Managing Manufacturing: Things to Consider Before Purchasing an ERP System
Inefficient organizational software can negatively impact how your manufacturing business is run. Whether it be due to complications with understanding manufacturing variances or failure to effectively track time and materials for a job, having an efficient and easy to use operating system will help to relieve some of the most troubling aspects of manufacturing that affects the productivity of your business. Here are three ways in which ERP software can help improve your manufacturing operations:
Automating business operations
If you're preparing your business for further growth in the future, you may be considering how to help your operations grow with it. With an ERP system, manufacturing companies are able to automate all business operations, allowing you the flexibility to configure the system to suit your company's changing needs. ERP systems are not one-size-fits-all, but instead they are configured, so allow for personal customization.
Maintaining your customer base
With increasing competition swaying customers with lower prices or claiming to have the best available products, it's become even more imperative to find new ways to stand out and deliver exceptional service for your customers. Gain real time information on your company's operations to help prevent disruptions and delays, as well as break up informational logjams to help both your staff and users make decisions more quickly and effectively.
Reducing Operational Costs
Inventory costs alone affect 20% - 35% of a manufacturing company's operational budget. Factoring in pricing errors, congested warehouse floors and production shortages, it becomes important to consider how you plan on managing your inventory to reduce additional expenses caused by poor inventory management. ERP systems are comprehensive, which mean that they eliminate the need for separate programs across all departments and help save money on hardware, software and labour. The added benefit of implementing an ERP system however, is that you'll also be able to proactively manage operations, and reduce the possibility of human error in inventory management.
ERP systems are dynamic and can fit in with almost any industry. Click here to find out if an ERP system can help you grow your business today.

The Advantages and Disadvantages of Cloud and On-Premise ERP Systems
View our free webinars Sign up for WebSan University Take our FREE ERP Assessment
When selecting a new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, one of the first considerations to make is whether to go hosted (on the cloud) or on-premise. Although both types have their advantages and disadvantages, it's worth taking a closer look and offering points of consideration to make the software selection process less daunting. Software Advice, an advisory firm that helps buyers select ERP software, conducted research to create a comprehensive guide to help buyers determine the best type of software needed for their organization, with findings compiled in this article.
The biggest difference between the two types of systems is cloud-based software is hosted on the vendor's servers and accessed through a Web browser, while on-premise software is installed locally, on a company's own computers and servers. Although over time, both systems' cost tend to converge, cloud-based software is priced under a monthly or annual subscription basis, while on-premise software is usually priced under a one-time perpetual license fee.
Some advantages of cloud-based ERP software include its shorter implementation time, great stability with frequent updates from the vendor and no additional hardware investments. On the other hand, some disadvantages of this type of system are its less customizable functionalities and an organization's possible less peace of mind that comes with data security being in the vendor's hands.
On the other end of the spectrum, on-premise ERP systems are known to be more customizable and offer greater control over data. However, the implementation process can take longer and organizations have to pay associated hardware and IT costs. Organizations will find that cloud-based ERP systems are more mobile-friendly compared to their on-premise counterpart.
It would be in an organization's best interest to first assess its needs, budget and top concerns before deciding on the right type of ERP system that will be the right fit.

text: nolanri 417 Posted March 4, 2016 (edited) Now gun lovers can be stealthy too! I made a Mod that just adds a Silencer / Suppressor as a weapon part that can be attached to Pistols, and Rifles. It reduces the sound the gun makes by 90% and lowers max range slightly and slows down the fire rate by adding recoil time. The silencer can be found in gunstore and police station locations. Also in any crate or locker but at a much rarer rate. you can craft a home made silencer from a pipe or flashlight with saw, screwdriver and a few aiming skill points. This home made silencer does not work as well as the real one. And lowers fire rate and max range more than the real silencer as well. Download Link - Version 1.1Steam Workshop Though it worked fine in testing I just put it together recently and pretty quickly so let me know if you find something wrong with it and i'll get it fixed ASAP. Enjoy! Edited March 7, 2016 by nolanri 6 Nebula, MXXIV, Ankhr and 3 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is the Design Mindset?
A Design Mindset is one of the skills listed in the Institute For The Future (IFTF) Future Work Skills 2020 report and while it's still relatively new it's a mindset that is increasingly being adopted in many different occupations and industries beyond the visual.
Linda Naiman, founder of Creativity at Work, believes that incorporating a design mindset into product creation makes the end products more desirable to customers. She suggests that adopting a design mindset can also increase the appeal of services for users.
The data backs up Naiman's assertions with a recent assessment from the Design Management Institute demonstrating that many of the most prominent design led companies like Apple, Nike and Coca-Cola have shown the highest performance over the last decade.
The IFTF defines the design mindset as the "ability to represent and develop tasks and work processes for desired outcomes," while Linda Naiman prefers to think of it as a solution focused strategy for decision-making and problem solving. This process, according to Naiman, draws on logic, intuition, imagination and systemic reasoning to explore possibilities and create desired outcomes that benefit the user.
The design mindset works by understanding customers' needs, especially those that are unmet and unarticulated, and then creating something that meets those needs. It places the end user at the centre of the picture, unlike previous product-centred mindsets.
Design thinking is something we are starting to see a great deal in the technology that surrounds us every day, with increasing numbers of products incorporating design features that not only look great but are also intuitive and easy to use.
Linda Naiman outlines her process of strategic thinking using the design mindset, the same process that designers use, but one that can be applied to problem solving in general. This process is more fluid than traditional problem solving systems and relies strongly on customer feedback and a collaborative approach.
Adopting a design mindset can increase innovation and creativity according to Naiman. History has shown us that organisations with the ability to innovate are often the ones that end up successful. Taking the time now to develop a design mindset and a fluid, design based approach to problem solving is likely to pay off greatly in the future.
Different tasks require a different approach, as the IFTF points out. Recognising which types of tasks require which types of thinking and setting up a work environment that helps effectively accomplish the task at hand is a key skill for future success.

Senior citizens and residents living below the poverty line may soon struggle to meet their basic food needs because of the government shutdown.
If it stretches into the spring, one regional food bank that serves Hartford and Tolland County won't have any new food coming in.
Foodshare in Bloomfield provides food to people who fall at 235 percent of the federal poverty line or below, and to the elderly through two programs -- The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) and the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP).
"We have our orders in through March, but after that a) we don't know whether we're going to get the food and b) we do know that if the shutdown continues, we are not going to be reimbursed for storing and distributing that food," said Jason Jakubowski, Foodshare's president and CEO.
A primary concern that food providers have relates to the funding of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), also known as food stamps. That supports over 400,000 people in Connecticut that are food insecure. But if SNAP is compromised, then those people would have to look elsewhere.
Foodshare said that funding for SNAP will be limited should the shutdown extend into February – there's a SNAP reserve fund that can be tapped into in February of about $3 billion, but it costs $5 billion a month for the United States Department of Agriculture to administer SNAP. That could force SNAP users to turn to Jakubowski's food bank for sustenance.
"They are going to have to eat somewhere, so we imagine longer lines at our mobile food trucks and we imagine more pressure on our pantries to be able to deliver food to them," Jakubowski said. That puts more pressure on us to deliver food to those pantries and to put more food on those mobile food trucks."
For now, Jakubowski said the food bank will make every effort to distribute the rest of the food that it has – regardless of whether or not the government reimbursement comes through.

Thank you! I've looked over the forum for years and years! Great site y'all got!
Hi! Thanks. I'm after making a tinsel foil Fluidium but using old Hunter mix. I've been told you might have thin strip tinsel foil like in the old Hunters orange liquid / tinsel foil lamps from the 1970's. Do you have any?
Thank you so much ;-). You guys are encouraging me too much already.
Very funny my goo friend.. Yeah I guess I have come and gone over the years but very happy to be back. AGAIN! Thanks for remembering me Mr. 70! :-)
I would like to post some pics of my collection but, being a woodworker for 35 years, I am not computer literate. Going to need help just navigating this site. Started the account a year ago but, old computer went kablooy. Have a new one now which is completely different. Glad to be back and will be working with this but, any help I can get with what button to push and what does what was be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Right back atcha!
Thank you! I'm still trying to get my yellow top flow right. Even after I emptied and scrubbed the bottle it climbs up the side. Its better than no flow or all to the top but still... I guess I need to scrub it again.
Thank you still feeling my way around the site lots of info on here
thank you!!
Thank you! I bet Jim had a lava lamp. I'm new at this. Still playing with my vintage century. It forms a ball and floats in the middle. Unsure what to add/do.
Thank you! I am hoping to add photos of them as they get taken out of storage and take over my house, as they should!
make me an offer !!!
Well I'm from the US but living in Honduras. Does that still count?
Thanks for the warm welcome, Modulo. Still feeling my way around here. Stumbled across the ning while trying to ID/find parts for a stray globe and got sucked in.
Hi, thanks for the friend request. I bought the lamp on my Avatar at a local car boot sale in around 1999 for £2. I have'nt been able to find out much about it. It was definately factory made, the top with the three bulbs is not a later addition. It is 1960's as it has the early "Arcolectric" switches, brass bulb holders and the pre-1970 red/black/green wiring colours. All of the bulbs are identical old "Bell" branded ones, which supports my "Prototype or exhibition" theory as it was'nt in regular use for long enough to need any bulbs replaced. Shortly after buying it, I took it to Mathmos (they are about 8 miles from where I live), they thought it might be an early prototype, but had no records from the early Crestworth days. The lamp presumably should have had a shade of some type, which is missing.
Thanks, serenity now, lol
Thanks for reaching out! My 1977 Model 100 took a topple (I was not there or would have kept the broken cap) and is now missing half its cap. I am eager to find a cap for it but don't see it online There are many discussions here. Where should I go? Thanks so much for reaching out. this is a great group.

Once the Giant Tumble tower is built players take turns to remove blocks from the tower and place on the top. The aim is to build the tower as high as possible using only one hand and without making the tower tumble! It is possible to build to over 150cm!
Please note care should be taken when playing Giant Tumble Tower. Players should always be on their feet and be wary of the tower falling. Children should always be supervised.
(These are an additional add on item when an inflatable is hired)
Delivery is free within a radius of 15 miles from Witham, Essex. An additional charge will be added to locations outside this radius. Please contact for estimate.

I'm hoping to use Reprocessing, but the instructions at https://github.com/Schmavery/reprocessing say to clone https://github.com/bsansouci/reprocessing-example and follow the instructions there … but there are none.
Attempting to get the reprocessing-example code to run leads to an error in compiling index.re, which is hardly surprising, because part of the code looks like this:
let deleteSelection = (lines, `Select(firstLoc, lastLoc)) => {
let firstLoc = constrainLocation(lines, firstLoc);
let lastLoc = constrainLocation(lines, lastLoc);
let lengthLines
let newLines = Array.make(linesLength - 1, "");
Array.blit(lines, 0, newLines, 0, row);
where that third-to-last line looks bad to me…
I also get troubles in node_modules/Reasongl/src/reasongl.ml, where I'm warned:
File "/Users/jfh/Desktop/tour/node_modules/Reasongl/src/reasongl.ml", line 1,
characters 18-22:
Error: Conditional expression type mismatch (bool,string)
[9/16] Building src/native/reasongl_native.reast
FAILED: subcommand failed.
I feel as if there's probably a way to get going that doesn't involve reprocessing-example's nonexistent documentation about setting up a new project, and I'd love to know what that way is…can someone please help?
…also…as long as I'm asking questions, is it essential to use "bsb-native" to make Reprocessing run? Or can I just use bsb?

Flame Painter 3
Flame Painter 3 from Escape Emotions is a great tool for creating light effects. Essentially it's painting software with dynamic, animated brushes that allow you to create a variety of light trails.
There are several sliders for editing the various brush dynamics – it's harder to explain than it is to use but the results are stunning.
Brushes can be pixel or vector based, with the later retaining full edibility of the brush properties so images can be edited at any point in the process.
The software uses many of the same Blending Modes as Photoshop and layers can be easily exported, with transparency, for use in Photoshop compositions.
The Pro version comes with a Photoshop plug-in making it easy to use the 2 in tandem and work directly with your Photoshop image layers.
There's a demo version to download and try before you buy and also a free online version to experiment with (Flash Player required).
If lighting effect are your thing this software is well worth investigating. For more details visit the Flame Painter website at https://www.escapemotions.com/products/flamepainter/

Recently I went onto my favourite beauty site, beautybay.com to buy so much needed new make up! I only bought 2 things right enough, as who knew paying rent and bills went before make up!? I know right!!
Here's the two products I bought, and are now sitting in my make up bag, being one of my most used items!
Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow | Taupe | I have like the worst eyebrows in existence and am so lazy when it comes to getting them neatened up. Just me? I'm a rubbish girl, I know! But, I've heard so much good things about ABH dip brow product, I had to go and buy it and see what the fuss was about! This little pot of goodness cost me £15, which I think is pretty darn good! It applies so easy, and doesn't budge from your brows, or smudge for that matter! Nobody likes to see their eyebrow smudged off half way through the day, do they? This is a thumbs up from me, and my boyfriend has even said my eyebrows are 'on point' which definitely is a good thing, as boys don't tend to notice things like that!
Morphe 12NB Palette | I have a large morphe palette, but I thought I'd buy myself a smaller one, and one that can easily fit into my handbag! This palette has the most gorgeous shades, and is definitely a palette I'll be using a lot of, due to the autumnal colours! I just love a good plum shade! This cost me £11.95 which is amazing for the amount of eyeshadows you get! Morphe as quickly becoming my new favourite!
Do you have a favourite morphe palette or Anastasia Beverly Hill product? Leave a comment below!

The bag lady
Earlier this week, I helped a friend move furniture, which is to say: at the last book club the host announced she had been accepted to a graduate program at Stanford, was moving to California and most everything in the apartment was for sale. Summation: Mary Roach's book Bonk was the most interesting sex book I've ever read, and Jim and I can now invite four guests over for dinner without worrying one will fall through a chair before salads are served. My girlfriend scored the bureau.
At some point during the move, my girlfriend had to hold my purse while I did something or other with a thingamajig. After moving 6 chairs, 6 drawers, a glass top, a table body and a bureau shell, she grabbed my cute, dainty purse and asked: How much does this thing weigh? What do you have in this thing? So, to Alyssa who is off galavanting in London, here is your answer, in very scientific terms.
I realize that not everyone will be able to judge size on screen, so I used a universal metric for comparison: A classic Nancy Drew hardback.
Now that we have set our measurements, let's dive in!
Ok, that actually doesn't look like a lot of stuff, but it is quite the assortment. Let's go clockwise, starting at 12:00:
1) Eyeglasses Case
2) I don't know the name, but this cute fancy thing lets you hang your handbag off the side of a table so you don't have to put it on the grungy floor. Of course, that's impossible when your bag weighs as much as this one.
3) "Pink" chapstick named after a new vodka brand, given out as a tchotchke at an event
4) Bandaids
5) I was told there'd be cake, by Sloane Crosley — so far, so great
6) Hand Sanitizer from Duane Reade, which means this bottle is at least four years old
7) Starbucks mints
8) The best hand lotion ever, courtesy of Borgata hotel, which I also stayed in four years ago
9) A plastic baggie (cherries from lunch: reusing!)
10) Receipts
11) My bedazzled Nintendo DS Lite (Brain age is now down to 38. Still looking for someone to tell me where to find Link's sword, pls.)
12) 5 pens
13) The wallet (with lots more change, business cards, frequent thing cards, etc)
14) Loose change, no D quarters
15, 16, 17) External hard drive, flash drive and card thingy my art director told me to get
18 – 22) 3 colored glosses, 2 shiny clear glosses (I pretty much lick that peppermint one right off
23) another pack of mints, this kind apparently has vitamins (and is delicious)
24) notepad for all my inventions, books to read, gift ideas
25) gum
Wow. I'm one pack of tissues away from becoming my mother.
And the grand total weight for 25 items is… 5.5 pounds! Meaning my handbag weighs more than my arm weights. I could work out with my handbag. Hmmm. Stay tuned for the article on how to get the toned arms you've always wanted just by commuting to work. But first let me sit down at my sturdy new dining room table and think on that a bit.
7 thoughts on "The bag lady"
1. I LOVE that purse ( and the contents are eerily similar to mine, except that I have tissues)
2. thanks for stopping by finnsspace and yes, it was the real Elvis Costello, not code for anythign and yes, it was very cool
3. sweet fancy jesus? awesome!!!
the other sword?
did you talk to that Zaus guy yet?
Darth — is he the old guy inside the hut? He told me about the bridge or something.
Kathryn (same name!) — thanks for visiting and leaving a comment. The best part about a purdy pink purse is asking Jim to carry it even for just a second while I tie my shoe.
Also, I realize now that my keys, phone and sunglasses didn't make the photo. Der.
How on earth do you fit it all in there! Good idea though (for a post) – I might have to copy.
Generally I find the bigger the handbag,the more STUFF I am tempted to shove in it!
Ha! Tonight I was at a birthday party that was slightly dull – I announced that I had playing cards in my purse (which I try to have for such moments), only to realize I had taken them out. But, interesting items found in the purse were one golf ball, three beer keys (leftover bartender items), and two coupons for one free donut at Dunkin and Krispy Kreme, respectively. Also, I keep two day planners right now – the current one runs out on June 30 and the new one starts July 1. It's a pain in the arse carrying both, but I think you'd manage to fit them well.
Deanne– thank you for reading and commenting, I think it's been at least a YEAR since i've seen you around (here). (scary/weird)
MMG — that's it, if you keep fiscal calendars my father will adopt you.
Yay for reusing ziploc bags!!!
My grandmother has one of those purse-hang-off-a-table contraptions, and I think if I play my cards right I might have one coming to me Chanukah '08. And, Nancy Drew "Mystery of the Hidden Staircase" (is it the second volume in the series?) was the first Nancy Drew book I ever read, and ever owned. Ah, the nostalgia…

To my knowledge, this makes Washington the first state to allow fee sharing and joint ownership of a law practice between a lawyer and nonlawyer. (The District of Columbia also allows ownership and fee sharing by nonlawyers in limited circumstances.)

SAN JOSE (CBS SF) — A 24-hour stomach bug outbreak that has sickened hundreds of students in the San Jose Unified School District schools may be spreading to other counties, according to the Santa Cruz County Health Services Agency.
There have been at least 28 cases reported by children and staff at a camp in the unincorporated Boulder Creek area, according to Santa Cruz County officials who said they are concerned about a more significant outbreak.
So far, 368 students have fallen ill at 14 schools in San Jose since the outbreak began around May 4, school district officials said Thursday.
Most of those students affected are already healthy and back in class since
the duration of the illness is relatively brief.
District officials estimated Tuesday that more than 200 students had been sickened by the outbreak, but say the growing number of cases is driven primarily by just four schools.
So far the outbreak in the San Jose Unified School District is only affecting students. No teachers or staff have reported catching the virus, according to the district.
To help combat the outbreak, cleaning crews have been sanitizing surfaces in common areas of the affected schools, like playgrounds, computer labs, classrooms and cafeterias.
School nurses have been educating the students on proper hand-washing habits, and a number of non-instructional school events have been canceled or postponed to limit the spread of the virus.
The symptoms include vomiting and diarrhea, which points to norovirus, according to the Santa Clara County Public Health Department, but that has not yet been confirmed by a laboratory.
Any parent with a student showing symptoms of the stomach bug is asked to keep their child home for a full 48 hours after they appear to be healthy again, since patients continue to shed the virus during that timeframe even after they feel better.

"Look at what happens when our experts try to heat up some of this stuff! (Do not try this at home)"
I know that people wonder what happens when they heat up everyday objects in a microwave oven, but it's scary, huh? This portfolio belongs to one (GreenSock) who tries to heat up some of these objects in a microwave. Some of these seem really cool, but scary too.
GreenSock puts marshmallows, glue, cake, foam, soap, eclair, parfait, eggs, gummy worms, jelly legumes, deodorant, crispy desert bar, tomato, football, gelatin cups, Christmas lights (!) , crayons, breath mints, pineapple, gum and ketchup packets in a microwave oven, respectively. Actually I had tried one of these. Unfortunately, the result was painful :).
Each video has an individual music that describes its melting or exploding characteristics.
Decide by yourself : Are they series of an experiment or work of art?

Born on the Sixteenth
For those born on the sixteenth day of any month:
You are clever, alert, and intellectual. Because of the power you have to penetrate the walls of ignorance or abstruse problems, you are inclined to be impatient with dullness.
To dominate the scene is no unique experience for you, but you are modest and do not revel in showing off your strength. The subtler things in life appeal to you. On the light side you choose detective stories; on the heavy side you find an interest in all things mystic.
You have a great magnetism for people, but you are not too quick to part with your affections.
You should learn to relax with the lighter pleasures of the mind and spirit. Too much concentration inclines you to depression which you must avoid.

Vitaly Bigdash, 33, of Rostov, Russia will fight his fourth ONE Championship bout on May 12, 2018. He will face Leandro Ataides, 31, of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil at "ONE: Grit and Glory" at the Jakarta Convention Center in Jakarta, Indonesia.
"I've never been more prepared both mentally and physically to take out my opponent like Leandro Ataides," Bigdash declared. "I will shut down the doubters on May 12. It's going to be an exciting fight, one that I have definitely been looking forward to for a long time now."
On October 9, 2015, Bigdash captured the ONE Middleweight World Champion title after dethroning Igor "Lionheart" Svirid, 31, of Almaty, Kazakhstan at "ONE: Tigers of Asia" via technical knockout via knee and punches. The Russian fighter successfully defended his title from "The Burmese Python" Aung La N Sang, 32, of Kachin, Myanmar on January 14, 2017 at "ONE: Quest for Power" but during their rematch on June 30, 2017 at "ONE: Light of a Nation," Aung snatched the title from Bigdash.
In Bigdash's recent bouts, he displayed more of his grappling but originally, he made his name in the striking department. Having started out in his martial arts journey with Kyokushin karate, he won several tournaments in the aforementioned tough discipline before transitioning to Muay Thai in 2012.
Also in 2012, Bigdash made his cage debut and racked up eight consecutive victories en route to capturing the ONE Middleweight World Championship. Of his nine wins, four of them have come by way of knockout, including his thrilling stoppage of Svirid to claim the gold-plated strap.
The bout between Bigdash and Svirid has come to be widely regarded as the most exciting in ONE Championship history. In the bout, the Russian contender showed both his ability to absorb and dispense damage, coming back from several knockdowns to dethrone the champion.
Since dropping the belt to Aung in their rematch, Bigdash is on the comeback trail, and the first opponent in his path to redemption is Ataides. Here is a clip featuring the Russian fighter:

Langdon, Graeme (2010) Juridically minded, justifiably frightened : academic legitimacy and the suspension of horror. Masters thesis, Concordia University.
Text (application/pdf)4MB
MR67155.pdf - Accepted Version
As any reader of scholarly writing on the horror film knows, study of the genre tends to begin with tactful apologies and explicit declarations of the genre's academic legitimacy. Rhetorical maneuvers of this sort seem intended to reclaim horror from its law-fearing critics and its dubious status before the law. Yet, they betray a certain complicity between the academy and the law because they concede that something essential to the genre requires justification. In this thesis, I read Film Studies' general inability to analyze the horror film without recourse to such supplementary acts of justification through Giorgio Agamben's analysis of the aporetic structure of Western sovereignty (I998). According to Agamben, the force of law resides in its capacity to maintain itself in relation to an exteriority (18)." As I hypothesize, the academic justification of horror corroborates the marginality of the genre and affirms the sovereign soundness of interpretive thought in the face of an uninterpretable limit. This limit is the unreadable immediacy of horror's violence (its affect, or, appeal to the bare life of its audience), and like the homo sacer of Agamben's analysis, it is included in the form of its exclusion. The academic justification of horror admits something dubious about the genre, but suspends it beyond contemplation

Body Form and Your Shoes:
When you decide on sneakers a handful of things rely on your physique sort and let's explore them very first. For quick gals, the two-3 inches heel sneakers perform most effective. Really large heels can make you glimpse off equilibrium. Use the relaxation of the outfit to elongate, by firming shoes to stockings and skirt or to socks and trousers. Match the tone of best to base for even additional height. If you have thick ankles and large calves, sling backs are the most flattering style. Knee higher boots are also pleasant selection. Sneakers that are too chunky or far too delicate will make your legs search heavier. Avoid sq. toes, stiletto heels, wedges and platforms. If you have thick calves, keep away from mid calf boots. If you extended feet, the pointy footwear will make your legs glance for a longer period. An oval or squared toe functions ideal for these types of shoes. Shape of the heels should really match the form of your system. If you are heavy, a skinny stiletto will exaggerate your weight. Thicker heel design is much better option.
Here are the couple of tips on how to match dresses with footwear:
1. Pretty extensive and extremely short skirts appear superior with lessen heels.
two. Slender trousers glance very best with reduced heels.
three. The heavier the shoe, the a lot more casual it turns into.
four. When worn with a skirt, a significant reduce shoe can make the leg seem heavier and shorter. Use significant slice shoes with pants.
5. Typically a shoe ought to be the identical coloration loved ones as your outfit, but not an correct match.

Comfortable Shoes
Sneakers ease and comfort relies upon on three principal aspects: the fitting, design, and substance.
Fitting: When you acquire a several pair of sneakers, we know what sizing fits us properly for different sneakers makes. I would suggest to fork out focus to both the measurement and the width of the shoes. For example, consider 7B compared to the 7 1/2 A.
Style: Based on your top, the recommenced heel top that will make you truly feel cozy is various. In standard shorter and heavier the human being, it gets difficult to dress in heels previously mentioned two inches. If you want to use heels additional than two inches, do it in moderation. The kitten heels and Louis heels are great choices for substantial heels shoes.
Substance :Footwear selected built of breathable substance so your feet receives the oxygen it needs, comfortable and flexible materials and leather-based to allow it increased freedom of motion, and a versatile and cushioned sole. For more in regards to b21 shoes review the web-site.
Stylish Shoe Variations
The most flattering shoe heels are the trim. Though slim all all-around is best, you can have some width when wanting at it from the back again and even now achieve leg-lengthening result. A tapered toe provides the slimmest search. If pointed toes are far too unpleasant, appear for an oval or squared off condition. Thin sole produces the most slimming shoe. When looked at from the facet, the sole must be skinny no additional than an eighth of an inch.

No animal reminds me of spring like a bunny! Spring is when most rabbits around Toronto begin their breeding season. Because actually seeing these adorable woodland critters is rare, I used this crochet spring bunny pattern to make my own bunnies! This pdf pattern will instruct you on how to crochet a doll-sized amigurumi bunny. I used floppy ears because I've always had a soft spot for animals with floppy ears. The bunny is also wearing a vest, because it's spring out and there's still a bit of a bite in the wind.
Suitable for all skill levels, though basic crochet knowledge is needed. Check out the Crochet Spring Bunny blog post for more info.

The Golden Triangle. This center is located in Rodeo Drive and holds a wealth of stores. It lines up designer stores, the likes of Cartier, Tifanny's, Bally, Gucci, Chanel, and other notables. Throughout the entire triangle, you will see a rich collection of stores as if you are in an episode of the Lifestyle of the Rich and Famous.

The 21 of September has been designated by the United Nations as an International Day of Peace.
You may feel like you have very little power or control over world events and decisions made by politicians. In truth, we do have a lot more influence on the state of the world than we think. We create our realities and our thoughts and spiritual wellbeing have a huge impact on external events, particularly when a large number of us focus on the same outcome.
Let's take this opportunity tomorrow (well, it doesn't have to be just tomorrow!) to meditate on peace – peace within us and peace all around us. Below is one of my favourite meditations. The text was adapted from the Institute of Sathya Sai Education by my aunt Vassiliki Stephanides. With pure intent, this meditation is a very powerful tool for shaping and recreating our inner and outer worlds.
I suggest you first read through the meditation a couple of times to memorise it and then sit comfortably to carry it out. You can use a candle to help you visualise the light or imagine one in front of you. As the meditation ends, ensure you visualize the light returning to you in order to ground yourself.
From ISSE, Europe (Institute of Sathya Sai Education)
Adapted by Vassiliki Stephanides
Sit comfortably on a chair, or cross-legged on the floor, with your back straight, the spine aligned with your neck and head. Rest your hands on your knees, palms facing up. Take a few deep breaths and relax.
Look silently for a few moments at the flame of the candle in front of you.
Slowly close your eyes and visualize the light coming right inside your head. Think as follows:
"The light is inside my head; my thoughts are pure, bright, and good."
The light comes into your eyes. "My eyes are full of light and focus on what's good around me."
The light comes into your ears. "My ears focus on the positive sounds around me".
The light comes into your mouth. "My mouth is full of light and always speaks good words, full of love and truth; I eat food that is fresh, pure and good."
The light goes down to your heart. "My heart is full of Love. The light spreads from my heart and unites with the light in the hearts of all those that I know, those that have done good to me, and those that perhaps have not done good to me. They all have the same light in their heart."
Now the light goes to your hands. "My hands always do good deeds and serve others with love."
The light now goes to your legs. "My feet always take me to good people and places; they take me to my goal, which is to know the Truth and experience Love."
The light now goes to every cell of your body. It fills you with Love and good health. Now it spreads outside your body and surrounds you in a big ball of Light. "I am in the Light."
The ball of Light expands and fills the room with Light. It expands further, goes out of this room and spreads in the whole town, enters the houses and the hearts of your relatives, friends and acquaintances.
The Light continues to spread and covers your whole country. "My country is in the Light. My country is in Light and Peace." The Light spreads more and covers other countries and all other continents. The entire planet is now in the Light. Earth is in Light and Peace. The Light spreads further in our solar system, our Galaxy, in the whole universe, until we all unite with the Supreme Being.
We are all in the Light. We are all One. The Light and me are One. I am the Light."
(Stay at this level for some time).
The Light recedes into a small ball and returns back to your heart. "I see its brightness, I feel its warmth in my heart, and I keep it there for the rest of the day."

The Saint and God's Goodness
The Lord is good, a strong refuge when trouble comes. He is close to those who trust in him.
Nahum 1:7 NLT
What does it means for God to be good? It means in him, there is nothing deceptive, misleading, evil, or impure. All of God's motives are honest, loving, grace-filled, and kind. In him, we can trust and find a place of security, rest and peace. As we place all of all reliance on him, he is pleased and he responds in sympathy, mercy, provision, and blessing. A saint is not one who has achieved great spiritual heights, but one who trusts in the simple goodness of God even in the darkest of nights.
That God is good is taught and implied on every page of the Bible and must be received as an article of faith as impregnable as the throne of God. It is a foundation stone for all sound thought about God and is necessary to moral sanity.
A. W. Tozer, The Knowledge of the Holy (New York: Harper & Row, 1961), 88.
The saint is not one who tries hard to be good, but one who surrenders to [God's] Goodness.
E. Stanley Jones, In Christ (Nashville, TN: Abingdon, 1980)

By Ken Gillespie
Movie buffs may recall the 1967 James Bond thriller, "You Only Live Twice." Nancy Sinatra sang the bewitching theme which went on to become a hit: "You only live twice, one life for yourself and one for your dreams." The song's lyrics describe our featured resident this month, Blake Ingram. One part of him lives a predictable life, enjoying a stable position as head of First Coast Technical College's automotive services program in St. Augustine. But his dream life can be summed up by a personal philosophy: "A bird is safe in its nest, but that's not what wings were designed for."
- Tell us about your role at the college.
The First Coast Technical College serves more than 1,400 students with 19 career and tech education programs in Industrial Arts, Health and Human Services, Public Safety, Culinary, and Adult Education. The diverse student body ranges from high schoolers to mature adults looking to expand their skills. Taking "shop courses" used to be a path for those not capable of university level academics. Things are changing. Students, parents and high school guidance counselors are rediscovering vocational education. My demanding 14-month full time automotive curriculum blends theory with hands-on practice. Eighty percent of our graduates are offered immediate employment by dealerships and service centers with salaries running to a high of $38,000. Tuition is a modest $8,000 with generous financial grants available.
2. What path led you to automotive?
I joke that when I was young I could take things apart, put them back together, and not have any left over parts. My tech dad passed on his genes and skills. I earned a bachelor's in construction from the University of North Florida, but the job market for builders tanked the year I finished. I fell back on my part time job at Publix. I often helped customers walk groceries to their car. One day a Mercedes owner casually remarked that his automatic window wouldn't operate. I said I can fix that. Impressed, he came back several times with other issues. He spread the word with his high-end car friends. I quickly had so much business that I moved out of my residential garage into a rented bay, effectively starting my new career and business. I named it the Metric Systems Garage, servicing British and European vehicles. Running the shop taught me skills needed to manage a business and people. This real-world experience enables me to teach future techs all they need to know to go above and beyond in automotive.
3. How do you unplug from life's routine?
Several ways! I often hop onto one of my two motorcycles and head for the open road. On a bike you can't really think about more than where you are. There's a freedom that comes with that … from stress, worry, and sweating the small stuff. In college I learned to sail, becoming captain of UNF's sailing program. I've clocked many hours on the St. Johns river, Intracoastal, and even ventured out to the Atlantic. I also like to travel, often by myself. Visiting places off the beaten path is great and while there I like to strike up conversations with total strangers. Over the years I've built a country-wide network of new-found friends.
4. You've described yourself as a social butterfly
It's kind of ironic. I was born with a cleft palate, which affected my speech. It took years of therapy to improve. It appears these therapists did too great a job because now you can't shut me up. I was definitely the class clown when I was a kid. Interpersonal skills are a tremendous gift to have as an educator. I enjoy swing dancing, singing my heart out with karaoke, and participating in full-contact origami. Friends know me as someone always quick with a joke or story, or composing a clever toast at gatherings.
5. What's next for you?
I keep thinking there must be something else out there for me — but I don't know what that might be. For now I like to teach, but other ideas run through my head, everything from becoming a project manager for large scale construction work to selling everything I own and moving to the Bahamas, where as a boat captain I would run sunset sails for honeymooners.

Arrive Bangkok, Thailand
Arrive in Bangkok, where you are met and transferred to your hotel.
Paro & Thimphu, Bhutan | Land of the Stupas
Fly to Paro, in Bhutan, where you are greeted with a tashi khadda (traditional welcome). Known to locals as the "Land of the Peaceful Dragon," Bhutan is a country of sprawling forests, venerated monasteries, lush green valleys, and age-old spiritual and medicinal practices. Its people are hardworking, vividly attired and deeply religious. Continue overland to Thimphu, past forests, fields and rivers, stopping en route to visit the Simtokha Dzong, a one-time monastery-fortress built in 1629 by the founder of Bhutan. Upon arrival, check in to your accommodations, a beautiful Bhutanese retreat in the heart of the city, where you savor a refreshing lunch. Enjoy your afternoon at leisure, taking in the sights and sounds of tranquil Thimphu, perusing colorful textiles in the local markets or luxuriating in the on-site spa. Afterward, gather for a welcome dinner at the hotel.
Thimphu | Insights into Tibetan Medicine
Set out today for the National Library of Bhutan to view its fascinating collection of precious texts and sacred manuscripts. Next, visit the Traditional Medicine Institute, where you enjoy a talk on Tibetan medicine, learning how the rich herbal remedies made up from the medicinal plants abundant in Bhutan are prepared and dispensed. Return to your hotel for lunch. Then, proceed to Pangri Zampa, a college for traditional astrology founded in the early 16th century, to learn how monks are trained in various areas of traditional astrology. Conclude your visit with the opportunity to practice meditation, guided by an expert, as the serene surroundings enhance this calming mindfulness technique. Later, return to your hotel, where you enjoy dinner.
Punakha | Legend of the Divine Madman
Venture to Punakha, once the capital of Bhutan. Drive over Dochula Pass at an altitude of 10,200 feet, travelling through forests of pine festooned with hanging lichen, and stopping to take in awe-inspiring vistas of the snow-capped Himalaya. Hike up to Chimi Lhakhang (Temple of the Divine Madman), built in 1499 to honor the Lama Drukpa Kunley. Adorned with fertility symbols, the monastery is a long-established pilgrimage destination, particularly for women and couples seeking a blessing for successful childbearing. Stroll through the temple grounds, free to speak with the monks who abide there. Afterward, proceed to your hotel, where you enjoy lunch followed by time at leisure. This evening, dine at your amazing resort, overlooking a verdant, terraced valley, as you sit around a warming fire.
Khotakha | Tshechu Festival
Journey overland to Khotakha Valley, a ravine of almost magical beauty that is home to several sacred monasteries and hermitages. Venture through deep pine forests and countryside dotted by drupchus (water springs considered spiritually vital) and menchus (waters believed to have healing powers). Arrive at a remote village seldom visited by tourists to experience life as the locals live it. Visit a farmhouse to observe the lifestyle of Bhutanese people, from whom you learn about the region's ancient traditions. Enjoy a warm greeting that includes a tashi khadda ceremony and welcome tea at a monastery, which you then tour. Next, gather for a private tshechu festival, held just for you. The tshechu brings together an entire community to share ritual dances that illustrate events in the life of eighth-century Buddhist master Guru Rinpoche, and is a glimpse into the true heart of this deeply spiritual people. After lunch, enjoy the opportunity to don traditional Bhutanese garments, a kira (dress) for women or a gho (robe) for men, and take part in a friendly archery match or dart game with village residents. After your full day of cultural and spiritual immersion, return to your lodge for dinner.
Punakha | Design Your Day
This morning, visit the majestic Punakha Dzong, also known as "the palace of great happiness." Constructed in 1673, it is the second oldest and second largest dzong in Bhutan. Return to your hotel for lunch. In the afternoon, enjoy one of these Design Your Day activities.
Hike or Drive to Chorten Nyingpo Lhakhang, passing through local villages and terraced rice paddies en route.
Visit Sangchhen Dorji Lhuendrup Lhakhang Nunnery, a temple complex for higher learning and meditation center.
Trek to a Chorten (stupa) noted for its architecture, to enjoy breathtaking views of the Punakha Valley.
This evening, return to your resort for dinner.
Paro | Inspiring River Valleys
Today, experience the unique serenity of Bhutan's rugged landscapes on a scenic drive to Paro, descending from Dochula Pass and stopping en route for lunch in Thimphu. Continue to Paro Valley, where glacial waters flow through alpine meadows, and check in to your resort, a serene haven set above the Paro valley and ancient dzong ruins. Relax at leisure this afternoon, taking advantage of your hotel's integrated wellness offerings, such as a consultation with a doctor trained in traditional Bhutanese medicine, a massage, a hot-stone bath, a private yoga or meditation class, or other rejuvenating treatments.
Paro | Ascent to the "Tiger's Nest"
Embark on a challenging hike to one of Bhutan's most revered icons, Taktsang Monastery ("Tiger's Nest"), which clings to a cliff 3,000 feet above the valley floor. Ascend to over 10,000 feet above sea level on a climb that Buddhists often make as a pilgrimage. Upon arrival, take in the views at this sacred site, where the great tantric mystic Guru Rinpoche (also known as Padmasambhava) is believed to have flown on the back of the tiger to bring the teachings of the Buddhist Dharma to Bhutan. Afterward, descend back down the mountain to enjoy a tented picnic lunch that includes Champagne, relaxing to the sounds of local musicians. Afterward, drive back to your hotel for an afternoon at leisure, resting from your climb or experiencing the many wellness-related amenities offered on site, which include massage and hot-oil compression. You may also consult with one of the hotel's on-site Bhutanese traditional specialists about a well-being program that includes personalized nutritional, traditional therapeutic, and functional fitness recommendations. Or, elect to unwind by the pool. This evening, gather for a final dinner at your hotel.
Depart Bangkok
On Day 9, either fly to Kathmandu to begin your post-tour extension or fly to Bangkok to enjoy the use of an executive room, available through Day 10, when you depart.
