Coralax were going to be the new epic archetype for the villainous crowd in City of Heroes. Now, they're just another low-level villain group with some memorable looks to them. But for the next twelve days, they can be something more -- namely, they can be your new clothing. No, you aren't getting missions to skin the Coralax and wear what's left as a hat. The Paragon Studios team is taking the opportunity to give away the never-before-seen costume code for the aquatic humanoids via social networking through December 23rd, skipping the weekends.
While similar giveaways have happened in the past, they've always been with costume codes from a recent convention. The Coralax costume is totally new and unprecedented, and that means whoever snags one owns a unique part of the game's history. Since the team won't be announcing where the codes will be dropped next, it's up to players to keep a close eye on Twitter, Facebook, and the forums to try and snag a code in time. Good luck to City of Heroes players eager for the new costume, because nothing says the leadup to the holiday season like a mad dash for something everyone wants.

TSH helps regulate the thyroid gland. It is produced by the pituitary gland in response to thyroid hormone levels in the bloodstream. A high level of TSH means not enough thyroid hormone production, and low TSH indicates too much thyroid activity.
Thyroxine (T4) is the main hormone produced by the thyroid. A Total T4 test measures the overall level of T4 output by the thyroid gland.
Free T4 affects tissue function in the body, while bound T4 does not. This test is often used in congunction with TSH testing to measure the extent of hyper- or hypothyroidism.
Vitamin D deficiency can lead to a variety of problems including hypertension, joint pain, muscle weakness and even heart disease and stroke. This test measures both the biologically active (D3) and supplemented (D2) forms.
Up to 10% of the population in the U.S. has iodine deficiency. Iodine is essential in healthy thyroid hormone production, brain function, breast tissue, fetal development and more.
Tests only Estradiol (E2), Progesterone (Pg), and Testosterone (T). Good for a simple low-cost re-test of these hormones. In saliva.
Tests only Estradiol (E2), Progesterone (Pg), and Testosterone (T). Good for a simple low-cost re-test of these hormones In Blood Spot
Measures the essential nutrients iodine, selenium, lithium and bromine, plus the toxic heavy metals arsenic, cadmium, and mercury. This test does NOT include: zinc, copper, magnesium or lead. Dried urine only (no blood spot).
Measures the toxic heavy metals cadmium, lead, and mercury, as well as essential nutrients zinc, copper, selenium and magnesium. This test does NOT include: iodine, bromine, arsenic or creatinine. Blood spot only.
The best overall assessment for your thyroid. Combines the four most clinically useful thyroid function tests, giving a more thorough assessment compared with monitoring TSH alone. Measures fT4, fT3, TSH, TPO.
Profile Assesses risks associated with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Tests in this profile include: Insulin, High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein, Total Cholesterol, HDL and LDL Cholesterol, Hemoglobin A1c, and Triglycerides. (Blood Spot Test)
Comprehensive Toxic & Essential Elements Test measures 4 of the most common toxic heavy metals and 7 essential nutritional elements that can be hazardous in high quantities.
For people requiring routine thyroid screening plus an thyroglobulin to assess iodine status and total thyroxine (Total T4).
Comprehensive test for thyroid, adrenal and reproductive hormones. 12 tests - same as Advanced Plus but without the Vitamin D test.
Designed especially for men, this is an overall assessment of male hormonal status, vitality and performance. Tests four glands: thyroid, adrenals, testes and prostate. 10 tests including PSA. (No Vitamin D test included.)
Thyroid testing plus Elements testing. Allows your practitioner to see if you have too little or too much iodine and other nutrients essential for thyroid health. Also tests for overexposure to mercury, bromine, lithium, arsenic and cadmium- any of which can affect the thyroid.
Identifies specific hormone imbalances associated with excess weight gain and obesity, including hypothyroidism. Aids in early detection of insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes and certain heart conditions. Test also incudes adrenal and sex hormones as well as vitamin D and TSH.
Our most cost-effective, comprehensive diagnostic test for thyroid, adrenal and sex hormones. 14 tests including Vitamin D2 and Vitamin D3
Overall assessment of female health and vitality in blood spot. 10 Tests in blood spot only.
Overall assessment of male health and vitality in blood spot. 10 Tests in blood spot only.

Dr. Bruce Fischer
I will be your voice in the South Carolina House of Representatives
Hello Friends,
My name is Bruce Fischer and like many who were born outside of the beautiful State of South Carolina I was fortunate enough to be able to come to live where my heart really belongs, in Longs, South Carolina, and this is where I have been a resident for the past 11 years. While I was born in New York State, South Carolina is my home.
I joined the Army in 1966, went through helicopter flight training and was deployed to Vietnam in 1968, just in time for the Tet Offensive. Upon my return from overseas I became a flight instructor, and I served there until my honorable release from active duty in 1970. I went on to earn my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Stony Brook University and continued serving the needs of patients in private practice and in several large hospital systems back home and here in South Carolina. I have 2 grown children whom I love very much.
I proudly ran for the Democratic nomination for Congress (SC-07) in 2018. I am a dedicated, service-minded individual, convinced that we can all work together for the betterment of our community, our County and our State. I am an Equal Rights and Civil Rights for all proponent.
I am currently concerned about the proposed Bill in the Columbia which would allow lesser-qualified, non-certified teachers to be hired by schools, when the schools in our State have traditionally performed in the lower ranks as compared to other States. Is this really what we want? Teachers here in Horry County are rightfully concerned about the pending legislation. We cannot lower our educational standards, nor teacher compensation, and rationally expect students to improve or succeed. These are our children. I therefore support the inclusion of teacher-proposed amendments to the current legislation, as I will for any and all future Education legislation in the State and at the local level.
I also am concerned over the unfettered growth in Horry County. Growth is good in general for businesses and worker salaries, which I want to support vigorously. However, there needs to be proper planning that takes into account the geographic constraints and the limits imposed by inadequate infrastructure. We need consistent growth, as opposed to a boom and bust economy.
We have seen an increase in flooding over the past few years. Adding more pavement increases the amount of runoff which may only worsen the problem, but with thorough planning we can minimize this effect. Traffic along the Grand Strand in the winter is now almost as congested as it is during peak tourist season. We must effectively plan upgrades in our roads and highways in order to handle the current traffic volumes, as well as the anticipated increases, so as to enhance service to residents with the least possible detriment to businesses and private properties.
These are just a couple of my immediate concerns. Please stay engaged so that we can all work together to improve the lives of our children, our environment, our incomes, and our overall way of life here in South Carolina.
I would appreciate your vote in November of 2020.
Dr. Bruce Fischer, Candidate for South Carolina House District 56
I will propose stricter state laws to deal more quickly and more harshly with domestic abusers, and I will propose increased funding for safe shelters, treatment for the victims, and care for the children affected – who are often also the victims.
I will continue to work with others across our state to fight discrimination and bullying – and to make equality for everyone a reality.
We need to pay teachers better in order to attract and retain good educators. I can't think of a better investment than in our students – the future of South Carolina.
I strongly support the movement toward greater (and ultimately complete) reliance on clean, renewable energy.
All development is not bad, but proper planning for the future is essential. The loss of our the flood plains, swamps, and wetlands – is an invitation to have more storm water flooding and overflowed river banks.
This practice needs to be changed by creating a truly independent commission to re-draw district lines based on the most recent census.
I am a responsible gun owner, with a Concealed Weapon Permit. The goal should be for sensible legislation aimed at reducing the current number of gun-related deaths.
Some of the most vulnerable people in our society desperately need basic healthcare – and expanding Medicaid can help to ease suffering and lead to more productive lives.
Oil spills happen, and will continue to happen. The coastal counties of South Carolina are especially vulnerable to economic disaster if they are harmed.
We must stop thinking about addiction as a "moral" issue, and recognize it as a medical and psychological problem. Addicts need treatment, not incarceration.
We need to enact and support legislation to reduce the amount of single-use plastic products that we buy, and so casually discard. All of us need to encourage each other to use re-usable bags, refuse plastic straws and styrofoam takeout containers, recycle much more than we do, and work together to clean up litter in our neighborhoods.
Voting is our American right! We need to make it easier to vote by instituting early voting at more than one location, improved accessibility for our elderly and disabled citizens, new secure voting machines, and automatic Voter Registration to allow and encourage more young people to vote.

MORE than £1.2 million is being invested in a series of schemes in Gwent encouraging people to ditch their cars and strap on their walking boots or get on their bikes.
The investment is part of a £60 million Welsh Government project encouraging active travel.
And among the first group of investments are £864,000 for a new bridge across the River Usk between Llanfoist and Abergavenny and £390,000 for a continuous footpath between Ystrad Mynach and Nelson.
A scheme setting up an active travel route between Pontypool and Mamhilad has also been handed £22,500.
Announcing the investments, economy and transport secretary Ken Skates said: "This funding will create new active travel routes across Wales, connecting people's homes to schools, jobs and their local community with the aim of encouraging more people to walk or cycle.
"I am allocating the first £10.36 million to local authorities across Wales for schemes to promote active travel, which supports our efforts as a government to reduce carbon emissions and improve air quality, while building physical activity into people's daily lives, delivering wider health benefits."
In total 24 schemes across Wales have been handed a share of the investment.

XBRL compliance enables better business insight
By Hannelise van Wyk, Enterprise Performance Management Engagement Manager at Decision Inc.
Becoming compliant with the XBRL (Extensible Business Reporting Language) is not something that has happened overnight.
The Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC) has been working on implementing the standard for the past several years. Unfortunately, even though the deadline for compliance (1 July 2018) has come and gone, there are still some local businesses struggling to get to grips with the new reporting requirements.
Many companies are still confused about what XBRL entails. There is a need to drive a strong data culture in South Africa for organisations to make sense of what they have at their disposal. XBRL can be an enabler to achieve this and make data more user-friendly for analysis to both the regulator and the industry at large.
According to the CIPC, digital reporting in XBRL will assist companies with filing their annual financial statements. And for the CIPC, it is enabling it to use the information at its disposal in better ways. Imagine being able to compare company data in an industry sector at the click of a button. Prior to XBRL this was not possible as it was a resource-intensive process of manually going through PDF (and other) documents to pull relevant figures.
XBRL can also provide investors with a much clearer view of what is going on in business today. Countries like the United States and the United Kingdom have been relying on XBRL for several years. But even though South Africa is slow in coming to the party, it is embracing the latest iteration of the standard (iXBRL) which is much more user-friendly to business people as opposed to the original XBRL format.
However, two major concerns remain. Firstly, companies need to carefully examine the software needed to implement XBRL effectively. How does the software fit into their digital roadmap? Smaller businesses can more readily embrace cloud-based options towards this. For large corporates, it is not an easy process to migrate.
And then there is the matter of cost. Not only do companies need to be concerned about implementation costs, but there is also license fees to be cognisant of. It is also in the former where complications can occur. XBRL is not something that can be implemented as a once-off and forgotten about. Instead, a business needs to create a sustainable process that is mindful of existing processes and systems. Every company will be unique in its adherence to and implementation of XBRL. Having the right partners and people involved will be critical.

Alfalfa stems
Alfalfa (lucerne) is used in many diets for commercial rabbits that are growing or breeding during their short lives. It has a high fibre and calcium content. It is also high in oxalates. In diets for pet rabbits, it may be found in some muesli mixes to balance out the calcium deficient parts of the diet. Not all rabbits eat it, especially those with dental problems that do not have the perfect teeth that are required to cut through the fibrous stems.

When I think about how long I have been struggling with anxiety, I often say it started in the middle of last year. But in reality I had probably been struggling for a lot longer than that. Initially without realising there was a problem and then slowly transforming in to denial that there was a problem.
Life was difficult, and at times it was really really difficult but I just thought that was how it was supposed to be. After all I was a mother to two young children, working a 30 hour week in a taxing job, juggling childcare with a self-employed husband in a high pressured job and my own social life and hobbies on top. Of course life was going to be difficult. But I genuinely believed that I was coping, I had things under control and I was managing everything. In reality I was in denial and it was mega tough but it did all balance and that was what mattered. Then an issue at work arose and then it spiralled, all of a sudden I had been knocked off balance and there was no going back.
It started by feelings of sickness and that anxious rumbling in the pit of my stomach every time I went to work. Then I was on the verge of tears all the time. Then I couldn't concentrate, I became a bit paranoid. Then I started jumping every time someone came in the office door, the panic attacks kicked in when I drove up the ramp to the car park. Meanwhile, although I was struggling, I had absolutely no idea that this wasn't normal. I knew it wasn't enjoyable and I knew I had changed but I didn't really get it – or more importantly I didn't really want to get it. I didn't want to get what it meant. The trigger point was when I had a huge panic attack whilst working from home just because of an email I needed to send. I couldn't breathe, I couldn't sit down, I couldn't talk or write or function. I was petrified and alone and I didn't know what to do.
Luckily I had watched enough Casualty and medical dramas in my time to know that it wasn't a heart attack or anything more sinister. My rational brain was still alert enough to know it was a panic attack. I didn't know how to make it stop but I knew what it was. So I rode it out, and it did eventually come to an end. At which point I called my husband who eventually convinced me that it hadn't been a "normal" response to the task in hand and that I needed to speak to a doctor. He forced me to call and I made an appointment for the following week. From that point forward I recognised that I had anxiety and sought treatment.
Seven months on and I still have anxiety but to a different degree. Luckily most of the time I don't have panic and I have developed strategies to keep panic at bay when it tries to raise its ugly head. But unlike some physical illnesses, it has not been straightforward to treat and it hasn't been cured. In honesty I don't know if it will be cured ever or whether it will become a part of who I am and my character make up.
Things are very different now, whereas I was in denial this time last year about how I was feeling I am now probably a bit too far the other way. I am now more prone to over analysing every response and feeling, often mislabelling something as anxiety when it could be seen as normal behaviour.
Neither of these are healthy approaches, but anxiety feels a bit like being dropped in the middle of the ocean and being expected to make your way home. Like many of the most difficult things in life, it doesn't come with a manual or a definitive cure all prescription. Instead you have to make your way through the best way you can, making mistakes and developing survival techniques.
It's easy to get so caught up in the self-analysis that you lose perspective and start to think that you are more unwell than you actually are. That can then spiral in to belief that things are slipping and that you are taking a backwards step. That is incredibly disheartening and consequently rational thought is lost again. Bingo – that's exactly what the anxiety wanted, it wanted you to give up and succumb to its power.
When I take a step back and recover enough to restore the rational thought, it is easy to see that it was just a blip. But when you are caught up in it all then it can become quite overwhelming and often destructive. It could easily go the other way, but I feel that I have managed to keep something in my reserves which stops that from happening. Will that always work? Who knows, but it's the best I have at the moment and its good enough for me.
And you never know, maybe someday there will be a manual to help us all!!

Garden Route
The Garden Route is a well-travelled area of South Africa, it's the stretch of land, or mainly the roads on the land, between Cape Town and Plettenberg Bay. The route itself is filled with lovely historic and touristy towns, so even though the drive from CT to PB can be done in a day, people tend to take a few days to drive from town to town and stay over in the hundreds of B&Bs along the way.Add a comment
After our little jaunt at the Vredenburg Manor House and the surrounding areas, we headed two hours from Cape Town up the Western Cape near to a place called Shelley Point, just off St Helena Bay. I wasn't entirely sure what to expect here, we were still with Andrew's parents (his South African dad and Kiwi Mother) and their South African friends (who are approaching their 50th wedding anniversary but are like a pair of giggling loved-up teens), and we were staying in an amazing beachside house, next to a lighthouse. The only point on the agenda for the few days at Shelley Point was 'RELAX', something that all of us, especially the South African couple, who had hosted Christmas and New Years for 43 family members. FORTY THREE(!!!!!!).Add a comment

I've got a login item that in addition to a couple of regular text and password fields also has a very long note. Like 50 lines long.
This makes the whole login item long enough to not fit in the window and I get to scroll some and the notes section is long enough to get its own internal scroll too.
If my mouse cursor is over the notes section then the notes will scroll and if I want to scroll the whole item to get down to the web form details or look at the modification time I need to carefully place the mouse cursor in the tiny gap to the right between the notes and the scroll bar for the whole login item because once the note has been scrolled to the bottom nothing moves further.
The most interesting thing about this is that it does not apply when scrolling upwards again. If I leave my mouse cursor over the note and turn the wheel on my mouse to go upwards first the note scrolls up to the top and then the rest of the login item starts to scroll upwards too, just like I would expect it to have worked on the way down.
Here is a video to show what I mean: https://my.mixtape.moe/czgfaz.mp4

Hi @okand,
Thanks for reporting this.
Good catch, we'll need to give the note field more padding on both sides to give you more breathing room for scrolling the item.
I'm not sure why the scrolling down momentum didn't apply to the item, we're using the default behaviors. We'll check and see if we can fix it.
Thanks again!

This was just one takeaway from several of the top voiceover artists in the Washington DC region when they came together to speak at a Documentary Roundtable in May 2016 about how documentary filmmakers can work with talent. The joint WIFV/Docs In Progress Roundtable was held in partnership with WIFV's Talent Roundtable.Read more

What is the clearance valves on 09p702 003 f3 brigs and stratton
is that the compression stroke
It is important
to check again
(feeler guage.)
You lock it down…
I noticed you never did.
Thank you for the video, it was very helpful and thanks for the reference to the donyboy video. The 2 of you got me through my repair
thanks man great video
Roll tide
I broke the intake pushrod on my Intex should I worry about the book peace
3/8 not 10mm
very helpful !! Thanks.
The top valve is the exhaust and bottom is the intake. You can see the exhaust outlet on top.
Hi, a friend's 20hp Intek in a John Deere L120 is not starting without starting fluid. It will run fine after getting started. If it is shut off and then restarted it will start again. If you wait about 3 minutes it won't start on it's own. I've ran carb cleaner without luck (Sea Foam). Would this be a valve problem? It has 225 hours on it. Please advise. firstname.lastname@example.com
I don't understand the top dead center thing. So while you are spinning the motor, is it when the spring/piston is fully extended out, right before it starts to go back in… is that top dead center?
Nice video i like this one for sure
Yes i like this video because you had your camera very close up and you can see everything also i notice one valves up and one valves down the valves that is up top dead center you adjust first and then you turns the flywheel until top dead center again for the exhaust valves top dead center and adjust that valves what about the 6.5hp push lawnmower do you set the valves at the same gauges of 004
good idea on the drinking straw. thanks Murray Mayhem great video like it alot
i have a briggs stratton 11.5 horsepower engine on a swisher trail mower
is adjusting the valves the only way to reduce the compression? I have already broken one rewind assembly.
why did you redo it and not just re check the adjustment with the feeler gauge before loosing it all up again?

"Prophecy of Thol" can best be classified as a young adult (YA), coming of age story, written by Dawn Greenfield Ireland. It is a story centered around a young woman (D'lane) who is suddenly whisked away into a parallel universe where she has to utilize all her skill and knowledge to survive the recurring nightmare which has come true. As a listener, we are given the privilege of seeing this young woman grown into a more mature lady in all aspects. The audiobook edition is quite well narrated by Kelley Hazen who is a veteran to the craft with over seventy titles available on Audible; at the time of this review. It appears there may be an agreement between the author and the narrator as she has voiced all of the author's current audiobooks. If you are someone who enjoys a decent coming of age story, with a few twists, I think you may find "Prophecy of Thol" a book you will want to listen too. The book is over eleven hours of audio, so it is worth the time and credit if you are able to get past a few bumps in the road along the way.
Let me say up front that I'm not one who is a fan of either young adult nor coming of age stories. And, based on the book's summary, this is not made clear as I assumed I was a more in deep and complex science fiction tale. If you come to the book understanding where it is coming from, it may be less of a shock when you listen. I did want to say that the book's opening was what drew me in and kept me wanting to listen. The author did a good job of hooking the listener from the beginning. In the opening chapter, we are presented with a father telling his young boy about this mysterious person in a picture with odd looking creatures. It is like we are watching a flashback of events as the book unfolds. For me, the writing style felt more Young Adult (YA) based on the sentence structure, character communication, and the descriptive nature of the scenes or objects. At time, I felt that the author was overly verbose and did not give the listener enough creativity in their own minds. There were even a few items that seemed to be referenced incorrectly such as using Bluetooth as a device and not as a communications protocol, etc.
The characters, overall, seemed defined and multi-dimensional. At times, I felt the main character's family had just too many tragedies making it a bit too complex at times. Maybe this is due to my rather uneventful upbringing. Our main character also seems to be rather confused in her spiritual beliefs, and much of her faith comes by way of new age beliefs; including the power of crystals. The rest of the family, though loving to one another, seems quite dysfunctional as a whole. The author does a decent job of creating a new and unique world. We are shown very different creatures, some distinctive plant life, and various means of communication. The book felt like a modern day take on Alice in Wonderland set in a science fiction realm having dual suns. Although the book mentioned many different technologies, often these gizmos lacked details on how they worked or why they were created in the first place. I simply wanted more details on these items and at times less on the scene description.
The book was told as if it were read out of a diary. It felt more like someone was telling facts of events and not a grand journey. Yet, the book at times felt like it lacked personality, action, and suspense. Sure, there were elements of action and suspense along the way, however these did not seem to really surface until the last few chapter of the book. Apart from this, the tale felt like it lacked the more traditional story aspects keeping the listener engaged. That is not to say that the book lacked twists and turns, but it was not overly suspenseful nor mysterious as I would have liked it to be. I did like the author's use of switching back and forth between the two worlds from chapter to chapter. It was good to get an understanding of how the family was coping with the loss of their daughter/sister and the steps being taken to get her back. The conversations between the characters as times felt forced and rather predictable. The use of language also did not always match the characters age or personality in a few of the characters. It seems the author intended a couple of characters, such as Stanly, to be comedic relief, but this often did not work for me. He seemed less like a true scientist and more like the character Beaker from the Muppets.
The book's narration was what I would expect from someone having a number of performances behind them. The audio quality was solid, and I do not recall any issues with background noises or volume inconstancies. The many characters all felt unique and the voicing was dependable throughout the book. A few areas that I will say could have been improved were some of the younger character's voices and the voice of Stanely. At times, these voices were simply annoying, and you wanted to get past them as soon as possible. Other than this, the narration was spot on and professionally produced.
For parents or younger readers, I'm sorry to say that this book contains vulgar language which mostly occurs during the last few chapters. I was going to say that the book would be great for younger readers as the violence was not overly excessive and the romance was light and not overly sexualized, yet I was surprised that vulgar words were thrown in last minute. There was no reason these words needed to be added and I was quite surprised that the one character I assumed would not use vulgar language was the one who did. Apart from this language usage, I would recommend this to younger audiences. However, if you are offended in any way, I would advise you not listen.
In summary, the book was an average coming of age young adult story. If you go into it based on this understanding, or if you like this type of book, I would recommend it as long as you are not offended by the use of vulgar language. It took a bit longer than I would have liked to get into the meat of the story, but once there, the unique worlds, creatures, and events made the book interesting. If you are planning on picking up this book, you should be aware that it is the first in what appears to be a series of books. This is not clearly stated on the Audible page, so you should know that the book ends with many of the book's plots unanswered. There is some closure given, but not enough to call this a stand-alone title.

This past Saturday, I ran 10 miles for the first time in a LONG time. It was my friend Matt's 30th birthday and he was starting the day with a 10 mile run, so I decided to join him in the spirit of actually sticking with my training plan. Somehow, my sixth half marathon is coming up just three weeks from Saturday, so there's no more time for excuses! Not that I really had a choice with my minor surgery which sidelined me for two weeks, or getting knocked down by strep for five days, but I haven't been very consistent this go-round with training.
The day started with a 7:30am wakeup call, and I immediately made coffee and got dressed. I almost always have an english muffin with nut butter of some sort for pre-run fuel, but I haven't been keeping nut butter in the house lately because I can't trust myself around it. So, I tried something new-to-me before a run:
An english muffin with smashed avocado and sea salt. This has been one of my favorite things to eat recently, and it definitely did the trick as a pre-run mini meal.
I drove to Matt's house and we headed to the trail, and before I knew what I had signed up for, we were off. We ran on an area of the Mount Vernon Trail that I haven't run on in years, and it was hillier than I was used to. There was a water fountain at the 2.5 mile mark, then the 5.0 mile mark where we turned around for the out-and-back loop, so it worked out well for us to not have to carry water.
The first couple miles went by quick, but I felt like it took a LONG time to get to the turnaround point. Matt has been running way more than me lately, so 10 miles to him was no big deal, but for me it was definitely a stretch. Around the turnaround point, I took a new-to-me Clif Shot that I acquired at my last half marathon.
Which was fine. Vanilla Bean GU is still my fav, but the price was right on this one so I went with it.
Once we got to the 7ish mile mark, I was really ready to be done. I had to slow down a bit and mentally talk myself away from wanting to stop running. I kept playing mind games with myself and taking it one mile at a time, and soon we were at 8 miles and then 9. When we had less than a mile to go, Matt took off a little ahead of me which was good because I was able to finish the run at my own pace. And then, at long last, I hit the 10.0 mile mark and stopped immediately.
My body will never cease to amaze me whenever I run a double digit run. It is always a challenge in more ways than one, and I ALWAYS feel like a million bucks when it's over.
The one thing I forgot about was chafing! It honestly didn't occur to me that I often chafe on my collar bones when I run in anything other than a tank top, and once I stopped I realized my neck was super irritated.
Ouch. It's already gone down considerably since then, but I can guarantee you I will not forgot body glide on this weekend's long run!
Even though the run was really hard for me, it definitely helped me feel more confident about the upcoming half marathon. I am going to attempt 10 miles again this coming weekend, and I'm hoping it'll be a bit easier for me this time around. I know that the challenge was more mental than anything because I wasn't sore at all after the run or the next day, so I really just need to work on the mental part of things over the next few weeks.
Do you struggle mentally with runs? Any tips for overcoming it?

10 miles is just amazing to me. I highly doubt I could even run one mile, to be honest (maybe someday I'll get there). You are a beast and should be proud. 🙂
I always want to stop in the first two miles. If I can get past that point, I usually have no problem settling in and finishing a long run. Once I have run for an hour or so, I really don't want to quit short of finishing, because I feel like I've invested too much to quit.
I love 10 miles! Next to 5 miles, it's my favorite distance to run.
Great job! I know how you feel as this weekend's 9 miler felt like the run that would never end! I'm hoping Friday's ten miler will go better since it will be after a week of rest and healthy eating. 🙂
I'll be running the Reston 10 Miler next weekend (March 3) and then the Rock n' Roll Half marathon on the 16th of March. I still get flustered at the 5 mile mark for training runs. I struggle with the distance for training, but for some reason during the race, I only struggle (to the point of wanting to quit) before the race starts. I am horrible before the gun goes off. I'm wondering why I am doing this, I am questioning everything I've done up to this point, etc. I wish I had advice, but one thing I have learned, that pausing my Garmin, stretching a bit and reciting "I run this body" over and over seems to help. That and a power song. Always have a power song.
This is amazing – such an inspiration. I'm not a runner – YET, but every time I read your blog I get an inkling!
My question for you is about the avocado smashed on english muffin. How much avocado do you end up using over the two halves?
I am not a runner, but somehow became engrossed with the idea of running under the pink trees in spring and signed up for the cherry blossom 10 miler! Haha, training has been rough considering I've never done more than a 5k WALK, the yucky up and down weather, and a retail schedule. But! I just did my first 40 minute "run" and after I passed 2 miles I finally felt like I was in a groove. I'll see what happens on Saturday when I do 48minutes, but as of now, just seeing the progress I've made in just over a month has been enough motivation to keep pushing. It's also good to know the more seasoned runners have those mental hurdles, too. We're all in this together! 🙂
Great job, Melissa!!! I have found that my first 3 miles are ALWAYS my most challenging…I want to stop! But, I don't and then I feel like I'm in a groove too. You can do it!! Good luck!!
Hi Beth- I definitely struggle mentally during long runs, usually with just doubting that I can finish it. It helps when I run with my lady runner friends and we take turns talking and saying god things. On one run over the summer while training for Marine Corps, we clapped every time the Garmin beeped a mile. I also sometimes use this silly mantra, "lactic acid, go away. Hot body here to stay!"
Keep up the great work! I'm actually injured right now (broken foot from running) but love reading your posts and hope I'll be back out on Mt. Vernon in the next 6 weeks. If you're ever looking for a running group to join, let me know!
I'm addicted to avocado toast (or english muffins) right now! I've been eating it almost every day for weeks. Yummy.
Thanks for the running inspiration… I haven't done more than 3 miles in months. I need to get out there and log some miles!
Mentally I am fantastic about running. Sadly when my IT band flares up the challenges I have are mostly physical.
All my running problems are mental. Once I settle into a run I'm usually ok, but I have a hard time getting started and I get bored after about 30 minutes. I just signed up for my first 5k (Philly Color Run! Whoo!) so hopefully it gives me the push I need.
Awesome job on the run girl! Double digits is always a good feeling 🙂
I have actually started having a little avocado with my pre-workout meal…it never upsets my stomach but keeps me from getting too hungry!
I always forget to do avocado this way. Thanks for the reminder! YUM!
You NEVER cease to amaze me!!! I have fallen off of the running wagon for a bit, but plan on going for a 'family run' this weekend to try to get fired up again. Prior to my little break, I had been running for quite some time and let me tell you, I have NEVER run 10 miles at the pace you're running. I am so impressed and a little jealous! I also have several half marathons under my running belt, but still, I have yet to reach that level of speed for mileage! Go Beth!! PS. Yes, I have mental challenges all the time while running…many times I talk to myself about how one mile is not long and my goal is just that next mile. I also remind myself that there are so many people who cannot run and so I try to dedicate a mile those people, pushing me to complete that mile and the next and the next.
Lately, EVERY run has been a hassle. I can only get myself through 1.5miles on the treadmill before quitting and moving on to the stair stepper. That's awesome you are pushing through the mental blocks!

President Bush says American Muslims share the same grief over the September 11th attacks as do all Americans.
The president spoke to reporters after a visit to the Afghan embassy in Washington today (Tuesday). He met there with with Afghan Ambassador to the U-S Ishaq Shahryar and other leaders of the Arab-American and Muslim communities.
The president called upon all Americans to uphold the values of America -- and he said prejudice holds no place among those values.
Mr. Bush said America values its relationship with Muslims and Arabs around the world. The president noted that one year ago the people of Afghanistan were living under the oppression of the Taleban regime and today they are an emerging democracy. He pledged continued U-S assistance to them, noting that America has already contributed 700 million dollars in food and infrastructure aid.
Speaking about the terrorist attacks in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania, Mr. Bush said all Americans must recognize the face of terror is not the true face of Islam. He said Americans must remember their enemy is not a religion, but a radical network of terrorists and the governments which support them.

Greg Skrzypek describes his biogeochemistry discipline of stable isotopes as a narrow field with very broad applications.
Associate Professor and ARC Future Fellow Dr Skrzypek, with Dr Pauline Grierson and Douglas Ford, run the stable isotope laboratory on the Crawley campus that is otherwise known as the West Australian Biogeochemistry Centre.
"Our lab is one of the few places in Australia that provides open access to stable isotope analyses for academics, government and industry from WA and around the country," he said.
Stable isotopes are non-radio-active isotopes, which don't decay over time. Their ratios in the environment are perfect tracers of many processes that are not detectable using traditional chemistry.
A/Professor Skrzypek is also convener of the 9th International Conference on the Applications of Stable Isotope Techniques to Ecological Studies (IsoEcol 9), which is currently running at UWA (3-8 August 2014, www.isoecol2014.org).
It is the first time the conference has been held in Australia and it is thanks to his perseverance.
"I applied, unsuccessfully, twice for a development grant from the Perth Convention Bureau (PCB) to go to this conference overseas," A/Professor Skrzypek said. "After my second application had been turned down, PCB contacted me and generously offered to pay for my air fare to attend the last IsoEcol conference two years ago in France. That's where I successfully promoted WA as the next conference destination."
Of the 135 delegates attending IsoEcol in Perth, about 20 per cent are students and thanks to the Australian Institute of Nuclear Science Engineering (AINSE) the conference organisers were able to provide travel grants to Australian and New Zealand students. Other sponsorship allowed registration fee waivers for students from developing countries including Mexico and Guatemala to come to IsoEcol 9.
The conference's major sponsors are UWA, Sercon (which produces instruments for stable isotope research), Rio Tinto, AINSE and CSIRO. It is co-organised with CSIRO and Rio Tinto.

Assault is a Mission type identical to Sabotage, requiring Tenno to breach into the Kuva Fortress and destroy its navar cannon. Koro, Kuva Fortress is currently the only node with this mission type. It is accessible only after completing The War Within quest.
The mission is split into several major objectives:
- Breach the gates by delivering a moltecoil charge that is given at the beginning of the mission and wait until the moltecoil melts the locks.
- Find and disable 3 Navar-Cannon systems via hacking before it fires the tectonic shot at the colony. After hacking into the Navar-Cannon room, the players have two minutes to complete this task otherwise the mission will fail. Hacking a system or destroying an exposed circuit on the front of each bunker will lower its walls. Tenno may find it quicker to use the ziplines or parkour across the ravine, rather than running around to the back of other bunkers.
- Reach the command center, acquire 3 telemetry keys, and defend the telemetry console while the Lotus recalibrates its targeting systems. The mission will fail if the console is destroyed.
- Return to the cannon's control room and discharge the cannon, which is aimed to fire at a Grineer galleon.
- Return to the command center to eject and destroy the cannon's fuel cell.
- Archwing enemies can attack players on this tileset.
- Assault is the longest non-endless game mode to date.
Patch HistoryEdit
Update 25.7
- Fixed missing explosion from the cannons of a Grineer Galleon in the Koro, Kuva Fortress Assault mission.
- Fixed progression stopper caused by players being able to pick up more than one Telemetry Key, except they stack and the newly picked up key goes missing as reported here
- Polished aspects of Kuva Fortress Assault missions. Individual markers have been added to shootable targets during the 'destroy the targeting mechanism' phase, and added teleport action under the falling debris so players don't get stuck when it's destroyed.
- Kuva Fortress Cache hunting has been moved to Fortress Exterminate missions as it makes more sense for the pacing of the mission demands.
- Fixed 'You picked up a key' transmission on the Kuva Fortress Assault mission playing for all players rather than just the user picking up the key.
- Introduced.

'''Miaphysitism''' (sometimes called '''henophysitism''') is the [[
christology]] of the [[Oriental Orthodox]] Churches. Miaphysitism holds that in the one person of [[Jesus]] [[Christ]], Divinity and Humanity are united in one "nature" ("[[physis]]"), the two being united without separation, without confusion, and without alteration.
Miaphysitism has often been considered by [[Chalcedonian]] Christians to be a form of [[monophysitism]], but the Oriental Orthodox Churches themselves reject this characterization, a position which the [[Eastern Orthodox]] and [[Roman Catholic]] Churches have begun to take more seriously.

As student enrollment rates increase, Lower Merion struggles to find solutions to accommodate class sizes. On Wednesday night, the school board for Lower Merion School District held a public meeting to tackle class size issues in middle and high schools.
The main problem faced by all the schools was the lack of space as a result of increases in student populations. With Bala Cywnyd, Potten addressed the issue of traffic flow several times.
"In a building that was built in 1939, we have to consider flow, because … the hallways are narrow. So if you're thinking about moving 900 students to that building, it's important to note that," Potten said.
At Welsh Valley, Principal Christopher Hall said they took steps to address overcrowding by adding 12 new classrooms in 2015. Even with the added rooms, they are still facing classroom shortages. "As recently as this past school year, we've needed to convert the wrestling room into a challenge classroom and we also needed to convert one of our large group instruction rooms into a small group instruction room," Hall said.
When it came to the high schools, the issue that was most prevalent was how to accommodate for so many students seeking to take science classes. At Lower Merion High School, Principal Sean Hughes said they have had to add new classrooms for biology and chemistry. "What's our biggest concern? Well it's the eight classrooms that have biology and chemistry," said Hughes. Hughes presented the numbers of the projected trends of the two academic fields and said that it is "the science field overall that has led us to use outside the building which has led us to requesting the DAO (district administration offices) for building space as we get larger."
For Lower Merion, the enrollment in science classes has increased over the past decade. According to Hughes, 77 percent of high school seniors were taking extra science classes in 2006. In 2016, the number rose to 95 percent. The uptick in interest for science courses is the main reason for adding new science classes in the DAO in recent years.
We cannot do an all- school assembly in the auditorium, actually we haven't since we moved into the building. So right now, with the enrollment, we'll do 9 and 10 together, then 11 and 12. Eventually as we get larger, it will be a single set grade level assembly, which is not a big deal in the high school.
Hughes made a point of mentioning how at Lower Merion, they have several teachers that share classrooms. "Not every teacher in the high school, which we were used to in the old building, has their own classroom. We do share classrooms currently. We have about eight to nine teachers that do share classrooms," Hughes said.
At Harriton High School, a similar picture was put on display as Principal Scott Weinstein also discussed the importance of their science courses:
Trends are pretty similar [to Lower Merion] in math and sciences. One hundred eighty-two students are taking more than one science class and this number is trending upwards, and as our enrollment grows, we anticipate our growth to be similar.
Based on the trends in enrollment, Harriton will reach its peak class size of 1,589 in the 2025-2026 school year. The expected increase in class size over the next several years will cause Harriton to need two additional biochemistry labs by 2021 to meet student demand. Weinstein said that by 2025, they will have to deny 240 students the opportunity of taking an extra science course.
The cost of the additional classrooms needed to meet Harriton's demand by 2021 — four classrooms or two biochemistry labs — would be around $5.1 million. However, if Harriton were to add six classrooms, which was proposed to meet future needs for more rooms, the cost would be $7 million.

The United States is one step closer to reaching the World Cup. After a convincing win against Panama, the U.S. is only one win away from a trip to Russia. An exceptional game by Christian Pulisic and Jozy Altidore saw the United States' offense flourish while the heroics of Omar Gonzalez and Matt Besler in the back helped maintain a shutout.
Tim Howard did not have much to do. He was only challenged twice and made each save. It was an overall relaxing night for him. Grade: B
DeAndre Yedlin's return was strong. His pace and proper defensive positioning shut down every attack on his side of the field. Grade: B+
Omar Gonzalez won every aerial duel. Grade: B+
Matt Besler started the game with a cut to his upper eye. After the injury, he returned to the field and played well. Grade: B+
Jorge Villafaña seemed nonexistent but that isn't a bad thing. The lack of an opposing attack made Villafaña's night simple. Grade: B
Michael Bradley played his typical box-to-box role. He offered supportive defense and played superb balls. It was pure soccer, nothing fancy or over the top. Grade: B
Darlington Nagbe had a quiet night. His presence in the attack was unnecessary because of his teammates' impressive goal tally and the lack of opposing offense did not require him to offer his defensive services. Grade: B
Christian Pulisic is no joke. He scored the first goal of the game within the first eight minutes and assisted on Altidore's first of two. His confidence and eagerness to take on defenders led to multiple attacking opportunities. Grade: A+
Paul Arriola's pace is extraordinary. The minute he had space to run with the ball his side was rewarded with a quick counter-attack. He had a few chances on goal but was unable to convert. Grade: B
Bobby Wood did all of his country's dirty work. Constant high pressure and energy left the opposition's defense frustrated. After multiple missed goal opportunities, he was able to get one of his own in the 63rd minute. Grade: A
Jozy Altidore had a superb game. His ability to check to passes and flick them on helped ignite counter attacks and earn himself an assist. His positive play was rewarded with two goals. Grade: A+
Dax McCarty checked in early in the second half. He brought a calm presence to a wild game. Grade: B-
Clint Dempsey entered the game to the applause and chants of fans. Sadly, he is still left chasing his record-breaking goal. Grade: B-
Alejandro Bedoya did not have enough time to make an impact. Grade: N/A
Bruce Arena got it right against Panama. The powerful attack of Pulisic, Altidore and Wood were exceptional and the defense made zero costly mistakes. Grade: A

Discussion in 'Commercial Snow Removal' started by pcs, Nov 2, 2000.
does anyone know if snoway plows are any good with the down pressure system?
i have used a snoway predator plow with the down pressure
system for 4 yrs. i like it, does ane excellent job of scraping snow with an ice layer on it that has been driven
over. down falls-- wears out cutting edge fast with down pressure on,plow does not weigh as much as steel units and when going into a standing pile of snow as high as the plow or higher it tends to lift up even with the pressure switch on. have not had any breakage problems with the plow.
On on my second season with my Lexan Sno Way Plow I am very pleased with the performance of the down pressure feature as well as the plow itself. SnoWay customer service & support is great, but as said here before convenice of your dealer is a MAJOR issue!
We've got 2 Sno-Way straight blades, one a 94 and the other a 96. They're not the greatest thing out there, but so far they are doing OK by us. We added a Sno-Way Vee plow this year, we'll see how that goes. Our dealer is fantastic on service and parts, factory customer service has been way less than golden. The light weight cuts down on wear on the truck and downpressure more than compensates for the light weight when it comes to cleaning. We'll keep using Sno-Way until something better comes along, which I really don't see happening.
I just got a SnoWay 25 Series 7.5' steel plow installed on my truck over this past summer. I also got a broomer to sweep parking lots with during the warmer weather. So far, I love the system. It's a really great plow. The only problem I've had is with the solenoid, which they replaced this morning for free. I would definately recommend this plow.
Yep, I operate a SnoWay Predator w/ lexan type insert.
Have used it since 1998 (3 seasons) with little or no complaints. I guess there are two thicknesses of lexan used- my commercial unit has the thinner 1/4" stuff.
Had some vertical drift. Took out, inspected, and cleaned the two solenoid valves and also the spring/ball doo hickey in the back. Works fine now.
The down pressure has worked fine for me in Western Michigan. Have not used a back blade at all, however, would surmise that the winters have been mild so far. My point is that a back plow would be a great complement to the snoway plow especially for a heavy snow season.

It was my absolute pleasure to meet these three. They have recently moved to Vancouver and we had a fun + fast paced Fall mini photo session at Trout Lake on one of our gorgeous Fall days. It felt more like Summer than Fall, but hey, we Vancouverites know that the rain is soon to come!! I hope they feel it was a good move to transplant their lives to the West Coast, the place I love living in so much.

im at my desk.
im slowly slipping the skin off a firm mandarin.
you know that smell?
the one that will hint at everyones nose whether they like it or not?
and spitting out the seeds.
they're becoming cheap these mandy's
but today as i passed the fruit man i mourned the
loss of bananas, all bruised.
poor nanas. poor generation of little tykes that are missing them in they're toddler stages right now.
one of my best friends is a writer.
she writes all sorts of things, for newspapers. and she writes stories.
she teaches little ratbags to write, in greensborough once a week.
two weeks ago she disappeared and went off to the west to a womens prison. (clit clink)
yesterday she hung out with heroin addicts.
i often wonder how pretty anna k. (elliot smith rings in my head went i say that 'pretty mary k')
can do it. she gives so much to make people who read the paper a little smarter.
she says i have made her see things differently. im not sure how.
and i wish she knew how many people she has made see things differently.
i love her.
the pictures here are from WA
and they are hers.
and i love them.

Nothing is more frustrating as a professional in the hair and beauty salon than someone missing an appointment. Not only does it waste your time, but it upsets the customers who have had their appointment times rescheduled around as a result.
Even with a method in place to remind customers of upcoming appointments, effective marketing in a field as competitive as the hair and beauty industry can still be a real struggle. Fortunately, the mobile messaging service offered by WSI partner Textlocal provides a cost-effective and easy to use solution to direct customer contact, solving the problems detailed above, and many more!
SMS marketing is the ideal way to drive more business to a salon, targeting new and existing clients with news, updates and offers straight to their mobile phone and making sure no appointments are missed.
Here are a few ways you can use text messaging to make sure your salon is always busy.
Automatic appointment reminders & booking confirmations
Send personalised, automatic reminders of upcoming appointments to make sure clients show up for bookings.
Fill empty appointments
Target existing customers with updates on products and special offers in the run up to quiet periods to make sure all appointments are full.
Send price lists via a text message
Attach a price list to a text message through a short link and send to your customer base to make sure your customers are aware of your latest products and are well informed to make their booking
Promote other services
Send one-time use mobile vouchers with unique codes for certain services to offer discounts on other services in your range.
Reward your loyal customers
Multiple-use mobile vouchers can be scanned every time a client visits with rewards given every few visits. Great for encouraging clients to choose your salon for future treatments.
Get instant feedback
Send mobile surveys via a link in a text message after a client has visited to easily gather feedback about their experience, so you can get precious insights on how to increase customer satisfaction.
Continually grow your customer list
Use a keyword on a short code to encourage existing and potential customers to text in to receive offers and discounts.
Generate more website traffic
Besides using geotargeted ads to get local customers to visit your website, you can include short links in your text messages to your website so recipients have all the information they need to make their appointment.
Run your text messaging from anywhere
Are you a mobile hairdresser or beautician? You can organise your text messages and send from anywhere with the Textlocal mobile app and easily import contact straight from your mobile phone.

Ten Principles to Bulletproof Your Portfolio, Part 1
We live in an uncertain world.
Economies expand and contract. Interest rates rise and fall. Markets gyrate up and down.
And nobody gives you a warning.
It's a bit unsettling, especially when your life savings are on the line.
Wouldn't it be great if you could bulletproof your investments, so you're prepared for whatever the future holds?
In fact, you can. You need only follow 10 battle-tested principles that have stood the test of time…
1. Don't try to forecast the economy.
The national and global economy today is too big, too dynamic and way too complex for anyone – from corporate executives to central bank presidents – to accurately predict.
So if you're running your portfolio based on someone's guess about how long the economic expansion will last or when the next recession will arrive, you're already off on the wrong foot.
Twice a year, The Wall Street Journal polls 55 of the nation's leading economists and asks what lies ahead for the economy, interest rates, inflation and the dollar. Most are way off. (Their consensus isn't so hot either.)
It's gotten to the point where even The Wall Street Journal staff is in on the joke. Reporter Jesse Eisinger wrote, "Pity the poor Wall Street economist. Big staffs, sophisticated models, reams of historical data, degrees from schools known by merely the name of the biggest benefactor, and still they forecast about as well as groundhogs."
Punxsutawney Phil may actually have an edge on most of them.
2. Don't time the market.
It seems so easy when you look at a chart of past bull and bear markets. If only you'd gotten in down here, and then out somewhere up there, and then back in around here.
As they say in New York, "fuhgeddaboudit."
Trying to switch into the market for the rallies and out for the corrections – or even just trying to call the major turns every decade or so – is a waste of time and money.
It can't be done.
Sure, anyone can make a good call. (And don't think they won't keep reminding you.) But to successfully time the market, you have to make at least three. You have to buy at the right time, get out at the right time, and then buy back in the right time. Otherwise, the plane will leave you at the airport… since the long-term direction of the stock market is up.
Vanguard founder Jack Bogle calls market timing "the loser's game." He adds, "After 50 years in this business, I do not know anybody who has done it successfully and consistently. I don't even know anybody who knows anybody who's done it."
3. Save more.
The 2016 Retirement Confidence Survey revealed that millions of Americans are woefully unprepared for retirement. The single biggest reason is they haven't saved enough.
More than a quarter of Americans (26%) have put aside less than $1,000 for retirement. Forty-two percent have saved less than $10,000. And the majority (58%) has accumulated less than $25,000.
Millions of Americans today believe the government will deliver the material happiness they deserve, sparing them the trouble and discomfort of striving for it.
Unfortunately, the average retired worker receives just $1,341 a month from Social Security. (If you include spousal benefits, it climbs to $2,212).
And without some big changes to our nation's spending habits, those numbers will likely go down in the next few decades.
To ensure a comfortable retirement, you need to save as much as you can, for as long as you can, starting as soon as you can.
4. Asset allocate your portfolio.
Asset allocation is the process of finding the optimal mix of investments for your portfolio.
I'm not talking about security selection here. Asset allocation means dividing your assets in the right proportions among stocks, bonds and other noncorrelated assets to give yourself the best chance of reaching your financial goals while taking as little risk as possible.
Asset allocation is your single biggest investment decision, responsible for approximately 90% of your portfolio's long-term returns.
What is the best asset allocation? Opinions vary. But The Oxford Club's recommended asset allocation is as follows:
- 30% U.S. equities (divided evenly among large cap and small cap stocks)
- 30% international equities (divided in thirds between Europe, Asia and emerging markets)
- 10% each in high-grade bonds, high-yield bonds and Treasury inflation-protected securities (TIPS)
- And 5% each in real estate investment trusts and shares of gold mining companies.
5. Rebalance your portfolio.
Each of these asset classes should generate returns that exceed inflation over the long haul. However, they won't move in lockstep. And that's a good thing.
Once a year – the date is not important – you need to rebalance your portfolio. That means returning the portfolio to its original percentages by selling back the asset classes that have appreciated the most, and putting the proceeds to work in the assets that have lagged the most.
Doing this forces you to sell high and buy low. It adds about a point a year to your total return while also reducing your risk – since you are paring back on the assets that are most extended.
It may feel wrong to liquidate a portion of asset classes that have done well. (After all, with individual securities, the goal is to let your profits run.) But asset classes move in unpredictable up and down cycles. Rebalancing allows you to take advantage of that.
In short, investors should ignore the siren call of market timers and economic forecasters, save more, asset allocate properly and rebalance annually.
Covering these bases will keep you on track to reach your most important financial goals.
But if you really want to bulletproof your portfolio, there are five other steps you need to take as well.
I'll cover those in my next column.

For many people, a luxury vacation is something that they can only ever dream of experiencing. This is often because of how expensive a luxury vacation can be with all of the hidden costs that appear along the way. Now, you might be surprised to learn that it is actually possible to have a luxury vacation without breaking the bank. Here we are going to give you some tips on how you can do this, so keep reading to find out more about how it's within your grasp to have the trip of your dreams!
Plan Ahead
Our first tip is quite simple but it can be very effective – plan ahead. This is especially important if you are going to be travelling a long distance and want to get the best possible deal on flights. While a private jet might scream luxury travel, it is not always necessary when there are first class seats available on the plane with just as many perks. For long-haul flights, you should be comparing the price of these a few months in advance as this should help you to get the best possible price and still visit a luxurious destination without breaking the bank.
The Location
It is a well-known fact that some holiday destinations appear to be more luxurious than others. The truth about this is that there are many destinations that can be just as luxurious if you plan your trip right. While Spain is known for its package holidays and family trips, it is entirely possible to have a luxury vacation in Spain. Take a look at some of the hotels and villas that are available in some of the less expensive destinations and you should be able to plan a luxurious holiday without breaking the bank.
Stay In A Luxury Villa
Our next tip for having a cost-effective luxury holiday is to stay in a luxury villa while you are there. While this can be expensive for only one of two people to stay in, if you end up travelling with a large group of people you will be able to share the price. Many luxury villas in Spain and other European countries are affordable when your entire group fills all of the rooms, making a luxury villa perfect for those travelling in large groups such as wedding parties who want a guaranteed luxurious experience.
Go In The Off-Season
For most people, travelling to hot destinations is something that should be done in the summer. Of course, this is only going to be more expensive and you might find it harder to have your luxury holiday without breaking the bank. Try to go on the off-season to some of the fancier resorts of destinations and you'll have just as good a time, without spending more money than you can realistically afford. Take a look at the off-season for your preferred destination and you'll be able to have an amazing trip.
Book Tickets In Advance
Our final tip for those who want to experience a luxury holiday without breaking the bank is to book any sort of tickets in advance. This way, you'll find that you can enjoy all of the luxurious tourist attractions and visit the top bars and clubs without paying the extortionate rates on the door. Often, tickets that have been bought in advance are cheaper, and when they are bought in bulk for your whole group, you can save a lot of cash. Take a look at your options online before you go and you should be able to find some cheaper tickets that allow for your desires.
In Conclusion
If you've always dreamed of visiting a luxurious destination or fancy having a few more holidays this year, then make sure to take on board these tips. Think about booking your trip in advance and don't be afraid to visit more expensive destinations in Europe, like Spain, that can still provide you with a glamourous experience.
