Dina Marie Rodriguez
Hand Lettering Artist
Why You Should Hire A Hand Lettering Artist
Inspire brand loyalty, increase sales and drive engagement using professionally crafted hand lettering.
There are bountiful reasons why 1000's of companies worldwide are hiring more and more lettering artists like myself. Especially in the field of Advertising, Apparel, and Branding where a design is key in engaging an audience.
I want to help you gain clarity on how a hand lettering artist can create tremendous value for your brand and why it's worth the investment for your commissioned project.
I have the expertise to transform your message into a powerful image that can sell, entertain and inspire. Stop searching though generic graphic design portfolios and hire an artist like me that knows exactly how to create and promote your next creative project.
Working with Dina to design my project was so exciting! Her creative process is thorough, and she carefully considered all of my wants and needs. If you want your business to stand apart from the competition, it is well worth the investment to hire Dina!"

Happy Client Testimonials
What some of my clients are saying about my services
I spent months struggling with different graphic designers trying to get the image I had in my head. After expressing my frustration on social media, I was contacted by Dina and was immediately impressed by her portfolio. We exchanged a few emails, she provided me with a questionnaire to fill out, and two short weeks later I was presented with my perfect piece of hand lettering. I couldn't be more impressed with Dina's professionalism and creativity, and I can't wait to work with her again on my next creative venture."
– Scott Ord / Great Canadian Entertainment
Working with Dina to develop our new graphic has been nothing short of a real pleasure. From the very beginning when I filled out her questionnaire, I could tell that she doesn't just churn out designs overnight. She gets an in-depth understanding of not only what each client's business does, but also their motivations, values, and how they differ from their competitors. She incorporates all of this insight into her design process and it shows through in the final product. I highly recommend Letter Shoppe for all things lettering."
– Kati Heffield / Say Something Marketing
Dina invested hours learning about my brand, mission and style. She was transparent about her process and always kept me involved. It was up to Dina to really translate everything we'd discussed into a graphic, and the end result blew me away! I'm so grateful to have worked with Dina for such a unique illustration."
– Allison Lewis / Brand Scape Communications
Dina was professional, engaged, supportive, and responsive. The hand lettered logo she created for my new business exceeded my expectations, and the support she gave me as I built my business and created a brand, had a direct influence on my website and social media presence. I would highly recommend Dina!"
– Lisa Reitmeier / Paper Tiger Mentoring
The Benefits of Hand Lettering
Original handmade designs
Never again use generic images to represent your organization. Take an authentic approach to design by hiring an artist that builds each letter and illustration from scratch.
Made to attract your audience
Using color theory, design psychology and the intrigue of the handmade, I'll create unique graphics for your brand that makes an honest connection with your community.
Illustrations with a timeless appeal
Never worry about your designs going stale again. Your graphics are designed based on the core values and passion behind your brand not the latest fleeting trend.
Common Questions
Learn more about my process, services and terms
How many clients do you work with a month?
I usually work with one to two clients per month so I can really focus my time on the project at hand without distractions.
How long does a piece of hand lettering take?
The timeline for projects vary between two to four weeks depending on the amount of letters and supporting illustration involved. If you need the project in less than 2 weeks, there will be an added 20% rush fee.
Do I receive full rights to the artwork?
For logo design projects, all rights are included in the price. But for commissioned lettering projects, rights are only available as an additional fee depending on what usage rights you need.
You can pay the maximum amount for unlimited rights or to save on costs, you can choose to have only partial usage rights. Partial rights allows you to use the design only on what applications, locations and duration you need.
For example you could purchase limited rights to a piece of lettering to use just on shirts and posters, to customers in the United States, and for only 2 years.
If you choose to have no rights to the artwork that means you can still use the designs for non-commercial reasons but will need to give appropriate credit when the artwork is posted on publications, blogs and social media.
What does your proposal look like?
You can see a sample of my proposal by clicking here. This will give you an idea of my terms and what key factors I include in my contracts.
Are you available right now for new projects?
Yes! Right now I'm available for your project!

What's your process for creating hand lettering?
You can check out my hand lettering process here or check out this recent case study I created for Paper Tiger Mentoring.
How much does hand lettering cost?
My pricing varies quite a bit but ranges from $600 to $4000 depending on the amount of work involved. I don't charge hourly, instead I charge based on the value you receive from my work. You can read more about Value Based Pricing here.
What's your refund/cancellation policy?
If I decide to cancel the project then your deposit will be refunded back to you at NO CHARGE. Although, if you're the one to end production early, then your deposit is non-refundable and I retain all the rights to any artwork created.
Have any additional questions?
Contact me at email@example.com. I'm here to help in any way I can.

Skip to comments.Plea For Pollard
Posted on 07/18/2002 6:00:50 PM PDT by RCW2001
|Plea For Pollard
|Former Israeli Chief Rabbi Mordechai Eliyahu, who has been very active on behalf of Jonathan Pollard, has asked once again to emphasize the importance of working for Pollard's release from prison.
Rabbi Eliyahu visited Pollard in his North Carolina prison cell at least twice, and has offered to personally intervene with the American government in order to request his release.
In a letter he wrote to Pollard's attorney Larry Dub, Rabbi Eliyahu states:
"In response to the question that others have asked you, namely whether the mitzvah of Pidyon Shvuyim [the commandment to redeem captives] is relevant in the case of the above-named [Jonathan Pollard]:
"Those who ask, should themselves be asked how they could have any doubt. It should be clear that this is a great mitzvah [commandment] and that it is the obligation of all Israel, no matter where they may be, to do everything that they can to assist and to aid with all their strength and all their means to free the honorable Jonathan Pollard, may G-d watch over him and protect him, who sacrificed himself for the good of and in order to save all of the nation of Israel..."
If he survives the hanging? Throw him off the cliff again.
I would think you pick up lots of oddball articles. What with that tinfoil hat of yours and all.
I would think you pick up lots of oddball articles.
Associating the term oddball with any reference to the Liberty is beyond tactless.
It is disgraceful.
LOL. What's disgraceful is the way anti-Semites have glomed on to the USS Liberty event to push their sick deranged agenda.
The +$50K that he earned must have been a great sacrafice. He could have gotten twice that from the former USSR. Some folks just don't know how to market.
As it stands most of the Israelis I know as well as the America Jews I speak with daily, including my family, agree with me that Israel has made some terrible errors...as is the wont of all governments.
Most of those errors were caused by the zealots of the JDL and its ideological forefathers.
You are a kneejerk.
And it would not be much of a stretch LOL. Don't waste your act on me, I ain't buying it.

The Marvel Of The Spirit-filled Life (5 Of 6) by Jesse Hendley
This content is part of a series.The Marvel of the Spirit-Filled Life (5 of 6)
The Holy Spirit
Jesse M. Hendley
Ephesians 2:4-10
October 11, 1907---November 30, 1994
Today we will take up the Holy Spirit in His
individual personality. I want to call your attention
to the fact that WORKS are spoken of much in the Word
of God. There are three things that we are finding
1. We are exalting GOD'S SOVEREIGNTY, and forgetting
to remember the CHRISTIAN'S RESPONSIBILITY.
2. We are preaching GRACE, and forgetting that there
is such a thing as WORTHINESS on the part of the
"That ye walk WORTHY of God, who hath called you unto
his kingdom and glory." (I Thess 2:12)
"And they shall walk with me in white: far they are
WORTHY." (Rev. 3:4) Only the WORTHY shall walk with
Him in white! That the UNWORTHY shall NOT is evidently
3. We are preaching and exhorting on FAITH and
forgetting the WORKS part. These are three common
errors that we are guilty of today. We take the one
side and leave the other. We are taking the "grace"
side and leaving out man's responsibility. Paul said:
"For I have not shunned to declare unto you ALL THE
COUNSEL of God " (Acts 20:27 ), or "THE WHOLE
The FIRST THING I WANT TO SAY IS THAT GOD EXPECTS
WORKS CF EVERYONE OF US; "For we are his workmanship,
created in Christ Jesus UNTO GOOD WORKS, which God
hath before ordained that we should walk in them."
(Eph. 2:10) "We are his workmanship" -- "for good
works" -- "for good works!" We are created then to
work. I have heard men who bend backwards on grace
truth say that we are not created to work. We are
God's workmanship. The first part of Ephesians two
tells us what we were back when we were dead in sins
and walking according to the world obeying the spirit
of the Devil, doing the desires of the flesh and of
the mind, and were by nature the children of wrath.
That is the picture of an unsaved soul. "Wherein in

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I never pressed any charges and I didn't call the police. someone else called the police I didn't press charges and the argument started because of me I got really drunk. I asked the DA if they could drop the charges but they said I couldn't drop the charges
Unfortunately, the matter of choice is not yours. Once anyone reports to police a situation which might involve some kind of criminality, they will investigate and if the elements of a crime are found to exist, they will charge the person who they believe committed it. The DA's office normally does not dismiss DV cases unless for any reason it is determined that they cannot prove the charge(s) beyond a reasonable doubt at trial. Also unfortunately, charges involving domestic violence are relatively easy to prove. Your fiance needs an attorney.
The information provided in this answer is only general shall not be deemed to create an attorney-client relationship.Ask a similar question
CO and most states do not allow alleged victims to "drop" or "press" charges and leave it to an independent and autonomous agency, the District Attorney, to determine if there is probable cause to charge someone with an assault, harassment, or other crime that is characterized as domestic violence. So, you can not get the police or the DA to drop the charges. You can express your desires to the victim/witness advocate with the DA's Office and to the judge in asking to modify the restraining order. The DA is statutorily prohibited from dismissing DV charges if there is probable cause. SO, you need to get him a good attorney. Clifton Black, David Foley, and Brian Boal are all good in the Springs.
The information provided in this answer does not create an attorney-client relationship. If you are interested in his legal services, feel free to call Chris at (303) 409-7635 at his law office in the Denver Tech Center. All initial consultations are free of charge.Ask a similar question

- Wallabies halfback Nick Phipps aims to move on after Test "shocker" in Sydney
- The lowdown: Rugby World Cup 2015
What transpired at Eden Park last week was as much a wake-up call for the Wallabies as it was an ambush in plain sight. A reality check that New Zealand are still the world's best, but we all knew that.
Looking back now with less emotion clouding my judgement, there were a few things that made this game even more difficult for the visitors to win.
Firstly though, you have to give some kudos to the Wallabies and their Rugby Championship win. No one can take that away from them. Wins over No.1 in the world and, at the time, No.2.
The somewhat pleasing aspect was that the victories were by no means polished. There is more in the tank. I do like the way coach Michael Cheika is drilling into the players that each session and each game they are trying to improve.
So what went wrong in Auckland? You could question the selections, but they are internationally experienced so I think that is drawing a long bow. Certainly the knock-on effect from the win in Sydney was a driving factor.
The New Zealand public were livid at the loss and more focused on the why than some of the extras surrounding the game.
Extras such as Richie McCaw playing a record-breaking 142nd Test and his posse of Dan Carter, Ma'a Nonu, Tony Woodcock and Keven Mealamu turning out for the last time at home made for some emotional footy from their side.
Then there was the ground itself. The noise the other night was immense. I have never heard anything like that before.
I am one to say the crowd can't affect you but it would be great to run out to that each time you play. The lift you get would be immeasurable.
Fortunately for all the other teams in the World Cup, they can't transport Eden Park to the UK.
Earlier in the season I stressed the importance of bench players and what impact they have on a team.
For the Wallabies The Rugby Championship was a gold mine. Unearthing bench players who, when they took the field, upped the speed and tempo and closed out games. That's just what Cheika is looking for.
Being a bench player, however, does not necessarily mean that you can control a game from the off. That is the responsibility of the starting XV.
There has been plenty of speculation about who should wear the No.10 for the Wallabies in the UK.
Plenty of criticism was levelled at Quade Cooper's performance on the weekend but, to be honest, I don't think any other five-eighth would have been able to arrest the onslaught from the men in black.
He and Bernard Foley are the two main contenders for the position, with Matt Giteau and Matt Toomua the other options.
I think Foley should be the playmaker to lead the team. Remember, this bloke has just broken 20 Test caps, which is relatively new to the scene, but we are putting all the pressure on his shoulders. He has the responsibility of both running the team and kicking goals.
I think if you asked him about his performance against South Africa and Argentina he would say a pass mark, maybe a little more, but what you have to take into account is that his position cops the onslaught of any team in those opening minutes.
A player who distributes well, understands game management and what looks like the Wallabies mantra at the moment - possession - should occupy the role of pivot.
I did feel for him on occasions in Argentina as communication was lacking. A contributing factor in that, I suspect, stemmed from the responsibility of kicking goals.
He has become quite the sharpshooter and certainly was able to hold his nerve in the Waratahs' breakthrough win last season, but I know from experience that if you miss a couple of shots your mind can start to wander. You question things that should be second nature.
I remember vividly playing a game where I hoped the ball didn't come my way as I felt that if it did I would make an error. That all came back to poor goalkicking.
I have been replaced mid-Test. There is no harm in making a tough decision. The mind is a wicked thing.
So how then does somebody at the helm of the team deal with the stresses of some errant kicking?
Easy. Give the responsibility to someone else. Giteau, Toomua, Beale all can kick goals.
It's a pretty easy solution to a not-so-difficult equation.

I will make three points to back up my statement.
1. Jinbe has nowhere to go in Fishman Island
2. Jinbe has shown that he can fight alongside The other strawhats.
3. Jinbe has connections to people's past (Arlong)
Jinbe is basically an outlaw, The only place he can go is the Merman District but he won't be satisfied staying there. Jinbe is most likely not going to stay on Fishman Island because its going to be destroyed(prediction). Jinbe doesn't seem like the person who is okay staying in a place without human interaction.( though you could make the point he spent two years doing nothing that we know of).
Jinbe could be very valuable to the strawhats, seeing how he has vast experience about the Grand line. His strenght does not seem to vastly outpower the captain (luffy). He will most likely become the Helmsman. Most importantly he adds more diversity to an already diverse crew.

At the inaugural disbursement, it was an evening to remember for the past cricketers, many in the twilight zone of their life.
B K Garudachar and Dr K Thimmappaiah, who made their debut during 1934-35 when Ranji Trophy championship was in its infancy, were literally moved.
"I had thought we all had been forgotten. It's a great honour that we were remembered and recognised," said Garudachar, who was captain of the then Mysore state team.
Expressing deep gratitude, Thimmappaiah remarked that it's not the money (pension) that counts; it's the fellowship and goodwill that do. He recalled how the then cricketers used to travel in third class compartments in trains to play Ranji matches and there was no pocket-money also.
KSCA's finance committee selected "needy" 28 past Karnataka Ranji cricketers for the Rs 2000-a-month pension.
KSCA president K M Ramprasad and secretary Brijesh Patel said the pension scheme is the first of its kind by any state cricket association.
KSCA's pension scheme is different from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) one in that it's given only to needy past cricketers of the state, while the latter's is for all former Test cricketers (Rs 5,000 a month).
Former spin ace B S Chandrashekar was among those who honoured the past cricketers.
Ramprasad and Patel said the KSCA may consider enhancing the pension sum in future depending on its financial position.
Those who received their first monthly pension cheque included L T Subbu, C M Varadarajan, S V Rangaraj, K L Mahesh, K S Viswanath and K Vasudeva Murthy and Mir Najam Hussain, all of whom made their debut in the 1950s.
In a touching statement, Hussain said the pension would see him through the latter years of his life as now he had no source of monthly income.

What is Casual Walking Speed?
Walking speed varies from person to person and is different in males and females( females walk slower than men). It also varies on the type of ground you are walking. Walking speed gets slower as you walk uphills and fast as you walk downhills. Casual walking speed is 2-3 miles per hour.
What Type of Arch Do You Have?
Before you can begin looking at shoes, you need to understand the arch of your foot. This is because you need to find a pair of walking shoes that provide the right support for your feet. If your friend with low arches benefits from a particular model, it will certainly be ineffective for you if you have the arch problem! This is why you need to find out about your own feet.
Take a couple of pieces of construction paper, and lay them on a dry towel in the bathroom. Wet your feet under the tub faucet, and shake. Place each foot on a piece of paper before drying on the towel. If the majority of the foot area is wet, you likely have a low arch. On the other hand, if there is barely a line at the outer edge of your heel and the upper end of your foot, you may suffer from underpronation. Likely, you fall somewhere in between these two. However, this information will help you in selecting the best walking shoes for women with your arch type.
How Do You Move Your Ankle While Walking?
Another issue that will influence the appropriate choice of shoe is the way you balance your weight while walking. Too often, people roll their feet inward or outward, or place too much pressure on the fronts or backs of the feet when stepping. All of these can lead to troubles with your feet, ankles, knees and hips. One way to determine the way you place pressure on your feet is to look at some of your older pairs of shoes. You should be able to see the areas of greater wear. Take these along with you when you have your feet sized and examined to ensure that these patterns are taken into account.
Do You Use Orthotics?
If you use any orthotic device, you need to know how it will work with the shoes that you are considering purchasing. When you go to the store, take them along. If you have not been sized or examined in a while, you may want to have your orthotics checked before purchasing a new pair of walking shoes. That will ensure that you have the most satisfying experience with your new purchase.
Are You Experiencing Bunions or Other Foot Conditions?
Additionally, if you have bunions, gout or other foot conditions, you need to be sure that your new shoes will fit comfortably. Hammertoe and related pains can become considerably worse if you rely upon shoes that are merely supposed to be the correct size.
What Is the Purpose of the Shoe?
There are many different shoe designs today, ranging from those for fitness walking, hiking to walking on for an extended time. If you are looking for the best walking shoes for women for more than one purpose, you may need to purchase one pair for each type of activity. After all, the continued support for stationary activity requires different arch treatment and roll than a shoe that is intended for walking long periods at a time. Investing in the proper footwear for each activity will help to ensure you protect your feet and the rest of your body.
Have You Experienced Foot Injuries?
When you are determining the best walking shoes for women that will meet your needs, you will also need to consider any injuries that you may have experienced that will influence your level of comfort. Have you had surgery on your feet? What about your knees, legs or hips? Have there been broken bones set in these areas without surgical intervention? These things can factor into the health of your feet, and the appropriate choices to ensure your feet are well taken care of during your regular activities.
Do Your Shoes Fit Well and Comfortable?
All you need is a comfortable pair of shoes that fits right on your feet. Your toes should move freely inside the toe box. Look for wide toe box walking shoes if you have wide feet. Your heels should be secure and should not slip off. Laced should fit better than slip on shoes. Most women believe that they know their correct shoe size, and the majority is wrong. The fact is that your feet continue to change throughout your life. Just like the rest of your body, you will need to have it remeasured on a regular basis if you want to ensure that your attire remains comfortable and fits well. When you go to have your feet sized, you should take along any orthotics that you use. Additionally, bring a new pair of socks for the fitting. The sizing should be held at the end of the day. If you have troubles with foot odor, you may want to take some clean wipes and a fresh pair of shoes that you can use just before entering the fitting. Wipe down your feet, and then show off those flip-flops that you're brought back from your tropical vacation? The shoe specialist will appreciate your consideration. Look for APMA approved shoes and replace shoes every six months. Once you have a proper sizing and know about the factors that will influence the appropriate choice of walking footwear for you, you will be able to narrow the search parameters as you find the right walking shoes. Whether you need a pair for work, working out, or playing around with your friends, these suggestions will assist you in making a sound investment in your next pair of walking shoes. Keep in mind; you can also check out which colors work best with your wardrobe while you are shopping!
Before we go into the detail about good brands of shoes for walking, you need to know that running shoes can be used for walking. If you've made up your mind to begin a fitness regime and lose weight by fitness walking, the only thing required is a great pair of sneakers. However, you need to know what type of shoe/sneaker you need. Theses types of shoes are designed for different feet based on arch-type and pronation. Of course, walking does not cause as much impact to your feet as running does. Consequently, walking shoes offer less cushioning in the heel than running shoes. Running shoes are more lightweight and breathable than shoes for walking. Mainly walking in shoes for running can be easier than in walking footwear. This is because running shoes are well padded, lightweight, and breathable. They frequently incorporate built-in movement dynamics, stability or cushioning automation, and adequate adaptability. Here are a couple of tests to determine if a shoe is suitable as a walking shoe:
- Take your shoe by the heel and toe and turn the toe upward. The shoe must bend in at the toe area or some random spot halfway along the arch.
- Turn the shoe sole from the heel to the toe. You want to experience a mild to average resistance; the sole shouldn't limp like a cooked piece of spaghetti.
If the shoe fitted comfortably and passed each test, it is probably a durable walking shoe.
Do you want shoes for fitness walking, casual walking or everyday walking? If you need shoes for fitness, then go with lightweight and supportive cross-training shoe. A cross trainer shoe is effective on a treadmill. However, sports activities like basketball that require sharp side-to-side movements should be avoided. Running shoes are tailored for linear-motion. If you like to go outside in snow, rain or hail, then consider buying a waterproof shoe. Trail-running shoes frequently include waterproof uppers, along with sturdy soles and common support features. If you are using your shoes in a more leisurely manner, your options are broad. Select a shoe type that corresponds to where your majority of walking will be. For example, on a nature path or dirt road, a trail runner or light hiker will do.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST WALKING SHOES for Women
When it comes to long distance walking shoes, manufacturers have incorporated specific technology and design that cater to the needs of individuals wearing them. The following are among some good qualities of excellent walking shoes that will meet your standards.
1. Flexible at the Ball of Foot
To ensure your comfort, you should choose shoes that are easy to twist and bend in the forefront area at the ball of the foot. The shoe should not bend at the arch of the foot. This is important since each time you take a step. Your feet naturally flex as your heel touches the ground. On the other hand, buying shoes that are too hard and stiff may be a real pain to wear. It is possible that your feet will only fight it as you walk.
2. Good Heel Quality
Most people are the heel striker. With that in mind, it is much better to avoid footwear with a large and flared heel that may be uncomfortable to wear. If you can find shoes with a somewhat undercut heel which is slightly elevated, then that may be a good choice for you.
3. Lightweight
You need a lightweight pair of shoes for long distance walking, which can help reduce the stress on your feet.
4. Cushioning
Running shoes require more cushioning than walking shoes. However if you walk a long distance, then you need shoes that provide excellent cushioning.
Just be sure to take the advice of a shoe expert who can observe and evaluate your stride, weight, gait and walking style. These specialists can recommend a good pair of walking shoes that will support your needs while enhancing the quality of step you make.
When choosing walking shoes, always buy well-fitted shoes. The right fit will keep you from getting heel blisters and battered toenails. You won't regret purchasing a walking shoe that fits well. Identifying a good fit is straightforward. Fundamentally, a shoe should be comfy everywhere and tight nowhere, with adequate space to wriggle your toes. Comfortable women walking shoes can be used for work, fitness or inside and around the house.
Determining Your Foot Type
View your footprint after showering or swimming. You may use a brown paper bag or cardboard for this foot-arch test. Feet with low arches will leave a fuller print because it has more contact with the ground. High-arched feet touch the surface at the heel, the toes, and the ball of the foot, but not the border of the foot. Average feet with medium arches are in between those mentioned above two. Determine which category your foot falls into and find the perfect shoe for your foot type.
Walking Shoe Buying Tips
If you want to buy a great pair of walking shoes, then you should go to a specialty store that features this type of product. To get a solid piece of advice from shoe experts, you may be required to walk on an indoor track or treadmill as your stride and gait are observed. Then, you may be asked to try on a few models of walking shoes depending on the right one that suits you. This can help you see and feel for yourself if the footwear is perfect for you.
Most brands of top quality walking shoes cost around $60 to $120. As a rule of thumb, it is best to avoid buying cheap shoes that barely provide decent quality and comfort. Relying solely on the exterior of the shoes is also a wrong move since stylish shoes are useless when they hardly make you feel comfortable as you walk.
In case you wish to buy boots, you can expect to pay more than $100 on an average. This is specifically true when you look for waterproof features that can ensure the dryness and comfort of your feet for hours.
Guide to Trying On Walking Shoes
Before you buy a pair of shoes, you need to try them on to make sure that they fit well. These are some pointers to help you determine carefully which shoes to buy for yourself.
1. Wear socks when you try on different shoes.
If possible, wear the pair of socks you usually wear when you take long distance walks. This way, you can be sure about the actual thickness or thinness of the socks that you will wear with your shoes.
2. Never buy shoes that are a size smaller than your dress shoes.
It is best to try on shoes that are at least a half size larger than your regular dress shoes. Since your feet are likely to swell as you walk, go for the larger size that will not be a pain to wear.
3. Know the best time of the day to try on and buy shoes.
Consider buying shoes right after your walking exercise or later in the afternoon or at night. It is during these times that your feet are slightly swollen from walking. As a result, it will be easier for you to find the perfect size of walking shoes.
4. Inspect not only the exterior but also the interior of shoes.
Check the width of the shoes, so it is suitable for your narrow or wide feet. You should also inspect the inner part of the shoe and look for any rough spots. Avoid these shoes since you can expect to suffer from blisters if you decide to wear these for hours.
To determine if a walking shoe will fit, these two tests will help. Find a slanted surface and stairs: Walk down a slope. As you go down, tread heavily and scrape your feet. Aim for the tops of your toes to reach the front interior of the shoes. Presuming you have already tried the shoes snugly, they should not permit you to shift too far forward. Over time, shoes will stretch and become slightly wider. If your toes can already reach the front of the shoes when they are new, try a different pair. Climb several stairs. If the shoes you are trying passed the first test, you can try them on the uphill stair test. Go up several flights of stair, two at a time, and pay attention to your heel lift. If your heels are continuously lifting-off the insoles more than roughly one-eighth of an inch, you could be in for heel blisters later on. If you are not certain, you can change socks for a pair with better heel padding or use an over the counter insole. It's very important to halt or decrease any seesaw movement of your heels inside the shoes. Repeated heel movement can cause blisters, which will lead to discomfort during your walking jaunts.
Should you buy a walking shoe with a waterproof-breathable membrane?
If you are looking shoes to wear in rain or for trail walking, then buy waterproof and breathable shoes. Naturally, there are exclusions, especially when the climate is dry and hot.
Walking is not only a fantastic, mild form of exercise but an eco-friendly way to get around whenever feasible. Make sure that your feet are comfortable by finding a good brand of shoes. Buy a pair of walking shoes according to the need of your lifestyle. For an instant, you like to take you will be needing a different kind of shoes for walking than for a person who needs shoes for fast walking. Look for features such as shock absorption and stability when finding a good pair of women walking shoes. Regardless of any feature, try to find a well-fitted walking shoe. If your shoes don't fit right, your feet won't be comfortable, and if your feet aren't comfortable, you are not going to be too pleased with the end of the day. There's nothing worse than rushing home to take your shoes off because your feet are killing you! Most of us have heard, and even seen photos of feet with ingrown toenails, corns and calluses, and in pain. By being clever when shopping for walking footwear, you will be more motivated to walk and have a good time while doing it!
When it comes to walking, you can find a few options for great models and brands to buy such as the New Blanca 1765 and Brooks Glycerine. The New Balance, in particular, is designed as a running shoe, but it is perfect for long distance walks, as well. As for great shoes for walking all day at work, the Asics Gel-Tech Walker NEO2 shoes are your good options. Lastly, travelers who are anticipating plenty of long walks during their trip can rely on the superb comfort that Clark shoes, Keen hiking boots, Dansko, and Naot sandals offer

We are Ron and Sue Henry living in Mount Airy, Maryland
The Owner purchased this condo in 2009
We had visited many Caribbean islands, when we arrived at St. Maarten we fell in love. We always felt very comfortable and welcomed.
Privacy, relaxation and wonderful food.
I absolutely loved the views this condominium offered during my stay. Everything was as pictured and furniture was quite comfortable. The condo is convenient walking distance to Maho and all its amenities which includes shuttle stops and taxis everywhere if you're not inclined to rent a car. I love the Blue Marine development for its amenities and close but still secluded location for some peace and quiet if needed.The owners were very polite and responsive to any questions I had prior to and during my stay. Highly recommend this condo if you want to be close to it all, but not exactly in it!
You cannot beat the location if you plan to spend a lot of time in Maho. The West facing terrace is wonderful for morning coffee and I so enjoyed, as an aviation geek, the small patio at the entry facing the airport. The hosts are suburb and everything is just very safe, clean and luxurious.
We just returned from our third trip to this wonderful Penthouse. The other reviews say it all and we cannot begin to put into words how gracious the Henry's are. We are fortunate to have found this listing and have already booked our return.
We went to Saint Maarten and stayed at this condo for two weeks and everything was perfect. This condo is extremely large and plenty of spaces for a family of four. There are actually two patios, a smaller one in the front overlooking the airport and Simpson Bay and a much larger one in the back overlooking Simpson Bay, Mullet Bay, and Port Cupecoy. The beds are very confortable but they get a little hot because they are covered with plastic underneath the sheets. We bought steaks from Grand Marche and live lobters from the community center in Simpson Bay and grilled in the back patio using the large grill for a few nights. The kitchen is fully stocked with various herbs and spices, and everything else to cook meals. Just like others who have stayed at this condo, we left behind coffees, spices, and suntan lotions for the next guests. Because of the slow season, the pool was mostly empty when we were using it. The location of the condo was perfect because it was easy to get to Simpson Bay, Philipsburg, Marigot, Grand Case, Oyster Pond, and Orient Bay. Highly recommended.
Truthfully, I would rather give this place a 2 star review because if EVERYONE knew this was the BEST place to stay on the island it might be hard to book again. ;) But I must be honest and say we LOVED staying here. It was all everyone else said and more. Roomy, equipped with everything, and very convenient to all we wanted to do. It feels secluded yet within a mile of downtown Maho. Mrs. Henry was gracious with all correspondence and for a huge condo on St. Maarten you can't beat the value. The only downside is leaving. Very nice place! P.S. If you don't want a very bright bedroom first thing in the morning, choose the bedroom in the middle of the condo not the master bedroom.
This penthouse condo is a true penthouse, we did have the best of views! Panoramic views. It includes two indoor jacuzzi tubs, three showers and hot tub outside. Bath and bedrooms are very large, and could easily accomodate 8. Furniture is comfy and very nice. The condo is well furnished, well stocked with cleaning products, bedding, comfortable beds, lots of towels, beach towels as well. Hair appliances. We met the cleaning staff and they are very nice also. The only issue was with the pool not being useful for the majority of our stay, however this was being fixed whilst we were there. Security is very friendly at the gate. Also do not expect interaction with other condo guests, we barely seen anyone anywhere. Very close to Maho (walking distance) as well as Maho and Mullet Beach. Maho has a great grocery store with good prepared food as well for very cheap. There is a casino in Maho and a few clubs. We found club scene to be very young. Would highly recommend this location and the owners Ron and Susan as they are quick to respond and trustworthy.

Bitcoin exchanges are everywhere and navigating them can be confusing, while finding the right one for your needs can be impossible.
With this in mind, CoinTelegraph presents a series of articles briefly reviewing 10 of the most well-known exchanges in which their pros and cons are each placed in the spotlight.
We selected BitStamp, Bitfinex, BTC China, ICBIT, LakeBTC, hitbtc, btc-e, Kraken, ANXBTC and Cryptsy to be included in the reviews, the first of which concentrates on usability and interface.
Not so hot
Bringing up the rear in terms of functionality and interface, especially for non-Russian speaking users, is ICBIT. The exchange aims at attracting both Russian and international users by offering an English-language version, but this is both incomplete and unstable, with the same content alternating between Russian and English depending on the page visited.
A lack of features also hampers the overall usability.
Usability: 2
Design: 2
Ease of use: 2
Bugs affect all exchanges in some form at some time, but the Bitfinex's multi-order problem has been around longer than expected, which is why it ranks low with us in terms of usability. Specifically, a loophole allows users to "place an unlimited amount of orders on margin trading without having the liquidity to do so," as one Reddit user writes while reporting their experience.
This added to some other technical failures "gave significant credence to the view held by some in the community that Bitfinex is not as careful as they should be when designing their exchange," theblogchain.com notes in its review. However, low rates and improved functionality mean that it is nevertheless still useful and safe to deposit with Bitfinex.
Usability: 3
Design: 3
Ease of use: 2
A lack of trust is also a problem plaguing BTC-e, which apart from a fairly unfriendly interface and counterintuitive layout for novice users (granted, those using the exchange are likely experienced), has been prone to bugs in the past year. Price updates also tend to be slow, and the chat feed on the right-hand side is notorious for scams, albeit also featuring some quality news material.
Usability: 3
Design: 3
Ease of use: 2
Less dubious but with a very slow loading is Cryptsy. While the range of currencies available is impressive, pages even timed out at the time of writing. New users would most likely furthermore be deterred by the lack of information on navigation.

Getting better…
Despite tempestuous times recently, the long-suffering Chinese Bitcoin scene at least has a credible exchange in the form of BTC China. The homepage is clearly set out with easy access to the mains functions, as well as displaying data required by more seasoned users.
Self-updating rates are visible at the top of the homepage and throughout, while drop-down menus ensure simplified navigation, even if the multitude of information may be distracting for some.
Usability: 3
Design: 3
Ease of use: 3
ANXBTC has also suffered from slow running recently, and its homepage has a noticeable lack of pertinent information. The exchange comes out on top in terms of user interface, however, as having a single order book for all currencies provides maximum liquidity, as well as efficiency and ease of use from customer's perspective.
Usability: 3
Design: 3
Ease of use: 4
LakeBTC is gaining popularity in the space and boasts a clean design which is generally responsive. Users have noted a lack of clear signage, however, making it difficult to find the required information or services. The design can also appear somewhat 'thin,' with not a huge amount of links to useful data or features immediately available on the homepage.
Usability: 4
Design: 2
Ease of use: 2
On top
Hitbtc balances a wealth of useful information with a clean interface and ease of use for both new and experienced users. Information is updated in real time and pages at the time of writing all loaded seamlessly without delay. Data is cleanly integrated into the homepage and attention has been paid to creating a professional finish with a streamlined yet solid design.
Usability: 4
Design: 4
Ease of use: 5
Similarly well-balanced is Bitstamp, as would be expected from one of the most widely used services. Integrated information required by the vast majority of visitors is concise and easy to access, while
Bitstamp also presents its service fees and other administrative information in an upfront manner. Navigation is effortlessly simple; indeed, we could not think of a negative aspect of the user experience for the service.
Usability: 5
Design: 5
Ease of use: 4
However, Kraken was also on form in terms of user experience and functionality. Payward has built an exchange and trading platform with a huge variety of pairs and additional functionality.
What is impressive is that a huge amount of data and complex fees, etc. is presented in a perfectly understandable manner which leaves no hint of confusion. The homepage is furthermore very uncluttered and the site is completely responsive.
Usability: 4
Design: 4
Ease of use: 3
In terms of usability, the responsiveness of Kraken's site and Bitstamp's efficiency made them clear winners. The Bitstamp design is also uniquely simple and comfortable, making it a top choice for user interface quality. Hitbtc's interface is easy to use, well designed with smooth lines and clutterless controls as well as good choice of color.
Follow CoinTelegraph tomorrow as the next installment of the review goes live, focusing on the ease and safety of withdrawing and depositing funds.

It;s anybody's guess what team Rafa will start tomorrow night at Barnsley with the team playing well on Saturday in beating Brentford 3-1 at home.
But here's our best shot at the team:
Anita Lascelles (c) Clark Dummett
Hayden Shelvey
Ritchie Diame Gouffran
There are three changes from the side that started on Saturday with Isaac Hayden coming on for Jack Colback, Matt Ritchie coming in for Christian Atsu and Mohamed Diame taking over from Ayoze Perez in the number 10 role.
It appears that Daryl Murphy could be fit for the game too as Rafa said today he's competed a full training session.
But the manager will probably hold him back for next Saturday when he could make his Championship debut for Newcastle against his former club Ipswich Town at St. James' Park.
What team do you think Rafa will start tomorrow night at Oakwell?
Comments welcome.

Opening batsman Michael Lumb returned to the Outlaws side on Sunday, reuniting with fellow England man Alex Hales at the top of the order.
Next in the their sights are the Northants Steelbacks, the only side the NatWest T20 Blast North Group that they are yet to face.
"We've been there in the past, and we know a little about them from playing them in four-day cricket," said Lumb.
"They won the tournament last year, and have some good cricketers. They know what they're doing, but we're playing good cricket at the moment. It'll be a good test for us."
The Steelbacks currently occupy sixth position in the NatWest T20 Blast North Group, and their hopes of qualification for the competitions are incredibly slim – needing to win their two remaining matches, relying on results elsewhere while drastically increasing their run rate.
"Generally those teams who are out of a competition offer a bigger threat, they're under a little less pressure," said Lumb.
"Northants are in an interesting position at the moment, and we have to make sure we take the same confidence we showed at the weekend into it."
Lumb has returned to the fold following four weeks out of the side due to a tendon injury in his arm. After making his LV= County Championship comeback in Nottinghamshire's victory over Lancashire in Liverpool, he returned to the T20 team last weekend in the Outlaws' victory over Leicestershire.
"It's great to be back. It felt like a long time to be sat on the sidelines," he said.
"Everyone is now in a good place, we're competing where we want to be and it was a good, easy process to come back into the side."
Nottinghamshire have been in fine form across all formats in recent weeks, with the Outlaws unbeaten in T20 cricket in seven matches. When earlier in the competition three back-to-back defeats at Trent Bridge saw hopes of final's day plummet, the side are now on the brink of securing a home quarter-final.
"The upturn hass come from playing to our potential, and getting the formula right," said Lumb.
"We've been able to paly some aggressive, exciting cricket. With so many games in the competition we had the chance to turn it around, and we did.
"We were able to change things slightly, pick up points and put ourselves in the frame for the knockout matches.
"I think we're lucky to be playing our cricket at Trent Bridge. We have a great following, and the boys love playing here.
"The quarter finals have been a problem for a couple of years now, it's been a problem but this year it's time we got over the line and made it to final's day."
Notts Outlaws squad to face Northants Steelbacks (from): Alex Hales, Michael Lumb, Riki Wessels, Samit Patel, James Taylor, James Franklin, Chris Read, Steven Mullaney, Sam Wood, Ajmal Shahzad, Luke Fletcher, Harry Gurney, Jake Ball.

Subject: WILLIAM DANIEL MYERS - SUMMIT COUNTY
Date: Tue, 19 Oct 1999 16:49:31 -0400
History of Ohio
The American Historical Society, Inc., 1925
Volume III, Page 374-375
WILLIAM DANIEL MYERS. Since early manhood and over a period of thirty
years William Daniel Myers has been the type of citizen and business man
exemplifying the highest qualities of trustworthiness and personal
efficiency. He has been a merchant and is now a leading realtor. His
activities in the Masonic order have brought him many honors, and he has
done much to build up the efficiency of that fraternity in Akron.
He was born November 24, 1876, on a farm then just outside the city limits
of Akron, in Summit County. His grandfather came from Pennsylvania, while
his father, William Myers, was born in Summit county, and in 1860 became a
bookkeeper for the mercantile firm of Hall brothers, and was in their
service many years. He was a democrat and Lutheran. His wife was Harriet
Jane Pryor, a native of Northampton Township, Summit County.
The home where W.D. Myers spent his boyhood and youth has in later years
become one of the fine residential suburbs of Akron, the North Hill
section.He attended the public schools of the city, and subsequently, while
working to pay his way, attended Buchtel college. Seven of his early years
were taken up with his duties as a grocery clerk, and for five years he did
electrical work for a specialty rubber manufacturing concern. For about
thirteen years he was a member of Myers-Bailey Company, hardware merchants
at Akron, leaving that to become associated with the real estate department
of the Herberich-Hall-Harter Company. In 1921 he organized the Standard
Realty Company, and has since been vice president and secretary of this
general real estate and insurance organization.
Mr. Myers is a trustee of the Akron Real Estate Board,and has acquittted
himself well in the performance of his civic duties. During the World war
he worked with all the committees raising funds. He is a democrat and
Lutheran, enjoys flowers and gardening, but his chief interest is Masonry.
His affiliations include Mt. Akra Lodge No. 680, Free and Accepted Masons;
Washington Chapter No. 25, Royal and Select Masters; Bethany Commandery No.
72, Knights Templar and Al Koran Temple of the Mystic Shrine at Cleveland.
In 1924 he was elected monarch of Yusef Khan Grotto No. 41, an organization
for which Master Masons are eligible, and numbering now over 2,500. He also
belongs to the Shrine Patrol, is chairman of the entertainment committee of
the Shrine Club, and is president of the Hot Sands Club, a local Masonic
social organization.
Mr. Myers married at Akron Miss Lillian Johnson, who was born and reared
in Pennsylvania, from which state her father, W.C. Johnson, came to Ohio
and was a concrete contractor in Sandusky and Akron. He was a Quaker. Mrs.
Myers is active in the woman's branches of Masonry, the Eastern Star, White
Shrine of Jerusalem and Daughters of Mocanna. The two children of Mr. and
Mrs. Myers are John and Helen.

Saharanpur (29 Dec.) Today, Amar Ujala, with support from Shivalik Bank and others, organised a mega drawing competition among students of Rainbow School, Spring Bells, Dellmond International, Alpine Public School, Pinewood, Mt. Literra etc., in which approx. 200 students played with their brush and colours to express their feelings on the topics of 'Beti Bachaao, Beti Padhaao' and Smart city Saharanpur.
The event, organised at Mt. Literra School, Chunheti was attended by the DM Pawan Kumar, who is a poet by heart and is always eager to encourage children and interact with them whenever possible. Besides him, Manish Kachhal and Surendra Chauhan were also there to enthuse the participants.
The results of the competition will be declared at some later date. It may be noted here that today's event was part of the series Amar Ujala has taken up on the given themes.
