To create a new default emotional baseline.

• Enhancing ability to maintain composure during challenges• Improving family and social harmony• Reducing fatigue and exhaustion• Promoting the body's natural regenerative processes• Improving coordination and reaction times• Enhancing the ability to think clearly and find better solutions• Improving ability to learn and achieve higher test scores• Increasing access to intuitive intelligent, your gut feeling
Heartmath is used by professional athletes, first responders, Army and Navy, health care professionals and educators throughout North America. Results are measurable and consistent and the practices are designed to fit into our fast-paced North American lifestyles. Many individuals who do not have time to go to the gym or to meditate, can find time for Heartmath.

States use bonds as a way to raise money for infrastructure projects like schools, roads, housing, parks, levees and other public facilities. California bonds also finance research and development related to stem cell research. The investor agrees to lend California a certain amount of money in exchange for a predetermined interest rate. As municipal bonds (also called munis) are usually tax-free, the interest rate is lower than the rate found on comparable bonds issued by corporations.
Open a brokerage account at one of the participating brokerage houses listed on the most recent offering. This information is available on the state of California's website. You must have an account with one of these firms in order to purchase bonds.
Research the bonds or notes offered. Download the Preliminary Official Statement for the bonds to find out more information about the maturity dates and the types of projects they will be funding in order to make the most informed decision about which bond issue to invest in. Pay close attention to the bond rating. This will tell you how risky the bond issue is; that is, what is the likelihood of not being paid back by the state of California. Three different firms have rated current California bonds: Fitch: BBB Moody's: Baa1 Standard & Poor's: A-
Contact the broker and place your order. You can do this either online or over the phone. For instance, the current offering is managed by JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and Prager, Sealy & Co. You need to have an account at one of these institutions in order to purchase the issue.

Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard has congratulated his former midfield partner Xabi Alonso on an amazing career as he prepares to play his last ever game.
The Spanish maestro will take to the pitch for Bayern Munich against Freiburg at the Allianz Arena tomorrow.
But be warned - Gerrard's message will leave you feeling emotional.
The midfielder duo were instrumental over Rafael Benitez's reign at Anfield - winning the Champions League and FA Cup together.
They also came close to winning the Premier League title and were part of a Liverpool team that was once ranked the best in Europe.
Speaking on a video link to Alonso during a tribute to Alonso on Bayern Munich's club TV channel, Gerrard said: "Hope you're well mate. I just want to say huge congratulations on your retirement. What a special career, fantastic player.
"For me, probably the most enjoyable partner throughout my career as a midfielder, the best passer of a ball I have ever played with, and you deserve all the accolades you get mate.
"What a special career for club and country. I am very jealous of you having a World Cup winners medal, I am very jealous of you having league titles in Germany and Spain, but you deserve it mate.
"As I said, I couldn't ask for a better midfield partner and when you left it broke my heart.
"But you'll have a special place at this football club and you're always welcome to come and visit.
"Enjoy your night."
Once Alonso plays for the final time, only Milan Baros will be playing from the 2005 Champions League winning side.

Stitch Drilling
Stitch drilling is a method of diamond drilling which is popular for creating door, window and lift openings through concrete. This method involves drilling a series of overlapping holes to form an opening to any desired shape or size, removing the limitations of single hole core drilling.
Stitch drilling is often preferred when creating holes in which the depth and size exceeds the capabilities of conventional drills. The method produces low levels of vibration and does not affect structural integrity, thus it is effective for both heavy duty applications and for more delicate work.

Nomad Trust named as Market Rasen Racecourse charity of the year
Market Rasen Racecourse has chosen Lincoln-based Nomad Trust as its charity of the year.
The new partnership will begin on Ladies Day' at the racecourse on Friday, June 2, the same day X Factor runner-up Olly Murs will be performing.
General manager at the racecourse Nadia Powell said: "We are delighted to have formed this new partnership with The Nomad Trust at the racecourse for 2017-18.
"The charity has done hugely valuable work over the last 31 years providing a welfare service to adults who, for whatever reason, have become homeless."
The Nomad Trust was set up in 1986 and celebrated its 30th anniversary last year and the Christian-based charity operates in Lincoln providing help for those who are homeless.
Rachael Hewett, fundraising officer at the trust said: "Horse racing is Britain's second biggest spectator sport so, with Market Rasen Racecourse being such a popular destination in our home county of Lincolnshire, this new partnership will help boost our charity's profile.
"We are thrilled to become the venue's 2017-18 'charity of the year' and to be launching this partnership on Ladies' Day."
Tickets are still available to purchase for Ladies' Day tomorrow (June 2) and they are priced from £35.

Convert your work breakdown structure into an user story map
Convert your work breakdown structure into an user story map is the key to do good PMP and agile project management at the same time.
Firstly, there are three things to keep in mind:
- Yes, it is possible to convert a workbreakdown structure into an user story map
- It is an iterative process
- No, there is no need to convert your workbreakdown structure into an user story map as both can be used for communication purposes with different audiences
There is no unique way to do this transition, but this is how I do it:
1. Start by creating a product oriented work breakdown structure:
Regardless in which phase of the project we are, whether we joined the project at the beginnig or we take the project over from another project manager. We need a work breakdown structure. If there is no one, talk with the team and other stakeholders to create one as soon as possible.
How to create a product oriented work breakdown structure?
- Together with the business analyst (if any), I meet the key business stakeholders to understand what they want, except it there is a clear scope statement document
- The buiness analyst and I decompose the needs in potential sub products. The first version of your work breakdown structure is born
- We present the draft to SME's, architects and the team to finetune the workbreakdown. As it is an iterative process, it is OK if at the beginning we only have 2 levels of high level subproducts
- We use backlog refinement meeting to continue updating the work breakdown structure if needed
In the article "How to create a product oriented work breakdown structure" I share with you how I created a product oriented wbs for a recommendation system.
Don't worry about having the perfect work breakdown structure since the beginning. It is only when we are starting the last sprint that we have the impression that we have the final-final version of our work breakdown structure. However, changes that impact our product may occur, therefore our work breakdown structure will be also impacted.
Should I add delivery phases or project life cycle phases on my work breakdown structure?
Personally, I don't do that. There is nothing good or bad about adding phases on the work breakdown structure, but I prefere to communicate phases in my planning, not in my work breakdown structure.
However, I do include in my work breakdown structure the pieces of the product that will be added in each of the phases.
Which tool to use to create a work breakdown structure?
MS Project, Excel, Power Point, Enterprise Architect, Visio, doesn't matter, up to you. For the moment, for me is enough to use Power Point SmartArt for building the work breakdown structure chart. From experience, it is easy to use and change when I am working with different stakeholders.
However, I do not use Power Point for the work breakdown dictionary.
2. Creating an user story map from the work breakdown structure
Start this process bottom up.
I always keep this in mind:
- The goal of the user story map is help you to manage the project, no just a conceptual exercise
- Master the tool used by the company as much as you can (Jira, Target Process, etc)
- Don't replace nor transform the work breakdown structure by the user story map, but create the user story map starting from the work breakdown structure
The process I follow looks like this:
- I identify the "entity" in the tool that developers use to monitor their development tasks. From my experience, whether user stories or tasks inside the user stories
- I consider the workpackages of the work breakdown structure to be "features" and the level above to be "epics"
- With the team or some of them, iterate starting from the user stories or task until we are confortable with the grouping of them into features and epics
- Final check, compare the work breakdown structure with the final version of the user story map to be sure that you can make the link between workpackages, epics and features
Iterating to create the user story map is key
Some things can happen after this:
- A workpackage that was a feature at the begining becomes an epic
- A workpackage that was a feature at the begining becomes two or more features
- Rare, but might happen, a workpackage that was a feature becomes an user story
I try to avoid this error:
As the work breakdown structure and the user story map are communication tools with different levels of granularity for different audiences, the goal is not to replace one by the other.
After the iteration, I avoid as much as I can to impact the work breakdown structure by creating additional workpackage to match the number of epics and/or features.
As conclusion:
To use your work breakdown structure as starting point to create your user story map keep this in mind:
- A top down approach for the work breakdown structure
- A botton up for the user story map
- Iterate with the team until you all feel confortable
- Check and map
I hope this helps.
And you, how do you transform your work breakdown structure into a user story map?

In order to get additional storage, I ordered plastic trays from Grady-White. I cut them down 3/8" then 5200 them back together along with the under bracing. I put them under the lids that access the battery compartments on each side of the stern of my GW Explorer. It was a lot of effort but it will be worth it to give additional storage next to the fishing area where baits are readied.

The next time you get embarrassed about whipping out a coupon, remind yourself that even the world's richest people have frugal spending habits. IKEA's founder Ingvar Kamprad is worth $48.1B and still flies economy instead of first-class or private jet. He obviously can afford to splurge but knows better than to spend his money carelessly. With that being said, here are seven things that aren't worth paying full price for.
New cars
If you're paying sticker price for a car, you're paying too much. Always do your research before heading to the dealership. Collect quotes from sites like Kelley Blue Book, NADAguides and Edmunds to get a good idea of what everyone else is paying for your desired vehicle. With your quotes in hand, you'll be able to negotiate a good deal. Visiting the dealership at the right time can also save you money. Buying at the end of the model year (late summer or early fall) can save thousands of dollars. That's because dealers need to get rid of older models to make room for newer ones. If you can't wait that long, try shopping at the end of the month instead. Most dealers have monthly goals they need to hit so they may be more willing to work with you.
Real estate
House hunters can easily save money by negotiating with the seller. During a buyer's market, you have more power so don't be scared to speak up. Whether you want the seller to pay the closing costs or leave their appliances behind, the odds are in your favor. Zillow recommends making an initial offer that's at least 10 percent lower than the price you're willing to pay. But don't go too low, you don't want to insult them.
When it comes to getting the best travel deals, timing is everything. Experts recommend booking domestic flights 1-2 months in advance and international flights 4-6 months advance to secure the best price. Choosing to fly during off-peak times like early morning or late night can also lead to big savings. If you have a flexible schedule, try booking your trip on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Saturday. Another smart way to save is to sign up for airline and hotel rewards programs. You'll be the first to know about sales plus, you'll earn points for booking with them which can be redeemed for free tickets or hotel stays.
Gym memberships
Want to save money on getting fit? Look no further than your health insurance provider. Some insurers like Aetna have fitness reimbursement programs which offer cash back for eligible services. This includes gym memberships, group exercise classes, weight management programs, personal training, etc. We recommend calling the number on the back of your insurance card to see if they offer a similar program and what it takes to qualify. Another way to get in shape without busting your budget is to look on Groupon and Living Social for deals. You can usually find CrossFit, Zumba and a variety of other classes at deep discounts.
When it comes to adding a new pet to your family, choosing to adopt will save you the most money. Buying a dog from a pet store can easily cost between $300-$5,000 depending on the breed, sex or quality. Whereas adopting your four-legged friend will only cost between $70-$300.
Unless you're buying the book as a gift for someone else, always buy used. Previously owned books can easily be purchased online at a fraction of the cover price. The drawbacks are it might be an older edition, slightly damaged or missing access keys for online materials. However, many sites clearly list the books condition so you can avoid any headaches. If all else fails, you can always borrow the book from your local library for free.

I've been running a lot of networking workshops and facilitating interactive networking events this year. I love the opportunity to help people reduce the 'awkwardness' of networking and really find value in connecting with new people.
I really think networking has a bad stigma. Genuinely because people have made the process too 'sales based' and really forgotten the real purpose – to form connections with new people.
Through the workshops and activities I've been running this year I've found some key points for people to take with them to help make the most of networking opportunities. I hope these are valuable to you.
- Reframe networking. Personally I don't believe in small talk. I think the way we approach networking needs to be less about 'filling time' or 'a boring activity' and more about how we can build relationships and meet new people. I work to genuinely enjoy the conversations I have when networking so I can leave the best impression on my new connections and feel positive about the experience.
- Provide value for free. Word of mouth is such a valuable asset for developing connection and communities and I find that conversations where you g out of your way to help others or connect them with your networks are the most valuable. Provide information, insights and contacts and be remembered for being a helpful, connected human.
- Be memorable. What's the saying: 'people may forget what you said but they'll remember how you made them feel.' This one is essential for networking. It's not about saying everything in that moment it's about being remembered so when you follow up there's something to break the ice and connect with. Focus on being present and sharing relatable stories and asking valuable questions. They're excellent ways to make sure the person you're speaking too feels valued and remembers you as an enjoyable person to communicate with.
Inevitably the key to being a good networker is to be a good communication and that really requires you to be in the moment. You need to listen and engage with enthusiasm and be open and generous with your stories and information.
The number one piece of advice though is to HAVE FUN! If you're having fun in a conversation other people will as well. And that's the sort of impression you want to leave with people.

Background: Sex hormones organize brain structure and function, particularly early in life. Endocrine neuroimaging offers the opportunity to assess the impact of sex hormones but also genetic contributions on structural neuroanatomy and neurocognitive-affective function in disorders of sexual development (DSD). This may be particularly relevant from a psychopathological perspective of how such neural changes contribute to mood and anxiety disorders frequently observed in DSD.
Objective and hypotheses: To review recent developments in pediatric endocrine neuroimaging, particularly DSD.
Method: Drawing from examples of different neuroimaging approaches such as structural and functional MRI and DTI in DSD, this talk will aim to provide a brief overview of the emerging field of pediatric endocrine neuroimaging. Moreover, findings from a recent treatment study on baseline neural synchrony (resting-state MRI) will be presented.
Results: The reviewed studies indicate functional and structural changes in medial temporal lobe and prefrontal cortex in DSD that can be linked to altered cognitive-affective processing. The resting-state study indicates some plasticity and sensitivity to sex steroids, even in adulthood, and a potential intermediate step between brain structural and functional changes with sex steroid exposure.
Conclusion: Pediatric endocrine imaging offers exciting new avenues to understanding the neurobiological mechanisms underlying DSD but more collaborative efforts with increased samples and replications are needed.

Currently there is no contrast in colour between the kerb and the edge of the road, the blister studs at crossings are barely detectable, and the correct use of tactile paving at crossings has not been used, (red paving should be used at controlled crossings to allow people to differentiate). The disabled and loading bays are also on the pavement area which is confusing for most people, let alone the visually impaired. The actual raised crossings are also the same colour as the pavement which is confusing.
From the perspective of someone who is partially sighted, there is no obvious visual indication of the limits of the footway at both crossings and at the kerb sides. Partially sighted people are assisted by strong colour contrasts which the marketplace currently does not have.
We propose that the edge of the pavements be painted in a contrasting colour to indicate where the edge is, the disabled and loading bays are lowered to the level of the road with a strong, detectable kerb edge and clear signage is used, red tactile paving is installed at controlled crossings, the blister studs at the uncontrolled crossings are replaced with some that stand out more (particularly visually), and the raised crossing areas themselves are resurfaced to match the colour of the black road.

For The Birmingham Times
The tennis tournament was already under way when TNT Elite arrived at Auburn University's Yarbrough Tennis Center. The squad wanted to warm up but all the courts were in use.
"We got there and they had already started playing," recalled Susanna Wiggins, of Gardendale. "They wanted to get in the matches before the rain started."
But the lack of a tennis court didn't stop the team that trains at the Jefferson State Community College campus in northern Jefferson County.
"We walked on over to some basketball courts next door and started hitting back and forth in the parking lot," Wiggins said.
The impromptu training site proved to be a launching pad for the team, which went on to finish second in the 18-younger intermediate division of the Alabama Junior Team Tennis Tournament. The runner-up showing qualified TNT Elite to play in the Southern Section JTT event this weekend in Rome, Ga.
TNT Elite is a diverse squad of boys and girls who live in Gardendale, Fultondale, Bessemer, Roebuck, West End and Tuscaloosa.
The parking lot practice court had to seem like old times for TNT, which stands for Top Notch Tennis. The courts at Jeff State are in need of resurfacing. The courts have been in such bad shape that players have hit balls on the nearby parking lot instead. A team member used a weed-eater to cut away grass that grew through cracks in the courts.
"It didn't feel any different," Gardendale's Adam McGuire said. "All that mattered is we hit before we played the game."
Coach Gerald Henderson said the success of his 10-member squad is a result of dedication. "They don't complain about the courts or anything like that," he said. "The kids give everything they've got."
A grant from the United States Tennis Association helped Henderson get equipment for the team's training and equipment.
Fifteen-year-old Lauren Bridges travels from Tuscaloosa.
"I just really love this team, and I just really love playing the game," she said. "All these people love it just as much as I do . . . It's like family."
Jamiya Ivory, 12, is the team's youngest member but said she's not intimidated.
"I'm just trying to get better," the West End resident said, adding that her baseline groundstrokes are her strength.
At the state tourney, TNT Elite faced "country club-type" opponents but was undeterred. "What really matters is our participation and cooperation as a team," Wiggins said. "As long as we work together and act like a family, it doesn't really matter."
Added Henderson: "I just tell them the same thing. If they work hard, it'll pay off. They're just as good as anybody else and can beat anybody on any day."

While the sporting press work themselves into a frenzy about England manager Fabio Capello's relaxed attitude to the utter uselessness of his team, they're forgetting one thing – Capello is earning over £100,000 a week and is the highest-paid national team manager in the world. He can't do his job, but it would be too expensive to get rid of him because the buffoons at the FA are stupid, self-serving and incompetent.
Fabio's snout is well and truly in the trough of our money and there's nothing we can do about it. Well done Fabio.

If your spirit animal happens to be a wolf, then you're in luck. Because these last few weeks I've been scouring the web for the best examples of wolf tattoos and I have to say, you're going to be impressed. I'm always astonished by the lack of quality tattoo designs floating around out there. I mean, it's a permanent piece of art that will be with you for the rest of your life, the least you can do is take some time to vet your artist and make sure you're getting a quality design. This frustration is the main reason I started this site. Anyways, if a wolf tattoo is something you're seriously considering, then this list is right where you need to be. Behold, high quality wolf tattoos that inspire.
A white wolf tattoo
This masterpiece by Victoria Do is one of those designs that leaves a lasting impression on anyone who sees it. It inspires awe. It evokes strong emotions of affection and appreciation. It's oh-so-awesome.
Through panes
Not only is this wolf one of the most stunning examples of realism on the list, its creative extras go far and beyond the typical decorative additions we see on similar designs. Zlata is one of the most talented purveyors of photorealism work in the industry.
A floral design
If you're looking for something with a feminine vibe, then adding a few strategically placed flowers to a design usually gets the job done. The way the artist chose to incorporate a single hue of pink to the mix adds to its feminine appeal without being too colorful.
A sketched wolf tattoo
Forewarning: There's a great deal of sketch style designs on this list. As you can see, sketchy lines and wolf tattoos simply go hand in hand. This piece has a ton of style and a strong abstract nature that's just reigned in enough to make it distinguishable.
A complex arrangement
If I had to get a wolf tattoo tomorrow and could choose from any of the designs on this list, this would be it without a doubt. Balazs Bercsenyi is one of those artists that everyone wants to work with. I don't exactly know what's going on with this piece but it's simply divine.
A rib cage design
I've always been at a loss for words when trying to describe Doctor Woo's wonderful creations. I'm referring in particular to the circular details seen in the hindquarters of this wolf, which are a common site in Woo's designs. Many artists try to replicate Brian's work, but there can only be one Doctor Woo.
A winter wolf
When we think of wolves in the wild, we always tend to picture them in some sort of snowy landscape. And that's probably because those snow covered mountains and trees really accentuate the white portion of fur which most wolves possess. The wolf is the obvious focal point of this piece but how about that little cabin?
A spirit wolf
Wolves and dreamcatchers go together like Frida Kahlo's eyebrows. The wolf is one of the most popular and powerful spirit animals and they are commonly paired together in a variety of different mediums. This design has a tranquil vibe to it that Woo's lightly-drawn style permits.
A pair of eyes
This is one of those designs that you may have seen before as it's been floating around for quite some time now. I don't usually like to repost designs but what collection of wolf tattoos wouldn't be complete without this creative example.
A geometric design
As you'll notice, many of the pieces on this list are similar in design and style. This is mainly due to the fact that the artists who are the most skilled in creating these particular types of designs simply love to do them. Again, I like to keep lists as diverse as possible but due to the quality of these designs, I don't think you'll mind.

A pair
Wolves are pack animals by nature, so it's only fitting that many people decided to get more than one wolf in their design. These two simple, yet highly detailed wolves are beautiful examples of a no frills approach to design. A close inspection reveals a delightful texture.
Two clashing styles
This design concept is a popular one that's been applied to almost every animal design imaginable. Aside from being a little easier to ink, than, say, an entire work of realism, the blending of the two different styles gives the viewer more to take in which makes things more interesting.
A blue-eyed wolf
Here we have a beautiful portrait of a wolf in its natural habitat. A winding road, snow-covered trees, and a full moon are all details that can be found in this design. The methodic pulse of grey and black ink give this piece a sense of harmony and flow.
A multi-pose design
Not quite sure which pose your wolf should occupy? Good news, you don't have to settle for just one—as Korean tattooist BK has illustrated above. BK is one of my favorite artists when it comes to sketch style designs. He's one of the few artists that work exclusively in the style.
A starry wolf
Done in a fantastic and highly stylized watercolor fashion, this wolf tattoo has a majestic and cosmic feel to it. It takes a creative mind to think up something like this, which is true with almost every watercolor design. Davide Famiglietti, you sir have talent.
A subtle watercolor design
Watercolor tattoos are everywhere these days. But the artist who created this masterpiece is in a class all by himself. He goes by the moniker Doy, and he's one of those must-follow tattoo artists on Instagram that I stalk with no remorse.
An amazing forearm piece
I like to think there's a special place in heaven reserved for those who create tattoo designs as beautiful as this. And whether or not you're looking for a wolf tattoo of your own, you can't help but appreciate a design of this caliber. As you can see here, wolves have a tendency to inspire the best out of artists who attempt them.
A galaxy wolf
If you're familiar with Resul's work, then you must have instantly recognized his style the second you laid eyes upon this piece. Resul loves to sample sections of his designs in a cosmic or galaxy themed style. What I love about his sections of space is the realistic vision he creates which perfectly captures the grandeur and mystery of the cosmos.
A beautiful back piece
This design is another one that's been floating around the web for a while. But just because it isn't brand spanking new doesn't make it any less of a pleasure to view. It's one of those designs that you never get sick of. An instant classic if you will. And its top lighted nature adds a dramatic effect to the mix.
Appearing patterns
The thigh is a great place to get a tattoo. And this design is so well suited for this location that I wouldn't be surprised if you told me she was born with it. The wolf itself is of course done to perfection but what really stands out are the almost paisley-like patterns around the perimeter of the design that fade into the background.
A masterful blend
Shading and blending is something we usually take for granted when it comes to tattoos. But what most people don't know is that these two seemingly mundane skills are anything but easy. It takes a lot of practice and determination before you're able to create designs like the one above.
A back mural
Wolf tattoos come in all different shapes and sizes. But much to my surprise, while gathering material for this list I noticed that there wasn't very many tiny wolf tattoos to be found, which is definitely not the norm. Instead, medium to large size designs were the most common.
A delicate forearm design
This lightly-drawn wolf tattoo will get you get nods of appreciation wherever you go. Oozing sophistication and elegance, the decision to take a more subtle design approach paid off big time in this case.
A half sleeve
Sleeves of this nature were a surprisingly common sight during my quest to find the 60 best wolf tattoos in existence. Majestic river valleys, snow-covered mountain tops, and just about every other type of natural landscape you can imagine were common backdrops for wolves occupying various noble poses.
A fearsome wolf
Fredao Oliveira's style is wildly popular among men. Now I'm not saying that women don't enjoy his work, they do, but the majority of the likes and comments his work receives are from men. I know, what an odd thing to observe but I just happened to stumble upon it and I thought it was interesting. I've actually found that men tend to appreciate the sketched style of design more than women in general.
An orangish red overlay
Arguably more owl than wolf, this design still represents an undeniably cool concept that I felt was too fascinating not to include. However, I can't help to think how cool the wolf would be all by itself, or perhaps set over a different wolf design instead of an owl.
A beautiful black and grey ink design
Trudy's wolves are some of my favorites on the list. And as you can gather from the number of her designs on the list (there were many more I didn't include), she clearly enjoys drawing wolves as well. The contrast she's able to achieve while still showcasing the soft nature of the wolf's fur is wonderful.
A cosmic watercolor design
No list of animal tattoos would be complete without at least a few of Adrian's cosmic watercolor designs. If bright and beautiful is your thing, then I recommend checking out Adrian's other work as each and every one of his designs is full of vibrant color and fantastic style.
A planetary design
The whole spiritual/cosmos vibe thing is strongly represented in world's collective body of wolf tattoo designs. The fact that the wolf is wildly considered to be one of the most spiritual animals obviously has something to do with this trend.
A sketchy wolf
I know, this design is eerily similar to the one by Inez Janiak that was featured earlier on the list, but I couldn't resist the urge to include it as well. The sketch style of design is well-suited for wolf tattoos which I think is proven by the design above.
A forearm piece
From the mountain peaks to the tree line to the wolf itself, this piece was carefully staged in a way that you wouldn't think would work, yet it does and on so many different levels. Again, this is one of my favorite designs on the list. How many times have I said this now?
A split design
Eva Krbdk is known for her famous circular landscape designs, but her creativity when it comes to designing non-landscape designs is something that should be applauded as well. In my opinion, this design has the perfect amount of decorative extras without making the design feel too cluttered.
A sketchy watercolor wolf
When it comes to modern tattoo treads, there are four main movements that have really shaped the landscape over the past few decades. These include the watercolor, micro (slim needle), sketch, and realism styles of design. The slim needle movement coincides with works of realism and sketch style designs are often filled using the watercolor technique. This design is a beautiful example of the latter..
A double exposure design
What really stands out about this design is the transition between the wolf and the landscape portion of the design. It's so…clean. Mark Ostein is another artist I only had the pleasure of recently discovering but I have a feeling he will quickly become one of my go-to artists.
A sketched mashup
I love this design. But I can't help but imagine how cool of a sleeve this particular mashup style would make. Sketch style sleeves are something of a rarity, come to think of it, I don't think I've ever even seen one and I look at tattoo designs for hours everyday.
A lot of texture
When it comes to texture, this design definitely isn't lacking. The heavy blackwork on the shoulder allows for bold black lines to define the wolf while still keeping a somewhat soft and texturized feeling intact.
A segmented design
This design is split into four similar sections which feature abstract elements as well as other subtly hidden designs. Mountains and trees can be made out if you let the creative side of your brain take over. Behold, a beautiful abstract design with enough detail to captivate even the most anxious of viewers.
A triangular design
This is a creative work of abstract art that just happens to feature a wolf. Geometric in nature, circles, triangles, and a four-sided polygon are in stark contrast with the realistic wolf that occupies the main triangle.
A chest piece
If you're getting tired of all the sketch style designs then too bad. Just kidding, but this is one of the last designs on the list and and believe me when I said you're getting off easy as there was about a million sketch style wolf tattoos that I thought were good enough to make this list.
A blue watercolor wolf
As popular as sketched designs are on men, watercolor designs are on women. So it only makes sense that if you're considering getting a wolf tattoo and are of the female gender that you give a beautiful watercolor design like this some serious thought.
A black and grey geometric design
If you're starting to notice a trend then let me assure you that you are not alone. It appears that wolves all by themselves aren't quite interesting enough in the minds of most tattooists to work as stand alone designs. Geometric shapes and all sorts of decorative extras are an overwhelmingly common sight.
A tricep tat
Thanks to their domesticated descendants, many of our minds have been conditioned to look upon wolves with familiarity and comfort due to the roles domesticated dogs play in our daily lives. This is of course why I see my dog in almost every wolf tattoo I view.
A watercolor wolf head
Here we have another one of Doy's wonderful works of watercolor brilliance. Some designs attempt to mimic water, Doy's designs are water. Many of the watercolor techniques I see make it a point to include the visual characteristics of water such as their individual droplets. Doy's technique mimics that of real watercolor paintings which do not contain actual drops of water.
Small decorative accents
This design features your ever-present background elements but in a way that doesn't distract from the focal point of the design. I have to admit, as annoying as all the background noise can initially appear, most designs are better for it.
A timeless wolf tattoo
As you can see, the wolf in this design is more of a footnote than a focal point. However, the sheer awesomeness of this design (especially the wolf) was too much for me to ignore. I mean seriously, how stunning and clear is that wolf?
Another segmented design
I'm always impressed when I see large thigh pieces. In my opinion, the thigh is one of the most beautiful places a woman can get a tattoo and the sheer amount of space that it provides allows for some pretty incredible design opportunities.
Cool coins
Coins, mail order commemorative husky plates, whatever these are they do a great job of inspiring creativity as you look to create a unique design of your own. How are these matching designs not cooler than any of the other traditional type designs on the list?
A hand design
It's not every person that has a design like this in them. As in, in takes a certain kind of individual to even entertain the idea of getting a large wolf tattoo on the top of their hand. But surprisingly enough, there are countless examples of top-of-the-hand wolf tattoos out there just like this.
A set of colored eyes
The concept of creating a wolf tattoo in black and grey ink with the only color being in the eyes is a relatively common one. But just because it's common doesn't mean that this particular type of design is anything but spectacular. Upon closer inspection, this may just be a husky. Oops.
A sketched forearm piece
Here we have another combination of both the sketch and the watercolor styles of design. The small infusion of brown ink throughout the design matches the eye color and creates a wonderful harmonious effect.
A colorful watercolor work
For any woman looking for a fun and feminine design, a colorful watercolor creation like the one above would definitely get the job done. The white wolf set amongst the vibrant watercolor hues offers up a beautiful contrast while providing a smooth and polished look.
A brilliant chest piece
When it comes to sheer size, it doesn't get much larger than this white-eyed wolf. Frank Carrilho is an uber talented tattooist who was born in Brazil but works out of Portugal when he's not travel working. His sketchy black and grey ink designs often feature large animals such as this wolf with a serpent's tongue.
This is what happens when you can't settle on a particular style of design. I'm kidding of course but this is a great example of how a single design done in two different styles can actually be more beautiful than one done with a single comprehensive theme.
Sketched brushed strokes
I often come across designs of an animal with another type of animal skull below them. I'm not sure what the significance of these types of designs are—if any—but they do seem to be popular. And don't worry, this is the last sketch style design on the list.
A black backdrop
Fun fact: The earliest known drawings of wolves were found in southern Europe and are a whopping 20,000 years old. In addition to that wonderful fact, there are more wolf tattoos in existence than real wolves living freely in the wild today. Okay, so I made that last little part up but after spending a significant portion of my life looking at wolf tattoos I certainly wouldn't doubt it.
A night wolf
There's nothing more beautiful and perhaps more terrifying than the howl of a wolf at night. The silhouette of a wolf howling against a full moon is one of those images that's been burned into our brains since childhood. Oh a wolf, why isn't it howling and where's the full moon?
A wolf and compass
This design was a late substitution for a duplicate design I had mistakenly included on the list. I often swap in better designs when I find them before a list is complete. There's nothing I hate more than stumbling upon an amazing design right after I finish an article.
A sleeve
If you're here then there's no doubt you have at least a small obsession with wolves. And by the looks of this design, I'm sure that if you asked this individual what her favorite animal was it wouldn't be a porcupine.
A morphing thigh piece
To anyone who claims that tattoos are not art (there are some people), I would politely tell them to take a look at this design. If they still didn't get it, I would politely tell them to go do something unmentionable with themselves. John Monteiro is a recent discovery of mine and I can't even explain how good his work is.
A bicep piece
Here's a gorgeous design from John Monteiro that's actually one of the less detail-packed designs in his portfolio. This is another one of those designs that features a wolf in a less-than-central role yet still still qualifies as a wolf tattoo in my eyes.

Crowd Deposit Plan
Save together and earn more
An easy way to earn more interest on surplus funds1
Whether as a Franchisee, member, or association, businesses want to earn as much as possible with their surplus funds. But individually their balances may not be large enough to earn a higher interest rate. The Crowd Deposit Plan can help.
Here's how it works:
Individual account balances are combined within a single Crowd Deposit Plan.
The interest rate is based on this combined balance2
Because the collective balance is bigger, everyone can earn a higher interest rate on their individual balances.
Ideal for companies with separate business entities.†
Compare the difference the Crowd Deposit Plan can make3
All accounts participating in the Crowd Deposit Plan will use the same interest rate based on the interest rate tier of the aggregate balance.
Better rates are just the beginning
Interest rates and tiers are customized to suit your company.4
Account holders can withdraw funds at any time.
Accounts remain individually owned by the account holder.
Individual account statements are sent directly to the account holders.
There's no maintenance or transaction fees.5
It's available for Canadian or U.S. funds.

How much deposit should be paid at the time of signing? If you buying in inner Melbourne you are likely to be required to pay 10% deposit at the time of making the offer. If you are buying in a regional or outer Melbourne suburb you may only have to pay a small amount such as $1,000 at the time of signing and the rest upon your finance approval.
Will your offer be accepted if it has special conditions such as a finance clause and building inspection? Possibly not if you are buying in some locations or if there are many interested parties, but very possibly so in other situations.
Even after the contract has been entered into the process of conveyancing varies enormously. Will the keys be handed over at settlement or is the purchaser required to collect them from the real estate agency?
Will the settlement be conducted electronically or will it be at a central settlement location in the Melbourne CBD or at a lawyer's office in a regional country town?
This is where choosing a conveyancer becomes critical. We offer the breadth of knowledge of the whole state and all the complexities and quirks of different geographic locations. We really are different from our competitors.

Depressed animals does CBD oil work?
Also animals can suffer of depression; cats with destructive behaviour, dogs with anxiety attacks, bunnies with a nervous breakdown.
Depressive states in animals were analysed by the Department of Veterinary Sciences of the University of Milan and published in the newspaper La Stampa.
90% of the analysed patients are dogs with behavioural disorders, cause of a rupture with the family. Discomfort leading to the abandonment of the animal or euthanasia.
Behavioural disorders in dogs manifest itself almost always with forms of aggression towards individuals.
According to researchers these are aggressions generated by forms of fear and anxiety and therefore the myth should be dispelled according to which the dog owner would not be able to impose him/herself.
When one adopts a dog from a kennel, which has experienced a situation of abandonment, it can happen that when you leave it home alone, it could be overtaken by the anxiety to be left alone and hence destroy whatever it can find.
The most common behavioural disorder
There are dogs frightened by their similars, because they were adopted too early, which means separated prematurely from its own mother and brothers and sisters.
They haven't had the possibility to interact with other dogs, which makes them aggressive during each and every attempt of other animals to play.
This kind of disorder isn't immediately captured by the owner, who interprets some behaviours of the animal as a taunt, up to the moment that the manifestations of discomfort become evident, like when a cat pees outside the litter tray.
Therapies with psychiatric drugs
20/30% of the examined cases are cured with psychiatric drugs; when the situation becomes unsustainable many people turn to a specialist.
Patients from ambulatory clinics aren't only dogs, but there are, for example, also parrots inflicting themselves injuries by plucking out their pens, or hyper-aggressive, biting ferrets.
Also horses live phases of anguish, a typical gesture with which they show their own malaise is placing their teeth on the fence and swallow air.
CBD for the treatment of animals
In these cases could the use of Cannabidiol be helpful? We asked Elena Battaglia, veterinary doctor, we've already interviewed on our Blog pages.
"CBD works very well in cases of Anxiety and Stress – Doctor Battaglia confirms – it helps the animal to relax and therefore Cannabidiol shows to be very useful".
A recent study conducted by the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association in fact demonstrates how 61.8% to 95% of pet owners reported benefits for the health of their animals after CBD treatments, in case of pain, problems of the nervous system, inflammations, anxiety, vomit, problems of the digestive system, tumours, convulsions, skin problems and phobias, like for example those related to fireworks.
Where can you buy CBD for domestic animals?
On the market it is possible to find many products dedicated to our four-legged friends, Enecta created a specific product "CBD Oil for Pets" 10 ml of product with 500 mg of CBD; what does it contain? Olive oil, omega 3s and tocopherols.
Why did we choose Olive Oil?
We decided for olive oil instead of hemp seed oil to make the consumption more palatable and natural also for animals.
Omega 3s are added subsequently, including a preparation of plant origin, specifically made for animals.
Why the addition of Omega 3?
Omega 3, besides the benefits on the cardiovascular system, are recommended by veterinarians for the benefits they bring at the level of skin and fur.
The first signs of possible health problems in fact are manifested through a bad state of the fur, rendering the animal sensible to itching, allergies, infections and irritations.
What is the purpose of the endocannabinoid system?
The endocannabinoid system is involved in the control of appetite as well as in many other physiological functions correlated with stress response and the maintenance of homeostasis.
The endocannabinoid system is involved in the modulation of the immune, anti-inflammatory, endocrine responses and exerts an anti-proliferative action as well.
Endocannabinoids have neuro-protectant properties, are able to regulate motor activities and memory; they sensibly influence the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, monitoring heart rate, reducing arterial pressure and favouring bronchial dilatation.
The organism is equipped with a true endocannabinoid system, which synthesizes these compounds.
Contrary to traditional hormones and neurotransmitters, stored in secretory vesicles up to the time of release, endocannabinoids are synthesized and released on the spot and degraded immediately after their action.
The endocannabinoid system acts upon request, exerting its actions only when and where necessary.

What might MTC delegates best know Apex for?
While Apex has a variety of self-serve automation solutions for the transportation industry, it began with the industrial vending of consumables, PPE and other mission-critical supplies before moving into the automation of mobile device management and inventory replenishment.
How do Apex products and services benefit transport operators?
Regardless of the application, the common thread is how Apex self-serve automation replaces inefficient, manual processes. And in doing so, it helps to reduce operational costs and increase employee productivity.
Each of Apex's devices is powered by the Trajectory CloudTM technology platform and records who took what, when and how many in real-time, eliminating inventory latency. The Trajectory Cloud provides visibility into usage patterns and automatically notifies managers if equipment isn't returned.
What will Apex be exhibiting at the Microlise Transport Conference?
At MTC Microlise will be demonstrating its Axcess 6100 Locker. This smart locker offers in-compartment charging and is ideal for managing mobile assets like hand-held scanners, radios, tools and other instruments.
One take a way message about Apex?
Apex self-serve, automated lockers turn the issue of mobile device management into an opportunity — increasing employee productivity and decreasing scanner and equipment repair and replacement costs by 40%.
