Ginkgo Is A Tried & Trusted Herbal Medicine | Amoils.com
Medicinal herbs have been in use for thousands of years in all parts of the world and are well known for their effectiveness in the treatment of many diseases. Herbal remedies can boost the immune system, increase the body's resistance to infections, heal allergies and raise and renew the vitality of the body.
Herbal medicine began with primitive cultures using different plants for shelter, clothing and medicine. The medicinal benefits of plants were learnt through trial and error methods in addition to observing animals. Gradually man's knowledge of herbs and their medicinal uses advanced over time.
Ginkgo is just such a beneficial medicinal herb
Ginkgo is one of the oldest living tree species and is sometimes known as Maidenhair tree, Kew tree or the Japanese silver apricot. Both in Europe and the US, ginkgo biloba supplements are one of the most popular medicinal herbal remedies used.
In traditional Chinese medicine, the seeds of the ginkgo tree are used to work on the "lung" and "kidney" meridians and are used for asthmatic disorders.
The seeds are also roasted and eaten as a snack and can be used in soups, stir fries and stews but some people will suffer side effects from roasted ginkgo seeds such as diarrhea, nausea, indigestion, vomiting, allergic skin reactions. Be aware that fresh ginkgo seeds or too many roasted ginkgo seeds can even lead to breathing difficulty, seizures, unconsciousness and death.
Edible oil is also obtained from the seeds
The health benefits of ginkgo are numerous and include:
- Taking internally to combat asthma and allergic inflammatory responses.
- Helping with senile dementia and Alzehiemer's disease.
- Aiding in mental alertness and mental function and to improve memory including age-related memory loss.
- Helping with circulatory complaints and varicose veins.
- Reducing macular degeneration (eye problems linked to aging).
- Treating sexual dysfunction. Since Gingko biloba improves blood flow, and especially microcirculation, it is helpful to increase blood flow to the genitals by stimulating the action of the endothelium derived relaxing factor and appears to be very effective in the treatment of erectile dysfunction caused by a lack of proper blood flow to the genitals.
- Enhancing blood circulation.
- Treating tinnitus.
- Using the leaves to stabilize an irregular heartbeat while the seeds are useful for coughs with thick phlegm as well as urinary incontinence.
Ginkgo leaves contain two types of chemicals (flavonoids and terpenoids) believed to have potent antioxidant properties
Antioxidants are substances that attack free radicals – those compounds in the body that damage cell membranes, tamper with DNA and even cause cell death. Free radicals occur naturally in the body and increase in number with aging. But environmental toxins (including ultraviolet light, radiation, cigarette smoking and air pollution) can also increase the number of free radicals.
Free radicals are thought to contribute to many health problems including heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. The antioxidants found in Ginkgo biloba benefit all those suffering from these various conditions by neutralizing the free radicals and reducing or even preventing some of the damage caused.
There are also some Ginkgo biloba side effects
- Taking large amounts of the herb may cause dementia, headaches, diarrhea and vomiting, digestive problems, allergic skin reactions or muscle weakness.
- If you are already on a blood thinning medication, then taking ginkgo biloba orally may increase the effects of that medication.
- Ginkgo leave extracts should not be taken by those with bleeding disorders because it can affect blood clotting.
- The same may affect blood sugar levels so should not be taken by diabetics unless under the supervision of a health care provider.
- Epileptics should avoid ginkgo because it could increase the frequency of seizures.
However, for most people there will be a low risk of any side effects. This is what makes herbal remedies so appealing when compared with commercial drugs.
For centuries, herbal medicine has increased overall health, vitality, and life expectancy.

Life Insurance: Who Really Needs It?
Life insurance is a topic that makes some people uncomfortable. Few want to think about the inevitability of graduating from this world to the great beyond.
Continue Reading Below
Yet life insurance is an essential tool for keeping loved ones financially secure after death.
Those with dependents are foolish if they don't at least consider purchasing life insurance, says David Marlett, chair of the Department of Finance, Banking and Insurance at Appalachian State University in Boone, N.C.
In the following interview, Marlett shares his thoughts about who should buy life insurance and who might be OK skipping it. He also offers tips for zeroing in on exactly how much coverage you might need.
Life insurance is a product that sometimes confuses and intimidates people. In a nutshell, who needs this insurance, and who does not?
Anyone with dependents should strongly consider purchasing life insurance. Dependents could include a spouse, child or even elderly parents in your care. Young, single people without children do not have a significant need for life insurance.
Life insurance basically can be divided into two types: temporary and permanent. Do you have some tips for determining which product is right for you?
For most people, temporary (commonly called "term") insurance will meet their needs. It is much less expensive than permanent life insurance. Term insurance is basically a commodity, and you can purchase (it) from a wide range of highly rated insurers. It is also simple and easy to understand.
How can people best determine the amount of coverage they need?
Typically, it is based on how much income your dependents will need if you are no longer able to support (them) with your income. You will often see rules of thumb that say you should purchase five, seven, even 10 times your annual income. This really oversimplifies the process, though, and neglects to include very important factors.
For example, how old are your dependents? Is your spouse employed? What are your debts and financial needs? There are several excellent online calculators that provide a more thorough needs analysis that can guide the consumer to the appropriate coverage amount.
Do single people need life insurance?
If they have dependents, they have a very significant need for life insurance.
Once the children have flown the nest, does it make sense to drop life insurance? What are the benefits and risks of doing so?
It could make sense to do this. However, the spouse may have a justified concern. Term insurance becomes more expensive as you get older, and you may decide to either eliminate or reduce the coverage as your needs decrease. This will save premium dollars. Your spouse, though, may still want you to keep at least a portion of the life insurance to protect him (or) her.
Ideally, your savings increase and your debts decrease as you age, so you have (a) reduced need for life insurance. However, these days, that may not be the case.
Furthermore, once kids leave the nest, that doesn't mean they are not coming back. They could easily become dependents again, and it may be difficult to purchase new life insurance after you have canceled an older policy that you applied for when you were younger and healthy.
What are some of the most exciting innovations you are seeing in terms of life insurance?
Actually, I prefer to keep it basic and simple. Bells and whistles that are added on just create clutter and add-in fees.
We would like to thank David Marlett, chair of the Department of Finance, Banking and Insurance at Appalachian State University in Boone, N.C., for his insights.

I am meeting my new self and I like her. She was birthed along the twisted widowed road. She can love again - she can give her heart. She can live in the moment and when she gets ahead of herself - most times, she can come back to that centered place inside. She can fling fear aside and step forward. She can be here in the moment. She can forgive herself and others. I embrace her - she is the old me and more.
This is not about love affairs. Oh, I do adore this blue-eyed guy and his arrival has been a gift. He has given me hugs, laughter, kisses and companionship. Is there a little part of me that suspects he might be here for many seasons? Yes - however, today is just fine. And if that is not to be - so be it. My happiness is not dependent upon one person.
I have written much about the personal transformation brought about by my widowed journey. How amazing it is to meet the new woman I have become and feel the transformation deep in my bones and in my spirit.
The next doors are opening - oh yes, my dear blog readers - I am here. I am whole. Strong, capable, creative, resilient. I am meeting my new self. I embrace this transformed woman - she is worth it. Oh Sister Moon - Great Spirit - thank you.

I was so glad this year's Traverse 18 travel blogger conference took place in Rotterdam, as it gave me the perfect excuse to finally visit The Netherland's largest harbour city. I had heard lots of good things from friends who have already been there and couldn't wait to explore it for myself. The Traverse guys had lots of fun events lined up for us, such as a chocolate tasting at Chcocafe, a walking tour with Rotterdam Pages, a visit to both the Marriott Hotel (making the best of the great views from the top with a skyline photography class from Michael of London View Points) and the Hilton Hotel (where we had an Instagram workshop by local photographer Sabine Metz, got to see the Presidential Suite and a behind the scenes tour) and a barista master class with Ketel Binkie Coffee to name just a few.
You don't need to be a blogger to have a brilliant time in Rotterdam though. It's a lively city full of positive energy known for its daring architecture and you can easily see all the sights on foot or by bike.
Join a Guided Walking Tour to Get an Overview
I went on a tour by Rotterdam Pages and it was fantastic! It was really fun and personal and our guides Hassan and Ferah seemed to have endless enthusiasm for their city, which was really contagious. They showed us all the main sights like the iconic Cube Houses, the harbour, the impressive Markthal market hall (see pic below, which also houses some apartments with amazing views) and some street art and it was a great introduction for doing some more exploring on our own.
Explore the Inside of one of the Famous Cube Houses
I returned to the Cube Houses a few day afterwards as one is set up like a museum and it's only €3 to visit. It's not that spectacular, but for an interior design fan like myself, it was great to see the interior and how the shape of the building influences what kind of space you have available on the inside.
Visit the Cat Café and Other Quirky Places
I also often enjoy checking out some more unusual places, like the local cat café. This one, Pebbles Kitty Cat Café is bright and spacious and when I arrived two Dutch bloggers were busy taking pictures and videos. There is a €2.50 'cat tax' but the prices for coffee, cake and sandwiches are reasonable and it's very clean, so no worries in terms of hygiene, plus the adorable kitties will leave you smiling for sure.
Another great spot was the ChcoCafe (see pic below) with one location in the Markthal and a sit-down café in Oude Binnenweg. Imagine choosing from over 60 types of chocolate on a stick to dissolve in hot milk, chocolates of all shapes and flavours and lots of other goodies too hard to resist. You won't want to leave!
I also like picking interesting places for lunch or dinner and another blogger had recommended Burgertrut ('Burger Bitch'), which serves vegan, vegetarian and organic burgers and whose profits support the local art project Roodkapje. One of their employees has a cute chihuaha, but I missed him unfortunately. I asked them whether customers are OK with a dog (I most definitely would be!) and they said, if they are not, they can go somewhere else. Rotterdam is a lot like that. Openminded and practical locals who get on with their lives and enjoy it a lot.
Have a Pubcrawl with an International Twist at Witte de Withstraat
As far as I could see, Rotterdamers are always out and about and there is a huge café and pub scene. Some of my favourite places for going out at night was (accidentally) the street I was staying in, Oude Binnenweg, with a handful of great bars (plus the chocolate café, see above, a cheese shop, bookshop and record shop), you can't miss the street, it's the pedestrian area right beside the 'Santa Claus' sculpture.
The other area and the main party street is Witte de Withestraat a few blocks further down. There are restaurants with food from around the world as well as lots of local dishes, such as 'kapsalon' (literally meaning 'barber shop', but now a popular local version of a layered kebab with fries on a plate, veggie options exist, too).
See the City from the Water
Watertaxis are a popular type of transport in Rotterdam and they are super fast, imagine crossing the river like James Bond, just in a slightly smaller boat! When you visit the Maritime Museum, the ticket includes access to various ships anchored right outside it, which will give you unusual viewpoints to photograph the skyline. Once you're tired from all the sightseeing, rent a Hot Tog with some friends, it's like a hot tub turned into a boat and apparently they are coming to London soon.
Have Breakfast on an Island in Katendrecht
For a bit of quiet time out, head to Kopi Soe Soe on the island of Katendrecht (easy to reach from the centre on foot, by bike or public transport) and start your day with coffee and cheesecake. This former fairly industrial area is now rapidly becoming popular and the Fenix Food Factory has many food stalls and other shops with creative things to browse.
Spend a Morning in the Pretty Town of Delft
Lots of people recommended Delft to me and the return ticket was only €7.80, so I decided to go there for breakfast on Friday morning. I found a café online that came recommended due to its appeltaart, so Kuch Café was my first choice and it was lovely eating the still warm cake and sipping my latte watching the local square wake up. I then took a walk to the windmill, the two churches and along the small canals (nothing like Amsterdam or Bruges, but more chilled) before hopping on the train back to Rotterdam.
Stay in a Cosy Hostel
There are lots of nice options to stay in Rotterdam and anywhere central is pretty much walkable, so take your pick. I stayed at a boutique hotel above a restaurant (which was fairly noisy, but the room was so cosy and sunny I didn't really mind). I also often like to get a single room in a nice hostels, so you get a good night's sleep, but also have the advantage of friendly company. Ani & Haakien is such a place, including a garden with a hammock and a sweet fluffy cat. Room was a hostel I spent a lot of time in as there was live music one night and one of our workshops, a fun barista class from Ketelbinkie Coffee took place there, too. King Kong Hostel on Witte de Withstraat also looked pretty cool with wooden furnishings and a huge terrace, perfect for soaking up the sun.
Explore the Street Art around Town
I also loved how much street art there is in Rotterdam, one piece is even climbable (the first couple of meters anyway!). You can start exploring the side streets around Witte de Withstraat, but you'll soon notice colourful murals and quirky sculptures everywhere.
Cultural Events and Festivals Galore
While I visited I managed to catch a brilliant contemporary dance show (Tinkling 1), which was part of the Opera Festival, and I just missed a very fun sounding festival called the Rooftop days where you get access to rooftops for the best views of the city. There was also Rotterdam's first vegan festival on while we were in the city, but there just wasn't enough time for everything.
Grab some brochures from the tourist office, hostels or cultural venues and, most importantly, quiz the locals about the best places to go. In the Netherlands pretty much everyone speaks English, so it's easy to get talking to people, e.g. when I saw a guy looking at a plaque (In Dutch) on a building and asked him what it was all about, he gave me a mini lecture about the history of this part of the city, which made him a bit late for work and completely made my morning.
Yes, I'm a little bit positively biased because I got to explore Rotterdam with a bunch of other enthusiastic intrepid travel bloggers, but seriously, now that there is a direct three-hour train link from London and good links to lots of other European cities, there really is no excuse not to visit. Whether you're into architecture, culture, art (there is a whole museum quarter, which is already on my list for next time), are a foodie, a coffee or animal lover, this lively place has it all. Don't be deceived by its modern, edgy exterior, Rotterdam has a big heart and will make you feel welcome from the moment you arrive.

On this and the following pages, we will look at how to sort data in Java. To start off
with, we'll assume that the problem we have is the following:
By "one-off", we mean that we don't need to keep the list permanently in order
as we add and remove elements, though Java does also provide 'permanently sorted' structures
if that is what we require.
But generally, sorting a list or array can be broken down into two problems:
Strictly speaking, these problems aren't totally separate, because some algorithms
rely on us being able to measure how far apart two items are.
But for sorting in Java, we can generally see the problem in the above two
stages. And in fact, for most practical purposes:
In other words, for the simplest case of sorting a list of Strings or
Integers (among other 'simple' objects), Java provides a one-line solution.
On the next pages, we look at:
1. Actually, most of what we discuss will apply to sorting an array
of primitives too.

Tiger Town USA Becoming a National Brand
COLUMBIA - A new wave of fans made their way to Tiger Town Friday for the first football game in the Southeastern Conference. A new initiative is underway to brand Columbia on a national level as "Tiger Town USA".
Chairman of Atkins Companies, Tom Atkins, started the initiative to not only put Columbia on the map but to help attract more visitors.
"We found out too many people don't know where Columbia, Missouri is. They think it's like Columbia, South Carolina," Atkins said.
The new slogan Tiger Town with USA added to the end seeks to benefit the City of Columbia, the University of Missouri and other local educational institutions along with surrounding businesses.
Atkins is in the process of getting 501(c)3 status. This would allow the non-profit branding group to accept tax deductible donations and keep on-going fees low.
The Columbia Convention and Visitors Bureau says they have not communicated with Atkins about his initiative but their goal is to market Columbia as a destination for travelers. For the past couple of days, the Visitors Bureau has seen an overflow of Georgia Bulldog fans. Communications manager, Mary McConachie, says she anticipates roughly 30,000 out of town guests for the sold out game.
The Visitors Bureau prepared for the the overflow of guest by surveying every hotel on the availability of rooms. This weekend all hotels are completely occupied.
"Fans have been using the Visitors Center's resources to navigate a football weekend in Tiger Town. People have been taking advantage of that since fans have arrived, so it's just been kicked up a notch from a typical football Friday," McConachie said.
Atkins says the initiative received positive feedback and hopes it will encourage travelers to come back to Columbia as a getaway destination.

WFA 2/e eBooks
The information I have from the publisher at this time is that it takes about 1-2 months to produce the ebook version of a book, and multiple ebook versions are produced (Kindle, Safari, etc.). I've been told that while a PDF version will not be produced for sale, that there will be a version produced by Ingram (??) that will be available to be read on a computer, and I'm also told that this reader, like Adobe Reader, allows the ebook to be searched. Other than that, I have nothing...I don't even know where to download the reader just to take a look at it. Nor do I know when the ebook will be available in any version, nor how much it will cost.
That's all I have. Pretty amazing, eh? A large publishing firm like Elsevier, and an author such as myself is having trouble getting basic information.
So, all I can say is sorry (although I'm not sure why I'm the one saying that...), and if you really want to let someone know how you feel about this, email my editor...she's graciously consented to accepting your emails. Or stop by the Syngress table at the SANS Forensic Summit and let her know.

That poor woman is going to have a lot of angry geeks chasing after her ;)
- H. Carvey said...
Hey, she offered.
Besides, there has to be some way to get the word to the publisher that maybe things could be done better. After all, this doesn't just apply to WFA 2/e...it applies to Eoghan's "Malware Analysis", and other titles as well...
- Unknown said...
don't know why they won't tell you, unless they are changing vendors. The book reader that Elsevier has been using for Syngress books since they acquired them (with the exception of the ones they made in PDF) is VitalSource at http://www.vitalsource.com/ .
it's not bad, but the problem is have with all of the DRM-ed book readers like VitalSource (elsevier), Zinio (magazines), Kindle, etc is -- what happens when the reader company goes out of business because their business model assumes that they will expand to x additional publishers and it doesn't happen ? i'm thinking about purchasing enough equipment to move all of my own stuff into e-book format, but the fact that i have to cut the binding out to get a decent scan makes it iffy.
i've bought a lot of ebooks as password protected PDF files (password is my email address, although syngress used a weak static password that was the same for all books, all buyers) and it is the format i prefer. even if a pirate removes the password, it is relatively easy to embed an additional digital watermark inside that identifies who the pirate is.
(edit as you see fit)
- Angelina Ward said...
Hi all, Harlan's editor here. I want to clarify the eBook situation. WFA 2/e WILL be available in eBook form in these formats and more: Kindle, Safari, VitalSource, ePub, eReader, and all other formats necessary for electronic devices. Harlan is right in the fact that we do not produce eBooks in PDF format anymore, they are in a proprietary format: VitalSource by Ingram. This means you need to download their reader when purchasing the ebook. This is a new process for Elsevier, but the process we currently have for selling our own eBooks. Remember, it will be available in all other 3rd party formats as well. Please do not hesitate to contact me with more questions. I'd be happy to answer: a.ward at elsevier dot com
- Phil Rodokanakis said...
This is better than nothing, but the idea that we have to download and install another reader is frustrating. The last thing I want to do is install a reader that will only be used by one application.
Can you all imagine of a world where we need to have half-a-dozen or more word processors installed on our systems just to read a document? PDF is a standard that can be opened on every PC. We need this in PDF format, not some exotic niche platform that very few use.
Best regards, Phil
Kindle edition? Perfection! Nice work Angelina.
- Kush Wadhwa said...
There are lot of geeks who love to read the e-books and as said earlier by Phil, PDF is a standard format which can be viewed by any one. Purchasing an e-book reader for one book does not make sense. From the digital forensic community, I request you to please release the book in PDF format, so that every one can read the book.
Also if not, then please let me know how to get this book(hard copy)in India.
- H. Carvey said...
@Kush - posting here isn't going to make a huge difference...that's why I said you should email the editor.

Steps to Guide Your Decisions
You need to develop certain principles that work for you in negotiating, then follow them nearly every time. Please notice the word nearly, as I hardly do anything every single time. Negotiating is an art, with a little science that is mostly probability, so you need to know when to apply a principle, and when to shelve it. If you do not follow your standard principles, be aware of that decision and make sure you have a valid reason for changing from the standards that normally guide you to success. Violating a principle normally comes back to haunt you.
In the book Create A Great Deal, I have 19 principles to follow that will make your decisions on how to negotiate easy. Here are four principles:
1. Your Clients' Interests Are Paramount
Your clients' interests come way in front of yours. Do not let your client miss buying the home of their dreams just because you want to do some fancy negotiating. If they think it is worth the price, be sure you give them your advice, but if they want to proceed, it is their life. When you are giving them advice that they do not follow, be sure to document it in writing. But, do not document it with something that sounds like a lawyer, do it with something that sounds like you are writing to a relative asking them to reconsider.
In the same manner, if it is going to take forever to negotiate a deal on the property they love, your obligation is to proceed and take the time required to get the best deal. The best way to lose a client, and all their referrals, is to let them feel that you put your interest in making a quick deal in front of their interest in getting a good deal on the home they want. So, do not rush the process.
Another instance where your client's judgment is paramount is the success of the negotiations. You might think it went extremely well, but if the client is not happy, there goes your repeat and referral business. If you think you did not do well, but the client is thrilled, your business grows.
This is not to say that you always defer to your client's judgment. They are relying on you for professional counseling. If they want to overprice their home when they try to sell, it is not in their best interest, so you have to do everything you can to prevent it. See also Rule 12: Don't Let Your Clients Do Something Really Stupid.
The corollary to this rule is that you are negotiating your client's property, it is not your own. You advise; they decide. In this capacity, you should not take on the tone or position of the client when you talk to the other agent. By being a professional counselor, you can avoid emotional responses to the other agent when their offer is "less than wonderful." Any offer is an opportunity to make a deal and must be presented. You do not have to be gleeful about it, so you do not give your counterpart the wrong impression. But, being insulting hurts the process.
2. Let the Other Side Feel that They Won
My mother, Lorna, enjoyed arguing and wanted to end the process feeling that she was right. It was a great education, because I learned very early that if I got the results that I wanted, it was not important for me to force the other person to feel that they lost. In fact, if I let my counterparts feel that they won, it was easier to get the results that I wanted, so they felt a "win" while I got a "Win".
Forcing your counterpart to recognize that you are victorious is counter productive. If they feel that they won, they will do everything possible to close the sale smoothly. If they feel that they lost, they will do everything possible to have a victory before the sale closes.
This idea does not mean that you want your client to feel that they lost. Quite the opposite! You want your client to realize the great results they got in the final agreement. You just do not want to rub your counterpart's nose in the great results you got.
This concept is particularly useful when you are close to making a deal, and your counterparts fancy themselves to be great negotiators. Find something you can give them as a victory, no matter how small, so they can feel they won, especially if they need to show that victory to look good to their spouse. You do not need to be right; you need to get the deal done.
3. Don't Push: Present Choices
I have yet to meet anyone who says they like a pushy salesman. We help people make decisions. I learned from Joe Stumpf of By Referral Only to act like a counselor when I am working with my clients. The best way to act like a counselor is to present the various choices to a client, and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each. Your clients know their life better than you ever will, so if they get complete, accurate information, they will make the right choice.
This principle is particularly appropriate for listing presentations. You discuss with the potential sellers that they can (1) Decide not to sell (2) Go For Sale By Owner (3) Use a discount firm or (4) Use my Team. Present all the advantages and disadvantages of each choice, and if you are the right choice, they will come to it. The first advantage of this technique is that you get clients who really support the decision they made. The second advantage is that you avoid clients who are not right for you. There are some listings that you do not want.
4. Present With Confidence and Conviction
According to President Lyndon Johnson, "Nothing convinces like conviction." If you believe in your position, exude conviction.
Everyone has had an agent present an offer saying, "I know it is low, but see if you can get us a counter offer." Don't do that.
In law school, they teach the future lawyers that 10% of the effect is the words you say, and 90% is how you say it. Be confident in what you are presenting. Don't say this is your initial offer, that you want to run it up the flag pole, or that this offer is a good start. Each one of those phrases tells your counterpart that you are not serious about this offer. Present the offer as being a good offer.
Do not over-present the offer, however. Do not tell the other agent that you have a great offer for them when it stinks. You will lose credibility. You can always be glad that your client decided to make an offer on the property, and express that happiness. If you get a negative reaction from your counterpart, just deflect it by saying the people she should be upset with are all the other agents who have shown the property and not been good enough to bring an offer.
A true believer is much more persuasive than a hired gun. As an attorney, I helped a Realtor friend who was falsely accused of an ethics violation involving displaying properties on the Internet. I have a conviction about the proper use of the Internet as a wonderful tool for Realtors and consumers, so I am able to present that issue in a convincing manner. The hearing was going fairly well. I noticed a major reaction from the members of the panel when I told them I was not being paid for my work that day because I had done all my research, driven for hours and appeared at the hearing as a matter of protecting a principle that I believed in. My friend received the written ruling that the panel found in her favor the next day, which means they had to rule immediately for us with no reservations in order to have gotten the results in the mail so quickly. I know it was the right result, which may have occurred without that statement, but the conviction helped persuade the panel.
Do You Want Your Career Guided by Principles?

You – Tube has become the 2nd biggest search
engine after Google, Google now incorporates video directly into its search results and websites that don't contain video are beginning to look positively archaic.
But if that game doesn't include a mini-game where I get to dance like the
Predator does in the video above, I don't want it.
In order to answer these questions, anyone can simply sign up for and write a review.

text: If you are reading this post, I hope it is because the Home page made you think about your own personal situation and where you stand in terms of being prepared for the unexpected. I am not necessarily referring to disaster preparedness, but instead to what someone will find if they suddenly have to step in and take over for you. It can be a scary thought. Will it be clear even who the authorities should contact? Will that person have authority to act for you financially and make health care decisions for you if you are no longer capable? I hope you see that there is planning to be done now. Thomas Jefferson was so right about not putting things off until tomorrow. If you need some help along the way, I hope you will find this website useful.

Designated Driver
THE COST / For a properly insured designated driver expect to pay around $50 per hour with a five hour minimum.
THE GOOD / The best combination of flexibility, personal attention and value.
THE BAD / You will need to have a vehicle. There are daily minimums so you'll want to be able to start your day early enough to make use of your designated driver.
We wouldn't have built our business around this model if we didn't think it was the absolute best option for transportation in wine country. You get to enjoy the comfort and savings of the vehicle you already have while getting the benefit of an experienced guide to help you plan your day. A good designated driver will make sure you get the wines and experiences you're looking for while attending to all of your needs. Also, an experienced designated driver will be able to get you off the beaten path and into wineries that shield themselves from the throngs of people that travel the main roads. At the end of your tour you won't have to scour the car for sunglasses, phone cords or any other personal belongings since the car is yours. Book your designated driver online and start planning your trip to wine country.

Don't put that Mummers strut to sleep after New Year's Day. The Mummers — known for strutting down Broad Street — once again added Main Street to the mix.
The Mummers marched down Main Street in Manayunk on Saturday as a late Mardi Gras celebration.
Mummers joined Manayunk Development Corporation officials and U.S. Congressman Bob Brady (D-Pa. 1st District) to announce plans for this year's parade at a Thursday afternoon news conference.
Breaking news and the stories that matter to your neighborhood.
After weather pushed back last year's first-annual Manayunk strut, the Mummers enjoyed warm and sunny weather Saturday for this year's event.
Organizers kept the February edition of the parade — dubbed the "Mummers Mardi Gras Parade in Manayunk" — a family-friendly affair by keeping alcohol off Main Street and instead in the bars. The string bands even used some local haunts as temporary houses once the parade wrapped up.
The parade brought some extra business to Main Street bars and restaurants.
The parade route ran from Green Lane to Lock Street — about 1 mile — and exclusively featured string bands playing the length of Main Street.

Rockport Mastiffs, Breeding Only The Best Of The Best
"It is essential to use a quality stud dog when breeding"
Please be advised that Rockport Mastiffs only breed our stud dogs to bitches with genetic merit.
Rockport's Made Man
Our boy, Tony, is pictured above at 2.5 years old. He is a very big typey boy. He's is extremely athletic and is a very friendly boy. He is primarily an all Old English Pedigree and has left his stamp on his progeny.
"Rockport's Lord Tyson"
Tyson is pictured above at 2.5 years old. He is 32 inches at the wither and weighs 256 lbs. He has a very easy going temperment and is still very much the playful as he is begining to mature. He has an excellent pedigree that goes back to the old European bloodlines.
Pictured below are Tyson's parents. Greiner Hall Falcon and Rockport's Chasing Falcon.
Rockport's Northern Star
Rockport's Northern Star AKA Bumpy, has it all. He is a huge typey boy with an extremely large head and a beautiful black mask. He has very large bone size and all these attributes gives him an outstanding presence. Bumpy is a great example of good Old English Mastiff bloodlines.
He has sired litters where his offspring have been better than himself. This is a true example of an outstanding stud dog trait. Bumpy is another example of the quality and looks that can be acheived with good breeding.
Rockport's North Wind, AKA Angus, is a big brindle boy who has great potential as a contributing genetic factor in the preservation of the Old English Mastiff look from the UK. Angus is 240 lbs. at 2 years old and still growing. His father, Rockport's Lord Tyson is 266 lbs., and his Grandfather, Sargent Schultz, is 286 lbs. Our magnificent stud dogs are from the late Topsey Seeger's UK Big Boy, Muffin 260 lbs.. You can easily see the size, the looks, and the typey English head in the offspring of this beautiful Rockport stud line.
Rockport's Sargent Schultz
AKA Schultz
Pictured above is one of Spike's puppies at 3 years old
He is owned and loved by Scott and Janis of Port Alberni, Canada
Sargent Schultz is a huge dog with terrific bone, every bit a mastiff!! He is presently 3 years old, 33 inches at the withers and weighs 264 lbs. Schultz has a big broad English head, and a good mask combined with excellent wrinkle .His chest is huge with well sprung ribs. He is very athletic and his movement is powerful and superb. With all these wonderful traits, Schultz's greatest asset by far is ,what he has between his ears. We believe, that when Schultz finishes maturing, he will be recognized as one of the true ambassadors of our Noble Breed.

Spike is pictured above at 3 years old, 33" at the withers and weighing 238 lbs, not yet fully grown. He is the result of 6 generations of selective line breeding, going back to some of the most famous Mastiffs of all time. His breeding is the true Old English Lines, and is a Double Jedadiah Grandson. He is very tightly line bred on Medicine Man, England, who appears in his pedigree 6 times. Medicine Man, was considered by many, to be the greatest Mastiff of all time.
Spike has a beautiful English head, an excellent top line, a perfect scissor bite and very tight cat feet. Spike is a proven stud dog, who continues to produce exceptional offspring.

If you remember Walter Scott's Quentin Durward, in that novel the French king had the Scotts guard him. This Scottish Guard has been augmented by the French archers who gradually became numerically superior to the Scotts and then completely replaced them. By the time of Louis XIV there was only some command vocabulary left traceable back to Scotland. The best elements from the line units were selected to serve in that guard. These were mostly noblemen, for the lowest-ranking guardsman was equivalent to a lieutenant.
These fifteen hundred guardsmen guarded Chateau Versailles at night; twenty out of them made the cuffguard, i.e. the bodyguard of the king, and as such participated in the most important ceremonies, including the burial of the king. In Versailles their barracks were located at the corner of Orangerie and Royal avenues. Their uniform colors were blue, red and white, but in spite of their uniform colors there were no revolutionaries among the King's gardsmen; on the contrary, a good number of them had joined the counter-revolutionary movement.

Dell Dude collared in marijuana bust
Career goes up in smoke
Ben Curtis, the 22-year actor who plays Steven, the Dell Guy in the TV ads, was arrested in New York at the weekend for marijuana possession. How long before the Winona Defence is wheeled into gear: I was only researching a part, your honour.
The Dell Guy, is unknown to most people in the UK, except for saddo business-types who watch CNN in hotels.
The Dell Guy character as portrayed on the ads surely smokes pot and, from time to time, crack. He's a humorous young man who promotes Dell computers on the television. But maybe for not much longer: let's see how grown-up Dell is about this.
We are indebted to The Smoking Gun for alerting us to Mr. Curtis' predicament. ®

Our Home Owners Say
"I have a very large roof and major leaks and They did and exceptionally good job plus when they were done it was clean up so good you could tell they work here. I would recommend them to everybody."
Dave called that same morning and had his crew out by the end of the working day to replace shingles and complete the maintenance work. . We appreciate the quick response as well as honest assessment of the roof. We will be using All Weather for all our future roofing needs.
They came out promptly and gave a very thorough estimate. The whole job was done in one day by their large crew. The job was tailored to my house situation (low pitch roof so they didn't use ridge vents and added an extra band of water/ice shield all around). The warranty on their labor was also outstanding (25 yrs.) and the roofing shingles were top quality. They came back out after chimney repair to make sure the roof wasn't damaged and to do the final caulking of vents and chimney. They were easy to contact when I had questions.

We are VOYCE – Whakarongo Mai, which stands for Voice of the Young and Care Experienced – Listen to me. The multi-coloured sound waves in our logo visually represent the individual and collective voices of children in care, with the semi-circle shape symbolising connection and community. We believe children and young people in care need to be heard and their voices kept at the centre of all the decisions made about them. VOYCE – Whakarongo Mai is a voice from children and young people in care, not an adult voice for them.
We are a community that connects children and young people who have been or are in care. We promote their individual and collective voice so that they can influence the care system to meet their needs and realise their aspirations. Our whakapapa reflects a strong and unique partnership between young people, government, the philanthropic and non-government sectors. We believe that it is only in working together that the vision of building a community of positive, confident and capable care experienced young people will be realised.
VOYCE – Whakarongo Mai started small but are pushing for big outcomes that reflect the voice of those in the care system. In addition to an Auckland Head Office, VOYCE – Whakarongo Mai now has offices in Whangarei, Tauranga, Wellington and Christchurch, with satellite offices in Hastings and Dunedin.
With your help and support we will continue to be ardent advocates for children in care, ensuring their voices are heard by government and the care system. We will also continue to actively develop and talk to children in care about what they need, and engage with partners and government in order to positively move things forward.
Connect children and young people in care with advocates and trusted adults to help you have your say
Support you to share your stories in your words, when key decisions are made which affect you
Work alongside Iwi and Māori organisations as well as other groups in the community, who build a support network around children and young people in care
VOYCE organises connection events for you to meet, have fun and share ideas with other children and young people in care
We're constantly developing a care-experienced support community, to build an even stronger voice to the system
We have established a youth council of care experienced young people who promote the voice of care experience on the big issues affecting you
RANGATIRATANGA – Build leadership among children and young people in care.
TUHONO – Connect children and young people in care with each other and with their significant others.
WHAKATAIRANGA – Promote the collective voice of children and young people in care.
WHAKAMANA – Advocate with children and young people in care.
WHAI PUKENGA – Help equip children and young people in care for their future.
Children's voices need to be kept at the centre of all the decisions made about them.
VOYCE – Whakarongo Mai believes that children and young people in care need to be heard, and all decisions made about them should keep their voices at the centre. A vital part of this is setting up and having an operational VOYCE National Youth Council (VYNC). These VNYC members are care experienced youth and young adults with enormous amounts of knowledge and passion for improving the care system for others.
Largely unsung experts of the care system, these care experienced youth have profound ideas, experiences and solutions to offer. Their natural leadership in this space needs to be enhanced with appropriate training and support in order to help convert contributions into successful advocacy outcomes. VOYCE provides and offers continual leadership advancement to these members throughout their two-year tenure on the VNYC.
Being in care can be challenging from time to time. If you need help, don't hesitate to reach out.
Get involved with VOYCE – Whakarongo Mai
We would like to recognise all the children and young people who helped create the foundation for VOYCE – Whakarongo Mai to be established.
Without the courageous sharing of your experiences and your honesty and generosity we wouldn't be here today! Nga mihi nui.
