A/N: So, this is the first chapter of my brand new story. Thanks to Maggiemay14 for believing that I could pull of a more sarcastic, smut filled story, which is exactly what I am aiming for.
If you don't like constant cursing, lots of sex and possible group sex (I'm not sure yet) then this story is probably not for you. It will have my usual romance, tension, drama etc… but there will probably be more angst and a hell of a lot more sex.
I don't own twilight, I do own a lot of coloring books.
"Fuck," I muttered to myself as I pulled on my boy shorts and stalked out of my room. Sure it was nearing one in the afternoon, but who in the right mind was knocking on my door on my only day off in over two weeks. I had been out of the shower for a total of five minutes when the knocking started, and as I called out towards the hallway, my cries were clearly not heard, but there was no way I was going out there in a towel, even if it was Alice.
"Alice, if you forgot you're damned keys again, I will seriously beat you like a red headed step child," I said with a grin as I pulled down my white t-shirt and whipped open the door as my eyes slowly took in the man standing there.
"I'm looking for Alice?" he said strongly as my eyes couldn't remove themselves from his face. He had a strong jaw line and deep green eyes that were positively gorgeous. My eyes raked down his body and I noticed an intricate arm band tattoo peeking out on his forearm from under the blue of his tight t-shirt. "Um… Is Alice here?" asked green eyes as I finally woke from my reverie. Of course he was looking for Alice, I thought to myself grimly.
"No. she's at work. Call or something if you need to talk to her," I said as I turned around quickly and went to close the door behind me. His foot was suddenly in between the door and the jamb and he pushed it open lightly while I stared at him in utter disbelief.
"She said I could come over at one to see the apartment."
Oh hell no.
I knew we were in desperate need of a roommate since Rosalie had left us high and dry, moving in with her boyfriend Emmett, but I draw the line at some hot guy moving in with us. I had enough issues getting laid; I didn't need a constant reminder of it staring me in the face. Although, the things I could imagine me doing to his face suddenly flashed through my mind.
"Are you okay?" he asked as I stepped back tentatively and he walked into the apartment. I was certain I was now blushing five different shades of red, so I brought out snarky bitchy Bella, in an effort to scare this guy away.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I have a meeting with my parole officer soon, so can we step this up?" I asked in frustration as I jumped up on the kitchen island and he began to walk around the apartment. He raised his eye brow in curiosity but never responded to my words. "The free bedroom is down the hall on the left. There's a bathroom directly across from it."
"I'm Edward," he called out as he wandered into the bathroom and I simply huffed in frustration. I couldn't handle a guy living here, not that our previous interviewees had been any better. The first had been a woman in her mid thirties who was constantly quizzing us about cats. She apparently had a plethora of them that she wanted to bring with her and even though Alice and I technically had nothing against them, she was creepy as hell and we lied that there was a no pet policy in the building.
Our second choice had been a mortician. Definite no. Thirdly, we had a lovely twenty something year old woman who claimed she was stripping her way through medical school, although I figured she was stripping her way through medical appointments. Her breasts were the size of our couch, so Alice kindly informed her that the room was no longer available as we spent the next half an hour on the floor laughing our asses off at her. No one ever said Alice and I were nice.
"How's the neighborhood?" he asked casually as he strolled into the bedroom now and began to check everything out. The spare room had enough furniture for someone who was starting with nothing. There was a double bed, some night stands, a dresser and even a small desk. Although I never had any idea what Rosalie was doing with the desk, she probably used it as yet another surface to fuck Emmett on. If there was one thing I wasn't going to miss about her moving out, it was their screaming during sex.
"Oh, it's just peachy. Drug deals on the corner; a few random hookers if you look close enough. My favorite is the one in the tight jean shorts and the ripped shirt that says 'Classy Lassy' and there was a drive by a few days ago," I said with a quiet giggle. Our neighborhood was so fucking quiet it was like we lived in a cemetery; we hadn't even heard a single police car in the past three months. Alice had picked it out when we first rented the place two years ago, and she had done a thorough job in her selection. It had the lowest crime rate in the city and I don't think there was even a scratch of graffiti on any walls.
"Sounds great. It looks safe for my bike," he added as he strolled in the kitchen and opened the fridge like he owned the place. As he bent forward, I couldn't help but notice his defined muscles behind his tight shirt, or the way his jeans cupped his ass perfectly. Damn it. I wiped the drool from my mouth and came back to my senses.
"I'm sure there's a fence you can chain your ten speed to around here somewhere," I said with a nervous laugh, trying to sound funny.
"It's a Ducati and you don't chain it to anything," he replied, clearly thinking I was a fucking moron or something. The moment the word 'Ducati' slipped from his mouth, I was tempted to jump from the counter and peer out the window to see what he had. His tattoo and motorcycle all scream 'bad boy' but his behavior around me seemed different somehow, refined or something. "What's down there?" Edward asked as he pointed down the hallway to where mine and Alice's rooms were.
"That's the additional bedrooms. You don't need to concern yourself with those," I said calmly.
"Oh, that's a shame," he said as winked at me and sat down on one of our dining room chairs, looking right at me. "So… When is Alice supposed to be home?"
"I don't know. Do I look like her fucking assistant?" I snapped as he glared at me through narrowed eyes. "Why in the hell would you want to live with two girls anyways?"
"Simple. I need a place to stay and I want it furnished. I don't care if I am living with girls, guys or a traveling band of circus freaks. I have the three months rent she's asking for, in fact, I can offer more if it helps," he said calmly, clearly not disturbed by my angry bitch façade.
"You do have a job right?" I asked in frustration as I felt his eyes piercing mine. "We're not going to come home one day and find a grow-op in your bathroom will we?"
"Not likely. I bartend down at a place called 'Pure' down on Lincoln, and I don't think I'm a grow op kind of guy. I might be a social toker, but definitely not interested in growing the shit myself, that takes way too much effort," laughed Edward as I glared at him and tried to figure out if I had ever run into him at Pure before. Alice had taken me down there on several occasions to get completely wasted and potentially hook up, but we always stumbled home alone after giving out our old phone number to random assholes.
"Do you really think you can afford this place on a bartender's salary?" I snipped as his gaze penetrated mine as though he was trying to fuck me with his eyes. Damn it.
"I make great tips. The ladies are always generous with their money when I dazzle them with my smile, wit and other assets," said Edward coolly as he smiled at me crookedly and I honestly felt my panties dampen. Edward stood only moments later and handed me a slip of paper with his name and number on it. "Let her know I was here, give her my number… or keep it for you," he said with a grin as I involuntarily licked my lips and shuddered lightly as he moved closer to me. "I like the place. Have Alice call me."
Edward strolled from the apartment and closed the door tightly behind him as I threw my fist up against the door in frustration and locked it behind me. If I hadn't just showered minutes before he arrived, I would be climbing back into that shower with my detachable showerhead for a few moments of Bella time. I ran into my bedroom and grabbed my cell phone to call Alice, but as I expected, I got her voicemail.
"Mary Alice Brandon, you call me the minute you get this message. There is no way we are sharing our apartment with a guy, no matter how fucking hot he is and no matter how much we could use the cash right now," I sighed as I shut the phone and walked back into the living room, collapsing on the couch as I tried to think of anything but Edward's ass as he bent over in front of our refrigerator. God it looked so fucking delicious, I thought to myself as I clenched my eyes, closing them tightly and trying to regulate my breathing.
I grabbed the remote for the stereo and quickly turned on some Nine Inch Nails to drown out my thoughts and waited patiently for Alice to either call me back or show up at the apartment, at which time I will promptly give her a verbal beat down.
The apartment was perfect. It was a stone's throw away from the club, so I would save money on gas and be able to walk home. This neighborhood couldn't be safer if there were armed guards around at all times and my bike would definitely be safe. The only issue would be the roommate I met, whose name I hadn't even bothered to get. She was sassy, fiery and totally unbelievably hot. Her long brown hair dripped down the back of her white t-shirt, which bared just enough of her midriff to make me want to see more. It didn't help that she was wearing a tight pair of boy shorts when she answered the door, clearly not expecting me.
When I wandered down the stairs and back towards my bike, I had half a mind to go back upstairs and call her a fucking ice princess, because that was exactly the way she treated me, like complete shit. My downfall was that no matter how bad she treated me, I wanted her nonetheless. I could picture driving her somewhere secluded on my bike and draping her luscious naked body over the side of it as I drilled my cock into her. Even now, recalling her sarcastic words and piercing glances, I felt myself grow hard again.
I had just slipped my helmet on after straddling my bike, when a rough looking Honda Accord pulled into the space beside me and a flustered woman got out, her black spiky hair twisted in every possible direction. She was just as sexy as the chick upstairs had been, but I didn't want her with the intensity that I wanted that brunette vixen two floors up.
"No chance your Edward huh?" she called to me as she grabbed a portfolio, which was overloaded with papers, from the backseat of her rusty old car. How that piece of shit was still deemed road worthy was beyond me.
"Yeah, I'm guessing your Alice?" I asked in reply as I pulled the helmet back off and ran my fingers through my hair tensely. She stopped for a moment as she stared at me intently and then rested the portfolio on the hood of her grey beast.
"Have you been up to the apartment yet? I know I'm late, but I had an emergency at work and was delayed. I am so sorry," she said sweetly as she dropped a few papers and I leaned down to help her pick them up. Her deep eyes were so sad, I found myself instantly drawn her to, wanting to protect her.
"Yeah, you're lovely roommate gave me a tour," I said sourly as she caught my gaze and laughed simply, almost like the sound of bells.
"Bella can be a bit of a hard ass when you first meet her, but inside she's all lovable goo," said Alice as she took a deep breath and then continued. "Are you interested in the place or not?"
"Honestly, it's perfect. I just don't know why you two would want to live with me?" I said honestly as she tugged at the hem of her jacket and looked back at me, with more sadness than before, if that was at all possible.
"Let's just say, we could use a man's touch around the apartment," she said timidly. "If you want it, it's yours. It's four hundred and fifty a month and that includes all utilities. You chip in for food, the cleaning and cooking. Any questions?" she asked nervously as she suddenly turned into a hard ass.
"What about conjugal visits?" I asked with a laugh as she glared at me.
"It's would be your home Edward, so do as you would in the comfort of your own home. Bella and I generally don't bring guests home though," she said reluctantly as I tried to read the expression on her face. She looked tormented about something and I hoped it was only about her job that seemed to bog her down.
"Yeah, I'll take it. When can I move in?"
"Tomorrow morning. Bella and I will both be at work. I'll leave a key with the manager, Seth." I nodded at Alice, and suddenly felt the weight of the world lift off my shoulders. I could finally get my ass off of Jasper's couch and it definitely wouldn't suck to live with two hot chicks, especially if Bella the temptress walked around in those boy shorts and wet shirts again. At least I had my own bathroom to jerk off in regularly, since I doubted I would be bringing any women back to my new place. I liked the sound of that, my new place.
I handed Alice the envelope with the first three months rent and smiled at her pleasantly before slipping my helmet back on and pulling out of the parking lot, smirking like I had just won the lottery.
My head was swimming with all the possibilities that lay ahead for me now that I finally had a place to hang my hat, metaphorically speaking of course. As I stumbled up the stairs to Jasper's bachelor pad, I was practically singing I was so happy. I threw my keys on the counter and grabbed a beer from the fridge as I threw myself on one of the oversized bean bag chairs Jasper considered furniture.
Jazz wandered out from the bathroom moments later, with a beat up copy of Maxim that he tossed on the counter beside my keys. I shuddered to think what he had been doing in there while I was gone. "You look like you just got the world's best blow job man, spill it."
"I'm moving out," I said with a wide, shit eating grin as Jasper punched me on the shoulder, a little too hard.
"It's about fucking time. I love you like a brother from another mother, but I would like to be able to sit on my couch one day," he said with a laugh as I groaned at the loose definition of couch. It was the same futon he bought when he moved away to college and he had graduated two years ago. It was nasty to say the least.
"Want to hear the best part?" I asked as I took a huge swig of my beer and watched as he lit a joint, taking a huge drag and passing over to me.
"You're going to let me move in with you since my place should be fucking condemned?" laughed Jasper as I let out a deep breath and smiled.
"Not bloody likely. I'm living with two hot chicks'. I will admit, the brunette seems a little cold but the things her tight little body could do to me would probably bring me to my knees. The other chick, cute as a button, but definitely not as hard core as the brunette. Bella." Even now as I spoke about her to Jasper, I wanted nothing more than to let her ride me until we both came in a blinding light of ecstasy.
"You can't fuck your roommates' man, that goes against like… some sort of renters' code," said Jasper with a laugh as he took another drag of the blunt and grinned at me. "Now, me on the other hand, since I don't live with these fine ladies, should definitely meet them and fuck their brains out."
"Again man, not bloody likely. Even, I, no matter how much I might want it, will be on my best behavior. I have to admit, there was something about the Alice chick that made me a bit concerned. It seemed she wanted a male roommate and Bella didn't," I admitted to Jasper reluctantly. I threw my head back against the bean bag chair and tried not to worry about it, they had their reasons for their actions and I was sure that after living with them for a few months, things would fall into place.
My only problem was going to be not fucking the sassy minx.
I was seriously considering running down to a pawn shop on the shitty side of town to buy a gun. They wouldn't care if I didn't have a drivers license or any suitable I.D. to prove my identity, would they?
"Alice, we agreed that we would both decide on the new roommate," I said angrily when she showed up in the apartment a mere five minutes after Edward had left.
"Both of us did agree. Me and Edward agreed," she said with a laugh as I grabbed an apple from the counter and tossed it at her head, missing her narrowly and knocking her portfolio out of her hands. I felt remorseful and went over to help her pick up her papers, which she would no doubt bitch about later for not being in the proper order.
"That's not funny Alice. I really don't want to live with this guy," I stated firmly as Alice laid her portfolio down on the coffee table and came over to me, grasping my shoulders firmly in her small yet freakishly powerful hands.
"Too bad. Deal with your issues Bella. Edward already paid, he's agreed to follow our 'no conjugal visits' rule and he seems sweet," replied Alice as she let go of me and bounced into the kitchen to get herself a wine cooler from the fridge. I seriously think Alice was the only person who still liked 'Bartles & Jaymes'. "So, why don't you want him to move in Bella?"
"He's crass, sarcastic, drives a motorcycle, probably never showers or does laundry, should I go on?" I asked lamely, knowing full well my reasons were shit.
"He sounds like you with a motorcycle," laughed Alice as I glared at her. "Listen, it's safe to have a guy around and Edward looks like he could beat the shit out of most guys, James included. So how about we just let him move in and see how things go. If you still can't stand him after thirty days, I'll ask him to leave… okay?"
I nodded my head in agreement as Alice started to walk towards her bedroom."He's also super fucking hot Bella. What's wrong with a little eye candy?" I hung my head in shame the moment Alice was out of sight. She was right, he was so damned gorgeous I had no idea how I could be expected to keep my fricking hands or mouth off of him. Here's hoping he has some hideous habit like biting his toenails, so that Alice can kick him out in a month.

The 2010 Ryder Cup
The Ryder Cup is a biennial golf competition between teams from Europe and the United States. The competition is jointly administered by the PGA of America and Ryder Cup Europe LLP, and is contested every two years, the venue alternating between courses in the United States and Europe.
The 2010 Ryder Cup was hosted in the first week of October by The Celtic Manor Resort on a course, the Twenty Ten, specifically designed and built to host The Ryder Cup using the natural contours of the Usk Valley. Europe overcame The United States by the smallest of margins – 14½ to 13½.
For Gwent Police and the partner police forces we worked with, it was a policing operation on an unprecedented scale at that time, for an event which was likened to hosting three FA Cup finals back-to-back!
Officers had to co-ordinate crowds who were dispersed over a wide area in the Gwent and South Wales, Avon and Somerset and Dyfed Powys policing areas, as well as ensuring the transport links ran smoothly with such a huge volume of traffic. During the event, the atmosphere among the crowds was all positive with no issues with disorder. The event in Gwent was a huge success and was something that will remain an important part of the history of Gwent Police.
Ryder Cup Facts
- The Ryder Cup is a golf trophy, donated by Samuel Ryder, which is awarded biennially in an event called the "Ryder Cup Matches" between teams from Europe and the United States
- The Ryder cup is regarded as the third most-watched sporting event in the world
- The 38th Ryder Cup will be held in 2010 at The Celtic Manor Resort, Newport, from September 27th – 3rd October inclusive
- During the 6 days of the event there will be 45,000 spectators and up to 7,000 staff per day on-site

When it comes to the power efficiency of a 12 volt camping fridge – up until recent times, there has really only been two main factors that have been the core focus when talking about reduced power consumption. They are insulation (cabinet insulating quality) and compressor (motor).
Just like a traditional camping icebox – the better the insulation, the longer the ice holds (the colder your drinks stay for longer). A 12volt travel fridge is exactly the same – the better the insulation, the longer it stays cold and less your fridge compressor needs to run (less power you use).
The compressor (motor) pumps the cooling refrigerant through the fridge (cooling your food) and it cycles throughout the day (ie: just like your household fridge freezer, you will hear it start and stop periodically throughout the day/night). With the temperature settings or dial on the fridge, the colder we want the fridge (ie: to freeze) the longer the compressor runs each hour. The warmer we want the fridge (ie: to refrigerate) the less it runs per hour.
There is a difference in compressor sizes and this is often determined by the size of the insulated cabinet and – or – how well insulated the cabinet is.
There is a third major contributing factor that determines the efficiency of a 12volt travel fridge and that is it?s condenser system. A condenser is a bit like a radiator on a car – it gets rid of the heat out of the fridge – ie: food, insulation etc…. ?In short, the easier and quicker a condenser can get rid of heat, the less the fridge will run, the more power efficient it will be and this is why a good quality condenser is so important.
What I have decided to do is to show two entirely different condensers – why they are built the way they are, and the benefits of each.
A finned condenser is mainly used in applications where there is a very small area allocated (ie: built into the bottom corner of a fridge.). The fins on a finned condenser are very compressed close together due to the lack of space available – the idea is that many fins create as much surface area as possible and act like a heat sink? ie: designed to disperse as much heat away as possible.
More compact:?Being built into the bottom corner of a fridge?makes the overall external fridge size/dimensions quite compact. Great for vehicles with limited storage space.
More internal volume: The area above the compressor/condenser is not wasted? giving more internal cooling space.? ?
Noisy: Because this condenser system is built into the bottom corner of the fridge, these built in systems need all the help they can to get rid of heat. So a fan is mounted directly behind the condenser to suck air (air is sucked horizontally from one side of the fridge to the other,) through/past to help cool (ie: like a radiator in a car). These close fins create significant air/fan noise – what sounds quiet in a camping showroom floor can sound like a jet engine in the peace and quiet of the outback.?
They block and need constant maintenance: Because there are so many fins that are so close together – they tend to constantly block with a matted blanket of fluff. This blanket forms a shield and doesn?t allow the air to suck past the fins easily and therefore the fridge stops getting rid of the heat it needs to. In turn, the fridge runs harder – uses more power and wont cool as well. I have seen so many of these full of lint and a combination of talcum powder type bull dust. This also increases the noise.
Contains heat: A finned condenser is often surrounded by a steel plate that wraps around it (containing the condenser in one unit), this unfortunately helps to hold the heat in – especially when the compressor stops. In most cases the fan stops in unison with the compressor. (Please note: In some fridges, the fan will still operate after?the compressor stops – this will continue to use power.)
Wire on Tube Condensers are usually found on the end of fridges & this is mainly because of the extra area they require. The cooling tubes / wire is spread out & this makes it easier to disperse heat away.
Eradicates heat easily: This type of condenser system has a vent on top of it – as hot air rises naturally, it is always dispersing heat even when the compressor and condenser fan are turned off. This means the fridge runs less, is quieter and can be more power efficient because of it.
Super quiet: This type of condenser has the cooling tubes that are spread out over a large area. There is a larger cooling fan, which doesn?t need to run as hard?and that?s because it is mounted at the bottom of the fridge and pushes upwards (simply cycling air in a low volume and therefore impeccably quiet manner).
Minimal maintenance: Because the tubes are spread so far and over a large area, they are easy to clean if required and the chances of a fluff blanket forming are basically non-existent! The fridge runs more efficiently and there is less (virtually nothing) to worry about with maintenance from this perspective.
Uses less power: Because a wire on tube condenser gets rid of heat easier and quicker (than a boxed in finned condenser system) – it doesn?t need to run as hard / often and therefore is way more power efficient in most cases. The less power you use, the less solar energy you need (massive cost savings here) and this most definitely makes for a far more relaxing camping experience (less stressful).
Bigger Footprint: The negative for wire on tube condensers is the fact they take up more room as they sit on the entire end of the fridge – making the overall footprint of the fridge slightly bigger when being stored in your vehicle. (then again, do you use a bigger footprint – or – create more internal fridge area? I?m not sure which way to look at this, but I think the efficiency on battery power would far outweigh a slight bulkiness).
Last thoughts:
My desired outcome from writing this blog came about because of my distaste for poor quality produced travel fridges on the market – they are a dime a dozen at the moment and often the same fridge with a different colour or name (all telling us their fridge is better than the other!). The end loser is you? the customer. Being cheaper, these fridges definitely save us all a few dollars initially (I?m not against that by the way.) – but because of the inefficiency, we all end up spending more money on bigger battery systems or larger solar power to drive them. It would appear that is a short term gain for a long term loss!
If you?re looking to buy a fridge now or in the future, I would look at three core features:

jquery tree plugin
Available items
The developer of this repository has not created any items for sale yet. Need a bug fixed? Help with integration? A different license? Create a request here:
jsTree is jquery plugin, that provides interactive trees. It is absolutely free, open source and distributed under the MIT license.
jsTree is easily extendable, themable and configurable, it supports HTML & JSON data sources, AJAX & async callback loading.
jsTree functions properly in either box-model (content-box or border-box), can be loaded as an AMD module, and has a built in mobile theme for responsive design, that can easily be customized. It uses jQuery's event system, so binding callbacks on various events in the tree is familiar and easy.
You also get: * drag & drop support * keyboard navigation * inline edit, create and delete * tri-state checkboxes * fuzzy searching * customizable node types
Aside from this readme you can find a lot more info on jstree.com & the discussion group.
To get started you need 3 things in your page: 1. jQuery (anything above 1.9.1 will work) 2. A jstree theme (there is only one theme supplied by default) 3. The jstree source file
If you decide to host jstree yourself - the files are located in the
distfolder. You can safely ignore the
Now we are all set to create a tree, inline HTML is the easiest option (suitable for menus). All you need to do is select a node (using a jQuery selector) and invoke the
.jstree()function to let jstree know you want to render a tree inside the selected node.
$.jstree.create(element)can be used too.
- Root node
- Child node 1
- Child node 2
You can add a few options when rendering a node using a data-attribute (note the quotes):
Building trees from HTML is easy, but it is not very flexible, inline JS data is a better option:
Unlike the previous simple HTML example, this time the
.jstree()function accepts a config object.
For now it is important to note that jstree will try to parse any data you specify in the
core.datakey and use it to create a tree. As seen in the previous example, if this key is missing jstree will try to parse the inline HTML of the container.
The data you use must be in a specific format, each branch of the tree is represented by an object, which must at least have a
textkey. The
childrenkey can be used to add children to the branch, it should be an array of objects.
Keep in mind, you can use a simple string instead of an object if all you need is node with the given text, the above data can be written as:
[ { "text" : "Root node", "children" : [ "Child node 1", "Child node 2" ] } ]
There are other available options for each node, only set them if you need them like:
id- makes if possible to identify a node later (will also be used as a DOM ID of the
LInode). Make sure you do not repeat the same ID in a tree instance (that would defeat its purpose of being a unique identifier and may cause problems for jstree).
icon- a string which will be used for the node's icon - this can either be a path to a file, or a className (or list of classNames), which you can style in your CSS (font icons also work).
data- this can be anything you want - it is metadata you want attached to the node - you will be able to access and modify it any time later - it has no effect on the visuals of the node.
state- an object specifyng a few options about the node:
selected- if the node should be initially selected
opened- if the node should be initially opened
disabled- if the node should be disabled
checked- checkbox plugin specific - if the node should be checked (only used when
false, which you should only do if you really know what you are doing)
undetermined- checkbox plugin specific - if the node should be rendered in undetermined state (only used with lazy loading and when the node is not yet loaded, otherwise this state is automatically calculated).
type- types plugin specific - the type of the nodes (should be defined in the types config), if not set
"default"is assumed.
li_attr- object of values which will be used to add HTML attributes on the resulting
LIDOM node.
a_attr- object of values which will be used to add HTML attributes on the resulting
Here is a new demo with some of those properties set:
Building off of the previous example, let's see how to have jstree make AJAX requests for you.
The server response is:
json [{ "id":1,"text":"Root node","children":[ {"id":2,"text":"Child node 1"}, {"id":3,"text":"Child node 2"} ] }]
Instead of a JS array, you can set
core.datato a jQuery AJAX config. jsTree will hit that URL, and provided you return properly formatted JSON it will be displayed.
If you cannot provide proper JSON headers, set
The ids in the server response make it possible to identify nodes later (which we will see in the next few demos), but they are not required.
Lazy loading means nodes will be loaded when they are needed. Imagine you have a huge amount of nodes you want to show, but loading them with a single request is way too much traffic. Lazy loading makes it possible to load nodes on the fly - jstree will perform AJAX requests as the user browses the tree.
Here we take our previous example, and lazy load the "Child node 1" node.
The initial server response is:
json [{ "id":1,"text":"Root node","children":[ {"id":2,"text":"Child node 1","children":true}, {"id":3,"text":"Child node 2"} ] }]
Now to focus on what is different. First off the
"data"config option of the data object. If you check with jQuery, it is supposed to be a string or an object. But jstree makes it possible to set a function.
Each time jstree needs to make an AJAX call this function will be called and will receive a single parameter - the node that is being loaded. The return value of this function will be used as the actual
"data"of the AJAX call. To understand better open up the demo and see the requests go off in the console.
You will notice that the first request goes off to:
#is the special ID that the function receives when jstree needs to load the root nodes.
Now go ahead and open the root node - two children will be shown, but no request will be made - that is because we loaded those children along with the first request.
Onto the next difference - "Child node 1" appears closed - that is because in the data we supplied
trueas the
"children"property of this node (you can see it in the server response). This special value indicated to jstree, that it has to lazy load the "Child node 1" node.
Proceed and open this node - you will see a next request fire off to:
http://www.jstree.com/fiddle?lazy&id=2ID is set to
2because the node being loaded has an ID of
2, and we have configured jstree to send the node ID along with the AJAX request (the
The server response is:
json ["Child node 3","Child node 4"]
You can also set
"url"to a function and it works exactly as with
"data"- each time a request has to be made, jstree will invoke your function and the request will go off to whatever you return in this function. This is useful when dealing with URLs like: `http://example.com/getchildren/1`._
Sometimes you may not want jsTree to make AJAX calls for you - you might want to make them yourself, or use some other method of populating the tree. In that case you can use a callback function.
As you can see your function will receive two arguments - the node whose children need to be loaded and a callback function to call with the data once you have it. The data follows the same familiar JSON format and lazy loading works just as with AJAX (as you can see in the above example).
jstree provides a lot of events to let you know something happened with the tree. The events are the same regardless of how you populate the tree. Let's use the most basic event
changed- it fires when selection on the tree changes:
All jstree events fire in a special
".jstree"namespace - this is why we listen for
"changed.jstree". The handler itself receives one additional parameter - it will be populated with all you need to know about the event that happened. In this case
data.selectedis an array of selected node IDs (please note, that if you have not specified IDs they will be autogenerated).
Let's extend this a bit and log out the text of the node instead of the ID.
$('#container').on("changed.jstree", function (e, data) { console.log(data.instance.get_selected(true)[0].text); console.log(data.instance.get_node(data.selected[0]).text); });
The two rows above achieve exactly the same thing - get the text of the first selected node.
In the
dataargument object you will always get an
instancekey - that is a reference to the tree instance, so that you can easily invoke methods.
All available functions and events are documented in the API docs
We scratched the surface on interacting with the tree in the previous example. Let's move on to obtaining an instance and calling a method on this instance:
Select node 1
The above example shows how to obtain a reference to a jstree instance (again with a selector, but this time instead of a config, we pass a boolean
true), and call a couple of methods - the latter one is selecting a node by its ID.
Methods can also be invoked like this:
$('#container').jstree("select_node", "1");
All available functions and events are documented in the API docs
We already covered the config object in general (when we specified inline & AJAX data sources).
$("#tree").jstree({ /* config object goes here */ });
Each key in the config object corresponds to a plugin, and the value of that key is the configuration for that plugin. There are also two special keys
"plugins": *
"core"stores the core configuration options *
"plugins"is an array of plugin names (strings) you want active on the instance
When configuring you only need to set values that you want to be different from the defaults.
All config options and defaults are documented in the API docs
$("#tree").jstree({ "core" : { // core options go here "multiple" : false, // no multiselection "themes" : { "dots" : false // no connecting dots between dots } }, "plugins" : ["state"] // activate the state plugin on this instance });
We will cover all plugins further down.
Keep in mind by default all modifications to the structure are prevented - that means drag'n'drop, create, rename, delete will not work unless you enable them.
$("#tree").jstree({ "core" : { "check_callback" : true, // enable all modifications }, "plugins" : ["dnd","contextmenu"] });
"core.check_callback"can also be set to a function, that will be invoked every time a modification is about to happen (or when jstree needs to check if a modification is possible). If you return
truethe operation will be allowed, a value of
falsemeans it will not be allowed. The possible operation you can expect are
copy_node. The
moreparameter will contain various information provided by the plugin that is invoking the check. For example the DND plugin will provide an object containing information about the move or copy operation that is being checked - is it a multi tree operation, which node is currently hovered, where the insert arrow is pointing - before, after or inside, etc.
$("#tree").jstree({ "core" : { "check_callback" : function (operation, node, parent, position, more) { if(operation === "copy_node" || operation === "move_node") { if(parent.id === "#") { return false; // prevent moving a child above or below the root } }, return true; // allow everything else } }, "plugins" : ["dnd","contextmenu"] });
moreparameter you receive contains other information related to the check being performed.
For example:
copy_nodechecks will fire repeatedly while the user drags a node, if the check was triggered by the
morewill contain a
dndkey, which will be set to
true. You can check for
more.dndand only perform a certain action if
dndtriggered the check. If you only want to perform an operation when a node is really about to be dropped check for
jsTree comes with a few plugin bundled, but they will only modify your tree if you activate them using the
"plugins"config option. Here is a brief description of each plugin. You can read more on the available config options for each plugin in the API docs.
Renders a checkbox icon in front of each node, making multiselection easy. It also has a "tri-state" option, meaning a node with some of its children checked will get a "square" icon.
Keep in mind that if any sort of cascade is enabled, disabled nodes may be checked too (not by themselves, but for example when a parent of a disabled node is checked and selection is configured to cascade down).
$("#tree").jstree({ "plugins" : ["checkbox"] });
Makes it possible to right click nodes and shows a list of configurable actions in a menu.
$("#tree").jstree({ "core" : { "check_callback" : true }, // so that modifying operations work "plugins" : ["contextmenu"] });
Makes it possible to drag and drop tree nodes and rearrange the tree.
$("#tree").jstree({ "core" : { "check_callback" : true }, // so that operations work "plugins" : ["dnd"] });
Makes it possible to load multiple nodes in a single go (for a lazy loaded tree).
$("#tree").jstree({ "core" : { "data" : { .. AJAX config .. } }, "massload" : { "url" : "/some/path", "data" : function (nodes) { return { "ids" : nodes.join(",") }; } }, "plugins" : [ "massload", "state" ] });
Adds the possibility to search for items in the tree and show only matching nodes. It also has AJAX / callback hooks, so that search will work on lazy loaded trees too.Search
Automatically arranges all sibling nodes according to a comparison config option function, which defaults to alphabetical order.
$("#tree").jstree({ "plugins" : ["sort"] });
Saves all opened and selected nodes in the user's browser, so when returning to the same tree the previous state will be restored.
$("#tree").jstree({ // the key is important if you have multiple trees in the same domain "state" : { "key" : "state_demo" }, "plugins" : ["state"] });
Makes it possible to add a "type" for a node, which means to easily control nesting rules and icon for groups of nodes instead of individually. To set a node type add a type property to the node structure.
$("#tree").jstree({ "types" : { "default" : { "icon" : "glyphicon glyphicon-flash" }, "demo" : { "icon" : "glyphicon glyphicon-ok" } }, "plugins" : ["types"] });
Enforces that no nodes with the same name can coexist as siblings - prevents renaming and moving nodes to a parent, which already contains a node with the same name.
$("#tree").jstree({ "plugins" : ["unique"] });
Makes each node appear block level which makes selection easier. May cause slow down for large trees in old browsers.
$("#tree").jstree({ "plugins" : ["wholerow"] });
If you create your own plugin (or download a 3rd party one) you must include its source on the page and list its name in the
"plugins"config array.
// conditional select (function ($, undefined) { "use strict"; $.jstree.defaults.conditionalselect = function () { return true; }; $.jstree.plugins.conditionalselect = function (options, parent) { this.activate_node = function (obj, e) { if(this.settings.conditionalselect.call(this, this.get_node(obj))) { parent.activate_node.call(this, obj, e); } }; }; })(jQuery); $("#tree").jstree({ "conditionalselect" : function (node) { return node.text === "Root node" ? false : true; }, "plugins" : ["conditionalselect"] });
As seen here when creating a plugin you can define a default config, add your own functions to jstree, or override existing ones while maintaining the ability to call the overridden function.
Please do NOT edit files in the "dist" subdirectory as they are generated via grunt. You'll find source code in the "src" subdirectory!
If you want to you can always donate a small amount to help the development of jstree.

So many people too much Facebook
With so many people on FB I often feel as though it's difficult to give my best to some of my closest people.
There are days when I just want and do, stay away from the computer. Problem is, it's part of our businesses these days and, therefore, important.
I love talking to people. Emails are ok and texts make me nuts. I don't mind a text or two but long conversations begin to numb my brain. I am obviously not a millenial.
FB has become a part of our lives. Remember that once it's THERE it's there for life. I can' believe adults forget this.
It's a great way to support others, make announcements, buy and sell, share and laugh.
Madeline, what came over you? I have no idea. I just felt compelled to write this.
Wishing a great day and the wisdom to balance that time on FB.

ART LICENSING FROM my PERSPECTIVE

Here we go again! This merry go round just keeps spinning and spinning. Is there any sign of it ever coming to a stop?
Hamilton, Bermuda - Seadrill continues to see strong demand for modern ultra-deepwater drilling rigs driven by high oil prices and large deep-water discoveries and increased development drilling. Specific interest, mainly from operators in West Africa and the Americas, demonstrate a trend towards higher day rates and longer term contracts.
With yard costs at very attractive levels and Seadrill's proven track record with respect to successful new build construction the Company is pleased to announce the order of a sixth drillship from Samsung Heavy Industries with delivery in the second quarter of 2014. The expected total project cost is less than USD $600 million, in line with the 5 units under construction and with delivery in 2013 and 2014. The yard contract was originally between a party related to Seadrill's major shareholder Hemen Holding and Samsung, as part of a larger shipyard deal, but Seadrill has been given the right to take over the contract at original terms.
Seadrill's current new build program now includes 17 units: 6 ultra deep-water drillships, 1 harsh environment semi submersible, 5 tender rigs and 5 jack ups, all to be delivered in the period from Q4 2012 to Q1 2015. In addition, Seadrill has received a fixed price option for a further ultra deep-water drillship. The six drillships under construction are of the same design and will have a hook load capability of 1,250 tons and a water depth capacity of up to 12,000 feet targeting operations in areas such as the Gulf of Mexico, Brazil and West and East Africa. Also, these units will be outfitted with seven ram configuration of the Blow out Preventer (BOP) stack and with storing and handling capacity for a second BOP.
CEO of Seadrill Alf Thorkildsen comments:
"With the available capacity in 2013 and 2014 Seadrill is uniquely positioned among its peers to take advantage of strong demand for drilling services with high dayrates and longer charter contracts. We will continue to aggressively build Seadrill's earnings and further expansion of the building program is expected in the months to come. Together, these developments provide for continued value creation and an increased dividend capacity."
Coincidentally, Seadrill also announced today the receipt of a letter of award for a new three year contract for a semi-submersible to operate offshore West Africa with a reputable oil company, starting in the second quarter of 2013.
The total potential contract revenue based on 97% utilisation is estimated to approximately USD 710 millions and includes a performance bonus arrangement. The letter of award is subject to final approval by the charterers Board to be lifted no later than May 16th.
Seadrill total order backlog is after this increased to approximately USD $13.3 billion.
[B][I]$13.3 billion dollars! Staggering to utter speachlessness on my part (and that's saying something)!

Photographer's Note
Matsumoto Castle at blue hour
I took several pictures of Matsumoto Castle at the blue hour but since I had no tripod most of them werent sharp enough. This is one I took in the beginning of the blue hour while the main keep of the castle was already illuminated.
Matsumoto-jō (Matsumoto Castle) is one of the most complete and beautiful castles in Japan.
Its wooden interior provides an authentic experience unlike that felt at many other castles in the country that were rebuilt of ferro-concrete. Interesting features of the castle include steep wooden stairs, openings to drop stones onto invaders, openings for archers, as well as an observation deck at the top, sixth floor of the main keep with nice views over the surrounding city.
Matsumoto-jō is Japans oldest original wooden castle.
The main castle and its second donjon were built from 1592 to 1614. These structures were well-fortified as peace was not yet fully achieved at the time.
Built in contrasting black and white, it got the nickname Karasu-jō which means Crow Castle.

Hi Paul
its not too often we get to see these Japanese Castles in Blue Hour! I bet there aren't very many here on TE.
reading your note, thats why I always take my tripod with me in the evening times :)
But I understand, they can be very heavy and hard to carry too.
soft blues, beautiful architecture, cultural, this scene has alot going for it indeed.
a pleasing and different view from Japan

Hello Paul,
I haven't compared this year's Japanese photos from those you took last year, but I have a feeling the new ones are even better than those of 2013. I'm not sure why I like the new ones better, whether there is any connection with the light, or perhaps the inclusion of more people, or just a coincidence. In any case this is another very fine composition with an attractive light and great colours. It's really a very good photo.
Kind regards,
cornejo (61504) 2015-05-09 10:46

A fantastic moment on photo, just lit both the edifice and back of the tree in white/pink blossom, Paul.
You were there both on daylight and dusk, nice to compare the preceeding image posted.
Fabulous sight, photojob superbly done.
Have a nice weekend,
ourania (51103) 2015-05-15 11:02
Hello Paul,
these Japanese castles look so elegant and maybe frail too, they are so different to what we are used to seeing in Europe. I guess their effectiveness relied mainly on the bravery and cunning of the warriors. Your blue hour picture is superb, the illuminated parts and the mild colours in general are beautiful. I also like how in your tight frame the blossomed branches imitate the style of the architecture (or vice versa.) Together they create a fine rhythm. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great weekend,
nikkitta (17070) 2015-05-15 13:34

Good and smart frame to present the castle at this special hour, still the sky is not so dark

Hello Paul, This castle looks marvelous also in early blue hour. You were lucky in Japan to be in sakura time. The white blossoming tree is an important element in this composition. beautiful shot.

The Matsumoto Castle looks beautiful lit up against the blue hour sky. I like the sakura tree on the left lit up by the light. The couple help us understand the scale. With 2.8 this is a reasonably sharp picture. I am also lethargic to use the tripod...I jack up the ISO most of the time
Best Regards

Hello Paul,
great the view of Matsumoto castle during the blue hour.The excellent light and colour management enhance its beauty,with the couple on the left to ads scale in the scene.I like the architectural style as its beauty.Well done.

The first NLDS game in D.C. history belongs to the Washington Nationals. The Nats overcame 7 walks be Gio Gonzalez over 5 innings and came back in the 8th to beat the St. Louis Cardinals. From Nationals vs. Cardinals: Washington wins Game 1 of NLDS, 3-2 (The Post):
Davey Johnson, the 69-year-old managing his first postseason game in 15 years, sent left-hander Chad Tracy to pinch-hit. Rookie manager Mike Matheny countered by calling on Marc Rzepczynski, his only left-handed reliever. Johnson responded by pulling back Tracy and sending up Moore, the rookie who had a 10-homer season in limited time.
"I told Tracy when he went up there, if he takes him out and brings in Rzepczynski or whatever his name, I'm hitting Moore," Johnson said.
Moore went the opposite way, dropping a single in right field to drive in the tying and winning runs.
Moore's heroics were preceded by others. Jayson Werth made an important catch, 1-out, 1-runner on catch at the wall in the sixth:
The KMOX audio is quite something, make sure you watch the whole video to get it.
As you may recall from last week, above top of the padded wall is a home run. Not an easy catch in the sinister shadows of Busch Stadium III.
In the 7th, Ryan Mattheus came up huge, getting out of a bases-loaded, no outs jam. Two pitches, three outs:
I couldn't believe the Cards were so impatient.
Tyler Moore's 2-run single helps Nats edge Cards in Game 1 – The Wash. Times
Moore comes through in pinch, Nats take Game 1 – nationals.com
With one key hit, Nationals overcome a nerve-wracking start – The Post
I watched the game with my family and a friend from preschool. He was always one of the biggest Redskins fans I knew.

flood insurance
A form of insurance coverage that protects a homeowner, business owner, or renter against damages caused to property from flooding. Flood insurance is usually not included with regular insurance plans. If an individual wishes to be covered against flooding, he/she would have to request it and pay an additional fee for the coverage. In some areas (those prone to flooding), flood insurance is required by most mortgage lenders.

If you ever read any of Malcolm Gladwell's books, you will have encountered the famous "cargo cults", where Pacific Islanders built imitations of landing strips, airplaines, etc, hoping that magically attract the wealth of more advanced cultures.
Of course, you could argue that Spain's massive airport over-expansion is a more advanced form of cargo-cultism. It would be interesting to know exactly which magical rituals they were hoping to invoke by building an enormous (ironically slightly Easter-island like) statue of a corrupt Valencian politician next to the plane-less Castellon airport..
But enough about airports and airlines. It was just meant as an introduction to my son's latest homework assignment.
"Today we are studying cameras in science!" he says.
"Great! So what have you learned?"
"Well, they have given us a sheet with a picture of a camera and all the names of the buttons and we need to memorize them. Flash, macro, zoom, show picture, power."
"Do you know what flash is?"
"Did they explain to you anything about how a camera works?"
"Did the teacher bring a camera to class?"
"No. Just the photocopies."
"What about the button to take the picture?"
"Well we don't need to learn that one, it doesn't have any label"
And this is supposed to be one of the best schools in Spain.

text: Software & Apps Apps The Best Email Apps for iPhone 2020 by Heinz Tschabitscher Writer A former freelance contributor who has reviewed hundreds of email programs and services since 1997. our editorial process Heinz Tschabitscher Updated on January 02, 2020 reviewed by Ryan Perian Lifewire Tech Review Board Member Ryan Perian is a certified IT specialist who holds numerous IT certifications and has 12+ years' experience working in the IT industry support and management positions. our review board Article reviewed on Mar 27, 2020 Ryan Perian Apps Best Apps Payment Services Tweet Share Email Find the best email app for iPhone in this curated list (instead of spending hours in the App store fruitlessly trying one worthless email app after the other). Why the Hunt for Best Email App for iPhone Started Late When Steve Jobs first presented iPhone in 2007, email was considered a core function. That meant iPhone came with a built-in email app called Mail. With Mail, you could access your messages everywhere. Mail was a good email program, but it was not a great one. If you did not like Mail, you could not, for all practical purposes, access your email anywhere: deleting the Mail app was impossible, and one could not install an alternative app for accessing email either. That, you see, would have duplicated a core function. Too Many Choices? Start Here Email on the iPhone has come a long way since then. Mail is a seriously great email app, you can delete it if you want, and the App Store is awash in alternative email applications. Now, of course, the challenge is to find the best email app for your iPhone needs. This list is sorted from best to good based on personal experience, and it should let you find the best email app for iPhone in no time. By the way, when you delete an included app on an iOS it doesn't really get deleted, but it does make itself invisible. 01 of 07 Outlook for iOS What We Like Feature-rich app. Strong community for support. Frequent updates. Familiar interface, like the Mac OS version. What We Don't Like Can be a resource hog. Some features cost. Outlook for iOS is fast. It starts fast. It updates fast. It lets you read, send and file mail — fast. While many email apps for iPhone feels sluggish even with these basics, Outlook for iOS progresses beyond them — fast, and far. You can search with near-instant results, for instance, a reasonably intelligent inbox lets you see the most important emails first (thus faster), and you can postpone emails with simple swiping. With support for Exchange and IMAP accounts, Outlook for iOS is the best email app for iPhone in an enterprise environment; POP, alas, is not supported. Like on the desktop, Outlook for iOS comes a calendar, which is simple but functional. Unfortunately, task management is not included. Like on the desktop, you can extend functionality with add-ons, though. Outlook for iOS supports Exchange and IMAP. Download Outlook 02 of 07 Spark What We Like Connect many types of email accounts. Collaboration tools. Create email templates. Several third-party apps. What We Don't Like Frequent issues with Exchange Sync. Free version has feature limitations. Having the best way to handle email signatures makes giving Spark a try worth it, but there is much more to like. When you first open Spark, you are presented with an inbox grouped automatically by category (personal, notifications, newsletters and the rest). It may not be as smart as Google Inbox, but Spark's sorting is useful nonetheless. Spark is not only useful but also a pleasure to behold and use: you get one-tap replies, swiping actions (including an option to snooze email) and fast search results (which you can save as smart folders). Some calendar integration lets you view your schedule and set up events from emails, though neither is as smooth as Spark's email program. Spark supports IMAP. Download Spark 03 of 07 iOS Mail What We Like Supported by Apple with frequent updates. Automatic syncing to Calendar. Excellent Exchange integration perfect for corporate email. What We Don't Like Occasional syncing issues with multiple devices. Some calendar appointments disappear when sync issues occur. "Nature works in the shortest way possible." So says Aristotle. If you believe him — and who would doubt Aristotle? — then iOS Mail is the most natural email program for iPhone. In lieu of algorithmic classifications, hashed tags and finely grained options, iOS Mail offers simple solutions that are good enough for most needs. You can sort out VIP senders (which you get to define) and file emails to folders, of course; you can compose emails using rich text and swipe to take action fast; most importantly, perhaps, you get beautifully rendered emails without clutter and just about nothing to learn, to find out or to puzzle. iOS Mail supports Exchange, IMAP and POP. Read our review of iOS Mail 04 of 07 Edison Mail What We Like Easy unsubscribe feature for email. Responsive in syncing. Track packages, travel, entertainment, and more. What We Don't Like Occasional syncing and connection issues. Cannot mark emails as spam. Edison Mail's email is not the digital assistant it claims to be; it is a fantastic email program that gets the important things right. First, the 'assistant' claim: Edison Mail does not offer you the emails you need to see at any time without prompt; it does not reply to messages on its own or even suggest likely text to use. It does, however, suggest recipients based on frequency and can filter and use emails by type — bills, booking and shipment notifications as well as email subscriptions. For the latter — and here is where the important things have already started going very right — email lets you find all messages fast (search in general is awesomely fast and useful), delete the whole bunch in an instant and unsubscribe with a single tap. When you do read newsletters and marketing emails, email lets you block read receipts. When you want to read later, email offers convenient snoozing; when you tapped Send too fast, email lets you undo. The Snooze feature is only available for iOS users at this time. That means if you're using Edison mail on Android devices, any snooze settings you've enabled on your iOS device won't sync across platforms. The development team at Edison calls this a 'coming soon' feature, but no specific release date has been provided. Possibly the most important thing about an email app is, of course, its speed. Edison Mail gets this one very right. Edison Mail supports Exchange and IMAP. Download Edison Mail 05 of 07 Polymail What We Like One tap unsubscribe feature. Customizable swipe actions. Schedule when emails are sent. What We Don't Like Doesn't work with password management tools. Mail frequently loads slowly. Exchange is not supported. Polymail comes with a host of features from email (and attachment) tracking to scheduling delivery to message templates. If you cannot tell already, Polymail is geared toward the professional. Consequently, some of the features are limited to a subscription service. Unfortunately, Polymail does not work with Exchange accounts directly yet and supports IMAP only. No matter the edition and account, Polymail lets you postpone emails for later reading. This, like a few other oft-used function is accessible using a swipe menu whose actions you can customize. The Polymail inbox is always a plain list of emails sorted by date, though: you can filter it to show only unread emails but it never organizes or groups itself. Polymail supports IMAP. Download Polymail 06 of 07 Airmail What We Like Sync across multiple devices. Easy to configure interface. Helpful technical support. What We Don't Like Email searches are clunky and inaccurate. Flaky performance with Exchange. Airmail does everything, it seems, and then some (seriously, try it if you don't believe me). Here's what I mean: Turn emails into to-do items or add them to the calendar? At your service! Schedule an email to be sent later? Of course (using Exchange and Gmail).Organize with folders and labels as you like? Sure.Block a sender? Right in the app.Undo send? Airmail has you covered for a few seconds.Snooze an email? For how long would you like to postpone it?Pick actions available from new mail notifications? You bet.Add files from cloud storage as attachments? Here you go.See an email's full source code? In Courier.Lock your email with Touch ID? Thumbs up from Airmail. In this manner, it goes on and on. Of course, so do menus and options and buttons in Airmail. There is much to do, a lot to tap and plenty to configure. Not everything is as obvious, unfortunately, and there is little explanation to be found. Also, while Airmail does include a smart, filtered inbox, its implementation is not the most elegant, search is unstructured and not all that smart, and Airmail could help more with smart email templates or text snippets. Airmail supports IMAP and POP. Download Airmail 07 of 07 Yahoo! Mail What We Like Works with different email accounts. Interface is easily to customize. Coupon feature, easy access to savings. What We Don't Like Security issues in the past. Pay for premium features. Names and titles can be deceiving at first. Yahoo! Mail is for Yahoo! Mail accounts — and for a few others, too (Gmail, Outlook.com). What is not deceiving about the Yahoo! Mail app for iPhone is the friendly, simple face it presents at first. Without confusing through a multitude of options and actions, Yahoo! Mail lets you star mail to highlight it, file it in folders, search fast and get your inbox filtered by a handful of useful categories (including people, social updates, and those important travel emails). For sending email, Yahoo! Mail shines with impressive image sending and attachment support as well as its unique and colorful email stationery. Yahoo! Mail supports Yahoo! Mail, Gmail, and Outlook Mail on the Web. Download Yahoo! Mail

Isn't it always the little things that make your whole DAY?
And isn't a good LIFE just a string of really really good DAYS?
Well here's a little thing – that's actually not so little.
A chance to have me – or one of my personally trained staff coaches – give our undivided attention to YOU, your deepest desires for your life and career, and the fastest way to realize those desires AND pinpoint and handle anything that might currently be in the way (there's always SOMETHING).
I'm describing what it's like to be on the receiving end of our "Grounding Your Vision" Coaching Session.
Not to toot our own tooter, but these sessions are what we here at Abundant Yogi are best at – for two simple reasons.
First, because we care – a lot. Taking people who are unclear and ungrounded, and getting them really clear and focused, with all their pigeons in a row…just happens to be our obsession.
And second, because we've been at this for like, a DECADE now.
And while we've helped a lot of people just like you to increase their income and improve their lifestyle through several earth-shattering AHAs and many strategic moves towards authenticity…
The magic of coaching is that, sometimes you can achieve results like that with just ONE aha, or ONE smart move. These signature sessions are notorious for facilitating that kind of an instant transformation.
We love to do it. And to prove it, this one's on us.
"I went to bed last night full of self-doubt, having zero confidence… today, after my coaching session, I have what I need and I know that it's all going to be okay. I'm on fire and can't wait to put all of this into action!"
– Lindsey Walker
Whether you're here to get in line for an introductory coaching session with me or one of my coaches on staff, or to apply for an Abundant Yogi Training Program, please know that both are by invitation only and limited to one per person.
- Use the scheduler below to request your preferred timeframe for a FREE "Grounding Your Vision" coaching session, which also determines your eligibility for access to AY programs.
- Complete the accompanying intake form, being especially detailed and specific as it pertains to your biggest current challenges and your readiness to take practical steps to move your vision forward — starting TODAY.
- Keep an eye on your email inbox for your official appointment date and time.
**Spots in line for these sessions fill up quickly — but the sooner you use the scheduler on this page to pick a general timeframe that works for you, the sooner you will inch your way to the front of the line — then we can get back to you when we have a spot available that matches your timeframe. At that point, we'll officially book your coaching session to help you move you from confusion and overwhelm to CRISP CLARITY and direction.
IMPORTANT NOTE IF YOU SKIPPED THE AUDIO ABOVE, MS. IMPATIENT-PANTS: You'll notice during the booking process that we ask for your credit card info. This is required ONLY to hold your spot on our schedule, as a way to safeguard against last-minute cancellations and no-shows. Your card will not be charged at this time.
Can't wait to chat in person!
IMPORTANT: Once you've submitted your preferred time slot for your 1:1 coaching session, check your inbox to confirm you've received a Confirmation Email from us — as it includes important information about solidifying your appointment. (Note: If you don't receive your Confirmation Email, please email support(at)abundantyogi.com.

In May 2017 a season of short films ended with the Rotterdams Open Doek Filmfestival, as every year, hosted by Lantaren Venster in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. I was asked to illustrate Rotterdams skyline, combined with their logo. This was printed on the CREWs T-shirt and on another bunch for merchandise purpose that night.
The above picture I did just for fun for my portfolio. I got a bit carried away….

Official: Manchester City sign Riyad Mahrez from Leicester City
Manchester City have announced the signing of Riyad Mahrez from Leicester.
The 27-year-old signed a five-year deal with the premier league champions.
Riyad Mahrez was an integral part of Leicester's title-winning side in 2016, he has been trying to get a move to the Etihad Stadium as he submitted a transfer request during the last transfer window as well as forced a January move which didn't work.
Finally, he has achieved his dream of playing for Pep Guardiola.
Welcome @Mahrez22 to @ManCity #welcomeriyad pic.twitter.com/3EATCilOVM— PepTeam (@PepTeam) July 10, 2018
Here is an excerpt from Man City's official website:
"I am so pleased to have joined City, a side playing great football under Pep Guardiola," Mahrez said.
"Watching them from afar has been a pleasure. Pep is committed to playing attacking football, which is a perfect for me, and City's performances last season were outstanding. They're redefining the English game and I wanted to be a part of it.
"I think we can be successful over the coming years and I believe my own game can develop under Pep's management."
Director of Football Txiki Begiristain added: "Riyad is a hugely talented player. He beats defenders and creates space.
"Over the past few years, he has established himself as one of the Premier League's most exciting players.
"We're sure he will bring additional attacking quality to our squad."
Mahrez was born in France and began his professional career at Le Havre, where he made 67 appearances over a three-year period.
He signed for Leicester in 2013 and helped them win promotion to the Premier League by the end of his first season. He played 19 times and scored three goals, finishing the season strongly after an initial period of adjustment.

Life Insurance Center
How To Buy Life Insurance
It's all about you. We want to help you make the right coverage choices.
We strive to help you make confident insurance decisions. Comparison shopping should be easy. We partner with top insurance providers. This doesn't influence our content. Our opinions are our own.
Article 3 of 12 in What to Know Before You Buy Life Insurance
Buying life insurance is important not only for those you leave behind, but also to give you the peace of mind knowing that your loved ones are taken care of. Many life insurance plans are affordable and offer easy payment options. Your need for life insurance depends on many factors, so before you select a policy you need to assess your needs, decide on the best type of life insurance for you, and figure out how much coverage to purchase. Life insurance needs to fit your budget and lifestyle, so take the time to learn about your options before you make a choice.
TIP: A reputable insurance agent can guide you through this process of choosing the life insurance plan that will assure that you and your family have the proper coverage. Contact an agent with any questions you have about life insurance.
Find the Right Type of Life Insurance Policy For You'
Because it has several different uses, there are several types of life insurance. The primary, and most important, purpose is to provide a source of income for your spouse, children, dependents, or other beneficiaries if you should die. Term life insurance provides exactly that, and nothing else. However, if you buy a permanent life insurance plan, your policy can also serve as a financial savings and investment tool, and be used for estate planning purposes, such as giving money to charity when you die or providing for a buy-out of a business interest. You need to figure out what you need from life insurance before you can find the right policy. Once you establish what you want out of your policy, then you can determine what type is best for you. The type of life insurance plan you purchase for yourself and your family will depend on your goals and your age.
The best life insurance may contain both term and permanent insurance plans, giving you the maximum coverage when you need it most. It may include multiple term plans to give you extra coverage during times when your financial contribution to your family or business is more important than usual. The best life insurance policy is the one that fits your needs and your lifestyle. Evaluate your needs, learn the available options, and make the decision that seems best for you.
TIP: Finding the right type of plan for you is critical. Learn about term life insurance and permanent insurance. If you still need assistance, you can ask an experienced life insurance agent for advice.
Some Important Questions to Ask
Whether you are consulting an agent or making a decision about life insurance on your own, you need to consider some important points before you can find the right policy:
- Based on my financial situation, lifestyle, and number of dependents, how much life insurance do I need?
- What is cash value of life insurance? Do I need it? How do cash values accumulate?
- How has the policy's cash value performed in the past?'Try to determine how the policy performed in comparison with the company's projections and with other insurers.
- Is the premium payment level (meaning the premium will not increase with age)?
- If there are any special features in the policy, do they add value for you, or are they just bells and whistles that you will be paying for but don't need?
