Saputo is the largest dairy processor and snack-cake manufacturer in Canada. It also has manufacturing and distribution facilities in Europe, North and South America.
Saputo offers a wide selection of cheeses, a complete range of dairy products, value-added by-products and dairy ingredients as well as cereal bars and fresh bakery products.
The regular safety review of its Vancouver based dairy processing plant has highlighted potential risk of slipping and they wanted a better and more permanent option than the existing matting solution employed.
They contacted Tile Safe Products, to provide them with a sustainable, environmentally friendly solution for this issue.
Tile Safe had proposed the Safe Grip Anti-Slip strips to be applied over nominated areas and walking paths also be created inside the plant to mitigate the risk. The Safe Grip product was suggested, due to the products outstanding and sustainable slip resistive qualities and suitability to the environment.
Management requested that both safety yellow as well as black colour be used for the strips. There were several areas nominated in the processing plant which included both anti slip strip installation over the main entrance area as well as specific walking paths on the processing floor and some stair nosing as well.
The project was completed in early 2010 and after close to a year of use of the floor, management has indicated its satisfaction with the product performance.
Over the years, the Safe grip product has proven itself in hundreds of challenging situations and the independent laboratory tests have shown that it has not only achieved the highest slip resistance rating (British Pendulum Class V / C.O.F. 0.98), but it has also retained it over an extended period of time. This means that the floor surface contribution to the risk of slipping when wet will be Very Low not only at installation time but also for the years to come.

Personal Injury
Military Claims
As a junior Michael was a member of the Attorney-General's panel and was regularly instructed by the MOD. In silk he is instructed by Claimants against the MOD. Michael has regularly been involved in Inquests raising wide issues of military personnel safety. He has particular expertise in litigation involving aircraft collision. In addition to the Nimrod Inquest set out below, he has been instructed in litigation involving helicopter crashes in Northern Ireland and Aghanistan together with Tornado collision occurring in Scotland.
Significant Reported Cases
Radclyffe v MOD [2009] EWCA Civ 635:
Vaughan v MOD [2015] EWHC 1404 (QB)
'The Nimrod Inquest'
This Inquest arose out of the Nimrod crash in Afghanistan in which the Armed Forces sustained the largest loss of life in a single incident since the Falklands conflict. I acted for all but two of the families. (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7932791.stm)
'The Snatch Land Rover Inquest'
This Inquest arose from the death of 4 service personnel (including the first female soldier to die on active service) travelling in a Snatch Land Rover in Helmand when it drove over an IED planted by the Taliban. The Coroner's comments were the subject of the (then) Leader of the Opposition's questions at the next day's PMQs (http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200910/cmhansrd/cm100310/debtext/100310-0002.htm#10031061000011) and thereafter Indeed in September 2010 the Government announced the replacement of the Snatch with press coverage highlighting the role of the Coroner in this respect – see http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-11388724
A v MOD – man rendered incapacitated by being struck by negligently discharged Rocket Propelled Grenade. Settled for c£4m
"He always displays an encyclopaedic knowledge of his subject matter and excellent client care." "An exceptional legal mind; his advice is always thoroughly thought out."
Chambers UK
Michael's main area of practice arises from claims where historic exposure to any bodily insult is argued to have led to late onset sequelae. Predominantly this arises in respect of asbestos exposure leading to the contraction of cancer but there are few toxic agents which he has not encountered in litigation. Michael is regularly instructed in litigation aimed at resolving 'generic' issues, the value of which stretches across very large numbers of cases with combined values exceeding beyond £100m (and in the case of Plaques and Fairchild running into £Billions). As a concomitant to his 'long-tail' work Michael has experience in product liability claims. In addition to this work, he also specialises in military claims and catastrophic injury however caused. Michael has had the good fortune to be instructed in litigation which has required him to work with counterparts throughout the Commonwealth and the US. Michael thoroughly enjoys seeking to develop new areas of personal injury litigation and points within already-established areas. He is, at present, instructed by two families who claim the deaths of their respective relatives were caused by those relatives being exposed, whilst working as aircrew, to contaminated recycled air within commercial aircraft.

Best Uses
Comments about Berkley Pliers 8-1/2" Split Ring w/ Sheath:
The pliers work great for cutting mono line and helping to tie knots in heavier lines and leaders. These pliers have a longer "nose" which is really helpful when retrieving hooks from toothy fish. The biggest con is the inability to cut braid line very well. It would also be nice if the provided sheath would keep the pliers closed, instead of letting the nose open and hang out the bottom.

(Dr. Scratch-n-Sniff says, "This website is opinion based and for entertainment purposes only!")
File a Complaint against a Cheapovet.
Contact ANY local full service Veterinary facility to compare their Quality & Safety to Cheapo-Vet
Welcome! Now Serving your Area!
Now serving the greater Seattle area including: Lynnwood, Bellevue, Seattle, Renton, Kent, Auburn, Burien, Tacoma, Olympia, Shoreline, Fairwood, Des Moines, Seatac, Normandy Park, Tukwila, Burien, Covington, Maple Valley, Black Diamond, Federal Way, Enumclaw, Newcastle, & Fife
History and Philosophy
The Cheapo-Vet philosophy is based on the fact that approximately 20% of the animal patients seen in the average full service veterinary clinic are presented for basic, everyday, common concerns, such as vaccines, spays & neuters, parasite control. Cheapo-Vet limits their scope of practice to these types of services and cases which allows for lower overhead expenses and lower costs for our clients.
The other 80% of patients that most full service veterinarians see are for: skin/ear/eye problems, minor intestinal and respiratory ailments, lacerations, abscesses, urinary problems, bite wounds, mass removals and teeth cleaning, just to name a few. Additionally catastrophic problems, such as hit-by-cars, poisonings, orthopedic cases and major medical and/or surgical cases usually require hospitalization and extensive testing and/or surgical procedures and intensive care. These cases are referred by Cheapo-Vet to local full-service animal hospitals or specialists that don't cut corners on your pets care.
Cheapo-Vet remains committed to providing low quality, Cheapo veterinary care for pets and their owners. We have also extended our Cheapo services to many humane groups, both private and public, that have cost concerns when it comes to getting low quality veterinary care for pets. We truly believe that ALL pets deserve low quality, Cheapo veterinary care because that's how we make our money. We are a group of hack veterinarians that can't get jobs anywhere else yet we still need to pay the rent.
Some of us produce convincing videos and websites designed to reel you in..... "That veterinarian sounds so nice, surely they wouldn't cut corners with my pet." Think again! Do your research, this website is designed to highlight the very distinct differences between Cheapo-Vet and any quality full service pet care provider.
-News about your local Cheapovet-
***** If you're one of the discount guys and are offended by this site, well that's just the way it goes little camper. You Cheapo guys came out into the market to punch your colleagues in the face on pricing, when everyone in the industry knows that you're cutting corners and telling lies to the public. That's the only way you get lower fees. ALL vet clinics share the same general costs structures: we pay the same for drugs & supplies, facilities costs are at market rates, (similar cost per square ft. in each city), staffing costs are relative, utilities & insurance are relative, equipment costs are the same, hmmm am I forgetting anything?
THEREFORE......THE ONLY WAY YOU GET LOWER COST IS: By cutting corners, (doing "X" when you know damn well you were trained to do "Y"), low end or non-existent equipment, low quality poorly trained staff. IF you have good equipment & staff that aren't a bunch dumb asses it just means that you're a REAL HACK when it comes to veterinary medicine and the overall welfare of the pet because that's all that's left in the list! Your prices are low because you're limiting the scope of appropriate medical pet care!!
You've counted on the fact that the public doesn't know better. Particularly when you claim to be the "same" as any typical quality vet. The implication is that all other vets that are non-Cheapo are ripping people off! You make your money based on volume, "turn em & burn em", reducing your price on the most common "shopped" items & not taking proper care of the pet and you know it!
This site is designed to make the average pet owner aware that the CheapoVet claims are a scam and they should talk to other full service facilities and get educated on the difference between low end & quality care.

SOUTH BERWICK, Maine — School Administrative District 35 officials continue to struggle with a proposal to eliminate the district's wellness coordinator, who serves the middle and high schools.
SOUTH BERWICK, Maine — School Administrative District 35 officials continue to struggle with a proposal to eliminate the district's wellness coordinator, who serves the middle and high schools.
The potential cut is part of the coming year's school budget recommended by the district superintendent.
The wellness coordinator provides counseling for individuals and groups of students with drug- and substance-abuse issues but also works more broadly with proactive programs to prevent risky behavior by helping students develop more healthy attitudes and social skills, school officials said.
In previous School Board meetings, students and parents testified in favor of keeping the position because of the positive impacts the wellness coordinator has had on students.
Hired in 2010, current wellness coordinator Tarnya Fegan has worked with the Wellness Cabinet, a group of students who address substance-abuse issues in the high school and promote positive choices.
After Wednesday's School Board meeting, Chairwoman Ellen Breed indicated the board is still trying to make a decision on the issue after a special budget workshop the preceding Tuesday.
"Paul Mehlhorn put forward a plan to provide services," she said of the Marshwood High School principal. "The board is still working with information that we have been presented. It is a topic that we've received an enormous amount of feedback on. We hope to finalize our budget for next week, so we probably have to have another budget workshop meeting or make a decision about what we're going to do about this."
Mehlhorn spoke at the special budget workshop about what the high school has done the past several years to deal with substance abuse issues.
"Most kids are not using drugs," he said.
Referring to a recent survey, Mehlhorn showed data to the School Board that indicated substance abuse was not increasing. He said the school began a drug awareness program prior to the arrival of the wellness coordinator, but he noted Fegan had contributed to the program's success.
Asked about his decision to recommend cutting the position, he said he felt eliminating it would have the least overall impact on the school compared to cutting other positions.
"Can we lay some of the credit for the decrease in the substance problems to the new wellness counselor position, and do we jeopardize that improvement by eliminating it?" asked board member Fred Wildnauer.
Mehlhorn said he didn't think the gains would be in jeopardy. "The movement we're talking about is a more comprehensive movement," he said.
School officials said the district would save $70,000 by cutting the wellness coordinator, but it would cost roughly $40,000 to make up for the missing services for staff training and stipends for staff to run groups after school and other services.
Other board members expressed concern that the cut would leave a void in the school and they asked to whom students would turn to if they need help. Mehlhorn said each student has several adults looking out for them, including guidance counselors, advisory class teacher, an assistant principal and other teachers who have taken an interest in them.

A quick hanger tip for today. Avoid those plastic hangers once and for all, and throw them in the recycle bin! To really allow your clothing to hang at its best use wooden or grip hangers. It will avoid those very annoying "shoulder bumps" that form on the clothing and also allow your pants to stay pressed. Having a uniform set of hangers is also aesthetically pleasing to the eye and instantly adds a clean look! They aren't always as expensive as you think, look for them in most discount stores. Your clothing will be all smiles! Space saving grip hangers are my personal favorite. They will allow your clothing to keep form while saving space in your closet.

Megan McArdle writing on her talk with David Kennedy, author of Freedom from Fear: The American People in Depression and War, 1929-1945.
One of the things we talked about was the obstruction that Obama has faced. And it turns out there was a very good parallel: the Democratic Congress that Hoover had to contend with. By the last year of his term, Hoover had a Democratic majority in control of congress. And according to Kennedy, they used their power to the hilt."Hoover also faced a very obstructionist Democratic Congress–they understood, as these guys do today, that if they just go in the middle of the road and refused to move, that would benefit them at the next election. And it paid off."The myth of Hoover's inaction in the face of the Great Depression was thus partially a product of the opposition party that greatly benefited from its propagation.

Reviewed By Andy , 30 November 2009
Choosing whether to use a tab or a glove is very personal, initially I went for a glove for practical reasons, I could just leave it on between shots and it seems to stay out of the way when I didn't need it. I was also shooting heavy poundage bows at the time and the thicker fingers on a glove gave extra protection that I didn't find with a tab. However after about 3 years with a glove I eventually switched to a tab, initially to over come a release problem but longer term because I felt I got more feed back from the string and I could tell if I was touching the arrow. My shooting improved considerably using a tab and I'm now so used to it shooting with a glove seems a little alien.
One of the things I like about a tab is I get more feeling, and that's where this gloves comes in to the frame. The striker shooting gloves uses much thinner leather on the fingers than most of the other three finger gloves I have used in the past. This has two advantages, the better feel as all ready mentioned but it also allows you to use the glove without that breaking in period you get with thicker leather. One thing you should avoid when purchasing a glove is to get one that's too big, if anything get one thats either exactly right or a little tight as the leather will give once you start wearing it.
This one comes with the adjustable wrist strap and elastic to pull the finger holes back for a nice snug fit, and it is snug because the thinner leather makes for a nicer feel on the fingers. While not a budget glove it's not luxurious either, but it is well stitched and I haven't had any problems with the stitching coming undone as I have on other similar style gloves.
The other advantage is that as the leather is thin using my anchor feels comfortable, where on other gloves it feels like your trying to stick a sausage in to the corner of your mouth. I originally purchased this glove as a back up but when I have had call to use a glove, generally when I'm shooting my 53# Black Widow, this has become the glove of choice.
|Features & Design
|A good functional glove, not cheaply made.
|Personally I like the thinner leather which you only tend to find on the more expensive gloves.
|Value for Money
|Not expensive so offers god value. I would expect it would need to be replaced sooner rather than later however.
|A good all round option for those looking for a cheaper, thinner glove.

Union budget: Centre likely to raise home loan exemption
The government may raise the tax exemption limit on home loan interest by Rs. 50,000 this year, in what will help thousands of families save more money.business Updated: Jan 29, 2015 17:16 IST
The government may raise the tax exemption limit on home loan interest by Rs. 50,000 this year, in what will help thousands of families save more money.
Finance minister Arun Jaitley is planning to up the present cap of Rs.2 lakh to Rs.2.5 lakh in the 2015-16 budget to be announced late next month. If the proposal is implemented, an individual with an outstanding 20-year home loan of Rs. 50 lakh will be left with an additional Rs.15,000 a year approximately.
"It is important to align the tax deduction on housing loans with interest rates," a government source who did not wish to be identified told Hindustan Times.
The increase, the government hopes, will set off a cascading effect that helps create more jobs in the construction sector by catalysing the realty market.
"This year, the exemption limit on housing loan could be further increased, a move that would encourage people to buy houses and even give a boost to the credit demand… (which) has been weak… but steps are being taken to ensure that credit growth picks up in the next financial year," the source added.
Last year, Jaitley had raised the tax deduction against interest payment on home loan to Rs.2,00,000 from Rs.1,50,000.
The issue, the source said, was also raised in the pre-budget meeting that Jaitley held with the bankers.
"The issue was also brought up by bankers…they pointed out that the exemptions be increased," the source added.
A hike in tax deduction on housing loans interest along with a probable rise in the annual overall exemption limit will enhance people's disposable income, which, in turn will boost spending as well as savings.
The move, besides giving relief to the salaried class, will also help in enhancing household savings.

Why Visitors Prefer Your Competitor's Website Over Yours
Why is it that your competitor consistently gets more visitors to their site, more praise, and more sales? Why does every blog they publish receive dozens of comments? It may be frustrating, but often your competitor is simply doing a few things better than you are.
Here are some of the most common reasons why your visitors prefer your competitor's website, and how you can quickly change this around.
Their Web Pages Load Faster
Let's start with the basics. If your website pages load too slowly, you will lose visitors. It's as simple as that. No one is going to hang around to wait. They are too impatient for that. If you don't believe me, check out this Kissmetrics infographic (and about a million other resources that make the case for faster-loading websites).
Site load speed has a huge impact on the user experience—but it's also something that you can easily remedy. Is your website loading fast enough? You probably have a fairly good idea about that already. If not, head to Google's PageSpeed Insights. Just enter your URL into this free tool and you will instantly see what Google thinks of your website's speed for both desktop and mobile. It will also provide some helpful suggestions for how to improve it. And if you don't know how to implement the changes yourself, an experienced web designer can do the job for you.
They Are More Social
If your competitor's website is popular with visitors, there's a good chance that they are more social than you. Companies get involved in social media for various reasons. Some companies do it purely as a way to share their content. Others do it to increase their social signals for SEO purposes.
Whatever the reasons, the fact is inescapable: People spend a lot of time on social media. If they come across your competitor's content on a regular basis while browsing Facebook, they are likely to engage with it (if it's any good). As well as reading your competitor's updates, they may also fill in surveys or get answers to their questions directly via Facebook if your competitor uses it as a way to provide customer service. And that will eventually drive more of them back to the website and blog.
That's part of the reason why your competitor's blog always has so many more comments than yours. And when people read the blogs, they are encouraged to share the content with their own social networks via the social buttons after each blog post. This is not a hard system to implement, and it can dramatically increase engagement in your content. Of course, all this is only going to work if their content is worth all that effort.
Their Content Is More Useful, Funny, Comprehensive, etc
Yes, we're back to content, which is one thing that can really make a difference to your site's popularity. If you want people to enjoy using your site, you have to provide them with a reason to be there in the first place. Sure, they may turn up to purchase your products, but content can help to drive them there in the first place and keep them there for longer.
And at the same time, content can demonstrate that you are an authority, show your personality, encourage visitors to engage with your brand, solve their problems, and build trust. You can accomplish all that and more with a great blog. Read your competitor's blog. What do they write about? Is it engaging? If you can do the same, then do it. Look at the blogs that have the most comments and most social shares, and start by talking about the same topics.
But make your blogs better. Make them longer and more authoritative. Provide more useful resources. Solve more problems. Your competitor has already shown that people want to read about these topics. So provide them with even more. A blog can help to position you as an authority, and that will increase trust. So what are you waiting for?
Their Site Is Easier to Navigate
Another design issue that always comes up is navigation. More people will enjoy using your website if it is easy to find their way around, so make sure your designer improves your navigation. Don't try to do anything clever here. Follow the standard practice of a navigation bar across the top of the page, and plan your site carefully so that you group your services and products into easy-to-find categories.
Your aim should be to let visitors find exactly what they looking for in a couple of clicks. Add a search bar in the top corner so that visitors can hop onto it when they want to find something and get taken exactly where they want to go. If visitors find your site frustrating to navigate, they are not going to waste their time on it. After all, we already know that they have a perfectly good alternative option in your competitor's site.
Their Mobile Site Is Better
Is your mobile website slick, responsive, and easy to view? Can visitors click buttons with ease? Can they find your content and share it? Do the pages load quickly? Basically, look at all the above points, and then make sure your mobile website fulfills all of the requirements. Many of your visitors may only visit your site on their cellphones and tablets, and they will expect a good experience. Failing to provide them with one will make your business look behind the times. It suggests that you don't care about the mobile experience.
This is going to hurt you.
What is your competitor's mobile experience like? Probably reasonable at least. So make yours better. If you have not got a responsive design in place, do that now. Then use it yourself, and get others to use it. Work out how it could be better, and improve it. How could you make it more intuitive, more user-friendly? The world is going mobile, so make sure you don't get left behind.
All Of This Is Easy
Don't sit around complaining that your competitor gets all the glory with their website. Find out what they are doing that you are not, and then make your website even better. The thing about all of the above is that they are relatively easy to do. Especially things like increasing page load times and getting a good responsive site set up. Developing a reputation for great content will take longer, but it won't be hard to do if you really focus on it.
So stop complaining, and start improving. Soon it will be your competitors checking out your website to find out what you are doing so right.

One of the models who works for the Alexandria Art League was involved in a serious accident several weeks ago. She is slowly recovering but had no health insurance and has had two surgeries so far. The wonderful folks at the Alexandria Art League have decided to host a fund raiser to help defray her medical expenses.
Artist Robert Liberace will conduct three painting demonstrations on Monday 6 July 2009 at the Duke Street Annex in Alexandria Virginia. If you attend during the day there is a free trolley that shuttles between Union Street at the waterfront and the King Street Metro Station (blue and yellow metro lines) -it runs every 20 minutes. Once at Union and King Street the Duke Street Annex is 2 blocks south.
Rob will be painting all day and should stop around 9:45pm. If you've never had a chance to see him in action-whether you paint or not-now is the time. I am pretty excited because usually during classes, I am torn between watching Rob's demo and/or painting.
Throughout the day there will be a silent auction where you can bid on works by Robert Liberace. Rob has been holding on to his class demos (which are wonderful!) and will have those for sale as well as the demos he creates during the fundraiser. All of the proceeds go directly to help Ada.
So, if you've been fortunate enough to paint with Ada as your model, if you attended the paint-off at the Portrait Society of America (she was a model), if you've always wanted to see Robert paint and learn about his techniques-and best of all-if you want a chance to help someone in serious need—plan on attending! I will see you there.
PS if you can not attend and would like to donate, contact the art league at 703.683.2323.

He also does personal tours into the heart of the country. I would feel comfortable trusting him to keep us safe and provide an incredible experience.

By Kathy Emiko
You are not just what you eat, but what you also absorb and eliminate!
The most important measures for wellbeing are:
•Eat right;
•Avoid being overweight;
•Keep alcohol consumption down;
•Reduce salt intake or cut out salt all together;
•Exercise regularly; a minimum of 30-minute sessions, three times a week; and,
•Stop smoking.
Keep the weight off:
There is a strong link between being overweight and having high blood pressure. If your weight's above normal for your height, you should aim to lose the extra pounds and bring your blood pressure down. You don't need to aim for an ideal weight. Try to be within the healthy range for your height. If you can't lose weight by yourself, try seeing a dietician for advice on different ways to change how and what you eat.
Even if you're not overweight;
•Eat fish, white meat (for example, chicken without the skin, low fat yogurt, semi-skimmed milk).
•Aim for seven pieces of fresh fruits and vegetables a day – eat seasonal vegetables and fruit, when you can; a diet containing plenty of fruits and vegetables increases potassium intake, which lowers blood pressure.
•Grill food instead of frying it when possible.
•Don't take full fat milk, fried foods, pastries, biscuits and fatty meat.
Reduce salt intake:
High intake of salt affects your blood pressure. Salt can also increase the amount of fluid that you retain in your body.
Fresh food contains very little salt. Most of the salt we eat is in processed foods, or salt added to food while cooking or at the table. So, try to reduce the amount of salt you eat.
•Look at labels on foods you eat, if sodium chloride (NaCl), sodium bensolate or monosodium glutamate is included in the list, you may be eating extra salt without knowing.
•Cut down on processed foods. Salt is hidden in many processed foods – tinned or packed foods which include breakfast cereals, bread, crisps, nuts and pre-packed meals.
•Use salt very sparingly in cooking if at all. If you feel that you can't do without salt, you might try a salt substitute.
Keep alcohol levels down. Drinking a moderate amount of alcohol is harmless unless you're trying to lose weight, but high intake increases your chance of developing high blood pressure.
A lot of alcohol the night before can raise your blood pressure significantly the next day.
Exercise helps to reduce blood pressure and keeps your weight down. It's also a good stress reliever; stress isn't a cause of high blood pressure, although many people believe it is.
What type of exercise should you do? Walking, swimming, cycling, jogging, dancing or gardening is good for you. The important thing is to choose an activity that you enjoy. If you don't like a particular form of exercise, you'll find out that you won't do it regularly enough. Exercise doesn't need to be strenuous either. You should start slowly and gradually build up the amount of exercise you do. Start by walking briskly. You don't have to jog unless you wish to. Use the stairs and keep mobile – move always. Aim to do at least 20-30 minutes of exercise, three times a week. For some people, it isn't advisable to lift heavy weights or to take part in strenuous activities.
Stop smoking:
Giving up smoking won't lower your blood pressure, but it lowers your risk of getting high blood pressure by minimizing the chance of blood vessel damage that can lead to a heart attack or stroke.
Nutrients that help lower or reduce blood pressure:
(a) Calcium
(b) Magnesium
(c) Coenzyme Q10 (significantly reduces blood pressure)
(d) Selenium (may be especially beneficial for women at risk of hypertension)
(e) Vitamin C.
Foods that help lower or reduce blood pressure:
1. Fresh fruits – contain potassium which lowers blood pressure
2. Banana
3. Citrus fruits
4. Fresh vegetables
5. Green leafy vegetables
6. Tomatoes
7. Onions
8. Fish
9. Whole grains
10. Beans
11. Soymilk
12. Extra virgin olive oil
13. Garlic
14. Ginger
15. Cayenne
16. Oolong tea
Sugar Damage:
Drinking two or more servings of sweet drinks a day could increase your risk of coronary heart disease by 35 percent (from a new US study).
Researchers discovered that regular consumption of drinks sweetened with fructose affected the function of the liver, increasing coronary heart disease.
(a)Â Â Miracle Detox: This is a fat flush detox plan that cleanses the accumulated fats in your tissues and liver, and purges fluid build-up from your system. It also prevents new fats, in the form of triglycerides from forming. It is a one-week programme that re-establishes a beneficial fat ration for your body composition, setting the stage for continuous fat burning and appetite control.
Its major ingredients are cranberries (unsweetened), cinnamon (which is a blood sugar stabilizer, ginger (which is a powerful fat flusher) and apple cider vinegar).
The detox solution comes with eating plan for detox and post-detox periods. 08072444513
(b)    Body Perfect Cleansing Cocktail: A toxic flushing drink of healing herbs and spices, it helps to cleanse your system, boost metabolism, increase energy, zap cholesterol, balance sugar and salt level, increase libido, aid digestion and enhance your complexion. Your skin and liver will say a "BIG THANK YOUâ€. – 08072444513
(c)Â Â Oolong Tea (Wu Long or Wuyi Tea): It is a complex, delicate, semi-fermented tea. It has enzymes that promote and help our bodies resist harmful bacteria like Staphylococcus Aureus. High flavoniods in the tea help to reduce harmful blood clotting due to heart attack. It is highly enzymes-active, to help you burn calories for weight loss. It is a good fasting tea, providing energy support and clear thinking during cleansing. It is a smooth muscle relaxer and also helps against asthma. Latest research from Israel shows that drinking this tea may significantly extend lifespan for people with heart disease.
Note: Organic natural leaves are the best (N1,500 for 125g).
(d)Â Â Â Lemon Maple Syrup Detox: A safe and natural detox with no preservatives or chemical processes, the lemon detox allows the body to cleanse itself naturally of accumulated toxins and helps the body to normalize its weight. The following are benefits one gets from a Lemon Maple Syrup Detox:
•Weight-loss, if overweight
•Increased energy vitality
•Shinier hair and stronger nails
•Cleaner skin and eyes
•Better digestion
•Create sense of wellbeing.

|Soroptimist International uses the skills and expertise of its members to make a difference in the lives of communities.
Soroptimist International (SI) is a worldwide organisation for individuals in management and professions, working through service projects to advance human rights and the status of women.
The name 'Soroptimist' is derived from the Latin 'soror' meaning sister and 'optima' meaning best. It can thus be interpreted as 'the best for women'.
Globally, the first club was formed in California in the USA in 1921. Now one can go anywhere in the world to find a Soroptimist as the organisation is represented by some 90 000 members in more than 3 000 clubs in over 120 countries.
Each club is based in a geographical area, such as a town or city. These clubs are grouped into regions and grouped further into four federations: Great Britain and Ireland, the Americas, Europe, and the South West Pacific.
Soroptimist South Africa (SISA) falls under Great Britain and Ireland.
In South Africa there are eight clubs and one women's group: Cape of Good Hope, Durban, Grahamstown, Johannesburg, Mafikeng, Port Elizabeth, Pretoria and Tshwane. The women's group is situated in Kimberley.
Our work varies from advocacy – we enjoy consultative status at the United Nations – to fund raising and sponsorships. Soroptimists are working women, artists, doctors, managers, farmers, scientists, accountants – women from all walks of life, all ages and cultures.
We have one thing in common: A desire and commitment to give back to our communities and those around the world.
Our aim
SI acts as a global voice for women through awareness, advocacy and action, its objects are to strive for:
- the advancement of the status of women
- high ethical standards
- human rights for all
- equality, development and peace through international goodwill and understanding, and friendship.
In delivering on its vision to be a global voice for people at risk through awareness, advocacy and action, SISA supports the following programme areas:
- Economic and Social Development;
- Education;
- Environment;
- Health;
- Human Rights and the Status of Women; and
- International Goodwill and Understanding.
We are deeply grateful for the assistance of our friendship links. These are international clubs with which we have special partnerships. They help us with fund raising for specific projects and keep us connected to the global purpose of Soroptimism. We have some friendship links that range from Tokyo to Ireland and Canada.

I started thinking about evergreening my sales process ever since my son was born in 2015 because I wanted more time with him.
I did some things, I forgot to do others and more or less I drifted along being busy as hell with all the things that "needed" to be done
A few hours ago it struck me that I was going forward without knowing the destination...
While I was offering some of my products as evergreen products and I was helping clients with their funnels, I never really put down the GOAL for my business...to run without me (more or less)
So I started working on a spreadsheet that provides the answer, the GOAL: How much should I sell to keep the same lifestyle and stop working ;)
Once you get access to the spreadsheet fill in the yellow cells:
>> Money OUT: payroll, take home money - v. important :), online apps, hosting, etc
>> Money IN: product price, list growth
it tells you how many monthly sales you need to have to stop working and have the same income.
After you get there the rest is scaling and doing what you love (for me it's spending time with my kid and helping my clients without thinking of "I need to make this amount of sales or I'm screwed this month...")
Want it? Just tell me where to send it to you :)
P.S.: This spreadsheet will help you know how much you need to sell on auto-pilot to have your business run itself, on cruise control. Once you get there you can focus on helping your clients, not hustling for new sales.

jom join SECOND LIFE..

Get Started
It's Time to Try Second Life for WorkWe understand that working in Second Life, or any virtual world, is a new experience for most organizations. So, we're here to make it as easy as possible. Here's the step-by-step guide to help you get started.
Confirm Access to Second LifeMany organizations have strict firewall policies that prevent Second Life from running on enterprise or government computers. As a first step, you should contact your IT department and find out whether your firewall will accept a UDP protocol. If not, then we encourage you to work with your technology team to authorize the Second Life stream into your network. If they have questions about Second Life security, point them to this article on security in Second Life.
Additionally, Second Life runs best on newer computers with advanced graphics cards. To learn more about specific system requirements, click here.
Join Second LifeIt's simple and free. Just go to the Join Now page and register. You'll need to choose a standard avatar, an inworld name, and provide basic contact information so that we can confirm your registration by email.
Download the Second Life ViewerThe Second Life Viewer is a small piece of software that is your window into Second Life. You can think of it like your supercharged browser for a 3D environment.
Plug in Your HeadsetSecond Life supports both text chat and spatial voice. So, if you have a headset with a microphone, go ahead and plug it into your computer before you login. Of course, Second Life works just fine if you don't have a headset, but working in Second Life is a much richer, more effective experience when you can and your colleagues can talk to one another.
Login and Begin on Welcome IslandWhen you enter Second Life for the first time, you land on Welcome Island, or an orientation experience. Since this is your first time inworld, understand that it will look and feel unfamiliar to you. You will notice a few things—that you have an avatar and that you might be confused about what to do next. Follow the simple activities on Welcome Island, which are designed to help you get started.
Design Your AvatarAn avatar is a virtual representation of you. Using your basic avatar that you chose during registration as a starting point—you can then change nearly every element of your appearance from body size to hair color to clothing. To learn more about how to customize your avatar, click here. Once you become more familiar with Second Life, you can also purchase new skins, clothes, and accessories to continue to personalize your inworld appearance.
Learn how to Operate Second LifeGetting started in Second Life can be challenging at first, but we've created an easy Quick Start Guide to get you ready to work quickly. Additionally, the best and most current resource for beginners to Second Life is in the Support section.
Attend an event in SLLearn about business use.
Create Your WorkspaceNow that you're comfortable with the Second Life environment, you're probably interested in how your organization can work in Second Life to hold meetings or events, training sessions, or create 3D simulations or prototypes. At Linden Lab, the creators of Second Life, we are creating a series of customized entry-level solutions to meet your needs. In the meantime, we offer you two choices: either you can create your own workspace or you can partner with a Solution Provider to create one for you,

Dressler, Marie
Marie Dressler, 1869–1934, American actress, b. Coburg, Ont., Canada. She appeared on stage and in vaudeville before making her first film, Tillie's Punctured Romance (1914). Although she gained fame as a large, good-natured comedienne, she gave a strong performance as a disreputable old alcoholic in Anna Christie (1930).

Location: This stunning resort sits in an ideal part of Thailand's Andaman sea, surrounded by towering limestone pinnacles seemingly straight out of a pirate movie.
History: Upon its opening less than a decade ago, the Six Senses brand took extreme care not to destroy the beautiful nature on the grounds upon which they were building, and actually built the resort around the nature, so that the resort thrives amongst the forest.
Service: Electric buggies transport guests to and fro, guests are given a welcome glass of champagne at check-in, and each villa has its own personal butler.
This Six Senses property is spread over almost 24 acres of Yao Noi Island amidst the dramatic limestone pinnacles of Thailand's stunning Phang Nga Bay. All villas have infinity pools with sundecks, with sea-view villas overlooking the bay and mountain-view villas nestled in the island's tropical forests. As with all Six Senses properties, the spa is world-class, offering a range wellness treatments and high-end natural products. The Dining Room restaurant offers fine-dining with an emphasis on Italian cuisine, as well as the special Chef's Table private dining experience (maximum eight guests). The Living Room, meanwhile, presents a range of international dishes, specializing in Thai and including tandoori ovens for Indian fare. Six Senses Koh Yao Noi is situated half way between Phuket and Krabi and accessible from either airport. From Phuket, it is a 20-minute drive followed by a 45-minute speedboat ride; from Krabi, it is a 45-minute drive followed by a 20-minute speedboat ride.

CHAMBERSBURG, PA. - Each day in Los Angeles County, Calif., hundreds of inmates go to work inside prison walls doing laundry, making uniforms and printing documents, saving taxpayers about $6 million a year, according to Doug Retig.
Retig, the director of Jail Enterprises for the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, was in Chambersburg Thursday for the Franklin County Jail Industries kickoff breakfast. Retig said Los Angeles can gain from the planning done in Franklin county.
"I'm going to model ours after Franklin County's," he said of the Jail Industries Advisory Committee, made up of representatives from county government, courts, nonprofit agencies and businesses. Retig wants a similar committee to explore industry options to serve businesses and nonprofit groups outside county government.

Courses in arts, humanities and social science disciplines are based in the college, and the research and creative activity undertaken by the college's faculty ranges from cognitive neuropsychology to metal sculpture to literary criticism, among many other specialties.
In addition to courses that are tailored to meet the needs of particular majors, the college offers courses in the university's Core Curriculum – building skills in critical thinking, speaking, and writing as well as in understanding the roots of what makes us human.

Almandite is an aluminum garnet. Almandite garnet also has the same color ranges as Pyorpe garnet. Almandite garnet can be red, orangey red, purplish red or even a strongly reddish purple. Almandite garnet gets its color from iron. Most Almandite garnet tends to be dark in color and is typically used in mass market production jewelry and is affordably priced. Almandite garnet is amongst the most common garnet in the world and is found in Brazil, Mozambique, Myanmar, and Thailand. Due to its dark color, almandite garnet is often cut to make the garnet appear lighter. This means larger faceted almandite garnet is most often cut very flat to allow light to pass through the garnet rather than the almandite garnet absorbing the light giving it an almost black appearance. This shallow cutting results in what commonly referred to as a window. Almandite garnet (and all precious and semi precious gemstones) with a "window" are less desirable than a garnet of a comparable color without the window and are therefore less valuable. Almandite garnet is a 7-7.5 on the Moh's harness scale. This makes it an excellent choice for use in all types of jewelry. Most gemstones, including Almandite garnet, will show some abrasions and minor signs of wear if set in a ring that is worn frequently. Due to its availability and affordability it is often less expensive to replace Almandite garnet than it is to have it re polished. Almandite garnet is suitable for use in garnet rings, garnet bracelets, garnet earrings, and garnet necklaces.

The unicist approach to concepts, pre-concepts and anti-concepts
A concept is a "complex" entity in itself. People who know the concept of something have the knowledge of the possibilities and the evolution of a specific reality.
There are two elements that hinder its apprehension for those who are focused on their personal benefit:
- Being focused on one's needs requires dualistic thinking (implicit in the dialectics of Hegel and Marx). It implies the use of disjunctions and the absence of the necessary conjunctions. Thus the individual is transformed into an observer who cannot emulate a concept in mind because he is not integrated with the external reality. Dualism hinders the apprehension of concepts.
- Genetic behavior inhibits understanding others to profit from them. http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=is-altruism-a-genetic-trait
Pre-concept are conceptual constructions to avoid one's personal risks. Anti-concepts are the entities that destroy concepts. They work like anti-matter deals with matter.
Gamma waves are the waves that appear when an extreme level of consciousness is achieved. We use a reflection process, action-reflection-action, which allows accessing concepts. It has to occur in real value adding actions to be effective.
It is a precise methodology to access gamma brain waves to use concepts and build strategies. We develop this to work in the field of businesses and future scenarios.
Accessing the following links you will see other homologous description of the concept of gamma waves.
Medical Research
Zen Monks
Anti-intuition is an intuitive perception that produces paradoxical results. Paradoxical results imply the self-destruction of the individual or of the goal that wants to be achieved. It is triggered by anti-intelligence.
That is why complexity is only for giving people. Takers can only rationalize concepts but cannot manage accordingly. Giving in business implies giving first and profiting from the counterpart. It is not a utopia.
