Background Feminine Websites
Choosing a Theme for your site is a lot like falling in love — and it is one of the most significant choices a new blogger can make! Your theme is basically your audience's window in your site's soul. Now that I have been blogging for almost six months and have had enough time to test drive my website's theme, I wanted to share an honest review of my Restored 316 Designs motif and tell you why R316 topics are the BEST female WordPress themes for bloggers. Feminine Websites
click here to get started now with Restored 316!
Restored 316 Designs is a Business that creates stunning Themes for the female entrepreneur. Their feminine designs are the go-to motif for several successful bloggers and online business owners.
I found Out through Abby Lawson, who runs the successful site Just a Girl and Her Blog, whose blogging manual I spoke at length about here.
I said that Choosing a theme is like falling in love, which is completely true!
There Are a lot of variables that influence falling in love: beauty, desirability, similarity, need fulfillment…like the ability to lay down a hardwood flooring, perhaps?
A woman can Dream, can not she?
(Let us just Say I didn't marry my husband due to his handiness round the home. .)p–>
Anyway, my point is when people come to your site, you need them to fall A little bit in love with you.
If they do, There's a good likelihood that they will return again.
Then again.
And hopefully Repeatedly, till you're such good friends that you share inside jokes together in the remark section. (I want US to be friends like that.)
Studies reveal You merely have 7 minutes to make a first impression…and don't you want a reader's first impression of you to be BRILLIANT? (FYI, if it's not you risk them clicking away and rebounding , never to return!)
So how can you Catch their attention with your blog theme? Actually, it's really easy!
You want a theme that's:
· Attractive
· Clean
· Simple to Use
· Responsive (for cellular especially)
Of course, You can't just think ONLY on your readers!
You also to Consider yourself.
If You're Trying to turn your blog into a fulltime organization, you need a motif that supports you, something which is simple to install, and that you can customize to your specific needs.
You will find Free WordPress themes and premium WordPress themes. While you are able to discover beautiful free themes, they might not be mobile responsive and may not be updated as often as needed to keep a stunning and functional website from the ever-changing online area. A premium motif normally provides you with updates and client support. Customer support is critical because if something isn't working correctly or you have some questions regarding your subject you'll want to have an answer. Having a free theme, you may not even know who made it, let alone have a way to contact them.
Important note: you need the Genesis Framework in order to use a R316 motif. The R316 themes are built upon the Genesis Framework, like a home is built upon a foundation. The Genesis theme is that the"parent" theme along with the R316 theme is the"kid" theme. If you feel confused by this advice, you may want to look into a blogging guide for Building a Framework before you get started…that source is the reason I managed to start making money off my blog, immediately!
Think of Restored 316 motifs as the decor in your home. Restored 316 makes your house beautiful with its layout and colors. Feminine Websites
click here to get started today with Restored 316!
The Genesis Framework is the foundation of your site. While you won't find the functionality of this Genesis Framework in front end of the site it gets the back end much easier to work with. The Genesis Framework is what makes your website easy to personalize and cellular responsive. A lot of bloggers are determined by the Genesis Framework as the building blocks of the site since it is SEO friendly and easy to use.
Tons of enormous bloggers utilize Restored 316 Designs topics.
I reached out Into Lauren Gaige, whoever owns R316 and asked her which of her subjects are the most popular (it's not Beautiful Pro, boohoo.)
Their most Well-known themes, in order, are:
2. Refined
3. Anchored
4. Market
5. Darling & Sprinkle Pro (tie)
They Offer a quiz for those who aren't sure what subject would be perfect for you!
This is their New number three motif that is quickly rising to the peak of the ranks, Anchored.
*Note: when I had ONE complaint about my Beautiful Pro theme, it would be that it doesn't have a tacky announcement bar using a button link at the top. I NOW understand that these types of bars with buttons instantly convert more email subscriptions. (FYI, do not get hung up on the pub a lot of…there are plugins that can do so, or you might also have one custom .)
Should you choose a Glance around my blog, you will discover that everything is quite harmonious.
In the Social networking buttons at the top, right down to the color of my links, what's constant.
Here are some of the words which my readers have used to explain what They like about my blog:
· Intelligent
· sterile
· Gorgeous
· Rich
· Easy to use
· Organized
Which is Literally everything that I wished to exude when I was brainstorming for my blog!
That means That your blog will look fantastic no matter who's viewing it on what device.
It doesn't Matter if it's Joe Schmoe riding the train while reading on his iPhone or even Grandma Lois peering at it on her desktop computer, surrounded by cats.
Your theme Will match itself to every screen automatically, be it desktop computer, tabletcomputer, or mobile.
I had a woman Complaining to me on Facebook the other day that she spent three hours on her website — only to realize that she'd bought a non-mobile responsive motif and had to start over from scratch!
Don't be that girl. Feminine Websites
RESTORED 316 THEMES ARE Simple to NAVIGATE
No matter What page you land on, it's easy to navigate to my own site or anywhere else on my website. My subject has menus, secondary menus, a class index, a topical search indicator, and monthly archives!
All Restored 316 topics also arrive with a search box which enables readers to run a search on your blog using keywords. That comes in handy if someone remembers they saw something in your site, but are having a difficult time locating it.
For example, Let's say they recalled reading my post on hitting 140,000 pageviews in my eighth month blogging, but have not seen in ages and forgot to save it.
A quick Search for"140,000″ or"eighth" is going to turn up that post!
Easy peasy Lemon squeezey.
Here is what The simple version of my site theme originally looked like. As you can see in the picture above, my blog has the exact same layout — I just changed things up a little! (Update: I changed my subject; again below!)
I made my Emblem myself in PicMonkey and customized the colors to my new (cherry, mint, green, red, and yellow).
(My motif, Beautiful Guru, is actually one of their LEAST favorite topics, Believe it or not (more on this in a moment ).
But if You're a blogger with a lot of markets, like moi, I find that Beautiful Pro works really nicely, since you can readily fit 5-6 classes on the home page.
Like other Restored 316 themes, it includes choices like:
· Customizable Colour
· Auto Setup of all necessary plugins
· Custom Groups
· WooCommerce Ready
· Above Header Ad Space

Instructions And support are just one of the main reasons I chose to use Restored 316 for the WordPress theme. I am not really that technologically educated particularly in regards to coding. I knew I needed a company that offered superior customer support.
Each motif Includes a set of files that will allow you to set up your theme out of the box. If you'd like your site to appear like the demo there are instructions for this.
But if You ought to produce personalized changes to the site website oftored 316 step by step instructions make that easy too.

Talking about finances is an important part of going into any marriage, but it takes on an even more important role when you are getting remarried. You may have more assets and may have children, remarriage has a lot more complex issues than a first marriage and there is more financial risk than first marriages between younger couples without these assets.
(1) Different Financial and Life Situations
Most people going into a first marriage are going in as financial equals, or at least close to it. That is oftentimes not the case, for subsequent marriages. Your financial situation, and life, is usually more complicated than the first time around. There can be financial inequality between the two of you to consider and there can also be a difference in priorities in where money needs to go, especially if one or both of you have children from previous marriages.
The good news is it is usually easier to have frank financial discussions before remarrying than it would be before your first marriage, as you have more experience in what is important to be discussed and have more motivation for seeing that conversation happen after experiencing the end of your previous marriage.
The most important part of having this conversation is to be direct and to give yourself plenty of time before the marriage to discuss a plan.
(2) Different Priorities
Financial planning starts out with a conversation about the bigger picture. Financial planning is about identifying priorities and setting goals.
Make time for the two of you to sit down alone and talk about what you hope to achieve over the next year, the next five years, the next decade, and so on, both as individuals and as a couple.
Your goals will be influenced by your stage of life but can include things such as starting or rebooting a career path to building a dream home to starting a family to retiring and moving overseas. This conversation will lay the foundation for the financial plans the two of you make together.
(3) Separate Assets
One way to deal with the potential financial inequality and the other financial obligations each individual has, is to have multiple accounts set up.
Maintaining individual savings and checking accounts allow for that money to stay in your hands to allow you to provide for the other obligations you have without pulling from your partner's resources and conversely protects you from financial obligations your partner has. Still, many find it useful to also share a joint account for shared expenses that both sides contribute to so that there is not a competition to see who last paid this bill or picked up groceries.
(4) Estate Planning
You should not worry about having all of your estate planning done before the wedding because good estate planning takes time. Still, it is good to be aware of your assets and how they will be divided down the road and how remarrying will affect any current plan you have in place.
Will you need to change your plans to provide for your spouse if you pass before they do? If you have children or grandchildren, will you need to make changes to ensure that what you desire to be passed to them still will be?
Remarrying can bring about complications in your estate planning. If you are remarrying, be sure to reach out to your trusted financial and legal advisors to review and update your plans!

Here is a vintage 1950's GLYCINE AIRMAN measuring 36.25mm. in steel and displaying stellar overall condition. This watch was purchased from the original owner who kept the watch well preserved. This is an early and hard to find 1950's variation of the Airman, with the screw back as opposed to pressure fit. The original dial and handset looks excellent. The hacking seconds feature (with a wire that shoots up from 12:00 when the crown is pulled out) is working perfectly after we recently had the movement cleaned. Notice the red date and correct bubble crystal.

Different ways to distribute and share reports after they have been created. Report access control You can control who sees reports by applying a security state. You can make reports that are: Globally visible to all users Visible only to you if you are the report creator. Visible to one or more specific roles Visible to one or more specific users or groups Sharing by user, group, or role, is the primary method of sharing reports. You can use access control lists (ACLs) to control access to the underlying table or database view data. Users are able to view reports when the user does not have access rights to a data record in a data source or source table of a report. However, they are not able to see that record in a list view or in a drill-down view. Database-view-list reports require the reporting user to satisfy ACLs on the target data to view records in the list. Users without sufficient permissions see filtered list reports. Note: ACLs for a table do not propagate to database views based on that table. Database views require separate ACLs. Reports that present aggregate data, such as pie or bar reports, do not require the user to satisfy target table ACLs to view the report. ACLs are required to view the list of records when you select a portion of a report visualization. When you have access to a report but not to some of its records, you do not see those records in a drill-down list or in a list view of the data in the report. However, they are included in visualizations of data. If a user saves a global report as a group or personal report, the platform copies the report rather than changing its security state. Copying the report enables users who cannot create their own global reports to modify a global report, and then save a personal version of the report. If a user opens a personal report and tries to save it as a group or global report, the security state is changed rather than copying the report.

text of a letter from the Chairman of Leatherhead AHEAD 3 May 2004 to:
Mr Paul Coen
Chief Executive
Surrey County Council
County Hall
Kingston upon Thames
Surrey KT1 2DN
3 May 2004
Dear Mr Coen
Leatherhead Phase 2 works - Review Report - Your Response
Thank you for your reply dated 29 March 2004.
I appreciate that you do not agree with our opinion regarding the Phase 2 works, but would like you to read the attached document which invalidates the reply by Roger Archer-Reeves.
I also attach a copy of the letter we received from CABE which denies that it expressed praise for the changes to Leatherhead High Street since the unfortunate television programme, and highlights that there is an awful lot to do.
I would also correct your understanding that all is well in Leatherhead the Leatherhead Town Centre Forum has set up various working groups with the aim of eg. correcting the lack of parking spaces and poor signage. These working groups would not need to exist unless SCC and MVDC were failing to return Leatherhead to the thriving town it used to be.
I see no point in meeting with Roger Archer-Reeves to go through our report, as we do not agree with his response. The situation is, to put it bluntly, that Surrey County Council have screwed up over the Phase 2 works and owe it to the people of Leatherhead to make amends. For example, there are some remedies to some of the problems in Leatherhead that could be instigated if Surrey County Council had a will to do it.
I would like you to take a personal interest and meet with me (not the Councils) in Leatherhead so you can see for yourself what the policies of Surrey County Council have done to our beloved town.
I look forward to hearing from you again.
Yours sincerely
Paula Sabine
Leatherhead AHEAD

The burnt-out skeleton of Grenfell Tower, the 24-storey block of 127 flats at Latimer Road, west London, became a focus of recrimination. Initially, kind-hearted community action provided food and clothing for survivors, but organisation by the authorities was not apparent. After five days the police estimate for those dead or missing presumed dead was put at 79. Jeremy Corbyn, the Labour leader, said that properties in Kensington should be 'requisitioned if necessary' to house the survivors. Supporters of Mr Corbyn denounced Theresa May, the Prime Minister, for talking only to emergency services when she visited the scene. Her advisers sent her back to a church, from which she was driven in a car with cries of 'coward!' from the crowd. The Queen visited the scene. John McDonnell, the shadow chancellor, called for a million protesters to take to the streets to oust Mrs May.
Negotiations on Brexit began with Britain accepting an EU timetable. The Queen's Speech was delayed by two days until 21 June, meaning a quick getaway for the Queen to be in time for Royal Ascot.

Tim Farron resigned as leader of the Liberal Democrats after being hounded to give details of his beliefs about the sinfulness of homosexual acts: 'To be a leader, particularly of a progressive liberal party in 2017 and to live as a committed Christian and to hold faithful to the Bible's teaching has felt impossible for me,' he said.

Marine Le Pen, the leader of the Front National, won one of the party's eight seats.

BART's shooting probe missteps
THE BART POLICE SHOOTING Cops, transit agency officials made a variety of missteps
BART's investigation into a police officer's fatal shooting of an unarmed rider was plagued with problems from the start, a Chronicle investigation has found.
BART police allowed a train full of witnesses to pull out of the Fruitvale Station in Oakland early New Year's Day after Officer Johannes Mehserle shot Oscar Grant, then made little effort to contact the witnesses as they got off at other stations.
None of the seven officers at Fruitvale radioed that an officer-involved shooting had taken place. Supervisors sent to the Fruitvale Station initially were in the dark, while officers at stations down the line did not know to expect a train full of witnesses.
A key video showing that another officer on the station platform struck Grant two minutes before he was shot was available to BART, but police did not start a full investigation into the officer's actions until a TV station aired the footage Jan. 23.
BART has failed to provide basic and important information about the case to the public, even while promising transparency. The vacuum has been filled by attorney John Burris, who is seeking $25 million for Grant's family, and by speculation over amateur video footage broadcast on television and the Internet.
BART's response has been hamstrung by the agency's inability to say why Grant was shot as he lay facedown - or even if the shooting was intentional or accidental. BART officials say that is the fault of Mehserle, who refused to speak to criminal investigators and then quit before he was forced to talk to BART's internal affairs division. He has since been charged with murder.
Among the information that BART has withheld is that Grant was shot just after he had been told he was being arrested for resisting an officer, two sources familiar with the investigation told The Chronicle. BART has not said what Grant allegedly did to deserve the arrest.
On Thursday, conceding that they had lost the public's confidence in the investigation, BART officials said they will hire an outside law firm or public agency to decide whether any additional officers should be disciplined, a job normally handled by a police department's internal affairs division.
"Even if we came to the right conclusion," said Joel Keller, a member of the BART Board of Directors, "there would be mistrust."
Chaos on the platform
BART has not discussed what happened on the Fruitvale Station platform in detail. But a Chronicle review that draws on documents, video footage and dozens of interviews paints a picture of a chaotic, complex scene.
About 2 a.m., riders reported a fight as a Dublin-Pleasanton train left the West Oakland station. Grant, 22, of Hayward, was in the train's lead car with his friends after a brief New Year's Eve trip to San Francisco.
BART dispatched officers to Fruitvale to intercept the train. Mehserle, 27, who had been on the BART police force for two years, had to drive with his partner from the West Oakland station. There, a teenage boy with a semiautomatic pistol had fled from police and jumped off the station platform, breaking several bones.
Another officer was already at Fruitvale - Tony Pirone, 36, a former Marine who came to BART four years ago from the police force at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.
When they got the call about the train fight, Pirone and his partner were downstairs at Fruitvale detaining an alleged drunk. Pirone headed alone up to the platform, where the train was already waiting.
Witnesses who later talked to BART investigators said Pirone, cursing and pointing his Taser, detained Grant and his friends, who had gotten off the train.
A source familiar with the investigation said Grant and another man briefly ran back into the train; Grant then came out voluntarily, while Pirone grabbed Grant's friend and dragged him out.
Pirone took Grant's friend to the platform and handcuffed him, angering some other riders, according to a review of video footage and interviews with several sources close to the investigation.
By now, five other officers, including Mehserle, had joined Pirone and his partner at the station.
Video footage taken with a cell phone aboard the train, and aired last week on KTVU-TV, showed that Pirone suddenly rushed toward Grant as he and two other men stood by a wall near Pirone's partner and struck him. Grant then sat down, the footage shows.
According to two sources familiar with the investigation, Pirone then told Mehserle that Grant and a second man were to be arrested for resisting him.
Mehserle is seen on video footage forcing Grant to his chest and trying to handcuff him before taking out his pistol and firing.
Train pulls out
BART officers soon had the train operator shut the doors and continue east without anyone onboard being interviewed. The officers took the action because they felt they did not have control over increasingly angry riders, said sources familiar with their accounts.
The officers did not announce over their radios that there had been an officer-involved shooting.
According to several sources, a BART lieutenant at the Bay Fair Station in San Leandro obtained critical camera footage from a passenger who had been on the train. The lieutenant, unaware of what was going on, had approached the passenger out of curiosity as the passenger replayed the video.
BART Police Chief Gary Gee confirmed that the train full of witnesses was never stopped or delayed as it moved east from Fruitvale, and as passengers got off at four other stations. Officers who were sent to Dublin, the end of the line, found no witnesses to the shooting, Gee said.
Burris, the attorney for Grant's family, said the failure to announce the shooting over the radio suggested poor training. The delay, he said, "creates more of an opportunity for a coverup."
Mehserle declined to speak to criminal investigators on New Year's Day. It wasn't until Jan. 7 that BART attempted to force him to speak to internal affairs, a delay that police experts called unusual.
Gee and BART General Manager Dorothy Dugger said the focus had been on the criminal investigation and noted that any statement Mehserle gave to internal affairs could not be used to prosecute him in court.
Surprise airing of video
The controversy over Pirone's role erupted last weekend after KTVU aired a key portion of a video it acquired from a passenger soon after Jan. 1.
Although Dugger said BART had considered the TV report to be a "new allegation of unreasonable force," the full, unedited video had been on KTVU's Web site since the afternoon of Jan. 6.
Gee acknowledged Thursday that investigators had seen the footage earlier but said it wasn't conclusive on its own. He also said no one, including Grant's friends, had alleged that Pirone used unreasonable force.
The chief said BART had asked KTVU for a copy of the video early in the investigation and that the station refused to provide one. BART then called Alameda County prosecutors, who went to court to get the video.
Gee said BART still doesn't have a copy of the video, however.
"Until we get an original copy of the KTVU video and we can send it to a forensic lab," Gee said, "we cannot have any degree of certainty as to what happened in that confrontation."
Some BART officials said they felt blindsided when BART was forced into action by a TV station.
"It's embarrassing," said Lynette Sweet, a member of BART's Board of Directors. "The public has been crying out from the beginning, 'What about the other officers on the platform?' "
Pirone's attorney, Bill Rapoport, declined to comment beyond saying, "We are cooperating with every investigative agency that's inquiring."
BART tries to catch up
Increasingly, BART has tried to improve its communications with the public. Officials have held numerous hearings, created a subcommittee of directors that is looking at setting up a civilian review of the police and posted answers to "frequently asked questions" on BART's Web site.
Sweet and fellow Director Tom Radulovich, however, are pushing for the nine-member board to oust Dugger and Gee.
The president of the union representing 236 rank-and-file BART officers said for the first time Thursday that many officers felt there was a "lack of leadership" at the transit agency and had, at a Jan. 22 meeting, discussed whether to hold a no-confidence vote on Gee.
"We as an association are disappointed in management's reactionary response to this entire issue," said union leader Jesse Sekhon. "We expect better leadership."
Dugger defended BART's response, pointing to the fact that prosecutors had charged Mehserle with murder Jan. 13, one day after BART turned over its evidence. She also said she remains confident in Gee.
Gee admitted police could have done a better job discussing the case with members of the media and the public, citing "some communication gaps and lessons learned."
"There's always going to be things we could have done differently," Gee said. He declined to comment on possible mistakes by officers, but said, "If there are any red flags, we will improve on them."
One step that BART is taking: According to documents obtained by The Chronicle, the BART sergeant in charge of the New Year's Day investigation and two of his detectives are scheduled to attend a five-day course next week on investigating officer-involved shootings.

In my 27 years of life I have seen some pretty scary lineups, but I do not believe I have ever seen a line-up that is as scary as this New York Yankees lineup at full health.
Before the season even started they had two of the game's most prolific power hitters in Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge. When you add guys like Gary Sanchez, Luke Voit, and Gleyber Torres to the mix their line-up gets even scarier. Combined, the trio has hit 52 home runs and driven in 127 RBI's.
Also, if you haven't noticed, they have been playing a majority of their season without Stanton and Judge, who have been on the injured list since the early stages of the season and have combined for 169 RBI's and 413 RBI's over the past two season.
Stanton returned to the lineup on Tuesday and Judge is set to make his return in the next week or two. Even without them, they still hold the top spot in the AL East and are ranked in the top 10 of SLG, OPS, RBI, and HR'.
To add fuel to their fire, the Yankees decided to embrace their Bronx Bombers persona even further and go out and acquire the American League's home run leader. Edwin Encarnacion (the fuel) was added to the Yankees starting line-up (the fire) on Saturday night for cash considerations and minor league pitcher Juan Then. In his first game, he went 0-for-4 at the plate but proceeded to hit his first home run in pinstripes as the Yankees beat the Rays 6-3.
It's still early and the Yankees aren't at full strength yet, but when it comes down to the games that matter late in the season imagine being a starting pitcher and facing a lineup that starts with D.J. LeMahieu (.313 batting average), Luke Voit, Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, Gary Sanchez, Edwin Encarnacion, and then Gleyber Torres.
Yea it's a scary thought isn't it?

"I don't have any sexual fantasies," said Danica Danali. "I know it sounds weird but I really don't."
Danica meets JMac this go-round and he's eager to fuck her big tits and get a blow job before pounding the Texas titillator and creaming her mountainous mounds.
Only recently has Danica lifted her blow job embargo which began in 2012 when she did her first hardcore shoots here. Her first BJ at XL Girls was with Jonni Mamba.
"The first time I had sex I pretty much laid there and stared at the ceiling. I don't remember much about it except wanting it to be over." Things change.
Then Danica met the man she would marry. When she started doing adult scenes, they would check out the finished videos and photos although Danica says she prefers the photos over the videos.
"I can't imagine someone can come up with a better compliment than having the greatest fan-base ever and also that production companies still want me to model for them."
What gives Danica a lady-boner?
"I get super turned-on when I get felt up. I love boobs myself. I like watching public groping videos. Or watching someone getting groped at work. It turns me on."
"I don't have any sexual fantasies," said Danica Danali. "I know it sounds weird but I really don't."

Chicken tagine with preserved lemons and olives is one of the most well-known dishes from Morocco. With the recipe so readily available, I felt it didn't warrant another—but the flavors are an essential part of Moroccan cuisine. So I started to experiment with it, and this is my interpretation: a modern, zingy salad inspired by the traditional version. The signature flavors of tagine became a marinade for the meat, and the other ingredients—olives, preserved lemons, couscous, herbs—form the salad. This is perfect for a summer supper with a cold glass of vino and if the weather's lousy, it will bring a little of that hazy heat from the dusty hills of Morocco to brighten up your home.
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 4-1/2tablespoons olive oil
- Juice of 2-1/2 lemons
- 1-1/4 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 1 cup couscous
- 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
- 1 fennel bulb, finely sliced
- A 4-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1 preserved lemon (see page 184), pith discarded and zest finely chopped
- 3/4 cup pitted green olives, roughly chopped
- A handful of finely chopped cilantro leaves, plus a small handful of leaves to garnish
- A handful of finely chopped mint leaves
- Sea salt
Serves: 4
- Using a mortar and pestle, mash the garlic into a paste with a little salt. Add the cumin, ground coriander, ginger, turmeric, two tablespoons of the olive oil, and the juice of 1/2 lemon and mix well. Put the chicken in a mixing bowl and add the spice paste. Mix everything together really well so that the chicken thighs are completely coated. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight.
- Put the couscous into a small bowl and pour over enough warm water to cover by about 1/4 inch. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap.
- Put the red onion in a small mixing bowl, then add the juice of 1/2 lemon and a small pinch of salt. Toss together and leave for a few minutes to mellow the rawness of the onion. Add the fennel and 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil and toss together.
- Put the couscous in a large mixing bowl. Add the chickpeas, fennel and onion, preserved lemon, olives, herbs, juice of 1 lemon, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Mix everything together really well.
- Meanwhile preheat the broiler to 500°F or its highest setting. Place the chicken on a foil-covered broiler pan and broil for 7 to 8 minutes each side or until cooked through and a little golden. Once cooked, slice into thin strips, season with a little salt, and squeeze over the juice of 1/2 lemon.
- To serve, turn the salad out onto a large platter. Arrange the chicken over the top and spoon over any juices left in the pan. Garnish with cilantro leaves and serve immediately.

I love propagating all plants, but above all I have a particular fondness for trees that I have raised from seed. So much is invested: the collection, the sowing, the waiting, the watching, the watering. Then by magic, or so it seems, a tiny green shoot appears, and others soon follow. So a few years ago I was walking through the Cambridgeshire village of Hemingford Grey with my sister, when we stopped in our tracks to admire a beautiful 'Golden Rain Tree' in the churchyard. Instantly I made a mental note to ask Fran to return in a few...Continue reading
Sphaeralcea incana 'Sourup'
I just love mallows, and can't understand why they are not more popular; they have so much going for them. As a genus, sphaeralceas are sun loving, mostly hardy and very free flowering from mid-summer through to late autumn. They are undemanding but need well drained soil. We are on clay, so I often add a couple of spadefuls of grit at planting time … organic matter is good but grit is better! Many sphaeralceas make superb specimens in a pot ( 'Newleaze Coral' is beautiful), but I have found that Sourup prefers to be in a border where...Continue reading
Rosa bonica
I've known bonica for a long time as I first took notice of it in my mother's garden many years ago. She grew masses of roses and therefore had that understanding of their ways that can only come from growing them. I remember wondering, when she and my father downsized, how on earth she would choose which roses to grow in their new and much smaller garden. It turned out to be easier than I thought, and bonica was on that list. I not only took note, I took cuttings; one of which is the very plant we grow...Continue reading

Importance of Hiring a Professional Mover
We have to admit, moving can be the most difficult things that will happen in one's life. It is a hard challenge to move. The challenge is starting when you back those movers to move the belongings. The next challenge is how to move those stuff away. But, you need not to put your life on hold. Asking someone to help you move can be the best thing to do. Professional movers can help you whether you're trying to move to a small studio or to a nicer home. We need to understand why we need to hire professional movers to handle this delicate situation. Here are some reasons why it makes sense to hire professionals.
One thing about professional movers is that they possess the right tools. The tools can be a good way to bring down the risks and avoid the problems. It is possible you may not be in the possession of the right tools that the professionals may have in their arsenal. The best way is not to force yourself in doing a thing you have no idea about. The things is that movers are not just trucks, they are people that move your stuff safely to another location. They are professionals that have the right tools to make the moving easier and safer. They have the training to get the belongings to the new location safe. It is best to know what the tools being used by movers with information available online. There are tons of information that can help you be convinced about the rationale of using of these professionals.
These people who move stuff know how to handle things properly and without risk.
They have been trained how to handle belongings properly. It is possible to have plenty of heavy stuff if you are moving to a new home. It is easier to get the stuff upstairs with the help of professional movers. If you are adamant about the safety, the trucks used to move are more likely to be insured. Also, the trucks will not make the belongings wet in a time when there is rain. It is great to have the stuff dry. Movers know their stuff and will handle the belongings easier.
It would be nicer and will give people peace of mind with the extra assurance. The thing is that most of the movers who are operating are with insurance. It means there is an insurance that will cover for damage in the event there will be damage. In most areas, moving companies are asked to cut an insurance policy before they operate. It would be best to ask them about the insurance before you hire them.

Manifold are the causes of my writer's block, and few are my written words: I can neither scribble in a free and unstinted manner, nor compose in a formal and plodding way, because I simply can't begin, can't tutoyer my pal The Page, can't honorifically address my lord, that daunting void.(by Rudi)
My writer's block was lifted the night I attended an awards ceremony for Humanitarian of the Year and found inspiration for a new protagonist and series of novellas from the life story of Dr. Good E. Tooshews, who was rewarded for being ever gallant with his unstinted efforts in manifold projects to help those in need, which led our king to tutoyer the good man, putting him on an equal basis with his majesty's closest associates.(by wordgirl)

You want to be able to trust your dentist, for the same reason you want to trust your car mechanic: Most of us don't have the expertise to evaluate the diagnosis.
While most dentists are ethical, it's smart to remember that the degree on the wall isn't a guarantee of honesty. Dental scams sink their teeth into unsuspecting patients every year, says James Quiggle, a spokesman for the Coalition Against Insurance Fraud.
"The most frequent dental scams are inflating claims, delivering worthless treatment that patients don't need and billing insurers for phantom treatment that the dentist never delivered," he says. "Added up, these cons can mean big dollars for a dentist's bank account."
If you don't have dental coverage, the schemes can threaten your hard-earned savings.
The National Health Care Anti-Fraud Association estimates that Americans lose about $68 billion dollars each year to health care fraud — which can include these five dental scams.

Ministry of Youth and Sports (Turkey)
The Ministry of Youth and Sports of Turkish Republic (Turkish: Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Gençlik ve Spor Bakanlığı) is a governmental agency within the Cabinet of Turkey in charge of regulating activities related to sports and youth development in Turkish Republic. The ministry is headed by Akif Çağatay Kılıç.[1] Deputy minister is Ass. Prof. Dr. Yusuf Tekin, and undersecretary is Ass. Prof. Dr. Hakan Hakyemez.[2]
|Gençlik ve Spor Bakanlığı
|Agency overview
|Örnek Mah. Oruç Reis Cad. 13
Altındağ, Ankara
|Agency executives
On June 29, 1938, the Directoriate of Physical Education was established. Following the 1969 general election, in the Cabinet Süleyman Demirel II, the Ministry of Youth and Sports was formed on November 3 for the first time, and İsmet Sezgin was appointed as its first minister. After the 1983 general election, the ministry was renamed National Education, Youth and Sports on December 14.[3]
The Ministry of Youth and Sports was re-established as an independent ministry on June 29, 2011 after the forming of Cabinet Erdoğan III. In the past, the governmental activities on youth and sports affairs were carried out by different governmental agencies subordinated to a state minister, who had also other responsibilities. Those organizations were brought together under the umbrella of the newly established ministry while the status of the provincial organizations were redefined in accordance with the alignment of the acquis for Accession of Turkey to the European Union.[2][4]
On 2017, the Ministry has used a picture of United States gold medalist swimmer Dana Vollmer in one of its posters but digitally changed the U.S. flag on her cap with a Turkish one. The poster also had "Powerful Turkey" written above the swimmer's image. Ministry's choice was criticized.[5]

Before I start this post: let me clarify, I do not believe I am particularly attractive and I believe this situation would happen with almost every girl the same age – especially pale, blonde ones.
When people used to speak of French men I had an image in my head of wonderful tanned men with beautiful hair, slight stubble, a sexy accent and the ability to cook very, very well. Or at least (I hoped) that they'd look like the man in that beautiful Audrey Tautou Chanel advert…
Of course, the average French Joe Bloggs isn't probably like that, but I did find the reality a bit startling. What alarmed me the most was the open sexism which I faced when I was in France, compared to England.
In England if you're a young woman you're sort of used to "rude boiz" on the tube perhaps staring at you, but most of the time will just talk to their 'gangsta' friends rather than approach you. Most of us have been occasionally beeped at by cars, and being whistled at by builders on building estates is an embarrassing (and for some – not me – flattering) experience. Nonetheless, I found this sexist, cat-calling mentality much more open in France.
When I lived in Antibes, in the South of France, I would have men stopping their cars and insisting that I take their number. I would walk the 40 minute walk to school every day and would hear men shout a comment or two as I walked down the street. One time a man followed me on a twenty minute walk to the train station insisting I go on a date with them.
In Paris the mentality was similar. I have been to Paris at least 10 times before, but many were with a former boyfriend. Although I had many men staring at me they were warned off by the male presence. When we went to Paris this weekend, however, it was a different story. On each metro I would have men – old men, black men, white men, young men, fat men, thin men, – all LICK THEIR LIPS at me. A few kept winking at me. Another stared at my chest so much I had to cover that whole area with my hands. When we walked about 10 metres down the road we would have men screaming "beautiful", "sexy" etc. Do they really think women will turn around?! When has it EVER happened that when a man goes "hello ladies I love you" that the woman TURNS AROUND, and says "OH, TAKE ME NOW, RAVISH ME HERE, I LOVE YOU TOO"?!
When we were standing on a metro a man stood so close to my friend that he was pulsating against the back of her for fifteen minutes as she was edging away. As we disembarked the metro he did the same to me, and I can only pray it was a phone in his pocket.
The point is, this behaviour is DISGUSTING. I know a lot of men in France aren't like this, but from what I've seen and experienced, it is a lot more prominent than in the UK. Is it because we looked so much like tourists because of our (on Kayleigh's part) incredibly pale and (on my part) pale and pasty skin and my incredibly blonde hair? Have you ever experienced anything like this? Would you say that French – and mediterranean men – have a lack of respect for women than in the UK? Or do you conversely believe that the UK is more sexist? I'm going to post a blog post soon from a few interviews and opinions from people who have lived abroad and how men treat them. I know sexism still occurs in Britain, but from my experience it is definitely worse in over there than here – but do you? Please comment, I'd love to know!

And everyone decries the lack of bipartisanship in Washington; this is actually fairly bipartisan. If you listened to the Democratic debate the other night, the anti-China rhetoric was pretty—was pretty robust. What has been your experience with China? I mean, for example, a couple of questions come to mind. Have you—have you had a problem with that with China?
What has—what has been your experience with them? Have they been essentially a good partner or something less? We are prohibited from doing business. Now, we do have some points of presence and so forth. Now that has changed, obviously, with the acquisition of Time Warner. It would be the Chinese situation and the Mexico situation. HAASS: If we end up in a world where we have, if not divorce, separation from China, and fairly separate supply lines and markets, and a lack of technology sharing, how much more difficult does that make business for you, or not?
I mean, like if we end up in a slightly bifurcated world, what does it mean for a large company like yours?
I think it makes a heck of a difference just on the United States, and a company like ours is dependent upon the health and vibrancy of the United States economy. And when you think about where is the growth in the global economy, you know, Asia is where the growth is. And so where do you have to look, you know, Africa? Perhaps Latin America we could do well with. And one of the areas that would, obviously, have consequences for would be things like 5G.
And to put this into perspective, if Huawei could achieve in China a 90 percent share of Chinese communications, market share, they by definition have 30 to 40 percent global share. Now, if they could get another 10, 20 percent outside of China and start to get 40, 50 percent global share, this is a problem. This is a problem for the West. This is a problem for Western supply chain. How could they get that other 10 to 20 percent share around the globe? You talk about subsidies. They have 90 percent share in China.
International Relations and the Problem of Difference (Global Horizons)
Now they go bid in Europe, what do you think happens? The flip.
- Account Options.
- Bernsteins analytic continuation of complex powers (1995)(en)(9s).
- Mostafa Abdelhalim.

- 101 Knitting To Go Projects?
- The Regime of Demetrius of Phalerum in Athens, 317–307 BCE: A Philosopher in Politics.
- International Careers | Public & Civil Jobs | swisexizex.tk.
They bid at 20, 30 percent discounts to everybody else, and so as a result they start taking significant share outside of China. You go to Latin America, these shares are really high. Go to Africa; Huawei shares are really high. And so this company is gaining significant share in mobile technology around the world.
You go, well, OK, fine, but what about 5G? They do not allow interoperability of their 4G equipment to their 5G equipment. Forty to 50 percent 5G market share. This is something that we in the West need to be conscious of and aware of. HAASS: Let me return to that in a few minutes, but let me—I want to touch on a couple of other subjects before we open it up. I want to talk about corporate America for a second. I assume many people in the room saw the Business Roundtable statement.
I think you were one of the signatories.

After ruling out other causes for your jaw pain, your doctor or dentist has made a diagnosis: a temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD). With TMD, your pain symptoms and other dysfunctions are due to a problem associated with the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) that connects your lower jaw (mandible) to your upper skull (cranium).
There are a number of treatment options, but most can be classified as either aggressive or conservative. Aggressive treatments are more interventional and target problems with the teeth such as bite problems or jaw relationships as they relate to the bite, which are thought to be underlying causes for TMD. Such treatments include orthodontics to realign teeth, crown or bridgework, or surgical treatment to the jaw or joint itself. These treatments are controversial and irreversible — with no guarantee of symptom relief.
It's thought by many to be appropriate, then, to start with more conservative treatments. Many of these are based on treating the TMJ — which is a joint, a moveable bony structure connected by muscles and tendons — with an orthopedic approach, using treatments similar to those used for other joint problems.
Here, then, are some of those conservative therapies that may relieve your TMD pain and other symptoms.
Physical Therapy. Commonly used to treat pain and dysfunction in other joints, physical therapies like manual manipulation, massage, alternating hot and cold packs or exercises can be used to relax, stretch or retrain the muscles that operate the TMJ while reducing pain and inflammation.
Medications. Medications may be incorporated into the treatment plan to relieve pain, reduce inflammation or relax tense muscles. Besides prescription drugs, over-the-counter anti-inflammatory drugs (such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen) are also commonly used.
Bite Appliances. If night-time teeth grinding or clenching habits are a primary cause for the TMD, you may benefit from wearing an occlusal bite guard while you sleep, designed to specifically fit your upper teeth. Because the lower teeth can't grip the guard's smooth plastic surface when biting down, they'll more likely produce less force. This gives the jaw muscles a chance to relax during sleep.
Diet changes. Changing to softer foods, which don't require strenuous chewing, and eliminating the chewing gum habit will further help reduce stress on the TMJs and also give your muscles a chance to relax and heal.
If you would like more information on TMD and treatment options, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Seeking Relief from TMD."
A recent episode of "America's Got Talent" featured an engaging 93-year-old strongman called The Mighty Atom Jr. The mature muscleman's stunt: moving a full-sized car (laden with his octogenarian "kid brother," his brother's wife, plus Atom's "lady friend") using just his teeth. Grinning for host Howie Mandel, Atom proudly told the TV audience that his teeth were all his own; then he grasped a leather strap in his mouth, and successfully pulled the car from a standstill.
We're pleased to see that the Atom has kept his natural teeth in good shape: He must have found time for brushing and flossing in between stunts. Needless to say, his "talent" isn't one we'd recommend trying at home. But aside from pulling vehicles, teeth can also be chipped or fractured by more mundane (yet still risky) activities — playing sports, nibbling on pencils, or biting too hard on ice. What can you do if that happens to your teeth?
Fortunately, we have a number of ways to repair cracked or chipped teeth. One of the easiest and fastest is cosmetic bonding with tooth-colored resins. Bonding can be used to fill in small chips, cracks and discolorations in the teeth. The bonding material is a high-tech mixture of plastic and glass components that's extremely lifelike, and can last for several years. Plus, it's a procedure that can be done right in the office, with minimal preparation or discomfort. However, it may not be suitable for larger chips, and it isn't the longest-lasting type of restoration.
When more of the tooth structure is missing, a crown (or cap) might be needed to restore the tooth's appearance and function. This involves creating a replacement for the entire visible part of the tooth in a dental lab — or in some cases, right in the office. It typically involves making a model of the damaged tooth and its neighbors, then fabricating a replica, which will fit perfectly into the bite. Finally, the replacement crown is permanently cemented to the damaged tooth. A crown replacement can last for many years if the tooth's roots are in good shape. But what if the roots have been dislodged?
In some cases it's possible to re-implant a tooth that has been knocked out — especially if it has been carefully preserved, and receives immediate professional attention. But if a tooth can't be saved (due to a deeply fractured root, for example) a dental implant offers today's best option for tooth replacement. This procedure has a success rate of over 95 percent, and gives you a natural looking replacement tooth that can last for the rest of your life.
So what have we learned? If you take care of your teeth, like strongman Atom, they can last a long time — but if you need to move your car, go get the keys.
If you would like more information about tooth restoration, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can learn more by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Crowns & Bridgework."

Whether you had a bad experience with a dentist in the past, or you are afraid of going to the doctor in general, you can be assured that our Norcross, GA dentist staff will take every step possible to make you comfortable during your visit.
We recommend taking the following steps in reducing your dental anxiety, which can help you have a more pleasant experience:

By calling us ahead of time to explain your concerns, we are better able to work with you to achieve a comfortable appointment. This can include increasing communication about what we are doing, playing music that comforts you, or creating a hand signal that indicates when you may need a break from a cleaning or dental procedure. There are many steps we can take to help - you need only tell us in advance so we can prepare.
Getting a good night's rest prior to your dentist's appointment can help you to feel better and less anxious.

When you undergo a dental treatment, holding your breath can only make you feel more panicked. Practice breathing in and out through your nose prior to your appointment to slow your breath. You can also think of positive thoughts to focus on, such as a favorite place or happy memory. This can reduce your anxiety and help you feel more at ease during your appointment.
For more information on how our Norcross, GA dentist's office can relieve your dental anxiety, please call our office at (770) 446-5700.
Gum pain is nothing to be ignored. Whether an individual has red, swollen and bleeding gums or has canker sores. gum pain and sensitivity can be treated and prevented, too.
What causes gum pain?
An individual with gums that are swollen and sensitive may be suffering from a common oral infection called gingivitis. According to the National Institutes of Health, many American adults suffer from this irritation of the gums which has its origin in the build-up of sticky plague and tartar at the gum line. If not addressed, gingivitis can progress to periodontal disease which causes gums and bone to recede and which can lead to tooth loss.
Another source of gum pain is canker sores, small white sensitive spots on the gums or on other places in the mouth. These bothersome sores can be caused by:
What should be done about gum pain?
There are some immediate treatments an individual can try when his gums hurt. These include rinsing with warm salt water several times a day and also applying over the counter topical analgesics such as Orajel. Persistent gum pain requires a trip to the dentist.
Prevention is the best treatment.
Correct and routine oral care can help keep gum pain from starting. Of course, brush teeth after meals and at bedtime using a soft or medium bristled brush with a gentle circular motion. This removes the sticky plague that forms on teeth and gums after eating and overnight. Daily flossing between the teeth is critical, too, as this curtails the formation of hard, yellow tartar, the biggest enemy of healthy gums.
Your dental hygienist will be happy to show you the correct way to brush and to move floss between and around teeth, using a motion that removes the debris but does not abrade the gums. Floss at least once daily.
Visits to the dentist for semi-annual cleanings and for x-rays and exams will help prevent gum pain, too. Be sure to visit his office whenever you are concerned about the health of gums and teeth.
In addition, healthy lifestyle habits are paramount to a healthy, pain-free mouth. Eating a good diet, reducing stress and stopping smoking are tried and true ways to keep a great smile.
Don't wait if you are experiencing tooth or gum pain.
Orson Baek DDS, MS invites you to visit his Norcross, Georgia office for your next dental check-up. He is highly skilled in restorative and preventative dentistry and specializes in periodontics. Call 770-446-5700 to set an appointment.

Farewell letter from the editor: CID is more than the sum of its parts
It is with some sadness that I write these lines as it is the last CID editor's letter that I shall pen. As many of you know, I am leaving for a fresh challenge after a thoroughly enjoyable period editing Commercial Interior Design magazine.
Over my two and a half years at the helm, I've produced 30 issues, and it was a real thrill to support and write about such a thriving and creative industry and witness the growth of the region as it becomes a global hub for design.
I've witnessed such strides as the opening and growth of Dubai Design District, now home to so many companies at the forefront of design innovation. My team and I were able to support the initial stages of Dubai Design Week, Amman Design Week, Beirut Design Fair and Saudi Design Week, which are all now becoming important events in the regional design calendar.
Along with my colleagues, I was privileged to be among the first to step inside the spectacular Dubai Opera House and the Louvre Abu Dhabi. But with the same passion we've covered the openings of numerous commercial offices, restaurants, hotels and schools across the region, each using design to enhance people's experience and their surroundings.
I always regarded Commercial Interior Design magazine to be an open platform for designers and a forum for debate within the industry. And I can truly say, I have never been disappointed with the standard and quality of responses to the issues raised in the magazine.
All of these experiences combined with the fascinating insights from your businesses have made for a wonderful 30 months.
On leaving, I know that CID will always be a success as it is so much more than just the editorial team. These pages truly reflect the contribution made by talented industry professionals.
Once again thank you to all of our readers and clients for making my term as editor such a great and memorable experience.
