitted via GitHub issues.
"This update represents a complete overhaul of the core PowerShell engine of PowerShell Editor Services, intending to create a more reliable and stable user experience," said Sydney Smith, program manager, in a May 3 blog post.
As such, it features a big laundry list of highlights, from "Rewrite of PowerShell pipeline execution with cancellable and ordered tasks" to "Performance improvements with better cancellation logic."
The PowerShell extension in the VS Code Marketplace has been installed some 5.7 million times, earning an average 3.7 rating (scale 0-5) from 142 reviewers. It helps users develop PowerShell modules, commands and scripts in the wildly popular VS Code editor.
The new updates have been tested in the PowerShell Preview tool in the marketplace, which has been installed more than 200,000 times, earning an average 4.6 rating from five reviewers.
The aforementioned PowerShell Editor Services is the language server for the tool, leveraging the Language Server Protocol, which is used to provide programming language-specific functionality like auto complete, IntelliSense, go to definition, find all references and so on.
To fulfill goals such as improved reliability/stability, testing, feature parity with previous editions and more, the team focused on the tool's threading model.
"Previously the Integrated Console, the shell that is provided by the PowerShell extension, was run by setting threadpool tasks on a shared main runspace, and where LSP, Language Server Protocol, servicing was done with PowerShell idle events," Smith said. "This lead to overhead, threading issues and a complex implementation intended to work around the asymmetry between PowerShell as a synchronous, single-threaded runtime and a language server as an asynchronous, multi-threaded service."
"This change has overhauled how we service LSP requests, how the Integrated Console works, how PSReadLine is integrated, how debugging is implemented, how remoting is handled, and a long tail of other features in PowerShell Editor Services," Smith said.

As end of the term approaches, it’s the perfect time to express gratitude and appreciation (or apologise for your kids behaviour – we’ve all been there) for the hard work and dedication of teachers.
Finding the right gift can be a meaningful way to acknowledge their efforts and show how much you value them. Whether you’re a student, parent, or colleague, here are some thoughtful end-of-term gift ideas that will make teachers feel truly appreciated.
Organisation is a key part of any teachers job. Why not gift them this daily planner to help keep them organised when the next term begins?
Being a teacher is HARD! Ensure their time off is spent unwinding with a self-care gift.
An essential oil diffuser turns any room into a spa. For a deeper and more restful sleep, there are a range of sleep promoting oils and blends to help them drift off into a deep slumber. This Japanese style diffuser comes with a range of oils too.
The 5 minutes gratitude journal is self care for the mind and has a page for every day of the year. You could also club together with a few parents and gift them a spa day too.
It may seem simple, but around the clock lessons during the day are thirsty work. A well designed water bottle is a gift your teacher will thank you for.
The Hydracy bottle is BPA free and comes with a handy time reminder so your teacher can stay on top of hydration all day.
Gift cards can sometimes feel like a bit of a cop out, but the beauty of the gift card is that it gives the recipient autonomy of the gift they would like. From a costa gift card to keep teach caffeinated, to a restaurant voucher or even a spa voucher.
You can’t go wrong with the gift of food! From homemade cookies or cupcakes for a from the heart gift to a gourmet gift of brownies. Even a box of luxury Hotel Chocolat chocolates can go a long way.
So there you have it, a wide range of gift ideas for teachers everywhere. Don’t forget the card! | <urn:uuid:f7ad46b9-94d4-4865-ab88-e60d9f321331> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://vivamanchester.co.uk/end-of-term-gift-ideas-teachers-will-love/ | 2024-04-18T07:19:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.952442 | 446 |

Lips are one of the most sensitive areas of the face and require special care to keep them moisturized and healthy. Hyaluronic acid is a popular ingredient in skincare, and it has been gaining popularity in lip care as well. In this article, we will discuss the benefits of using hyaluronic acid for lip care and how to use it effectively.
What is Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a crucial substance found in our body, especially in our skin, eyes, and connective tissues. It acts as a lubricant and a cushion in our joints, allowing us to move freely and comfortably. But what makes hyaluronic acid stand out in the world of skincare is its exceptional ability to retain moisture. In fact, it is one of the most effective natural humectants known to science.
When applied topically, hyaluronic acid can help to keep the skin hydrated, plump, and firm. It works by attracting and holding onto water molecules, which helps to keep the skin moisturized from within. This can be especially beneficial for people with dry or dehydrated skin, as it can help to alleviate flakiness, dullness, and roughness.
In addition to its moisturizing properties, hyaluronic acid can also have anti-aging benefits. As we age, our skin's natural ability to produce hyaluronic acid decreases, leading to a loss of volume and elasticity. By replenishing the skin's hyaluronic acid levels, we can help to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improve skin texture and firmness.
It is worth noting that not all hyaluronic acid products are created equal. The molecular weight of hyaluronic acid can vary depending on the product, and this can affect its ability to penetrate the skin and deliver its benefits. High molecular weight hyaluronic acid tends to sit on the surface of the skin, providing a temporary plumping effect, while low molecular weight hyaluronic acid can penetrate deeper into the skin, providing longer-lasting hydration.
Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid for Lips
When it comes to lip care, hyaluronic acid can provide several benefits. Here are some of the main advantages of using hyaluronic acid for lips:
- Moisturizing and Hydrating: Hyaluronic acid helps to lock in moisture, which can prevent dryness and cracking of the lips.
- Plumping Effect: Hyaluronic acid can give lips a plump appearance by filling in fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth area.
- Anti-Aging Benefits: As we age, our lips lose volume and become thinner. Hyaluronic acid can help to restore volume and improve the overall appearance of the lips.
- • Soothes Irritation: Hyaluronic acid has anti-inflammatory properties that can help to soothe and calm irritated skin on the lips.
- Improves Elasticity: As we age, our skin loses elasticity and can become saggy. Hyaluronic acid can help to improve the elasticity of the lips, giving them a more youthful appearance.
- Boosts Collagen Production: Hyaluronic acid can stimulate the production of collagen in the skin, which helps to improve the structure and texture of the lips.
- Provides Long-Lasting Hydration: Hyaluronic acid can provide long-lasting hydration to the lips, keeping them moisturized throughout the day.
How to Use Hyaluronic Acid for Lips
Using hyaluronic acid for lip care is easy and straightforward. Here are some tips on how to use hyaluronic acid for lips:
- Choose the Right Product: Look for a lip balm or serum that contains hyaluronic acid as one of the main ingredients.
- Apply to Clean Lips: Before applying hyaluronic acid to your lips, make sure they are clean and dry. This will ensure that the product is absorbed properly.
- Apply a Thin Layer: Use a small amount of hyaluronic acid on your lips, as a little goes a long way. Apply a thin layer and let it absorb into your lips.
- Reapply as Needed: Reapply hyaluroacid as needed throughout the day to maintain hydration and plumpnessnic .
Potential Risks and Precautions
While hyaluronic acid is generally safe for most people, there are some potential risks and precautions to keep in mind. Here are some things to consider when using hyaluronic acid for lip care:
- Allergic Reactions: Some people may be allergic to hyaluronic acid and experience redness, itching, or swelling. If you notice any of these symptoms, stop using the product immediately.
- Sun Sensitivity: Hyaluronic acid can increase sun sensitivity, so be sure to wear lip balm with SPF when using hyaluronic acid during the day.
- Avoid Harsh Ingredients: Avoid using lip care products that contain harsh ingredients such as salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide when using hyaluronic acid.
Hyaluronic acid is a powerful ingredient that can provide many benefits for lip care. It can help to moisturize, plump, and rejuvenate the lips, making them look and feel more youthful. By following the tips and precautions outlined in this article, you can incorporate hyaluronic acid into your lip care routine and enjoy its many benefits.

(Rotorua, New Zealand) The National Kiwi Hatchery officially celebrated the opening of its brand new state-of-the-art facility in Rotorua yesterday, marking a major milestone event for kiwi kaitiakitanga (guardianship) and world-class conservation.
Ngāi Tahu Tourism’s National Kiwi Hatchery stands as a world leading conservation facility dedicated to the preservation and growth of New Zealand’s national icon. As well as the purpose built egg and chick rearing facilities, the new venue features an extensive range of interactive exhibits, dedicated retail space and the largest kiwi crèche facility in New Zealand, giving manuhiri (guests) the chance to connect with kiwi.
The official opening ceremony signifies a new chapter in the organisation’s mission, one that provides Hatchery personnel with increased capacity to care for more kiwi than ever before.
Yesterday afternoon, official opening proceedings began with a mihi whakatau (welcome ceremony) led by local mana whenua.
Guests were then invited to tour the Hatchery grounds where they could explore the new facility and speak with kaimahi (staff) about the current kiwi residents.
Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu Deputy Kaiwhakahaere Tania Wati is pleased the new facility will contribute significantly to the preservation of New Zealand’s national icon.
“The new hatchery supports Ngāi Tahu in achieving its long term goal of increasing the number of kiwi released annually, and we’re delighted to know there will be more kiwi released into the wild as a direct result of this expansion,” says Wati.
National Kiwi Hatchery Manager, Emma Bean expressed her excitement about the new facility, and emphasised the relocation is not just a change in location.
“The new facility is a significant step forward in our mission to protect and nurture kiwi populations for decades to come,” she said.
“The hatchery’s role is not only to help foster a meaningful relationship between kiwi and visitors, it’s also to educate people on their role in conversation now and into the future. This new location, larger facility and technological advancements are going to allow us to do just that.” | <urn:uuid:51979f34-c5fa-4d7a-853b-f79b0a96a96d> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://voxy.co.nz/business/the-national-kiwi-hatchery-celebrates-grand-opening-of-state-of-the-art-facility/11616/ | 2024-04-18T08:03:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.944167 | 525 |

Poker IDNPlay is a card game in which players place chips into a pot in order to compete for a high-value hand. The game is played in rounds with each player having the option to check, bet (put more money into the pot that their opponents must match or forfeit their own hand), or raise. Each round ends with the player with the highest-valued hand winning the pot.
While luck does play a part in poker, skill is more important in the long run. The best way to improve your chances of winning is to study and practice your skills. You can also learn from other players and develop your own style of play, but it is important to keep in mind that no one has perfect poker strategy.
A good poker player knows how to read the other players in the game. This includes watching for tells, which are physical habits that can give away a player’s intentions. For example, fiddling with a ring or constantly looking at the floor could indicate that a player is nervous. A player can also tell by observing how another player plays, such as whether they play conservatively until the river or if they are quick to go all in.
It is also important to know when to fold, especially when you have a weak hand. The law of averages dictates that you will lose the majority of your hands, so you should never play a weak hand unless you have a strong reason to do so.
If you have a strong hand, you should bet aggressively to maximize your winnings. However, be careful not to over-bet. It is best to raise only when you have a strong reason to do so, such as your opponent’s betting pattern or your own personal strategy. You should also consider the pot size when deciding on how much to raise, as this will affect your winnings.
One of the most important poker skills is knowing how to manage your bankroll. This means playing only in games that you can afford and only against players at your skill level or lower. This will ensure that you don’t get wiped out by one bad beat or a series of bad ones. Additionally, it is important to avoid ego-driven decisions in poker. After all, if you are the 10th-best poker player in the world and you stick with tables filled with people who are better than you, you will eventually lose your money. | <urn:uuid:4623323d-dd60-4edf-b3bb-512a73f01608> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://waldroncoachmansinn.com/learn-the-basics-of-poker-5/ | 2024-04-18T07:14:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.980081 | 485 |

The STX 11’6″ Touring SUP is a 3.5m long SUP with 270 litres of volume manufactured with a double layer construction. The board weighs a little more than some other boards of its size, but the double-layer construction makes it a reliable, durable and stiff iSUP for its 799CHF price tag.
All STX SUPs come with a backpack, pump and aluminium paddle (except the Freeride 280 Windsurf Board). While the quality of the backpack and paddle are not amazing they are perfectly functional.
The backpack is made of relatively lightweight material with very simple padded shoulder straps. There is ample room in the backpack to easily pack the SUP back in after usage. While perfectly functional (and has proven reasonably durable) it does look a little cheaper than the backpacks I’ve seen from other brands. Ironically, while looking cheaper than the backpack I received with another brand of SUP (which costs more than twice the price of the STX) the STX backpack has survived a seasons use much better.
The paddle is a very basic aluminium paddle which while functional is possibly the one thing I would personally like to upgrade in this package. It is at least comparable with the paddle which you would receive in any other bundled package.
The pump is where STX starts to prove it’s value for money. It’s a good quality pump which can be set to either inflate or deflate which is great when you want to pack the board up as small as possible. I’ve ended up using the STX pump as a matter of preference when inflating other SUPs of other brands.
Rolling the board out you get a sense of the materials being more sturdy than quite a few of the other boards I have tried. In terms of build quality, the board is comparable with boards from many more expensive brands. The double-layer construction inflates to provide a very solid, stiff board.
On the Water
The quality of the deck pad is good and the board is very comfortable to stand on. Once on the water, the board is stable and paddles efficiently without any noticeable feeling of bending under my 80kg. We have efficiently paddled the board two up with the 270 litres of volume providing enough flotation for two adults on flat water.
The narrow nose of the board rides efficiently through chop if the water state gets rougher. However, like all iSUPs, this board is quite a handful when the wind picks up. It is certainly not any worse than any other board I have tested in this respect though.
Once finished paddling the board rolls very easily and fits without any difficulty in the supplied backpack. If you want to have things fit a little bit better together you can use the deflate function of the pump to reduce the space the board needs when rolled up in the bag. This allows ample room in the backpack for anything else you would like to take with you on your way to the lake.
The bungee cord on the front of the board provides ample storage space for a drybag with a picnic and possibly some warmer clothing in it. The handle is comfortably padded and does not cause any difficulties when carrying the board over a longer distance. The supplied fin uses a slide in clip system rather than a plate and screw. This is much easier to set up and definitely saves a minute or two when setting the board up to get on the water. It does mean that if you were to lose a fin though you would need to find a suitable replacement whereas the standard US box fins would be easier to come by if necessary.
Perhaps the only thing that is missing from this package for me is a leash. Despite having a number of SUPs to test over the summer of 2019 from Oxbow, Bic, Quatro, STX and Fanatic this board became my board of choice. Coming in at close to half the price of the Fanatic, Oxbow and Quatro the board offers performance in comparison with the best of the more expensive boards.
- Ease of use
- Quality of accessories in package (paddle and no leash)
The STX 11’6″ inflatable SUP is a great value for money double layer board which will provide many hours of fun on the water. The performance is comparable with much more expensive boards and in my opinion, STX is probably the most underrated brands of SUPs that I am aware of on the market at the moment.
STX hasn’t rested on their Laurels with their iSUPs. For the 2020 season, they updated the construction to make the boards lighter without losing any of their stiffness. The new fusion technology fuses the two layers of the SUP instead of sticking them together with glue which means a considerable saving in weight without any sacrifice to performance. The STX SUPs are one of the stiffest boards out there and stiffer than almost all of the brands which sometimes cost double their price. | <urn:uuid:df7d877b-ddeb-4684-b993-9242a74ed805> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://wannabewatersports.com/blog/stx-116-touring-inflatable-sup-review/ | 2024-04-18T08:08:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.961791 | 1,015 |
This past week I taught a course on pouring luminous watercolors. It was a week long course with a great group of people. Most of them chose to work from the same photograph that I worked from. It is another painting of Spain. The white buildings in the little villages work so well for this technique. After teaching this technique many times, I have realized that the one thing people learn the most is to have a really good drawing to start with and then to be careful with the masking fluid. | <urn:uuid:ffbaf744-b79f-4c9b-b50a-ee8815a697c3> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://watercolor365.com/andalucian-village/ | 2024-04-18T07:11:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.97731 | 103 |
For dieters who are committed to cutting calories and fat while losing weight, finding an HCG approved salad dressing can seem like a challenge. However, it doesn’t have to be. While your goal is to keep your calories at or under 300-400 per meal and to avoid using oils, you can still dress your healthy salads with something tasty and good for you.
For a fresh and simple salad dressing that won’t mess up your HCG diet, simply squeeze the juice of two lemons into a small bowl and whisk the lemon juice with fresh chopped parsley. Cover your salad with the dressing. Experiment with different herbs, such as basil or mint if parsley isn’t your favorite.
Get an even bigger punch of flavor with apple cider vinegar. When you mix this vinegar with a bit of water, some garlic, salt and pepper and red pepper flakes, you will really taste something special on your salad, and you won’t feel dressing-deprived at all. Add a pinch of sugar substitute if you need to sweeten it up. | <urn:uuid:2eac1fa8-e2fb-47ea-9127-5ad619bae98f> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://waywithwords.me/creating-an-hcg-approved-salad-dressing/ | 2024-04-18T06:35:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.932755 | 220 |

- Using Default Templates Without Customization: It can be tempting to use a template as-is. Customize it to stand out and better represent your brand or message.
- Skimping on Website Security: Even basic sites need security. Look into adding SSL certificates and regular software updates to protect your site and users.

- Ignoring Website Load Time: A slow website can drive visitors away. Optimize images and content for quick loading times.
- Overcomplicating the Design: A cluttered website can be off-putting. Focus on a clean, simple design that makes navigating your site easy for users.
- Forgetting to Backup Your Site: Regular backups can save you a lot of trouble in case of data loss. Ensure your website builder offers automatic backup options.
- Not Utilizing Analytics: Use analytics to track your siteâs performance and understand your audience. This data is crucial for informed decision-making and improvements.

When constructing a business premises, design has to be considered first and foremost, but in quite a unique way. An architect will no doubt look at a building and see boundless possibilities, but they must always measure themselves by the form and function of the realized end result, with the latter often taking priority.
There are many reasons as to why business campuses are taking off as of late. Companies that have the chance to curate a large and thriving workforce are often motivated to allow their working space to expand rather than solely raise, as this gives them more creative control over their environment. However, even intermediately-sized businesses are purchasing more land in their retail parks or surrounding areas as of late, particularly as businesses move States (such as how Silicon Valley is enjoying mass exodus to Texas as of now).
For this reason, it’s worth considering the construction and architectural ideals behind what makes a business campus stand out, or how businesses can cultivate their exterior environment when renovating and improving their premises. Let’s consider that, and more below:
A visual impact is only felt properly when the most possible people feel it. For this reason, many business premises and campuses are utilizing construction firms to help with the surface coatings of their parking areas or exterior pathways, as well as full aesthetic designs upon office walls. This allows you to not only allow your visual motif to bleed into an outside and functional environment, but to be seen from a mile off, to showcase your bold creative strategy. A statement like this is hard to ignore.
Integrated signs around the campus or building are of course a great way to direct the flow of foot traffic, but they can also serve as design pieces in and of themselves. From signposts constructed into pillars or painted lines that help people find their way, integrating your logistical messages to those entering your premises is the real work of an excellent architect and capable construction staff. Of course, in some respects, this can also contribute to true safety. For instance, a well-placed and imposing sign integrated into a wall can help foot traffic and those driving large vehicles to know just where access is restricted.
Inner & Outer Paths
The paths used to transport people from one area of the campus or building to another building or area can pose interesting design and construction challenges. For instance, it might be that you decide to curate a garden either side of a walkway, or that you use second-floor connecting bridges between buildings to make sure people can move from appointment to appointment with ease. In this case, support structures may need to be built, and consulting with a construction form able to renovate a building in this way can be tremendously helpful. In that respect, the eye-catching design is met with purely practical and time-saving construction aims.
With this advice, we hope you can more easily implement worthwhile design in and around your business campus. | <urn:uuid:5d27447e-2185-4afe-b183-3163735d13ca> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://wecanmag.com/3-ways-business-campus-can-utilize-eye-catching-design/ | 2024-04-18T07:57:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.971814 | 585 |

Give these baked plums a try for a rich, fruit based desert.
‘Plums go beautifully with a little hint of spice. These baked plums are quick to make and hugely popular with all my family,’ says Davina McCall. ‘The cardamom seeds add a fragrant flavour, but if you don’t have any, the plums still taste good without them.’
Ingredients (serves 4)
25g butter, plus extra for greasing
8 ripe plums, halved and stones removed
75g ground almonds
25g flaked almonds, plus extra to garnish
Seeds from 3 cardamom pods, ground
¼tsp ground ginger
Pinch of cinnamon
1tbsp honey (optional)
150g crème fraîche or yoghurt
Preheat the oven to 200°C/gas mark 6. Grease an ovenproof dish with a little butter. Place the plums, cut side up, in the dish.
Put the honey with the butter in a small saucepan and warm them over a gentle heat until they’ve melted together. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir the almonds and spices into the butter and honey. The mixture should be quite crumbly, but it should clump together when squeezed.
Spoon about a dessertspoon of the mixture into the centre of each plum half. Bake the plums in the oven for about 15 minutes or until they have completely softened and the topping is golden brown.
Whisk the honey, if using, into the crème fraîche or yoghurt. Serve the plums with dollops of the sweetened crème fraiche and a few more flaked almonds as a garnish, if you like.

Good morning everyone,
I am writing to share the good news that WESPAC’s Friends of Turtle Island (the Native American term for the Western Hemisphere) is starting off the Fall renewed and re-energized.
Friends of Turtle Island would like to send Jalal Sabur and Surya Peterson to attend an important Treaty Gathering of the Sioux Nation in South Dakota in the middle of September. They will be traveling to Lower Brule in South Dakota to attend the Great Plains Tribal Chairman’s Association Conference on Treaty Issues. The organization does not have a website but its Chairperson is Ron His Horse, Chair of the Standing Rock Sioux Nation.
The footage from the conference will be edited to make presentations to other Indigenous nations in the Western Hemisphere so that more Indigenous voices are heard in regards to treaty law and environmental conservation.
With permission from the elders, Jalal will film portions of the meeting that will be shared with other First Nations people both in North and South America so that more Indigenous voices are heard in regards to treaty law and environmental conservation. This will be the beginning of a sustained WESPAC initiative for the foreseeable future.
I had very much wanted to travel with them but my schedule at this time does not permit me to leave the office for four days.
I am writing to ask you two things: first if you have frequent flier mileage that you would be willing to donate to either Surya or Jalal so that they can attend this gathering. The airfare right now to Sioux Falls, SD is $650 minimum round trip.
Second, if you would be willing to make an outright contribution to help them with travel and accomodation while they are there. A contribution of any amount would be most appreciated: $10, $20, and so forth. You can make the contribution right now on our website with paypal http://www.wespac.org and tag it "Friends of Turtle Island"

September and October are perfect for fall weddings. The weather is already pleasantly cool. It depends on the region, but even the surrounding colors take on pleasant warm shades. There is less bright green, but colorful leaves provide comfort.
It's better to hold a wedding in the first half of autumn when the earth is still warm and there is still no rain or frost outside. If your boyfriend proposed in the summer, and you don't want to wait for the next wedding season, try to prepare a wedding in the warm days of autumn. We have selected more than 50 ideas for your fall celebration.
10 Outdoor Fall Wedding Ideas
If you are planning a wedding in the fall, it's better to choose a special venue, where the entire ceremony and the entertainment part can be held inside.
First of all, we want to tell you about 10 fall outdoor wedding ideas:
- Transparent glass marquee.
- Glass orangeries.
- Panoramic glass roof.
- Light and minimalistic photo zone.
- Forest ceremony under a canopy of trees.
- Buffet and dancing under the sprawling dome.
- Trolleys with hot drinks.
- Baskets with blankets.
- Monochromatic umbrellas on hangers.
- Many gazebos.
You can recreate each of the ideas in your way and add your expectations and wishes. If there is a beautiful natural landscape nearby, you can hold the ceremony there. You can also decorate the place of celebration only inside and leave the outside world completely out of consideration.
10 Fall Wedding Decoration Ideas
Before starting all general preparations, you need to determine the style of decor for your wedding. All details, such as invitations and menus, should look harmonious. You may have already seen most of the ideas on the Internet, but we want you to have the opportunity to do something truly unique on your best day.
Therefore, we have selected 10 creative fall wedding theme ideas:
- Natural materials: wood, branches, moss, cones, grass, and leaves.
- Antiques: silver and steel candlesticks, worn cabinets, uncycled doors, carved chairs.
- Persian style: colorful flowers and rugs.
- Winery: large oak barrels with wine and whiskey, compositions of small autumn flowers in large pots.
- Dried flowers and leather: bouquets of wheat, lagurus ovatus, gypsophila, leather canopies, and old shoes.
- Paper and wax: old photos, a large number of candles of all different sizes, empty bottle with melted wax on it.
- Paintings: old landscapes, large pumpkins, baskets of apples, blank paintings with inscriptions about the bride and groom.
- Rustic style: wooden chests, hanging fabrics, dull natural greenery, and lots of fallen leaves.
- Vintage: porcelain dishes, silver cutlery, exquisite table mirrors, and colorful hydrangeas.
- Starry sky effect: a ceiling studded with lanterns. The photo areas and the ceremony area must be also hung with small lights.
You can combine each of these ideas with one another. For example, aged photos and old furniture go well with candles and lanterns, and large barrels and chest suits to wax bottles and checkered rugs.
10 Cheap Fall Wedding Ideas
Autumn is the only time of the year when nature gives a lot of almost free decor. Bright leaves, dry wood, and lots of photogenic vegetables and fruits. These ideas can help you save some money:
- Buy lots of different colored pumpkins. You can cut figures out of them, put candles and flowers there, and use them as decor.
- Make a smoothie bar. Main ingredients, such as apples, pears, pumpkin, and celery, are cheap during this period.
- Decorate the path to the altar with colored fallen leaves. There should be a lot of them, but you can collect them in the forest.
- Set a table of pies. In autumn, there are many vegetables, so pies and cookies, especially if placed around candles, have a special taste and also look exquisite. You need to try to make the top-of-the-pie aesthetic.
- Add a fall theme to classic cheap table candles. Wrap them with dry sticks, cinnamon sticks, and leaves.
- Make apple decorations. You just need to cut a circle on top and put a small candle.
- No extra rent. Make a photo zone out of stumps and wooden benches, and put blankets there for coziness.
- Use what nature gives. Decorate the tables with cones, acorns, and chestnuts. For a luxurious look, you can paint them gold or silver.
- Make a corn corner. There you can make a barbecue, set up a machine with popcorn, and even pour corn whiskey. Corn is cheap in the fall, and you can use it both in food and decoration.
- Combine natural gifts and gold and glitter decor. Everything natural that you paint will become a unique decoration.
Special decorations don't always require expensive capital investments. Often we have to look around, get glue, paper, ropes, and paints, and soon something very special will come out. Of course, these ideas are relevant for those who love creativity and have enough free time before the wedding.
5 Fall Wedding Drink Ideas
Since we have already started talking about decorations, it's worth saying that it's convenient and profitable to make food or drinks also like decorations. For example, you can put different vegetable beds on the territory, a set on top of a small smoothie bar, or make a whiskey bar and warm chocolate fondant near the lounge area.
So we thought and collected 5 ideas for autumn drinks that look awesome at a wedding:
Mulled wine bar
You can use white and red wine, add spices and fruits, decorate with dried oranges and cinnamon, and add spicy notes of calvados and lemon.
Decorate everything with rugs, pour sand, and make coffee in a pot called cezve in hot sand. It will be nice to offer baklava, pishmaniye, and halva on the side.
Time for cocoa
It's easy and inexpensive to do this. You can install a coffee machine for cocoa, and leave a choice of add-ons on the side, including marshmallows, cinnamon, chocolate drops, coconut, or ground nuts.
Hot chocolate corner
Here you can both pour liquid hot chocolate and melt chocolate blocks right in front of your guests. In this case, you can put fruit for fondant on the side, as well as leave there some disposable sticks.
In autumn, people especially enjoy tea. You can even set jars with jams, and a cooler with hot water. Tea should be interesting: jam with sea buckthorn and mint, strawberry and basil, and others.
Always stick to one style in one location. If it's Turkish coffee, then there should be Turkish sweets on the side, if mulled wine, then gingerbread and citrus fruits.
5 Fall Wedding Appetizer Ideas
Various snacks are great to add to drinks. Of course, brides and grooms rarely have to worry about this particular detail, because the restaurant takes care of everything, but a few ideas for autumn snacks will certainly not be superfluous.
5 fall wedding catering ideas:
- Buffet table with tartlets.
- 5-10 types of bruschetta.
- Homemade cookies and pies with vegetables and berries.
- Zucchini and eggplant rolls.
- Pumpkin skewers.
In general, the entire buffet menu can also be made themed. For example, prepare only pumpkin dishes: skewers with pumpkin, Camembert, and honey, pumpkin roll with orange parfait, shrimp in pumpkin sauce, pumpkin tarts, and much more. Of course, the autumn buffet option will be more common. There you can choose to prepare dishes from autumn fruits, in particular grapes, apples, pears, and plums.
In fall, there is no such heat, so you want to eat more than in summer. This should also be taken into account when looking for fall wedding menu ideas.
5 Fall Wedding Attire Ideas
It is quite clear that in fall brides should choose warmer clothes. It isn't logical for the bride to wear sandals, and for the groom to go without a jacket. However, we aren't here to tell you exactly which dress to choose.
It looks excellent when the colors of the bride's bouquet and the colors of the groom's tie or his entire suit make the match.
You can consider the following colors for the groom and his groomsmen:
- Brown suit and orange tie.
- Beige tweed suit and burgundy tie.
- Corduroy tie and light suit.
- Navy blue suit and crimson tie.
- Brick costume with leather suspenders.
Go for a few try-on, and consider different fall wedding suit ideas. Maybe men don't show it, but a suit is no less important to them than a wedding dress is to a woman.
10 Fall Wedding Bouquet Ideas
Fall bouquets have a special charm. They can be made pompous, bright, and interesting. Such bouquets always make wedding photos more authentic. That is why we selected 10 autumn flowers that make the bride's bouquet unforgettable:
- Chocolate cosmos.
- Baby spray roses.
- Charlie brown orchid.
- Queens Anne lace.
- Cherry brandy roses.
- Naomi calla lily.
- Hanging amaranthus.
You can make something truly amazing from these flowers, as well as from greenery, eucalyptus, and dried flowers. The best thing about such bouquets is that only you will have one, they are unique and cannot be reproduced 100%.
Fall is the perfect time for weddings, as there are many ideas for decor and food variety. For example, you can choose the Labor Day for your wedding. It's only required to make sure that no weather can spoil the celebration. | <urn:uuid:ce901b6c-2b96-4130-a76b-dde1de2117fd> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://wezoree.com/inspiration/50-fall-wedding-ideas-you-ll-want-to-steal/ | 2024-04-18T08:31:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.919801 | 2,161 |
