GO Graphix goes way back to 2004 when I published the very first website for my local social club in Earlsdon, Coventry after some life changing surgery left me unable to continue my career in construction. Needing to completely reinvent myself, I learned the basics through trial and error, picking up tips, tricks, solutions and confidence along the way. Twelve years and many charitable and commercial projects later, GO Graphix is now firmly established for HTML5 & CSS3 compliant websites and all your printing needs.
Whatever your project - from a simple poster to a fully operational commercial website - I'll work with you to get the best possible result, and be assured - I'm never happy until you are.
I'm delighted to be part of the team bringing a free monthly listings magazine for all things music, theatre and the arts in Coventry and Warwickshire.
Profits from the venture will be ploughed back into the project until we are in full flow, producing a new issue every month, then given over to a new charitable venture, providing musical instruments and tuition to schools and youth organisations across the region who can ill afford them.

Ride Share Driving For Lyft Atlanta
Lyft is my preferred ride sharing company even before Uber started started taking negative PR hits because of their corporate culture towards women employees primarily forcing their founder to step down. When I did not own a car, I relied on mostly public transportation and that means Marta buses and trains in Atlanta as well as relying on ride share. I bought a Chevy Cruze last year and now drive exclusively for Lyft although I am cleared for Uber too. Now 1,500 rides later, it has truly been an amazing opportunity to both meet people, see the Atlanta area and places I would probably never have visited otherwise, and to understand this new age, tech-driven business model...Read More

Go to healthpartners.com
It's there for all to see why buyers are increasingly turning to internet drugstores. It's extra-fast, easy and inexpensive. It's favorable and it confirms your protection and privacy. What's not to love? The reality is that, three % of web-based pharmas seem to be sound and follow accurate guidelines.
By seeing healthpartners.com review, the clients escape the threats of purchasing from controversial web-sites. If you think about it for a second: every single company tries to acquire more and more capital form trade to develop their business and there's no possible way they're making a profit by presenting prices that sound flat-out low. Even if it's a foreign site, the exchange rate can't be that beneficial. There must be a clear reason: the " medicine" that they offer are forged. They may have no APIs, so they won't cure you. It's actually the best possible scenario. They may consist of unhealthy, false additives. Maybe it's the wrong dose. Maybe the medications have not been stored under proper conditions and now they are contaminated. Maybe they are obsolete? There're various probabilities that might cause serious secondary responses, cause irredeemable damage to your physical health.
You can not neglect your health, you have to protect yourself. Frankly speaking: with the passage of time, these fraudsters are always polishing their sites to appear legitimate. From time to time you can not really know, every so often all the warning signals are extremely well disguised. That's the reason why we recommend using one of the most recognized pharmacy advisors is med-drugs.com. It's been around for a long time and it has helped thousands and thousands of online shoppers to save their wellbeing, avert being duped and likely hurt due to the condition of counterfeit pills.

It is there for all to see the reason why customers are increasingly turning to net-based pharmas. It is fast, accessible and low-cost. It's beneficial and it makes sure of your safety and privacy. What's not to love? As it turns out, three percent of net drugstores seem to be honest and follow correct guidelines.
By reading healthpartners.com review, the consumers eliminate the risks of purchasing from unverified sites. If you think about it for a second: every company puts in the effort to have more and more budget form sales to broaden their firm and there's no possible way they're making a profit by presenting price rates that look unbelievably low. In case it's a overseas site, the foreign exchange rate can not be that rewarding. There must be a clear reason: the " drugs" they're offering are forged. They may have no APIs, so they won't relief the pain. It's actually the perfect-case scenario. They may include harmful, erroneous ingredients. Maybe it's the incorrect amount. Maybe the medicines have not been stored under proper conditions and now they're tainted. Maybe they're past their expiry date? There're a lot of possibilities that will cause serious secondary responses, cause irreversible harm to your wellbeing.
You cannot overlook your physical health, you have to take care of yourself. Truth to be told: recently, these defrauders are always refining their websites to look trustworthy. Occasionally you can't tell for sure, every so often all the warning signs are marvelously hidden. That is why we vouch for using one of the most known drugstore guides is med-drugs.com. It has been around for ages and it has aided thousands of customers to protect their wellbeing, avert getting decived and possibly injured due to the condition of fraudulent drugs.

Sign ups for the beta are open now for PS3 users. Head to the Playstation Store to spin the wheel and take you chances! I can just taste the brutality now...
Okay, so I may have jumped the gun a little. From Software wasn't clear in their announcement, but at the moment only European PSN accounts are able to submit tickets. There will be a round for NA at some point because they've confirmed that the first round of the beta will start in North America, Europe, and Australia October 12, with a second round on October 27. So there will be NA signups, but when is unknown.
If you're not interested in waiting, people have reported making EU PSN accounts and submitting tickets successfully. Though, make sure the account is created for either Australia, Great Britain, Ireland, New Zealand, or United Arab Emirates. More updates as I hear more info.

The Centre Pompidou organises activities for children of 2 and teenagers: workshops, exhibitions, and meetings with contemporary artists and designers all help develop their interest in the arts.
The aim is to expand the imagination, using contemporary art and design as a means of developing a personal capacity for visual appreciation and a more sophisticated grasp of the world. Whatever the field concerned might be, each project is based on everyday experience and aims to develop the senses so as to enrich children's perceptions of the world and their experience of art and design.
The Centre Pompidou is happy to share its skills and experience, develop travelling exhibitions and other projects to promote learning and growth through play and hands-on experiment. First staged at the Centre Pompidou, the exhibitions can be adapted to each venue or used as a starting point for further educational activities. A project leader will visit to train staff in preparation for the opening of the exhibition at the host institution.
Intended for a broad public, the exhibitions are suitable both for school visits and individual children accompanied by their parents or carers.

Centre Pompidou

Mon Œil, the lead character in the Centre Pompidou's web series for children, asked five artists – illustrators and graphic designers – to come up with interactive installations enabling children to immerse themselves in their distinctive and colourful visual worlds. There are adventures in looking for young and old: hunting for motifs with Raphaël Garnier, discovering the architectural secrets of the Centre Pompidou with Vincent Broquaire, playing with reflections on Pierre Vanni's balloon, shifting about Paul Cox's mobile modules to get a better view, and creating coloured compositions with the forms conceived by Stéphane Kiehl. From animated films to visual arts workshops, each artist shares his perspective on making art.
Children of 5 and above
The aim is to use the sand on the board provided to construct, within the time available, the best or most interesting looking building using plans based on structures in the Centre Pompidou's architecture collection.
With sculpting tools, the heap of sand can become a tower, a factory, a bridge, a museum…
Each group then names its building and puts it on the drying table, before making way for the following group.
Children of 6 and above and their parents/carers
A round seed rolls about on the ground then grows in record time to become an extratoof: Blobterre has been born. Blobterre is a world of its own, with its own logic, its own systems, its own vegetation, inhabitants, smells, noises, etc.
This is a unique work that encourages exploration and questioning of the world around and about us. To enter it is to experience a moment of attention and discovery.
Children of 6 and above and their parents/carers
"L'aventure des objets" offers children an interactive experience based on the work of the artist Arman.
Immersed in a "poetry factory" conceived by designer Adrien Rovero, children explore together the gestures involved in the transformation of objects: collecting, accumulating, transforming, reorganising, etc.
Children of 3 and above and their parents/carers
"What circus" offers a playful and creative shared experience allowing children and parents to explore together the work of Alexander Calder, one of the stars of 20th-century sculpture.
Through manipulating coloured forms and everyday materials, and simple mechanical actions such as blowing, pushing and turning, young participants explore the ideas of balance and movement, composition, drawing in space, solid and void, performance, and more. The activities and presentations allow children to discover, question and experiment with Calder's artistic vocabulary.
Children of 6 and above and their parents/carers
Playful and participatory, this workshop invites children into an interactive world where they themselves become the creators.
The exhibition is designed around a simple device, the overhead projector. Today often relegated to the back of the cupboard, replaced by sophisticated digital alternatives, it is today being taken up by artists and put to creative use.
Children of 5 and above and their parents/carers
The game/artwork "Sous la lune II" by sculptor Miquel Navarro encourages children to explore not just the ideas of verticality, horizontality, form, and structure but also issues in architecture and urban planning.
The work takes the form of an imaginary city to be constructed of thousands of metal elements of different shapes, inviting children to build their own cities by combining the various forms conceived by the artist.
Children of 5 and above
From a fun and captivating thematic thread- the line, children are invited to look better their environment. Thanks to the workshop children can tranform it and discover pieces of art in relation to the same theme.
Children from 4 years old and families
This workshop offers a range of activities to develop children's sense of the visual while having fun. To frame a detail, to change scale, to creep up quietly on a subject (as Cartier-Bresson recommended), to play with light and shade, is to come into intimate visual contact with the world around, to come up close to things.
Children of 3 to 8 and their parents/carers
Organised around the theme of play, Recreation Centre is an interactive artwork consisting of pliable forms in felt.
Children are invited to manipulate, to play, to create their own games/artworks while inventing their own rules. Like the game of hopscotch, their sometimes abstract, sometimes recognisable compositions allow endless possibilities.
Children of 2 to 10 and their parents/carers
Erró makes his "mécacollages" by cutting out illustrations from scientific and technical journals and arranging them to produce Surrealistic hybrid creations. Using similar materials, the raw material for the workshop, children will use collage technique to produce self-portraits.
Children of 6 and above
"Module Home" is a programme of activities developed by designer matali crasset for the "Habiter 2050" event. The workshop invites children to imagine their everyday life in the future through the invention of objects and "living scenarios." Paper is cut and formed to produce a selection of modules that can be adapted to the requirements of such actions as "travelling", "sleeping", "cleaning", etc.
Children of 6 and above and their parents/carers
In 2010, the Centre Pompidou became the first major museum to create a space specifically for teenagers. This unique project offers children of 13 to 16 an inventive and ever-changing programme that addresses their distinctive interests, the goal being to encourage their engagement with the process of creation in the arts that they enjoy – more particularly through offering opportunities to meet with practitioners.
The project leaders at Studio 13/16 can suggest special programmes for the Centre Pompidou's partners: please contact us.
Teenagers of 13-16

Sony working with devs to bring digital versions of UMD games to NGP
Sony Computer Entertainment CEO Kaz Hirai has said the firm is currently in negotiations with various developers to bring digital versions of already released PSP games to the new NGP system.
Speaking in a round table interview with Watch Impress, Hirai said owners of a current PSP will be able to redownload their titles onto NGP if still within the download number limits outlined by PSN.
As well as digital downloads, Hirai said packaged games for the system will be released via custom memory card format with a rewritable space so users can save and download data, similar to ones used with DS.
General memory cards will also be supported, according to a Sony representative, and in its current form, NGP will not support video output.
You can read more on this over on Andriasang.
NGP was announced earlier this week, and currently there isn't a confirmed price or release date – more was promised at E3 though.

Glandular support therapy suggests providing your glands with glandular products to keep them healthy. "Like Heals Like" was practiced by our ancestors to heal any organ in the body including the heart, kidney, lungs, pancreas, ovaries, adrenal glands and hypothalamus.
Adreno 160provides all-natural, nutrient-rich glandulars. These glandulars activate hormones that send vital instructions to every organ and tissue in your body.
Unhealthy adrenal glands activate the wrong hormones, adversely affecting your levels of cortisol (stress response) sex hormones, mood, and metabolism.
Organ meats like heart, liver, or kidney are seldom sold in Western restaurants.
But our early ancestors thrived eating these delicacies… and often saved the heart, liver, and lungs for the bravest warriors. Tribal chiefs took advantage of their medicinal and nutritional goodness to keep their bodies healthy and strong.
Even if you can't find organ meat in restaurants, many people don't like the taste of eating these organs straight up.Now you can reap the nutritional benefits of eating lung, heart, kidney and other organs without actually eating them… andfeel safe and confidentknowing our NSP formula is sourced from the highest-quality, organic animals.

>Fitness is a transient phenomenon. Everyone can get more fit. Conversely, everyone — even that morning jogger — can experience fitness declines. All it takes to lose fitness is decreasing training overload; that is, failing to continually stress muscles to improve their performance. This is why the diet and supplement industry is a multibillion-dollar industry. The unfortunate reality is that there are no true quick fixes; fitness is a lifestyle.
>Contrary to popular belief, there is no "best" diet or workout. Successful fitness programming is very personal. Everyone's body is unique to some degree; fitness programs have to be tailored to suit your individual goals and lifestyle. If you simply move a little more and eat a little better each day, you are destined to become more fit. Conversely, if you do the opposite your waistline is certain to expand.
>The only universal component everyone needs is a plan for success. All goals and self-expectations must be realistic and reasonably well suited to your personal daily grind. Here is a framework you can use to make a fitness plan customized to your own personal success.
>Recognize the causes of previous fitness degradation. If you haven't identified and confronted past reasons for fitness shortcomings, you won't be able to move forward in your relationship with your body. Review the basics: Determine how you will handle fitting in fitness when you are stressed, working long hours or are confronted with frequent social engagements that involve dining out. When you can successfully identify your pitfalls, you can take precautions against cheating on your body.
>Step 3: Figure out why you are where you are.
>Now it is time for your prescription. According to the American College of Sports Medicine, exercise is medicine. Your prescription must address both exercise and eating habits. It should start small and grow as you adopt a new, healthier lifestyle. Many exercises that can be integrated into your program are available in previous issues of Alert Diver or at AlertDiver.com. Adopting a fit lifestyle takes time. It is imperative you incorporate gradual changes to both your nutrition and exercise habits.
>Step 5: Identify your exercise and nutritional changes.
>Here are a few nutritional and physical-activity habits clients have found beneficial.
- Eat a bag of raw celery each day before noon to help ward off hunger. (Substitute any raw vegetable.)
- Drink water just before each meal.
- Make sure at least half of each plate contains fruits and vegetables.
- Box up a portion of restaurant meals before eating.
- Leave a few bites on every plate.
- Climb the stairs each morning and afternoon.
- Go for a walk at lunch.
- Add push-ups or sit-ups at the beginning and/or end of each day.
- Sign up for a community "fun run/walk."
- Become conscious of good posture; keep shoulders back and tummy in.
>Note: To avoid an increased risk of decompression sickness, DAN recommends that divers avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours after making a dive. Always make sure that you have medical clearance to exercise during your annual physical exam or following any changes in your state of health.

How to Succeed in Psychiatry is not a source of clinical information but a survival guide to help you through the first years practising psychiatry. This book covers the topics you won t find in standard textbooks. It deals with daily problems and practical solutions for young psychiatrists. Psychiatric training is less team based than other specialties, so there is less opportunity for learning from colleagues than one would expect: this book helps to fill that gap.
The book opens with an overview of psychiatry training, describing the similarities and differences among various countries. Subsequent chapters address the opportunities for research and how to publish the results. Psychotherapy and community psychiatry each merit their own chapter on training.
Next, the book guides you through the transition phase into a job, discussing opportunities in both the public and private sectors and considering how to choose the best career for you. It reviews important general considerations, such as ethics, professionalism, leadership and management, how to avoid stress and burn out, and how to liaise with other specialties. The book closes with an account of the role of psychiatry associations and continuing professional development.
Written by early career psychiatrists from around the world, this book provides invaluable first–hand experience to all those wishing to embark on a career in this exciting discipline.
- Practical tips for young psychiatrists starting their careers on the wards or in private practice
- Advice on the transition phase at the end of training, career choice and job opportunities

The answer is relatively "YES". Blogging is not the matter of time; it is moreover tactical, skillful. 2-3 hours a day will be enough for you as a part time blogger. The only privilege, you need, is the ultimate use of possibilities.
WordPress is the most popular blogging software, even our favorite. But it is a matter of great sorrow, most of the wordpress users don't know or use the secret speeding features. That makes them feel "wordpress and blogging" are so time-consuming.
Hey wait, busy bloggers need the following 7 lessons
Today I'm going to share 7 shining lessons that will make you realize, "Yeah, I can also blog in no time".
- Forget your mouse when writing, do everything with your keyboard
Do I sound crazy? Writing thoroughly without any distraction helps a lot. But how can you do such works like changing headings, inserting links, making bolds or italics without using a mouse?
You might be amazed to know yes, it happens. You can save a lot of your valuable time by performing these actions with a keyboard. In fact, it will take not more than a blink of your eyes.
Can't believe it? I think you didn't check the rounded question mark in your wordpress post editor. It is aligned with the other toolbar options. Do click on it to see all the keyboard shortcuts, you can use right away.
Need to change headings? No more uses of the mouse. Just place your writing point on a line and type the following keys:
– For H1: Ctrl/Cmd + 1
– For H2: Ctrl/Cmd + 2
– For H3: Ctrl/Cmd + 3
– For H4: Ctrl/Cmd + 4
– For H5: Ctrl/Cmd + 5
– For H6: Ctrl/Cmd + 6
Want to create text styles? A few more shortcuts for you:
– For Bold: Ctrl/Cmd + b
– For Italic: Ctrl/Cmd + i
– For Underline: Ctrl/Cmd + u
The Last but not least. Here are some extra shortcuts though the keys are not the same:
– For Strikethrough: Alt + Shift + d
– For Ordered List: Alt + Shift + o
– For Unordered List: Alt + Shift + u
– For Quote: Alt + Shift + q
– For Link Insert: Alt + Shift + a
– For Link Remove: Alt + Shift + s
– For Image Insert: Alt + Shift + m
– For More Tag: Alt + Shift + t
PS: (1) Ctrl (Control) is for windows, and Cmd (Command) is for Macintosh. (2) Make sure to place your writing point in the text or select the text before performing the shortcuts. (3) WordPress default visual editor supports all of them where the simple text editor wouldn't. (4) This is not the complete list. Click on the help button in your post editor for the full list. (4) Your wordpress version has to be 2.7 or above to run them.
- Moderate comments blazing fast using the keyboard shortcuts
Did you wonder you can moderate comment or bulk comments using your keyboard?
Typically we use the mouse to select comments, specify actions and click the apply button. Unfortunately, it is time-consuming as we can guess at the explanation. But if you moderate comments with your keyboard, you can be more flexible and make it done blazing fast.
This feature is available from wordpress version 2.7 to above. However, this is not activated by default. All you have to do is, navigate to Users > Your Profile from wordpress admin and check the label entitled "Enable keyboard shortcuts for comment moderation". When you're done, you can proceed to the next steps.
Now go to comments screen and practice the following actions by your keyboard:
– Next Comment: j
– Previous Comment: k
– Approve Comment: a
– Unapprove Comment: u
– Spam Comment: s
– Delete Comment: d
– Restore Comment: z
– Quick Edit: q
– Edit Screen: e
– Reply Comment: r
Need to moderate multiple comments at the same time? Don't worry, here are the solutions:
– Mark Comment: x
– Approve Marked Comments: Shift + a
– Unapprove Marked Comments: Shift + u
– Trash Marked Comments: Shift + t
– Delete Marked Comments: Shift + d
– Spam Marked Comments: Shift + s
– Restore Marked Comments: Shift + z
- Skip media library, drop media directly into post editor
How do you upload media for your posts?
You will click the "Add Media" button, move to "Upload Files" tab, select or drag the media into it, am I right?
Hey STOP, why are you working so hard to upload media. This is made so easy that you never thought. Just drag the media from your device and drop it directly into your post editor.
From wordpress version 3.9, you can just drag and drop media to your visual post editor for instant upload, bypassing the "Add Media" button. You can save your valuable time by using this feature.
- Don't write codes anymore, use auto embedding
You need to insert a YouTube video in your post right away. What will you do?
No doubt, you will open up the video in your browser, click the "Share" button, switch to "Embed" tab, copy the code and paste it on post editor. Or you will consider writing it by yourself if you're a web developer, isn't it?
Hats off to your hard labor. If you ask me, I will just write down [ video src=https://www.youtube.com/embed/t74gQHtEybM ] or even copy and paste the video link. It wouldn't take more than 10 seconds for me.
The latest wordpress versions support two types of auto embedding:
- Shortcode
- oEmbed
Shortcode: WordPress allows shortcodes to embed nifty media by a very little, wrapped with the third brackets []. You can use it in your post editor to bypass a long code.
But the shortcode has to be created first with the functions before you can use it. Though a few handy shortcodes are available in default. You can use them in your visual post editor:
– [ audio ], Example: [ audio src="audio-slug.mp3″ ]
– [ video ], Example: [ video src="video-slug.mp4″ ]
– [ gallery ], Example: [ gallery ids="294,102″ ]
PS: (1) There will be no space after the opening third bracket and before the closing third bracket in shortcodes. I've given them to prevent rendering here. Please delete those spaces to make it work for you.
oEmbed: This feature makes shortcodes totally down. Looks like wordpress has started to reflect our minds. Now you don't need to write any code, even shortcode to embed third-party media. Just copy and paste of the URL in post editor will do.
For instance, suppose a youtube video needs to be embedded. So what you have to do is, copy the video URL (ex: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t74gQHtEybM) and paste it into your wordpress editor. It will automatically embed it.
Unfortunately, it doesn't support all third party websites. oEmbed allows 29 specific sites including almost all popular items like YouTube, DailyMotion, SlideShare, Vimeo, Twitter, Scribd, Issuu, Instagram, Hulu, Flickr and forth on.
- No more finding or scrolling, use wordpress screen options
Did you notice the "Screen Options" button at the right top of your wordpress dashboard?
If you didn't, you've missed out a solid time-saving opportunity. Let me explain you why.
As usually happens in our case, we spend too much time in finding and scrolling between wordpress dashboard, post, page or comment screens. Do you know why? A many of the unwanted info appear where from we need to find our required one.
Sounds not so clear? Let's make it easy for you.
Your "All Posts" or "All Pages" screens might be scrawled with lots of unwanted columns if you're using plugins for SEO, authors or images. Normally it will be quite hard to find something, even puts extra pressure on your brain.
So why not cut out the less necessary columns?
This is what "Screen Options" will exactly do. Click on it from your particular page and tick on or off the labels you want to see or hide. You can do the same thing to your WordPress Dashboard, Posts, Pages and Comments screen. Use the flexibility, and you can save a lot more time.
- Don't resize images, let wordpress do it for you
How do you resize your images that you want attached to your posts?
It will be either a photo editor you use before uploading or the wordpress image editor you use after uploading, isn't it?
But that makes you do some extra works which will take some additional time. Why not let wordpress resize it for you, whatever the actual image size is?
Head over to Settings > Media from your wordpress admin. What do you see? Three image sizes Thumbnail, Medium and Large. Choose perfect sizes according to your theme or requirements.
So next time, when you will upload your image (any size), you can select sizes from the "Attachment Display Settings" (after upload) when inserting. It will save you more time as you don't need to resize images manually.
- Interlinking made easy, don't waste your time in finding URLs
How do you interlink your old posts from a new one?
Probably you will get the post URL from "All Posts" screen or manually visiting the post from your blog. Then you will copy and paste it into your post editor.
Unfortunately, that is the time-consuming method, and there is an alternative what will save all your interlinking efforts.
Click on the "Insert Link" button from your editor, and you will see an option entitled "or link to existing content". Click on it, and all your internal pages will be showed. Now you can search and select your post to link without even knowing the URL. That means it saves you more of your time.
There is a popular quote "Time is Money". I totally agree as time is the key to making money.
Therefore, it doesn't mean, busy bloggers only need these tips. I think every single blogger should know "How to save valuable time". They also need to implement these tips in order to lead an active, frugal blogging journey.
What do you say, what is your secret time-saving ingredient? We are eager to know it!

WordPress is a pretty good platform. Especially now with how much it's been adapted for different uses by the community and professional developers a like.
Not only that but most wordpress theme's now are responsive for mobile/tablet use too. Which is an added SEO benefit nowadays too.

Hi buddy, I personally liked all of your keyboard shortcut tips. They are indeed great time savers.
Here's another tip (not regarding shortcut keys but a productive tip for bloggers). I personally use and suggest to use distraction free writing tools like Zenwriter. Not only it helps you write faster blog posts but you can be an effective blogger.
Great share btw!
Abrar Mohi Shafee
Hi Anil,
Glad you find them useful! 🙂
Yes, indeed. Distraction free writing can save more time. Zenwriter sounds good. Haven't tried it yet but will do soon.
It's my pleasure. Thanks for leaving your comment.

Hi Abrar,
These are really helpful tips to the WordPress bloggers, i don't know about the drag and drop facility on WordPress, image re-size settings i do manually because of the convenience, rest of the tips about commenting shortcuts, keyboard shortcuts are useful.
Thank you for sharing such an useful article about reducing our time on WordPress.
Abrar Mohi Shafee
Hey Siddaiah,
Thanks for your comment. So glad to see this post has added some new info to your experience.

Hi Abrar
You are just amazing. Who would have thought that a keyboard can become a time management tool for bloggers. I was thrilled by the command buttons and what they can do.
Thanks for sharing . I will try these commands . Thumbs up

Hi Ikechi,
I think, Matt Mullenweg (the founder of WP) and the other associates are more concerned providing the fastest blogging experience. So these are some of their awesome works.
Thank you very much for commenting! 🙂

Great tips, Abrar! We use the interlinking tip already and it's awesome. We'll have to test some of the others you mentioned!
Abrar Mohi Shafee
Thanks for your comment. Yeah, interlinking from post editor is very time-saving. Hopefully, this feature and the others too will help to blog faster. I will recommend you to give a try.

Swadhin Agrawal
Hi Abrar,
congrats on your guest post. I loved the time saving tips you mentioned. It is all there, around us but we fail to utillise it. I liked the tip of screen options. I use image resize timely and not always as it leaves no more than three options.
When on laptop I don't think I am faster with the keyboard shortcuts than the toughpad.
thanks for the tips.
Abrar Mohi Shafee
Hi Swadhin,
Exactly, there are many unknown features around wordpress we barely know. We can utilize them to make our blogging journey more smoother.
Thanks a lot for your comment!

Your tips will be very helpful to Newbie like me. I will surly use all of the short cut key while working on wordpress. Once again thanks a ton

Hi Anant,
Finally I've found someone who is a shortcut lover and uses mouse less while working. I hope the tips will help you more.
Thanks for your comment!

Hi Abrar,
Congrats on writing a guest post for Dailyblogtips[dot]com. I enjoyed reading this. Being a complete newbie with WordPress this was helpful. I only knew a few of them.
I use Blogger but will try these shortcuts and tips if at all I use WordPress on sites which I write being an author. 🙂
Thanks for sharing. 🙂

Harleena Singh
Hi Abrar,
Those are some wonderful tips for WordPress bloggers 🙂
Ah…I've never tried using my keyboard instead of the mouse! I know someone shared this at the ABC group forums on my blog, all the shortcuts, as you mentioned, though I still need to try them out.
I didn't know we can even moderate comments using the keyboard shortcuts! That doubles our work of learning SO many shortcuts…do you remember them all?
Yes, I tried the drag and drop option at the post editor, though depends on your image size also. I need to check out about the trick about YouTube you mentioned. I've tried the re-sizing option earlier, but still prefer to work on the images on Photoshop to make it apt size-wise for my posts..old habits die hard! Yes, the interlinking of old posts is best done this way.
Thanks for sharing these wonderful time saving tips with us. Have a nice week ahead 🙂
Abrar Mohi Shafee
Hi Harleena,
Thanks for your compliment!
That is our habit. We kept using mouse all the time. So now mouse looks most flexible than anything else. Though, if we can make habit of keyboard, I bet it will save more time.
I totally agree. It will increase the amount of works in the first time, as we will need to remember them. But once they are in our hands, we can make most use of it.
Honestly, I don't remember 100% of them except the important ones. Among them, I really love to moderate bulk comments using keyboard. It's so helpful, you can give it a try too.
By the way, thanks a lot for your comment and opinion about the feature. Wish you have a nice weekend!

Blee Ng
Seriously, great article. I feel so dumb for not knowing some of these tricks already. But some of the other stuff you mentioned, I had no idea I could do those things so easily. And with the changing the default thumbnail, medium, and large media file sizes thing? That was genius. I am going to do that for sure and I know that will save me a lot of time. Thanks!
Abrar Mohi Shafee
Hi Blee,
No worries! WordPress is very comfortable by default. That's why we usually don't look for shortcuts.
All the best as you're gonna try them. Hopefully they will save your time and make life easier.
- Abrar Mohi Shafee
Thanks for these tips. I'll definitely practice some of the shortcuts. Actually, first I'll go to adjust my photo settings, for automatic resizing, although I am a bit worried about compression as I need my photos compressed first. Also, I'll have to investigate further into the Screen Options you're talking about, maybe that will be of use for me as well.
My notes: Instead of using Alt+Shift+a for opening the link box, I use an even simpler shortcut CTRL+k. I introduced it into my routine quite recently and it's improved my blogging life significantly! Moreover, CTRL+Shift+v pastes your text without formatting, which makes my life so much easier! That's another very handy shortcut I've learned and adopted recently.
Abrar Mohi Shafee
Hi Marija,
Thanks for your comment. Yeah, these are real time savers in many cases. Do try them, who knows both would be fit for you.
Aha! Then two more shortcuts come to the list, just as you suggested:
– Insert link: Alt+Shift+a
– Paste text without formatting; CTRL+Shift+v
I appreciate your time to add two more values here!
- Abrar Mohi Shafee
Abrar Mohi Shafee
Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the privilege to write on DailyBlogTips. I really appreciate your consideration.
As of now, I will keep myself active here on the comment section to solve all others problems. And once again thanks for everything.

Wave Race Blue Storm ISO
Nintendo Gamecube / GC GCN NGC ISOsGenre: Driving/Racing
Rating: ESRB: E, PEGI: 3+, OFLC: G
How to Play this Game ?
Quick Navigation:
Game Description & Reviews:
When we first saw Waverace 64 for the N64 I remember it left us impressed for the water effects never created before and how it was affected by the jetskies. So when this game arrived to Gamecube we were expecting so much from it, that it disappointed us a little. Maybe because it was basically almost the same as the N64, the jetskies didn't have a big improvement graphically, but the water gained a much better reflection of the trees and the other competitors. The game is fun to play, the AI from your opponents gets harder and harder and the controls are ok, with some glitches when we try to make combo movements or even some basic maneuvers like a flip or a 180. If you like racing games, this one will please you, other than that, it is short and repetitive. Could have been better.

Noxious fumes rattle Morant Bay
Jolyn Bryan, Gleaner Writer
Nauseating fumes still lingered around Rum Store Plaza, Morant Bay, St Thomas, several hours after an explosion that left passers-by and office workers in need of medical attention yesterday.
Firefighters responded around 9 a.m., to reports of noxious fumes coming from the vicinity of the Tax Administration office on Church Street.
Assistant Superintendent D. Morris from the fire department explained that the cause of the fumes was an old, rusted cylinder containing chlorine, used by the National Water Commission (NWC) to purify drinking water.
Businesses and residences within 200 feet of the explosion were evacuated and the area was cordoned off with the help of the police. Scores of persons who had been exposed to the fumes had to be rushed to the Princess Margaret Hospital. As many as 50 individuals had to seek medical attention after being affected.
Kevin Sutherland, a cookshop chef, was one of the first to be affected.
"I felt like inside my stomach was melting. I was weak and I couldn't breathe. They gave me tablets and an injection, and put me on a nebuliser 'cause I have asthma," he told The Gleaner.
Percival Smith, who lives in the dwelling where the cylinder exploded, said, "The container deh here from before me. It never do nothing yet. It not even move. But me hear the hiss and then a loud sound, and me run."
Businesses along the busy Church Street, including the St Thomas Parish Council, were forced to close their doors, though several restaurants and bar reopened shortly after the street was reopened to traffic.
A team from the NWC's head office in Kingston removed the cylinder for safe disposal. It is believed that an accidental blow caused the worn cylinder to rupture. The fire department has given assurances that the danger has passed and all businesses have been cleared to reopen this morning.

In this series, NerdWallet interviews people who have triumphed over debt using a combination of commitment, budgeting and smart financial choices. Their stories may even inspire you to pay off your debt.
Living within your means is one of the most important ways to secure financial health. Cait Flanders — the blogger behind caitflanders.com, formerly Blonde on a Budget — learned that lesson the hard way. In her early 20s, she racked up debt totaling nearly $30,000.
Cait paid that off in about two years by monitoring expenses, reading an encouraging book and cutting down on unnecessary purchases. The debt-free freelancer now spends her money wisely, and on her own terms.
Here's her story, related to us via email.
What was your total debt when you started your repayment journey?
Cait: In 2011: $28,000 total, including credit card debt, student debt, car loan and personal loan.
What is your outstanding debt today?
Today: $0. I've been debt-free since May 2013.
» MORE: Find out when you'll be debt-free
How did you end up in debt?
I was living a lifestyle I couldn't afford and used credit cards like they were free money. I didn't shop much, but said "yes" to every invitation to go out for meals and drinks with friends and used credit to pay for it all. I also made a few big-ticket purchases, like buying all brand new matching furniture when I was only 23 and a car when I was 24. It was totally indulgent, but I was sold on (and got stuck in) the minimum payment trap.
Nerd tip
What triggered your decision to start getting out of debt?
I was maxed out in 2009 and consolidated all my consumer debt into a personal loan at a lower interest rate then, but continued to overspend and found myself maxed out again in 2011. After months of ignoring my credit card statements, peeling back only the corner of the envelopes to see what the minimum payments were, I finally looked at the numbers and realized I had no choice but to get serious about paying it all off.
» MORE: How to eliminate your own debt
What steps did you take to reduce your debt? What resources or services did you use?
I started simple by tracking my spending (on paper) for three months, so I could see where my money was going. As I continued doing that, it became obvious where I could cut back so I could put more money towards debt. I read one book, "Debt-Free Forever" by Gail Vaz-Oxlade, and used her tough love to stay motivated. Aside from that, I just continued to track my spending and cut back where I could. I paid off all my debt in two years.
Nerd tip
How has your life changed for the better since you got out of debt?
It has changed in so many ways. My debt felt crippling, at times, and I know it held me back from doing so many things. The first big change I made in my life was I started allocating money in my budget to travel. I had always wanted to travel, but never seemed to have money to do so before. Now, it's a huge part of my life. But perhaps the best way it changed my life was that it gave me the opportunity to quit my day job and work for myself. I would never have felt comfortable doing that if I had the weight of my debt on my shoulders.
How to eliminate your own debt
Create a plan to get out of debt and give yourself the freedom to pursue other financial goals. If you're balancing several different types of debt, like Cait, NerdWallet recommends using the debt avalanche strategy to pay it off in the shortest time while maximizing savings on interest. Here's how to do it:
- Pay off high-interest, or toxic, debt like credit card balances and payday loans first.
- Tackle lower-interest debt like student loans and mortgages next.
Consolidation is another possible approach for people with multiple debts. It rolls several debts into one new one with a lower interest rate. Two possible options are a 0% balance-transfer credit card or a personal loan. Estimate your interest rate with a personal loan calculator.
But if you're not careful, you could fall back into bad habits like Cait did before she worked her way out of debt. Try what ultimately worked for her: Stick to a budget and track your purchases closely to keep your spending in check. The 50/30/20 budget is a good starting point.

I was due to start my pack of birth control on May 17, I had unprotected sex on May 18 and started my birth control on May 19. I may have missed 3 doses through the three months but not back to back. I'd say it was like 15 days apart give or take. I started my placebo pills on August 9 and still haven't seen Mother Nature. I took a pregnancy test on yesterday but it was negative. I start my new pack of pills today. I've been taking these pills for over three years and never missed my period. What could possibly be going on...?

Image courtesy of Cleveland State University Cleveland Memory Project Full disclosure . . . this little girl on the miniature turnpike ride at Euclid Beach in 1964 is NOT me, but it could have been. Yes I am old enough to remember summers at Euclid Beach before it closed in 1969. Now that Cleveland Metroparks has acquired the old Euclid Beach land, I have been doing some research into several defunct amusement parks whose land is now part of, or adjacent to one of our reservations.
Many of our readers will remember the mid to late 20th century fun at these parks, but the beginnings of the American style amusement parks go back to the late 19th century. Early parks were often owned or promoted by street car companies to encourage riders to ride their cars further afield than local businesses and homes. Without the street cars, and later the automobile, these parks would not have become so popular.
What could you do at an early amusement park? You could listen to a band concert or join in the dancing at huge pavilions designed to hold hundreds of guests. Merry-go-rounds, Ferris Wheels and Scenic Railways (later known as roller coasters) were in existence as early as 1890. Fun houses and penny arcades offered their diversions, too. Large roller rinks were as popular as the dance pavilions. "Exotic" animals, ethnic villages, (complete with "natives") provided the pre-movies, pre-TV, pre-internet crowds with glimpses of other cultures and lands. (Although, sadly, they often perpetrated stereotypes and xenophobia)
New inventions such as the phonograph, moving pictures and electric lights were highlighted and promoted. And, the rides themselves became ever more intricate, larger, faster and higher as technology advanced. On the flip side, natural elements such as rivers, creeks and lakes (manmade or natural) provided the same chance to relax and enjoy nature as we do in our parks today.
Euclid Beach was one of the best known and longest running of these Cleveland area amusement parks. Owned and operated by the Humphrey family from 1901-1969 they pioneered several ideas in amusement parks. Admission was free, guests purchased tickets for individual rides, allowing those who had no desire to spin around or plummet up and down to accompany family and friends and enjoy other activities. An important aspect of Euclid Beach was the prohibition of any type of alcohol. This was a change from the other, earlier parks. Unfortunately, segregation was also a policy at Euclid Beach. African-Americans were admitted, but banned from some of the facilities, and the dance pavilion was partitioned. This situation led to protests and conflict over the years. Image courtesy of Cleveland State University Cleveland Memory Project
On the west side of Cleveland, Puritas Springs Park was a smaller park than Euclid Beach, but was a popular choice for locals. The park itself was created by the Gooding family in 1898 on the grounds of the mineral spring water company. John Gooding brought one of the first steam powered carousels to the area. The big draw at Puritas Springs for most of its existence was a roller coaster named The Cyclone. Puritas Springs sat on the top of the Rocky River Valley and the Cyclone plunged on a steep drop down into the valley. The Cyclone was the highest and fastest (80mph) roller coaster in Cleveland and it thrilled guests from 1928 until 1958, when a disastrous fire led to the closure of the park.

Two other parks operated on land that is now part of Cleveland Metroparks in the late 1890s and early 1900s. While these parks are less well known today, they drew hundreds of guests during their brief existences. On northeast of today's Washington Reservation was Forest City Amusement Park. This park also featured a stadium where an early Cleveland football team, the Panthers, played. I have not been able to find photos of Forest City Park and would love to hear from anyone who has some! At the northern entrance to Rocky River Reservation was Scenic Park, the site of one of the first "Scenic Railways" in the Cleveland area. This roller coaster was very tame by our standards, but it included scenic tunnels showing murals and sculptures lit by electric lights activated by the wheels of the train. For riders in 1895 this was an amazing novelty. Today the Marina sits on the land once occupied by Scenic Park. Image accessed at Cleveland Historic Maps at http://peoplemaps.esri.com/cleveland/ The Scenic Railway included replicas of far away places like Port Arthur in Manchuria (northern China)
Another disclosure . . . I do not miss the rides at Euclid Beach as much as I miss the taffy. The Humphrey family started out as a candy and popcorn makers and they made the most unique, delicious taffy in the world. Luckily, although the park is no more; the taffy is still made here in Northeast Ohio by the Humphrey family and is now for sale at local stores, including occasionally at our own Earthwords.

Innovation Awards 2020
Finalists Announced
EDGE 2020 Goes Virtual

Sydney - June 13, 2008 - Websense, Inc. (NASDAQ: WBSN), a global leader in integrated Web, messaging and data protection technology, today announced that it has been named a leader in the data leak prevention (DLP) market by Forrester Research (Forrester Wave™: Data Leak Prevention, Q2 2008)*.

The report states that Websense was one of two vendors who "came out on top" because of its strong go-to-market strategy. Websense earned top scores in the areas of strategy, integration and product functionality for monitoring and protecting data-in-motion across the network.

In the report, analysts write, "Content security front runner, Websense, sits atop the DLP market thanks to its balance of first-class product capabilities and solid strategy."

The report goes on to say "The company leverages its partnership with Safend to offer a DLP product consisting of both a network appliance and endpoint software… The Websense Data Security Suite now protects across data at rest, data in motion, and data in use... The product's analysis engine is language-agnostic and includes templates applicable to many regions… Websense has bold, compelling plans to significantly expand upon its current capabilities as a leading content security vendor."

One of the biggest challenges for companies today is protecting ever increasing amounts of sensitive data. Websense Data Security Suite enables organisations to identify and protect their information when it is at rest, in motion through email traffic, or in use in business documents.

Websense Data Security Suite does this by automatically and accurately discovering where sensitive information resides and then applying contextual intelligence – understanding of who is accessing what data, where they are attempting to send it and through which channels – to enforce business policies. The resulting increased visibility over information flows enables customers to improve business processes and better protect their essential information.

"Research in this report shows that data loss prevention is becoming an integral part of organisations' security strategies and broader information management initiatives," said Phil Vasic, ANZ Country Manager, Websense. "Being recognised by Forrester as a leader in this important market, and the accolades Websense Data Security Suite has received from others for helping organisations discover, monitor and protect their valuable information is a testament to the investment we've made and continue to make to protect our customers' essential information."

DHPA History
The Indiana Division of Historic Preservation and Archaeology promotes the conservation of Indiana's cultural resources through public education efforts, financial incentives including several grant and tax credit programs, and the administration of state and federally mandated legislation.
The Division facilitates state and federal preservation programs and is the staff of the State Historic Preservation Officer.
The chief services of the Division are:
- The statewide survey of historic buildings, districts, and landscapes. The DHPA is the repository of National Register nominations and other materials related to the statewide survey.
- Environmental Review of state and federal actions affecting historic and archaeological properties and resources.
- Administers programs for protecting and preserving Indiana's prehistoric and historic archaeological sites and the valuable information that they contain. The DHPA is the central repository of archaeological records and reports for the state and also houses the state's official computerized database of archaeological site information.
- Technical assistance to owners in the restoration of historic properties, including those owners seeking state and federal rehabilitation income tax credits.
- Grant assistance for historic preservation projects.
- Technical assistance to local preservation commissions, including administration of the Certified Local Government (CLG) program.
- Historic preservation and archaeology education, including sponsorship of Archaeology Month, Historic Preservation Month, the Underground Railroad Initiative, Historic Theater Initiative, and other ongoing educational programs.
- The Indiana State Historic Architectural and Archaeological Research Database (SHAARD) of the Division of Historic Preservation and Archaeology (DHPA) allows users to search information on known historic resources throughout Indiana. The data contained in SHAARD was collected from previously conducted cultural resource inventories, National and State Registers listings, research projects, and cultural resource management project reports.
The first historic preservation movement in America is generally recognized as efforts in the late 18th and 19th centuries to collect, restore, and commemorate artifacts, structures, and places significant to the founding of the United States. These efforts were primarily undertaken by private citizens and organizations, and not through the federal government. In fact, government was often the vandal and not the protector of historic and cultural resources. Although Congress did pass Acts protecting ruins, monuments, and battlefields, and established the National Park Service and the Historic American Building Survey; some of the most devastating effects on historic and cultural resources resulted from other federal legislation. The 1949 Housing Act provided funding to clear slum areas of urban cities with the intent to spur private development. "Urban renewal" contributed to wholesale demolition of historic buildings and residences in what were once thriving downtowns. The Interstate Highway Act, passed in 1956, created the Highway Trust Fund and gave cities and states financial incentives for the construction of interstate highways. To facilitate transportation from suburban residential development to city centers and between urban areas, these highway projects also contributed to the irreparable destruction of historic downtown and rural landscapes.
This obliteration of historic resources with the aid of federal funds mobilized the preservation movement to promote their cause, not only with the public, but also within government. The result of those efforts was the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. The Act recognized "that the historical and cultural foundations of the Nation should be preserved as a living part of our community life and development in order to give a sense of orientation to the American people," that the expansion of development exceeded the means of government and private preservation activities, and finally, that most preservation endeavors had been initiated and financed by the private sector and it was "necessary and appropriate" for the federal government to expand its activities and support for historic preservation. The Act, designated to the jurisdiction of the Secretary of the Interior, created the National Register of Historic Places, provided for matching grants to assist state preservation programs, designed a process to address federally financed projects affecting historic and cultural resources, and created the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation. The Act provided for partnerships in preservation with state and local governments, and the Interior Secretary asked each state and territorial governor to appoint a liaison officer to assist with the new directives and mandates. Each state would prepare a comprehensive and coherent historic preservation plan and designate a State Historic Preservation Office and Officer (SHPO), create a state review board, and establish mechanisms for public participation. The SHPO would initiate statewide surveys to identify and document historic and cultural resources and nominate eligible properties to the National Register, and to educate and assist the public to promote preservation. The SHPO is an official partner with the federal government, the Department of the Interior, and the National Park Service.
In Indiana, the General Assembly had recognized important historic properties since the acquisition of the Tippecanoe Battlefield in 1836. The territorial and first state capitols, Native American mounds, and canal systems had been designated as State Memorials, and historic artifacts were collected by the Indiana State Museum. The agencies responsible for these memorials, artifacts, and properties, including the Indiana State Parks System, were merged in 1919 to create the Indiana Department of Conservation which became the Indiana Department of Natural Resources in 1965. To carry out the liaison responsibilities of the Historic Preservation Act, the Director of the DNR was designated as the SHPO. The DNR and the Indiana Professional Advisory Committee on Historic Preservation issued a report in 1972 advocating the continuation of a 1969 survey of historic sites and structures in the state and the necessity of promoting preservation in the public and educate people on the importance of historic and cultural resources in order to build grass roots efforts. To accomplish preservation goals, the report recommended continued cooperation with the U.S. Department of the Interior, the assistance of professional advisory groups and other agencies of state and local governments, the promotion of private preservation organizations and activities, the standardization of forms, procedures, and policies of the program, the periodic review of the plan to update and revise it, and the advancement of the needs and responsibilities of the DNR in order to develop a comprehensive historic preservation program. In 1981, the General Assembly established the Division of Historic Preservation and Archaeology within the DNR whose mission was to carry out the federal-state partnership of the 1966 Historic Preservation Act. The Director of the DHPA was named Deputy SHPO and charged with the daily oversight of the state's preservation programs and policies.
The DHPA is now comprised of six individual, but coordinated, sections: Registration and Survey, Archaeology, Architecture and Tax Credits, Grants, Historic Structures Review, and Special Projects. Information on the DHPA's mandates, programs, services, and staff is available throughout this website.

In a recent medical Qigong treatment, the patient I was treating came to Qigong by Quist due to her upper arm pain. Her medical doctor says the pain is from using a computer mouse at work.
Before her treatment, I solicited help from unseen sources to help assist and guide the treatment of this client who has not been able to get pain relief in the normal manner. Two beings showed up for this treatment; an old Chinese Master of Acupuncture, and another Being I call the "Microbiologist". I call him this because he seems to work at a very granular energetic level of the body.
I began the assessment, her upper arm had a cold rounded tennis ball shaped energy bump right in the spot where her pain was located. I was directed by the "Microbiologist" to start by using an energy ball and placing it in her upper arm. So I took some energy from the crown above my head, and rolled this energy into a ball.
I was then directed to infuse the energy ball with the color green, along with the feelings of love. I could feel the Microbiologist place his hands on top of mine and the energy ball was filled with love. He guided my hands to the source of my patient's upper arm pain, and then together we gently "mooshed" the energy ball into her upper arm. I could see the energy as it had the consistency of silly putty, and we were filling the empty spaces in her arm with this energy. The tiny spaces within the muscles were being filled with this "energetic silly putty" of green love energy. The minute spaces in the walls of the arteries,veins,and the hollow areas of the bones were all being filled with this new healing.
I was then directed to create another energy ball, but this time infusing it with the color red. Again, this Being held and direct my hands, filling the energy ball with love, and then we gently pushed and massaged the red energy into those tiny minute spaces within the cells in her arm.
We then repeated the same process of creating another energy ball, but this time, it was infused with yellow.
At the end of this process, I could see the "Microbiologist" connect these colors inside her arm, to the energetic liver, the energetic heart, and the energetic spleen. It was was as if he was wiring and connecting these cells to a long-term energy solution.
The "Microbiologist" then stepped aside and the "Chinese Master" stepped in to help with the rest of the treatment.
I feel hopeful that by using these energy balls, my client will find some relief with her chronic pain.
