Label and Packaging Materials for Cheap
I should probably learn how to multi-task but I have been getting caught up in things too much lately. I hate when I get a single-track focus on my mind, and then I forget about other stuff I am supposed to be doing. It is annoying in that it has happened to me a few times in the recent past. Anyway, I am shipping a lot of stuff to the 99012 area and I need to restock on some supplies soon. I am running low on some packaging materials and shipping labels as well. Well, I mean the paper that I use to print sticky shipping labels on. I am running low on that stuff.
I am thinking that I should probably look into a new supplier for this stuff, because it does not seem like I am getting the best prices in the world currently. I think that I should look online, because if I am going to find the best prices, I am probably going to find them online somewhere. I have had a long week, and i probably should place an order for some new supplies before I go home for the week.
But I really just want to pack up and now and go home. It has been that kind of week. I know I should be responsible though, so first I will do a bit of digging and see if I can find a place that has better prices than what we have been paying in the past. If I am not able to do that, then I guess I will just have to settle for the old prices and place an order for the supplies we need. Then I'll turn out the lights, gather my things, and head home to try to enjoy the weekend.Just Click Here
Helping My Mother Continue Independent Living in Her Home
My mother has been in great health all of her life. Now that she is nearly 80 years old, her body just doesn't want to work the way that it used to. About three months ago, I had to begin talking with her about moving her into an independent living home. This was one conversation that we never wanted to have with each other, but since she had fallen three times in six months, I knew that we had to do something different.
Instead of jumping the gun and finding an independent living home for her, we decided to start looking for ways that we could increase her safety while she remains living in the home that she has lived in for the past fifty years.
I found out about all of the different gadgets that could help us keep her safe. These little gadgets can be used to alert me, the law and an ambulance if or when my mother falls or feels ill. I have seen the commercials that tell stories of elderly people lying on the cold, hard floor for hours, if not days, because they cannot pick themselves up. This was exactly the scenario that I wanted to avoid.
After talking with my mother, her doctor and a company that deals with safe independent living, we decided exactly what to do for her. She was going to stay in her home and use one of these medical alert devices and I would hire a care nurse to visit her once a day while I was at work.
Knowing that my mother continues to live in the home that she loves so much is a blessing. She is happy and I feel so much better about her being there all by herself when I cannot be there to check on her.Just Click Here
A Great Tool for Saving Lives
Most people have probably heard of a defibrillator, and some have probably even seen one in use. However, even though the concept itself is not necessarily hard, using one of these tools is not something to take lightly. While in the right hands defibrillators for schools can be a lifesaving tool, in the wrong hands it can just make a situation worse than it already was. The bottom line is that training and knowledge about these products will be almost as important as having the products available in the first place, so training should not be overlooked in any case.
Of course it is not just about the training either, as the product itself has to be easy to use and reliable in all situations. If someone is expecting to use a tool to save another person, they should not have to question whether the product is going to operate properly or if they need to be concerned about its function before starting. Sometimes there are only minutes to spare in dire medical emergencies, so having the right tool that performs consistently and reliably is of the utmost importance regardless of what it takes to achieve.
Of course the best part is that with these solutions, not only do you get products that are well designed, reliable, and accurate, but they are also surprisingly affordable and convenient. This company has done everything possible to make this the best solution out there, so there really is no need to think twice before trusting them in any medical situation no matter how stressful or scary it may be. Of course we all hope that will never occur, but the bottom line is that not everything can be controlled so having the peace of mind to know any situation can be handled with confidence is crucial.Just Click Here
Buying a Racing Horse is Now Open to More People
Why just bet on a horse in a horse race when you can actually own one? My grandad asked me that. He has been a part of the top local horse racing syndicates as far back as I can remember. He has owned several horses over the decades. He likes to use one of the clubs so there are no surprises. If you just buy a horse completely on your own, you need a manager as well as a place to keep the horse. You also need to hire a vet, buy food, arrange for exercise and hire a jockey to race the horse. Oh, and you have to have a manager who can arrange races too.
If you go with the best of the horse racing syndicates, you get all of that covered under the cost you put up to buy your horse. No hidden or surprise fees if you go with a good syndicate. It all depends on what you want, how much you want to invest and the quality you want out of a club that will manage your thoroughbred horse for you. Some of these horses have bloodlines that go back to the early days of organized horse racing. A strong pedigree is a must if you want to buy a horse.
Ownership through the horse racing syndicates is much more viable to the average person than it is to do all of the work and have the infrastructure in place yourself. The best horse racing clubs will care for the horse and manage it in a very professional manner. The updates you get from week to week and the access to see the horse go through its training are indicators of how good the club you joined is. If you ever thought of investing in a race horse, now might be the time to get involved.
The Vulnerable Feeling of Aging
As I watch my parents grow older with every passing year after the loss of my grandmother three years ago, I've come to realize that the effects of aging seem to happen far more rapidly and with more serious difficulties whenever an illness occurs. Yeah, I read and hear about the stories of that 100 year old man who has never been sick a day of his life or that 100 year old woman finishing a marathon but these men and women are exceptional exceptions. I recently had to hire carers at home for my mother who can't bear the idea of living in a elderly 'center'.
I loathe that so many of these places use the word 'center'. Why don't they use home, like retirement homes? It's what they should be seen as! The idea of a center sounds so institutional as if it's a place which isn't a home, but not a hospital, but lacking the warmth that the idea of a home can offer. This is why my mom is terrified of going into one of these places. In her eyes she sees it at a place that she is being sequestered to in order to die out of sight.
It might be irrational of her but I partially agree with her. I can understand why she would feel that way if I put myself in her shoes; I wouldn't want to live in a place that considers itself a 'center' for the elderly. No, I want to be in my home being cared for if it came to that. If I have to die anywhere at all, I want it to be somewhere that I am going to be comfortable and feel that I am safe. The idea of dying around strangers makes me feel so very vulnerable.
Shouldering the Burden of the Internet
Being given one of the employee engagement surveys has made me consider whether or not the company is beginning the process of hiring new people or phasing out an entire department. Due to the nature of our job, we have to deal with a constant amount of stress. I can't go into details regarding what they do but sifting through the sheer amount of data that we're provided with, much of it being sensitive data (legally obtained, mind you), can be profoundly psychologically stressful. Most of us have to see a therapist as mandated by the company at least every three months.
It's important that we are sound of mine while we work. It's not like that they are going to fire us because of any stress but if we do experience a long term amount of emotional issues, they could revoke our security status. I don't blame them - some of the things that I have seen have threatened to unhinge me and I know more than one individual who has been let go or simply quit because they were unable to handle the often times gruesome nature of the data that we see on a near daily basis. It's hard for anyone to do this job. I'm glad they provide the therapy.
And yet, it is even more disturbing that this kind of job is even necessary. The Internet is a terrifying place with nobody to 'police' it. Even users themselves don't do a very great job of policing it - sure, Anon and other groups exist as some sort of deterrent for some groups that would share this obscene material but they have different targets in mind. What the Internet really needs is a vigilante group to help take down rings that we monitor to help share the burden that we shoulder the most of.
Getting Broken Car Keys Fixed is a Much Bigger Deal Now Than It Was Years Ago
Probably about a decade ago for car owners it was not a big deal if you had broken car keys. It was easy and cheap to get replacement car keys. Then as technology advanced, car keys became much more complicated. The first new ones had actual metal keys with a remote door opener built onto them. Then security upgrades had the new keys have a built in chip that, if not present and programmed correctly, would not allow the car to run. They have fuel shut off systems built in that, if the right chip is not on the key, your car will only start for a couple of seconds before shutting off.
Other new car keys may not even have an actual key. It just may be a fob you carry with you. Proximity unlocks the door when you pull the handle, and you have a pushbutton start. You never have to actually take anything out of your pocket or purse. The theme with these new systems is that if you end up with broken car keys, it will cost a fortune to have them remade at the dealership where you bought the car. This why there are other businesses coming about that offer the service at a discount.
People thought that they had to go to the dealership to get a replacement key programmed to work with their car. That is not true. All you have to do is prove ownership, and you can get a new key or fob programmed to work with your specific vehicle. You also do not have to pay the exorbitant dealership pricing on replacement keys. There are companies that do key reprogramming, key replacement and they will handle vehicle lockouts too. They also make copies of keys. Most cars only come with two keys, but you may have a third driver that needs a key, or you may have lost a key.
Started Working at This Parachute School
Started working at this parachute school, doing the same thing that I did with the U.S Army where I was at Fort Bragg and I supervised one of the teams of people who packed parachutes. The only real difference in this is that I am in the UK and they have tandem skydiving here, which is a slightly different thing. The technique is pretty much the same, but you obviously need more of a parachute for twice as much weight. I guess there is probably a weight limit on how big the other person can be, but all of the instructors are relatively slender. Of course in the 82nd Airborne we dropped a lot of big stuff. We packed parachutes for big palettes containing all sorts of things. You have to supply a lot of places from parachute drops and that was a huge part of the jump. In fact they do this stuff with a tremendous amount of precision now. It is a science to put a huge palette exactly where it is supposed to be.
This is routine, but of course you want to make things perfect and it has to be perfect each and every time. In the Army we know who packed every chute and you do not want to have one that you packed come back after a failure. It is one thing if it fails because of the cargo, that can happen on occasion. You do not want to have a failure that leaves a man in free fall. The guy has a reserve chute and one time there was a need for it on one of the chutes that I had packed. I definitely did not like to hear that, but they determined that the failure was related to the equipment not working.Just Click Here
Finding Elite Horse Trainers for Racing
A few months ago, I won a substantial bet that I placed on an underdog in a horse race. I do not want to disclose exactly how much money I won, because that is not really anyone's business. However, it was more than enough to purchase a young horse, that I intend to raise to be a race horse one day. But before it can become a race horse, I need to find racehorse trainers that are extremely good at their job.
I am looking for the elite of the racehorse training community, because I really want for my horse to win some races. I know it is going to be expensive to get the horse trained for racing, but I am more than willing to take on the costs. I have always wanted to own my own horse, and more specifically, a horse that ran in races. However, it was never really feasible in the past. I thought it was appropriate to get one, after I bet on an underdog though. I bought a horse that has a bit of an unproven lineage, but I do think that it can become a champion. It is going to be an underdog too, but with the right training, it can grow up to be a champion.
I wish that I could ride the horse in a race personally. However, I know that I weigh too much to be a jockey, and besides, there are not any horse owners that ride their horses in races. I just think it would be fun. But of course, I am not even very good of a rider, and I would only serve to hold my horse back. I have been looking at this one farm, that looks promising as a place to get my horse trained.Just Click Here
Handing Down from One Generation to Another
I knew that when my grandma wanted me to go to over to her house that I was going to have to spend some time looking at her vintage jewellery and taking what I wanted because it was really important for me to do so. There are a lot of people in the family that say that my daughter and nieces should have a few pieces and I agreed. However, I was going over to help her get rid of stuff and it was important to me to be able to go and help her determine what was worthless. My grandfather also passed away quite a bit ago and she still has to go through his clothes and it is going to be very hard for her. I do not know if she will ever be able to get rid of things, I am hoping that she will be able to.
I was speaking with a few of my friends and they told me that I should be able to go and speak with an appraiser as some of the pieces from the 1930s, even fake, might still be worth something. I want to be able to speak with people open and honestly about what is going on with the pieces. I just do not understand why people do not come and help her clean out the stuff if they are so worried about letting certain people have things. If they really cared then they would be coming to help us go through all of the stuff. This is how I feel and how she feels so I will take what I want and I do not think that another person will even know that some of the stuff is missing. It is not worth it to fight about or over.Just Click Here
Bagging Instead of Boxes is Cheaper
I was listening to many people that said that they were going to start using bags to send out the non fragile items that they sold in their online stores as it was cheaper than actually using boxes. The business owners told me that they were going to invest in a washdown vffs bagger as they heard that it was a lot better than having someone sit there and trying to figure out what size bag is best. I did not want to have any room for human error on my assembly line so I too decided that I was going to go and spend some time with the different sales people that were going to go and show me how this machine could save me time and money and I knew that this was going to be a great business deduction this year. My family told me that it was going to be really great for all of us to be able to go and use this for our new assembly line.
My dad told me that he was also looking into some other new machines from the same company and they were also going to help the workers that worked in our warehouse when they were getting the orders ready to ship out the orders to our customers. I used to work with the customers and work in sales but then I found out that our company was expanding and my dad wanted me to work in the warehouse instead where he thought that I was going to have better use there. My dad has owned the company for many years and he is training me to take it over so that he can finally retire as he can now afford to, I am looking forward to the opportunity.Just Click Here
Great Satellite TV Deals in Texas
I am going to be looking for a new television provider in the near future. I have exhausted my patience with my previous provider, and I really think that I have decided to switch more due to their poor customer service, as opposed to the service that they were providing me with. I think that I am going to switch to satellite, because I have always been curious as to what it was like to have satellite television. As such, I am looking for texas satellite tv deals and packages that are available for great prices.
I do not want to spend a whole lot of money on a television package. I am not sure what the cut off point would be, but I definitely do not want to spend more than maybe 75 dollars per month, and I would like to spend less than that, if it is feasible. At the same time, I do want to have a rather large selection of channels to watch. I hope that I can figure out a way to get a lot of channels for my Satellite television, but not have to spend all that much money in order to do so.
As such, I am going to have to spend my fair share of time looking at different deals and comparing them, so that I can figure out the one that will work best for me. I hope to make a decision pretty soon, as I have already gone so far as to cancel my previous television service, and at the moment, I do not have any television in my house, which is a weird feeling. I can't remember the last time I did not have access to television, but it was probably more than 5 years ago, at the least.Just Click Here
Fashionable Clothes for People Like Me
I am not the type of person to follow a trend simply because others are doing it. I have my own style, and I refuse to compromise myself at all, even in regards to fashion. I don't like the stores in my hometown that sell clothing because it is either too conservative or just trying too hard to be trendy. Some of my friends wear these clothes, but I just cannot bring myself to buy something that I'm just not feeling. I did a search online for Festival Fashion hoping to find some really cool fashion outlets, and I found the only one that matters to me now.
As soon as I saw the clothes on the site, I knew that it was a store designed just for people like me. The styles were simply amazing. They allow people to showcase who they really are without throwing off any fake vibes. I looked at their jeans and skirts first, since I am usually in one or the other. I found several in both styles that I really liked, so my next mission was finding a few shirts that I could wear with any of them.
I like to mix and match a lot since it means I get more out of my clothes that way. I have no problem wearing a nice shirt with a fancy skirt or a pair of comfy jeans, and the shirts I found on this site are perfect for flexibility like that. I was also able to get accessories there too, which is pretty awesome since the prices are so reasonable that I was able to get more than I thought possible just on my first shopping trip there. It certainly wasn't my last though, as I find myself there every few weeks looking for something new!
We Needed a Bigger House
When my doctor told me that I was having twins, I was beyond happy but also I was a bit worried. This pregnancy was not expected, and we had just purchased a two bedroom house that we both absolutely love. I knew that we would need something much bigger since he uses the second bedroom as his home office. I did not want to move though, and that is when my husband told me to look at different architects in Southeast London to see if any of them would be able to build an extension onto the house without it costing us a fortune.
I thought that was a brilliant idea, and I started looking that same day. I was so excited that we would not need to move, and I wanted to get the extension built quickly. I found one architect that had some pretty amazing pictures on their website, and I knew I wanted to go with them. I explained what we wanted to them, and the quote I was given was definitely reasonable. I knew it would be cheaper to go this route than it would be to buy a bigger house.
We ended up keeping the two bedrooms for the twins when they get older. For the extension, we had three rooms added. The first is a home office for my husband. The second is a master bedroom with us, and also a master bathroom. It was incredible getting to help design this extension, which made it that much more special for us. It did not take them long at all to get it built, and I had plenty of time after it was done to get ready for the girls. By this time, we had known we were having two daughters, and we were ready to get our family started!
My Daughter's School Field Trip
When my daughter told me that she wanted to go on a field trip with her class, I was supportive in most ways but hesitant in a major way. I trust her teachers, and I knew there would be plenty of chaperones along to help the kids with whatever they needed. I also knew that it would be a great experience for her, and the memories alone would make it worth it. My only concern was the coach hire they would be using, because I didn't have any experience with them.
I am not a paranoid person in general, but this is my only daughter and she means the world to me. I already knew that she would be watched over well, but I did want to check out the transportation company that would be getting her and her classmates from their school to their destination over 400 miles away. Since she would be on this coach a good bit for four days, I felt it was within my parental responsibilities to make sure that it was a safe and reliable company that only employed the best of drivers.
I looked up the company online, and I was impressed right away with what was on their website. I liked what I saw as soon as I saw the fleet that they use. Not only was it new and clean, but it looked very stable and safe too. I read reviews from other parents and school administrators, and I was happy with everything I saw. It felt good to be able to give her my blessing for the trip once I knew that she would be in safe hands, all the way from the teachers sponsoring the trip to the driver who would be getting them to all their various destinations on this trip of a lifetime.
Spending Some Time Down by the Shore
Obviously a lot of people could never do what I am doing, but at the moment I have a job where I am basically able to work any place that I want to work. It is pretty much as though I am an independent contractor. All I need is to have a computer and access to the Internet. In fact I need two computers, one of them has to be very powerful in fact and the other just needs to be able to handle graphics. I was a bit worried that I might have left one in a Bristol Taxi, but in fact I had left it in the Hotel lobby and they called me up right when I was about to have a panic attack. The other one was being shipped to the cottage in a moving van. I packed up all of my stuff in a tiny van and hired a friend of mine to move it.
In fact I was able to find this really inexpensive place by the coast just out of Bristol towards Cornwall. It is not right on the Coast, but I can walk to the beach in just about ten minutes at a leisurely pace. It is not a big deal if you are already wanting to get in shape. Of course my plan is to get up each morning and go out for a long walk on the beach. That was not a very practical plan this morning however. In fact there was a rather nasty storm blowing in off of the ocean and it was one of those situations where you have to worry about getting struck by debris flying through the air. I did not need to exercise badly enough to risk taking a flying piece of tree to the dome.Just Click Here
We Must Become More Security Conscious
Lately I have started to become more and more security conscious after I was robbed a few months ago. It was a terrible experience to know that someone had gone through all of my things, that they had access to every part of my life within my home. I resolved to never allow that to happen again and instead focuses on security, buying myself a network of cctv systems to install throughout my house and even outside the house. It might seem extreme but how else are we supposed to protect that which is ours? It is said that for residential crimes they are more likely to prevent robberies. I thought about installing an entire security system in the house but found that it was far too expensive compared to the camera system that I had found. If you want to be able to keep your family safe and secure from those that might seek to violate your right to privacy and right to live, this is the way to do it.
There are other options you can consider exploring but I believe that the decision should be made in part in the context of what kind of place you live in, what sort of crime you are having to deal with and the frequency of those crimes There are simple methods that you can do that will help keep you safe that don't cost money but in the long run you are going to do well if you have some sort of system that is safeguarding you and yours. I will never allow myself to be taken advantage of again - I still have trouble shaking the feeling that they might be able to get back into my house again or that they will see me as weak because they were capable of doing so.
What would happen if someone with O- blood received blood from any other blood type donor?
- What would happen if someone with O- blood received blood from any other blood type donor? Would getting AB+ transfusion be more severe then getting A- or O+? I'm not worried about it happening to me, just curious.
Answer by Duncan The Puppy
Well, there are some blood types that are called "universal" (see link, below) so, depending on what they got, it might or might not harm them. Good luck!... ☺
- My daughter has O positive blood type. I am B postitive and my husband has O positive. What is the significance of having this particular blood type?
Answer by essentiallysolo
blood types are genetically inherited, your daughter is O positive because her father is O positive, most kids inherit their father's blood type. The only significance is that if your daughter ever needs a blood transfusion, she needs to recieve O postive blood.

Some People Just Waste Money
If you are looking for tv deals than this is the time to do it, you can find all sorts of tv deals out there near christmas because they are trying to entice you into buying one for a family member when in reality we normally would not do that for someone on christmas. A tv is a big ticket item but they try to drag you in with that thirty or forty percent off and it is a shame but it actually works all to often on consumers these days. It is a shame that they try to use these tactics on us, but if we were in their shoes we would probably do the same exact thing.
But with the new tv you are going to have to start thinking about whether or not it is time to upgrade your television service to go along with it. I mean you can not have this nice new hd television and then have a telvision service that can not do anything with the hd capabilities. You would think that this would be obvious but so many americans out there have these nice hd tvs and then they are watching their tv in standard definition because they do not really know how the hd works or why it is important. I just want to yell at them that they shouldn't have bought an hd tv if they have no intention of using the hd part of it. It is pretty crazy to think about and I wish that it was not a problem but I work at a repair shop and so many people come in every day and say that their tv must not be working right because everything looks the same, I just look at them in disgust and ask if they are using hd stations. It is insane!Just Click Here

Working Down in the Canary Wharf Area
I am working down in the old historic part of the wharfs. This area used to be the West India Company docks and I am working in the Cannon Workshops area. It is more famous for the financial districts of course, but if you look at the names on the streets you can see where it has been an important part of the commercial aspect of the UK for a long time. I came down here looking for a gym in Canary Wharf at first, but when I was done here I happened to meet this guy who was putting a sign out for a job. I did not really need a job at the time, but I talked to the guy and it started to sound like a really good deal. The big thing for me is that I am not really tied to the office like I was in the past. The money is not any better than the old job.
The big thing is that I have one boss and he is totally not bugging me about any problems. In my old job it was sort of difficult to figure out who I was supposed to listen to. There was a very confused hierarchy and a bunch of people who all thought that they got to tell me what I needed to do. Of course when you have half a dozen people who think they are your boss it is a real problem and I was always saying that some other person told me to do some other thing. Some of the time they seemed to think that I was making stuff up, which I could have. That is because some of these people would not talk to some of the other people and thus none of them knew what the other was doing.Just Click Here
Using Wall Stickers to Decorate a Kids Room Saves Time and Money
Kids are fickle. They go from liking one thing to the next. Then they usually settle into something a bit weird during their teenage years. Then there is college and new likes. Our experience with a boy and a girl have us redecorating a little too often. They want certain colors of paint on the walls, and they want theme linens and curtains. We stopped the expense by picking normal paint tones and linens that are suitable for more than just a passing fad. However, we started using wall stickers to help them express their own decorating desires.
These things are really neat, and they let you redecorate a room in minutes. The kids usually add a few posters and maybe a couple knick knacks to go along with their new room designs, but overall it is far less expensive than a room makeover. The wall stickers are easy to apply and easy to remove. The nice thing is that they are inexpensive enough to get through the quickly passing decorating fads kids go through without breaking the budget. Our girl has had the big wall sticker behind her bed changed three times in the past year. It was far less expensive than repainting and buying new linens, and the big decal that goes on the wall expresses her new tastes that evolve quickly.
Our boy has only had his changed twice last year. He got his original one, then found one of a favorite TV character he likes. He has kept that one ever since. The black vinyl decals are easy to apply and come off without leaving any residue behind. You do not have to redo the wall when you put up a new sticker. You can get them in sizes to fit small spaces or large spaces. You can have more than one in a room if you want too. Usually one suffices since they do draw the eye.

Black paint is the least durable of camera finishes, and, back when these cameras were new, you paid a premium for it! This is why pristine black "vintage" cameras are worth a premium, now. Every wannabe pro with a few extra dollars bought one.
To renew the finish, take the camera apart and begin by stripping the paint off all painted parts. Get your tiny planishing hammer and miniature dolly and repair all the dents and bruises. Dents which can't be raised and roughness from abrasions can be leaded. Spray a coat of primer, bake at about 140f, and rub out any flaws. Spray, bake, and rub a second coat. If this coat is flawless, you can spray and bake a couple finish coats of black. Fill any lettering with the appropriate color lacquer stick and reassemble the camera. Then, never use it because with very little use it will brass all over again.
Or, you can just live with the honorable scars of several decades use. Personally I stick with chrome cameras.

Proposed New Regulation 211 CMR 135.00 – Requirements
Regarding Referrals to Motor Vehicle Glass Repair Shops
Pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 30A and the authority granted to the Commissioner of Insurance under Chapter 208 of the Acts of 2012 and M.G.L. c. 175, §113X, a hearing will be held at the offices of the Division of Insurance ("Division"), 1000 Washington Street, Hearing Room 1E, 1st Floor, Boston, MA 02118 on Friday, June 28, 2013 at 10:00 a.m., regarding the proposed new regulation 211 CMR 135.00 , Requirements Regarding Referrals to Motor Vehicle Glass Repair Shops.
The purpose of the hearing is to afford all interested persons an opportunity to provide oral and/or written comments regarding the promulgation of 211 CMR 135.00. The regulation prohibits insurers, producers, adjusters or third party administrators for insurers from steering or otherwise interfering with an insured's choice of a glass repair shop for the insured's motor vehicle. The proceedings concerning the promulgation of 211 CMR 135.00 are designated as Docket No. G2013-01.
Pursuant to SECTION 68 of Chapter 240 of the Acts of 2010, a small business impact statement is required to be included in this Notice of Hearing. A significant number of insurers, producers, adjusters and third party administrators for insurance companies constitute the Massachusetts businesses included in the regulated industry. Two small businesses were identified as small businesses by the Small Business Administration Dynamic Small Business Search Page; one is a claims adjuster business and one is a third party administrator. Based on Division of Insurance records, however, a significant number of insurers, producers, claims adjusters and third party administrators for insurers could be considered subject to proposed 211 CMR 135.00.
As only two small businesses identified by the SBA Dynamic Small Business Search Page are subject to 211 CMR 135.00, and given that 211 CMR 135.00 prohibits certain activity as opposed to requiring action by the regulated entities, the Division estimates that the projected reporting, recordkeeping and other administrative costs required for compliance with 211 CMR 135.00 are negligible. The Division is not aware of any conflicts between 211 CMR 135.00 and existing Division regulations or existing regulations of another agency or department of the Commonwealth.
Since only two small businesses identified by the SBA Dynamic Small Business Search Page are subject to 211 CMR 135.00, and given the subject matter of the regulation, 211 CMR 135.00 is not likely to deter or encourage the formation of new businesses in the Commonwealth. Since only two small businesses identified by the SBA Dynamic Small Business Search Page are subject to 211 CMR 135.00, and given that the regulation prohibits certain activities and requires no reporting, the Division cannot establish less stringent compliance or reporting requirements for small businesses; establish less stringent schedules or deadlines for compliance or reporting requirements for small businesses; consolidate or simplify compliance or reporting requirements for small businesses; or minimize the adverse impact 211 CMR 135.00 on small businesses.
Any person who wishes to provide oral comment concerning the promulgation of the regulation is requested to file a Notice of Intent to Comment with the Division no later than June 27, 2013 at 4:00 pm. All other persons who wish to provide oral comment will be heard after those who notify the Division in advance. Written comments may be submitted until the record of the hearing is closed. All submissions must be sent to the Docket Clerk, Hearings and Appeals, Division of Insurance, 1000 Washington Street, Suite 810, Boston, MA 02118-6200, or by electronic mail to email@example.com and must refer to Docket No. G2013-01, in the subject line.
Copies of the proposed regulation are available from the Docket Clerk or from the Division's website at: http://www.mass.gov/ocabr/docs/doi/emergency-regulation-211-cmr-153-00.pdf.

[Art Education] Thoughts on Less Experienced Instructors
Hello everyone,
I'm not sure if this topic something commonly discussed, I certainly have never seen it in all the time I've been here.
I was wondering what everyone's opinions (especially those who are/were teachers) are on artists teaching/providing tuition who are younger and lack the experience of older age and more years in professional practise.
Assuming that they're genuinely hard working and not some hack job who's out to make a quick buck off students who don't know better, because the latter doesn't really need discussing.

This kind of question leads to all kinds of sticky questions and answers. First of all how much experience is not enough? What level of student will the teacher be teaching? There are plenty of young teachers with less experience but more energy and translatable passion for the work and especially for teaching. This is one of those questions that really has a lot of variables and is hard to answer in general.

Just my two cents.
Is this kind of like "fake it til you make it" scenarios? Because that can turn ugly really fast if you can't deliver what you promise. That wouldn't be fair to others.

Age is irrelevant, skill level is. As is an ability to explain the what and the why of that skill.

Thanks for your responses.
You're right that the variables are endless, hmmm...
Elwell: Please do share more of your wisdom.
I'm simply talking about someone with less experience but still hard working, so I guess it does imply that some instances of 'faking' maybe unavoidable due to less experience.
A 21 year old guy who's been spending all their time honing their drawing skills isn't likely to have the life experience or industry experience necessary to teach, no matter how good they may be.

Pretty sure Rembrandt was had his own studio he taught at at like 22 or something, same with Van Dyck at like 19 or something. Might not be exactly right in terms of numbers, but there is a history of skilled young artists who would teach. And for a more contemporary example, Jeff Watts started teaching at around 20/21 I believe (don't think it was called Watts Atelier at that point, but was more of a precursor to it).

I don't think you can make a blanket judgment. It depends on too many things. In particular, WHAT is the teacher teaching? How much do they know about the subject they're teaching? And how good are they at communicating it?
If someone is teaching, say, color theory or life drawing, they don't need "industry experience", they just need to know enough about color theory or life drawing to be able to impart useful information on those subjects, and they need the communication skills to do so. And that's it, really. Doesn't matter if they're 20 or 80. I've had young teachers who were good at what they taught, and old ones who weren't, and all sorts in between.

Usually the teacher pulls in people who have less ability as students so it doesn't really matter the teachers ability as long as what they teach isn't flat out wrong. A good teacher with limited skills will teach all they know. The student moves on once they get all they can from that teacher.

Teaching is a skill, which takes some time to develop through theory and practice. In general, it takes about 10 years to be good at teaching, animation, illustration, concept art, programming <insert your favourite skill here>. Being a skilled artist doesn't necessarily mean you're a skilled teacher. I usually take it with a grain of salt if a school promotes itself by stressing that all teachers are experienced artists: they might as well be crappy teachers.
On top of that, the people I have met over the past 30 years that are both skilled professionals at art, mathematics, or computer science, and teaching, can be counted on the fingers of one hand. As a result, most skilled professionals are pretty bad teachers. The exceptions to the rule are true diamonds...

I agree with QueenGwenewre.
HunterKiller. If you feel like you are less experienced than others, but people are still interested in what you do know. You are still in the green and not putting anybody on. The more experience and services you can provide, the higher price you can reasonable command.

A factor that people might not be aware of in these situations is that sometimes teachers, especially those with industry experience, might be sharing insight and offering direction that the student can't quite grock yet (grock is an old person term for grasp). A bit like a carrot on a stick, leading the student a bit and encouraging their own discovery. To the student it might look and sound like BS or that the teacher is clueless...until they reach that awareness, which may be some years later. Just my two cents.

Upon leaving school, my experience at my local art college was with teachers who must have been teaching there for 30-40 years. Their idea of teaching art was to give the students something to draw and then go into another room to read a newspaper and drink coffee. This was pre-internet and these days the idea probably sounds ridiculous, but thanks to their "experienced teaching" it was another eight years before I discovered that there were techniques to drawing which could be studied and it wasn't something you were just supposed to make up as you went along and be naturally good at or not. When I first opened a Loomis book my eyes nearly fell out of my head.
Older doesn't necessarily translate to wiser, and I think sometimes younger people have their own advantage in teaching, as young people are more likely to have energy, drive and enthusiasm. So I think as long as they have the knowledge and skills and the communication ability to convey them, anything else is an optional bonus.

I remember when my Junior year painting teacher was ranting on and on about "color shapes" most of us students thought it was a waste of time and were all like "what's he going on about, color shapes, what? Come on, show us how to do cool slick rendering and stuff!" Years later I was painting and it clicked "hey, color shapes, that IS what I'm doing here, isn't it... Is THAT what he was talking about!"

Thanks very much to everyone's great responses, and I think my question has been thoroughly answered.
I'm sure there are many young artists/students visiting this thread and I thought maybe it would be helpful if we take the thread in a different but relevant direction with how to spot bad teaching.
Birkeley already chimed in with "teachers who leave the class to read newspapers and drink coffee."

My personal contribution is teachers who don't recognize that all students are unique, and what works for one may not work for another. Teachers should teach principles through techniques; the latter are not necessarily the same, in detail, for each student. This one is actually a dangerous one, as it is a tiny little step from here towards students complaining that "my teacher doesn't see how great I am, I am even more unique than all of the others, my talent is too great to handle for this guy!"

Bad teachers: teachers who spend 90% of their classes evangelizing for PETA instead of talking about the subject they're actually supposed to teach.
Also teachers who walk into class, glance at the assignments we've put up for review, yell "This is all shit!" and storm out. (Okay, in that case the teacher was having a... little moment. He was mostly rational the rest of the time.)
Also teachers who just want to talk about themselves and can't be bothered to pay much attention to the students - this is especially bad if they're supposed to be coaching students in assembling their final portfolios.
And of course bigoted teachers are always a problem. We had a couple of notoriously sexist teachers who basically ignored the female students. Not cool, man.

teachers who just trying to make money. Good teachers teach because they love to teach and will give you all the information you can absorb, bad teachers string you along to wrestle every penny they can out of you. Another example of this is someone who is very successful in their field and is paid a lot of money by a school to be a guest teacher but they really have no interest in teaching or don't even want to really be there.
teachers who can't make it in the profession they are teaching and so are just bitter and worthless. This is not the same as people who love to do something but never wanted to do it as a profession but like to teach it.

I got asked to work with students at TAD and was very skeptical I A. knew anything useful or B. could teach it even if i did. I still feel that way, but fortunately the students are all extremely hardworking and we have a pretty good time, and the work looks really good.
I tell them what I know, that I think Id like to have known about, ie networking, making money, useful methodologies for generating ideas or working efficicently organizing projects. Plus the usual photoshop hotkeys or 3d concepts.
but most of the time we talk about the work and the topic. people bring in videos or talk about their own experience, and often I learn a lot from them.
I feel more like I'm chairing a meeting than teaching younglings, cos theyre all the same age as me more or less and many of them are my mates. And 1 year in, Im a little more confident and less stuttery (a bit) but its still super fun.
Elwells reminiscence about wearing a suit made me chuckle and nod; i made a little set behind my desk so it looked like my office was full of cool design stuff and books haha lol!!

One of my teachers started teaching right when he finished his master degree at 26, he was pretty darn good, and he was better teacher than others i had with more years of experience under their belts.. So, even though you get a really young teacher at some point.. it might just surprise you how much you can learn from them.

During a heat wave, how much should I water and at what time of the day (or night)?
>Pat Callahan,
Panorama City
It depends on what you are watering. In scorching weather, a lawn should be watered in the morning every day except the days you have it cut. You do not want to mow wet grass since doing so results in an uneven looking lawn and dulls the lawnmower blade.
It also takes a lot longer to mow through grass when it is wet, whether from irrigation or morning dew.
If you have spray sprinklers, you should water your lawn 10 minutes a day.
However, these 10 minutes should be divided into two irrigation applications of five minutes each. The reason for this is that, after five minutes, the microscopic pores in between soil particles become full of water. It takes a full hour for the water applied during five minutes of spray irrigation to drain through the soil.
Let's say you have three spray-irrigated lawn areas. You would program your time clock for two watering cycles, an hour apart, with each area set to water for five minutes in each cycle. For example, you could have the sprinklers come on at 4 a.m and 5 a.m., in which case they would shut off at 4:15 and 5:15 a.m.
If your lawns are watered by slow-moving rotary sprinklers, you will have to increase the irrigation time of each area to 15 minutes per cycle, since rotary sprinklers deliver water three times slower than spray sprinklers. Thus, each lawn area watered by slow-moving rotary sprinklers requires 30 minutes of irrigation per day during hot weather.
In our dry climate, you can safely water any time after the sun goes down and before the sun rises. Late night or early morning watering is preferred because when plants are fully hydrated and stress free just before the sun comes up, they are most efficient at making sugar, their energy source for growth. The hours from 7 to 10 a.m., before the heat of the day sets in, are most propitious for making sugar in the light-dependent biochemical reaction that drives photosynthesis.
While annual flowers should be watered daily, most perennials, ground covers, shrubs, and trees, especially when mulched, will do fine being watered every other day or less. The best test for determining how often to water is examination of the soil at a 2-inch depth.
Often the soil on the surface is bone dry but, when you dig down an inch or two, it is moist. In such cases, watering can wait.
One of the conundrums of watering are irrigation zones that include both lawn and ground cover, or lawn and perennials, or lawn and shrub beds. In such mixed zones, the ground covers, perennials, and shrubs are typically overwatered since lawn grass requires abundantly more water than these other plants.
Under such circumstances, either the lawn or the plants must be removed and replanted or the sprinkler system redone. The goal is to achieve uniformity of water requirement among the plants selected for each irrigation zone.
Irrigation zones should also be separated by sun exposure. Shade plants demand a watering regime that differs from that of sun plants.
Of course, you can make your life simple by selecting drought-tolerant plants that require little water even during the summer. A mature bougainvillea, for instance, may never need to be watered. Fruit trees planted from 15-gallon containers will require no more than two weekly soakings their first year in the ground and one weekly soaking by their second year.
I once saw a sunny, average-sized front yard (around 25-by-35 feet) that had been turned into a planting of a dozen semi-dwarf citrus trees. This mini-orchard not only provided luscious fruit throughout the year, but required significantly less water than a lawn.
Tip of the week
If you have daylily (Hemerocallis) clumps that are looking shabby, forget about the tedious job of pulling out individual dry or yellowing leaves one by one. You can simply cut the entire clump of daylilies down to the ground. Within two to three weeks, you will have significant regrowth, with fresh green leaves shooting up where old withered leaves had been.
This same procedure works with society garlic (Tulbaghia), fortnight lilies (Dietes) and liriope.

Endogenous variations in the annual growth of trees suggest that similar trends would occur in phyllodes. In comparison to leaves, the characteristics of phyllodes are less well known, hence this study examines the effects of architectural position and age of tree on the phyllodes of Acacia mangium. Phyllodes were investigated on 1-, 2-, and 3-year-old trees from three axis positions within the crown. We focused on the morphological, optical and biochemical traits of the phyllodes. The increase in phyllode area and lamina thickness is more pronounced in the older trees. Leaf mass area (LMA), stomatal density, nitrogen and chlorophyll content increase with tree age. The values of these characteristics decrease from the main stem to the lower branches for the older trees. Phyllode light absorptance increased with tree age whereas reflectance was higher for the upper position compared to the lower position within the crown. Carotenoid content and chlorophyll a/b ratio were higher for the younger phyllodes of younger trees. Increasing tree size induced modifications in the phyllode characteristics which are influenced by both morphogenetic and light gradients within the crown. This study demonstrated pronounced changes in terms of morphological and functional indicators of photosynthetic capacity in relation to phyllode position within the crown and to tree age. These morphogenetic effects on the phyllode characteristics should be taken into account in studies on phenotypic plasticity.

I just update my vimeo with my latest works, check it out:http://www.vimeo.com/30106829 http://www.vimeo.com/30079852 http://www.vimeo.com/30048484 http://www.vimeo.com/30080571 http://www.vimeo.com/30040894 http://www.vimeo.com/30039861
Design by Pablo Moreno. 2011.
Many thanks to Modabot for the interview.
Analog + Digital Graffiti / Type / Texture
The texture that I was keen to execute as a digital visual, was a simulated rough surface that has been sprayed with aerosol. With this in mind, I always seek to put together designs that have multiple uses across the board.
Starting off with a complex looking but basic layout as a pen background, the type and layer fade is all the project needed.
First phase was a template with the letters cut out of card. Initially wanting to do a painted type print, the paint was an incorrect mix and it looked wack.
Second was a mock up on cartridge paper to check the composition. The cut letters were then scanned, including the texture, and the handwriting. The final draft was put together in layers, with colour content added for the aerosol look and minor special effects. It would have been cool to use canned paint for the entire piece, nevertheless an enjoyable project and one to push forward.
'Lacerate Media' / Texture / Art
As a reflection of last months site journal post, the 3 images here are the test pieces.
They are mixed method pieces, with the final image being the preferred quality of finish.
As design is a test of ability, the main grind is in finding the easiest and most effective way to do something that is usually a complicated process. My concern for when the storefront is live is that there are only new works available and not something that has been generally ripped off or repeated by other artists previously. The third Razors edge is the first store instalment, using my own stock image and elements. Printing is currently external, although seeking to upscale asap and progress with prints for solo shows. Editorial is of great interest, so pushing to learn more in this area also.
'Don't need NO Devil dust' / Ian Brown / Mixed method / Experimental Portfolio
In my opinion one of the greatest Great British singer-songwriters of all time.
Ok, so many may disagree. Whatever. This guy has proved himself to be one of the most influential artists in recent years. From a true working class family, to the lead vocalist of The Stone Roses, he has a celebrated history of perfect lyrics and bold collaborations ( personal artistic favs : UNKLE / ADIDAS / BAPE ) which has seen him rise to the top of the ranks. This does not come easy. A solid solo career setting himself aside from the usual suspects in terms of visual art & video appeal, content instruments, tight, challenging lyrics and awesome depth of character has earned him the aforementioned status.
Having seen him perform, I would say he offers a wise expression as opposed to glitter ball stage gimmicks. This gives him an awesome presence. And of course he is renowned for saying that he needs 'no devil dust' for his confidence. Mr Brown, a true performer, I salute you.
The Invasionism pack is neat. And possibly collectable. So… let's make them count.
The one thing about the Southwest, come hell or high water is the tourism. They come for the historical value and the art. And what more do visitors need more than signs? …more signs… I got a real kick watching some visitors in the city see the already existing signage… then promptly get out a smart phone and internet search the words on the stickers.
Traffic boost!
here are proud KDU members down this way, myself included. The Art Sector itself is always a good source of design gossip / story telling. The who's who and who's doing what or who. So awareness was on the agenda. The education system is what it is. When I studied here in the southwest (Devon & Cornwall), most courses were switched mid-way into something rather more defined by digital medium as opposed to personal creative development. Many students found that the level of teaching was slow and unstructured and poor. This in turn offered a poor attendance by many, who realised that the course detail was far from what they signed up for. I know a few that work in dept stores and no longer sketch, let alone feel that a future in art or design is something to consider. Anyhow, it is refreshing to see that nowadays the various mediums and media are embraced and the frayed edges have now been stitched and ironed out. A thriving community of art and design focused individuals have a grand voice and the best selections of art on display at all times of the year. Hence it now being the Art Sector.
TV Party! – Camila Huerta by Gustavo Brigante
This work was a collaboration with chilean model Camila Huerta for her portfolio. Worked out this piece with total freedom of subject as long as the piece was centered on the main portrait so i had lots of fun working on this. At the time of making this i was also learning Cinema 4d (still am) so i experimented a little with it for this composition and all the rest was worked around with Photoshop.
It's been a while since I updated my page. Probably cause I didn't have much to share. I finished this illustration for Designers Against Child Slavery – An art collective dedicated to raising awareness about sex trafficking. Exhibit is on Saturday, October 1st, 2011 at 7:00 PM – check out more about the exhibit and organization here : www.dacsunited.com
Hello everyone! My name is Adolfo Correa and I'm a digital artist/designer from Santiago, Chile… and this is my first post as a new member of the almighty KDU, I'm so proud to be here amongst such a talented crew and share my stuff with all of you!

Last Friday we celebrated the launch of our 2nd House Guest Artist in the Denham Store in Amsterdam.
After having a local hero, Alljan Moehamad, for the first project, the 2nd in our series of guest artists welcomes STB Tees into the Denham House: a stand alone project by jakenoakes, who traditionally specialises in printed media (mainly books and magazines) often creating limited edition, bespoke publications.
Most recently jakenoakes designed Bill Gold: PosterWorks, the first limited-edition publication for luxury publishing house Reel Art Press (available through reelartpress.com) and co-created a live interactive stage show for Groove Armada.
The DENHAM geometric scissor design has a timeless yet contemporary appeal and was inspired by the works of Sol LeWitt.

Kim Zolciak says she lost $250K on gambling, spent $1240 on scratch off tickets
In addition to a shopping addiction, reality TV personality Kim Zolciak admits her other vice is gambling. She recently lost $250,000 gambling at a casino in the Bahamas. Whenever the gambling bug bites her, Zolciak, 36, packs her six kids into a minivan and drives to Destin, Florida.
Zolciak's latest gambling trip was filmed by a production crew for her reality TV show, Don't Be Tardy.
On the way to Destin, Zolciak spent $1,240 on scratch off lottery tickets. She won a grand total of $36.
From Page Six:
"I love to gamble, but there is no casino here in Georgia, so the only way to get my thrill is to buy scratch offs," said the slim mother of six before revealing she once took a huge hit in the Bahamas losing $250,000.
Her oldest daughters are well aware of their mom's addiction. "You cannot stop her, she gets into the zone," said Brielle. "Especially with her online gambling."
In a short post on the show's official website, Kroy Biermann's wife said gambling is her love.
"In Georgia, there is not a casino, so the closet thing to a slot machine is a scratch ticket! Every time we head to Destin, Kroy and I stop at the same gas station and get our scratch tickets. I am not sure how much I won this time but I think I broke even. It's all in good fun, and I do it responsibly."

<<<< loves the entie fawk outta slot machine. And a blackjack table.
Not 250k worth though. But I do.
Me too @OTB. I took everybody money at Tonk last Sunday. $85 US American dollars. My nephew. Then my sister wanted some and my niece BF too. Paid Dub9 camp fee in cashola Monday morn and put rest into BOA ATM lmao.
Yes you gotta claim your wins on taxes. Casino send you a win/loss statement and EVERYTHING.
OR you can give the lady next to you $50 when your machine starting singing….so SHE can claim it when they come hand pay you. Oh. So she can worry with that **** on her taxes. Oh again.

Twitter eyes music-sharing service SoundCloud: Report
Published on May 20, 2014 6:13 AM
WASHINGTON, May 19, 2014 (AFP) - Twitter is mulling plans to buy the German-based music-sharing service SoundCloud to fuel growth at the social network, the news site Re/code reported on Monday.
The move would be a new effort by Twitter to get back into music after a failed attempt last year to launch a music-finding service.
The report suggested that such a deal, if consummated, would be expensive for Twitter, but would add a company with a customer base of 250 million, roughly the same size as that of the messaging platform.
SoundCloud recently raised some US$60 million (S$74.98 million) in venture capital, which would give the startup a value of some US$700 million according to The Wall Street Journal.
