Paint over Powder Coat
Looking to spray bomb tins that have been powdercoated. need help with the best steps to take. I'm using spray bombs, and wanna clearcoat with automotive-grade polyurethane...yes or no on that??? OPTIONS, PLEASE...Thanx Y'all!
I have tried spray bomb over powder coat... It doesn't adhere directly and easily flakes off. You might try an intermediate layer of primer, but I haven't tried that.
and an automotive grade clear coat is likely to wrinkle spray can paint
There are a lot of variables to make spray bomp paint stick on any surface not just powder coat, but generally clean the surface with a solvent prior to doing anything, then a complete wet sanding the old surface with 220 to 400 grit wet dry paper should done. Grit choice determined by surface finish needed. Primer can help but it must be compatible with finish coat. Mist coats first then regular coats and apply at proper temp with proper drying between coats are just some of the variables. The choice for the top coat ( brand and chemistry) is another variable that will effect the out come. The clear coat adds another variable and it must be compatible with all, the prior applied products brand and chemistry help to avoid bad things from happening with spray bombs then switching to auto clear coat. Is the clear going to in spray bomb? It may help if it the same brand. If the parts are valuable test panels would be a good idea.

He is not shy of colours or bold motifs. Gaurang Shah's saris, however, stand out for the unanticipated combinations of fabric and design
His love for the Jamdani weave is obvious in all his saris, and Gaurang Shah uses them liberally and creatively, combing it in with a kota, contrasting it with a translucent organza, or bringing out the best in a sombre khadi.
"A Jamdani weave is like Parsi embroidery; no threads are left hanging. It is all 'sealed' and so won't get entangled with your accessories. It doesn't need a protective net," explains Gaurang, who's made himself a household name in Hyderabad, with his non-conformist combination of weaves and fabrics. A Muga sari gets a Paithani silk border, a Kanjeevaram kuyilkan weave finds itself on an ample ghaghra, an Uppada design in Jamdani looks like a whole new language by itself. "I really enjoy texturing," he says by way of explanation for choosing this weaving technique.
Gaurang was in Bangalore for his first ever exhibition in the city, as part of his tour Paanchali, which takes him to five cities totally. He is heading next in August-September to Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Chennai.
Calling his saris bold would be an understatement. It almost seems he has an obsession for huge floral motifs, with audacious sunflowers and roses strewn across most saris. There's a khaki and Muga sari in his collection where the elaborate weave incorporates huge roses and bold paisleys connected by curvy vines. It almost looks like it's been peeled off a classic English wallpaper. "Exactly," beams Gaurang at my suggestion. "It was inspired by wallpaper prints. My weaver took one-and-a-half years to weave this." Sigh! "And I paid one-and-half lakh just as labour charge. The Jamdani weave is so intricate that a weaver can weave not more than two inches in a day," he points out.
Gaurang is not shy with colours either. A parrot green Ikkat body cascades into an elaborate Kanjeevaram border in the candy-est of pinks. And this is a border with elaborate animal motifs in its almost ten-inch height. His rainbow palette is dominated by hot pinks, oranges, bold reds, canary yellows, and neon greens. He also straddles the other end of the spectrum with equal ease with beige, cream, and off-white lulling the eyes in the readymade outfit line. Dresses are only available in exhibitions and run the gamut of matka, hand-painted Kalamkari, chikankari embroidery and more. In every kind of sari he makes, both the extremes of colour palettes are offered; sometimes he offsets the two to great effect.
"I believe in a revival in terms of the use of pure zari, weaving techniques, and design," says Gaurang. He's also brought back intricately woven ghaghras, complete with heavy gold-embroidered borders. "I do heavy silks, which makes them softer. And the softer it becomes, you can drape them better."
Starting off in 1999 as a designer with no formal training in design, Gaurang says it was only passion that drove him to handloom when the chiffons and georgettes were reigning.
He recalls how his love for the sari began in his father's fabric store for blouse pieces. "After school, my brother and I would go help in the shop and I got to see such an amazing variety of saris day after day."
"At the time when I started off, traditional weavers were not getting much work. The younger generation was moving away from this profession. I brought about colour changes in traditional designs. Revived some of the old designs they knew. Today I have about 450 weavers all over the country working for me. In fact, there's a khadi village near Vizag where nearly all the 100 families in the village get work from me. I draw a design and give it to them. I don't set any limits on time and money. I have set up all my master weavers with a computer and explain things over video-calling. Now the younger generation of weavers is coming back into the fold because they feel they are getting their share of money for their effort."
There's been a demand for his saris outside the boundaries of Hyderabad and Mumbai, where he has two exclusive stores. "People in south India still use the sari as everyday wear, while in the north it's almost gone; it's only jeans and dresses. Now the sari has become occasional wear." His saris range from around Rs. 9,500 to Rs. four lakh. He brought a film to show his buyers at the Bangalore exhibition. "My saris are expensive. And buyers should know why. They need to see what kind of work my weavers put in to make that sari."

In private booths, tattoo artists Jamie Ventura and Derek Reckard adorn arms, backs, and feet with one-of-a-kind artwork, such as barbed wire. Decade-plus piercing veteran Reverend Sean Theroux slips custom-shaped jewelry through ears and tongues, including jewelry for ears specially designed to thread through multiple piercings.288 Plymouth AvenueFall River, MA US
NewSkin Tattoo RemovalRead MoreNewSkin Tattoo Removal's specialists clear away tattoos of all kinds, ranging from complex pieces that cover the entire back to cruder designs and those temporary tattoos that won't wash off. Their implement of choice is the Q-switched Nd: Yag, a laser designed specifically for tattoo removal. Its beams break down the structure of ink particles so that the body can flush them away. In addition to full tattoo removal, patrons can opt to lighten up a tattoo so that it can be covered by another, or to remove only a portion of a tattoo.544 Milford RdSwansea, MA US
Inflicting Ink LLCRead MoreInflicting Ink Tattoo owner Jeff Goyette understands that, though the decision to get a tattoo is a lifetime commitment, sometimes life's best laid designs inspire regrets years later. Whether his customers are prompted by the poor performance of a previous tattoo artist, a painful break-up, or a simple lifestyle change, Jeff helps rid them of unwanted ink with the help of his parlor's Quanta laser system. Certified as a Laser Specialist and Laser Safety Officer by Quanta's makers, Jeff blasts away colors light and dark with the laser's muscular 15-30 joule pulses.

He and his fellow tattoo artists not only tattoo bodies with traditional designs, but forge bold, colorful new-school designs and perform cosmetic tattooing services. He also takes his show on the road, traveling to tattoo events far and wide in a self-contained, fully licensed mobile studio complete with three spacious workstations, sleek wood paneling, and gleaming steel sinks. No matter the venue, Jeff and his staffers always place an emphasis on education. Clients can spend time mulling over Inflicting Ink's range of tattoo tips—from what to look for in a studio to how to make your tattooed sailor girl apply for an undergraduate program by simply flexing your biceps.2968 E Main Rd.Portsmouth, RI US
Disappearing inc.Read MoreWhereas medical spas often offer tattoo-removal services on the side, Disappearing inc. sets itself apart by focusing all of its energy on ridding customers of unwanted ink. However, despite their singular goal of erasing body ink, staff members respect tattoos as an art form and a personal choice, and understand that customers have many reasons for wanting to get a tattoo removed or altered. This is why they start all jobs with a free consultation to get to know customers and customize services to their needs. Then, during a tattoo-removal session, a licensed technician uses a state-of-the-art Quanta Q-Plus C laser and Zimmer cooling machine to target the deep-seated pigment. The ink then breaks into small particles and eventually disappears through the body's immune system. Though most customers come in with the goal of eliminating their entire tattoo, Disappearing inc. can also remove parts of tattoos such as a sloppily drawn star in a constellation or a centipede's 101st leg.128A Tremont St.Boston, MA US

February 7, 2012 - Hot Puerto Rican prospect, Thomas Dulorme (13-0, 10 KOs), was scheduled to face Jose Reynoso (15-3-1, 2KOs) on ShoBox February 17, but will have to find another opponent due to a hip injury suffered by Reynoso while training in California. Charlie Perez, manager of Reynoso, informed Gary Shaw that Jose was taken to the emergency room where his hip was popped back into place after the doctor told him that he had a hip contusion. Reynoso left the hospital in crutches.
Gary Shaw went on to say, "It's unfortunate that Reynoso will have to pull out of this fight. I know it must have been a serious injury for him to do so. My team is diligently looking for an opponent to step in. Right now we have a few names that we're looking at. An announcement will be made shortly."

DJBooth's favorite singer/producer/modern day Rennaissance man Novel has been playing with one hand tied behind his back, but you wouldn't know it to look at his résumé (Take Over, Call Me, etc. etc. etc.). So now that he's finally free from a restrictive deal with Capitol Records, I can only image the output we'll be hearing. Actually, thanks to his new track Switch It Up, I don't have to imagine at all. Built around a supremely smooth, feel-good beat from Novel with summertime jam written all over it, vocally Switch It Up finds Novel walking the fine line between rapping and singing with skill, waxing philosophic about the need for artists to start putting their art above their bank accounts. Imagine that. As if that wasn't enough, newcomer Algebra plays the cherry to the track's vocal sundae with some superb back-up vocals. For visual accompaniment, check out the recently released video for Switch It Up, directed by (who else?) Novel himself. And of course keep it locked for more details on the release of his upcoming project Caligraphy, set to drop soon.

A literary figure has threatened to go on fast-unto-death if the demand is not met
The indecisiveness, if it is that, of the Union Government over the issue of according the so-called "classical language" status to Kannada, after promptly conceding a corresponding demand in respect of Tamil soon after it assumed office, may just be the provocation for Kannada nationalistic passions to once again get out of hand in Karnataka. There is no need to recall earlier instances of such uncontrolled wrath, and the consequent self-inflicted damage, rather like that brought upon himself by the senile and vain old king with delusions of grandeur.
That the demand in Karnataka came to the fore only in the wake of the decision of the Union Government in September 2004 to concede the long standing demand for recognition of Tamil as a "classical language" is no coincidence. Nor is it a coincidence that the Tamil demand was conceded soon after a new correlation of forces with a strong Tamil nationalistic presence came together in the wake of the May 2004 Lok Sabha elections and formed the government in Delhi.
November 1 has now come and gone; and this expected gift to the Kannadigas coinciding with the Rajyotsava Day has not materialised. A new deadline of the end of 2007 has been set by the votaries of the demand for such recognition, the "legitimate aspiration of over five crore Kannadigas".
In the last six months that this Kannadiga has been able to study the Kannada print media, there have been at least 46 news items, apart from photographs related to the same subject, focussing on the demand. These report meetings, demonstrations and protests over the 'step-motherly' attitude of the Union Government towards Kannada and Karnataka, memoranda, journeys of delegations to Delhi. A highly respected Kannada literary figure has undertaken two dawn-to-dusk symbolic fasts and has threatened to go on a fast-unto-death if the Union Government does not concede this demand before the end of 2007, the new deadline.
In all this, no one seems to be asking the question: why? Why this desire to secure such a status for one's language since "classical languages" are, or at least were, assumed to be virtually dead languages unlike Tamil or Kannada which are alive and vibrant? In what way will the language and its speakers benefit by this tag? Neither the several memoranda on the subject nor the subsequent literature following the September 2004 decision provides a satisfactory answer — except to claim that the recognition accorded to Tamil, the first living Indian language to be so recognised (a point that is sure to be endlessly bruited), acknowledges the antiquity of the language, its unbroken literary tradition and the uniqueness of its literary sensibility and other equally ponderous points of self-congratulation and self-gratification, and massaging of one's egos.
The Kannada nationalistic urge to emulate Tamil in each and every respect also bespeaks insecurities that have affected Kannada sensibility.
At a ridiculous and harmless level, it has led to calling conjunctivitis as "Madras eye." However, failure to successfully emulate the Tamil may make for more serious dislocations that are sure to be exploited by forces always predisposed to demonise the other. Above all, such obsessions about the diminishment of Kannada by malevolent anti-Kannada forces deflect attention from the far more serious problems affecting the consolidation of the Kannada sensibility, historically beset with caste and religious divides, and of late the incipient sub-regional divides, apart from more general divides brought about by unequal economic development.

A parent of a class III student recently went rushing to meet her daughter's class teacher to confront her about why the child had not 'felt like coming to school' over the past few days. The parent went on to say that it was because a particular teacher spoke 'harshly' to her daughter. "The parent said that until the previous academic year, her daughter never complained and came to school willingly," said the teacher. In this context, how do you decide what is considered a 'harsh' word in a classroom? And, more importantly who really is listening to the teacher? Either everybody, or absolutely no one, many teachers say.
The teacher, who is the last mile between policy makers and students to ensure actualisation of everything from an ambitious teaching methodology to the child's grasp of the alphabet, colours and concepts, is today negotiating not just rising expectations from parents and managements, but also a jumble of evaluation sheets, paper work and assessments. Though teachers say they find the profession rewarding, classroom dynamics, they observe have changed radically.
While for many government schools, teachers and managements, the challenge begins from bringing the child to school, and convincing parents about the importance of education, private school teachers complain about 'overcrowded schools', increasing instances of 'hyper parenting', and a loss of autonomy.
One of the fallouts of this may be waning levels of personal connections between the teacher and the pupil. To ensure that learning takes place in the class, teachers must be able to make eye contact with every student at least once during the class hour, and be familiar with the names of all the students, say experts. A professor who has been teaching B.Ed students for close to two decades, said that they brace their students for the challenges which lie ahead, because the profession is still caught in a bubble – it is considered a 'safe' profession with convenient working hours.
You may give children crayons and pencils, in a frenzy of colours, and give little fingers the freedom to spew strokes and shades in every form, but no art is defined without a boundary. Today, where everything boils down to evaluation, the best student is after all the one who makes the neatest drawing, and creatively uses colours, and the best teacher the one who ensures that it falls carefully within the line. A line that sometimes, even restricts teachers from what they can say in a classroom.

Warm and satisfying this oatmeal really sticks to your ribs and starts the say off on the right foot. You can really be creative and change the flavors up by adding in your favorite mix ins and toppings. Dried fruits, nuts, spices the possibilities are endless. This recipe makes a good 8 servings (because I have a large family) and is one of my go-to recipes for Sunday mornings when everyone is home. However on the weekdays when it is just the me and the three little kids I cut this recipe in half and cook it in my 3 quart crock-pot. I just start it the night before and wake up to breakfast already done. It's like having a little kitchen fairy who cooks in the middle of the night. Which is lovely, because I hate cooking breakfast!
In the picture I used dried cranberries, chopped pecans and topped my oatmeal with a little honey and cream (decadent!)
Dump ingredients in the crock-pot the night before and wake up to breakfast done and ready to serve in the morning!
- Combine all ingredients except nuts in a 5-6 quart crock-pot.
- Cook on low 4-6 hours.
- Stir in nuts (if using) before serving.
- Sweeten to your liking with honey, brown sugar, or whatever sweetener you like.

Sales system ignores elements that are environmentally friendly
To help bridge the information gap, the country's largest appraisal professional group, the Appraisal Institute, recently released an updated "green addendum" that realty agents and sellers can use to call attention to the energy saving features of homes, especially in areas where the local MLS provides no separate green fields. Appraisers can attach the addendum to their standard appraisal reports as a way to justify additional value assigned to the house because of the cost-saving improvements.
Of special note, given the fast-growing popularity of solar panels and arrays, is a special section within the addendum that provides the appraiser access to an online tool — a "PV value" calculator developed by Sandia Labs and Energy Sense Finance — that estimates the incremental value the photovoltaic installation adds to the property based on a discounted cash flow model.
Bottom line for sellers with significant energy conservation investments: Make sure your realty agent gets them highlighted in the MLS listing. And make sure that the appraiser who is sent to value your property uses the green addendum and has adequate training to do the job. Otherwise the money you spent may not get the fair treatment it deserves in the valuation.
The addendum is at appraisalinstitute.org.

VILLA OLEANDER is a luxury villa with 3 bedrooms (all with en suite bathrooms) in Mougins, sleeping 6-7.
Set within a mature, south-facing Mediterranean garden with breath-taking views over the Old Village (15 mins walk) and the Bay of Cannes. Just 20 minutes from Nice Airport and 6km from Cannes.
The villa has been recently renovated to a superb standard with luxury bathrooms and a designer kitchen.
It is air-conditioned throughout.
The accommodation is arranged over two levels. At ground level we have an open plan kitchen, living room and dining room, and also the first master bedroom from which French doors open out to a large terrace linking to the living areas. Upstairs there is a second master bedroom with two private balconies, and also a third double bedroom.
There is a separate laundry room and also a well equipped games room.
The terraced gardens are beautifully secluded and landscaped including a private heated swimming pool, pool house and full sized boules court.
The views from the house and gardens to the Old Village with the Mediterranean Sea and the Esterel Mountains in the background are truly stunning.
It is this wonderful view that has defined the standard for which we have tried to follow in all that we have done at the villa. ====================================================================================
The villa has undergone complete renovation in recent years including, of course, new bathrooms and kitchen and also new air conditioning.
Most recently our attention turned to upgrading the gardens around our existing mature trees which include olive, eucalyptus, oleander, pine, cedar, apricot, palm and cypress trees.
This started with the laying of our full sized boules court on the lower garden terrace, which is great afternoon fun! Then the creation of a large decked area with a viewing gallery overlooking the boules court for the non-players. The inspiration for the deck is our fabulous palm tree, which makes it the perfect place for relaxing in dappled sunshine on our outdoor lounge furniture.
Next, a Chelsea Flower Showing and Tatton Park gold medal winning team of design and landscapers came over and redesigned, extended and rebuilt the sun and pool terracing. The pool itself was also refurbished and pool heating added. The pool has a safety alarm. At the same time, the main flowerbeds were replanted and incorporated a fully automated, underground irrigation system.
By the pool there is an outdoor shower and a pool house (equipped with WiFi, drinks fridge, sink, music player and seating). The pool house and adjacent area get late sunshine and is wonderfully sheltered making sunbathing still possible in cooler months.
The landscaping team returned the following year to create an area by the boules court to enjoy a game of outdoor table tennis amongst other games. They also added new flowerbeds and linking paths, completing the look with a formal garden in the top corner featuring a semi circular teak bench. This is a perfect area for a quiet moment or coffee and newspapers in the morning sun.
In the last year, the exterior of the house has been completely repainted, our access road has been re-surfaced and our pool has just been re-tiled, demonstrating our commitment to a very high level of maintenance. (November 2014).
The pool and garden are beautifully lit at night time and all these areas can be viewed from a large terrace which wraps around the house where we have an outdoor dining table adjacent to our climbing bougainvillea. There is a patio heater for cooler months and a choice of gas or conventional charcoal Weber barbeques. Dining here on the terrace with the sun going down and the lights coming on in Mougins Village is always a delight.
There is high hedging on all sides for excellent privacy.
The villa has private parking for 3 cars and is secured by remote controlled electric gates. ====================================================================================
Children are very welcome at Villa Oleander and we have plastic boules for the boules court and plenty of inflatables for the heated pool. The children (and young at heart adults!) will enjoy the renovation of our games room, featuring a slate bed pool table and lounge area with large flatscreen TV and Xbox 360 games console (with Kinect and DVD player) and seating area for books and board games. ==================================================================================== Recognition: AS FEATURED in `SHE` MAGAZINE!

Hi! I`m Alastair. My wife, Sue, and I bought Villa Oleander in Mougins with Paul and his wife, Leony, in 2007. I have known Paul since I was 4 years old, and he and I manage all the issues involved in renting our villa out to others. I am a chartered accountant and he is a general dental practitioner.
Alastair Walmsley purchased this villa in 2007
We wanted to find a location and villa that we would never tire of revisiting. That location had to be the South of France because of its year round appeal - there is so much more to do than just sunbathe. Mougins, I think, has the perfect location on the Riviera - centrally placed for Monaco, Cannes, St Tropez and everywhere in between. Our villa feels like it is in the heart of Provence, yet it is only 10 minutes from the Med and 20 minutes from Nice International Airport. Oh, and it just happens to have a picture perfect medieval village famed for its excellent restaurants! Not to mention the golf courses!
Equally, Villa Oleander has the perfect position in Mougins. It is within easy walking distance of the Old Village yet perched up to have the perfect view over the village with the Mediterranean Sea in the background and the Esterel mountains to the west. All the main rooms open to this south facing view, and there is nothing quite like watching the sun going down and the village light up at night whilst drinking a glass of wine on the balcony. I will gladly email a panoramic picture of our view - it really is exceptional! We are very proud of our villa and love to stay there with our families, but take pleasure from the fact that when we can`t be there, others are enjoying it too. I am more than happy to chat with anyone who thinks they may be interested in staying there.
It was our son Frederik who wanted to go to cote d'Azur for holiday as he loves France, and this not only because he has a French girlfriend. He got the task to look for a house to rent by internet and he found.....Villa Oleander in Mougins! The presentation of Villa Oleander in the internet was really good but what we saw when we went there for the first time was even much more than we expected. It is a marvellous place and it was perfect for our family holiday. The view over Mougins and the hills as far as to the sea is spectacular and at any time of the day really brilliant. You are nearby to the great places of Cannes, Nice and Monaco and to all the other lovely villages in the region. There is so much you can do in this region: strolling along the market of Valbonne, eating great seafood by Brune in Cannes, relaxing in the sun in one of the beach clubs, and so on and on.....But also just staying at the Villa will guarantee you a perfect day because it offers everything you need: the swimming pool area is great ,the pool-house with refrigerator guaranties cold wine at any time without moving and the sitting area under the big palm is a good place for reading or having a break from the sun. The little terrace in front of the sleeping room upstairs is the best place to start in the day with a cup of coffee and a croissant in the morning. At the terrace in front of the living room we spent lovely evenings having dinner and having interesting discussions by candlelight with our children. Villa Oleander not only offers you everything you need for a perfect holiday in a house. It is furthermore the spirit of the house which makes you feel that everything to the smallest detail is arranged with enthusiasm and love. We all hope to come back to Villa Oleander one time.......
(review posted on villaoleander.co.uk)
The villa was immaculate and the welcome was tremendously friendly. We were delayed due to traffic and grocery shopping but received calming texts telling us not to worry. We were in contact with the local resource as well as the owners during the stay, and both sides were very helpful and informative. Mougins was a delight to explore, and we did plenty of exploring down in Cannes, St Paul de Vence, Grasse, Eze and one day trip West down to St Tropez. We carved out some time to rediscover talents at bocce ball and table tennis, and we were so glad we did. The villa is amazing and we would come back in a heartbeat.
Our Home in France!!
Bev and I ("young" widow friends) spent 3 wonderful weeks in Villa Oleander! I had a knee that was misbehaving so we spent more time than we had planned in our home with "the million dollar view"! What a treat that was....dining alfresco on our terrace with candles, flowers and wine!
Our visiting friend from Montreal was enchanted!
The entire house was lovely and our bedrooms, very comfortable.....great pillows!
Our kitchen was a pleasure to work in. We had everything we needed and more. We love cooking and food shopping was NOT disappointing. Visits to the Carrefour for staples and wine...Le Grand Frais for everything else and the upscale shops in Valbonne for everything else and more! They had wonderful prepared meals, pates and cheese. And, of course, always a stop at the Patisserie on Ave. Saint Basile for our daily baguette. I think we became "French foodies" !
Alizataxi was a godsend! She drove us to the door of La Place de Mougins where we had a delightful dinner. She also took us on a 4 hour tour along the Mediterranean ending up in Eze..... Beautiful!
Lunches out were always a treat. L'Amandier de Mougins was very special. We also loved Resto des Arts (moules et frites) and Broche de Fer ( Soupe au Poisson). Moulin de Mougins was very disappointing.
Lucy, the delightful English girl who came to clean couldn't do enough for us.
Claire was superb. She went to great lengths to make our stay perfect. We had a few travel changes due to "the knee" and she was most helpful with those.
We loved our stay in our "Home in France" and would love to return!!
Villa Oleander is a special place!
We had a wonderful holiday at the Villa late Sept/early Oct, with glorious weather.
The Villa with an immaculately maintained private spacious garden and pool is located in a semi-rural setting with an uninterrupted view of the lovely hilltop village of Mougins, about 15 minutes walk away.
With no nearby passing traffic, everything was peaceful day and night.
The typically French accommodation is very comfortable (including the sleeping accommodation) with a high level of convenience and maintained to a very high standard. The air conditioning system worked well.
The outdoor dining facility on the terrace, with views of Mougins is, a real plus point where we spent many hours.
Stunning Cannes, with its many festivals, is only 6 km away and there are many other interesting places to visit - don't miss St-Paul-de-Vence.
In summary, a wonderful place to relax and re-charge the batteries, in a lovely part of France.
The perfect place from which to explore and succumb to the magic of Mougins ……… Villa Oleander is a treasure! Seated on the terrace, sipping a glass of Sancerre, lulled by the strains of a French chanteuse and watching the lights begin to twinkle in the old village, it is hard to leave this post card perfect home ……… even to indulge in the culinary delights that await in several of the excellent restaurants in Mougins. Villa Oleander exudes the romantic charm of the south of France, while providing the modern conveniences that make a stay there trouble free. I would go back in a heartbeat and I will!

Our family has just returned from Easter week at Oleander. The villa was ideal as a base to explore the Cote D'Azur region, and then return to relax in tranquillity. The airport is minutes away, the old village of Mougins lingers in the view of the hills, and Cannes is close enough to see the sea, but far enough to feel worlds away from the bustle of La Croisette.
The property is very well equipped, and understatedly elegant inside and out. Our teenagers were even so well occupied with the amenities - boules, billiards, pool & ping pong - they forgot there was a great WIFI signal and SKY TV. It is evident the property has an abundance of TLC and feels like a 'home', and not a rental villa. If you are considering a move to the South of France, a stay in Oleander will give you a refreshing taste of life as a local and not a tourist. We would thoroughly recommend Oleander as a wonderful foundation to build memories of France with family and friends.
We stayed with family and friends at the fantastic Villa Oleander in July 2013; it was our third stay so I guess that sums up exactly what we feel about the place! Villa Oleander just gets better and better each year, the gardens are beautiful and are lovingly maintained, the Villa itself is constantly being updated and we love all the little extra touches such as dressing gowns, information re the area etc, the owners haven't just bought a villa in the south of France to rent out to make money, you can see it is a definite passion for them. After holidaying in the South of France for many years now, we can honestly say you will be extremely hard pressed to find a villa with such a fantastic location, it is on the door step to Mougins old village with all its fabulous restaurants and art shops, a short drive into Cannes and Antibes, and also an easy commute of under 30 mins to Nice, St Tropez, Grasse, and the pretty villages of Eze and St Paul de Vence. The actual positioning of the villa cannot be beaten; you are in a private quiet area with amazing views towards Mougins and the bay of Cannes in the distance. We spent many a balmy evening eating alfresco watching the firework displays of both Cannes and Mougins. Local amenities are great, there is a supermarket a short 5 minute drive away, bakers, pharmacy etc just 2 minutes drive or 10 minute walk away and then for a lovely family lunch and mooch about there is the very English village of Valbonne, we loved the little shops and boutiques there. Claire and her team make arrival and anything during your stay extra easy, we had our 5 year old son with us and he was well catered for with regards little people's needs, I cannot say how fantastic the games room addition is both for parents and children, he spent , many an afternoon playing in there. Villa Oleander is a special place, fantastic location, superb interior including beds, linens, fully equipped kitchen, SKY TV etc and an equally amazing exterior. We love the place so much that we have now booked our fourth stay there next year; I really think that anyone would struggle to find a 5 star villa of equal standard.
Our villa is in the picture-postcard, 11th century, medieval village of Mougins, famous in the French Riviera for its superb restaurants, art galleries and surrounding golf courses.
Thanks to excellent road links, it is only 20 minutes from Nice Airport, yet retains its peaceful village charm. And whilst only 6km from Cannes and the Mediterranean Sea, it has the feel of being in the Provence countryside.
Mougins is centrally placed to explore the Cote d`Azur highlights of St Tropez, Cannes, Antibes, Nice and Monaco, not to mention the charming neighbouring villages of Grasse, Valbonne, St Paul de Vence, and Biot to name just a few close to our villa. We are also close enough to day trip to Menton and the Italian border, Aix-en-Provence, the magnificent Gorges du Verdon, and the less touristy villages of the Northern Var and Gorges du Loup.
Our in house iPad is full of suggestions for days out.
(see our Pinterest pages for ideas; http://uk.pinterest.com/mouginsvilla)
Mougins is also home to the 427 hectare National Parc de La Valmasque and Lake Fontemerle, giving it a semi rural feel.
At a height of 260 metres, Mougins is beautifully maintained, its winding pedestrian streets filled with art galleries and over a dozen excellent restaurants. Pablo Picasso chose to spend his last 12 years here and his studio was in the Old Village in a building that is now the tourist office. Other famous people that have chosen Mougins to live include Fernand Léger, Jean Cocteau, Yves Saint Laurent, Winston Churchill, Édith Piaf. The michelin starred Moulin de Mougins and the 5 star Mas Candille have cemented Mougins` reputation. Alain Ducasse and Roger Vergé have managed restaurants in the village and now famous chef, Denis Fetisson, owns two of our many wonderful restaurants.
Mougins is fortunate to have the excellent Musée de la Photographie, Musée d`Art Classique, and each year hosts the International Gastronomy Festival of Mougins in September.
There are a dozen golf courses within 45 minutes of Mougins and within 5km of the villa there are three excellent courses which can compete with anything in Europe.
There are courses to suit all budgets.
The closest course to the villa (5 minutes' drive) and one of the best around, is Cannes Mougins, which has hosted European Tour events 14 times with winners including the late, great Seve Ballesteros. Green fees are €100- €120 per round and it is worth every cent!
Just the other side of the village is Royal Mougins, which is a very exclusive golf club with a course to match. Fees are €150-€175, but be sure to book well in advance as the club only allows limited numbers of non-members per day.
Only a ten minute drive from the villa, is Saint Donat, on the road between Mouans Sartoux and Grasse. The green fees are only €79 which is fantastic value for money. The course is not long, but intricate and testing; it always seems to be in great condition. Others a little further away but well worth a mention include the famous Four Seasons golf resort of Terre Blanche, which has two championship standard courses; le Riou is the shorter, but tighter; le Château is over 7,000 yards and is a true test for any standard of player.
Also Château de Taulane, beyond Grasse into the mountains- a stunning Gary Player designed course (green fees are €100 per round), and then Monte Carlo golf club- set high above the principality of Monaco with the most breathtaking views of the area.
We have a short video of a typical day at Villa Oleander.

From the Publisher
Thoroughly Catholic, utterly ecumenical, and strikingly contemporary: The Holy Preaching beckons us into a rich and challenging journey. It is a well-guided pilgrimage into sacred proclamation that respects the mystery yet proffers understanding; engages the individual reader, while never abandoning its social-ecclesial context; explores the conceptual but always at the service of the pastoral. This is not the last word on the sacramentality of proclamation, but it is unquestionably a good word, and I for one am profoundly grateful for it.

South Africa seen as carbon credit market
By Ed Stoddard
JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) – South Africa remains a largely
untapped source in the emerging carbon credit market though its
level of industrialisation means it has huge potential, an
analyst said on Monday.
The Kyoto Protocol obliges some 35 industrialized countries
to greenhouse gas emissions targets by 2008-12, but allows them
to meet these part-way by investing in pollution reduction in
developing countries, in units called carbon credits.
But of the some 223 projects registered under Kyoto's Clean
Development Mechanism (CDM) in the developing world, only three
are based in South Africa.
"There are still huge opportunities in South Africa. In
South Africa there is potential for millions and millions of
tonnes of carbon credits per year," said Randall
Spalding-Fecher, South African director of Econ Analysis, a
Norwegian environmental consultancy.
"A lot of carbon will be saved in South Africa as
industries switch from coal to natural gas," he said on the
sidelines of a seminar on carbon credits in Johannesburg
organized by PriceWaterhouseCoppers.
South Africa has one of the most industrialized economies
in the developing world and it is heavily reliant on the coal
which is found in abundance beneath its surface.
Spalding-Fecher also said South Africa had the capital and
the technical know-how to start up such projects and monitor
them. Costs for monitoring equipment alone can be prohibitive.
The potential elsewhere in Africa was limited because of
the simple fact that the world's poorest continent was not a
major emitter of greenhouse gases — though many experts say it
will suffer most from the consequences of climate change.
"There aren't a lot of emissions in Africa,"
Spalding-Fecher said. "In the rest of Africa, most of the
potential lies in afforestation and reforestation projects."
Such projects create what scientists call "carbon sinks"
which soak up CO2 in the atmosphere.
The first such projects which have been sponsored by the
World Bank's BioCarbon fund are expected to get CDM approval in
the next couple of months.

Hello everyone!
The BizSpark Startup of the day is Bit Flag Solutions. Started as a company in 2008 by a couple of small time investors who had an interest in making more intelligent investing decisions. With 10 years of investing experience and consulting and contracting with companies, including banks that handle a large share of stock market transactions, our ideas about how to help the average small time investor grew into Bit Flag Solutions.
Website: www.vesticator.com.
Honored! My partners and I have worked very hard for the last 10 months to arrive where we are. To get any sort of recognition is humbling and exciting.
Vesticator is a product that simplifies investing decisions for the 'Average Joe' investor. Using industry standard formulas, Vesticator allows a user to be alerted when there is a buy or a sell signal for any stock that they are interested in. Our mission has been to focus on and target the average investor by giving them a tool that can help them make a technically based investment decision.
Before this all began, Scott Taylor (the other co-founder) and I would sit around talking stocks and investing all the time. We started digging into technical analysis and stock indicators and trying to figure out how all those smart investors know when to make the decisions they make. Both of us love crunching numbers, spotting patterns, and looking for trends, so technical analysis was a natural fit for us with exciting potential. We started trying to figure out how we could make a product for ourselves that would email us when an indicator signaled on a buy or sell condition. Our Entrepreneur genes kicked in, and from that idea a product emerged: Vesticator.
We have been entirely self-funded. With the help of BizSpark's toolset and licensing, we have been able to get to where we are by just the money in our wallets.
We intend to keep everything self-funded, so at this point, we are not currently seeking outside financial resources. But as our needs grow, we may change our strategy.
We joined BizSpark several months ago. It is a fantastic program and has increased our productivity in ways that cannot be measured. With the access BizSpark provides to Microsoft Technologies, we were able to build a solid foundation on which to deliver our solution.
We make it possible for our users to participate passively in following market trends. There is no longer a need for them to analyze charts and graphs all day, which is time consuming and can be intimidating for many small-time investors. Now, a user can log into our site, select a few stocks they are interested in buying or selling, chose an indicator, and finally select a destination where the alerts can be sent.
We sell information. We sell a way of delivering information at times when immediate action in critical. We deliver this information through electronic communication via email and SMS messaging.
We believe our uniqueness comes from our goal to simplify things for the end user. We have been researching our competitors and have taken note of their target audience. We believe our target audience is being neglected by the current host of products in the market.
Our target market is small-time investors who don't know, or don't want to have to pay attention to, the technical analysis side of investing. They are the investors like we used to be, and in some regards, we still are; investors that don't day trade and just want to hold a few stocks in their portfolio. They take their investing seriously and want to make smarter decisions.
We intend to first establish ourselves in the market. After that we hope to start expanding our product into more Web 2.0 features that allow for investors to discuss strategies using indicators of their liking. At this point, we have been so excited about all the ways we can expand Vesticator. At this point we have not considered the international market.
We currently have three employees and one part time contractor we use. Two of us are software engineers.
At this time, we do not have the capital to hire.
We are leveraging the full suite of Microsoft technologies including; Windows Server 2008, SQL Server 2008, .Net 3.5, etc. Some of the reasons we chose to leverage these technologies were: security, ease of use, increased productivity, and in the end they are just fun to play with.
I have been a part of many projects that never saw the light of day. From every project, I took knowledge and have tried to turn it into wisdom.
Starting with a business plan is extremely important, and review it every week or two. This has helped us keep focused on our target market and stay on task. That was the best advice we followed and we believe it has worked very well for us.
With the market in the current state of uncertainty that it is in, we have been doing a great deal of analysis. Not only are these stock indicators incredibly accurate and helpful, but we believe that now is a great time to take advantage of a product like Vesticator. We believe that using technical analysis in a time like this, can remove the emotion from the decision making process. This information is certainly available outside of Vesticator, but that generally involves doing the work yourself. From experience we can tell you that watching the charts and price fluctuations day in and day out can bring strong emotions into play. Especially now, taking a passive approach to investing, by using Vesticator, can help an investor make solid investing decisions.

Fishkind Commentary: Florida Housing Market to Top the Nation in 2014
By John Davis
A recent report from the California-based Home Buying Institute predicts Florida's housing market will top the nation in 2014 out performing markets out West including Las Vegas and Phoenix. The report comes at a time when housing inventory in Southwest Florida and other regions of the state is low. Economic analyst Hank Fishkind recently spoke with WGCU's John Davis about the report's predictions and what's behind the increased demand to purchase homes in Florida.

It was not without surprise that Team Sauerland found out about Mogens Palle´s latest comments in the media. The Danish promoter had voiced his delight about not winning the purse bid for Mikkel Kessler´s WBA super middleweight title fight against top-ranked German challenger Danilo Haussler, stating the bout could hurt the sport of boxing in Denmark..
If it was such an unspectacular fight, why would Mogens travel all the way from Copenhagen to Panama to join the purse bid? Sauerland managing director Chris Meyer said. He should be a fair loser and accept the result. He should also honour the WBA´s ratings where Danilo Haussler is the number one.
Team Sauerland won yesterday´s purse bid, and Meyer revealed the fight will either be staged in Denmark or Germany. We still have unfinished business with Mikkel Kessler after he defeated Markus Beyer in October 2006. Now is the time for Haussler to settle the score. We are very proud to promote this special fight, he added.

Spanish Word of the Day Archive
Tuesday June 18, 2013
espalda, noun:
La espalda is used to refer to people's backs.
¿Me pones un poco de crema en la espalda?
Can you put some suntan cream on my back?
Me duele la espalda.
I've got backache.
When we're talking about parts of the body in English we tend to use words like 'my', 'your', 'his'. But in Spanish these words are usually used with the definite article, in this case la/las.
It's very often used in the phrase de espaldas:
Estaba tumbada de espaldas en la arena.
She was lying on her back in the sand.
Estaba de espaldas a mí.
She had her back to me.

I have been using "To whom it may concern," so frequently to the same recipient, I feel like I'm abusing it.
You know that in business and formal letters and emails, letter salutations are very important when addressing someone you are inquiring to. Upon checking for more info about this, I see there are plenty of other salutations I can use, like "Dear" or "Dear Sir or Madam", or even a simple "Hi".
But for my problems I'd like to inquiry, I want anyone to help solve my issues. In that case, should I continue to use the "To whom it may concern" salutation?

What start-ups need to consider? Where to get access to information? What events they can consider to attend?
One of the most important challenges for board members is to build a foundation of trust - with management, the investment community, regulatory agencies and the public. The stakes are high and the margin for error is low. While new standards are emerging, one thing remains clear: the responsibility for adopting sound governance practices has been placed squarely on the shoulders of corporate directors and officers.
Using KPMG's Board self-assessment framework, IARCS professionals have analysed leading governance practices and can leverage this learning to help your board assess its governance practices in the context of the business environment and your company's key business risks to determine whether the board is positioned to fulfil stakeholder needs.

Dear Dr. Bill,
I have a 4-year- old daughter at home. Her father and I were divorced when she was a baby, but we've maintained good contact and my daughter adores her dad. But now my ex-husband is dying and I don't know how to prepare my daughter for this. She knows he's very sick, but how should I help her through this traumatic situation?
Dear Michelle,
I'm so sorry to hear about the impending loss of your ex-husband. Even though you have divorced for several years, I'm sure his death will be difficult for you as well as your daughter.
Very young children don't really have the capacity to understand abstract concepts like life and death. It's likely your daughter may not fully understand what is happening to your husband, and that she won't be able to understand the permanence of his death after he is gone.
It's important to remember that your daughter will look to you for "cues" about what emotions to feel and how to respond. I believe you should be honest about your feelings and acknowledge your own grief.
Also, let your daughter know that you understand that this is a very confusing and sad time for her.
If your ex-husband is a Christian, you can assure your daughter that her daddy is going to live forever with Jesus, even though she won't be able to visit him or talk to him after he dies. You might read bible passages to her about God's promise of eternity for all who believe in Him.
Also make sure to allow your daughter to ask questions and discuss her fears about this situation. An excellent book that will help you is "Someone I Love Died" by Christine Harder Tangvald.
Thanks for writing, Michelle. If you have a question for me about family issues or Christian living, click the "Questions" tab on the Culture Connection page.

New from T'ruah
Peering Outside the Camp
A d'var Torah for Parashat Naso by Rabbi Michael Lezak
"Joseph's master had him put in prison…but even while he was there in prison, God was with Joseph." -Genesis 39:20-21
Bulletproof glass separates me and my congregant. David [not his real name] and I sit opposite one another, in identical, soundproof, cinder-block visiting cubicles at a prison an hour's drive from my home. He's wearing a loose-fitting prison-orange v-neck with a black crewneck underneath. As our eyes connect, we smile. He reaches for the gray plastic phone attached to the wall on his side. I reach for mine. "Hi David, it's really good to see you."
"Rabbi Lezak, thank you so much for coming. Tell me how you've been. How's your family? How are things back at the temple?" Months behind bars had not dimmed the menschy light that I recognized in David when we first met many years prior. On the tabletop in front of him sat a ballpoint pen, a yellow legal notepad, and a soft-bound JPS Tanakh.

Did Florida's Bush Overreact Over Alberto?
By Tom Brown
MIAMI – Did Florida Gov. Jeb Bush cry wolf this week by declaring a state of emergency even before Tropical Storm Alberto created one? Maybe, but maybe not, say disaster experts.
Alberto, the first cyclone of what is expected to be a busy 2006 Atlantic hurricane season, was advertised as a potentially deadly monster. But it turned out to be a wimp.
Bush, younger brother of President Bush, was clearly unwilling to take any chances after last year's Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans. So when forecasters warned that Alberto could become the year's first hurricane, he put Florida under a state of emergency and 20,000 people were ordered to evacuate their homes.
Disaster experts said the governor, who has been touted by his brother as a possible president-in-waiting, was probably right to err on the side of caution.
"The problem is this is Mother Nature," said former New York Police Department Commissioner Bernard Kerik, who gives Bush and his team of emergency management officials high marks for their level of disaster preparedness.
Encouraging residents to panic over mere tropical storms, or even weak hurricanes, which pose only a moderate threat can have consequences, disaster experts say. The next time a storm comes through, residents suffering "storm fatigue" may ignore the warnings to get out of harm's way.
"I think what it does is send the wrong message," said Norris Beren, executive director of the Emergency Preparedness Educational Institute.
"We're going to get hurricane fatigue coming into play very quickly. The next time it happens … people are going to say, 'Ah hell, I've been through this before. I'm not doing this again."'
But caution was more prudent, said Paul Ruscher, an associate professor of meteorology at Florida State University, given the uncertainties in forecasting the potential intensity of storms, and even in plotting their most likely course.
"Even though they've been rather numerous in the last couple of years, in general they're rather freakish, unusual rare events and we don't have the luxury of a huge sample of these storms," he said.
State officials and disaster experts said Alberto turned out to be a good practice exercise for Floridians as they and other U.S. coastal dwellers face what is expected to be a busy six-month hurricane season.
Ruscher said officials were right to fear Alberto because it was approaching a low-lying area of Florida's Gulf Coast that is particularly prone to flooding, or storm surge.
Ruscher acknowledged, however, that Bush had run the risk of "scaring the bejesus out of the public," for a whimper of a storm.
