Yes, we are men, and we love our families! That's why it's so important for us to find a work/life balance.
Running a business, especially a clothing business, is a huge production. It feels great to have work that's entirely your own, to have your own set of rules, your own schedule, and so on. So much work goes into creating and running your own business that it's almost like having your own child, and, in fact, most people akin it to such. But what if you already have children? They say it takes a village to raise a child. So how do you balance all this work? How do you run a clothing business and run a family? How do you give adequate time to both? It's not impossible. Read on for tips on how to run a clothing business and a family—and to rock both.
Visit this site for more info about tools to get your business off the ground.
If you have children or other family members you need to take care of, and a business, your time is limited. It's important to make a daily and weekly plan. You have to know how much you can handle and when you'll have time to handle it. If you have kids, you generally have a predictable schedule Monday through Friday. For example, you might drop your kids off at school at 8:00AM and pick them up at 2:30PM. The time while they are at school is your biggest chunk of free time. That's the time you should use to review your stock, update your website, send out emails, package your merchandise, and so on.
These tips are especially helpful if you're running an embroidery business. We love the equipment from avance-emb because it helps us get all kinds of work done. Keep reading for more advice.
Keep a tablet or other smart-device with you on which you can do work while you wait at your child's baseball or other sport practice. Don't bring the tablet to important games, however—you want your child to know that you're fully supporting them and that your work is not more important than they are (after all, family comes first). But remember to have realistic expectations of what you can and can't do.
Don't beat yourself over the head if you didn't get around to doing a few things on one day—you can do it the next. For example, take solace in the fact that you managed to put hot dinner on the table, even if you didn't yet get around to doing the laundry or mowing the lawn.
On the subject of realistic expectations, you should be realistic about your time. You might consider hiring a personal assistant to help you with your business. You could put up ads and find a local personal assistant. Or you could outsource assistant work to someone abroad. You can hire international personal assistants through freelance websites at a fraction of the price you'd have to pay for a face-to-face one, and, often, they do just as good work.
But the most important thing is to just organize your day. Keep a notebook on which you write a schedule. Plan, plan, plan! Set aside time for your family, set aside time for your work. But also be sure to schedule in wiggle room and "nothing" time to avoid making your life feel too strict.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Save-the-Date Magnets
Excellent product! I ordered these magnets for my Save-the-Dates for my fiance and I's upcoming wedding and we just love them! They were made exactly to order and the quality is excellent. It came with foil-lined envelopes that fit the magnets. I with I had purchase the optional cards that you can stick the magnets on when mailing them out. Instead I'll just be sticking the magnets into the envelopes as is (not attached to anything) - which is totally okay too. Were I to order them again though, I definitely would have spent the extra money for the cards to put them on just for presentation's sake. This will work too though. Overall, the product is awesome and we're really happy with how they turned out!
Save the Date Magnet
So many great designs to choose from and nice prices! I had a little trouble figuring out how to personalize the magnet initially but overall everything turned out great!
I was very happy with my purchase! Excellent quality and very fast delivery.
I would recommend this business to anyone. They were very professional and the product is of high quality !
Great Product For the Price!
I love them! They came out exactly how I designed them. Best prices out of everywhere I looked. Light thin magnets fit perfect in the little envelopes that are included with them. Perfect save the dates!
Great Product! Great Experience
This magnet was great. I loved being able to order a sample and then deduct that price from my large order. The magnets are so classy and perfect! I love the box they came in and look forward to ordering from MagnetStreet again!

Green Surprise
by Ivette Perfecto, Catherine Badgley | June 2010
The bounty of a small plot is not so small.
Can small-scale organic farms feed the world? Most people would agree that diverse family farms practicing sustainable agriculture are better—better for the environment, better for society—than large, pesticide-drenched monocultures that provide few jobs, destroy biodiversity, and contaminate the environment. Many would be concerned, however, that those small, sustainable family farmers might not be able to produce enough to feed the world.

Roll over the map to access regions and towns
Selected: Krn
One can start the way to Krn already in the valley, but it is nicer to take advantage of the road that leads to the Kuhinja mountain pasture through villages exposed to the sun on the slope of the mighty mountain. From the renovated mountain hut you can follow the road to Leskovce mountain pasture and ascend the path into an interesting valley surrounded on the left with the coloured walls of Rdeči rob (the Red Ridge). When the valley turns around Maselnik, behind a small dip one can see the little Lužnica Lake, which brings the stone valley to life. Through it we can reach the saddle under Batognica.
The path leading across the summit, which has had its image entirely changed during the last century due to numerous grenades, mining, trench digging and caverns at the Isonzo front, is the most beautiful. We descend to Krn notch along the carved out stairs and from there lies Krn (2244 m) with a shelter immediately below the peak like on the palm of the hand.
The descent from the viewing peak is much shorter, as the path along the grassy south slope leads us to the famous Kuhinja alpine pasture.

After an extended spring training that included striking out three-time all-star New York Yankee outfielder Curtis Granderson, former
"I'm looking forward to it. I feel like it'll be a good opening test for me,"
Davis, who turned 20 less than two months ago, had been in Tampa pretty much since the middle of February for extended spring training before being assigned to the New York-Penn League, whose season runs into early September.
During his time in
"I had a very good extended spring training," he said. "Our main focus was the curve ball. … That came a long way toward the end…, and my velocity went up a little bit. My command of my fastball was good, change-up was good.
"It was just another way of learning and getting me ready to the point that I'm at now. So I'm thankful for them working with me down there and getting me ready, and now I can just hit the ground running up here."
Davis, who will wear No. 52 and is listed on the
"I would be anywhere from 89 to 91, 92," he said. "This year I'm able to sit comfortable 92, 94. I've hit 95 a couple times. But we've been working on some mechanical stuff and we're hoping that soon I'll be able to sit (93) to (95) or something like that."
Granderson had a single in his first at-bat before popping out in his third. In between,
"That was a pretty good experience. It was fun. He's a great guy,"
And so,
But given his age and that he pitched only 17 innings in the GCL last year because of an illness, it's probably no surprise that
"My ultimate goal this year was at some point to be in
The Yankees are known for a relative conservative approach with their minor-league prospects, especially players right out of high school.
"I may be here all year. I'm not sure what may happen. It all just depends on performance and (getting) the opportunity," he said. "While it would be nice to be in
"So I've just got to take what I'm given, make the best of it and try and go out there and get some wins for us."
Still, he said, it is hard being patient sometimes.
"It's tough. Being a younger guy, you want to keep progressing, you want to face that tougher competition so you can elevate your game to that level," he said. "But there's some good baseball up here and my time will come and I know that.
"I'm sure they know that as well. They've had really good success with high school guys, bringing them up. So I just have to trust in the plan that they give me and try to ride that out the best that I can."
"I mean, I want to stay out there for nine, but it's early in the season and first start," he said, adding a more realistic goal is five strong innings. "And set us up for a win. It'd be a big win, and I know the guys are ready to get out there."
As is
"Last year it was a lot of ups and downs. It was a learning experience to say the least, just learning how to be a professional first off and then taking care of my body, and I've done a better job of that, a lot better job," he said.
"I'm definitely ready to get out there. Anyone that knows me knows that I want the ball whenever I can get it. I want it every day. But I'm ready to get out there Thursday. I don't really feel anxious or feel like I have anything to prove."
"There's a lot more college guys up here. So they have a different approach at the plate. They just have a better overall gameplan. They've obviously played three or four years of college baseball against better competition rather than guys coming right out of right high school," he said.
"So it's a little different. The game's a little bit faster, but you've just got to try and take it a pitch at a time and adjust to the necessary things that you feel like you need to adjust to and the things you feel like you need to keep the same just keep coasting with it.
"That's something I'm working on right now. It's just a growing phase right now, just getting used to it and getting used to be in front of 7,000, 8,000 people a night. … But it's been going well. I feel like I'm mentally and physically ready for tomorrow night. I've just got to go out there and continue what I've been doing all year."

OK, let me preface this by saying I'm actually encouraged by how easily Rivers gets around the court with his handle, as well as his improved passing, and I believe his work ethic is going to make him a solid player.
We all know his biggest offensive challenge is he's not a good shooter yet. But does it bother anyone else that he shoots with his elbow out? How many good shooters shoot like that? Isn't he limited in how much he can develop as a shooter unless he corrects that?
It is a symptom of playing so much isolation basketball and having to create for himself- usually using the dribble to create his momentum for the shot. LeBron had this tendency his first few years for the exact same reason. Eventually he will become more comfortable playing off the ball, spotting up, etc and he will learn to create his momentum in other ways, but for right now it is bad. And the people who actually studied his game knew this was the weakness coming in- not the ball hog, diva junk Chad Ford made up.
Check this out
And if you read that paragraph, it says that Rivers was horrible at finishing when he first got to Duke, but then figured it out and made adjustments
These are MAJOR transitions- one from high school to the ACC, then from the ACC to the NBA. To think that a guy could just keep doing what he is doing well when the competition level changes so drastically without an adjustment period is naive.
Rivers was horrible at Duke in November and December, but he kept working, watching film, etc. and adjusted because this kid refuses to give up no matter the odds. In the second half of his freshman season, he was elite when it came to finishing at the rim.
The adjustment period might take twice as long in the NBA, but the kid's track record shows that he keeps working until he gets it right. I don't see why the NBA will be any different
And here is a post from the same writer earlier that here. Problems seem very familiar to what we are seeing now, don't they? But Rivers put in the work and figured it out. History repeats itself:
Someone just brought up Austin Rivers in Hollinger's chat.
Dan (CA)
I just looked at Austin Rivers stats so far this year... GAAAAAAAAHHHHHH NOOOOO. What is going on with him?
John Hollinger (12:27 PM)
My big worries about Rivers were that he didn't have the athleticism to cut it in the NBA as a slasher, and that he wasn't a good enough shooter to make up for it. That seems to be the case so far. But that said, keep in mind that there's a long history in this league of rookie guards getting absolutely slaughtered, before emerging in year 2 as a real basketball player.
Clearly Hollinger isn't watching actual games because Rivers isn't having issues getting to the rim. Its absorbing contact and finishing that's his problems.
And looking at the vid they had on his finishing, he was going left and finishing with his left. I really have to wonder if those wraps on his fingers are really holding him back.

Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
Once he learns how to attack with more control and the game starts to slow down for him, he will be immensely more productive. That still doesn't fix his shot though.
He needs to play like he does in 2k13 where he can do it all.
I've been impressed with Rivers as a slasher, but his finishing is weak right now. And that may be because...Rivers is weak right now. Watching him out there he really looks like a kid playing with grown men. I saw on his scouting report that Rivers only managed one rep in the bench press at the NBA combine (weight=185 pds--note: Durant couldn't even do one rep coming out, but then he's 6'9"). I've said before, I think Rivers came out a year early and this season is one to grow on. He should come off the bench and spend some time at both point and 2-guard against reserves to help get his game in shape and give him time to grow into the league. Honestly, if we had our own D-league team like some franchises, I wouldn't be opposed to giving him a stint down there to help him adjust to the pro game. The thing that's bothered me the past few games is he is not looking to take his jump shot. Last night there were a couple of times he was literally left alone with the ball at the 3-point line and he hesitated before trying to penetrate. He's got to have the green light to hoist that shot.
EGO being out is hampering him in more ways than one. Rivers has no one to emulate in practice at his position and style of play. EGO could be showing him how it's done day in and day out, but the most hurt sore kneee in the history of mankind can't let that happen.
I didn't expect Rivers to be a Day 1 Star but i think in a year or two he'll be stronger, more experienced and a better player overall
New Orleans Pelicans-Seattle Seahawks-Atlanta Braves-Anaheim Ducks
RIP HunnyB
This fits HunnyB/FlyGirl so well- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyzTiSEfM00
Though Rivers is shooting 28.3 percent from the field and averaging 6.1 points after 16 games, Hornets Coach Monty Williams said he has no plans of limiting his minutes.
"What I'm not going to do is bury him on the bench because he's out there trying to do the right thing for the team,'' Williams said. "I think that would hurt him more than anything. I'm going play him through his mistakes and it's going to help our program two or three years from now.''
Sounds like special treatment. Williams has no problems pulling Miller.
Two or three years from now? Who can wait that long? We need to win now! Let's give up on the guy and move on already, I mean it has been almost 20 games already. Geesh
(btw nice job on wwl the other night. way to represent)
When and if all the talent gets on the floor, you'll see everybody's game raised a notch. Even the coaching.
Just wait for Rivers 2k14 "a Rivers runs through it". Beast

Examples of these decorative compositions of 'standard issue' weapons arranged on the walls can still be seen at Windsor Castle and Hampton Court. George IV added to the collection, choosing pieces for their decorative merit and curiosity (including the German 18th-century gun that fires heart-shaped bullets on display at Windsor). Among the highlights of the collection at Windsor is the last suit of armour made at Greenwich for Henry VIII in around 1540. Other parts of the Collection are on long-term loan to the Royal Armouries at Leeds.

Hi everybody,
I have a wah enclosure and I'm thinking about building this:
Now, I would like to combine a wah & a volume pedal in the same enclosure. Is there a way to do it? I would like to have the volume pedal active at all times and just switch between volume and wah. When bypasing the wah I would like to switch back to volume control.
Thanks for all input in advance.

That's a good question.
Jeremy, would it be easiest for everyone to send you the money thru paypal as a gift. Or should we give all the money to one person who you can meet up with at some point in the future, or how do you want to handle this.
The Condors are fairly spread out. Steve, Martin, James, Sammy and I all took 10 to sell. I know Martin and I are both out and I'm sure the others have sold some if not all of them. Derby City Discs is also selling them and Johnny NoPants was kind enough to get a bunch from Jeremy today.

I wish I had some to sell in Evansville people because people would eat them up and the leagues here are great.
T-Bone has a point. I bet we could sell a handful pretty fast.
Yes...just Paypal me a gift at guyskankrye -at- yahoo.com
"...a glass can only spill what it contains..."
I sold all Mine as well Jeremy I can collect the money and bring it with me to tuesday leagues if you like.
Jeremy, I know we're going through Condors pretty fast. Do have have enough to send some to Evansville or are they almost gone? Not sure how we'll get them there but that can be worked out.
Where we have strong emotions, we're liable to fool ourselves. Carl Sagan
"...a glass can only spill what it contains..."
Well Adam and Jeremy I'm in Louisville all the time and paying up front would be a pain and since no one else done that it always seems like you guys don't trust me. I am a member here and I'm just trying to help and have no reason to try and get over on anyone because people who know me know I'm not like that. Thanks

text: The Written Simulation…Gone With the Wind That's right…the written simulation has retired. It has left the building. Cashed out. However you want to say it, beginning May 1st, the ACE Personal Trainer Certification Exam will consist solely of a 3-hour exam with 150 multiple-choice questions. (Note: if you are taking the GFI, LWMC, or AHFS certification exam, then you can skip this post as the information only applies to those candidates taking the Personal Trainer certification exam) But what does that mean? Well, if you are currently studying for your personal trainer certification exam and have been preparing yourself to take the written simulation (doing sample problems, figuring out the technical approach etc.) then you can relax – that part of the exam no longer exists. If you are a candidate who is just starting to study for the personal trainer certification exam and have never heard of the written simulation…you can quit reading and use this time as a study break instead! So why did we make this change? The exam's multiple-choice questions were/are designed to test your ability to apply knowledge to determine the most appropriate course of action in a variety of personal training scenarios. We wanted to see if you knew what to do with a client, why you do it, and if it is a good decision. The written simulation questions were developed to test your ability to apply what you have learned. I usually referred to them as your practical application section. With the written simulation you would use bits of information you'd learned to answer questions that related to the real life give and take of a client. When ACE discovered was that the 150 multiple-choice questions on the certification exam already test your ability to apply your knowledge in practical situations. Not to mention that the technical aspect of taking the written simulation was challenging for both candidates and ACE. So… we decided that the written simulation problems were no longer necessary. But what if you still have a written simulation sample problem? (One of those booklets that come wrapped in plastic with a highlighter type marker.) Should you throw it away now? Of course not! The written simulation sample problems are a great way to practice your understanding of the material. Remember how I always talk about comprehending the material rather than just memorizing it? You can use your written simulation sample problem to do just that. But what if you never got a written simulation sample problem? Should you call in for one now? Nope. These are now discontinued items, meaning no longer available. But don't worry, there are plenty of opportunities for practice questions. Questions? Confusion or concern? Just give us a call and speak with one of our Education Consultants at 1-888-825-3636 x782.

To many, the thought of seeing a handbell choir might induce a yawn and a flimsy excuse. Of the instruments out there, there are so many — the bassoon or viola for example — that are more exciting than the lowly handbell.
But, in the hands of the Raleigh Ringers, handbell playing has been taken to a new level. They are no average church handbell choir, they are virtuosi who have mastered this most humble instrument and they are bringing their renowned playing to LaGrange.
The group, from Raleigh, N.C., consists of 17 ringers who use more than 360 different bells and bell-related instruments in their concerts.
The ensemble performs a range of music from classical to popular music. One of their signature pieces, an arrangement of Rimsky-Korskov's "Flight of the Bumblebee," is masterfully played but also incorporates a sense of humor. Players don bumblebee-striped gloves and make use of fly swatters during their performance.
The group was founded 23 years ago by conductor David M. Harris. After directing the handbell choir at a local church, Harris wanted a group with a more expansive repertoire and a performing season. Over the last two decades the group has gained recognition as one of the finest handbell choirs in the world.
Bells have been in use for millennia. In the western world they have usually marked the sacred, ringing out from church steeples to indicate time or in peals to mark special events. Handbells were used more as a signal rather than an instrument, perhaps being rung by a town crier or to say that a meal is being served.
The handbell as an instrument dates only to the early 18th century and were only introduced to America just after the turn of the 20th century. Over time, they've become popular in churches, though they are rarely seen in secular settings.
While playing a handbell is easy — bells are usually held to the chest and is swung outwards to produce a tone then dampened on the chest — the real challenges in handbell playing come from playing a series of fast running notes or playing multiple bells at once.
There are also a number of ways that the bells can be played, thus producing different tones. Bells can be played with mallets or struck on a foam covered tables with both effects rendering a staccato note. Or perhaps a tone may be sustained by striking a hanging bell.
The Raleigh Ringers make use of all of these techniques plus they use a variety of different types of handbells that adds variety to their sound.
North Carolina music critic John Lambert said in one of his reviews, "the virtuosity and musicianship of The Raleigh Ringers is exceptional by any standard."

On my test system, I'll use DVDs to create my system image
In this edition of the Windows Desktop Report, I'll use my new system to show you how to prepare and configure your Windows 7 system to dual-boot Windows 8. While I'll be using the Windows 8 Release Preview for this article, I've heard that the procedure should be very similar with the actual release version. Even so, I'll revisit this topic in the near future once Windows 8 is available to the general public.
This slideshow is also available in the blog format in the Windows and Office Blog.
For this article, I'm going to assume that you have already visited the Windows 8 Release Preview site and followed Microsoft's instructions for downloading and converting the ISO file to a DVD in Windows 7. If you haven't, you should do so before you get started with this article. The process is pretty straightforward and Microsoft has documented the steps you need to follow.
Creating a System Image
The first thing that you'll want to do is create a System Image from within Windows 7's Backup and Restore. When you do, you'll end up with a complete image of your hard disk. That way, if anything out of the ordinary were to occur as you follow the steps for creating a dual-boot system, you will be able to return to your current configuration. Furthermore, I recommend that you also create a separate backup of your data. Maybe just make copies of all your data files on CD/DVD or on an external hard disk. While it may sound like overkill, having an extra backup will give you peace of mind.
To create a system image, you'll need to have a CD-RW/DVD-RW drive, an external hard disk, or access to a network drive. To access Backup and Restore, click the Start button, type Backup in the Search box, and press [Enter] when Backup and Restore appears in the result pane.
Once you have Backup and Restore up, select the Create a System Image option and choose your backup location. As you can see, I used a DVD-RW drive on my system.
Full Bio
Greg Shultz is a freelance Technical Writer. Previously, he has worked as Documentation Specialist in the software industry, a Technical Support Specialist in educational industry, and a Technical Journalist in the computer publishing industry.
Hi, I followed all this procedure, and have installed Windows 8 and so I have a dual boot capability. I can use Wireless in Windows 7 but find I cannot activate my Windows 8 OS, neither can I set up a wireless connection in Windows 8. If I plug in the Ethernet cable I can get on the web withe the windows 8 setup. Any ideas? John
I just got my son a pretty fast desktop for gaming and Windows 8. Now it seems Windows 8 won't run some of this games properly. The desktop comes with a SSD with the OS and a separate Data disk. Can I use the process above to install Windows 7 as the Secondary boot option? Does it matter that we are going backwards on the version? Your help is highly appreciated!
I had only Windows 8 Release Preview on my laptop and decided to create a double boot. I restored my Windows 7 backup, reduced the space on the C; Partition and reinstalled Windows 8. Worked like a charm and now I can demonstrated the Windows 8 dual boot screen and the additional boot options.
I like Greg, he has interesting stuff to spill. I hate this stupid slideshows !!! The first thing I do is search if there is a way around them; if not probably my interest is already gone.
And a safe way to introduce yourself to Win8. From this point, what would you do if you eventually wanted to get rid of the dual boot setup and go w/ Win8 exclusively? Would you migrate everything (i.e. install all your apps and copy all your files/settings) from the Win7 partition and get rid of it altogether? Or, would you end up installing Win8 as an upgrade to the Win7 partition and then remove the Win8 volume? In either scenario, how would the dual boot option be removed from the boot screen?
Displeased w/ Slideshows as a waste of my and your time, I goggled the topic and found more readable links to the same subject. Iâll continue to receive TechRepublic email and if the topic Iâm interested in is not in the Blog format there is always a search engine available. Someone is not listening to the many complaints about the format. This is my 2nd and giving up on the issue.
50 GB might be usful if the OS + Office doesn't use all that space.
The memo is loud and clear. 'No Slide Shows' without a clear, easy-to-find link to a 'view-as-one-page' option. What part of the do you not understand? And no more of this 'My Editor made me do it.' excuse.
...slideshow or blog, it's a very informative article explaing a process that many will want to do. As we know, every installation always has its own challenges.so an overview of a process is a great help. Thanks.
My sincere apologies to Greg Shultz. If I had bothered to read more carefully I would have noticed that it is very plainly offered as a blog right at the beginning. Nothing like making myself look foolish in a public forum. Maybe I should run for Congress?
I wholeheartedly agree with PeterM42. This should be in a different format than a slideshow.
What is the point of having something like this in a slideshow? Yes, put the slides in a blog with instructions, but the slideshow on it's own is pretty USELESS
Your first heading states "Perquisite", which actually means "a privilege, gain, or profit incidental to regular salary or wages; especially : one expected or promised" (from merriam-webster.com). I'm fairly sure the word you meant was Prerequisite.
I thought Windows 8 includes a "secure boot" by default, not allowing to install a dual boot operating system.
I believe this install will only work with an MBR formatted drive. If you are using GPT you'll need to install the OS on an unallocated partition.
I have Windows XP Pro and I did all of the above. There is no Shrink Volume Command.
Just for in case someone runs into the same problem I had, if available shrink space is insufficient, try doing a Defrag first.
...glad to hear you find my articles valuable! But, keep in mind that in all but 5 cases, every technical topic slideshow with my byline is based on a stand-alone article. In other words, you can find both a traditional article and a slideshow. That is the case here. The opening paragraph of the slideshow contains a link to the article: This slideshow is also available in the blog format in the Windows and Office Blog. http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/window-on-windows/dual-boot-windows-7-and-windows-8/6513 ...and the opening paragraph of the article contains a link to the slideshow: This blog post is also available in the Slideshow format in a TechRepublic Photo Gallery. http://www.techrepublic.com/photos/slideshow-create-a-dual-boot-machine-for-windows-8/6380349 Not everyone likes a slideshow and not everyone likes an article, so having both allows folks in each camp to view the format they like better. When Mark (my TR Editor) and I came up with the Slideshow Tips idea back in May, we were looking for a way to expand the slideshow concept and thought that having more targeted information available only in the slideshow format would be a good thing. But, from the negative feedback we received, apparently that is not always going to be the case. However, I must point out that there was a lot of positive feedback as well as the fact that those slideshows were extremely popular--literally thousands of TR readers visited them. Going forward Mark and I have decided to discontinue the Slideshow Tips ONLY format. Any tips designed primarly for a Slideshow format will ALSO have a separate article available. Just for the record, here is a list of the 5 Slideshow Tips that I have produced for TechRepublic that did NOT provide a separate blog post: 7 Tips for Using System Information http://www.techrepublic.com/photos/7-tips-for-using-system-information/6378246 7 Time Saving File Management Tips http://www.techrepublic.com/photos/7-time-saving-file-management-tips/6375786 Windows 7 Files That Contain Icons http://www.techrepublic.com/photos/windows-7-files-that-contain-icons/6365340 7 ways to save time with event viewer http://www.techrepublic.com/photos/7-ways-to-save-time-with-event-viewer/6364804 Seven Ways to Open Windows Task Manager http://www.techrepublic.com/photos/seven-ways-to-open-windows-task-manager/6362149
...a logical next step that I will cover in more detail once Windows 8 is actually released. I wrote a similar article for Windows XP/Windows 7 and plan on revising the technique for Windows 7 Windows 8.
If you took the same amount of time you took to search for an article version as you did to read, you'd have seen it.
...Windows 8 used 15.3 GB and left 34.6 GB of available space. But, it is importatnt to keep in mind that I choose 50GB purely for illustrative purposes. Also keep in mind that in Windows 7's Disk Manager you can also extend a partition. So If you needed more space for installing other apps in Windows 8, you can always shrink the Windows 7 partition again and then extend the Windows 8 partition into the newly created free space.
The link to the blog version link is right there in the description - I'm not sure how we can make it any simpler.
You can view it either way.
Yes, that was a typo - it has been corrected.
...from a Windows 7 perspective. Unfortunately, the Windows XP version of Disk Management does not have a Shrink Volume capability. If you are using Windows XP and need to repartition your existing drive, you will need to use something like EaseUS Partition Master Home Edition: http://download.cnet.com/EaseUS-Partition-Master-Home-Edition/3000-2248_4-10863346.html

Positive reinforcement, positive reinforcement, positive reinforcement. Never scold your pup if you happen to find an accident on the floor. This will only make the pup fearful of going to the bathroom around you/where you can see. So he/she will start to hide to use the potty, instead of telling you that he/she has to go. First and fore-most, if the pup has had an accident in the house, get an enzyme cleaner, such as Nature's Miricle and clean your floors with it. This will give your pup a clean slate as it will take all the smell of potty from the floor. Normal cleaner's you get from Wal-Mart will not work. Next, have your puppy in a crate, or leashed to you at all times. Do not allow your pup to wander through the home un-supervised.12/2/2014 10:41:01 PM
Get a kitchen timer and set it to go off every 2 hours. When the beeper goes off, take your pup outside to potty. Praise him/her with treats and affection when he/she goes potty outside. If he/she doesn't, bring him/her back inside and wait 20 minutes and repeat. If you are at work through the day, have him/her either outside in a secure area (kennel) or have him/her in a crate inside. But make sure there is someone to let your pup out to potty every 4 hours. Limit the amount of water your pup has before bed-time, such as 2-3 hours before bed. Good luck!12/2/2014 10:41:12 PM
I have had two Brussels Griffon. I have not had a problem with either one. In two days they were both trained w/ their doggy doors to the enclosed yard. They are very smart. Like children you have to be consistent. Once you have one, you'll never get another breed. No shedding, listens well. The best ever.
I have 3 wonderful Brussells. All trained quickly and are the biggest joys in our lives. Our little female is just smitten with my husband and our males are the apple of my eye. Would not trade them for the world.4/15/2015 12:51:46 PM
I think it's more the human that needs 'training' than the dog! Just remember the puppy/dog is just like a child, when they gotta go, they gotta go! You can't 'program' a dog to potty when it's convenient for YOU! - if you wouldn't do it to your child (leave in a crate/playpen for hours on end, act like they are a robot or toy that can be turned off and on when it's convenient for you to get them out and play/interact with them) - Please don't get a dog!5/10/2015 5:10:54 PM

Brussels Griffons although small require daily exercise. A daily walk for a mile or more will keep your dog happy. A happy dog is much more likely to cooperate with you. Obedience classes are also fun for you Griffon. I have 5 little stubborn men but classes taught me a lot about their individual personalities. 5/24/2013 2:39:09 PM
Griff's are known as the Velcro dogs, because the want to live that way. Attached to you. Not a good choice if you're away for hours because separation anxiety doesn't begin to cover it! They love that much! They make great service dogs, by the way!5/15/2014 4:12:39 PM
Yes, the Brussels Griffon is considered a hypoallergenic breed of dog.7/9/2014 10:16:13 PM
My Brussels Griffon never shed, I've had two. Wonderful little guys4/10/2015 6:16:59 PM

She was probably a kennel raised puppy on wire where she had no consequences for her potty. Consistency. Keep going with the crating and doggy doors help a lot with this breed too. Straight from the crate to outside for as long as it takes to do her business (both). This breed takes an incredible amount of time to break. Good luck2/15/2013 8:44:25 PM
Typically 2 - 5 is a normal litter size.2/15/2013 8:44:51 PM
I firmly believe in crate training Griffs. They just make better dogs. Also at 1 year old your griff is just now probably potty trained. This breed takes forever but they DO train. Crate training helps a lot.1/19/2013 9:23:36 PM
No more than any breed. The more you have them around a bunch of dogs the greater the chance. Boarding, high volume grooming salons and dog parks all increase your chance of contracting kennel cough.1/19/2013 9:24:36 PM

no it wont hurt your dog.. (:11/9/2012 11:43:45 AM
I have 2 5yr old male Brussel Griffons, whom I LOVE, and they BOTH dine off my hibiscus bushes, flowers, buds, even leaves, it has not seem to adversely effect either one, and they have been doing it awhile now. I yell at them all the time, but they act like it is calling their names. We even go in the house cause they go nuts on those bushes. I think I'm even gonna have my husband pull up the bushes after the holiday. Its a shame, cause they are beautiful mature bushes. My vet said it wouldn't hurt them either, but if they eat too many, sometimes they throw up. It is the craziest thing!!!!!

My griffon weighs 18 lbs and is a bit taller than the standard height. We purchased him from a pet store and I'm guessing that he was placed there because he didn't fit the standard measurements. We wanted a companion, not a show dog. So despite being larger than the norm, he's a great dog with an equally big heart!11/14/2012 12:12:51 PM
There is a large size variation in this breed. As a breeder - when I started breeding in 1995 I would get a 5 lb mature dog and an 18 lb mature dog out of the same litter regularly. Through the years I have finally been able to regulate my size to 8-10 lbs per pup per litter. But there are still those dogs in the gene pool throwing the varied sizes.1/19/2013 9:26:21 PM
Nope. Brussels Griffons can grow up to 20 lbs lean. Breeders don't say that, they tell you the average. He should look like a skinny rat when wet-if not, he might need to lose a few pounds. Just cut back on his food. They are the best dogs in the world! If you don't want him send him to me!! Seriously!5/15/2014 4:07:04 PM
I have 2 (7 year old)wonderful BG litter mates (brothers). The black and tan is tall and 19 lbs. The red is shorter and 17 pounds both are lean can see the ribs when wet. However their 3 sisters are 8 to 10 pounds. I could hold the boys in one hand when I first saw them.It is hard to predict unless you know the grand parents as well. In my case I found that the large size came from the sires side(Black and Tan). still wouldn't trade them for all the tea in China. I have been griffinized.2/15/2015 2:07:56 PM

Yes, but almost all groomers are not familiar with the breed. I've had my Brussels Griffon come out with a Poodle cut, blow out to look like a Chow--and I even brought in a book about the breed. Best thing is to contact a breeder in your area and explain the situation or if you see a Griff, stop and ask the owner where he is groomed. Lastly, to save grief and money get some clippers and hair scissors 5/15/2014 3:59:33 PM
...and everyone will be happy! Worked for us for 13 years!5/15/2014 4:01:10 PM
No, Brussels Griffon's coat is supposed to be hand stripped. Clipping the coat will change the color and texture. 3/14/2015 11:19:32 AM
mine did too, Cataracts they are hard to see but look at dogs eye in certain lights and you should be able to see them. Have a Vet check them 4/16/2013 5:05:37 PM
My griff has diabetes and developed sugar cataracts and lost his sight. He was drinking buckets of water is how we discovered he had diabetes 4/12/2015 5:22:08 PM
No, we have a smooth coat Brussels with no whiskers. Do a search of Brussels Griffons on youtube and watch a dog show. There are several different looks.11/1/2012 3:14:39 PM
My boys bark at my fiancee if I am still in bed and they bark at company. I believe it is a territorial / cowardly lion issue with the smaller one and an attention getter with the larger one. The breed can be protective of their owners. I generally sit on the floor with them and tell them to calm down and it seems to work.7/8/2012 5:08:18 PM
I had 2 Brussels Griffons. Just lost one @ 8 yrs. Nether were chewers. My boy was bad as a youngster. I got my girl when he was 1. Huge difference. They need company when alone. She is lost without him.4/2/2015 10:17:49 PM
i have two Griffons and they do not have a high pitched bark . 4/18/2012 11:23:21 PM
I have 2 male brussels griffons. One is quiet and seldom barks. The other one will bark at anything, even when the a/c turns on. He has a high pitch, ear piercing bark, and never ending! The first dog we have had since he was 8 weeks old, the other was an adult dog when we got him. If you start teaching them when they are puppies, you can control their barking habits. Great little dogs, best friend you can ask for. You can change the barking if it persists.5/30/2012 4:32:33 PM
My Brussels weighs 17 lbs and he is BIG for a Brussels. He is also the sweetest, most wonderful little dog I've ever owned. I think they are usually about 10 lbs.5/3/2012 3:20:34 PM
My BG weighs 20 lbs she loves to eat and nap all day taking walks and lessen food works good, especially the treats!3/14/2015 8:25:51 PM
If she has never been bred and you love her I wouldn't risk it.any time you breed any dog you risk losing it.6/17/2012 8:05:55 PM
We have a Brussels that will be 3 in April--Hermione--she is AMAZING with our 2 daughters, age 8 and 10.....however, she is VERY territorial and stand-offish with our daughters' friends. This usually only lasts for 5-10 minutes and then she all of a sudden decides that they are ok and loves on them like they are family :) It's almost like once she figures out that our family is not in danger, she calms right down! I also have 2 nephews that are 18mos and 3 yrs old that visit frequently--she is wonderful with them as well.2/23/2012 9:20:38 AM
change the dog food and proper walking. The dog food ingredients should start with meat. Try; TASTE OF THE WILD its good for all kinds of dogs and ages.
i feed my griffons science diet...it is vet recommended and they dont have gas.4/18/2012 11:24:51 PM
My dog had terrible gas when I got him. It turned out he is missing an enzyme that helps digest his food. He is on tylan powder which can be compounded into a liquid. This condition led to pancreatitis from which he was very ill. I give him Royal Canine low fat highly digestible dog food prescribed by my vet. Please have your puppy checked out. The gas ia an absolute nightmare to live with but could be the start of a something much worse.5/4/2012 1:16:17 PM
Try changing the food6/17/2012 8:03:25 PM
read the dog food package and it should tell you by size and weight2/4/2012 4:50:32 PM
Offers mine according to their needs. If they are in good weight, I don't change anything. If they start looking thinner I add more. If they start looking overweight, I feed them less.6/17/2012 7:57:17 PM
Read the recommendations but use common sense also. If your dog is overweight give less. If your Dog is underweight, give more. I'm constantly adjusting my dogs food. I work at a vet clinic and we see alot of fat dogs being fed the recommended amount on a bag.6/17/2012 8:11:46 PM
My 6 yo shih tzu developed autoimmune hemolytic anemia, sounds like what Louis may have. Treatment is critical at an early stage and you need to take Louis to a qualified emergency vet hospital ASAP if this is what he has. Lizzy was a pet therapy dog and I did everything to save to her but she did not respond well to tx and we lost her 6 months after diagnosis. They don't know what causes the disease, it is autoimmune and dogs respond differently to tx but it is hard to tx and there is no cure as far as I know. I am sorry for you that your little guy is ill and I hope he has a good outcome-God Bless!9/5/2011 3:01:12 PM
Our little dog did the same thing this week. We gave him the transfusion and a hold battery of drugs but it did not help. We lost him yesterday. They really gave us no explanation of what cased it. Hope your little dog improves.9/30/2011 3:34:38 PM
My brussels griffon is 6 years old and was just diagnoised this week as being anemic and is on prednisone and an antibiotic, i heard they can survive this. I hope and pray he does we love him so. I pray your little fella will get well also. He want eat and gums are pale no energy and it is not like him at all.11/6/2011 6:03:18 PM
My Brussels is awesome with my kids who are 6 and 7. he is so laid back and not aggressive at all.9/8/2011 9:37:35 PM
My brussel is wonderful with my two kids. They are age 10 and 7 but he has been with us for 2 years. He let's my daughter dress him and put him in her stroller. He is a great breed
I was 2 when I got my Brussels Griffon. Hes' grown with me. They are very fun. I am10, I got him when he was 3 months old. They are amazing with kids and mine, his name is chewy, he will crawl under me like a pillow. I've also got a baby one, marbles, and hes also good with kids also me.9/20/2011 9:05:22 PM
We have a Brussels who is 3 years old, and sheds very little.
My short hair Brussels Griffon girl sheds constantly...lots of vacuuming. If I wear anything black, it will most assuredly have some little blonde hairs on it! I've had two long hair boys and there was little to no shedding...so the coat type is the difference.8/28/2011 1:32:56 PM
my two long hair brussell griffons shed horribly. there is hair all over the place from them...have to vacuum every day
Happy, happy, happy! Brussels Griffon's will always light up your day with their enthusiasm for life! I personally have never had a mean one, they love everyone and everything. There is just enough Terrier in them to make them fun, but not enough to make them aggressive.6/6/2011 3:16:12 PM
Brussels Griffon's are very happy and LOTS of energy our little girl goes spastic every time anyone enters our home and only at bedtime crashes lol we love her1/30/2012 11:05:19 PM
My 1.5 yr old Brussels Griffon is very happy and loving. I am disabled and some days can't get around well, other days do fine. My little 7 lb girl is active when I am, and when I nap a lot, so does she. A natural retriever, her joy is to run and bring back her squeaky ball or toy. The first small dog I've had, she has been such a loveable and attentive girl, responsive and smart as a tack. I could not be happier.6/5/2012 6:38:35 PM
Brussels Griffon's bark to alert you to things, but are not annoying barkers unless you let them be. I do not consider them to be big barkers compared to other dogs of their size.6/6/2011 3:18:38 PM
Joe is 5 years old and his bark is so low and gentle. Not shrill at all. He does not bark when someone knocks on the door but barks when he meets other dogs at Pet Store.10/24/2011 7:12:16 PM
Well Asza, our girl Brussels Griffon, barks soft but my 15 year old daughter has her howling now its like this little weak sounding howl1/30/2012 11:06:13 PM
Romes is 3.5 years old and has a sister (pit mix) and a brother (pit) when the big dogs howl outside he joins them! But he is not much of a barker unless he is warning someone is coming up the drive. He does speak (makes sounds) when he wants to eat, go outside or just trying to get someones attention, it's really funny. 7/8/2012 9:33:40 PM

I re-watch "A Christmas Story" season after season. Besides simply being a good movie, it rekindles wonderful emotions in us older adults. It forcefully pushes Southern male buttons.
In fact, some years ago after watching the movie for the umpteenth time I decided I wanted another Red Ryder BB gun for Christmas. My wife Ann kindly filled the wish.
Although I knew she'd ordered it, I dutifully waited until Christmas morning to unwrap it and go outside to shoot. Plinking with the gun wasn't a big deal but hearing the BBs rattle back and forth inside the magazine was absolutely delicious.
Some things bore so deeply into psyche they almost become genetic. The sound of BBs cascading inside a Daisy is one of them that hasn't changed one iota in 60 years.
I shot a million BBs during my adolescence. I "hunted" away entire summers from can-see to can't-see, sunrise to sunset.
To my discredit, I killed thousands of birds, which now offends my adult human sensibilities. But back then I was more of a predator and less of a thinker and danced to inner reptilian drums.
But that's neither here nor there in the natural scheme of things. I lived as a normal Southern boy and one of my more precious tools on that journey was my trusty BB gun.
What moved this subject onto this page was my grandson, Bug. He and his parental "staff" are due from Japan next week.
He's decided that he wants to learn to shoot, so to that end, my BB gun and carton of BBs are waiting by the tree for his arrival. I look forward to teaching him, letting him experience one of the tiny rites of passage boys of my generation enjoyed.
So many experiences of formative years are disappearing, lost from disuse or blown away by political winds of social engineering. Just this week the state of New Jersey moved to control BB guns. That could make Ralphie a felon.
When I saw that news, I didn't get upset. Governmental insanity is invading every nook and cranny of our lives. Bureaucratic nonsense is in full bloom, fertilized and watered with egos and speeches.
Just last week a little kid was suspended from school for sexual harassment, kissing a classmate on the hand. Hopefully those powers won't go back into my life and bust me for my fifth-grade peck on Linda Denio's dimpled cheek.
My song dedication to many public schools is, "Dysfunction junction, what in the world is your function?" It must not be to educate children. Look at results.
With liberal politicians and teachers' unions making rules and dealing cards, the fix is in. Have you checked out our comparative ratings in the world? Nasty.
Children should play ball and tag and live a life of texture, even if they pick up a few bruises along the way. They should be taught reading, writing and arithmetic.
Bad teachers should be fired and good ones rewarded. Oh yeah, while I'm dreaming, let's free Ralphie!

Electronic journals, also known as ejournals, e-journals, and electronic serials, are scholarly journals or intellectual magazines that can be accessed via electronic transmission. In practice, this means that they are usually published on the Web. They are a specialized form of electronic document: they have the purpose of providing material for academic research and study, and they are formatted approximately like journal articles in traditional printed journals. Being in electronic form, articles sometimes contain metadata that can be entered into specialized databases, such as DOAJ or OACI, as well as the databases and search-engines for the academic discipline concerned. Some electronic journals are online-only journals; some are online versions of printed journals, and some consist of the online equivalent of a printed journal, but with additional online-only (sometimes video and interactive media) material.

Tons of compliments
I thought these would be perfect for our military wedding ... and apparently many of our guests thought so too because we have received so many compliments about how cute our invitations were. Love, love, love them! I also really liked that I was able to edit the colors so that I could change the pants color to better reflect the actual colors of the Army dress blue uniform. Perfect!

Lock Yoann Maestri is the only new inclusion in France's run-on XV for their Test against Argentina on Saturday.
Maestri was a late withdrawal ahead of his team's 33-6 thrashing of the Wallabies last weekend. However, he is fit for selection for the clash against the Pumas and comes in for second-rower Jocelino Suta.
The rest of the team remains unchanged, which sees former Sharks pivot Frederic Michalak continue to establish himself in the No 10 jersey after a star performance against Australia in Paris.
