- Hand-wash your cashmere in a delicate wool-wash (with water just warmer than room temp)
- Roll out excess moisture after washing. Place your knit on the towel and roll and press out the excess moisture
- Dry knitwear flat in shade so as not to distort the shape. On top of a clothes horse portable washing line is recommended.
- Try to never hang your knits as they will likely stretch, always store neatly folded. Avoid centre creases when folding.
- Take care when getting dressed. Take your jewellery off and keep your hands closed as your arms travel through the sleeves to ensure you don't accidentally snag your sweater
- Purchase a knitwear de-pilling comb if necessary.
How to use your Cashmere comb —
Refresh your LM cashmere or woollen garments with this pilling comb in these simple steps.
1: Lay your garment on a flat surface
2: Smooth out creases and pull the fabric taut
3: Comb in quick and light strokes in one direction (take extra care on chunky knits)
Lee Mathews wool garments are designed to be worn again and again. Made from luxurious natural fibres, our knitwear essentials are a lifelong addition to your winter wardrobe, so enjoy and keep your LM Knitwear in the best possible condition by following these simple guidelines.
LM Cashmere — Cashmere is arguably the softest and most luxurious natural fibre in the world. Its superfine properties make it softer, warmer and more isothermal than sheep's wool, with the ability to be worn directly against the skin. Knitwear made of natural fibres breathes more easily than woven fabrics; even leaving your sweater out to air will refresh it. Pilling or blobbing is an inherent characteristic of all-natural fibres. It does not indicate the quality of your cashmere but rather, authenticates it.
LM Miho Knitwear — Resourcefully and consciously made by upcycling post-consumer waste to limit the impact on our environment, the Miho in Spice is made from a blend of 55% fine wool, 23% recycled cotton and 22% recycled polyester. Milled in Italy this fabric is textural, airy and soft against the skin and has a luxurious look and feel.
The Miho in Husky and Nectarine is an Italian milled blend of 53% wool, 17% alpaca and 30% polyamide. This fabric is textural, airy and soft against the skin and has a luxurious look and feel. The alpaca hair provides a fluffy appearance, the wool gives the wearer insulating warmth and the polyamide allows the fabric to be easier to care for.
To keep knit in ideal condition, turn inside out before folding, hanging or washing.

With my free time I do something hobbies, and reading or play with a lot of basketball. In how to find local women hookups Liberty Lake, I like to travel a good deal. I have not been out of the U. S. considerably, but within the U. S. I have been all around the country to numerous destinations. I am interested in people who are ambitious and outgoing and honest. Additionally, exercising and being health conscience is also an important quality.
Sylvester put his hands on mine, obviously noticing the change of my saying, and explained, " I'm proud of you for taking ownership with this one, Pumpkin. Call him at least try to make amends. " It took me a while to get up the gumption. I stared thinking about what I needed to say and how I expected our trade would go and sat in my room. Sylvester poked his head in my room to view my progress from time to time, waiting for me to make my move.
Give up any neediness you might have. Needy people are imbalanced and unstable people, because their happiness awakens greatly on someone else, rather than a steady sense of self worth. If you are projecting a vibe which you'll be devastated if somebody doesn't want to be your friend or romantic partner is going to be extinguished.
Happy moments are infrequent but are delivered to us for an excellent reason. Women are the ones for being those who find their pleasure in masculine pursuits, while guys care. The reason we are requesting you to bask in this moment is because it typifies the happiness. Sometimes, life doesn't offer that many chances on a day to day basis to feel that contented and you have to remind yourself of everything you are capable of feeling in the way of authentic joy. By doing this exercise on a regular basis, you can remind yourself of your capacity remind yourself of priorities and to feel delight. These are significant in a world.
Writing profile essays will take thought, some time and energy. You could be a naturally talented writer, or you can be someone who struggles with a Liberty Lake Washington, but do not worry. outlined above, do your research and then follow the guidelines listed below and you'll have the ability to write essays on your own.
A fantastic example of this process is currently prostitutes walking the streets hit. While we played outside, I was once as the pitcher, acting in fitness class. One of the guys on the team drilled a line drive and nailed me in the shoulder. If my mind sensed the ball was headed for me any time I acted as a pitcher, my reply, was really fast. That's my subconscious thoughts sending info into my conscious mind saying, " Get out of the way! " The kicker is that your head doesn't decide whether is real or valid. It is going on history- - a ball strikes you- - DUCK or MOVE. That fast, a smidgeon of fight or flight strikes in and you are from danger.
Put your mobile phone away so you can give your full attention. He would like to feel as ifyou're interested in getting to know him and that he is more significant than anything your phone might be showing you.
It can be tough to listen without throwing on your two cents, as I am ifyou're a natural talker. Learning some questions to ask to keep the dialogue rolling will prevent you from getting those moments if you are not a talker. The questions will permit another to maintain the conversation rolling.
OkCupid is a site that is free andyou're able to meet many great people on the market. It's sort of different and fun since you have to answer casual sex project stretched of different questions on your own, everything from ethics to sensual desires to faith, personality, how you feel about money, etc. . Then you can wheelchair friendly local hookups Liberty Lake WA these questions to fit with individuals. Also you can check profiles to see how they match up with yours.
The first time was in Redondo Beach, California. She came to my hotel and we went out for drinks. As we were talking I could see that she was analyzing me. I understood what she was thinking. She most likely knew that this would be a 1night deal. We would not find each other again, and she was okay with a one night stand. She did end up spending the night with the apparent happened along with me. She gave me a kiss and said goodbye. I advised her to call me when she was in Dallas. I doubt I will ever see her again.
Since you are mindful of the way asyou're linking with that individual in which the person you are seeing is calling you in the same path, there's an inclination to get a closeness to grow before you know it. The moderate ceases to be the fundamental element and when an individual presses you for data that you need to provide quickly you may neglect certain elements out unlessyou're decently ready.
Another example that is dreadful. The girl is a female, fell in love in a girl- heterosexual in a conversation, which looking with a guy for acquaintance. Explaining, but not meeting the comprehension, the lesbian has constructed a male pretend that entirely corresponds to the ideas of her heterosexual passion about a man that was true. Under this fake, she achieved her goal and entered for the heart of her one.
A woman should never tease about a subject that might be sensitive or offensive to her. Is comfortable with her teasing should you do 20, only if you understand the girl. Subjects comprise her body, her looks, her pals and faith. Imagine you go as much as a girl and as you are talking you point to her friends and state" with buddies like I don't think you get laid that often. "
Another lesson I learnt through my relationship life, would be to never jump into anything until I am completely sure. Narcissists, bad boys, and psychos are quite glib about commitment from the first few months of calmness but shortly after neglect to take the relationship. Before you declarehim'theone' THINK! Would you weed the poor boys from the decent ones? Well, it is not quite as simple as you might think but boys have red flags which will force you to tread carefully. For example, I have begun to realize that manipulators are inclined to be over communicative mostly. Dudes on the other hand get in touch and are genuinely active. This is the dude that will pick up his phone to phone you in only having a silent and precious session with you, personally and invest his time. The man worth your online dating sites gay and casual local hookups Liberty Lake WA not force a feature on you. He call for last minute meetings, will rarely cancel dates or perhaps alter strategies. He appreciates your schedule and understands your time is as important as his. Since you may presume, the poor Liberty Lake WA would be the reverse.
How to Make Use Of Your Criteria is it getting a clear idea of what you want Liberty Lake WA reddit site for local hookups to yield results and you dates, it's also likely to save you a bunch of time. For sites like Match or OKCupid, this requires some upfront effort, but it streamlines the process and allows you to send messages out in a quick fashion. The first step that I use on those sites is to produce a filter that is hard. I filter the outcomes by distance, age, body Liberty Lake WA free hookers video, no children, and sort the results. When they haven't signed over the previous week in their accounts, I don't bother, as those discussions either go catch dragged on and on hot fuck buddy tumblr for her to react. Once I have my Liberty Lake Washington sex hookups local I scan through the results andbegin'hiding' each profile I certainly would not have a physical attraction to. For many, see more photos in order to make an educated choice, but for on those profiles can just click away and I may want to go back later. Now, the only profiles that'll show are those of any new girls who sign up to the website and girls whom I find appealing. This makes a timetable of when it is possible to cancel your subscription to the site and produces an easy means of keeping track of who you've sent messages to. Take months, when it can narrow down and get some rapid dates? Unless, you need to keep this as a continuing supply of dates.
Thus, how can you prevent making mistakes because you apply the wrong mentality? You just have to stick to what the term says, therefore if it means leading for you, it means altering your mindset to make sure that things come to you, this AFTER. Try to listen everything only AFTER you've worked on mindset and your own mindset. If a lot of internal work is required for the mentality and mindset to change, for the tuning it's required to have a method( those which are usually called" techniques" ) , but in addition an open mind and predisposition to make things come to you.
The Opening Email the goal of the opening email is of course to evoke a favourable response. Although in reality, this is not always the situation she must be engaged from the start. Fascination should boost, make her inquisitive, be challenging and above all it should prompt her to reply.
You can set aside two weeks. This usually means no dates, no more quick checks on messages and certainly no logging into Relationship Programs. If you've been getting near anyone, try and watch them before your break or tell them you are moving away- - don't simply local hookups them wondering where you have gone. Use the opportunity to do all the Liberty Lake give my number to local hookups you've been failing. This may mean seeing your loved ones or doing something for yourself. You will Liberty Lake WA best place to find local hookups renewed and excited about getting back to dating, After the break is over. On occasion a fantastic new beginning means trying a site that is new. New opportunities are meant by new members.
In the cases I switch to Line. Why? Line is your messenger that she uses with her friends( and that I really do with mine) . Confidence is simply created by line. You are not this guy on Tinder anymore, but arab street hookers braves she is friends with on Line.

Reporter Becomes Relatable Legend After Appearing Sans Pants on 'Good Morning America'
"They're shorts, I promise."
The work from home lifestyle does not include pants, unless you're a Good Morning America reporter. In that case you wear a suit, so that America can, indeed, have a good morning. And you don't try to half-suit it like ABC reporter Will Reeve, who accidentally showed a little too much thigh on GMA and ultimately suffered extreme internet consequences.
The pantsless incident shocked the nation on April 28, when the ABC reporter hopped on a call to discuss how drones were being used to deliver prescriptions to retirement homes. But Reeve seemed to be relying a little too much on the chyron to conceal the fact that he was only wearing what he later claimed on Twitter to be shorts. These "shorts" were much more apparent when the duel screens returned and Reeve chatted briefly with host Amy Robach.
Although I'm sure many Americans noticed something off about his unform, public discourse on the matter really took off when Twitter user Adam Graham posted a photograph on Twitter.
It's becoming increasingly apparent that we're all starting to crack in lockdown, and so incidents like these, under current conditions, are much less off-putting. But Reeve still owned up to his behavior and recognized its ridiculousness with a few good-natured responses. He also posted an explanation.

Each day I prayed for my husband to love me again.
After fifteen years together, he walked away from me, and into the arms of another.
I didn't know how to cope. I didn't know my worth. I didn't know how to exist without him by my side.
All I wanted was for him to come back to me.
Then, Jackson Emery appeared.
He was supposed to be a distraction for my mind. A summer fling. A confidence boost to my bruised heart.
We were perfect for one another, because we both knew we wouldn't last. Jackson didn't believe in commitment, and I no longer believed in love. He was too closed-off for me, and I was too damaged for him.
Everything was fine, until one night my heart skipped a beat.
I didn't expect him to make me laugh. To make me think. To make my sadness somewhat disappear.
When our time was up, my heart didn't know how to walk away.
Each day I prayed for my husband to love me again, yet slowly my prayers began to shift toward the man who wasn't right for me.
I prayed for one more smile, one more kiss, one more laugh, one more touch…
I prayed for him to be mine.
Even though I knew his heart wasn't destined to love.

"I've read about boys like you in books, ya know," she whispered, her fingers slowly spinning spirals on my chest.
"Oh, yeah? What did those books teach you about boys like me?"
"Well…" She bit her bottom lip, and with a small inhalation, she whispered, "They taught me to stay away."
"Then why are you so close?"
She tilted her head up, looking me straight in the eyes. "Because in those stories, the heroine never ever listens."
"And then there's trouble?" I asked.
"Yes, and then there's trouble."
From the way she said those words, I knew trouble was exactly what she was in search of. We were the classic cliché. She was the good girl next door, I the monster from around the block. We were perfect opposites for the perfect storm, and she was asking me to be her next flaw, her greatest mistake.
And, well, who was I not to live up to her request?
"I could destroy you," I warned.
"Or save me."
"Is it worth the risk?"
"Isn't it always worth the risk?"
The more she touched me, the more I wanted to touch her back. I wrapped my hands around her wrists flipping us around so she was now against the wall with her hands above her head. "I have rules." I leaned in closer, lightly brushing my lips against her neck. God, she smelled good, like peaches and my next sin. "You can't break these rules, either." My tongue rolled from my mouth and circled against her neck before I gently sucked her skin.
She shivered at my touch. "What are they?"
"Rule one," I whispered, my mouth moving across her collarbone. "You never stay the night."
"Rule number two," I said, dropping her left arm to the side. Taking my hand to the bottom of her blouse, I slowly raised it up and massaged her skin. "You never develop feelings."
"That's easy enough," she replied, her breaths uneven as I teased at the top button on her jeans. "I don't believe in feelings anymore."
I didn't know why, but that made me sad for her. I, too, didn't believe in falling for people, but that was my norm. Grace seemed the type to believe in something bigger than love, so the fact that her belief was completely gone was a bit surprising.
Maybe we had more in common than I thought.
"Rule number three…we don't talk about my life."
"Like ever?"
"And lastly, rule number four…" My mouth brushed against hers, and I slid my tongue slowly across her bottom lip. "If your favorite pair of panties get ripped, don't expect me to replace them."
Unanswered prayers……something Grace knows to the depths of her soul. For 15 years – Grace gave up her dreams for the man she loved. Finn's dream overtook their marriage. Leading the couple through trials and tribulations that Grace was happy to dive into. The one thing that they couldn't achieve was the dream for a family. Miscarriage after miscarriage plagued the couple. Driving Grace into despair and leading her to withdraw from life. The last thing Grace expected was that longing would be the push her husband needed to seek comfort in the arms of another. An end to the life that Grace wanted, but not an end to the love that she possessed for the man that was supposed to be there through thick and thin.
With the realization that moving back to her hometown would start the gossip spreading, Grace headed to the one place where her feelings would matter the least. Back to the town that knows her as the preacher's daughter. A place where Grace is expected to hold her head high and roll with the punches. Insult and not so subtle whispering is directed Grace's way. Through it all Grace tried to keep her pride. A task that was weaning with each passing day. Until Grace crossed paths with Jackson.
Jackson was everything that Finn was not. As the local 'bad boy', Jackson has seen his fair share of women strolling in and out of his door. With his father always drunk beyond reproach, Jackson definitely doesn't possess the passion for life that one would expect from someone so 'popular'. As a mechanic at his father's garage, Jackson keeps to himself. Except for those stolen moments he can be found in the local bookstore or in the park. Grace knows there is more to Jackson that the hardened exterior that is shown to the rest of the town.
Nothing prepared Jackson for the moment he crossed paths with Grace. The little rich girl who was the epitome of everything that Jackson hated about this town and the people that resided in it. A 'princess' if you will to the 'royal' family…..the preacher's daughter. Everything that Jackson wants to 'hate'. That is easier said than done. Nothing about Grace is as it seems. The more that Jackson pushes Grace away, the more he becomes captivated by her heart. How can one person take all of the sadness away so easily?
Let me take a breath for a moment…….can I tell you how much I loved this book?? Every single time I pick up a Brittainy Cherry book – I know that I am about to be transported into an emotional journey that will be unforgettable. Disgrace was truly that kind of story!! Grace and Jackson are unlike any characters you have met before. In fact – their journey will consume you, capture you in its grasp, and leaves you with the realization that even the most broken soul can find redemption. This novel is another HUGE hit from Brittainy Cherry that I am not sure to forget anytime soon. What I can do is tell you to add this one to your TBR…or better yet…one click Disgrace TODAY!!

Saskatoon police and fire department staff say the estimated total cost of responding to this week's suspicious envelope scare at five locations around the city exceeded $65,000.
Deputy fire chief Andy Kotelmach estimated the fire and emergency response cost at just over $53,300 — about $39,470 for "direct apparatus costs" and $13,850 for overtime costs. According to police spokeswoman Kelsie Fraser, dealing with the suspicious envelopes cost the police service around $13,500 — including about $8,100 in overtime pay and callout expenses.
Starting around 12:30 p.m. on Tuesday, police and fire crews responded to five businesses during a two-hour window after receiving reports of packages containing white powder. The incident resulted in a list of charges — five counts each of public mischief, mischief and uttering threats to cause bodily harm — against Alexa Amanda Emerson, 31, who also goes by the name Amanda Totchek.
Police said they believe Emerson hired a man and a woman — who did not know the contents of the envelopes — to deliver the packages to five locations. The man and woman were later released without charges.
Fire Chief Morgan Hackl said this week that 40 to 50 fire department staff were involved in the response. Police Insp. Lorne Constantinoff said police resources were taxed to the limit by the incidents, but they were able to call in other resources to help.
Fire crews have dealt with suspicious packages in the past, but not "to this magnitude where there is five different locations in a two-hour period," Hackl said. Constantinoff said that responding to so many calls about suspicious packages in such a short time "really kind of caught us off guard. But I'm happy to say that I think we responded very well."
Emerson is scheduled to appear Tuesday in Saskatoon provincial court.
- Correction: An earlier version of this story incorrectly attributed a quote to Fire Chief Morgan Hackl about how so many calls about suspicious packages in such a short time "really kind of caught us off guard." The quote is now correctly attributed to Police Insp. Lorne Constantinoff. The Saskatoon StarPhoenix regrets the error.

Redskins Kick-Off The 2006-2007 Season With New High Tech Defense
March 19, 2017
As the 2006 training camp begins
the Washington Redskins are the first team in the NFL to apply a new
invisible defense -- the advanced antimicrobial protection of SportsAide.
"With bacterial staph infections like MRSA becoming more prevalent outside of the hospital setting and becoming more of an issue in amateur and professional sports, we wanted to take an aggressive approach to protect our players," said Bubba Tyer, Redskins Director of Sports Medicine. "We are fortunate to have an owner in Dan Snyder and coach in Joe Gibbs that believe in being proactive when it comes to protecting the team."
SportsAide is a state-of-the-art antimicrobial treatment for sports equipment and facilities that controls the growth of a wide range of all known bacteria, mold, fungi and algae.
There is now an active antimicrobial layer of SportsAide protecting the athletic training rooms, locker rooms, strength and conditioning center and player equipment at the Gerald S. Snyder Training Facility at Redskins Park.
"Using this high tech defense is just one step in keeping an environment safe from these types of infections," added Tyer. "It is important for everyone to be educated in simple steps that can be taken and really aid in the fight against picking up these types of bacteria like ... wash your hands often, shower after workouts and practice, and avoid sharing towels, razors, and daily athletic gear."
"Unlike conventional disinfectants that wash away and dissipate quickly, SportsAide durably bonds to the surface, actively fighting microorganisms 24/7," said SportCoatings president Art McWood. "Investing in SportsAide is investing in peace-of-mind that lasts for years."
SportsAide is one of a trio of products in the Sports Antimicrobial System by SportCoatings: TurfAide(TM), SportsAide(TM) and SportsAide(TM) Fabric Conditioner. TurfAide provides antimicrobial protection to synthetic turf systems; SportsAide protects athletic facilities and equipment; while SportsAide Fabric Conditioner provides antimicrobial protection, stain releasers and odor control to sports laundry like towels and uniforms.
The technology powering SAS is the AEGIS Microbe Shield(R) which has been safely used in consumer goods and medical applications for more than 30 years. Registered with the EPA, it imparts an invisible layer of antimicrobial protection that will not leach any chemicals or heavy metals into the environment and will not rub off onto a player's skin.
"What makes the AEGIS Microbe Shield unique is that it functions through a physical mode-of-action versus the chemical poisoning associated with traditional antimicrobials," said Curtis White, Chairman and CEO of AEGIS. "This physical mode-of-action prevents microbes from adapting to the shield so there is no ability for 'super bugs' to develop resistance."
Extensive warranties and service agreements are available on SAS applications to ensure the active antimicrobial layer remains intact.
A division of the Coatings Specialist Group (CSG), SportCoatings is the world leader in sports coatings offering a wide array of products that enhance, restore and maintain synthetic sports surfaces. For more information about SportCoatings or the Sports Antimicrobial System, log onto csgsport.

If you want to be physically strong, you go to the gym, lift weights, play sports, or go for a run. You work hard and put in the effort. The same holds true if you want to be mentally strong—only instead of working out at the gym, you exercise your mind.
There are small steps you can take every day to make sure that your brain is performing at top speed. Keep reading to find out what characteristics you need to develop to be a mentally tough person.
You Can Balance Your Logical Side And Your Emotional Side
Balance really is the key to living a full and successful life. If you deny your emotional side, your personal relationships will suffer, and if you deny your logical side, your professional relationships will suffer.
You Have Good Time Management Skills
Everybody wants to do it all, but doing it all isn't easy. Do whatever it takes to make sure you have enough time in your day for everything you want to accomplish. Make a schedule, set reminders on your phone, and stick to your plans.
You Can Adapt Well To Change
Change is inevitable, so it makes sense that the most successful people are the people who can adapt in the face of ever-changing circumstances. Change is hard, but the faster you learn to accept it, the better.
You Face Your Fears
Whether you're afraid of heights, public speaking, or clowns, the best thing you can do for your mental well-being is to face your fears head-on. It never pays to live in fear.
You Learn From Your Mistakes
People aren't perfect. We make mistakes. The worst mistake you could possibly make is not learning from your mistakes. Turn your missteps into opportunities for growth. Learn from the past in order to move forward.
You Separate Your Identity From Your Ideal Self
There's a difference between who you are now and who you want to be. Sure, we'd all like to be perfect versions of ourselves, but the best way to get close to that ideal is to recognize our own flaws.
You Are Excited About The Success Of Others
Jealous people never win. Genuinely celebrate the successes of others, because a rising tide lifts all ships. There is enough success to go around. Somebody else's victories don't detract from you or your efforts in any way.
You Stay True To Your Values
Whatever your values are, it's important to stay true to them. Don't compromise on who you are and what you believe to be important to impress anybody. Only you know what is acceptable for you.
You Value Yourself
Self-esteem and self-confidence are essential. Place value on yourself as a person, not just on what you have managed to achieve. You are more than your accomplishments and your milestones.
You Are Patient
Good things come to those who wait, and everything good in life is worth waiting for. Being mentally strong means that you know that success often comes after a long wait.
You Take Responsibility For Your Actions
You don't make excuses or try to pass the blame onto somebody else. You know when you mess up, and you work hard to correct your mistakes. You are self-aware and responsible.
You Turn Challenges Into Opportunities
When faced with a challenge, you don't shrink away or become overwhelmed. You develop a plan to attack the challenge and use it to personally level-up. Each challenge is an opportunity to grow.
You Are Thankful
Successful and mentally strong people know that they have so many people and opportunities to be thankful for. They never take anything or anybody for granted. You recognize what you have, and you don't complain about what you don't have.
You Stick To Your Strengths
You focus on what you know best and advise others when asked. You know where your strengths lie, and you use your strength to your advantage. You don't waste your resources on something you don't know anything about.
You Know How To Pick Yourself Up
When you are having a down day (or a down week), you know exactly what to do to pick yourself back up again—whether that's taking a long walk, making yourself a healthy snack, or taking a meditation break.
You Know What Motivates You
You are keenly aware of your motivations and what drives you to succeed, whether that's a desire to be recognized for your achievements or a desire to be helpful and helped in return.
You Ask For Help When You Need It
You aren't afraid to reach out for help or support when necessary. We all need a shoulder to lean on or expert advice every now and then. Needing help isn't a sign of weakness.
You Lead By Example
You know that the best way to lead any team or group is to be an example of strength and resilience. You show people, rather than tell them, what's expected of them.
You Focus On The Positive While Remaining Realistic
Many mentally strong people are optimistic, but blind optimism can get you in trouble. It's a good practice to hope for the best while preparing for the worst. Have a plan, but stay positive.
You Readily Give Compliments
Don't be stingy with your compliments. They are absolutely free! Everyone loves to hear what you genuinely appreciate about them, whether it's their fashion choices, their resilience, or their kindness.

Continuing the discussion from Greg on the Forum:
@eddie how do you suppose ID supporters come to missnderstand ID's view on this so thoroughly? Why do you suppose they are unwilling to correct their view?
We are reassured over and over again that ID is not anti-evolution. Denton and Behe are theistic evolutionists, yet we also here the direct contradiction in this quote all the time. What gives?

Professor Knaebel, the Röchling Group has been pursuing a strategy of growth for years now and has seen excellent developments in terms of sales, return, and profitability. What is the current situation?
In 2018, the Röchling Group was able to increase its sales by more than 16 percent to 2.14 billion euros. This growth in sales is due to an extremely strong performance by our three company divisions. With enormous effort, they managed existing customer orders and new projects. All of the more than 11,000 members of the Röchling family who have contributed to this amazing performance have earned my utmost respect and, most of all, my gratitude for their dedication to the company.
At the same time, we weren't able to fully achieve our profitability goals. In the Automotive division in particular, the current volatility in the market negatively impacted our results. But this has only spurred us on to do even better in 2019.
Do the figures from 2018 suggest that any fundamental changes need to be made?
When you look at the key figures of a company, you always have to think about the actual story behind the numbers. This means continuously asking yourself why you got these results, whether they are positive or negative and what consequences will come from them.
The Röchling company has been undergoing continuous transformation for almost 200 years, and for this reason alone we have plenty of ideas for the future that will make us better, that will change us or that will completely reinvent us. But one thing is clear: Röchling is a company in the plastic production and plastic processing industry, and that is something that will not change in the future.
However, it has to be said that the industrial landscape is undergoing significant changes due to external influences. This has led us to seriously consider the future trajectory of the company, because we have to respond appropriately to these industrial changes.
In other words, new demands require new solutions. Or, as the American economist Marshall Goldsmith put it: "What got you here won't get you there." This basically means that the recipe for success in the past will not necessarily yield the same results in the future. This motivates us to optimally prepare the Röchling Group for the third century of its existence.
Röchling has already strengthened its position as a system solution supplier. Is that the case for all three company divisions?
Röchling has been producing and processing plastics for various industries for many decades. As a result, we have accumulated an incredibly vast amount of knowledge about plastic. We are convinced that we can integrate this product knowledge and associated service expertise into the industrial value chain in a way that is useful and profitable for our customers. And we can do this for all industries.
All company divisions are reinforcing their position as system solution suppliers and will create more benefits and value for customers. At the same time, this is encouraging the company to develop more new skills or to enhance its existing ones, for example engineering services in the development phase or regulatory competences.
"All company divisions are reinforcing their position as system solution suppliers and will create more benefits and value for customers."
Is this an internal change in strategy or will it affect customers too?
You can't really call this a change in strategy because we have been building up our knowledge base for decades now. All we want to do is apply it more effectively to give greater benefits to our customers. If we now pool our expertise as a system solution supplier, we can look more closely at the customer's value chain. We are concentrating even more on the customer and their needs and requirements in their particular field. This is nothing new, but we have reached a new dimension in terms of our focus on our customers' needs and placing them at the center of what we do. In short, the customers and their needs have our full attention.
To what extent can digitalization help a company make itself virtually indispensable to a customer?
Digitalization is not an end in itself, and this is not how it is being pursued at Röchling. Instead, we are trying to create advantages using new digital tools. Advantages for the company and the employees by making work processes more effective and efficient. By the same token, we can also harness digitalization to generate additional benefits for our customers. This added value, provided it is also perceived as such by the customer, will result in closer and more intense working relationships. I would like to avoid the word "indispensable" in relation to this strategy, because in reality, there are very few things in life that are truly indispensable. And here at Röchling, we are not blessed with such hybris as to think that we are absolutely indispensable.
However, we do strive every day to utilize the tools of the digital transformation in such a way that that the customer no longer wants to do without the added value we deliver.
Does Röchling already have something to show for this? Please give us a couple of examples.
We divide the digital transformation into four areas: Smart Production, Smart Administration, Smart Products, and Smart Sales. We are working tirelessly in all of these areas to move the company forward. We have fully networked manufacturing units in our three company divisions with modules that we can extend to other production sites. In the area of company administration, we are closely examining which processes can be systematically automated, in order to relieve employees of monotonous work and to create free space for other activities at the same time. We are using new technologies, for example sensors with associated data management systems, in order to make our products more intelligent, more foresighted, and safer. It's also worth mentioning aerodynamic components on cars here, which automatically adjust to environmental influences, thereby reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Or intelligent pharmaceutical packaging that can help patients with the dosage and therefore prevent incorrect treatment. Finally, we are also continuously exploring new sales channels, and in 2018 for example we set up some of our portfolio on a digital trading platform to make it easier for our customers to order our standard products, therefore accelerating the processes in the supply chain.
We still have a whole range of other products in our development portfolio.
"We are using new technologies, for example sensors with associated data management systems, in order to make our products more intelligent, more foresighted, and safer."
On the Executive Board, you are responsible for the Medical division. Are you satisfied with the way this division has progressed since you took on the position one and a half years ago?
When I took over, we had three locations in Brensbach, Neuhaus, Germany, and Rochester, New York/USA, which operated in relative isolation from one another. We now have six locations. Two of them – Lancaster in Pennsylvania/USA, and Waldachtal in the Black Forest, Germany – we have acquired; we established the site in the Chinese city of Suzhou ourselves. All of these sites offer an extremely complementary technological competence profile and well-balanced customer structures. There has also been an extremely positive development in the collaboration between the sites. The added value that we can now provide to our customers as a global supplier in the medical industry has risen sharply.
I am very happy with the progress we have made so far. And I am proud to be able to work with such a fantastic team. We are well equipped for further growth.
Where is the journey in the medical sector heading?
Medical science has been following some significant trends for several years now, and these are heavily influencing our business. The trend towards minimalization will continue to grow. This involves achieving the desired therapeutic effect for patients using minimally invasive procedures with as little surgical access trauma as possible. Then there is the trend towards personalization or individualization. The patient receives an array of treatments that are tailored to their needs based on increasingly specific diagnostics. There has also been a consolidated effort to use increasingly modern materials and biomaterials. The diverse and positive material properties of plastics are still not being fully exploited in many areas of medicine. Finally, there is the trend towards biologization. This involves traditional materials being adapted to the biological requirements of the patient, so they are not only integrated into the body gently, but also biologically effective, for example when fighting against an infection.
We are working on all of these trends and providing solutions for them. So the journey in the medical sector remains exciting and thrilling. We are happy to be part of it.
Experts are lowering their growth predictions, confidence indicators are on a downward trajectory, and global trade is showing weak development. What does the Röchling Group need to be prepared for as a leading supplier of technical plastics? Where do you see the biggest challenges?
As banal as this answer may sound, for us it is the main driving force: the top priority for the Röchling Group in the future is to offer products that customers really need, that can be optimally integrated into the value-added chain and that are available easily, quickly and at a high quality standard wherever industrial value is being created – just as it always has been in the past. If we follow this premise in the future as well, then we will continue to be successful against all odds in the future.
Over the past year, the geopolitical stability in many regions has been in decline. These uncertainties also result in global trade ceasing to freely develop, which has an influence on our business. However, we have no choice but to play with the hand we are dealt. Accordingly, we accept every challenge we are given.
For this reason, we are also concentrating on continuing to defend and develop our technological lead and on finding solutions for all other challenges. I am not worried about the future.
"We have the highest respect for our environment and act accordingly."
Are you concerned with the topic of sustainability? What action is Röchling taking in this regard?
We are aware of the environmental problems being caused by plastic waste, even if we do not manufacture any of the products associated with this problem. We are following the principle of "zero waste production," whereby we strive to utilize any production waste somewhere else in the value creation cycle – if it can't be used in the same product group, it could at least be used in other products. In many cases, this is already working excellently. However, this is just one aspect of sustainability – of course, we need to be responsible when it comes to all the resources we use.
In addition, the material cycle, from production to returns with recycling, is an important issue for us in various projects. We want to ensure we stay abreast of a healthy and sustainable material cycle, as well as of our customers' needs. There are also countless other projects in the company and in the Röchling Foundation, which is entirely independent from the company, that address the topic of sustainability with a focus on plastic. Röchling has conducted its business very responsibly for the past 200 years, and it will continue to do so in the future. We have the highest respect for our environment and act accordingly.

That whole 60s unpleasantness with anti-war demonstrations and civil rights struggles is dead now – thank God!So does the last phase of the post-partisan rhetoric – baby boomers are dead and he allegedly invented centrism.
The rationalizations abund for why everything worth living and fighting for is just not cool anymore.
Garrychapelhill in his analysis of the AP "generational revolution" dreg asks
So if he's not a boomer, and not an Xer, then what? Hell, they've made all this other shit up, why stop now?
Why indeed? They have a new one indeed, with the help of a political consultant:
Generation Jones, as in the slang word 'jonesing,' or craving, and as in a generation that's lost in the shuffle.
Jonesers are idealistic, Pontell says, but not ideological like boomers. "Boomers were flower children out changing the world. We Jonesers were wide-eyed, not tie-dyed."
See? Idealistic, not ideologues – like those dirty hippies and their civil rights excesses. But is it new? Glen Greenwald has seen it before:
Because this election isn't about ideology. It's about competence. It's not about overthrowing governments in Central America. It's about creating good jobs in middle America.
Who said that? Bill Clinton? Nope, Michael Dukakis, in his acceptance speech :
"This election isn't about ideology. It's about competence." That was Michael Dukakis' battle-cry more than 20 years ago in order to prove that he wasn't beholden to those dreaded leftist ideologues in his party, that he was instead devoted to pragmatic solutions, to "whatever works."
and the media is celebrating this new fangled thinghie
celebrating as "remarkable" — that a national Democratic politician is alienating "the Left" and embracing the center-right in the name of transcending ideological and partisan conflicts — is about the least new dynamic that one can imagine. That's what the most trite Beltway mavens — from David Broder and Mickey Kaus to Joe Klein and The New Republic — have been demanding since forever, and it's what Democratic leaders have done for as long as one can remember.
So, those of you jonesing for social justice, ending of the war, equality – tough luck. You are passe, the idealist Jonesians want "hope" that looks good on teevee, not actual transformation.
Ideology is dead, long live tax cuts, bigotry, deregulations and unchecked executive power (psst! that would be someone else's ideology, but don't tell Joneses that – it's not cool)
Recently Dick Cheney, the original Darth told us that his cousin BO will keep all those illegal powers he, Dick amassed in the executive.
There was silence in the media and now, a justification follows. Coyly entitled
the article makes the case that
The flaw of the Bush-Cheney administration may have been less in what it did than in the way it did it—flaunting executive power, ignoring Congress, showing scorn for anyone who waved the banner of civil liberties.
Had they been more polite when breaking the law, everything would have been hunky dory since, the article assures us. A "flaw" people, not a crime…A breach of etiquette
In times of war and crisis, as presidents such as Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt discovered, the nation needs a strong chief executive
Geez, Newsweek! I guess I understand now why you never criticized Cheney when he was doing it, not even his lack of manners in "flaunting it"! You and the rest of the media were covering the "unitary executive" with the same awe as you are covering this "but this guy will use it for good".
Interestingly enough, Newsweek is silent on the fact that Biden was returning Dick's illegal powers – apparently, we couldn't trust him with all that. Teh One – that's another story all together.
I remember Hillary during the campaign, promising to restore the presidency to its constitutional tenure. I remember searching – and not finding – any similar vow from Obama, even if Newsweek in a fuzzy way implies the opposite
. Barack Obama was elected partly to cleanse the temple of the Bush-Cheney stain, and in his campaign speeches he promised to reverse Cheney's efforts to seize power for the White House in the war on terror.
Well, the voters thought they were doing that, but the media, paid by the same people they were paying for covering up for Bush and Cheney knew better.
Cheney's cousin was put in place precisely to continue the family business. The only truth in that article is the illustration, which is why I displayed it.
And this article is pretty much a rehashing of the arguments Cheney made in his interview with Rush Limbaugh, only with better illustrations

So many people commenting on this that have no idea how powerful sentry is... even the question is bad, blue marvel got knocked out by sentry while captain America help sentry walk the fight off... wwh was the strongest hulks ever been and went against a sentry that was very depressed... there isn't any earth bound hero's that could beat sentry..: superman would get bodied thanos and darkseid would get bodied it takes people above skyfarter level to stand a chance against the real sentry and not unstable down played sentry

The writers on him have said he was created to be the most powerful hero in Marvel. They reason we don't see him more is because he's not as popular as Thor or the Hulk.
Stable Sentry is way beyond skyfather tier, he is on the levels of HoM Wanda, but Darkseid would stomp and Thanos would also body.
Darkseid can't beat a being on par with HoM Scarlet Witch.
And neither can Thanos unless you're talking about one of his another million versions.

Today I'm sharing some of my favourite fun food recipes and tutorials for cute and easy fruit snacks. These ideas all make fruit extra fun so they're great for getting kids to have a go with foods they might be unwilling to try otherwise.
Older children might like to try making them themselves too as a fun edible craft that can be eaten at the end!
Last week I had the amazing opportunity to give a talk about healthy eating to the whole of my 9 year old son's school. We talked about what should (and shouldn't) be in a healthy packed lunch, which foods that our body needs to be healthy, the Eatwell Guide and finally I showed them a few of my fun food video tutorials, proving that healthy 'boring' food is in fact fun food in disguise!
I was blown away by how excited the children were about this and have since had several parents coming up telling me that their children had been so excited they'd actually been asking to try healthy foods that they'd always rejected before. Apples and eggs were top of the 'to try' list so it would seem that turning them into bugs and mice really does work!
Below you'll find links to 10 fun food tutorials that I hope will help your kids get excited about fruit too. They're all cute, fun and totally doable, I promise!
Apple Bugs – these were such a hit with the kids and they really are so simple to make! There's also a slightly different version without the hears and candy eyeballs here: Easy Apple Bugs.
Grape Balloons Food Art Plate – it's easy to make this cute food plate and it's sure to be a hit with your little ones!
Strawberry Roses – impress your family and friends with the quick and easy party trick!
Marshmallow Eyes – want to make food fun? Add eyes! This clever little trick takes seconds to do with the help of some mini marshmallows.
Plum Spider – we made this one for Halloween a few years ago but you can enjoy yummy fruit spiders all the year around!
Fruit Rockets – these are a extra fun around bonfire night or new years eve, but kids will enjoy fruit rockets any time of the year!
Avocado Chocolate Pudding Pots – yes, avocado is a fruit, honest, and your kids will have no idea how healthy these fun chocolate pudding pots really are!
Grape & Tomato Hearts – show your kids some extra love with this cute heart themed snack! Perfect for popping in lunch boxes too.
Watermelon Pizza – who doesn't love a good pizza, especially when it comes as dessert!
Raspberry Aliens – raspberries were made to be aliens, with the help of my favourite eye bento picks!
I hope you that you and your children will enjoy these fun food ideas – which is your favourite?
If you enjoyed these fun food ideas, please do pin this post so you can find it again!

Saturday, August 22nd:
click thru to join us for Camp Tubsy 2020…
Want to enter a boat and win fabuless prizes??
Boat Contest Categories are posted here! Sign up to enter your "boat" today… entries are limited, so don't dilly-dally.
Join us this August 22nd for the first ever virtual Tipsy event, hosted by Polly Superstar (longtime host of Goth Night) !
We need a bunch of you to support our work this year and next year by:
– buying 2021 Patron Tickets now
– donating and attending"Camp Tubsy"
– or making a tax-deductible gift at http://www.sfiop.org/donate/
Camp Tipsy is an annual rotten boat building contest and camp-out held at East Park Reservoir in Colusa County, California organized by the San Francisco Institute of Possibility.
Now in its 14th year, Camp Tipsy is a fun and family-friendly event. Participants build "boats" out of junk and enjoy boating and floating in the reservoir (or as we call it, Lake Lodoga). On Saturday at 2pm your wonderful, whimsical, stupid boats compete for valueless prizes in The Boat Contest.
Besides the boats, each night features musical entertainment under the stars!
Tickets for Camp Tubsy 2020 are now on sale – by donation!
Check the Facebook page for additional updates.
Patron Tickets for Camp Tipsy 2021 are now available!!
You must have a ticket to go to Camp Tipsy. Camp Tipsy's environmental impact and large presence requires a time-consuming (and costly) permit process with both the Bureau of Reclamation and Colusa County. So that's why all attendees must purchase a ticket to attend Camp Tipsy. We can honor our agreements, we can avoid people going broke throwing the thing, and we can create a huge event safely and responsibly… if everyone who comes chips in. Please help us by reading The About Page and the entire site.
Camp Tipsy is thrown by the San Francisco Institute of Possibility, a San Francisco based non profit (501-C3) arts/education organization.
Sign up for our mailing list and enjoy a couple letters a month to keep you up to date on all the SFIOP and Camp Tipsy happenings.
Buying a ticket early (now!) gets you email updates and instructions on how to have a great time at Tipsy and be in the know of all the particulars and guidelines to be a good citizen.

Our Response to the Coronavirus Pandemic
A letter from Greg Thrash
Update - 8/1/2020
I wanted to give an update on our situation and the results of this little fundraiser. As of now, like many other businesses in our area we have resumed some limited operations in our office, while maintaining social distance and mask-wearing. This is pretty easy since there's only three of us located here at present, and our desks were already scattered around the space.
For those of you who have used the discount to date, let me say thank you! So far we have raised more than $1700 for COTS!
We will run the code through the remainder of the year, thanks for reading and for you participation!
Original Post - dated 4/4/2020:
e*thirteen's USA headquarters is located in Petaluma, California. The current headcount is one: mine, plus one fuzzy, unruly dog. As with so many small businesses, we have directed our employees to work from home as instructed by the health department of Sonoma County for the duration of our shelter in place directive.
e*thirteen is an international affair with two offices in California (Petaluma and San Luis Obispo), Taichung, Taiwan, Traunstein, Germany, and Vancouver, Canada. There are only 35 of us in total - we cast a wide but thin net.
Petaluma is a charming town of sixty-thousand, the gateway to Sonoma County wine country, and the former egg capital of the world. Petaluma is known for its mild climate, its history of arm-wrestling, and its cameo in American Graffiti. We are due north of Marin County where mountain biking was invented(!), and Petaluma is the birthplace of Salsa Cycles, White Industries, Soulcraft and a host of others.
Like so many towns in America, we also have a tragically large and highly visible homeless population.
Two days ago at lunch I bundled up and headed out of the office on my cross bike. As I crossed town, I passed the COTS Mary Isaac Center, a local charity devoted to serving the homeless in Sonoma County. Several groups of two and three huddled on the sidewalks around the entrance, to generate a little warmth by their company against the cold snap in the weather.
As I rode by, I considered my good fortune to "shelter in place" in my warm house, in the company of my family. I spent the ride meditating on this thought, and by the time I returned to the office I had resolved that crisis be damned, e*thirteen should do something for these people - these vulnerable people, who are living on the street, for whom a coronavirus infection could equal a death sentence.
To my point: we're committing e*thirteen to reach out and help people during this crisis, and I'd like to encourage you to do the same. If you want or need any of the products we make, please use the code CORONASHELTER for your purchase. You will receive 15% off the price of your purchase, and we will donate 15% of the sale to COTS Mary Isaac Center.
If you'd prefer to donate directly to COTS Mary Isaac Center, you can do so here: The Fund for COTS
If you live in a different place on earth where homeless people exist, I'd encourage you to consider their well being and reach out and make a donation in your local community. Homeless Shelter Directory can help you find one.
Thanks for reading.

text: Account Closed posted about 4 years ago Hello everyone, When using the BRRRR strategy I always notice the refinance has many questions. A Home Equity Line of Credit seems to be the best option to use when refinancing a property using the BRRRR. I took out a HELOC on my first rental property in 2015. I got my HELOC from my credit union at 15 years interest only 3.75% APR with a promotions rate of 2.99% for one year on the first withdraw. I paid 0 closing cost as long as I don't close the account within 2 years and the appraisal was fast, I just needed $230K and it close in 4 weeks. I called many banks and done many research about applying for a HELOC or Conventional/other loans to refinance my next BRRRR property. The result HELOC WINS. 1- HELOC has zero closing cost. conventional/other loans you pay closing cost. 2- HELOC has 2 ways of doing the appraisal at no cost and faster. Conventional/other loans 1 way and sometimes at your own cost. 3-HELOC close faster 3-4 weeks. Conventional/other loans need at least a month. 4-HELOC offer a fair 4%-5% on investment properties. Conventional/other loans offer about the same if you pay points on some. 5-HELOC has no seasonal 6-12 month period. Conventional/other loan have the seasonal rule. 6-HELOC lets you refinance to increase your line of credit if you notice your home is worth more than it did when you first applied at no cost. Conventional/other loan is a period you must wait to refinance and most have a early payoff % or fee and if you get denied, you are stuck with paying the fees it took to process your application and such. 7-HELOC There's no mortgage loan limit of 4 or 10, you could have HELOC on all your properties. Conventional/other loans there is a 10 loan conventional limit then you would have to settle for a portfolio loan which the APR is much higher. HELOC has only 1 down fall, the property must be free and clear to maximize the loan, so if you have a HML, it won't work and most HELOC want first lien. PLEASE NOTE-not all conventional/other loans are what I had mention. I'm sure some of you got a great APR,no closing cost ,fast closing and etc, but majority of loans are in comparison.
