I hereby release my copyrights to, and place into the public domain, all of the following:
The hundreds of articles I've posted on this website since it launched.
The articles I've published in my newsletters.
The podcasts and interviews I've posted done on Blogtalk Radio and other syndicated sites.
The videos I've created and posted to my YouTube account.
Unless I explicitly state otherwise, all future content I personally create and publish on www.lisamhayes.com shall not be copyrighted and shall belong to the public domain.
The www.lisamhayes.com website design is copyrighted, including the CSS code and the look and feel of the site, so don't copy the design of the site itself. Don't create a site that might be confused with www.lisamhayes.com.
Larger works that include a copyright notice shall remain copyrighted.
Anything material in products or programs I charge for is not up for unconditional grabs. Feel free to quote it, use it, or share it, but a proper credit is required in writing.
If I decide to copyright something new that I create, I'll include a copyright notice within the work.
What Does This Mean?
This means that you have more rights to use my uncopyrighted work in various ways.
Here are some of the things you can do with my uncopyrighted material:
Repost it on your own website as much as you want
Translate it into other languages
Transfer it to different media (articles-> audio, articles -> books, etc.)
Make money from what you create (sell it in ebook form, post it on your website and make money from advertising)
Create derivative works based on the content (i.e. books, movies, software, etc.)
Here are some more specific examples of what you can do:
Package any subset of articles into an ebook, and give it away free or sell it
Create a website to share my content in another language, translating as much of it as you desire
Republish some of my articles in your company newsletters
Turn some of my articles into an audio program
Create an app based on my content
Develop a workshop or seminar based on my content
You don't need to directly ask my permission to do this. You can simply go ahead and do it.
If you're not sure about something, consult your inner guidance and make whatever decision you believe is right. Or talk to a lawyer if you're concerned about legalities.
Definitely don't ask me to do anything that would involve lawyers, contracts, exclusivity, or obligations. I cannot grant you any special rights for content that is now in the public domain.
If I see something really cool being developed (based on my subjective judgment), then I may even help to promote it if I feel it would strongly benefit people. Just don't expect me to agree to anything in advance before you actually do the creative part.
Moral Rights
While I am giving away the copyrights to my work, I am retaining the moral rights to my work.
Moral rights include the right to attribution and the right to preserve the integrity of the work.
These rights are basically common sense, and they'll help both of us avoid unnecessary headaches if you choose to use my work.
If you do reuse my work, you should give proper credit, such as by including a note like "Lisa M. Hayes wrote this" or "Republished from www.lisamhayes.com" when republishing my content.
My work is already out there, and there's a high probability that it will be recognized when republished. Many people do not take kindly to trying to pass off someone else's work as your own.
Giving attribution is simply the smart thing to do. It won't cost you anything, and including my name on the work may even help your sales if you're selling a product.
Although it isn't a requirement, I'd appreciate it if you'd include a link to my website or mention the URL www.lisamhayes.com when you re-use my work. That's just good form when republishing someone else's content.
If you create a book or product based partly on my material, use your best judgment as to whether or not you feel I deserve an official credit for the content or ideas you used. It would be greatly appreciated and probably won't go unnoticed.
Integrity of the Work
Another aspect of moral rights is the right to preserve the integrity of the work.
It's fine with me if you want to edit some of my work, especially to shorten or simplify it. You can also include my work as part of a larger work with other contributors.
However, please do not attribute words to me that I didn't actually communicate, especially if it seems likely that I wouldn't agree with them.
Use Good Judgment
I encourage you to use my uncopyrighted material in creative and expansive ways. As you do so, please exercise good judgment. Don't create headaches for me by doing something sketchy or deceptive.
For example, don't make it look like I'm recommending or endorsing a product when I didn't explicitly do so. Don't quote me inaccurately. Don't try to pass off my personal stories as your own.
Making Money
You can make money off my work if you so desire. If you can introduce more people to ideas that will benefit them, I see no reason why you shouldn't be compensated for your efforts.
If you make money from my work, either from places we've gone in our coaching relationship or from material I've produced and made public, there's no obligation to pay me a portion of what you earn. However, if you feel good about doing so, I'd certainly be grateful if you did share some of the earnings, either on a regular basis or as an occasional donation. This makes it easier for me to sustain what I'm doing and to expand this work in new directions.
Why Am I Doing This?
I like helping people. Uncopyrighting my work makes it easier for people to share these ideas. I believe we can create more positive ripples this way.
I don't like fighting piracy. I'd rather spend my time creating and sharing fresh ideas instead of defending my past creations. Over the years people have made it obvious that they want to reshare, translate, and republish my work. I figure it makes more sense to see them as allies than as enemies.
Sharing my work is more important to me than owning it.

Tips for a Healthier Mouth (Pt.1)
Here at E.P. Dentistry 4 Kids we know that when it comes to keeping a whiter, healthier smile that we're not the only ones who play a role!
It's extremely important to be proactive about keeping your teeth clean if you want to maintain a healthy smile, so we've compiled a few tips for you to follow to make sure you're always doing your part in the battle against plaque, tooth decay, enamel decay, etc.
5 Tips to Maintain Healthy Teeth
Brush 2-3 Minutes
It may be repeated often, but brushing your teeth for the proper amount of time is crucial to keeping your teeth clean and avoiding unnecessary trips to the dentist's office.
We recommend 2-3 minutes of brushing. Certainly not any less, but not necessarily more either. It's good to balance the amount of scrubbing you do on your teeth daily.
Which leads us to our next tip…
Overbrushing, or not brushing your teeth enough, is more destructive than you might think.
Doing so can either cause your tooth enamel to be damaged over time, or if you're not brushing enough you're most likely collecting a lot of unwanted bacteria and plaque in your mouth, yuck!
It's recommended that adults and kids brush their teeth 1-2 times each day, but no more than 3!
Eat Crispy Vegetables/Fruits
Another healthy way to keep your smile shining is to be healthier in your diet! There are a multitude of fruits and vegetables that have the unique ability to scrub the surface of your teeth with their abrasive like properties and keep them clean throughout the day.
Some of these fruits and veggies include: apples, raw carrots, celery sticks, etc. You can even substitute non-buttered popcorn as it is also considered a "detergent" food.
So snack away! But don't forget about…
Mouthwashing After Snacks
One of the most important ways to keep your mouth healthy is to keep food from becoming lodged or stuck in between the teeth and gums.
Once stuck, the food collects more and more bacteria over time and increases your chance of developing minor cavities and plaque build-up in hard to reach areas.
The quickest way to remove food and build-up is to mouthwash once or twice daily in between major meals or after snacks.
Flossing works just as well, if not better, but if you feel something get stuck never just leave it be – grab a toothpick, some floss or rinse your mouth briefly to clean it out as soon as possible.
Create a Routine
There are so many tips to keep your teeth clean and avoid non-regular visits to your local dentist, but probably the most important of all is to develop a routine.
Making a habit out of when you brush your teeth, how often you floss, and paying mind to maintaining their beauty is essential to keeping them healthy throughout your lifetime.
Most of us brush both morning and night as we get in and out of bed, but for some this isn't always the most feasible routine. Find out what times work best for you to be able to properly brush and rinse and start making it a habit to do it daily at those times.
The goal is to make maintaining a healthy smile more of a subconscious activity than something you have to think about constantly in order to achieve!
These are just a few easy tips for being your own dentist while we're not in the picture!
We'll be back in our next blog with a few more so be on the lookout!
5 Reasons to use Your Dental Insurance Before the End of the Year
Did you know that you could actually save hundreds of dollars by using your dental benefits before the end of the year? While some dental insurance plans run on a fiscal year, most run on a calendar year. If your dental insurance plan is on a calendar year, these 5 reasons will show you why you should make a dental appointment now.
1. Yearly Maximum
The yearly maximum is the most money that the dental insurance plan will pay for your dental work within one full year. This amount varies by insurance company, but the average is around $1,000 per year, per person. The yearly maximum usually renews every year (on January 1 if your plan is on a calendar year). If you have unused benefits, these will not rollover.
2. Deductible
The deductible is the amount of money that you must pay to your dentist out of pocket before your insurance company will pay for any services. This fee varies from one plan to another however, the average deductible for a dental insurance plan is usually around $50 per year. Your deductible also starts again when your plan rolls over.
3. Premiums
If you are paying your dental insurance premiums every month, you should be using your benefits. Even if you don't need any dental treatment, you should always have your regular dental cleanings to help prevent and detect any early signs of cavities, gum disease, oral cancer and other dental problems.
4. Fee Increases / Changes in Coverage
Another reason to use your benefits before the end of the year are possible fee increases. Some policies raise the out of pocket costs and / or lower the covered benefits at the beginning of the year.
5. Dental Problems Can Worsen
By delaying dental treatment, you are risking more extensive and expensive treatment down the road. What may be a simple cavity now, could turn into a root canal later.
Use Up Your Existing FSA Contributions
Another good reason to take care of dental work now is to spend any remaining balance in your flexible spending account (FSA). This is an account that you establish through your employer, and that you may have elected to have some of your pre-tax pay put into. If you don't use all of your FSA contributions by the end of the year, you lose them.
Schedule your appointment now to ensure you are maximizing your benefits!

What are the side effects of poor oral health?
Greetings again! I'd like to discuss a topic that will help educate all the parents out there. That topic is the potential side effects of poor oral health. There is a misunderstanding by a portion of people that the worst case scenario for not taking care of your kid's teeth is a mouthful of cavities. As bad as that is, the real consequences of poor oral health can be much, much worse.
Rather than reinvent the wheel, I have included an out take from a Texas publication that summarized the potential side effects very well. I like this more than most other reports because it breaks down the side effects into three different categories: economic, medical and social. The report is called "Can Texas Afford Not To Care About Oral Health" and can be found at this link. I've highlighted the portions that are most applicable to children.
1. Economic consequences of untreated oral disease. Untreated oral disease has serious economic consequences. The surgeon general estimates that children with oral disease miss over 51 million hours of school each year. Missing school not only disrupts student learning, it also directly affects local school funding, since the amount of state dollars a school in Texas receives is based in part on weighted average daily attendance. Untreated dental disease is extremely painful and affects a person's productivity at work. According to the surgeon general, employed adults lose an estimated 164 million hours of work due to oral health problems or dental visits each year. What's more, adults with visible dental problems are less employable and sometimes reluctant to seek employment because they are simply ashamed to open their mouths. Untreated oral diseases can also drive up health care costs in general. Left untreated, certain dental infections can become systemic and damage other parts of the body, resulting in the need for expensive emergency department visits, hospital stays, anesthesia and antibiotics.
2. Medical consequences of untreated oral disease. Failure to treat oral diseases costs more than money. It can also seriously compromise a person's general health and quality of life. The good news is that most oral diseases are preventable. The bad news is that left untreated, dental infections can enter the bloodstream and lead to serious and occasionally life threatening conditions. In fact, the International Classification of Diseases lists more than 120 systemic diseases that come from the oral cavity. Although the health care system often treats the mouth as separate and apart from the rest of the body, oral and general health are closely linked. What happens in the mouth can and does affect what happens in other parts of the body. An ever-expanding body of research supports possible associations between oral disease (particularly gum disease) and medical conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, stroke and bacterial pneumonia. Researchers have also found evidence of the vertical transmission of bacteria causing oral disease between caregivers and very young children. And the mouth is increasingly being used to help identify other health conditions throughout the body, such as early stages of diabetes.
Tooth decay is the most common chronic disease among American children, causing unnecessary pain, avoidable facial disfigurement and rarely but tragically, life-threatening infections. Early Childhood Caries (cavities among 2- to 5-year olds, also known as ECC) are increasingly common. According to the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, "not only does ECC affect teeth, but consequences of this disease may lead to more widespread health issues." Oral problems can also dramatically affect babies and toddlers with untreated cleft lip / palate (a congenital birth defect). Structural problems and chronic pain caused by the cleft lip/palate can make eating painful — inhibiting healthy growth and sometimes resulting in a condition known as "failure to thrive."
3. Social consequences of untreated oral disease. Although difficult to quantify, the social consequences of poor oral health are also important. Children with untreated oral disease often have difficulty eating, speaking and sleeping. They may be ashamed of their appearance and have a hard time interacting with their peers. What's more, children with pain from untreated cavities or other dental conditions may be distracted in school and unable to learn or participate. One study even found a link between oral health problems and low self-esteem, teen delinquency and adolescent pregnancy. Adults with visible dental problems also suffer. As described earlier, many are reluctant to seek employment because of how they look or sound when they try to speak.
Wow…that may be a lot to take in. How about some good news to make you feel better? That's easy. How about three simple steps to minimize the chance of your children having to deal with any of the problems listed above? OK…here they are: brush, floss and see your dentist every six months. It's as easy as that.
Hopefully, you found this information educational. If you'd like a discussion on any other topics, please feel free to send them to me at email@example.com.
Dr. Brad Roberts
Welcome to EP Dentistry 4 Kids
Greetings everyone. Our hope in starting this blog is to offer our insights on interesting topics and trends in children's dentistry as well as some insight into our philosophy on that same topic.
If you are a parent, you may have noticed some rather dramatic changes in the industry over the past decade especially for those on some form of Medicaid/AHCCCS. Access to dentistry especially among the lower income had lots to be desired. This was highlighted in the 2000 report Oral Health in America: A Report of the Surgeon General (for complete report, go here). This report shined much-needed light on the "silent epidemic" of untreated oral disease — and affirmed the link between oral health and general health. A few years later in 2003, the government, health care providers and public health advocates released A National Call to Action to Promote Oral Health.
Many states responded to this government call to action by increasing funding for oral health. In addition, there was a concerted effort to find sign up additional providers especially in under served areas. To it's credit, Texas greatly increased it's attention which has resulted in many more dentists opening offices in our state. This is one of the reasons we at EP Dentistry 4 Kids opened our first office in 2008.
Since opening our first office on Dyer Street in 2008, we've opened up two additional offices. First the office on Zaragosa in early 2009 and, more recently, the office on Mesa and Sunland Park in early 2011. We truly enjoy serving the El Paso community and appreciate everyone that considers us their dentist.
A few of us will be writing on this blog about a variety of subjects that will help you better understand who we are and help explain various topics related to children's dentistry. Some of the topics will include possible side effects from poor oral health, explanation of changes to various insurance plans, and our philosophy on patient service and satisfaction just to name a few.
If there are any subjects you are interested in us discussing, please contact us via e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com. We'll do our best to respond in a timely manner.
Thanks for taking the time to read our blog. Hope you enjoyed it and found it informative.

PLM landscapes consist of clusters of applications, platforms and technologies to meet operational needs. Amidst changing business dynamics, it is critical that IT departments have a holistic perspective of enhancements to these applications, platforms and technologies. The PLM environment is often characterized by complex dependencies. A singular or myopic view of this environment could impact the effectiveness of all PLM applications, leading to unrealized PLM benefits.
It is critical that IT departments have a holistic perspective of enhancements to the PLM applications, platforms and technologies
The following are examples of problems our customers have experienced. If these sound familiar to you, they could be good indicators that operational improvements would benefit your PLM environment:
- Loss of valuable time due to inaccurate reports from incorrect data (Poor Data Quality)
- Delay in release of simple feature modifications (Release Delays)
- Critical and simple features missed during release, or key elements missing from deployed features (Release Quality)
- SMEs divert time to testing PLM applications from their core activities (Testing Issues)
- CAD users spend too much time querying data; Remote users suffer from poor system performance (Poor System Performance)
- Unsure of whether or when to archive old data; outdated data limiting global collaborations (Management of Historic Data)
Through consulting and application of PLM best practices, Geometric's optimization services unearth issues that are unknown or considered trivial from a holistic perspective. Customers who have utilized our optimization services have realized increases in operational effectiveness of up to 20%, in terms of optimized time and data quality.

It has been observed that children can take advantage of this treatment method starting from birth till throughout the childhood. Handling a child with ADHD in your house can be a problematic work but it has been observed that chiropractic treatment can help a lot with the symptoms of ADHD.

Children suffering from the problem of ADHD or attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder can act out in various ways. They may control themselves, not obey commands and bully other children. These children might get violent and may have rough behavior like throwing things around.

According to a survey by American Chiropractic Association in 1991, the number of chiropractic patients of sixteen years of age and younger has increased to 8.5%. Chiropractic services is the most common alternative method of treatment performed on children and it is completely safe.

A study conducted in 1975 compared the effect of chiropractic treatment and drugs in children suffering from ADHD. The study showed that chiropractic services was twenty four percent more effective than normal drug prescription. It worked over the wide range of symptoms which are common in neurological dysfunction syndrome. So, chiropractic treatment works good with children having ADHD.

It has been observed that children who suffer from the problem of ADHD have successful results with chiropractic treatment. It has also been noticed that children who have vertebral subluxation and do not show any symptoms of ADHD should still have chiropractic services. The best method of treatment in case of ADHD is chiropractic services. It is completely natural and so it does not have any side effects. This makes it very safe for your child. With proper treatment and care, the symptoms of this condition can be helped to a great degree.santa barbara chiropractor - dr.zemellahttps://email@example.com

LA Music Video Festival Best Animated Video
Noah J Nelson on Tuesday, May. 7th
This week we'll be featuring the work of the winners of the Los Angeles Music Video Festival.
Toys. Who doesn't have found memories of toys? Happy little teddy bears and wholesome dollies.
I'd put even money on director Christopher Ullens having some issues with toys based on this video for the Two Finger's track"Vengeance Rhythm".
Fair warning: while the violence in this video–which won the Best Animated Video award at the LAMVF this past weekend–is cartoonishly over-the-top it is also exceptionally graphic.
Enough that I'm putting the video after the jump…

Hello CMOORE4753,
I'm assuming this is training that you want to develop in-house training for your movie theater business vs. using an outside training program. To develop a successful training program, I would recommend using a model for best practice. I tend to follow the ADDIE model. Please see my blog article on how to use the ADDIE model for a successful training program:
I hope it helps, and I wish you good luck with your training.

Julianne Moore's Beauty Secrets for Looking Beautiful Over 40
I am always in awe when I see photographs of Julianne Moore.
Her Celtic alabaster skin, set against her fiery red head of hair, is fabulously fair and translucent. At age 52, Julianne's complexion is better than an average mid-30 year old. Which means, her skin has not aged since the late 70s!
This ageless beauty is surprisingly fuss-free about aging. She is famously known for giving the impression that whatever age she is at the time, is the perfect age to be. Over the years, many in Hollywood have asked her to reveal her anti-aging beauty secrets.
After digging through a collection of interview archives, I discovered her top 3 beauty secret weapons (most often quoted) for keeping that famed flawless complexion.
Secret Unveiled #1: Natural Skincare
Julianne is an eco-friendly beauty who uses natural skin care products. One brand she loves is Burt's Bees (read Women Who Launch: Burt's Bees). Their moisturizers and lip balms can be found in her beauty bag. Often photographed with a clean fresh and bare face, she attempts to go au-naturale as much as possible. Some of her beauty skincare tips include: avoid excessive makeup, live a green lifestyle and use natural skincare products (exactly what this blog is about!).
Secret Unveiled #2: Avoid the Sun
She has been quoted to say – if she could give one advice to every young person she knows, it would be 'Stay out of the sun!'. Since her mid-twenties, Julianne has been faithfully applying sunscreen to her fair and porcelain skin. And she always walks on the shady side of the street.
Secret Unveiled #3: Diet & Exercise
Yoga and pilates are her two secret weapons for maintaining her ideal weight and toned slender physique. She does Ashtanga yoga three times a week. 'Yoga gives me time to zone out' she was once quoted. For someone who claims to be hungry all the time yet hates dieting, she constantly battles with her self-confessed boring diet of yogurt, cereal and granola bars. She enjoys home-cooked meals and practices the old-fashioned method of limiting calorie-intake by portion control.

Sometimes the "high" just comes one day and i attempt to get all of the things done, while i have the energy to do it.
This is Day 2.5 and i am feeling good about what i have been accomplishing. Do you notice it is always those "little" things that make you sit back and smile?
Last night we were at a small get together we set up because we are stuck here instead of going to the City. Work made sure of that for both us, Sir works today, and i am on call for the weekend. It was good to catch up with people we haven't seen for a while and just have a night to relax and good conversation.
It was a bonus that we went somewhere that was stumbling distance from home. It was nice to walk to and from the place. It helped slow me down a touch.
Oh, i am excited – i have finally hung up Einstein. I thought to tell Sir because well it has been bugging me for a while.
The conversation went like this:
me: okay – I have been attempting to hang Einstein… I think I did it… I pray it doesn't fall down LoL
Sir: OK I had to read that twice….. I thought you were talking about the cat. jesus.
me: ummm Love… i am not that barbaric
By the way, just to make this clear – this is the Einstein i am referring to:
If you knew how much i loved Einstein, you would understand why this is a good thing 🙂
i wandered outside in the yard today, because it is absolutely beautiful out there. i had charged up the weed wacker the other day in prep for some "wacking of the weeds". The stairs to the decks, and fence are free of tall grass blades, thistles (ow), and whatever else was popping out of the ground.
The desk i sit at is finally clear of the stacked books (both sides). They have been catalogued, sorted, and put away. There is a box of doubles, triples and "meh" i don't need/want these started. There are still a couple or four boxes to get through yet. It does mean we require a bookcase or two to home them…however i don't think that is all that bad.
The chaos that was the desk is now clear. This was one of those things that needed to be tackled sooner than later. It has lighten my brain more than anything else.
The Desk:
This is just a small sampling of what i have been doing to occupy my brain to help it relax. Unfortunately, reading and even writing is hard to do right now, as my brain is going in full throttle at the moment. i have backspaced so many times… (click, click, click) it is giving me a headache attempting to write coherently. When i am like this i need to document something so I know when i am in the "zone".
Well, i hear that the microwave of dinged! and the chicken breasts are likely thawed. i should go and figure out what supper will consist of.
Talk to you later!

The Look: South American Aristocrat.
The Makeup: Tom Pecheux once again embraced the signature, fresh-faced beauty of the Lauren woman, adding a subtle twist with black eyeliner in the outer corners. He used a Sharpie-like eyeliner, an Estée Lauder prototype that, he says, "doesn't transfer and looks freshly applied all day long". Brows were lightly filled, with a sweep of black mascara used to finish the eyes. M.A.C. Cosmetics Powder Blush in Fleur Power (a pink-coral) dressed the cheeks. The blush was also mixed with colorless balm and dabbed on the lips.
The Hair: "The look is inspired by the gaucho; it's a bit Argentinian," says the stylist Guido Palau. "We've done a very smart, center-parted knot chignon to work with all the hats." Redken Satinwear 02 Ultimate Blow-Dry Lotion was applied before blow-drying the hair straight and pulling it back. A mist of Redken Fashion Work 12 Hairspray helped to calm fly-aways and short hairs, with the brand's Shine Flash 02 Glistening Mist used to add a healthy sheen.
The Nails: The manicurist Elisa Ferri used a custom mixture of Essie and Zoya polishes to achieve the delicate, pearlescent cream-beige on models' fingertips.
The Takeaway: "The hair looks we've seen in New York this season are very true to the city; great, simple ways of wearing your hair in real life," Palau says.

This week, hacktivist group Anonymous declared war on ISIS and then quickly took down over 5,500 Twitter accounts that were attributed to the terrorists.
Anonymous spokesman Alex Poucher told RT that, ?Our capability to take down ISIS is a direct result of our collective's sophisticated hackers, data miners, and spies that we have all around the world. We have people very, very close to ISIS on the ground, which makes gathering intel about ISIS and related activities very easy for us.?
Poucher said that the group's resources ?might be better than any world government's tools to combat ISIS online.?
?They picked a fight with Anonymous when they attacked Paris, and now they should expect us. We will not sit by and watch these terror attacks unfold around the world,? he added.
It seems that ISIS may have underestimated anonymous, finding themselves with their media accounts disabled after calling the group "idiots" in a recent statement.
Not only did they take down the Twitter accounts, but they also plan on leaking the names of the owners.
Anonymous has become a strong force of social change as they have grown in recent years and learned to focus their many skills and resources towards efforts of peace and empowerment. Affiliation with Anonymous is extremely risky as a result, as we have seen hacktivists like?Jeremy Hammond and journalists like?Barrett Brown receive steep prison sentences due to their involvement with the group.
It will be interesting to see what Anonymous has planned in their new "war" against ISIS.
We report that more than 5500 Twitter account of #ISIS are now #down! #OpParis #Anonymous #ExpectUs

While there are many guidelines and tools to support those conducting evaluations, there are far fewer resources specifically focused on commissioners and managers of evaluation.
Yet we know that evaluation capacity depends on the quality of the demand for evaluation as well as the quality of the supply of evaluation. In particular, the appropriateness and comprehensiveness of the Terms of Reference are critically important, whether an evaluation is conducted externally or internally.
To meet this need, BetterEvaluation has partnered with the International Development Research Centre to create the Managers' Guide to Evaluation and the GeneraTOR.
The Guide provides a clear and systematic guide for managers, with links to further detail and examples as required. In addition, it incorporates a GeneraTOR which prompts for particular information to produce a draft Terms of Reference document which can be shared, reviewed and finalised with other stakeholders.
Quick link to the Guide
Thanks to the International Development Research Centre, the Guide and the integrated GeneraTOR can be accessed freely through the BetterEvaluation Site. You can access the English version of the guide here and the Français ici.
How to access the GeneraTOR:
The Generator sits within Step 3 of the Managers' Guide: Develop the Terms of Reference (ToR).
To access the GeneraTOR you will need to sign in as a BetterEvaluation member, which is also free. Login to your BetterEvaluation account and hit the "GeneraTOR" tab on your profile page. (You can join BetterEvaluation here if you aren't already a member).

In what can safely be described as one of the least surprising news conferences of the year, Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn announced today that he will run for reelection. I mean, it's not like it was a secret or anything.
Still, an enthusiastic crowd of supporters and a gaggle of reporters packed into a small, hot room at the Filipino Community Center to hear McGinn tell them what he'd already told Dom: "I'm here to announce I'm running for reelection for mayor!" Cue the applause.
Of course, there's never much news at "news conferences" like this, but there was certainly a lot of color, demonstrating the strong support that McGinn still maintains in many of Seattle's minority communities. Campaign co-chair and El Centro De La Raza executive director Estela Ortega emceed the event, describing McGinn as "the first mayor who has come into communities of color and asked us what our needs are." Take that, Norm Rice.
For a city with a reputation for being one of the whitest in America, you certainly wouldn't know it from the folks in the room. McGinn won big in 2009 within the immigrant and minority communities of Southeast Seattle, and he may have to run even stronger here to have a hope of winning reelection. It's a base that none of his challengers (so far) can lay claim to, one that consultants and pundits ignore at their peril when handicapping this race.
When McGinn finally took the podium from his co-chairs he launched into a recitation of his accomplishments as mayor, a list that some people might find surprisingly long. Yeah, I know, McGinn's administration has supposedly been a "disaster." That's the narrative his opponents take for granted. But actually, Seattle has done quite well during his tenure.
While the county and state (and much of the rest of the nation) are still struggling to make ends meet, McGinn has consistently balanced the city budget without major cuts to social or other services, and without the bitter political wrangling we're accustomed to seeing elsewhere. Seattle is even on target to rebuilding its rainy day fund to pre-Great Recession levels. Not bad. And during McGinn's term in office, home prices, employment, manufacturing, and tax revenues have all increased faster than the national average.
Not exactly a disaster.
Sure, McGinn failed to block the tunnel, but he surrendered graciously once the people spoke at the polls. And it's certainly fair to criticize McGinn for failing to adequately address the cultural and management problems at SPD. There were also a handful of early initiatives (seawall and transit come to mind) that the council swiftly killed.
But after a year or so McGinn seemed to learn the ropes, and his accomplishments since then have been many, including a doubling of the Families and Education Levy, passage of Seawall and Library levies, and his shepherding of the Sodo arena deal that now looks likely to bring the Sonics back to Seattle for the 2013-2014 season. Add in the sick-leave ordinance, the mayor's veto of aggressive panhandling legislation, and successful starts to his school attendance and broadband initiatives, and McGinn starts to look quite accomplished.
As for the future, McGinn laid out a handful of priorities for his second term, including finding a Seattle-funded source (separate from Sound Transit) for investing in a transit infrastructure, and an initiative near and dear to my heart: A new early learning initiative aimed at gradually implementing universal access to high-quality preschool for all of Seattle's children. If the state as a whole won't fund this obvious reform, we should do it ourselves, I figure. And apparently the mayor agrees.
I know the conventional wisdom is that McGinn is "embattled," and that the odds are against him winning reelection. But at today's news conference he didn't have the feel of a politician who was beat.
McGinn won in 2009 not on the basis of his ideas—voters ultimately rejected his trademark issue—but because he was the only candidate to run with the support of an actual grassroots base. And judging from the people who packed the room today, that base is largely intact.

Face it. When you become a parent, all bets are off for any last shred of privacy you once had. Gone are the days when you got to lavishly sleep in on the weekends or binge watch your favorite series for hours on end in your pajamas. But most parents would agree that every single moment shared with your wondrous little blessing of a child is far better than any empty amount of time once spent on mindless activities.
All of the hugs, kisses and cuddles that now fill up your days are the stuff that parenting dreams are made of. And documenting and sharing each one of these precious moments on social media can create a sweet little time capsule for you to treasure forever.
For popular mom blogger, Sophie Cachia, this is par for the course. She fills up her Instagram with tons of photos of her daily life and her huge fan following just can't get enough. But it was a recent photo she shared of a seemingly innocent hug between she and her son that got everyone in an uproar.

text: To allow people to contact me, I used to do a foolish thing: I put my email address at the bottom of every page in my WEB site. This allowed WEB crawlers to "mine" my email address and sell it to all the SPAMmers in the world. This means that I get 100's of ads in my email from people trying to sell me crap or get me to look at their porn sites. I put up with it in the early days of the Internet when there wasn't so much of it and I could just hit delete. As things got worse I wrote my own SPAM detector with several layers of defense. Any email from someone I don't know is stopped at the server. I look at the list of blocked emails every few days and sometimes find messages that I want and unblock them. I probably missed quite a few of them. I added an offensive word filter so I don't have to read so many disgusting subject lines. Those emails are now tossed out and I never even have to read the subject. You can try to email me, but until now your message might not pass the gauntlet.

Thanks to some wise words from Derek Sivers, I have decided that since writing is what I love to do, more of it shall be done. Showing the messy process of our 'art', recording lessons and useful findings along the way, is after all, an incredibly easy way to share.
I can't necessarily produce good writing, nor perfectly edited writing, nor funny or wise
writing. But I can certainly do my best to write what I observe in the day and record lessons learnt on my journey to ever more presence.
My presumptuous hope is that perhaps one day another soul might stumble upon those words and may find them to be of some use to them. Whether it be through my own musings or through my observations of other inspiring people such as Derek Sivers, Tim Ferriss, Seth Godin or the host of other legends that move me to soldier on towards self mastery; I sincerely wish that even just one other person will reach the same conclusion that I have.
That whatever they are going through, there is another soul on this planet that is probably also wading through something similar.
This is what I am learning. This is what I would love to teach. Let's learn from each other.
All hail the age of 'online' learning!

Croatia's national and nature parks on new single web site
All eight national and eleven nature parks in Croatia can now be found on a single web site providing information for visitors, the Environment and Nature Protection Ministry told a press conference on Wednesday.
The web site - www.parkovihrvatske.hr - is available in Croatian, English, German and Italian. The project was prepared as part of the PARCS project conducted over the past two years by the UN Development Programme (UNDP) in Croatia and the ministry with a grant from the Global Environmental Fund (GEF), the head of Croatia's UNDP office, Sandra Vlasic, said and added that the value of the grant for the entire project, to continue until the end of 2017, was almost five million dollars.
The web site contains information about more than 800 various activities, more than 900 photographs and information about more than 1,000 walking tracks and locations, Vlasic said, adding that this was virtually an open invitation for visitors to visit Croatia's parks. The web site will also provide the opportunity for on-line purchasing of entry tickets for parks.
PARCS project leader at the UNDP Valentina Futac explained that the new site would at the same time provide information via a Facebook profile - 'Parkovi Hrvatske'.
The web site will be officially launched on Saturday, 19 March from 11 am to 3 pm in Zagreb's Zrinjevac park and all 19 national and nature parks will present themselves at special exhibition stalls. (Hina/FaH)

In the first of a series exploring what adventure means today, freediver and ocean conservationist Hanli Prinsloo explains how the ocean can offer an escape from digital life.
For me, adventure is synonymous with nature because that's where we get to be wild and playful outside of urban constraints, away from the devices and everything that tames us. 70% of our planet is ocean and remains very much unexplored and unmapped, so adventure in the 21st century has to happen in the ocean as it is one of our last truly wild places.
Research has helped encourage an understanding that with just a mask and snorkel you can explore incredible places underwater. There has been a great increase in the number of people entering the ocean, on the ocean's terms, and exploring for the pure joy of it, as opposed to planned, methodical expeditions.
Freediving is an adventure into the self and self-knowledge, as well as into the wilderness of the ocean. People are attracted to the stillness of freediving as well as how easy it makes to explore what lies beneath the surface. Today there is an ever increasing need for people to feel connected to something greater than themselves and escape the fragmented way of life in cities. Nature really is an antidote to the modern world.
Over the past five years I have been sharing the ocean with others through a conservation organisation. The remarkable thing is that it doesn't matter who the person is – it's the same lighting up of the eyes and the same transformation that happens when people have that experience underwater. Even though one can be tempted to feel that there isn't that much left to explore, everything I do proves that the opposite is true.

Living Off The Grid By Teaching Abroad In Jordan
A normal summer for me throughout high school and college never involved long, lazy days at the beach or weekend trips to the Appalachian Mountains. For years now, summer vacations were spent abroad with a group of American students to study and live in a foreign culture. But the summer of 2012, I decided to [...]

1 One minute we were sound asleep, warm and safe in our box. The next, we were upside-down, falling. All of us. My whole family. We're pencils, and as I'm sure you know, we're not good at holding on.

One minute we were sound asleep, warm and safe in our box. The next, we were upside-down, falling. All of us. My whole family. We're pencils, and as I'm sure you know, we're not good at holding on.
There went Orange Todd. I watched him fall, eraser end first. I could hear the others shouting as they fell, down… down… until…
Thud. Thud. Bonk.
We landed on something flat and hard, as well as each other.
"Ouch, my eraser," Purple Gloria said.
"Dude, get off me," Bucky, my blue-green brother said.
I looked around. Everything was so different from what I was used to. We had landed on a large, brown area. Over in the corner was a stack of thin, white rectangles. I could see our box in the distance and wished I was in it.
"What is going on? Where are we?" I asked, rolling off of Red Sean.
"Is everybody okay? Did somebody forget to shut the box?"
"I did not leave the top open," Orange Todd said, bumping against me. "Why does everybody always blame me?"
"Todd." I rolled a little to get away. "I wasn't saying that you―"
Right then, a shadow fell over us all.
Ahhhhh!" All twelve of us screamed together. I never saw such a scary thing. Okay, so I've been in a box all my life. But trust me, it was still pretty bad.
I couldn't take my eyes off of it. The thing was huge and so weird looking, all lumpy and pink with big clumps of stringy yellow stuff on the top. So gross.
I squeezed my eyes shut and whispered, "Okay, when I open my eyes, we'll all be back in the box."
Lame, right? As you probably guessed, I opened my eyes, and the monster was still there, staring down at us with giant eyes the size of ―I don't know ― giant eyes.
"It's going to eat us!" Green Theresa, who happened to be closest to the thing, fainted. The poor thing. I didn't blame her. What else could she do? What could any of us do?
"What if it wants to bite our erasers off?" My blue brother, Tyson, rolled against Brown Kerry's side, hiding his face.
"Like I can protect you," Kerry said, rolling her eyes.
We were all helpless. What would happen to me? To my family?
"My name is Mike," The number two called out. bumping against me. "Why does everybody always blame me?"
"Calm down. It's not going to eat anybody," said a far away voice. I rolled over to see who it was.
On the other end of the big rectangle we had been dumped out on was a yellow pencil, the kind with the pink eraser. It was odd how calm he was. While we were all screaming and rolling around, that yellow guy just laid there, smiling.
"You folks are new here, aren't you?" He seemed friendly enough. Why wasn't he freaking out like the rest of us? "Shhh," I hissed. "It will hear you." "Oh, don't worry about that," Mike said with an even bigger smile than before. "They're way too busy to ever notice anything we have to say." "So, is the monster going to hurt us?" Blue Tyson asked. Yeah, was it? "Hurt us? No way. He likes pencils and he's not a monster." " I moved a little closer to Mike."You're kidding, right ? That's the ugliest thing I've ever seen. How can it not be a monster?" "I understand
what you guys are
going through," Mike
said. "I was scared
too, at first. You just
have to get used to him.
His name is Joey. He's
really not so bad.
Look at him again.
"Don't talk to him," whispered Purple Gloria and she turned her back to him. "He's just a regular old number two. Act like you don't hear him."
2 bumping against me. "Why does everybody always blame me?"
"Okay, I'm looking," I said, narrowing my eyes at the creature. "Is that opening under that big lumpy thing a smile?"
"Yes, it is."
"Okay, so maybe it's smiling because it's planning to eat us?" Blue Tyson suggested.
The thought did not make me feel any better.
"No, that's not it at all. They like us. We're very important to them."
"Yeah, for food." Red Sean said.
"No, you're wrong," Mike sighed. "Humans would never even think of eating a pencil."
"How do you know so much about these things?" I asked.
"Well, I'm the last pencil in a pack of twenty-four. When you've been around as long as I have, you learn some things."
Green Theresa woke up and joined us. "The last? But what happened to the rest of the pencils in your box?"
"Yeah," Brown Kerry said. "Where is your family?" "They got eaten!" Green Theresa said. And with that, she fainted once again.
"They did not get eaten." Mike bumped up against my sleeping sister, trying to wake her. "If you'd just let me explain…"
Before he could finish, something came up from beneath the edge of the rectangle we were lying on. I could not believe my eyes, so if you don't believe me now, I understand. Large and pinkish with five long things sticking outof it, the thing made no sound as it moved through the air above us. It grew from the end of a long tube-like sort of thing.
"What the heck is that?" I said. None of my bunch knew. We just gawked at it, frozen with fear. Green Theresa woke up, just as the pink thing passed above us. I think she may have stayed awake for two seconds that time.
The thing came down and pushed aside everybody that had been lying on top of those thin, white rectangles. So far, it hadn't eaten anybody, but I still didn't trust it.
"That white stuff is called paper," Mike told us. "They use a lot of it."
The thing used two of the five long pointy things to pick up one piece of paper and set it down a short distance away.
"Don't worry, it won't hurt us," Mike said. "They use those to pick up things―pencils too. They're called "hands". Those five long things are called fingers. All of the humans have them."
"Hands?" Purple Gloria said. "It sounds like they would be really useful."
"Yes, they are. Humans do all sorts of things with them," Mike said.
What a strange day. One minute we're all sleeping, warm and quiet in our nice, dark box. The next, we're out in the bright light watching a lumpy, pink giant pick up something called "paper" with its "fingers."
The hand hung in the air above Mike for a second. Then, to our shock, it came down and wrapped its fingers all around him.
"Oh boy," Mike said with a wide grin. "Now watch what happens. This is going to be so cool."
If it had been me, I know I would have screamed like my sister Theresa.
"I just knew those things couldn't be trusted," Purple Gloria said.
"It's okay," he said as the hand carried him away. "You'll see."
But what had they done to him?
"So what do you think?" he asked.
Everyone gathered around Mike, wide eyed and smiling. Everyone but me.
"Wow. Did it hurt?" Red Sean asked.
"Not at all. It looks good, right?" Mike rolled over so we could see the back.
bump. "It's new, modern ― different. Sharp is the new flat."
I couldn't believe it. Everyone gathered around Mike, asking him questions. But not me, so I was the only one who noticed when the hand came back and grabbed our brother, Blue Tyson.
"Hey Guys, I uh …" Tyson was gone before he could finish. It all happened so fast, but really, what could I have done?
Would Blue Tyson come back sharp too? It was too much for me to take. I started rocking back and forth, crying.
"This is a nightmare. We're all doomed."
"What's wrong with the rainbow colored guy?" Mike asked.
"Oh, that's just Gerald," Brown Kerry said. "Don't worry about him. If it was up to Gerald, he'd stay inside the box forever. He doesn't do well with change."
"That's not true," I said, but nobody listened. They just kept asking Mike questions about how it felt to get sharpened. The girls were ridiculous. What flirts. Green Theresa was the worst of them. She rolled herself right up beside Mike, batting her eyelashes right in his face.
I bumped up against her. "What are you doing, Theresa? A few minutes ago you didn't even want me to talk to him."
The others were no better. Either they were just too dumb to understand, or they just didn't care.
Brown Kerry rolled over and bumped up against me. "Gerald, everybody else thinks Mike looks great. Don't you want to get your tip sharpened too?"
He was sharp. Mike's tip was sharp. Pointy!
"I can see your lead," I gasped and looked away.
"Yeah, awesome, isn't it?" Mike said. "I wish I could see it."
The other pencils crowded past me to get a better look.
Mike's grin was so big the sides of his mouth almost came together in the back.
"You look so cool," Purple Gloria said, batting her eyelashes.
"I just love the new look," Green Theresa said.
"His tip is sharp," I said. "Are you all crazy? It's just not right."
"Come on, Gerald," Green Theresa said giving me a
"You are all nuts," I said. At that moment my anger won out over my fear. For the first time I took control of my life. "Well, I'm not just going to lay here and let some monster sharpen my tip. I like it just the way it is. The way it's supposed to be. Flat." And with that, I, Gerald the Rainbow Colored Pencil, did the bravest thing I had ever done. I began by rocking back and forth, harder than ever. Soon I found that if I rocked hard enough I could roll pretty far. Purple Gloria laughed nervously. "Uh, Gerald…what are you doing?" "Leaving!" I rolled some more. "Who's coming with me?" "But where would we go?" Red Sean asked, sobbing. "Someplace where pencils are safe from giants," I answered, even though I had no idea where that was. Everyone rolled towards me. Great, I thought. We'll all find a new home together. "Please don't go, Gerald," Green Theresa said. I could see the sadness on their faces. I was wrong. They weren't coming with me. I pushed past Bucky. "I won't be sharpened, so don't try and stop me," I shouted.When I reached the edge, I turned to give them one last chance. "Please come with me." They all looked at each other, but none came forward. "We're scared, Gerald," Brown Kerry said. "We have no idea what's out there."
Sure. I understood. I didn't know. But I sure knew what would happen if I stayed. "I love you guys. And I'm going to miss you, but I have to go," I said. "Last chance. Who's coming with me?" None moved to join me. "Gerald?" Red Sean called.With a sigh, I gave one final push and rolled right off the edge.
"Tyson," I called out. "Are you alright?" anger won out over my fear. For the first time I took control of my life. "Well, I'm not just going to lay here and let some monster sharpen my tip. I like it just the way it is. The way it's supposed to be. Flat." And with that, I, Gerald the Rainbow Colored Pencil, did the bravest thing I had ever done. I began by rocking back and forth, harder than ever. Soon I found that if I rocked hard enough I could roll pretty far.
He had been put down with the others, so I couldn't see him anymore.
But he could hear me, and shouted back an answer, "I'm sharp now Gerald." Those four words chilled me down to the lead.
"They're never going to get me!" I shouted back, and I rolled with all my strength. Did I have any idea where I was going? Not a clue. This world was no place for a pencil. I felt smaller than ever.
Before I could get very far, a new hand swooped down and yanked me high into the air. This one was pretty much like the other one. It was part of a monster with all of the same kind of holes and lumps. The stuff on top was a different color, but besides that, I couldn't tell the difference.
It held me up to its face and looked me over. I could even see a little bit of the same green crust around the two little holes below its eyes, just like the other one had. What had Mike called it? Oh yeah, its "nose." I guessed that was normal for them. Gross.
"What are you doing out here all by yourself?" it asked me.
I hit the floor with a hard thunk, bouncing once on my tip and again on my eraser, smudging it. Oooff.
Even from there, I could hear them all gasp.
Then I heard a new, different voice.
"Hey, where did that rainbow colored pencil go? It was on my desk a second ago."
Okay, so I'd escaped the giant, but where was I? Moving onto my back, I looked around. You have to remember that up until a few minutes ago, I'd spent my whole life inside a pencil box. The place was huge.
High above me, the pink monster returned my brother, Blue Tyson, to the group. From this new angle I could see a lot more than before. The hand grew out of a long pink tube and that tube was part of the giant, Joey. He had two of them, one on each side. Amazing, right?
Poor Tyson. I could see his eraser and some blue sticking out from between the…What had Mike called them? Oh yeah, fingers. How did they come up with these words?
Good question, right? What was I doing there? anger won out over my fear. For the first time I took control of my life. "Well, I'm not just going to lay here and let some monster sharpen my tip. I like it just the way it is. The way it's supposed to be. Flat." And with that, I, Gerald the Rainbow Colored Pencil, did the bravest thing I had ever done. I began by rocking back and forth, harder than ever. Soon I found that if I rocked hard enough I could roll pretty far.But what was more important, what was this thing going to do to me? Being sharpened seemed horrible. But was that the worst thing that could happen to a pencil? Well, I'll say one thing for monsters, they can sure get around. Within seconds, we had traveled farther than I ever could have in days. Still, we never did get where he planned, because soon two more came along and blocked our way.
As it turns out, monsters come in all shapes and colors. Unlike the ones I'd seen so far, the stuff on top of these two was much longer. One of them was pink with orange topping, but the second one was different. Instead of being pink, it was a beautiful shade of brown, like my sister Kerry. And the top stuff was black and tied up into bunches with all sorts of red and yellow balls. A monster, but a colorful monster. "What you got there? Let me see," said the one with orange stuff on top. The three formed a circle around me. I could tell they didn't like each other right off. Sure, they were all smiling, but the smiles never reached their eyes. Were they going to fight over me? I imagined myself snapped in two on the floor. "Nice pencil, Geek," said the brown one. Geek. Should I remember his name? "Want some chocolate?" The brown one raised one of its hands. Between two of its fingers was a small, brown rectangle.
"Want some chocolate?" The brown one raised one of its hands. Between two of its fingers was a small, brown rectangle. "Sure," Geek said. His eyes narrowed, but his other hand, the one that wasn't holding me, slowly moved to get it. But just as Geek's fingers were about to grab hold, the hand yanked it away.
And do you know what that brown monster did next?
It ate it. In a flash, the monster shoved that chocolate right into its mouth and smashed it into a brown, juicy wad with those white things they all seem to have. Horrible, right? I hope it didn't suffer. If it could do that to chocolate, what could it do to me? I watched as Geek's own mouth fell open and his eyes grew wide.
Right away, the other two started making the oddest sounds. Maybe you're familiar with it, but it was new to me, sort of like, "Ha hahahaha." I have no idea what that meant.
Geek and I started to leave, but the orange one grabbed him.
"Yeah, that is a nice pencil," she said. "Too bad you don't know how to write."
Geek didn't like that. His mouth slammed shut and his eyes got all scrunched up.
"I wasn't going to use it to write anyway," Geek said.
Since I didn't know what "writing" was, that didn't make me feel any better.
"Well then, what are you going to do with it, Stupid?" asked the brown one. I guess some monsters have two names. This one was called both Stupid and Geek.
"Maybe he's going to eat it," said the orange one.
I did not like where this was going. I could still see some of that poor chocolate, all smashed up and wet, on the edge of the brown one's mouth.
Stupid Geek held me up to his face. He frowned at me… but then he frowned at them.
For a second, I thought he would open up his mouth and stuff me in. I closed my eyes.
"I'm going to do this," he said. Then he shoved my eraser right into one of those two nose holes.
Okay, so it didn't hurt, but it felt disgusting. My eraser was covered in sticky goo. What was that stuff?
Then, I understood. I had been stuck in there in order to feed something that lived way back inside the hole where no light reached. I opened my eyes wide, but couldn't see a thing. Although nothing touched me, I was sure that at any moment it would sneak up behind me and bite my eraser off.
Okay, I was probably in there for just a few seconds, but at the time it, felt like a lot longer. Funny, but what saved me was those two other monsters.
"Eeeeeew!" I could hear them yell.
Maybe pencils are not the kind of food "Hole Monsters" like. Maybe there was never a monster in there at all. That, I will never know, because as soon as they yelled, he pulled me right out. Covered in green goo, Stupid Geek held me out for the others to see.
"Eeeeeeeeeeew!" they squealed, even louder than before.
Smiling, Stupid Geek waved me around, poking me at the other two. Hundreds of flat, white things stood in his mouth.
"Don't touch me with that!" screamed the orange one as it slapped me away. "Yuck. You got it on my hand. …Missus Ploznick!"
"Don't," said the second one. It slapped at me too, and hard. It hurt, but in a way I was happy. That brown monster had hit me so hard I was free.

There are no restrictions on property investment for non-UK nationals, and property rights are guaranteed by registration at the Land Registry. Round-trip property transaction costs are relatively low in the UK, unless you are buying multi-million pound property. Property investment may be made through companies, although the UK has recently tried to discourage this in certain cases.
UK housing law is not harmonised, as there are four separate jurisdictions: England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.
The UK housing market is very unequal, and the gap has widened over the recent years. Broadly speaking, the UK is divided into three major areas: Northern Ireland, London and the South East, and the rest of Great Britain. An alternative view would focus on a "North-South divide", whereby the South West and East Anglia are amalgamated to London and the South East.
In Northern Ireland, property prices are very low (average price: £131,128 in Q1 2013), and the housing market has been under downside pressure since the 2008 crisis.
London and the South East are the most expensive regions of the UK (average price: £454,644 and £273,766 respectively in Q1 2013). Although prices have fallen in 2008-2009, the upward trend has resumed since then.
In the rest of Great Britain, the picture is rather mixed and market trend analysis should be made on a case-by-case basis. Average property prices range from £139,082 in the North to £220,532 in the South West (Q1 2013).
An expat should understand the concept of "leasehold" prior to going ahead with a property purchase. In some countries, the residential real estate market consists almost exclusively of freeholds. In the UK, there are freeholds and leaseholds on the residential property market.
If you have a freehold, you have full ownership over your property.
If you have a leasehold, you are the lessee of the freeholder (the "lessor" or the "landlord"). A leaseholder must pay:
Additional charges may apply for certain items not covered by service charges. These include contributions towards buildings insurance and major works (sinking fund).
Although leaseholds are like tenancies, they spread over a very long period (typically 99 to 999 years), the ground rent is minimal, and service charges paid by leaseholders are not necessarily any different from the expenses they would have incurred as freeholders. Therefore, leaseholders may have the illusion that they are the ultimate owner of their property, even though it will eventually return to the freeholder unless you have a right to do otherwise. For more information on leaseholders' rights, click here.
You should always check whether you are buying a leasehold or a freehold. You may easily end up being sold a leasehold for the price of a freehold, especially if the tenure is very long. Nonetheless, don't forget that the value of a leasehold erodes over time. Typically, you enter red territory when your lease matures within less than 70 years.
Get your documentation right before applying for a mortgage.
It might be tricky for expatriates to take out a UK mortgage, as lenders require documentation which isn't necessarily available for non permanent resident individuals. The task gets even harder if you are a non-UK resident and you wish to buy UK property.
However, some lenders appreciate that there is high demand from individuals who have an overseas element in their application. Therefore, the first thing to do is to look for a lender who is willing to offer its services to you. Alternatively, your wealth manager might be able to help you in the mortgage application process. See Wealth Management for Expats in the UK.
UK lenders offer fixed and variable rate mortgages, remortgages, buy-to-let mortgages, offset mortgages, and many other specialist mortgages.
An offset mortgage (or a current account mortgages) is a product whereby your savings may "offset" your outstanding balance. Consequently, an offset mortgage is a high-yield, tax-efficient savings product. An offset mortgage doesn't necessarily come with higher interest rates or fees, as compared with non-offset mortgages.
Sue has taken out a 25-year 5% offset mortgage in 2010. She initially borrowed £200,000. Three years later, Sue has repaid £20,000, which is in line with her repayment schedule. However, she has sold her car for £10,000, and she decides to invest the proceeds in her offset mortgage.
Interest will be calculated on £170,000. In other words, her extra £10,000 attracts a tax-free yield of 5%, as she saves on £500 interest that she would otherwise have paid.
Interest-only mortgages are not banned in the UK. However, expatriates should not hope too much as banks are getting more and more reluctant to lend on an interest-only basis. This is because of the "interest-only time bomb", which is worth more than £100bn and poses substantial risks to the UK financial system.
For an overview of the UK mortgage market, you can use a price comparison website like this one.
Gazumping may be a real concern for prospective property buyers in England. A buyer is "gazumped" when he made a purchase offer to the seller and the seller accepted that offer, but later on the seller accepted a higher offer from another prospective buyer. This is made possible by the fact that sale agreements are not legally binding before you "exchange contracts".
Typically, surveyor's fees, mortgage fees and legal fees have not been paid when an offer is accepted, but these formalities must be completed before contracts can be exchanged. On average, it takes three months to exchange contracts once parties have agreed on an offer.
Gazanging takes place when the seller pulls out of any deal, generally waiting for better market conditions. Gazundering involves a buyer forcing his seller to accept a lower price.
These phenomena are less common outside England, if not banned.
For an overview of the buying process in England, click here.
If you decide to let your property, you must be aware of the applicable landlord and tenant law. Don't forget that housing matters are "devolved". In this case, rules may vary whether you are in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland. For an overview of landlord and tenant responsibilities in England, click here.
Do not breach or frustrate the purpose of your mortgage contract. Typically, you should not let your property without letting your bank know if you are on a first-time buyer mortgage.
Net rental income is taxed at the standard personal income tax rates. See Investment for Expats in the UK If you take a lodger in your main home, rental income is exempt unless your household gets more than £4.250 in rent.
Property investment can also be made through common investment vehicles. This may help you secure a yield while not having to manage your property investments for yourself.
A REIT is a tax-exempt property investment vehicle, which is required to distribute at least 90% of its profits. Distributions are subject to a 20% withholding tax, and they are taxable as rental income in the hands of the investors.
The UK has a single-tier system with regard to property taxes. Only local council tax is payable by the occupier, although it must be paid by the owner when there is no other occupier.
The amount of tax is determined by the band of the property. Consequently, you might wish to check the applicable council tax band prior to purchasing UK property.
There is no land value tax in the UK, although there is continuing debate over the introduction of a "mansion tax" on certain multi-million pound properties. However, an Annual Tax on Enveloped Dwellings (ATED) has been introduced since 1 April 2013. ATED covers only:
The UK has substantially tightened the tax burden on property purchases over the recent years. This is especially true of residential property worth more than £2m.
Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) is payable on the transfer of UK property, and progressive rates apply. As a result, an SDLT liability of hundreds of thousands of pounds may arise on the transfer of multi-million pound property.
SDLT rates for residential property are as follows:
Purchase price/lease premium or transfer value (£)
Rate (%)
0 to 125,000
Above 125,000 to 250,000
Above 250,00 to 500,000
Above 500,000 to 1m
Above 1m to 2m
Over 2m
Over 2m if purchased by certain legal entities
Different rates apply to non-residential or mixed use property, and there are surcharges if you buy a leasehold with high rent.HMRC is committed to protecting the UK tax base. Consequently, HMRC employs significant resources to defeat offshore avoidance schemes that are primarily designed to artificially shift the UK tax base.

Review for Favicon Picker 2 by Mozart79
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Sure this add-on has it flows like when it's installed the favicon on tabs will disappear.
But out of all the add-ons I tried today this was the only one that was able too restore and update some of my bookmarks favicons in my huge collection. After I was finish fixing my favicons in my bookmarks and tab bar, I removed it. All your edits will remain even after it's been removed.
You install it do the edits and remove it again and all Firefox functions is back too normal again.
imo it's still a very usefull add-on and if the bugs gets fixed I'll gladly give it a 5.
To create your own collections, you must have a Mozilla Add-ons account.

Tasty Tales from the Italian Ham Highway: Udine
Udine is the hub and historical capital of the small Friuli Veneza Giulia province of the same name. With a sizeable university, it's a lively setting with an interesting mix of people and pretty decent nightlife. If you've been to your share of checklist-y must-see Italian destinations (such as … oh let's say … Florence) or you simply get a kick out off veering off the beaten path in an attempt to see what real life in a foreign country is like then Udine is a brilliant town to keep in mind.

Tasty Tales from the Italian Ham Highway: DOK Dall'ava Prosciuttificio in San Daniele di Friuli
Prosciutto made in San Daniele is protected by the EU as a PDO product. With the Alps to the north whipping the area with cold mountain winds and the Adriatic sending warm air up from the south, San Daniele has a distinctive microclimate which results in singularly sweet and savoury cured meats. Second only to Parma with respect to popularity and recognition (you decide for yourself which tastes better), San Daniele hams are pretty easy to come by in much of the world. One brand to look out for is DOK Dall'ava. Continue reading
