That was quick and easy. The credit card bill came due today for $1,447 and on the statement it showed Katy had earned 112,000 points (not sure about the few points discrepancy). I paid the bill, registered the card online, and ordered our two Hyatt multi-night stay vouchers (worth $900 each) in a span of about five minutes.
That was a terrific promotion and so she got accepted. The Hyatt certs will be here in two to three weeks and I already have a plan for them. We are going back to Kauai in December and I'll book a multi-night stay at the same Hyatt where we stayed last year. With $1,800 in certs we should be able to cover four nights of luxury. It may seem wasteful, but when you consider our actual cost was only 2-5 points on Katy's credit score, she deserves another break.

IHG® Rewards Club Select Credit Card
- Annual Fee: $49 fee waived for the first year
- Foreign Fees: No
- Card Type: Hotel
The IHG Rewards Club Visa is often cited as one of the most underrated hotel credit cards, with good reason. The official offer is for 70,000 points after $1,000 spent within three months, with the first year's fee waived. The card comes with an annual free night certificate that can be used at any IHG property, including Intercontinental hotels - making this certificate worth upwards of 50,000 points. This is far more generous than some other hotel cards, which limit the categories in which free night certificates can be redeemed.
Cardholders earn 5 points per dollar at IHG hotels; 2 points per dollar at gas stations, grocery stores, and restaurants; 1 point per dollar everywhere else. Moreover, you'll get a 10% rebate on award redemptions, up to 100,000 points per year. The card also comes with Platinum status, though that doesn't get you much with IHG. Still, this is a fantastic card to have in your wallet, with benefits that far outweigh the already low $49 annual fee.
- Earn 70,000 bonus points after you spend $1,000 in the first 3 months of account opening
- Enjoy a free night of card membership at over 4,700 hotels worldwide
- Earn 5 points for each $1 spent at our hotels

What do I need to do to get the power button working?
The power button on my iPhone was not working so i took it apart, and replaced the headphone jack assembly, got it all back together and it still doesnt work! When you push the button it doesnt go down at all? Does the little latch that is under the button just go towards the the back housing or did I put the button in incorrectly? Thanks
Edited by: oldturkey03 ( )
Accepted Answer
I'm quite sure that I put my replacement harness in correctly, but I can't get it to work either. The phone is constantly on and I can't get it to sleep by just tapping the sleep/power button...
I've tried complete reformat and restore, downgrading the OS etc but still no go...
I'm as lost as you. I can't think of anything else other than the motherboard that can be wrong, but I'm unsure what. A new motherboard is >$100 so that's not an option...
Success!! I completely took it apart again. Removed the display assembly (but not separating this), mother board and sync connector. Cleaning everything by blowing clean, compressed air (from a aerosol can) in every nook and cranny and trying to get air in between the mother board and the RF sheilding from all directions, blowing everywhere on the back case and on and around the buttons (that where still in the case) and on all connectors (both on the mother board and on the flex cables). Then assembled everything again, making 100% sure that all the connectors where correctly seated. Turn it back on and loo and behold! Everything works like a charm!! I can turn it on and off, I can enter DFU mode and it doesn't reboot as soon as I unplug the sync cable!! Dang, I'm a happy camper now!! :D PS. Just in case this haden't worked, my next attemt would have been to spray/use some 'electronic cleaning solvent'.
Hi, I had the same problem. Mounted and remounted everything with no succes until I ran out of battery and found out I could not plug in the charger cable... So I dismunted everything and found out that the Dock COnnector was wrongly mounted. It should be mounted above the two little metal brackets at the bottom of the iPhone. Re-mounted and works perfect now...

Whether you bake, boil, steam or fry it, this versatile vegetable is cool in the tuber!
Sweet potatoes, also known as kumara and yams, are root vegetables only distantly related to potatoes. Native to South America, sweet potatoes are grown in tropical climates worldwide.
Choose smooth potatoes with clean skins. Avoid those with black spots or soft patches. Store in a cool, dark, well ventilated place for up to 2 weeks.
Peel or scrub skin well and remove ends before use. Sweet potatoes discolour quickly once peeled, so place in water until ready to use. Sweet potato is very versatile and can be steamed, mashed, baked or fried, or even used in cakes.
Sweet potatoes are rich in vitamin A and are a good source of manganese, vitamins B6 and C and fibre. Orange sweet potatoes are medium-GI, while purple and white varieties are high. For extra fibre, eat sweet potato with the skin intact.

School Prospectus
Albrighton Primary School is a caring school which has 8 classes, for children between the ages of 4 and 11. The school is based in two buildings on the same site. Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1 (ages 4-7) are based in one and Key Stage 2 (ages 7-11) in the other. The school is based in an idyllic setting on the edge of the beautiful village of Albrighton in rural Shropshire. We have extensive grounds with two junior football pitches, two large playgrounds, a heated outdoor swimming pool with changing rooms and a wooded area, which we use as our base for our Forest School's work. We have a tyre park, an outdoor fitness trail and a well established pond and school garden to keep the children active.
Inside the school, in addition to the classrooms, we also have multi purpose rooms, two computer suites, two library areas, two halls, a dining room and a stage on which the children perform productions and class assemblies. All the classrooms are equipped with interactive whiteboards and projectors. We offer a before and after school childcare provision, which is expertly run by Albrighton Flyers and is extremely popular with working parents. We offer a variety of lunchtime and afterschool clubs which vary from term to term but include; Cookery, Art, Netball, Football, Cricket, Tag Rugby, Chess, Cross Country, Gymnastics, Tennis, Choir, Ocarina, Recorder, Rounders, Hockey, Multi Skills and Drumming.
The school was last inspected by Ofsted in January 2013. This can be found by logging on to www.ofsted.gov.uk.
Thank you for your interest in Albrighton Primary School. We hope that this Prospectus will serve as a useful introduction to our school. We extend a warm welcome to you and your family to come and see our school at work. Please telephone for an appointment, we would be pleased to show you around.

The School Governors play a vital role in the life of our school. They are involved in monitoring the school budget, the school curriculum, the state of the building and interviewing and selecting staff. The Governors meet regularly, at least once a term and their support is greatly appreciated. One of our Governors is based at DCAE Cosford and helps us to maintain our strong links with the base.
Mission Statement
We aim to encourage and foster the development of each child, intellectually, physically, socially and emotionally within a safe, caring and disciplined environment. Through a supportive and creative curriculum, we nurture curious, creative children who respond to new challenges with enthusiasm and confidence.
All children are encouraged to be sensitive to the needs of others, to have a sense of fairness and justice and an ability to value the contribution of each individual. We promote partnerships with parents and the wider community and with their support develop mutual respect and responsibility. We are sensitive to the needs of children facing challenges, and provide the necessary support. We encourage attitudes of tolerance, co-operation, perseverance, independence and responsibility and endeavour to develop children who have a positive and healthy attitude to life-long learning.
Admissions Policy
Shropshire LA permits admission from September in the year in which the child is five years old. Children usually therefore start school after the summer holiday although later admission is possible in some cases and by prior arrangement with the school. In-year admissions are handled by school. Please contact us directly. The standard admission number for Albrighton Primary School is 45. We have good links with the local Early Years providers, and many of our children attend one of the private nurseries in the village.
Parents are welcome to bring their children to look around the school before applying for a place. We want the transition from home and playgroup or nursery to school to be a happy one. All new entrants make two pre-school visits in the half term before they start school. We hope that our school is friendly and that there will be few difficulties when children join us. If you do have any concerns, do not hesitate to talk to us about them and we will do our best to resolve any problems.
During the first year in school children take part in a range of assessment activities, known as the Early Years Foundation Stage Profile.
The School Day
School doors open 8.50 am
School begins 9.00 am
Morning break 10.30 - 10.45 am
Lunch break
12.00 - 1.10 pm Foundation/Key Stage 1
12.15 - 1.15 pm Key Stage 2
End of school 3.20 pm
Parents are requested to bring their children to school, between 8.50 am and 9.00 am. Children should not arrive on the premises before 8.40 am as supervision cannot be provided. Parents must not drive their cars onto the school drive or car parks, nor should they park on the yellow zig zag lines. The safety of the children is our prime concern. Parents and children should use the side entrance and footpath when entering and leaving the FS and KS1 building, and the main entrance for KS2. For general enquiries the main reception should be used at the KS2 site and we ask all visitors to report to this building initially.
Curriculum Organisation
Children begin their schooling in the Reception class. The first year of school is known as the Early Years Foundation Stage and Years 1 and 2 make up Key Stage 1, Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 make up Key Stage 2. At Albrighton Primary School we cater for children to the end of Key Stage 2. At the end of each Key Stage there will be testing of National Curriculum core subjects in English and Mathematics.
Go4it Award
The school was awarded the Go4it Award in 2012. The 'Gold' standard is the highest possible outcome a school can achieve. A Go4it school is defined below:
has an approach to learning that encourages activities and experiences purposefully designed to embrace 'can-do' outcomes and is a school that demonstrates it is constantly working to enhance a culture of creativity, positive risk taking and adventure for learning is buzzing with excitement and activity, providing an environment where achievements are celebrated and promoted throughout the school, community and the press embraces learning outside the classroom, has stimulating notice boards crammed with pupil learning, events, news, photos and advertisements for clubs and trips so pupils are fully engaged with every aspect of the school has dynamic and visionary leadership, working in an inclusive way with staff, governors, community members, other schools, students and parents and where leaders are not afraid to be creative with the curriculum to enrich learning is values driven and fully embraces the diverse needs of pupils and community has a strong student voice.
Class Organisation
All children are in the charge of a class teacher who has overall responsibility for their well being. Classes are mixed ability and the staff use various teaching strategies including whole class teaching, group work and individual teaching to ensure continuity and progression for all the children. As our statutory intake number is 45 this necessitates that some classes are single age and some are mixed age, covering two year groups. Organisation changes from year to year depending on the number of children in any one cohort.
Admission of Pupils with Disabilities
We pride ourselves on the inclusiveness of our provision. We have full disabled access (ramps, disabled toilet, and wide corridors) for disabled pupils and have accommodated one wheelchair bound child very successfully throughout her schooling. We have an accessibility plan (as required under the Disability Discrimination Act 1995) which is updated regularly and is available on request.
Our Aims
We aim to:
Develop in children lively, enquiring minds and the ability to apply themselves to tasks
Create a caring community in which each child can grow up and develop his or her own personality
Develop each child to his or her maximum potential in all curriculum areas
Develop in the children a thoughtful, considerate attitude to others, and a respect and tolerance of other races, religions and ways of life
Achieve high academic standards as well as high standards of discipline, behaviour and morals
Parental Involvement
A school cannot work successfully without the support and confidence of parents. We want you to feel involved with Albrighton Primary School and to know that we recognise the vital role you play in your child's education. The school has a Home/School Agreement which all parents and children are asked to sign and adhere to.
We recognise the importance of strong links between home and school. From the moment you decide that Albrighton is the school that you wish your child to attend, we strive to maintain a working relationship so that your child's progress can be monitored carefully.
Special opportunities are made each term for parents to look at their children's work and discuss their progress with each teacher. During the summer term, you will be presented with your child's annual written report. An open evening is then arranged when staff are available to discuss the report. However, if it is difficult for you to attend on these occasions, staff are very willing to meet with parents at a mutually agreed time.
If you have any questions, fears or doubts - or just need to talk something through, please call in and we will do our best to help. We prefer to talk at the time of concern, we do not expect parents to wait until Parent's Evening.
We value the help of parents and friends in school enormously. We have regular helpers who share their time and talents with the children. If you would like to help in this way, please mention it to your child's teacher or to Mrs Bratt. You will be very welcome. All helpers are subject to a police check through the Criminal Records Bureau, for the protection of all children.
At least once a year each class performs a Class Assembly to which parents of those children are invited to attend. At the end of the each term we celebrate with an Awards Assembly and again the parents of those children with awards are personally invited.
The Curriculum - An Overview
The school follows the statutory requirements of the National Curriculum within the framework of carefully planned programmes of study. The school's Assessment, Marking and Monitoring Policy ensures progression in learning. Individual records of attainment and the children's annotated work are kept and are available for parents at any time.
The curriculum consists of 3 core subjects, Mathematics, Science and English, and foundation subjects - Information Technology, History, Geography, Music, Art, Physical Education, Design and Technology, Modern Foreign Languages (Key Stage 2) and Religious Education. A termly information sheet is sent home to each child's parents informing them of the curriculum coverage for that term so that parents are fully informed of their child's work.
The scheme of work has been designed as a rolling programme so that all the children in each year group have the same experiences and the level at which the child encounters these experiences will be dependant on their previous experiences, understanding and knowledge.
The school's Homework Policy is issued to parents when the child starts school. The amount and type of homework varies between year groups. All the children are encouraged to read at home regularly. Books are sent home in a 'reading bag', with a Reading Diary in which parents, the child and teachers are encouraged to write comments.Relationships and Sex Education
At Albrighton Primary, we believe that effective Relationships and Sex Education appropriate to the children's stage of development is essential if they are to grow to make informed decisions about their lives.
The school is legally required to teach certain aspects of Sex Education as part of the National Curriculum in Science. It is also taught within the PSHE programme and informally through school visits e.g. Ray's Farm.
Parents have the right to withdraw their children from non-statutory elements of RSE.
Learning Support
Children who may require learning support are usually first identified by teacher observation and assessment. The teacher will discuss this with the child's parents so that we may plan together how best to meet the needs of the child, through additional support or intervention programmes. Occasionally this involves help from the Learning Support Advisory Teacher, Behaviour Support Teacher or the School Educational Psychologist. Parents are involved at each stage so that we can work together to encourage and support the child. In some cases it may be necessary to safeguard the needs of the child by drawing up a statement of his or her special needs. This is done through consultation with all those involved with the child and the LA. Gifted children are equally considered to have special needs and the school curriculum ensures that appropriate provision is made for them. There is a Special Educational Needs Policy which is available on request.
The school is renowned for its inclusive nature, successfully providing placements for physically disabled children and children with other specific learning difficulties. We strive to create a sense of community and belonging for all our pupils. We have an inclusive ethos with high expectations where children are able to access a broad and balanced curriculum.
Equal Opportunities
In accordance with the school's Equal Opportunities Policy, all children at Albrighton Primary School must be given full access to the National Curriculum. Staff will endeavour to help all children to reach their full potential irrespective of race, gender, age or ability
Positive Behaviour
To celebrate success To create harmony within our school environment To communicate well To create a safe and happy playground environment At school we work towards standards of behaviour based on the basic principles of honesty, respect, consideration and responsibility. There are school rules and we celebrate success in a variety of ways.
Fruit and Water
As part of our Healthy School's initiative, all the children in Foundation and Key Stage 1, are provided with a piece of fresh fruit or vegetable (banana, strawberries, apple, Satsuma, tomatoes, pear, mange tout or carrots) at morning break. This is provided free of charge in FS and KS1 and a small charge of 11p per portion at KS2. In addition, all children are encouraged to bring in a water bottle on a daily basis to ensure they keep well hydrated.
School Travel Plan
We have a School Travel Plan which is reviewed yearly. We encourage walking to school wherever possible. We also take part in National Walk to School Week every October and May, as well as other initiatives eg National WOW Competitions. In 2012 the school had two winners of the National Competition with their designs made into WoW Badges and repeated this in 2013 with a further winning entry!
Health and Welfare
Long term illness - the Headteacher must be made aware of illnesses such as asthma, allergies, epilepsy or diabetes in order that proper care may be given.
Medicals - health checks, including dental inspections, take place during your child's time with us.
The County Council provides insurance cover to protect children should they suffer injury, damage or loss whilst at school. It also provides personal accident and business travel insurance which covers school trips and outings.
Child Protection
Everyone in the school shares an objective to help keep children safe by contributing to providing a safe environment for them to learn and to identify those who are suffering or likely to suffer significant harm, and by taking appropriate action or making sure they are kept safe both at home and at school.
Parents play an important role in protecting their children from abuse. The school is required to consider the safety of the pupil and should a concern arise, professional advice will be sought prior to contacting parents. Parents will be contacted, and the school will continue to work with the parents to support the needs of the child. The school aims to help parents understand that the school, like all others, has a duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of all pupils. The school may need to share information and work in partnership with other agencies when there are concerns about a pupil's welfare. We have two trained designated teachers for child protection and the whole staff receives child protection training every 3 years.
Medicines in School
We are not permitted to administer medicines to any child without the written permission of the parent concerned. Should your child require medication prescribed by a doctor, it should be brought into school by an adult, and a medicine form completed and signed. This gives permission for the school to administer the medicine and states the dose and time at which it is to be given. Medical forms are available from the Office. In general, children in the early stages of a course of anti-biotic treatment should not be at school. We greatly appreciate your co-operation in this. Medicines brought into school are stored securely and asthma inhalers are kept in individual classrooms for ease of accessibility.
Sick Children
If your child is taken ill, we will contact you as soon as possible so that you can collect him/her from school. Should a child have an accident at school, their parents will be contacted immediately and medical help sought, if necessary. If your child seems unwell then he/she is probably better spending the day at home. It would be very helpful if you could let us know of any infectious diseases, e.g. German measles etc. When a child has been physically sick, we ask that they remain at home for at least 48 hours after the last bout of sickness.
School Health Service
The following information sets out the arrangements for routine services provided by the School Health Service in conjunction with the school. The school has a named School Nurse, Mrs Lin Harper, who is based at Donnington Clinic and whose telephone number is 01952 621340. The school also has a School Doctor, who is a Community Paediatrician. During your child's second term at school, he or she will have a general health check, including a screening of height and weight, and a hearing test. This will be carried out by the School Nurse after signed consent has been received. At some time during the first year at school, your child will also have a vision test carried out by the Orthoptist.
The School Health Service now operates a system of selective medicals. During their first year, and preferably their second term at school, children are considered for such medicals, if concerns are expressed by the School Nurse, School Doctor or parents. In all cases full discussions will take place with parents and parental consent obtained before any examination takes place.
If you have any concerns about your child's health in school, including bedwetting, soiling and behaviour at home, you can contact the School Nurse who will be pleased to discuss those concerns with the Doctor. The Doctor will then contact you and may arrange an appointment.
Please note that the school and its grounds is a No Smoking environment.
School Uniform
The school colours are navy blue, white and grey. The uniform consists of grey trousers, skirts or pinafore dresses, white polo shirts or blouse and navy blue school sweatshirts or cardigans, both of which can be purchased from the school office. In the summer, children may wear blue gingham dresses or short sleeved blouses or grey shorts and short sleeved shirts. All uniform should be clearly marked with your child's name, preferably with name tape. All children should wear sensible, flat, black shoes. Fashion shoes and boots with high heels are totally unsuitable for school and are a danger when children are moving around quickly on the playground. Sensible sandals may be worn in the summer (no particular colour).
PE - The kit for indoor and outdoor PE is a white top (T shirt or vest) and navy blue shorts. Indoor PE is usually done in bare feet and for outdoor PE the children will need pumps. We suggest any kit is placed in a suitably marked pump bag (these are available in school with the logo) with the child's name.
Lost Property
All lost property which has no name marked will be stored for half a term and displayed by the children's entrance at FS/KS1 and in boxes in the dining room at KS2. Please make sure all items of clothing are clearly marked, with your child's name, preferably on a shop produced name tag. All items of school wear look very similar!
The only jewellery which may be worn are stud earrings and these should be removed on PE days (you will be informed by your child's teacher when these are). Rings are not allowed.
School Meals
A hot cooked meal, provided by our Cook, Mrs Blackburn, is available every day. The school promotes a healthy eating policy and offers a choice of 3 dishes daily, including fresh fruit and salads. The menu is displayed on the notice board, and has a 4 week rotation (we have copies of the menus which parents can take home). Dinner money can be paid daily, weekly, monthly or termly either by cheque (payable to Shropshire Council) or cash. School lunches are free to all KS1 children. The cost of a meal for KS2 children is currently £2.00. Children may bring packed lunches. Sweets and chocolate bars are not allowed in school either as a snack or within a packed lunch (one cake bar or chocolate biscuit is thought to be sufficient). Drinks (not fizzy) should be in unbreakable, leak-proof containers in clearly labelled lunch boxes. Dinners and packed lunches are eaten in the dining room at KS2, where the children are helped by supervisory assistants. Parents in receipt of Job Seekers Allowance/Income Support may be eligible for free school meals. Application forms, available from the office, are treated in the strictest confidence.
This is an unfortunate problem in modern life. Constant checks by parents are needed to prevent the spread of head lice. Information, advice on treatment and head lice combs are available from the office.
Extra-Curricular Clubs
These vary depending on the time of year and availability of staff, but during the course of any one school year will usually cover activities such as Football, Tennis, Ocarina, Cookery, Gardening, Tag Rugby, Drumming, Recorder, Gymnastics, Chess, Cross Country, Choir, Netball, and Art.
Letters inviting children to join on a half termly basis go out just prior to the club starting. Numbers are usually limited to 20.
Educational Visits
The school arranges a variety of out of school visits to assist with the teaching of the curriculum in school. Transport for these visits will be by hired coach and parents are asked to make a contribution towards the cost of the visit. Charges for visits of this kind are by voluntary donation only, so where possible we keep charges to an absolute minimum. Without your support, these visits would not take place.
Supervision will be provided by school teaching and other staff, parent helpers and other adults, and will be determined for each outing taking account of what the children are doing, where they are going, how they are getting there and so on. Whatever other help is used, at least one member of the school's full-time teaching staff will be involved and will be in charge. Supervision will also comply with any standards set down by the LA.
Links with Local Churches
We have established close links with St Mary's Church and the Church at DCAE Cosford. The children are asked to perform at church services occasionally, and the vicar and Padres come into school each half term to talk in assembly.
Community Sports Links
We have close links with Albrighton Swimming Club, who use our swimming pool during the summer months. Albrighton Junior Football Club also use our football fields for training and match purposes. Many of our children are members of both the above clubs. We have changing facilities for both football and swimming.
Arrangements for Making Complaints about the Curriculum and Religious Worship
Under Section 29 of the Education Act 2002 the Local Authority has established arrangements, approved by the Secretary of State, for dealing with formal complaints about the curriculum or any related matter to the Governing Body, the LA or both. Parents and others who want to find out more about this matter should contact the Head in the first instance.
Other Complaints
For all other complaints or concerns, parents (and others) are encouraged to raise them initially with the Headteacher, who will be able to discuss them either there and then or at a mutually agreed time. Should it not be possible to resolve any complaint or concern satisfactorily in this way, the complaint should be put in writing and sent or given to the Headteacher. If you would like assistance in setting out your complaint, the school will, if asked, help you to do this. The school then promises to deal with your complaint. If you are not satisfied with the outcome of your complaint you can write to the Chair of Governors who can be contacted through the school address. Should you still not be satisfied and want to take the matter further, you will be told who else you can write to at that stage
We hope you have found the information in this booklet useful. If there is anything you would like to discuss further, please do not hesitate to contact us. If you would like to know more about us give us a call or come for a visit, we would love to see you.

Call The Green Cleaning Experts Today! (404) 281-6075
Our Company is Hiring!!
We are looking for part-time employees to join our growing team. Click on the "Employment" link above for more information.
Ready for some good news? Maintaining a clean home doesn't have to harm the environment!
With global warming on the rise, it's more important than ever to go green. While it may be tempting to reach for that heavy-duty cleaner (you know, the one full of dangerous chemicals?), you have other options.
Here are five ways to go green with your home cleaning routine.
1. Come up with a game plan
The best place to start is by doing a little planning. Planning ahead ensures that every room will get cleaned in an environmentally friendly manner. It also helps keep you organized!
You'll need to consider the following: What rooms need to be cleaned? Can you use an energy-efficient vacuum cleaner? Are there products in your cupboards that are harmful?
Go from room to room and write down a brainstorming list. This will help you come up with a solid plan ... and find some simple ways to start making changes.
2. Try DIY cleaning recipes
One essential way you can go green? Change the type of cleaner you use. There are organic cleaning products on the market right now, but they can be more expensive than your everyday, run-of-the-mill cleaning solution.
Fortunately, you can make your own cleaner at home. There are tons of easy DIY recipes to clean the entire house.. Find the ones you like best and get cleaning!
3. Aim for a no-waste clean
Have you ever heard of a no-waste clean? The premise is simple: after you've cleaned your house, you should have no waste left over. Just think about it: It's not very eco-friendly to reach for a green cleaner if you end up using an entire roll of paper towels as well!
Use washable cloths instead. This will get your home spotless without harming the environment.
4. Find creative solutions
It is possible to improve your home and be eco-friendly. The key is to find creative solutions. For instance, if you want to clean your wooden shutters or window treatment, try a mixture of lemon juice and olive oil.
This solution will polish the area and get rid of any built-up dirt or grease. For other solutions, simply take a look around your home. You're sure to find some creative (and green!) ways to change up your cleaning routine.
5. Reduce your clutter
If you want to cut down on your cleaning time and minimize the amount of junk in your home, just reduce the clutter. Many of us have things lying around that we will never use. Rather than be wasteful, donate them instead. This will allow others to use these items; plus, it will save you from cleaning them! Going green has never been so easy.
You can get the best surface cleaning tips and services by spending some time reviewing your options online. The Web is a great place to find the best way to clean your tricky surfaces and avoid making amateur mistakes when maintaining floors, counters, walls, and other areas where dirt can build up.
Below are four key tips for attacking those dirty surfaces in your home.
1. Study your surface
Look up your surface material online. This may sound like a strange way to begin, but it's a necessity when cleaning some of the more delicate surfaces around your home or business.
Wood will not respond well to the wrong cleaners; you may end up damaging the stain or protective coating. Carpets need to be cleaned with the proper agents or you risk staining them. Stone like marble can prove especially delicate and needs to be cleaned carefully to avoid damaging it.
By looking up your surface before you begin, you'll learn which cleaners and cleaning tools to use, which will save valuable time and avoid any damaging mistakes.
2. Find the right cleaning agent ... at a low price
When you've finished researching the material, it's time to buy your cleaning agent. Once again the Internet is a great place to start; you can hunt up a variety of great deals on chemicals and cleaners that will save you money.
If you prefer to save money and help out the environment, visit Seventh Generation or Simple Green to order more eco-friendly products in bulk. If you're tackling a smaller project and prefer to make your own cleaners, look up environmentally friendly recipes on natural cleaning blogs and sites. You can do a lot with a little vinegar, if you have a good recipe to work with.
3. Buy or lease handy power tools
For larger cleaning jobs, especially outdoor jobs, spend some time on the Web looking for tools you can buy or lease to make the job easier. A pressure washer can make cleaning patios and outside walls incredibly simple.
The same is true of carpet cleaners if you have a large indoor carpet to tackle. Polishers and similar tools can help with tiles and stone. Look up local cleaner rental companies in your area if you don't want to buy a cleaner outright.
4. For big projects, look for professional services
If you have a serious cleaning project, such as an entire store or office building, go online to find professional cleaning services and contact businesses to set a cleaning date. You can find out a lot about a cleaning service's quality and specialties by reviewing their website.
We all have a responsibility to do our part to take care of the planet. While that sounds like a huge undertaking, there are lots of small, easy changes you can make around the house that add up to make a big difference.
Protect the planet and your home with these ten green tips.
1. Start with the outside
The average lawn can be a huge water waster, but the cost of maintaining a green lawn doesn't have to occur at the expense of the environment or your wallet. Adopt eco-friendly lawn care techniques to keep the outside of your home looking great without the shame of wasted water.
2. Replace insulation
Save money on your heating bills by making sure the insulation in your home is plentiful and sealing up cracks in doors and windows.
3. Turn down the water heater
The water heater is one of those appliances that uses a lot of energy without your realizing it. If you turn down the temperature by 5-10 degrees, you'll save electricity without even noticing a change in your hot water.
4. Use the oven less
Use a microwave when you can, and make sure that the fridge isn't up against the oven. The added heat will force the fridge to do more work than it should.
5. Choose recycled materials
Whether you're replacing the curtains or the countertops, reusing building materials keeps trash out of landfills, and they work -- and look -- as good as new materials.
6. Shop at thrift stores and antique shops
The more you can buy used items for your home, the better. Plus, when you shop at second-hand stores you'll save money and wind up with something completely unique.
7. Use power strips
Putting a power strip at each outlet and plugging electronics into that makes it easier to turn things off all at once when they're not being used.
8. Shop green
Going green can start right in the grocery store by choosing green cleaning products, cold-water laundry soap, and even energy-saving light bulbs and appliances.
9. Keep your roof and gutters in good shape
It's easy to forget about the roof, but it's important to clean and maintain the gutters and the roof itself. If you're looking to replace your residential roofing, there are tons of green options for upgrades. A good local roofing company will tell you what your options are for green cleaning and replacing.
10. As always: reduce, reuse, and recycle
It might seem trivial, but recycling and composting actually do make a big difference, and once you get into the habit of sorting that stuff out, it's an easy practice.
We should keep it green, even if it's one home at a time! In order to protect the environment, starting at the home is an easy and direct way to get on the program.
There are so many ways to "go green" at home. If you really use your brain, you can find at least five ways to make your home more eco-friendly. Below are some ways to keep it green in your own castle.
1. Change your light bulbs
Instead of using the regular old incandescent bulbs that everyone has purchased for ages, opt for fluorescent bulbs instead. These bulbs use less energy and last much longer than the traditional version. It's an easy win-win solution.
2. Get proper insulation
Make sure your home is properly insulated and reduce potentially significant air leaks. This can be a fun and very easy process. If your home is not secured tightly, then warm air leaks out. This in turn makes heating your home more difficult and costly.
Controlling airflow to the outdoors can also serve you when you need to cool your home, as well. Repair all compromises to your house structure, and you'll save money as well as reduce the strain on the environment. This can be done easily with a caulking gun and other simple tools.
3. Give eco-friendly paints a try
When you're repainting a room, opt for eco-friendly paints. These products do not contain volatile organic compounds that can damage the environment and even pose a danger for humans when they release particles into the air. With the more eco-friendly paints, you can get others to join in on painting to improve the environment.
4. Improve your selection of home appliances
If you can, replace as many of your home appliances as possible with energy efficient ones. This equipment is different because it's ergonomically or eco-sensitively designed. The machines may be more expensive to start, but their efficiency will help them pay for themselves over time.
5. Proper air and heating maintenance
One of the overlooked areas for keeping a home eco-friendly is to maintain heating and cooling systems. This includes replacing or cleaning filters and various hoses attached to the appliances. With proper heating and cooling, your home can conserve astonishing amounts of energy and cut down on air pollution.
Keeping your home eco-friendly is a start to improving our world. If we just do our part at being green, then others will follow suit. Use these tips to get started changing the way you run your home.
There are many other ways to keep the home eco-friendly. Ask around and learn more ways to save energy and protect the environment. Keep it green, one home at a time!
Cleaning your house is necessary, but it's dangerous. Certain household cleansers contain chemicals that can have negative effects on your health if not handled with care.
Unfortunately, many people are unsure which cleansers are harmful, so they neglect to handle them properly. It might surprise you to learn that even some of the most common cleansers are hazardous.
Home maintenance items
Paint is highly dangerous if it's not cared for properly. For example, while it's not used in paint anymore, lead-based paints were in common use several decades ago. This paint is still present in many old buildings and homes, which means your family could become sick if the paint is present and not removed with care.
Household cleaning products
You know to be careful when handling bleach and ammonia, but you might not use correct precautions when doing so. While you might be exceptionally careful to avoid contact with your skin, you should consider wearing rubber gloves when handling bleach and ammonia.
Aside from rubber gloves, wearing a mask is also a good idea when handling these everyday household cleansers. The fumes from both can cause a number of health problems, and even death if you happen to inhale or ingest too much.
Health and beauty products
What might really surprise you is to realize that some of the products you use in the bathroom to make yourself even more gorgeous are potentially hazardous. For instance, that hairspray you use to ensure your hair looks great all day long is flammable.
Which means that if you don't handle hairspray with caution, it could catch on fire. This means keeping candles out of the bathroom. It also means either tying your hair back or wearing something over your hair in the kitchen. All it takes is a second too long of leaning over a hot burner when you're turning off the stove for the hairspray in your hair to ignite.
Always read product labels
Prior to handling dangerous products, always read the warnings on the labels. It can be exceptionally dangerous to overlook this precaution. Look for words such as toxic, flammable, poison, and combustible. If you see those warnings, use extra care. And as always, keep all chemicals and cleansers out of the reach of small children.
Taking every precaution to protect your family from the dangers of household products is vital. Even if you keep your chemicals out of reach and use them with all essential safety precautions, you should check to make sure your older home does not contain lead paint. You should also wear gloves when using cleansers.
With summer comes BBQs and fun in the sun ... and plenty of ketchup stains, spilled sodas, and dripping popsicles. If you've got some tough stains, don't despair. There are plenty of ways to get any kind of stain out of furniture, clothes, and carpets at home without emptying your wallet.
Here's three basic ways to get stains out the first time.
1. All-natural, at-home solutions
Depending on the stain, you might get lucky by using an at-home treatment on your laundry, carpet, or furniture. If you can clean the stain out right away, there are plenty of stain removers you can make at home at almost no cost.
A solution of white vinegar and water in a spray bottle works well. You can also try sprinkling baking soda onto a dirty carpet and letting it sit for about 20 minutes before vacuuming it up to remove both stains and odors.
Everyone is always looking for solutions to red-wine spills; try pouring white wine on the red-wine stain and then blot away all the liquid with a damp cloth. It might seem counter-intuitive, but white wine can loosen the spill of red and break it up so it can be wiped away.
2. Store-bought cleaning products
For tougher stains, you'll probably need more intense cleaners. Any store is likely to have an array of products to choose from, all boasting perfect performance and promising to be the solution you need, but it's hard to know which one will actually get the job done.
Often, the cheapest option won't work as well, but some products might work better on certain kinds of stains or on different surfaces than others. Checking the labels and even looking at reviews, as well as using the right sponge, brush, or towel will are most likely to identify a product that will do the job and not ruin your carpet, clothes, or furniture.
3. Professional carpet and upholstery cleaners
In some cases, you might have to bring in a professional carpet cleaner or rent the equipment and do it yourself.
While this might be overkill for a single stain, it's a great thing to do toward the end of the summer to get your house back to normal after a season of heavy use, or in a special circumstance like when you're getting ready to move out. Whatever the occasion, your carpet and furniture will look as close to brand-new as possible after a professional cleaning.
Maintaining a clean space doesn't mean you have to depend on the use of toxic substances. The majority of mainstream household cleaners contain ingredients that can be harmful to your health, and they can poison young children or pets that come in contact with these substances.
There are healthier, affordable alternatives to these common household cleaning agents on the market, and they will keep your family safe. Take a look at these four products you should avoid as you shop for cleaners.
1. Bleach
The fumes that rise from bleach can exacerbate existing respiratory problems, such as asthma. One of the main dangers of using bleach to clean things around the house is that it can be deadly when combined with other chemicals.
For example, a tiny bit of ammonia can produce nitrogen trichloride fumes, which are extremely poisonous. If you are trying to clean mold, try healthier alternatives, such as white vinegar, which can be quite effective at killing mold spores.
2. Oven cleaners
Many oven-cleaning products contain caustic ingredients, such as lye, that can cause severe chemical burns, corrode surfaces, and damage your respiratory system. The use of these products in the household should be severely limited. Safer alternatives, such as lemon juice and vinegar, can be used to clean an oven and combat bad oven odors.
3. Ammonia
Many general-purpose cleaners contain ammonia, a chemical with fumes that can lead to breathing difficulties.
This can progress to headaches, excessive coughing, and wheezing. If ammonia comes in contact with your skin, you can be severely burned. Many eco-friendly general-purpose cleaners can be found at grocery stores, and serve as an alternative to products that contain this extremely dangerous cleaning ingredient.
4. Spray deodorizers
Many stationary air fresheners and spray deodorizers can actually be a risk to children and pets, since they contain a chemical called formaldehyde. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has noted that this chemical may cause cancer in humans. Some people who are exposed to formaldehyde may experience dizziness, nausea, skin irritation, or difficulty breathing.
Popular cleaning agents create a minefield for home safety, because so many of the ingredients can be poisonous and cause illness. You should replace these items with eco-friendly alternatives or at the very least place them safely away from children and pets. If your child has special needs, make sure to invest in a caretaking service to make sure he or she is properly monitored at home. Increased supervision can go a long way toward making your home a safer place.
Everyone wants a house that looks sparkling and pristine, but not everyone has the time or energy to make it happen. Perhaps there's too much work, or housecleaning isn't really your thing. Fortunately, there are trained professionals out there who know what they're doing, and can make your house look good as new. But with so many companies offering their services, choosing one can be a challenge. Here are five essential things to consider when you hire a cleaning service.
1. Custom cleaning
Some companies specialize in the types of cleaning they perform: for example, one that does basic dusting and vacuuming might not shampoo carpets or do yard work. Other companies might do laundry as part of their service, and still others are willing to do windows. Before making a phone call, decide what precisely which types of cleaning you need done. This will help you narrow your choices and find a service that's right for you.
2. Research
When it comes to letting people into your home, research is your most powerful ally. Use the Internet and word of mouth to determine which housecleaning services in your region are the most reliable. Any record of complaints about shoddy work, missed appointments, or stolen property is a red flag that should eliminate some companies from your list immediately.
3. Insured cleaning
A trustworthy cleaning service offers insurance. You'll have to pay extra for it, but it guarantees that if your property goes missing or gets damaged during the cleaning, the company will pay for it. You will also want to make sure their employee's are covered under a worker's compensation policy. If they were to slip and fall in your home, you do not want to be liable for anything. A company (or private cleaner) that does not offer insurance or worker's comp leaves the responsibility at your feet, even when their staff is clearly to blame. Use this knowledge to decide which cleaning service to use, and which to avoid.
4. Background checks
Legitimate housecleaning companies will perform background checks on their employees. You are letting strangers into your home, after all, and you have a right to know how long these people have been employed by the company, whether they have criminal records, or even if they are legally allowed to work in the U.S. If you know the types of people employed by the cleaning service, it will make the decision process easier.
5. Green vs. Chemicals
Cleaning chemicals are potent and increase the toxicity levels of the air quality in your home. Understand what chemicals will be used during your cleaning and whether you are comfortable with them using them inside your home. A cleaning company that advertises that they are eco-friendly, will not attempt to cut corners by using toxic materials. Get as many details from them as you can about what they use to clean, and do some research on your own to find out if those substances are all right for you and your house. You can always trust that Welcome Home Maids never uses any chemicals that are harmful to you and your home. We make certain all of our products are 100% biodegradable and the manufacturers disclose all their ingredients.
I don't know anyone who enjoys cleaning, but it's a necessary chore for most of us. It's pretty easy; most of the job is just about putting things in their proper place, spraying some disinfectant cleaner, and wiping down with a sponge or paper towels.
Of course, there are specialty sprays for everything in the home: toilet bowl cleaners, automatic shower cleaners, all kinds of special add-ons for the dishwasher. There are super-concentrated "green" cleaners and pre-portioned laundry packs.
The point? Companies are making things as easy and convenient as possible to clean the house. However, a few jobs still need extra special effort to clean.
1. Inside the oven
There's nothing like taking a bubbling, yummy casserole coated in melted cheese out of the oven ... but the mess it leaves behind is not as appetizing. A lot of ovens have self-cleaners, but some of us are still in the Stone Age when it comes to oven cleaner.
A simple solution? Mix baking soda and a touch of diswashing liquid into a paste, smear it on the inside of the oven, wait 15 minutes, and wipe it out with warm water. Obviously, make sure that the oven is completely cool before touching the interior.
2. Floors
It seems like no matter what covers the floor, it's difficult to keep clean. Tile gets dirty grout and is always sticky, and carpet attracts dirt and pet hair like nobody's business. Use a squeegie to pull up pet hair from the carpet, and clean grout with the oven-cleaning mixture described above.
If you live in an area that's particularly muddy, designate a catch-all area near the door for muddy shoes and everything. Once or twice a year, get a shampooer from the local Lowe's or grocery store and deep clean those carpets.
This is good advice even if you live in an apartment. It will help keep dirt down and increase your chances of getting back the security deposit.
3. Ducts
Most of us change out our air filters, but imagine all the stuff that gets trapped in the ducts that circulate air around the house. Unless you are abnormally small and not claustrophic, these can be pretty difficult to clean.
One way to circumvent this problem is to invest in ductless heating pumps. Not only are they easier to clean, they are more environmentally friendly. This might not be an option if you're renting, but for those lucky enough to own their own homes, it's definitely an option to consider.

We are active in looking for ways to apply psychology to help address the needs of schools, children and parents. We are continuing to develop innovative ways of working with our client groups that will have the greatest impact on achievement for all children. In a recent OFSTED report on Bristol LEA the psychology service was described as being 'held – more... in high regard by most schools' . Consistently, schools rate our services as above average in comparison with other LEAs who have been part of the inspection process.
Since September 1998, the service has adopted a Consultation framework approach for delivery of its service to schools. This has proved highly successful and has been well received by schools, and by parents, as it provides increased opportunities for the psychologist to make a difference to children and schools.
To facilitate effective working practices each school is provided with a named psychologist and an allocation of visits, in proportion to need, based on proxy indicators such as free school meals, the number of highly resourced statements as well as the number of pupils on roll. During regular visits, the psychologist is able to offer advice on how best to overcome difficulties and also work to help prevent difficulties arising in the first place. The agenda for the psychologist's visit is jointly determined with the school and will include joint prioritising about the use of allocated time.
In Bristol the EPS continues to play a significant role in identifying and assessing children and young people with special educational needs. The service has a crucial role to play in evaluating the strategies that have been implemented by schools, and in supporting the inclusion of children with increasingly complex needs within mainstream schools.
Importantly, the Bristol Psychology Service is also widely involved in approaches that are intended to have an impact at a more systemic or wider level than individual casework. We are exploring developments in the areas of organisational and occupational psychology that can be applied to 'schools as organisations'. Every psychologist is encouraged to contribute to these developments.
Through a generous time allocation to the Educational Development Plan the service is currently working in areas such as:
Improving behaviour in secondary schools
Emotional literacy
Motivation ('You can do it!')
Gifted and talented pupils
Thinking skills
Memory research and strategies
The literacy hour and SEN
Research projects , for example on Phonographix, attendance, multiagency working
The service also plays an important role in supporting schools in difficulties. The service has taken a lead on re-engineering the LEA's statutory assessment process, and the introduction of a school-based special needs assessment process (SSENA). This has resulted in a reduction in statutory assessments and an increase in the availability of psychologists to problem-solve alongside parents and schools. We have also had a significant role in developing the LEA's early years strategy.
The service is strongly committed to delivering a high quality, effective and efficient service to schools. We have introduced quality and standards systems for monitoring and improving our work: we regularly gather feedback on the quality of our consultations, the quality of our advice for statutory assessments, and other key indicators.
The service is also committed to the professional development of its staff through a programme of individual training and development reviews and has introduced significant whole service developments, via a substantial investment in whole service training.
The service has established close links with the University of Bristol Educational Psychology training course. – less – More from ZoomInfo »

I applied online. The process took 5 days – interviewed at PizzaExpress in October 2014.Interview Details
Pretty Simple and straight forward. I applied online through their website. Got a call from the store manager a couple of days later asking a few general questions about previous experience being a waiter. Got invited in for a face to face interview a few days after that and met with the manager for a pretty informal chat about what I thought of pizzaExpress as a company, what I would do if a customer was being rude and a time when I worked as a team.Interview Questions

Pace Cares
Last year, the Pace Community joined together to raise funds and volunteer after Superstorm Sandy. This month, join Pforzheimer, CCAR, and OMA in aiding in the recovery of those affected by Typhoon Haiyan.
Last year, in the wake of Superstorm Sandy, Pace University formed the Pace Cares Initiative, mobilized volunteer efforts, collected more than 2,000 items of donated food, clothing, personal care items, and cleaning supplies in one day, and established a fund to provide financial assistance to Pace students affected by the storm.
As Typhoon Haiyan wreaked havoc on the Philippines, killing more than 2,000 people and displacing more than half a million, the Pace Community is working together to collection donations.
The Pforzheimer Honors College, the Center for Community Action and Research, and the Office of Multicultural Affairs (OMA) are collaborating to provide and aid and relief to the survivors of Typhoon Haiyan.
The Honors College, in conjunction with the Center for Community Action and Research, is hosting information tables at One Pace Plaza, Monday, November 18–Thursday, November 21.
Honors College students will inform the Pace Community on how to text donations to establish on-the-ground relief organizations working in the Philippines. Fact sheets, developed by the Center for Community Action and Research, will also be available with the names of additional organizations that are accepting monetary donations.
The Office of Multicultural Affairs is accepting donations of the following items until Monday, December 2:
- Tents
- Ground Tarps/Plastic Sheeting
- Blankets
- Feminine hygiene products
- First aid products
- Aspirin and other pain-relief medications
- Toiletries
- Towels
- Batteries
- Flashlights
- Water Purification Tablets
- Contractor-Strength Trash Bags
Donations may be dropped of at the Office of Multicultural Affairs, 41 Park Row, 9th floor Reception Area.

Huge shopping center with a lot of entertainment and the worst parking. There are a lot of restaurants in the area also. There are not so many stores to choose from but there are stores you won't find in other malls around DC. I would say it's the nearest outlet center to DC. GREAT PLACE :)
