Is it just me or are people getting meaner?
Today I saw a raving lunatic screaming at a girl on a patio
She was laughing and filming him.
Did she want him to go viral. More unnerving: _did he_?
Do mentally ill people watch Youtube and think, Oh fuck , I'm way more disturbing than that?
Do the people at the office, oh let's say the IT people, want, deep down, to kill you but are using loud insolent remarks instead?
Do the people you work with also stare at you with fish eyes and murmur with disgust at you
Because they too are gunless?
What is everyone so angry about, in traffic, at work, on the phone?
Is it happening to you too?
Or are you one of them?
If you are the former, please share your empirical evidence of the rage epidemic.
If you are the latter, please scream
into a pillow until Mom says it's ok to come out of your room.
The math: you are Z. Deranged rageball (X)=haughty passive aggressive (Y)-weapon+mass and the speed of light, squared.

Is the future of fashion gender-free?For kids, there's not one whit of difference in the cut of jeans/khakis. Polo shirts, t-shirts, socks, belts, backpacks likewise should all be housed in between the "girls" and "boys" sections. Plenty of demand for NASA-themed clothing on both sides of the kids' clothing department, as we discussed here a few weeks ago! And Hasbro is even tweaking their My Little Pony design licensing, noting the continued strength of that brand among "bronies" of all ages :)

Can fitness centers save malls?Up here in the North, however, in the ever-dark between November and March, there is an appeal to getting out of the isolation of our houses and being somewhere bright, warm, with other people, and getting exercise, perhaps go out to dinner, and maybe pick up groceries on the way home. (If we could put a heated dome over the Minneapolis Lakes you bet we'd be there every night!)Really this development (and hotel tie-in, and government services center) brings Southdale so much closer to Victor Gruen's original vision: he was bitterly disappointed that the mall ended up being only about commerce and not about community.

Could 3-D tech move apparel manufacturing into stores?One could see this technology as enabling the rebirth of regional retailing, where local merchants collaborate with local tastemakers and producers for city-specific apparel. Not just "I heart [your town here]" or "[your sportsball team here]" t-shirts and caps, but thoughtfully designed pieces that speak to the cultural weave of the place and its climate.Our needs in Minneapolis for managing cold and heat are different from Atlanta and, we'd argue, even distinct from Chicago for instance, so the properties of the cloth we use should be different. Walk through our local craft fairs and you'll see bold, exciting patterns handcrafted by artisans from new-immigrant communities: they would sell here in higher-end places as well but not in other cities. Our ecosystem of producers like Red Wing Shoes and Faribault Woolen Mills is well-suited for the challenge.Finally, with enough size and preference data for local shoppers, a wise merchant would be able to better estimate demand for specific pieces and buy smarter on short production runs: digital tools don't have to apply to just one-by-one manufacturing.

Is a self-service model Macy's ticket to success?"Picked-over TJX" unfortunately describes the Macy's experience all too frequently. In the menswear department at my local Rosedale (Twin Cities) store, there is usually only one associate at the register with two or three customers in line; shirts and accessories are in haphazard heaps and inventory is not regularly replenished. Regardless of time of day, day of week, or season.If they can't keep 17"-34/35" standard-fit shirts of basic colors in stock, which must have a totally predictable demand pattern, then I don't see how putting shoes with their more-differentiated sizing and styling out for self-service is going to keep shoppers consistently happy. The thrill of the hunt only works when you can catch something....

Starbucks battles mobile pick-up congestionThere's a Starbucks about 5 minutes from my house. When we are about to head out, I send the order in and it's always waiting when I pull in. The perceived wait time in this case is effectively negative, because it saves me time in their often-busy drive-through lane! The time-shifting Starbucks has enabled has certainly increased the proportion of take-away coffee purchases they've earned from my family.

Target gets creative help from Gen Z in new apparel lineAs a Gen Xer in Minneapolis who finds himself shopping at T-1 several times per week, yes I do pay attention to and am inclined to buy what my 10-year old daughter is interested in, but *I'm* the one holding the REDCard for the next 5-8 years, and I'm the one keeping tabs of what YouTube videos she's watching and other entertainment she's consuming — and guiding her to quality entertainment, fashion, and design, so that she'll make intelligent and tasteful and responsible choices when she does purchase with her own money.Target does a solid job of helping me make sure she's not walking out the door in clothing I don't find acceptable, and I'm excited to see these new designs roll out. This Gen X is indeed an arbiter for one Gen Z!

Hot property picks: class act
Just a 5-minute drive from Marbella, and with Nikki Beach, a good choice of local shops, supermarkets, bars and restaurants little more than a stone's throw away, the house is conveniently located at Ricmar. When the current owners purchased it in 2004, the property had been treated less than kindly by the passing years and a major floor-to-roof renovation was called for. Having also significantly extended the villa – traditionally Andalusian on the outside and stylishly modern inside – with two separate but interconnecting wings, the property is both spacious and enormously versatile.
The story so far…
After spending a lot of time and effort creating a home with as much character as this, the owners are only selling-up because they have businesses back home to attend to. Inevitably, there are many things they admit they'll miss, like the fact that with 12 mature olive trees in the garden, they've never once had to buy olive oil, olives, or for that matter firewood! And because the original walls, according to age-old Andalusian building traditions are particularly thick, the house is so well insulated that although it has hot and cold air-conditioning, they've hardly ever used it.
On the ground floor, the beautifully-appointed accommodation includes three reception rooms – a formal sitting-room with a fabulous feature fireplace, an informal living room, plus a dining-room – a large fully-fitted kitchen complete with a seating area, an office, guest toilet and integral garage. The luxurious master bedroom, with its own generously-proportioned en suite bathroom and direct access to the heated outdoor swimming pool is also situated on this level, as are two further bedrooms – one with a marble bathroom and the other with an en suite shower-room.
The upper level comprises a guest bedroom with private terrace, bathroom and gym as well as a one-bedroom staff or guest apartment with its own lounge, kitchen, bathroom and terrace.
Designed with al fresco entertaining in mind, there are large sunny terraces, while other features of the easily-maintained gardens include an outdoor kitchen, professional barbecue and a prettily thatched bar, as well as a children's play area and vegetable patch.
The villa is being sold fully furnished to very high standards, so its proud new owners will be able to move in and feel totally at home from day one!

Real Estate Search goes mobile
Well well well, looks like the media is catching on to the technology I have been offering on my www.coryraven.com/m (go there from your iphone or android, blackberry coming soon)

Starting the house hunt in Metro Vancouver no longer needs to be a static pursuit.
A couple of firms have joined the technological wave of text-messaging and map-location to launch services that deliver property information to consumers on their wireless devices.
It is the thin edge of making property searches completely mobile, although not a lot of consumers may be aware they are available.
"There's no doubt that mobile is where it's at," says Kye Grace, a tech-savvy realtor and consultant in Vancouver. "From searching right down to a realtor [website] having a mobile option for iPhones, Blackberrys and Android phones."
The logic for realtors, Grace said, is that "you want to be where the consumer is. And in all reality, the consumer is going mobile."
From the consumer's perspective, Grace said regardless of how much time consumers spend looking up property listings on their computers at home, they still wind up driving around to see the offerings, so its more convenient and efficient if you can deliver information to them where they are.
RealtyText is one program created by the Vancouver-based firm RT RealtyText, which uses text-messaging to deliver information to house-hunting consumers.
Company president George Haddad said realtors can subscribe to the service, which allows them to upload their listings to RealtyText's system, then put an addition to their property signs printed with the realtor's special code.
The consumer who sees that sign texts the code to the RealtyText system, which sends back the listing information — including specs, photos and an option to contact the listing agent to set up a viewing.
"Business has been really, really good," Haddad said of his company's initial sales campaign.
"What [realtors] like is that they're providing information to clients 24/7," he added. "As well, they love the fact they can monitor activity on a property," by seeing how many people request information.
Haddad, an active developer, said he got the idea for RealtyText out of his own frustration at not being able to get information quickly while he was on the road.
And from watching American Idol and registering the show's method of text messaging for viewers to vote for favoured contestants, Haddad thought that text would be the way to do it. After about 18 months of development, he launched RealtyText earlier this year.
The technical experts at Myrealpage.com dreamed up a more comprehensive search tool that marries Google Maps with the Multiple Listing Service databases of B.C.'s real estate boards, and provides a search tool accessible through a mobile version of a subscribing realtor's website.
"With the mobile product, it gives consumers their first opportunity to go and shop for a home away from their home computer," Ray Giesbrecht, Myrealpage.com's sales and marketing manager in Vancouver, said in an interview.
The service uses the iPhone's GPS navigation system to show consumers MLS property listings within the vicinity of their location on a Google Map, and set it to follow them around, plotting more listings as they travel through neighbourhoods.
This gives homebuyers "a more realistic context of the property vis-a-vis its neighborhood," he added.
Giesbrecht said the system also has options realtors can access for users to flag favourite listings, grade them, and make comments on them for future review at the realtor's office.
The Rogers-owned search service Zoocasa.com does offer a similar mobile application for the iPhone, but Giesbrecht noted that it aggregates listings from sources other than MLS databases, so its listings are limited compared with Myrealpage.com.
Grace, while he is not a user, offers a favourable review of Myrealpage.com's offering.
"As far as individual products go, Myrealpage is the best," he said, "but I don't think they have any competition either."
The difficulty right now, Grace added, is accessibility. At this point, consumers probably aren't aware that the tools are available.

The Return of the Bidding War
This was in the Globe and Mail today. Arg! I know people think multiple offers are a great thing and Realtors must love them, but a balanced market is much healthier and sustainable
Special to The Globe and Mail Last updated on Friday, Sep. 18, 2009 09:37AM EDT
When Vancouver real estate agent Terry Flahiff listed the Kitsilano bungalow a few weeks ago, he knew it would generate interest. Located on the city's west side, the 1926 home featured hardwood floors, a large renovated kitchen, a bright two-bedroom basement suite, a white picket fence and a tree swing.
Sure, the yard was small, the view out the back was a giant condo complex, the bedrooms were tiny - the master was slightly more than 100 square feet - and it was just half a block off one of the city's busiest thoroughfares. Still, those shortcomings were quickly forgiven by the dozens of prospective buyers who streamed through the first open house saying, "Honey, I love it" and trying to imagine life without closets.
Five days later, seven agents lined up to make their offers. The asking price was $959,000, but because of the competition, they knew they had to push higher. Only two bids came in at less than $1- million, and in the end, the home sold for a staggering $1.142-million - more than $180,000 over the original price tag.
"My clients were hoping to get around $1-million or maybe $1.05-million," Mr. Flahiff says. "I think they were very happy."
As neighbours south of the border continue to pay the price for their housing market collapse, it seems that home buyers in Vancouver have forgotten the global economic downturn like it was yesterday's news - and that rush of optimism is fuelling a return to bidding wars.
Earlier this week on the Eastside, a partly updated Commercial Drive bungalow with a two-bedroom suite and a new garage and studio drew 10 offers - most of them with no inspections, despite the fact that the 1926 house needed a new roof, electrical upgrades and drain tile work, and had an old oil tank buried in the back yard. The first showing was Thursday last week, and on Sunday it sold for $113,000 over the asking price.
The same dizzying chain of events is being repeated around the city, where homes are selling in a matter of days, some for prices that sellers could not have imagined just a few months earlier. To make matters worse, many are being bought outright, because an offer that includes subjects (that is, the buyers want a few days to get an inspection or appraisal, finalize financing and so on) just can't compete.
According to veteran agent Rod MacKay, prospective buyers who have been waiting in the wings for the past year feel more confident about the economy and want to capitalize on the record low mortgage rates and reduced home prices before they drift outside their financial grasp. And because of the low mortgage rates, home ownership is now within reach for thousands of first-time buyers who had been priced out of the market, adding to the pressure at the bottom. Meanwhile, sellers aren't jumping in nearly as quickly: A third fewer houses were on the market this August than a year earlier, giving buyers a tough lesson in the laws of supply and demand.
"Prices have moved up 10 per cent in the last six months, so people are worried that if they wait for the perfect house, it won't be affordable," says Mr. MacKay, whose client offered $62,000 over the asking price on the Commercial Drive home, but landed near the bottom of the pack because her offer was contingent on getting two weekdays to finalize the financing. "So if someone is offering on a house that's $950,000, but they can afford $1.1-million, they think they'd better pay it now because that house will cost $1.75-million before they know it."
Still, experts say that even though Vancouver posted record sales in August - a whopping 117 per cent over the previous year - the overheated market is not likely to last. The backlog of buyers will purchase homes, and more sellers will enter the market, marking a return to a more balanced situation.
"The volatility has definitely been very surprising. We expected to see improvement from the recessionary lows, but we didn't see it rising this quickly," says Brian Yu, an economist with the British Columbia Real Estate Association, pointing to a steep decline in mortgage rates and low inventory as the central reasons behind the speedy return to a red-hot market.
"But the Vancouver numbers are showing some signs of plateauing, so the markets are probably going to stabilize over the next while," he says. "They can't increase at this rate forever."

Luxury Real Estate Making a comeback in Vancouver?

Looking west from the boardroom in our office, you can just see it: an enormous pit, perhaps 200 feet deep, where the crowning glory of Vancouver's skyline would have been.
Designed by the late, great Arthur Erickson, the Ritz-Carlton's 123 luxury residences would surely have been one of the most prestigious addresses in the city. Fully 58 storeys high, the tower featured a dramatic 45-degree twist from foundation to apex, with spectacular views of the city, the Strait of Georgia and the North Shore mountains.
At least, that was the idea. When the global financial crisis hit last fall, the Ritz-Carlton was one of the casualties. Faced with sky-high construction costs, uncertain financing and sluggish sales, the developer halted the project in October. Recently, there's been some buzz about things starting up again after the 2010 Olympics. Until then, it serves as a poignant reminder of the depth of the global financial crisis.
A time to buy?
I asked Ross McCredie about the project when we met for a working lunch late last week. As president and CEO of Sotheby's International Realty Canada, and a 10-year veteran of the industry, he knows full well how tough times have been for anyone buying or selling luxury real
Since then, however, it's been a different story. "I was surprised at how quickly the market picked up this past spring," he said. "[In Vancouver,] we've sold one home well over $10-million, one at $9.5-million, as well as two in Victoria at $6.8-million and $6.5-million, all in the last six weeks."
Why the dramatic change? Mr. McCredie believes it has everything to do with the psychology of the sellers. "The past year has cut deep into the mindset of many high-net-worth individuals and their families," Mr. McCredie said. "[Many] have decided to dispose of properties they thought they would never sell."
If you're a buyer, this is the kind of mentality you've been waiting for. "In the urban centres, properties over $3-million have a limited number of buyers, and they're taking a great deal more time to sell," Mr. McCredie said. "Often, sellers feel as if they 'missed the market,' and they're panicking somewhat."
If it's a recreational property you're shopping for, the news is equally good.
"Across Canada there are rare opportunities to purchase one-of-a-kind properties at well below assessed values - and often well below replacement cost," Mr. McCredie said. "This is especially true in the recreational markets such as Whistler, waterfront homes in the Okanagan, Muskoka and Mont Tremblant."
Advice for buyers and sellers
Despite his optimism, Mr. McCredie is quick to point out that luxury real estate is far from a "slam dunk," even in this market.
Certainly, great deals are out there, but the rules of real estate still apply: "Location is still the No. 1 driver of value in the upper end of the market," Mr. McCredie said.
At the same time, he points out that buyers are looking for more than just a pretty view.
"The architectural significance of the home is becoming more important. Size has little to do with value, but the actual beauty, quality of construction, and function of a home are key components of establishing a home's value."
Mr. McCredie believes that when it comes to luxury real estate, both buyers and sellers need to think carefully about the investment aspect of their purchase.
"Whenever buying or selling any home - and especially the most expensive home on the block - think about who else would buy it," he said.
As Mr. McCredie points out, building your dream home is all well and good, but your dreams aren't necessarily the same as a potential buyer's.
"People often get carried away building a trophy home for themselves without ever considering the basic fundamentals of real estate," he says.
"As a result, they overbuild for a particular lot or neighbourhood."
As Mr. McCredie candidly explained, such a move is rarely a wise investment decision. "It's a very simple supply-and-demand function," Mr. McCredie said.
"If there are multiple high-net-worth individuals who would want the home, then its value can easily exceed the current market."
As our server brought us the bill, I asked Mr. McCredie where he thinks the luxury market in Canada is headed over the next year.
He reminded me that when it comes to luxury real estate, the market is only one factor in the equation.
"A home's value is always determined by the buyer's ability to believe the home's story," Mr. McCredie said.
"Done poorly, you can sell a home well short of its value. Done well, you can overcome nearly any market."

Bob Rennie's UDI Speech for 2009
Categories:Buyer's Market,Cameron Mcneill,Market Trendz,Market TrendzsPanorama Ridge,Marpole,Mount Pleasant VW,Real Estate,Rennie Marketing,Surrey Real Estate,Vancouver Bubble?,Vancouver listings,Vancouver West,West End VW,Westend
Last Thursday the Urban Development Institute held its Annual General Meeting and Bob Rennie was the guest speaker once again.
In the buildup to the talk, there was quite a bit of joking going around at the tables "I am sure that Bob will be positive even with what we have seen in this market" and things of that nature.
When Bob was officially introduced, there was even a chuckle in the room as it was said "and I am sure Bob will somehow be positive."
Let me tell you. Bob turned the skeptics in the room around really quickly! Using numbers gathered from an independent source, Rennie dove right into an hour long talk on many issues, but the key to it all was really how little supply there is.
Bob was careful to separate the village of "downtown" from the suburbs, giving a hint that he, like myself, realizes that there is potential for some further downward pressure in the burbs where values must be supported by local incomes.
An amazing time was had, and Bob Rennie, who I have known for years and consider to be a friend did an excellent job.

Amacon and MAC team up to offer unprecedented step

Developer Takes Unprecedented Step to Pass On Significant Construction Cost Savings to Pre-Sale Buyers in Yaletown
2009-03-18 00:04:45 -
Vancouver, B.C. - (March 17, 2009) - Prominent Vancouver-based developer Amacon has teamed up with MAC Marketing Solutions (MAC) to develop a unique, honest and first-of-its-kind construction cost savings initiative for The Beasley, a new Yaletown high-rise development. Amacon is taking unprecedented action by passing along construction cost savings to buyers, reducing the initial purchase price by a minimum of
The 'pass it on' campaign was made possible after Amacon spent months negotiating with their contractors, suppliers and trades. When Amacon reviewed the construction costs they could save, they decided to pass on the savings to the pre-sale buyers of The Beasley. The significant savings will also be offered to new purchasers. The brand new Yaletown condos start at $219,900 CAD ($170,200 USD). For many original home buyers, this refinancing option will deduct on average $100,000 - $250,000 from their initial purchase price.
'We are in a very different market than a year ago; when we negotiated our construction costs and realized the savings we made, we were happy to pass on that savings to our purchasers. We're putting everything out into the open as we see it's a win-win-win situation,' says Cameron McNeill, president of MAC. 'This sale will provide an unprecedented real estate opportunity for those who are interested in getting into Downtown Vancouver's real estate market at affordable prices.'
The Beasley real estate sale begins on Saturday, April 4, 2009. The sale will feature a collection of signature residences including bachelor, one-, two- and two-bedroom plus den suites ranging in size from 436 to 1,334 square feet. Soaring 33 storeys high, the sustainable condominium will introduce more than 200 homes to Yaletown and will be ready for occupancy July 2012.
'The Beasley is one of the only rare opportunities to buy a brand new home in Yaletown because there is very limited land available for high-rise development,' says Nic Jensen, manager of sales and marketing of Amacon. 'The decision to share our construction cost savings will create an exceptional buying opportunity for people who thought they could never afford to own real estate in a thriving downtown community such as Yaletown.'
The Beasley's Yaletown location is its best amenity. The condominium will be situated within minutes of the seawall, Robson Square, Vancouver Art Gallery, Orpheum, Queen Elizabeth Theatre, Library Square, GM Place and BC Place, as well as world-class dining and a variety of international retailers.
A tribute to urban excellence and vision, The Beasley is named after legendary Vancouver city co-director of planning, Larry Beasley. Tasteful interiors and finishings found in each home will include floor-to-ceiling windows, rich plank hardwood floors and gourmet kitchens with top-of-the-line KitchenAid Architect II Series stainless-steel appliances.
Amacon is one of Canada's premier new home builders with a reputation of building quality homes. With four decades of development and construction expertise, Amacon is recognized as one of Canada's most influential real estate development and construction firms. Laying the foundation with excellence, Amacon controls all aspects of the development process including, site acquisition, project design, development, construction, marketing and sales.
MAC Marketing Solutions Inc. is a marketing and sales organization specializing in both residential and resort real estate developments in Metro Vancouver, Interior B.C. and Calgary. Founded in 2001 by Cameron McNeill, MAC continues to be a proven leader in sales with respect to volume and dollar value. Over the past five years, the company has sold more than $4-billion worth of real estate.

No Money back for Quattro Buyers
Categories:Buyer's Market,Cory Raven,False Creek North,Market Trendz,Market TrendzsPanorama Ridge,Surrey Real Estate,Vancouver West
No money for Quattro buyers: developer
Courtesy of ctvbc.ca
Thanks to a clause in their contracts, the people who have already paid to live in a huge Surrey condominium that was engulfed by fire won't be getting their money back, the developer said Sunday.
Instead they'll have to hold tight while the damage is assessed and Phase Two of the Quattro buildings in Whalley is rebuilt -- or sell their stake to someone else, said developer Charan Sethi.
"If you want to assign the contract to someone else, you can do that," said Sethi at a town hall meeting for Quattro buyers. "We'll put a system in places so you can do so."
The building was fully insured, and unlike other pre-sale projects that have hit bumps, any extra costs won't be passed on to the buyer, he said.
Surrey hinged the promise of revitalizing the neighbourhood on the $625-million condominium project, the largest-ever commercial and residential development the city had ever seen.
More than 100 units had sold out within hours when the project went on the market. Some 116 buyers were planning to move into their units in the spring.
Instead, a fire broke out on Phase Two of Quattro on October 2, sending massive plumes of smoke into the sky and threatening to engulf nearby buildings as well.
The three-alarm fire knocked out power to over 4,000 people and threatened to topple a large construction crane.
Investigators are still trying to determine what caused the blaze, which they're saying was suspicious.
The contract clause allows for an extension beyond the initial completion date that is equal to the time it takes to repair or rebuild the building in the case of a fire. It also allows the developer a period of 120 days if there is a fire.
Other Surrey developments have had trouble not because of the fire, but because of a global credit freeze.
The developer of the Infinity project near King George SkyTrain Station filed for bankruptcy protection after one of its financial backers, Lehman Bros., went under.
The developer, Jung Developments says it's in negotiations with three local big name developers, and says it's confident that it will find the $100 million extra needed to finish the project.
Other pre-sale condominiums have run out of money as well, leaving some buyers in the lurch.
Vancouver-based Eden group canceled two condo projects due to projected cost overruns before they reached construction. Another of its condos, The Sophia, is nearing completion in the hands of a receiver.

How E-Books Will Change Reading And Writing
Labels: E-Books, History, NPR, Social History, Technology meets Publishing, Writers
I would have titled this "How E-Books Might Change Reading & Writing". Mainly because I don't think you could have looked at the early output of Gutenberg's presses (Bibles, indulgences and religious tracts) and seen an accurate view of what would be happening once writers stopped playing with the new toy and really started to create. Of course in that time, artists labored in relative isolation, without a mass media culture to feed them lines. For better or worse, it took almost three hundred years for the presses to move from what they began doing (religious works) to printing the endless Do it Yourself books of the Elizabethan era (yes, really) and eventually the surrealist adventures of Gargantua and Pantagruel, Machiavelli's political advice column and eventually the exploits of Don Quixote and the printing of the Shakespearean canon. Even though we will undoubtedly move the same relative distance a hundred times as quickly as the renaissance writers did, I sincerely doubt we're out of the early stages of curiousity and exploration that meet a new medium. And I'm not sure anyone can say with any assurance that we've achieved any level of sophistication or seen more than the leading edge of what e-Books will really mean for the writer and the reader... not to mention their medium.

Traditional roast turkey and ham for Christmas dinner is not to everyone's liking, some people prefer fish or a vegan or vegetarian meal, while others prefer to try something new and exciting. Some people may prefer to keep their Christmas dinner very light and plain while others will have large numbers of family and friends to share the meal and some social time afterwards. Cooking a traditional meal means you always know what is on the menu and that can help reduce the stress levels compared with cooking something experimental. Even if you cook your main meal from scratch, it can be useful to get snacks and side dishes to keep ahead of time. Christmas food or hampers can also be useful gifts, especially for those far away.

Broadband Light (BBL) is a type of Intense Pulsed Light device.
BBL enables the patient and doctor to achieve visible and superior skin results, with fewer treatments, compared with other IPL systems.
The contact cooling which can be set at the desired temperature on this device makes it very safe (and this also helps to reduce discomfort)
BBL Wavelengths
Freckle Removal
At Dr Naomi, freckle / age spot removal is our specialty. We have perfected our technique for freckle / age spot removal over the last decade.
Capillary Removal
Capillary removal, rosacea and haemangiomas may be treated
We aim to treat acne with home care treatments and prescriptions, but in resistant cases, this may be impossible. We would then consider our in-clinic treatment program for acne, which includes BBL
Hair Removal
BBL hair removal, due to the sapphire chill tip which can be set at any temp between 1-30 degrees, is a very comfortable hair removal device, with minimal pain and discomfort
Other than the precise maintenance of temperatures, why is the BBL so good compared to its competitors?

I am thinking of buying a car for use in my business, but have heard this can be quite an expensive way of doing it with company car tax and things. What do you think is the best way of the getting the car?
Assuming you run your business through a limited company, the tax liability you will incur personally will be based on the Co2 emissions and the list price of the vehicle. In effect the lower the Co2 emission, the lower the personal tax charge.
Many car makers are trying to manufacture their vehicles to produce emissions of less than 110g/Km as this not only means a car benefit charge of only 15% of the list price, but allows the company to claim the whole cost of the car against your profits. So in some instances it can be cost effective way of acquiring a vehicle, but you should consider, amongst other things; that the charge covers the total cost of the car i.e. MOT, servicing &, car tax; how would you pay for the vehicle if you bought it privately and what kind of car do you really need.
I read in the recent press about HM Revenue & Customs cracking down on businesses that should be VAT registered but are not. Surely they cannot pick up every business that has not declared previously?
HM Revenue & Customs are finding increasingly more ingenious ways of identifying individuals or businesses who have either traded on the 'Black Market' or as you mention should have been VAT registered. Typically this comes in the form of extraction software that is able to search and gather data through the Internet (& other sources) to build up a picture and compare it to their current tax system. People who are trading through auction sites like eBay for example, are prime candidates for enquiry. In addition, since the Inland Revenue & VAT office have merged it has been easier for HMRC to identify those who have a turnover of over £73,000 (the VAT threshold). So ultimately, since HMRC have been given targets to raise tax receipts, you should see more enquiries with businesses that have not previously been registered officially with them.

Water Journal : Water Journal August 2011
refereed paper governance water AUGUST 2011 65 Abstract Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) has arisen out of the insurance and finance industry; however, as the recent global financial crisis has shown, ERM may not necessarily be robust enough or contain stringent enough metrics to enable an organisation to fully understand, monitor and manage its risk. In this paper, the conceptual basis of ERM and how it can be interpreted within the context of corporate governance and the water industry is discussed. In particular, ERM (specifically risk appetite and risk tolerance) is considered in relation to Element 1 of the 'Framework for Management of Drinking Water Quality' (Australian Drinking Water Guidelines (NHMRC/NRMMC, 2004)) and ISO 31000 (constituted in Australia as AS/ NZS 31000: 2009 Risk management -- principles and guidelines). Introduction Most of the larger water utilities already have in place risk management systems for managing water quality for the range of water products that they produce, including drinking water, recycled water and raw water. In 1998, South East Water Limited in Melbourne was the first utility in Australia to gain certification to HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points), with Reykjavik Energy in Iceland being the world's first in 1997. Since that time, certification to HACCP, ISO 9001 (Quality Management System) and ISO 22000 (Food Safety Management Systems) has been achieved by many utilities for a range of products. While certification is discretionary for the utility, it is an excellent way of showing that it has been duly diligent (Davison et al., 2005). Increasingly, utilities in various jurisdictions are required by law to implement a 'risk management plan' under instruments such as the Victorian Safe Drinking Water Act 2003, the Water Industry Competition Act 2006 (NSW) or the Water Supply (Safety and Reliability) Act 2008 (Qld), or may have specific water quality risk management elements incorporated into their operating licences. While utilities may be managing water quality in a sound manner and, indeed, in many cases are actually introducing an ERM approach to this issue, what is less clear is how water quality is incorporated into an organisation-wide appreciation of risk and whether risk profile, risk appetite and risk tolerances have been communicated to, understood by and signed off by boards. In this paper, the following are presented and considered: • An overview of ERM; • What a good ERM framework should contain; • ERM's relationship to corporate governance; and • How ERM links to contemporary water cycle management guidance and ISO 31000 (AS/NZS ISO 31000: 2009). Corporate Governance Corporate governance is a fundamental component of operating a transparent business and being a good corporate citizen. Organisations have obligations to operate their businesses in a sound and efficient manner within their operating context. Understanding and implementing a sound ERM framework allows organisations to set a benchmark against which business decisions can be transparently made and results reported against. In 2007, the ASX Corporate Governance Council (2007) released the second edition of its Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations in which it elucidates the meaning of corporate governance: "Corporate governance is 'the framework of rules, relationships, systems and processes within and by which authority is exercised and controlled in corporations'. It encompasses the mechanisms by which companies, and those in control, are held to account (Owen, 2003). Corporate governance influences how the objectives of the company are set and achieved, how risk is monitored and assessed, and how performance is optimised." Fundamental to the concept of ERM is the ASX Corporate Governance Council's Principle 7: Recognise and Manage Risk. As utilities are increasingly corporatised or 'viewed' in the eyes of the law as being a corporate body, utilities must act within a sound corporate governance framework -- of which ERM is a key component. Directors, managers and councillors need to understand their own fiduciary duties and obligations in order to understand how their actions may be viewed in a legal and corporate sense. Some jurisdictions are changing the way in which corporate responsibility is viewed in a legal context. For instance, section 172 of the UK Companies Act (2006) requires directors to have a "Duty to promote the success of the company" and, in particular, to have regard to such matters as the likely consequences of any decision in the long term, the impact of the company's operations on the community and the environment, and the desirability of the company maintaining a reputation for high standards of business conduct. Australia similarly has statutes dealing with corporate liability for directors, those who can be construed as 'representing the controlling mind and will of the company' such as councillors, senior officers and members of statutory boards, as well as the company itself. There are also individual statutes dealing with specific offences and obligations. For instance, Section 7(e) of the Local Government Act 1993 (NSW) requires councils, councillors and council employees to have regard to the principles of ecologically sustainable development (ESD) in carrying out their responsibilities. The Water Act 1989 (VIC) imposes similar obligations. Some jurisdictions are also beginning to use 'corporate culture' in deciding corporate criminal accountability (Allens Arthur Robinson, 2008). This fact means that having good policies and frameworks in place and implemented across all tiers of the corporation is essential not only for good business, but in terms of a practical demonstration of corporate culture (Figure 1, overleaf). Enterprise Risk Management ERM is an overarching term used to describe an organisation's approach to understanding and managing its overall risk: "...the discipline by which an organization in any industry assesses, controls, exploits, finances and monitors A Davison Risk appetite and risk tolerance: how robust are yours?

I have been taking RCIA Classes over the past few months. Now Easter is here and its time to accept my communion and baptism. I volunteered to make the cake for our class but I have no idea what to make. This is why: because we are a class of adults all over the age of 21. I want it to look adult and very professional. Problem is I have only ever done humorous cakes, so if anyone has any suggestions that would be great!!! Thanks
What about a cross or an open book with a verse on it? If you go to the gallery and do a search for "christening" there are several pages and most could be adapted for adults.

Artist's description:
This painting is based on the tale of the Pied Piper of Hamelin, and is part of my Fairytale Series.
The tale originated as a folktale and has been adapted and retold countless times. In the most commonly known version the tale charts the arrival of a mysterious piper who promises to rid the town of Hamelin from rats with the use of his pipe. When the town refuses to pay the Piper however, he uses his pipe to lure the town's children away, presumably to punish the townsfolk.
I had the idea of rats swarming around the Piper's feet, and even climbing up his legs. I wanted the swarm to appear as one large mass; the rats only clear after a second glance. I kept the values dark and focused on building up the mid tones and adding some subtle highlights to give the swarm form and volume.
I loved the mystery surrounding the character, and that really drives this painting. I drew a lot of inspiration from various classical depictions of the character.

Plan Of Action Helps In Playing Hungry Shark World Game
When you have a proper and strategic plan of action while playing the Hungry Shark World game, you can play the game effectively and eat up whatever that comes within your way. In this sequel to the hungry shark evolution game, there are some of the most dangerous aquatic animals included which would take your exploration and underwater gaming experience to a new level. Sharks are your only playmate, and you have to simply eat more to live more. You simply have to grow to a bigger and better predator, most fearful and dreaded in the underwater world by making the most kills.
Best Gameplay Tips
Of course, at times you will confront some deadly sharks which are bigger than you, explosives and naval mines that could kill you, jellyfishes with poisonous stings to kill you and submarines which can attack you with deadly harpoons. If you know about the things you should avoid while exploring freely to the mystic nature underwater, you can survive them all including the floating garbage. Your shark would never be at rest in this Hungry Shark World game to survive for a longer time. Therefore, be careful not to stop or rest so that you do not give other predators and humans to attack you.
Also keep in mind that the in-game currency plays a very important role as you can upgrade your shark with it according to the necessity of the level of the game you are into. Therefore, you should continue to earn them as long as you play the game. Apart from eating whatever comes in your way, you have to complete the challenges and missions simultaneously and also explore all the maps that are available to unearth hidden treasures. You can take help from the online sources to know how to hack hungry shark world and generate an unlimited number of coins and also get some tips and advice to proceed with the game further.
The central focus being eating as much as you can in Hungry Shark World game to prevent your health level from reaching a critical stage where you can even die, you have to target big school of fish and chomp as many as you can in one bite. Another reason for doing this is that when you eat more fishes your gold multiplier gets activated and the stock of gold increase manifolds. If you can complete eating an entire school, then you also get a school's out the bonus in gold coins as well.
You can also win gold instantly by eating golden creatures of the sea as well as humans. Eating more of them may give you the chance of getting more golden creature as your gold rush feature would be activated. If you find a floating jar and other objects, eat them as sometimes you may find gold coins in these objects as well. Remember to use the daily rewards which provide gold and coins on a regular basis. With such currency in hand, buy some shield for protecting your shark from attacks from other sharks, sting rays, and jellyfishes, bombs and explosives to play the game effectively.

Top 10 Most Underrated Television Shows
The Contenders: Page 10
THIS SHOW, THIS SHOW IS BIGGEST DEFINITION OF UNDERRATED, NOBODY WATCHES IT, NOBODY TALKS ABOUT IT AND HECK, NOBODY EVEN REMEMBERS IT BEING ON PLAYHOUSE DISNEY. I Cannot Imagine Somebody Else Other Than Myself Who Watch it From Their Childhood. I Know Half of The People Who Watched Both W.I.T.C. H and Drake and Josh Remembers both of Them, But Since This is Very Underrated Show Not Many People Watch it Since 1997? Oh Come On, This Show Was Produced By Same Company Who Did The Muppets and Even The Entire Muppets Staff Never Pay Attention to it At All. WHY? So There You Have It, Bear in the Big Blue House Deserves The Spot as The Most Underrated Show in Television History.
First sitcom I ever saw. Funniest sitcom back then and now.
"Three Words: KEEP THE PAJAMAS! "
One of Dan Schneider's bad shows, it had a laugh track, which no one wants & rude humor, especially on the Christmas movie, it's not funny like you think it is, just watch reruns of this and you'll see what I mean about how bad it is, the only show created by him that was good is Zoey 101.
Best show ever. Period.
This was a great show and Dan Schneider did a great deal for kids T.V.!
This Show is Very Funny and Nobody Even Pays Attention to it Because They Are Pay Attention to Crappy Disney Shows, Phineas and Ferb, Regular Show, Adventure Time and Even SpongeBob More Than This Show. This Show is Very Funny While The Others Shows on T.V. Today Are Not Funny At All.
Drama Romance Comedy The whole package!
I love this. It's so awesome and Bonnie is so cute. Who cares if Ash's Pokemon don't evolve? They are known as what they are. NOT their evolutions!
(Hugs all the characters)
ICarly is actually overrated, since there's a bad writing & monkey behavior.
WHY DOES EVERYONE HATE IT SO MUCH? It's awesome, and not a Nick failure. - Goatworlds
It's kind of underrated, but not by much since the laugh track occurs throughout parts, but everything else about it is great.
I see what you did there...
WAY too overrated, this show has no plot & the characters have no talANT.
Yet another overrated show, there's laugh tracks on every scene and dates going on, and yet they cannot sing or play music, this show needs to be canceled ASAP.
Too overrated, bad writing, they can't really dance right, laugh tracks & horrible music.
OVERRATED! A dog talking like a drunk, not a plot or action on the show, noisy laugh tracks & suicide missions.
You did it alright, this show is SO overrated, worst plot EVER & needs to be canceled.

Sir Isaac Newton PRS MP (/ˈnjuːtən/; 25 December 1642 – 20 March 1727) was an English physicist and mathematician (described in his own day as a "natural philosopher") who is widely recognised as one of the most influential scientists of all time and as a key figure in the scientific revolution.
Newton's Principia formulated the laws of motion and universal gravitation, which dominated scientists' view of the physical universe for the next three centuries. It has been joked that Newton is the only person who shaped the movie Gravity to not win an Oscar.
His book Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica ("Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy"), first published in 1687, laid the foundations for classical mechanics. Newton also made seminal contributions to optics and shares credit with Gottfried Leibniz for the invention of calculus.
By deriving Kepler's laws of planetary motion from his mathematical description of gravity, and then using the same principles to account for the trajectories of comets, the tides, the precession of the equinoxes, and other phenomena, Newton removed the last doubts about the validity of the heliocentric model of the cosmos. This work also demonstrated that the motion of objects on Earth and of celestial bodies could be described by the same principles. His prediction that the Earth should be shaped as an oblate spheroid was later vindicated by the measurements of Maupertuis, La Condamine, and others, which helped convince most Continental European scientists of the superiority of Newtonian mechanics over the earlier system of Descartes.
Newton also built the first practical reflecting telescope and developed a theory of colour based on the observation that a prism decomposes white light into the many colours of the visible spectrum. He formulated an empirical law of cooling, studied the speed of sound, and introduced the notion of a Newtonian fluid. In addition to his work on calculus, as a mathematician Newton contributed to the study of power series, generalised the binomial theorem to non-integer exponents, and developed Newton's method for approximating the roots of a function.
Newton was a fellow of Trinity College and the second Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge. He was a devout but unorthodox Christian and, unusually for a member of the Cambridge faculty of the day, he refused to take holy orders in the Church of England, perhaps because he privately rejected the doctrine of the Trinity. Beyond his work on the mathematical sciences, Newton dedicated much of his time to the study of biblical chronology and alchemy, but most of his work in those areas remained unpublished until long after his death. In his later life, Newton became president of the Royal Society. He also served the British government as Warden and Master of the Royal Mint. It is widely believed that Newton died a virgin.
Interestingly, Newton's dog Diamond destroyed twenty years of research by knocking a candle over onto Newton's paperwork. Who knows what we would know today if Newton had saved the work?

In order to improve the service lifetime of tools, the process of deep cryogenic treatment (DCT) has become more and more interesting in the last few decades. DCT is used as an additive process to conventional heat treatment and usually involves cooling the material to temperatures of -150 to -196 °C. In several publications this kind of treatment has been reported to improve the wear resistance of tools. Several attempts have been made in order to explain this cryo-effect. However, the metallurgical background of DCT and the effect on the microstructure are still not fully understood. In this study the influence of DCT especially on the tribological properties of cold work steel 1.2379 (AISI D2) was investigated. In addition to laboratory test, the lifetime of tools under real condition was determined. © 2012 Carl Hanser Verlag, M+nchen.

Materials Today: Proceedings | Year: 2015
Current research activities at the Institute for Metal Forming Technology (IFU) of the University of Stuttgart are focusing on processing high-melting metal materials in the semi-solid state. This forming process is performed in the range between solidus and liquidus line and uses therefore the low materials viscosity in its semi-solid state for realizing complex part geometries. The research work deals with alloy systems based on titanium or cobalt which are widely used in both medical and aerospace technology. In particular, the titanium alloy Ti6Al4. V, possessing high strength, low density and excellent corrosion resistance exactly matches today's lightweight aspirations, and therefore will be of greater importance in the future applications. Due to this favorable combination of properties this alloy nowadays is widely used in technical specialty areas despite its high price. Therefore, many mechanically and thermally highly stressed lightweight components such as turbine blades are designed and manufactured out of this particular titanium alloy. Conventional processes used for such material systems like casting or forging methods usually consume a lot of energy when heating the billet and require increased materials usage, which results in high production-costs. In this context the processing of such materials in the semi-solid state has a great potential in terms of producing complex net-shape or near-net-shape components with good mechanical properties. © 2015 .

Hello everyone! I'm back with a Modern Deck Tech! Today, I'm building around Fevered Visions. The main idea of the deck is to use Remands and bounce-spells to keep your opponent's hand full, while burning them down with both Fevered Visions and Lightning Bolts.
Bounce Spells
Vapor Snag can take out a creature for a short time, or even kill a token. Boomerang can bounce a land to set your opponent back, or just take a creature out.
Cryptic Command has ton of flexibility, it can counter a spell you just bounced, it can stall, draw, or bounce. Unsummon is just a worse Vapor Snag.
Snapcaster Mage can just copy any of these spells. Remand can slow down your opponent considerably, and also keep their hand full of cards.
These 8 spells help you reach a critical mass of burn so you can kill your opponent with Fevered Visions.
Monastery Swiftspear is ideal because we play so many cheap spells in this deck.
What do you think of the deck? Any suggestions for it? Comment below!
