Days: Thursday
Times: 10am
At diddi dance we realise and encourage endless enthusiasm and energy in an action packed, full of fun 45 minute dance class.
Classes are suitable for both boys and girls aged from 18 months upwards, however we have had lots of younger children join in. Using various dancing games, exercises, bells, hoops and dance ribbons to our own funky pop songs, your little one will improve their rhythm and co-ordination as well as their social and gross motor skills whilst having tons of fun!!
Parents and carers are encouraged to join in and share the enjoyment with their diddi dancer. Week after week you will soon see their confidence blossom. We do realise that some toddlers are more confident than others and this is why we offer a free trial, so you can be sure that it's a class they'll enjoy. Bookings are then taken in half term blocks (usually 6 weeks) instead of having to book for a whole term.
We also hold classes at various venues across Lancaster, Preston & Kendal
www.diddidance.com for full list of locations and times.
diddi dance parties and Surestart /Nursery sessions are also available.

As many of you know, our clinic is comprised of only Athletic Therapists who assess, treat and rehabilitate injuries. Each of us has gone on to take different continuing education courses to specialize and enhance our skills in areas that we each individually are interested in. One of the biggest benefits of having a variety of skill sets is that we are able to refer our patients in house to one another to give our patients a well-rounded approach to their treatment plan.
One of our patients who suffered a concussion came in with a variety of symptoms that ranged from mild to moderate in severity. She was very sensitive to even the smallest movements and gentle treatment techniques. With a history of 5 previous concussions she has also been dealing with the residual effects involving her jaw and other structures in the skull and neck area. Needless to say, she was in a lot of pain from both her previous and current concussion.
To help calm everything down, we started our concussion treatment with some gentle Craniosacral techniques to helped release some restrictions in the skull, mobilize the fluid around the brain and relax the central nervous system. Once she was less sensitive and her symptoms reduced, we began to treat other aspects of her injury such as the muscles of the eye and jaw with Neurokinetic Therapy to find compensation patterns of the muscles that help that area function normally. This team approach to concussion treatment worked wonderfully! With our different skills sets we were able to alternate concussion treatment techniques back and forth. We found this approach to be one of the most successful we have ever had when treating patients with concussions! This "one-two-bam" tactic (as our client affectionately refers to it) allowed the patient to achieve and correct the imbalances she had going on, without consistently flaring the area up. With this method we were able to reduce to recovery time and she is well on her way to being almost completely symptom free!

Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP)
The Breakdown
• Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points is a systematic, preventative approach to food safety originally conceived in the 1960's. It is a product management system that, when properly designed and implemented, should generate a safer food product.
• As the name implies, HACCP includes first analysis and and then control of biological, chemical, and physical hazards in the food production chain from raw material, production, procurement, and handling to manufacturing, distribution, and consumption of the finished product.
• It is commonly referred to as HACCP (pronounced "Hassup").
• The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is attempting to use HACCP as a replacement for inspection, by reducing physical on-site inspections to one of verification and oversight of a plant's HACCP plan.
Our Position
• The utilization of HACCP principals within meat and poultry slaughter plants will help prevent food contamination and will lead to safer products.
• The establishment of performance standards in conjunction with routine microbial testing will also lead to a safer meat and poultry industry.
• It is a company's responsibility to produce a safe product, and the HACCP system is a necessity for this safety. However, HACCP is NOT a replacement for inspection, nor does it negate the need for inspection.
• The government is responsible for the production of safe food products through organoleptic and microbiological inspection at key points in the production process, NOT through verifying company paperwork and overseeing plant employees.
• Stop Foodborne Illness has never and will never support an "oversight and verification" program over actual inspection. The most intense surveillance in slaughter plants is necessary to ensure that microbiological testing occurs to detect invisible bacteria and that all visible feces and ingesta are trimmed off.

A few weeks ago, I was in Saguenay working on a couple of stories. Sitting in the ruins of the old Pulperie on a sunny day, I wrote this little reflection on my upcoming immigration limbo:
In Chicoutimi on business
I stand on a viaduct
overlooking La Petite Maison Blanche
and a skate park.
A shirtless kid, white as a fish's belly, rides a rail
And his wheels hit the ground with a crack.
I'm reminded of the skate park in the bud-shaped shadow of the Human Rights Museum in Winnipeg.
Winnipeg! As distant as Jupiter, but still…here.
It dawns on me that I've seen more of this country than that kid, who was born here, probably has…and much more of this country than I ever have of my own.
Where else could home be but here?
That is, if such a thing as home exists
For someone like me.

Sometimes despite making and trying to follow a budget, money somehow disappears. A look at the calendar usually indicates that it is not even mid-month.
It may not be that you're not budgeting wisely, it might just be the fact that you're spending too much money on unnecessary things. Here are some tips that can help you save a few coins as they say " haba na haba hujaza kibaba".
Be more organized
Being disorganized can lead you to wasting a lot of cash.
This simple everyday action can cost you money at some point. From carelessly losing chargers and cables, misplacing expensive jewelry or important documents like your ID, driver's license and passport. These are things which cost money and time to replace and if you make it a habit it can turn out to be an expensive affair.
Also you might spend a lot of time and money to replace an item only to find it later so it helps to be organized.
Use public transport
Granted that taking an Uber or a taxi to and from work is far more comfortable and convenient as compared to public transport, it is also strenuous your budget.
I'm not saying you should walk to work or to your meeting, but if your meeting is within a walking distance of your office. Just stretch your legs and save on the taxi fare. Not only will you be saving money, you might lose some weight, too. Also if your job does not involve going into the field it is cheaper to use public trasnport.
Carrying packed lunch to the office
Eating out is without a doubt an expensive affair. The fact that most of the food we buy on a daily basis is over Kshs 100 for a proper meal means you end up spending more than Kshs 500 every week – and that's on lunch alone. If you count the impromptu coffee meetings and evening dinners with clients, you end up spending so much more. A lady from Centonomy once gave a talk on how the money we spend on lunch on a daily basis per year is enough to take you on a holiday.
To mitigate this endeavor to prepare food at home. The more food you can prepare at home, the better off your budget will be. Plus packing lunch also tends to be better for your waistline.
Carrying water from home
As you begin taking in the tradition of carrying packed lunch, also get in the habit of carrying water from home as well. This works if your office does not provide a water dispenser. It's proven to be not only cheaper but also safer since you can treat the water you drink, that's if you're not entirely sure of where your bottled water comes from.
Budgeting for your groceries
Vegetable and fruit prices shot up to over 13% in January 2017 according to the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) and is expected to project in the rising months if the drought continues.
Before you go grocery shopping, think about the meals you're going to make for the week and write down exactly what ingredients you'll need to prepare those meals. When you actually go to the store, stick to just the ingredients on your list.
Taking care of your health
Most of us are victims of this; ignoring simple symptoms and warnings that our bodies give us until it piles up to become a hospital case. This doesn't mean you go for monthly checkups – although this isn't an entirely bad idea – but you can start from simple home remedies for when you get the flu, regular exercise to keep your cholesterol in check and keeping cavities in check will save you from painful bills in the near future.
Limiting Impulse buys
Tempting products like a cold soda, a packet of crisps, a pair of shoes or an impromptu road trip are a great way to reward yourself after a long day. However, if it becomes a habit, you can end up spending a lot of money.
Have a plan. Set aside an amount in your monthly budget for such.
Taking care of simple repairs by yourself
Basic car maintenance and plumbing in the house is something few us are willing to learn. This is perhaps due to our increasingly busy lives and the preference for someone else to do maintenance work.
If you endeavor to learn to do the minor repairs or service on say your car and buy the tools needed you will find that in the long run you will have saved a good amount of money.
Using actual cash as opposed to credit/debit cards
Using credit/debit cards is definitely much more convenient and less bulky but in case you have never realized this, you are more likely to spend if you are just swiping a card. Take the example of a guy who has gone out with his friends, he is more likely to buy more rounds if he is just swiping than when he is paying with actual cash. Using a card when going out is likely to lead to tears after looking at your bank balance the following morning.
As much as it's convenient to use a card, consider weekly or bi-weekly trips to your bank or ATM and withdrawing a fixed amount of cash for your spending.
The same applies to M-Pesa. Instead of doing all your transactions via M-Pesa, withdraw the amount you want for that week and save hundreds of shillings in transaction fees.
Also take a credit card only if you have discipline in spending otherwise you will find yourself in a lot of debt.

The works to install the cables underground along Rassada Rd will be completed before the end of August, and the works along Phang Nga Rd will be completed by the end of next month, DPT-Phuket Chief Tawee Homhuan confirmed today (May 15).
Mr Tawee delivered the news during an inspection of the works today led by Phuket Vice Governor Prakob Wongmaneeroong.
Mr Tawee explained that all the power cables needed along have already been installed underground.
"We now just need to finish installing all the communications underground before switching the system over," he said.
Works along the 577 metres of Phang Nga Rd is about 60% complete, Mr Tawee explained.
Once this section is compete, work will continue on completing the project along the contracted 375m of Rassada Rd, he added.
Last month, when the incomplete works left abandoned left the road surfaces in dangerous condition (see stories here and here), the works were expected to take until October to be finished.
Phuket City Mayor Somjai Suwansupana on Apr 11 released a public statement to explain that SCG 1995 Co Ltd was hired to carry out the work under a budget of B166 million.
Under the contract, the work began on July 25, 2017 and was to be finished by July 20 last year, she added. (See story here.)

Do Away with Your IPS Today!
Malware attacks rival Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks as a top cyber threat according to most CISO's and analysts. Malware penetrates an enterprise network and obfuscates machines into executing it and causing cyber damage.
Preventing malware intrusions via the Internet is a strategy many teams apply, but let's face it - it isn't working.
Simple malware attacks, like phishing emails and trojans, evade even the most sophisticated defenses, and still today, organizations have a difficult time based on legacy technology available today, in actually preventing malware from executing.
This white paper will lay out a new way of thinking based on Centripetal's innovative approach to cyber defense: the Threat Intelligence Gateway.
In other words, prevention should happen where threats infiltrate - on the network, and not the host. Download this white paper to learn more!

DIE RAGTIME SPECHT GROOVE, Gisa, 1973Posted: October 3, 2014 Filed under: 70´s, Germany, Jazz Records, Private Pressings, Promotional Records 2 Comments
This 45 is fitting easily into the concept of this blog. It´s a privately pressed EP, that has never been reissued in 40 years, of four jazz tunes, recorded live at a furniture store in 1973, on the occasion of a design-exhibition.
The fact that this 45 is a promotional item makes it seem musically inferior to a proper jazz release, but it´s far from that. Band leader and pianist Hans-Jürgen "Specht" Bock (1939-2006), bassist Klaus Schulze and drummer Slick Salzer were already seasoned jazzmen when they recorded these songs. Everything is excellent here, even down to the graphics, credited on the front to a certain hace. I especially dig the label design that doesn´t imply "furniture store".
The Ragtime Specht Groove recorded five albums. For this EP they cover Jelly Roll Morton´s "Grandpa Spells", Tom Delaney´s "Absent Minded Blues", first recorded by the Dutch Swing College Band, and "Numbers Boogie" recorded by Sugar Chile Robinson. My favorite of this batch is Ragtime Specht Groove´s own original tune "Gisa". I especially love the part when they go to a minor scale in the middle of the song and the bassist changes from playing with the fingers to a bow, Jimmy Blanton-style. And then suddenly they pick up the tempo again!
These Stuttgart cats sure were groovin´…

The bass player of this trio is of course NOT the (more or less:) well-known KLAUS SCHULZE who composes, plays and records "electronic music", since 1971 and until today, see his website: http://www.klaus-schulze.com
The names "Klaus" as well as "Schulze" are among the most often used names in Germany.

5 Digital Marketing Facts You Need To Know
Sometimes you've got to take marketing statistics with a grain of salt. For instance, did you know that People Are More Likely to Survive a Plane Crash Than to Click an Ad? That's according to Solve Media, whose findings also ascertained that winning a prize in the Mega Millions, birthing twins, and getting a full house in a game of poker are all at least twice as likely to happen than somebody clicking an ad.
It's unclear how they figured this out, or if the methodology is all that sound – we certainly can't imagine they served over a billion plane crashes in a single day in order to effectively prove the data – but we're going to hazard a guess that this is all based on "conditional probability". Or to put it another way, comparing apples and oranges to get a point across.
Regardless, it's still a fun-sounding fact, and one that certainly pricked our curiosities. Despite not giving it too much credence, we were still interested to find out how unlikely ad clicks really are, and what we can do to improve things.
So with that being said, here's some more interesting facts that just might change the way you go about your digital marketing efforts:
1. It takes just 50 milliseconds to form an opinion about a webpage
Making a good first impression in the first 00.5 seconds might seem slightly over the top, but that's how long Taylor Francis are saying it takes for new visitors to form an opinion about your webpage based on visual appeal.
Is there any truth in this?
Absolutely. Although there's no definitive length of time applying to everyone visiting your landing page, you can be sure that visitors will have formed an opinion about its 'usefulness' within the first few seconds (based on visuals as well as text) of arriving and decide whether or not to stick around.
What you can do
A lot, actually. Besides taking the time to craft a visually appealing and professional-looking landing page, you should also pay close attention to your copy and structure.
- Message match - Make sure your headline copy parallels the copy used in your link or ad banners. This will let your visitors know, straightaway, that your page is relevant.
- Demonstrate benefit - A landing page's usefulness is typically determined by any immediate benefits of sticking with the page. Make it a rule to include a good reason why visitors should stay, perhaps referring to the value-points of what your promoting in your header.
- Make your CTA clear - Right from the off, people like to know exactly what action needs to be performed, how to go about it, and where. By making your CTA obvious (with the help of directional cues, arrows, copy, etc) you're not just reducing any uncertainty, you're also making it easier for visitors to form a definitive impression of your page.
2. 99% of apps get used only once
Just one percent of app downloads are opened more than once, according to The Social Media Hat, with probably fewer than that being used on a regular basis. The action of completing a download, it seems, is usually more gratifying in the short-term, fulfilling an immediate impulse that later cools once the product is obtained.
Is there any truth in this?
These findings are according to a study originally done by Blackberry, and as credible as that source sounds, there's a good chance that it might be specific to their devices only. Regardless, it's always a good idea to think about this fact when you're offering Free Downloads/Trials as part of your marketing campaign.
What you can do
In a word; 'remarketing'. You need to do everything you can to try and re-engage users after they've already tried your product or service (see more details in the link).
You can also filter out those who are less inclined to purchase your full product/service by making the trial request more stringent, perhaps including a credit card requirement field in the form box.
3. Too many choices hinder decision making
This probably won't come as a surprise to most of you, it's where the term "spoilt for choice" originates, after all, and was the basis for a study conducted by Iyengar and Lepper. It's thought that an abundance of possible choices can be too overwhelming, like sensory overload, and this is what leads to stress and confusion when trying to come to a decision – out of fear of making the wrong decision.
Is there any truth in this?
Very much so. Especially when it comes to landing page marketing.
What you can do
Reduce the number of possible actions on your landing page to just ONE. There never needs to be more than one goal on a landing page, and rarely any need for more than one clickable element.
4. Mobile users are likelier to click in the sponsored listings than anywhere else
Because of the smaller screen sizes on smartphones and tablets, search engine results pages are typically confined to the top three or four ads in the sponsored listings section only – at least this is what's suggested by iMedia Connection.
Is there any truth in this?
It's likely, but there are other contributing factors to consider also. Mobile users not connected to a network wirelessly, and therefore more than likely to be on the move, will favor immediate data instead of having to search for it.
Perhaps what's most interesting, however, is the growing number users accessing the internet via their mobile devices – with five times as many smartphones in the US as there are PCs being reported.
What you can do
Mobile landing pages are an absolute must-have for any marketer who doesn't want to miss out on such a significant volume of visitors. It's a burgeoning demographic that can't be ignored.
5. You're more likely to survive a plane crash than click on an ad
While it's certainly a 'numbers game', relying on volume over quality, when it comes to ads and banners (with a typical click-through rate of about 0.2%) you're better of packing a parachute and bailing out of a plane than attempting to survive any imminent impact. Either that, or stick your head between your knees and kiss your ass goodbye.

Tensile tests on heavy plates are mainly performed according to ISO 6892-1 and ASTM E8, which are internationally recognized and widespread standards. ISO 6892-1 is also a European standard (EN ISO 6892-1) that is identically worded, and thus applicable in the European Union (e.g. DIN EN ISO 6892-1 in Germany). Tensile specimens for this type of tensile test are removed from heavy plate in such a way that the sheet thickness is retained as specimen thickness to the greatest degree possible. The tensile specimens have a correspondingly large cross-section and require materials testing machines with a high load range or heavy load range.
Tensile tests on concrete-reinforcing steel are performed according to the international standard ISO 15630-1. There are also numerous local standards around the world that the testing machine meets. The Z3000H features a large area of application: In addition to extremely large forces and diameters, very small forces of 12 kN and above can also be measured in Class 1 to ISO 7500-1. The H-series hydraulic materials testing machines are ideally suited for high-capacity tensile tests. They have a central hydraulic drive (differential actuator) and are available in versions 600 to 5000 kN (60 - 500 t). Due to the high-resolution and channel-synchronized measurement technology, the material characteristics are determined precisely and accurately. Range switching is not necessary since load signal resolution is available over the entire range. The large measurement range also allows low test loads to be determined precisely, with no need to re-equip the testing machine.
ZwickRoell follows the philosophy of "Everything from a single source" and therefore is able to offer its customers testing systems perfectly matched to their applications. The testing solution for Asian customers includes parallel-closing hydraulic grips as well as a makroXtens extensometer, both made by ZwickRoell.

The Hacks You Will Find on Bird Watching from This Website.
There are so many tasks that people do during their part-time, but it is only a few who will be doing bird watching. From this site, you will know more on what you need to do to become perfect. You might not look like other individuals who see bird watching in a different way, but you can learn how to do it and become special. You should not judge how your experience is going to be just because others had the same. All you require is to get exposure with the right information, and you are going to make it.
If you do not own binoculars, then it means you are not prepared. If you do not have cash with you and need to start the task like right now, it is essential that you begin by looking at a friend who will lend you his/her binoculars. Of course, a friend will lend you his/her binoculars, but it will not be long before he/she needs to use them. Remember that you need to be an independent bird watcher so that you can feel that you are appreciated and that all will work with the activity by having some fun.
If the internet did not exist, there could not be some things changing for the better such as bird watching tips. With so many blogs on the internet and such sites, people are becoming the best bird watchers they always liked to be. Like for instance, this is one of the many blogs you need to use because it has essential information you require. With so many websites to rely on, you will be able to look at some things such as the kind of birds you can be tracking and at what time.
If you avoid some inspirations, then this would affect your bird watching task. If you are not the inspirational person, then this might be a difficult situation you will have to deal with. It is by hearing what other experienced individuals have to say that you will be gaining your inspirations and even have things work for you. Many people who talk about the activity with the knowledgeable will always find that time to deal with specific birds now that they know a lot. Since not all the tools will work for the activity, and you will need to be told which one you need to have and the unnecessary. Timing is also very essential especially because not all birds are located at the same places. If the strategies are useful for you whenever you get stuck, then it is important to know what needs to be done. If you know that you hardly remember incidences, you had rather take photos.

Reports just coming in indicate that no fewer than 600 rams and cows were carted away by armed bandits in Billashe village in Birnin Magaji Local Government Area of Zamfara State on Thursday, 2 October, 2014.
Daily Trust reports that residents of the village informed that the incident occurred in the night, lamenting that the incident will prevent many of them from slaughtering rams during the Eid-el-Kabir festival holding today, Saturday, 4 October, 2014.
It was gathered that the bandits carried out the robbery operation on a house-to-house basis.
A source stated that some residents of the affected villages went after the bandits and recovered their animals.
"You know Eid el-Kabir is approaching and it is a tradition for families in rural Zamfara to rear rams and other domestic animals for sacrifice and sale, but the bandits have disrupted the plans by their action.
Some residents of the village fled the area for safety and I accommodated two of them in my house," a resident told newsmen.
While confirming the incident, the spokesman of Zamfara state police command, Lawan Abdullahi, informed that they were working with other security outfits to recover the stolen animals.
Abdullahi added that cattle rustling still exists in the area because of the difficult terrain in most areas in the state, saying most of the villages are inaccessible due to bad roads and poor telephone networks.
He, however, added that between June and August this year, the command in collaboration with the military was able to recover 2,219 stolen cows.
The police boss informed that the Divisional Police Officer attached to the local government and a suspected cattle rustler escaped lynching by a mob in Nassarawa Godel village earlier in the week.

Acquired: Breeder (non-professional, hobby breeder)
Gender: Female
United Kingdom
Posted Jan 22, 2013
Another animal that was my wife's! Cocky was an interesting case, because we answered an advert in the paper to a couple who had 2 budgies and 1 cockateil. We agreed to take them and when we got them, they were all living in the same cage. It became apparent though that they were not getting on, so Cocky got moved into a seperate cage.
In the beginning it didn't seem like there was much that these birds would actually do, but we had moved my wife's PC into the bedroom where the birds lived and she would let Cocky out to keep her company as she typed on the computer. A bond quickly developed and Cocky became more tame and allowed strokes by everyone else in the family. Unfortunately, not very long after we had her, she became ill. It seemed that she kept producing eggs, but they would get stuck and this caused problems and eventually she died. My wife was very sad about this and vowed never to purchase another bird!
Although it had a sad ending, I would still recommend a cockateil to someone looking to own a bird, though it may be best that you wait until your children are at least over 8 years old. Although they are not in the least bit aggressive, they are very fragile birds and younger, less controlled hands may hurt the bird. Cocky did not live as long as she was meant to, but this average lifespan is still much shorter than other birds from the parrot family, such as African Grey's. So if you are worried about having to say goodbye to your feathery friend you might want to think of buying a different breed.
Overall, Cocky was a beautiful and charming little thing and we still to this day miss her!

Obviously, this is written entirely for sad DOCTOR WHO fanboys (and girls) like me, but the fact is that I really loved Stephen Moffat's novelisation of his script for 'The Day of the Doctor'. That isn't a surprise. The only fanpeople who are ever going to pick this up is someone already primed to adore it.
It's Steven Moffat stretching himself. Taking his most well-regarded script (okay, we can debate about that, but it's certainly top three) and throwing it onto a much broader canvass. What I really enjoyed was the amount of depth he added to an already complex story. How much fan service was crammed in. This is a version of the tale with added River Song, added Peter Cushing, links to future stories like 'Listen' and 'The Zygon Invasion/The Zygon Inversion' and lovely jokes about The Silence and there being a Gallifreyan child with the distinctly Earth-like name of Susan.
It's clever and funny and everything you'd want from a Steven Moffat script in prose form. And if this is the last thing he ever writes in the DOCTOR WHO universe, then what a fantastic way to go out.
I listened to it on my Audible subscription ( they have some great podcasts as well as books, so I've rolled it over my subscription for a month) and have to say what a great job Nicholas Briggs did narrating it. Capturing the David Tennant, Matt Smith and John Hurt Doctors in a way which is instantly recognisable, without ever slipping into parody. His Capaldi might need more work (yes, he appears here for more than just an eyebrow shot) but he's still Scottish enough to appreciate. Obviously neither book or audio performance are going to supersede the TV version in my heart, but I'm still amazingly glad I took the time to enjoy them.
My debut novel, THE WANNABES – which has been out of print for a little while – is now available for free. A supernatural thriller of beautiful actresses and deadly ambition in London town, it's well worth your time. You can get your copy here!

- The Shiny Coin Syndrome and How to Combat It
The Shiny Coin Syndrome and How to Combat It
You're working on the next article for your website when you decide to listen to a podcast from one of your favorite entrepreneurs.
In this episode, the person being interviewed talks about how they started a website based around succulent plants and they make 80 grand a year from it.
You think to yourself, "Succulent plants? I know a good amount about those - I could easily do that!" and decide to abandon your current plan because you haven't seen any results from it and start a new website based around succulent plants.
After a few weeks or months of working on this new website, you hear another story about how someone started a business selling tactical gear on Amazon and they make 10 grand a month from it.
"Tactical gear? I love tactical gear! I'm gonna do that instead!"
You drop the succulent website for now and start working on your new tactical gear website.
...and the cycle continues.
This, my friends, is the shiny coin syndrome.
What is the Shiny Coin Syndrome?
The shiny coin syndrome (or shiny penny syndrome as it's sometimes called) is when business leaders or entrepreneurs get distracted by what they perceive to be the "next big thing" rather than focusing on the consistent (and sometimes seen as "boring") stuff that has a proven track record.
This is especially easily to fall into if you're someone like me who gets bored easily.
The end result is you have several half-finished projects and a frustrated, bruised ego.
So, how do you combat this productivity killer?
1. Ensure You Have a Plan in Place
It can sometimes be difficult, especially when working with SEO, to think your work is in vain because you can't see the big picture yet.
Having a plan that you can always come back to can help you realign when you're feeling distracted.
Write down your plan including the overall topic of your website, the articles you want to write, etc.
2. Celebrate Small Wins
Easily the best way to stay on task is to celebrate the small victories.
Did you finish your first article?
Reward yourself.
Did you complete your 10th article?
Reward yourself again!
Learning to celebrate these small wins will help motivate you as you'll know each time you complete a task that you'll be getting a reward (sometimes the actual completion of the task itself can be seen as the reward, too!)
3. Stop Listening to Success Stories
This one might sound counterintuitive.
Don't listen to stories that are supposed to motivate you?
Hear me out as this has helped me personally in a lot of ways.
I used to listen to popular entrepreneur podcasts and hear crazy stories of people making bank from simple businesses they created, such as the succulent website story I shared in the intorudction.
Rather than motivate me, it made me more and more aware of where I wasn't and actually discouraged me.
It also would sometimes distract me and make me jump ship on what I was doing and try something else which was a major waste of time on my part.
So, rather than focus on other people's success, I began to focus solely on my own which ended up helping me see the bigger picture and stay on task.
I'm not saying don't stop learning or taking advice from others, but once you get to a certain place where you know what you need to do, you have to shut everything out and just do the work.
4. Stay Consistent
It's all about being consistent.
If you noticed through the example I gave in the beginning, the person kept jumping from one thing to the next which culminated in several unfinished projects.
In order to build an actual, sustainable business you have to remain consistent and not half-ass anything.
You have to remain patient and keep chugging along no matter what life throws at you.
Keep your eye on the bigger picture, and keep pressing forward.
Eventually, you'll have your breakthrough.
Keep Taking Action!
While the shiny coin syndrome is a notorious productivity killer, it can be dealt with if you remain consistent with your business and stop allowing yourself to be distracted.

The first pic is "Our Fearless Leader" Kate Themel, SAQA/CT co-rep. Yes, I know. She and I are both the co-reps but, in fact, the way it really works is that she's "Our Fearless Leader" and I am the "Faithful Companion". Gosh, she does SUCH a remarkable job, one has to stand back and marvel.
The next pic is the SAQA/Mass RI rep Jeanne Marklin. She's showing her provocative piece about race in the US.
This last pic is of a FANTASTIC piece by Hiroko I-forgot-her-last-name who is a prospective member. This meeting was promoted as an open meeting and, because of that, there was an audience of non-member art quilters (we like to think of them as prospective) and members of the Windsor Art Center and general public attending to hear the artists' talks.
The day was unavoidably long because there was so much to do, so many art works to feast upon, so many people to talk to....no one wanted it to end. You had to be there!

A farmer attending a fair with a hundred pounds in his pocket, took the
precaution of depositing it in the hands of the landlord of the
public-house at which he stopped. Next day he applied for the money, but
the host affected to know nothing of the business. In this dilemma the
farmer consulted Curran. Have patience, my friend, said the counsel;
speak to the landlord civilly, and tell him you are convinced you must
have left your money with some other person. Take a friend with you, and
lodge with him another hundred, and then come to me. The dupe doubted
the advice; but, moved by the authority or rhetoric of the learned
counsel, he at length followed it. And now, sir, said he to Cumin, I
don't see as I am to be better off for this, if I get my second hundred
again; but how is that to be done? Go and ask him for it when he is
alone, said the counsel. Ay, sir, but asking won't do, I'ze afraid,
without my witness, at any rate. Never mind, take my advice, said
Curran; do as I bid you, and return to me. The farmer did so, and came
back with his hundred, glad at any rate to find that safe again in his
possession. Now, sir, I suppose I must be content; but I don't see as I
am much better off. Well, then, said the counsel, now take your
friend with you, and ask the landlord for the hundred pounds your friend
saw you leave with him. It need not be added, that the wily landlord
found that he had been taken off his guard, whilst the farmer returned
exultingly to thank his counsel, with both hundreds in his pocket.

Computer networking is one of the emerging computer technologies important for any organization, small or large, or even for all individuals. It facilitates the easy sharing of information between different computers as well as allows the local sharing of data, and connects a network with other networks.
Most of the networks mostly hook up to the global network called the internet. The internet, as we know, is a networking infrastructure connecting multiple computers globally and forms a network to facilitate communication between them.
A high-speed internet connection is recommended for connecting the computers on any network to the internet. The steps to connect your device to the internet is strongly dependent on the kind of internet access you have, which in turn is related to the available ISPs in your area.
Let us begin with the different types of internet connections available these days.
Types of Internet connections
To connect to the internet, you need to have specific hardware and select an Internet Service Provider (ISP). The kind of internet connection that you choose mostly relies on the ISPs available in your area and the services they can provide.
The various types of internet connections available are as follows
It is the slowest kind of internet connection and should be avoided unless it is the only service available in your locality. It uses your phone line for internet access and does not allow you to use the internet in tandem with your landline.
You will require multiple phone lines to use both of them simultaneously. Dial-up is almost obsolete now.
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)
DSL is a type of broadband connection and is remarkably faster than dial-up. It connects to the Internet via phone lines. But DSL allows you to use the internet and your phone line simultaneously.
Cable is another kind of broadband service and is very fast. Instead of opting for a phone line, you can ask your local cable company to provide internet service via the cable bringing the TV programming.
Satellite connection uses broadband but is devoid of any phone or cable lines. It connects to the internet through the satellites that orbit the Earth. You need to incorporate a satellite dish for the purpose.
That is why it can be used nearly anywhere worldwide. However, weather changes can affect the connectivity. It is comparatively slower than DSL or cable.
Wireless Hotspots
While carrying a wireless-enabled device like laptop or smartphone or tablet, if you are under the range of any wireless hotspot connection then your device automatically finds the connection. It makes the internet access available to you for a fee or free.
Such hotspots are available at different public places like cafe, hotels, malls, airports, railway stations, etc.
Cellular networks
I am sure you are aware of 3G and 4G services. You can connect to the internet from your mobile networks by the 3G and 4G services. However, they are not as fast as DSL or cable. Also, there might be limitations in the amount of data usage per month.
How to select an Internet Service Provider (ISP)?
As you are now aware of the different types of Internet connections, you are probably keen to know which ISP you should choose and how. Well, choosing an ISP, as stated earlier, will largely depend on their availability in your locality.
You can consult your friends and neighbors about the ISPs they use. You can readily get to know about the ISPs in this way. There are also certain points you should consider while selecting an ISP, as discussed below.
Network speed
Different ISPs provide different upload and download speed, usually measured in Mbps (megabits per second). For example, if you require an internet connection for email and social networking only, a slower internet connection (like 2 to 5 Mbps) will serve the purpose.
But a faster connection (5 Mbps and above) is demanded for downloading files or streaming videos.
Suggested read – Megabits vs Megabytes
You must find out about the service plans, installation charges, and discount packages. You may get a discount for a few months if the package is in collaboration with your television or phone service. The faster the connection, the higher is the price
Terms of Service
ISPs may restrict the kinds of activities you can do. Also, there may be data caps limiting your data usage. So make sure about all the terms.
Again, do not get locked in long-term contracts in exchange for cut down rates. Technologies and requirements are continually changing, and your plan might get outdated due to them
Your ISP may promise you that there will be a proper internet connection all the time and if it does not satisfy the criteria, they will refund a portion of your money. Make sure they live up to what they say and are trustworthy.
Such promises are documented in the Service Level Agreement (SLA).
Customer Support
You must figure out how readily your ISP can help you when in trouble. Find out if they have provision to be contacted by phone call, email or WhatsApp.
What hardware and software are required to connect to the Internet?
The hardware necessary for connecting to the internet is a modem or a router.
The kind of internet access you have will determine the type of modem required. Use a telephone modem for dial-up access, DSL modem for DSL service, cable modem for cable access and satellite adapter for satellite service.
Your ISP offers you a modem for a fee. Or else, you can buy it separately at your own cost.
A router is used when connecting many computers and other devices to a single internet connection, also called the home network. Each device then connects to the internet through an Ethernet cable or wirelessly.
Wireless routers permit you to create a home wireless network, popularly called Wi-Fi network. Sometimes, a modem has a built-in router facility and allows you to have a Wi-Fi network without purchasing extra hardware.
Setting up the internet connection
Now, assuming that you have a good knowledge about different internet connections and ISPs, let us proceed about how to connect your device to the internet.
Setting up a Dial-up internet connection
Dial-up internet connection is backdated and very slow. It is not preferred by users anymore. Still, it can be found in some rural areas.
- Dial-up internet needs a phone line and can connect one person per phone at an instance. Most of the new computers lack components to support dial-up. Hence, often an external USB modem is bought additionally.
- Often a dial-up internet provides two phone lines, one for the modem and one for the phone. Connect one of them to the phone jack on the wall and the modem.
- Using the other line, insert one end in the modem and the other end in the modem jack of the computer.
- The phone jack in the computer must be noted by a small phone next to it.
- Manually set up the dial-up connection on your computer and complete the modem settings. For connecting the first time, configure the modem's network settings, and this may differ from OS to OS. However basic pieces of information required are the same, like dial-up phone number, username, and password.
- After all settings are done, open a web page to test your connectivity. It may take time to load as the dial-up internet is very slow.
Setting up a cable internet connection
Make sure your computer is close to a wall cable socket.
- Plug one end your cable modem to the computer and the other end into the socket.
- Plug in the modem's power cord. Few modems may have on/off switches. Mostly, plugging and unplugging aids in turning them on and off respectively.
- The cable modem takes some time in booting when turned on. The process ends when the majority of the lights on it are switched on and have stopped blinking except one.
- Contact your ISP if you have bought a new modem. You will need the serial number and MAC address of the modem, written on the bottom or its side.
- To test the internet connectivity, open the web browser and go to a website you have never visited before. If it loads, then your connection is successful. Going to a site you have been to of late is not advisable as the browser may load it from its cache.
Setting up a DSL internet connection
To set up a DSL internet connection, the first four steps are the same as cable internet connection. Only, the modem is DSL modem instead of a cable modem.
- Then, type the IP address of the modem in the address bar of a browser to log in to the administrative screen of the modem. The IP address is usually printed on the modem or obtained from its manual.
- Enter your DSL account username and password on this screen into the PPPoE (Point to point protocol over Ethernet) fields. The username is generally an email address. Contact your DSL ISP if the criteria are not known to you.
- Save your settings. The internet light must turn green to show that you are online.
- To test your connection, do as you read before for a cable modem.
Connecting using an Ethernet cable
Devices can connect to the router by an ethernet cable directly. However, if a device, for example, a laptop, does not have components to use the ethernet cable, get the necessary adapter.
- Connect one end of the ethernet cable to the broadband source, which is a router, or a modem in some cases, and the other end of the cable to the ethernet jack of your computer, located in the back of it.
- Set up your computer settings so that it recognizes the ethernet. Most probably, you need to turn off the wireless connections to allow your computer to recognize the ethernet connection.
- For testing the connectivity, open a page in the web browser and observe if it loads.
- Troubleshoot if you cannot connect. Make sure the cable, the jack and the router are functioning correctly. Reset router if required or else contact your ISP.
Connecting using wireless broadband
- Ensure that the wifi connection of your device is on.
- Navigate to the network settings or click on the wifi icon on the computer's toolbar. It displays a list with the names of available connections in the nearby area.
- Find the name of your wifi network.
- The network may require a password for establishing a connection. The default password can be obtained from the router or else ask the person in charge of the network.
- It takes a few seconds for the computer to connect.
- To test connectivity, try opening a reputed and reliable web page to ensure it opens and does not crash.
So, this is how you can establish different internet connections. But sometimes you may face problem connecting to the internet. Let's see what all you need to do then.
Can't connect to the internet. What to do?
Many things can go wrong and cause trouble connecting to the internet. Let us see what are they and how to deal with them.
Do not miss the obvious
Often we confidently overlook the point whether the network cables are loose and unplugged. Maybe someone at home unplugged the router, and you are not aware of it. Instead, you go into the panic mode of failed internet connection.
Make sure your wired/wireless network hardware is turned on and plugged in tightly.
Do not jump to the conclusion at one go
The website you visited may be temporarily down. So do not conclude that there is no internet connectivity by just visiting one site. Go through several reliable sites before considering your connection defective.
Have IP address conflicts?
Two devices on the same network, when possessing the same IP address, function improperly. Resolve the conflict for uninterrupted connectivity and their proper working.
For example, manually change the IP address if your network uses static IP addresses.
Have you gone outside your wireless signal range?
The farther your device is from the wireless access point, the slower is the connection until it breaks. Thus, the distance between them determines the performance of the wifi network.
If you fall outside the available range, it is inevitable that you will not get the internet connection.
Technical glitches and changed settings
Technical faults with the router like overheating, huge traffic are some obstructions that prevent the computer from the internet connection.
Also, if the encryption keys and passphrase on the access point are modified, devices previously working will be precluded from establishing a connection.
Make sure these vital specifications are not changed unknowingly.
Did your ISP block you?
Not paying the subscription on time or indulging in activities like sending spam emails, downloading illegal content or exceeding bandwidth caps may prompt your ISP to block you. Contact your ISP to solve this issue.
Therefore, we see that there is scope for various problems when connecting to the internet. Try to figure it out and act accordingly.
To have internet access, you need to choose the type of internet connection depending upon the ISP's availability in your area. Hardware like modem or router will be required as per your choice of internet connection – whether it is DSL, cable, satellite or wireless.
Select the type of internet connection suitable for you after doing thorough research on the various types available, their advantages and see if their features suffice your requirements. For example, dial-up internet is the cheapest but slowest. You should choose it when it is the only option left to you. Otherwise, prefer broadband connection which is faster and offers better performance.
You should be wise in choosing your ISP, considering essential points like its availability, speed, reliability, contract, customer care, etc. to get the best service in the price you can afford. Take help from your ISP in setting up the connection. Contact them if you are in trouble and cannot find the reason.

March 15 � To the Editor:
No matter what your opinion about guns in our society, I think we can all agree that threatening or intimidating politicians or government officials with the threat of gun violence is wrong. The people making threats, even in casual comments, may not be the people who end up pulling the trigger, but their hateful speech can inspire others to actually take action. Look at what happened to Gabby Gifford and Steve Scalise, for example.
That makes the incident highlighted on the front page of Foster�s, where a raffle table was set up at the State House in Concord ostensibly to support the Women�s Defense League, so troubling. Let�s be clear � they did not name the gun �Cherry Frost� after a �cherry frost slushie at 7-Eleven�, as Bob Clegg tried to explain. This sophomoric display, set up at the State House, can clearly be interpreted as a threat to Representative Sherry Frost, of Dover.
This childish incident, on top of the embarrassing string of pearls display, is sad. We see this now in our politics � politicians acting like spoiled kids � remember the �Liar, Liar, pants on fire� poster in the Michael Cohen hearings? There is no place for this in a civil society. I hope New Hampshire citizens will speak at the ballot box and vote out anyone supporting this horrible behavior.
Dr. Linda Rhodes

Gold Rises to Near Record Nominal Highs in British Pounds but Lags in EurosCommodities / Gold and Silver 2010 Oct 06, 2010 - 11:18 AM GMT
All currencies except for the yen have fallen against gold today. The dollar and sterling have sold off again and the dollar is looking technically vulnerable at 77.61 on the US Dollar Index. Currency markets continue to be the primary focus of markets with growing concerns about competitive currency devaluations. The IMF is now warning of currency wars and the increasing vulnerability of the global financial system.
Gold is currently trading at $1,344.30/oz, €969.14/oz, £847.60/oz.
Gold in GBP - 6 Months (Daily).
Printing money and inflation of the currency is a short term panacea but the medicine may in the long term do more damage than good. This will motivate more defensive investors to allocate more funds to gold.
Gold's recent rise has been primarily a function of the recent fall in the dollar and to a lesser extent sterling's fall against the euro and other currencies (see charts). Gold has also been strong in sterling and may challenge the record nominal sterling high of £857.22/oz in the coming days on further sterling weakness.
Gold in Euros - 6 Months (Daily).
Gold remains well below its euro high of €1,040.18/oz and actually fell in euro terms in September. The euro will likely fall again versus gold in the coming months when the euro again comes under pressure due to a continuation, and possible deterioration, of the bank and sovereign debt crisis.
Gold in USD and GBP - 10 Year (Weekly).
The spectre of competitive currency devaluations loomed large for some months but were only recognised by many market participants and commentators recently. Similarly, today the threat of trade wars and capital controls is increasing but remains unacknowledged. The present macroeconomic and monetary conditions are likely to lead to a continuation and possibly a deepening of gold's bull market in all fiat currencies. However, gold is not rising in value - rather fiat currencies are being devalued and are falling against the finite currency and monetary reserve that is gold.
Silver is currently trading at $22.86/oz, €16.48/oz and £14.41/oz.
Platinum Group Metals
Platinum is trading at $1,697.25/oz, palladium is at $584/oz and rhodium is at $2,175/oz.

There's no question that your 20's is a very unique stage of your life. There's an anxious but exhilarating feeling about becoming an adult, moving out of home, and being financially self-reliant. Whether or not you kicked off a career, a university degree, or spent time traveling the world and gaining life experience, your 20's is a momentous decade from both a personal and financial context. Whichever path you choose, the one constant that will continually remain in your life is money.
The fact of the matter is, the earlier you begin saving money and building wealth, the better your financial condition will be in the upcoming years. Regardless of whether you intend to get married, start a family, or secure a home, there are a number of financial objectives that every individual in their 20's should try to achieve so as to secure a better a future. In this article, we'll be taking a closer look at these objectives and how you can begin creating healthy financial habits.
Construct a budget
Creating healthy financial habits starts with understanding how to budget. Being able to spend less money than you earn is the key to saving money, so start taking control of your finances by putting together a budget and sticking to it! With a paper and pen, jot down your monthly income and costs. Explore your expenses to uncover which can be lowered, or which can be eliminated completely. A few ways to cut your expenditures are choosing to eat at home in lieu of eating in restaurants and replacing your Cable TV subscription to streaming services like Netflix instead.
Eliminate your debts
Whether or not you've travelled the world or have student loan debts, the faster you repay these debts, the better. Interest compounds over time, so paying off your debts by reducing expenses or working a second job can save you thousands of dollars in only a few years. These savings can then be invested in a high-interest term deposit as an example, which will put you in a significantly better financial position than just making the minimal monthly repayments on your debts.
Develop an emergency fund
Life almost never works out the way you planned, so it is crucial to be prepared for any unforeseen adjustments that may be required. You might end up out of a job, or in an incident that hinders you from working, so having an emergency fund will be able to give you a bit of breathing room when you need it the most. Financial specialists propose that all individuals should have a dedicated emergency fund that can support their living expenses for 3 to 6 months.
Be insured
Insurance protects you financially from any detrimental consequences, for example income insurance in case you lose your job, medical insurance for unexpected medical expenses, and vehicle insurance in the event that your car is stolen. Though it's not necessarily recommended to get every type of insurance available, it's undoubtedly a smart idea to evaluate your individual circumstances to see which is best suited to you. For example, health insurance is highly recommended for everyone due to the high costs of uninsured medical treatment. Without insurance, an unforeseen incident may cause significant damage to your financial situation.
Invest in a diversified portfolio
If you've been able to save a particular amount of money that is otherwise sitting idle in the bank, look into investing this money in a high-interest term deposit. After you've got more money saved, think about buying a property, or investing in gold. The key to a well-founded investment portfolio is 'diversification', meaning that you regulate the risks of investment by putting your eggs in different baskets, so to say.
Get financial help immediately
If, for whatever reason, you've found yourself in financial hardship, the best advice is to seek financial help as soon as possible. Lots of folks wrestle with financial problems for many years before getting help, which puts them in a worse position as their debts will only compound with time. The sooner you get financial guidance, the more options are available to you, so if you require any support with your financial condition, speak with the specialists at Bankruptcy Wagga Wagga on 1300 818 575, or visit our website for additional information: http://www.bankruptcy-waggawagga.com.au/

Is Genetic disorders a cause of Low Sperm Count
Scientists are to carry out a study that Genetic Factor is to be important contributors to sperm count and male infertility. Genetic factors are behind the increasing infertility in men. In fact, even in men with no known fertility problems, 19% of the sperm are genetically defective.
According to our previous research, suggested that diet, lifestyle, smoking or even dress may contribute to the increase of this problems which comes under in genetic disorder. Some important evidence proof that "due to genetic disorder, male reproductive function seems to have deteriorated considerably in the past four to five decades".
The lower the sperm count, the more genetic defects were observed. Researches proof, there are around 43% of men have low sperm count and male infertility. Concerns have been raised that children conceived through IVF are at an increased risk of genetic imprinting disorders.
Abnormalities in genes that specifically regulate sperm production and quality are major factors in male infertility. Impact of adverse genetic environmental factors such as hormone disrupters, disruption in Sertoli Cell function, leads to reduced semen quality and testicular cancer.
Cause of Low Sperm Count
These are some Inherited Disorders that Affect Fertility:-
Wiedemann syndrome, which causes too much growth and is linked with an increased chance of tumors.
Angelman's syndrome, which affects the development of the brain.
Cystic fibrosis, patients often has missing or obstructed vas deferens (the tubes that carry sperm) and hence a low sperm count.
Klinefelter syndrome patients carry two X and one Y chromosomes (the norm is one X and one Y), which leads to the destruction of the lining of the seminiferous tubules in the testicles during puberty, although most other male physical attributes are unimpaired.
Kartagener syndrome, a rare disorder that is associated with a reversed position of the major organs, also includes immotile cilia (hair-like cells in lungs and sinuses that have a structure similar to the tails of sperm). Germ cells may also be affected by this condition.
Polycystic kidney disease, a relatively common genetic disorder that causes large cysts to form on the kidneys and other organs during adulthood, may cause infertility as the first symptom if cysts develop in the reproductive tract.
Testicular dysgenesis syndrome (TDS), that it is likely to be caused by environmental factors as well as, genetic disorders. Their proposal is based on well-established understanding of the way in which the male reproductive tract develops, particularly the way that variation in fetal hormonal levels can lead to disease and dysfunction.
Professor said couples undergoing fertility treatment, can help to male fertility issue because the man had a low sperm count should be counseled about the risk of their child being affected by a genetic condition. "What the patient then does with that information is up to them. They have to decide whether to take the risk of not have a child." Scientists could carry out tests on sperm to see if men were affected, than they give better solution according their problem so it may more helpful to them.
